Chapter 69
69 A Mysterious Organization Bearing Everything
Xana Thomas’s eyes turned red, and she sniffled. She could not help but turn her head to wipe her tears away and said, “Stupid Braydon, you only know how to brag!”
Braydon Neal laughed. He never spoke empty words.
Joseph Thomas ran over from the distance and asked suspiciously, “Why are you crying? Bro, did you bully my sister?”
“It’s none of your business!” Xana glared at him.
“It’s your chairman who bullied her, not my young master!” Xandra Milton laughed softly.
“Damn it, these old fogeys must be tired of living. Sis, just you wait. I’ll go back today and kill those old fogeys!”
Preston’s little demon king definitely lived up to his name.
Joseph turned around and was about to go back to the Thomas family, ready to kill those old men.
He only had one sister, and he would kill anyone who dared to bully her!
Xana shouted, “Stop it! Don’t be so impatient! Didn’t you say you wanted to be Braydon’s disciple? He’s right here!”
“We’re all of the same age, so forget about acknowledging me as your master!”
Braydon had never accepted a disciple in his life, and he was of the same age as Joseph. It was better for them to be friends.
“Braydon bro, I want to learn martial arts from you!” Joseph said shamelessly.
He was a little nervous. In this era, ancient martial arts cultivation methods were all secrets that were not passed down to others.
Just like the Larson family’s Roaring Tiger Fist, it was passed down only to men and not women. It was passed down to the elders and not the young, showing its importance.
“It must be Freddie Yackley who incited you to come!” Braydon chuckled.
“Freddie bro didn’t tell me a single word about you!”
Joseph was furious. He had been friends with Freddie for twenty years, but he still kept things about Braydon from him.
Naturally, Freddie would not say much about Braydon.
He was the most powerful man in the northern territory. Everything about him was top secret and had never been made public to the outside world.
Previously, at Three Circles Entertainment Center, Joseph had seen Braydon admit that he was a warlord-level martial artist.
A warlord-level martial artist!
He was strong enough to become a general!
On the other hand, Joseph was only a beginner martial artist. The gap between them was obvious.
There was not a single warlord in the entire Preston.
In today’s modern society, ancient martial arts had declined to a sorry state. There was a lack of cultivation resources, and the practice of ancient martial arts was cut off. This made the number of martial artists increasingly scarce. The path of ancient martial arts was extremely difficult to walk.
Joseph was also helpless. The Thomas family’s ancient martial arts cultivation method was incomplete, so it took twice the effort to cultivate it but with half the result. It was very difficult for him to become a martial artist.
“Alright, come to the Neal family’s house to find me tonight if you have time!” It was more than enough for Braydon to guide him, a small warrior.
Joseph grinned. He knew that with the guidance of a warlord-level martial artist, he would definitely be able to make a breakthrough in his strength in a short period of time.
Xana was in charge of the research lab, and Colin Spades helped to transport the equipment.
As the sky turned dark, the largest research lab in Preston University’s scientific research building was established.
The laboratory on the second floor, which was specially approved by Zachariah Sloan, was 2000 square meters and took up almost half of the floor. It was equipped with the latest equipment, and the technicians of the Starbright Manufacturing company were debugging the equipment.
The A5-13 had been shipped over from Dawson Lablanc.
Xana was wearing the blue and white school uniform, which could hardly cover her small waist. Under the black short skirt, her long, fair legs were well-proportioned, and she was wearing sports shoes.
She was the person-in-charge of the research lab!
Colin did not leave. “Miss Xana, this will be a temporary research lab. I’ll start organizing people to build a gravity research institute tonight!”
“No need to trouble yourself!” Braydon entered.
Colin said, “Professor Neal, if you set up a research institute, the supporting equipment and the conditions there will be better. The environment is quiet, and no one will disturb you. It’s more suitable for research!”
Braydon stood with his hands behind his back and did not agree to the research institute.
That was because the research lab was in a large building, which was more convenient for him. He did not have to run back and forth.
Immediately after, Braydon asked Colin to transfer a group of people from the Starbright Manufacturing Research Institute to participate in the research of the anti-gravity device.
Colin did not expect the surprise to come so suddenly.
He did not dare to arrange for people to come earlier because he was afraid of making Braydon dissatisfied.
After all, it was easy for the people they planted to steal all the technology. By then, the Starbright Manufacturing company would have a huge advantage.
At the entrance of the research lab, an elegant middle-aged man appeared. Although he was wearing a military uniform, he said with a gentle expression, “There’s no need for that. I’ve prepared all the talents for your research lab!”
“Senior Colonel?”
Colin’s pupils contracted when he saw the symbol on the middle-aged man’s shoulder.
In other countries, he would be a Brigadier General!
Although the research lab had just been built, no one could enter without an access card. The person who had brought him in was the dean of Preston University, Zachariah Sloan.
Zachariah said enthusiastically, “Here, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Gunter Bell. He’s from the Institute of Science and Technology at the University of Aviation Engineering. This is Braydon…”
“I know. He’s the youngest dean-level professor in the history of Preston University. He created the first anti-gravity machine in the world!”
Gunter Bell strode forward, wanting to shake hands.
Braydon had his hands behind his back. He glanced at it and roughly guessed the purpose of his visit.
The appearance of the world’s first anti-gravity device in Preston University had caused a huge response outside the country.
Now that Gunter Bell had arrived and was wearing a formal military uniform, there was no need to say what it meant.
If the anti-gravity device could be developed rapidly, it would be more than just a necessity for the industry.
The military must also be paying special attention to it!
This was especially true for the air force. In the hundreds of countries around the world, not a single military aircraft was equipped with an anti-gravity device.
Their most advanced technology was the ejection technology and the experimental jet-propelled take-off method.
However, no one in the entire country had mastered the anti-gravity flight method!
Every country was developing high-end military technology, and missiles and aircraft were the most important direction of development for top countries.
At present, every country had an aircraft carrier. The take-off time of the carrier-based aircraft was particularly important!
Aircraft carriers traveled in the deep sea, and the deck was the only way for planes to take off and land. Currently, only one country had mastered the launch technology.
Even Hansworth had not mastered it yet. The country still used a sliding deck. If the take-off were to fail, the plane would crash, and people would die.
Also, the landing of the carrier-based aircraft required the landing of the deck!
In addition, there were too many carrier-based fighters and they had to take off in order. For the modern fighter jets that could easily fly at supersonic speeds, a second wasted on the battlefield would mean time wasted for the supersonic fighter jets which could fly hundreds of meters in a second!
The distance of a few kilometers could be covered in ten seconds.
Hence, every second was crucial.
If the fighter planes were equipped with anti-gravity devices, even if there were hundreds of aircraft, they could take off in an instant after activating the anti-gravity system. Whether it was defense or attack, the efficiency would be increased by several times.
Furthermore, if the aircrafts turned back and activated the anti-gravity system, they would land together!
Therefore, the military had to be part of the advancement of this technology. The military’s field was even larger. It could be applied not only to aircraft but also to land equipment, just like tanks!
Heavy tanks weighed tens of tons, which seriously affected their speed. If anti-gravity devices were installed to reduce the earth’s gravity, the speed would probably be doubled, and the car might even flip over!
