Chapter 9 is understandable.
I ate the meat heartily and felt very satisfied.
After Lin Sheng had eaten and drunk his fill,
He turned to look at the monster's core.
Lin Sheng held it in his hand and applied a little force.
The texture was found to be somewhat hard.
Lin Sheng touched his chin with his other hand, pondered for a moment, and prepared to exert more force.
The powerful force acted on the core, and tiny cracks immediately appeared on it.
Lin Sheng withdrew his strength and looked back at the core.
A powerful magical force flowed within the core.
Lin Sheng has now forgotten a lot of his magical knowledge.
I couldn't see through it in a short time, and drowsiness crept in.
"Hmm, I'll think about it tomorrow."
The next day, early in the morning.
The sky was just beginning to lighten.
Lin Sheng was still lazily sleeping in bed.
The area outside was already packed with people.
Not only were there the same people who came yesterday, but there was also an elderly man who looked kind and gentle.
Upon hearing the rhythmic snoring, the group did not choose to disturb the Holy Lord, but instead went to the main hall and sat down.
This was also the place where ancient dynasties held court.
The old man asked with a smile:
"I already had a general understanding of the deeds of the Divine Beast Saint Lord yesterday. Today, I'd like to ask everyone again: what do you think?"
Fang Chongshan spoke first: "Commander, based on our interactions with him yesterday, I don't think this Holy Lord is a true demon."
"As long as we treat them with sincerity, I believe we can definitely achieve a win-win cooperation!"
The old man nodded, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
At this moment, Zhang Taiming, the director of the Magic Research Institute, said, "But if the Holy Lord's actions are all an act, that's truly terrifying. We have no idea what he's plotting!"
The old man replied, "Then you should make good contact with the Holy Lord in the institute and see what the situation is."
"Yes, we still need to be careful. The demon identity given by the Blue Star Summoning System is genuine, and we also need to be wary of its 'Emperor' identity."
"He was very kind to everyone yesterday, even the service staff."
"My Dragon Kingdom no longer has an emperor, and we will never allow another one!"
Suddenly, the Vice Minister of Culture, who had a background in history, spoke up:
"Could it be that the Holy Ruler is the Jiajing Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?"
Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, he explained:
"The Jiajing Emperor's name was Zhu Houcong, which corresponds to the element of fire in the Five Elements theory."
"Secondly, it is rumored that the Jiajing Emperor attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven, transforming into a dragon."
"He was also the longest-reigning emperor in Ming Dynasty history. Perhaps he's become like this because he's used to being emperor?!"
"So, there's a reason why he's so good to China, right?"
Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.
"That's too far-fetched..."
"So... there's actually some truth to it?"
The old man was also taken aback by this statement for a few seconds, before making a definitive statement:
"No matter who the Holy Lord is, He always possesses formidable power and is also a divine beast summoned by our Dragon Kingdom."
"Please make sure you get along well with him!"
……
When Lin Sheng woke up, he was unaware that he had taken on the identity of a Taoist priest who was suspected to be from the Jiajing era.
Hot water and towels were provided inside the palace.
After washing up, Lin Sheng went outside.
I sensed a group of people in the palace ahead.
Look up at the sky again.
The sun was high in the sky, high in the sky.
How long has it been?
Lin Sheng felt a little embarrassed to have so many bigwigs from China waiting for him, so he hurried over.
Lin Shengyi noticed something amiss as soon as he entered the palace.
Compared to yesterday, there was an extra smiling elderly person in the crowd.
Although the old man had an ordinary appearance and dressed simply, Lin Sheng recognized him at a glance by his imposing presence.
This must be that person.
Lin Sheng stepped forward politely, extended his paw, and greeted, "Good morning, Chief!"
The old man chuckled, grasped a paw, and shook it. "Haha, good morning, Holy Lord."
"I wonder if you slept well last night? Feel free to make any requests; the Dragon Kingdom will do its utmost to fulfill the needs of a divine beast like you!"
Lin Sheng nodded. "You're too kind, sir."
"I slept very comfortably in this palace."
"What I urgently need to do now is to study things like monster cores and the power of faith."
"We hope the leader will give us the green light all the way."
The old man nodded upon hearing this, "Okay!"
"Today we'll head to the Blue Star Summoning System Research Institute and the Magic Research Institute first."
After saying this, the group walked out of the palace walls and came to another courtyard.
As we walked, the director of the research institute beside me gave an introduction.
"The Magic Research Institute was established in 2031 and currently has more than 500 researchers. Its core research topic is to study monster cores and decipher ancient texts."
"There have been many achievements so far."
"Please follow me, everyone."
The group entered the laboratory.
Zhang Taiming took out a small crystal.
"This is an E-class core, only the size of a fist."
Among them, we found...
The core is divided into two parts: magic and energy.
"The energy is very pure; it can be burned and absorbed."
"This E-class core alone contains the energy of more than one hundred tons of oil."
"Magic is relatively more complicated."
We experimented with numerous catalytic reactions and discovered that, under specific conditions, the magic within the core can be released.
"For example, this C-class monster, the Digging Rat core, can be made like this after some complex materials are added."
After saying that, Zhang Taiming threw it on the ground.
With a "bang".
The core exploded the instant it touched the ground.
It released a puff of grayish-green smoke.
The smoke touched the people and was directly inhaled into their bodies.
"Don't worry, this smoke is not dangerous."
"With just a thought, one can burrow into the earth."
Lin Sheng also absorbed the smoke.
They discovered that the smoke did indeed possess a trace of magical power.
Everyone tried it out by manipulating their thoughts.
It actually burrowed into the soil!
However, after a while, the smoke thinned and they came out.
Lin Sheng's eyes lit up when he saw this.
This is the magic we know and love!
"The energy and magic of an E-grade core are enough for more than ten people to master this ability, but the duration is very short!"
"Of course, there may be other issues such as conversion efficiency, and we have not been able to fully utilize the potential of this core."
"With magic involved, can the core be directly devoured?"
"Your Majesty, humans cannot directly devour them; they can only open the core to allow the energy to flow out."
As a divine beast, once you swallow it, the Blue Star Summoning System will automatically erase the magic.
Lin Sheng nodded.
The director continued his introduction,
"The second major discovery was deciphering the ancient texts."
"Please look, everyone."
After that, the researchers carried over bamboo slips, tortoise shells, and animal carvings covered with inscriptions.
"These are the things our researchers have painstakingly deciphered and discovered—something magical!"
"However, because these texts and images are very ancient, our deciphering progress is still very slow."
Lin Sheng suddenly became interested and picked up a bamboo scroll and opened it.
A shocking discovery—it can understand these words!
