Volume 3: Rise of the God of War Chapter 607 Secret Laboratory
"Has Gordon's ability level been improved?" Li Jiu asked after thinking for a moment.
"I don't know." Doug shook his head and said, "He didn't tell us about his cultivation, but I guess he hasn't improved yet. After all, he doesn't have a cultivation method, and if he practices on his own, it's unlikely that he can improve his level in just one month. Especially since his ability is the powerful fire ability, it's difficult to practice."
"Okay, I understand." Li Jiu nodded, "Doug, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'll go check on Lin Zhen ."
"Okay, Brother Nine." Doug and the other two stood up and nodded in response.
Afterwards, the group walked out of the main building of the base.
Doug and the other two went to take care of the mercenary group's affairs, while Li Jiu walked towards the secret laboratory in the base that was listed as a forbidden area.
…
Ten minutes later, Li Jiu walked to the entrance of a passage similar to an underground garage.
At this moment, in front of them was a huge silver-gray quantum gate that remained in a hard solid metal state.
Li Jiu knew that behind this door was the laboratory that he had asked Doug to build specifically for Lin Zhen.
“Beep!”
When Li Jiu walked to the gate, a beam of red light suddenly shot out from the quantum gate and instantly enveloped Li Jiu.
"Identity confirmed!"
"Welcome, Master!"
Soon a pleasant female voice was heard from the quantum door.
“Swish!”
Immediately afterwards, this huge metal gate began to flow like mercury.
Seeing this scene, Li Jiu smiled slightly and walked in.
"Tread, step, step..."
After passing through a winding and silent passage, Li Jiu soon arrived at the core hall of the laboratory.
This is where Lin Zhen usually does his research.
Li Jiu looked up and saw that the spacious hall was filled with soft white light and was very bright.
On the floor of this hall, different experimental equipment are placed around, and in the middle is a large table, on which are also some experimental supplies.
Next to the seat in the middle stood a yellow youth in a white coat and a burly brown-skinned man in a military uniform.
Looking closely, these two people were Lin Zhen and Gordon.
"Huh? Why are there people here again?" Suddenly, Lin Zhen, who was fiddling with a Nepalese machete on the table, heard footsteps coming from the laboratory. He frowned and said impatiently, "Doug, why are you guys here again? I've told you many times that when I'm doing research, not only are ordinary mercenaries not allowed to come in, but you three had better not disturb me!"
He thought that Doug and his two companions were here to harass him again.
Gordon, who was standing by, immediately turned around and looked over.
If Doug and the other two came, he would not dare to neglect them. After all, he was not like Lin Zhen, who was just a guest. As a mercenary of the Thunder Leopard Mercenary Group, he still needed to respect Doug and the other two managers, or at least say hello.
"Huh? Captain?" When Gordon turned around and saw that the person coming was Li Jiu, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Looking at Gordon, Li Jiu smiled and nodded.
"What?" Lin Zhen was also surprised, then immediately put down what he was doing and turned around.
"Ah?! Brother Li Jiu, I didn't expect it was really you. I thought it was Doug and the others again." When Lin Zhen saw that it was really Li Jiu, he was immediately surprised.
"Haha, Brother Lin Zhen, from what you said, it seems that Doug and the other three often come to disturb you?" Li Jiu walked over with a smile, "If that's the case, I'll go and warn them later."
"No, no! It's okay, it doesn't matter. They just come to see me occasionally out of curiosity." Lin Zhen hurriedly shook his head.
"That's good." Li Jiu nodded, looked at the Nepalese army knife on the table, and asked curiously: "What are you researching?"
"Haha, it's too early to talk about research now. I just have a preliminary idea and plan to develop a new type of melee weapon." Lin Zhen picked up the Nepalese machete on the table and said with a smile.
"Oh? A new type of melee weapon..." Li Jiu said in surprise, carefully looking at the Nepalese machete in Lin Zhen's hand.
Judging from the appearance, Li Jiu could be sure that the Nepalese machete in Lin Zhen's hand was just an ordinary one.
"Why do you want to study melee weapons instead of firearms?" After watching for a while, Li Jiu retracted his gaze and asked in confusion.
You know, on the battlefield, mercenaries mainly use firearms to kill enemies, while melee weapons can only be used in some special circumstances.
Therefore, in Li Jiu's opinion, Lin Zhen's research on firearms is naturally more valuable than research on melee weapons.
"I am also researching firearms." Lin Zhen explained with a smile, "Moreover, I have developed research plans for not only firearms, but also throwing weapons, defensive equipment, etc."
"You are studying so many directions at the same time, do you have enough energy?" Li Jiu asked with some concern.
"Haha, Brother Li Jiu, you have to know that researching weapons is different from manufacturing weapons. When manufacturing weapons, you only need to have the corresponding design plan to mass-produce weapons. But when researching, it is not that simple." Lin Zhen explained: "In the process of research, there are always various difficulties. Sometimes, when I encounter a bottleneck that cannot be solved in a short period of time when researching a certain weapon, I will not waste time on it, but turn to research other weapons. In this way, not only can it effectively save time, but also when researching other weapons, the bottleneck encountered before may suddenly be solved."
After listening to Lin Zhen's explanation, Li Jiu nodded silently.
"As for why I am currently researching melee weapons, there is actually another important reason." Lin Zhen continued, with a mysterious smile on his face.
"Oh? What's the reason?" Li Jiu asked curiously.
"Brother Li Jiu, you should know that the Defender Empire has already used biochemical zombies and biochemical maniacs on a large scale on various battlefields. These biochemical monsters have also posed a great threat to our soldiers in battle." Lin Zhen explained slowly: "And, it is foreseeable that in the near future, the enemy's official biochemical warriors, biochemical ghosts, will appear on the battlefield , and by then, those biochemical warriors will undoubtedly pose a greater threat to our soldiers."
