Linghu Mingde followed Si Malin and Xie Qing, swiftly making his way into the inner parts of the research institute.

The Rui Fang Biological Prosthetics Research Institute where they were located already occupied a vast expanse of land, covering a whopping 100,000 square meters, with 40 floors, and taking up nearly 1/30 of the area of this abandoned military base.

The institute’s interior was also heavily fortified. Thanks to the high taxes paid by Lin Rui, he had recently obtained three enhanced troop security licenses, granting him the authority to organize three National Guard enhanced troops.

These three enhanced troops belonged to the National Guard system, with serial numbers 9D4510, 9D4511, and 9D4512, responsible for the daily security of the biological research institute and the docks. They are also assessed and supervised by the National Guard and are under the command of the National Guard during wartime.

Lin Rui had already recruited over 8,200 elite military veterans from East Asia and the Ninth Base City’s Armed Police Forces. He had also purchased a large quantity of second-hand equipment, including Combat Mechas, firepower support armored vehicles, self-propelled artillery, and magnetic levitation tanks as a full set of heavy equipment, which are currently undergoing integration training.

While the personnel had not yet reached the full complement of 12,600 people, preliminary organization had been completed.

East Asia’s military veterans had one quality that particularly pleased Lin Rui: their discipline was exceptionally good, and orders were carried out without question.

Although these soldiers were not qualified to become Alien Walkers, they had all undergone extremely rigorous training, possessed solid tactical literacy, and had clean and reliable records. It was expected that their overall combat effectiveness would exceed the Armed Police Forces and reach the standards of a 6A+ level.

Lin Rui’s personal studio now had not the 16 squads Fang Ranran had guessed, but only 4 squads of 6S.

This was because the 15 previously formed 6S squads had all been assigned to serve as officers in the three National Guard enhanced troops.

These people, all retired officers, had rich military experiences. By arranging them to serve as the backbone, a reliable officer system could quickly be built, allowing the three enhanced security troops to form combat power as soon as possible.

So currently, Lin Rui’s forces only retained 4 newly formed 6S squads.

In addition, the Alien Company had arranged for 2,800 Alien Walkers to come from Forest.

They stationed their true bodies and Sleeping Cabins here, and also possessed numerous heavy equipment, with their overall strength equivalent to three 6SS heavy-armored enhanced battalions.

However, the main defense of this research institute and docks was still managed by defense batteries and Combat Robots.

There were a total of 400 type 5 Red Spiders, 30 strengthened 6SS type Red Spiders, and 6 likewise heavily enhanced 7SS type Red Spiders.

They patrolled back and forth within this abandoned military base, becoming the guardian deities of the institute and docks.

There were also automatic batteries that Lin Rui had purchased from the Jinhao Company, including thousands of 20mm ‘Gatling Buddhas’, two hundred 40mm ‘Universal Salvation Tathagata’, and twenty 130mm heavy six-barrel ‘Universal Salvation Tathagatas’.

The models were all type six or seven, and these batteries were densely and widely distributed, forming an extremely formidable firepower network.

There were also Rune Formations that Lin Rui personally designed, which were laid out by Lin Guangming and Wang Yinyue.

Linghu Mingde observed quietly as he walked inside.

A hint of appreciation appeared in his eyes; Lin Rui really lived up to his reputation. Even with such a rapid expansion, he could still maintain order and method within his base.

And whether it was the defense troops or the Alien Walkers they passed along the way, their spirit and energy were very impressive.

—This must be due to Lin Rui’s skillful medical techniques, which had gathered a large number of military talents.

The elite of the Ninth Base City probably had no idea that within the city, a new power with formidable combat strength was rapidly arising.

They soon arrived at the third experimental observation room, where a dazzling figure joyfully threw herself into Lin Rui’s arms.

It turned out to be a Sky Extreme Star woman with an ethereal and elegant temperament, her delicate and beautiful features like fine porcelain, with skin white and smooth as milk under the sun.

Although she stood around 2.1 meters tall, she clung to Lin Rui’s chest affectionately, like a little bird, rubbing her face against him and cooing ‘gugu gugu’.

That was the Sky Extreme Star language, known as Luojing’s Elegant Melody, meaning ‘brother’.

Seeing this, Fang Ranran couldn’t help but frown slightly, and Linghu Mingde also frowned, “President Lin, may I ask who this is?”

“This is the Alien of my sister, Lin Yi,” Lin Rui stroked Lin Yi’s head, his eyes showing a doting and helpless smile: “She’s here for the final genetic adjustments and will soon descend on Sky Extreme Star.”

In fact, Lin Rui didn’t intend to meet Lin Yi this time.

Although the people here were all very reliable, either his close subordinates or his staunch allies, Lin Rui wasn’t planning to expose all his secrets to them.

Especially now, Lin Yi’s appearance is linked to her Alien identity.

