Mou Xuan returned to the temporary research laboratory again with a full load of rare earth metals.
"Mr. Kong, I've brought the stuff to you! This time we must stand up!" Mou Xuan's voice was loud and clear, like a salesman who was full of energy.
Scientist Kong's originally drooping eyelids suddenly perked up, as if he were having a last burst of energy.
He rushed over, staring at the metal with shining eyes, wishing he could just pounce on it and take a bite: "Okay! With these, we can make a big move!"
Engineer Ren also rubbed his hands and came over excitedly. He already had a lot of ideas in his mind and was just waiting for the raw materials to arrive.
In the research laboratory, the originally somewhat sluggish atmosphere was instantly swept away, and replaced by a tense yet hopeful atmosphere.
"Hurry up and get moving! Try to break through the bottleneck as soon as possible!" As soon as Scientist Kong gave the order, everyone immediately took their positions and devoted themselves to the intense research and development work.
However, ideals are full, but reality is skinny.
"Bang!" A loud noise broke the tense and orderly rhythm in the laboratory.
Experimenter Yi was seen standing in front of a pile of instruments emitting black smoke, with a look of horror on his face, not knowing what to do.
"I...I didn't mean it!" he explained stutteringly.
Scientist Kong's face instantly turned black as the bottom of a pot. He roared, "Yi Chen! What have you done?! Do you know how important this equipment is?!"
Yi Chen lowered his head and dared not say a word.
"You are a guy who is always causing trouble but can't do anything for you! I was so blind that I hired you in the first place!" Scientist Kong was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him, wishing he could eat him alive.
"Mr. Kong, don't be angry. I... I really didn't mean it." Yi Chen's voice became smaller and smaller, almost inaudible.
"It wasn't intentional? That's all you can say with just 'it wasn't intentional'? Do you know how much effort we put into this experiment?!" Scientist Kong pointed at his nose and cursed.
Upon seeing this, Engineer Ren hurried over to mediate: "Mr. Kong, calm down. It's useless to be angry now. You should think of a way to make amends."
"Repair? How to remedy it? This equipment is scrapped, how can we repair it?!" Scientist Kong was so angry that his voice trembled.
The atmosphere in the entire laboratory instantly dropped to freezing point.
Everyone held their breath, not daring to breathe.
At this moment, a hand gently placed on Scientist Kong's shoulder.
"Mr. Kong, calm down and listen to me first..." Mou Xuan's voice was not loud, but it carried a convincing power.
Mou Xuan patted Scientist Kong on the shoulder, signaling him with his eyes to calm down, then turned to Yi Chen. There was no anger on his face, but instead a gentle smile.
"Yi Chen, this mistake is indeed big, but everyone makes mistakes sometimes. The key is that we have to learn from our mistakes and not make them again next time." Mou Xuan's voice was not loud, but it was like a warm current that instantly dispelled the cold atmosphere in the laboratory.
"Well, write a detailed report on this accident, reflect deeply on it, and strive to make zero mistakes in the future! What do you think?"
"Okay!" Engineer Ren was the first to respond, and others nodded in agreement.
Yi Chen suddenly raised his head, which had been lowered. He didn't expect that Mou Xuan not only did not blame him, but also gave him a chance to correct his mistake.
He choked up and said, "Brother Xuan, I...I will definitely be serious in the future and will never let you down!"
"Okay, stop fussing and clean up the debris on the ground quickly. We still have to continue working!" Mou Xuan smiled and patted his shoulder.
The originally depressing atmosphere was swept away, replaced by a relaxed and energetic atmosphere.
In the following period of time, Mou Xuan personally sat in the research laboratory, providing necessary help and support at any time.
Under his coordination, the scientific researchers each performed their duties and advanced the experimental progress in an orderly manner.
Time passed minute by minute, and finally, late one night, cheers broke out in the laboratory.
"Success! We succeeded!" Scientist Kong was so excited that he danced with joy, Engineer Ren also jumped up excitedly, and Yi Chen was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears.
Mou Xuan walked quickly to the experimental table and saw a silver metal device lying there quietly, emitting a faint light.
"Is this the prototype of the new defensive equipment we developed?" Mou Xuan asked with a hint of anticipation in his tone.
"That's right! The strength of this thing is absolutely amazing! When the time comes, we will equip our soldiers with it and the safety will be maximized!" Engineer Ren introduced excitedly.
Mou Xuan nodded with satisfaction, a proud smile on his face.
With this breakthrough, the alliance's strength will be greatly enhanced, and its hope of surviving the apocalypse will be greater.
"Okay! Let's have an extra meal for everyone tonight and celebrate properly!" Mou Xuan announced with a wave of his hand.
Warm cheers broke out in the laboratory again, and everyone was immersed in joy.
Just then, the door of the laboratory was pushed open.
"You succeeded? Really?!"
[Event occurred]
Chen Yao's voice, as clear as a lark, came from the door with irrepressible excitement.
Before she finished her words, she rushed in like a gust of wind, threw herself directly into Mou Xuan's arms, and hugged him tightly.
Mou Xuan only felt a warm and soft fragrance in his arms, and the tip of his nose was filled with the faint jasmine scent of Chen Yao's body. It was a familiar and reassuring smell to him.
