Chapter 78 Chapter 078

T/N: Thank you Badger, anon, J.L., Annie, and Butter, for supporting another 4 extra releases this week. Also, to those readers who commented and didn’t receive a reply, I’ve read through them all and agree – the queen, Yun/Chi folks deserve a faceslap…

-k

Yun Changsheng was surprised to hear Qin Shuang say this.

The shock Yun Xingze brought to him today was so great that he suspected that he was dreaming.

First, the person who liked Yun Xingze became the heir, then the queen visited the hospital in person, and now the director of the Mecha Research Institute…

Yun Changsheng carefully opened the door, looked inside, and looked at the four or five extraordinary people gathered around the medical cabin discussing countermeasures.

Eugene frowned and said seriously, “The situation when I cut my glands before was not as serious. Xingze’s wound is too deep, and it may take a long time to heal.”

Ming Xiao released a long sigh. “What a pity, I thought he could come back to the research institute right away…”

Yun Changsheng and Qin Shuang were both surprised.

Yun Xingze actually entered the Imperial Mecha Research Institute!

“We have to find a way to make Xingze recover quickly,” Jin Xuan looked at Yun Xingze with distress in her eyes. “I’m still waiting for him to officially become a member of the research institute.”

Although Yun Xingze has been using their labs to run experiments, he is not yet a formal scientific researcher. Ever since they learned that Yun Xingze had mastered the mental power amplifier technology, Jin Xuan had always wanted to give him an official position.

When Yun Changsheng and Qin Shuang heard these words, they immediately realized that Yun Xingze was an intern who had just entered the research institute and had not yet become a regular member.

“I know the dean of the Institute of Biological Research, and have already sent him a message.” Cheng Yuan said at this time. “He promised that he would help us research gland recovery, and Xingze will definitely get better.”

Hearing this, the two people outside the door felt that Cheng Yuan was a very noble person, and Xingze was also very capable.

Otherwise, how could the dean of the dignified Imperial Mecha Research Institute care so much about an intern?

Cheng Yuan and others have noticed Yun Changsheng. While they are more self-restrained by nature, they are also indifferent to this pair of parents.

Yun Changsheng walked inside, and nodded at Cheng Yuan with a smile. “Hello, Dean Cheng Yuan, I have always admired you. It is Xingze’s honor for you to care so much about him.”

Cheng Yuan and others could see that Yun Changsheng didn’t know Yun Xingze’s ability at all, and didn’t know what he meant to the research institute.

They looked down on such parents, who don’t care about their son and just want to marry him off.

“It’s our luck to have him.”

After Cheng Yuan finished speaking, he turned to leave his contact information with the hospital, and expressed his willingness to provide help.

He is also a legendary figure in the empire. Naturally, the hospital did not dare to neglect him. They quickly promised that if Yun Xingze’s condition improved, they would inform the research institute as soon as possible.

Cheng Yuan and others were relieved.

When they were about to leave, Yun Changsheng hurriedly followed and asked, “President Cheng, what is Xingze’s main job in the research institute? Can he learn a lot?”

Yun Changsheng was very concerned whether Yun Xingze could provide secrets from the research institute for their Yun family.

The people in the research institute are all smart people, and his intentions were seen through in an instant.

Cheng Yuan did not speak, and Jin Xuan stepped in politely, “Mr. Yun, any information from the research institute is confidential. It is better for you not to ask such questions.”

Qin Shuang next to him asked earnestly, “Then when will Xingze be able to become a formal researcher?”

Cheng Yuan glanced at Qin Shuang calmly, and suddenly said with a smile: “If the glands hadn’t been cut… he should have been ‘formalized’ today.”

After replying, several people in the scientific research institute ignored the Yun family and left directly. to the hospital.

In Yun Changsheng and Qin Shuang ears, Cheng Yuan’s words were nothing short of biting sarcasm.

Qin Shuang suddenly remembered what she said to Yun Xingze at this moment. “Unless you can find someone with a higher identity than Chi Yu, or enter the Mecha Research Institute, you must be engaged to Chi Yu.”

And in such a short period of time, Yun Xingze has done both.

But he was forced by the Yun family, and had to cut off his glands and fell into a coma.

