Wu Yunfeng's feelings were something Ye Changsi could very well understand; in fact, most researchers were like this, sometimes constrained only by their era.
TEPA had resolved Wu Yunfeng's greatest inner conflict, and he turned to face the setting sun, spreading his arms wide:
"Long live high-energy physics!"
Shouting this out made him feel exhilarated. He closed his eyes to bask in the last warmth of the sun, which was surprisingly comforting.
Ye Changsi had stood behind him for quite a while until the sun was about to set completely before he came alongside him and asked softly,
"The challenge with TEPA isn't technological. There isn't a significant technical barrier between ten trillion and a hundred trillion electron volts. The Institute of High Energy wouldn't possibly waste your valuable intellectual efforts on manufacturing experimental machinery."
Wu Yunfeng's face stiffened, just having calmed his emotions—of course, this was true.
