Industry: Cthulhu

Chapter 72 Assembly Number

The star region at the edge of the Milky Way.

Amidst a busy working atmosphere, Gray's integrated solutions company was operating as usual. Sunlight streamed through the windows into every corner of the office, bringing warmth.

At this moment, Gray's eyes were focused, his fingers tapping quickly on the light curtain, designing and installing an atmospheric environment system integration solution for the next customer.

As a mid-level engineer, Gray did not stay in the inner ring of the galaxy to participate in the fierce internal competition, but came to the edge of the galaxy and founded a system integration company in this desolate starry sky.

So far, the company's business is doing well. After all, this is a marginal area with a shortage of talent. Intermediate engineers are already rare, at least before Blue Light Technology came into being.

Customers would rather spend more money to find professionals like Gray to plan and build integrated projects for them. After all, in the Milky Way, the Libra badge is a golden signboard, representing the most trustworthy group of engineers in the Milky Way.

Gray has always believed that science is the key to solving all problems.

For example: If we want to solve the problems of human life span and health, we need genetic science; if we want to improve the atmospheric environment and natural conditions of the galaxy, we must rely on materials and environmental engineering; if we want to resist cosmic radiation, we cannot do without space barrier science, etc.

Soon, it was lunch time.

While eating lunch, Gray habitually opens major technology forums in the galaxy to browse the latest technological developments and industry trends. This is his biggest hobby in his spare time.

When he was browsing the Space Power Forum, he suddenly saw a shocking piece of news.

Blu-ray Technology was attacked by unknown forces, and Fang Yan needs help!
Uh-huh~
Gray's heart sank suddenly, and then he froze as if he had been electrocuted.

Unknowingly, Fang Yan has established a leadership image among scientists and engineers. Since he released the compass algorithm, the entire scientific community has been paying attention to him.

The successive releases of Heart of the Ocean and Broken Blade have made Fang Yan's popularity reach an unprecedented level.

Especially a few days ago, Fang Yan's incisive comments on religion and politics at the press conference, as well as his innate fighting spirit, pushed the atmosphere to a climax.

After all, the Milky Way has never lacked elites, but few people can be academic leaders while also possessing a strong fighting spirit and leadership qualities.

Today, in a sense, Fang Yan is no longer just an individual, but has become a banner of the scientific community. Every technology he develops and every speech he makes inspires the elites of the galaxy.

However, today, Fang Yan was actually ambushed and is facing difficulties!

Hearing this news, it was like a heavy hammer hitting Gray's heart, and his thoughts instantly went back to the past. Fang Yan had created miracles in the scientific world time and time again, and his wonderful speeches time and time again. His courage to face theocracy and politics made Gray admire him immensely.

"No, I have to do something at this time!" Gray's heart was burning with anger and determination. He ran to the finance office in a panic.

"Quick, follow this list and start counting immediately to see how much inventory we have left!" He practically rushed into the finance office, his face filled with urgency. "Call all the suppliers in the city. We want all the components on this list!"

The accountant was still eating, half of the spoon in his mouth, looking confused. "What happened?"

"Fang Yan needs help! We must immediately collect the components he needs and send them to Earth!" Gray said in a firm and unquestionable tone.

The accountant had naturally heard of Fang Yan's name, but his boss's behavior still puzzled him. The two companies were so far apart and had no intersection. When Fang Yan had a problem, why did Gray look more anxious than the person involved?
But seeing the fiery look in Gray's eyes, the accountant nodded and quickly got busy.

Soon after, the statistical results came out, and all the inventory of the company and suppliers across the city were collected together.

Gray looked at the scattered chips, superconducting materials, and coils before him, his expression darkening. This was, after all, a barren fringe star region. He had done his best, but the end result couldn't even fill a small shipping container, and that was all the inventory Gray could find.

"Do you want me to contact the logistics company?" asked the accountant.

"It's too late." Gray gritted his teeth, "Load everything onto the ship. I'll go to Earth myself!"

The accountant stood there in astonishment, "Boss? Are you crazy?"

"Transportation and logistics in the fringe star regions are underdeveloped. We did buy a small cargo ship for this purpose, but it takes three full days to sail just to transport this little bit of material. It's totally not worth it!"

"I don't care!" Gray's voice was as firm as iron. "This isn't just about Fang Yan, it's also about the faith and mission of science! No matter what, this hard-earned reputation must not fall!"

Listening to Gray's words, the accountant stood there in a daze. He didn't understand what scientific belief was or what the flag meant.

But the accountant felt a powerful force from his boss, and the irresistible sense of oppression made him unable to refute, so he could only nod silently.

However, the accountant's words reminded Gray that there was still a lot of space on the cargo ship and could load more cargo.

Gray quickly posted on major technology forums, clearly marking his route and informing everyone that he had a cargo ship urgently heading to Earth. If anyone needed transport components, he would help free of charge, without asking for a penny!

However, to Gray's surprise, when he finished posting and looked back.

Similar posts have already flooded the forum, and it seems that all scientists and engineers on the edge of the galaxy have organized themselves.

They tried every possible way to collect components, even dismantling existing equipment, and used all available means of transportation to rush to Earth.

It seems that Aliat’s call was not a plea for help, but a rallying cry for the scientific community!

In an instant, Gray suddenly felt the urge to burst into tears.

It has been too long. Ever since the intelligent brain incident, the scientific community has suffered a severe blow. It has been many years since we have seen such a united scene.

This is the power of faith!

The Milky Way has never lacked people who believe in science. What it lacks is a leader and a rallying cry that resounds throughout the stars!
Within just a few minutes, responses came flooding in from all directions.

"I have over 700 sets of superconducting coils here. Please help me deliver them to Earth!"

"I have an energy management chip here, so I won't go there in person, but please convey the message that Blue Light Technology must hold on, and Fang Yan must persevere!"

"Fuck them! It must be those charlatans who did it! I'm going to fight them! Even if it means losing the company, I must support Fang Yan!"

This was just one post from Gray. At the same time, there were thousands of posts that suddenly appeared. Everyone was either digging into the inventory or helping with free transportation.

Gray felt his blood boiling, and the long-lost enthusiasm in his heart seemed to be completely ignited. He couldn't help but remember his love for science when he was a child, and the heartfelt declaration when he became an engineer.

Finally, the scientific community is no longer silent. Everyone is gathering towards the same goal, unleashing the power that has been accumulated for a long time!

The power of faith!
