Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

Seeing Adele's reaction, Xingji also vaguely understood that Li Ang was not deceiving others, and his mood became more relaxed.

"Then Chairman Li, can you tell me what your purpose is? I swear on the name of the Ubika family that I will not leak the following conversation to anyone." Xingji solemnly swore.

After looking at Elena, who had no reaction next to her and was about the same as a piece of wood, Xing Ji was very angry.

This stupid sister is hopeless. She was probably stupid during the experiment in Rhine Life.

After being poked twice by Xing Jiyou's elbow, Elena realized what she should say now,

"Oh...I also swear on the name of the Ubika family that I will not leak the conversation."

Fortunately, Elena didn't say, "Sister, why did you stab me?" Otherwise, Xingji would seriously consider whether to throw her back into the family and re-educate her.

Although the family's education method is ancient, Xingji has to admit that some of the courses in it are still useful.

"You don't need to be so serious...forget it, since you have all sworn an oath, I will tell you."

Li Ang was a little embarrassed by the serious reactions of the two sisters. He took a breath and continued to explain, "You have misunderstood one thing. I really value the Ubika family's collection of books because I want to find the same thing as you." Clues related to the source of astrological magic power.”

Hearing this, Xingji nodded secretly.

If it was for this purpose, it was indeed worthwhile for Li Ang to make the trip in person. What Xingji couldn't understand was why Li Ang would bring his wife and daughter with him.

"Besides that, I am mainly for the Astrology Association behind the Ubika family. Of course, the Astrology Association is just a springboard for me. My real goal is Rhine Life."

Hearing this, Elena, who is a member of Rhine Life and has a close relationship with the Astrology Association, couldn't help but ask, "Huh? Why Rhein Life? Does the Astrology Association have anything to do with Rhine Life?"

"It seems that I have almost forgotten what happened back then," Li Ang shook his head and asked, "Elena, do you know the full name of the Rhine Life General Administration?"

"It's Kristen Wright," Elena answered immediately. "Dr. Wright is one of the most famous scientists in Colombia. Many people in Rhine's life admire her very much."

Li Ang was noncommittal, "So, have you ever heard of Kristen Wright's parents?"

Elena was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

They admire Kristen because of her outstanding scientific level. They are not chasing stars. Why should they investigate Kristen's parents when they have nothing to do?

Xingji on the side frowned and said hesitantly, "Is it the Wrights who invented the aircraft? I seem to have seen their records somewhere?"

"Yes, it's the Wrights you know."

Li Ang confirmed Xingji's guess, and then explained, "You should have seen their records in the relevant records of the Astrology Association."

"The Wrights were the original inventors of aircraft and well-deserved authorities in that field. They were not satisfied with the flying altitude of 500 meters, so the Wrights set their sights on the starry sky above our heads."

Xingji, who was familiar with the urine properties of the Astrology Association, had a bad premonition when she heard it. Li Ang's explanation that followed also proved her idea.

"This action of the Wrights touches the interests of certain groups, yes, the Astrology Association. When people can touch the stars, the so-called sacredness of astrology will no longer exist, so the Astrology Association took action With all the power in his hands, he will criticize and discredit the Wrights’ research at all costs.”

"How could they do that?"

Elena was immediately furious after hearing the despicable behavior of the Astrology Association.

But Xingji was uncharacteristically silent. As a qualified astrologer, she could better understand the Astrology Association's approach.

The biggest difference between the two sisters was revealed at this moment.

Even if Xingji is currently having conflicts with her family, astrology and astrology have left an indelible mark on her life.

"You think this is all? No, this is just the beginning."

"Later, a major accident occurred during a test flight of the Wrights. They both lost their lives in the accident at the same time. What do you think the Astrology Association will do next?"

Elena thought for a while and then said cautiously, "Well... everyone is dead, so the Astrology Association shouldn't do anything else, right?"

Li Ang shook his head, seeming to be laughing at Elena's naivety.

Just when he was about to talk about the good things done by the Astrology Association, Xingji suddenly said, "No, the Image Association will take this opportunity to add insult to injury."

Under Elena's surprised gaze, Xingji said expressionlessly, "In order to prevent anyone from challenging the authority of astrology again, the Astrology Association will obliterate all the contributions of the Wrights, slander them from receiving honors, and focus on their life experiences. Dirty water will eventually nail these two overestimating people to the pillar of shame in history forever."

"...Yes, that's exactly what the Astrological Society did later."

Li Ang glanced at Xingji in surprise, but he didn't expect that she was actually an understanding person.

