Douluo: The Holy Radiance of the Dragon King

Chapter 314 Chief Researcher Ling Zichen, Miss Ling, you didn't want this either... The Holy Spirit Cult and Tang Sect's cooperation goes online.

After the snowstorm, the world was clear and bright.

Feng Zaixing stepped out of the secret room, and on a whim, leaped through space into the dean's office, giving Luan Hongchen a pleasant surprise.

"Dean, your four-word battle armor, the Heaven-Forged Metal, has arrived. The rest is up to you."

Feng Zaixing pulled out a bunch of products he had recently acquired during his free time from his storage ring, and then he saw how happy an old man could be for a set of battle armor.

"Hahahaha—this dean is about to have a four-word battle armor! Now tell me, how should this dean thank you? Hahahaha—"

Luan Hongchen held the Heavenly Forged Metal, looking at it from left to right and touching it with such deep affection, as if he were looking at his most beloved lover.

Feng Zaixing's lips twitched slightly as he reminded him, "Dean, perhaps you should tone it down a bit? That smile doesn't seem like that of a respectable person; it's more like the demeanor of the Holy Spirit Cult."

"This is how my Hongchen family has always acted; it's called true character." Luan Hongchen waved his hand dismissively.

Feng Zaixing suddenly realized that he had underestimated the power of the Divine Craftsman identity. Even with inflation, the power of the four-word battle armor was still real and formidable.

"Alright, I'll assume you're just being genuine. Now there's a problem, do you think you can solve it?"

Feng Zaixing picked up a pen and paper and casually wrote down his idea for an "amphibious counter-terrorism monitoring system".

Luan Hongchen took a look, and the smile on his face quickly disappeared. "Requirement: to be able to monitor the movement of level 6 or higher fixed-position soul-guided artillery shells throughout the Federation at any time and place, and to strictly prevent the Holy Spirit Cult or other terrorist organizations from launching terrorist retaliations against the Federation in any way, at any time, and in any place —"

"Furthermore, this system will not only be used for the defense of the Federation's homeland, but will also be installed on the Federation Navy's core fleet, including mother ships and battleships, hiss—"

Luan Hongchen gasped, looked up, and gave a bitter smile: "Zaixing, you're really making things difficult for me. Where does Mingde Hall have such technology? The resources required to deploy it across the entire Federation would be astronomical."

"I know, but it's better to be safe than sorry. I didn't say we were going to build a defense system, just a monitoring system, like getting more radars."

.

Feng Zaixing spread his hands, indicating that they also understood the difficulties faced by frontline staff and did not want to put too much pressure on him.

Luan Hongchen's lips twitched, and he said, "Why did you come up with these things? Are you afraid that the Federation Navy will suffer in silence if they go to the Star Luo Empire? We do lack effective means in this regard."

"I was just thinking, if I were a cultist specializing in evil spirits, I wouldn't care about the date when I carried out terrorist attacks; I'd just do it whenever I felt like it."

Feng Zaixing tapped the table lightly. He still remembered how "fragile" the Federation's naval fleet was. A single level-nine soul-guided cannon shell shattered a black-class battleship. In the end, they couldn't figure out who did it. They only managed to capture the Dark King of the Holy Spirit Cult.

At that time, the Federation Navy's strength was not just a single legion, but a combined fleet composed of the Poseidon Legion, the East Navy Legion, and the North Navy Legion. The fact that it was attacked and left in a state of utter disarray caused Feng Zaixing's evaluation of the Federation Navy to plummet.

If it weren't for the fact that fighting alone is no longer viable in this era, and that even if one person defeats the opponent's peak combat power, it wouldn't be enough to conquer territory, Feng Zaixing would truly not want to bother with the Federation's declining navy.

Damn it, they know nothing about a terrorist attack, and two Tang Sect cannonballs could take down a mothership. If you ask me, your navy should stop wasting taxpayers' money and just go to bed. You might as well just transport some top-level experts and a bunch of lowly soldiers over there.

