I Am Gwen's Spider-Man Mentor.

Chapter 103 Stark Fair
Gwen never stayed in the laboratory for long, so Raymond called her to come here today - her shocking second paper is finally going to be published, and Raymond is planning to take this opportunity to do some research.

After being elected CEO of Stark Industries, Raymond Xu was also successfully promoted to an independent director of the Empire State University Board of Directors, concurrently serving as the chairman of the Faculty Senate and vice chairman of the admissions committee. In short, he was equivalent to Empire State University. The vice-principal.

This kind of status is easy for a student with two majors in science to obtain a bachelor's degree qualification - as long as the publishing unit of the paper is affiliated with the College of Engineering of Empire State University.

But when Raymond told Gwen the plan, the blond girl who was busy with the tea machine slumped her shoulders and said helplessly: "No, I can't have it."

"Why?" Raymond frowned, "You helped organize and collect the data on the spider suit, and I am about to make further improvements based on your combat characteristics."

Gwen lowered her head with her back to Raymond. The sunlight outside the window filtered in, dragging out the girl's slim reflection on the ground: "I always feel that it's unfair to others..."

Raymond wanted to refute something for a moment, but he couldn't say anything. Could it be that this kind of "academic transaction" is fair?Or persuade Spider Girl to accept these damn social rules?

"Gwen..." Raymond changed his words and said softly: "Gwennie, we are boyfriend and girlfriend..."

Gwen's back, which had always been upright, bent down. When the girl turned around, she was facing the light. Raymond had a hard time seeing Gwen's expression with her head lowered. The girl's voice was very soft:
"It's because we are in a so-called 'teacher-student relationship'. Once something happens, we will both be ruined, right?"

There was sadness in the girl's brows, and her usually clear and crisp voice also deepened: "What we have to do now, your ideals, my ideals, those promises to make society better and let people take responsibility... They will all be wiped out, right?"

As she spoke, Gwen Stacy, who usually seemed independent and aloof to outsiders, slowly leaned forward. The girl gently hugged her boyfriend, and her blond head arched in Raymond's arms. :
"I know you are afraid..." After a while, she said softly: "But I am also afraid..."

Raymond could feel the girl's body shaking slightly - in fact, Gwen was not afraid of something like this happening all the time.

"Spider-Woman should be omnipotent in front of everyone..." Gwen wrapped her arms tightly around Raymond, making the professor unable to move at all.She raised her head from the man's arms and looked at her boyfriend with her big bright blue eyes:
"But let me think about this again, okay?"

How could Raymond not agree to her request?Although his concerns were legitimate, this matter was a matter between the two of them after all, and he still had to respect Gwen's opinion.

"Okay, I promise you." Raymond nodded, "But some things have to be decided early, otherwise there will always be hidden dangers."

Gwen, who was lying in the professor's arms, nodded. The girl raised her arm and poked her boyfriend's face with her index finger.

The mood of the girl in love changed very quickly. For a moment, Gwen seemed to be quite contented - completely different from the sadness just now.

"I'm going to meet Richard Brown. Do you have any suggestions?" After a while, Raymond took the opportunity to touch Gwen's face, which rarely showed her soft girl side, "My girlfriend~?"

As the professor's words fell to the ground, the lithe girl's body in her arms trembled slightly——

"I find that you are becoming more and more presumptuous in front of me, Mr. Boyfriend!" Gwen pushed Raymond away, "Also, this is in the laboratory!"

"My laboratory -" Raymond smiled with his big white teeth showing, "I still have the final say!"

Looking at her boyfriend who had transformed from a border collie to a husky, Gwen helplessly covered her forehead: "Oh my god, who will degrease this man!"

Raymond didn't say anything, he just pulled Gwen into his arms again: "My favorite thing is holding you!"

Gwen Stacy, who was pulled into the man's arms, looked helpless. She tapped her lover's chest with her right index finger and complained word by word about her mentor boyfriend who was "sophisticated in people and mature in dealing with things":

"Can you be more mature? Really!"

----split line----

Raymond was not surprised that Gwen rejected his agreement to let her graduate early - as Spider-Woman, Gwen certainly has an extraordinary sense of justice, and she would not agree to him so easily.

In fact, the fact that she proposed this plan and was not scolded by Gwen on the spot showed that she had considered their status as teacher, student and couple - she also knew that her purpose of letting her graduate was entirely to protect her.

