Chapter 109 Taiyin-Guangcheng Research Institute?
Soon, everything was settled, or came to an end. Elder Hu and others, looking tired, hurried back.
"In fact, the cost of the 'Truth' rocket launcher is not too high. We set the price of a single rocket at 500 spirit stones. However, the disadvantage is that in a conventional environment, its storage life is only 15 to 20 years. Of course, if it is stored in a space magic weapon, its storage life will be extended indefinitely."
Lu Ying was discussing business with Elder Hu, while Ma Lou from the laboratory nearby explained, "There is another problem, which is that its hit rate not only tests skills, but also depends on luck. We have tried to add tracking symbols to improve the hit rate, but unfortunately, all the talismans will be burned by the high temperature during flight and cannot play their full role."
Hearing this, Elder Hu frowned.
He did intend to buy these strange magic weapons from the disciples of Taiyin Sect, mainly because he wanted to have certain negotiating qualifications when Piaomiao Xian Sect came knocking on his door in the future - at least with the support of Jiaomu Star Lord and Xinyue Star Lord, and with the weapons having indeed incredible lethality, he could barely get to the negotiating table.
But if this kind of weapon cannot be used to hit anywhere it is pointed at, its deterrent effect will be greatly reduced.
Although Elder Hu did not understand the principles of these magic weapons, he was confident after practicing for hundreds of years, so he asked doubtfully: "Well... why not try to carve a tracking symbol on the outer wall?"
"Ah? There is such a thing!?"
The laboratory horse building performed a pupil earthquake on the spot.
You know, as a Blue Star person who was born and raised on Blue Star, she had never heard of such things as immortal cultivation and spiritual energy in her nearly ten years of academic career in the laboratory Malou. So when she was researching the psychic version of thermal weapons, she was forced to learn all the knowledge of immortal cultivation in Guixu Realm and used it immediately.
This results in that both the laboratory Ma Lou and the Giant in the Guard Palace, including other scientific researchers who sneaked in, can only extract useful information from the materials recorded in the sect's library, and their inherent impression of cultivating immortals often causes them to fall into misunderstandings.
Like the tracking symbol.
"That's right. The art of talismans does not refer to drawing talismans on talisman paper, but to the talismans themselves," Elder Hu explained patiently. "The reason why they are drawn on talisman paper is just to make it easier to carry and use. In fact, they can be engraved on gold, silver, or carved into jade. Of course, there are still some differences. For example, many talismans drawn on talisman paper can be completed with the help of different spiritual materials, but talismans engraved on utensils, gold, or stone can only rely on the cultivation of the talisman practitioner himself."
"So that's how it is..."
Ma Lou from the laboratory suddenly realized something, but immediately asked with sparkling eyes: "We don't know much about cultivation, and we know nothing about refining weapons and talismans. This has caused great difficulties and constraints for us to develop weapons like 'Truth'. I wonder if your disciples are interested in participating in our research institute and developing new products together?"
Elder Hu was quite tempted, but he had already seen that these two Taiyin sect disciples who had no cultivation seemed to not care about the confidentiality of these magic weapons at all, and seemed a little ignorant of worldly affairs. In front of the elders of the sect, he couldn't take advantage of them, so he tactfully reminded them: "This... This should involve the inheritance and secrets of the master, right?"
"There are indeed some relatively confidential contents,"
Elder Lu Ying took over the conversation before the two silly researchers spoke again, but she also followed the laboratory's Ma Lou's meaning and said: "However, we can sign some agreements, such as the experimental results cannot be leaked, the products cannot be sold privately, etc. Of course, we can further discuss the details of the division of labor, with Taiyin specializing in research and production and Guangcheng distributing and selling on behalf of others. As for the profit model and the proportion of sharing, we need to discuss it in detail.
"Moreover, strictly speaking, these things have actually been eliminated by us, but they are limited by the raw materials and..."
At this point, Elder Lu Ying glanced at Fang Xianyu, who was listening with a smile, and then continued, "Due to the shortage of raw materials and personnel, we can only produce these defective products with limited power and obvious defects for the time being. If conditions permit, our results will definitely surprise you."
Elder Hu was still hesitating, but several Guangcheng Sect disciples who returned with injuries were already shocked by these words.
Although many of the words were new combinations that they had never heard of before, this did not affect their understanding of the general meaning, especially the last sentence that believed that something with a power comparable to the attack of a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage was a defective product, which brought great shock to all the disciples of Guangcheng Sect.
"Defective product!?"
"She calls the kind of magic that even our sect leader can't perform a defective product!?"
"That shouldn't be a spell. It looks a bit like a True Fire Thunderbolt Talisman?"
"The difference is huge! Even a hundred True Fire Thunderbolt Talismans may not be as powerful as that magic weapon!"
"That may not be the case. Last time, I used a dozen high-grade True Fire Thunderbolt Talismans to blast to death a thousand-year-old monster."
"That's not as powerful as this rocket launcher!"
"They even said it was a defective product!"
"The disciples of the Taiyin Sect all look very ferocious!"
"Actually, it's not that bad. Just now, they insisted on surrounding me and refused to let me go out to fight..."
"Is this the reason why you are the only one among us who is unharmed?"
"Even my own senior sister has never spoiled me like this! You kid!"
The disciples of Guangcheng Sect were discussing quietly, and the topic was getting more and more off-topic, and they were getting more and more self-indulgent. Elder Hu coughed heavily, drowning out the discussion, and said, "Daoyou, I can't refuse your kindness, but I don't know what the rules are for 'joining the institute'. Do I have to become a disciple of Taiyin?"
Lu Ying said sincerely, "Hey, how is that possible! We can set up a Taiyin-Guangcheng joint research institute, and the research results will be shared by the two sects. Therefore, the personnel involved in the research... uh, the monks, the sect they belong to will not affect the research and development of the institute's projects. In addition, if the participating monks can independently complete their own product research and development in the future, their results will have nothing to do with the institute, and we will not interfere with the use and sale of their own results. Of course, if it is a project in the joint research institute, the ownership will still belong to the institute."
Before Elder Hu could say anything, Elder Du hurriedly instructed the disciples around him, "You, and you, the rest of you, go and get the top three from last year's weapon refining competition... No, the top five, no no no, the top ten, all the top ten, come here!"
"Wait! Lao Du, you are too impatient!"
Elder Hu first stopped the disciples who were about to leave, then looked at Elder Du in reproach, and then added to the disciples with a pleasant face: "In addition to refining weapons, please also come to the top ten in the talisman competition!"
Elder Du: “…”
