Chapter 1289 Star Sea (93)
Chapter 1289 Star Sea (Ninety-three)
Stellar core gold is one of the rarest and most precious substances in the entire universe.
Its value is not only reflected in its scarce reserves, but most importantly in its unique and irreplaceable use.
For example, the battleship sword equipped with combat mechas has a manufacturing formula that includes star core gold. If this special metal is not added, the sword body will not be able to withstand the impact of ultra-high frequency fluctuations.
In addition, star core gold is also present in many black technology products, and it takes at least five tons of star core gold to build a Titan-class battleship.
Star core gold also limits the production of the Empire's Titan battleships to some extent!
The preciousness of this material is needless to say.
In addition, the refining and forging of star core gold is extremely difficult, and special equipment must be used for smelting and application.
Now, some people actually said that the gift Wang Chen gave to Lin Lingya was forged with star core gold. Everyone's first reaction was disbelief, especially the arrogant man who spoke rudely to Wang Chen. He was so angry that he felt like his tail had been stepped on.
He immediately turned around and wanted to scold the other party for talking nonsense.
As a result, before he could vent his anger, the young nobleman, who had been so arrogant just now, instantly blushed and swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his throat.
I almost suffocated to death on the spot!
The person who pointed out the texture of the thorny rose was a white-haired old nobleman. He was wearing a black tuxedo and gold-rimmed glasses. The deep wrinkles on his face silently told of the vicissitudes of life.
But his eyes, full of wisdom, make people dare not underestimate him in the slightest.
"Your judgment is certainly not wrong."
Count Linde quickly complimented the other party, winked at his daughter, and then said to Wang Chen with a smile: "Sir, please come in and take a seat to taste the wine that is a specialty of our Linde family."
The Count was undoubtedly a very versatile person, and he resolved a potential conflict with ease.
Of course Wang Chen would not refute his face, and Xiaoxiao followed the maid to find a seat in the hall and sit down.
As for the old butler, someone will naturally make arrangements for him.
The gift that Wang Chen gave to Lin Lingya was actually made of star core gold.
His star core gold was taken from the Holy Fire Society's lair and was part of the latter's accumulation over decades. Not even one thousandth of it was used to forge this fine thorn sword, so it was nothing.
It was the forging of the star core gold into an exquisite lady’s sword that truly tested Wang Chen’s strength.
It’s a pity that no one at the scene could understand this!
Wang Chen had just tasted the so-called specialty wine of the Linde family when the old noble came over and asked with a smile, "Young man, it's so boring to drink alone. Let's chat for a while, shall we?"
"Thank you."
Wang Chen stood up and invited the other party to take a seat: "I'm happy to do so."
The old nobleman did not hesitate to sit down and asked for a glass of wine, drinking while talking to Wang Chen.
The old nobleman's name was Cai Bai, an imperial baron and a former professor at Shengjing University.
In fact, when he said the name, Wang Chen knew who this person was.
Baron Cai Bai was a famous scholar, polymath, and paleontologist in the empire. Wang Chen had read his works before, but the author's photo in the book was quite different from the old nobleman in front of him, so he did not recognize him at first.
It is said that this great scholar was born into a commoner family. Because of his special contributions to academic research, he was personally conferred the title of baron by His Majesty the Emperor, and this honorary title is hereditary for three generations!
You should know that the emperor rarely grants hereditary titles, and its high value is well known to everyone.
So it is normal for Cai Bai to recognize star core gold.
It was precisely because of his identity that the young noble did not dare to act rashly and had to endure the humiliation of being slapped in the face.
And Wang Chen was able to confirm that Cai Bai was also a person with super powers!
This old nobleman is knowledgeable and humorous. Communicating with him really feels like being bathed in spring breeze.
Just after finishing a glass of fine wine, Cai Bo suddenly said with a smile: "Zhenzhen mentioned you to me, saying that you are a very special young man. I didn't expect to see you here tonight."
Wang Chen was puzzled: "Zhenzhen?"
He doesn't remember knowing anyone named "Zhenzhen".
"Xu Zhen."
Wang Chen was shocked by Cai Bai's answer. He then realized that this old nobleman and Xu Zhen were friends for many years.
Cai Bai is much older than Xu Zhen, so they can be considered friends regardless of age.
In fact, the villa where Wang Chen lives now is the mansion bestowed by the imperial royal family on Xu Zhen. It is only more than 100 kilometers away from Cai Bai’s home and can be reached in a few minutes by a hovercraft.
"Xu Zhen told me that you are the most powerful superpowered person in the empire..."
Cai Bai's eyes flashed with childish curiosity: "Is it true?"
Wang Chen smiled and replied, "I haven't met anyone stronger than me yet, but the universe is so big, who can guarantee this?"
"Yeah, the universe is so huge."
Cai Bai withdrew his inquiring gaze and sighed, "It's a pity that human life is too short. In a hundred years, the mysteries of the universe that can be explored are extremely limited."
"Forget about the universe. We humans haven't even figured out our own secrets yet!"
Wang Chen nodded silently.
He has practiced for so many years and experienced many worlds, so he has a deep feeling about this.
In fact, compared to the universe, the mystery of fate is truly incomprehensible!
"If you have time, come to my house and sit down."
Cai Bai is quite old, and after chatting with Wang Chen for more than half an hour, he looked a little exhausted.
The great scholar gave Wang Chen a business card and then left the hall with the help of a maid.
Count Linde left the other guests behind and personally accompanied them out.
As soon as Baron Cai Bai left, Wang Chen ordered another glass of wine and waited for the coming-of-age ceremony to begin.
Although no one provoked him in person, he clearly felt the rejection and alienation from the guests present, and he isolated himself intentionally or unintentionally.
Obviously, in the eyes of these nobles, Wang Chen was more like an alien who didn't fit in.
Wang Chen just laughed it off.
He knew very well that such occasions were where the imperial nobles socialized for fame and fortune, and only those who were recognized by these people could truly join in, and then make connections to gain resources and information.
Not to mention Wang Chen, even Baron Cai Bai, probably because of his commoner background, or for other reasons, was kept at a distance by these nobles.
There is no need to force yourself to blend in if you are in different circles. For Wang Chen, the biggest gain tonight is Cai Bo's business card.
He still had to stay on Holy Light Star for a while, which was a good opportunity for him to communicate more with this great scholar and learn some useful knowledge.
Another half an hour later, pleasant music was heard in the hall, and Lin Lingya's coming-of-age ceremony officially began!
