144: Zhang Xingchen Technology, the first generation of armor

In a certain underground black market in Yaoguang City, Liming District, Great Xia, six figures had silently entered.

Leading them was a white-haired Elder, who, despite appearing old, had eyes that shone brightly.

If Li Wuji were here, he would certainly recognize this person; it was none other than Su Wuming. He had actually come from the White Tiger District to the adjacent Liming District.

"Go!"

As his voice fell, three of the five figures behind him stepped out and walked towards various directions in the black market.

The five individuals appeared to be young people around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. While not exceptionally handsome, their appearances were definitely clean-cut.

The only strange thing was their hair colors, which were all different: golden yellow, red, green, blue, and earthy yellow.

This corresponded to the Five Elements; they were the Five Elements Armor that Su Wuming had created back then.

However, to avoid attracting attention, Su Wuming created five combat robots, named Su Yao, Su Sen, Su Miao, Su Fen, and Su Yan respectively, and concealed the armor within them.

Once in combat mode, the armor could instantly cover their entire bodies, greatly enhancing the strength they could display.

Su Wuming led the remaining two people behind him to a quiet corner and waited silently. After about an hour, the three returned one after another.

"Boss, the procurement is complete."

Su Yao spoke in a deep voice and respectfully handed the three storage rings in his hand to Su Wuming.

"Very good. With this, our Star Technology's first-generation armor can be completed!"

Su Wuming took it with fervent eyes. "Once this batch of first-generation armor is released, my name, Su Wuming, will resound throughout Great Xia!"

The reason for coming to Liming District was because of its abundant resources; seventy percent of Great Xia's scientific research companies were located here.

All kinds of markets supporting this were available, so Liming District was the most suitable place for Su Wuming, whether for development or any other reason.

For this, he had even registered a company in advance. Although the entire company currently only had six people, this was not an issue at all.

Soon, the six arrived at a somewhat dilapidated three-story building in the suburbs. The four characters "Star Technology" flickered with a faint red light on the rooftop.

Su Wuming entered the main door. Su Yan guarded the entrance and did not go in. Su Sen also leaped onto the roof, his eyes emitting a faint blue light as he scanned everything around him.

Inside the small building, the first floor was empty except for a few tables and chairs. The four went directly to the second floor.

Here, along the surrounding walls, were placed numerous dormancy pods, each containing a humanoid robot with its chest cavity open.

A rough count showed there were as many as fifty. Wires of varying thickness were plugged into their bodies.

Su Wuming glanced at them and went upstairs again. The third floor was filled entirely with precision instruments and equipment.

"It's about to begin!"

Su Wuming took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. Although he no longer needed to breathe, he still couldn't hide his excitement.

He took out the storage rings from earlier, then took out the various strangely shaped Materials he had prepared beforehand, and immediately began making energy cores.

After an unknown amount of time, energy cores were produced one by one, but the matter did not end there.

He raised his arm, and immediately his arm began to deform, and things resembling sockets appeared.

Fourteen unusually futuristic chips were plugged into them. Although they were just chips, it was as if stars were flickering inside them.

"Boss!"

At this moment, Su Fen, Su Miao, and Su Yao had each carried in three dormancy pods.

Su Wuming didn't reply. He first opened the doors of the dormancy pods, then with a raise of his hand, nine energy cores and nine strange chips entered the chests and foreheads of these nine robots respectively.

As a series of mechanical sounds rang out, the energy cores and chips had integrated into them.

The next moment, the originally silent eyes of these nine robots suddenly lit up, and then their appearances changed.

Before long, nine men and women, all appearing to be around thirty or forty years old, walked out. Their appearances were indistinguishable from normal people.

Moreover, the eyes of the nine individuals held expressions of intelligence, making it impossible to underestimate them.

"Greetings, Boss!"

The nine called out in unison. Su Wuming nodded with satisfaction; this was his latest creation.

They were not combat robots like Su Yao and the others, but research robots created entirely for scientific research.

"I'll give you one month to produce sixty thousand sets of the first-generation armor!"

"Yes, Boss!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the nine individuals walked to a corner of the room where there was a two-square-meter platform.

The nine successively stepped onto it, and the next moment they disappeared.

In the basement of this building, the area had long been hollowed out by Su Yao and the other five, leaving a vast space of one hundred thousand square meters, which had been meticulously arranged.

The nine had arrived here. Looking at the equipment and piles of Materials inside, they began production without any hesitation.

Upstairs, Su Wuming took out the remaining five chips. "These five are Advanced combat Systems. Install them!"

"Yes, Boss!"

Su Yao and the other two directly took the chips and placed them on their foreheads. It was as if the chips sensed something and immediately vanished.

The remaining two also successfully integrated them and took the remaining two to deliver to Su Yan and Su Sen.

"How is it?"

Su Wuming asked. Su Yao remained silent for a moment before replying, "Dealing with an average Martial General Realm mid-stage is not a problem, but based on the current energy estimate of the body, we can only fight for one hour."

"Understood!"

Su Wuming was not surprised. "Once this first-generation armor is sold, I will upgrade you."

"Yes!"

Three days passed in a flash, and six thousand sets of the first-generation armor had been manufactured.

This first-generation armor had black as its main color, stood about two meters tall, and, coupled with the faint blue light emitted by the visor, gave off a cold and fierce impression.

"Boss, after debugging, this generation of armor is mainly suitable for Martial Artists in the Martial Warrior Realm. After equipping it, jumping three minor Realms to fight is not a problem." A Middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses reported to Su Wuming. This was one of the original nine research robots.

Upon hearing this, a sharp glint flashed in Su Wuming's eyes. "Very good. Send five hundred sets each to the Yaoguang City Martial Security Bureau and the Military Department.

Additionally, Su Yao, take one hundred sets to the black market for trade to build up a reputation first."

"Yes!"

Su Yao, who was standing by, took the order and left. The Middle-aged man did not leave, clearly having something else to say.

"Boss, there is something else I need to report to you."

"Speak!"

Su Wuming closed his eyes, seemingly thinking about something. As he spoke, he raised his hand and gestured in front of him.

"Regarding the plasma weapons you previously asked us to research, we currently lack sufficient Materials. The research and development of new equipment also require funding and Materials.

Currently, apart from manufacturing the first-generation armor, we are severely short on funding and Materials, so..."

Su Wuming slowly opened his eyes and raised his hand to stop the man's words. "I understand. For now, focus on manufacturing the first-generation armor. I will prepare the funding and Materials."

"Yes!"
