This power armor is made entirely of the strongest S Level alloy, designed for military use, and is completely unavailable on the market.

The highest grade alloy available on the market is A Level.

Of course.

The materials used are secondary.

The main thing is the manufacturing technology of this armor, which gives ordinary people the ability to fight against martial artists.

Of course.

The ones who can operate power armor are mostly martial artists themselves, who can fully utilize the capabilities of the power armor.

The woman in front of them is clearly a member of the power armor group.

The metal nameplate on her armor reads "Liu Qing," which is obviously her name, followed by a string of numbers.

Baiyu couldn't see her face clearly.

Her entire body was encased in the mechanical armor, and if she didn't speak, Baiyu wouldn't even know she was a woman.

"Okay, let's go now."

Qiu Yun didn't say much and followed behind this armored group soldier, with Baiyu and He Jin following suit.

The military zone is not small.

It houses several hundred thousand soldiers with a complete set of living facilities, essentially a closed mini-society.

It also includes military factories and the like.

Thus, the entire area occupies a vast expanse.

Led by Liu Qing, the three of them got into a power armor vehicle and drove all the way to the center of the military zone.

It was an immense square.

In the center stood a colossal stone statue over a hundred meters tall, depicting a man covered in scars and holding a heavy sword.

Every part of the statue was exquisitely crafted except for the face, which was left blank with no carvings.

Clearly, this was a statue dedicated to the military's deity, the "Scar God."

At this moment, the square was filled with a sea of soldiers, all wearing the uniform of the Imperial Army, standing with their backs straight, the atmosphere solemn and silent, with nobody speaking.

The crowd was organized into square formations.

An avenue was left open in the middle.

Baiyu looked at this scene, silently estimating the strength and configuration of the Imperial Army.

It was clear that those standing below were not ordinary soldiers, as it was possible to discern their unit types based on the gear they wore and the combat machinery parked beside their formations.

Needless to say.

There were many types of troops.

In addition to professional martial artist corps, many were high-tech units, featuring technology unavailable outside but visible here.

Baiyu and the others proceeded to the high platform in the center of the square.

Then,

The three of them gave speeches.

As the Director of the Security Bureau, Baiyu didn't have much to say, just a few casual words, and then the formal ceremony began.

The ceremony was extremely tedious.

Moreover, the offerings exceeded Baiyu's expectations.

Besides burning swords in the furnace, the ceremony even involved throwing bullets and such into the flames.

Don't these guys fear an explosion?

Baiyu had witnessed numerous divine sacrifice ceremonies, but it was his first time seeing such a bizarre spectacle.

The entire ceremony took up two hours.

Baiyu sat drowsily on the left side of the high platform, completely uninterested.

However.

Just as the ceremony concluded,

Baiyu suddenly opened his eyes, sensing an unusual atmosphere over the entire square.

An extraordinary power enveloped this place!

And its source...

Baiyu focused his senses for a while and finally confirmed that the source was the giant statue behind him!

The statue of the Scar God!

He Jin whispered at this time, "Do you feel it? This is the power blessed by the Scar God, enhancing the combat strength of all soldiers."

Baiyu nodded.

It seemed these divine spirits indeed had some tricks up their sleeves.

Since Baiyu was not a follower of the Scar God, he didn't receive any blessing.

Otherwise, he would have wanted to feel what it was like to be blessed by a divine spirit.

After the ceremony ended,

Baiyu had nothing else to do and was arranged by Qiu Yun to be accompanied by two soldiers for a tour of the military zone.

The facilities here were extremely advanced.

There were biological research institutes, arms research institutes, and so on, all of which were comprehensive.

Baiyu took a tour and finally stopped at the arms research institute, where besides rows of workbenches, many individuals in protective suits were busily working.

"Everyone working here is professor-level professionals, and they have developed numerous new weapons.

If you, Director, need any weapons, you can let them know.

They can provide you with the most perfect modification plan and create it."

One of the soldiers leading the way said.

Baiyu thought for a moment, took out the Shark Bite from his pocket, and asked, "Can it really be modified? This pistol is a magical item; can you upgrade it?"

The soldier had spoken casually earlier, not expecting Baiyu to take him seriously.

He had to nod and insist, "Of course we can; even magical items can be modified by the master of the Craftsman Sequence!"

Then,

The soldier took Baiyu to visit several professors, all of whom declared they were unable to help.

The soldier was sweating profusely.

He had just bragged in front of the leader, only to be proven wrong instantly; even if Baiyu didn't care, it was embarrassing for him.

The other soldier guiding them suggested, "Why not take it to Master Peng? It's clear this pistol has been modified before, and upgrading it on the basis of prior modifications is not a simple task."

"Master Peng? Is he the chief master of the military factory?"