He obviously had a bright future, but he could only choose to resist in this way.

The Xinghai school team’s attention to Yun Xingze and the personal visit of the dean of the Imperial Mecha Research Institute have all proved to Qin Shuang that the value of omegas is not reflected in marriage. At least, Yun Xingze’s value was not.

Qin Shuang’s eyes flashed with guilt and regret. She regretted that she had not discovered Yun Xingze’s ability earlier, and regretted that she had never understood this truth. Seeing Qin Shuang’s lost expression, Yun Changsheng comforted: “Don’t worry, Xingze will definitely wake up. Since he has become an intern in the research institute, there is still hope for our Yun family.”

Worried, she replied, “But you said you cut ties with him…”

“That, wasn’t I joking?!” Yun Changsheng said immediately. “Xingze definitely won’t take it seriously.”

Thinking of Yun Xingze becoming an intern at the research institute, Yun Changsheng felt relieved and couldn’t help but be overjoyed.

After all, it is definitely a lot easier to get news after he enters the research institute.

So, Yun Changsheng smiled while fantasizing: “If he changes back to an omega, he will marry into the royal family. If he can’t change back, it’s not bad if he stays in the scientific research institute. By the way, you say, if Xingxing becomes a formal member, will he be able to inquire news about the mental power amplifier?”

“It’s not that simple.” Qin Shuang frowned, disagreeing with Yun Changsheng’s words. “He’s barely touched mecha since he was a kid, and we don’t know what he’s responsible for in the scientific research institute. It will be hard to get access to the secrets of the mental power amplifier…”

Yun Changsheng said expectantly, “It’ll be better than the Chi family anyway. Let’s just wait for Xingze to wake up.”

—–

Yun Xingze was in a coma for a whole week.

It took much longer than the doctors expected, long enough to be abnormal.

During the coma, Yun Xingze kept having various dreams in his mind.

Most of these dreams are related to the plot of the novel, and the person he dreams of the most is…

Luo Wenchuan.

Yun Xingze himself did not know how long he had been in a coma.

When he woke up, he opened his eyes and saw a whitish ceiling.

The windows of the ward are switched to blackout mode. The room is dimly lit, but it is vaguely recognizable that it is morning.

Yun Xingze originally thought that the moment he woke up would be very uncomfortable, but to his surprise, he seemed to have just slept for a while. When he sat up, he felt full of strength in his limbs.

It can even be felt that his physical functions are stronger in all aspects than before.

Yun Xingze touched the gland subconsciously. There was a scar leftover, but no sensation of the original gland.

He seems to have…

Completely turned into a beta.

The hospital’s system quickly detected Yun Xingze’s awakening.

Several doctors in white coats rushed in with eagerness on their faces. The moment they saw Yun Xingze, they showed joyful expressions.

“It’s great, great, you finally woke up!”

“If you don’t wake up again, the queen will probably peel our skins.”

“Thank god…”

Seeing everyone’s terrified and relieved expressions Yun Xingze was confused.

He scratched his head and asked, “Have I… slept for a long time?”

“It’s been a week. A whole week!” The dean was so excited that he almost burst into tears. “People from the royal family question us every day why you were in a coma after cutting your glands for so long. But we don’t know the problem either!”

Yun Xingze was incredulous, why did he sleep for so long?

Does it have something to do with the plot change?

The dean turned his head and said to the nurses, “Quickly examine the second princess!”

Yun Xingze looked at the doctor in shock. “What second princess? What are you talking about?!”

“What second princess?” The dean smiled with an “I understand” expression. “Not engaged yet? It’s okay, it’s a matter of time anyway.”

Yun Xingze felt a bit awkward, wanting to explain, but he didn’t know what to say.

Of course, even if he explained, the dean would only take it as a joke.

After all, according to the queen’s attitude of inquiring about Yun Xingze’s condition every day, who would believe that he is not the second prince’s future partner?

“Everything is normal.” The nurse reported after the test.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to discuss the next treatment plan, mainly around the theme of “how to restore Yun Xingze’s glands”.

“You’re fine, I’m so happy.” The nurse said next to Yun Xingze. He could tell she was sincerely happy for him from her tone. “Cutting your gland has become a hot search on major platforms, and even the Alliance is also hotly talking about this matter. Everyone says that you are a hero amongst omegas.”

