Back then, these scientists received invitations from the Restoration Organization, offering conditions that would move anyone to action.
It was precisely because of the generous treatnt that all these scientists resolutely decided to join the Restoration Organization.
However, what these scientists did not anticipate was that despite the promises sounding good, once they were brought to this sunless underground lab, they had no choice at all.
They either chose to stay and work here, or they would be shot dead.
With no alternative, everyone had to choose to continue working here. Although they regretted it, they were powerless.
Ding Fan did not insist; he simply stated that if they wanted to work on Yongfan Island, he would offer generous compensation. However, if they wanted to leave, he would not stop them; everything was entirely up to personal choice.
In the end, none of the scientists chose to return to their countries; everyone was willing to go to Yongfan Island.
The primary reason for this was mainly related to their previous departure.
These scientists were all talent involved in the developnt of cutting-edge weapons in various countries; their departure had already infringed upon treason laws. If they were to return to their original countries now, they wouldn't escape being interrogated and facing imprisonnt. So, going to Yongfan Island seed to be a good choice.
Since this was the case, Ding Fan arranged for these people to leave here.
Ding Fan and Hu Jin specially communicated with each other. Hu Jin's side barely delayed any ti; within half a day, they prepared ten helicopters and two large transport aircraft to rush over.
The underground laboratory here was equipped with very advanced and comprehensive equipnt.
Naturally, Ding Fan did not hold back, moving all the things from the underground lab along with the scientists to Yongfan Island.
After a brief farewell to Mu Zi, Ding Fan followed the helicopters back.
These scientists were arguably more important than anything else, so Ding Fan had to personally oversee their escort.
anwhile, as Ding Fan and the others were leaving, Mu Zi ard explosives and sank the entire island, as their mission was to destroy the laboratory there. Their task was now completely accomplished...
When Ding Fan brought the nurous scientists along with the laboratory equipnt back to Yongfan Island, Hu Jin almost went mad with joy.
Many of these scientists were well-known individuals, so even employed at the top research laboratories in The Stars and Stripes Country.
With a group like this, Yongfan Island's military research capability rose to an entirely new level.
After unloading all the scientists and equipnt, Hu Jin imdiately contacted Wang Zhian to arrange laboratory locations for these scientists.
After research, the scientific research laboratories were placed in an underground secret chamber in Peach Blossom Town.
The underground chamber was initially a place where a local Tusi hid gold. After modification and expansion, it beca the best place for a laboratory.
Firstly, it allowed them to avoid the public eye, secondly, even if war broke out, artillery would not easily reach them.
Hu Jin and Wang Zhian discussed it and took the suggestion to see Ding Fan. Ding Fan naturally had no objections either.
Even superpowers would secretly place their laboratories.
At this ti, due to the previous large-scale recruitnt of talent, Yongfan Island was developing rapidly, with all twelve small towns now having electricity, water supply, and complete streets.
Through the efforts of Fang Ruohan and Zhou Ruoran during this period, all residents of Yongfan Island were now accounted for. Simply put, all residents were registered, making security managent more convenient.
In the military aspect.
Because Ding Fan invested fifty billion, Huang Can managed to get a lot of good things from Smith again.
During this period of procurent, Yongfan Island mainly purchased anti-ship missiles.
Due to Yongfan Island's geographical location, if the enemy launched an attack, they could only use warships. Thus, anti-ship missiles beca Yongfan Island's main defense weapon.
Aside from normal developnt, Sun Qi also established a dicinal garden at the southeastern position of Yongfan Island.
The dicinal garden grows so low-grade Spirit Grass and other herbs…
It can be said that Yongfan Island is moving towards a bright future.
Ding Fan returned to the island and stayed for a few days, but he did not manage the island's affairs much. During these days, he was mainly at Sun Qi's place, imparting so thods of Alchemy to Sun Qi.
Since Sun Qi followed Ding Fan, his Alchemy skills had greatly improved. Because Ding Fan had previously given Sun Qi the Nine Luminaries Fire, he could now use this Heaven and Earth Strange Fire to refine so second-grade Pills.
It's noteworthy that before following Ding Fan, that was simply impossible; before following Ding Fan, being able to refine so first-grade Pills was already quite outstanding.
After staying on the island for a few days, Ding Fan hurriedly set out.
According to the tiline, it was now the ti for the Dejiang Hidden Sect Conference.
Ruan Yuan had been missing, and that Immortal Sect female disciple had not had any news either; now was just the right ti to go and see if any information could be gathered.
Ding Fan flew straight away by Sword Control that night.
Dejiang was not Ding Fan's first visit, so this ti he was well-acquainted and faced no trouble. To avoid unnecessary hassle, Ding Fan used Duorou to disguise his appearance along the way.
