At first, Chi Yin was shocked, but then his expression slowly changed to panic.
When Jin Xuan finished speaking, the eyes of the audience seemed to be questioning him, making his hands and feet cold.
Yun Changsheng and Qin Shuang’s reactions were more intense than Chi Yin’s.
“Xingze, Xingze, he…he invented the mental power amplifier?!” Yun Changsheng said with great surprise, looking at Yun Xingze as if he was a stranger.
After a second, Yun Changsheng pinched himself hard. The pain let him realize that this was not a dream.
Qin Shuang’s hunch just now came true.
Yun Xingze not only entered the Mecha Research Institute, but his identity wasn’t an intern at all…
He is the “big guy” that Chi Yin talked about.
Chi Yin obviously realized this too, and his face flipped between red and white.
Even if he was beaten to death, he would never have imagined that the “big guy” he wanted to curry favor with during this period of time was actually Yun Xingze!
For Chi Yin, who looked down on the Yun family and saw Yun Xingze as a marriage tool, this was tantamount to a crisp slap in the face, making his ears ring and buzz.
Yun Changsheng was overjoyed, even his fingers were shaking.
However, the disdainful eyes of the researchers and the indifferent eyes of Yun Xingze seemed to douse him in cold water.
“Xingze, he should give the technology to the Yun family, right?” Yun Changsheng suppressed his excitement, swallowed, and asked Qin Shuang next to him nervously in a low voice. “After all, we are a family…”
Qin Shuang did not answer Yun Changsheng’s question. Instead she frowned slightly, and her expression not optimistic.
“Thank you all for participating in the press conference today, I’m Yun Xingze.” The teenager sat in the center position on stage, and stated flatly. The scars on his neck have faded a lot, but they are still eye-catching. “About the mental power amplifier, what questions do you still all have?”
“Yun Xingze, are you really the inventor of the amplifier?”
“Yes.”
“May I ask what materials are mainly used for this amplifier? Are they expensive?”
“Expensive.”
“Will the relevant technology be made public?”
This last question was of concern to everyone. The audience members present held their breaths, earnestly waiting for Yun Xingze’s answer.
Yun Xingze glanced at the reporter and replied calmly, “I don’t plan to make it public for the time being.”
The president of a mecha company couldn’t help but asked loudly, “Then will you cooperate with other companies, or will you only authorize this technology to the Yun family’s Changsheng Mecha Company?”
Yun Changsheng looked at Yun Xingze expectantly after hearing the question. He believed that this child would not disappoint him.
“There will be cooperation, but there are conditions.” Yun Xingze looked at everyone in the audience, and then looked at the live broadcast camera. “Currently, this technology patent is in my hands, I know many people want to get authorization, but…”
All the people on the scene and those watching the live broadcast waited with bated breath for Yun Xingze to reveal his conditions.
“I ask the Legislature repeal the ‘highly matched alpha and omega must get married’ regulation in the Marriage Act.”
This statement shocked the audience.
Everyone was frightened by Yun Xingze’s bold speech, staring at each other with big eyes.
“If the bill is not repealed,” Yun Xingze pursed his lips and said slowly. “I will never give this technology to anyone.”
Chi Yin glared at Yun Xingze. He didn’t expect this guy came for this purpose today!
Yun Changsheng hurriedly stood up and took the initiative to apologize to Yun Xingze: “Xingze, it’s your father’s fault for forcing the marriage. Father is sorry for you. Don’t be impulsive, don’t be impatient…”
The request for the repeal of the bill was undoubtedly opposing the Imperial family, and making himself an enemy of most alphas.
Although everyone present felt that Yun Xingze’s conditions were crazy, but the mental power amplifier was right in front of them, and they didn’t want this technology to be hidden.
So, they turned their attention to the other researchers on stage.
Chi Yin looked at Cheng Yuan and asked: “Dean Cheng, the Imperial Mecha Research Institute should contribute to the empire and provide all mecha technology to companies producing mecha and the army, why does Yun Xingze put forward such a condition? As an alpha, don’t forget your identity.”
Chi Yin thought to himself, Cheng Yuan would definitely stand on the side of them alphas.
Cheng Yuan looked at Chi Yin and said slowly: “Our scientific research institute supports Yun Xingze unconditionally.”
As soon as Cheng Yuan finished speaking, the other researchers also expressed their positions, announcing that they were standing on Yun Xingze’s side.
