The Strongest War God - Chapter 67
67 The Three Major Organizations Gather at Preston University
“Give me a reason to help you!” Braydon Neal was not impervious to her.
“Then, I won’t hide things from you. Another martial artist was born in the third generation of the Thomas family last night. He’s two years younger than Joseph!” Xana Thomas said seriously.
Braydon looked at her and seemed to have understood something.
In a family like the Thomas family, which had more than a hundred members, it could be considered a small family. The members of the family lived together, and the family rules were strict.
!!
However, the way they were educated was the survival of the fittest.
When they were all grown up, they would be sent out of the company as middle-ranking leaders, or they would be sent to work in a small company under the group.
Those that were outstanding would naturally take on the core positions of Thomas Corporation, and the most outstanding direct children would undoubtedly take over as the chairman of the Thomas corporation.
There was another martial artist in the third generation of the Thomas family. He was younger than Joseph Thomas, which meant he had more potential.
This was a direct threat to Joseph’s position as the heir.
In addition, the Thomas family’s main business had changed to a technology company that did software development and electronic device processing.
As for the future use of the anti-gravity device, the Thomas family had already smelled a huge business opportunity!
If they could participate in this in any way possible, they would still make a shocking profit!
“Genius Neal, do me a favor!” Xana said pitifully.
“Joseph is an unpredictable person. It’s good for him to choose martial arts and give up his position as the chairman of the Thomas family!” Braydon did not say no to her request.
Xana forced a smile. “It’s not as simple as you think. I’m not afraid of you getting angry, so let’s take the Neal family as an example. You’ve been fighting non-stop all these years. How many of us young people from the seven great families are easy to deal with?
“Once Joseph is at a disadvantage, my father’s authority in the family will be greatly reduced. Neither of my two uncles are kind!
“At that point, I will also be affected negatively. As a child of a rich family, I won’t be able to decide my own marriage!”
…
Xana smiled bitterly and helplessly.
She was born into a rich family, had no worries about food and clothing, and grew up with a golden spoon in her mouth. She was the envy and jealousy of many of her peers.
However, the politics in the rich and powerful families, as well as the selection of marriage partners, were all related to the family, so they would not let the children themselves make the decision.
“You’re exaggerating!” Braydon smiled.
“Bro, do you think everyone is like you? Living a life in the northern territory, growing up in the northern military school, and is famous in the northern army. You’re the standard God’s favored son. You’re also the eldest son of the Neal family. Do you think the Neal family would dare to force you?”
Xana rolled her eyes.
She and Joseph were different from Braydon. If Joseph were to lose his power, he would have a very miserable ending in the Thomas family.
Braydon laughed and nodded lightly, agreeing to this matter.
It was a small matter to begin with.
However, regarding the anti-gravity device, Dawson Lablanc and those under him were obviously not being ethical.
The news had already been reported by all the major media outlets in Preston. Dawson and the eight students were all placed under the spotlight, but Braydon’s name was not mentioned.
However, this anti-gravity device was built by Braydon!
Xana stomped her feet in anger. “This group of people has crossed the line! Let’s go! I’ll take you to them!”
Braydon sat calmly, tapping the table with his fingers. He was not in a hurry.
In the scientific research exhibition hall, the delegation of the top three domestic organizations were seated and listening to Dawson’s lecture as well as various data on the anti-gravity device!
Dawson slowly said, “Everyone, this is the world’s first anti-gravity machine. It can float up to ten meters in the no-load state and can bear a hundred pounds. The driving energy is electricity!”
The representative of the Eastern Organization was an old professor with more than ten people behind him, quietly listening to Dawson’s story.
“Amazing! As expected of a professional who has devoted decades of effort to anti-gravity!” He was full of praise.
“The finished product is complete. It’s already at the forefront of the world!” Someone else agreed.
However, there was a girl sitting in the exhibition hall. She had a noble and dignified temperament, short hair, and a faint smile. “Professor Lablanc, did you really make this anti-gravity device?”
The person who spoke was Xandra Milton!
As the president of the Asia Pacific Investment Group, Xandra was in charge of hundreds of billions of liquid funds and was the God of Fortune. Among the three major organizations present, she was definitely the most important.
Dawson was silent for a moment, obviously unable to answer.
Quentin Hunt stood up with the microphone in his hand and laughed. What do you mean, Miss Xandra? This anti-gravity device came from our research lab, and there’s only one in the world. My teacher has spent decades on it, and there’s no doubt about it!”
“Quentin Hunt, you must be feeling guilty!”
At the entrance of the exhibition hall, Xana’s eyes were filled with anger.
The anti-gravity device was clearly Braydon’s, but it was stolen by these people.
Braydon stood with his hands behind his back, looking at them quietly.
The representative of the last organization was a middle-aged man. He had been quiet in the exhibition hall for a long time. He had always had doubts about the anti-gravity machine.
This kind of thing was non-existent in the world. How could it be so easily created by a simple research lab at Preston University?
It was either a scam, or there was a demon helping them.
The middle-aged man, Colin Spades, had never believed that the anti-gravity device came from Dawson’s hands. He had investigated this place before coming. The equipment here was simple and crude, and for decades, he had made no achievements in the anti-gravity field.
He had not even published two academic papers!
This kind of research lab had supposedly created an anti-gravity device overnight.
This was simply a joke!
Quentin’s face darkened. “Xana, this is the exhibition hall for finished research products. Who let you in? Security, get her out!”
The six security guards at the door looked a little embarrassed. To be honest, they were just small figures who were getting paid a salary and did not want to offend anyone.
Braydon was the youngest Dean-level professor since the establishment of the school, so the security guards did not dare to offend him.
“The six of you, do you still want to work here?” Quentin was furious.
The six security guards’ hearts trembled.
Xandra chuckled. “Why are you so flustered? Are you afraid that someone will reveal the truth?”
“Miss Xandra, please don’t bear a grudge and hurt my teacher just because we rejected your funding last night!”
Quentin was eloquent, and his tone was even more aggressive.
Xandra was exasperated. She had never seen such a shameless person.
“I’m ashamed that Preston University has teachers and students like you,” she shouted. “You’re so deceitful, stealing other people’s achievements, and yet you’re bragging about it. Do you still have any shame left in you?”
“What?”
The representative of the Eastern Organization, the old professor, was shocked.
In the field of scientific research, such scandals happened every year. Plagiarizing academic papers and stealing other people’s research results were common.
Colin sat calmly at the side, as if he had already expected this.
“Director, are we still going to continue working with them?” the assistant asked in a low voice.
“Of course, we have to cooperate, but the target can’t be them. They’re just a bunch of liars!”
Colin was one of the three directors of the R&D department in a civil aviation manufacturing company.
He was not good at research and development, nor did he know how to make things, but he knew how to manage people, and he knew how to explore everyone’s strengths. He was even better at poaching people!
Colin could tell at a glance that people like Quentin were ambitious and were destined to have little success in the field of scientific research.
Quentin sneered. “Xandra, you’re saying that my research lab stole someone else’s research. May I ask if you have any evidence?”
