"Just the two of us? Isn't that the same as the space mutants? That's too few. Even if this project is successfully completed, what we create will just be toys that no one will use."
"There must be more than just you and me who use telekinesis in the world. However, telekinesis is different from martial arts and superpowers. Even if one has awakened telekinesis, one may not know it is telekinesis and just think it is a special superpower. One would not tell anyone about it. And telekinesis... unless one is as close as when we met, there is no way to sense it." A trace of regret appeared on Xue Yingsong's face.
Seeing Gu Ran fall silent, Xue Yingsong said, "Anyway, I haven't found any other telekinetic users in Canglong City. Even if we create one, it's probably only the two of us who can use it. If you still want to continue this project, I will definitely grant you funding, but I can only grant you the most basic funding according to your requirements. Of course, even if the research and development is successful, this technology will not be promoted to the outside world. It will only be sealed and wait for the right time to unseal it."
Gu Ran had a thoughtful look on his face but remained silent.
"Do you have any other ideas?" Xue Yingsong looked at Gu Ran, "If you have any, please tell me."
"I was just wondering... can we reduce the difficulty of operating the mecha? If we can reduce the difficulty, we don't have to limit the users to telekinetic users, or artificially create a large number of 'telekinetic users'?" At this point, Gu Ran raised his head and looked at Xue Yingsong with bright eyes. "Principal, my dear principal, you have mastered telekinesis for so long, you can't have no research on the awakening mechanism of telekinesis, right?"
"Ahem... Mecha, is that what you call that thing? It's quite appropriate. The original name is a bit long... Of course I have studied telekinesis, but my research is not in-depth because I lack samples." Xue Yingsong's eyes also became sharp as he looked at Gu Ran, with a strong implication in his expression.
"Well... didn't I say to postpone it for now and talk about it later?" Gu Ran was a little hesitant to take up this topic. He was still a little resistant to turning himself into a "guinea pig".
"Anyway, if you have any research results, tell me as soon as possible, President. You don't want such interesting research to be put into the wastebasket, do you? This is not what a researcher should do."
"Okay." Xue Yingsong sighed with some regret and said, "I said before that in order to awaken the telekinesis, one must have neither the supernatural power core nor the power of martial arts. In other words, one must not have any spiritual power.
"This is one of the necessary conditions for awakening telekinesis. The will of the telekineticist must be very firm, or tenacious. Generally speaking, such people have very important beliefs, or want to stick to something, or want to protect something. In short, they must have these two. Then...
"I'll wait for my fate."
"Waiting for fate?" Gu Ran frowned slightly. He was now a little allergic to something like fate.
Xue Yingsong said: "That's right. Having these two conditions is only a necessary condition for awakening telekinesis, but it doesn't mean that you will be able to awaken telekinesis after having these two conditions. The awakening of telekinesis depends entirely on luck."
"Is that so?"
The conditions for a telekinetic user to awaken made Gu Ran a little confused.
Luck is a very illusory thing. This is not a card draw, and there is no guaranteed minimum.
He wanted to do scientific research and develop a mecha that almost every man would like, but it was too difficult to find a suitable driver for it.
"Although it depends a bit on luck, we can't ignore this aspect. What if we find a pattern? Then it will reduce the difficulty of operating the mecha."
Gu Ran couldn't help but ponder.
"It looks like you haven't given up yet." Xue Yingsong smiled and shook his head, "You are really tenacious. No wonder you have awakened your telekinesis."
"I'll give you three days to think about it. Take all this information back and have a good look at it. After you've thought it over carefully, tell me the answer. It doesn't matter whether you want to continue with this project or switch to another one."
... ...
Outside the light screen.
"Come to think of it, Gu Ran was still very fond of Starstone Technology at that time. However, after he became the president, he began to suppress Starstone Technology. Was it because he was afraid that others would invent weapons like artificial mechanical skeletons that could threaten his power?"
Some people couldn't help but sigh.
