Chapter 574: Chapter 327 New Flying General
"The transformation is complete!"
"Success! Another Flying General has been born!"
"The refinement technique discovered this time is indeed very useful, increasing efficiency by at least thirty percent!"
"I think the previous rumors might be true, the limit of transformation might really be increasing..."
In the Red Capital, within an experimental base.
As the human image and data on the display screen completely froze and gave a safety prompt.
Numerous white-robed experimental staff cheered continuously, and the Chi General Guard stationed there, along with many Mechanical Martial and Transformed People, showed some excitement and admiration, all looking toward a tightly closed experimental cabin door.
Clink! Clang!
A crisp sound rang out, and the sturdy metal cabin door slowly opened.
Cold white mist drifted up, and a figure dressed in a white-red patterned combat uniform appeared.
A middle-aged appearance, somewhat gentle, with a slicked-back hairstyle.
The crossed sword and shield emblem on his chest was still bright red, but everyone present knew he would soon receive the crystal badge symbolizing the position of Flying General, second only to the resplendent Divine General.
"Congratulations, General Wu!"
"Congratulations, congratulations!!"
Voices of congratulations rang out continuously, and a member of the Chi General Guard walked nearby with a warm smile.
In response, Wu Zong smiled and nodded, restrained his aura, and responded gently to all.
"Mr. Wu, General Zhou requests your presence, please go as soon as possible."
Someone came to deliver the message, and Wu Zong nodded lightly.
He left the laboratory immediately, where tall buildings were everywhere outside, with white-gray walls standing, and numerous heavy firepower installations were around the base.
Additionally, warships could be seen traversing the sky, exuding a sense of vigilance everywhere.
"Red General Xu, why does it feel like something’s off?"
Wu Zong asked in confusion, and the guide was at first stunned, then came to a realization.
"General Wu, you might not know yet."
"Chairman Luo was assassinated and killed...."
The low words landed, Wu Zong’s face froze, and he stopped in his tracks.
Chairman Luo is dead?
Assassinated?
His gaze flickered continuously, and he soon heard the other party explain the specific situation.
"This matter is highly valued by the higher-ups, and they’ve found it suspicious, already dispatching people to investigate based on a list of suspects."
"By the way, General Wu, you had a good relationship with Chairman Luo before, do you have any main suspects?"
The other party curiously asked, bringing Wu Zong back to his senses.
Finally, suppressing his turbulent emotions, he glanced at the distant tall building symbolizing the General Association.
And, not far away, where the New Martial research was being conducted, receiving resource support, the Martial Arts Association headquarters established at the Red Capital Academy.
His eyes glinted darkly, and he shook his head.
....
Click.
The Quiet Room door closed, Chen Feng sat cross-legged, setting aside excessive speculation.
He was unsure if anyone else knew about Luo Wantao’s main suspicion of him.
Nor was he certain if the Evil God Church was related to the affair at Yun Gang, or what kind of conspiracy was hidden.
He only knew one thing.
As long as the strength was sufficient, all problems could be solved.
Instinctively, he suppressed distractions.
He summoned the Holy Shield Giant once more.
Though it had shrunk to only two meters, its robust pale-grey form and the heavy aura of the crowning golden armor still made the Quiet Room feel remarkably cramped.
"Just the first stage of transformation, and it’s already reached the Fake Seventh Order."
"If the second transformation is completed, perhaps it could reach the true Seventh Order level?"
Meeting its gaze, Chen Feng contemplated the plans ahead.
The duration the Holy Shield Giant could remain in the present world was greatly extended, and combined with its combat power, an ordinary Flying General was simply not a threat.
If further improvement could be made, the effect would undoubtedly be significant.
"Therefore, I need to quickly find you a suitable large mountain range, to absorb enough Earth Element."
With a rough idea, several mountain ranges sprang to Chen Feng’s mind.
They were among the Eastern Continent’s largest mountain ranges.
Some were in the Northern Red Country, others in Suluo or Nido.
Perennially snow-covered, the peaks stretched in a vast terrain like a giant dragon winding and hiding within the earth’s veins.
Then, acting on his thoughts.
He looked towards the Holy Shield Giant, intending to have it avoid the Heavenly Eyes over the urban areas and first visit the two Snow Peak Mountain ranges in the Northern Red Country to check the alignment with its attributes.
But soon.
"Hmm?"
His eyebrows raised slightly as a thought from the Holy Shield Giant came through the spiritual link.
Chen Feng followed the lead, then saw its palms emitting a dim glow, and unexpectedly, a new small stone statue was born again.
"I see."
His doubts dispersed, watching as the palm-sized small stone statue flew to his hands, Chen Feng understood the Holy Shield Giant’s intention.
The greater the distance between a person and their image, the more it consumed him as a talent, easily increasing the burden.
And considering scenarios requiring its assistance, the Holy Shield Giant was indeed not suited to venture too far.
In contrast, letting the small stone statue handle it could solve the problem.
The other was a lifelike same-source being of the Holy Shield Giant, capable of discerning the compatibility of geological terrains with its attributes from a close range.
Instantly, after a brief consideration.
It wasn’t just the fourth small stone statue before him, Chen Feng also thought of the two small stone statues in Luo River and the Nanjiang Suburb.
The Evil God Church’s tracks had yet to be found, just as the City Association’s drones.
He suspected either they’d left the suburb already, or were hidden too deeply, making them hard to find.
Subsequently, after some consideration, he made a decision, leaving only the third one in the Nanjiang Suburb to continue executing the command to locate the Evil God Church.
As for the two others.
"Number One, go abroad."
"Number Four, head north."
With a single thought, the two small statues set off in different directions.