And most of these people are alphas.
Chi Yin didn’t expect to be slapped in the face again. His face became as black as the bottom of a pot.
“The purpose of this conference is not just to announce this technology,” Yun Xingze said calmly, looking at the crowd with mixed expressions. “What we want to do even more, is to fight for the rights of all omegas.”
Facing the crowd of stunned and questioning eyes, Yun Xingze continued: “I invented this mental power amplifier technology. I have been unfairly treated because of my identity as an omega, and I hope to take this opportunity to speak out for all omegas, even if I am no longer an omega.”
“I want to use my ability to tell everyone that the value of omegas is not reflected through marriage. The emergence of the spiritual power amplifier will also provide them with more possibilities.”
“Frankly, when I began developing the mental power amplifier, I did it for the sake of all omegas. I hope the Empire can re-examine the law, so that every omega has the right to choose their own life.”
Yun Xingze’s attitude was neither humble nor arrogant as he spoke. His logic is clear, and his words fully demonstrated his strong mentality and a mature beyond his age.
After speaking, the reporters’ flashing lights kept flashing, and the conference hall fell into a dead silence.
Most of the audience preset were alphas. After listening to Yun Xingze’s words, they didn’t know how to response for a while.
If it was someone else speaking, they would definitely be scolded by those at the scene.
However, the person speaking was Yun Xingze – the omega with the technology of the mental power amplifier in his hands.
He really proved his worth to everyone, punching those who looked down on omegas in the face.
The star network was immediately stunned by Yun Xingze’s speech.
In the beginning, most of those watching the live broadcast were alphas. There were only a few omegas who liked mechas.
And when Yun Xingze spoke for omega, more and more omegas poured into the live broadcast room.
They come from all walks of life. Most of them have no access to mechas, but they all understand the meaning of Yun Xingze’s actions and are excited about it.
“Yun Xingze is awesome!! The technology that those alphas is pursuing is created by an omega!”
“I hope all alphas can see this scene!”
“As an omega, I’m so proud of Yun Xingze.”
“I have tears in my eyes… I didn’t expect an omega’s voice to appear at the press conference.”
“Thank you Yun Xingze, thank you for research institute…”
At the press conference, Yun Xingze’s remarks have already caused some alphas to defect.
In the crowd, someone asked cautiously: “Actually, I have always opposed this bill… Can our company have the opportunity to cooperate with you?”
“I also think that bill is not good, in fact, I have always supported omegas… …”
Of course, many people also expressed doubts about the motives of Yun Xingze and the research institute.
Some people questioned: “Is this technology really invented by Yun Xingze? I suspect that this is the result of the combined Mecha Research Institute, but it is deliberately named as Yun Xingze’s to better engage in affirmative action…”
Cheng Yuan calmly replied: “The research institute has never participated in affirmative action before, and will not deliberately create lies.”
Several alphas were furious. They can’t accept an omega sitting at a high place, bossing them, and tried to belittle Yun Xingze’s credit.
“Isn’t it just a 2.5 times amplifier? Could it be that we can’t develop it without Yun Xingze?”
“That’s right, the marriage law is for fertility. This technology can always be developed in a few years.”
Jin Xuan easily cut them off: “Reminder, according to our current progress, without Yun Xingze, it will take at least ten years.”
An alpha said angrily: “Ten years is ten years. So what if it’s later. It’s that better than reducing the birth rate further?!”
Watching these hard-mouthed, stubborn people. Yun Xingze’s eyes flashed with disdain.
In the next second, he took out another black box and said to everyone, “The one I just showed you is the lowest level amplifier I have developed. I still have a finished product with an amplification factor of over 4.0…”
Before he finished speaking, The alphas who were still trying to belittle Yun Xingze just now fell silent.
After a while, someone yelled incredulously:
“Above 4.0? Is… is for this real?!”
“If Yun Xingze is really developed one, then he is a real genius! What is the concept of 4.0!”
“This is no longer a question of being 10 years ahead… From 2.5 to 4.0, the R&D difficulty is exponential, and it’s not an exaggeration to say that it will take more than half a century…”
Everyone stared at the black box in Yun Xingze’s hand.
It looks more ordinary than the one just now, but it represents the most advanced technology that all mecha companies want.
Advanced technology ahead by half a century!
