My winter break homework was exposed, and I, a vocational school student, am now being snapped up by

The preparation process of star rock is very long.

From the moment we started, an hour and a half passed in the blink of an eye, but the entire preparation process was only a little over halfway complete.

The crowd gathered outside the laboratory had grown layer upon layer.

Everyone was curious about what Lin Chen was doing.

Having watched it all, no one can stand it if they don't see an ending.

The older folks didn't want to leave, and the newcomers, seeing the lively atmosphere, desperately squeezed in.

In the end, the teachers who were teaching in the building today were surprised to find that there wasn't a single student in their lab even though it was time for class.

What about people?

Several teachers inquired among themselves and soon learned about Lin Chen's situation.

Driven by curiosity, the teachers decided to go and take a look, and then they never returned.

As more and more people disappeared, it eventually alerted a big shot in the building.

This bigwig is Qian Runyang, Dean of the School of Chemistry.

He was in a lab on the top floor of the experimental building today, instructing a few postdoctoral fellows, when he suddenly heard about what was happening in the building.

Upon learning that many teachers' classes had been affected, Qian Runyang immediately became restless.

What exactly happened? Is it really necessary for you all to skip class?

Driven by curiosity, Qian Runyang immediately rushed to the scene.

As soon as he arrived, he caught several teachers who were supposed to be teaching.

"Old Xu! Wang Dong! Shouldn't you be in class right now?"

The teachers who had been grabbed by Dean Qian turned around and saw Dean Qian's resentful face, and immediately became flustered.

"Dean Qian, we are watching Lin Chen conduct an experiment."

"Lin Chen?"

Qian Runyang tried to peek into the laboratory, but his view was completely blocked by layers of people, and he couldn't see anything at all.

"He's conducting an experiment, why are so many of you getting involved?"

"Hey, you in front, move aside!"

The student blocking Qian Runyang's way was about to turn around and yell "Who are you?", but when he saw that the person behind him was actually Dean Qian, he immediately awkwardly stepped aside.

Qian Runyang used facial recognition to push his way forward and eventually stood at the very front.

Seeing that it was indeed Lin Chen conducting the experiment inside, he was about to ask Lin Chen what he was doing when he suddenly realized that the experiment this kid was doing seemed to be something special.

There are at least 20 kinds of materials on the table alone.

They even brought out all sorts of experimental equipment.

Watching Lin Chen perform the experimental steps with practiced movements, Qian Runyang found it hard to believe that the Lin Chen in front of him was the same person he had first brought to the experimental building not long ago!

How long has it been, and this kid is already so adept at doing experiments?

And what exactly was this experiment he conducted?

Why couldn't even the dean of the chemistry department see it?

Could it be a new experiment he came up with himself?

Before we knew it, another half hour had passed.

Lin Chen took a chemical reagent out of the ice water.

He obtained a grayish-white substance.

The substance looks somewhat like sand that has been mixed with water.

Is this Star Rock?

Lin Chen examined the substance in front of him.

Although he had the recipe for Star Rock, he had never seen the actual Star Rock.

Judging from its appearance alone, this thing really can only be described as utterly unremarkable.

However, since it's a system recipe, there's no need to doubt it.

Why don't you just give it a try?

Just as Lin Chen was about to find some tools to try, he heard a gasp from the doorway.

"Lin Chen! What are you doing?"

"Dean Qian?"

Lin Chen watched in surprise as Qian Runyang walked in.

The latter had been watching from the doorway the whole time.

As an expert in the field of chemistry, he naturally knew that the worst thing to do when someone is doing an experiment is to disturb them.

So he waited until Lin Chen seemed to have finished the experiment before coming in.

"Lin Chen, you've made quite a commotion today! The whole building has come to see your experiment. What on earth are you doing?"

"Playing...playing around?"

"what?"

Not only Dean Qian, but everyone present stared wide-eyed.

Just playing around?

So all that trouble you went through, and it turned out you were just playing around?

"Don't joke with me! Tell me what you're doing! So many materials, so many steps, I've never heard of preparing any material that requires so many things."

Qian Runyang looked incredulous.

"Um... I don't know what I'm doing... I'm just playing around."

The people at the entrance almost collapsed.

Wen Xiao, who was in the lab, rolled her eyes.

Little brother, your sister has been keeping you company for over two hours. Was it just to play with you?

"But Dean Qian, you've come at the right time. I have no idea what I've created. Could you take a look and give me an opinion?"

When Qian Runyang heard Lin Chen say that he was just playing around, he was about to criticize him, but when he saw what Lin Chen handed him, his eyes immediately became serious.

what is this?

Qian Runyang is a seasoned chemist who deals with all kinds of chemical substances every day, but he found that he couldn't tell what Lin Chen was holding for a moment.

This stuff looks like cement, but it's clearly not.

Upon closer inspection, it appears to be some kind of new compound.

What did you make it with?

"These on the sides have all been used."

Lin Chen pointed to the table next to him where the materials were placed.

"Used them all?"

Qian Runyang was immediately taken aback.

He originally thought that some of the materials on the side might just be sitting there unused, but he never expected that they would all come in handy.

But how come he didn't know that these 20-plus materials could be used to make this kind of thing?

Could this be some kind of unknown new species?

Qian Runyang's heart suddenly skipped a beat as a possibility came to mind.

Sometimes, history-making inventions are discovered unexpectedly.

Lin Chen said he was just playing around, but it's very likely that his nonchalant attitude broke the common sense of chemistry and might create something that people have never seen before.

"Dean Qian, I think this thing might be able to withstand high temperatures."

At this moment, Lin Chen suddenly spoke.

Qian Runyang frowned. High temperature resistant? Doesn't seem likely.

"High-temperature resistant materials generally have a special appearance. Their molecules are firmly aggregated and will not easily disperse due to thermal motion."

Generally, these kinds of materials have very smooth surfaces, like ceramics, but your material doesn't look like that.

Dean Qian is an authority in the School of Chemistry, and his words are generally not questioned.

Unfortunately, he ran into Lin Chen this time.

"No, Dean Qian, I think this thing might actually be heat-resistant. I made it, I have a feeling about it."

Qian Runyang was speechless. What was this premonition all about?

You're not doing divination, this is chemistry, it's science!

Lin Chen also knew that without evidence, others would naturally not believe him.

So he took a small piece of star rock, found a spray gun, and started spraying it.

Qian Runyang, who hadn't paid much attention before, suddenly narrowed his eyes when he saw this scene.

This thing actually seems to be heat-resistant?
