Chapter 67: A Mirage
The professors plus Garthersis sat at one table, Lin Xiuyan at one table, and the assistants and students of the other professors were left, just two more tables. The party of more than 40 people had a lot of people, but because it was a one-story building, the store removed the extra tables and chairs, and everyone was lively but not crowded.
The first wave to arrive chose "Emerald Forest" as the theme of the set. Holograms render the entire floor space into a sun-dappled verdant forest, with soft music, birds, insects, and gurgling water...... Well, these beautiful sounds are basically inaudible. The scholars who stood at the forefront of the times, their outstanding romantic cells, were inadvertently wasted by themselves.
Lin Xiu, as the teacher of the first research, although he is not amiable, he is by no means indifferent and arrogant. In Zheng Wenhan's words, Teacher Lin, who is not smiling, the students feel that it is the majesty of Lin Xiu's teacher. At this point, the special forces of steel and iron bones did not catch up with these students, there is no way, the team members who know that Lin Xiu's ability is terrifying, in the face of Captain Lin, who is not smiling, will really feel afraid.
The student door "boldly" dragged Lin Xiu over.
"Teacher, I want to eat this, this, this, is it okay?" Shen Hao pointed to the delicious food projected on the menu and nodded sharply.
"Yes. "Lin Xiu.
"Yes!!, teacher, this matsutake mushroom is said to be more expensive than gold......" Shen Hao peeked at his teacher's expression and made a "final struggle".
"Hmm. Lin Xiu only said one word.
Shen Hao was depressed. In particular, the teacher just said "um" so simply, he suddenly felt embarrassed that he was messing around with his parents, what to do, or, don't order it.
“…… Uh, teacher, I'm kidding, that, I'm not particularly fond of mushrooms. Shen Hao said.
Lin Xiu paused, in fact, he was aware of Shen Hao's various small actions and careful thoughts.
Looking at Shen Hao, this boy is very smart and lively, he has his current grades at the age of twenty, and he can be said to be a genius. After observing for nearly a month, Lin Xiu felt that Shen Hao had excellent character and was a rare talent worth cultivating, and for a few years, he had only met Shen Hao in such a suitable field. If Shen Hao is willing, it is not bad to stay in his research room, and in the future, Shen Hao will be a good partner if he sets up his own door.
"I don't particularly like it, so I like it anyway. Lin Xiu's voice carried his unique warmth, "Didn't you say that you have to work hard, don't worry, you won't deflat my wallet." ”
"Oh, that's good. ”
…… Shen Hao reacted to what Lin Xiu was talking about, and was shocked.
"Teacher, I, you, how do you know?!" he said, glancing unkindly at the people present.
Lin Xiu answered questions very brightly and gestured to Rong Yun.
"Classmate Rong...... It turned out to be you......" Shen Hao used an elongated voice to show that he was very dissatisfied and unhappy.
Rong Yun was originally reading the recipe carefully, but when he looked up, he was stunned for a moment when he saw Shen Hao's expression on his face, and explained a little inexplicably: "When Senior Shen called, Teacher Lin was next to me. "Why did you look at him so sadly?did Lin Xiu know what the impact was?
"......" Shen Hao.
"I say it or not, the result is the same. Rong Yun looked at Lin Xiu and asked with confirmation.
"Hmm. Lin Xiu nodded.
"............" Shen Hao.
A student next to him understood this scene, and he couldn't hold back his laughter anymore.
"Teacher, can you really order this matsutake mushroom?" asked a foodie with a big heart.
"Hmm. Lin Xiu patiently said "um" again.
Through this little episode, the atmosphere was lively again, and the students were also able to let go.
You must know that the people present are definitely among the best figures in the current cutting-edge academic fields, and the students are so excited that they want to follow, but they are inevitably a little nervous when they come.
There are the leaders in the field of geology, astronomy and quantum physics, materials science, computer science, information science...... Well, Professor Benson's position as the boss of information science has gradually been replaced by Lin Xiu in recent years.
And these people, in the process of Lin Xiu's defeat of Suleiman's economic empire, helped Lin Xiu with a "show of hands" that normal people can't help with money.
