Chapter 554 Prototype Report (asking for monthly votes)

Inside the laboratory.

Inspiration burst out in the mind of Master Ci Ji, and as her heart of Taoism retreated slightly, the design drawings in her eyes were rapidly generated, and as she moved, one drawing after another was drawn.

Finally, looking at the entire design drawing of the Yin device, especially the strange patterns on the shell of the Dharmakaya, Ji Ji couldn't help but frown slightly, thinking to himself: "Recently, for the experiments of the Divine Dharmakaya, I have also designed a lot of experimental machines."

"But why... I always end up with these weird patterns and patterns?"

Ci Ji shook her head and tried hard to recall the source of her inspiration, but she couldn't figure it out, which made her feel more and more confused.

…

Zhang Yu memorized the stocking-shaped magic weapon he designed, then extracted some of the inspiration and communicated with Ye Xingli.

After all, the requirement for copying the other party's Dao seed is that both parties complete the design of a refining product together.

Zhang Yu thought that if he directly sent the design drawings to the other party, wouldn’t it become purely his own design? How could he achieve the requirement of copying the Tao Seed?

Hearing Zhang Yu's inspiration, Ye Xingli nodded repeatedly, her eyes shining: "Your idea is good. Wait a minute, I need to write it down."

With a flash of light and shadow in his eyes, Ye Xingli continued, "But I don't have time to discuss the design you mentioned right now. I need to finish the design drawings on hand first."

After Zhang Yu and Ye Xingli had a conversation, they realized that they had misjudged each other's thoughts.

"So, Senior Sister isn't designing a magical weapon or a Dharma Skeleton for herself...but is designing a refining product suitable for college students."

From what Zhang Yu knew, although Ye Xingli's number of fans had skyrocketed during this period, there was little improvement in her sales.

The overall reason is very simple. Wanfa University and the products it sells are too high-end, and Ye Xingli's fans are too poor and cannot afford these products.

Ye Xingli sighed and said, "53% of my fans are college students, and 35% are junior college students. Their incomes are very low, so they have little willingness to buy products that cost more than 1 spirit coin."

"Although we can find some low-end brands to sell, they lack differentiation and core competitiveness, and those companies don't offer us many discounts."

"I was thinking... could I design a product that would be unique to me, a product that would be more suitable for the poor."

"But I've been thinking about it these past few days, and I always feel that something is wrong."

Ye Xingli turned to look at Zhang Yu and smiled, "After talking with you just now, I suddenly understood."

"What I lack is communication, the exchange of relevant intelligence."

"I know so little about the situations of lower-school and college students, how can I design products that meet their needs?"

Zhang Yu's heart moved, and he said, "I have a lot of connections in the college and school circles. I can help you collect information and complete the design."

Ye Xingli: "Thank you, Zhang Yu."

But after saying this, Ye Xingli thought about it and sent another message: [1 Spirit Coin]

Looking at the message sent by the other party, Zhang Yu thought to himself: "As expected, the senior sister who gave me money feels more sincere to me."

As for where to collect information about the poor, it was too easy for Zhang Yu. After all, he knew so many poor people.

Zhang Yu directly sent a questionnaire to the fellow villagers group, and then received various replies every day.

There is an eye skeleton that is priced at 1 spirit coin and has performance comparable to the Heavenly Eye.

I hope to have a mouth without taste and able to quickly digest feces and urine.

There is hope that you will not need to go to the toilet and your butt will not produce feces and urine.

There is also a Dharmakaya that hopes to transform its feet into wheels and its hands into various tools.

There is also hope to be able to wear the skin of demons and monsters to resist the damage to the body caused by the environment.

Zhang Yu took a casual look and found that these requirements were basically about being as inhuman as possible, as if they were asking him to gradually transform himself from a living person into an animal, and then into a tool.

However, Zhang Yu was not in a hurry to activate the power of Tiangong Kaiwu. After all, this would cause his Taoist faith to decline.

Neither he nor Magnetism has sufficient understanding of the lowest level ecology of the university. It is likely to be a waste if they rashly activate the power of nature at this moment.

Zhang Yu planned to collect information for a while longer, then launch Tiangong Kaiwu to complete the design drawings, and then communicate with Ye Xingli.

…

In the blink of an eye, more than a week has passed.

It is already the beginning of February.

Inside Jin Jun's laboratory.

Accompanied by bursts of light rising into the sky, golden flames gushed out from the prototype machine, and the entire prototype machine slowly floated up.

There was a burst of cheers and applause in the laboratory.

Jin Jun nodded and smiled repeatedly as he watched this scene.

"Finally it worked."

Almost two months have passed since Jin Jun last completed the Level 5 prototype.

During this period, he was under tremendous pressure and faced endless financial expenditures. Seeing all kinds of expenses going over budget, he finally completed the refining of the level 11 prototype machine today.

He knew that at this moment, he was qualified to report for military service.

