The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 897 Academician Yang Lan
"Second value?"

Wu Meng raised an eyebrow and looked at Shu Zhanyue.

Shu Zhanyue smiled: "Do you know Huo Guodong?"

Wu Meng was taken aback: "Huo Guodong?"

Of course he knew that this was the leader of the Spiritual Energy Sect. When Liang Yuan attacked the Water God Sect, he directly wiped out most of the Water God Sect's experts.

Even Pei Yuanhu escaped this calamity by hiding in the military camp.

When this news came out, it almost scared the people of the two major religions, the Earth Mother Cult and the Psionic Cult, to death.

Shi Lianhai packed his bags and ran away that very day, and although the Spiritual Energy Cult was mysterious, there was no further news about it afterward.

They've most likely run away with the money.

But what does Shu Zhanyue mean by mentioning the leader of the Spiritual Energy Cult at this moment?
He looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.

"Psionic Cult Leader, how could I not know? Ever since Liang Yuan destroyed the Water God Cult, it seems the Psionic Cult has been silent for a long time. What, do you know where Huo Guodong is?"

Shu Zhanyue smiled and said, "He is in the Divine Kingdom."

"what?"

Wu Meng was immediately taken aback and somewhat surprised.

Huo Guodong actually went to the Divine Kingdom?
“I have some connection with him. If I go to the Kingdom of God this time, I can contact him and then I will naturally have a place to stand.”

Shu Zhanyue smiled, clearly satisfied with Wu Meng's reaction.

Wu Meng frowned and asked, "How come you, a high-ranking member of the Earth Mother Cult, have such a good relationship with the leader of the Spiritual Energy Cult?"

Shu Zhanyue smiled but did not answer the question directly, saying, "This is my personal matter, and I can't tell you about it."

"In short, I will definitely have a place in the Divine Kingdom. If you and I go together, you will have a lot of leverage with this floating island in your hands, and you can definitely enter the high-level circle of the Divine Kingdom."

After pondering for a moment, Wu Meng finally smiled and said, "You've convinced me. I agree."

Shu Zhanyue immediately smiled, extended her hand, and said, "Then it's a pleasure to cooperate?"

Wu Meng looked at her outstretched hand, and finally extended his own, smiling as he said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."

……

On Arc Light Island, Liang Yuan enters Jin Shirong's harem.

This place is teeming with beautiful women of all kinds.

There are beauties of all ages, from thirteen or fourteen to thirty or forty.

Lolita, mature woman, young woman, girl next door, college girl, charming wife—all types are represented.

Looking at these women, Liang Yuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Jin Shirong really knows how to have fun."

This enormous harem probably has over a hundred members.

Even if you take one a day, it would still take more than a hundred days to keep up.

Even so, Jin Shirong was not satisfied and actually hid his true form on Minghu Island, which was known for its chaos, and established a small family there.

Damn it, has he had enough of being a big shot and is now experiencing the life of an ordinary person?
Liang Yuan cursed inwardly. At this moment, Wang Ling'er couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Liang, what should we do with these women?"

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Ask them if they have any family members left. If they do, give them some supplies and points and send them away."

"If they don't have family, we'll find them a job and settle them down."

"Now that we have more land, we are always short of people, so we don't have to worry about not having a place to put them."

Wang Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief. She was worried that Liang Yuan might lose control and do something indecent when he saw so many beautiful women.

However, it turned out that she was overthinking things; Mr. Liang was an upright and honest man.

Her gaze toward Liang Yuan softened considerably.

"Yes, I'll have someone arrange it right away."

"Let's not talk about that. Didn't you say you'd take me to see something? Where is it?"

"We're almost there, please follow me."

Wang Yu'er led the way, and soon the two of them arrived at the depths of the palace, one after the other.

But inside this deep palace, a huge machine was in operation.

The entire machine resembled a giant training room, with numerous rune devices on the outside.

Not far away, there was a device that looked like an energy source in operation, and a large number of energy stones inside were glowing.

"This is it!"

Wang Ling'er smiled, and at the same time she turned around and waved to a woman in a white coat not far away.

This woman was quite old, probably in her fifties, with noticeable gray hair and fine lines on her face.

There was a group of people around her, men and women, all wearing the same white coats.

Upon seeing their attire, Liang Yuan immediately understood, and a look of surprise appeared on his face as he asked, "What's this?"

He already had a guess that this was most likely Jin Shirong's R&D team.

Sure enough, Wang Ling'er said with a smile, "Mr. Liang, these people are from the R&D department of Mengya. This is Ms. Yang Lan, the head of the R&D department of Mengya."

As she spoke, fearing that Liang Yuan might not take it seriously enough, she whispered, "Mr. Liang, Ms. Yang Lan's identity is extraordinary. Before the apocalypse, she was a renowned genetics expert in my country and a researcher holding a position at the Chinese Academy of Sciences."

"She has led many national-level projects, many of which are related to bioengineering."

"The machine in front of us is the one that she and her team developed. It is also a gene recombination cultivation device used exclusively by the senior management of Sprout."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan immediately became serious.

This machine in front of me is actually a gene recombination cultivation device?