It is worth mentioning that there was only one professor of country Z at the scene, which was just a coincidence, after all, it was only this time that Lin Xiu was the only one who was present tonight. Lin Xiu also has friends in the academic world of country Z, but the fields are different, for example, there is a material science boss who is called an alchemist in the West, and for example, the most typical deputy team of Zheng Wenhan, he is the dean of the Humanities College, even if he wants to help with this, there are objective difficulties, right?
Lin Xiu returned to his seat and sat back next to Garthasis, and a certain demon lord immediately gave a large smile, satisfied.
Speaking of which, Lin Xiu has the exciting news of the person he is dating with, and the professors in the same seat have already heard about it from Professor Benson, and when they just sat down tonight, everyone couldn't wait to gossip about it.
These top figures in academia, don't look at the usual people who seem to be high in their respective fields, but when they sit together at a party, they actually ruin their images. Let's just talk about the content of this ridicule, what two handsome guys have really become, you can pull a large ticket for sponsorship just by your face, being an image ambassador is definitely a super enrollment advertisement, etc., etc., there is everything.
It's a pity that Lin Xiu has always been "pure-hearted", and they didn't stir up any sparks when they teased, and that Mr. Garthersis Hill, from time to time, a sunny and handsome smile of approval was delivered to everyone, often flashing so that they forgot what they were going to say next.
Anyway, after a round of ridicule, they had a good time.
However, I thought I could get used to watching the two of them sit together, but now I see this silent show of affection...... Thinking of Lin Xiu's usual "bad" character...... The professors were so shaken that they couldn't help but twitch the corners of their eyes.
After touching the glass a few times, Professor Hawke, blushing, opened his mouth.
"Lin, you took my number and did such a big vote, causing a major reshuffle in the world's rare earth energy supply, is there nothing to say now?"
Obviously, Professor Hawke was the owner of the nickname "It's annoying to have a typhoon blowing every day" that was exchanged by Lin Xiu in the chat group that day. Professor Erefate Hawke is a native of China M, an internationally renowned scholar, and a leader in the global geological research community. Nearly seventy years old, he seems to be a slow and logical classical gentleman, but he is actually very childlike.
"There's something to say. Lin Xiu said, and then lowered his head slightly, "I'm sorry, I deliberately didn't tell you what I was going to do in the future." ”
“…… Lin, I'm asking seriously this time. ”
"I mean it. Lin Xiu said seriously, "If I say the purpose in advance, will you not count it for me?"
“…… Uh, I'll give it anyway. Looking at the current behavior of those personnel in the relevant departments, I will say, at most a few levels, there should be no problem. ”
"I was in a hurry, Mr. Hawke. Lin Xiu pointed out the key.
"Oh......"
Suleiman Ben Bella, the nominal M man, is in fact a monopoly giant who only represents his own interests, hoarding wealth and recruiting troops. As a geology, Professor Hawke is no stranger to energy and knows very well what is at stake.
"Okay. Professor Hawke was a little speechless, and after all, he was a little confused, "If nothing else, you don't know the value of those numbers anyway?" "The global high seas geological numbers are not uncommon, but his accuracy and detail cannot be compared with others in the short term.
"I've given you the number jù analysis algorithm and the final source code, isn't it enough for you to explain?"
"It's enough, it's just that the relevant departments are in a hurry by you, and they're in a bad mood, but I still have to deal with them. Professor Hawke muttered.
“…… So I didn't say the purpose. "Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu still has a good understanding of the methods of those departments in country M.
Regardless of the purpose, Professor Hawke really doesn't know, so no matter how unhappy the relevant departments of country M are, they can't find fault with Professor Hawke. Then, Professor Hawke had Lin Xiu's algorithm and code, which is a normal collaborative research.
At most, the relevant departments of country M are gritting their teeth at Lin Xiu. Does Lin Xiu care about this?
"......" Professor Hawke.
So a qiē still starts with that sentence, someone just deliberately didn't say the purpose......
So Professor Hawke finally stopped talking, and after glancing at Lin Xiu again, he directly poured three glasses of wine for Lin Xiu. The other people at the table, except for Garthasis, also had a tacit understanding and poured a large cup for Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu didn't say anything more, and drank all the wine very respectfully.
