Chapter 136: The Significance of Modulation

The car passed through the bustling streets at night, and the light and shadow of the colorful slide lights kept flowing on the car, but Shen Zheng had no intention of looking at the night view of the city outside the car.

The person who was going to meet him was the deputy commander of the military region, the second most important person after the deputy commander-in-chief, and a powerful insect melter.

Insect melters are people who perfectly integrate insect power with themselves. They have transcended the crowd and become a powerful existence between humans and insects. They no longer need to borrow or control insect power because they are insects themselves.

As Su Dong, the new first-level tutor of Longxing Academy, told Shen Zheng, in ancient times, their earth ancestors called everything in the world insects and divided them into five categories, and humans were naked insects among the five categories - both naked scales and feathers, and smart and wise.

Humans are originally insects, so only insect melters are real people? Or, only when you reach that level can you truly be called a member of the "five insects" world mentioned by the ancients? [

Then what about the people below it?

Perhaps in the eyes of the real cosmic biological family, they are tiny bugs.

Unconsciously, the car has left the downtown and arrived at the center of the entire city, in front of the headquarters that is like a city within a city. The tall steel gate, the towering concrete wall, and the fully armed gate guards make it easy to tell what kind of place this is.

Arriving at the gate, Luther got off the car and talked to the guards in person. The steel gate was slowly opened and the car drove in. After passing a long forest road, it came to a large courtyard.

The car stopped next to the fountain landscape in the courtyard. A guard came to open the door for them and welcomed them to the central building in the courtyard. The building is six stories high, with a four-story wing on each side, which seems to have different functions.

Entering from the double-open golden gate, going forward all the way, turning through two corridors, and entering a large house. The four walls of the house are decorated with a classical atmosphere, with some ancient paintings hanging on the wall, a long round table in the middle, and a rotating tabletop in the middle.

"Deputy Commander, Commander Shen Zheng is here."

After entering the house, Lu Jin shouted into the house, and then a small door on the side of the house slowly opened, and an old man in his sixties walked out slowly.

Shen Zheng looked at the old man, trying to find out his details, but he couldn't see anything. He couldn't help but want to use supersensory perception to observe the old man, but in the end he didn't dare. He didn't know how strong the power of the molten insect was. What if he acted recklessly and angered the old man? That was not a joke.

The old man had a dignified appearance, and there was a sense of majesty between his eyebrows. At first glance, he was a person who had been in a high position for a long time. He nodded to Luther: "You go to the next door to eat."

"Okay." Luther also nodded casually, then turned around and walked out, closing the door for the two of them.

Shen Zheng couldn't help but feel a little strange-Luther was also very polite and respectful when facing them, the reserve generals. He even said hello when he went out and took a few steps back before turning around. Why was he so casual when facing the deputy commander?

"Hello, Deputy Commander!" Shen Zheng didn't dare to be casual, he straightened his body and saluted the old man with a standard military salute.

The old man laughed and pointed to the table: "Sit down."

"Yes." Shen Zheng sat down on this side of the round table, and the old man sat down on the other side. At this time, the door slowly opened, and a waiter brought in one dish after another, a total of eight dishes plus a soup, plus two bottles of wine.

"Let me introduce myself first." The old man waited for the waiter to leave, and said with a smile, "I am the deputy commander of the 12th Military Region, my surname is Lu, and my name is Lu Jin."

Surname Lu? Shen Zheng had a question mark in his mind. It can't be such a coincidence.

"The guy in charge of your reserve generals' living area is my younger brother." Lu Jin continued.

Sure enough! [

"Not too similar." Shen Zheng looked at Lu Jin, recalled Lu Se's appearance, smiled and shook his head.

"Each of the nine sons of a dragon is different." Lu Jin also laughed, "It's hard to say. Some people are thousands of miles apart and have no blood relationship, but they look almost exactly the same; some people are twins from the same mother, but their looks are very different. But we two brothers are okay. I look like my dad and he looks like my mom."

"There is such a thing." Shen Zheng nodded, and at the same time thought: Oh my god, no wonder this Luther is usually calm and composed to everyone. His brother is the deputy commander and the worm melter. With such a strong background, of course he is calm and composed. However, with such an amazing brother, how could he become the head of that kind of waiter?

"Come, eat." Lu Jin opened the wine, handed a bottle to Shen Zheng, and filled a glass for himself. "I don't have any other hobbies, just eat good food and drink good wine. When I meet someone I like, I will ask him to share this happiness with me."

"Then I thank the deputy commander for his kindness." Shen Zheng raised his glass and gestured in the air. Lu Jin raised his glass with a smile, and they drank together.

