Delta: Taming wheat in a dream, I, Said

night.

Reality, Sleeping Moon City, Academy of Sciences.

This is the most heavily guarded place in Sleeping Moon City, where the most elite researchers in the entire Dragon Kingdom gather.

at this time,

A middle-aged man wearing a mask is conducting research in a research room.

On the research table were two "antiques," two gun-shaped antiques.

If there were an operator who frequently runs dungeons, they would definitely recognize this as the famous smoothbore musket at a glance!

The only four-compartment red carabiner in the entire delta that can't fit into a safety box!

Extremely rare.

Besides the smoothbore musket, the research room also displays many rare red collectibles.

Military drones, ventilators, GTI satellite antennas for cameras... and other red collectibles are displayed in one cabinet after another.

Aside from the red collectibles, the research room itself is of immeasurable value, with various nanotech features, robotic arms, and even the walls made of a special alloy that even missiles cannot break through.

The middle-aged man standing in the middle of the research room didn't even glance at the red collectibles; his eyes were only on the two smoothbore guns on the research table.

It is worth noting that he was holding a strangely shaped blade in each hand, which turned out to be an extremely valuable ultrasonic cutter!

The sharpest knife in the world.

Any product from Delta Air Lines is guaranteed to be of the highest quality.

What the man is developing is to combine two smoothbore guns into one, that is, a true dual-wielded smoothbore gun! A man-made eight-grid red one!

If this research and development is successful, then humanity will possess weapons with unimaginable penetrability.

According to the man's idea, dual-wielding smoothbore guns could pierce through the strongest known vehicle with a single shot, a main battle tank developed based on a main battle tank model.

sizzle...

The ultrasonic cutter emits ultrasonic waves that are inaudible to the human ear, making it easy to cut through a smoothbore gun.

Cutting, assembling, inlaying... sealing.

The whole process was very slow because we had to be extremely careful, because if we were careless, the two smoothbore guns would become real antiques.

An hour later, beads of sweat appeared on the middle-aged man's forehead, but his eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Finally, the two smoothbore guns were joined together seamlessly, and the assembly of the dual-handled smoothbore guns was a success.

Next, let's talk about performance.

The man raised his dual-wielding smoothbore gun with both hands, aimed it at the wall, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Nothing happened.

"Failed...?" the man said calmly. "This time, the problem was with the gun barrel."

He cut open the priceless smoothbore musket, examined its interior, and fell into deep thought.

"The combination is already flawless, with no room for further improvement. In that case, the problem may lie in the energy."

Due to the structural limitations of dual-wielded smoothbore muskets, power alone is insufficient to propel the internal bullets.

But this is already the most powerful power system available. If even this power system isn't enough to make dual-wield smoothbore muskets work...

He was lost in thought.

Soon, his brilliant mind came up with another solution.

"If material bullets cannot be fired, what about in the form of energy? The mechanical power required by an energy cannon is far less than that of a material bullet. The mass of an energy bullet is almost negligible. As long as there is enough energy, there is no so-called structural obstacle."

His eyes grew brighter and brighter as he began to mentally rehearse the plan, which had a 50% chance of success!

In scientific research, a 10% chance is enough to invest funds to try research and development, and a 50% chance is enough to motivate any researcher to take actual action.

"High-energy gas tanks are too huge to be used as an energy source, while the smallest energy resource is... Pure Originium."

Excitement gleamed in the middle-aged man's eyes. With two smoothbore guns at hand, how could he not be excited?

Just as he found a pure Originium and was preparing for his initial experiment, a research assistant in a white lab coat pushed open the door and shouted:

"Doctor, Doctor, Miss Zoya has entered the subspace."

This middle-aged man was the highest-ranking researcher at the Academy of Sciences, and all other researchers were respectfully addressed as "Doctor".

And his name is,

Dr. Prometheus.

Delta live streaming, holographic projection... those groundbreaking scientific research projects were all led by him, and his contributions to reality are immeasurable.

He is a beacon of scientific research in reality.

Rometheus was very displeased with his impetuous assistant who barged in; he had repeatedly emphasized that he should not be interrupted during his research unless it was something important.

However, after hearing what his assistant said, his anger vanished completely, because for him, there were only two important things: scientific research and Zoya.

The latter is more important than the former.

"Doctor, you said that as long as Miss Zoya enters the subspace, you must be notified no matter what she is doing," the assistant whispered.

Rometheus asked seriously, "When did Zoya enter the subspace?"

"This afternoon."

"Was there a Sayyid traveling with us in the crowd?"

"Huh, Doctor, how did you know?"

Rometheus relaxed his brow and waved his hand. "I understand. You may leave."

"Okay, Doctor."

After the assistant left,

Rometheus put down the ultrasonic cutter, walked to the window, and opened it. The night breeze rushed in and was very refreshing.

He stared blankly at the high-hanging full moon and said softly, "This day has finally come."

He searched through his underwear for a while and finally found a pocket watch.

Click,

Open the pocket watch; inside is a full-color photograph.

The photo shows a blonde girl with a bright smile, making a peace sign with one hand.

Without a doubt, the girl in the photo is Zoya.

"Zoya..." Rometheus smiled warmly as he looked at Zoya's photo.

In this world, Zoya is not his lover, but his sister.

Why is Zoya so incredibly wealthy? It's because all of his research dividends are recorded under Zoya's name. These dividends generate an immeasurable amount of Haff coins every day, and all of these Haff coins end up in Zoya's bank account.

Zoya's smile was so radiant; he hadn't seen such a smile in over a decade.

As he laughed, Rometheus's smile suddenly turned bitter.

Because this cheerful Zoya doesn't belong to him. The Zoya who truly belongs to him is in the subspace, in GTI, and is his enemy.

"The future foreshadowed by the Mandel bricks has begun."

In the darkness of night, Rometheus's soft murmur could be heard.

……

Rometheus had a secret.

He has had the same dream every night for the past three years.

In his dream, he lived in a peaceful era and a peaceful country.

Here, he has a sister who is almost ten years younger than him, a "sister" who haunts his dreams.

I examine myself three times a day: generate electricity, generate electricity, generate electricity.