It seems that she was indeed trained as the heir of the Ubika family, otherwise it would not be so easy to follow the ideas of those astrologers.

“After the death of the Wrights, their public opinion changed 180 degrees. No one was willing to speak for these two private individuals. Some people even went to the place where the Wrights crashed to hold a large funeral. Even their funerals were disrupted. .....Although there is no evidence, this is most likely done by someone sent by the Astrology Association."

Otherwise, how could there be such deep hatred that would not even spare someone's funeral?

"At that time...Kristen didn't seem to be ten years old."

Originally, when the Wrights were still alive, what the Astrology Association did was already very excessive. After their death, the behavior of adding insult to injury made the Ubika sisters not sure what expressions they should show.

After a long while, Elena shivered hard and showed a somewhat forced smile, "I was just thinking, should I resign and find another company?"

If Xingji hadn't asked such a question, she wouldn't have known that her family had such a big feud with her immediate boss... If she continued to stay in Laiying's life, would she suddenly die one day? Evaporated?

"Oh, you don't have to worry about that. Ferdinand just told me this. He already knew about the relationship between you and the Astrology Association."

"Mentor? Then I'll be relieved."

Elena breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Ferdinand's name.

Although Ferdinand was very strict with her, he really couldn't fault her in other aspects.

Now that Ferdinand knows Elena's life experience, she doesn't have to worry about one day being evaporated by the commander-in-chief.

“That’s the relationship between the Astrology Society and Rheinland Life, and that’s what I want to take advantage of.”

"...I kind of figured it out."

Xingji rubbed his eyebrows and showed a slightly distressed expression.

The amount of information in Li Ang's words just now was too large, and she didn't know much about Rhine Life. She needed some time to digest what Li Ang wanted to express.

After being silent for several minutes, Xingji hesitated and said, "Chairman Li... did you just mean to warn us... not to get too involved with the Astrology Association?"

"It's not a warning, it's a discussion."

Li Ang shook his head, "My method... may have a certain impact on the Astrology Association, but if you don't agree, forget it. Ha... think carefully about the relationship between me and Rhine Life The origins are quite deep, and I have several other ways to achieve my goals.”

For example, the Ecology Department, the Structure Department, and Magellan, which has no news at all, are actually good entry points.

However, these are not as direct as the Astrology Association.

"It would be better to simply destroy the Astrology Association." Elena muttered softly.

After learning about the bad things the Astrology Association had done in the past, she now lost even the last bit of goodwill towards the Astrology Association.

There was only so much space in the car, and Elena's soliloquy fell into the ears of others.

Xingji gently knocked Elena on the head as punishment for what she said just now, and then she solemnly said to Li Ang, "I have no objection. The Astrology Association should indeed be thrown into the trash. Old things in the pile. In fact, even without any external intervention, it will be difficult for the Astrology Association to sustain itself. I am afraid that within a few years, the Astrology Association will collapse due to lack of funds."

When he saw the disappointed look in his father's eyes, Xingji's heart had actually cooled down a long time ago.

Now she was just following her old habits and blankly repeating the things that were engraved in her bones.

What is the future of astrology?The answer is no future.

Now that civilization has developed to the point where even ordinary people cannot be easily fooled, how many people can be deceived by astrology spells that have lost their power?

The Astrology Association has been dead for a long time. It is really a miracle that it can still survive until now.

"Then we...can this be considered an agreement?" Li Ang raised his eyebrows.

In the rearview mirror, Li Ang saw Xingji nodded slightly.

PS. I reviewed the Dream of Oz and Lone Star, and the Balrog incident was a mess. If these plots of Rhine Life were written together, this volume would probably be super long, at least the length of two volumes combined into one...

Chapter 6 Daily Work

1095/8/17

10:07 A.M.

Weather conditions: Sunny to cloudy

Rheinland Life Headquarters, Tremont, Colombia.

As the most well-known and probably the most comprehensive scientific group in Colombia, there is still an endless stream of visitors to Rhine Life today.

Some came to the Business Department to discuss cooperation, some tried to steal secrets and were thrown out by the Defense Department, and some came to participate in interviews. Of course, there were more employees working at Rheinland Life.

Energy Department, Structural Department, Originium Technology Application Department, Ecology Department, Engineering Department... In addition to the scientific inspection class where few people stay at the headquarters all year round, these five departments gather the entire Rhine Life, and even Talk about the entire Colombian elite.

At least one of the things Rheinland Life preached back then was actually achieved.

