Chapter 004: Spaceship

Coming out of the Time Villa, Wang Bo was about to head to Kamar-Taj to return the books and borrow a few new grimoires to study, when suddenly his phone rang.

Wang Bo picked up his phone and saw that it was his secretary calling.

And from the caller ID, this was already the tenth missed call from his secretary.

Wang Bo shrugged and answered the phone, "What's up?"

"Great, boss, you finally answered my call. Something big happened while you were away from the company these past few days," the secretary said, startled.

Wang Bo thought this secretary wasn't very competent, so he said sternly, "What's all the fuss about?"

"Boss, Tony Stark has been kidnapped by armed militants. Stark Industries is in chaos now, boss. Should we make a move, boss?"

The secretary knew very well that her boss harbored a lot of resentment toward Stark Industries and Tony Stark himself.

Now that Tony Stark was missing, her boss was probably overjoyed.

And because of Tony's disappearance, Stark Industries was already in disarray, with its stock price dropping repeatedly.

If Hammer Industries made a move now, it would certainly add insult to injury.

Wang Bo said calmly, "What does Tony Stark's disappearance have to do with us?"

Secretary: ...

"Don't bother me with such trivial matters. I have important things to do. Also, arrange a press conference for me in three days. I have something new to announce."

The secretary was dumbfounded. Damn, boss, you weren't like this before.

How come you don't even care about Tony Stark anymore, and instead want to hold a press conference?

The secretary was full of question marks, but finally nodded, "Alright, you're the boss, you call the shots."

Wang Bo hung up the phone, drew a portal to Kamar-Taj with his right hand, walked through, and went straight to the library. "Wang, I'm here to return the books."

Librarian Wang looked at Wang Bo in surprise, "You've finished them again?"

Wang Bo nodded.

Librarian Wang exclaimed, "Your learning of magic is truly astonishing. I've never seen anyone like you. You learn magic so fast."

Wang Bo smiled and said, "I have a Time Villa. Two days inside equals one hour outside."

Librarian Wang: ...

Can I take back my amazement?

He returned the grimoires speechlessly, then took out a few new ones and placed them in front of Wang Bo. "Now, you can read these."

"Thanks," Wang Bo said, taking a bottle of fine wine from his fourth-dimensional pocket and giving it to Wang. "This is a thank-you gift for you."

Librarian Wang took it without ceremony, opened the lid, and sniffed it. "Good wine!"

Although he wasn't a drunkard, he really liked such fine wine.

"Glad you like it."

Wang Bo picked up the grimoires, drew a portal, returned to his villa, then went into the Time Villa to continue studying magic.

But this time, while studying magic, Wang Bo also took out the Transformers Conqueror from his fourth-dimensional pocket.

He ordered the Conqueror to build an anti-gravity spaceship.

For the Conqueror, this was no big deal. After his upgrade, he could build many weapons. An anti-gravity spaceship was too easy for him.

So in the following days, Wang Bo discussed it with the Conqueror.

He didn't choose to build a large anti-gravity spaceship, but instead opted for small ones that could carry a dozen or so passengers.

No more than ten meters high and twenty meters long—definitely a small spaceship.

No, no, no, in the universe, this was a micro-spaceship.

But this kind of spaceship was very fast. From Earth to the Moon was just a few tens of minutes, not much different from stepping out of the house.

Of course, the Conqueror could build better spaceships too.

Transformers could roam the universe, with technology far surpassing Earth's. Even light-speed engines were not out of reach.

But Wang Bo didn't plan to bring out such good stuff.

What he brought out now was a supersonic engine, which was enough to travel within the solar system.

The spaceship was completely civilian, without any weapons.

The operating system was simplified, a bit more complicated than flying a plane, but after seventy-two hours of training, one could easily pilot the spaceship.

After the spaceship was designed, the Conqueror began full production. With Wang Bo's magic, in a few months, they produced three spaceships.

Then, Wang Bo had the Conqueror hand over the blueprints and left the Time Villa.

Back in the real world, Wang Bo found that only two days had passed, and the press conference he was to hold would open tomorrow.

So Wang Bo took the time to go to Kamar-Taj, returned the borrowed grimoires, but this time he borrowed new ones and continued to immerse himself in magic.

Having spent nearly a year in the Time Villa studying magic, Wang Bo began to feel a bit tired of it.

So he decided to switch gears and do something else.

After returning from Kamar-Taj, Wang Bo took out his Transformers Blackwing and drove it to his Hammer Industries.

Wang Bo's secretary, upon receiving the notice, rushed over immediately.

"Boss, you're finally here." Seeing Wang Bo, the secretary breathed a sigh of relief. These past few days when the boss didn't show up, she had been paranoid that the boss had been kidnapped like Tony Stark.

And Hammer Industries had also been in a bit of a mess because of the boss's absence, keeping her, as the secretary, from sleeping well.

Fortunately, the boss finally showed up today.

Wang Bo glanced at his secretary, a blonde beauty, and thought to himself that Justin Hammer really knew how to have fun.

"How's the press conference I asked you to prepare?" Wang Bo said.

"Most of the media have been notified. They will all be present tomorrow," the blonde secretary said efficiently.

"I need a large exhibition hall, preferably one like the World Expo's."

"Okay, boss, I'll handle it." Although the blonde secretary felt that the boss was making things difficult—this should have been mentioned earlier, not now—she still agreed.

As an excellent secretary, she believed in her abilities. With Hammer Industries' reputation and money, she should be able to pull it off.

"Good."

Wang Bo nodded in satisfaction.

The blonde secretary asked curiously, "Boss, why do we need such a large exhibition hall? Are you going to showcase some new weapon tomorrow?"

Wang Bo said mysteriously, "You'll find out tomorrow."
