Seeing that Wang Zheng seemed a little embarrassed, Dang Liantao stopped teasing him and led him inside.

They greeted him and helped him into the car while introducing him to the car.

"The military compound is quite large. There will be spare cars available at the entrance. You can just register when you need them. If you have time, you can take your driving test, which will make it easier to come and go. Of course, if you want, you can go there yourself."

Your officer's uniform will be given to you when you leave. There's no need for you to wear it every time you come in; after all, your main focus right now is on your studies..."

As Wang Zheng listened to Dang Liantao's introduction, he silently memorized the route to the Heavenly Demon Research Institute.

Although this wasn't Wang Zheng's first time entering the military compound, he was once again shocked by its size. Moreover, he heard that this was only a part of the entire military region, with a complete training base and a monster battle center located behind it.

Wang Zheng suddenly had a brilliant idea. Since these were all Awakened soldiers, they might have a beast processing base here. He couldn't just let the soldiers eat ordinary food. He could find an opportunity to investigate and see if he could get some benefits out of them.

However, there's no rush to reveal his information yet. After all, even Chu Tianxing only knows that killing strange beasts can increase the progress of his visualization. No one knows that he can absorb spiritual energy.

This is Wang Zheng's biggest secret.

Then I can use this to discuss with Old Man Chu, ask about the specific situation in each war zone, and see if he can take me to the battlefield.

Wang Zheng was lost in thought the whole way, and the car soon arrived at the entrance of the research institute.

However, Wang Zheng had memorized the layout of the military region perfectly. With his current mental strength, he would be able to get lost as long as he walked along the route once.

After getting off the car, without much small talk, Dang Liantao led Wang Zheng directly into the laboratory.

As soon as he entered, Gu Min strode over and warmly took Wang Zheng's hand.

"Well, we've finally been waiting for you, kid. You didn't even bother to come if we hadn't called you. Didn't you want your dad to participate in the experiment? Why don't you care about the progress of the experiment at all?"

Hearing this, Wang Zheng knew that his father's matter was basically settled, and replied with a smile, "Professor Gu, I can't usually come into this military region, and recently the teachers at school have been giving me extra lessons to catch up on my studies, so my workload is quite heavy."

He wasn't lying; the substitute teachers were now interacting with him intensely, and compared to regular students, his academic pressure was indeed quite high.

Gu Min laughed heartily: "Hahaha, so that's what it is. How's your study going? I even had to talk to your principal about this. Is it a bit difficult for you?"

"hiss--"

Wang Zheng looked surprised and realized he had a toothache.

Well, so it was you, old man, who was behind this. No wonder the teachers' questions were getting more and more outrageous; it turns out the source of the problem was here.

Wang Zheng paused for a moment, then stammered, "It's barely passable, a bit strenuous."

This isn't Wang Zheng being modest or deliberately making things up. Although the book's content can be scanned into one's brain, it's important to understand that all extended and supplementary questions involve multiple categories of knowledge points.

Moreover, academic research is not about rote memorization; it requires a thorough understanding and integration of various knowledge points.

Therefore, Wang Zheng's recent classroom performance has been rather average. He can answer some questions to some extent, but it's out of the question that he can answer them completely correctly and in line with the teachers' standard answers.

Although Wang Zheng himself wanted to hide his talents as well.

Even so, this performance far exceeded the expectations of the teachers of each subject.

It can only be said that Wang Zheng now has the foundation of a true academic talent, but if he wants to achieve more, he still needs to integrate the knowledge in his mind.

However, if Gu Min had communicated with the teachers at Nanjing University and knew about Wang Zheng's current knowledge base, he would probably be even less likely to let Wang Zheng go.

Wang Zheng was also glad that Professor Gu did not hold an honorary professorship at Nanjing University, so he would not have any interaction with the teachers at Nanjing University.

Hearing Wang Zheng say this, Professor Gu Min didn't think much of it and led Wang Zheng and a group of staff members directly to the deepest basement.

Grandpa Gu looked to be in very good spirits, with a ruddy complexion.

Perhaps he felt that he could finally make a breakthrough in his research on the Heavenly Demon, so he was extra excited and kept talking to Wang Zheng.

Wang Zheng suddenly remembered something and asked Professor Gu, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Uncle Qian in a long time. Are they still living in the military region?"

Gu Min replied with a smile, "Qian Ruibo has already gone back, but Qian Shufen is still here. It has been basically confirmed that the Heavenly Demon will not have any mental effects after it dissolves in her body, otherwise this experiment would not have been started."

We kept her here simply to facilitate our subsequent experimental observations, since she was essentially the only sample available.

Wang Zheng hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Then... has Old Mrs. Qian awakened?"

Gu Min laughed and kept everyone in suspense.

"Once this is all over, I'll take you to see her in person."