Yun Xingze was stunned. There was an unreal feeling in his heart.

His original intention to cut his gland was just to protect himself, and at the same time to express his dissatisfaction with the forced marriage.

The ones forcing the marriage are not only the Yun and Chi family members, but also to those who made the social rules and laws.

Not long after Yun Xingze came to this world, apart from Luo Wenchuan, he had no sense of belonging to anyone or anything.

Of course, part of this was because the Yun family left him in the cold, but it was more because he felt he didn’t belong to this world.

Therefore, he never wanted to be an omega hero.

He never thought that this incident would cause such a big stir…

When he heard the news of Yun Xingze’s awakening, the Yun family was the first to arrive.

“Xingxing, you’re finally awake!” Yun Changsheng rushed into the ward, sat beside Yun Xingze, and grabbed his hand. “Do you know how worried we are about you these past few days…”

Qin Shuang was also concerned as she looked at Yun Xingze. “How are you feeling? Are you still feeling well?”

Yun Xingze felt that the two of them were behaving strangely.

After he cut his glands, the Yun family should give up on him.

How can they be so eager?

Yun Xingze was uncomfortable after receiving Yun Changsheng and Qin Shuang’s greetings.

“Brother, you are amazing!” Yun Wu cut an apple and handed it to Yun Xingze as he spoke. “I heard from Dad, you entered the Mecha Research Institute as an intern, and even Dean Cheng came to see you…”

Yun Changsheng glared at Yun Wu and scolded in a low voice, “Are you an idiot, how can you say such a thing casually? Can you learn from your brother and be a little calmer!”

Although Yun Xingze is only an intern, it was a great joy for the Yun family.

Seeing the family’s reaction, he realized that his connection with the Imperial Mecha Research Institute that had been discovered.

But it seems that Cheng Yuan didn’t tell him about his research on mental power amplifier.

Yun Xingze took a bite of the apple and said “thank you” to Yun Wu.

“Dad thought about it, and it’s true that dad did something wrong before.” Yun Changsheng’s tone was amiable, showing the concern he had never had before. “Xingxing, no matter what you want to do in the future, dad will support you!”

“Your support, do I need it?” Yun Xingze looked at him and sneered. “Didn’t you say you cut off our father-son relationship, Yun Changsheng?”

Before, if Yun Xingze dared to speak to Yun Changsheng with such an attitude, he would definitely be scolded.

But now, Yun Changsheng didn’t dare to say anything to him. After a few dry laughs, he said, “Xingxing, what I said at the time was angry talk. How could I cut off ties with you? We are father and son. I care about you…”

Yun Xingze raised his eyebrows and mocked: “When have you ever cared about me?”

Yun Changsheng hurriedly took out a check1cheque for British spelling folks, e.g., UK, Canada and handed it to Yun Xingze. “Dad knows that you are angry. This check is my compensation to you, and I hope you will accept…”

The check had a series of zeros written on it.

“You accept it, Xingxing.” Yun Changsheng stuffed the check into Yun Xingze’s hand.

Yun Xingze threw the check aside, raised his head and said to the dean, “I’m a little tired, let them go out.”

Hearing him speaking, the dean didn’t dare neglect him, and drove Yun Changsheng and the others out. Before leaving, Yun Changsheng was still shouting at Yun Xingze: “Not satisfied with the number on the check? Then fill in the number yourself…”

The dean rolled his eyes. As the future princess, will he lack this little bit of money?

His dad really needs a kick in the ass.

Progress for add’l releases are tracked on my ko-fi page.

 Sitting in the medical cabin, Yun Xingze thought about what to do next.

After cutting his glands, his physical strength will definitely rise, which is beneficial to using mecha.

Based on the date, the NCLM quarterfinals should have ended.

Yun Xingze turned on his optical brain to inquire about the news of the competition. First, he was relieved to see that Xinghai Academy won the quarter-finals, creating history in recent years.

However, it was also said in the news that without Yun Xingze, Oriel came on as a substitute. It was very difficult for Xinghai Academy to win, and it was basically impossible for them to win the next game.

