Chapter 587: Chapter 35 Ready to Launch

Months later, the storm had been forgotten, and Prince Charles no longer caused trouble. The events at Lucas University had already adversely affected him, and continuing to create issues would only damage his reputation further.

Thus, letting time naturally erase it was the best choice.

Xu Mo remained devoted to his studies and cultivation, and his Source Power Level finally broke through to A level. With both his Source Power Level and Spiritual Power Level at A, without using equipment in battle, his Combat Power could reach an A+ standard, truly placing him among the experts.

With equipment, the outcome depended on the equipment’s strength; after all, in a technological era, the gap between the strengths of equipment was vast, allowing one to exert combat power far beyond one’s own level with powerful equipment.

In addition, Xu Mo had read more books, covering a wide range of subjects.

Furthermore, Xu Mo’s studies were far from dull; every day, female students came to chat with him. After all, Xu Mo had gained a “little fame” at Lucas University, known as the miraculous Library Science manager, handsome and young master of Psychology, deceitful swindler without a single truthful word, and a scoundrel who rose from a servant to prominence.

In short, girls had to be careful around Xu Mo; he was very dangerous.

If Ross knew, he would warn boys to be cautious around Xu Mo too; he was extremely dangerous. Xu Mo had persuaded Ross to drop out and work for him, exploiting his labor, paying just enough salary to cover food and warmth after deducting debts, and resorting to having Ye Qingdie reprimand him if they disagreed.

Ross felt his life was in darkness with no end in sight, as the company was not only unprofitable but also sinking deeper into debt. All the money earned from energy was channeled into research.

However, Blue Star Energy Technology Group was now developing very rapidly. After making certain progress in research, they started to develop the first batch of weapons. There was considerable debate within the company about what effects these weapons should achieve before development started, with some advocating for the creation of superweapons.

But Ross suggested that for the first batch of weapons developed by Blue Star Energy Technology Company, they should not aim for extremely powerful superweapons but prioritize practicality with one goal in mind: profit.

Xu Mo approved, shortening the cycle, quickly developing, and monetizing them in the market. After all, massive-scale production also required time post-development.

Blue Star Energy Technology Group needed to establish a solid foundation first, allowing the company to grow healthily, which was the only way forward. The first batch of weapons didn’t need to make too much noise; being better than those available on the market would suffice.

Earn money, build a reputation, then attract more talent, and continue to delve into research and expand the company.

Scientific research is fundamental, but making money is reality.

Without the support of interstellar bank loans, relying on Odin Mountain Star’s energy sales would hardly support long-term research; scientific research is a money-burning endeavor.

At Lucas University, the academic year was nearing its end, with seniors gradually leaving school, and students from other years busy with end-of-semester exams, with Zero also quite busy recently, often studying in the Library until late.

This amused Xu Mo greatly; he never thought that ‘Zero’ would one day be tormented by exams.

Watching the students of Lucas University strive hard, Xu Mo felt very happy.

Finally, Zero had finished his exams.

Sorey and Yekaterina had also gradually completed their end-of-year tests.

“The disaster is finally over,” said Sorey, smacking his own head in the Library, tortured to the brink of death.

“Can you pass?” Xu Mo asked.

“Should, could, if I’m lucky…” Sorey’s words grew less confident with each utterance. “I leave it to God,” he said.

“The library will also be closed during the holiday. I plan to go back to Odin Mountain Star, Xu Mo, do you want to come and have some fun? I’ll show you around,” Sorey said.

“Fun?” Xu Mo’s eyes lit up a bit.

“I’d like to,” Xu Mo said. “But the company’s weapons might be going on the market soon, I need to check on that. Maybe some other time.”

“Oh, then I have to hurry back,” Sorey said. “Can’t miss such a big event.”

He was a major shareholder after all. His big venture had taken another step forward, right?

“Can’t you not go back?” Yekaterina asked, planning not to return herself; she didn’t want to face her family and the Elder Council, who knew what absurd ideas they might have.

“People of Odin Mountain have a fine tradition of filial piety,” Sorey told Yekaterina. He only went back once a year; if he didn’t go this time, his mother might not give him any allowance next year.

“Go early, come back early,” Xu Mo said.

“I’ll try to get back before the company’s weapons hit the market,” Sorey said.

Meanwhile, Xu Mo’s Communicator vibrated; he received a message from Sal, asking if he wanted to visit Sasi Kingdom, which Xu Mo again declined.

Sadly, he had befriended several students from Lucas University and earned travel opportunities to several planets. It’s a pity, but he would make up for it later.

After Sorey and the others left, Xu Mo’s Communicator kept vibrating.

It was messages from female students he knew, bidding him farewell, as they would be apart for a while. Xu Mo felt that the female students of Lucas University were indeed very warm and polite.

“Let me see.” Zero looked at Xu Mo and said.
