The towering iron thorn net separates the inside and outside into two worlds. The outside is lined with orderly but indifferent torture troops, while the inside is filled with chilling screams from time to time.
This was Gu Chen's first serious visit to the research institute of the Ministry of Industry. Although he had heard about the inhumane research here, everything he went through still made him instinctively feel uncomfortable.
On the way, he saw skinned aliens who were hung to dry on iron thorn nets like animals.
He also saw millions of aliens in a crystal. They lived in a small world and worked hard to fight against natural disasters, but he didn't know that researchers from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were recording their lives and deaths while laughing and joking.
Life seems to be extremely cheap in this place.
Gu Chen had no expression on his face, quickened his pace, and soon arrived outside Kong Sheng's exclusive research institute.
"Please inform fellow Daoist Kong that Gu Chen is visiting."
After a few instructions to the guard at the door, Gu Chen waited nearby.
Not long after, Kong Sheng with green hair walked out quickly. When he saw Gu Chen, he seemed very enthusiastic.
"Little brother Gu, when I heard that you were released from the prison star, I was happier than anyone else."
Kong Sheng exchanged pleasantries, as if he and Gu Chen were real brothers, and wanted to put his arm around his shoulders to show his closeness.
Gu Chen calmly moved his position, kept his distance, and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Kong should know Gu's purpose of coming, right?"
"Of course I know. Fellow Taoist Ouyang has already told me."
Kong Sheng smiled and didn't mind Gu Chen's alienation and waved to him.
"Come, come! Let me give you a good introduction. Just tell me what kind of weapons you need."
Gu Chen then followed him into the research institute, and under Kong Sheng's introduction, he started looking around.
There are many research institutes in the Ministry of Industry. Most of the other research institutes are jointly owned by many researchers, but Kong Sheng, the head of the Ministry of Industry, owns one alone.
Kong Sheng's research institute looks much cleaner and more comfortable than other places. It is divided into three floors: upper, middle and lower. The layout looks very open.
There are many huge glazed pillars placed in the hall on the first floor, and there are all kinds of glazed pillars, which can even be called bizarre things, as if they were specially placed here for people to watch.
"The displays on this first floor are all my mature works, many of which have been put into practice. For the weapons that Brother Gu needs to choose for this trip to Lei County, I suggest you choose them here." Kong Sheng said.
"I wonder which weapons here are more suitable for this mission?" Gu Chen looked around and asked casually.
There are indeed many of those glazed pillars that look like weapons at first glance, but there are also some that are just too different.
Gu Chen even saw the corpses of aliens soaked in solution in some glass pillars. It was difficult to figure out their abilities and power.
"Haha, it's boring to tell Brother Gu directly, why don't you give me a guess?" Kong Sheng blinked.
"Gu's eyesight is poor, I'm afraid he can't recognize it."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, little brother Gu, just give it a try, there will be rewards." Kong Sheng said mysteriously.
"Reward?" Gu Chen's eyes showed confusion.
"Under normal circumstances, if a person with the position of General of Heavenly Punishment comes to apply for weapons from me, I will allow him to bring out one weapon at most."
"But if his eyesight is strong enough and he can identify the three most valuable killing weapons from here, I will allow him to bring out one more, or even choose among the three most valuable killing weapons."
Kong Sheng explained that this was a small game rule he had made, and everyone in the criminal world who had been to him knew it.
"I see."
Gu Chen suddenly realized, then smiled bitterly and said, "There are so many exhibits here, it is really difficult to pick out the three most valuable killing weapons."
"It is precisely because of this that the reward is valuable. How about it, little brother Gu, do you want to try it?" Kong Sheng said expectantly.
"Of course I want to give it a try."
Gu Chen nodded. Regardless of whether the weapons here were against Tianhe or not, their lethality was genuine. It would be helpful for his mission this time. Naturally, he could bring one more with him.
"Then please."
Kong Sheng stepped aside and watched Gu Chen choose weapons with a smile.
Gu Chen's consciousness spread out immediately, trying to sense the strength of each weapon's energy. Unexpectedly, when encountering the glazed pillar, his consciousness bounced back one after another!
His eyes showed surprise, and Kong Sheng beside him said, "Spiritual consciousness cannot see the true value of these weapons. You have to rely on your eyesight."
Gu Chen remained silent and withdrew his consciousness. The next moment, his dark eyes slowly turned into deep purple, and there was a faint flash of lightning.
Shinto, Deep Sea Purple Eye!
After Gu Chen's original Purple Eyes were integrated with the ability of the Wangwen Divine Body, his ability in sensing became very powerful.
And after he absorbed the origin of the Poseidon, he indirectly obtained one of his pupil skills, called the Deep Sea Light Seeking Pupil.
The world where Neptune lives is filled with vast oceans, and most living creatures live in the pitch-black, bottomless deep sea.
Neptune was born with a pair of deep-sea light-seeking pupils, which could help him capture the energy fluctuations of any creature in the deep sea.
Within the line of sight of his deep-sea light-seeking pupils, the energy in all living things will glow. With the help of these pupils, he can easily judge the enemy's strength and physical condition.
It was through the magic of these eyes that the Poseidon rose to prominence at a young age and eventually grew into an emperor.
And after he reached the Emperor Realm, the eyes he was born with were also sublimated to the extreme, and he turned them into a pupil technique that could spy on the origins of others.
Gu Chen accidentally obtained this pupil technique when he absorbed the origin of the Sea Emperor. After more than half a year of practice, he successfully integrated it with the ability of the Purple Extreme Pupil and the Wangwen Divine Body, turning it into a powerful pupil technique.
And because of the integration of the Deep Sea Light Seeking Pupil, the color of the pupils during the operation also changes to pure deep purple, which is very similar to the original Purple Extreme Pupil.
At this moment, Gu Chen used the Deep Sea Purple Eye, and the many glazed pillars in front of him suddenly changed unusually, and the weapons inside released light of different strengths and colors.
What he couldn't see with his spiritual consciousness before, he could clearly see it at this moment!
"Poseidon's pupil technique is indeed unique. After improvement, even if there are restrictions blocking it, the strength of the source inside each weapon, and even what kind of source they belong to, can be clearly understood."
Gu Chen looked at the many weapons with obvious strengths and weaknesses, and thought to himself.
"Brother Gu, why are you standing still? You can walk around and take a look." Kong Sheng reminded Gu Chen when he saw that he hadn't been moving for a long time.
Gu Chen subconsciously glanced at Kong Sheng with his deep-sea purple pupils, and his pupils suddenly shrank like needles!