Liang Yuan looked at the middle-aged woman named Yang Lan.

Yang Lan looked at Liang Yuan with a hint of awe and said in a trembling voice, "Hello, hello."

She was a researcher who, although she had awakened supernatural abilities, was not skilled in combat. Early in the Great Flood, she had witnessed the wickedness of humanity and knew that times had changed.

Those with superpowers who have mastered violence can impose their will on the weak without restraint.

Especially in the nascent stage.

Therefore, despite her noble status, Jin Shirong valued her highly.

However, the current budding sprout is no longer the one controlled by Jin Shirong.

She didn't know what abilities this young man who had defeated Jin Shirong possessed.

But she knew very well that things had changed for the budding plant.

She has no choice but to listen to this young man now, otherwise...

Thinking of this, she shuddered.

The dark experiences at the very beginning of the apocalypse kept replaying in her mind.

Therefore, she felt fear towards the young man in front of her, rather than admiration.

Just like her fear of Kim Se-young.

Looking at the woman in front of him, who was over fifty years old, Liang Yuan's expression became solemn.

He immediately extended his hand and said sincerely, "Hello, Academician Yang, I am Liang Yuan, the leader of Yangshan Refuge. It is a pleasure to meet you."

"We also have our own R&D department in Yangshan. Currently, Professor Li Hanzhong is in charge of our R&D work in Yangshan. I wonder if you know him?"

The scientific community is actually a circle, and it's narrower than most people imagine.

Generally speaking, well-known scientists know each other to some extent, or at least have heard of each other.

Of course, this might not be the case for those in different fields.

Liang Yuan was unaware of whether Li Hanzhong, a bigwig in the shipbuilding field, knew about the academician from the Chinese Academy of Sciences standing before him.

Yang Lan was taken aback upon hearing this, and looked up in surprise: "Li Hanzhong? Is that the guy from the School of Shipbuilding at Linjiang University?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, you know him?"

Yang Lan immediately laughed: "Yes, I know him. Professor Li Hanzhong has applied to become a national academician several times, wanting to enter the Chinese Academy of Sciences. I've met him several times."

Liang Yuan laughed and said, "I see. Indeed, capable people associate with other capable people."

"You flatter me, you flatter me," Yang Lan quickly said modestly.

Liang Yuan asked, "Academician Yang, what is this machine for? Could you tell me about it?"

"Of course, of course."

Yang Lan quickly began to introduce the huge machine in front of Liang Yuan.

"This is an auxiliary training room. Its main function is to identify specific genes and increase the concentration of supernatural energy."

"Identify specific genes? How is that done?" Liang Yuan asked immediately upon hearing this.

The cultivation room in front of us is actually similar to the Spirit Gathering Tower in Yangshan.

However, the Gathering Spirit Tower separates the two functions of gene-assisted cultivation and enhancing the supernatural energy field.

The training room in front of us is a combination of both.

What Liang Yuan was even more curious about was how this auxiliary training room identified specific genes.

Yang Lan quickly explained, "The gene identification in this cultivation room mainly relies on gene sequence identification."

"Each gene in our body actually has a specific pair of genes, and the gene sequence is different for each gene."

"We will collect different gene samples in advance and build a sample bank."

“The unique features of each gene are identified. When a cultivator enters the room, the gene is tested and the gene sample is matched to determine the cultivator’s gene type.”

"Once it's confirmed, the runes in the entire training room will activate an array, specifically activating the sensitivity of a certain type of gene to the environment."

"In this way, the superhumans in the training room will be more acutely aware of which genes their bodies need, so they won't match the wrong genes during training."

"As for how to increase the concentration of supernatural energy inside the training room, we have three more solutions to enhance it."

"The first and most common method is to use a spirit-gathering formation..."

As Yang Lan talked about her professional background, she gradually relaxed and began to speak eloquently about the concept behind her invention of the device.

Liang Yuan listened attentively to her story.

Wang Ling'er, who was standing to the side, really couldn't understand and was even a little drowsy.

However, Liang Yuan is different. He has exchanged for gene equipment and even researched runes, so he has a certain foundation.

He really can keep up with Yang Lan's train of thought.

Yang Lan gradually realized this as well, and the look of surprise on her face became more and more obvious.

She never imagined that someone who could defeat Jin Shirong would also have such profound expertise in research!

It should be noted that Jin Shirong had almost no interest in this area at the time, and only knew how to pressure Yang Lan and the research team to develop equipment that could be used for gene recombination.

Because of his lack of understanding, Jin Shirong often makes some outrageous requests.

This would make it impossible for Yang Lan to achieve her goal, which would then enrage Jin Shirong.

Yang Lan was terrified, fearing that one day she would lose her head.

Liang Yuan's professionalism has surprised and delighted her.

What's astonishing is how much this person knows; she couldn't possibly fool him even if she wanted to.

The good thing is that with someone like that leading them, they probably won't come up with any technologies that are simply impossible to implement.

In their line of work, what they fear most is an outsider leading an expert.

Therefore, she was genuinely worried that Liang Yuan would become the next Jin Shirong.
