Watching Hua Tuo and the old Angel King discussing and envisioning the 'future development blueprint of the Angel Civilization,' Hua Zhen in the crowd kept shaking his head. Silver Blade-level weapons, in their eyes, were merely high-level weapons for mutual hacking. Wasn't this a waste of resources?
But after thinking about it, he felt relieved. The Second Prince Hua Tuo had only successfully created the Dark Sacred Silver Weapon three days ago, and then rushed back to Tiangong non-stop to celebrate the old geezer's birthday. In such a short time, how could he have thoroughly researched the Silver Blade-level weapon?
But then again... Hua Zhen ignored them, remaining calm on the surface, but inwardly frowning and thinking, To unleash the true power of the Silver Blade-level weapon, it can only be achieved with the cooperation of wormholes. But now the Palace City's wormhole technology is limited to teleportation. Even the simplest micro-wormhole transportation cannot be achieved. Hiss~ this is a headache...
Being in this strange world, Hua Zhen always felt an unease that his life was in the hands of others. He was very afraid of being discovered as a fake Third Prince, so much so that he was startled awake from his sleep several times. Only when he found himself still lying on the small bed in his bedroom did he wipe away a cold sweat. To be honest, this feeling of fear was very uncomfortable.
Because of this, Hua Zhen especially hoped to have a powerful life-saving skill, such as micro-wormhole transportation. After sorting out the explanations about it in his mind, he suddenly realized that this was Sun Wukong's Instant Transmission from Dragon Ball, and Namikaze Minato's Flying Thunder God from Naruto! A heaven-defying skill, wasn't it?
If he could learn it, then even if he was really discovered to be a fake prince, he could escape from here at any time, right?
But reality often doesn't go as planned. The Angel Civilization's technology is currently very 'backward,' at least compared to the advanced theoretical knowledge in Hua Zhen's mind.
Previously, he had vaguely mentioned the micro-wormhole transportation technology to the instructor who taught him theoretical knowledge, wanting to learn it in advance. But when he saw the instructor's confused face, he was also confused.
The Angel Civilization could even establish large wormhole bridges, but a person from the Scientific Research Council didn't even know about such a 'simple' technology as micro-wormhole transportation. How dare he be a tutor for the Tiangong's prince with this level? Are you kidding me?
Hua Zhen couldn't help but be anxious, because after the princes' adult genes were upgraded, they would be sent out of the Palace City for training. This was decided by the old Angel King a long time ago. When that time comes, if he leaves Tiangong, what if Hua Ye, that grandson, sends someone to deal with him?
Glancing at the Peacock Man with a gloomy face on the opposite side, Hua Zhen's small eyebrows furrowed even deeper. Don't tell me this Peacock Man might actually do this. Eight years to let me develop the micro-wormhole transportation technology myself... Isn't this nonsense...?
Hua Zhen knew himself very well. He knew his own level better than anyone else. In his previous life, after more than ten years of studying, he couldn't even get into a first-rate university. Now you want him to spend eight years to research wormhole transportation, such a high-end technology... Is that possible?
I know the working principle of an engine, but does that mean I can make an engine out of thin air? The further you go with technology, the harder it becomes. Without the corresponding knowledge reserves, wanting to achieve results is just a pipe dream, because there are too many things to consider.
"Third..."
Hua Zhen felt someone touch him but didn't care. I have seven or eight uses for wormholes in my mind, such as wormhole circuits, attacking with Silver Blades, the concealment techniques of super wormhole algorithms, Sacred Domain, and the most awesome Space-Time Mapping Technology…
And micro-wormhole transportation is the simplest one, and it's also what I need most right now. Damn it, if it really doesn't work, I'll just tell the old geezer about it. Although it's a bit of a pity, I can only rely on Tiangong's technology to help now...
"Tsk, what are you muttering about?" Looking at Gus behind him, Hua Zhen said with a dark face in a low voice.
Gus wiped a handful of cold sweat and said tremblingly, "Your... Your Highness, the Angel King is calling you..."
What… what?!
Hua Zhen's small face stiffened, and he turned his head creakingly to look over, just in time to meet Hua Que's gaze, who was sitting high on the throne, scaring him so much that a "fuck" almost blurted out.
