Hearing Bai Wu'an's words, Le Yiwen's mouth curled up slightly, and he casually tapped a few times on the virtual keyboard in mid-air.
Immediately, the once-empty studio suddenly displayed experimental showcases wrapped in high-density alloy, one after another.
One showcase abruptly opened, and a box popped out from within.
Under Le Yiwen's control, the box began to morph, twist, and eventually transformed into a semi-transparent mask.
"This thing's stability is yet to be determined. I haven't started mass production. If you're willing, you can help me by conducting a small experiment."
Le Yiwen looked at Bai Wu'an, speaking calmly.
Meanwhile, Bai Wu'an wore a meaningful smile.
He then turned to Su Tu and said, "Junior brother, just go boldly. If the Wang Family acts decently, then everyone can maintain decorum. But if they don't..."
Bai Wu'an flashed a sinister smile and continued, "Then I will help them maintain it..."
Su Tu, with his sharp intellect, guessed Bai Wu'an's intentions when he first inquired about Le Yiwen's experimental item.
Initially, he thought Senior Brother Bai wanted to infiltrate to protect him, in case the Wang Family tried anything untoward.
But now, seeing Senior Brother Bai's stance, if the Wang Family indeed tries anything, the Chen Family in the fortress might end up like a group of transgressors...
This sort of thing can't be taken lightly. Su Tu's options are limited, so having his senior brother protect him is naturally advantageous.
Su Tu understood clearly, and looked at Bai Wu'an, saying, "Then I'll trouble you, senior brother."
However, his words did not receive a response from Bai Wu'an.
Instead, the previously menacing Bai Wu'an was now lying on the sofa, clutching a bun, and had fallen asleep, even snoring.
This made Su Tu shake his head helplessly.
His second senior brother truly was an eccentric person, acting as he pleased, leaving no room for leeway.
Seeing Bai Wu'an asleep, Le Yiwen, who usually seemed at odds with him, took out a blanket and draped it over Bai Wu'an with surprising thoughtfulness.
He then gestured to Su Tu, signaling him to another room.
The two entered a room where they had previously worked on three-four integrations, and Su Tu skillfully found a chair to sit on.
He sharply sensed that Third Senior Brother had something to say to him.
Le Yiwen didn't sit down but leaned against the wall, turned to Su Tu, and said, "Don't blame your second senior brother for falling asleep as soon as he speaks. He's been exhausted these years and can barely relax only here."
Su Tu waved it off, saying, "There's nothing to blame. We are family after all. Second senior brother is indeed weary; I can sense it. Though his demeanor is strong, it's precisely because he's too strong, with only charge, no relaxation."
"Second Senior Brother, he's military, isn't he?"
Su Tu said.
From the moment he first saw Bai Wu'an, Su Tu had a feeling. The other's style was incredibly decisive and left no room, much like the military's style.
Coupled with the earlier conversation between Bai Wu'an and Le Yiwen, Su Tu had already guessed the seventy-eighty percent about this Bai Senior Brother's identity.
"Bai Wu'an was right; your analysis of information and intelligence is indeed astonishingly strong."
Le Yiwen raised a finger and waggled it at Su Tu.
"You're right. Your second senior brother comes from a military background and was once the youngest 'General Star'!"
Upon hearing this, Su Tu's eyes flickered suddenly.
General Star is the most unique position in the entire Federation military system. It is not a rank but a supreme honor.
One can only earn the title of 'General Star' after earning significant battle merits consecutively and being recognized by three Supremes.
The Federation Military District has numerous excellent military warrior strategists, but only one military is qualified to become a 'General Star' every ten years.
In today's Star River, which wears the guise of a great peaceful era, the essence remains survival of the fittest, and the military district's status in the Federation is self-evident.
And every General Star is a contender for the highest command in the future military district. Once one becomes a General Star, they have already set one foot in the military district's power center, and it can be said they have stepped into the power center of the Federation!
"Back then, our master wanted to reopen the Dao Lineage but was rejected. This hit him hard, and death arose in his heart. We sensed something was wrong and started seeking paths everywhere, trying to extend master's life."
"Each of us had our own ideas and scattered in all directions."
Le Yiwen adjusted his rimless glasses, a hint of reminiscence flashing in his eyes.
"My approach was to combine various researches with my own Dao, attempting to find new treatments for master. Xiao chose to explore various ruins, hoping to find life-saving arts from relics."
"Four went to the Foreign Race, hoping to learn from others, while First Senior Brother began searching for Immortal Divine traces, attempting to find a cure for master from them."
"I thought that when news of Douluo Palace relics appearing on Ancestor Star came, First Senior Brother would return." As Le Yiwen said this, his eyes wavered but quickly regained composure.
"Most of us, we were thinking of extending master's life. But only Bai Wu'an chose a different path. He wanted to join the military, aiming to enter the power center.
He aimed to use his power alone to influence the entire Federation, allowing the revival of the Dao Lineage, to mend the reflections within the Other Shore!"
