Black Silk Female Police Detective Exorcist

Upon entering the research institute, as Qin Huanyu pushed the box containing the octopus archbishop's corpse toward the laboratory, she spotted a familiar, energetic figure on a treadmill. The figure was undergoing the most scientific physical fitness tests and training.

"Ah, it's Sister Yu!"

Upon seeing Qin Huanyu, the figure immediately jumped off the treadmill and ran over happily. The two researchers responsible for training her simply shrugged and did not stop her.

"Xiaohan".

Qin Huanyu smiled, opened her arms, picked up the girl who ran towards her, spun her around, and then put her down:

"How are you doing? Are you adjusting to the training here?"

"no problem!"

The young girl proudly displayed her already developing chest, exuding confidence.

"I will definitely become a strong person like Sister Yu! When you get old and your physical strength can't keep up in the future, Sister Yu, I will protect Baiguang City!"

"Haha... It's good that you have that confidence."

Qin Huanyu smiled and patted the girl's head, then told her to continue her training.

This girl is none other than Lu Han, who became a heroine in the tiger attack incident and is also the first Jade Network Linker to successfully receive the power of the Jade Network.

Qin Huanyu admired Lu Han's courage and talent and formally invited him to become a prospective member of the Investigation Bureau.

Lu Han's parents did not agree at the time, but about half a month later, they called Qin Huanyu using the business card she left behind and said they agreed to Qin Huanyu's invitation.

At that time, Qin Huanyu was still participating in the princess selection in the capital, so she arranged for Lu Han to receive training at the Ling Su Research Institute, enjoying the same professional team support she had during her teenage years, only the training intensity was not as high.

Qin Huanyu has already made arrangements for Lu Han with the school. Now, Lu Han only needs to maintain a minimum attendance rate at school each week, and can spend the rest of his time in special training at the Ling Su Research Institute.

In terms of training efficiency, Lu Han could have stopped studying and studied on his own. Qin Huanyu, for example, had never attended school for a single day, yet her scientific literacy amazed even the old professors at Shendu University.

Lu Han can do something similar. Yuwang is the best learning cheat. With the help of Yuwang, she can learn all the content that the school teaches in a semester in just one to two weeks.

However, Lu Han himself was a little reluctant to give up his campus life with his three girlfriends, and Qin Huanyu did not want Lu Han to miss out on the joy of school like she did, so she agreed to let Lu Han maintain a minimum attendance rate at school and only come to the research institute for training outside of class.

Based on Lu Han's current training progress, he should be able to achieve some results in three years. At that time, Qin Huanyu will be promoted to a formal inspector, and the position of investigator in Baiguang City can be handed over to Lu Han.

Hua Heshang Chenghai and Bai Ling will definitely not be promoted as quickly as Qin Huanyu. In three years, they will most likely still be investigators, which will be a good opportunity for them to mentor Lu Han, the newcomer.

. . . . .

The main research focus of the Lingsu Research Institute is the superhuman strength of the human body. Although the physiological structures of aliens and humans are very different, it is still within the research scope that the Lingsu Research Institute is good at, at least better than several other top research institutes of the same level.

Qin Hai, a once-renowned genius in the capital, and his daughter Qin Huanyu worked together to thoroughly investigate the secrets of the Octopus Archbishop in about a week.

Whether this thing is an alien or not is hard to say, but it is definitely not a human. Its physiological structure is different from any life on Earth, and it cannot even be considered a purely carbon-based organism.

The Octopus Archbishop doesn't even need to breathe; any attack aimed at suffocation is ineffective. However, it does have various organs to maintain its physiological functions, and these organs are relatively fragile compared to its body. If severely damaged, its bodily functions will cease.

Qin Huanyu was able to kill it by destroying its internal organs through high temperatures.

In the future, when encountering similar enemies, high-temperature attacks will also be very effective. In addition, blunt force blows can also cause fatal damage to this creature.

The acid that could even corrode and destroy the Dragon Mace was actually the stomach acid of this creature.

This acid not only contains compounds completely different from those in the geochemical system, but also exhibits a considerable concentration of linguistic reactions. Its inherent corrosiveness is already quite high, and the linguistic effect further amplifies this corrosiveness, making it a strong acid capable of even corroding a powerful weapon like the Kanglong Mace.

While studying the octopus archbishop's corpse, Qin Huanyu discovered a small amount of this strong acidic liquid in its stomach, and encountered a minor problem during extraction.

