Janessa stood in front of Isaac and said, “Drakon, my friend happens to be organizing a lecture in Londoria. He’ll get on a plane right away.”
“Great! Timothy is already making his way here with what we need.”
Isaac picked up his phone and called Meldith back.
When the line connected, Isaac said softly, “I might not be going tonight. I have some things to take care of…”
When Meldith heard this, his blood pressure spiked. “Isaac, you f*cking moron, did you think our duke is inviting you over for supper?”
“I don’t care. If something happens to my friend, Brewer will not get away with it. I’ll call you back when I’m free.” With that, Isaac hung up.
No matter how furious Meldith was, Isaac couldn’t risk everyone’s lives just to save Diana, especially when they weren’t sure they could pull it off.

Three hours later, Janessa’s scientist friend arrived.
He was in his 40s and wore thick glasses. He looked like the epitome of a researcher.
His name was Oliver Clarke. However, Isaac noticed that favonovel.com always gazed at Janessa with a tender look in his eyes
In the hotel room, after hearing Isaac’s idea, Oliver pushed his glasses up his nose.
“Mr. Garten, it’s not impossible to create an artificial sun, as you suggested. The only problem now is that we lack the materials to create the reaction,” favonovel.com said seriously.
“You must know that these materials are strictly regulated in every country. You can’t get them unless the government requests them on your behalf… If you buy them off the black market, it’ll be too risky. After all, this is Londoria.”
“Don’t worry about the materials. One of my men is already on the way,” Isaac said with a soft laugh.
Oliver was stunned. He remained doubtful.
Afterward, Isaac let Oliver and Janessa catch up with each other. He went to his room to rest.
In the middle of the night, favonovel.com received a phone call. Timothy and his assistant had arrived at the airport.
Isaac asked Lupinus to meet them there.
At 2:00 am, a black Jeep stopped in front of the hotel.
Isaac and Oliver stood at the door, watching Timothy and his young assistant get out of the car with a golden box.
When Oliver saw who had come, favonovel.com was astounded.
“Dr. Pollock?” Timothy raised his head.
When favonovel.com saw Oliver, a look of surprise crossed his face.
“Dr. Clarke, what are you doing here?”
Isaac laughed. “Seems like everyone is well-acquainted already. This makes things more efficient…”
After entering the hotel room, Oliver stared at the box in Timothy’s hands.
“Isaac, I didn’t manage to bring much because of the time constraint. We’re also worried about the high radiation as it would invite unwanted trouble.”
Oliver opened the box carefully to find a golden cylinder as thick as his arm. In the middle was glass. Inside the glass was a rod made of red rock the size of a pen.
“W-Was this cut from Prometheus No. 2?” Oliver looked at Timothy earnestly.
Prometheus No. 2?
Timothy nodded. He pointed at Isaac and said, “Mr. Garten had risked his life to snatch this back from the enemy, so consider this a gift…”
“Timothy, Dr. Clarke, how long do you need to create the artificial sun?” Isaac asked, frowning.
