Chapter 232 Try It for Free

Lu Changsheng didn't have the ability to read minds, so naturally he couldn't hear Xia Lin's inner drama.

He took the tea cup from Lin Yuan, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently.

What a great tea.

"Boss Lu, there are no outsiders here, and no one will come near the office. If you have anything, you can just say it."

Lin Yuan's opening remarks were simple.

But when it reached Lu Changsheng's ears, it caused a slight misunderstanding.

Is Charlene really your illegitimate daughter?

Is this a hint to me?

Lu Changsheng resisted the urge to glance at his desk, cleared his throat, and said, "Actually, I came to you today for only one purpose."

"I want to know if there are any records about the first generation chief within the Demon Slaying Department. Any record will do."

"Or did he leave something behind?"

Lin Yuan was silent for a few seconds.

He really didn't expect that the purpose of Lu Changsheng's visit would be this.

However, he quickly retracted his thoughts and said, "All records related to the first-generation chief have been artificially deleted."

"Our records of the first generation are also very limited. If we talk about the things he left behind, the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Division has always retained the office of the first generation chief."

"I wonder if there's anything you want there."

"Deleted?" Lu Changsheng asked with some confusion, "Who is so bold? Dare to delete the information related to the first generation?"

"And in addition to those within the Demon Slayer Division, people who lived in the same era will definitely record the information of the first generation in their own way. Have all those been deleted?"

Lin Yuan refilled the cup of tea for Lu Changsheng and said, "Our Demon Slaying Department has also launched a detailed investigation into this matter."

"But no matter how we trace it back, we can't find more details. We can't even confirm whether the first generation is dead."

"But there is one thing that is basically recognized internally by us."

"The person who deleted those messages is most likely the first generation himself."

Lu Changsheng was startled.

That makes sense.

With Zhou Yi's power at the time, if it weren't for him, who would have been able to completely erase the information about the chief of the first-generation Demon Slayer Division from the long river of history?

But why did he do this?

With Zhou Yi's character, he is not the kind of person who does good things without leaving his name behind.

How can he be so low-key...

What is the reason?

"Boss Lu, why are you suddenly so interested in the first generation chief?" Lin Yuan took a sip from the tea cup and asked with interest.

Lu Changsheng slowly recovered his thoughts and sorted out his memory a little.

He briefly explained everything he saw in the [Ancient Continent] to Lin Yuan.

Of course, everything related to the time traveler is hidden.

This was Lu Changsheng's plan from the beginning.

If he wants to unlock the secrets about Zhou Yi, he will have to deal with Lin Yuan, the current chief.

Instead of trying to come up with excuses every time, it's better to tell the truth.

"[Ancient Continent]... [This World]... [God-Creation Ceremony]..." Lin Yuan muttered some new terms he had just heard, his mind was running rapidly, and his expression became a little solemn.

For some reason, Lu Changsheng always felt that he felt a little more relaxed now that there was one more person to worry about.

Sure enough, the best way to get rid of your baggage is to find someone to carry it with you.

"Boss Lu, is the suit of armor brought back by Class 197 a product from two hundred years ago?" Xia Lin didn't know when she had touched Lu Changsheng's side.

She was a little submissive at first, but after hearing the technology-related topics, she finally couldn't help but interject.

"I can't determine the specific time, but it is at least an old object from more than a hundred years ago."

"Dog...well...according to my apprentice, a first-level awakened person wearing that suit of armor can increase his combat power to close to that of a fifth-level walker, if such equipment can be popularized."

"It should be a huge improvement to the human race's combat power, right?"

Lu Changsheng followed Xia Lin's topic and said.

"The Bureau of Creation is currently still collecting data on that set of armor. After all, there is only one set. If we conduct too aggressive testing, we are afraid of damage."

When talking about her professional field, Charlene suddenly became more confident and her eyes no longer dodge. She was unwilling to give up the opportunity to perform in front of her idol, and the conversation started immediately.

"But according to the feedback we collected, it did not achieve the increase effect shown in the intelligence."

"That suit of armor seems to have a design similar to a safety lock. Only a specific owner can wear it before it can fully function."

"When others put it on, it's just a suit of armor with decent defense at best."

"That helmet is more interesting."

"The craftsmanship in that helmet is very strange and has nothing to do with any of the directions we have studied."

"It seems to be able to achieve a certain degree of synchronization with the colorful saber-toothed tiger, that is..."

Xia Lin's next words were filled with a lot of professional terms, which made Lu Changsheng confused.

After finishing the third pot of tea, Lin Yuan finally couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Director Xia, thank you for the technical work."

"I think Boss Lu is now more interested in the office left by the first generation chief."

"We will discuss this topic again after the Bureau of Creation has the latest progress."

Lu Changsheng looked at Lin Yuan with some emotion.

His mind was completely empty, and he felt like he was back in math class in high school.

He understood every word of what Xia Lin said, but when they were put together, he just couldn't understand it.

If Lin Yuan hadn't interrupted the spell, Xia Lin would probably have continued to talk for half a day.

"Don't mind, my Director Xia, once he talks about professional topics, he tends to talk a lot." Lin Yuan took Lu Changsheng to the special elevator in the center of the headquarters.

This is a special elevator for the former chiefs of the Demon Slayer Division, which can go directly to the top floor of the Demon Slayer Division.

It's really strange to do scientific research.

Lu Changsheng complained in his heart, but didn't delve too much into it.

Ding——

The elevator door slowly opened.

The space on the top floor is open and bright, and natural light shines through the specially made transparent dome on the top, which is particularly comfortable when intertwined with the soft lights in the room.

An ordinary office, located in the center of the top floor.

The door of the office is made of an unknown dark wood, with a smooth surface like a mirror, carved with fine patterns, and a faint flow of energy between the lines.

Is that on the door...

A formation?

Lu Changsheng subconsciously wanted to get closer to take a look, but was stopped by Lin Yuan.

"Boss Lu, you can't get any closer."

"There is a ban set by the first generation chief here. If you get close to it casually, it will trigger the automatic counterattack of the defensive formation."

"The formation skills of the first generation chief are unpredictable, and the attacks launched are also strange and hard to defend against."

"To resist the attack of the formation, at least the strength of an eighth-level venerable is required."

"But even if you resist the first wave of attacks, as long as you get close to the door, the whole office will show extremely high temperatures, as if it is about to explode."

"Let's check it from a safe distance."

It is indeed a formation...

That's easy.

Lu Changsheng's heart was slightly relieved, and his eyes swept around, analyzing the formation layout here.

The external layout is very similar to that of the laboratory, but the eye of the formation seems to be set inside the office.

It is still impossible to fully confirm it by external observation alone.

However, according to Zhou Yi's habit, this kind of long-standing formation should leave a formation spirit.

Just knock on the door and try?

Lu Changsheng retracted his thoughts, slowly raised his right hand, and summoned a ball of [Netherworld Fire] to let it surround his body.

The momentum in his body gradually rose, and the powerful pressure gathered on the top floor of the Demon Slayer Division headquarters.

The whole building was faintly trembling.

"Boss Lu, what are you going to do?" Lin Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he didn't understand Lu Changsheng's actions.

"It's just an attempt. Anyway, it doesn't cost money to try it, right?" Lu Changsheng speculated on the character of his predecessor and said tentatively.

"I, Hu Hansan, am back again."
