I chose one of four options at the start, and I chose the number one clan in Lingnan.

A level four treasure chest unfolded before Lin Ting.

Outside the ancestral hall, clansmen were still cleaning up the tables and chairs left behind from the banquet, and night watchmen stood guard on both sides of the courtyard gate, with no one entering the main hall.

Lin Ting was fiddling with the walnuts, and the list of rewards in his field of vision unfolded one by one.

The Level 4 treasure chest reward has been generated.

[Reward 1: Intermediate gene optimization solution formula, plus 50 vials of the first batch of validation reagents.]

This elixir is suitable for family members who have completed basic enhancements, optimizing bone stress, muscle fiber function, and nerve responses. Overall physical attributes are improved by 80% to 120%.

[Reward 2: Fully automated unmanned machine tool program.]

This program can manage one thousand industrial machine tools, completing production scheduling, tool changing, error correction, tool compensation, and quality traceability. Large-scale deployment requires a quantum-level encrypted network.

Lin Ting first opened the optimization fluid data.

The formula is divided into fourteen processes. Kang Sheng Pharmaceutical already has nine types of equipment that can handle the front-end production, while the remaining five types of equipment need to be customized.

The first batch of fifty verification reagents has been placed in the underground storage room of the ancestral hall, each with an independent number and complete testing data.

Lin Fei's test report was still on the table.

The old enhancement plan has been developed to its limit. After Zhongtang participated in overseas missions, the opponents he faced changed from local thugs to armed pirates and overseas enforcement teams.

The Lin Hai 7 was able to return intact thanks to effective coordination and equipment. Had Basong been equipped with standard military equipment, the rescue cost would have been several times higher.

Just as dawn broke, Lin Fu received a call from the ancestral hall.

"Fifty people will be selected from the nameless island rescue team, and Lin Fei will be included in the first batch. The list will only be based on mission records, physical data, and clan affiliation."

The medical team first conducted a full set of examinations, and everyone had to sign project documents; family members also received a guarantee explanation.

After reviewing the list of meritorious officials, Lin Fu asked, "Should the project be placed at the Kang Sheng Experimental Center or the Zhong Tang Base?"

If the data from fifty people changes on the same day, external medical examination agencies will quickly take notice.

Lin Ting sealed the formula information into a file bag.

"Kang Sheng is responsible for testing, and Zhong Tang is responsible for management. The medicines are included in the clan's physical fitness optimization program, and personal data is designated as internal medical records."

External medical examinations will be conducted according to security filing standards; any records exceeding standard procedures must not be uploaded to the public platform.

At 9:00 a.m., fifty people entered the Kang Sheng Pharmaceutical underground experimental center.

Lin Fei was placed first. The medical team drew blood samples and examined his heart, lungs, joints, and nerve conduction data.

The three previously injured individuals were removed from the list and replaced by reserve personnel. The remaining fifty individuals are all in good condition.

Lin Dabiao stood in the observation room. He wasn't selected for the first batch, but he didn't raise any objections.

"Lin Fei, the Grandfather gave you the spot, but that doesn't mean you have to gamble with your health. The medical team has issued a stop order. Anyone who dares to take even half a step further will be punished by Zhongtang first."

Lin Fei looked at the medicine numbered 001.

"There is no room for improvement in the old training. Once overseas routes are opened, Zhongtang will inevitably encounter tough battles sooner or later."

The project documents clearly outline the risks, and I'm willing to participate. If any problems arise, I'll be the first to document the data for those who follow.

Fifty documents have been signed.

In the first ten minutes after the medication was ingested, the laboratory only recorded an increase in body temperature.

Half an hour later, the soreness and swelling on Lin Fei's old arm injury subsided, and his heart rate dropped from 126 to 72.

The medical team increased the workload, but his blood oxygen saturation remained within the standard range.

Two hours later, the first round of testing began.

Five solid steel balls, each 46 millimeters in diameter, were placed next to the testing table. Each ball had undergone hardness testing, and its material number and weight were written on the side of the tray.

Lin Fei picked up the first one and gradually increased the pressure in his palm.

Five fingerprints were pressed into the surface of the steel ball, and the center collapsed inward.

