As a senior traveler who can travel at any time, after saying goodbye to Tang Tianxin, Chen Feng quietly left before dawn.

In the morning, Lin Bu couldn't find anyone, so he went to block Ding Hu's door.

Brother Hu, who felt that he had lost his beloved disciple, was not in a good mood. "I know where he went, but I don't want to tell you."

"You must tell me!" Lin Bu stood on the side of the road with his hands on his hips, not letting him go. "I order you with the rank of colonel, Captain Ding Hu."

Ding Hu was so angry that he trembled all over.

He was angry, but there was nothing he could do.

As a captain, he had to bow his head to other colonels.

Although the two parties belonged to different systems and Lin Bu was not his direct superior, Ding Hu could refuse the other party's orders in wartime, but now it was a state of daily training after all, and Lin Bu did have certain authority.

Ding Hu couldn't stand being embarrassed like this, his eyes rolled around.

He quickly came up with an idea, "Come on, it's useless for me to tell you. You won't go to find him, and there's no point in looking for him."

"How do you know if I'll go if you don't tell me?"

"Well, if after I tell you, you decide not to go to find him. Then you stay at the Great Snow Mountain Base and help me train my new recruits."

"Okay!"

Lin Bu agreed casually.

"Chen Feng went to the Academy of Sciences. He switched to scientific research. He will set up a project team there."

"What!"

"You may not know that in addition to being a new recruit, he is also an expert researcher at the Academy of Sciences. Are you going to the Academy of Sciences to challenge a scholar?"

Now it was Lin Bu's turn to be depressed, "I..."

Ding Hu: "Go ahead, no one will stop you. Go ahead. I'll see you off."

"Forget it, I'll be your teaching assistant."

Lin Bu sighed, extremely dejected.

On the other side, a super-large city is located in the central region of China.

This city covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square kilometers and has a strong sense of technology. Buildings of various types and colors of metal structures rise into the clouds. There are also several high-power superconducting microwave cables that go straight into the sky, connecting to the co-orbital power relay satellites in outer space.

The sky of the city is densely covered with various types of vehicles, and sometimes people stand or sit on chairs and read books with their legs crossed.

Although there are countless flying vehicles, their operation is very stable and regular, and they intersect with each other.

The distance between the vehicles is always constant, and countless light bands form a woven network covering the entire city.

Looking at the passengers on the aerial vehicles who are so comfortable, you know that behind the city, there is an extremely powerful artificial intelligence that maintains the order of the city and brings convenience to people.

This city is the world-renowned science city with a total population of 500 million.

More than 70% of the world's scientific research practitioners have settled here.

Chen Feng's fast shuttle landed on the transportation hub platform on the edge of the city.

From here on, his personal means of transportation will be replaced with a flatbed vehicle like everyone else.

If he wants to go somewhere, he only needs to enter the destination in his personal AI assistant, and the vehicle will automatically merge into the city's three-dimensional transportation network to take him to his destination in the shortest time.

Even if he crosses the entire city, it only takes less than ten minutes.

However, he was not in a hurry to get going. Instead, he found a bench in the southwest corner of the hub platform square and sat down with his legs crossed.

Before leaving, he had a friendly and cordial conversation with the only student, Ou Qinglan.

Ou Qinglan "took the initiative" to pick him up and take him, a new expert who had never been to Science City, to check out the area, report in, and settle personal accommodation issues.

The time they agreed to meet was 9:15 in the morning, but Chen Feng arrived about 20 minutes early.

Since he was free anyway, Chen Feng asked the personal terminal to play a few songs from the 21st century for him. While listening to the songs, he looked up at the people coming and going on the floating hub platform.

Almost every second, thousands of people left the Science City through this platform, or walked off the fast shuttle and stood on the flatbed vehicle leading to the city.

People were very busy and in a hurry.

Almost no one stopped.

The vast majority of people were rushing on the road, reading documents, giving oral reports, participating in wireless meetings, or immersed in the holographic system, busy with this or that.

Almost no one was chatting and talking nonsense.

Even if they run into acquaintances, the smart terminal will often remind them that there are friends nearby.

Then the two people will briefly come back to their senses from what they are immersed in, smile at each other, and pass by each other without saying a word.

In the huge square, there are only the dense footsteps like raindrops and the sound of vehicles taking off or landing.

From time to time, this situation even happens. Someone is lying on a flatbed vehicle, wrapped in a quilt, flying to the hub platform. When he is about to arrive, this person suddenly opens his eyes, lifts the quilt, sits up straight, and opens his hand.

His eyes quickly focus, and his fingers tap in the air in front of him.

It takes less than five seconds to switch from a nap to a working state.

This atmosphere is extremely tense and busy.

Chen Feng frowned slightly. Is this the legendary 24-hour high-intensity work mode?

This...

In the military camp, he could not feel the atmosphere outside.

The training of others might be very hard, but he had already passed in advance and lived a very comfortable and relaxed life. He didn't know how tired others were.

But when he arrived in this science city, Chen Feng truly realized how hard and how anxious the people in this timeline were under the true republican system where all mankind shared the same hatred and unity.