Professor Benson looked at the amount of wine Lin Xiu drank in one go, and couldn't help but faint subconsciously. It's a pity that Lin Xiu basically can't see any reaction when he drinks, which is a very enviable and unpleasant thing. In fact, since they tried to put down Lin Xiu twice in a row, but Lin Xiu put them all down in turn, Lin Xiu had to open six or seven more rooms to accommodate them, and after that, they no longer "humiliated themselves".
Professor Hawke stopped talking, and Professor Benson took over.
"Lin, don't talk about our country, what about your country, it's so big, the relevant departments of country Z won't ignore you. Professor Benson started the second round of condemnation, and it seemed that he didn't intend to let Lin Xiu go.
"Yes, but I don't have to deal with it myself. ”
"Oh," Professor Benson said suddenly, "I see, I don't see it, you're quite 'unfilial'." ”
“…… Be. Lin Xiu did not deny it. didn't explain much, in fact, his father, Admiral Lin Yan, had a similar idea, and this time he pushed the boat down the river to implement it.
Professor Benson instinctively realized that the topic seemed to be reaching out to inconvenient territory.
"Ahem, what, what did I say in the last correspondence, Lin, you are sincere, explain what you can say. ”
"Can you say that?" Lin Xiu's tone was calm, "Personally, we can take this rare earth resource reshuffle incident as a real thing." For the public energy of the high seas, the global fully cooperative development and use, the simulation of real yàn. The last sentence is somewhat meaningful.
Hearing this, Professor Hawke glanced at Lin Xiu in surprise.
The top scholars here looked at each other, and some things were tacitly understood.
High Seas Utility Energy ...... x Energy.
There are more or less rumors in the pinnacle academic field, and rumors that a next-generation energy source has been loomingly discovered and demonstrated--X energy. However, because science has always been a double-edged sword, no one has published the results of the research publicly, and even further research has been suppressed to a minimum, because this is a discovery that may lead to a revolution in the new generation of military weapons...... In other words, if one is not done well, it will be a war beyond the imagination of the entire history of mankind.
And this X energy, ten out of ten * is a public energy source on the high seas.
Scholars who have moved away from the pursuit of fame and fortune, especially after learning from the experience of their predecessors, have learned to be more cautious about a dangerous research result.
Real yàn...... Is it?
I see.
In that case, they really don't mind continuing to do their best to help this "real yàn".
"By the way, is Suleiman bin Bella really missing?" said a slightly blessed beautiful professor in the audience, and in the tacit understanding of everyone, he changed the topic nearby.
"Lin, I'm curious, even if it's a real yàn, why did you choose Suleiman?
"That Mr. Bella is just right. Lin Xiu stated.
“…… I think that's a very profound answer. Professor Benson quipped.
The once strict atmosphere has returned to liveliness, and everyone has come to a satisfactory conclusion.
The resolution of things always seems to be silent, as if peeling back a cocoon. When things happen, they often happen suddenly. In fact, as long as you pay a little attention, you may be able to find that sudden events have a pre-inevitability.
The gathering in the Emerald Forest continued, and almost at the same time, Lin Xiu and Professor Hawke's communication terminals rang with a reminder to receive 6 letters. Then, Professor Benson's rang too, and in a short time, all the professors' communication terminals rang......
Professor Hawke and Professor Benson, who were a little drunk, did not react to anything, and instinctively read the information.
There was a look of confusion on the faces of some people who didn't drink.
Lin Xiu, who was in an absolutely conscious state, saw the content of the information in an extremely rare light, his eyes sank, and he frowned slightly.
The message was sent by Admiral Lin Yan and reads as follows:
At 17 p.m. national time, large mirages were observed in several cities along the eastern coast. In the mirage, you can see that the palace is splendid, and the pavilions are stacked and green, and it is beautiful. Countless people took photos and uploaded them to the Internet to record this beautiful moment. Now, through multi-point sampling, the actual location of the mirage has been calculated as quickly as possible, an island in the eastern high seas.
Other countries in the world have also noticed this mysterious island for the first time through a large number of photos posted by netizens in country Z, because it is located in the open sea, although the naval and air forces of country Z are the first to arrive, they have almost no advantages.
