Wan Gong's expression changed at Lu Yin's words. "Alliance Master, the Aurora Corporation has an unusual relationship with the Sirius Sect. I saw someone in the microarray department."
Lu Yin was curious.
Wan Gong solemnly replied, "Yuan Qiong."
Lu Yin's expression changed. "The Sirius Sect Master, Yuan Qiong?"
Wan Gong nodded. "I saw Yuan Qiong's image a few decades ago, and there's no mistaking it. He's definitely the Sirius Sect Master. He came in secret, and only a few people in the microarray department saw him. They were all core members of the department, and I was one of them. If not for the fact that I couldn't communicate with the outside world, I probably wouldn't have seen him."
Lu Yin subconsciously tapped the void and fell into deep thought. The Sirius Sect Master had actually secretly visited the Aurora Fort and appeared in the core microarray department. This was interesting.
"Is there anything else?" Lu Yin asked.
Wan Gong replied, "Nothing else. Mr. Zhi was very respectful towards Yuan Qiong."
Lu Yin nodded and told Wan Gong to go back and rest. He left the microarray department under the Second Nightking's lead and returned to his residence.
Not long after Lu Yin left, Mr. Zhi arrived at the microarray department.
Wan Gong had been testing microarrays, so how could he hide them from Mr. Zhi? However, Mr. Zhi only knew that the experiment was a success because there were traces and a finished product. He didn't know how it had been successful or what battle technique had been used.
Mr. Zhi looked at the traces and was even more excited than Wan Gong. "What material was that?"
Wan Gong replied, "I don't know either. I wanted to rest, but I couldn't sleep, so I came here to test it. I took out some random materials and didn't expect it to succeed."
Mr. Zhi ordered an inventory of all the materials in the microarray department. They had to find the materials needed to succeed.
At that moment, a middle-aged man with a gloomy expression walked out of the void.
Mr. Zhi and the rest bowed when they saw him. "Master Xuan."
This was the powerhouse with a power level of over a million that the Aurora Corporation worshipped. He was also a formation master in Jiayuan.
In the entire Aurora Fort, even Mr. Zhi was extremely respectful to this Master Xuan and didn't dare to slight him.
Master Xuan's domain swept past the microarray department, and his gaze changed. "Sword techniques."
Mr. Zhi looked at Wan Gong.
Wan Gong's heart sank.
At the same time, Master Xuan looked at Wan Gong. "The battle technique used to test micro arrays is a sword technique. Have you ever learned a sword technique?"
Wan Gong respectfully replied, "Yes, I have."
"Is that so? Let me see." Master Xuan stared at Wan Gong. His gaze was imposing even though he wasn't angry. As an expert with a battle power of a million, his prestige wasn't something that an ordinary person could resist.
Wan Gong gulped as he used his star energy to form a sword and slashed out.
Grandmaster Xuan's eyes turned cold. "How dare you lie to me!"
Wan Gong jumped in fright and his legs went soft. Facing the might of an elite with a combat power of a million, he couldn't even stand steadily.
Chairman Zhi stared at Wan Gong, his eyes flashing coldly, "Wan Gong, our Aurora Cosmos Ship Company has treated you well, what have you done?
Who was here earlier? "
At this point, Chairman Zhi frowned and couldn't help but look at Master Xuan.
Everyone knew the importance of the micro-array department, so Master Xuan wasn't far from here. How could anyone enter without Master Xuan knowing?
Suddenly, Chairman Zhi thought of Lu Yin and the second Leaf King.
Master Xuan thought of this at the same time. He looked at Zhi Dong with an ugly expression.
In the entire Aurora Stronghold, only Lu Yin and the Second Nightking could enter the micro-array department without Master Xuan knowing.
At that moment, the void in front of them distorted as Lu Yin walked out with the Second Nightking. He faced Chairman Zhi. "Don't blame him. I told him not to speak."
Lu Yin knew that he couldn't hide his microarray research from Chairman Zhi, but he hadn't expected that Realyuan's formation master to appear and sense the residual attack in the air.
Chairman Zhi clenched his fists and suppressed his anger. "Alliance Master Lu, I treated you as a guest, but you schemed against us?"
Master Xuan's eyes narrowed as he looked at the Second Nightking. This person gave him a lot of pressure, but he was a formation master from Realyuan and this was the Aurora Stronghold. If they really fought, he might be able to put up a fight.
The Second Nightking looked at Grandmaster Xuan with a cold glint in his eyes.
Lu Yin laughed. "Without me, your so-called microarray research is just a joke. Wan Gong, tell your boss where your microarray research came from, and where did you help him break through his bottleneck?"
Chairman Zhi looked at Wan Gong.
Wan Gong was apprehensive, and his voice trembled as he said, "I originally had no clue about microarray research, but Alliance Master Lu showed me the finished product. That was how I found a way to break through my bottleneck and successfully created the finished product. Right, the materials were also provided by Alliance Master Lu."
Chairman Zhi was shocked. "The materials and technology came from Alliance Master Lu?"
Wan Gong looked at Lu Yin and then nodded at Chairman Zhi. "Yes."
Chairman Zhi frowned and looked at Lu Yin with a complicated expression.
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "Chairman Zhi, I told you before that you should be thanking me. Otherwise, it would be meaningless for you to throw so much money into this mess every year. Even if you have a breakthrough, it would be useless without the materials. I can guarantee that you won't be able to find any suitable materials in the entire Fifth Mainland. Only I have them."
