Chapter 1092: Chapter 15 taphysics
“Dammit! How can you address The Godfather by na like that! It’s so disrespectful!”
Big Face Cat was infuriated, his palm saring across in a slap.
The sa skill couldn’t hit twice, Lin Xian directly used a flash move to dodge and stepped forward.
I never would have thought…
I truly never could have imagined.
How could Gao Wen, a scholar and academic, possibly have anything to do with soone like The Godfather, a cri syndicate leader?
And looking at the appearance and attire of Emperor Gao Wen, apart from looking significantly older with white hair atop his head… In terms of aura and temperant, he wasn’t much different from the previous dreamlands.
His eyes still shone with intelligence and steadiness, devoid of any malevolence or murderous intent.
How could such a person be The Godfather of the City of Sin?
“Co back, Lin Xian! Don’t be rude!”
As Lin Xian’s elder sister figure, Xu Yiyi was also scared, dragging Lin Xian back and glaring at him sternly:
“You have to greet The Godfather properly first!”
“It’s not…”
Lin Xian was a bit speechless.
I was just complaining about how many rules there are in Donghai City, so how co there’s a whole set of rituals for seeing The Godfather in the City of Sin?
There are quite a few rules here, too.
Does the dragon-slayer youth ultimately beco the dragon?
“Alright, enough.”
Gao Wen in front waved his hand impatiently:
“I’ve said it before, don’t bother with so many formalities. The Godfather or not, I’m a scientist who has been forcefully placed in this position by you all… sigh…”
He sighed and looked at Big Face Cat:
“The original agreent was to have your father, Chen Heping, be the spokesman for the City of Sin, but your dad’s health deteriorated from fatigue, falling sick and dying in the process of creating the Ti Shuttle Machine with .”
“I often regret that he, the greatest contributor to changing the future of mankind, never got to see the mont when the Ti Shuttle Machine was activated. It’s truly a pity.”
“You all call The Godfather, but I’m hardly worthy of the na. This City of Sin just needs a Godfather, who it is doesn’t really matter, there just has to be a Godfather here to hold the fort.”
“Big Face, you’re not an outsider either, I’ve watched you grow up since you were little, and there’s Ah Zhuang, Er Zhuzi, San Pang, you guys have called uncle since you were kids… It’s one thing outside, but here we are all family, no need to be so restrained.”
…
After Gao Wen finished lecturing, Big Face Cat and the others didn’t speak further.
Lin Xian, however, extracted a few key pieces of information from Gao Wen’s words.
First of all.
The father of Big Face Cat, who existed only in legends, had actually beco colleagues with Emperor Gao Wen, working together on the Ti Shuttle Machine.
The combination of these two super-genius dream team had an incredibly high value, no wonder they could craft such a powerful device as the Ti Shuttle Machine in such a harsh and backward environnt.
But, legends can only live in legends after all, the prematurely departed Cat Dad never got to give Lin Xian the chance to worship him.
However, it wasn’t hard to hear from Gao Wen’s tone that he had great respect and admiration for Big Face Cat’s father.
Unbelievable, a man who is so fondly rembered and regretted by Emperor Gao Wen… How incredibly intelligent must his mind have been!
All this ti, in Lin Xian’s mind, Emperor Gao Wen’s talent and intelligence have always been top-tier.
Now looking back, it appears that the legendary Cat Dad might have even surpassed Emperor Gao Wen.
Indeed, so lay hidden in forests, others lay hidden amidst the markets.
A formidable force capable of unraveling the cosmic constants with just a pen and a stack of draft paper, naturally couldn’t be just anybody.
But now it’s all too late.
Fortunately, Cat Dad had given enough help to Emperor Gao Wen before his death, allowing him to successfully develop the Ti Shuttle Machine and give humanity hope for changing the future.
Secondly.
The matter of the title “The Godfather.”
It’s clear that Gao Wen doesn’t like this title, even seems to reject it as it severely contradicts his identity and temperant.
But for the stability of the City of Sin, he accepted the command in an ergency situation.
Just as he said—
[“The City of Sin must have a Godfather.”]
Without a head, chaos is inevitable.
Especially in this volatile city where there are so few rules and restrictions to begin with, if there wasn’t a Godfather leading with virtue, it’s hard to imagine how chaotic it would beco.
Initially, the plan was to have Big Face Cat’s father beco The Godfather.
Although Lin Xian had never t Cat Dad, based on what he knew from the previous dreams, he felt Cat Dad would certainly be up to the job.
In The Fifth Dreamland, Cat Dad, as the first-generation leader of Lian Village, not only managed the village well but also proposed reasonable scientific developnt plans, showing both wisdom and strength.
In The Seventh Dreamland, Cat Dad was trusting and impartial, without favoring Big Face Cat as the village prince. After his death, Cat Dad directly handed over the leadership to an outsider, Number 17, the Blue-Eyed Girl, demonstrating an unconventional talent recruitnt strategy, indicating that Cat Dad was not only insightful but also thought on a larger scale.
Such a person was definitely fit to be The Godfather in the City of Sin.
Looking at Gao Wen, in contrast.
He obviously is a technical talent, not a managent talent.
No wonder people in the City of Sin, aside from those in gangs, knew almost nothing about The Godfather… It must be that Gao Wen really isn’t good at dealing with these things, so he has to maintain a mysterious image and rarely makes public appearances.
But to be fair.
Although Emperor Gao Wen may not compare to Cat Dad in certain aspects, he is undoubtedly a polymath.
At least in terms of results.
In the City of Sin with so many rule-breakers and exiled criminals, the order has not yet been disrupted, and all the gangs still follow Gao Wen’s commands, indicating that he does have so capabilities.
