Chapter 369: Chapter 307: Bold Plan: The Little Goblin Strikes

How many Tier Sevens does the Alliance have right now?

Only a few hundred.

If you could create a Tier Seven Genetic Weapon for just one or two hundred million, it would absolutely be a groundbreaking feat that could shatter the balance of power.

Besides, Tier Eight was pretty cheap too.

Two billion!

Gao Neng had that kind of money right now.

’If I could create a Tier Eight "Personal Bodyguard," model it to look like Shen Ning’Er, and have it kneel when I say kneel and lick when I say lick... Just thinking about it is a little exciting.’

"By the way, Dr. Wu, what’s the highest tier a genetic weapon can reach?" Gao Neng immediately asked again.

"The highest? Theoretically, they can reach Tier Nine, but none have been successfully created yet. After all, the higher the tier, the higher the cost!" Wu Qingjing was a little surprised by Gao Neng’s behavior, but he answered anyway.

"Only Tier Nine? You can’t create one of the Strongest?" Gao Neng was slightly disappointed. He had a 100% success rate in weapon manufacturing, after all.

’A genetic weapon...’

’...should count as a weapon, right?’

’If I could create one of the Strongest and have a few of them trailing behind me, I could do whatever I want in the entire Alliance.’

"The Strongest? Heh, that’s impossible. The body structure of the Strongest is different from that of a normal human. You’ve probably heard, right? The Strongest all possess at least one 100% talent. The reason is that they undergo an ’evolution’ when they break through to become one of the Strongest," Wu Qingjing explained.

"I see. So, what were those special reasons you mentioned earlier, Dr. Wu? Can you tell me about them? Also, since you’re the founder of genetic weapons, you must have the manufacturing blueprints, right? Do you have the blueprints for Tier Nine? If not, Tier Eight is fine too!" Gao Neng asked again.

"The special reasons are rather complicated to explain. As for the blueprints... wait a minute, Gao Neng. You’re not thinking of learning how to manufacture genetic weapons, are you?" Wu Qingjing was about to answer when he suddenly realized something.

"Yeah, I want to learn. Are you willing to teach me?" Gao Neng nodded immediately.

"I want to learn too! I want to learn with Gao Neng!" Fang Tangtang shouted from the side as soon as she heard him.

"..." Wu Qingjing was stunned.

He could truly see a fanatical gleam in Gao Neng’s and Fang Tangtang’s eyes. It was the look of someone who had just stumbled upon a priceless treasure.

’But the problem is, this doesn’t seem to align with my original purpose for coming here, does it?’

"If you don’t want to teach me, you can just show me the manufacturing blueprints. I can teach myself!" Gao Neng added when Wu Qingjing remained silent.

"Teach yourself?!" Wu Qingjing was aghast. He had researched genetic weapons for decades and had never heard of anyone claiming they could learn to manufacture them on their own.

"I can teach myself too! And I can learn along with Gao Neng!" Fang Tangtang declared, not to be outdone.

"..."

Silence fell over the room.

After an unknown amount of time, Wu Qingjing finally collected himself. He looked at Gao Neng and Fang Tangtang. "You two really want to learn... how to manufacture genetic weapons?"

"We do!"

Gao Neng and Fang Tangtang nodded in unison.

"Alright. If you really want to learn, I can let you look at some of my teaching notes first. If you read them and still think..."

"Can’t you just give us the manufacturing blueprints?" Gao Neng looked disappointed.

"The manufacturing blueprints... they’re too complex. Without a proper foundation, they’re very difficult to understand..."

"It’s fine, it’s fine! I can understand them!"

"..." Wu Qingjing was speechless.

’Are you two messing with me?’

’All you talk about is wanting the blueprints. Do you really think manufacturing genetic weapons is that simple? These are massive projects that can easily cost tens of billions!’

"Forget it, forget it. This mean old man clearly doesn’t have any real power. Gao Neng, let’s just go find Sister Xiaobing!" Fang Tangtang said, ready to change tactics when Wu Qingjing went silent again.

"I don’t have real power?" Wu Qingjing felt this was the greatest insult he had ever received. He was the esteemed Speaker of the Federation Supreme Council, and she said he had no real power?

"If you had real power, would you dare to give us the manufacturing blueprints?" Fang Tangtang retorted.

"Hahaha... You two little rascals think you can goad me? Fine! I’ll give you the manufacturing blueprints. However, I can’t give you the ones for Tier Eight and Tier Nine just yet. As for Tier Seven... alright, I’ll give you the Tier Seven blueprints!" Wu Qingjing didn’t know what had come over him to actually agree to Fang Tangtang and Gao Neng’s request.

The manufacturing blueprints for a Tier Seven Genetic Weapon were considered top secret within the Alliance Research Center. Only he could make such a promise.

"Only Tier Seven? How stingy!" Fang Tangtang grumbled, dissatisfied.

But Gao Neng knew better.

If he had asked Lan Ruosi, he probably wouldn’t have even gotten the Tier Seven blueprints. Only a man like Wu Qingjing, the Speaker, would offer them up right after meeting him.

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker!" Gao Neng immediately expressed his gratitude.

"Hm? You know my identity?" Wu Qingjing’s expression stiffened slightly. His eyes gradually narrowed, and he looked at Gao Neng with a complicated gaze.

"It wasn’t hard to guess. When you first appeared, Ning’Er gave me a hint. Adding that to Sister Xiaobing’s reaction, I figured you were a member of the Federation Supreme Council!"

"Very observant. However, I could have just been a council member."

"If you were just a council member, you wouldn’t have the authority to give us the manufacturing blueprints for a Tier Seven Genetic Weapon on your own. You would have had to request permission from the Speaker!" Gao Neng explained.

"Hahaha... Interesting!" Wu Qingjing’s eyes flew open, and he immediately broke into a laugh.

"Mr. Speaker, you specifically arranged for us to meet in the genetic weapon laboratory and then told us about the history of genetic weapons... It’s because someone wants my and Tangtang’s genes, isn’t it?" A smile played on Gao Neng’s lips.