"Third, I've been calling you for a long time, what are you thinking about?" The old Angel King's voice was calm, but Hua Zhen faintly felt a trace of dissatisfaction in it.
When did these two finish planning the blueprint?
The Second Prince had already returned to his side, looking at him with a smile. Hua Zhen wailed in his heart, he had been distracted at the worst possible time.
He didn't dare to delay any longer, quickly came to the center of the hall and stood properly. After bowing to Hua Que, he said cautiously, "Father... Father, I was just..."
The old Angel King frowned almost imperceptibly, interrupting him before he could finish speaking, "Third, do you know what you did wrong?"
This old geezer's face changes faster than the weather. He was so happy before because of the Dark Sacred Silver Weapon, but now his face is cold and his voice is full of majesty.
"Uh..." Hua Zhen rolled his eyes inwardly. Wasn't it just embarrassing you in front of so many people? Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't dare to show it: "I know, I shouldn't have been distracted when you called me..."
"Am I talking about this?"
"Huh?" If it's not this, then what could it be? Hua Zhen was a little confused.
Seeing his innocent look, the old Angel King was furious and slammed the armrest of the throne: "You're still pretending to be stupid with me? Two months ago, you little bastard, you went on a hunger strike and jumped into the lake, and you even said you didn't want to live anymore? The Palace City provides you with good food and drink, but you don't know how to cherish it. You're a prince, but you don't act like a prince. You're going against the heavens, aren't you!"
After a round of scolding, it could be said that the king's might shook the heavens, causing everyone to tremble with fear. It seemed the old Angel King was truly angered.
What he feared came to pass. Faced with his angry rebuke, Hua Zhen was so scared he almost wet himself. Who the hell is spreading rumors? Do they have nothing better to do? he thought, on the verge of tears.
Hua Tuo, in the distance, glanced at him in surprise and softly asked Miller, "Teacher, what Father said, could it be true?"
Miller smiled. "Indeed, that's right. There were a few close calls, but the little prince's personal guard saved him each time."
"Oh? But I don't think the Third would do something like that?"
"Who knows? Maybe he's just going through a rebellious phase."
"Heh, an interesting little fellow..."
While Hua Zhen was being scolded by the old Angel King, the little fatty Hua Xiong's eyes had narrowed into slits, his shoulders twitching. Anyone could see his gloating expression. Hehe, serves you right!
Hua Ye, who was in front of him, was already in a bad mood. Seeing him like this, he smacked him on the head, then ignored his aggrieved expression and looked at the smiling Second Prince Hua Tuo with a gloomy face.
"Your Highness doesn't need to be annoyed by today's events..." He Zheng's voice suddenly came.
"How can I not be annoyed? I wasted so much manpower and resources to build a divine statue for the old man, but I got nothing in the end. Not only that, but my Construction Department was snatched away by the Second. Damn it!" Hua Ye said through gritted teeth.
"The Construction Department being taken away is only temporary. Has Your Highness forgotten the task the Angel King gave you?" He Zheng's lips slightly lifted. "He asked you to cooperate with the Second Prince in searching for Dark Sacred Silver mines. I believe Your Highness understands the meaning behind that, right?"
"Huh?" After carefully considering He Zheng's words, Hua Ye's eyes suddenly lit up, and he chuckled. "I understand, I understand. I was temporarily blinded by anger. How could I not have thought of that sooner? Hehe..."
Originally, the old Angel King didn't want to scold Hua Zhen in front of so many people, as it was a family matter. But when he saw the little rascal looking so pitifully thin, he couldn't help himself.
Having him late in life, he naturally doted on him. So, to prevent similar situations from happening again, he had to teach the little brat a lesson.
"Tell me, why did you do this!"
"Gulp!"
Being stared at like that, Hua Zhen couldn't help but swallow, feeling a chill run down his spine. His mind was a mess. Am I supposed to tell this old geezer, 'Ah, you're talking about that? I just wanted to transmigrate back through this suicidal method!' If I really said that, death wouldn't be far away.
Hmm?
