Chapter 100: Approaching Absolute Zero

"If I say it's a small problem, it's a small problem; how could it possibly be a big problem! We are all in scientific research, so you know best—we researchers never lie!"

As he spoke, the researcher forced two tears out of his eyes.

This made Ye Cang feel a bit guilty.

It was true; he was right. They were all in scientific research, so there was no need to lie!

It seemed he had used his own petty mind to measure the heart of a gentleman.

"It is my fault," Ye Cang said sincerely. "Sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you."

"How about this, you tell me about the research results first, and we'll talk about that small problem at the end."

Hearing Ye Cang say this, the researcher nodded vigorously and began walking back toward the interior of the base.

As he walked, he said, "Chief Engineer Ye, I think joining your Nantianmen Project was the most correct decision."

"Not only can we come into contact with epoch-making technology, but I never expected we would have the chance to become Super Humans."

"Ever since becoming Super Humans, our rest time has been drastically reduced, and our brain usage has increased by a full 5 percent."

"It has reached 11 percent! You know, Einstein was only at 13 percent."

"This has made our scientific research go smoothly!"

(This part is still me making things up, don't take it too seriously; of course, if you really have opinions or questions, feel free to bring them up.)

Yes, in order to let the research staff conduct research better, after the great battle with Morgana, Ye Cang had them use the Special Protein, allowing them all to become first-generation Super Soldiers.

(Patch notes, those who know, know.)

After listening to the researcher, Ye Cang discovered a small problem in his words.

"Actually, your phrasing is slightly incorrect; it shouldn't be called Super Human, the correct term should be first-generation Super Soldier," Ye Cang said.

"Why?" The researcher was a bit puzzled. "I think Super Human is quite fitting."

"Our physical fitness and our brains have both surpassed ordinary people, so calling us Super Humans is most appropriate."

Looking at the puzzled researcher, Ye Cang explained: "First, calling it Super Human is unlucky; the last group of people called Super Humans almost all died, and they died very miserably."

"Second, humans are humans; how can there be such a thing as a Super Human? If they are called Super Humans, then where does that leave humanity?"

"Besides, first-generation Super Soldiers will be promoted sooner or later."

In an instant, the researcher understood what Ye Cang meant.

"So that's it, Chief Engineer Ye, I understand. You are right; it should indeed be called a first-generation Super Soldier."

After finishing, the researcher didn't say anything more, but focused on leading the way for Ye Cang.

In the blink of an eye, the two arrived at the Underground Base's warehouse.

As soon as they entered the warehouse, the researcher said impatiently, "Chief Engineer Ye, please look!"

"These are all the research results from the past six months!"

As he spoke, he directed his gaze.

They saw that the incredibly huge warehouse was actually filled with Luan Birds!

Looking at these Luan Birds, Ye Cang was a bit confused.

"Hm? Why are there so many Luan Birds?"

After hearing this, the researcher introduced them with a proud face.

"Chief Engineer Ye, this Luan Bird is not that Luan Bird!"

"Although they are all Luan Birds, their performance is not exactly the same!"

"You look at this one first!"

As the researcher spoke, he walked to the Luan Bird closest to them.

"Look, this Luan Bird."

"This Luan Bird is equipped with the Power System from the Taotie Main Battleship; its propulsion is especially sufficient."

After finishing, he walked to the next Luan Bird.

"And this one, it is equipped with the Light Energy Barrier from the Taotie Main Battleship. Speaking of this Light Energy Barrier, I must say it really is black technology!"

"It's not scientific at all, but fortunately, with Earth's technology, it isn't difficult to produce an identical Light Energy Barrier, so we can pat our chests and say that we have also mastered the Light Energy Barrier!"

Hearing this, Ye Cang finally understood why there were so many Luan Birds here.

It turned out they had dismantled all the technology from the Taotie Main Battleship and then put it into practical application bit by bit.

When the application was successful, the technology was considered to be mastered in a roundabout way.

Hmm~ ancient wisdom.

Since that was the case, then without any surprises, there must be a Taotie Main Battleship of the same model at the end of the warehouse!

Thinking of this, Ye Cang spoke directly: "So, did you guys build a warship with functions exactly the same as the original main battleship?"

As soon as these words were out, the researcher nodded immediately.

"Hahaha, I knew you would guess it, Chief Engineer Ye."

"Come, come, come, I'll take you to see it!"

After finishing, the researcher took the lead and walked in front.

Soon, the two arrived at the end of the warehouse.

They saw a huge warship parked at the end of the warehouse, only the appearance of this warship was completely different from the Taotie Main Battleship.

The Taotie Main Battleship as a whole was closer to a cylinder.

While this warship now was closer to the appearance of an aerospace fighter.

It looked even more imposing.

It was much better looking than the Taotie Main Battleship, who knows by how much.

At the same time, the researcher also said: "Chief Engineer Ye, look."

"This is the warship we built by imitating the Taotie Main Battleship; the internal structure is exactly the same, only the exterior shape is different."

"It's mainly because the Taotie Main Battleship's exterior is too ugly, so we changed it."

Ye Cang nodded.

"I also approve of changing the design, but changing the design means the placement of many devices needs to be adjusted."

"Once the placement is changed, are you sure this warship can operate normally?"

"It can!" the researcher said decisively. "Except for not having a test flight, everything else has been tested; there are no problems and it is quite successful."

"I can pat my chest and guarantee that this warship can completely roam outer space."

Looking at the researcher's excited appearance, Ye Cang did not discuss the warship issue with him further.

Instead, he steered the topic toward that small problem.

"Now that the results have all been seen, shouldn't you take me to see that small problem?"

Ye Cang said.

Upon hearing this, the researcher immediately nodded, led Ye Cang away from the warehouse at high speed, and in the blink of an eye, the two arrived in an incomparably cold laboratory.

"Why is this laboratory so cold?" Standing inside the laboratory, Ye Cang asked with some confusion.

"The temperature is at least minus 50 degrees or more; what are you trying to do?"

But the researcher did not speak, instead leading Ye Cang to continue walking toward the interior of the laboratory.

They arrived in front of a metal wall, with a piece of glass embedded in the center of the metal wall; through the glass, one could clearly see that behind the glass was a small room.

Only then did the researcher say: "Chief Engineer Ye, look, this is the reason why the temperature in this laboratory is so low."

"It is all to prevent that thing from changing, and the temperature in the room behind the glass has reached over minus 200 degrees."

"Approaching absolute zero."
