Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

Wang Song's message was about some political allies testing the waters, asking if Lin Rui could provide them with some political funds.

This person was indeed an established politician with an extremely extensive network.

Wang Song's many friends were distributed across fourteen base cities, all of whom were quite famous local politicians.

Although the vast majority of them had their own parties and couldn't join the "Bright Front," Wang Song made it clear that these people would do their utmost to take care of the interests of their financial backer.

Some of the independent candidates also had promising potential, and Wang Song believed their chances of winning were quite high. As long as Lin Rui was willing to spend the money, he was confident he could pull them into this newly formed political party.

"Ambitious!" Lin Rui only chatted with Wang Song for a few moments before he slightly shook his head and exhibited a sarcastic smile.

This man, who hadn't mentioned anything at the dinner but later circumvented Fang Ranran to contact him alone, obviously had some ulterior motives.

However, Wang Song's mention of two independent candidates from the Seventh Base City piqued Lin Rui's interest.

The Seventh Base City was another joint-administered city of the East Asia Republic and also a city he was currently very interested in.

Huang Fuqing's secret experimental base was located there, and Lin Guangming had also been eyeing the Heart of Light number 7 in the Seventh Base City, constantly urging Lin Rui to go there and bring the "Bright Holy Sect" back on track.

She believed that Heart of Light number 7 was the most amenable to assimilation among all the artificial intelligences owned by the Bright Holy Sect.

Most crucially, this base city had a significant number of rampant gangsters as well.

Thunder Admiral's "Wind of Light" operation had been very effective, leaving the Children's Song Killer recently unable to find a suitable target.

As Lin Rui discussed company matters with Fei Yunlai and Gong Hengdao, he inquired about the details from Wang Song. His final response was, "We can donate a little on various fronts, but I'm currently not interested in the political scene outside of the Ninth Base City."

This guy clearly planned to ride on the wind, hoping to use Lin Rui's money to cultivate his own connections, really thinking he was a fool with a lot of money?

This person was also not trustworthy, especially when facing the heavy pressure from the "Longevity Association" and "Divine Light Army" in the future; politicians like Wang Song might abandon him at the first opportunity.

Lin Rui indeed hoped to establish his own political power, but the precondition was that he could control it.

He had no interest in political forces that he could not influence or rely on.

However, it might be worth trying something in the Seventh Base City.

This could potentially add two more Congressmen to the "Bright Front."

These two independent candidates indeed had some base, but it was not enough to win.

However, with his help, the situation could be different.

Lin Rui was originally planning to visit the Alien Company at Hailan to check the situation and meet with the executives and employee representatives of Hailan Company.

But after receiving another message from the Armored Biological Research Institute, he had to turn the car around and head toward the freight docks.

By the time Lin Rui arrived at the institute, his newly hired director and several top researchers were fiercely arguing in the first meeting room.

The atmosphere here was extremely stiff and cold; the former employees of Jin San Armament Studio all sat below, their expressions awkward, unsure of what to do.

They didn't know whom to support; their director, recommended by BOSS's old teacher, was recruited by BOSS with a hefty sum; the top researchers were esteemed students of Professor Sima.

The key was that both sides seemed to have valid points in their academic discussion—

When Lin Rui walked in, they all swiftly turned their gazes toward him.

After all, following the BOSS could never be wrong.

Even the few people arguing on the stage all looked towards Lin Rui.

"There's no need for further debate," Lin Rui said confidently as he approached, "Professor Sima's research philosophy is correct. Integrating Armament with our own body's meridian system is the future, and it is also the main research direction of our institute."

However, the institute director turned pale upon hearing this and replied coldly, "I will hand you my resignation later. I've only been here for a few days. I will return every penny of the signing fee Mr. Lin previously gave me."

After saying this, he strode out like a shooting star.

Seeing this, Lin Rui felt a headache coming on, thinking that this was indeed a stubborn mule, quick to drop everything at the slightest disagreement.

However, this Professor Xie Qing was very capable, extraordinarily so!

Lin Rui had not yet seen his development skills, only getting a glimpse through the academic papers he published. But just the management skills Xie Qing demonstrated were enough to make him worth every effort to retain.

After taking office, in just seven days, by improving the internal procedures for Armament production within the institute, he had drastically increased both the yield and output, while also reducing costs.

He had also adjusted the internal staff allocation, enhancing the production capacity of the 60 Armament production groups within the institute, and raising the production limit of the Armaments.

Currently, there were 12 production groups within the institute capable of manufacturing SS-grade Armament, previously there were only seven.

There were also five production groups now capable of manufacturing SS+ grade Armament, previously there were only two.

Professor Xie himself was a skilled prosthetic doctor, mastering SSS-grade Armament production techniques.

And crucially, he was also knowledgeable about machinery, possessing 6S-grade mechanical abilities, capable of independently improving and optimizing the performance of various instruments.

"Professor Xie, please wait."

Lin Rui turned around and said, "I am now going to produce an Armament, one that can lead the future evolution of mankind! After seeing this Armament, if you still wish to resign, then I, Lin, will not require the signing fee and will respectfully bid you farewell."

Xie Qing, who had intended to ignore Lin Rui, had already reached the door of the conference room.

When he heard Lin Rui's claim about an 'Armament leading the future evolution of mankind,' he couldn't help but scoff.

He stopped and turned his head, looking at Lin Rui with a sarcastic expression, "Director Lin, you can produce an Armament? And lead the future of human evolution?"

He shook his head lightly, "Sima Lin's approach has already failed! It is true that Armament can be combined with the human body's meridian system to achieve certain enhancements, but decades of federation research have proven that this approach is not viable. Sima Lin himself has already given up on it, turning instead to research the Abyss, knowing that he cannot achieve his dream of earning an academician title with the human meridian project."

Lin Rui responded with a carefree smile, "Professor Sima's concept is correct, but he also made a mistake in direction. To truly integrate Armament with our own body's meridian system, it can't just rely on surgical implantation and connection methods."

He then sent over a document, "This is my private research, currently confidential. If Professor Xie is interested, you can sign this confidentiality agreement, and I assure you that what follows will not disappoint you."

After seeing the confidential document sent by Lin Rui, Xie Qing couldn't help but chuckle again.

He then signed his name without hesitation, seeing that watching Lin Rui produce an Armament could earn him a signing fee of 200 million federal coins, why not?

Xie Qing foresaw that he might not find a suitable job in the coming years.

Thus, he highly valued this sum of money.

But this Director Lin, not even 20 years old and having studied under Sima Lin for less than a year, what kind of Armament could he produce? Let's just hope it doesn't end up as a laughing stock.

Lin Rui looked again at the special-grade researchers, "If you gentlemen are interested, you can also sign the confidentiality agreement and come witness it."

These individuals were taken aback, this junior brother could actually produce Armament? They hadn't heard the teacher mention this before?

The junior brother was even so bold as to claim to 'lead the future human evolution,' which made them all feel agitated.

They agreed that researching human meridians was important, significantly strengthening human Biochemical Martial Arts, but still far from what Lin Rui claimed.

The many employees from Jin San Armament Studio in the audience were also astonished; their BOSS could produce Armaments? Could it be fake?
