Fox Has No Malicious Intent

"The development of science and technology is forever tied to the so-called pits of mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, and logic; they all belong to foundational disciplines. Once there's a breakthrough in foundational disciplines, it manifests in the eyes of the average person as science progressing at a mind-blowing speed..."

Li Wenkang shook his head and said, "But to be honest, aside from breakthroughs in life sciences, we're actually living off the past in other respects."

After expressing his invitation to Master Fuli to a laboratory to assist with research, Li Wenkang did not detail the project's name, but rather conveyed what should be considered "common knowledge" or an objective evaluation of the current situation.

Artificial intelligence, nuclear reactors, space stations, or other advanced technologies—all developments stem from breakthroughs in the application of foundational disciplines.

Foundational studies are like the root system of a large tree, supporting the tree's lush growth.

Their breakthrough is a process from 0 to 1.

On Blue Star currently, while the progress of foundational studies is not as exaggerated as Li Wenkang claimed, it's true that there have been no significant breakthroughs in the grand scheme for decades.

Various scholars have been digesting breakthroughs from decades ago and nurturing the next wave of explosion.

According to normal estimates, in another twenty years, we should glimpse the nascent breakthroughs in foundational disciplines, and possibly it will be a 'deep integration of multiple disciplines' breakthrough.

This is how everything should naturally proceed.

But ever since the advent of Spiritual Particles and the successive appearances of super-ancient civilizations, the so-called normal estimations have been far surpassed by the pace of these mechanical deities.

The life sciences on Blue Star once flourished extremely, enough to propel biological bodies across the stars.

Later on, they even created humanoid high-speed particle colliders; saying they could hand-craft nuclear explosions is an understatement.

It's believed the Dragon People's peak era could hand-craft micro black holes, even dominating the cosmos in the mystical realm of quantum mechanics.

Numerous pieces of evidence suggest Dragon People existed in three-dimensional space but possessed four-dimensional capabilities.

"Based on all these observations, and Master Fuli's archaeological excavations and reconstructions of history, we've gradually understood the rise and fall of [super-ancient civilizations]."

"Due to security concerns in a world of great contention, the authorities are prepared to fully commit to the [dual-track system]."

Li Wenkang's expression turned peculiar as he looked at Master Fuli.

"Wasn't there talk of the dual-track system before?" Ansheng asked curiously.

The so-called dual-track system is a development strategy based on an incomplete understanding and concern about the nature of Spiritual Particles.

Spiritual Particles are materials generated according to some fixed periodic law.

Their duration varies, from millions to merely hundreds of years.

Therefore, Xia Country's approach is not to fully commit but to leverage the Divine Power of Spiritual Particles to advance life sciences, which then drives other foundational disciplines, ensuring Xia Country will not regress to the Stone Age even if Spiritual Particles disappear one day.

"There was talk before, but at that time, we didn't realize the Dragon People could transcend dimensions." Li Wenkang shrugged and said:

"I don't deny the power of the First Epoch, but it belonged to the ultimate specialized student, leaning towards life sciences and causal laws we cannot comprehend."

"The Second Epoch was also specialized, but the Dragon People's specialization was a [perspective]—all they knew and observed came from a high-dimensional view observing lower dimensions."

"This [perspective] and [activation], should they become fully integrated, would mean humanity's exploration of foundational disciplines would no longer be exploration but listening—listening to unknown matter explaining itself to us, hearing cosmic principles proclaimed."

Li Wenkang suppressed his emotions and said, "Should Spiritual Particles abruptly disappear one day, Xia Country would still remain a member of the interstellar civilization based on these accumulations."

"Even if there's no power to pluck the sun, moon, and stars, it wouldn't be something ground-level civilizations could claim as their own."

Li Wenkang posed a hypothesis about Xia Country's future, excluding the Dragon People's legacy.

The evaluation he made was not optimistic, but a calculation based on current known information.

Fully conquer Spirit Particle Science, intentionally guiding evolution towards the [Second Epoch] direction.

To gain high-dimensional perspectives, thereby propelling the authentic physics of Blue Star humans.

Presently, Master Fuli is regarded as a shortcut, equipped with [activation] and [perspective].

With Master Fuli joining, it's akin to triggering a new wave of "technological explosion" on Blue Star.

[Fuli holds the key, but coaxing this lazy spirit beast out will require a bit of persuasion. — Li Wenkang outlined his grand plan, but inwardly he knew of Fuli's indolence, pondering shift arrangements while secretly planning a schedule; three days a month of duty, wondering if Fuli would tolerate it...]

[Wish Fulfilled: I am a mechanical pioneer (learning from past lessons, Blue Star creatures perhaps could take a new step, establishing [Third Epoch], but the long night of the cosmos means dying halfway is normal...)]

After setting up the preamble, Li Wenkang no longer spoke but sighed, and while waiting for Master Fuli's response, took out a pack of cigarettes intending to light one, yet couldn't find the lighter after a long search.

Ultimately, Li Wenkang looked puzzled, probing the inside coat pocket and still failing.

As for Master Fuli, his mind flooded with a magnificent burst, resembling a brilliant sunrise that almost blinded him.

"Damn! Something valuable came out!"

Ansheng was slightly stunned, witnessing the brilliance emanating from the wish list for the first time.

Li Wenkang's wish could not be considered small; if the lab could truly refine and utilize the knowledge from Shasha and Sun Xingyao to support mechanical creations, perhaps it could indeed break the "Blue Star big black egg curse."

Blood and flesh, Dragon People alike, were top overlords commanding the cycle during the revival of Spiritual Particles.

Once Spiritual Particles' revival ceased, they collectively went mute.

Although not lacking foresight, they were very confident.

The First Epoch almost succeeded.

A second chance doesn't mean a third, as Blue Star entered the human epoch, humans clearly wanted reassurance, trying to ensure minimum guarantees.

Searching desperately for Spiritual Particles' source, attempting to secure even one guarantee.

"However, the page describing the project seems to discreetly convey a sense of insecurity?"

"Old Li, is there really no confidence?" Ansheng regarded the project description peculiarly, especially that sentence: "the long night of space, Third Epoch dying halfway is normal."

The wishes and project page in the wish list can subtly reflect the wish-makers' mindset.

In a certain sense, Li Wenkang's words reflect a 'gamble,' highly probable yet not absolute.

"So this is how it is..."

"You talk project, it's essentially pushing Ansheng or other potential Spirit Beasts to upgrade furiously, thereby feeding foundational sciences..."

Ansheng pretends to realize and speaks, with a hint of peculiar expression as he looks at Li Wenkang:

"Upgrading to fight monsters is not the problem, but can Old Li take a beating?"

"Shasha and Xiaosun alike, are nothing but greedy and lustful beings, I'm afraid they'll gang up on Old Li!"

Shasha is famously gluttonous, while Sun Xingyao may appear trouble-free, yet familial grudges and martial vendettas are plentiful.

Despite having the ability to send them to the plant,

But can Old Li handle the pain?

"What's this got to do with handling a beating?" Li Wenkang looked completely puzzled at Master Fuli.