Yun Xingze took out another design draft and threw it on the table, and said leisurely: “A physical strength enhancement system is also under development.”
Everyone: “…”
Yun Xingze said these words, not just for the audience at the press conference, but he was negotiating with the Imperial family.
He knew very well that the royal family must be watching this live broadcast.
Yun Xingze looked into the live broadcast camera and said calmly: “As long as the bill is not repealed, I will not disclose this technology.”
Face slapping, or rather, face punching time!

At this moment.
In the secret meeting room of the Imperial family.
The king, queen, and three princes and princesses are sitting in front of the screen and watching the live broadcast of the press conference.
At the beginning, when the mental power amplifier was revealed, the king and queen were shocked, because the progress of the Imperial Mecha Research Institute was far beyond their imagination.
When Yun Xingze appeared, shock and panic flashed in the queen’s eyes. She did not expect that Yun Xingze actually had such an identity!
If her act of letting Chi Yin force marriage is exposed…
The queen couldn’t help but turn her head to look at the king, swallowing her saliva, and feign calm. “I didn’t expect that Xiao Chuan’s eyes are so good. The person he likes has such a strong ability.”
As an omega, Princess Luo Di’s eyes also widened. “The big guy mentioned by the research institute… is actually an omega, and someone second brother likes?!”
She turned to look at Luo Wenchuan. “Second brother, why didn’t you say so!”
Her tone was filled with unmasked excitement. She could not wait to rush to the scene immediately to get to know Yun Xingze.
Luo Wenchuan folded his legs, calmly took a sip of the tea cup, and said slowly, “He didn’t let me say it.”
Although he spoke calmly, the corners of his lips could not be restrained from rising, and there was something in his eyes – uncontrollable pride, arrogance, and something that looked like… doting?
Luo Di was shocked. Her iceberg-like terrifying second brother actually showed a doting expression??
The shock this brought her was no less than the reveal of the mental power amplifier.
Afterwards, when Yun Xingze spoke for omegas, everyone was afraid to speak for a while.
The king looked at the screen and frowned.
During this time, the omegas’ opposition to the bill has been rising.
And Yun Xingze’s move will inevitably lead to stronger opposition.
Most of the barrages in the live broadcast room supported Yun Xingze’s voice, and more and more alphas turned their backs on the scene.
Through the virtual screen, Yun Xingze seemed to be looking straight at the king.
He’s not releasing technology, he’s negotiating with technology.
The options before the king were either:
Repeal the Act in order to gain access to technology;
Or to give up technology that was half a century ahead for the sake of fertility.
Looking at Yun Xingze’s deep and serious eyes on the screen, the king took a deep breath, and actually felt a trace of pressure from his eyes…
—–
Not long after the press conference.
The king immediately summoned his ministers and held an emergency meeting to collect everyone’s opinions.
To the king’s surprise, the number of ministers who supported the repeal of the bill exceeded the number of ministers who opposed it.
“Your Majesty, Yun Xingze’s technology is very important to the Empire, and must be used on our mechas as soon as possible.”
“Yes, although I supported increasing the fertility rate before, but the most important thing right now is this mental power amplification technology.”
” Please repeal the Act, Your Majesty.”
The king was lost in thought.
Luo Wenchuan, sitting on the side, raised his eyebrows, and seemed to be in a good mood.
At least this proves that Yun Xingze’s efforts have been successful.
At this time, a minister turned on his optical brain and said to the king: “Your Majesty, this matter has already made the headlines in the Alliance!”
Everyone turned on their optical brains to check.
Sure enough, Yun Xingze’s announcement of the mental power amplifier technology and for being a voice for omegas has already topped the top searches in the Alliance.
Clicking it open – the comment area was full of voices blaming the Empire and coveting Yun Xingze and his technology.
“The Empire actually has such a genius, but he was forced to marry? Absolutely ridiculous, let him come to the Alliance!”
“Yes, this kind of thing will not happen in the Alliance. How can such advanced technology stay in the backward Empire. ”
“My little brother1someone’s referencing YXZ. The “my” is similar to “my idol” is so handsome, and has such great skills. Come to the to Alliance, we’ll treat you better than the Empire where he can’t make a difference.”
“The Empire doesn’t deserve to have a talent of Yun Xingze’s level, please find a way to dig him out to the Alliance!”
When the ministers saw these comments, they immediately blew their beards with shocked eyes.
