In a nondescript building in the corner of the campus, Rockefeller University is in a conference room with an area of about 200 square meters.

A total of five people sat at a large round table in the middle of the conference room.

There were a lot of empty seats around the round table, and it seemed that there would be at least twenty or so people in the meeting at a time.

In the middle of the round table is a large hollow, in which a three-dimensional hologram device is placed, at which point a video appears to have just finished playing, and the hologram suddenly disappears.

"Mr. Beardwood, that's the whole battle, except for those useless fronts, the actual battle is only a few seconds in total, and with just one punch, all the forty-two clones carefully selected by your department are killed, without showing the slightest bit of competitiveness they should have. Purely from the table, it is really regrettable. ”

Bignell said with a sad expression.

But the schadenfreude in the tone is extremely obvious.

"I want to play it again and play it at a 100x slower speed, and at the same time I will have all the numbers that have been monitored in the process on the side, and I want to see every detail clearly."

Known as Mr. Beardwood, he was a white man who was also the head of the cloning department, and in sheer terms of status, he was on par with Kettels.

Although Bignell's tone was full of provocation, Beardwood didn't pay attention to it at all, and directly ordered Winkel beside him.

However, the solemn expression on Beardwood's face showed that his state of mind at this time was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Winkel agreed, and began working on the hologram again.

In addition to these three people, the other two people in the room were Caitters and a member of the Rockefeller family.

Neville. Rockefeller, the head of the Rockefeller family's generation, is an ordinary seventy-year-old man on the surface.

But even in the entire territory of the American Empire, there are few people with a more honorable status than this old man.

In a sense, the Rockefeller family can even be regarded as synonymous with the American Empire, although the name of Rockefeller has not appeared in the so-called wealth ranking for a long time, but for this family, the wealth ranking has no meaning.

Due to the increasing transparency of society, many consortia are choosing to keep a low profile as much as possible, always exposed to the sun, which does not meet the needs of most consortia.

Perhaps the Rockefeller family's overt wealth is no longer impressive, but its hidden influence is incalculable.

The investors behind the clone department and the Super Troopers occupy the lion's share of the Rockefeller family.

Although there are other chaebols involved, the Rockefeller family occupies an absolute dominant position in it.

So in such a meeting, except for the two leaders of Kettles and Beardwood, only Neville was invited. Rockefeller alone.

Because this contemporary patriarch of the Rockefeller family can fully represent the opinions of all funding providers.

"Caittels, the powerful Cheng Dù of the cultivators who participated in this battle, at what level can he rank in the Eastern Realm?"

Neville. Rockefeller watched Beardwood continue to study the stereoscopic image more carefully and carefully, and knew that he couldn't understand the concepts between the numbers, so he simply asked Kettles next to him.

"This ...... Do you want to hear the truth, or do you want to be false? ”

Caittles asked, after a deep sigh.

Neville. Rockefeller frowned, looked at Caittels' calm expression, and then spoke: "Caitls, I know that you are dissatisfied with our recent decision, thinking that it is a huge strategic mistake and a very short-sighted act to abandon the research of the Super Sentai and instead fully support the clone department. Personally, I agree with your thoughts and opinions. ”

Keitels looked at Neville in surprise and didn't say anything, just waited for the rest of the story.

"But I also want you to understand what a heavy burden the research on the Super Sentai is for us and for the Empire. It is no exaggeration to say that over the years, in order to maintain the research and operation of the entire super team, the scientific and technological development process of the empire has been delayed for at least ten years! You should understand what that means. ”

Neville's tone was calm, speaking in a declarative tone.

"I understand, I can understand, but I don't agree."

Kettles said without hesitation.

"Whether you agree with it or not, we have to look at the big picture, with such a huge investment, we must see enough results and returns, but the reality is that the Super Combat Team does have a certain amount of combat effectiveness, but this combat effectiveness is still far from our requirements. Such achievements have made us less and less confident, and make us wonder whether it is worth continuing such a huge investment. Maybe one day, it will be possible for you to achieve what we expect with the support of this investment, but the question is ...... How long will it take? Will the Empire be able to withstand your horrific consumption of resources in the process? Keitels, I understand that the development of the Super Team is actually the right way. But that's the way this is in the world, and a lot of times, the right path doesn't mean it's necessarily right, and by nature, we're businessmen. ”

When Neville said this, seeing that Caittles wanted to speak, he couldn't help but wave his hand to stop Caittels' intention to speak, and continued: "So, Caitls, I hope you can put aside those subjective dissatisfaction and answer my question with the most objective attitude possible. Our country has no historical background, so we can only rely on a faster pace of development to bridge this gap. You are powerful, but you must have delayed this speed, and my personal appreciation cannot be overridden by the interests of the whole, and so must you! 一qiē...... For the Empire! ”

Caittles listened to Neville's words and took a deep breath with his eyes closed.

When he opened his eyes again, there was a clear look in his eyes.

Neville nodded secretly, quietly waiting for Caittels' answer.

Ye Su...... Very strong, he has unparalleled talent and growth potential, he is what I know...... The cultivator who has the fastest increase in strength. This is the second time I've seen him, but the strength he showed has changed qualitatively from the first time I saw him. It's only been a few months since I first met him. However, if he was judged purely by the strength he showed in this real battle, he should only be ranked in the third echelon among those cultivators in the East, and the cultivators who were more powerful than him might not be a hundred, but dozens of them...... There are still some after all. ”

Kettels' story was as unintentional as possible.

"So many ......"

Neville was a little hard to believe.

"Moreover, there is a huge gap in the strength between those cultivators in the east, and the strongest among the cultivators, facing the overwhelming advantage that a cultivator of Ye Su's strength can form, will only be greater, not smaller, than the advantage that Ye Su has formed over the clone in this battle."

Kettles affirmed.

Neville's pupils contracted, and his eyes turned to the stereoscopic image that was slowing down at a hundredfold speed, and fell silent for a moment.
