Volume 2: The Growing Flame Chapter 39: The General Administration's Surprise
“This knife…”
Well, very white and dazzling.
Director Zhou walked to the side to observe and saw that the workmanship of the knife was very exquisite. But, then again, isn’t modern craftsmanship just basic skills?
"Old Zhou, Old Zhou, you really are ignorant, otherwise, let me sit down with this director."
"You're dreaming!"
"Okay, okay, I'll let you try this weapon. I'm just lending it to you temporarily, so be careful not to bump into it. This is a rare weapon that I spent 600,000 Huang Yuan to buy!"
Six hundred thousand?
Director Zhou was surprised. Although Jiang Tingqiu was always out of tune, and although he had been an investigator for so long and had a lot of money, he spent so much money...
Either he is stupid or I am stupid.
I’m certainly not stupid, but he’s not quite like one either.
Director Zhou picked up the shiny sword. It was of moderate weight. No wonder Jiang Tingqiu had difficulty wielding it just now. It was just right for him to use. Moreover, it seemed, as if, perhaps, probably... was a little bit similar to the new weapon given to him by the General Administration.
Could this also be an awakened weapon?
Whether it is or not, you will know after trying it.
Director Zhou injected life energy into it. The difference between ordinary weapons and awakened weapons lies in the ability to compress life energy.
Ordinary weapons can be thought of as a cup that simply pushes the water out, without increasing the damage at all, but only slightly increasing the killing range.
The awakening weapons are water guns and high-pressure water guns, which can boost the life energy originally generated by scraping to a level that can cause powerful damage.
The pros and cons of this depend on the loss of life energy during compression and the speed of compression.
As soon as Director Zhou injected life energy into it, the sword seemed to be connected to his entire body, as smooth as his arm. If he was asked to describe the whole process, he could only think of one word - smooth!
Enjoy the silky smoothness!
He couldn't help but waved it, with the sound of wind breaking through the air.
"What do you think of Lao Zhou's sword?"
"Hmm..." Director Zhou hesitated for a while, "Let me try again."
A few minutes later,
"How do you feel now?"
"It's OK, just average, not as bad as you say... Hey, let me test it again, what can I find out in a few minutes?"
Ten minutes later,
"Old! Zhou——!"
"Xiao Jiang, you should be magnanimous and think long-term... Don't fight, don't fight."
Even if Jiang Tingqiu wanted to grab it, he couldn't snatch it away. After all, Director Zhou was an awakened one and his power was much greater.
But now we live in a society ruled by law, in broad daylight...
Jiang Tingqiu caught nothing.
Director Zhou retracted his hand and said earnestly, "Xiao Jiang, I won't hide it from you. This awakening weapon is very, very powerful. It is much smoother to use than our new weapons. I will try out its specific lethality later. It is estimated to be much stronger than the new weapons."
"But no matter whether it is the new weapon or this sword, they are all awakened weapons, Xiao Jiang."
"You are not an Awakener yet , so you cannot control this weapon. But I am different... How about this? I will transfer 650,000 to you. That's it... Don't get excited."
In the end, Director Zhou reluctantly returned the sword to Jiang Tingqiu.
Because he found out the source of the weapons from Jiang Tingqiu.
Comes from the flame.
But Director Zhou admitted that Xinhuo was mysterious, but standard equipment required a one-stop system and was more scientific, which Xinhuo could not do no matter how you thought about it.
No matter how impossible it seems, the facts are already in front of us.
What Director Zhou was thinking about at this moment was not how the weapon came from, but...
How much stronger is this weapon than new weapons? Can it be purchased in large quantities? Can it be mass-produced?
Director Zhou thought about it and personally went out to buy three weapons: a sword, a spear, and a sword... He used the money from the Baijiang Branch account.
He took the three weapons and flew quickly to the capital of Donghuang Kingdom.
…
Huangdu, the headquarters of the Investigation Bureau.
One of the underground training grounds.
Director Zhou saw the deputy director of the general administration doing push-ups with one thumb on his bare arms.
Deputy Director Huang!
One of the three deputy directors of the General Administration, a big man at the pinnacle of power, and also a powerful awakener!
Rumor has it that he is the second most powerful person in the Investigation Bureau besides the director general !
He had a crew cut and looked to be in his thirties, but Director Zhou had heard that he was actually over fifty. He had an aura of ferocity and when he stood in front of Director Huang, it was as if he was standing in front of a giant beast with its bloody mouth wide open.
It's terrifying.
There were also hideous evil ghost tattoos on his naked arms and chest, and those evil ghost tattoos seemed to come alive.
This is Director Huang’s awakening characteristic.
Legend has it that Director Huang is also a special person with great talent, but his strongest point is his pair of iron fists. He is a master of boxing who has been learning martial arts since he was a child!
Boxing skills, abilities and talent established Director Huang's status.
Standing in front of such a person, Zhou Hai didn't dare to breathe heavily and could only call himself Xiao Zhou.
"Director Huang, these are the three weapons I was talking about."
Zhou Hai presented the three weapons one by one.
Director Huang picked up a sword. The style and appearance of the sword were not much different from the new weapons in their investigation bureau. They were both common and handy types.
He picked it up and swung it lightly. In an instant, a bright silver sword light burst .
Zhou Hai only felt a sharp aura passing through him, and his scalp went numb. He hurriedly said, "Director Huang has great swordsmanship!"
"Boxing, knife skills, sword skills... no matter what you practice to a deep level, they are all interconnected."
"And this knife..."
Director Huang injected life energy, and suddenly, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Such power! Such feel! Such smoothness!
"At least 50% more powerful than our new weapons!"
Director Huang also realized the value of this weapon. If it could be popularized, it would be no exaggeration to say that the combat effectiveness of the entire investigation bureau and special forces team would be raised by two levels.
"Buy as many of these weapons as you can, money is no object."
"I will keep these three weapons for now and have someone send them to the research institute to see if there can be any technological breakthroughs."
Director Huang paused here and said, "Raise the level of concern for that organization called 'Xinhuo'. Try to have as much contact with them as possible and maintain goodwill."
"Also, in addition to the money for purchasing awakening weapons, I will also give them a set of information on how to make awakening weapons..."
Although, judging from the firepower situation they speculated, this weapon is likely to come from some special ability rather than technology.
The research institute spent a long time and a lot of manpower and resources to develop the technology to produce a new generation of weapons.
There can be no torch.
This information may not be useful, but it doesn't hurt to try... Today's technical information is updated very quickly, and you won't lose anything by using a copy as a bargaining chip.
This chip is not the latest type.
It would be even more worthwhile if we could use this opportunity to have in-depth exchanges with Xinhuo and win him over to their investigation bureau.
“There are still capable people among the people.”
Director Huang sighed, "In addition to Xinhuo, Yunling Prefecture also has a very outstanding Guixie hunter, who has extraordinary combat power and is ten or a hundred times more efficient in hunting Guixie than other hunters."
"Shui Zezhou, the head of Pei's group is also a capable person. He hired and trained awakened people to deal with Guixie... From this point of view, he himself is also a powerful awakened person."
"If everyone can do this, why would Donghuang Country fear the fierce disaster?"
