Some time ago, with Yun Xingze’s help, the research institute developed the first-generation mental power amplifier, which had an amplification factor of about 1.5. But they have been stuck at this bottleneck since then.
Then they unexpectedly discovered that Yun Xingze had developed an amplifier with an amplification factor of 2.61. He even inadvertently told everyone that this was actually a relatively “backward” technology.
Now, he is preparing to develop an amplifier with a factor of 4.1 or higher. To everyone in the research institute, this sounds like fantasy.
What’s more, Yun Xingze plans to invent a new type of mecha at the same time.
But shock is shock. No one doubts his ability.
“This is too unscientific.” Ming Xiao looked at Yun Xingze’s back with emotion. “Everyone is a military academy student, why can I only be an intern assistant?”
Ming Xiao is a top student at Noah Military Academy. He has made many achievements in the field of theoretical mecha research, even publishing a paper early in his freshman year. He has long been a leader at Noah Military Academy.
But compared to Yun Xingze, he was nothing.
“Ming Xiao, you’re already great.” Jin Xuan patted Ming Xiao’s shoulder with encouragement. “As long as you don’t compare with Yun Xingze.”
“However, I’m really curious,” Cheng Yuan frowned slightly, with confusion in his eyes. “Where did Yun Xingze learn this knowledge from?”
Everyone was puzzled by Cheng Yuan’s question.
When Jin Xuan asked this question out of curiosity, Yun Xingze replied: He is interested in mechas, and has been secretly learning related knowledge since he was a child.
This answer made everyone admire Yun Xingze even more. They felt that he was a once-in-a-century genius.
In fact, these technologies were all developed by Yun Xingze in his previous life.
He’s just recreating his original technology while trying to figure out a method to make it even better than before.
In order to make Yun Xingze’s research and development process smoother, Cheng Yuan assigned him the largest laboratory and said to him, “You can use all the resources in the research institute as you like, including all the scientific researchers, including me.”
Cheng Yuan had seen Yun Xingze’s “waste manuscripts” and knew the value of Yun Xingze.
With Cheng Yuan’s help, Yun Xingze’s research and development plan quickly took shape.
In the past, when he was developing the amplifier, only Eugene helped out. But now there is a group of people helping, so his efficiency is naturally different.
Although the researchers can get in touch with the research and development process, most of the time they just listen to Yun Xingze’s command without understanding of the technical contents.
Why set an inflection point at this step, and shorten the bond in the next step…
Yun Xingze didn’t explain it to them. Or in other words, even if he explained it, they wouldn’t understand.
Regarding the new mecha and 4.1x amplifier, Yun Xingze did not intend to disclose the technology for the time being.
Because he wants to use these two things to complete his plan.
However, in order to thank Dean Cheng Yuan for his help, Yun Xingze decided to donate the mental power amplification technology with an amplification factor of 2.61 to the research institute.
“Really?!” Cheng Yuan widened his eyes in surprise. “You want to give this technology to us for free?!”
Jin Xuan covered her mouth in shock, then rushed to Yun Xingze, wishing to kowtow to him a few times. “That’s great, that’s really great. Xingze, you are simply a living buddha of the scientific research institute…”
“In fact, I originally thought that you would be able to study the technical route through those scrap manuscripts and the black box.” Yun Xingze looked at Jin Xuan with a little embarrassment. “This technology is really not difficult. With those scraps and some hard work, you can easily create another amplifier.”
The audience fell silent.
Eugene looked at Yun Xingze and opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
He didn’t know how to tell the genius, it’s not that they didn’t want to work hard, but that all the bigwigs in the research institute gathered together and failed to crack the mystery of those scrapped manuscripts.
Although Yun Xingze said that those manuscripts were backward “waste manuscripts”, for Eugene, except for several footnoted places which were understandable, the rest of it was like an undecipherable book from heaven.
“Xingze, we will work hard,” Ming Xiao said with restrained excitement. “And try to understand what you wrote…”
Yun Xingze generously sent all the results of his previous research to Jin Xuan’s optical brain.
Although Yun Xingze felt that these things were just the result of some experiments, everyone in the research institute treated it as a treasure.
After Jin Xuan opened the file, she eagerly began to read the research and development records written by Yun Xingze.
After just reading one page, she had a feeling of enlightenment.
“It turns out that it can still be like this…” Jin Xuan stared blankly at the screen, feeling that the achievements in the first half of her life were not comparable to the random paragraphs in these manuscripts. “It’s incredible.”
Cheng Yuan stood on the side. He watched for a while, and gradually indulged in the powerful technical system built by Yun Xingze, lamenting that Yun Xingze’s understanding of mecha is far ahead of this era.
Only then did they understand why the little black box Yun Xingze invented was so powerful.
For the Imperial Mecha Research Institute, this day is a day that is enough to go down in history.