"You are mistaken? Gu Ran suppressed Star Stone Technology? He has always liked Star Stone Technology and supported many projects. For example, the energy shield that can isolate most ferocious beasts was developed with his support, right? Although this technology was mainly used for the construction of Meteorite City and to bless Meteorite City."
Someone immediately refuted it.
Just rebuttal did not convince the other party.
"I do remember that when Gu Ran was in power, he hated Star Stone Technology. He didn't even want to apply Star Stone Technology to any part of human civilization. He must have encountered something later, so he completely changed his mind and even hated Star Stone Technology." Another strong man showed affirmation.
Neither side could convince the other.
Others also started discussing it, and the result of the discussion surprised everyone.
Some of them had the impression that Gu Ran hated Star Stone Technology, while others had the impression that he liked Star Stone Technology very much.
Why are their impressions so opposite
The strong men present all looked at the women who had a close relationship with Gu Ran.
Gu Qingqing remained silent, Eudora snorted coldly and remained silent, Cheng Youmeng shook his head to indicate that he didn't know, and Xue Xiling frowned slightly, but did not speak.
Everything fell into silence.
... ...
Gu Ran was walking on the campus of Lanxin University with a lecture note in his hand.
He felt like he had been tricked. They only told him that the benefits at Lyceum University were good, but they didn't mention that new researchers would have teaching tasks in the first three years.
That’s right, now Gu Ran is going to give lectures to the freshmen of Lanxin University.
What’s even more frustrating is that he was notified of this matter shortly before the class, leaving him with very little time to prepare for the class.
"Are you Leng Ran? The first place in this interview?" Gu Ran, who was about to enter the classroom, looked towards him. A middle-aged man with a sloppy appearance, a beard, and who knew how long he hadn't shaved was walking towards him.
"What can I do for you?" Gu Ran saw that the other party did not seem to be trying to embarrass him on purpose and seemed to be just asking a question, so he did not speak too harshly.
"Oh, sorry. I've heard a lot of people talk about you, so I'm a little curious about you." The middle-aged man clasped his fists and said, "My name is Wu Wang. I'm very optimistic about your idea of a small mobile city. I hope we can have a chance to cooperate in the future."
After he finished speaking, Wu Wang yawned and said, "Ah, sorry, Teacher Leng Ran, I'm too sleepy. I have to go back and take a nap first."
Gu Ran asked curiously, "How long has it been since Teacher Wu Wang slept?"
Wu Wang was a little confused: "How long have you not slept? I don't know. If I want to sleep, I usually just lie down and sleep without keeping track of time."
Well, 007 is a classic, and capitalists are delighted.
"Go back to sleep." Seeing the sleepiness on Wu Wang's face and the dark circles under his eyes as if he had indulged in excessive sexual activities, Gu Ran patted his shoulder.
For Gu Ran, this was just a very ordinary meeting. The wave of emotion in his heart was "This guy is too hardworking."
Gu Ran teaches the Basics of Star Stone, which is a public course in which different parts are assigned to different teachers.
Generally speaking, the key and difficult parts are taught by experienced teachers, while the simple and unimportant parts are taught by new researchers. New researchers are arranged in this way, and the teaching content assigned to them will not be too difficult, which serves the purpose of training new people, but at the same time it will not be too simple, which will fail to serve the purpose of training new people.
As the bell rang, Gu Ran just walked into the classroom.
The classroom was already full and very crowded, even the aisles were filled with people - many of them were there to see what Gu Ran looked like.
Once the novelty wears off, they basically won’t come to the next class.
"Are you trying to get in class for free? I never thought that I would be so charming one day." Gu Ran couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart.
“I hope what I say will make their trip worthwhile.”
Gu Ran placed the lecture notes on the podium and looked up at the semicircular tiered classroom.
"I believe everyone already knows who I am, but in case some people don't know me, I will still briefly introduce myself. My name is Leng Ran, and I will be one of your teachers for the "Basics of Star Stone Studies" this semester."
134. Goodbye to the Dream 4k
These students of Lanxin University were indeed very curious about Gu Ran. When they saw that Gu Ran was really so young, they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Gu Ran looks even younger than they are.
