Chapter 48 The experiment begins

Dajing City,
Ping An Building,

Wu Yue has found a suitable beauty and is ready to introduce her to Wang Xiaoming.

He took out his cell phone, found Wang Xiaoming's number and dialed it.

beep...beep...beep...

There was a busy tone in the receiver and the call could not be connected.

Maybe he's busy! Call back later.

beep...beep...beep...

Wu Yue called several more times, but still couldn't get through.
Could it be that he has been blocked?
After changing the phone number, Wu Yue called again using the office phone, but to his disappointment, he still couldn't get through to Wang Xiaoming.

Listening to the beeping sound coming from the phone, Wu Yue slammed the table angrily. He couldn't contact Wang Xiaoming, so all his previous preparations were in vain, let alone being sent abroad to become the general manager.

"Do we have to go to the experimental base? But I'm not from the experimental base, so I can't get in!"

Wu Yue walked around the office, thinking about how to contact Wang Xiaoming.

I am not from the experimental base... I am not from the experimental base...

"Oh, right," Wu Yue suddenly thought of someone, "Cui Chongshi, isn't he a staff member of Wang Xiaoming's laboratory? It would be easy to contact Wang Xiaoming through him."

Wu Yue quickly opened his cell phone's address book and started searching. Fortunately, he had Cui Chongshi's phone number, so he found it quickly. He called and the call was connected quickly.

After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Wu Yue expressed his desire to meet Wang Xiaoming, hoping that Cui Chongshi could act as a go-between.

"I can't help you with this right now. The professor is not at the base recently."

"What?" Wu Yue was surprised: "Where is Professor Wang?"

"This is not a secret. The professor just went to the headquarters today. I heard that he was participating in a secret project. I'm afraid he won't be back for a while." Cui Chongshi continued: "Why do you want to see the professor? If it's not important, just wait for the professor to come back."

"It's okay. I got it."

Wu Yue hung up the phone in a daze, not knowing what to do next. He had already made a big promise in front of Mr. Fei, but now he couldn't even meet Wang Xiaoming, let alone introduce his wife to him.

It's like dying before achieving success...

Ah cut!

Wang Xiaoming felt his nose itchy and couldn't help sneezing.

Under Li Jun's concerned gaze, Wang Xiaoming waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

At this time, they were in a two-story detached building, which was the residence arranged for them by the headquarters. It was fully furnished and they could move in with just their luggage.

They had just gotten familiar with their accommodation and work areas, and had recently separated from the logistics manager Cheng Yongqian. As for other minor matters such as entering information, they did not need to do it in person, as someone would help them.

"Come on, let's go to the laboratory."

Wang Xiaoming waved for a mobility scooter, and got in with Li Jun. After telling the destination, he didn't have to worry about anything else, as the staff would drive the scooter to take them there.

Compared with the experimental base, the headquarters is at least ten times larger. It would take a lot of time to walk to many places, so the headquarters has purchased a number of mobility scooters to save time on the road.

After arriving at the underground base, Wang Xiaoming began to set up a spiritual transformation formation in his own private laboratory. During this time, the twenty liters of human blood he requested were also delivered by the staff.

Since he had agreed to prepare a batch of spiritual gunpowder in advance, Wang Xiaoming did not think of delaying. He quickly entered the working state and quickly set up the spiritual formation. Then he put the blood into the bronze tripod at the center of the formation, and then started the spiritual transformation with Li Jun.

Because twenty liters of blood were converted at one time, the conversion lasted more than eight minutes before all the ordinary blood was converted into blood with ghost fire. During this period, Wang Xiaoming's spiritual power was also consumed a lot.

After the transformation was completed, Wang Xiaoming directed Li Jun to pour all the supernatural blood into a golden container and seal it tightly. Because of the gold barrier, the supernatural power in the blood would not dissipate and could be preserved for a long time.

"How do you feel about this supernatural transformation?" After finishing their work, the two sat together and chatted, and Wang Xiaoming asked.

