From the reception hall of the Investigation Bureau, we moved directly to the storage and research building for the spirits of strange beasts.
At this time, Zhang Chaoqiang, led by Huang Feng and Bai Lu, stepped into the research building.
And along the way.
Bai Lu and Huang Feng both had to explain some basic situations to Zhang Chaoqiang.
Because the research building is filled with all the exotic beasts that have been captured and harvested by the Exotic Beast Investigation Bureau over the thousands of years since its establishment.
Therefore, the spirits of these exotic beasts are extremely precious, and as the objects of research by the investigators, there must not be any mistakes in these things.
Otherwise, the investigators’ hard work of nearly several years would be wasted.
Therefore, the entire process of capturing, storing, trying to absorb, verifying the abilities of the alien beasts, and various records, etc., are all personal tasks that their investigators need to perform.
It is also the most basic code of conduct in the Exotic Beast Investigation Bureau.
Therefore, in the entire Alien Beast Investigation Bureau, investigators need to conduct a series of assessments based on various status standards, and then through each process, they will be able to harvest the alien beasts in the archives...
All information is recorded.
Anyway, along the way, Huang Feng and Bai Lu introduced basic information to Zhang Chaoqiang.
The three of them stepped into the elevator which was equipped with layers of codes and iris locks for constant protection, and then headed straight underground.
Bai Lu introduced: "The incomplete spirits of the strange beasts are all stored on the tenth floor underground! The purpose of this location is because the tenth floor underground has a time-space converter..."
"Time-Space Converter?"
Zhang Chaoqiang heard some new words from Bai Lu, so he also expressed his interests and questions.
"The so-called time-space converter is like a set of formations. Its function is to transfer the objects in the converter through time and space in a short period of time.
The transfer here is mainly the transfer of spatial position, transferring to a place that also has a time-space converter.
Because the spirits of exotic animals are so important, it is not an exaggeration to describe them as the most precious treasures of our Exotic Animal Investigation Bureau."
After listening to Bai Lu's introduction at this moment, Huang Feng nodded heavily to show his agreement as the elevator ran smoothly all the way down.
Then he continued to talk about his topic: "In order to avoid some unforeseen accidents in the Investigation Bureau, we also put the most valuable assets in the Investigation Bureau, that is, those that can be used by warriors...
It brings mechanical capabilities, and the spirits of alien beasts, which are very important for our research and investigation of alien beast groups, are placed in the time and space converter.
Once an accident occurs and the Investigation Bureau finds any clues, they can immediately relocate the precious spirits of these exotic animals!"
"Of course, Zhang Chaoqiang, you are now at our headquarters. In fact, the Investigation Bureau does not only have one headquarters. We are stationed in the Central Country and several surrounding countries, and we also have many branches!"
"Therefore, these beast spirits can be teleported to any of our branch bases at will, without having to worry about being plundered by people with ulterior motives!"
In response, with a "ding" sound, the elevator indicated that it had reached the tenth underground floor of the research building. As the elevator door slowly opened, Bai Lu and Huang Feng patted Zhang Chaoqiang on the shoulder and motioned for him to follow them.
He also said that if there was a chance in the future, he would take him to visit the branch base. Although the scale there was not large, it was at least not as big as the headquarters in Zhongzhou City.
But at least it is hidden enough. Zhang Chaoqiang has no idea where those strongholds are located!
As the elevator door opened, dazzling light shone through the gap in the door, filling Zhang Chaoqiang's entire field of vision.
What followed was a window display full of technology...
To Zhang Chaoqiang, it felt like a series of glass cabinets, but what was inside was not the kind of clothes and gold and silver jewelry for sale...
It's some turbid gas...
No, not gas!
Zhang Chaoqiang took a closer look and found that his spiritual power and perception were simply unable to penetrate into the glass window to feel the objects in the window.
You know, there is not much difference between Zhang Chaoqiang's perception and that of the monster, and he can't even penetrate into it to perceive it.
Obviously, this seemingly ordinary glass display window actually has a lot of secrets!