Middle-aged white hair and baldness can be seen everywhere. Many people who have achieved a considerable level of scholarship have become bald or gray-haired long ago.

Hair loss is a cruel reality that heavy mental workers in the 31st century have to face.

Even if you can use technology to grow hair, it will fall out soon, so just ignore it.

There are not many senior scholars like Ou Qinglan who have become expert researchers and are still not bald.

Even if you are not bald, you are generally prone to premature graying of hair.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng's mood is quite complicated.

He sometimes feels angry about his lonely struggle.

Why me?

Why do I have to work so hard?

Is this unfair to me?

Now he doesn't think so.

Others may not know as much as he does, but this does not hinder everyone's efforts.

What supports these people to fight so hard?

It is not difficult to guess.

Before the decisive day comes, leave more valuable scientific research results, or see with your own eyes that the results of your creation are applied to the war.

Even if it is just adding a laboratory product and debugging a new limit parameter of military equipment, it can slightly increase the chances of human victory.

The battlefield of the soldiers is in the training ground and on the battlefield of the future.

The battlefield of scientific researchers is in their respective laboratories and projects.

Never stop, never stop.

Fight until the last moment of life.

This is the only life creed of scientific researchers in this era.

Chen Feng controlled the personal terminal to check the data.

It was just as he expected.

In this era, the average life expectancy of soldiers and ordinary workers has exceeded two hundred years.

But the average lifespan of scientific researchers is only 150 years.

Even with the most advanced medical and health-preserving methods, the average lifespan of those scholars who have reached the master level is still less than 180, which is a far cry from the average data of all mankind. Before

the war officially broke out, it was these scientific researchers who had been sacrificing for mankind.

Scientific researchers not only work hard but also sacrifice their lives, so they should be respected.

This is also the reason why Lin Bu heard that Chen Feng came to the Academy of Sciences, even though he was very unwilling, he had no choice but to give up the idea in the end.

In addition to the title of genius warrior, Chen Feng's achievements in the field of scientific research are also eye-catching.

"Excuse me, are you Teacher Chen Feng?"

When Chen Feng was full of emotion, a crisp voice rang beside him.

Chen Feng suddenly woke up, raised his head and looked away, his eyes slightly bright.

What a group of rare treasures these are. Are

all of classmate Ou Qinglan's subordinates so good-looking?

Beside him, there stood seven or eight girls in pure white slim-fitting uniforms.

Compared to the silver-haired bald men that can be seen everywhere in the square, these girls with slim figures and black hair are particularly eye-catching.

Chen Feng thought to himself, did Ou Qinglan receive secret instructions from Tang Tianxin and deliberately arrange a bunch of young and beautiful female researchers to test himself?

How boring.

Am I such a vulgar person with such a weak willpower?

This is too contemptuous.

He stood up and said with a friendly smile, "Well, I'm Chen Feng. Are you friends of Ou Qinglan? Are you here to pick me up?"

A short-haired girl behind him shouted, "No... Ouch."

She was stepped on by the long-haired girl in front of her.

This long-haired girl was the one who greeted Chen Feng just now. The

long-haired girl smiled, "Yes, we are friends of Teacher Ou. She had something to do temporarily and couldn't come. So she asked us to help her pick you up."

"Sorry for the trouble, just one person will do. Really, why did so many people come." Chen Feng didn't doubt him, stood up and followed him.

About a few minutes later, Ou Qinglan and an old man stood in the hub square and looked at each other.

Ou Qinglan: "Where is he?"

The old man said, "Why don't you call him?"

Five seconds later, Ou Qinglan shook her head in astonishment, "I can't get through. They said he's in a confidential place and no external contact is allowed."

She was at a loss.

Where else could he go?

Could it be that in today's information-based society, a living person like Chen Feng could be lost?

On the other side, Chen Feng was drinking tea in a hall built with white metal walls, looking confused.

After he and the group left the hub, they didn't fly far on the vehicle and drove directly into a large house on the edge of the science city.

Then these people asked him to sit down and told him to notify Teacher Ou Qinglan immediately and wait for a moment.

The prettiest one stayed behind to pour him tea, put a fruit plate on it, and chat with him.

Chen Feng thought, although it was fun to look at beautiful women, his time was precious after all, and it was not a good idea to just wait.

Especially after he sat down, he could feel the slight vibration from the ground under his feet, indicating that the big house was moving on its own.

It was a bit strange.

If he hadn't known that all human beings were extremely united now and there was no treason, he would have thought that he was ambushed.

Chen Feng waited for a few more minutes, but still didn't see Ou Qinglan. He tried to find her through the personal communication system, but there was no signal!

He couldn't sit still.

Ignoring the girl's entanglement, he stood up and walked to the door of the metal hall, and pressed his palm on the card of the Morning Breeze system on his waist.

Then, he saw a large building getting closer and closer in front of him.

And the seven huge projection logos of the Institute of Life Sciences above the buildings.

He was immediately horrified and exploded on the spot.

"Oh my God! Isn't Ou Qinglan from the School of Materials Science? Why did you bring me to the School of Life Sciences? Who are you? What do you want to do? Slice me?"
