It was already very late when Gu Henzhi returned to his residence on the main star.
Even at night, the main star is still brightly lit.
When he returned to his residence and responded to the greetings of the butler robot, he suddenly noticed something was wrong. He raised his eyes and looked in the direction not far away. An elegant and slender figure was sitting on the sofa and looking at him with a smile. he.
"Why are you here?" Gu Henzhi's expression was full of surprise.
Hearing this, the smile on Rong Fengyi's face, who had been trying hard to keep a smile, suddenly showed some cracks. She picked up the teacup in front of her and snorted: "My son finally went home and saw everything. No one comes to see me, and they don’t even miss me at all. It seems that I have failed too much as a mother..."
Before the other party could finish speaking, Gu Henzhi sighed: "Did father tell you something?"
"Not entirely..."
Her Royal Highness the Queen, who was always elegant and dignified in front of outsiders, blinked her eyes and had no intention of confessing her husband. But the conversation changed: "I heard Si Qiong said that you wanted to ask me something. It was because you didn't contact me at this time, so I took the initiative to come to your door! As a mother, you should do this, Tsk tsk...I am really too kind!"
Rong Fengyi said, taking a sip of the hot tea in her hand, and then changed to a more comfortable position.
Of course, the real reason that made her choose to visit unexpectedly was not just that.
What she cares more about is asking, but according to her son's personality, she can't rush it.
"That guy is very fast." Gu Henzhi chuckled with unknown meaning and continued: "Then, will your kind mother tell me what I want to know?"
He took a step forward and sat across from him, and took the tea from the robot butler in a familiar manner.
Rong Fengyi, who knew her son's character well, snorted: "Since you want to ask, there is nothing I can't say, not to mention that it may be related to my future... ahem." Halfway through her words, she suddenly After realizing something, he coughed twice.
"The reason why Si Qiong asked you to ask me about that project is because my best friend before was the experimental subject of that project." Rong Fengyi said, her voice finally calmed down, her eyes filled with nostalgia and A touch of sadness. "Because of her, I have been following that experimental project almost all the time..."
Hearing this, Gu Henzhi's originally calm expression became more solemn.
"It was a study on whether mental power can be substantively realized. When it was first started, it was started to help people with strong mental powers but very weak bodies. My friend was one of the people who passed the screening and met the experimental requirements. . But later, many people seemed to see other hopes through this experimental project, such as making their mental power stronger, using the experimental results to fight against alien beasts, etc..."
The purpose of many technologies was very simple at the beginning. However, in the later practice, the original intention gradually changed and deviated from the original track. And that original intention has long been forgotten.
"She is the daughter of the person in charge of the project. In the beginning, the reason why that person conducted research in this area was because of her." Rong Fengyi said, her voice gradually slowing down.
That man was his neighbor. He had known each other since childhood, and since they were similar in age, they became best friends over time.
The other party has been in poor health since childhood, but his mental strength is much higher than that of the people around him. While many people were overwhelmed by the mental strength required to drive a mecha, she had already achieved the corresponding requirements effortlessly. But because driving a mecha requires extremely strong physical fitness, even so, she was not able to realize her dream of becoming a mecha pilot.
"As we grow older, while her mental power increases, her physical condition also becomes worse and worse. You should also know what it means to have corresponding mental power induction without royal blood. If this continues, All that awaits her is death. In order to solve her daughter's dilemma, her father, who was the project director at the time, started this brand new topic."
The mental force is partially separated from the shackles of the body shell, and the burden on the body is reduced at the expense of dispersing excess mental force. That was the original purpose of that project. Compressing and substantiating mental power can also solve the inconveniences in life caused by poor health.
However, as the research progressed, members of the project team had disagreements over the direction of the entire project.
Many people believe that the research on substantive spiritual power should not be limited to helping a small group of people. It can become an experimental project of great significance to the entire empire. Once successful, it can even protect the security of the empire and promote the development of mankind. Evolve, and they will also leave their mark in history!
"You also know that such research requires persuading mentally strong people to participate, and only one person is not enough. Apart from the huge funds required for the experiment itself, it is extremely difficult to obtain enough experimental subjects. Things happened. It happened that at this time, the then royal family heard the news."
And this is also the beginning of everything.
As the heir to the empire, Gu Henzhi could quickly react to what would happen next.
"The royal family chose to fund that project and persuade relevant personnel to participate in the experiment, on the condition that they master the direction of the project and obtain results?" Gu Henzhi asked rhetorically.
"Yes." Rong Fengyi nodded.
For a moment, she didn't know whether to say that her son was worthy of being so smart, or that he was worthy of being the heir to the empire, and that he knew this way of thinking very well.
She turned her gaze to the window: "At that time, although my friend's father was nominally the project director of the entire project, he no longer had the final say on many things. In addition, at that time, my friend's The situation has reached a very serious point. If we follow their experimental ideas and substantiate my friend's mental power, maybe even if she encounters misfortune in the end, she can survive in another way..."
"At that time, it was not surprising that as a father, he would agree after hearing this."
Gu Henzhi was silent.
Indeed, if it is the person closest to you, no matter what it takes, you will always want to give it a try.
"My contact with my friends has become very rare since the experiment officially started. But occasionally I have the opportunity to visit her once or twice. When I went to find her, I also met some people there. Those geniuses in the eyes of the world, those... people who have been sentenced to 'death' in a sense, they believe that as long as their spiritual power is still there, there is always hope of living."
"Those people are the main reason why the empire values this project!" Rong Fengyi suddenly turned her attention to her son: "So son, if you are really sure that you like that girl, and can be sure that she is related to this Regarding the project, you must be mentally prepared.”
Don’t worry, no cruelty!