There were also colorful, gray, gas-like floating substances inside. After thinking about it, there was only one possibility, and that was the spirits of those strange beasts.
"This is, those strange beasts?"
"Yes."
Once you come out of the elevator and walk through a corridor, you have officially stepped into the storage room for the alien beast spirits.
"I thought you used turnover bottles for storage."
Then Huang Feng and Bai Lu changed Zhang Chaoqiang's impression of them.
The turnover bottles are only used to temporarily store the spirits of the strange beasts, but back in the storage room, these are ordinary glass display windows in Zhang Chaoqiang's eyes, but they are rare and extraordinary isolation barriers.
Designed with the hardest and densest material in the world, every space is equivalent to a closed state.
And Zhang Chaoqiang also noticed something different. From the time they first entered this huge maze-like storage room, to now when they have a certain distance…
The places where the spirits of strange beasts were stored gradually changed from closed transparent windows for display to transparent but not closed, and some of them even had a circular brand.
"This is a switch, just like a vacuum cleaner. We have a device that can extract the spirit of the alien beast from the switch. We can extract the part of the spirit of the alien beast that is not completely sealed inside for experiments."
At the same time, as Zhang Chaoqiang observed more and more deeply, the spirit of the strange beast seemed to become clearer and more substantial. Bai Lu and Huang Feng also explained this phenomenon to him.
"Because the strange beast spirits we came into contact with at the beginning were nearly a thousand years ago. According to the files of our investigation bureau, they are basically the harvest and achievements of the first generation of investigators in our investigation bureau...
Therefore, basically, after we have studied, absorbed, and experimented on them, all of them have been completed. Therefore, the primary purpose now is not to explore them, so we have completely closed them off.
In addition, through previous experiments, they didn't have many spirits left, and they were afraid that the other party would be lost in time, so that the last trace of spirit would dissipate in the world...
Therefore, these devices that seal and place the spirits of alien beasts are actually very necessary!"
Afterwards, Huang Feng put a pair of headphones on Zhang Chaoqiang.
It looked like a headset, but it was actually a pair of glasses. The three-dimensional screen projected from the headset served as Zhang Chaoqiang's glasses, and then he saw the names of those strange beasts on the surface of those windows.
Taowu, Xiezhi, Xi, Chongming Bird, Bifang...
The names of these strange beasts can only be observed through the Investigation Bureau's identity authentication headphones... no, glasses.
Of course, the specific abilities of these exotic beasts are absolutely confidential in the Exotic Beast Investigation Bureau and naturally cannot be known.
It is also unknown whether it has been absorbed by humans and produced mechanical capabilities, or whether it has not been successfully absorbed.
Zhang Chaoqiang didn't ask any further questions about this.
This time I came here simply to learn. As for the spirits of those strange beasts, I don't need to think too much about them, because they have nothing to do with me at all.
Because according to Huang Feng and Bai Lu's understanding, he already possessed the [Diffusion] obtained from the hook.
The same person cannot successfully absorb two mechanical abilities. This is the answer reached by countless investigators from the Investigation Bureau.
Therefore, Zhang Chaoqiang has not had a suitable opportunity to tell the other party about the [theft] he obtained from stealing fat, so he has kept it secret for the time being.
Therefore, even though there are many spirits of strange beasts stored here, it is also believed that there are quite a few strange beasts that have not been successfully absorbed to produce mechanical abilities, but it is probably not Zhang Chaoqiang's turn to absorb them.
Once this idea came to mind, the first people to raise objections were not others but Bai Lu and Huang Feng, the two people who had brought him here to understand the process and the world.
Through the glasses, he could not only understand which strange beast was in front of him, but also know what it looked like when it was alive.
For example, the Chongming bird, as its name suggests, has two eyeballs in each eye, and looks like a rooster from the outside.
He saw a crane with only one leg, it was Bifang.
The Bifang bird is fiery red all over, with red feathers and a white beak.
The specific abilities of these two strange beasts were not very clear, so Zhang Chaoqiang set his sights on Taowu.
The appearance of this thing is very interesting...
