Ultra Scientist: I have a fear of insufficient firepower

There are still three days until the Star Badge Selection Conference.

The Silver Cross Federation was busy preparing the materials needed for the conference and maintaining order.

The Ultra Space Port was bustling with activity, as almost all the civilized forces that had established diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Light chose to come and participate in this grand ceremony that took place once every thousand years.

The sudden influx of a large number of friendly aliens brought a lively atmosphere to the originally peaceful and tranquil Kingdom of Light.

Within the Bureau of Science and Technology.

As a candidate for this year's Star Badge, Sykes is repeatedly calculating his number of votes.

"The votes are divided into five parts. The votes of all citizens account for 10%. With the reputation accumulated by the Quantum Structure Recombination Machine, I believe that most people will vote for me without a second thought. This part should be able to get at least 8% of the votes..."

"The reserve members of the guard team in the Ultra Arena account for 30%... This part is a bit uncertain. Although Univos is here, those stupid warriors have a lot of resentment towards me. The number of votes is uncertain, and it may be up to 20%..."

"The official guard team members account for 40%. Captain Zoffy, Taro, Seven, Cero, Mebius... and other members have a good relationship with me, so they account for about 20%..."

"All members of the Science and Technology Bureau account for 10%... It's difficult. Hikari is the director and has many subordinates. I can only get 2% at most..."

"As for the last 10%, which is held by the Silver Cross Federation... Well, they don't have much to do with it. On the contrary, Hikaru is quite familiar with them. I guess they don't have any votes at all..."

"Totaling the votes, my final vote count is between 45% and 55%. The fluctuation is still too big. I may not be able to beat Hikari..."

After some careful calculations, Sykes felt a little bored.

The chief is worthy of being the chief, and the director is worthy of being the director!

Even though he has made many scientific research achievements in recent years, not many of them can be mass-produced, which is not enough to shake Hikari's prestigious position in the Kingdom of Light.

As the winner of the Star Badge for eight consecutive years, he is very confident.

"No wonder you turned a blind eye to my canvassing for votes, you really are..."

Sighing, Sykes felt a little uneasy.

After all, the selection meeting would be held in three days. No matter how he calculated, he couldn't surpass Hikaru. Even the number of votes he could get was slightly lower than his. If he didn't do something, he would feel itchy all over, as if ants were crawling on him.

So after thinking for a moment, he walked out the door.

He wants to discuss experience with a senior who has won the Star Badge for nine consecutive years!

......

Space Security Headquarters.

Captain's office.

"Why do you have time to come to me today? Is there something wrong?"

Zoffy looked at Sykes with a strange look when he suddenly visited her.

"Look at what you said, as if I can't come to you to exchange feelings if there's nothing wrong."

Sykes shrugged, glanced at the densely packed messages on the display in front of him, and asked with a smile, "So busy?"

Zoffy smiled helplessly: "It's okay. The Star Badge Selection Conference is about to be held. After a large number of friendly aliens entered the Kingdom of Light, things are indeed a bit busy. It will be fine after this period of time."

"Thank you for your hard work..." Sykes walked to his desk, leaned forward and whispered, "The captain didn't say anything about what happened last time, did he?"

"Thanks to you, the captain didn't blame me." Zoffy nodded slightly, and then smiled knowingly: "You came to me for the vote for the Star Badge, right? Don't worry, given our relationship, I will definitely give you my vote."

Upon hearing this, Sykes immediately said righteously: "Captain, what do you think of me? How could I possibly doubt your character?!"

"Oh?" Zoffy glanced at him and said calmly, "Then I voted for Hikaru, okay?"

"Uh..." Sexton couldn't pretend anymore and said with his head down: "Captain, we can't play like this..."

"That's right, why are you pretending to be nice to me?" Zoffy chuckled and continued:

"Tell me, why did you come to see me at this time? There's no need for us to be so polite."

Sykes said distressedly, "It's nothing, I just feel that I might still lose to Hikaru in this Star Badge Selection. I'm very upset, so I came to you for advice."

"I'm still trying to enlighten you?" Zoffy spread his hands, "I'm only one star away from ten, but this time, Zero's exploits were so great that I lost all my stars!"

As he spoke, Zoffy seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "If you really want to get the Star Badge, I have a plan!"

"What's your trick? Tell me about it." Sykes' eyes lit up.

Zoffy said strangely: "Your own military exploits are not small. If you compete with Zero, your chances of winning are very high. After all, as a scientist, I think everyone will be happy to vote for you when you are nominated for the War Medal."

Hearing this, Sexton's face immediately fell: "I'm a scientist, why do I need a war medal? Besides, I'm embarrassed to compete with Zero for it."

"That's nothing we can do." Zoffy leaned back, swiped his finger across the virtual display screen, and continued to deal with the backlog of matters.

As the captain of the Space Guard, he has heavy responsibilities and is very busy every day. The fact that he can take time to chat with Psykes proves that the relationship between the two is special.

"Hey, if you have nothing to do, I'll give you a task."

After dealing with the matter for about ten minutes, seeing that Sykes was still standing there, Zoffy immediately said unhappily:

"The Silver Cross Federation urgently needs a batch of scanning equipment to detect whether the cosmic beings are hiding dark forces. We originally asked Hikaru to speed up the production, but Hikaru seems to be very busy. You can do it."

I'm not sure whether Hikari is busy or not, but Sykes seems to be very idle. I'll find him something to do... Doesn't that count as me doing something behind the scenes?

"Hahaha, Captain Zoffy, I love you so much!"

Sykes was greatly surprised. What he lacked most now was the opportunity to show up in front of the Silver Cross Federation. Captain Zoffy gave it to him. How could he not love it?

It turned out to be the right decision to find Captain Zoffy!

I will remember this kindness!

Zoffy smiled at Sykes's enthusiasm and said, "They need one hundred units and they need to make them within twelve hours. That shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

"No problem, it's just a scanning device to detect dark forces. It only takes one hour to design and three hours to make it all!"

Sykes patted his chest to assure.

Zoffy nodded slightly: "Okay, get out of here quickly and remember to be serious, otherwise I won't forgive you!"

"My inventions are always serious!"

"..."

Zoffy suddenly had a bad feeling, but the words had been spoken and could not be taken back. He could only hope that this kid would not do anything weird.

Just like that, having received the task, Sykes happily left the captain's office.
