Chapter 273 Am I awesome? Any extra rewards?

After a brief silence, the Laboratory erupted with uncontrollable exclamations and gasps.

Everyone widened their eyes, as if they had seen the most incredible sight in the world.

Several gray-haired senior researchers were trembling with excitement, pointing at the smoothly running engine, their lips quivering, yet they couldn't utter a single word.

They had originally only hoped that the genius Jiang Jing could provide some ideas; even if he just pointed out a possible research direction, they would have been extremely grateful.

But who could have imagined...

Good heavens!

This guy just rolled up his sleeves, spent a few hours, and right in front of everyone, forcibly built something that only existed in theoretical fantasies?!

This is no longer just genius; this is simply... a miracle!

Although Elder Qin had already been shocked by Jiang Jing many times and had developed some immunity, witnessing this scene that defied existing physical common sense, his heart was still pounding wildly.

He asked with a trembling voice: "Jiang Jing, does this thing really only need water? Ordinary... water?"

Jiang Jing looked at everyone's expression as if they had seen a ghost, feeling secretly pleased, while appearing calm and indifferent on the surface.

He nodded, speaking earth-shattering words in the most plain tone:

"Yeah, that's right, this thing is called a Water-powered Engine."

"In principle, no matter what kind of water it is, river water, seawater, or even dirty water containing impurities... as long as it contains water molecules, it can serve as its fuel."

"Oh, right." He seemed to recall something, chuckled, and added a joke.

"If you really can't find water, theoretically, a puddle of urine would work too!"

This overly down-to-earth analogy instantly brought everyone, who were immersed in huge shock, back to their senses, and they cast speechless eye-rolls at Jiang Jing.

Academician Chen even protectively guarded the engine, as if Jiang Jing were really going to use some filthy substance to ruin this treasure.

He muttered: "Nonsense! Simply nonsense! How can such a miraculous object be used with... with that kind of thing!"

Elder Qin ignored Jiang Jing's wisecracking; he was more concerned about the actual performance and eagerly pressed: "Then... how is its power? How is its efficiency?"

Jiang Jing smiled slightly and pointed to the connected testing equipment: "Talk is cheap, why don't we just test it and see?"

Thus, a group of old experts with an average age of over sixty, still handled the engine like they were holding fragile antique porcelain, carefully connecting it for data monitoring.

Jiang Jing said helplessly: "No need to be so careful, this thing is very sturdy."

A series of rigorous and rapid tests began...

While the old guys were busy testing data, Jiang Jing didn't take out his phone to immerse himself in the "frustrating" gaming world as usual.

He rolled his eyes, a cunning smile appeared on his face, and he reached out with both hands simultaneously, precisely grabbing the wrists of Zhou Wanqin and Lin Hong, who were sitting not far away from him.

Under the slightly panicked and shyly annoyed gazes of the two women, he used a little force to pull them onto the empty seats beside him.

"Hehe," Jiang Jing leaned closer, lowering his voice with a hint of triumph, "Two captains, you saw it clearly, right?"

"Such an amazing thing, I kept my word and made it for you... oh no, for the country. How about it, I didn't break my promise, right?"

Zhou Wanqin and Lin Hong felt the warmth of Jiang Jing's palm on their wrists, and hearing his words that sounded like he was fishing for credit, their pretty faces couldn't help but turn red simultaneously.

They tried to pull their hands back, but found that Jiang Jing was holding them quite tightly.

Lin Hong rolled her eyes at him grumpily and spat: "The thing you made is indeed miraculous, we admit it, but what does that have to do with us?"

Zhou Wanqin also tried hard to maintain her cold expression, nodding in agreement: "That's right, this is your contribution to the country, don't drag us into it."

Jiang Jing didn't care about their stubbornness at all; instead, the smile on his face became even more brazen.

He blinked and lowered his voice, speaking at a volume that only the three of them could hear: "You can't say it like that."

"I've considered this an over-fulfillment of the [Inspire Inspiration] mission, and the results are so remarkable. Look, shouldn't there be some... extra reward?"

"Extra reward?!"

The two women's eyes widened instantly, as if they had heard something incredible.

Lin Hong was choked with anger, lowering her voice to accuse Jiang Jing of being shameless: "You... we are very poor, we have nothing!"

Zhou Wanqin also glared at him in shy annoyance, feeling that the thickness of this guy's face was comparable to a city wall.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jing didn't retort, just wore a playful smile, slowly scanning the two women's faces and figures.

Although he didn't say a word, the meaning in his eyes was even more explicit than a thousand words.

Zhou Wanqin and Lin Hong felt completely uncomfortable under his aggressive gaze, as if they weren't wearing any clothes, and the blush on their faces deepened.

Lin Hong couldn't help but reach out with her other hand, pinching Jiang Jing's arm hard, and hissed through gritted teeth: "You dead pervert! Thinking about these things all day long! Get lost!"

Zhou Wanqin also forcefully pulled her hand back, turning her face away, her ears bright red.

Jiang Jing pretended to be in great pain, exaggeratedly begging for mercy: "Ouch! Spare me, heroines!"

On Elder Qin's side.

They tried distilled water, tap water, and even simulated seawater and turbid water containing a small amount of silt.

The results left everyone dumbfounded once again.

Just as Jiang Jing said, no matter what kind of liquid was injected, as long as it contained water molecules, this miraculous engine could start immediately and output stable and powerful power.

Test data showed that this four-cylinder engine, when running stably, could easily reach and maintain an astonishing high speed of 7000 revolutions per minute for a long time.

Moreover, it ran extremely smoothly, with minimal noise and vibration.

It ran under high load for over two hours continuously, with no degradation in any parameters, and its stability was terrifyingly high.

"Good heavens... four cylinders... seven thousand revolutions... stable for two hours..."

"This energy conversion efficiency... is simply heaven-defying!"

"Zero pollution! Raw material cost is almost zero! This... this..."

Elder Qin looked at the strings of data on the screen that were so magnificent they felt unreal, feeling as if his heart couldn't take it anymore.

He rushed to Jiang Jing again, not caring that the other party was flirting with Zhou Wanqin and Lin Hong.

He grabbed Jiang Jing's arm, his voice hoarse with excitement:

"Jiang Jing, this is not its limit, is it?! Just how much potential does it have?!"

Jiang Jing had just teased Zhou Wanqin and Lin Hong with his eyes until they turned red and looked away, and he was in a good mood, so he was a bit speechless at being interrupted by Elder Qin.