I saw Taowu, with a body like a tiger, long and hard fur, a face like a human, legs like a tiger, a mouth with fangs like a wild boar, and a tail that was eight feet long...
There are also sharp, fang-like bone armor on both sides of the abdomen, which is very scary!
When he saw Taowu’s face, Zhang Chaoqiang suddenly felt the Happy Valley effect... no, the Uncanny Valley effect.
As one of the Four Evils, Taowu, Huang Feng and Bai Lu secretly told Zhang Chaoqiang a message, that is, as a beast, the Four Divine Beasts, the Four Evils are outstanding beasts among the beasts...
Not only does it have outstanding abilities itself, but even the mechanism abilities generated after being absorbed are extremely powerful and unique!
Zhang Chaoqiang clearly felt that Bai Lu and Huang Feng were suddenly so cautious, probably because the three of them had arrived at the area of strange beasts that were being studied and absorbed by many investigators.
Zhang Chaoqiang thought that Huang Feng and Bai Lu's voices became smaller because they were afraid that it would affect their absorption.
But actually, that is not the case. What they did not dare to say loudly just now, that there are also high and low levels among the strange beasts, was actually because of a colleague at the scene who was assisting other investigators in absorbing the spirits of the strange beasts.
This colleague is Li Yong, who is known as the tragic investigator, because he is the investigator who was absorbed from the alien beast and "walked" and was ridiculed for 25 years...
[Walking]: Speed increases by 100%, limited to walking only!
Walking twice as fast as normal...
Every time they think about it, the investigators can't stop laughing.
After the subsequent investigation, it was learned that the strange beast absorbed by Li Yong, the ancient ape-like beast that walked upright, was almost the most amazing one among all the strange beasts collected by the Investigation Bureau.
So, considering the colleague's face, he spoke in a low voice.
As for the current situation, Bai Lu and Huang Feng were explaining it to Zhang Chaoqiang, and Zhang Chaoqiang also noticed at the same time...
The current investigators are trying to absorb the spirits of the three strange beasts. Without exception, they all definitely do not have mechanical abilities.
Adhering to the highest priority, each investigator will take turns to try the spirit of the alien beast and try to generate mechanism abilities from it!
It's just a pity!
The three strange beasts in front of you:
Heavenly dog, fat thief, deer and lily.
Both of them are related to Zhang Chaoqiang.
The fat thief was captured by the Investigation Bureau with his help, and when Zhang Chaoqiang saw this name, he felt a little guilty...
After all, they already have the ability to steal fat in their bodies, so how can they possibly gain anything from it?
As for Lu Shu, his hair had caused a series of blunders around Zhang Chaoqiang...
It made Zhang Chaoqiang feel even more embarrassed...
If the investigators can successfully absorb the spirit of Lu Shu and activate the mechanism ability from it...
According to its previous ability to have many children and good fortune...
Could it be that the activated mechanism ability is also related to reproduction?
When he thought of it, Zhang Chaoqiang couldn't hold it anymore.
Huang Feng said: "These strange beasts have actually been tried by most investigators before.
These dozen investigators have just finished their mission and returned to the headquarters from other places. It's a good opportunity for them to try and see if they can gain abilities from the alien beasts."
"Over the years, there have been dozens of people who have been able to absorb the mechanical abilities of the spirit bodies of strange beasts, although not many. Their warrior levels vary...
Talents vary, not to mention gender. So far, we have not been able to find out what characteristics people who can successfully absorb the ability of the mechanism have...
How can we increase the chances of successful absorption…”
During their thinking, Zhang Chaoqiang also felt that the Investigation Bureau was indeed where he should go in the future...
You know, they will give priority to providing strange beasts to their own organizations. Only when the investigators become stronger can they better resist the strange beasts.
In the Investigation Bureau, Zhang Chaoqiang was able to maximize his ability to possess multiple exotic beast mechanisms, but due to his actual situation, he needed to find a suitable opportunity to inform the other party!
Soon, the three investigators who were testing the body closed their eyes with the help of the investigators beside them. At this time, Huang Feng and Bai Lu stopped talking and signaled Zhang Chaoqiang to observe carefully. (End of this chapter)
