Chapter 76: Protecting One's Own!

The old man's mention of an Intelligent Robot left Du Kaao stunned.

Wait, wait!

An Intelligent Robot?!

Du Kaao couldn't help but glance at Ye Cang.

When did an Intelligent Robot appear? The key was that he hadn't received a single piece of information about it; one had to know that on Earth, nothing could be hidden from his Deno III.

Although he couldn't figure out what was going on, Du Kaao didn't take it to heart.

Instead, he continued, "Chief Engineer Ye is truly very talented. I never expected that in such a short time, you would actually have an Intelligent Robot. You are truly worthy of being called a hero among the youth!"

"However!"

At this point, Du Kaao's tone shifted.

"If Tianhe City was destroyed by Chief Engineer Ye, then it is only right and proper for Chief Engineer Ye to rebuild it!"

"These two matters simply cannot cancel each other out."

"Even if we could all turn a blind eye, the people of Huaxia would never agree to it!"

Hearing this, the old man and Ye Cang narrowed their eyes in unison.

Du Kaao had learned to be clever; he was no longer hitting them head-on, but had started using that old tactic.

However, even with Du Kaao putting it this way, the old man still didn't have much of a reaction, remaining in his kind and smiling state.

"What you say is indeed reasonable, Little Du." The old man nodded.

"Looking at it this way, the problem is indeed quite significant. So tell me, in your opinion, what should be done?"

"Help this old man of mine make a decision!"

Du Kaao naturally heard the trap in the old man's words and didn't fall for it.

"Making the decision is not for me; at most, I can offer you a small suggestion," Du Kaao said.

"Chief Engineer Ye is still too young right now; he cannot shoulder the status of Chief Engineer. My suggestion is to find a position to temper his temperament and let Chief Engineer Ye be tempered for two years."

"Once his temperament is tempered enough, it won't be too late for him to be Chief Engineer then. After all, he is only 23 years old; his road ahead is still long!"

"What do you think?"

After finishing, Du Kaao stopped speaking and looked at the old man, waiting for the old man to make the decision.

As for the others in the Super Soldier Company, they were all looking nervous at this moment.

This... they seemed to have been dragged into something incredible.

Du Qiangwei also sensed that something was wrong, but she didn't say anything more.

Compared to the others, Leina's attitude was completely different; she was in a state of watching the show.

She wanted to see how Ye Cang would resolve such a crisis. In any case, she anticipated there were only two ways to handle this situation.

The first was the old rule: close the door and release Pan Zhen!

The second: I am a Main God, if you keep going against me, I will blow you up with a Nuclear Fusion.

Besides these, there was also a third way.

That is... to play! the! ostrich!

After hearing Du Kaao's words, the old man didn't give an answer, but turned his head to look at Ye Cang.

"Little Cang, this matter is not small. I want to hear your opinion!"

Ye Cang said without even thinking: "I listen to you. Whatever you say, that is what I will do!"

The old man nodded.

"Mm, good!"

"Since that is the case, then I will adopt Little Du's suggestion."

At this point, the old man stood up.

"You indeed cannot be the Chief Engineer of the Nantianmen Project anymore! Little Cang!"

Once these words were spoken, a flash of joy crossed Du Kaao's eyes.

But the joy was fleeting and quickly disappeared.

Great, Ye Cang was finally no longer the Chief Engineer of the Nantianmen Project.

This way, he was the only one in charge again!

Absolutely no one could replace him! He was unique and the most important!

Even a genius like Ye Cang could not replace him!

But before Du Kaao could think much more, the old man's next words made Du Kaao feel terrible.

"From now on, Ye Cang, you are no longer the Chief Engineer of the Nantianmen Project!"

"You are now the Chief Engineer of Huaxia! You can manage all projects, even top-secret plans! And all resources are at your disposal!"

"Did you hear that! Ye Cang!"

"I heard it!" A smile from the heart appeared on Ye Cang's face. Even though Du Kaao had exhausted all his efforts, so what?

No matter what, one's own people would always favor their own.

"Please rest assured, I, Ye Cang, will absolutely not let you down!"

The old man nodded with satisfaction, a gratified smile appearing on his face.

And Du Kaao was left stunned by this reversal.

What was going on? Why didn't he just not dismiss Ye Cang, but actually promote him!

Could it be that all the things he said before were in vain!

"Chief, how could you..." Du Kaao wanted to say, you are wrong.

But before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the old man.

"Du Kaao, I don't want to say anything more. Ye Cang did destroy Tianhe City, but can his contributions be ignored just because of this?"

"He was the first to discover the Taotie attack, commanded the entire battle all by himself, captured a Taotie Main Battleship for Huaxia, and in the end, personally slew a god from Lieyang!"

"Can these merits he has established be erased by a few words from you calling him an executioner?!"

"If you ask me, Ye Cang was right to destroy that city! Strike one punch to avoid a hundred more! Destroying one city let the Taotie see Huaxia's strength, so they wouldn't dare to act rashly."

"If it happened all over again, I would still support Ye Cang doing it! I even feel that letting him be the Huaxia Chief Engineer is doing him a disservice!" After saying so much in one breath, the old man felt a bit thirsty and picked up his water cup to take a sip.

Then he said again: "Du Kaao, I won't say anything redundant; be self-aware."

This sentence from the old man made Du Kaao's heart sink to the bottom; must he hand over control of the Xiongbing Company today?

No, he cannot hand it over; if he hands it over, it would truly be the end!

And so, Du Kaao began his final struggle.

"You are right, I truly should not gloss over my mistakes. Please rest assured, I guarantee I will change in the future; there will absolutely not be a next time."

"Besides, I have always been the one leading the Xiongbing Company. If it were changed to Ye Cang, they would certainly not be very accustomed to it, so please give me one more chance!"

The old man let out a cold snort.

"Little Du, if you had been like this earlier, there wouldn't have been any of the subsequent events!"

"Some things cannot be blamed entirely on you. Forget it, I will give you one chance!"

Du Kaao, who had originally intended to give up, could not believe it when he heard the old man say he would give him a chance.

This, has he really let him off?

Looking at Du Kaao, the old man said again: "Although I am letting you off, the punishment cannot be less; I must make you learn your lesson."

"From now on, add tactical literacy courses for the Xiongbing Company, and there must be end-of-month exams. You arrange the specifics yourself!"

"Also, the country is currently planning to develop Exoskeleton Armor to deal with the alien invasion, but the Exoskeleton Armor is too bulky and not easy to carry."

"Therefore, I will take that Micro-wormhole Transportation Technology and that whatever calculation method; you have no objections, right?"
