Chapter 1344 - Deep into Hell!
Chapter 1344: Deep into Hell!
“Unbelievable.”
It was impossible to describe the feeling in Professor Gerhard Ertl’s heart.
He was sitting in the director’s office of the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society. He looked at the paper in his hand. Dumbfounded, he didn’t speak for a while.
As the director of the Fritz Haber Institute and the 2007 Nobel Prize winner, he was in the field of theoretical chemistry and computational materials science, specifically in the field of solid surface chemistry. He was the first one to write a letter of recommendation to the Nobel Prize Committee.
Professor Klitzing had been sitting in this office for a long time. He was playing with the tea set on the coffee table. He raised his head and looked over.
“It seems you found something interesting.”
Although his research direction was not computational materials science, it was condensed matter physics, and computational materials science itself was a discipline derived from the research of condensed matter physics.
Especially for the study of multi-particle complex systems, many computational materials science methods, including first-principles calculations, used physics equations.
From this perspective, this paper not only had outstanding academic value in the field of materials science but also had considerable research value in the field of physics.
And this was one of the reasons why Professor Klitzing, the director of the Institute of Physics, made a special trip to this office.
In addition, another thing that interested him was what ignited Lu Zhou’s curiosity so much that he even resigned from the ILHCRC board of directors.
But compared to the former, the latter was just a trivial matter.
“It’s more than interesting.” Professor Ertl said with a sigh after closing the paper in his hand, “This is beyond my imagination.”
Professor Klitzing asked curiously, “What does it mean?”
“Computational materials science is now at a new level. He not only provided a new research method on the basis of the previous theory but also provides an effective mathematical approach for the study of complex molecular systems. I think you don’t know what I’m saying. This is a miracle!
“At least for me, this is a Nobel Prize level achievement… But it probably doesn’t mean anything to him. It is impossible for the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences to award him again.”
Gerhard Ertl suddenly stopped talking. He looked up to the ceiling and muttered, “Just now, I suddenly had some new ideas. Maybe I should learn from him… and retreat for a period of time, for two days… No, for the rest of the month, don’t bother to find me.”
Professor Klitzing: “You plan to go on a retreat too? But I heard… This time he didn’t go on a retreat.”
Ertl looked at him blankly and asked, “Where did you hear that?”
“Technically, it’s my educated guess.” Professor Klitzing shrugged and said, “Because it hasn’t been that long since he announced his resignation from the ILHCRC board of directors… You know, I just went to Shanghai a while ago.”
Gerhard Ertl went silent. After a while, he sighed. “Okay then, let’s forget about it then.
“Anyway… I want to be alone.”
…
Although Lu Zhou had actually expected the sensation in the materials science field, he didn’t expect the reaction to be this extreme.
But then he thought about it carefully and figured out the reason.
As opposed to being surprised at his research results, people were more surprised that he actually chose to return to the field of materials science after he reached the pinnacle of achievement in physics.
This was what no one expected.
[Congratulations, User, for completing the reward mission!]
[The mission completion details are as follows: The unexpected return has shocked the entire materials science community. Mankind’s greatest scholar stands at the top of mathematics and physics. What changes will he bring to materials science, one of the three pillars of modern science and technology…]
[Evaluation: (no evaluation for reward missions)]
[Mission reward: One million materials science experience points, 500,000 experience points, a legendary mission card, 3,000 general points.]
A total of 1.5 million experience points and a legendary mission card; this reward was quite generous.
If it weren’t for the reward mission, the research results alone would not be worthy of such a generous reward.
However, considering that the measuring function for the reward was the degree of sensation, this reward did seem to be too outrageous.
As for why…
The description of the mission made it clear.
Lu Zhou stood in the pure white system space. As he looked at the holographic panel, his materials science progress bar increased by one third. Lu Zhou thought for a while about the 500,000 experience points. He allocated 200,000 of it to engineering, bringing his engineering level to level 8.
As for the remaining experience points, they were all allocated to biochemistry, which was closely related to materials science.
After the experience points allocation was over, a layer of light blue ripples swept across the translucent holographic screen. The updated characteristic panel soon appeared in front of him.
[
A. Mathematics: Level 10
B. Physics: Level 10
C. Biochemistry: Level 7 (710,000/1.2 million)
D. Engineering: Level 8 (0/3 million)
E. Materials Science: Level 8 (63,000/3 million)
F. Energy Science: Level 7 (0/1.2 million)
G. Information science: Level 7 (100,000/1.2 million)
General points: 38,335

“Materials and engineering have reached level 8…
“It’s getting harder and harder to level up.”
However, this also meant that he was getting closer and closer to reaching the maximum of level 10 in all fields.
After closing the characteristic panel, Lu Zhou opened the inventory and selected the card that was glowing quietly in his inventory.
“If only it was a golden card…”
Lu Zhou sighed and reached out. He tapped on the mission card.
Soon after, a pale wave of golden ripples appeared around his index finger, eventually covering the entire translucent holographic screen. As the golden ripples gradually dissipated, a mission interface that looked unusual appeared in front of him.
[Begin legendary mission: Deep into hell!]
[Description: The Earth-Moon system has been dominated by civilization. The planted seeds will grow into towering trees. However, the human desire for living space is endless, even for an uninhabited desert…]
[Requirements: Complete the Mars manned landing plan within this year!]
[Reward: Experience points, general points, and item rewards are determined by the number of people who have landed on Mars and the time taken!]
Deep into hell?
Why do I feel like…
The moment Lu Zhou saw this mission, he had a bad feeling in his heart…