As for guarding against the Holy Spirit Cult's resurgence and random attacks on the mainland, Feng Zaixing admitted that this was partly an overreaction, but when it comes to evil spirit masters, it's not unreasonable to speculate from the worst possible angle.

After listening to Feng Zaixing's explanation, Luan Hongchen gradually felt that these things had some potential. So he suppressed his restless brows, gritted his teeth, and said, "Alright! It's just some radar. Our Mingde Hall can still make it. I will definitely deliver this technology to you before the Federation's joint fleet is fully formed."

Feng Zaixing's expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "If improving the quality of the metal can effectively enhance the radar's effectiveness, I can do my best to provide Tianduan metal. Even if it means spending money, we must at least ensure the security of the Federation's homeland!"

"Yes, ensure the safety of the Federation's homeland—wait, what did you say?"

Luan Hongchen realized he was rambling as he spoke, paused for a moment, and then asked, "Shouldn't we prioritize protecting the naval fleet?"

"Forget it. The navy's outdated equipment has been around for a long time. I'll personally oversee the next expedition. I can handle any crisis that isn't too dangerous. If I can't even handle that, then installing radar is useless."

Feng Zaixing raised his hand and cursed his military equipment, his words revealing his considerable confidence in the strength of his humanoid nuclear bomb.

He is currently at the peak of the level 98 Super Douluo, and is preparing to accumulate experience for a period of time before attempting to break through to the Limit Douluo level.

He now possesses a god-level physical body and divine essence realm spiritual power. He can learn the path of divine power conversion from Le Zhengyang. Once he completes the integration of essence, energy, and spirit, even if he does not become a true god, he can still defy a true god.

In the mortal realm, he is already invincible. Now, what he pursues is no longer the level of rank, but to achieve the supreme status of the strongest among gods after becoming a god.

Luan Hongchen was naturally unaware of Feng Zaixing's ambitious nature, but he had a certain understanding of the "shabby level" of the Federal Navy. Upon hearing Feng Zaixing's words, he immediately showed his agreement.

"That's true. When the Federation goes to war on the two continents, you and Chen Xinjie will definitely be with the army. With two top experts like you in charge, no major problem can stump you. And even the biggest problem is beyond the capabilities of soul-guided technology."

"So, I'll leave the rest to you. I've always had a lot of confidence in your and Professor Kong's research abilities."

"Um—actually, you don't need to value me so much. It puts a lot of pressure on me, since I can't guarantee Mingdetang's research capabilities."

"Pressure is a motivator, and besides, this is about protecting our own territory and people from terrorist attacks—by the way, Dean, how's Ling Zichen, the one I captured from the Tang Clan back then, doing now?"

When talking about Mingdetang, Feng Zaixing couldn't help but recall the "bad things" he had done back then. Ling Zichen, this scientific research fanatic, can be described as an epoch-making scientific genius.

When Feng Zaixing asked about Ling Zichen, a strange look flashed in Luan Hongchen's eyes: "She's doing quite well. Brother Kong told me in private that this girl's scientific research talent is second to none in the entire Mingde Hall."

"If it weren't for the fact that this girl's personality is too crazy, she doesn't care about the consequences when she does scientific research, and she is from the Tang Clan, he would really like to train Ling Zichen to be the next Mingde Hall Master."

"Well, actually the latter isn't that important either, but this girl has been in the Tang Sect for so long that she doesn't have much awareness of experimental safety. Brother Kong is really worried that if she becomes the head of the Mingde Hall, she'll be too impulsive and blow up the entire Mingde Hall."

"What position does Ling Zichen hold now?"

"Oh, she is now the chief researcher at Mingdetang, in charge of research on the core part of the one-way circulation system; she enjoys a dedicated laboratory and research stipend, but few students dare to study under her when they go to Mingdetang for further studies."

Feng Zaixing's lips twitched slightly: "Why does this sound like the same location as Xuan Ziwen from ten thousand years ago? Won't this cause problems again?"

