Soon, Huo Yushen made a video call invitation to Su Buyan.
Su Buyan had already returned to Beichenxing's laboratory.
After he left Zangge Star, he went directly to the flight base on Kanli Star.
They found unused nano-fiber optic data cables in the seventh material warehouse there and brought them back to the laboratory on Beichen Star for further research.
He answered Huo Yushen's video call and said with a smile, "Huo Shuai, are you not busy lately? When are you going to the Sester asteroid belt for search and rescue?"
Huo Yushen observed him calmly, then suddenly asked, "Have you made any breakthroughs in your research on the new mecha?"
Su Buyan's eyes widened: "How did you know?!"
Really a breakthrough?
Huo Yushen was about to ask for details when he heard Su Buyan complain, "Theoretically, my idea is indeed a breakthrough, and my apprentice has given a lot of good ideas."
"Unfortunately, without good specialty metals, those ideas are difficult to realize."
"Of course, if I have enough exotic metals, I can break through and show you a more advanced mecha in a minute!"
Huo Yushen's expression was no longer as cold as before. Even his tone was warm, and he spoke in a gentle and persuasive manner: "...Just a theoretical breakthrough? That's a pity. What kind of special metal do you need? Just tell me."
"Our team members just brought back a batch of exotic metals. Maybe they'll be more suitable for you?"
Because dissimilar metals are higher grade than special metals.
Su Buyan was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Really?! What are they?! I can't wait!"
Huo Yushen looked at the list of exotic metals sent over by the Materials Department and said, "The most common one is Xuanguang Soft Stone."
"Ah?! That's good stuff! How much is there?! Can I come and get it right away?!" Su Buyan rubbed his hands, wishing he could fly over immediately.
Huo Yushen picked up the palm-sized fiery red phoenix statue and said with a smile, "There's also this one. I don't know what metal it is made of, but I was planning to send it to you."
Su Buyan looked at the statue, carefully observing it for a long time, and said, "...Is this natural metal? Why does it look like it has been processed?"
Huo Yushen took a look and said casually, "It seems so, but I don't know how it was smelted. However, the shape is good. Does it look familiar to you?"
Su Buyan's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly, saying, "It looks familiar! I must have seen it in my dream! Hahahaha!"
Huo Yushen looked up at him and thought, this is a pretty good excuse.
Su Buyan was still delighted: "I was delighted the moment I saw it! I have an inspiration! Can you give me this statue?! I want to build a mecha like this for my apprentice!"
Huo Yushen smiled, his mind still churning: Not bad, not bad, isn't this a perfect ending? Who said Master Su was the most honest? ——Ever since he got a cunning apprentice, it seems he's become corrupted by the black around him.
Su Buyan was completely clueless about Huo Yushen's imagination and continued excitedly, "Last time, she asked me if her Shao Siming mecha could be transformed into more different designs! I want to build this and give it to her as a birthday present!"
Huo Yushen: "..."
You've thought long-term, even taking birthdays into consideration. It really kills two birds with one stone.
When the people from their Special Security Bureau see it, they will be able to confirm the "Su Shangtian" that will happen "five hundred years later"!
These master and disciple are really cunning...
Huo Yushen suppressed his complicated emotions and asked calmly, "Did she ask? When did she ask?"
"It was just a few hours ago, right? Didn't I go to Zangge Star to personally inspect their fighter jets? After meeting her, I could see that she has a lot of experience and understanding about mechas. It turns out that only those who actually use mechas can develop more uses for mechas. It's not good for us, the creators of mechas, to build them behind closed doors." Su Buyan said nonchalantly, his eyes fixed on the fiery red phoenix-shaped mecha in Huo Yushen's hand.
A smile flashed across Huo Yushen's face, and then he said, "No problem, I'll send it to you. This metal seems to be electrified, so you have to be careful."
"I know. I'll use an insulating device to handle it." Su Buyan's eyes lit up, and he cupped his hands and said to Huo Yushen, "Thank you, Mr. Huo! I'll treat you to dinner later!"
Huo Yushen acted as if he didn't care and said, "The confidentiality level on your side will be increased. From now on, don't tell anyone about this kind of thing in any occasion. I can't tell it either, and your apprentice must not tell it either."
Su Buyan frowned: "I agree not to tell you. But I can't hide it from my apprentice."
Huo Yushen's voice was a little cold: "Oh? Your apprentice is more important than me?"
Su Buyan confidently said, "My apprentice is the first user and trial user of my mecha. It is from her that I can truly transform and improve the mecha! If I don't even tell my apprentice, what future does my mecha have?! I'm just resting on my laurels!"
The more Su Buyan said this, the more Huo Yushen felt that there was an unknown secret between him and Xia Chujian.
But Huo Yushen didn't want to reveal this secret.
Besides, he didn't want others to know.
Huo Yushen pretended to give in and said with embarrassment, "That can only be discussed between you and Xia Chujian. No one else, including your parents, family, and His Majesty, can know about it."
Su Buyan nodded repeatedly: "Who told them! I'm not bored and want to cause trouble for myself!"
Huo Yushen continued to hit with the sledgehammer: "...It's okay if you cause trouble for yourself, those people will definitely show mercy to you. But your apprentice can't do that. She has a very low status and is not a genetic evolver. If she is targeted by someone, she won't know how to die."
