The Void Furnace Investigates the Heavenly Pit
"Hello, Young Master Zhang!"
"Young Master Zhang has gone out!"
As Zhang Xuezhou had guessed, Ren Yisheng and the others were indeed waiting outside the B13 Research Institute, even forming two rows.
When Zhang Xuezhou left with the illusory furnace, Ren Yisheng led more than ten special task force members on high-level patrols in North Rehe and shouted.
This style is quite flamboyant, after all, Ren Yisheng and others really don't have any experience in this area.
However, if you find some older people, they can explain the rules of respect for superiors and inferiors in Luofu from ancient times in great detail.
Ren Yisheng doesn't have a deep impression of the past; he probably heard it from some older people, or he was just acting out a scene from a TV drama.
Although the performance was a bit awkward, the effect was quite good.
At least Xu Lu highly regards Zhang Xuezhou's status.
"Make way, make way!"
The dozen or so special task force members shouted from time to time to try to disperse the crowd of onlookers.
The North Rehe Research Institute is no longer a gathering place for struggling researchers with no chance of advancement, but an area created by many powerful and influential young Sequence Holder. In the past two months, a considerable number of top Sequence Holder have even come here.
In other areas, the task force members are a powerful tool for maintaining order, but here they are someone no one dares to offend, and can only shout at the top of their lungs.
"So many people are lining the streets to see you, you must have a good reputation!"
Xu Lu still felt a certain amount of envy towards Zhang Xuezhou.
While this might seem like ruling a remote and impoverished area, achieving this is no easy feat.
He watched the young people gesticulating wildly and shouting, and listened to their repeated cries.
"This isn't my reputation; it's just that I've gained the king's favor and have some means to enhance their strength!"
"Is the sequence lock they're talking about the method your king bestowed upon you?"
"Yes, it's similar to the effect of you releasing a spark; it can boost the strength of your Gene Sequence for a short period of time, making them flock to it!"
Zhang Xuezhou step by step, nodding to everyone with a beaming smile, signaling Ren Yisheng to keep the group away from him, and occasionally exchanging a few words with Xu Lu.
Zhang Xuezhou and his group's display of power after leaving the research institute was secondary; he spent more time taking Xu Lu around North Rehe, especially exploring the epicenter of the explosion.
More than ten years ago, he discovered some unusual stones and found some unusual living organisms inside the stones, but no matter how he investigated, the investigation into the North Rehe fire meteor could not continue.
The Void Furnace, originating from a higher-dimensional world, is clearly more professional in the area of fire meteors. Not only does Ren Yisheng hope to investigate this thoroughly, but Zhang Xuezhou also hopes to investigate the lair of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.
Zhang Xuezhou had listened to what might have been the true voices of Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon while sitting on the tree chair, but he had never actually made contact with them.
Lacking any understanding of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, he had never considered how to deal with them. The solutions he had thought of most in the past were either mental confrontation or a fight to the death, or, some time ago, using A Qiao's feminine charms to torment them. Apart from these, he had no other options.
Without sufficient understanding, without knowing yourself and your enemy, it is impossible to win.
"It's clear that the sequence lock you're talking about is really good!"
"Old Ren should have sent a group to your place to conduct the spark test. If you gain their approval, all the glory that belongs to me will be yours. Our King will also be very happy to see this. You can even charge a fee, just like I do, to facilitate the Gene Sequence cultivation you want to promote!"
"Really?"
"Absolutely!"
As Xu Lu and Zhang Xuezhou walked and talked, he looked at the crowd with a mixture of shock and fervor.
While thinking these young people were incredibly weak, Xu Lu did sense that they were quite wealthy, and some even exclaimed that they had signed contracts and wanted Zhang Xuezhou to arrange for them to quickly learn the sequence lock.
These people were clearly very excited. If it weren't for Ren Yisheng's watchful eye, Xu Lu wouldn't have been surprised if they had rushed up to him.
Thinking of Zhang Xuezhou's mention that the Sequence Lock's function was similar to that of the Fire Seed, and that he himself was very likely to receive the same treatment after gaining recognition, Xu Lu felt a surge of excitement.
The Fire Meteor Creatures occupy a kingdom to acquire resources, and if he could obtain the same treatment through his own abilities, Xu Lu thought it would be perfect.
Would that sequence lock you mentioned work for me?
"As long as you can enter the sequence, it will definitely be useful. I can use the power of the King to help you condense the sequence lock. I heard you fought with Zuo Lianguang. He's the one who received the blessing of the sequence lock not long ago. His strength should be developing quite well!"
"It's really good!"
Xu Lu nodded.
Zuo Lianguang's strength is inferior to Zhou Xin's, and he has significant weaknesses in physical and mental protection. Choosing any one of these weaknesses would be enough to defeat him.
However, it cannot be said that Zuo Lianguang is bad. After all, Zuo Lianguang's power is penetrating both inside and out. His ten claws can easily break through the body protection of most Ferocious Beast, and can even break through the protection of the Wild Serpent. This level is already strong enough.
If Zuo Lianguang could be paired with a suitable support, even the Void Furnace in its normal form might fail, let alone in his current state.
"Can I learn both Zhou Xin's and your sequence development methods at the same time?" Xu Lu asked after thinking for a moment.
"Everyone's body is different, so their developmental sequence will be different. If your physical test results are similar, then you can choose the developmental sequence of me and Zhou Xin," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Who among yourselves are Sequence Holder stronger than Zhou Xin?"
"Our king has six bodyguards, each stronger than Zhou Xin, and some of them could easily defeat Zhou Xin in a single encounter!"
That's really amazing!
Zhang Xuezhou's boasting was so convincing that even Xu Lu took it seriously, while Ren Yisheng to the side, felt his eyelids twitching uncontrollably.
Ren Yisheng had always thought Zhang Xuezhou was honest and reliable, but he never expected that Zhang Xuezhou would boast without batting an eye and spout all sorts of nonsense.
The more you talk, the more loopholes you reveal. If the virtual furnace ever notices this, the trust between you will plummet.
Just thinking about the possible outcomes, and considering the lies Zhang Xuezhou had to tell while he was unconscious, Ren Yisheng couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Zhou Xin had wanted to serve as a bodyguard to the king, but he wasn't selected...
When Zhang Xuezhou used Zhou Xin as a case study, Ren Yisheng felt he couldn't listen anymore.
He could only try his best to keep away the young Sequence Holder were watching or observing nearby, to prevent them from getting close and overhearing the two whispering conversation.
"This is the key area for our research, which we've named Sinkhole No. 2. It's a potential danger that our King once mentioned. If you can find the hidden base, you'll definitely gain the King's favor!"
Once they entered the Class A zone of the North Rehe fireball explosion, Zhang Xuezhou mentioned the fireball, and Ren Yisheng finally felt that things were back to normal.
In any case, the ' Hongku ' stronghold involving Zhang Xuezhou and others may be located there.
If Xu Lu can uncover the secrets here, it will not only reveal the ' Hongku ' family's wealth, Ren Yisheng also believes that Zhang Xuezhou has the potential to return to normal.
