Fallen Chronicles

Chapter 223 Chapter 223: Undermining

Kael Technology generously showed them the production process of “Brand Weapons”, which is actually very simple and can be summarized in three steps.

First, enter the old world through “Dream Zero” and bring back the “master version” of the brand pattern to reality.

Then, the most important step, is where the experts in “ancient studies” come into play. They research the connections between different brands, arranging and combining these unknown brands to produce an “effective” set of brand suits.

Finally, the factory staff use nano-level ultra-high precision instruments to engrave and replicate the effective brand suits, eventually producing mass-producible sub-brands.

Through these three steps, Renji quickly understood why Kael Technology was so generous and confident.

After all, as the original source of the “Brands”, Dream Zero, as introduced by Tia earlier, serves as a banned network area, or the dark web, accessible only to a few companies permitted by the government.

In other words, other companies wanting to research brand technology can’t even touch the threshold.

The second threshold is this middle step. The prerequisite for mass-producing “sub-brands” is to understand the set and principles of the “master version” of the brands.

Previously, scholars from Sin City had raised doubts. After all, with the computing power of the Mechanical Alliance, shouldn’t they quickly find the right set using brute force methods?

However, the reality is that every combination must use the “master version” of the brands. Once the master version is used, it produces significant tainted miasma pollution. To ensure safety and stability, the cost of each combination experiment is enormous.

Even if cost is not a consideration, the “Brand’s” capacity to carry tainted miasma pollution is limited. After many attempts, Kael Technology concluded that each “Brand” can undergo a maximum of seven arrangement experiments per month. Exceeding this limit not only damages the brand but also triggers a serious pollution crisis.

Therefore, this is why “ancient studies” experts are so important.

Under the premise of enormous experimental costs and a strict limit on the number of experiments, each arrangement experiment is incredibly precious.

If there are scholars who can recognize a part of the brands through their knowledge of ancient studies, even if it’s just providing a vague direction for the combination, it would be equivalent to saving Kael Technology experimental costs in the billions, greatly enhancing efficiency.

This is why the following scene takes place.

The visit to Kael Technology, which started at five o’clock in the afternoon, continued until nine-thirty in the evening. After four and a half hours, the consultant group from Sin City returned to the VIP room where they started.

William, the previously introduced organizer of the exchange meeting and now standing at the front of the stage, looked at the consultants from Sin City in the VIP room. His gaze especially lingered on a few scholars who were attracted by the brand project. Despite having toured for several hours, they seemed even more energetic and were engaged in intense discussions.

William cleared his throat to draw the attention of the consultant group to himself. Then, with an extremely sincere expression, he earnestly said:

“Ladies and gentlemen, I understand that the so-called academic exchange between Sin City and the Mechanical Alliance has for some reason turned into an activity of mutual boasting and undermining each other. Today, I, William, on behalf of Kael Technology, hope that we can return academic exchange to its original essence.” 𝘭𝒾𝒷𝓇𝘦𝑎𝑑.𝒸ℴ𝓂

“Our invitation to the professors, scholars, and doctors from Sin City is genuine. We truly hope that you will accept employment with Kael Technology and become part of our company’s family, to jointly research brand technology. Kael Technology promises to allocate the maximum resources for you and strive to meet all your research-related demands and conditions.”

“Of course, we understand that deciding to work abroad is a significant decision that cannot be made in a moment. Therefore, we are giving you three days to consider. During these three days, Kael Technology will treat you as temporary employees, allowing you to experience life as part of the company. During this time, all internal company materials related to ‘brand technology’ will be open for you to freely browse and read.”

“After three days, if anyone among you is willing to accept a formal employment contract with Kael Technology, we will be honored and sincerely invite you to participate in the press conference we are preparing for that day. You will be a reviewer, a witness, and the first user of the ‘three-piece set’ of brand weapons.

After William’s speech, it evidently had a significant impact on the consultant group. Murmurs of discussion immediately arose in the VIP room, and from the expressions of the people, it was clear that Kael Technology’s move was truly unexpected.

The young man beside Renji also seemed astounded, continuously patting Renji’s shoulder.

“Goodness, is this for real? Brother Renji, it seems like Kael Technology is really going all out this time. Isn’t this too big a play? What is this, openly poaching people from our Sin City?”

“But weren’t we originally here as consultants?” Renji asked.

“Ah, but that was all just for show, right? Everyone thought it was just an excuse for Kael Technology to make us look bad. Who would have thought they were serious!”

“But, hmph!”

At this, Keyji let out a cold snort. Renji noticed that the young man’s face wasn’t really angry; it seemed more like he was amused.

Because

“Does Kael Technology really underestimate our scholars from Sin City? It is Sin City that nurtured us, and for everything we have today, we owe it to the graceful and beautiful City Lord. We live as Lady Lena’s people and die as Lady Lena’s dogs. Do they really think their tiny company can make us betray Sin City? Wishful thinking!”

Clearly, Keyji belonged to the group that was extremely loyal to Sin City, especially to their City Lord, feeling a strong sense of belonging. Therefore, he naturally assumed that other scholars would be just like him, unwavering in the face of Kael Technology’s invitation.

However, Renji, for the time being, did not question the young man’s description of Lena as “graceful and beautiful”. Focusing on the latter part, Renji glanced at the behavior of the scholars in the consultant group and shook his head.

“Brother, I somehow feel that the situation isn’t as optimistic as you think.”

“What do you mean?”

Upon hearing Renji’s words, Keyji was first puzzled, but then, following Renji’s gaze, he suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief.

Because he saw that William, the head of Kael Technology, had now approached the gray-haired old professor in the consultant group, who had been very noticeable during the earlier visit and seemed to be the leader.

Due to the distance, Keyji couldn’t hear what they were talking about, but just from the looks of it, the two seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation.
