Nicholas had been deluded by Lu Zhiyu with his stargate transfer, anti-gravity technology, gene-editing technology, bio-technology warehouse, and the antimatter starship, using positron as fuel. Lu Zhiyu had quoted a series of highly technological stuff.
He had successfully gained the trust of Nicholas Debye, thanks to his supernatural powers and promises. Both of them had come to an agreement that Nicholas would register a new company, AB Technology Company Limited, which was the abbreviation for astral businessmen.
Nicholas had transferred two of his companies under AB Technology, one of which was Bio-technology Company Limited. Lu Zhiyu had requested for the laboratory staff and researchers to be transferred as well. Another was a company in the United States, which dealt with satellite communications.
This included a private island that Nicholas had owned in the South Pacific, known as Byrne Island. This island was a private property of the Debye family, and did not belong to any country. It took its name after Nicholas’ great-grandfather. It had been built for many decades, and had a small landing field. Yet the area itself was big.
Lu Zhiyu would build his base there, and try to repair and rebuild his starship. After which, he would return to his planet. This was what Lu Zhiyu had told Nicholas Debye. What he truly wanted, however, was to build a starship, which he did not possess currently, that was able to fly out into the universe.
A man’s dream, including Lu Zhiyu’s, was to conquer the starry sky. He hoped that one day, he could travel to the sky and widen his horizons. He would like to see the beauty and fantasies of the entire universe.
With his own efforts, he would not be able to achieve this goal. He would need money, resources, knowledge, technical staff and many other things. This would be a big project. Lu Zhiyu had thought of this all before, but since he had met Nicholas Debye, he could now tap into Nicholas’ resources to realize his dream.
Although Lu Zhiyu was extremely powerful, his power could not help him realize these things. With Nicholas Debye’s help, he would be released of much of the burden, and could build his starship more quickly. Nicholas would also get what he wanted. Lu Zhiyu had promised to provide him with the evolved plasma, which was the legendary longevity pill. It would be developed by Biological Research Institute, owned by AB Technology. During the initial stage, they would supply the evolved plasma only to the members of Vatican Clan.
Nicholas Debye would like to make use of this opportunity to influence the whole world, from a high-end social club to an organization that could control the world’s economy. Nicholas believed that no man could resist the temptation of immortality.
Nicholas and Vatican Clan would supply the necessary resources, money, and talents to AB Technology, and AB Technology would provide them with the evolved plasma. They would share part of the space technology, gene-editing technology, and life engineering technology to promote and help man in the development of civilization.
Although Lu Zhiyu had nothing on hand at the moment, since he had already bragged about it, he would think about that problem later. He had to get his hands on the things that he wanted, now. As long as Nicholas Debye would supply him with the money and manpower to build his starship, nothing else mattered.
When things got out of hand, it would be too late for them to do anything him. At worst, Lu Zhiyu would simply have to escape from the earth in his starship. These ignorant people would not be able to go after him.
Lu Zhiyu lifted up his glass and said with a smile, “Come, let’s cheer our success.”
Nicholas Debye quickly lifted up his glass and said, “Of course. I am honored that you have chosen me to be your spokesman. I hope that we can continue to work together happily.”
Lu Zhiyu nodded his head in satisfaction. “Of course. I believe we will be the best partners. I will visit you in a week. By then, I hope you will have prepared what we need. Similarly, we will bring the evolved plasma to you, as promised.”
Nicholas Debye asked, “Can I name to this special evolved plasma?”
Lu Zhiyu was stunned for a while, and then said, “Of course. Those who inject the evolved plasma will have their lifespans prolonged to more than 1,000 years. Everyone will look beautiful and graceful. They will have strong bodies and great recovery powers. As long as the head is not hurt, they will not die. We will give you some special powers, so that you can release special waves to hypnotize, brainwash, and give out commands.”
Nicholas Debye was extremely excited. “That is great. That is awesome. This is like the blood race that I have imagined. This is the dominating technique that I have thought of. I would like to name the evolved plasma Embrace.”
Lu Zhiyu stood up and said, “As you wish. I will see you in a week’s time.”
Before he finished his sentence, Lu Zhiyu had disappeared from Nicholas’ office. Nicholas was extremely excited and could not sit still. He had never thought that he would come across such a great opportunity through a normal prayer ceremony. It could help him fulfill his wish and, at the same time, provide another great opportunity to the Debyes.
“I have met an astral businessman, of the real interstellar civilization. I must grab hold of this opportunity.” Nicholas Debye did not realize that he was mentally abnormal. He trusted Lu Zhiyu completely, and had no qualms about what Lu Zhiyu had said. Lu Zhiyu’s actions and words had excited him greatly, and this was also due to the fact that Lu Zhiyu had influenced him mentally.
“Perfect. Beautiful. Flawless. I can be a perfect being as well.”
“No. I must play a piece of music. What shall I play? Let’s…”
Nicholas sat down and found traces of water on the floor. He looked down and saw sea water and mud on the legs of the sofa chair.

Lu Zhiyu was in a good mood. He had never expected himself to get such a good bargain. He would be getting the remains of a silicon-based life, and had obtained a sponsor for building his starship. He had gained more than he had expected.
Although Lu Zhiyu had not received the remains of the silicon-based life, Nicholas would have it delivered to Byrne Island. There was no hurry.
“One more thing. The construction of the space exploration research base and the development of the starship must be well-planned, from scratch.”
