"The data still needs to be repaired, but you can’t guarantee that it’ll be fixed quickly. So start your research first. When the data does get repaired later, what you’ve gained won’t need to be returned."
"By then, it should be half of our team and half from Lou Wei’s side to estimate your final loss and delay ti."
"The compensation for research funding ntioned by Lou Wei earlier is just the basic. The major part lies in your research outcos."
"For you, this compensation might not be considered too much."
Though Bai Quan said so, Chen Ming didn’t really feel that way.
After all, the movable liquidity he currently had was just under twenty billion, and if Lou Wei’s promised ten billion could be fully obtained, it would directly increase his funds by 5%, which wasn’t insignificant.
"More money is never too much, less money isn’t too little either; just make the arrangents."
Chen Ming replied casually.
Anyway, although these are losses he suffered, he truly doesn’t know the specifics of how to handle compensation.
After all, here is just Chen Ming’s dummy, and many things need to be done according to the Fourteenth Legion’s rules.
So he listens on such matters; Bai Quan will surely arrange things considering his interests.
Bai Quan didn’t have any objections to this either and said, "Alright, the synchronous accelerator core I organized should arrive tomorrow. I’ll give you the core along with the list from the doctors. If you need anything in the research aspect, rember to find ."
"Once the compensation for research funding and research content is done, then it’ll probably be the colony over there. By then, I might need you to run outside for a trip."
"Wait until that’s sorted. I reckon a few days should be enough. If not, I’ll push it."
Bai Quan thought for a mont, realizing there wasn’t anything urgent he needed to inform Chen Ming about and suddenly brought up sothing else, "By the way, I feel your emotions fluctuated quite intensely today, even though normally you’re quite a calm person."
Chen Ming explained, "Whether calm or intense doesn’t matter; what matters is making Lou Wei believe that despite my calm appearance, I’m actually quite anxious inside."
"He doesn’t know , has no idea what I’m normally like. Surely he’s not been observing for over twenty days in the simulation, right? That would be too bizarre."
"So when he’s unclear about my usual attitude, as long as I suddenly show a little flaw when he blanks out because of my questioning, he sure will latch onto what seems to be a flaw."
"It ends up like this; he fell into the trap, also because he first assud I was cheating."
"I feel he does have so psychological resilience, can lie with a straight face, but when exposed to an unknown field, he’s not quite capable."
"When one panics and the mind blanks, then it’s a disaster."
Chen Ming’s analytical deanor made Bai Quan unexpectedly ask, "Have you studied psychology?"
"Not really, just picked up so experience from the boss."
"Wu An..."
Bai Quan recalled a bit about what he knew of Wu An and suddenly rembered that Wu An indeed graduated in so psychology specialty, and his Spiritual Energy was related to this area.
So it’s quite normal for Chen Ming, trained by Wu An, to know a few tricks in this area.
Hence Bai Quan didn’t ask further and continued chatting with Chen Ming for a bit, then suddenly quickly finished breakfast and hurriedly left the canteen with the terminal in hand.
Chen Ming also left the canteen soon after, stepping onto the shuttle boat docked at the do’s edge.
He could do sothing else this morning.
The thought acceleration from last night made both his dummy and real body stay up all night, making it hard for him to focus.
Luckily, Bai Quan probably needed to write many reports regarding this matter, so his schedule was likely busy, aning he wouldn’t have class this morning and could prepare for upcoming tasks instead.
Contemplating his to-do list, Chen Ming boarded the shuttle boat, took off, and headed for his do.
A few minutes later.
The general outline of the research do began to erge amidst the volcanic ash as he approached.
Chen Ming’s slightly dazed spirit instantly revived because not far away was a Destroyer-grade cargo ship, flying unsteadily like it was drunk, towards his do.
Judging from the logo outside the ship, it was a cargo ship transporting materials for the individual of the chanical Race that Chen Ming needed.
Chen Ming instantly thought of a potential issue.
His gaze sharpened, his face darkened, and imdiately sent the video from the shuttle boat’s recorder to Bai Quan.
At the sa ti, he activated the shuttle boat’s communication equipnt, sending a communication request to the cargo ship, which was less than half a minute away from colliding with the do.
However, as he expected, there was no response to the communication.
Although this Destroyer-grade cargo ship had a simplified operating system, usually only about ten people onboard were responsible for piloting.
Chen Ming knew very well how unlikely it is for all ten people to get drunk together, so sothing must have happened onboard.
Chen Ming took a deep breath; tallic liquid flowed out from the void around him, enveloping him, and ford a Flying Locust Power Armor on his body.
