BATCFO Chapter 72.3

A figure suddenly appeared in Luo Wenchuan’s mind.

After a while, Luo Wenchuan replied, “I don’t need to tell you.”

“It’s that mecha master, right?” The queen directly said what Luo Wenchuan thought.

“Why, do you want to object?” Luo Wenchuan looked at the queen vigilantly.

“I didn’t mean that.” The queen hesitated for a while, as if she wanted to say something, but she held back. “However, no matching pheromone can be found for you currently, so you should still consider things carefully.”

The implication is that Yun Xingze and Luo Wenchuan do not have a high enough degree of matching, so Luo Wenchuan should not be willful.

“Do I have to find a partner with a high degree of matching?” Luo Wenchuan asked with a frown. “When partners are together, the most important thing is to like each other. What does it have to do with pheromones?”

The queen sighed faintly. “But in our family, there is a throne to inherit.”

Luo Wenchuan said without hesitation: “No matter the degree of matching with Yun Xingze, the only person I like is him.”

“But if, in the future, another party appears and you have a high degree of matching,” the queen frowned slightly and said softly, “are you so sure you won’t regret it?”

“Yes.”¹Yes as in won’t regret Luo Wenchuan said firmly.

There was a firm light in his eyes. It was a diamond-like light that had appeared in his eyes since he was a child.

All along, it has never changed.

The queen was stunned, and did not continue to persuade Luo Wenchuan, but said: “Many things are predestined, let’s go with the flow.”

Luo Wenchuan felt that the queen’s words hid some deeper meaning, but he had no way of knowing what it was.

“Tomorrow night, the royal family will hold a press conference.” The queen said to Luo Wenchuan. “Whether the king chooses you or the eldest prince, I hope you are both healthy and happy.”

Luo Wenchuan could hear the faint worry in the queen’s voice.

“Don’t worry,” Luo Wenchuan stood up with a flat tone. “For me, I have found something more important than power and the crown. I won’t disturb mother any longer.”

After speaking, he got up and left.

The queen’s eyes followed Luo Wenchuan’s back until the door closed.

—–

Late at night.

Yun Xingze sent a few messages to Luo Wenchuan, but Luo Wenchuan seemed to be busy and did not reply to him.

At this time, Yun Xingze unexpectedly received a communication from the research institute.

It was Cheng Yuan himself who called.

After connecting, Yun Xingze was taken aback. Almost all the core staff of the Imperial Mecha Research Institute appeared on the other side of the screen.

After Jin Xuan discovered the scrap blueprint, she conducted in-depth research, and the results shocked all researchers.

Soon, Cheng Yuan rushed back to the research institute in the middle of the night.

“Xingze, tell us quickly, what the hell is going on?!” Jin Xuan anxiously held the paper, shaking it in front of Yun Xingze. “When did you research this??”

Yun Xingze immediately reacted – it turned out that his scraps were discovered.

“These are useless,” Yun Xingze said calmly. “It doesn’t help increase the amplification factor by much.”

“It doesn’t help?!” Ming Xiao’s eyes widened in surprise. “Then you have a more powerful method?”

Everyone stared at Yun Xingze, including Cheng Yuan.

In the eyes of everyone, Yun Xingze nodded slowly: “Yes. In the cabinet next to the shelf in my laboratory, there is a connector with a fairly low amplification rate. You can try it.”

The crowd froze in place.

The research institute has not made much progress after days of busy experimentation, but Yun Xingze has already made a connector?!

Cheng Yuan’s words were a little uncertain: “Is, it’s the kind of… neural connector that can amplify mental power?!”

“Otherwise?” Yun Xingze raised his eyebrows. “In order to thank you for lending me a laboratory, I can lend it to you for free.”

Everyone rushed into Yun Xingze’s laboratory. Eugene relied on his own knowledge of the laboratory, and found the black box connector.

“This is it?” Eugene stared blankly at the connector. “I, I thought, this was a useless box…”

“Eugene, you and Yun Xingze have been together for so long and haven’t found out?” Jin Xuan scolded him with some reproach. “If I had known earlier, I might as well asked to be Yun Xingze’s assistant!”

After that, Jin Xuan snatched the connector from Eugene’s hand.

Eugene wanted to cry without tears. God, how could Professor Jin Xuan take his anger at him. Yun Xingze did not leave any instructions, how can anyone understand it?!