After abandoning the nauseating ethos of "independent research and independent project establishment" in Colombian academia, most scholars can find a place to display their talents in Rhine Life.

As the core of the entire Rheinland Life, it has the overall jurisdiction of the Components Department. This department has absolute control over all business and research of Rheinland Life, and has the highest level of authority and confidentiality. Almost no one knows the specific work content of this department. , even the directors of other departments know very little about this department.

In fact, this department should be regarded as someone’s private laboratory. She is the founder of Rhine Life, Kristen Wright.

This department, and even Rhine Life as a whole, was established from the beginning to achieve a certain goal in Kristen's heart.

Although the members of the General Component Section are conducting a lot of research under the leadership of Kristen, none of them can actually explain the purpose of their research.

There is only Kristen, who hides behind the scenes and secretly controls everything in the Components Department.

Even other departments of Rhine Life, their ongoing research has been secretly influenced by Kristen. The chaos that is beginning to appear in several departments of Rhein Life is also the result of Kristen's deliberate indulgence.

Very rarely, Kristen appeared in her office today.

In order to control the overall situation, Kristen had to sacrifice part of her precious scientific research time to process the data compiled from various departments.

The first thing Kristen saw was the news that Ferdinand had returned to Tremont City not long ago and met with military representatives.

After just one glance, Kristen lost interest and threw the report aside.

Ferdinand's actions are all under Kristen's control. Whether he is quietly dealing with the military or privately contacting foreign companies, Kristen has tangible evidence in her hands.

However, Ferdinand's actions were basically beneficial to Rhine's life and her plans, so Kristen turned a blind eye and allowed Ferdinand to flirt with those forces.

Sometimes, Kristen also feels that Ferdinand is a bit sad now. Is he now a businessman or a researcher?

Shaking her head, Kristen looked at the next report.

This was an application submitted to her by Parvis, the director of the Structural Department. It said that his chimerism experiment had made considerable progress and he was preparing to test a new treatment method. He came specifically to ask Kristen for her opinion.

As a veteran who has been in academia for more than 40 years and the original golden sign of Rhine Life, Parves was impeccable in all aspects. Kristen could see through at a glance what his intentions were.

new progress?It should be the harvest from that 'star fragment'.

As expected, the old guy Parvis secretly kept part of the samples, which was actually what Kristen had expected.

Shaking her head, Kristen directly wrote the words 'Reject' on it and signed her name.

Different from the previous 'Fire Demon Project' led by the Structural Department, this new thing created by Parvis is out and out playing with fire. Once an accident occurs, I am afraid that Rhine Life will not be able to deal with this mess.

After thinking about it, Kristen warned Parvis again, but she did not mention the possible consequences of doing so.

In a sense, Kristen and Parvis are actually the same kind of people. They are both madmen who are willing to sacrifice everything, even themselves, to satisfy their thirst for knowledge.

Because of this, Kristen knew that if she told Parvis the consequences of doing so, it would only make everything worse.

She just warned Parvis that the Melander Foundation might have been eyeing his research and asked him to restrain himself a little.

This should dispel some of his unrealistic thoughts.

"Transforming yourself into a garbage disposal? Your hobby... is really unique."

A malicious voice suddenly sounded in Kristen's ears.

In the office where Kristen was originally alone, a second person appeared.

The 'wave' defense system that Kristen had placed high hopes on, with the strongest man in the entire Rhine life as the imaginary enemy, did not work at all. The seemingly ordinary man Luper appeared in a deserted place. He walked up to Kristen's side and looked at the report in her hand with interest.

Ever since Kristen received a mysterious signal one day more than two months ago, similar scenes have been playing out around her.

Habit is really a very scary force. Now Kristen is no longer surprised by the sudden sound around her.

Kristen didn't look back and replied calmly, "Garbage disposer...that's just for you. For the current Terran civilization, the life form of that creature is undoubtedly perfect. The physical body survives in space...even I have a desire to study it.”

"Then why don't you prepare and give yourself a shot after breaking through the star pod? You don't even need to prepare a spacesuit."

"This is indeed a good proposal. If there is an opportunity to prove the feasibility of this plan, I will consider it." Kristen replied calmly.

This answer obviously did not satisfy the man who suddenly appeared, and he clicked his tongue in great displeasure.

Everything about that creature was what Kristen heard from this man.

In previous civilizations, those creatures might have been just garbage disposals and environmental modification devices, but for the current Terran civilization, they were almost perfect creatures.