Just then, his mind in chaos, he suddenly paused, because he felt the gaze of Consort Xin Yao. The woman was standing there, looking at him with a worried expression, her beautiful eyes full of concern. Strangely enough, being watched by her like that, the fear in Hua Zhen's heart miraculously disappeared, and he calmed down.
Clenching his fists, calming the panic in his heart, Hua Zhen's mind raced, and he thought of an explanation. He took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked directly at the old Angel King on the throne, saying, "Father, your son thinks that Instructor Allen's level is limited. He can't teach me anything anymore!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people in the hall, who were either gloating or watching him with interest, were stunned. They all thought they had misheard. The person assigned to teach the prince the basics has a limited level? If these words came from someone else, they would be laughed to death.
"Third, do you know what you're saying?" Hua Que raised his eyebrows. "Allen's academic achievements are quite profound. He's more than qualified to be your enlightenment instructor for theoretical knowledge. You're saying he can't teach you?"
"Yes, Father. I asked him questions, and he couldn't answer them at all. He even told me to study steadily and not to think about things that are impossible to achieve!"
Looking at his serious little appearance, Hua Que found it a bit funny, but he still kept a straight face. "Don't tell me, you little rascal was just acting up because of this!"
"Yes! I just wanted to get your attention, Father, and then get you to judge!" Hua Zhen put on an angry expression.
"Haha..." Hua Que couldn't hold it in any longer and finally laughed, shaking his head and looking at him with interest. "Alright then, tell Father, how did Instructor Allen make you so angry?"
There's hope!
Hua Zhen felt relieved and reorganized his thoughts, saying, "There are many Wormhole Transportation devices like the Tiangong Ship's gate set up within the Palace City. It uses a built-in calculation system to analyze and decompose people into countless atoms, then inputs them into the wormhole. Finally, it rearranges the atoms to achieve the purpose of transporting people from one place to another, right, Father?"
"Oh? Not bad, Third Son, you even know this. And then?" Wormhole theory was already beyond the scope of enlightenment education. His ability to explain it surprised the old Angel King and made him feel gratified. His voice became gentler as he spoke.
"It was seeing this that made me think, if we implant the algorithms from the transportation device system into our Angel's Gene Engine, could we achieve the purpose of transporting ourselves without using the transportation device..."
Hua Zhen paused, then said with a gleam in his eyes, "Father, think about it. Two people are fighting, and one suddenly appears behind the other, catching him off guard and delivering a fatal... fatal..."
As he spoke, his voice grew softer and softer, and finally, he swallowed the rest of his words, pursing his lips and blinking at the old Angel King.
In his imagination, the old Angel King should have reacted like those characters often seen in novels, with a body-shaking jolt or a dumbfounded expression after hearing his 'original' idea. But now...
Apart from his eyes widening a bit and looking at him with a slightly surprised gaze, that was it. Besides the civilizations under their rule and those female Angels, the reactions of others were not much different from his, which made Hua Zhen somewhat dumbfounded.
Hey, hey, hey, this is micro-Wormhole Transportation technology!! Can't it attract you at all? Please give me the reaction you should have, like 'this son is definitely not a thing of the pool,' 'my son has the potential of a great emperor,' or something... Hua Zhen thought frantically.
The old Angel King looked at him for a long time, then suddenly laughed and turned to look at the Second Prince, Hua Tuo. "Second Son, if I remember correctly, you also mentioned the same point as the Third Son at the last millennial birthday, right?"
What... what the hell?!! Hua Zhen's whole body shook violently, thinking he had misheard. His little head turned sharply, and he looked at the Second Prince with a dumbfounded expression. This son...
Hua Tuo shifted his gaze from Hua Zhen and nodded slightly. "Yes, Father!"
Damn it!! He had proposed micro-Wormhole Transportation technology as early as a thousand years ago. How awesome is that? Hua Zhen thought, clicking his tongue inwardly.
But...
As if thinking of something, he took two steps forward and couldn't help but ask, "But Father, since Second Brother proposed this micro-Wormhole Transportation technology as early as a thousand years ago, why hasn't it been implemented yet?"
Hua Que was silent for a long time. After a long time, he sighed deeply. "It's not that we don't want to implement it, but because... we can't do it..."
"...Huh??"
