"The fire-fighting mecha my lab is researching?"
"That's right, that one." The highest leader nodded slightly. "Mingqiu, this is meant to be revealed to the West. You haven't modified it further, have you?"
Jing Mingqiu scratched his head. "I got a bit carried away and made some minor changes. But don't worry, I know this is meant to trick them. If they follow the direction of my modifications, they'll definitely hit a dead end."
"Whether they hit a dead end or not isn't important," the highest leader said with a smile. "As long as it can divert Western attention and ensure your safety, that's enough."
Time flies when you're having fun. Having been unexpectedly confined to the underground laboratory for more than half a month, Jing Mingqiu could no longer wait.
With one person on each side, they shared the same large quilt.
This was possible because all three had used gene serums, which greatly enhanced their body's flexibility.
During this process, they successfully unlocked many extremely difficult poses.
Three days later.
Jing Mingqiu, along with two freshly manufactured fire-fighting mechas from his lab, arrived at the central fire station in Dongyang City, Longguo.
Captain Zeng Hanliang of the fire station personally greeted them at the entrance.
"I won't waste your time with pleasantries. Practice makes perfect. You can try them out first, and if anything isn't suitable, we'll make adjustments."
Jing Mingqiu waved his hand, and Zhao Geng, along with other lab personnel, pushed out the two newly developed fire-fighting mechas.
Zeng Hanliang, who was very interested in Jing Mingqiu's creations that had made quite a stir in military exercises, immediately assigned two firefighters to test the mechas.
With Zhao Geng's assistance, the two firefighters donned the mechas. Zeng Hanliang first ignited a wooden basin for a preliminary test.
After the two firefighters confirmed they felt no heat, he poured a bottle of alcohol into the basin to increase the flame temperature.
From several hundred degrees to thousands of degrees, from one fire source to over a dozen.
As the test progressed, the difficulty was gradually increased.
The entire process was rigorous, orderly, and steadily advanced.
Two hours later, all tests were completed. Looking at the fire-fighting mechas that, despite facing complex fires, sustained no damage and maintained normal surface temperatures, preventing secondary burns to rescued individuals, Zeng Hanliang beamed with joy.
To facilitate data transfer among the spies in the team, Jing Mingqiu specifically instructed, "Zhao Geng, record all experimental data, then distribute it, and have everyone write a paper based on this data and submit it."
Zhao Geng nodded earnestly. "Yes, Dr. Jing. I've recorded everything. I'll send it to the others now."
"Captain Zeng, if there's nothing else, I'll be going..."
Jing Mingqiu greeted Zeng Hanliang and was about to say goodbye when a firefighter, covered in scars and limping, approached.
"Professor Jing, I know your technology is very advanced. Can you make me a mechanical prosthetic? I don't want to leave."
After speaking, the firefighter lowered his head deeply.
Seeing this, Zeng Hanliang quickly stepped forward to explain, "Professor Jing, please don't be angry. This is Pan Li, our team's chief firefighter and the previous captain. Over three months ago, he suffered severe burns while rescuing a child. He was in critical condition for a long time, but unfortunately, his right leg couldn't be saved."
"We provided him with the best prosthetic limb, but he still can't regain his original mobility."
"Professor Jing, if it's convenient for you, could you please help make a mechanical prosthetic?"
Zeng Hanliang knew that his request was very presumptuous and his voice grew softer as he spoke.
Jing Mingqiu held great respect for firefighters who risked their lives and readily agreed.
"No problem. Come for data testing tomorrow, and I'll make one for him personally..."
Mid-sentence, Jing Mingqiu's ear suddenly caught a system prompt.
[Beep!]
[Mission complete.]
[System level upgraded, new functions unlocked.]
[Congratulations to the host for acquiring Advanced Carbon-based Biological Modification Technology and Advanced Industrial Modification Technology.]
[Research points accumulated to full.]
[New upgrade mission being generated...]
Jing Mingqiu eagerly opened the new functions. After reading their descriptions, his eyes lit up instantly.
"Fake is always fake, not as good as the real thing. Do you want a new leg?"
Hearing this, Pan Li was stunned. After a long pause, he spoke again, "Professor Jing, can this really work?"
"Of course," Jing Mingqiu said, patting his chest, about to give his word. However, Mo Ruixue, who had been silently following him, suddenly poked him and whispered in his ear.
"A'Qiu, as agreed, you're not skilled in medicine."
Jing Mingqiu then remembered. To avoid a jarring transition, he deliberately raised his voice slightly and complained in a tone audible to others.
"Xue'er, don't worry. Although this technology is still classified, it's already fully mature and human trials are about to begin."
Then, Jing Mingqiu turned to Pan Li. "A friend of mine is researching limb regeneration technology and is currently looking for volunteers. Would you be willing?"
"Willing, of course, I'm willing!" Pan Li agreed without hesitation.
Jing Mingqiu took out his phone and opened a WeChat QR code. "Alright, let's add each other as friends. I'll tell my friend tomorrow, and we can contact each other then."
Pan Li, overwhelmed with gratitude, took out his phone. "Okay! Okay!"
After adding each other, Jing Mingqiu busied himself with researching the system's newly unlocked functions. He left Zhao Geng and the others to continue collecting data and then left the fire station with Mo Ruixue.
Dongyang City University of Science and Technology, Principal's Office.
Jing Mingqiu, with Mo Ruixue, barged directly into the office. Feng Weiguo, who was working, was startled.
"Mingqiu, what's wrong? Such a hurry?"
"Two things," Jing Mingqiu flipped his wrist and took out a super-large capacity USB drive he had just redeemed from the system space, tossing it over.
"First, the ten large nuclear power plants are all completed. This is the production process for the cry-new battery."
Although similar things had happened more than once, Feng Weiguo's hands still trembled as he took the USB drive tossed by Jing Mingqiu.
Seeing this, Jing Mingqiu's lips twitched involuntarily. "Principal, you don't need to be so careful. It's just a USB drive. If it breaks, I have new ones."
"Next is the second matter. I've invented a potion that can regenerate severed limbs, but it requires a specially designed treatment pod to be effective."
"Go and communicate with the highest leader. Ask him to arrange a large medical equipment research institute to assist me with my work."
"You, what did you say?" Feng Weiguo had witnessed many of Jing Mingqiu's miraculous methods, but upon hearing this, he couldn't help but doubt his ears. "Limb regeneration, is this kind of technology something we can achieve now?"
Jing Mingqiu shrugged. "Of course, we can. Is it that difficult?"
After receiving Jing Mingqiu's affirmative reply, Feng Weiguo didn't dare to delay. He immediately took out his satellite phone and called the highest leader.
At the Northwest Sea office, the highest leader was wrestling with the latest intelligence when the phone suddenly rang...
