Chapter 125: Is the Hand Behind the Scenes Black or White?

There had always been a question in Lin Lei’s heart. This question did not become clearer as he grew up; instead, it became even more confusing.

That was, why was he able to be reborn?!

This question involved the reverse flow of time. Based on Lin Lei’s current knowledge, no one could achieve time travel! The System could not do this; it had admitted this personally!

As for Pan-dimensional Creatures, judging by the two Lin Lei had met, the World Tree and the Dark Saint, they seemingly did not have this ability either. Otherwise, the Dark Saint would not have been blasted to death by the Fortress Main Gun.

After his rebirth, no mighty expert had discovered his anomaly. This was true for the Earth Will, the Watcher Civilization, and the Pan-dimension. Even the System, which knew him best, did not mention his rebirth and instead chose to ignore it.

Why was he reborn? Why was he reborn on Earth? And why did the Layite People choose to invade the Earthlings, who were in a semi-civilized state?

Fear was not a convincing reason. There must be some other internal driving force behind this!

A huge mystery clearly appeared in Lin Lei’s field of vision, waiting for him to discover it step by step.

The hand hidden behind it, was it black or white? What was its purpose? This was a long-standing question.

Of course, this question was not urgent. The most critical thing now was to produce the Deep Nuclear Fusion Energy Core!

Having the blueprints was one thing, but when actual manufacturing began, various practical problems popped up one after another.

During this time, Lin Lei was extremely busy. He was the person who understood the design concept of the energy core best. As long as there was a problem in any research branch, they would come to him for a solution first.

At this time, Lin Lei also demonstrated his impressive ability. Once a problem was in his hands, Lin Lei would provide a relatively perfect solution within a day at most.

This high efficiency and awe-inspiring creativity made everyone in the entire research institute admire him immensely.

Lin Lei’s prestige in the research institute had now surpassed Lin Xin’s, becoming second only to Old Xiao.

A pillar of the Earth Interstellar Technology Research Institute! This had become the consensus of everyone.

The inside story of his ten-year coma was jokingly referred to by the outside society as him having gone to the Deity and received personal teaching from the Deity.

Regardless, the construction work of the energy core was proceeding in an orderly manner. Everyone burst out with their greatest working enthusiasm because they saw hope!

Half a year later, the Space Loop Generator was successfully born in the laboratory. This was the core of the energy core and the most important part of all the work.

But at this moment, a very tricky problem appeared, which was how to apply the Curvature Generator to an object the size of an atomic nucleus!

Lin Lei’s original design also involved the redesign of the Curvature Generator. It seemed feasible on the surface, but during specific processing and manufacturing, insurmountable obstacles were encountered.

Earth’s current industrial manufacturing level was still too low. If it were in a standard Fifth-grade Civilization, the manufacturing of this Curvature Generator would be a piece of cake.

Earth’s existing Warp Generators acted on a whole. For example, on a spaceship, it would act on the entire spaceship. In the energy core, it would act on the entire energy core.

It would not accelerate any specific atomic nucleus inside.

To solve this, one would almost have to redesign the already relatively mature Warp Generator to make it applicable to the microscopic field.

This in itself was a massive task no less than building the energy core!

Even Lin Xin, an authority in this field, was helpless. Out of options, the entire research institute could only finish some minor tasks first, waiting for a breakthrough in this area.

Helpless, Lin Lei had to abandon the original design and seek a new solution.

Of course, pure work was hard to improve efficiency. Sometimes, inspiration often burst forth in a moment of leisure!

So now, Lin Lei sat in a wheelchair, slowly wandering in the square of the City of Hope. Behind him was Lin Xin, silently pushing him forward.

There were many people coming and going in this square, and Aliens could be seen everywhere. They came here mainly to look up at the glory of the once legendary warrior.

Although thirty-six years had passed, Lin Lei’s battle footage had always been regarded as a classic among classics. His battles had almost become the textbook for Mecha combat in every interstellar civilization.

On this square stood a statue of Lin Lei. This statue was 326 meters high. Its style changed from the iron-and-blood style Lin Lei often displayed, instead lowering his head slightly in contemplation.

His eyes also looked at the multitude of living beings at his feet, mixing majesty with care. It made people feel a sense of fatherhood upon seeing it.

Indeed, Lin Lei was the father of Earth Civilization, without a doubt.

But this feeling was for others. Lin Lei himself looked at all this and did not have any particular emotion.

His only thought was, when did he ever look at people with this kind of gaze? It was impossible that even he couldn’t remember it.

Thinking of this, Lin Lei couldn’t help but laugh. The designer of this statue must have projected some of their own fantasies.

“What are you laughing at?!” A voice as cold as jade sounded from behind him. It was Lin Xin.