She even said "let me think about it"!
Thinking from Spider-Woman's perspective, it's not difficult to see how much concessions Gwen made on this matter - in order to protect Raymond, she could even begin to accept such an "academic deal."The professor sighed softly, and he immediately turned on the computer - he was going to have an online meeting with Tony Stark.

"Hey!" Stark appeared on the computer screen. Tony was still carefree. He even turned his back to the screen and was busy in a series of blue-light holographic projections. "Xu, how are you doing lately?"

"In following up on the Starlink project, preparations have been made to start building multiple large-scale production bases. It is expected to be busy for a while." Raymond has already kept in mind the matters to be reported to the chairman of the board of directors of Stark Industries, "In hand There is also a small high-energy laser project, are you interested?"

"The Air Force's chemical oxygen iodine laser?" Stark pondered for a moment, "They actually gave this project to you?"

"Oxygen-iodine lasers still have development prospects -" Raymond reported his research results carefully: "Its wavelength will not be absorbed too much by fused quartz, but will be well absorbed by metals, making it very suitable for laser cutting. and drilling, the Air Force has demonstrated rapid cutting of stainless steel and Hastelloy using fiber-coupled coils.”

"What do you mean?" Tony was a little curious about Raymond's thoughts, so he turned around and listened to the professor carefully.

"The core of the oxygen-iodine laser is excited state oxygen. We need to prepare a large amount of hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution, which reacts with chlorine first to generate excited state oxygen. Since its spontaneous transition to the triplet sigma ground state is prohibited, the energy is It is transferred to the iodine atom, which is excited and emits laser light with a wavelength of 1.315 microns." Raymond briefly described the characteristics of the oxygen-iodine pneumatic chemical laser.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Stark interrupted him impatiently, "Say what you think."

"What I mean is that the magnetic field of a frequency-concentrating magnet or a frequency-increasing magnet is used to change the direction of a high-speed electron beam multiple times, thereby converting the kinetic energy of the electrons into photons..."

"To put it simply, we skip the chemical reaction step and directly use physical methods, using magnetic fields and accelerators to directly manipulate electrons."

Tony Stark was silent for a few minutes on the opposite side of the video. After a long while, he slowly said: "Xu, you are indeed a genius!"

The billionaire part-time mad scientist patted the blue-lighting palladium reactor on his chest and became excited during the remote video connection: "You mean, photons and electron beams interact with each other and eventually excite the electrons into lasers. That's it." ?"

Tony asked and answered himself with some excitement: "In this case, the laser only needs electricity and no medium. The most important thing we lack now is electricity!"

Raymond laughed and nodded: "Tony, your Ark reactor has helped me solve the magnetic field problem. With a few improvements, this magnetic field can be turned into an electron accelerator."

"What are you going to do?" Tony Stark was so excited that he forgot what he was going to say, "I can go to New York at any time!"

"Your armor needs an ablative laser for cutting. After all, sometimes you need to cut steel bars to save people, right?" Raymond couldn't help but smile when he thought of the red laser on Iron Man's wrist. When I smiled, I didn’t expect that this thing was my own invention.

"War Armor, oh yes, yes, War Armor!" Tony became more and more excited, "I almost forgot, Xu, the reason I came to you is that we should not hold another Stark Expo!"

"We haven't done anything since 1974, haven't we?" Raymond Xu raised his eyebrows. He was calm and unfazed - it seems that although Obadiah was knocked down by him, the plot of Iron Man is still the same. Move unstoppably to the next step.

"What's your expression?!" Tony looked a little dissatisfied, "With the Stark Expo, the Ark Reactor, and the armor, we can amaze the whole world!"

"Tony, where do you want us to hold it, New York or Los Angeles?" Raymond had already found his notebook expressionlessly and was waiting for the big boss's instructions.

"Oh, Xu——" Tony looked disappointed and sighed helplessly: "Can you live more like a living person?"

"It's my duty to fulfill your wish, Tony." Raymond shrugged, not even the slightest expression on his face.

"Okay -" Tony finally shook his head in frustration, having nothing to say to this boring man who looked paralyzed in front of everyone and everything!

I really don’t know when he will stop looking like this dead face!

Tony became helpless and decided not to get the pleasure of joint scientific research from Raymond Xu - this guy really regarded everything as his own task and had no passion for anything. This was what he disliked about Raymond the most. That's a bit virtuous.

After a long while, when Raymond Xu had already started tapping his notebook with a pen, Tony finally made up his mind:
"New York, Queens, this is also a sign that Stark Industries' headquarters is moving to New York!"