Because this strong acid is so corrosive, no container can withstand it. Whether it's a plastic bottle or a glass bottle, it won't last more than a few seconds before it corrodes and melts. Metal is even less likely to withstand it.

After Qin Huanyu carefully studied the Octopus Archbishop's stomach, she discovered that the concentration of supernatural iron in the stomach exceeded 98%, which was the main reason why it could store such a strong acid.

So Qin Huanyu immediately made a pure spirit-repelling iron container to hold the strong acid, but it still didn't work.

While the abyssal iron can withstand the corrosive effect of spiritual essence on acid, it cannot withstand the corrosiveness of the acid itself. The 2% non-abyssal iron impurities in the Octopus Archbishop's stomach are equally important.

After this discovery, Qin Huanyu handed over the research on the Octopus Archbishop's other body structures to her father, Qin Hai, while she herself focused on this strong acid.

With the near-endless research resources of the Spirit Element Research Institute, the constant insight and analysis of all relevant data by the Mathematical Magic Eye, and countless deductions and calculations in her mind, Qin Huanyu finally made a breakthrough in her research on the gastric acid of the Octopus Archbishop half a month later.

She couldn't completely replicate this strong acid because it contained many substances that don't exist on Earth. However, she successfully found various substitutes and, based on the principles of this strong acid, formulated a new one where all the raw materials could be sourced from Earth. This new acid was about 97% as powerful as the original and strong enough to corrode any material currently existing on Earth.

In order to preserve this new strong acid, Qin Huanyu copied the stomach of the Octopus Archbishop and developed a new alloy with a content of about 94% pure iron, which can be used as a container for the new acid.

Both the new strong acid and the new alloy were Qin Huanyu's inventions. She didn't hold back at all, directly referring to the naming pattern of the Jade Network, and named the two new inventions Jade Acid and Jade Alloy respectively. She also sent the relevant formulas and technical data directly to Wu Xiqun, who was already the director of the 404 Investigation Bureau.

Wu Xiqun is very good at handling things.

Since sharing the technological achievements was a condition agreed upon in advance, Wu Xiqun couldn't directly give Qin Huanyu the reward, so she found another excuse to give the reward to Yi Youyou.

Anyway, Yi Youyou is now the Luantai Siming, which is equivalent to Wu Xiqun's personal agent. It's reasonable for her to receive a bonus from her boss, and no one can say anything about it.

Qin Huanyu developed jade acid and jade alloy, and Qin Hai's side was no less impressive.

Through in-depth research into the Octopus Archbishop's body, he created a detector that could directly identify the Octopus Archbishop's kin in a crowd.

This detector can be mounted on aircraft and radar, or used by a single person. It can even be used in conjunction with the most advanced spy satellites to scan countries and regions. After scanning, all of the Octopus Archbishop's kin can be marked as red dots on the map.

Considering that the Church of the Apocalypse had defeated the Church of Holy Light nearly 200 years ago and become the mainstream faith in the Western world, the Holy Zhou Kingdom attached great importance to this and immediately launched a new satellite carrying a new type of detector developed by Qin Hai to monitor the globe.

The results were astonishing: over 30,000 red dots were detected worldwide, including more than 2000 within the territory of the Holy Zhou Kingdom.

The intelligence personnel of the Holy Zhou Kingdom immediately sprang into action, probing the red dots, after which the high-ranking officials of the Holy Zhou Kingdom breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The detector invented by Qin Hai was working properly; those red dots were indeed octopus-headed people, but their strength was far inferior to that of the Octopus Archbishop.

They don't have the body of the Spirit-Slaying Iron; most of their bodies can only be highly petrified or transformed into wood. They are definitely stronger than ordinary people and can withstand pistol bullets, but that's about it... A soldier with an automatic rifle can easily take them down.

However, the Holy Zhou Kingdom still takes this very seriously. More than 3 individuals have infiltrated human society and have almost monopolized religious beliefs in the Western world, which shows that the octopus-headed people have great ambitions for Earth.

Considering the international impact, the Holy Zhou Kingdom did not directly declare the Church of the Apocalypse a cult, but in reality, it has already begun to suppress the church as a cult. It will use various methods to reduce the influence of the Church of the Apocalypse within the Holy Zhou Kingdom and plans to completely expel it within a year.

After squeezing out all the scientific value from the Octopus Archbishop's corpse, Qin Hai and his daughter Qin Huanyu began the large-scale smelting process, extracting as much of the Spirit Iron as possible from the corpse, retaining some rare substances that could not be found on Earth, and discarding the useless residue.

