Chapter 546 Taking Human Form (asking for monthly ticket)
After Zi Yunzhen politely rejected Zhang Yu, she saw that the other party sent another message.
Zhang Yu: If you are willing to join the project, you can ask me any technical questions about Tianrihuangshen.
Zhang Yu: If your magic weapon has problems, I can also help you repair and maintain it for free.
Zi Yun really had no interest in the first benefit Zhang Yu offered.
Although the opponent's equipment refining ability is quite impressive, how long has he been in the equipment refining department? How long has he been learning the Tianrihuang Divine Technique?
Zi Yunzhen had previously watched Zhang Yu practice all sorts of messy weapon-refining techniques in the laboratory.
She didn't believe that in just a few months, the other party could master the relevant technology of Tianrihuangshen?
However, the free maintenance and repair of magic weapons mentioned later aroused Zi Yun's true interest.
She thought to herself, "I'll just join temporarily and have Zhang Yu help me repair a few worn-out magic weapons. Then I can find a reason to withdraw."
Thinking of this, Zi Yunzhen agreed to Zhang Yu again.
The two parties agreed on a one-week probation period, and Zi Yunzhen would participate in the project as Zhang Yu's assistant, and they would observe each other. If she felt it was not suitable, she could withdraw.
…
On this day, Zi Yunzhen had just arrived at the laboratory when she received a document sent by Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu said, "You have experience in processing alloy materials, right?"
"According to the requirements in the document I sent you, help me do the initial screening and then refine the impurities. This is your job today."
Zi Yunzhen looked at the workload required in the document and asked in surprise, "So much to refine in one day?"
Zhang Yu nodded. "This is just the beginning. I have high expectations for you. Your work efficiency is crucial to the progress of our entire project team. I hope you can work hard and grow as quickly as possible..."
Zi Yunzhen watched the other person turn and leave, thinking to herself, "You want me to prepare so many materials... can you use them all?"
She glanced at the several pieces of bones that had been refined on the lab table beside her and thought to herself, "Is this all they've accomplished? They're still a long way from Jin Jun's level."
Zi Yunzhen shook her head. Although she was complaining in her heart, she still obediently prepared the materials and waited for Zhang Yu to help her repair the magic weapon before finding an excuse to leave.
Half an hour later, Zi Yunzhen had just prepared the second batch of materials when she found that most of the first batch of materials she had just prepared were gone.
"Um?"
"Using it so quickly?"
She was slightly startled, and couldn't help frowning: "Will it all be wasted?"
In Zi Yunzhen's opinion, Zhang Yu had just started refining the Tianri Huangshen not long ago, and the materials were used up so quickly that he must have failed repeatedly.
So she turned to look at the experimental table where Zhang Yu was, and found that in the rising true fire, a ball of milky white material was gradually taking shape in it.
At the same time, the refining equipment around him continuously emitted bolts of lightning and fire, and under Zhang Yu's control, the materials were etched with mana circuits.
Watching Zhang Yu's extremely skillful movements, Zi Yunzhen felt that in the blink of an eye, the other party was about to complete the refining of this bone.
“So fast?!”
Seeing this scene, Zi Yunzhen was shocked. She looked at the new finished product beside her and said, "It's already made? How can it be so fast?"
She remembered that she had heard Su Yunni talk about the refining of the skeletal part of the prototype machine in the small group.
"It seems that Jin Jun's side is not that fast either?"
Thinking of this, Zi Yun couldn't help but send a message to Su Yunni: How long did it take you to completely refine a piece of bone?
Looking at the other party's reply, Zi Yunzhen thought to herself, "Two or three hours?"
She looked up at Zhang Yu's lab table again and thought, "This is going to be several times faster, right?"
"Is this normal?"
She couldn't help but wonder whether there was a quality problem with the puppet skeleton refined by Zhang Yu.
In the next few days, Zi Yunzhen was even more shocked to find that as her proficiency gradually increased, the speed of preparing materials became faster and faster, and Zhang Yu's speed of refining equipment was also accelerating.
It turned out that the previous speed was not Zhang Yu's limit, but his own speed in washing materials was slowing him down.
"Zi Yunzhen, are you still not well?"
"The next batch should be quicker."
"I'm almost done here."
Zi Yun really felt like Zhang Yu was holding a whip behind her and constantly urging her on. Whenever she felt that the speed at which she prepared the materials just met his requirements, his refining speed would increase a little bit.
Then Zi Yunzhen could only gasp for breath, exert all her magic power, and try her best to increase her speed again.
She felt as if Zhang Yu had drained all her strength and thoughts from her as soon as she entered the laboratory. Apart from the materials in front of her, she no longer had time to think about anything else.
After working tirelessly for over a week, Zi Yunzhen looked at the humanoid skeleton in disbelief and said, "Is this... done?"
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Well, it's a little slower than I expected, but it's not bad."
"Slow?" Zi Yunzhen thought to herself, "How slow is that?!"
She couldn't help but look at the chat history between herself and Su Yunni in her eyes again.
Zi Yunzhen asked: How long did it take you to complete the refining of the skeletal system?