“Which person sitting in the back has the idea of hitting Yun Xingze?”
“Those Alliance people are still as shameless as always, why should we give Xingze to them?”
“What a joke, if we had known Yun Xingze’s abilities earlier, Chi Yin will never be allowed to do such a thing!”
Obviously, Yun Xingze has already been targeted by the Alliance.
So, a minister said to the king: “Your Majesty, we can’t sit still. The people from the Alliance will definitely find a way to poach Yun Xingze!”
The king pursed his lips tightly and frowned.
At first, he still didn’t want to repeal the bill. But now, the Alliance’s coveting of Yun Xingze made him greatly concerned.
As soon as the minister’s words were finished, someone received a communication from the Alliance, asking if they could ask for a copy of Yun Xingze’s information…
“Hang up!” The king glared at the minister. “Yun Xingze’s information is now considered first-class confidential information of the Empire, whoever dares give it out will die.”
The minister was so frightened that he immediately hung up the communication.
Luo Wenchuan watched the king’s face change. Resisting the urge to chuckle, he lowered his head slightly, hiding the ridicule that flashed in his eyes.
The king cleared his throat and said slowly: “I announce that the ‘high matching alphas and omegas must be combined” regulation in the Marriage Act is abolished.”
When the opposing ministers who wanted to keep the regulation heard this, they collectively showed shocked expressions, but they did not dare speak up.
The seriousness in the king’s eyes are enough to explain everything.
After the meeting, the ministers left one after another. In the hearts, they all knew the Empire was about the change.
In other words, the entire interstellar space is about to change.
For the first time in history, an omega has overturned a law on their own, and almost effortlessly.
The suppression of this absolute strength startled all the ministers and lawmakers.
After everyone left, the king looked at Luo Wenchuan and asked, “You seem to have a lot of patience today? Sitting and watching the entire meeting.”
“I don’t have much patience.” Luo Wenchuan raised his eyes to look at the king with a flat tone. “It’s just that there are still some things to deal with – regarding Chi Yin.”
Hearing his words, the king was relieved.
He turned on his optical brain to retrieve the information, and said to Luo Wenchuan, “The research institute reported Chi Yin to me not long ago, saying that he was suspected of leaking research secrets… I know Yun Xingze wants revenge, and must have asked Cheng Yuan to help report it. I will deal with him.”
Luo Wenchuan raised his eyebrows and asked, “How do you deal with him?”
“Remove his post and destroying the prestige of the Chi family.” The king replied.
Luo Wenchuan stood up, directly pulled up several pieces of information in his optical brain, and forwarded them to the king’s optical brain.
He said coldly: “About Chi Yin’s alleged bribery of businesses, private buying and selling of weapons, leaking military secrets… these high-level crimes, all the relevant evidence and materials are here. If it’s not enough, I can provide you with. more.”
The king was stunned.
“How can dismissal be enough? Let him go to the deserted Crete star belt, ravaged by star beasts.” Luo Wenchuan looked at the king and said word by word. “If the star beasts can’t be cleaned up, don’t come back.”
The Crete star belt is full of various SSS-level dangerous star beasts, and has always been a high-risk area that everyone in the Empire fears.
The king frowned. “The desolate Crete star belt is far away and the danger is high. If it needs to be guarded, a large number of troops will also need to be sent…”
“Then let him go alone.” Luo Wenchuan said leisurely. “Give General Chi Yin a chance to repent for his crimes. Otherwise, if these contents are spread out, I’m afraid it will cause public anger.”
In his calm tone, there was a bit of a fierce and mighty arrogance underneath.
The king stared at Luo Wenchuan – filled with a familiar and unfamiliar feeling.
After a long while, he slowly said to Luo Wenchuan:
“Yun Xingze wants Chi Yin to be disgraced, and you… this is making Chi Yin die.”
Letting Chi Yin go guard the desolate Crete star belt alone, is no different from killing him directly.
Luo Wenchuan hummed noncommittally. Taking a sip of tea from his cup, there, there was a bit of terrifying emotion in his eyes. After a while, he regained his calm and said, “Xingxing is very busy, so there are some things I will do for him. ”
Hmm… this should be the first time LWC calls or talks about YXZ with a nickname?
Aside, I wish YXZ gave LWC a nickname, like that “Wenwen” LWC mistook many chapters back.
