Year 6033 in the Xia calendar
Lin Jiang’s bodyguard leader changed to Chen Yuanhua. This is passing down the family business. Lin Jiang arranged for Old Chen to retire. With his savings, he can comfortably enjoy the rest of his life.
"Old Chen, let’s go to the lab and take a look."
"Sir, please call
Little Chen."
"No, just call
Old Chen. I’m used to it and don’t want to change."
"Alright, Old Chen it is then."
Chen Yuanhua was a bit speechless. Calling him Old Chen made it feel like calling him ‘dad’, it would get confusing.
When Lin Jiang gave the order, Chen Yuanhua arranged the trip imdiately. The necessary defense asures had to be taken. They couldn’t wait for the enemy to co close before fighting back.
After a half-day journey, the group arrived at a secret laboratory owned solely by Lin Jiang. It was very private. Lin Jiang controlled at least twenty experints there, so of which were on a national level.
"Sir."
The head of the laboratory quickly greeted the group.
Lin Jiang nodded and then went deep into the laboratory. On the way, Lin Jiang saw so experintal subjects being held captive. They were living people, but they were also Demon Humans.
During the process of the Demon Humans wiping out the human race, there were hundreds of years. Sotis, small batches of Demon Humans prisoners were captured. Due to the war deaths, many won from the side of the Demon Humans were left behind, leading to a large number of remaining Demon Humans.
Of course, these Demon Humans looked almost the sa as humans on the surface. If there were any obvious signs of being Demon Humans, they would be executed. Like the witch-hunting era, the extermination activities against Demon Humans lasted for about a thousand years.
"Are we sure these are all real Demon Humans?"
"Sir, can you make sure that there is not a single pure human?"
"Yes."
Lin Jiang nodded in agreent. In the laws of the Alliance Three Countries, there are rules against catching Demon Humans, which seems legal. But, we shouldn’t talk about the morals too much.
Along the way, the lab leader kept updating Lin Jiang on their business. Their lab mainly researches genetic dicines, which co from the research foundation in Qingyun.
"The genetic dicines from Qingyun are already in their fifth generation. Our lab is similar to theirs. Through these dicines, an ordinary person can beco as strong as an Innate Martial Artist, but only on paper. Real combat skills still need training."
"Are the results consistent?"
"Yes, we’ve conducted dozens of experints already."
"What about side effects?"
"We can’t rule that out yet. The first-generation biohumans in Qingyun are aging rapidly. One of them is 35 years old, took the genetic dicine 13 years ago, and now he’s like a regular person in their sixties – losing strength and speed. He’s expected to die within five years."
"Our fifth-generation dicine has greatly reduced the impact of side effects, but we can’t eliminate them entirely. So of us think that Qingyun’s research direction is correct, but maybe their source of genes is wrong. The genes of Demon Humans are not significantly stronger. Perhaps Zhou Liao’s side has the potential for a breakthrough."
"Please continue, don’t keep us in suspense."
"Yes, sir, we have obtained a blood sample from Zhou Liao, from which the extracted genetic sample is more powerful than that of the Demon Human."
"Ancient figure"
"Yes"
"Does Zhou Liao have similar research?"
Lin Jiang said solemnly, "The genetic potion research on Qingyun is based on the Demon Human genes, and the strength of the Demon Human cannot compare to cultivators. Although the two cultivators from Zhou Liao have lost their cultivation, they still have a good foundation."
Zhou Liao has conducted nurous physical examinations on them, with many blood samples, so of which Lin Jiang obtained through ans.
"Probably not, maybe it’s done secretly. Those two ancient figures value Zhou Liao greatly, their drug research is going smoothly, using different thods from Qingyun, but the results won’t be much different."
"Are we doing drug refinent?"
"Yes, but progress is slow. This area is based on the Alchemist industry, and actually, the most Alchemists are in Qingyun, we have fewer in Huaxia."
The leader said that modern dicine in this world has two main sources: one is from cultivators who transford from Alchemy, and the other is from the dical skills of Demon Humans. A thousand years ago, the dical skills of Demon Humans were very powerful.
