[2] Genius Mechanic

Chapter 288

Old House Laboratory

When KID came out of the Dawn Research Institute, Shen Xingtang received a call from Director Liu, who sounded urgent, as if the sky was falling, sounding extremely flustered. Shen Xingtang calmly took the call and, looking at the KID mecha soldiers nearby, solemnly instructed, "You guys go back to the hotel first, I have something to attend to here."

"What? What's going on?" Ji Qingfeng asked. "Didn't we say we were going to have a big dinner tonight?"

Shen Xingtang replied, "Something more important than 60 million."

As soon as they heard "60 million," Ji Qingfeng and the others showed great respect and didn't dare to delay Shen Xingtang's money-making time.

Seeing Shen Xingtang finish his instructions, Ying Chenlin hurriedly turned and re-entered the research institute, slightly puzzled as he paid more attention for a while.

The waiting room in the institute was relatively quiet, without the rush of researchers inside. As Ying Chenlin had just walked all the way from the institute, he noticed many details. Some areas still had virtual screens and floating boards out, mostly for conducting pollution research... and there were a large number of researchers gathered, which wasn't hard to guess. They were probably here for the Blue Heart Crystal. With more research groups, the research progress seemed much more urgent than he had imagined.

Ying Chenlin had never heard of the Blue Heart Crystal in his past life. The new energy brought by its transformation ability had not appeared in the following years. Now, the trajectory of events was completely different from his previous life, and pollution research was not his deep concern anymore. Whether there would be a new energy revolution in the future was no longer his concern. What he needed to do was to adapt to future changes and live his life well in this lifetime.

Stellar Domain Tournament.

Ying Chenlin shifted his gaze away, looking down at the data in the light brain. They still had to prepare for the Stellar Domain Tournament.

At this time, the reserved hovercar from outside arrived.

With Shen Xingtang absent, Huo Yan took a few people to have a hearty meal. When they left the restaurant, each of them had a big belly. Huo Yan carefully checked the electronic receipt he had just sent to Jiang Simiao for reimbursement, only to receive numerous exclamation marks from Jiang Simiao.

When Ying Chenlin returned to the hotel, he found that You Su had gone out and wasn't there. After taking a shower, he stayed in the room to review the data.

A few days ago, while reviewing, Ying Chenlin was preparing for the exam, and Huo Yan recorded all the details of their discussion. Now he needed to go through the data and also contact Grandpa Gu to inquire about the progress of the weapons.

The time for the Stellar Domain Tournament hadn't been set yet. This tournament would be held after the end of the five-star regional tournaments, and the first star region's tournament would be the last to finish among the five-star regions. Including the maintenance period for the mechas, the Stellar Domain Tournament would be scheduled at least a month or two later. That would bring it close to winter, nearing the end of the year.

Ying Chenlin planned the time on the light brain again and again. If the Stellar Domain Tournament were held this year, he wanted to design and process weapons during this time. At the latest, the weapon design seminar would have to be concluded after the design was finalized. This way, Grandpa Gu and the others might be able to catch up with the production of the weapons.

After finishing the design, Ying Chenlin's time outside, the sky had already darkened.

Shen Xingtang hadn't returned yet, which was unusual, and You Su hadn't returned either.
