Night.
In the Bai Jing restaurant.
The atmosphere had become rather tense.
Some regular customers, looking at the notice ‘The shop will be closed from tomorrow,’ felt as if the air had become heavy. One by one, they could not bear it and left.
Occasionally, some stern-faced men in black came in, gradually occupying the entire restaurant.
“Bai Jing, Advisor Bai!”
At the end, as soon as the Internet closed, Zi and Huang Minghao walked in, “What exactly do you want to do?”
Su Lu wiped his hands and replied with a smile, “I’m tired of running a restaurant and want to start a school, it’s as simple as that.”
The feeling tonight told him that the Internet was ready to confront him.
“So…did you kill Suvit, and where is the ancient god’s photo?”
Huang Minghao questioned him aggressively.
Everyone around them at this moment was from the Internet, so there was no fear of secrets being leaked.
“I did kill Suvit… and the Ancient God photo is naturally in my hands, it is indeed a treasure… a little understanding, and it gave me the ‘Spirit Seal’ and other high-end mysterious knowledge. It’s a wealth for all of humanity, and I plan to use it as a gift for my students.”
Clap! Clap!
Huang Minghao clapped his hands, “Such noble ideals, but the Ancient God photo is a valuable asset of the Internet… Advisor Bai, perhaps you might consider donating it? Of course, we can invite you to be a special researcher.”
“Ha… So you want my treasure and want me to help you with your research too?” Su Lu stared at him in surprise, “Do you think I’m a fool?”
“Bai Jing! Consider your status! You’ve become too conceited.”
Huang Minghao sneered.
Before, he couldn’t make a move, but now, the situation was completely different!
With the revelation of the Ancient God’s photo and the Spirit Seal, the Internet headquarters was taking this very seriously, and a large number of top professionals were deployed to the location outside the small shop.
It could be said that half of the Internet’s high-end forces were here!
In this world, no professional could confront such a massive organization.
“Advisor Bai, I hope you will give it some careful thought…” Zi tried to advise. She didn’t want to cross swords with Su Lu.
“All these goings-on… A last supper, perhaps?”
Su Lu shot a glance at Liu Xiaodang next to him, “Little Dang… The title of master chef now rests on your shoulders.”
“Thank you, you will always be my teacher!”
Liu Xiaodang bowed, but didn’t hesitate to retreat behind Zi.
‘He’s a madman!’
‘He’s gone mad.’
Watching this scene, Huang Minghao couldn’t help feeling an odd mix of both joy and chills.
He knew that Bai Jing was ready to confront the Internet, but where did he get his confidence from?
“I am a businessman, it’s not good for everyone to be killing and fighting.” Su Lu suddenly broke the silence, “How about we make a bet?”
“How can such a serious matter be treated as child’s play?” Huang Minghao immediately retorted.
“What kind of bet? Let’s hear it…”
Zi waved her hand and signaled Huang Minghao to calm down with her eyes.
“From the Ancient God’s photo, I not only got the Spirit Seal, but also knowledge of the Secret Realm… To put it in layman’s terms, it is space technology!”
Su Lu calmly said these shocking words, “However, you probably don’t understand… I’ll show you directly. This restaurant is a small Secret Realm I built. If you can break through it, I admit defeat, and you can do whatever you want.”
“Space…space?”
Zi’s pupils contracted sharply.
Immediately, she saw Su Lu snap his fingers.
BANG!
The surroundings overlap, bringing a powerful sense of repulsion.
Before she has time to react, she finds herself standing on the side of a road, next to a bewildered Liu Xiaodang.
“Is this… teleportation? Seriously? The teleportation magic in novels can actually be realized in the real world? Countless scientists must be rolling over in their graves…”
Zi is practically speechless.
“Quick, quick! Reinforcement!”
Next to them, Huang Minghao yells hysterically: “The target has already taken action! No need to hold back! Repeat! No need to hold back!”
But the next moment, he’s like a duck being strangled, unable to utter a word.
RUMBLE!
Two buildings seem to have come alive around Bai Jing’s Small Shop, constantly squeezing towards the center.
The Bai Jing Small Shop turns into a crevice, finally disappearing completely.
It’s as if this segment of space has been hidden!
“Damn it! What’s going on?”
Huang Minghao strokes his increasingly receding hairline: “Am I dreaming?”
“Target’s gone!”
“Report, target’s gone!”
Many members of the Sky Net rush into the two adjacent buildings, only to find them to be quite ordinary, the same as before. Of course, the people inside were already evacuated.
But they can’t find the Bai Jing restaurant anywhere.
…
“Based on the above situation…our strategy research group believes a spatial collapse phenomenon has occurred in this area… The space coordinates of the small shop have been completely hidden. This is not the power of science, but a miracle!”
On the screen, a research member speaks frenziedly.
“There’s also the Bai family’s mansion experiencing the same thing…seems like he thought of everything.”
Zi shakes her head, her tone heavy.
“So what if it’s hidden? If we have to, we can tear down all the surrounding buildings…”
Huang Minghao clenches his teeth.
“No…you don’t understand what it means to hide a space coordinate. It’s like having two different sheets of paper. No matter how you smear paint on one, it won’t appear on the other one! It’s basically like two dimensions. Even if you flatten that area, it’s of no use… Plus, the other side also has teleportation ability.”
A doctor lifts his glasses and spreads his hands in helplessness.
“This… Is it like we’re being attacked on a lower dimension? Is the gap between us and the other party’s mystic science this terrifying?”
Zi can’t help but ask.
Space technology is currently unanalyzable by science, it can only be described as mystic science, and the other party is obviously using mystic rituals to do it.
“That’s right…use the Transcendent, to break through that Secret Realm!”
Huang Minghao seems to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw: “We also have the Ancient God photo, what about the support from headquarters?”
“Let me explain that…”
In another frame on the video conference, a male researcher with hair as messy as a bird’s nest and dark eye circles says, “First of all, I have to state that mystic science isn’t real science, we have to recognize the special role of individuals. In the research of the Ancient God’s Mystery Treasure… Advisor Bai might be twenty years ahead of us!”
“Cough! Twenty years?”
Huang Minghao is almost choked by his own saliva, feeling he’s going crazy from their words: “The same starting point, the same treasure, and you also have the support of the entire Sky Net. So now you’re telling me that your entire research team is lagging twenty years behind him?”
“There’s no other way… The Ancient God Photo is not a file or a document, but a ‘book with no words’, it all comes down to personal comprehension, perhaps even a match in soul frequency… and in our research team, apparently, there isn’t such a mystic science genius… Originally, Dr. Suvit was recognized as the one with the highest ‘affinity’ towards the Ancient God Photo in the world. Of course, now it’s definitely Advisor Bai.”
The Ancient God Photo is the highest secret of the Sky Net, it’s impossible to openly hold auditions for it.
Even if they did hold auditions, just the initial identity verification would take a lot of time and effort.
Zi feels depressed, as if they are being attacked on a lower dimension by the other party, but there’s barely any solutions on their side.
