Chapter 97 Reaching Consensus
The next day, feeling refreshed, Glenn got up early, washed up, and headed to the Stellar Energy Driven Research Council.
Today, besides giving Kieran a decision, Glenn also wants to take advantage of the situation—oh, no, I mean, sincerely ask for advice on some more core issues, such as the construction method of the large clock.
Upon entering, Karl, who seemed to have been waiting in the hall, hurriedly came to greet them; his voice reached them even before he arrived.
"Shadow, I've been waiting for you here for a long time."
Glenn replied in astonishment:
"Why are you waiting for me here? Didn't I tell you I could go in by myself?"
"Haha! Um! The teacher told me to wait here."
Carl was honest enough to betray Kieran. He doesn't yet possess the strategic brilliance to plan ahead and win battles from afar; right now, he's just a talented researcher.
"Oh I got it."
Upon hearing this, Glenn understood. So Kieran was really eager for this! He understood.
Glenn smiled slightly, grabbed Carl, and walked inside, clearly intending to see Principal Kieran.
With Glenn's arrival, it was clear that the atmosphere inside the research institute had changed.
Just like yesterday, Principal Kiran was waiting there. Although the other researchers were working, their unwavering gazes spoke volumes, showing how much they cared about the matter of the Angel Civilization settling in.
"Shadow King, I hope you can bring us good news today."
Kieran's weathered voice rang out, immediately drawing the attention of everyone in the hall. The fervor in their eyes was enough to devour Glenn alive.
Glenn, undaunted, approached Kieran, looked him over, and then smiled as he spoke:
"More than that, I'd like to know what price you're willing to pay for this. Let's not even talk about the light of the sun; I'm actually not interested in it. After all, everything is in vain until there are results. As for the stellar energy-driven technology data you gave me, I believe it's not very valuable to you, don't you think?"
Glenn's words completely baffled the researchers, and Carl was also dumbfounded.
At this moment, Glenn's face practically screamed "profiteering from the chaos." Although he was wearing a mask, it didn't stop them from seeing through it!
Kieran stared intently at Glenn after hearing this, wanting to see if his heart was black. Wasn't this going a bit too far?
Glenn wasn't embarrassed at all. Before he came, Glenn had already planned that he wouldn't tell Keisha and the others about their decision unless he brought something good! If Glenn didn't tell them, they wouldn't know Keisha's opinion. After all, this was essentially a monopoly, and there was only one way to go.
The two stared at each other for a long time, and then Kieran seemed to give in, and spoke:
"Since Your Majesty the Shadow King is not interested in those things, what would you like to know? Or rather, what would you like to know?"
Glenn's eyes lit up beneath his mask, then he smiled and said:
"Ah! Principal Kiran, please don't say that. This is a transaction of equal interests. I have made a considerable contribution to this matter. I can still change the Queen's opinion to some extent."
As the principal of the Super God Academy, he could still sense such an obvious threat, so he spoke in as calm a tone as possible:
"Alright! State your conditions."
This time, Glenn stopped being sarcastic and said directly:
"I heard that the Shenhe civilization once built a celestial computer called the Great Clock, right?"
"Ok!"
In an instant, the temperature in the entire core area dropped several degrees. Principal Kiran's voice was no longer weathered, but cold and sharp, with a chilling tone that suggested he was about to start a fight at the slightest provocation.
"Your Excellency Shadow King, you mean... you want the Great Clock?"
Before Glenn could answer, Kieran's aura suddenly intensified. Although he wasn't the kind of god focused solely on battle, as the first god of the Divine River Civilization, he couldn't possibly hand over the highest achievement of that civilization. So he spoke again, emphatically:
"Furthermore, I don't think you have the ability to obtain that item, nor does the Angelic Civilization, do you agree?"
The terrifying aura did not put any pressure on Glenn, so he smiled and said:
"Hey! Principal Kiran, isn't this a bit unnecessary? I never said I wanted your giant clock, did I?"
"Ok?"
Upon hearing this, Kieran was stunned. He unconsciously withdrew his aura and looked at Glenn strangely. What did this guy mean? Moreover, the guy in front of him did not react at all under his aura. He was definitely not simple.
Didn't you see the sweat pouring down the other researchers' faces? They were intimidated by Principal Kieran's imposing presence.
As things gradually returned to normal, Principal Kiran asked:
"What do you mean?"
"hehe!"
Trying to scare me? Dream on!
Glenn's smile faded, and he said solemnly:
"Actually, I just wanted to refer to the construction data of the Great Clock. Although I can't reach the level of the Great Clock, building a low-end version would be enough. After all, I don't have the strength of the Divine River Civilization, right?"
"I see!"
Kieran breathed a sigh of relief. He knew he couldn't hand over the Great Clock, but the construction data of the Great Clock was another matter. After all, without strength and resources, even if the construction data was right in front of you, you wouldn't know where to start and would just stare blankly.
After much deliberation, Kieran agreed:
"If that's all there is to it, I can agree to your request. However, I must remind you that the existence of the Great Clock is unique, and it is impossible for another one to appear."
While speaking, they stopped using honorifics, which shows that they had a lot of opinions about Glenn.
"Then thank you in advance, Principal Kieran. I will tell you the Queen's decision and conditions now."
Glenn breathed a sigh of relief when Kieran agreed, finally getting what he wanted. He then told Kieran and the others about the results of their discussion.
In an instant, the previously oppressive atmosphere became cheerful, and Glenn sensed Principal Kieran's excitement.
"Hmph! Let you be smug for now. Keisha will catch you off guard later, hehehe!"
Glenn thought happily to himself that the goal had been basically achieved, and all that was left was to try to build up various results, which would be a lot of work.
After everyone's initial excitement subsided, Glenn asked:
“Principal Kieran, when do you need to travel to the Angel Nebula? I need to inform the Queen so that they can make preparations.”
After calming himself down, Kieran hesitated for a moment before replying:
"We cannot go to the Angel Nebula yet. We still have a lot of work to do. In addition to the results of the Sunlight project, we need to prepare two other research projects. We hope that when we go to the Angel Nebula, we can show the Queen our sincerity. Furthermore, the construction of the Deno Twin Stars still depends on us. We can only go to the Angel Nebula after it can operate on its own."
Upon hearing this, Glenn instinctively asked:
"How long will it take you?"
"Ok?"
Kieran thought for a moment and gave a rough timeframe:
"At least a thousand years from now! It'll be very soon."
"millennium?"
Glenn was somewhat surprised. Good heavens, these guys are workaholics! They're working on a scale of millennia.
That's true. For them, who have escaped the limitations of lifespan, time is simply a measurable unit.
"Alright! I'll tell the Queen that you can go directly there when you arrive. Let's get down to business now."
Glenn casually mentioned it, but then urged Kieran to keep his promise.
Helpless, Kieran had no choice but to have Carl lead Glenn to the archives to check the construction data of the Great Clock.
