Chapter 258 258: Nonsensical Talk
3/5
"Trash! That is so stupid!"
"Bullshit!"
"Totally dumb, F@cking Nonsense!"
"Wtf did you say?!!!"
Renji just pushed open a door of the laboratory, and the roar of the old professor inside was clearly audible from the doorway to say nothing of the sense of anger that was palpable.
In the lab, many scholars had shrunk back in fear, staying silent and distant across the meeting room.
Renji, who had Eileen by his side at this moment, was different.contemporary romance
The scent of amusement seemed to trail the girl and she was instantly filled with curiosity and excitement, drawing Renji towards the conference room where the roars of anger were continuously emanating from quickly.
Kael Technology really values the Sin City scholars. The big conference room that can fit hundreds of people shows this. Even though the company has lots of different spaces and equipment, it might not have the very latest technology. But, having such a big room for the scholars still shows they are important to Kael Technology.
The door into the meeting room wasn't closed and looking through its doorway Renji could see Professor Einstein with his team of assistants now in a heated debate with another group of Kael Technology researchers, their faces red with agitation.
Aside from these two groups, there were also other scholars who had come to attend the morning meeting. But it wasn't hard to understand that under the fury of the old master Einstein all scholars were trembleing, were silent as cicadas not daring even to make one sound. Some even were continuously glancing towards the door wanting to creep out of a meeting.
But Eileen was different. Seeing from the distance, especially when the girl saw the word "emperor" in PPT projected on the big screen, it immediately sparkled even brighter. She continued pulling into the room of meeting with Renji quietly. After she found randomly a seat, the girl started to listen with his keen interest.
The morning meeting was open to all the scholars and with the currently intense argument between two parties, not many attendants paid attention towards Eileen and Renji who had just come in.
"Professor Einstein, I want to repeat that it is because we have obtained relevant historical evidences that we accordingly invite you to initiate this morning meeting discussion. We hope that you are not making everything personal and putting down your subjective feelings, to discuss with us calmly about the possible factors in the relationship between the emperor and his five guards beyond the relationship of superior and subordinates"
The Kael Technology people said forcefully this while pointing to the mural projected on the screen as proof of their historical evidence to Professor Einstein.
Renji narrowed his eyes because these mural materials are not unfamiliar, very similar in style to what he had seen in Kano Village, perhaps being deliberately processed.
And, moreover, the mural painted only a part of the plot intentionally. It contained in whole from the story about the abandoned maid and the young scientist falling in love then being robbed of her love by a witch and finally "division" of the young man.
These mural insights appear to be the latest findings by Kael Technology, so they couldn't wait to discuss their possibilities with the scholars from Sin City, studying the ancient academic value behind the mural stories.
The maid, the witch, the young scientist—who they allude to is self-evident to the scholars present.
For this reason, the story depicted is akin to pulling Professor Einstein's beard, inciting such a furious rage from him, puffing his beard and glaring his eyes, even forgetting his esteemed status to start cursing loudly.
"Discuss? What the f@uck is there to discuss !?"
"I implore you people from Kael Technology to respect real-
world history. Adaptation is not fabrication, and dramatization is not nonsense! Ancient studies is a discipline of seriousness and caution, not a tool for your sensationalism!"
"According to your so-called 'bullshit evidence', so the emperor fell in love with Zero? And then Lady Lena became jealous, vying with Zero over him?"
The old professor, by the end, was clutching his chest, pointing his finger at the noses of the Kael Technology researchers opposite him, seemingly so angry he couldn't even speak.
The assistant hurriedly brought him water and tea. After taking a big gulp and catching his breath, the professor continued to rant furiously.
"What do you think this is? Playing house? A story of a great person who, after enduring countless hardships and with numerous followers passing the torch, forges ahead from despair to seek a sliver of hope, and at a great cost, saves the world, has turned into what in your hands? Fighting over men? Love talks? I—*spit*!"
The professor's spittle nearly sprayed onto the faces of the Kael Technology researchers opposite him.
"So according to you, what, the emperor's five guards spend their days not thinking of anything else but to bear children with the emperor, to steal men from each other? What do you think this is? A trashy TV drama? Or an adult film?"
"I tell you, this is not about the guards or the emperor; this is about you, you people who have nothing but filthy thoughts and trash in your heads!"
Although the professor was of old age, with white temples, he still spoke with a powerful voice, his denunciation resounding and compelling.
And while the Kael Technology researchers were scolded mercilessly, they still had to stiffen their tingling scalps and emphasize to the old professor across them that this is real, after all, this is precious material produced from "Dream Zero," it can't be fake, right?
Seeing the people from Kael Technology still being obstinate, Professor Einstein completely lost his temper.
"I tell you! If the emperor really had such intentions, then the Mechanical Alliance today would not be led by Kael Technology as a giant corporation. No, forget the Mechanical Alliance, the entire world would be filled with the emperor's progeny, ruled by a vast Ashen Royal family!"
"Do you not realize how easy it is for the demi-human race to bear offspring? If the emperor had indeed gotten together with the Dragon Empire's empress, given the dragon race's reproductive capacity, producing a football field's worth of demi-human children with the emperor's bloodline wouldn't be an issue!"
"Alright, even if we don't talk about demi-humans, let's discuss mechanical life forms, which is even simpler. They don't even need the emperor to actually do anything with them. Just any exchange of bodily fluids, even just a kiss, would allow mechanical life forms to extract the emperor's genetic material from the saliva. With Lady Zero's powerful computing ability, creating a digital life descendant of the emperor would not be difficult."
"And finally, the elves. Let me ask you, have you studied elves? How many research papers on the elf race have you written? I tell you, the elves, to some extent, are similar to mechanical life forms. They don't care about the physical body; they pursue the soul. They can achieve soul fusion on a conscious level, and then through the World Tree, they nurture and reproduce, birthing new life from"
Eileen, listening in, nodded thoughtfully to Professor Einstein's words.
She seemed to understand that what the professor was trying to say was that if the emperor had even the slightest improper thought towards his guards, then the children that would have been born by now would be all over the place.
But Eileen had a question. Out of the five guards, Professor Einstein only mentioned three. The remaining two, including her Goddess, could be excluded since humans indeed have their limits and cannot compare to other races. But what about the succubus? Why didn't he mention the succubus?
Eileen's murmurs were overheard by a scholar from Sin City nearby. The scholar, with a disdainful look at Eileen, proudly stated:
"Do we even need to mention Lady Lena? If Lady Lena had really made a move on the emperor, then what chance would the other four have? Not even a soup's worth would be left. The descendants of the emperor in this world would only belong to the succubus race!"
The morning meeting ended in less than half an hour, with the Kael Technology researchers leaving in a disheveled retreat.
Eileen was a bit disappointed, having not had her fill of listening, while Renji didn't bother with the girl. He immediately took the opportunity of the meeting's adjournment to quickly approach Professor Einstein.