Su Yunni: About a month or so
Su Yunni: The speed is so fast, mainly because Senior Jin Jun hired several senior students to assist
Su Yunni: But in pursuit of speed, a lot of materials were wasted.
Su Yunni: Why do you think of asking these questions?
Zi Yunzhen replied: I am working on a project with Zhang Yu.
Zi Yunzhen continued: I was just curious about the difference between the two sides and just asked casually.
Su Yunni: Zhang Yu is definitely not as good as Senior Jin Jun, so don't be discouraged. If there is a vacancy here, I will recommend you to Senior Jin Jun.
On the other side, Zi Yunzhen turned her gaze to the human-shaped skeleton in front of her, and saw the densely packed magic circuits in it, flashing with golden magic light.
And with every flash of light, it seemed that one could see the bones changing between reality and illusion, with a faint flash of fire.
Zhang Yu said, "Next, you will accompany me to complete the test."
"If there are no quality issues, we will begin refining the nervous system next."
Watching these bones pass the strength test, high temperature test, and magic power conduction test in succession, and then transform into streaks of flames under Zhang Yu's control... Zi Yunzhen was becoming more and more surprised.
She looked at this scene in some disbelief. If she had not seen Zhang Yu refine these bones piece by piece with her own eyes during the past period of time, she would probably have suspected that he had asked someone else to refine them for him.
Before she knew it, Zi Yunzhen had quietly forgotten her original plan to leave in a week.
"Zhang Yu...maybe he can actually defeat Jin Jun, pass the Tianri Huangshen's review first, and obtain his military certificate."
"But even if I don't defeat Jin Jun, it shouldn't be a problem to follow Zhang Yu through the Tianrihuangshen."
"If we defeat Jin Jun..."
Thinking of the result and impact of Zhang Yu and herself, two seniors, defeating Jin Jun and winning the military certificates, as well as the various experiences, reputations, and added points to their resumes, Zi Yunzhen couldn't help but feel a little excited.
At this moment, Zi Yunzhen had already made up her mind to stay under Zhang Yu and study hard.
Zhang Yu looked at Zi Yunzhen's serious face, but he seemed to have expected this.
He had long anticipated that Zi Yunzhen would not be sincere in joining the project from the beginning.
However, Zhang Yu was confident that he could convince the other party.
After all, he was also a student of the weapon refining department, and he knew too well what the other party was thinking and planning.
Compared to making money, what they want more is to quickly accumulate experience, hone their refining skills, and accumulate valuable project experience...
And all of these can be obtained under his hands.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "There's no need to raise Zi Yun's salary. She'll definitely stay here."
So in the following time, Zhang Yu took Zi Yunzhen to continuously advance the refining of the prototype machine, and Zi Yunzhen's daily working hours gradually increased from 14 hours to 16 hours, 20 hours, and finally to 24 hours a day.
Seeing the rapid progress of the project, Zi Yunzhen did not mention overtime pay and salary increase to Zhang Yu.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
When it was mid-November, Zi Yunzhen looked at the prototype machine in front of her that had begun to take human form, and she was still a little shocked.
"In just over a month, the first assembly is almost complete?"
Zi Yunzhen looked at the chat history between herself and Su Yunni again and thought to herself, "It seems that Jin Jun is almost done with the first assembly."
Although the project progress on both sides is almost the same, Zi Yun really knows that there is a difference between completion and completion. Zhang Yu's catching up speed is too terrifying.
"But why has Zhang Yu been out for so long these past two days?"
Zi Yunzhen couldn't help but think in her heart: "This is a critical moment, how can you be distracted?!"
"Hurry up and surpass Jin Jun completely in one go. The right thing to do is to quickly get your military certificate."
Thinking of this, Zi Yun really felt it necessary to talk to Zhang Yu about it so that he could concentrate more.
…
at the same time.
Outside the Research Department office.
Zhang Yu sat in the waiting chair, a hint of impatience gradually appearing on his face.
After a long time, he was finally called in by Feng Yuhan. He looked at the other party and said slowly: "Young man, how come you have no patience at all?"
Zhang Yu frowned and said, "Teacher Feng, I'm busy with the project at hand..."
Feng Yuhan waved his hand to stop the other party and said, "No matter how important the project you have is, can it be as important as the school project?"
"Don't you know how much the principal values the matter of the Divine Transformation Corpse?"
"From now on, you must fully cooperate with the project team's inspection. Please stop whatever you are doing."
Zhang Yu stared at Feng Yuhan in front of him and suddenly said, "Teacher Feng, are you targeting me?"
Feng Yuhan smiled slightly and said, "Why would a teacher like me target a student like you?"
He waved his hand and said casually, "Go ahead. Don't forget to cooperate with the worksheet I gave you. If you delay school matters, the principal will blame you, and even your teacher won't be able to protect you..."
Looking at Zhang Yu's departing back, Feng Yuhan could of course feel the other party's dissatisfaction, resentment and anger.
But in his opinion, what does a student's dissatisfaction matter? After holding it in for a long time, the other party will naturally digest it.