So, Yun Xingze immediately asked the doctor on the side: “Doctor, can I return to the NCLM arena?”

“I’m afraid not.” The doctor replied. “Although your wound is fine, we still need to observe your physical condition some more. The organizer will definitely not allow you to compete so soon. You shouldn’t think about returning to Noah Star so soon.”

Yun Xingze wanted to communicate with Luo Wenchuan, but he thought that the other party should be training, so he decided not to disturb him first, and sent him a message.

Thinking that he might not be able to see Luo Wenchuan, Yun Xingze’s eyes flashed with disappointment.

The dean also said to Yun Xingze: “Xingze, the queen will be here soon. She said that she will bring you the best health care products, as well as various instruments that are good for gland recovery… During this time, you can rest assured and take care of your glands.”

“You guys go out first.” Yun Xingze pursed his lips and said. “I want to be alone for a while.”

The doctors and nurses filed out, leaving Yun Xingze alone.

He came out of the medical cabin and felt that the room was dark and dull, so he walked over to the window and turned off blackout mode.

The next second, the sun shone in from outside.

When Yun Xingze’s eyes spied the street outside the hospital, he was suddenly stunned.

On the street outside the hospital, many people were sitting on curbs or on the lawn beside the road.

Most of them were omegas, holding various signs, solemnly and silently protesting against the marriage law.

From a distance, those slogans made Yun Xingze feel a little uncomfortable

[Marriage is my choice, not an obligation.]

[My glands are not an alpha’s personal wealth.]

[Apart from getting married, in fact, I can do a lot of things.]

[…]

Omegas have always been known for their gentle dispositions, so most of their slogans are peaceful without harsh words.

But under the sun, these slogans are a bit difficult to take in directly.

Like a bunch of unknown flowers, blooming in the steaming heat of summer.

They have the power to penetrate the heart.

Seeing Yun Xingze’s window unblocked, the people below all showed happy eyes. But they still didn’t make noise, just quietly waving the sign in their hands.

Yun Xingze looked at the crowd. The youngest omega looked like a middle school student. But the slogan in his hand is very emotional:

[When I grow up, I want to marry the person I like.]

The middle school student saw Yun Xingze standing by the window, because he was not tall, he jumped up and waved at him.

Yun Xingze couldn’t help raising the corners of his lips, but his eyes were sour.

He should have enjoyed his youth in the classroom.

In addition to young omegas, there are also many middle-aged people among them. Their slogans are not as emotional as young people, but they are all defending the interests of omegas.

In fact, most of the middle-aged omegas are married, and the pheromone matching mechanism does not affect them.

But they still chose to stand up for future generations.

They can’t do anything for Yun Xingze. They can only use this way to express their respect for Yun Xingze and fight against the marriage law of the empire.

It can be said that Yun Xingze’s action of cutting the gland is the trigger for this protest.

Yun Xingze didn’t know how long and how widespread their protests were.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of responsibility in his heart.

Yun Xingze tightened his fingers, took a deep breath, and made an unprecedented decision in his heart.

This decision was so bold that he was taken aback.

However, he knew that he didn’t have much time. He had to act now to prevent more omegas from becoming victims.

After a minute.

Yun Xingze changed his hospital gown, opened the door of the ward, and walked out directly.

The doctors and nurses outside the door were startled and hurriedly asked him where he was going.

“Noah Star.” Yun Xingze said calmly.

“Yun Xingze, the queen will be here soon!” the dean said anxiously. “Don’t make trouble, just stay in the ward to take care of your glands…”

Although everyone was anxious, Yun Xingze had a special status, and they also didn’t dare stop him.

“Then tell her, keep the health supplements for herself,” Yun Xingze replied without looking back. “My glands are already broken, and I don’t want to grow another one. I’m really sorry.”

Under the surprised eyes of everyone, Yun Xingze walked into the elevator. At the same time, he contacted Dean Cheng Yuan and asked him to send an aircraft to pick him up back to Noah Star.

Cheng Yuan was overjoyed to see Yun Xingze. “Don’t worry, the aircraft is already waiting at the door, just waiting for you to wake up!”

Not long after, Yun Xingze got on the aircraft that Cheng Yuan prepared for him. He left the Imperial Capital Star and headed to the Mecha Research Institute.