How did he do it? Does he really have real skills
This is a question many people have.
Now, they knew that Gu Ran’s age was at least the same as the legend said, and he was really unrealistically young. The next step was to see how good his level was.
Gu Ran began to write on the blackboard.
"Star Stone is the most important energy source known in the world. It has a wide range of uses in both the field of cultivation and the field of science."
Gu Ran wrote down the key points while explaining the content of the lecture.
Although the blackboard was small for this classroom, and Gu Ran's handwriting was even smaller, many people sitting in the back saw the words on the blackboard as small as tadpoles. Fortunately, most people in Canglong City practiced some martial arts. Even if they could not become masters, they could improve their eyesight to a certain extent by strengthening their bodies. So they could see Gu Ran's writing on the blackboard clearly.
"The earliest discovery of the Star Stone dates back to the era of Lord City-States. At that time, humans had not yet built a main city and were scattered into small cities. Each small city had a city lord."
"At that time, human power was very scattered. We had to face natural disasters and prevent the invasion of beasts. There was no human alliance to gather all the power of mankind."
"So humans at that time were very weak and faced life and death at all times, until they discovered the Star Stone."
Gu Ran knew the history of Star Stone by heart. Even without reading the lecture notes, he could still tell the story.
These students are freshmen at Lanxin University. Perhaps they have heard about the history of Star Stone before, but this is the first time they have heard it in such detail. They couldn't help but show interest.
Most people like to listen to stories, especially when Gu Ran tells the story well, they are willing to listen carefully.
"It is impossible to know who first discovered the function of the Star Stone, but everyone should know the time, which was approximately 995. Why do I say approximately, rather than absolutely certain? Because this year was determined by later historians after multiple investigations. So I want to add "approximately" here. It's not that I have any objection to those historians, but just out of personal rigor."
"Humans discovered that the energy contained in star stones can be absorbed by the hetero crystal cores, helping to strengthen the hetero crystal cores. Therefore, in a short period of time, star stones quickly became well known to humans. However, because ordinary star stones have a lot of energy impurities, when the hetero energy absorbs the star stone energy, these impurities will also be absorbed. Therefore, these impurities have to be removed regularly."
"Afterwards, in order to find star stones with fewer impurities, humans began to expand their exploration of the wilderness. The locations of many of our main cities were discovered during this long-lasting exploration."
"In addition to searching for natural pure star stones, humans have also begun to try to refine pure star stones themselves. This process has continued to this day. We are still working hard to refine even purer pure star stones, but the purity that can be refined is no longer the same as before."
"The martial arts practitioners who developed later also tried to integrate the star stones into their own practice at the first opportunity. As a result, the star stones also had an excellent effect on martial arts practice. Therefore, the star stones became an indispensable strategic resource for humans to cultivate extraordinary abilities."
"There have been many wars in history for the control of starstone mines, but most of them were just fights between cities, or even within the main city. It was not until the development of the starstone industry in modern times that the wars became larger and larger, affecting almost all the main cities of mankind."
"If you have studied history well, you should be familiar with the war that just happened. This war completely changed the human pattern. Two main cities disappeared, and a new one was built, involving nearly 100 million people."
"However, the reason for this war may be different from what many people imagine. It was not because of the fight for the Star Stone mines, but because the then president of the Human Alliance suppressed the rising Star Stone industry and wanted to keep humans in the pre-industrial era forever."
Because it was the first class, and the part he was responsible for was only one of the simplest parts, Gu Ran did not say anything too profound, but slowly led everyone to listen to the class with historical stories.
The effect seemed pretty good. Gu Ran took a quick look around and found that he had captured the attention of most students.
After writing on the blackboard, Gu Ran clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's start talking about the properties of starstone. It is a high-energy substance and has three forms: solid, liquid and gas..."
Hearing that Gu Ran suddenly turned to a serious lecture and stopped telling historical stories, many people sighed in disappointment.
"What's next? Teacher!"
