The Soul Guidance Pistol Must Be Rejected
Tang San gripped the Soul Guidance Communicator in his hand.
He felt he had been shocked enough times today, yet he still could not help marveling at the power of soul guidance technology.
A Soul Guidance Communicator like this had tremendous uses.
On the battlefield, it meant teammates could exchange intelligence.
Even friends could chat remotely through this Soul Tool.
If Xiao Wu had this Soul Tool now, wouldn't he be able to chat with her whenever he wanted?
Then they would not have had to go so long without speaking like this.
"Boss Chu, do you have any more of these Soul Guidance Communicators?" Tang San wanted to get one for Xiao Wu.
"You want to give it to Xiao Wu, don't you?" Chu Feng revealed a subtle smile.
Tang San and Xiao Wu really were a shippable couple.
"Mm-hmm." Tang San scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed.
Why did it seem as though everyone knew about their relationship?
He had clearly hidden it so well.
"This thing is expensive. Even if you join my organization, you'll still have to pay a price," Chu Feng teased.
"Then what kind of compensation would I get?"
Chu Feng's words reminded Tang San that he had yet to ask about his compensation after joining Chu Feng's organization.
Given Boss Chu's generosity, it probably would not be too bad.
"Here, everyone starts at the bottom, no matter who joins."
"If you join, you'll be a grade-ten researcher, earning 3,000 Gold Soul Coins a month."
"Three thousand a month!"
Hearing that figure, Tang San's eyes widened slightly.
He was far too poor and needed a lot of Gold Soul Coins.
A grade-ten researcher earned 3,000 Gold Soul Coins in just one month.
Boss Chu truly lived up to his reputation for generosity.
With compensation like this, he would join even without his friendship with Boss Chu.
Who would turn their nose up at so much money?
"And this Soul Guidance Communicator costs one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins." Chu Feng tossed the Soul Guidance Communicator in his hand into the air.
Hearing the price, Tang San clicked his tongue, his heart trembling.
One hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins. That was far too expensive.
"Boss Chu, this thing is so expensive. I can't afford it."
Tang San looked at the Soul Guidance Communicator in his hand, wondering whether he should simply exchange it for money.
One hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins would buy him plenty of materials.
"Expensive? If you think it's expensive, have you ever stopped to think about why you aren't working hard to earn money?" Chu Feng uttered a pearl of wisdom.
"Then I won't buy one for now." Tang San decided not to buy one for Xiao Wu just yet.
If the Soul Guidance Communicator had been a little cheaper, he could have taken an advance on his salary to buy it.
At one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins, he would have to wait.
Perhaps it would become cheaper later.
"Don't worry. Xiao Wu has a Soul Guidance Communicator too," Chu Feng said with a smile.
"What? Xiao Wu has one too? How did she get one?"
Tang San looked at the Soul Guidance Communicator in his hand, then raised his head to look at Chu Feng, his eyes full of confusion and shock.
According to Chu Feng, only people who joined his organization would have a Soul Guidance Communicator.
When had Xiao Wu joined Chu Feng's organization?
How come he knew nothing about it?
Chu Feng smiled at Tang San's expression.
"When we were in the Star Dou Great Forest, I invited Xiao Wu to become one of us."
"Naturally, she has a Soul Guidance Communicator."
He was already working with the Sky Azure Bull Python, so naturally, he considered Xiao Wu part of his organization.
He had also had his subordinates give Xiao Wu a Soul Guidance Communicator.
"Then can I contact her now?" Tang San gripped the Soul Guidance Communicator and asked somewhat urgently.
He had not seen Xiao Wu for many days and missed her terribly.
Moreover, with no news of Xiao Wu all this time, he worried that she might have encountered some danger.
After all, that was the Star Dou Great Forest, an extremely dangerous place.
If this Soul Guidance Communicator could reach Xiao Wu,
he could find out how she had been doing.
"Of course. I'll give you her contact information."
With that, Chu Feng sent his spiritual power into the Soul Guidance Communicator and transmitted Xiao Wu's contact channel to Tang San's Soul Guidance Communicator.
Tang San's Soul Guidance Communicator began to vibrate.
He infused it with Soul Power, then sent his spiritual power inside.
"Xiao Wu." Tang San joyfully selected Xiao Wu's avatar.
Three seconds passed without a response.
"Why isn't she answering?" Tang San paced back and forth, poking the Soul Guidance Communicator in his hand.
Chu Feng held his forehead and shook his head slightly, speechless. "Don't be so impatient. We're too far from the Star Dou Great Forest. The base stations our organization set up need some time to relay the signal."
To make the Soul Guidance Communicators easier to use, they had secretly built signal base stations in various places.
However, the technology these base stations used was relatively primitive.
If the distance was too great, transmitting a signal took some time.
Sure enough, after another few minutes, Xiao Wu's voice came from Tang San's Soul Guidance Communicator.
"Third Brother, is that you?"
Her tone was very urgent.
"It's me."
"Xiao Wu, are you all right?"
Although Xiao Wu's voice was perfectly clear, Tang San still pressed the Soul Guidance Communicator tightly against his ear.
Chu Feng shook his head. These two would probably be on the phone for ages.
"You two chat for now. I'm going to take care of some things."
"But keep an eye on whether the Soul Guidance Communicator has enough Soul Power left."
Tang San did not reply, merely nodding before continuing to chat softly with Xiao Wu.
He really had forgotten his brother the moment he got a wife.
Chu Feng stopped paying attention to their sweet nothings and strolled through the underground base.
A little over ten minutes later, he entered a building bearing the words "Soul Guidance Technology Research and Development Institute."
"Leader."
As soon as he entered, a researcher dressed in white approached Chu Feng and saluted, then handed him a notebook.
Chu Feng took the notebook from the researcher. It recorded the institute's recent research and development progress.
Even with the Complete Explanation of Soul Guidance Technology provided by the system, thoroughly digesting soul guidance technology would still take a great deal of time.
It was like having Elder Qian's notes right there, yet still being unable to learn from them.
If the Complete Explanation of Soul Guidance Technology provided by the system had not been detailed enough, they probably would not even have scratched the surface of soul guidance technology by now.
At present, he had no exceptionally gifted talent in soul guidance technology under him, so they could only gnaw through it slowly.
He carefully leafed through a few pages, then suddenly stopped.
"Why has development of this Soul Guidance Pistol stopped?"
In the notebook, the institute had marked the research into the Soul Guidance Pistol with a stop symbol.
What kind of way was this to handle things?
He had long since established a rule: any changes to research had to be explained to him.
"Leader, the institute's deputy director ordered it stopped." The researcher lowered his head, not daring to look at Chu Feng.
He knew this matter had crossed Chu Feng's bottom line.
"The reason!"
Chu Feng snapped the research notebook shut and silently watched the researcher.
"The deputy director said that if this Soul Guidance Pistol were developed, the changes it brought would be too great."
"The world as it is now cannot yet accept a weapon like this."
"Absurd. Get Wang Er here."
Wang Er was the deputy director he had appointed to the institute.
He had once been only a little beggar. After training him, they discovered he had a talent for soul guidance technology, and later appointed him deputy director of the research and development institute.