"Look at what you're saying, Zaixing. This time, we're the ones poaching her. Besides, where can she go now? The Tang Clan has already run away!" Luan Hongchen raised his big face, full of smugness.

Feng Zaixing felt that Dean Hongchen was a bit too confident, but after thinking about it, he realized that there was indeed no problem.

Once the Tang Clan is eliminated, Ling Zichen will naturally have nowhere to go. At worst, we can give her some psychological comfort, such as "You can name your studio the Tang Clan Studio," so that she will wholeheartedly work hard for Mingdetang for the rest of her life.

Perhaps we can leave a few Tang Clan members alive and stage a scene like, "Miss Ling, you don't want the Tang Clan's research path to be completely cut off, do you?"

Hmm, thinking about it this way, I, Feng, am really getting further and further away from the image of a glorious and righteous angel, and I am firmly embarking on the path of Han Laomo's development.

But we don't care about any of that. Who made Qian Daoliu act like a good guy, indirectly causing the Spirit Hall to collapse? And Du Busi, before his death, confessed to the wrong person and entrusted his affairs to the wrong person. An honest genius would have died long ago.

The so-called inner sage and outer king means that all evil spirits within the body are eradicated, leaving no place unholy within; and external problems are solved by the righteous and overwhelming power of the kingly way.

"The research is of great importance. I need to see Ling Zichen. This matter cannot be taken lightly." After thinking for a moment, Feng Zaixing decided to meet with the person in charge and ask for the opinion of a professional.

Luan Hongchen was delighted with this, and just before Feng Zaixing was about to leave, he suddenly had a brilliant idea and shouted, "Zaixing, you are in your prime and have a stunning appearance. Brother Kong has been trying to arrange a boyfriend for Xiaoling for the past few years so that she can settle down and be completely devoted to him. If you can win her over, you will have done a great service to Mingde Hall."

Feng Zaixing was just short of being startled to the ground by the unreliable words of "Luan Hongchen".

"Come on, I know her personality, I can't handle her."

Three hundred miles away in the sea off the Star Luo Continent.

Lan Fuzi, in her true form as a demonic whale, swam around a reef base of the Holy Spirit Cult, openly intercepting intelligence gathered by the cult's disciples. She then selectively "reported it to the highest authorities," entrusting her mother with trivial matters so that her mother would gradually become alienated from her subordinates.

Ever since she pledged allegiance to Feng Zaixing and Silver Dragonfish, this Demon Whale Princess has been using her own understanding to drag the Holy Spirit Cult back, outwardly striving to revitalize the Holy Spirit Cult while secretly wreaking havoc.

However, at this moment, when she saw Dark Phoenix Douluo Leng Yulai personally carrying a piece of information and specifically requesting to see her mother, Lan Fuzi knew that she couldn't stop her this time.

But this couldn't stump her clever mind, which was determined to be a double agent.

Suddenly, the Blue Whale Princess transformed into a young girl in the prime of her youth. Suppressing her disgust, she took Leng Yulai's arm and sweetly asked, "Sister Leng, what do you want to tell Mom? Is it something wonderful?"

"It's great news." Leng Yulai nodded slightly, a smug smile curving her deep purple lips. Pointing to her Time-Space Shuttle artifact, she said, "The Tang Sect has agreed to our covert cooperation. We've got the fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells we needed."

"Oh—oh, such a good thing actually happened! Sister Leng, you're amazing!"

Lan Fuzi was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, his heart racing. On the surface, he praised them lavishly, but in his heart, he cursed the Tang Clan for betraying their master and ancestors.

Didn't they say that your ancestor, Tang San, the Sea God, was a great and righteous savior of the ocean and the continent? Didn't he defeat the evil Spirit Hall?

Now, are all the descendants going to collude with evil spirit masters? What kind of nonsense is this!

"I need to find a chance to get the message out quickly," Lan Fuzi thought to herself.