Li Jun closed his eyes and felt it carefully before saying, "I feel very relaxed. The resurrection of the evil spirits of the will-o'-the-wisp has been suppressed a little, probably... probably suppressed by one tenth."

Li Jun hesitated, as if he was not sure about the number. "How much do you weigh now?" Wang Xiaoming continued to ask.

"One hundred and fifty-four kilograms." Li Jun replied.

One hundred and fifty-four pounds, twenty liters of blood, one tenth...

These numbers flashed through Wang Xiaoming's mind, and he began to calculate whether supernatural powers were related to mass. Soon, Wang Xiaoming discovered that there seemed to be no relationship between the two, but now there was too little data to rule out this possibility.

It was soon noon.

After lunch, when Wang Xiaoming returned to the underground laboratory, he met Pang Dong and other experimenters.

Pang Dong and others also knew the reason why they were transferred to the headquarters and understood their mission. Naturally, they did not dare to neglect it, so they agreed to rush to the underground laboratory after lunch.

Wang Xiaoming didn't waste any time and directed them to take out the spiritual blood that had just been produced and mix it with the Zhurong stone stored in the underground laboratory to make spiritual gunpowder.

There is strength in numbers. It didn't take long before all the supernatural blood was used up and turned into supernatural gunpowder.

Seeing that Pang Dong and his team had already started packaging the magical gunpowder, Wang Xiaoming called the deputy minister.

"Minister Xie, please send someone to the laboratory. A batch of spiritual gunpowder has been produced."

"Ah?! So fast... Wait a minute... I'll send someone to get it right away," Xie Zhongquan's voice was full of surprise and disbelief. It was obvious that Wang Xiaoming's efficiency frightened him. "Professor, thank you so much for troubling you."

"Okay, hurry up. The newly made supernatural gunpowder needs to be made into golden bullets as soon as possible, otherwise it will not be able to explode when the supernatural power dissipates."

"Okay, okay."

After hanging up the phone, Pang Dong and his team packed all the supernatural gunpowder, turned on the exhaust fan to ventilate the laboratory, and dissipated the strong smell of blood.

After a while, there was a noise outside the door, and Xie Zhongquan trotted in, leading several elites in black combat uniforms. These people were fully armed and carried lethal weapons, looking cool and handsome.

"Sorry, I'm late," Xie Zhongquan looked around, "Professor, where is the supernatural gunpowder?"

"These are all. Take them away and make bullets as soon as possible." Wang Xiaoming pointed at the packaged supernatural gunpowder and reminded again.

"Thank you, professor. I understand," Xie Zhongquan nodded repeatedly to indicate that he remembered it, and then directed the armed men behind him to load the supernatural gunpowder into the golden safe.

"Professor, I won't bother you anymore." Seeing that the supernatural gunpowder had been loaded, Xie Zhongquan prepared to leave.

"Okay, I won't send it to you."

“No need to send me… No need to send me.”

Xie Zhongquan left with the magical gunpowder.

Wang Xiaoming turned to look at his experimenters and said, "The spiritual gunpowder just now was just a warm-up for you. The next step is the hard battle."

"We need to extract supernatural materials from evil spirits that can be produced continuously. This is related to whether supernatural gunpowder can be truly popularized and to the changes in the domestic supernatural world."

"I will not say anything encouraging, nor do I want to, because I believe you already know the importance of this experiment."

"So let's not waste time and get straight to the point - how to extract ghost fire supernatural materials?"

"Which direction should our experiment go next?"

　I saw some book friends wondering why ghost candles are not made. The main reason is that the evil ghosts that can produce the materials for ghost candles have not appeared yet.

　　In the original novel, the ghost candle was made when Yang Jian became a ghost rider, and the current timeline is about a year ago.

　　If this special evil ghost is in the hands of the headquarters now, Wang Xiaoming will probably be able to make the ghost candle in three months.

　　So I just assumed that this particular evil spirit hadn't appeared yet.

　　The above is just my personal opinion.
