Chapter 554 256: Electromagnetic Boss Offline Team Building (6.8K)_2

Even many years later.

Some people might still brag to their grandchildren:

"Back in the day, your grandpa was right there at the scene of the light-speed measurement, helping hold that warning line!"

Meanwhile.

Angus Roman.

The president of the Newton Research Association, propelled by Purim to strike at William Whewell, would also become a figure of conversation.

Whether the topic was friendly, however, is another question.

In a certain sense....

He was also indirectly recorded in history?

Of course.

Before being recorded in history, he still had to endure William Whewell's 'repayment'.

Next, Wheat and Old Tang were dragged by William Whewell to labor as hard workers, and Xu Yun returned to the dormitory building accompanied by Aveline.

Aveline was still hugging a copy of "Classical Mechanics," her soft golden hair slightly fluttering in the wind, exuding a dense scholarly aura.

After walking a while, she suddenly said to Xu Yun:

"Thank you, Luo Feng."

Xu Yun looked at her puzzled, scratching his head in a Kennedy-like manner, not understanding:

"Uh, Aveline, why are you thanking me?"

Aveline's gaze remained forward, she spoke quietly:

"Do you remember the issue when Newton Ancestor met Mr. Feiyu?"

Xu Yun was slightly taken aback, then immediately understood.

Earlier, when Angus Roman asked about the first meeting between Little Niu and himself, Xu Yun had cleverly hinted at key information,

while also protecting Little Niu's dignified and upright image to a certain degree.

Although that file had been declassified, only members of the Royal Society were qualified to access it, far from being widely known.

Xu Yun's response indeed reduced the possibility of a "leakage".

Thus, as a descendant of Little Niu, Aveline's gratitude was not surprising.

Then Aveline glanced at him again and continued:

"Also... I need to apologize to you."

This time Xu Yun wasn't much puzzled; he immediately understood her meaning:

"Aveline, you also thought I was a fake descendant of Mr. Feiyu?"

Aveline softly hummed in acknowledgment.

Xu Yun dismissively waved his hand, smiling as he said:

"Oh, what's there to apologize for? It's my fault as a descendant who has no skills, only getting into Cambridge with the help of a letter passed down from my ancestor. It's normal that everyone doesn't trust me..."

Hearing Xu Yun's words, Aveline suddenly stopped walking, seriously looking at him and said:

"You can casually pull out those three experiments, even startling Professor Faraday's heart condition. Isn't that skill?"

Xu Yun shrugged, explaining:

"That was all thanks to Mr. Feiyu Ancestor. It has little to do with me as a descendant. I'm just a mover, doing some insignificant work."

"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."

Aveline looked at him again, didn't say anything, and continued walking towards the dormitory.

Seeing this, Xu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, quickly followed up.

Women are so troublesome.jpg.

A few minutes later.

The two arrived downstairs at the dormitory.

Aveline stopped at the entrance, glanced at the distant light, and said to Xu Yun:

"Luo Feng, this is where I'll leave you. I won't see you upstairs."

Xu Yun nodded, thanking her:

"Thank you, Aveline."

Aveline didn't say anything, turned around, and retraced her steps back.

Just as Xu Yun was about to enter the dormitory.

Aveline suddenly turned back, quietly asking Xu Yun:

"Luo Feng, may I ask you a question?"

Xu Yun stopped, nodded:

"Of course."

Aveline maintained a cool and calm expression:

"Luo Feng, please tell me, how old did Mr. Feiyu live to be?"

Xu Yun was stunned for a moment, quickly giving an answer:

"Mr. Feiyu Ancestor lived to be 82 years old, passing away peacefully in 1723."

In 1665, when he met Little Niu, Little Niu was exactly 22 years old. His introduction was a teaching assistant at the Netherlands University, usually aged between 24-26.

By this calculation, Xu Yun's answer seemed quite reasonable.

Upon hearing Xu Yun's answer.

Aveline was silent for a moment, then suddenly curled her lips into a smile:

"Do you know that it wasn't until 1769 that Mr. Volta proposed the Volta concept?"

Xu Yun was instantly dumbfounded.

Aveline gave him a deep look, her eyes shining like stars under the streetlights:

"So, do you still insist that the photovoltaic effect was discovered by Mr. Feiyu, Luo Feng?"

With that said.

She flicked her hair and disappeared into the darkness.

Leaving Xu Yun to stand bewildered in the wind.

.....

That night.

Xu Yun had a dream.

He dreamt of going back to the 1665 dungeon, returning to the day he and Little Niu visited the William Asku family.

As soon as the door opened, Lilani threw a lump of cow dung at him.

But soon.

That cow dung turned into a copy of "Classical Mechanics," and Lilani transformed into Aveline...

"!"

Xu Yun woke up instantly from the dream, instinctively sitting up in bed.

After a while.

He brushed the sweat off his forehead with a wry smile.

Is Aveline really a descendant of Lilani?

Their intelligence and personalities are completely different types, aren't they?

He then took a deep breath, calming himself down, and started getting dressed.

Outside the window, the sky was already beginning to brighten, around 7:30 in the morning.

Wheat wasn't in the dorm, but there were signs of sleeping on his bed, with some bread and milk placed on the dining table.
