Chapter 143 The ones who should be worried are those old men.
“There are many, and quite a few people have already tried them.” Liu Ren nodded in response to Ma Ming’s question, “but the results are not good. I have also tried them, and found that none of those methods are as good as the ‘Observation of Myself’ method.”
"Why? Are the two very different?"
"Not big."
"?"
"It's just that the 'Observation of Myself Method' has been modified and perfected by me; other methods don't have that feature," Liu Ren explained. "My modified 'Observation of Myself Method' incorporates the strengths of various schools and is already considered 'complete.' Therefore, if you want to improve your spiritual power, there's no need to look for other methods; practicing this one is enough."
"..."
That's terrifying!
Although Ma Ming didn't say it aloud, it was evident in his expression.
He had heard of Liu Ren's deeds, but after experiencing them firsthand, Ma Ming felt...
Those legends are still a bit too conservative!
Even the top meditation masters probably couldn't perfect a meditation method.
After inquiring about the meditation method, Liu Ren told Ma Ming about another matter: "When I was on a mission before, I captured a special monster."
"A peculiar mystery?"
"Yes. It can conceal all the strange phenomena on its body and disguise itself as a normal person."
"There's such a strange thing?"
“I’ve already had it imprisoned. Now that you’re here, you can try any experiments you want on that thing. I’ll assign you a special assistant to help you with your experiments.”
"Really? That's great! I wonder where the assistant is and when we can start?" Ma Ming's face showed excitement.
He's been at the research institute for so long, but he hasn't officially started his research yet.
Even with a salary that has increased several times over, I still don't feel at ease.
And now, finally I can have some work to do!
"Come with me."
Liu Ren led Ma Ming all the way to the special prison at the Zero Association headquarters.
Currently, there is only one detainee here.
All the guards were infiltrators, and Su Fan was among those on duty.
He happened to be on guard duty today.
"team leader--"
Upon seeing Liu Ren approach, Su Fan immediately greeted him.
"Yes, this is Ma Ming, the main person in charge of the research institute." Liu Ren raised his hand to introduce them. "This is Su Fan, he used to be a member of my team, he's very reliable. I'll have him assist you in your research on that monster."
"Yes!" Ma Ming quickly went over and shook hands with Su Fan.
Liu Ren turned to Su Fan and said, "I need to move that monster inside to a different location, and then I'll throw it into the research institute. Your subsequent task is to protect Ma Ming's safety and assist him in completing the research on the monster."
"Yes." Su Fan had no objection.
Even if it were there, it wouldn't be of any use.
After all, his direct superior is Liu Ren.
After exchanging greetings, Liu Ren walked into the prison, whose walls were all painted white.
Shu Yan sat on the metal bed board, looking dazed.
She didn't react at all when Liu Ren walked in.
"Has she always been like this?" Liu Ren turned and asked.
“Yes,” Su Fan said, “There have been virtually no attempts to break out; it’s very stable.”
"Maybe his brain is broken," Liu Ren guessed casually. "After all, low-level monsters don't have very sharp brains."
"Is this information also derived from 'Eternal Night'?" Ma Ming asked.
"Yes. Over there, low-level monsters usually have no intelligence, while those at the Shadow level have a little intelligence, but not as much as humans. Only when their strength reaches the Spirit Wraith level do they become as intelligent as humans."
"I see. This monster is quite dangerous." Ma Ming carefully sized up Shu Yan.
From the outside, he did not see any non-human parts.
Just as Liu Ren said.
This thing looks no different from an ordinary person.
Liu Ren reached out and grabbed Shu Yan's wrist, pulling her up.
"What are you going to do?" Shu Yan looked up and finally reacted.
"I'll take you away from here."
"Can we leave now?"
"Ah."
Too lazy to say much, Liu Ren dragged Shu Yan out of the prison.
There is a similar place in the research institute near the Zero Association headquarters.
It can be used specifically to imprison ghosts that have physical forms.
The original purpose of establishing this research institute was to study strange objects.
Therefore, all the related supporting facilities are complete.
Of course, the building renovation also cost a lot of money.
But Liu Ren felt that the money was well spent!
Someone has to take his place to uncover the secrets that the strange creature might possess and to figure out more of its characteristics.
If not, Liu Ren would fall into a kind of "spacetime paradox".
He wasn't keen on gambling on this kind of thing, wondering if he could "change the future."
"I'll leave the rest to you."
After re-detaining Shu Yan, Liu Ren said to Ma Ming.
"Hmm, leave it to me, Mr. Liu! But... what kind of research do you need me to conduct?" Ma Ming asked. "And, do you have anything like the Red Thread?"
"No."
"Oh, I see. Then I can relax a little bit..." Ma Ming stroked his chin, already having envisioned several experiments he wanted to try in his mind.
Seeing this, Liu Ren took the opportunity to clarify his side's principles: "As long as it's an experiment on the monsters, you don't need to have any reservations. We don't conduct human experiments here. Monsters have no human rights, so you can do whatever you want with them."
“Yes…” Ma Ming nodded in agreement, then added, “However, when it comes to human trials, some foreign countries don’t seem to have any concerns about this. Although it’s not good to say this, if we do nothing, it might slow down our research progress.”
"So what if it's slow? At least you still have time. As for things back home... that's not my concern. The royal family and the cabinet ministers have to worry about that."
Although there has been no news from above so far.
But Liu Ren dared to guarantee that human trials over there had definitely already begun long ago.
These strange creatures are too aggressive and can easily threaten certain wealthy and powerful figures who lack real strength.
Even for self-preservation, they would try their best to create more obedient infiltrators to protect their safety.
Instead of living in constant fear.
The shareholders of Zero Association basically have similar intentions—
Once Zero Collaboration has grown up, using it to protect itself becomes an easy thing.
That's why they're pouring money into it so relentlessly.
But it's not entirely because Liu Ren was there.
Although they all seem to be his fans...
But there probably wasn't much affection involved.
While interests are one thing, no one would actually throw all their real money into something just for a fleeting, intangible feeling.
People like that can't become big bosses.
