Chapter 292: Beauty Like a Flower (29)
The way he spoke, his tone.
The director was certain that this person was from the military.
The director's heart was bleeding; he had spent so much money and effort to obtain this temporary usage right, and now that the permission was lost, the show was completely ruined, and the costs were utterly sunk.
But if the military wanted to reclaim it, there was nothing he could do but try to gather information.
“Sir, may I ask… what happened?” the director asked cautiously and respectfully.
“An SS+ Rank New Human is being born up there, and you all don't know about it?”
Upon hearing this, the director almost didn't react, then was so shocked that black mist swirled around him.
Wait, the SS+ Rank being born must be Little Tentacle.
But…
This Rank is too high!
“Isn't this a good thing? Invite her to our Empire…”
“Two SS+ Ranks, and I heard Professor Ke say that one has already Awakened a forbidden thought and is spreading it across the entire Federal Empire. Tell me, how should we handle this? What if it attracts… Never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you.”
That person’s tone was very similar to Professor Ke’s attitude towards Liu Sheng, clearly not considering the director someone worthy of an equal conversation.
“This is the mess you all stirred up, and I have to clean it up for you! That’s why I’ve long proposed to the council that some things shouldn’t be trivialized for entertainment, especially by uncultured Empire scumbags like you who just love to mess around…”
That person’s words were sharp, carrying obvious personal emotion, scolding the director mercilessly.
“So, what are you planning to do?” The director didn’t dare to refute, asking with a heart full of trepidation.
“That’s not something you should be concerned about,” the person said coldly.
A bad premonition welled up in the director’s heart. “But… our people are still in there…”
“No choice, contact them immediately to withdraw, now.”
But, they couldn’t withdraw at all…
Before the director could speak, the person had already hung up the communication.
…
Snake Taoist saw the black screen and the words “Program suspended.”
He scratched his head, what was going on?
He could only go online to see if there were any insiders, so he started browsing the forums.
Indeed, there were quite a few viewers on the Star Network who were just as puzzled as he was, all posting to inquire about the situation. But these people were not industry insiders, so they certainly wouldn't know the detailed inside story.
Fortunately, Snake Taoist was at least half an insider, and moreover, he knew someone who was aware of the program team's situation.
Remembering this, Snake Taoist quickly dialed the communication.
“Hello, Brother Tosca, it’s me… Wait, don’t hang up, I’m not asking to borrow money… I just want to ask, what’s going on with The Metamorphosis?”
“What? The military is watching it? Okay, okay, I won’t ask anymore.”
“Yes, yes, I absolutely won’t say another word.”
Snake Taoist hung up the communication, his expression solemn. How could a popular entertainment program across the Federal Empire suddenly become involved with the Federal Empire military?
It could only be that they had violated regulations, and to such an extent that the military had to intervene.
And, could it be related to the last thing Liu Sheng said?
What was that sentence again? Why did he forget it all of a sudden?
Snake Taoist tapped his head, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't recall the memory of that sentence.
…
“Federal Empire… military?” Liu Sheng murmured, looking at the communication that had lost its signal.
“So, my revelation that they are not true high dimension beings, is this statement forbidden?”
“Very likely. It seems they are completely unaware that they are not truly high dimension, at most 3.5 dimension,” the World said.
“However, if I hadn’t been to the true high dimension, I probably wouldn’t have realized it. After all, their technological society is already highly developed, capable of spatial and dimensional leaps, and can even control the flow of time in this realm.”
“But if it’s not high dimension, it’s not high dimension. True high dimension doesn’t simply control space-time, but inherently possesses the characteristic attributes of highly folded space and non-linear time flow.”
Liu Sheng recalled the dizzying experience of entering the high dimension space behind the Supreme God and nodded in agreement.
Then she thought of something else.
“Could it be that realizing this will bring some bad consequences?”
“Unknown for now, insufficient information collected.”
“It’s all Professor Ke’s fault for being too vigilant and cutting it off immediately.”
“After all, he is a professor at Federal Empire University. Based on the current information, professors at Federal Empire University should have a certain degree of influence, and this Professor Ke can even directly contact the military.”
“The most urgent thing now is that the military has taken over this planet, and they are clearly going to take measures against us.”
“Insufficient information, unable to determine what measures,” the World said, anticipating Liu Sheng's questions.
Liu Sheng felt anxious; the unknown was the most terrifying.
But there was nothing she could do now; Little Tentacle was still evolving, which was why she kept talking to divert their attention.
As a result, it was no longer necessary now.
This could only mean that they would take greater action to stop this from happening.
…
A Little Tentacle extended from Jiang Caibin’s body, growing a perfectly round eyeball that peered into the depths of the dungeon.
Late last night, thanks to those deranged jailers, Little Tentacle’s emotions finally reached their peak.
Under violent emotional fluctuations, an invisible energy surged into her body, allowing her to finally break through that barrier and begin to evolve.
Now the entire dungeon had completely transformed into a dark dungeon, with profound darkness seemingly capable of devouring all light. Inside were countless incomprehensible whispers and painful groans, almost driving Jiang Caibin, who stood at the edge of the darkness, into madness.
Fortunately, he quickly stuffed his ears with cloth strips, blocking out these insane ravings.
He saw the Little Tentacle also peeking and poking, looking into the deep darkness, and knew that Liu Sheng was concerned about the progress here, so he shrugged and said, “Still don’t know.”
The Little Tentacle blinked its eye, as if in response.
It also didn’t dare to reach inside to look.
Firstly, it didn't know what the evolution process of a New Human was supposed to be like, and it was afraid that its own sacred power would interfere with Little Tentacle's evolution.
Secondly, because it looked deep and terrifying inside, a sight it had never seen before, and the concentration of Guai Qi was frighteningly high. Following the World’s advice not to probe casually, it would be bad if it fell into the so-called abyss.
However, the Guai Qi that emanated was high in concentration and purity; Little Tentacle took two breaths and almost felt like it was floating straight into the clouds.
“According to the Federal Empire academic community, this Guai Qi is probably dark matter,” Liu Sheng thought silently.
“It’s something we have never truly studied.”
The other Liu Sheng expressed regret.
“According to the popular science readings collected previously, dark matter is a substance in the Universe that cannot be directly observed or detected, and it is an important component for revealing and understanding the Universe.”
“The research potential is enormous, but currently, research progress is pitiful.”
“If progress is pitiful even in the Federal Empire, then our ancient planet where we live probably has even less chance…”
Now Liu Sheng had seen several wonderful worlds.
Although she still didn't know the relationship between Yi Yu's Federal Empire world, Professor Tang's Federal Empire world, and the Federal Empire world where Snake Taoist currently resided.
Due to the varying technological levels of these worlds, Liu Sheng suspected that they might be different periods of the same world, or perhaps not the same world at all.
But she knew that the planet she was currently on was probably an ancient planet in the eyes of others, a low dimension world.
Although it possessed Spiritual Qi, allowing for cultivation and even the development of Spiritual Qi technology, and even the utilization of weird objects, all of this was too far behind the technology of those Federal Empires. Not to mention technological applications, there was also a significant gap in scientific research capabilities.
Perhaps, this was her future goal.
Liu Sheng thought silently.
To improve scientific research capabilities, not just for herself, but for the entire Tang Country.
Ultimately developing the ability to research dark matter and even Universe-scale phenomena…
However, these were all matters for the future.
At present, while Liu Sheng was still waiting for Little Tentacle to complete her evolution, disaster was descending.
This was a disaster capable of destroying the world.
Tomorrow, an extra update, two big chapters.
