Chapter 92 Star Chasing Journey (13)
Yu Jinling had no mind to care about what Song Ru was doing at this moment.
Because she heard her parents' voices coming from the doorway.
"Xiaolingzi, it's Daddy! Open the door quickly!"
"Clap, clap," it sounded exactly like her father's knocking when he returned from hunting.
"Ling'er, how are you? Why aren't you opening the door?" This was her mother's anxious voice.
Are they really my parents?
Yu Jinling, already somewhat dazed, actually started seriously considering why her parents would be here, and slowly walked towards the door…
For some reason, the memory of burying her parents was completely cast out of her mind.
Song Ru, in the darkness, silently curved her lips.
…
In another room, Chen Shanyuan, who was resting with his eyes closed, also heard a knock at the door.
Is this She Chan's voice?
"Captain, I found something at the village chief's house! I've thought of a solution for this Weird Domain!"
That fast?
However, that She Chan looked clever, and her strength was probably hidden, so it was entirely possible for her to make such a discovery.
But before Chen Shanyuan could make any move, Kuang Bowen grabbed his sleeve, and when he turned to look, Kuang Bowen shook his head at him and gestured "shhh."
Then let's listen to Bowen.
Chen Shanyuan was also used to relying on Kuang Bowen's brain, mainly just listening to advice.
Suddenly, the sound of a door opening came from the entrance.
They looked over, only to see Lu Junan grasping the doorknob, with the door opened a crack.
He looked at them with a bewildered and confused expression and said, "Why aren't you opening the door for Sister She Chan?"
…
Of course, because She Chan wasn't free to play tricks!
Liu Sheng was still in Professor Tang's basement, studying diligently and attentively.
She could understand why Chen Shanyuan and the others couldn't stand staying here for even a moment.
Because there were at least a hundred weird objects' remains here.
As soon as Liu Sheng walked down the stairs, she could feel a cold aura from the abyss spreading from the dark end of the staircase, bringing with it a suffocating silence.
Stepping down the last step, Little Tentacle's vision pierced through the heavy darkness, first seeing a large table scattered with various manuscripts and books.
Liu Sheng extended Little Tentacle and quickly flipped through them; the handwriting was chaotic, the sentences incoherent, as if the writer's mind was already muddled and delirious.
She could vaguely make out words like "flying," "aliens," "Universe," and "escape."
Behind the table was a seemingly endless row of rusted shelves, corroded by years of neglect.
The shelves were filled with various bottles and jars, containing unidentifiable biological specimens, their twisted and deformed shapes floating silently in the preservative liquid; even though they had been disassembled into fragments and fixed in glass jars, they still made one's vision distort, as if a single glance would drive one to madness.
The air was filled with a pungent chemical smell, mixed with an indescribable odor of decay, making it nauseating.
This Professor Tang probably didn't know that weird objects couldn't be contained this way; this incorrect method allowed Guai Qi to dissipate everywhere and mutually grow.
Little Tentacle told Liu Sheng that the Guai Qi concentration here was extremely, terrifyingly high, but at the same time, it was also very, very delicious, and it was already preparing for a hearty meal.
Liu Sheng took out her Ghost Qi Detector and found that this place had reached an extremely dangerous Rank Three; anyone with less than eighty toughness would go mad after staying here for half an hour.
Behind the shelves, an iron operating table stood coldly, scattered with various surgical instruments, their metallic surfaces gleaming sinisterly in the darkness.
On the walls, various incredibly bloody photos were nailed, along with a huge design blueprint that looked like a ghost's scribble, smudged with blood everywhere, likely caused by someone immediately starting to record after finishing some bizarre experiment on the operating table, with blood all over their hands.
Liu Sheng carefully examined the blueprint, involuntarily frowning. The content on the blueprint was both unfamiliar and complex to her, but she still tried to decipher the strange lines and shapes.
Overall, it looked… a bit like a fish, but it also seemed exaggerated and distorted.
Its head was sharp, and its tail fanned out, inexplicably making Liu Sheng imagine this thing soaring through the Void Realm.
The streamlined surface was covered with various strange circles, lines, and irregular patterns, as if they were ancient symbols or indecipherable texts.
Some parts of the blueprint looked as if they had been cut open, revealing layers of intricate and complex structures, but this structure was neither like architecture nor any known instrument; instead, it somewhat resembled flesh and organs.
The object designed in this blueprint seemed to have its own logic and order, but this was completely beyond Liu Sheng's understanding.
What exactly was Professor Tang doing?
How did she catch so many weird objects?
What was she going to do with these weird objects?
Liu Sheng sat at the desk, opened "world 2.0," and began to organize these materials with "world 2.0."
She directly handed the difficult-to-read notes to "world 2.0," letting it deduce the true meaning using the tian yan stone's core deduction ability to piece it together.
And the books on the table, they didn't all seem to be misleading knowledge; there were titles like "A Million Whys," "One Hundred Thousand Unsolved Mysteries," and "Elementary School Experiment Encyclopedia," which seemed quite suitable for Liu Sheng, who was still a scientific novice, to learn from.
In addition to these more basic books, there were also "Principles of Physics," "Aerospace Science," "Quantum Mechanics," and so on on the bookshelf, but these books looked much newer than the ones on the table, indicating they probably hadn't been flipped through much.
Clearly, Professor Tang had her own preferences.
In any case, Liu Sheng first entered all of them into "world 2.0"; she could slowly read them later.
Fortunately, "world 2.0" now had the tian yan stone, a data-hungry youngling, so it could digest any amount of information, and the more information it had, the more it could grow; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to handle so much information.
According to Liu Sheng's newly learned knowledge, since she hadn't installed a hard drive for "World," the memory of "World" before the upgrade was probably pitifully small.
While Liu Sheng was reading "A Million Whys," countless tentacles on her body danced wildly, looking even more bizarre than all the weird objects here.
"Don't just eat by yourself! Quickly feed books to 'world 2.0'!" Liu Sheng glanced, speechless.
Little Tentacle, who was stealthily opening glass jars to absorb the residual weird objects inside, reluctantly split off a few more tentacles and obediently kept handing books to "world 2.0."
Although the weird objects in the jars had been dismembered countless times, and Guai Qi had been dissipating for many years, the sheer quantity was overwhelming; Little Tentacle was full after eating from just a few shelves, and even felt a bit sleepy.
"You said you're going to evolve?"
Liu Sheng didn't expect that Little Tentacle, after following her through feast and famine, was finally going to evolve.
She also didn't know what Little Tentacle would evolve into, but thinking of "Mom" Wang Juan's world-destroying image, Liu Sheng felt a bit eager.
"Then go to sleep; I can protect myself."
Little Tentacle was worried about Liu Sheng's safety and forced itself to stay awake, so Liu Sheng had to comfort it.
So Little Tentacle retracted into Liu Sheng's body and lay dormant, even snoring softly.
Liu Sheng felt a bit unaccustomed for a moment; without Little Tentacle sharing its vision and constantly chattering in her mind, the entire basement became quiet and dim, with only the screen of "world 2.0" glowing faintly.
"world 2.0" had also finished inputting all the data and was currently integrating and analyzing it.
Liu Sheng heard two "beep" sounds and knew that "world 2.0" had produced results.
So she put down the "Elementary School Reads Quantum Mechanics" in her hand and leaned in to look.
Upon seeing it, her brows furrowed tightly.
"So that's how it is…"
Liu Sheng, in her concentration, didn't notice the wooden door at the top of the stairs being knocked.
"Knock, knock, knock," it echoed rhythmically in the empty house.