The final amount of refined Spirit Iron exceeded 360 kilograms. Of these, 100 kilograms were handed over as agreed, and Qin Huanyu could use the rest herself. For the time being, she would no longer lack Spirit Iron.

With enough materials, Qin Huanyu immediately began to modify and repair the equipment damaged in the battle at the palace.

Nearly a quarter of the Kanglong Mace has been corroded away. There is no metal on Earth that can match the strength of the raw material. Even if it is repaired, its physical properties will definitely decline.

So Qin Huanyu simply abandoned that part of the physical properties and chose the best physical properties of the Absolute Spirit Iron alloy as the repair material, adding some magic resistance to the Kanglong Mace.

The armor's weapons were also redesigned. Qin Huanyu reduced the number of small missiles but increased their explosive charge. She also kept two small missiles using Spirit Element technology on standby, with a power roughly equivalent to a 500-pound bomb. If she encountered an enemy like the Octopus Archbishop, she could simply launch the missiles to kill it.

With the space freed up after the reduction of small missiles, Qin Huanyu made several jars out of jade alloy, which were filled with jade acid as a new type of weapon to accompany the armor.

The original version of Jade Acid, a strong acid, can corrode and destroy the Kanglong Mace and Yuan Tingxue's flying sword. Jade Acid with 97% of the power of the original version can also do the same. It can also destroy other divine weapons and magic treasures.

Among the ancient sect's extraordinary individuals, there are quite a few who mainly rely on divine weapons and magical artifacts to fight. If they can destroy the enemy's most important equipment with jade acid in the first place during the battle, they can greatly increase their chances of winning and reduce the difficulty of the battle.

Qin Huanyu also considered whether to replace the armor with pure spirit-repelling iron. The magic resistance of spirit-repelling iron was still much weaker, and many people could easily penetrate it.

However, she is ultimately different from Lü Meng. She is not a purely technological cyber warrior. She also relies heavily on her supernatural powers, and the Pure Spirit Iron Armor would affect her own power output. Therefore, she eventually gave up the idea of ​​creating the Pure Spirit Iron Armor.

However, people tend to have some extravagant thoughts after becoming wealthy, and Qin Huanyu is no exception.

She made a batch of bullets using a jade alloy with a content of over 94% pure iron, and each bullet's head was filled with a small amount of jade acid.

This is a bullet designed for superhuman beings. The jade alloy bullet with an extremely high content of spiritual iron can penetrate various spiritual elemental defenses. After entering the human body, the bullet releases jade acid, which corrodes the enemy's internal organs, causing intense pain to quickly render the enemy incapable of fighting.

It is a very luxurious and cruel weapon. Qin Huanyu would never have thought of it this way before, but this trip to the capital made her realize that she can use this weapon cautiously or even not at all, but she cannot be without it.

. . . . .

Time always flies when you're immersed in research; a little over a month passed in the blink of an eye.

That day, while Qin Huanyu was still brainstorming new inventions at the Lingsu Research Institute, Duanmu Ling, who was staying at Baibo Huafu, called to say that her girlfriend, the young lady from the capital, had come again.

Qin Huanyu then returned to her own house and, as expected, saw Yi Youyou, who had already put her luggage directly into the master bedroom.

"Youyou? What brings you here?"

Qin Huanyu was somewhat surprised:

"Didn't you just become the Luantai Siming (a high-ranking official in charge of destiny) and have a very busy schedule?"

"I was quite busy right after her wedding. Later, as the hype surrounding her wedding cooled down, I had a lot more free time."

Yi Youyou leaned against Qin Huanyu's headboard, drinking juice, her two feet, still slightly steaming in their white fishnet stockings, gently swaying on the sheets.

"After all, the royal family has stopped participating in governing the country since the reforms during the War of Resistance against Japan. Now that Qunqun is no longer an idol, she has a lot of free time after her popularity has died down... She is currently on her honeymoon with Bichi Yue, showing off their love and showering us with dog food every day. I really can't stand it."

"So they're on their honeymoon. No wonder I haven't heard from Yuebao."

Qin Huanyu suddenly realized, and sat down on the edge of the bed, grabbing Yi Youyou's foot and gently tickling it:

"At the time, Yuebao said that after the selection of concubines, she would personally bring people to Baiguang City to study the brainwave control system of drones with me."

“She hasn’t forgotten this at all.”

Yi Youyou tried to pull her foot back a couple of times, but couldn't, so she could only roll her eyes and let Qin Huanyu play with it.