Chairman Zhi sighed. "Alliance Master Lu, we should talk."
The Aurora Stronghold was more of a city than a stronghold. It was a civilization, and to the commoners who lived here, it was their own world.
Chairman Zhi brought Lu Yin to the largest waterfall north of the Aurora Stronghold.
There was a pavilion beneath the waterfall, with a stone table and a pot of wine and side dishes. Only Chairman Zhi and Lu Yin were there; neither Master Xuan nor the Second Nightking had approached.
Chairman Zhi poured Lu Yin a cup of wine. "I don't like to drink, but I heard that Alliance Master Lu likes it, so I specially prepared some for you. Have a taste, this wine is produced by the Aurora Stronghold."
Lu Yin raised a hand to stop Chairman Zhi from pouring more wine for him. "Actually, I don't like to drink either. I prefer tea to wine."
Chairman Zhi put down his cup and retrieved a teapot from his cosmic ring. "Those who drink are emotional, while those who drink are rational. Alliance Master Lu, this isn't the first day we've met, but this is the first time we've truly met."
Lu Yin looked at the waterfall to the side. "Yes, this is the first time we've truly met. The Aurora Corporation sends a tenth of their annual profits to the microarray department without exception. If this massive amount of resources were used in the Innerverse, it would be enough to create a powerful organization that could rival the Blaze Realm or the Ross Empire."
Chairman Zhi looked at Lu Yin. "If I'm not wrong, Wan Gong already joined Alliance Master Lu the last time you were here."
Lu Yin nodded and didn't hide anything. "That's right."
Chairman Zhi laughed. "It's been almost five years, and we didn't even notice. It's no wonder that Wan Gong made a breakthrough in microarray technology not long after Alliance Master Lu left."
"I'm very curious. I understand Wan Gong's character, so how did Alliance Master Lu convince him to join us in such a short time?
He didn't hesitate to betray the Aurora Corporation.
You should know that at that time, Alliance Master Lu might not have been as powerful as the Aurora Corporation. "
Lu Yin reached out to take the teacup and swirled it around. "No comment."
Chairman Zhi downed the tea in one gulp. "Microarray technology is the Aurora Corporation's core secret. It can be said that the Aurora Corporation was founded because of microarray technology, and it was to research it that the Aurora Corporation was founded. Alliance Master Lu, you should understand its importance."
Lu Yin didn't say anything and just listened quietly.
"Over the years, the Aurora Corporation's ancestors have invested an astronomical amount into microarray technology, and it wasn't until my generation that we succeeded. Alliance Master Lu, do you understand how I feel?
My father's generation, my ancestors, and countless resources have been invested, and now we're only one step away from success. Alliance Master Lu, what do you think I should do? "
Chairman Zhi grew more and more agitated as he spoke. He stared at Lu Yin, "If it were you, would you share this success with others?"
Lu Yin slammed his wine glass onto the stone table, "Chairman Zhi, if it weren't for me, even your grandchildren wouldn't have succeeded in their research."
"Then we'll wait!" Chairman Zhi shouted, the veins on his forehead bulging as he gritted his teeth. "This is the fate of the Aurora Corporation. No matter how long it takes, no matter what price we have to pay, we must succeed."
"This success shouldn't be shared with outsiders, and it can't be shared with outsiders. Alliance Master Lu, you've gone too far."
Lu Yin sighed and looked at Chairman Zhi. "I thought you were a rational person."
Chairman Zhi's eyes narrowed, and his eyelids trembled. "I am, which is why I've been discussing this with Alliance Master Lu. That's why I brought Alliance Master Lu here. No one else has ever come here, not even my son. Alliance Master Lu is the first."
"How are you going to do this?" Lu Yin asked slowly.
He didn't want to easily control the Aurora Corporation, as microarray technology was their life.
Lu Yin was already used to controlling other people's weaknesses, such as the Thirteen Swords, the Ku family's' when things reach an extreme, things move in the opposite direction ', and the Wen family's' when things reach an extreme, things move in the opposite direction '.
However, compared to the Ku family and the Wen family, the Aurora Corporation was different. They had never given up on microarray technology, and the Ku family had always thought that things could move in the opposite direction, but they had never been able to find any clues. Before Lu Yin had returned to this region of space, the Wen family hadn't even known that there were multiple Literary Prisons.
The Thirteen Swords were extremely important to the Sword Sect, but the Sword Sect had its own secrets as well.
The only thing that was similar to the Aurora Corporation was the Tactician family, but the Tactician Secret Character was something that had been obtained through cultivation. The Tactician family didn't spend much time and resources to research it, and they didn't even know where to start.
However, the Aurora Corporation was different. They had researched microarray technology for too many years, and their obsession was too deep. This obsession could easily drive them crazy.
Chairman Zhi panted heavily. "I forgot about microarray technology. I'm willing to compensate Alliance Master Lu with eighty billion star essence."
Lu Yin's eyelids twitched, and his eyes were filled with shock. Eighty billion?
Just how rich was the Aurora Corporation?
They were offering eighty billion as soon as they opened their mouths.
It had to be said that Lu Yin was moved by this amount. Who wouldn't be?
Eighty billion was enough to crush the Sword Sect's mountain.
However, this amount of money was insignificant when compared to microarray technology. This was an epoch-making technology, and Lu Yin couldn't even imagine how far it could be developed in the future.