As soon as Yun Xingze arrived at the research institute, he was warmly welcomed by everyone.

Cheng Yuan handed him a large bouquet of flowers and went up to hug him.

“You’re finally back.”

Jin Xuan was so excited that she almost cried, and murmured, “It’s good if you’re fine, we’ve been waiting for too long.”

Yun Xingze teased back: “So exaggerated?”

“You don’t know how long we have been studying your black box and that pile of scrap manuscripts.” Mingxiao began to the bitterness in his heard. “But we really can’t understand it. We haven’t made any progress after so long…”

Cheng Yuan asked Yun Xingze: “What are your plans next?”

“My body is still under observation, so I can’t compete for the time being.” Yun Xingze replied. “My next plan is… to invent a new type of mecha.”

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this.

After all, Cheng Yuan is the father of the newest mechas and created many new technologies. Yet Yun Xingze dared make such a bold claim in front of him.

Some people who didn’t understand Yun Xingze’s ability may think he is arrogant, but those who do are surprised, but didn’t doubt him.

“A new type of mecha, to be combined with the mental power amplifier?” Cheng Yuan asked.

“Yes, I want this mecha to become a mecha that everyone can drive.” Yun Xingze said slowly. “This way, the mecha industry will not be monopolized by alphas.”

Everyone immediately respected Yun Xingze.

Eugene looked at him blankly. His eyes flickered slightly, and after a while he said excitedly: “That’s great! I’ve wanted to experience the feeling of driving a mecha for a long time!”

If this new type of mecha is developed, it will become the seventh type of mecha in the entire interstellar universe.

And this is just the first step in Yun Xingze’s plan.

“Then let’s start the experiment.” Cheng Yuan said to Yun Xingze. “We will do our best to help you. By the way… should we assign you a formal position first?”

“I don’t need it,” Yun Xingze replied. “I have my own plans next.”

Yun Xingze’s tone was firm and his eyes were calm, so Cheng Yuan did not continue to persuade him.

“Then let’s do a mental test first.” Jin Xuan said to him. “After all, your physical condition is different now, and the parameters of the experimental equipment also need to be adjusted.”

Yun Xingze nodded in agreement.

After sleeping for so long, he felt that his mental strength seemed to have improved a lot.

After a few minutes of testing, everyone saw that Yun Xingze’s mental power…

Has risen to S-level, and the progress bar reached 90%.

Everyone was stunned.

But in just one week, Yun Xingze’s spiritual power improved from A+ to S+? !

Is the effect of cutting the gland so exaggerated?

“This, how is this possible…” Eugene was stunned. “When I cut my gland, although my strength improved, it did not improve so quickly…”

Then, Yun Xingze also tested his physical strength out of curiosity. It also rose to S+.

That is to say, he is now a standard S+ level mech fighter.

“Oh my god, your progress is too terrifying,” Ming Xiao was dumbfounded. “If you return to the NCLM arena now, I don’t know how many people you can beat!”

Cheng Yuan couldn’t help but whispered to Jin Xuan: “He cut his glands, so why does it seem like he did something1开了挂 – used when a person gets a relatively amazing result, and because it is so incredible, that people think that it is obtained by cheating?”

Yun Xingze was not idle after the inspection, and began to work on a new type of neural connector.

Jin Xuan asked with anticipation: “Boss, can you tell us how much the amplification factor can reach this time?”

The last time the factor was 2.61, which has shocked many people.

“A little higher than last time.” Yun Xingze said casually.

“How much is a little taller?” Mingxiao asked curiously. “2.7? Or 2.75?”

In the eyes of everyone’s expectations, Yun Xingze made a random simulation on the light brain. He then looked at them and replied: ” 4.1 or above.”

As soon as these words came out, the huge laboratory fell into a strange silence.

After a while, Jin Xuan looked at the busy Yun Xingze, and said to Cheng Yuan, “I don’t think he did something.”

Cheng Yuan looked at Jin Xuan in a trance.

Jin Xuan continued: “Yun Xingze… himself is a cheat.”

Kinda feel sorry for those research institute folks. It’s like they’re struggling to finish college/university, but YXZ is already working on a doctoral thesis.
