Chapter 74: The Technology of the Gewu Institute is Announced to the World!
When Ying Zheng's maniacal laughter subsided on the city wall.
Beneath the city wall.
Still deathly silent!
Zhang Fan stood in front of the scorched earth, his back to the smoke and fire.
He felt the heatwave and the countless fearful gazes, and nodded in satisfaction.
Showing off is over!
That's cool!
The C4 chip used nearly 200% of its own power to transfer the data.
After all, the power of black powder is far less than that of C4!
After a moment of secret smug satisfaction, Zhang Fan slowly turned around.
Under the breathless gaze of tens of thousands of people, he walked step by step toward the Mo family.
The crowd automatically parted to make way.
Zhang Fan walked up to the group of Mo family disciples who were slumped on the ground and stopped.
He looked down at Mo Feng with a smile on his face.
"Before, you said..."
Zhang Fan's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
"Has my Institute of Natural Sciences stolen the teachings of your Mohist school?"
boom!!!
These words broke Mo Feng's back!
He could no longer hold on, his knees buckled, and he collapsed to his knees with a thud!
Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
Those eyes that once burned with flames are now empty and filled with fear.
He trembled, his voice was hoarse, and every word was uttered with all his might.
"No...no..."
"It's...it's our Mohist school...utter nonsense..."
"I...I lost!"
Zhang Fan nodded noncommittally, his smile unchanged, and said calmly:
"Do you remember our bet?"
The bet...
Upon hearing these two words, Mo Feng's body suddenly stiffened!
then.
With a stiff posture, he slowly turned his head to look at his teacher.
Sumida!
Still standing amidst that mess, he looked as if he had aged twenty years in an instant.
now.
He slowly closed his eyes, his face showing a silent resignation.
The Mohist disciples around him all kept their heads down, not uttering a word, and the whole scene was filled with despair.
Some of the younger disciples couldn't help but shrug their shoulders, their eyes red-rimmed, and they cried silently.
Seeing this scene.
Mo Feng's heart was completely dead.
Blame yourself!
It's all because of my own ridiculous impulse!
This pushed the Mohist school's century-old foundation into an abyss of no return!
He collapsed to the ground, completely limp, as if all his strength had been drained.
He looked at Zhang Fan and read out the bet agreement with trembling hands.
"The Mohists... have lost."
"According to the bet..."
"All the blueprints for the mechanisms and systems inherited from the Mo family over a century are now under the jurisdiction of the Academy of Sciences!"
"We...all the descendants of the Mohist school, are at your disposal...at your mercy!"
When the last word was uttered, there was no light left in Mo Feng's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Fan smiled.
He shook his head and said casually, in a matter-of-fact tone:
"Your Mohist school's so-called century-old tradition?"
"I don't want to."
boom!!!
If the explosion just now destroyed the pride of the Mo family...
Now, Zhang Fan's words have completely shattered their souls!
don't want?
He actually... didn't like it?!
A bitter smile, more painful than crying, appeared on the lips of all the Mohist disciples.
yes……
In the face of a divine object that can summon heavenly thunder and move mountains and level the earth.
Their proud mechanical skills, their so-called century-old heritage...
What does it count for?
What a joke!
Mo Feng's face turned deathly pale.
Lost!
A complete and utter defeat!
A complete and utter defeat!
They lost so badly that even their last shred of dignity was trampled underfoot and crushed!
He felt a burning pain in his cheeks, more painful than being slapped dozens of times in public!
but!
A surge of resentment welled up in his heart again!
Why do we want to investigate things?
Is it really that difficult?
at the same time.
The people kneeling around them seemed to wake up from a nightmare, and one by one they stood up shakily.
Seeing the Mo family members' grief-stricken appearance, the tide of public opinion instantly turned!
"It's over! The Mohist school is completely finished this time!"
"I knew it! Fighting a Celestial Master? That's suicide!"
"Indeed! A Celestial Master is a Celestial Master; how could they possibly compare?"
"What a disgrace!"
Listening to the surrounding chatter, Zhang Fan pondered for a moment.
He slowly squatted down, ignoring Mo Feng's humiliated gaze.
Instead, he slowly reached out and took the large token from his waist.
He fiddled with the iron token in his hand and smiled.
then.
Zhang Fan's gaze swept over all the ashen-faced Mo family disciples, and he slowly spoke:
"From this day forward, the Mohist school will be utterly disgraced."
"I'm afraid I'll become a rat that everyone wants to beat."
Zhang Fan's voice was like a bucket of ice water poured over the hearts of all the Mo family members, chilling them to the bone.
The next second, his tone suddenly changed!
"but……"
"I can give you a chance."
Hearing that!
The Mohists, whether they were limp, weeping with their heads bowed, or utterly despondent...
At that moment, they all suddenly looked up!
All their eyes were fixed on Zhang Fan!
My breathing suddenly became heavy!
A faint spark rekindled in his eyes!
opportunity?
Do they... still have a chance?
Zhang Fan's smile remained unchanged, and the giant token in his hand twirled between his fingertips.
He stopped teasing him and continued:
"Your Mohists are skilled in investigating things and in the art of mechanisms; this is beyond doubt."
Upon hearing this, a complex expression flashed in the eyes of the Mo family members.
She should be proud to have gained the approval of this man in front of her.
But at this moment, they only felt bitterness.
However, Zhang Fan's next words struck them hard.
"But you've made a huge mistake!"
Zhang Fan's voice deepened, and his eyes sharpened.
"You... have restricted the investigation of things."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over each member of the Mohist school, and asked, word by word:
"You want to monopolize this art of investigating things, don't you?"
Upon hearing this, all the members of the Mohist school changed their expressions.
That's right!
monopoly!
This is the unspoken core of the Mohist tradition that has been passed down for hundreds of years!
They pride themselves on "universal love and non-aggression, benefiting all under heaven".
However, he kept the most essential mechanical techniques to himself and never passed them on to outsiders!
They walk the world, helping the weak and vulnerable.
But they never thought of passing on those skills that could change the fate of ordinary people to them!
This is the arrogance of the Mohists!
At this moment, Zhang Fan ruthlessly ripped off this fig leaf in front of the whole world!
"I……"
Mo Feng suddenly looked up, his lips moving as he instinctively tried to explain.
But when his gaze met Zhang Fan's eyes...
All the words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter a single one!
What can he say in his defense?
What could he say?
Because everything Zhang Fan said was true!
The Mo family members lowered their heads in shame once again.
They felt their cheeks burning even more than before!
Seeing the Mo family members speechless, Zhang Fan did not continue to attack them.
He changed the subject, saying calmly,
"From now on!"
Zhang Fan's voice echoed clearly in everyone's ears.
"Our Institute of Physics will disclose all its technologies to the world without reservation!"
"certainly……"
He added a sentence.
"Apart from those core technologies that can be used for military purposes."