Who would have thought that this ordinary military academy cadet actually mastered technology that was at least ten years ahead of the Imperial Mecha Research Institute!

When Cheng Yuan, Jin Xuan, and the others conducted a small test with the connector, they were again frightened and speechless.

“Zoom, zoom in on the magnification factor,” Ming Xiao rubbed his eyes vigorously, feeling that he could not count anymore. “Two, two…”

“2.61,” Yun Xingze knew this number without looking at the screen. “Right??”

Jin Xuan mechanically and stiffly turned her head to look at Yun Xingze. Opening her mouth, her voice trembled when she spoke. “This, this… this thing, you just threw it in the cabinet so casually?!”

Eugene was sweating all over.

Yun Xingze developed a neural connector with an amplification factor of 2.61 himself, and his assistant completely missed this moment of witnessing history?!

“Oh my God, 2.61…” Cheng Yuan looked at the black box and felt that he had seen a peerless treasure. “I thought that before I died, I might not be able to see the magnification factor above 2.5…”

Everyone’s expressions became solemn.

Jin Xuan’s hands were shaking while holding the connector. She swallowed and asked Yun Xingze, “Excuse me, how should we store this, er, this super connector?”

Jin Xuan even gave it a name: Super Connector.

“Store?” Yun Xingze was stunned, “Do whatever.”

“How can you be this casual!” Cheng Yuan’s eyes widened. “Xingze, if you take this thing out, the whole galaxy will go crazy! The Alliance may directly drive a battleship to catch you!”

“What I meant by whatever is,” Yun Xingze scratched his head and said, “No one can open this black box except me.”

Ming Xiao said after carefully observing the black box: “Yes, the technology of this black box… I’m afraid it is beyond the technical scope of our scientific research institute.”

Everyone looked at Yun Xingze as if they saw a god.

“Anyway, you have such a big heart, and such a precious thing is left like this…” Jin Xuan still couldn’t calm down, and carefully put the connector in a safe. “Before you come back, we will take good care of it.”

“You really don’t need to…” Yun Xingze held his forehead and looked at Jin Xuan’s actions, feeling a little embarrassed. “The coefficient is only 2.61. It’s just a semi-finished product.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the research institute fell into silence.

They all looked at the boy in the light screen in unison, with a trance on their faces.

Their expressions seemed to say, “Do I deserve to hear such words?”

After a long silence.

Eugene looked at Yun Xingze, suppressed his excitement and said, “Big boss, big boss, come back soon. Please let us see the more advanced connector, I beg you, even if you open this black box. Okay…”

“Xingze, as long as you come back, I will definitely give you a position in the research institute.” Cheng Yuan was still rational, but his fiery eyes betrayed his inner ecstasy. “No matter what you need, we will satisfy you. You… or I’ll change my office into your lounge to make you happy?”

Yun Xingze was stunned. “That’s not necessary…”

“Xingze, you are the most senior talent in the empire now. “Jin Xuan frowned and said, “We will keep it a secret for you. When your business is finished tomorrow, we will immediately send the highest-level spaceship to pick you up back to Noah Star.”

Yun Xingze nodded. “I understand.”

“Can I take the liberty to ask, what are you going to do when you go back?” Cheng Yuan asked.

He couldn’t wait to meet Yun Xingze again.

Yun Xingze sighed: “My family is forcing a marriage, and I came back to refuse.”

Cheng Yuan showed a surprised expression. “How could a genius like you be forced to marry?”

Jin Xuan also frowned and said, “Are your parents’ brains flooded with water?”

The researchers were all stunned – the boss of the dignified Changsheng Mecha Company actually forced his genius son to marry someone else!

Eugene’s face was full of confusion and shock: “It must be said, this is an event that even the Editor-in-Chief of the official account²Not important; think some higher up who deals with shocking things will be shocked to see.”

“I have already refused, and I should be able to come back tomorrow.” Yun Xingze said calmly. He thought that when Luo Wenchuan’s affairs were finished, he would go back to Noah Star with him.

“That’s good,” Cheng Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. “If I had son like you, whoever dares to force marriage, I’ll break their leg.”

Others also agreed with Cheng Yuan’s rude remarks.

After all, they know better than anyone the value of Yun Xingze to the Imperial Mecha Research  Institute, the empire, and even the entire interstellar space.

Only the Yun family did not understand.

Should be the damn Yun family and Chi family. 😠
