Super Invincible Battleship-Chapter 299 - 164: Scientific Genius_3
Chapter 299 -164: Scientific Genius_3
Yan Fei’s confidence in accepting the challenge from the Taekwondo master stemmed from his realization of his own strength’s position after the battle with the bearded Al-Assassin. Although he was no match for Huo Shan and Duan Hongye, outside of those God-level experts, he was nearly invincible within the innate realm. Moreover, he had one ultimate trump card, which was the black sphere. If he really encountered an unbeatable expert during the battle, by adopting a mutually destructive fighting style, he could recover his injuries at any time with the black sphere, while the opponent could only deplete their own strength. In the end, he could grind the opponent to death solely through attrition.
Of course, Yan Fei’s trump card was only effective against experts below the Divine Realm. If he encountered an expert of the Divine Realm in a contest, he would immediately concede defeat. However, the number of experts at the level of the Divine Realm was extremely limited, and it was possible that Duan Hongye was the only one in all of China. Yan Fei did not believe that in the small country of South Korea, there would be one, and that such an expert would step into the ring to spar with him.
Seeing the confidence and dominance in Yan Fei’s eyes, coupled with the rapid recovery of his complexion, Lu Pingping decided to trust Yan Fei despite having no understanding of Kung Fu. However, she started to worry. If the South Korean side really put up three billion US dollars for the bet, where would she find three billion US dollars to match their wager? Although Dream Technology was profitable, it had not been in business long enough, and the Company had been spending too much recently, leaving it unable to produce three billion US dollars.
If there were no three billion US dollars, then Yan Fei would suffer a great loss of face, and might even be ridiculed by those South Koreans. At that time, how should she salvage the situation? However, what Lu Pingping didn’t know was that Yan Fei was about to give her a great surprise. With this surprise, Dream Technology wouldn’t lack funds for a very long time, let alone worry about the three billion US dollars in gambling money.
The number of people in Yan Fei’s group reached twenty, which was just the employee count from Dream Technology. After arriving at Beijing Airport, they would pick up the thirty-six family members of the victimized employees who were waiting there. Their group of fifty-six boarding a Boeing 747 did indeed seem very spacious.
However, this charter flight incident served as a wake-up call for Yan Fei, signifying that with the rapid development of Dream Technology, he needed to purchase a business jet as well. Having a business jet would help enhance the overall standing of Dream Technology. Without a business jet, both Yan Fei and Lu Pingping would find it inconvenient when traveling long distances. Although Yan Fei could use drones for travel, that was completely surreptitious. If traveling openly, conventional modes of transportation were still necessary. However, the plan to purchase a business jet would have to wait until after handling the situation in Europe; currently, neither the time nor the mood was right for it.
Two hours later, the Boeing 747 landed at Beijing Airport. According to the previously arranged time, the next take-off wouldn’t be until eight o’clock in the evening, by which point they would fly directly to Charles de Gaulle Airport in France. The several hours in-between were just right for settling the families of the victimized employees.

As expected, the Company’s employees were responsible for receiving and consoling the families. Yan Fei and Lu Pingping had already left the airport, driven with their personal bodyguards to a renowned Research Institute in the suburbs of Beijing. This time, they were here to meet their good friend Yang Qi. Since their last meeting with Yang Qi in Shanghai more than half a year ago, both Yan Fei and Lu Pingping had been too busy with work to visit their best friend from their university days.
The primary reason for Yan Fei and Lu Pingping’s visit was to catch up with their friend and strengthen their bond; the secondary goal was to recruit him. Even during their university days, Yang Qi exhibited a terrifying capacity for scientific research, and as his only friends, Yan Fei and Lu Pingping knew his abilities all too well.
In Yang Qi’s eyes, however, Yan Fei and Lu Pingping, no matter how exceptional they performed, were nothing more than ordinary people—and utterly ordinary at that. The gap between them was like the one Yan Fei perceived now when seeing someone with severe intellectual disabilities, then demonstrating a gap in intelligence during a contest with that person.
Yang Qi was undeniably a scientific genius. His ideas often left Yan Fei and Lu Pingping dumbfounded, yet upon reflection seemed reasonable. But constrained by the current technological level and strength, they couldn’t verify whether Yang Qi’s conjectures were correct. So Yang Qi was always in anguish, because current technology could not allow him to exercise his true power. His situation was akin to someone who had invented nuclear weapon technology facing a technological level of primitive people.
Dream Technology had begun to achieve some success, but its foundation was insufficient to support its rapid growth. Aware of this issue, Yan Fei and Lu Pingping had begun to increase their investments, hoping to catch up in advanced Technology. To achieve this goal, Dream Technology not only invested a substantial amount of money to establish its own high-tech laboratory but also started recruiting scientific experts extensively.
During this period, Dream Technology indeed recruited some technology experts, but not one capable of leading a field. The work of these experts was limited to providing missing data for the Auxiliary Brain’s technology extrapolation system or correcting erroneous data collected from the Internet. They were unable to conduct proactive scientific research.
Facing this predicament, Yan Fei and Lu Pingping thought of Yang Qi. Previously, he had revealed to them that he was not valued at this Research Institute. The work he was assigned to was merely tangential data processing, and his lack of worldliness was to blame for his lack of recognition.
Yang Qi suffered from a severe case of Scholar Syndrome and had no skills in socializing, which naturally led to offending colleagues at the Research Institute and being ostracized, a completely normal occurrence. Thus, his life at the Research Institute was anything but happy. For Yan Fei and Lu Pingping, the time was ripe to recruit him. As long as Yang Qi was willing to join Dream Technology, paired with Yan Fei’s strong support for scientific research, Dream Technology’s technological prowess would surely make rapid strides in a short time.
What surprised Yan Fei and Lu Pingping, though, was when they arrived at the Research Institute, they found Yang Qi wasn’t processing experimental data but was cleaning the Courtyard. The pair were extremely astonished—Yang Qi might have Scholar Syndrome, but his scientific research strength was formidable, capable of yielding results with just an opportunity. How could such a scientifically gifted individual, capable of producing results for the institute, be reduced to cleaning?
