Chapter 522: Interception (Part Two)
It was because the quantum mechanics he studied was one of the greatest discoveries in physics.
Right now, quantum weapons were even more powerful than nuclear weapons, and its existence was invisible yet lethal.
And right now, the latest level quantum mechanics mastered could diffuse 50% of the power from nuclear explosions! Once this technology was completely mastered, then nuclear weapons in this world would be basically useless in the face of this. Whoever could develop this anti-matter technology would pretty much be able to dominate the world!
So, since Hawking was the pioneer in this field, the M Nation obviously wouldn’t let him easily go back to the UK and potentially develop it into the M Nation’s deadliest enemy.
Xu Cheng: “You feel that your country can pick you up and escort you home safely?”
Hawking said blankly, “Don’t know. I think the M Nation won’t let me enter the UK borders.”
Xu Cheng: “I think on your way back, you will probably encounter some kind of danger.”
Hawking: “After I get on the plane, there will be UK fighter jets escorting, so it should be fine.”
Xu Cheng: “What if they don’t let you board then?”
Hawking became silent. He blankly looked over at Xu Cheng, and after a while, he said, “Young man, you do see through a lot of things in this world.”
“I just don’t want something to happen to you,” Xu Cheng smiled and said.
Hawking looked at him and asked, “Give me a reason. People won’t be concerned for a stranger for no reason.”
“Very simple. After you die on the road, the M Nation government would probably say it was due to some kind of side effect from the Mandala Lab’s product, and it would probably end up being our lab that gets damaged. This is like a two-birds-one-stone kind of deal for the M Nation government. The government couldn’t get involved with our technology, nor Wall Street or other capitalists in the country, so being an entity beyond their control, they would only want to destroy it. By they, I mean, the capitalists behind this country.
Hawking nodded understandingly. “What idea do you have then? If I can’t even trust nations, who else can I trust?”
