Chapter 557 Picking up a package

Apart from the monitors and operating instruments on the wall, there are basically no other common equipment in the laboratory. Instead, there are many decorative items with unclear meanings in many places.

For example, a large aquarium measuring 3m x 5m x 8m; a belted armor resembling that of an ancient Iron Maiden; a seemingly ordinary metal sphere suspended in mid-air; a small bottle of orange-yellow gummies... This should be prepared for Gao Bin and Jin Ping'an.

The two have similar abilities. Before a potion specifically developed for Jin Ping'an that can reduce the negative effects of regression is created, he can temporarily eat Gao Bin's gummy candies to tide him over.

Xia Qiyuan walked through a series of display cases and arrived at the innermost room of the laboratory.

To be honest, every time Xia Qiyuan came to Yue Yangyan's lab, he felt like he had entered a performance art general store, the kind that was located inside a whale's belly.

Reaching the door, Xia Qiyuan rang the doorbell and opened the door without waiting for a response from the person inside.

"So what urgent matter do you want to see me about?"

Xia Qiyuan stood at the doorway, leaning against the doorframe, and asked.

Wearing a monocle, Yue Yangyan did not respond, continuing to observe the petri dish with his glasses.

Xia Qiyuan sighed: "I'm very busy, so just say what you need to say quickly and don't waste my time."

"How is their training progress?" Yue Yangyan asked without looking up.

"It's the same as always. Jin Ping'an keeps himself locked up in the training ground all day trying to master the strange things, while Gao Bin takes every opportunity to slack off and doesn't waste any chance to rest."

Xia Qiyuan said in a flippant tone, "Why don't you just leave this kind of thing to the instructors inside the base? Or do you not even trust the people inside the Countermeasures Bureau?"

"This has nothing to do with whether you trust him or not. Ordinary instructors can't teach Gao Bin. Only someone of the same level as you can teach him how to properly use the Heat Death Armor."

As for Jin Ping'an, whether he's herding one sheep or a flock, it's all the same. He knows that hard training won't take up much of your time... How's Gao Bin's mastery of the armored vehicle going?

Xia Qiyuan said seriously, "Gao Bin's talent is even greater than I imagined. He can now last for thirty seconds with the Heat Death Armor at 100% efficiency."

Yue Yangyan put away the monocular eye and gently tapped his finger on the petri dish.

The latter instantly disappeared from the table and was teleported to the sealed experimental cabinet next to it.

"Thirty seconds... even though it's full-power operation with heat death... it's so-so."

Yue Yangyan's reaction to this result was less than satisfactory.

"The previous user's highest score was only 92%. Isn't it a bit too harsh to call it 'so-so'?"

This evaluation was so harsh that even Xia Qiyuan, a workaholic, couldn't stand it.

Gao Bin may slack off, but he is very serious during training. He is the kind of person who is fully focused when he should be studying and plays freely when he should be playing.

Moreover, the armor utilization rate reached 100%, and apart from Xia Qiyuan himself, Gao Bin is one of only two known people to have reached this level of operation.

The previous heat death and reincarnation were 92% and 89% respectively.

Judging solely from his future potential, Gao Bin has already surpassed his predecessors.

Yue Yangyan shook his head and smiled, "Not harsh at all. If we can't even achieve 100% utilization, how can we fight against the Apostle Society's Scarlet Ice?"
It's true that the rumors say Heat Death could hold off most of the Apostles single-handedly, but we all know that there are significant differences between Apostles.

Being able to fully control a power is merely a basic requirement for fighting Fei Bing. We all know just how troublesome her abilities are. If Han Wenshan hadn't arrived in time, the Special Affairs Bureau might not exist today.

"Aishitsady, the goddess of ice?"

Xia Qiyuan frowned, rubbing his temple with one hand, looking quite troubled: "Indeed, if Gao Bin is no match for her, then I might have to be a woman for the rest of my life."

Yue Yangyan walked over to Xia Qiyuan and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be so pessimistic. Maybe you'll be instantly killed by the Thousand-Faced Man from the very beginning?"

"Thank you so much!"

Xia Qiyuan slapped Yue Yangyan's hand away in annoyance: "Although I don't know how resistant you are to the supernatural, you're in contact with world-destroying supernatural beings all day long and you're perfectly fine, so you're at least an apostle."

Don't you ever consider getting yourself a suit of armor? Even if you don't go to the battlefield, at least you could protect yourself in unexpected situations, right?

How do you know I didn't prepare one for myself?

Yue Yangyan spread his hands: "Among the batch of armors that were taken away by the Thousand Faces and the Tyrant in Nevada City back then, there were some that I had prepared for myself."

When the topic of what happened ten years ago came up, Xia Qiyuan's expression turned sour.

He was forced to become He Jun because of that incident.

"Did you prepare that set of Phaseless Armor for yourself?" Xia Qiyuan asked.

Yue Yangyan understood Xia Qiyuan's meaning: "To correct you, the Phaseless Armor is part of the DX project, which I prepared for the DX1105B. The other set of Phaseless Armor is for my own survival."

Xia Qiyuan said quietly, "It's a pity that they are now spoils of war for the Apostles Society. I hope that in the future we will not have to face the armor we made ourselves."

Yue Yangyan didn't seem to care much: "Don't worry, only those who share the same origin as Project DX can wear the Formless Armor. Tyrant can't use the Formless Armor."

Xia Qiyuan said seriously, "Alright, I've talked to you for so long, now you should tell me why you called me here, right? Is it just to find out about Gao Bin's training progress?"

"I'd like you to help me pick up a package."

Yue Yangyan put on his signature smile.

Whenever he flashes that smile, some people are bound to suffer.

"express delivery?"

"Have you heard of Storm Geese? He's a fusion warrior who was captured by the Sea Heart Society a few years ago."

The strange power within him, though generally ineffective against a single target, possesses immense destructive power, capable of easily unleashing hurricanes and tsunamis.

In recent years, many small, mysterious organizations have been largely wiped out by the Sea Heart Society. It's time to contain Storm Gith.

Yue Yangyan raised his hand and directly pulled out a cylindrical object resembling a thermos from thin air.

"In the next few days, Storm Geese and some members of the Sea Heart Society will appear at the Broken Boundary Mountain, which is located at the border of Neva City and Thousand Flower City. There is no need to leave any survivors; just bring back the strange thing inside Geese's body."

In addition, I also need to bring back the DX818A, the target of his mission to Asia Union. It is an early prototype of the DX project, and I don't know its exact form now.

You'll find out if you search for the relevant memories in Gis's mind yourself.

Yue Yangyan's tone was very relaxed, but his words were full of murderous intent.

Clearly, he had no intention of letting any of these people go.

Without proper authorization, the Countermeasures Bureau has the authority to eliminate any outsiders.