“But it’s not enough.”

"The success rate at level 11 is still too low. We need to go a bit higher."

With a hint of satisfaction, Jin Jun announced to all the assistants in the laboratory that they would stop working for half a day. The assistants could take the opportunity to take online classes, relax, and then return to the laboratory to continue working.

He knew that several of his assistants were about to take final exams and were under a lot of pressure from related studies. Having them take online classes and prepare for the exams could effectively relieve their stress.

But just two hours later, Jin Jun, who had just felt proud of himself, immediately became nervous.

"What did you say?" Jin Jun looked at the message from a friend and asked solemnly, "Has Zhang Yu submitted his military certificate for review?"

His good friend's name is Bei Wufeng, who is the second-ranked student in the weapon refining department and a senior brother who has always been of great help to Jin Jun.

When Jin Jun heard the news from Bei Wufeng, he was in disbelief at first.

He felt that he had increased the money and manpower to improve the speed, efficiency and quality to the extreme. It was hard to imagine that Zhang Yu could also participate in the judging at this moment?

"The prototype machine Zhang Yu refined exceeded level 11? Level 12? Level 13? Or something like that?"

Jin Jun shook his head: "How is that possible?"

Jin Jun instinctively didn't want to believe this.

"Or does he want to take the military certificate review right after reaching level 11?"

Jin Jun didn't think Zhang Yu was a fool either.

“The success rate is too low.”

Jin Jun, wavering between the two possibilities, had to hesitate about his next choice.

“Should I participate in the review?”

After much deliberation, Jin Jun decided to collect intelligence first and investigate what was going on with Zhang Yu.

So he skillfully called Su Yunni over and told her the situation.

Su Yunni was slightly surprised when she heard this, and quickly sent a message to Zi Yunzhen to inquire, but she did not receive a reply for a long time.

Jin Jun urged, "Where is she? Go find her directly."

"As long as she is willing to reveal the details of Zhang Yu's situation, money is not a problem. I can give it to her."

…

On a construction site somewhere in a university town.

The metamagnetic channel is being excavated for reconstruction.

Similar things have been happening everywhere in the university town in the past few months, and Zi Yunzhen is no longer surprised.

But looking at the construction site in front of her, she still looked helpless, and Zhang Yu's instructions came to her mind.

Zhang Yu smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Zi, the lab work has been completed. You can go to the construction site for the rest of your working time this month."

"Ah?" Zi Yunzhen said with a face full of resistance: "Construction site? Boss, I...how can I go to a place like that?"

"What's going on at the construction site?" Zhang Yu replied, "I'm your boss. I need you to help at the construction site, so go and help."

"I've taken on a lot of projects on the construction site that were contracted by the Refining Department. You used to help the Refining Department, too."

"Why? You don't want your name added to the prototype project?"

Thinking of the Tianrihuangshen project in the other party's hands and the prototype machine that had a great chance of passing the review, Zi Yunzhen finally came to the construction site.

Ying Xin took her along the way and introduced the surrounding environment and today's work.

At this moment, Fu Xinyao, who was not far away, saw Zi Yunzhen and his eyes lit up: "A student from the Weapon Refining Department? I finally waited for him!"

As a secret agent of Hehuan University stationed in Wanfa University, Fu Xinyao has been quietly collecting information from all aspects.

However, due to the complicated authority management of the entire university town and the devastation of the economic crisis, Fu Xin Medicine was forced to stop production for a long time.

After much difficulty, he reconnected with the civil engineering department and found Su Yanyang, the civil engineering student who was said to have a close relationship with Zhang Yu.

As a result, after an in-depth discussion, Fu Xinyao was horrified to find that he was becoming more and more lazy and almost wanted to join the "two-day-off" movement.

Fortunately, she overcame this idea with her amazing willpower and devoted herself to work again.

At this moment, Fu Xinyao looked at Zi Yunzhen and thought to himself that his idea was indeed correct. With the revival of the Civil Engineering Department and the launch of various projects, students from the Refining Department were gradually drawn in.

On the other side, Zi Yunzhen had not been working for long when she saw Su Yunni appear on the construction site.

"Su Yunni?" Zi Yun asked curiously, "Why are you here too?"

Su Yunni looked at Zi Yunzhen, whose body was thin and whose Dharmakaya shell was showing a lot of wear and tear, and asked, "It seems like you have been working overtime a lot recently."

Zi Yunzhen smiled faintly and said, "After all, besides Zhang Yu, I'm the only one left in the project team. There's so much work to do that it's almost impossible to finish it. But it gives me more opportunities to practice, and the progress I've made is huge."

When Su Yunni heard this, a flash of envy flashed in her eyes. She didn't have so many opportunities in Jin Jun's project team. There were too many experts, and she had to fight for every job to have a chance to do it.

Su Yunni asked again, "Isn't the lab busy today? What made you want to come to the construction site?"
