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

Soon after, Qian Runyang led the two to a corner of Longke University.

Lin Chen didn't recognize the place, but Wen Xiao, who had been at the school for three years, recognized it at a glance.

This place in front of us is the school's high-energy physics laboratory. Although it is affiliated with Longyan University of Science and Technology, it is also a national key laboratory!

Ordinary people can't get in!

Only doctoral supervisors and professors from relevant majors at Long University of Science and Technology are allowed inside.

Although Qian Runyang is the dean of the School of Chemistry, he does not have permission to enter this place.

However, on the way, he made a phone call to the head of the laboratory, Academician Gao Yang.

When the three arrived, Gao Yang was already waiting at the door.

Gao Yang, in his sixties, with a receding hairline, is an academician of the Longyan Academy of Sciences and the head of the High Energy Physics Laboratory.

Upon seeing Qian Runyang, he immediately smiled and waved: "Old Qian, what brings you here?"

"Just like I said in my text message, I need to borrow something from you!"

"Row."

Gao Yang nodded with a curious look, but suddenly saw Lin Chen behind Qian Runyang.

"Isn't this Lin Chen? What are you doing with Lao Qian?"

"The thing I'm going to test is what this kid made!"

"Oh?"

Gao Yang was immediately surprised. He had been busy with work and didn't pay much attention to what was happening outside.

But he was well aware of Lin Chen's achievements in the field of mathematics.

I never expected that this kid would start getting into chemistry again so soon?

"Stop talking nonsense and take us inside quickly!" Qian Runyang urged.

"Go, go, go."

Although Gao Yang was curious, he didn't take Lin Chen's things too seriously, thinking that it was probably just a whim of Qian Runyang.

After all, Lin Chen is only a freshman... oh no, by the second half of the year, this kid should be a PhD.

But what's so special about a chemistry experiment conducted by a math PhD?

Under Gao Yang's personal guidance, the three entered what is probably one of the most heavily guarded laboratories at Long University of Science and Technology.

Even with Gao Yang present, the three of them still went through layers of security checks and signed various confidentiality agreements before finally entering the laboratory.

Looking at the guards scattered throughout the laboratory, with sentries every five steps, Wen Xiao felt incredibly excited.

This is a place she may never be able to enter in her entire life.

I never imagined that just helping out a junior today would give me the chance to come in and see for myself!

Thinking about it this way, all the hard work I went through was worth it!

The three of them made their way to the depths of the laboratory when an old voice suddenly rang out from the side.

"Old Gao, how did these two students get in? As the person in charge here, isn't this a bit against the rules?"

The four turned their heads and saw an old figure walking over from the side.

"Bai Lao!"

Qian Runyang recognized the other person and immediately nodded in greeting.

"Lao Bai?"

Wen Xiao recognized the other person, her mouth slightly open, unable to hide her excitement.

This Mr. Bai is also one of the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a leading figure in the field of chemistry in China, having won the National Natural Science Award multiple times.

Students studying chemistry at Long University of Technology cannot possibly be unaware of this bigwig who has already appeared in textbooks.

"Mr. Bai, it's Mr. Qian who needs to borrow the equipment here for an experiment..."

Although Gao Yang was the head of the laboratory, he was still very polite to Bai Lao.

He had barely finished explaining when he was interrupted by Elder Bai.

"Nonsense! Shouldn't we follow procedures to borrow equipment? Why not just bring the person here directly? How can you, as the person in charge, lead the way in breaking rules and regulations?"

Gao Yang knew he was in the wrong, so he could only force a smile.

Seeing this, Qian Runyang had no choice but to explain on behalf of his old friend: "Old Bai, we really have an urgent matter. This student Lin Chen may have discovered a new high-temperature resistant material... This material is very likely the legendary Star Rock!"

"Star Rock? Are you kidding me? That legendary..."

Old Bai looked disdainful, but as he was speaking, he suddenly realized something.

"Wait, you mean Lin Chen? He's Lin Chen?"

Old Bai's gaze fell on Lin Chen, sizing him up from head to toe, clearly indicating that he had heard of Lin Chen's name.

"That's right, this substance was created by Lin Chen. We have already tested it once at a high temperature of 1,000 degrees Celsius. The properties of this substance are indeed very similar to the legendary star rock."

"How is that possible? Isn't he a mathematician?"

Old Bai was a bit dumbfounded. How could a mathematician have created Star Rock?

"Hello, Mr. Bai, I did it by accident."

Lin Chen explained with a smile.

Old Bai's lips twitched slightly.

What a coincidence!

Since its formation, countless scientists have tried to uncover the secrets of star rocks.

Because the value of Star Rock is too great!

A substance that can withstand temperatures of 10,000 degrees Celsius would be of immeasurable value if it could be applied in real-world applications.

Not to mention aerospace applications, star rocks can be extremely useful even in daily life.

For example, if star rock were used to coat firefighters' protective suits, countless lives could be saved every year.

However, since the birth of Star Rock, more than thirty years have passed, and no one has successfully replicated the Star Rock formula.

Until the barber who invented Star Rock went to his grave, Star Rock became nothing more than a legend.

Even Western scientists who believe in God describe Star Rock as a groundbreaking invention, saying that God didn't want humanity to acquire it too early, so He sent the barber with the formula to heaven.

Now a student is actually claiming that he created Star Rock?

The key point is that he studies mathematics!

"Explain yourself clearly! What exactly happened?"

While calming his excited emotions, Old Bai asked.

Lin Chen then told the story of how he had unintentionally created Star Rock, which he had prepared beforehand.

Old Bai had an incredulous expression on his face.

Reason told him that this was simply unrealistic.

So many scientists have spent decades trying to find something, and you just stumbled upon it by accident?

However, considering that the inventor of Star Rock was just a barber, a young genius who studied mathematics, it seems quite reasonable.

"Alright, since you put it that way, I really want to know if this thing is really that amazing!"

Seeing that Elder Bai finally nodded, Gao Yang immediately arranged for people to prepare for the experiment.

However, like Qian Runyang, he also encountered the problem of not having any raw eggs.

"How about we use my fingers instead?"

Lin Chen suggested.

But his proposal was immediately opposed by everyone.

"Lin Chen! This is a temperature of 10,000 degrees Celsius. If your material wasn't star rock, you might not even be alive!"

"That……"

"I have an apple here!"

Old Bai pulled an apple out of his pocket and said, "If you don't have eggs, this will do just as well!"

"alright."

Lin Chen took the apple and, as before, applied the star rock to its surface.

Soon, the apple was placed in the laboratory with the laser device.

By this time, the security observation room next door was already packed with onlookers who had come after hearing the news.

However, their identities made Wen Xiao, who was just an ordinary student, tremble with fear.

Almost all the people who appear in this laboratory are elderly professors.

Any one of them would be someone that Wen Xiao, a young man, would have to look up to.

These professors and bigwigs all rushed over after hearing about Xingyan.

Although some of them are not experts in the field of chemistry, each of them shares a common identity.

Those are scientists from China!

If the matter of Star Rock is proven true, then China's scientific field will surpass and lead in many areas in the future.

That is the immense value of Star Rock.

The mere thought of this possibility is enough to excite anyone.

"Lin Chen, this is the activation button for the laser device. Here you go."

Old Bai pushed Lin Chen in front of a button and gestured to him.

Star Rock was created by Lin Chen, and Elder Bai hoped that this historically significant moment would also be accomplished by Lin Chen.

Actually, Qian Runyang also wanted to press the button, but he dared not be presumptuous in front of Elder Bai.

Lin Chen didn't stand on ceremony and pressed the device button directly.
