After Cen Jun finished speaking about compensation, he grunted coldly, walked out of the office and slammed the door behind him.

Xie Sen’s mouth turned down. If he judged Cen Jun’s reaction right, he knew that it was impossible to get the necklace through peaceful means. When he heard Adam’s words, he felt happy and asked, “What’s the solution?”

Adam said proudly, “Cen Jun has water energy, so Maine can’t beat him. But if I separate some of the energy, put it on a carrier and Maine wears it, can’t we beat him?”

It sounded reasonable, but Xie Sen eeked, “Your energies can be separated?”

“Sure. I can control them, so I can release or absorb them.”

Xie Sen was a little uneasy when he thought about the effects of the energy.

Ma Qun’s expression wasn’t very good. “Vice President Cen is getting more and more grumpy. He used to just ignore people, but now he’s actually hurting females. It’s too much!”

When Xie Sen heard this, he was even more uneasy. It seemed that the energy had the same effect on people as the contract beasts. It made one’s emotions more volatile, and had an effect on the spirit as well.

Adam was puzzled, “A’Sen, why don’t you say something? Don’t you think my solution is great?”

Xie Sen was at a loss. “It’s great, but I’m worried about Maine being affected by the energy, and the damage it will do to his spirit.”

“It’s okay,” Adam was confident. “The energy is incomplete and will have very little effect. Cen Jun has had the energy for a short time, and look, he’s still normal. If he realized something was wrong and had stayed away from the energy, he would be in better shape than he is now.”

Adam advised, “I will only separate one fifth of the red energy out. Just get the necklace as soon as possible. It will be maybe less than half a day. For such a short time, there’s no problem.”

Xie Sen hesitated, “I’ll discuss it with Maine later.”

Ma Qun finished venting his dissatisfaction with Cen Jun, and looked at Xie Sen, “A’Sen, you came to see me today. What’s the matter?”

Xie Sen came to the Institute just to find the water energy, so when he heard Ma Qun ask this, he froze for a moment and then smiled. “I wanted to ask if I could attend the meeting?”

Whatever the method, he had to see Cen Jun. Today was the 14th. The exchange would last five days, from the 15th to the 19th, and on the 20th the Moon City researchers would leave, so he had to find an opportunity within those days.

Ma Qun hesitated. “The Sun and Moon City Research Institutes have asked for you to attend, but we refused considering your health for fear of accidents. You want to participate?”

Xie Sen nodded, “The conference attendees are all top researchers of Brandt Star plants. There’s no plant student who doesn’t aspire to attend.”

Maine looked at Xie Sen with doubt in his eyes. He didn’t know whether other plant students wanted to attend, but Xie Sen definitely didn’t. He had more types of plants than the whole of Brandt Star. Xie Sen saw that Maine was looking at him. Having been caught telling lies on the spot, he was a little embarrassed, but still maintained a sincere expression as he looked at Ma Qun.

When he saw Ma Qun hesitate, Xie Sen immediately said, “There’s no need to specially announce my presence. I can just disguise myself as a recorder in the back. Maine will accompany me, so nothing will happen.”

Ma Qun saw how positive he was and laughed. “Okay. If you want to attend, I’ll arrange a corner seat for you. The meeting may last a long time, so if you don’t feel well, you can leave at any time.”
