My skill in becoming a god is landmine mastery.

After dinner that evening, Yang Yao remembered to let the factory manager know he was safe before finally falling into a good night's sleep.

After all, the factory manager was a very nice person, and Yang Yao didn't want him to worry. The only thing was that he hadn't told the factory manager about the underground laboratory he'd set up in his dormitory.

Uh, the factory manager probably won't find out. Let's talk about it another time.

Yang Yao woke up feeling great the next day, completely refreshed. He hadn't actually been tired at all the day before; with his current energy, he felt he could go several days without sleep without any problem.

Yang Yao picked up his things and started washing up. Just then, Zhang Meng and Qi Lin burst in.

"Yang Yao, we have news from above. The lab you requested has been prepared and is just waiting for you!"

Looking at the two beautiful goddesses standing in front of him, Yang Yao's hand holding the toothbrush involuntarily paused.

"Um, I know what happened, but couldn't you at least knock before coming in? Can't you respect my privacy?"

"Oh, don't worry about the details. Besides, what's so interesting about it? I'm not Qi Lin, I've seen everything!" Zhang Meng casually waved her hand, brushing the matter aside.

Yang Yao involuntarily broke out in a cold sweat. As the saying goes, even a hero fears a female hooligan, but Zhang Meng was precisely that female hooligan.

What do you mean there's nothing to see? You haven't even seen it, how do you know? It would scare you to death if it were shown!

But Yang Yao really couldn't argue with Zhang Meng, who had such a thick skin. Thinking about what Zhang Meng had just said, Yang Yao asked while brushing his teeth:

"Why so fast? We just finished talking about it yesterday!"

"Hey! It's not like we need to build a new one for you. Finding an existing one is quick, right? We haven't even moved anything, you can just go and use it right away!"

Yang Yao nodded knowingly. It was indeed impossible to rebuild a new one at this time; that would take at least a year and a half, which would be very troublesome!

But he couldn't help but silently mourn for the researchers in that lab for a few seconds, knowing that this action was tantamount to halting all of that lab's research projects.

Unless it's something really important, those people will probably need to take a vacation.

Yang Yao was originally a researcher and was familiar with this rule, but he felt it was normal. Compared to his existing research projects, his own were more important.

"Then let's go in a bit. Oh, by the way, I'll give you a list when we get there. You can give it to your superiors and have them prepare the metal materials!"

"No, you're still ordering me around? You'll have to wait until you get there and find the comrade in charge of you to handle this. Besides, isn't your sister good to you? Why are you making us both tired? Are you unhappy that Qilin didn't come to serve you yesterday?"

Zhang Meng made a face, then winked cutely at Yang Yao.

Qi Lin quickly covered Zhang Meng's mouth. She finally understood why Zhang Meng, who was so beautiful, was almost thirty and still single. It was all because of her mouth!

Joining her team is the worst thing that could have happened to me!

Yang Yao paused for a moment while brushing his teeth, and smiled as he looked at Zhang Meng, who was still complaining.

"Sorry, Sister Meng, it looks like your vacation is over. I'll talk to the higher-ups and have the two of you continue as my bodyguards. Yes, you heard me right, the two of you. Come with me to the lab!"

"What? No, no, you can't treat me like this! Why don't you take Qilin with you? Qilin will definitely agree!"

Zhang Meng didn't want to go to the lab; the control there was too strict, and she couldn't stand it. She quickly asked Qi Lin to take her place, since she definitely wanted to stay with Yang Yao!

"Even if Qilin doesn't want to, I have to drag her along. Mengjie, it's no use if you don't want to. If you can talk to the higher-ups, I won't keep you here!"

Yang Yao laughed smugly. He didn't believe that the higher-ups could refuse him once he asked. If Zhang Meng refused, he would give her several hours of persuasion and make her keep talking about him and Qi Lin. Let's see if she can still talk about it then!

Zhang Meng seemed to have lost her soul, but Qi Lin was very happy, not only because of Yang Yao's words, but also because she felt a sense of relief at Zhang Meng's despairing state.

"No problem, we'll go with you. She'll definitely be willing too. You go ahead and get busy, I'll take Sister Meng to prepare for the plane!"

Qi Lin grabbed Zhang Meng by the collar and dragged her out, thoughtfully closing the door behind her for Yang Yao.

Watching Qi Lin and Zhang Meng leave, Yang Yao couldn't help but smile.

Putting everything else aside, Yang Yao definitely wants to take Qi Lin with him. She's a first-generation super gene carrier from the Shenhe Civilization. Although she's only a first-generation one, her strength is already quite impressive. Combined with Qi Lin's talent, she's a top-tier sniper.

Yang Yao certainly wouldn't let Qi Lin fade into obscurity, especially since Dukao hadn't yet discovered the super gene within her.

As for Zhang Meng, that was just a side thing; they were already acquainted. After spending a day together, Yang Yao also felt that Zhang Meng wasn't the type to give up easily.

Yang Yao knew that even though his profession had changed and he looked very powerful, the most important thing was still his landmine expertise, which was Yang Yao's first choice for survival in this universe!

But technological weapons need users; otherwise, they're just a pile of firewood. Basic weapons are nothing to mention, but truly advanced technology can't be manufactured in such large quantities.

Therefore, he might later create a super force comparable to Dukao's Super Soldier Corps, a true super force belonging to China.

There was no time to eat, so Qi Lin grabbed some simple food and pulled the listless Zhang Meng and Yang Yao onto the helicopter of the Juxia City Military Region, because Old Huang was already waiting for them.

An entire squadron of helicopters surrounded the plane Yang Yao and his group were traveling in. Well, the reason for using helicopters was probably for safety.

They were going to the Shennongjia research base, which was the laboratory that Yang Yao had set up!

The Shennongjia Research Base, one of China's top five laboratories, is little known because it is located deep within the Shennongjia Nature Reserve.

There are three regiments permanently stationed here within a 500-kilometer radius, carrying heavy firepower; their defensive capabilities are terrifying. Aside from lacking nuclear weapons, it's not impossible for them to even obtain missile launch authorization.

Through Zhang Meng's introduction, Yang Yao understood the extent of this laboratory's capabilities; it was, in short, terrifying.

Yang Yao was quite surprised that such a top-notch laboratory could evacuate its personnel so quickly!

After several hours of flight, Yang Yao and his group arrived safely. As soon as they disembarked from the helicopter, Yang Yao saw Old Huang, who had left the day before.

Behind Old Huang were three men in military uniforms; judging by their ranks, they should be the regimental commanders of the troops stationed around here.
