Chapter 969 A Somewhat Useless Return Gift
At this point, two blazing lights ignited in Huang Gu's eyes.
The next moment, his fingers clicked rapidly on the arm-mounted computer as he said excitedly, "The aliens' technology is truly advanced. This laser gun has a low manufacturing cost, a larger magazine capacity, and superior continuous firing capability. Moreover, it's a pure energy weapon, not easily affected by the environment or climate. With this data, I can invent even more powerful energy weapons. Heh heh, when the time comes, I'll show those foolish aliens just how amazing human intelligence can be."
As one of the most intelligent people in the world, Huang Gu has always been deeply troubled by the alien invasion that attempted to destroy humanity.
In his view, a civilization that hasn't even built a time machine, no matter how powerful, is nothing more than the result of the accumulation of time.
Given enough time to develop, humanity will surely possess a civilization even more glorious than that of the X-planet inhabitants.
Of course, this is all predicated on humanity being able to withstand the X-planet's plan to exterminate humanity; otherwise, it's all just empty talk.
"Alright, since the Heavenly Gang Organization is being so sensible, we can't be stingy either."
After confirming the authenticity of the laser gun manufacturing technology with Huang Gu, Chen Fang nodded vigorously and said loudly, "You Keliang, you rest for a day and set off tomorrow to discuss the alliance with Qin Chong. Oh, and take that girl and all the mutated beasts we captured with us. Qin Chong has the ability to tame mutated beasts, so let's be generous and give them all to them."
"Ah, Minister, I have no objection to you sending the mutated beast, but are you going to send that girl over too?"
Upon hearing Chen Fang's words, You Keliang was shocked and said incredulously, "Minister, that girl has the soul of an X-planet inside her. If we just hand her over like this, won't we be making a huge mistake?"
"Nonsense, that girl has been in our hands for so long, what have you gotten from her? I really don't understand how those people in Kyoto got those documents from her back then."
Chen Fang shook his head dejectedly and said, "Since that's the case, let's hand this girl over and see if they can get any information from her. Anyway, the manufacturing technology for a laser gun is enough to break even for us. Besides, as far as I know, Qin Zhong is the kind of person who reciprocates kindness. If you treat him well, he'll treat you even better. I refuse to believe that after we hand these things over to him, he won't give me something in return..."
"Oh my god, Minister, this is just a return gift..." Hearing Chen Fang's words, You Keliang rubbed his head helplessly.
Although he was shrewd in important matters, he was also reckless and acted like a mountain bandit in trivial matters.
However, just as Chen Fang said, although the items sent out looked very valuable, they were actually useless to the Chongqing military government, and it would be a pity to throw them away.
Rather than leaving them at the base and wasting manpower and resources guarding them, it's better to send them all out to prove our sincerity.
Even if Qin Chong is reluctant to give us Destruction One, it would be worthwhile to give us a few of those vines that can lock up giant crocodiles...
……
Meanwhile, near the Yiyang settlement, inside a hidden mine.
Qin Zhong was unaware that Chen Fang was about to give him a generous gift. At this moment, he was in a silver mine under the control of the base, continuing to familiarize himself with the power of the domain.
Ever since witnessing the battle between Xiao Yibai and Arrogance, his desire for power has grown even stronger.
Therefore, after resolving the hydroelectric power station issue and returning to the settlement, he immediately instructed the Mirror Demon to open a passage and bring Chu Jiu, who had been diligently researching in Songcheng, to Yiyang.
After all, this giant crocodile was far too ferocious, and Qin Zhong dared not leave the research to Hu Meng alone; it would be troublesome if something went wrong. After Chu Jiu arrived, he went to the silver mine alone to continue strengthening himself.
Of course, before leaving, Qin Zhong also did some things inside the giant crocodile to restrict its ability to move.
Otherwise, I'm afraid that no sooner had he left than the crocodile caused chaos in the settlement, and at the very least, the research institute that Hu Meng had worked so hard to build would definitely be lost.
"Congeal!"
After painstakingly resonating and synchronizing the metal elements within his body with the external elements, Qin Zhong half-squatted down and slammed his right hand heavily onto the ground.
With a soft shout, more than a dozen huge silver spears shot up from the ground, instantly destroying the entire ground.
Looking at the silver spear gleaming brilliantly in the sunlight, Qin Chong smiled slightly and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. Before he mastered elemental resonance, he really found it hard to understand what it felt like to draw on the power of nature.
Although he hasn't mastered elemental resonance to a high level yet, he is steadily improving through daily practice.
Just like now, although he took advantage of the geographical advantage of the silver mine, the attack he launched was indeed much stronger than before.
Just like these dozen or so sharp silver spears, each seven or eight meters tall and as thick as an adult's arm, he was confident that each one could pierce through the hard skin of the crocodile wood.
If he were to fight Crocodile Wood again, Qin Zhong was confident he could kill him within a minute.
This is the terrifying aspect of wielding elemental power.
"Squeak..."
Sensing that Qin Chong had finished unleashing his power, Little V, who was perched on his shoulder, slowly opened its eyes and then yawned. Ever since it devoured the crystal core and evolved, this little guy had become increasingly sleepy.
Unless there's something to do, it, like the golden eagle, almost never likes to stay in the living space. The only difference is that the golden eagle likes to soar through the sky and often disappears for ten days or half a month at a time.
For example, this time, Jin Ying had long since disappeared, and Qin Zhong hadn't seen it for a long time.
However, Qin Zhong didn't care. After all, the Golden Eagle was also very powerful, and it could fly. Even if it encountered a powerful mutated beast, it could still escape even if it was no match for it.
Compared to the active Golden Eagle, Little V preferred to sleep on Qin Zhong's body. Qin Zhong had previously found it in the way and left it aside, but the clingy little guy would sneak up on him again the next moment.
After several attempts, Qin Chong gave in to the persistent little guy and let it sleep on him.
"What's wrong, little guy? Are you awake?" Qin Chong rubbed Little V's head, took out a purplish-red crystal core, and placed it in front of Little V.
Because of its remote location, he often encountered some mutated beasts that didn't know their place. This level-four purplish-red crystal core, for example, was contributed by a mutated rat the size of a calf.
Rats are indeed among the most resilient creatures. Mutated rats are common in the post-apocalyptic world, so Qin Zhong didn't take them seriously.
Apart from the first few times when he captured them alive and sent them to the research institute, Qin Zhong basically just killed them all the time after that.
