Cicada ~ Cicada ~
The temperature at noon was very high. Even the cicadas hiding in the shade of the tree were chirping anxiously.
Zuo Yi leaned on the recliner in the yard, basking in the sun lazily.
To Zuo Yi, the unbearable scorching sun was no different from taking a warm bath. The energy carried by the scorching sun passed through his skin and was swallowed up by the fighting energy that was flowing within his blood, flesh, and bones.
This was one of his daily cultivation methods.
But the cicadas were really noisy.
Zuo Yi said, "Shut up."
As if the stop button had been pressed, the cicadas stopped chirping abruptly.
Now the outer area of Linjiang Town was basically occupied by the growing Baoshu Forest. The Bao 'er's natal tree was growing and showing more and more power.
The Baoshu could control all the creatures in the forest, including insects. So no mosquitoes, flies, fleas, or spiders could be seen in the old house. It was nothing to keep the noisy cicadas quiet.
Although the Baoshu belonged to the Bao 'er, like Teck, it also listened to or obeyed Zuo Yi's orders.
"Dad."
Just as Zuo Yi re-entered the state of cultivation, the Bao 'er ran to the yard with Teck.
"Ah."
Zuo Yi quickly sat up from the recliner. "The sun is very hot. Go back to the house."
He took the little girl back to the living room and asked, "Has Qiqi left?"
The Bao 'er was a little unhappy. "Yes."
It was late July. The Bao 'er and Xia Yunqi's summer vacation was almost halfway over.
Xia Yunqi was supposed to return to the capital after the summer vacation. But because she was learning runes from Zuo Yi, she stayed in Hangzhou for more than half a month.
Then, for some unknown reason, the Xia Family sent people over to urge him a few times.
Xia Yunqi left Hangzhou today and returned to the capital.
The Bao 'er had just sent away her best friend, so she was a little unhappy.
"It's okay."
Zuo Yi smiled and said, "We …"
Just as he was about to say that he would take the Bao'er out for a few days, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Zuo Yi had to answer the phone first.
"Chief Disciple Zuo!"
The person who called him was Lu Guang. The CTO of the Jiangnan Ultra Management Bureau sounded very excited. "The Thunderstone power core is complete!"
This news surprised Zuo Yi quite a bit.
He thought for a moment and said to the little girl, "Go upstairs with Atay to play. Daddy has something to do."
"Yes."
Bao'er nodded obediently.
Zuo Yi lovingly patted her head and added, "Daddy wants to take you out to play for a few days. Think about where we are going first, and then tell daddy, okay?"
The Bao'er's eyes lit up. "Great!"
Zuo Yi smiled and said, "Go ahead."
After the little girl ran upstairs with Teck, he said to Lu Guang, "I'll come over now."
Twenty minutes later, Zuo Yi appeared in the underground test field of the Ultra Management Bureau.
"Chief Zuo …"
Lu Guang, who was here, said to him excitedly, "We did it!"
More than half a month ago, Zuo Yi came here to test the Yazi Type I, which was still in development.
At that time, the Yazi Type I faced the problem of the power core not being practical, which caused the overall research and development to lag behind America and Iro. This made the higher-ups of Da Xia very worried.
Zuo Yi was not a technological superhuman, so he could not think of a good solution to this problem. However, he gave Lu Guang two Thunder Stones for the latter to research and test.
At that time, Zuo Yi did not expect that in just half a month, Lu Guang would really come up with the Thunder Stone power core and successfully put it into practical use!
He smiled and said, "Let me see your results."
Lu Guang chuckled and waved at the battle armor standing in the middle of the test field.
Compared to the last time Zuo Yi tested the Yazi Type I Battle Armor, there were not many changes. There were only a few adjustments to the details and some slight changes to the paint.
However, this was not the main point. As Lu Guang gave the signal, "its" eyes suddenly lit up, and two streams of blue flames shot out from its Achilles tendons.
With the help of the ion engine's powerful thrust, the Yazi Type I Battle Armor suddenly soared into the air and stopped near the dome in an instant. Then, it spread out its arms and adjusted its direction, starting its flight performance in the air.
It circled, dove, and nimbly bypassed the obstacle pillars. Although it was not fluent enough in some difficult movements, the Yazi Type I Battle Armor with six ion engines showed its excellent maneuverability.
Zuo Yi was curious. "Who's testing it?"
"It's Wang Xun …"
Lu Guang explained, "He provided a very good solution and helped us a lot."
Zuo Yi nodded.
Wang Xun was one of the main members of the Lukuang Team, a Grade C technological superhuman. He was in his thirties, had a taciturn personality, and had outstanding abilities.
Zuo Yi's Cherokee was modified by Lu Guang and Wang Xun together.
Under the gaze of Zuo Yi and Lu Guang, Wang Xun controlled the Yazi Type I Battle Armor to fly for more than ten minutes before landing on the ground.
He lifted his helmet and smiled shyly at Zuo Yi. "Chief Disciple Zuo."
Zuo Yi gave him a thumbs up and said to Lu Guang, "Awesome."
Zuo Yi was truly impressed by Lu Guang and Wang Xun. To be able to produce reliable results in such a short time, the two of them must have put in a lot of hard work and effort.
It was obvious from their appearances. Lu Guang had not shaved for a long time, and Wang Xun had dark circles under his eyes. He must have been working in the laboratory every day, forgetting to eat and sleep.
People like them were always worthy of respect. They were the backbone of Da Xia!
"Chief Disciple Zuo, it's all thanks to you this time."
Lu Guang said from the bottom of his heart, "Without your thunder stones, the new power core wouldn't have been able to break through so quickly!"
Zuo Yi shook his head. "I didn't expect it to be useful."
"Not only is it useful."
Lu Guang got excited. "It's simply too useful. Its energy is very stable, and its concentration is very high. Directing the output …"
He talked about the advantages of the thunder stones for a few minutes, and his words were mixed with a lot of data and terms.
Zuo Yi didn't really understand, but he felt that it was really awesome.
In the end, Lu Guang asked, "Chief Disciple Zuo, do you still have more of these thunder stones?"
"Yes."
Zuo Yi nodded. "How many do you need?"
Lu Guang's eyes lit up instantly. He blurted out, "The more the better. I want as many as you have!"
After saying that, he scratched his head in embarrassment. "Uh, this, let's talk about it later. Chief Wu just went to the laboratory in Shanghai. Our results still need to be further confirmed and verified."
Of the two thunder stones provided by Zuo Yi, the small one was used for various experiments, and the big one was cut into two to become the key part of the power core.
Of the two core parts, one was loaded in the Yazi Type I, and the other was taken to Shanghai by Wu Yongjian.
In the current situation, the value of the thunder stones that Zuo Yi obtained from Sassanth was already immeasurable!