“Bichi Yue is busy with her honeymoon with Qun Qun and doesn’t have time to come to you, but her research team is already preparing and will probably come to Baiguang City in a couple of days to cooperate with you on your research.”

"That's just right."

Qin Huanyu smiled and nodded:

"I've pretty much finished researching the Octopus-Headed Archbishop, it's time for a change of pace. Yuebao's brainwave-controlled drone combat project is quite interesting. Once it achieves the expected results, our Holy Zhou Kingdom will not only be able to truly manufacture aerospace carriers as battlefield weapons, but also greatly enhance the strength of individual soldiers."

"...I know that because of this incident and the awakening of Qunqun's power, many people in the upper echelons are now very radical and want to launch a war to rebuild the former glory of the Holy Zhou Kingdom."

Yi Youyou said with a complicated expression:

"Fengge has already made adjustments. Our Holy Zhou Kingdom's military expenditure next year will be much higher than this year's, and many weapons development projects that were originally slowed down or even stalled have been restarted."

Chapter 184 Youyou Wants to Be Developed by Ayu

"Huh? Could it be that you, Youyou, like that artist lady, also oppose war?"

Seeing that Yi Youyou seemed a little unhappy, Qin Huanyu tilted her head and asked, puzzled.

"That's definitely not the case. I'm not that saintly. If anyone dares to bully me, I'll definitely retaliate tenfold and beat them to a pulp."

Yi Youyou shook her head:

"I just find it all so troublesome... Can't everyone just live their own lives? Why do we have to scheme against each other and fight for hegemony? This isn't ancient times anymore, where wars were fought for resources. Modern technology has enough productivity to ensure everyone has enough to eat and wear, so why work so hard? Greed can never be satisfied, so it's better to just relax and enjoy life."

"Oh, I get it."

Qin Huanyu suddenly realized, and with a smile, tickled Yi Youyou's feet:

"Youyou, you're not anti-war, you're just a lazy dog ​​who hates trouble."

"I'm just a little lazy, so what?"

Yi Youyou puffed out her cheeks and poked Qin Huanyu with the toe of her other foot:

"But Ayu, you seem to really like war? Or rather, you strongly support the idea of ​​unifying our Holy Zhou Kingdom."

"Yes, I do support it."

Qin Huanyu nodded calmly and then gently clamped Yi Youyou's other leg between her legs.

"Actually, I'm not very interested in slogans like rebuilding the glory of the empire. My support for the idea of ​​unification is a more objective reason."

"What's the reason?"

Yi Youyou asked curiously.

"First, we should reduce internal friction and use resources in a more rational way."

Qin Huanyu first held up one finger:

"In today's international community, too many resources and energy are being spent on vying for hegemony, which is a tremendous waste. If human civilization could achieve unification, it could optimize and integrate resources, significantly accelerate the pace of civilization's development, and enable technological leaps."

"Secondly, it is about planning ahead."

Qin Huanyu then raised her second finger and poked Yi Youyou's foot with both fingers together, making her giggle from the ticklish sensation.

"As can be seen from the thousands of years of history of our Holy Zhou Kingdom, when faced with powerful foreign enemies, scattered towns and tribes can hardly resist them. They will only be defeated one by one, and the people will suffer. Only by uniting and forming a country can we defeat the enemy."

"If we extend this theory, the result will be the same... There are already too many factors that indicate that extraterrestrial civilizations do exist, and there may even be more than one that has visited Earth. Sooner or later, Earth's civilization will have to face the entire cosmos."

"Interstellar civilizations may not truly be a dark jungle, but there will certainly be plunderers who believe in the power of force over hard work... If, in the future, we Earth civilization is not even a unified whole when facing extraterrestrial enemies, wouldn't we be like ancient towns and tribes facing foreign invasion, only to be defeated one by one by the enemy?"

"Therefore, the unification of Earth's civilization is an inevitable trend, and whoever achieves unification will benefit the entire human civilization... It just so happens that I am a citizen of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, so I can only support the Holy Zhou Kingdom to win the final hegemony. Moreover, the fact that Qunqun was able to awaken her bloodline power at this time and pull out the Warrior's Sword, which no one in the royal family had been able to pull out for thousands of years, really feels like destiny has come to pass."

"...Is it destiny?"

Yi Youyou gave Qin Huanyu a deep look and sighed softly:

"Perhaps that is indeed the case."

"Okay, actually, Youyou, you don't need to overthink it."