However, once this girl sensed him, she ran out of the laboratory on her own.

Lin Yi is truly a 6SSS+ level assassin, and although she has amnesia, it seems she has retained many instincts.

Just now, Lin Rui couldn’t help but admire her as she broke through the laboratory’s security system, which of course, was also related to the high level of access Lin Rui granted her.

Since she ran out herself, Lin Rui had no choice but to let it be.

He couldn’t even explain why he was so good to Lin Yi; according to logic, there should be no emotional foundation between them, and helping Lin Yi was merely out of obligation.

Yet, Lin Rui naturally treated Lin Yi as if she were his own little sister, doting on her as if she were the apple of his eye.

“So that’s how it is.” A strange gleam flashed in Linghu Mingde’s eyes.

He had conducted a thorough investigation into Lin Rui’s background, and he knew the identities of Lin Yi and Lin Xi – they were the most powerful biological weapons created by the Longevity Association this century.

But Lin Rui’s little sister Lin Yi had disappeared years ago, neither seen alive nor found dead. So, she has been found now?

Speaking of which, the Abyss fluctuation that erupted within Ninth Base City on the night of the decisive battle between the Linghu Family and Jinhao Group also seemed to be related to pain and despair.

Fang Ranran’s face regained its smile as she waved to Lin Yi: “Hello, Yi, my name is Fang Ranran, and I’m a friend of Lin Rui.”

Lin Yi looked up at Fang Ranran, blinked her big eyes, and then buried her head back in Lin Rui’s embrace.

Fang Ranran didn’t take it personally; she just made a mental note of Lin Yi’s appearance.

From seeing Lin Yi’s pure, infant-like gaze and hearing her awkward speech, coupled with her abnormal attachment to Lin Rui, Fang Ranran knew something was off.

She thought that if there was a chance to meet this girl on Sky Extreme Star in the future, she could learn more about the situation.

The group then entered the laboratory, where Si Malin pointed to the Armament floating in a small culture vessel and smiled: “This is the Armament we’ve created. On the left is the artificial meridians system ‘Skywalker’ that I led, and on the right is the SSS+ grade Armament ‘Skywalker Limitless’ developed by Professor Xie Qing.”

He shook his head with a helpless expression: “Regrettably, these two pieces of Armament were actually created by top-tier Symbiotic Masters that Mr. Lin hired after Professor Xie Qing and I designed the blueprints. Our research institute’s technical capabilities are not yet up to making them. If we want to popularize them on a large scale, we still must reduce material costs and continue to optimize the structure and manufacturing steps.”

Linghu Mingde mused that popularization had nothing to do with him.

He leaned over the two culture vessels, looking at them intently with a gaze full of appreciation and admiration.

Not only did Linghu Mingde possess powerful vision, but he also knew his stuff. He could see the extremely perfect flesh-and-blood structure inside the two pieces of Armament and the near-perfect circulatory system.

“Are you sure these two pieces of Armament can be used? Are they of super-perfect grade?”

“100% sure! In fact, the artificial meridians system ‘Skywalker’ that I led has gone through 7 versions. This set’s data is the most ideal and perfect.”

Si Malin pointed to a ‘Biological Experiment Clone’ in the adjacent operating room: “Next, I will implant these two pieces of Armament into this type-8 ‘Biological Human’ to perform more detailed tests.”

Linghu Mingde nodded in understanding; he knew that some laboratory-made experimental Armament was much stronger than the mass-produced versions.

These Armament were often not cost-conscious and were made according to the most optimum and potent technological routes envisioned by the researchers, so even the materials used were incomparable to the mass-produced versions.

Linghu Mingde stood up with a strange gleam in his eyes: “Since you’re so confident, there’s no need to use a ‘Biological Experiment Clone.’ Implant them directly in me, to avoid the extra step and hassle!”

Those following him immediately made a buzzing noise.

Wang Tianwu and Fei Yunlai exchanged surprised glances.

They, too, recognized that the two pieces of Armament in front of them were nothing short of perfect works of art, but was this old man really so confident without waiting for the final test?

However, Linghu Mingde had confidence in himself. He was a veteran sufferer of Armament Syndrome for many years; even if there was an issue with the Armament, he could handle it.

He turned his head towards Si Malin: “I’ve long heard of Professor Sima’s reputation. Some say you are one of the top ten prosthetic doctors of this century, specialized in research on the body’s natural meridian systems. How about you join Mr. Lin and help me with this surgical implantation?”

Si Malin was taken aback for a moment, but then the corners of his mouth lifted slightly: “Of course, it’s possible!”

Next to him, Xie Qing heard this and couldn’t help but show a look of envy. He, too, wanted to personally perform this epoch-making Armament surgery, but in terms of Armament technology, he truly could not compare to Si Malin.
