"Fire in the hole!"
Wang Zheng let out a strange cry and then hurled the spiritual energy crystal in his hand at the dagger in the distance.
'That little brat definitely did it on purpose!!!'
Tang Guoan was so angry at Wang Zheng that his lips trembled, and he ultimately couldn't utter the last word.
Huo Lianrong, who had initially shown some dissatisfaction upon hearing Tang Guoan say that the testing was unnecessary, immediately showed excitement when he saw Wang Zheng decisively throw out the spirit crystal in his hand.
Then, with a whooshing sound, the black spirit crystal, glowing with fire, drew a graceful arc in mid-air before crashing into the dagger stuck in the target.
As the black and red candle flames surged forth, enveloping the dagger, the black and red flames grew stronger and stronger before suddenly exploding, sending countless black and red sparks flying everywhere, turning the entire air crimson.
In an instant, the air seemed to distort.
Immediately following was a "crack" sound, a crisp and loud shattering sound, and countless cracks instantly appeared on the A-grade dagger. In just over ten seconds, it turned into a pile of fragments, which scattered into countless powders under the flames.
The dagger, enveloped in candle flames, turned to ashes in an instant. Along with the scattered sparks of black flame, it vanished without a trace, leaving only a foul odor, proving that what had just happened was not an illusion.
"good!!!"
Huo Lianrong completely ignored Tang Guoan's ugly expression and cheered loudly. The old professor was genuinely excited about the power of the "spiritual energy grenade".
Although Tang Guoan was heartbroken at losing an A-grade dagger, he was also amazed by the strength of the candle flame.
At this moment, even the most foolish person would understand that the reason why this spirit grenade was so effective had absolutely nothing to do with the elemental scarab beetle.
It's entirely because this brat's fire ability is too unique.
No wonder they have the resources to offer such astonishing terms.
If this can really solve the problem of active detonation, let alone alien beasts, just by feeding this kid's Awakener level up, productivity will be maxed out...
Let alone one per person, even if only one is provided to a squad, what will future alien beasts be worth?
Generally, the solution is to suppress them with the firepower of the army group, and to deal with special high-level individuals directly with "spiritual energy grenades". With the power of the whole country mobilized, there will be no other strange beasts in the country except for the Demon King within half a year...
Although the Chinese military would certainly not do that, and if they really wanted to expel the alien beasts from the country, they would do so slowly and deliberately so that the demon kings would not notice anything amiss, this did not stop Tang Guoan from imagining a future without alien beasts.
As for Wang Zheng's outrageous demands, Tang Guoan had already figured it out. What did it have to do with him? As long as he reported the current situation truthfully, whether he agreed or not, others would come to discuss it.
He had already made up his mind that he would simply act as a mouthpiece, without any subjective judgment whatsoever.
As for his nephew's awakening, he'll just find him an ordinary Heavenly Demon after returning to the capital. Anyway, according to the news from Jingnan, that general only evolved once more. There are nine levels in total, so there shouldn't be much difference.
Hmm... what difference could there be between the lowest levels? They're all the same... even if they're different, they're still the same!
However, once the cooperation here is finalized, I will definitely use this credit to get more of the spirit crystals that Wang Zheng calls "spiritual energy grenades" back to my troops.
What officer wouldn't cherish the soldiers under his command? Tang Guoan felt excited just thinking about how his 38th Army could be the first to be equipped with these spirit grenades.
He admitted that he had misjudged the situation, but he couldn't be blamed for it. The power of the spirit crystals created by the extraordinary masters in the capital was only so-so. Who would have thought that Wang Zheng was so awesome?
Thinking back to the report from Yunnan that praised Wang Zheng's spirit crystal for its considerable power, and how dismissive Wang Zheng had been at the time, Tang Guoan wanted nothing more than to slap himself a few times and then fly to Yunnan to hang up that Yunnan military region clerk and give him a good beating.
This is what you call powerful? Your firepower is merely so-so that it can refine materials for a demon king?
This is clearly incredibly powerful and unparalleled in the world!
Compared to the batch of spirit energy grenades in Wang Zheng's hands, what those guys at the Imperial Capital Research Institute made was nothing but toys, ugh, not even as good as toys!
Anyway, he's not going to be the villain anymore. Not only that, he's going to try his best to get along with Wang Zheng so that he can get more of these charming yet dangerous little cuties on his side later...
As for Professor Huo Lianrong from another research institute, he stared at Wang Zheng with such blatant malice that he seemed to want to strip Wang Zheng naked and study him thoroughly.
He then took out a crimson spiritual energy crystal, infused it with some spiritual energy, activated it, and then threw it out.
"Bang—"
A muffled thud rippled through the air, and the thrown spirit crystal exploded instantly. Looking at the seemingly ordinary fireball in the distance, Huo Lianrong asked directly:
"Major Wang, I'd like to ask, judging from the state of the spirit crystal in your hand, it's obvious that its internal state is extremely unstable, which is why it exploded instantly after leaving your control."
This is different from the spiritual energy crystals we developed ourselves. As you can see, the spiritual crystals I just threw out still need to be activated by manually inputting spiritual energy.
