Chapter 746: Chapter 740: Century Wedding End
An hour before the wedding commenced, the audience was treated to beautiful panoramas of the entire estate. As journalists had noted, the views here, thanks to Olivia Thatcher’s design, were absolutely world-class, with many vistas that could only be described as miraculous works of art.
“I’ve been blinded by the grandeur, now I realize the tremendous gap between me and the super-rich.”
“Living in such a place would be nice, but isn’t this too extravagant? If I remember correctly, this was merely a plain. The transformation to its current state, with all these trees and plants obviously transplanted, must have cost a fortune.”
“My wife asked why I was on my knees while watching the live stream. All I could say was, ‘Mr. Finn, I salute your wedding in humble awe.’
“My wife told me not to marry her if we don’t have such a wedding. What should I do?”
“To the guy above, first check whether your wife can compare to Kay Lee. If not, tell her to take a hike.”
If some level of decency had been preserved by the journalists, netizens had none. Yet, no matter what, when such a wedding was live-streamed, countless people were so shocked by the scene that they frantically called their friends to tune in.
If the wedding could astound the ordinary observer by showcasing countless things they had never seen before, then the guests who were invited would render them speechless. Celebrities were commonplace. Sure, many celebrities held live-streamed weddings before, and the attendees at these events were famous as well.
But the guests here were, without exaggeration, worth billions. Those who weren’t billionaires either had a special relationship with Finn or were his friends and family. Otherwise, they had no chance of attending. Besides the super-rich, almost all of the guests held high political offices, representing various nations, or were emissaries or close family of powerful figures.
The wedding was officiated by a smart robot, and any unforeseen circumstances were quickly handled after consulting a middle-aged gentleman. Finn’s wedding didn’t follow the traditional procedures on Earth but adhered to the ritual from the Galactic Federation’s royal family. Even though it was simplified, no essential steps were missing.
According to Luna Starfield, as long as everything proceeded according to the protocol, nothing could be left out. Thus, Kay Lee could register as Finn’s legitimate spouse in the Galactic Federation’s database. The process was simple. Once all necessary steps were submitted, the process could be reviewed. Hence, many steps followed the Galactic Federation’s convention.
Although it might appear strange to Earthlings, despite the slight differences, the overall effect of the ceremony remained solemn and majestic. It seemed very impressive, especially the vows, which were based on the Galactic Federation’s version rather than the well-known vows from Western ceremonies on Earth.
After a brief pause, the audience burst into applause. A keen eagerness burst from everyone’s eyes. Who wouldn’t want to be fluent in several languages or have the ability to communicate seamlessly worldwide? Who wouldn’t want an easy grasp of any knowledge? However, not everyone’s brain is that capable.
But now, the Gene Optimization Fluid made this all possible. The middle-aged man finished his speech, and it exploded like an atomic bomb worldwide, causing a significant disturbance. Ordinary people realized the benefits of the Gene Optimization Fluid for themselves and their offspring. But the reaction of the leaders was decidedly mixed, as they had deeper thoughts.
This was like during the feudal society when the intelligence of the Flame Nation’s people was generally higher than the global average. At that time, the Flame Nation’s GDP constituted almost 80% of the world. Even during crisis-ridden times, their GDP was never below 50%. Thus, it’s clear how terrifying this was. This has been confirmed by research organizations.
A person’s intelligence correlates with their education. Because the Flame Nation has a long history and was the first to develop a culture, especially during the Spring and Autumn Warring States where a hundred schools of thought competed, their intellectual development surpassed that of any other region’s average.
That’s why Flame Nation remained the world’s center for so long, leading the world in technology. This isn’t based on conjecture, but proven by science. Later, due to reasons such as global expansion by Westerners and the prohibition of sea travel by Flame Nation’s royalty, more and more people from the Southern Federation were exposed to Flame Nation’s culture.
When the Southern Federation started studying Flame Nation’s culture, their intellectual development quickly caught up. It’s not that the people of the Southern Federation were inherently deficient, but their intellectual development was lacking. When met with new knowledge, they were able to quickly catch up. There’s a saying in Flame Nation that ‘the more you use your brain, the sharper it becomes.’ It’s that simple. But now, due to the prenatal nature of gene optimization, someone could be born as a genius, rather than being born ordinary and having to strive to become a genius.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