Compared to Cheng Yuan, Jin Xuan and others who were ecstatic, Yun Xingze was very calm.
With the research and development plan he developed, he will probably be able to manufacture the new mecha before the NCLM finals.
The speed is something that no one else can even imagine.
After making the preliminary plan, it was getting late. Yun Xingze pulled away from the optical brain used for experimenting, stretched his waist, and decided to go back to the hotel where the school team was located.
He opened the private optical brain terminal, only to see that the school team members collectively sent him a message.
It turned out that Yun Xingze’s return to Noah Star was conveyed by the hospital to the Xinghai school team.
Among all the messages, Luo Wenchuan sent the most.
It feels a bit inconsistent with his cold and icy personality, nor is it like the terrible villain described in the original book.
[Yun Xingze: I’m awake, and I expect to return to Noah Star soon.]
[Luo Wenchuan: How is your body?]
[Luo Wenchuan: What time will you be back?]
[Luo Wenchuan: Where are you?]
[…]
Each message still had Luo Wenchuan’s short and neat style, never exceeding 5 words with proper punctuation at the end.
At first glance it feels like…
A cold talker.
Although this description is strange, Yun Xingze really thinks so.
Yun Xingze got on the aircraft provided by the research institute, raised his lips, and replied: [I’m already at Noah Star, and now I’m going back to the hotel.]
As soon as he sent the message, he received a reply from Luo Wenchuan in the next second.
[I’ll pick you up.]
[Do not refuse.]
Yun Xingze originally wanted go directly back to the hotel, but when he saw these four words, he suddenly recalled the scene of Luo Wenchuan picking him up from the dormitory that day.
So Yun Xingze asked the pilot of the aircraft to send himself to a park that was still some distance away from the hotel.
Afterwards, Yun Xingze typed a line and sent it to Luo Wenchuan. [Then pick me up at XX Park.]
Luo Wenchuan replied in seconds:
[Wait for me.]
[Coming soon.]
A small flame of anticipation ignited in Yun Xingze’s heart. He looked at the night scene outside the window, but he didn’t have the heart to appreciate it at all.
He just wanted to see Luo Wenchuan quickly.
However, as the aircraft got closer to the park, the small flame in Yun Xingze’s heart gradually became weaker.
The fire was still burning, but it was quenched by other emotions.
Yun Xingze reached out his hand involuntarily and slowly stroked the scar on the right side of his neck.
At that time, before the engagement banquet, when Yun Xingze made up his mind to cut his glands, he couldn’t help but think of Luo Wenchuan.
Would Luo Wenchuan be sad if his glands were cut?
He knew that the answer was yes.
But he still chose to pick up the light knife and fight for his own destiny.
Now, he has lost his glands and has become a beta. His body will no longer have pheromones. And Luo Wenchuan is the heir of the royal family…
Thinking of this, bleakness flashed in his eyes.
Yun Xingze knew that Luo Wenchuan would not alienate him because he became a beta.
But as long as he thought of Luo Wenchuan holding him with eyes were red with anxiety, his heart couldn’t help but tighten.
When Yun Xingze arrived at the park, Luo Wenchuan had already arrived.
Luo Wenchuan’s aircraft was parked at the entrance of the park. He was wearing black casual clothes, with long arms and legs, and his extraordinary temperament.
With his back against the aircraft, he tapped the hatch with his fingers, with a bit of anxiety in his eyes.
The next second, Luo Wenchuan noticed Yun Xingze’s figure and quickly raised his eyes to look at him.
The moment their eyes met, the air between the two seemed to freeze for a second.
Luo Wenchuan’s facial features are still cold and deep, but Yun Xingze could tell that he lost some weight. Was he training too hard recently?
After Luo Wenchuan saw Yun Xingze, he quickly reacted and walked towards him with his long legs.
Yun Xingze’s heart was inexplicably nervous.
Not long after, Luo Wenchuan walked in front of Yun Xingze. When he looked down at Yun Xingze’s eyes, his eyes flickered slightly.
Yun Xingze’s heartbeat began to speed up, as he had the illusion of falling into those narrow and beautiful black eyes.
“You…” Yun Xingze swallowed and said slowly, “Why did you have to come pick me up?”
He said this to ease the atmosphere. But after asking, he felt a little regret. This question seemed like nonsense.
According to Luo Wenchuan’s personality, he would definitely answer “I happen to be free”, “I’m afraid you got lost”, or at best, “I’m worried about your injury”.
Probably no more than five words.
Luo Wenchuan suddenly took a step forward.
He approached Yun Xingze. Nodding lightly, he reduced the distance between their faces until they could only hold each other in their eyes.
Then, his low and magnetic voice came:
“Because, I wanted to see you sooner.”
Hehehe. Lots of MC/ML coming up. 🥰
