When Xu Lingjun arrived, Zhang Zhiheng had already eagerly asked Liu Zhiyuan to take him to see the object of this visit.
It wasn’t like he hadn’t seen it before, but previously he had only observed the power of this giant robot through satellite monitoring... How could that compare to now, when he could personally touch the structure of this battle armor?
"Is this the Strong Assault?"
Zhang Zhiheng’s eyes shone with amazent, feeling as if he had returned to the day years ago when he first laid eyes on his wife at ho.
His eyes were filled with fascination, gazing at that magnificent war machine.
He only felt that these lines, this battle armor, were like a peerless beauty.
As a professional, Zhang Zhiheng felt that there was not a single part of this battle armor robot before him that wasn’t breathtaking, making him reluctant to let go.
His fascinated gaze never left the Strong Assault after he saw it.
He even ignored Liu Zhiyuan’s words of praise.
And just as Xu Lingjun arrived, he couldn’t wait to ask Xu Lingjun, "Earlier I heard from classmate Wang Qingya that this thing was destroyed, wasn’t it? How did it appear again?"
He didn’t care about how it was destroyed, he only cared about how it had co to be... Knowing that the Zhanzheng Academy had been researching this project for over a year...
But just by looking at its appearance, it was clear that compared to this robot, what they had researched, while not a joke, was undoubtedly a few generations behind.
"Oh, Pavilion Master Zhang, you an this."
Xu Lingjun, unperturbed, said the answer he had prepared long ago, with a sigh, "Yes, during the chaos in Qingzhou City last ti, after this thing was destroyed, I’ve secretly lanted in my heart. This was the treasure built jointly by Sister Yaya and , and it was gone just like that. I truly felt so regret."
He continued earnestly, "So in the past year or so, I’ve been practicing Martial Skill during the day and diligently studying the knowledge from the Zhanzheng Academy at night. The books Sister Yaya used to use were sent to , and after more than a year of hard study, I’ve finally learned enough to repair this robot, which seems quite reasonable, doesn’t it?"
Zhang Zhiheng: "..........."
He blinked, thinking to himself, are you kidding ?
He really wanted to say this to the kid, but besides this explanation, there seed to be no other reason to explain the sudden reappearance of the Strong Assault.
Especially considering this kid’s father-in-law is so wealthy. I’ve heard from classmate Wang Qingya that her father dotes on this son-in-law so much that at one point she felt like she was just a daughter-in-law, and an unfavored one at that.
Given his financial situation, the possibility of helping him build this thing was very high.
Especially since that Wang Tiancheng seed to have specially co to the Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion not so long ago.
"Oh... So that’s how it is."
Zhang Zhiheng nodded, accepting this explanation.
anwhile, Xu Lingjun remained at ease, disregarding Sister Yaya’s frantic eye rolls beside him.
Joking aside, stuff like the Celestial Human Organization, such a clumsy excuse could only fool soone like Sister Yaya, who willingly lets herself be deceived by him.
Using that to fool Zhang Zhiheng was really treating people like idiots.
"Old Liu, I have so professional topics I’d like to discuss with Xu Lingjun, so..."
"I understand, give you so privacy, right? Being protective of your precious research, I can see through you tech people, each one a bit stingy."
Liu Zhiyuan tactfully turned around and left, giving the space to the three of them.
In his heart, he felt sowhat disdainful, ha ha, getting to leave... as if letting stay here ans I could understand. Old Zhang really overestimates Liu Zhiyuan.
In fact, Zhang Zhiheng asked Liu Zhiyuan to leave, not because of being protective but because he didn’t want his hard-earned elevated image in Liu Zhiyuan’s mind to collapse just like that.
After Liu Zhiyuan left, he jumped up in anger, shouting, "Kid, answer honestly, did you really repair the cha after the fact?"
Xu Lingjun looked utterly serious, saying, "Of course, is there any other explanation? You might want to take a look outside, Father Wang... uh... Sister Yaya’s father ca to see last ti and directly bought an entire street just to support my research endeavors. He knows I’ve been exploring Martial Tao without giving up technological research. He’s very supportive and believes one needs to learn as long as they live."
Wang Qingya: "..........."
The young girl couldn’t help but mutter in her heart, thinking, so if it weren’t for the age difference, I would really think we were switched at birth.
"Alright, your explanation is sowhat reasonable."
Zhang Zhiheng asked, "And what about the Transformation Capsule? Of course, I’m not interrogating you, it’s just as a researcher, I’m genuinely curious... How did you manage it?"
"Very simply."
Xu Lingjun explained, "The principle of the Transformation Capsule is to change the atomic arrangent of objects, compressing the space between the atoms, so large objects can beco capsule-sized..."
Zhang Zhiheng said blankly, "It sounds reasonable, but why do I feel like it’s still nonsense, even if the distance between atoms is compressed, the mass hasn’t changed, right?"
"Ah... This brings in the concept of anti-gravity..."
"How about this, you won’t mind if I borrow it for research later on, will you?"
Zhang Zhiheng felt that what Xu Lingjun said seed logical, but it also seed like one of those plausible technological rationalizations. As a professional, it sounded like nonsense...
But the thing had already appeared.
He could only try his best to ignore the discomfort of feeling bullshitted and strive to find excuses that fit his reasons.
Along the way, he asked about his own perplexities.
"How did you research such an advanced thing anyway?"
He stopped wanting to ask about the lab or anything else; he just couldn’t understand how such knowledge, which clearly nearly reached the pinnacle of technology, ended up in Xu Lingjun’s hands.
Xu Lingjun glanced at Wang Qingya.
Then he saw the young girl shake her head slightly, signaling with her eyes not to pin this one on her... The person in front of us is my ntor’s ntor, you won’t be able to bluff your way past this one.
Xu Lingjun smiled and said, "I’ve ntioned this before, right? Actually, during my ti at the Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, I had been seriously studying the books from the Zhanzheng College all along. Moreover, when I visited the Imperial Capital last ti, I had the good fortune to stay at the Zhanzheng College and receive personal day and night teachings from Sister Yaya, so it’s only natural that after such accumulated depth, inspiration would flow like a fountain every night, isn’t it natural to co up with the Transformation Capsule?"
Zhang Zhiheng: "..........."
"Oh... So that’s how it is."
He laughed awkwardly twice, only able to desperately tell himself that geniuses can’t be asured by common sense, mmhmm, my inability to understand is entirely because I’m not a genius, just my failure to comprehend.
All absurdity, all ridiculousness, is because I don’t understand. When you know how, it’s not hard; when it’s hard, you don’t know. I understand, I understand.
Zhang Zhiheng thought to himself, I truly don’t understand.
As ordinary as I am, I can’t fathom the world of geniuses.
