With a burst of mist, the isolation chamber slowly opened.

The dark red substance expanded slightly after coming into contact with the outside air, then returned to its inert state, constantly changing shape in place.

Su Shuyan pulled out a device that resembled a pistol, and a beam of light shone forward from its front end.

As if drawn by some kind of force, the substance called 'Xuan Yi' slowly drifted towards the two of them.

"This strange object... can it really be opened so simply?"

Lin Yuan found it hard to believe. Didn't this kind of thing require a complete and strict risk control process to operate?

There's no need for that.

Su Shuyan's voice was cold and clear.

"The containment chambers were strictly divided during construction. The area we are currently in is considered safe and allows direct contact with the strange objects."

According to the company, it's a Level 3 containment item. It can be retrieved directly according to regulations as long as a professional is present.

However, for high-risk Level 1 or even Special Class containment objects, the procedures and required authorizations are far more complex.

"I see."

Lin Yuan nodded. With his doubts resolved, he turned his attention to the black and red substance in front of him.

"This thing is called Xuan Yi?"

"Yes, the company's official name for it is 'Mist of Change'... but its real name is actually 'Mysterious Change'."

Su Shuyan explained that Lin Yuan noticed a significant difference in her tone of voice when she spoke.

Hmm, this doesn't really look like a weapon.

After observing for a moment, Lin Yuan pointed at the substance in front of him with great interest.

The dark red mist surged up the moment he touched it, eventually transforming into a sphere.

Su Shuyan, who had been intently observing him, suddenly changed her expression. After a moment of silence, she said:

"Yi means change. Just like its name, it can change into different shapes according to the user's wishes. It can reflect the appearance that the user's heart needs most and carry its power."

But to become its owner, one must possess certain qualifications.

"So how do you qualify?"

Upon hearing the other party's introduction, Lin Yuan felt a burning desire to acquire this extraordinary item.

Leaving aside its ability to bear the power of destiny, let's talk about its ever-changing characteristics.

That means you can turn a knife into a knife whenever you want, and a sword into a sword whenever you want! That's so cool!

"Infuse your power into it, and once it recognizes you, it will transform into the form most suitable for you, and you will gain the right to control it."

"it is good."

After listening, Lin Yuan's expression became serious.

He slowly stretched out his hand, and an indescribable sensation immediately came from his palm, a tingling and numb feeling.

A flash of purple appeared in Lin Yuan's eyes, and his expression suddenly turned serious.

Su Shuyan suddenly looked at him with surprise, feeling that Lin Yuan seemed to have changed at this moment.

A sense of pressure emanated from the other person, causing her to involuntarily take a half-step back.

"I need to be qualified to lead you, but don't you also need my approval?"

The thought flashed through Lin Yuan's mind, and the next moment, the purple-gold power flowed directly from his hand into the 'Xuan Yi' in front of him, and the surrounding space seemed to distort for a moment.

The next second, the black and red weapon suddenly surged upwards like boiling water.

This confrontational state immediately produced a violent reaction, but the reaction did not last long.

A few dozen seconds later, the state of 'Xuan Yi' changed again. It gradually began to solidify from a cloud of steaming mist and began to transform into other shapes.

You did it!

Su Shuyan exclaimed in surprise; it was the first time Lin Yuan had ever seen her so excited.

"You have earned the right to wield it, and now it is to reflect the most suitable form and appearance in your heart."

At this moment, she looked unusually excited, but there was a hint of melancholy in her eyes.

Lin Yuan wasn't thinking much about it at the moment. He stared intently at the strange object changing before him, and with a hint of anticipation in his heart, he guessed:

"What I truly desire in my heart—is it a knife... or a sword?"

Soon, as its form became fully fixed, a hazy light flashed by, and the appearance of the strange object was completely finalized.

The first thing that catches the eye is the long handle, with shimmering light emanating from its black and red base.

A hint of doubt flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes. With such a long hilt, could it be some kind of longsword?

The line of sight gradually extended upwards, but no sharp edge appeared for a long time.

Lin Yuan guessed again that it might be a long spear, or perhaps a halberd.

He was quite satisfied with the image of him waving his weapon so powerfully.

But when Lin Yuan saw the weapon in its entirety, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

What appeared before them was indeed a spear tip gleaming with a cold light at the end of the long handle.

But on either side of it, there is a sharp, armor-piercing spike on one side, and on the other side, there is a heavy-looking hammerhead.

Lin Yuan recognized the weapon; the weapon that appeared in his mind was a long-handled warhammer!

(Besides the warhammer, this weapon can be freely transformed and used in any form.)

"A peculiar weapon."

Su Shuyan leaned closer and carefully examined the details of the weapon.

A strange light flickered in her eyes, and she seemed quite interested.

"May I touch it?"

Su Shuyan turned her head to ask Lin Yuan, her smooth hair falling to one side.

"of course can."

Lin Yuan gently swung it a few times to feel its weight. Once he felt the weight as if it were his own arm, his doubts about its appearance were immediately forgotten.

"This is the weapon I want." At this moment, Lin Yuan had only one thought in his mind.

He then held the warhammer horizontally in front of him and handed it to Su Shuyan.

She gently placed her hand on the warhammer, her fingers softly tracing the long handle.

As if in response to its caress, the handle of the warhammer began to shimmer with a gentle light.

A moment later, Su Shuyan withdrew her hand, her eyes still filled with a sense of reluctance.

"Now, it's yours."

Upon hearing Su Shuyan's words, Lin Yuan suddenly hesitated.

"Shouldn't this be considered a valuable asset? Would the company hand it over to me so easily?"

Once the item was in Lin Yuan's hands, it could never be returned, and he began to think about what price he should pay.

"Don't worry, no one will cause you any trouble because of this. Because... this wonder belongs to me."

"Yours, what do you mean?"

Lin Yuan was taken aback.

“This is a family heirloom, and I have always owned it. The reason it’s here is simply because I applied to the company for a place to store it. So as long as I agree, it’s yours.”

Su Shuyan turned her head away and said softly.

"what?"

Lin Yuan said, somewhat shocked.

"Miss Su, this is far too valuable!"

"It's nothing. Since I'm not qualified to inherit it and I'm entrusting it to the company, it's natural to find someone to take charge of it. It's already good enough that you're qualified to take charge of it and keep it from becoming tarnished."

Lin Yuan did not readily accept the offer based on the other party's statement; his expression became slightly more serious.

“Every gift of fate has its value; every sip and every bite has its cause. So I can help you this once.”

Looking at Lin Yuan's calm gaze, Su Shuyan was momentarily stunned.

After a moment, she lowered her eyes and spoke softly.

"Fine, you just need to cooperate with my subsequent experiments as agreed."

"This is far from matching the value of this rare item."

Lin Yuan's voice was slightly firm, and the scene fell into a moment of speechless silence.

The tense atmosphere didn't last long; Su Shuyan sighed softly.

"Okay, in that case, I think... I might need your help sometime in the future."

"Yes, but not if it goes against my principles."

Lin Yuan's voice echoed all around.

"Okay, let's go."

......

Chapter 36 Everything is Ready

The next day - Deputy Minister's office

"Brother Lin, that's really something. I heard you went to their R&D department and dismantled all their equipment?"

Upon seeing Lin Yuan appear, Qi Xingzhi, contrary to his usual behavior, asked with great interest.

Lin Yuan felt somewhat helpless after hearing this. How come the story was getting more and more outrageous, and why was this guy also becoming so gossipy?

"No, that's not true. The force was exceeded when testing the instrument, so the instrument malfunctioned."
