Chapter 8

Not to mention whether the other party needs to go through role-playing after obtaining Uchiha Sasuke's character template, or make their own personality fit Uchiha Sasuke's to obtain more power, even if the other party's template is like Ye Xuan's Wangquan Baye, which is obtained directly after fusion.

As long as they haven't stepped into the Six Paths Realm and opened the Six-Tomoe Rinnegan, it's not worth fearing.

Even if Ye Xuan now isn't their opponent, the gap between them isn't necessarily that big; and if he can't, isn't there still Master Zhong?

For the Xia people who pay attention to keeping a hand in everything, Master Zhong can now show "Heavenly Motion, Myriad Manifestations" in front of people. If you say his Zhong Li template compatibility hasn't exceeded 60% behind his back, Ye Xuan definitely wouldn't believe it.

Anyway, fighting a Uchiha Sasuke who hasn't stepped into the Six Paths Realm is definitely no problem.

And compared to Uchiha Sasuke's character template, which is not known if anyone has really obtained, it is clear that Tony, the Iron Man actor who has confirmed to have obtained the Mark 3 armor in the American film industry, is more worthy of their attention.

Don't look at the fact that Mark 3 is only the third armor created by Tony Stark; it contains quite a lot of advanced technology.

Not to mention materials, propulsion systems, and weapons—after all, it's only number three—but the artificial intelligence Jarvis and the Arc Reactor as the energy core must be taken seriously.

How strong is Jarvis?

Cracking S. H. I. E. L. D.'s level 7 encryption in milliseconds, infiltrating Hammer Industries' system, and even briefly taking over S. H. I. E. L. D.'s helicarrier.

This intrusion ability is a dimensionality reduction strike in the current era. How many countries in the world can block Jarvis's intrusion?

Even if the Jarvis in the Mark 3 armor might only be a sub-program for auxiliary flight and combat AI, it is of great help to the development of AI in the United States.

The Arc Reactor goes without saying. Cold fusion technology is considered to violate existing physical laws in the mainstream academic world.

Real-world thermal fusion still requires decades of research and relies on high-temperature plasma confinement, let alone cold fusion. The gap between the two is not something that can be explained in a few words.

If cold fusion technology is broken through, it will not only provide humans with near-infinite energy but also reshape the technology, economy, environment, and even civilization form of human society from the foundation.

Infinite clean energy will completely replace fossil fuels, destroying traditional energy industries such as oil and coal. High-energy-consuming industries will no longer be limited by energy costs, production efficiency will grow exponentially, and energy wars will also disappear.

Various new industries will rise, and even giant projects originally in human imagination, such as space elevators and undersea cities, have the possibility of realization.

The core difficulty of energy supply for establishing self-sustaining ecosystems on the moon and Mars will also be solved.

In short, if cold fusion technology becomes a reality, its role can be compared to the sum of the use of fire, the Industrial Revolution, and the Information Revolution.

The national power of the United States will also be greatly improved to an unprecedented level because it has mastered cold fusion technology.

Of course, the premise is that they can master this technology, but Ye Xuan doesn't hold much hope for this.

Optimistically, if the United States concentrates the world's top scientific research forces and assumes that the cold fusion theory is feasible, it will take at least 30 years to break through the basic physical problems, and then another 20 years to achieve engineering; if it is proven to be unfeasible, then the technology will stagnate for a long time, at most imitating some functions through reverse engineering.

Wanting to use the energy density of the reactor to develop laser weapons or electromagnetic guns requires solving the problems of energy transmission and heat dissipation; wanting to use it as a power source for deep space probes requires overcoming the limitations of miniaturization and durability.

Using the reactor as a bargaining chip to unite countries for joint research is the result that Ye Xuan thinks is most likely.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan shook his head.

It's too early to think about these things now. Whether they can "take" the Mark 3 from Tony is still an unknown; and these problems should be thought about by the people above, and have nothing to do with him, a student.

"What's the use of the Arc Reactor?"

"Isn't that just for providing energy?"

While Ye Xuan was thinking, Zhang Yu and Chen Hao looked at each other, and then asked suspiciously.

What's the use of that Arc Reactor? Isn't the important thing the Mark 3 armor?

This is Iron Man's armor, eh.

"???"

"No, you guys..."

Ye Xuan's expression was a bit confused. He subconsciously thought Chen Hao and Zhang Yu were joking, but after looking at their serious expressions, he slapped his forehead.

He forgot that they were still high school students, and they were high school students with poor grades. How could they know the meaning represented by the Arc Reactor?

For them, this thing is just a furnace that provides energy. What's the importance of it?

"Forget it, forget it, just treat it as a furnace."

"Anyway, it doesn't have much to do with us."

Ye Xuan waved his hand speechlessly.

Zhang Yu still wanted to say something, but just then, the ground suddenly felt a slight tremor. Although it was very small, it was very clear.

"Earthquake?"

Someone said incredulously, with a bit of excitement in his tone.

Because Hangzhou is in the plains and the terrain is flat, they have never experienced an earthquake since they were born. Encountering it suddenly, it is inevitable that there will be some accidents, but they have practiced it usually, so everyone is not very nervous.

"Everyone, line up immediately and go to the playground in class order!"

Director Li walked in at some point and shouted at them. His voice was loud, and there was no urgency in his tone.

It was as if he had been prepared for a long time.

Ye Xuan noticed this and was a bit confused, but didn't think too much about it.

After all, although there was an earthquake, this tremor was probably only at the level of a magnitude 3 earthquake, not even magnitude 4. Their teaching building was built according to the standard of resisting magnitude 8 earthquakes, so this tremor wouldn't have any impact even if they stayed in the classroom.

It was normal for Director Li not to have any worries.

"Yes, teacher!"

They responded at the first time, then quickly lined up in two teams as they had practiced in the past, and walked out of the classroom in an orderly manner.

The whole building was evacuated to the playground within ten minutes. The students stood on the open ground, some still excitedly discussing the tremor just now, and some looked a bit nervous.

Ye Xuan stood in the team, his brows slightly frowned. He didn't know why, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Just then, as if sensing something, his gaze instantly looked at the slightly raised ground at the edge of the playground not far away; immediately after, several figures drilled out from the ground, and in the flying dust, their outlines gradually became clear.

They were huge creatures, looking like mice, but their fur was light cyan, reflecting a strange luster in the sun; their eyes were round, their noses twitched slightly, and their ears were held high, looking surprisingly cute?
