Zhou Fushi was moved to tears: "Lord Qin! I have never regretted choosing that burial place!"
Qin Che patted his shoulder: "I understand you. This is what you're pursuing, but no matter what, let's wait until you're better before we talk about it."
Apart from Zhou Fushi, all the people buried in the tomb were to be relocated.
"Take good care of yourself and get well soon. Once you're cured and the danger has passed, I'll put you in full charge of the research and excavation of the tomb."
After calming Zhou Fushi down, Qin Che went to a newly established research lab not far from the blockade zone.
After the black corpse was successfully contained, it became very docile. The surrounding area was a glass enclosure, built entirely to the highest security standards.
The existence of these scholars, who study the Black Corpse, is tantamount to studying psionic technology. Moreover, the existence of this thing is even more special. Its true form may be some kind of artificial creature, yet it can perfectly integrate with the Black Tide world, which touches upon the advanced realm of psionic technology.
The technology of the Empire was more advanced than Qin Che had imagined.
"They can even create this kind of monster; in other words, according to our understanding, it belongs to artificial psionic beings."
An academician from the institute stood beside Qin Che and offered his explanation.
"Is it possible for us to create such a man-made object?" Qin Che asked.
"Your Highness, we started late, and we are still exploring everything. I often doubt that after so much effort, we haven't even touched the threshold." The academician laughed heartily.
He was clearly not in a hurry.
"Research into psionic technology is not something that can be rushed."
"If we are still at the level of 1+1=2, then this monster is like advanced mathematics, which is extremely far away from us."
Qin Che sighed: "Is there no way to speed up the progress?"
The academician shrugged: "Your Highness may not know this, but after the jungle outpost was built, the funding from the higher-ups has been greatly reduced. Now, not only our research institute, but also many people in the Psionic Academy are trying to raise their own money to complete their work."
Qin Che: ……
Good grief, they're targeting me.
He could only say, "Exploring the ice plains is equally important to us."
The academician smiled and said, "Of course we know that. We hope Your Highness will not be anxious. Whether it takes ten or twenty years, our group will eventually find a breakthrough."
"This is a long battle."
"Okay, I understand."
The discovery of the black corpse is exciting, but it will take decades to study it.
Qin Che should have been prepared for this from the beginning.
Research into psionic technology is a long-term battle.
It's not something that can be achieved simply by making a breakthrough.
He spent two days in the sealed-off area of the cemetery, arranging various tasks and coordinating many things.
Then, they returned to the jungle outpost.
Almost instantly, he saw the outpost town and the wasteland fortress that had been under construction for a long time but had never been completed.
The outpost remains bustling with people and vehicles.
Qin Che immediately returned to the administrative district and took care of some work.
Soon someone came to report: "Your Highness, the special forces and backpack troops are about to arrive."
"Where are we?" Qin Che asked without looking up.
"We have reached a point 20 kilometers south of the outpost."
"Okay, I understand."
Qin Che put down his pen and fell into deep thought.
With this group of people, plus Li Zhanhuo's troops stationed at the outpost, he was able to complete his plan.
I wonder how Li Xin and the others are doing back in Bow City...
We need to get in early; the longer we stay, the more likely things will go wrong.
That afternoon, the troops arrived at the outpost.
Backpackers filed in, appeared in the air, landed neatly, and lined up in rows.
Special forces soldiers arrived in armored vehicles along the highway.
Li Zhanhuo stood beside Qin Che, accompanied by guards, feeling somewhat surprised.
Originally, he only needed to greet this group of people, but unexpectedly, even the prince was there.
Are they just some genetically engineered creations? Is it really worth Qin Gong treating them like this?
In fact, this group of special forces soldiers, numbering only a few hundred, is Zhou Qing's only achievement over the years. They are also the first batch of troops, small in number but with the most stable performance.
They have excellent cold resistance, and their strength and speed are also top-notch in terms of genome.
He was sent to the icy plains so that Qin Che could lead and conquer the Yin soldiers.
Since it was their first meeting, Qin Che had to come and see for himself.
At this moment, more buzzing sounds came from the sky.
A dense throng of backpackers flew toward the outpost.
From the armored vehicle, several tall and muscular soldiers jumped down. They were meticulous, marched in unison, and jogged to Qin Che.
"Sir!"
"The entire Supergene Team is assembled! Reporting to you!"
Qin Che also recognized this officer; he had been promoted from the military and had undergone genital surgery, so he was quite capable.
Qin Che even recognized him as Chen Da's protégé, named Zhang Yi.
"Not bad." Qin Che put his hands behind his back and scanned the team.
"Supergene Team, all 213 members, salute to the commander!"
They bowed in unison, everyone lined up in rows, raised their hands, and their movements were exactly the same, perfectly synchronized.
It looks very pleasing.
Li Zhanhuo and his subordinates were also shocked to see this.
"They are indeed a well-trained unit."
"They look so strong."
"Can they defeat the ghost soldiers?"
Although this unit has never been on the battlefield, no one doubts their capabilities.
The backpackers landed one after another, assembled, and lined up to await Qin Che's inspection.