Among the Alliance Three Countries, there are the most cultivators left by Qingyun, who are very skilled in Alchemy. Huaxia cos next. So, after entering modern tis, Huaxia absorbed more of the dical skills of Demon Humans. Their foundation is not as strong as Qingyun’s.
"Go and recruit people. I know that Qingyun has many alchemy families. Offer high prices to recruit them."
Lin Jiang said directly that he is actually an Alchemist himself, although not highly skilled. He is not able to conduct research on his own, so he plans to recruit people. With money, he is not afraid of not finding skilled individuals.
Later, Lin Jiang observed the results of the experints. So of the test subjects were undergoing training. Currently, they were performing well. These test subjects were volunteers brought in by Lin Jiang, who were working hard in exchange for the money he paid.
After inspecting the laboratory, everyone left. Lin Jiang noticed that Chen Yuanhua seed hesitant to speak and said, "Old Chen, just say whatever you have to say. There’s no one else here."
"Sir, I’ll be straightforward. I’m concerned about your safety."
"Oh, go ahead and share your thoughts."
"As technology advances, individual strength is becoming weaker. Even Martial Saints are affected. Two years ago, a small country in the western part of Shen Continent tried to break free from Qingyun’s control. Qingyun sent a biochemical special forces team to attack. A small team openly killed their president. It was a legitimate assassination."
In February this year, in the Ying Continent, a wealthy man was killed by a bio-special forces unit in tight security. The bio-enhanced soldiers with modern high-tech weapons were too powerful. If they suddenly attacked, even I wouldn’t stand a chance.
"They can do it, why can’t you?"
"Sir, it’s not as simple as that. Those bio-special forces may not seem like much to us, but when ard with weapons, such as the Grim Reaper Quick Cannon weighing only half a ton, the bio-enhanced soldiers can easily outmatch us. I can defeat a person, but I cannot withstand a cannonball.
"Moreover, we are shields, and the developnt of shields is always a step behind spears. For example, if a few executioners were to launch cannonballs from a kiloter away, our bulletproof vehicle wouldn’t stand a chance."
"You have a point, but you overlooked one thing."
"What is it?"
"Balance and the fear of death. Everyone fears death. If they have the ability to kill , I also have the ability to kill them, creating a balance. That’s why I’ve been stealing technology in recent years. I don’t do this for money but for balance. If they dare send soone to kill
today, I can also send soone to kill them. As leaders, assassination is a lowly thod. If everyone keeps killing each other, it’ll be a losing situation."
Lin Jiang said that in recent years, he has been like a thief, stealing technology everywhere, keeping himself strong.
For leaders, assassination is indeed a despicable thod that can easily lead to mutual hatred. If they have to wake up every day worrying about defending against enemy assassinations, how can they enjoy life?
"Sir…"
"It’s okay, it’s great that you have this idea, I support you. If you want to make any changes, you can."
Lin Jiang nodded. He didn’t want to discourage Chen Yuanhua’s enthusiasm. The ergence of various new technologies has influenced many things. Lin Jiang couldn’t think so thoroughly, it’s better to let these professionals handle it.
After hearing Lin Jiang’s words, Chen Yuanhua took it very seriously. When he went back, he started researching, and asked many relevant people for help. In less than a month, they ca up with a new security plan.
"Sir, many years ago you implented an offensive security policy. It involved collecting information from various sources that could be harmful to you, analyzing it, and taking action if there was a threat to you."
Initially, this tactic was very effective. We intercepted dozens of actions against you through various channels. But over the years, we have been getting less information. I don’t think our enemies have decreased but rather have beco smarter. They may be using undetectable ans, waiting for a chance to strike a fatal blow against you."
"So, I found soone to predict various dangerous data models specifically, the solution we are taking…"
Chen Yuanhua patiently explained his plan, Lin Jiang nodded frequently in approval.
Chen Yuanhua’s plan is actually not complicated. In summary, it is to list out Lin Jiang’s enemies and potential enemies, monitor and observe them, and eliminate the danger at an early stage.
"Prism"
After listening to Chen Yuanhua, Lin Jiang thought, "Isn’t this the Prism Project? Now Lin Jiang has beco a major villain, siding with evil."
