Starting from the Planetary Governor

Gu Hang could not let Wu Jiarong abandon her work.

Without her, they could hardly expect those who were, at best, junior technicians to solve those scientific research problems.

If Wu Jiarong taught students, all research work would operate at half efficiency.

But without teaching students or building schools, Gu Hang's predicament would never end.

If it were someone else, there might be no solution at all.

However, Gu Hang still had one.

"You'll have to hold on for a little longer," Gu Hang said, "the construction of the school will start soon. We may have to sacrifice half our time, but I believe we will soon make up for this lost time."

Wu Jiarong said, "Teaching a qualified technical specialist, even a mechanic, is very difficult. It requires many years of study."

"I know, but maybe we have a genius in Rage Owl Star?"

"I hope so."

Gu Hang's solution was to first establish a Technical Academy, then use the [Construction] interface to apply the [Technical Academy I] template to it, consistent with the operation plan of Loyal Heir Academy.

The exchange value of [Technical Academy I] was only 500 grace points.

And this building had actually two functions:

1. To improve students' learning efficiency

2. To increase the likelihood of emerging technically talented individuals who could be activated.

The former is certainly useful, but what could quickly solve Gu Hang's current dilemma was the latter.

Once there was such a technically talented individual who could be activated, the grace points spent on the activation would immediately endow them with attribute points, allowing for a rapid improvement in their technical level.

It would definitely not reach Wu Jiarong's current level, but at least it could become a competent assistant or independently handle some research work with a determined direction, even a settled plan.

Relieving some of Wu Jiarong's work pressure was also good.

And Gu Hang planned to build this academy in Weixing City.

After all, compared to Revival City, which was more geared toward administration, commerce, and light industry, Weixing City was the production center that needed technical talents more. There was no need for Wu Jiarong to travel dozens of kilometers to Revival City for work.

Saving this precious technical talent's commuting time was saving time needed for the planet's development.

The rapid development of the entire alliance needed to be healthier, and there were still too many fundamentals to be supplemented.

Sometimes, Gu Hang still wished he could stumble upon another expert in technology. That would be great.

...

Sometimes, Hu Ke still wished for a stable life where his son and daughter could grow up healthy and happy. That would be great.

At that moment, he was blending in with a group of refugees, holding a pot of thin gruel in his hands.

This was according to the food ration allocated for his family of four.

A bowl of thin gruel to last a day.

Back in his dwelling—a shabby tent constructed from tattered cloth and building debris that could, at most, measure three to four square meters—he, his wife, his six-year-old son, and his four-year-old daughter lived temporarily.

The conditions were undoubtedly harsh, not only in terms of living space but also the sanitary environment.

However, Hu Ke was actually relieved.

At least, it was better than when they were fleeing previously.

Escaping from the southern end of the Green Valley Region all the way north reminded him of his experience of fleeing to Rage Owl Star from his hometown over two hundred years ago.

Of course, when speaking of over two hundred years ago, that was in terms of real time, the actual feeling for him was not as long.

He came from 'Chong Lu Fortress Casting World', and when he left there, he was already an 'Engine Prophet'— a 'title' within the Sect of Mechanics, one level higher than a Mechanical Priest.

He was a technical expert. Enjoy more content from M-V-L

As for why he left Chonglu Fort...

It was because of war.

Chonglu Fort was probably dragged into hell by now, no longer existing in the real universe.

In that war, he fled for his life and, in the final moments, boarded a spaceship in a panic and left his homeland.

After getting on the spaceship, he drifted in space for a few years and spent some time in the Star Realm Army, but he really couldn't stand the war anymore.

He knew that in this turbulent universe, war always existed. But as long as it wasn't happening before his eyes, that was enough.

He admitted he was a coward, but he absolutely did not want to return to the battlefield and witness slaughter again.

As for those wars still raging, let them be. Although the status of an Engine Prophet was not low, what could he decide in the vast universe?

Tired of everything, Hu Ke only wanted to find a secure, peaceful, and beautiful planet to spend the rest of his life.

Indeed, the entire universe was always at war. But that was when looking at the entire empire. Zooming in on individual planets, the situations were different.

Among many options, he chose Rage Owl Star.

The scenery was beautiful, productivity was fairly advanced, and thanks to the Spiritualized Gas Field energy industry, it wasn't too competitive. The social atmosphere was stable, and more importantly, there hadn't been a war for thousands of years, whether from invaders or internal strife, it was rare, or at least the impact was minimal.

It was a place that met his requirements.

So, he went there.

With his expertise, he applied and joined a Gene Research Institute on Rage Owl Star.

It wasn't difficult; he was an Engine Prophet from the Mechanical Cult Guild and had made outstanding contributions to genetic engineering—though he was slightly less knowledgeable in other areas.
