Dimensional Store System In Apocalypse - Chapter 368
His question made Valerian smile as her gaze landed on the prototype generator on the tray the robot was holding. And from how familiar Zhang Qin Feng was with Valerian’s attitude, he could easily guess her current mood right now.
From what Zhang Qin Feng knew, Valerian was someone who wouldn’t bat an eyelid on things she was not interested in.
In fact, she was the best person to comment on this prototype.
After all, Valerian was the one that created the Atom Battery Cell. Even if she was humble, about 85% of all the power-consuming equipment Wind Base Group was using came from utilizing her creation.
Perhaps the only thing that wasn’t utilizing the Atom Battery Cell she made was the Vermilion Empress, which already came with a twin nuclear generator.
Her creation was so widely used that even this shelter is currently powered by ten Hundred-Atom-Cell Generators.
“Well, I guess I should comment a little since you asked. Honestly speaking, the prototype generator Lucian and his team designed is superior to my own.” Valerian said. From the way she starts her sentence, it seems she had quite a good impression of what the prototype can do.
“Although immediate conversion might be impossible, I believe that the Prismatic Crystal Generator could outshine our current Atom-Cell Generator in terms of stability.”
“Of course, my reason for saying so was due to the fact we controlled the production of this Duranium Crystal and Prismatic Crystal. Unlike the shards that we have to risk our life to collect, I believe the former has more reason for us to heavily invest in.” Valerian added.
The way she explained things from her point of view made Zhang Qin Feng happy. Of course, Lucian was the most content person right now, and his fund for the incoming month can be said to be secured from this presentation alone.
“Heh… Lucian.” Zhang Qin Feng chuckled and called the head researcher’s name for his attention.
“Yes, Boss!” Lucian quickly responded the moment his name was called. The moment of truth is here, whether Zhang Qin Feng is happy with what he had seen.
“Congratulations. You just secured your team’s research fund for your next month.” Zhang Qin Feng said with a smile.
Lucian, the head researcher, looked agitated after listening to what Zhang Qin Feng had just said. He might be the one to jump all around the facility right now if Zhang Qin Feng was not standing beside him.
The four of them soon came out through the exit near the fourth and final section. Although Zhang Qin Feng was disappointed that he wasn’t shown what the prototype generator could do, he believes that day won’t be too far ahead.
This also signals the end of his visiting tour for today. But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing else for him to do.
A few other researchers also tried to show the result of their standalone research to gain some funds to support their own research. But out of the ten participants, only two successfully get the sponsorship from Zhang Qin Feng.
Surprisingly, one of the two lucky researchers was the one who suggested further research on the Blood Plant that provides the nutrients to those leeches.
As for the other one, he’s had quite an interesting theory about harnessing and overclocking the generator to create a sudden spike in energy performance.
Lucian got his next month’s research budget of 50,000 Duranium Shards along with 2,000 extra for the two researchers. As the team leader, it was common to have him holding the funds until they were needed.
And before leaving the facility, Zhang Qin Feng made sure he had a private talk with the female researcher who suggested venturing deeper into the Blood Plant’s biology. She was given an entirely different task on what she had to do.
She’s also ordered to relocate her experimentation document to the Vermilion Empress. And from this moment, the person she’ll be reporting to will no longer be Lucian but Valerian.
She would be the second individual after Valerian to access Zhang Qin Feng’s secret Blood Vault from this moment onward. Even the most trustable assistants of Valerian were not allowed to get closer to this vault that holds the secret to Zhang Qin Feng’s Genetic Sample.
“I’ll brief you on what you’ll have to do, but start making your preparation to be relocated. I hope you’re ready to give your all to bring me the result I’m looking for.” Zhang Qin Feng told the female researcher.
It seems he had high hope for her. Although the number of blood samples was limited in his blood vault, it should be enough for her to produce some results.
After leaving everything to Valerian to take care of on his behalf, Zhang Qin Feng leaves the facility with Hoya tagging along. His next destination was the lifeline for the people living inside this Shelter No: 213.
“Please get everyone else out of the facility. I had something to discuss with you in private.” Zhang Qin Feng said as his attention was placed on the Cloning Facility’s control panel.
“As you wish, boss.” Hoya nodded and pointed at everyone else responsible for this facility. After a short five minutes of wait, the entire facility was vacated and locked to provide them with sufficient privacy.
“I’m sure you have an idea why I choose to speak with you at this place, correct?” Zhang Qin Feng’s attention was still on the facility’s controlling panel as he started to talk. He was trying to give Hoya a hint on what he wanted to do.
“Of course, Boss.” Hoya-2231 nodded.
“Feel free to ask if you think you’re ready to request for the clones to be activated from their slumber. We have already received all the consent from other residents that this facility will be open for you to use,” he added.
As the person allowed to freely come and go between the shelter and Vermilion Empress, it was no secret from Hoya that Zhang Qin Feng is currently suffering from the lack of manpower. With so many to do in the shelter and the vessel, they would eventually collapse from overworking.
Furthermore, the base’s workload would only get more, and not less. But Hoya seems to be underestimating Zhang Qin Feng’s appetite a little.