Upon reaching Dejiang, it was already around eleven to twelve at night; Ding Fan was thinking to find a place to settle down, then pay a visit to the Lu Family when daylight broke.
No matter what, when people from the Lu Family see Ding Fan, they would have to address him as Grandmaster Uncle; coming to Dejiang without visiting the Lu Family would not be proper.
At this ti, Ding Fan was sowhat speechless because the inns and hotels in Dejiang were all fully booked. For the past week, outsiders had been pouring in, and there was hardly any vacant room now.
Without choice, Ding Fan then had to try his luck at other inns.
Along the way, Ding Fan encountered quite a few martial artists, including three or four at the Earth Level.
It's worth noting that in the secular world, Earth Level martial artists are considered incredibly formidable; wasn't Ye Qingyun of the Ye Family an Earth Level Second Grade martial artist, holding up the family among the Four Great Families?
Now, Earth Level martial artists can be found everywhere, indicating that this Dejiang Hidden Sects eting is bound to be lively.
Ding Fan searched around and eventually, through persistent effort, found an empty room in a secluded corner.
Ding Fan was lucky—soone had just checked out when he arrived to look for a room, otherwise he wouldn't have found one.
Just as Ding Fan was about to check in, three people entered the inn from outside.
Among them was a seventy-sothing elder, whom Ding Fan examined with his Divine Sense, estimating his cultivation to be at least at the Heavenly Level.
However, this elder walked behind the other two.
The other two were young, a man and a woman, around twenty-two or twenty-three years old.
"We want this empty room..." At that mont, the young woman among the trio walked over and tossed a wad of cash in Ding Fan's direction.
The woman speaking was quite attractive, with fair skin, bright eyes, luscious red lips, and a slender figure—an alluring beauty who could captivate any man's gaze.
But the expression in her eyes and eyebrows revealed a spoiled, headstrong nature; she was evidently accustod to being domineering.
Ding Fan glanced at the money, which amounted to roughly a bit over a thousand bucks.
"Boss, please process my check-in," Ding Fan said casually to the innkeeper, ignoring the woman who spoke.
The woman who had thrown the money furrowed her brows slightly.
She had always been the center of attention wherever she went, pampered like a precious jewel since childhood...
And now, in this small inn, she was being blatantly ignored.
"Kid, give up the room, and I'll pay you ten thousand!" The woman, looking sowhat annoyed, said.
Ding Fan didn't even look at the woman. "Sorry, I won't give it up."
Ding Fan's attitude irked the woman imnsely.
"Sister, I think we should check out other inns," suggested the young man beside the woman.
The woman didn't pay any attention to what the young man said.
"Kid, I see you're from the Ancient Martial Sect. I'm Wu Weier from the Dongting Sect; if you know what's good for you, move aside!"
Ding Fan still ignored Wu Weier.
Wu Weier was quite incensed; being disregarded was a new experience for her. She directly kicked towards Ding Fan.
The kick was aid at Ding Fan's waist.
That was the weakest spot; if the kick landed, Ding Fan would be severely injured. The young man beside her exclaid, clearly not expecting his sister to act without warning...
But the young man was too late to assist, as it happened in an instant.
Ding Fan furrowed his brows slightly, surprised at the rudeness of the newcors.
After all, facing a re woman, if she had asked nicely, he wouldn't mind giving up the room to her. Ding Fan was fine with finding a quiet place to spend the night.
Previously, in the Cultivation World, sleeping outdoors in the wild was common.
However, imdiately upon her arrival, she was overbearing and now resorted to attacking from behind. It was just him; if it were anyone else, even with Earth Level cultivation, they couldn't evade her kick. It would leave them crippled.
Ding Fan swiftly shifted his position, dodging.
Bang...
Wu Weier's kick directly smashed the counter to pieces.
The young man beside them was stunned. He didn't expect Ding Fan to dodge the attack.
After initially reacting with amazent, he hastily grabbed Wu Weier.
"Sorry, my sister was too impulsive; please don't take it to heart," the young man said apologetically, smiling toward Ding Fan.
After casting a cold glance at the woman, Ding Fan turned and proceeded to his room without looking back.
"A wise man doesn't fight with won," thought Ding Fan, refusing to deal with the woman.
"Hey, don't just leave!" Wu Weier, seeing Ding Fan's disregard, beca even angrier.
However, the young man next to her held her firmly, preventing her from pursuing Ding Fan further.
The young man compensated the innkeeper for the damage and led Wu Weier out of the inn.
Trailing behind them, the elder glanced back as he left the inn.
"So young, and already at Heavenly Level cultivation?"...