This mysterious island seems to have appeared overnight, and in the face of a suspected ruin, it may be necessary to gather a scientific and technological research team to study it under strong protection.
Lin Xiu, the captain of the Balance Shield Brigade, is now ready to carry out the next task immediately-
1. Serve as an information analysis expert in the exploration group
2. Serve as the escort captain of the exploration team
Above.
P.S. 5 minutes after this message is sent, the world will broadcast the news.
However, what Lin Xiu cared about was not these contents, but the top picture.
…… If his memory is not wrong, the scene of this mirage, or rather, the golden temple on that mysterious island, was the picture that used as the background last night when he appeared in the Glass Pavilion, when the mysterious white-haired and black-clad uninvited guest appeared!
Lin Xiu replied with a message to Admiral Lin Yan. He said that he had received the order and apologized because he was at a party and it was inconvenient for him to communicate directly. Finally, most importantly, Lin Xiu explained that the scene of the mirage was the same as the background of the mysterious man who appeared last night.
Lin Yan quickly replied because he had also received the same explanation from Lin Cheng. Admiral Lin Yan began to realize that things might be more troublesome than he had imagined.
At this time, five minutes had passed, and the students' personal portable terminals began to prompt information one after another.
"Big event, big international event!" is the normal reaction of the students.
"Video news, turn on video news. "A student opened a news channel in the "Emerald Forest".
“…… Rolling broadcast, good evening viewers, tonight at 17 o'clock...... ,…… Advance teams from 18 countries have already arrived on the scene, and we will be at your disposal to follow up on the news. ”
This is a great discovery that instantly attracted the attention of all blue stars! I believe that at this moment, all blue stars are equally excited and curious.
The students watched it with bated breath and talked excitedly, and some of the students who reacted quickly seemed to have finally thought of something and looked at their teacher's table.
"Teacher, you ......"
"Lin, I've received an invitation to my country's exploration mission. Professor Benson said. His information analysis techniques, as well as image processing techniques, are absolutely the primary tools for exploration.
"I received it too. Professor Hawke smiled, his expression solemn and expectant. He is an expert in geology and is also the expert of choice if there is underground engineering.
"As you might have guessed, I also received an invitation from my country. Lin Xiu didn't hide it.
"Wow, teacher, I heard you right. I have the feeling that I am witnessing something big! By the way, teacher, if you really go, I will be your assistant. Shen Hao said. On some kind of Cheng dù, he is really heartless when he says this.
"This time, we don't know if it's going to be a collaboration or an adversary?" said Professor Benson, his face full of enthusiasm for the unknown challenge.
If Lin Xiu was a simple scholar, maybe he would have the same reaction. However, he knew that there might be an even more unpredictable danger behind it.
Lin Xiu was thinking, but everyone present didn't know that another thing that was about to shock everyone even more was happening.
Less than ten minutes after the news was broadcast, Lin Yan sent a message to Lin Xiu again.
This is a video message.
In the huge space of the glaze, in the illusory background, a man with white hair and black clothes in the traditional Z country costume is slowly clear......
Another man in modern attire stood on the spot with two guns in his hands and his shirt stained with blood......
The figure of the white-haired man has been transformed into a modern outfit......
The white-haired man faced the man with two guns, pressed his hand to his chest, bowed, and made a gesture as if to invite.
On top of that, the illusory background is the mirage and mysterious island that is now boiling over.
Obviously, the picture Lin Xiu is very familiar.
Nonsense, it is the picture of the Glass Pavilion last night, and the man with two guns is Lin Xiu himself.
Why is there this video? and how did Admiral Lin Yan get it?
Admiral Lin Yan attached private information: The source of this video is still being tracked. It was originally posted on the video network of country Y, and after a little confirmation, I knew that it was a real video picture, and now several countries are adding fuel to the fire, and we can't control it.
The incident is troublesome, but, minor repair, you obviously have big trouble first. This video will soon start to spread explosively around the world, and Dad is trying to figure out a way.
There was no questioning, no accusation, Admiral Lin Yan only expressed concern. But this kind of concern cannot change the current unusual but really intractable situation.
