BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28
Yu Feng, on the other hand, remained calm.
When Jean said that, he wasn\'t surprised at all. It wasn\'t just because Jean liked him, but because Jean was also a top student. To some extent, she had the intention to compete with him.
Girls and boys naturally have a competitive nature!
Yu Feng\'s main concern was Hank\'s thoughts. After all, it was clear from earlier that Hank wanted him to specialize in design and manufacturing while guiding Jean in the study of genetics and genealogy. These two major categories encompassed numerous scientific fields, and it wouldn\'t be easy to learn, let alone master them even after ten years of research.
However, Hank never expected that Yu, this kid, would still not be satisfied.
As for Jean… she was simply a little tag-along to Yu, and Hank could choose to ignore what she had just said.
"Yu, are you sure you want to study both?" Hank didn\'t immediately reject the idea. He recalled the excitement in Yu\'s eyes when Professor X asked him to graduate early and become his research assistant. Hank also knew about Yu\'s "mutant ability" and his speed of memorization and learning, considering how Yu went to the library every day and read books at an exaggerated speed. It was too obvious.
However, the seemingly simple research projects of design and manufacturing and genetic and genealogy contained complex content that couldn\'t be mastered solely through speed memorization and learning.
Because these two types of research required not only solid and extensive knowledge in biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, mechanics, medicine, engineering, and more but also experimentation!
A significant amount of experimentation!
"Professor Hank, didn\'t you say that choosing is our freedom?" Yu Feng smiled confidently, "I think it\'s a waste of our talents to choose only one. Why not let both Jean and me choose? Who knows, we might surprise you?"
"Yes, Professor Hank, don\'t underestimate us!" Jean chimed in, even using an analogy from the Summoner\'s Rift, "Yu and I are the golden duo in the bot lane. As Yu said, it would be a waste of our talents to choose only one!"
"Um…" Watching the two of them exchange words, Hank opened his mouth, feeling somewhat speechless.
You two mischievous kids, you\'re not even grown up yet, but you\'re already like a married couple, responding to each other. Truly unbelievable.
Finally, with a helpless smile, he said, "Well, you two have defeated me! But let me make it clear here, if you find it tough and exhausting later on, there\'s no room for regrets! After all, studying and researching both major categories simultaneously will require far more than double the time for you!"
"Don\'t worry, Professor Hank, we won\'t regret it," Yu Feng assured him.
Of course, Yu Feng wouldn\'t regret it.
However, Hank\'s words were correct. Studying both design and manufacturing and genetics and genealogy would indeed require far more than double the time.
But it was worth it!
After all, Hank wasn\'t like those teachers who only taught boring courses. Hank was a true top scientist, one of the smartest people on Earth! With his personal guidance, what they would learn was genuinely useful. Spending a little more time was absolutely worth it!
Since the research projects for the future were determined, Hank didn\'t waste much time and immediately began explaining the relevant knowledge about genetics and genealogy, as well as the images projected on the wall, to Yu and Jean.
"I\'ve already told you the foundational knowledge required for studying genetic and genealogy, as well as the books you should read in detail," Hank said. At this moment, he was fully in the state of being a "teacher."
Yu Feng and Jean listened attentively with serious expressions.
They only had one hour fixed each day, and they were free to allocate the rest of their time.
Want to play? Sure, they could!
Want to study? Also allowed!
Besides that one hour, Hank would be busy with his own affairs—improving the base, optimizing various facilities, and building fighter jets. He couldn\'t micromanage them.
"With your intelligence and learning speed, you\'re no less competent than some graduate students at universities. So, when it comes to self-study and reading, I have complete confidence in both of you," Hank said, fully aware of Yu Feng and Jean\'s learning abilities. In other schools, they can be considered prodigies.
However, self-studying basic knowledge wasn\'t the focus here with Hank. He paused briefly and then his expression became slightly serious.
"Next, I want to talk to you about something very important regarding genetic and genealogy, especially in regards to the study of mutant genes," Hank said and specifically went into a separate control room inside the aircraft.
It\'s unclear what he did, but suddenly the entire place dimmed, replacing the blue light with a dim atmosphere. But soon, lights illuminated again.
Yu Feng and Jean widened their eyes and looked. They saw that where the lights were shining, there seemed to be a curtain, and on that curtain were projected fragmented and somewhat outdated images.
The images depicted individuals.
Dissected individuals who didn\'t look quite human, or rather… mutants! Each one even had accompanying written files!