"I heard that you only have one sister?" Lu Jin asked.

"Yes." Shen Zheng nodded, "When we were young, our parents had a car accident. I had no choice but to drop out of school and work to support my family and my sister's schooling."

"When God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his mind suffer, his muscles and bones work, and his body hungry." Lu Jin nodded slightly.

"The deputy commander seems to appreciate ancient culture very much." Shen Zheng heard the other party read out this ancient article, and then saw the ancient paintings hanging on the wall, and he had guessed what Lu Jin was interested in.

"That's right." Lu Jin nodded. "I have always longed for the leisure and freedom of my ancient ancestors. It is a pity that it is not easy to find such joy in this world now."

"Each era has its own characteristics," Shen Zheng said. "Perhaps it's just that the height of this mountain makes our ancient ancestors know how we are living now. Maybe they still yearn for it and beat their chests, wishing they couldn't live to this day."

Lu Jin couldn't help but feel happy: "It's so interesting to talk to you. Unlike those guys, who either rob for benefits or flatter you and pretend to be respectful. Have fun! Come and have a drink."

The two raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

Afterwards, the two of them drank and chatted, mostly gossip. After drinking and eating, Lu Jin stood up and motioned for Shen Zheng to follow him. Together, they followed the door through which Lu Jin came in just now and arrived at an antique room. The furniture here is all made of wood and full of classical flavor. There is a large set of tea sets on a tea table, and the aroma of tea floats in the room.

The two sat down at the tea table. Lu Jin made a pot of tea himself and poured it for Shen Zheng. Shen Zheng was not too polite and accepted it calmly.

"Many people don't pay much attention to modulation." Lu Jin finally got to the point. "That's because they don't understand the charm of it, and they don't understand how much benefit it can bring to people."

"To be honest, I thought this technology was quite useless at first." Shen Zheng nodded, "For example, we insect controllers can generally prepare intermediate-grade insect cores. The strongest geniuses use high-quality proto-cores. We have just concocted a high-grade insect core that is effective for insect controllers, so for ordinary insect controllers, the modulation technique is really not of much use.”

"Yes." Lu Jin nodded slowly, "It often takes a day to prepare an insect core, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. And more insect controllers can only prepare intermediate products, and mid-level products Although it is a good thing for insect planters, it is completely useless for insect controllers, because it can no longer increase the insect controller's insect power, but can only slightly enhance the quality of the insect controller's insect power. Many people simply give up studying this technology.”

Shen Zheng smiled: "That's true. It can be said that modulation is a technology that serves 'lower people' and can only be used to win over planters. My past mentor told me that the reason why many people continue to study , In fact, it is just to give myself a chance. Maybe one day I will have a sudden enlightenment during the mixing process, and I will become a mixing genius, and then prepare a very strong insect core. "

For example, as an insect controller, he used insect cores that were not of very high quality to prepare high-quality insect cores.

High-quality insect cores are also a good thing for insect melters to increase insect power, especially for insect controllers. The minimum increase of 50 points of insect power is not very impressive for an insect controller who has the ultimate goal of "thousands", but if it can be accumulated continuously, it will become the only way to become stronger quickly.

It is precisely because of the temptation of such huge benefits that several people are willing to continue to delve into this technology that seems to only serve their "subordinates". [

"Yes. But." Lu Jin changed the subject, "Who said modulation techniques can only serve lower-level people? Even if it can only serve lower-level people, doesn't it make sense?"

"What do you mean?" Shen Zheng asked.

"Humans are social animals." Lu Jin said, "No one is born without all his relatives. Even if there is such a person, he at least has friends. No matter how strong he becomes, he can never let go of caring for his relatives and friends. It’s human nature. After you become strong, will you worry about your other family members and friends? At this time, if you can use insect cores to help them become strong, will you do it?”

"I understand." Shen Zheng thought of Shen Ying. Yes, even if he fails to become such a modulation genius, he will not give up the modulation technique, because maybe one day, Shen Ying will rely on this to become an insect controller.

"Also, brewing itself is also a kind of practice." Lu Jin said, "Concentrated brewing requires concentration of all one's energy. It is just like fighting a battle with a master, and it will make people understand a lot. In fact, progress has been made without realizing it. Moreover, although the prepared insect core cannot increase the insect power, is the improvement in quality necessarily weaker than the increase in quantity? Why do we have to increase the quantity first and then wait for the insect power to be reached? When the limit is no longer improved, should we consider improving the quality? ”

"I understand." Shen Zheng nodded again.

Lu Jin looked at Shen Zheng and smiled: "Talk to smart people to save worry and effort."