She came here also to relax and relieve work pressure. There was a statue of her father here, and she had designed it herself. Every time she came here, Lin Xin’s mind could quickly calm down.

But now, she accidentally looked down and saw a smile of unknown meaning on White’s face in the wheelchair.

This smile gave people the feeling that he was watching a joke.

This White, who did he think he was! Did he really think that just because he designed a Deep Nuclear Fusion Energy Core, he could be so arrogant?

Yes, his design was indeed ingenious, but it was only ingenious. Given time, others could design it too. It was far from being unique and indispensable.

In Lin Xin’s eyes, this smile was arrogance and a blasphemy against the great father in her heart!

At this moment, Lin Xin’s dislike for Lin Lei White increased greatly, so even her voice became ice-cold.

Lin Lei hadn’t reacted yet, and he still had a smile on his face: “Nothing, I just feel that the style of this statue is a bit inconsistent with the Lin Lei in my memory.”

This was indeed no big deal, but it touched a sore spot in Lin Xin’s heart. Instantly, Lin Lei was in trouble.

Lin Xin suddenly pushed the wheelchair forward: “Go to hell, you arrogant guy!” After saying that, she turned to leave.

Don’t let Lin Xin’s delicate appearance fool you; her body was incredibly powerful. Her body Energy Level reached 9.0. This was without any enhancement training; it was entirely a natural constitution!

Fortunately, she didn’t use her full strength, but Lin Lei’s wheelchair still rushed forward for quite a while.

He broke out in a cold sweat from fright, but then he laughed out loud. Not bad, this was his offspring; she should be so daring in thought and action.

However, he quickly stopped laughing because he realized the environment was a bit strange.

This was a very wide square with an area of one thousand square kilometers. There were many Aliens here too, but now, Lin Lei felt that within a range of dozens of meters around him, several gazes were staring at him indistinctly.

These were definitely not the eyes of onlookers. Who would look at a commotion with killing intent in their eyes?

Someone wanted to harm him! This thought flashed through his mind, and at the same time, all possible enemies were listed by him in an instant.

Could it be Lin Xin? Judging by her previous actions, Lin Lei had to suspect her, but where would that come from?

Lin Lei instantly ruled her out. Her previous actions were indeed just out of her true feelings and did not mix with any purpose. The subtle induction between father and daughter could be felt by Lin Lei.

When he returned to Earth, he only did one thing, which was the design of the energy core. Who did this hinder? It was impossible on the human side, so it could only be the Layite People!

At this time, the killers hidden in the crowd were already very close to Lin Lei. Cold sweat broke out on Lin Lei’s back. Nowadays, he had no ability to resist at all. Although it didn’t matter if this body died, finding a new host that fully met the current situation was not easy.

In the research institute, the only one who was beaten into a vegetative state was Lin Lei White.

Just when the sense of crisis in Lin Lei’s heart reached its peak, the crisis suddenly dissolved, and at the same time, a slight commotion appeared in the crowd.

Lin Lei looked around and found that Lin Xin had already come to his side, and on the ground around her lay several silent people.

Obviously, in just a short while, these assassins had been dealt with by Lin Xin.

Looking at the body shapes of the unlucky fellows on the ground, every one of them was twisted weirdly. One of them even had his head turned to the back in a very strange way. It was estimated that these people were all dead.

What a ruthless move! Lin Lei bared his teeth. He had a new understanding of this daughter.

Lin Xin’s face was still very indifferent, and her tone was still not very good: “Since the establishment of the Interstellar Technology Research Institute, this kind of assassination has been endless. It’s all the good work of the Layite People. We are already used to it.”

No wonder. Lin Lei suddenly realized. Lin Xin accompanied him out, but it turned out she was acting as a bodyguard.

Soon, the bodies of these people were dragged away by the arriving security personnel. Judging by their skilled movements, it was obviously not the first time they had done this.

Even the surrounding Aliens were not surprised by this. The conflict between the Layite People and the Earthlings was well known, and Lin Xin’s fame was such that any Alien coming to Earth had heard of it.

Ultimately, Lin Xin was just too outstanding. The daughter of the War God, this halo brought her many mysterious and noble qualities. Coupled with her appearance, which was almost unrivaled in the Galaxy, one could not help but admire her at first sight.

At this moment, Lin Lei obtained a brand new design idea for the Curvature Generator. His eyes shone with strange light. He didn’t even say thanks to Lin Xin, but just said excitedly: “Quick, push me back, I have a new idea!”

Hearing this, Lin Xin immediately put down her prejudice. She knew the preciousness of this kind of sudden inspiration, so on the way, she didn’t make a sound and let Lin Lei immerse himself in his world.

As soon as Lin Lei returned to the research base, he immediately plunged into his workshop, closed the door, and entered a state of working so hard he forgot to eat or sleep.
