Chapter 445: Chapter 445: The President is Back!
Baiyu had no idea what Shangguan Tianyang was thinking.
However.
Chatting with these retired veterans was his job.
It was also the prerequisite for him to have a quiet environment for study and research.
Recently, under the guidance of Yi Xian.
His Mechanical Science and Magic Energy Discipline had both advanced rapidly, reaching a realm unattainable by ordinary scholars.
Of course.
He also received an expected yet surprising piece of news from Yi Xian.
It was that Mechanical Science and Magic Energy Discipline.
The knowledge of these two disciplines were derived from Ancient Mechanical Technique, making them relatively easy to understand and learn.
As for Ancient Mechanical Technique.
This was the technology and knowledge controlled by humans in Ancient Times.
Legendary Ship and Shelter were products under Ancient Mechanical Technique.
The scope of this discipline’s knowledge is vast, and not something that ordinary people can learn.
Moreover.
Many aspects of the knowledge are still at the verification and theorizing stage.
Perfecting such a vast discipline requires more than a little effort.
Until now, only a superficial understanding of Ancient Mechanical Technique has been researched by scholars, further advancement is possible only by obtaining corresponding knowledge records from ancient relics.
Of course.
The force that currently controls the most knowledge of Ancient Mechanical Technique is still the National Church—Mechanical God Church.
It attracts countless mechanics to go there.
The technological level on Canglan Star has been regressing, the more ancient the technology, the more advanced it is.
After experiencing too many wars and various environmental changes.
The leftover technology now is merely the rare gems of the Ancient Human Race.
Because according to the ancient books.
Ancient humans were once able to invade the Spirit Realm, colonize the Spirit Realm, being the chief among all races, even capable of far-reaching expeditions across the Star Sea.
The existence of Shelters also supports this viewpoint.
The space teleportation technology between Shelters alone is beyond what humans today can decipher.
There is also the Legendary Ship.
It seems to also possess space teleportation technology.
This proves that such technology was not uncommon in ancient times, and could be applied to various military facilities.
Scholars from various countries are dedicated to researching.
In the hope of unlocking these ancient knowledge treasures.
Once they can make progress in the study of these ancient mechanics.
Then Canglan Star might be able to escape its current plight, enter the Spirit Realm, and venture into the galaxy.
"The older the more advanced, this point is completely different from Earth.
Though the technology on Earth is almost the same as Canglan Star, having space teleportation technology is simply a pipe dream.
Even if there was a ready-made teleportation device for them to research.
The researchers on Canglan Star could not decipher it, otherwise, there wouldn’t have been no progress for so many years.
So most people choose to practice martial arts or become Extraordinary.
Rather than pursuing to become scholars.
After all, compared to the infinitely distant technological breakthrough, Martial Artists, Extraordinary, it’s solid power."
Extraordinary and Martial Artist are powers returned to oneself.
While the power of technology would allow Canglan Star to progress.
People.
Are self-centered, indeed.
Baiyu was no exception.
"What are you thinking?"
On the street outside the gate of the Veterans Mutual Aid Association.
Qiong Xue saw Baiyu closing the door and still pondering for a long time without moving, could not help but curiously ask.
It was after-work time now.
Qiong Xue knew Baiyu very well.
After work, he certainly wouldn’t think about work matters.
Such a dazed state standing at the gate of the Veterans Mutual Aid Association was really quite rare.
This.
He didn’t seem like someone who wallows in sentiment.
Qiong Xue was puzzled.
Baiyu snapped back to reality and said, "Thinking about a few things. What realm has your cultivation reached now?"
"Tier Five, if necessary, can burst out Tier Four combat power."
Qiong Xue replied.
She was arranged by the Qiong Family to assist and guard Baiyu.
Since the other party asked, she said it without hesitation.
After all.
In college, her job was to ensure Baiyu’s safety, and the importance of the other party to the Qiong Family was self-evident.
She was already accustomed to Baiyu’s presence.
Being a bodyguard while being able to sleep every day, without family matters bothering her, where could she find such a good job?
Moreover.
Baiyu was pleasing to the eyes as well.
Though Qiong Xue slept every day, she was still a girl in her youth, just a year or two older than Baiyu.
Facing the opposite sex.
She naturally developed different feelings.
Anyway, if she didn’t follow Baiyu, unless she cultivated to the level of Ancestors Qiong Yue or Qiong Jiu, she’d end up as a pawn in arranged marriages.
Rather than being a sacrifice to family politics.
Better to stay in front of Baiyu.
So even though she spends twenty of her twenty-four hours each day snoozing, her security work has always been done very tightly.
"Burst out Tier Four combat power?"
Baiyu was a bit surprised.
He seemed to never have seen Qiong Xue cultivating.
All day besides eating, it was sleeping, and if not necessary, she probably wouldn’t even bother to eat.
However.
This terrifying cultivation advancement, what’s going on?
Becoming an Elite Level Martial Artist requires consuming considerable amounts of Blood Qi replenishing ingredients daily.
However.
He never saw Qiong Xue eat like other Martial Artists, every day it was ordinary food.
This guy.
Could it be secretly having special meals?
Baiyu speculated with mischievous curiosity.
After chatting for a bit, the two headed back to the apartment.
Having grasped the forthcoming knowledge advancement in Mechanical Science and Magic Energy through the system, Baiyu began scheming about Ancient Mechanical Technique.
The place researching Ancient Mechanical Technique the most.
Is the Mechanical God Church.
By coincidence.
He had received an invitation letter from the Mechanical God Church some time ago.
Yet Baiyu didn’t want to just go.
Based on information from Yi Xian and the Third Prince, he knew the Mechanical God Church sends out masses of invitation letters yearly, but few actually enter the church.
The value of the letter was not significant.
Baiyu’s paper was only noticed by the Mechanical God Church because it was unique, otherwise it wouldn’t have drawn attention.
Learning Ancient Mechanical Technique, acquiring those core mechanical knowledge.
Just like that, it’s entirely impossible.
He must think of another method.
Or see if the Third Prince has any leads.
However, the other is currently in Kyoto, seems troubled, and also can’t spare attention for Baiyu’s situation.
Just as he was thinking of this.
At the end of the blockade street where the Veterans Mutual Aid Association is located, the long unseen Jie Ding hurriedly ran over.
After bringing Baiyu to the Veterans Mutual Aid Association, Jie Ding, as the Logistics Department Minister, had been slacking off.
Basically, he didn’t show up for work.
After all, the Logistics Department had nothing much, if something work-related was required, Baiyu would call, and Jie Ding would arrange for it to be delivered.
But now.
The fact that he hurried over indicated an urgent matter.
Unsuspectingly.
Upon arrival, he urgently said, "Baiyu, something’s happened... The Minister and the Chairman returned severely injured from the Spirit Realm..."