Ten seconds later, a crack appeared at the edge of the steel. Lin Fei changed his grip, and the steel ball broke into four pieces, which fell into the tray.

The doctor in charge of taking notes stopped writing and reviewed the documents and certificates again.

"There was no replacement; it is indeed solid low-carbon steel. Replacing the electronic hand gripper with an industrial hydraulic test piece would prevent ordinary equipment from withstanding a second round."

The new test piece has been fixed in place.

Lin Fei's old record was 987 kilograms. The number on the screen exceeded 1,500 and finally stopped at 1,974 kilograms.

The power has doubled exactly.

The next 49 people completed the tests one after another, with the lowest improvement reaching 86% and the highest reaching 115%. Their performance in terms of load, reaction speed, and endurance also surpassed previous records.

A young member of the container protection team looked at his hands for a long time before speaking.

"When someone on the island fired into the container area, I could only use my shield to push them away. If I encounter a similar situation again, I will be able to carry the injured crew members and the shield back together."

Lin Dabiao closed his report.

"Increased strength doesn't mean you can act recklessly. You need to adapt to the new data first, and you're not allowed to participate in high-intensity missions for seven days. Anyone who tests the data privately will be disqualified from future missions."

After the fifty people left the experimental center, Lin Ting entered the ancestral hall training room alone.

The system message indicates that the refresh has been completed.

[Fifty core clan members have completed intermediate optimization.]

[The cultivation of industry talent and the fostering of a sense of belonging to one's clan can create a mutually beneficial relationship.]

[The host's physical attributes have been fully enhanced, and the current overall data has surpassed conventional human records.]

The maximum weight capacity of the force measuring device in the training room is 5,000 kilograms.

Lin Ting raised his hand and threw a punch; the number rose to five thousand and then stopped. The four steel bolts securing the force gauge disengaged from their slots, and the base moved back half a meter.

He withdrew his hand and pushed the equipment back into place.

Lin Fei's power doubled, and the data fed back to him, after being superimposed by fifty people, had entered another level.

Speed, reaction time, and endurance all improve simultaneously, but the system does not provide a specific upper limit.

At noon, Wei Jianguo and Lin Zheng were summoned to the Lin's Heavy Industry Research Institute.

An isolated computer was placed in front of the two people, containing the program for a fully automated unmanned machine tool.

The program is not connected to the factory equipment; it only runs a digital sandbox.

After Wei Jianguo imported an aircraft blade processing task, the system automatically broke down 372 processing steps and adjusted the tool wear parameters.

The simulated production ended, and the finished product error was only 0.4 micrometers.

Wei Jianguo stared at the test results, his palm resting on the operating table.

"If Hongtu's existing multi-axis machining centers are integrated with this program, no operators will need to be assigned for the night shift."

One engineer can manage twenty processing lines, increasing production capacity by at least three times.

The problem is that the entire factory has to obey whichever machine the program originates from.

Lin Zheng has already opened the security requirements document.

"The program rejects ordinary key systems and requires quantum key distribution for core nodes."

Production parameters also require two-way verification. While existing network infrastructure can perform isolation and intrusion auditing, it cannot support this level of underlying architecture.

Wei Jianguo exited the sandbox program.

"Then let's seal them up for now. Hongtu would rather reduce production than hand over control of the machine tools to outsiders."

"The leakage of tool parameters and material formulas alone means that several years of research by the institute will have to be redone."

On the same day, Lin Fu released the industrial security cooperation requirements, but did not disclose the fully automated control procedures. He only proposed to build a quantum encryption network and an industrial control security center.

Four hours after the request was sent out, Jiuzhou Tiandun Network Security Co., Ltd. in the provincial capital delivered a cooperation agreement.

This company has won provincial-level industrial network projects for six consecutive years, and its market value on the Science and Technology Innovation Board exceeds 20 billion yuan.

Chairman Shao Wenyan personally signed the cooperation agreement on the last page and promised to open up the core code and send a team of 100 people to be stationed in Tazhai.

Lin Fu turned to the last page, where a handwritten message came into view.

"Jiuzhou Tiandun is willing to use all of its underlying code as collateral to build the highest-level industrial security network in the country for the Lin family."
