“Alright!” Shang Jianyao was very enthusiastic.
After wrapping up the remains and putting them into their backpacks, they searched the laboratory ruins for a while but didn’t find any other clues.
Upon seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Baimian made the order to return.
Just as the Old Task Force returned to the room in the building of the previous estate, Shang Jianyao suddenly said, “Quick, give me the remains!”
His eyes lit up as if he had thought of something interesting.
“What do you want it for?” Jiang Baimian asked suspiciously.
With a beaming smile, Shang Jianyao replied, “I plan on piecing together these bones, carrying the corpse, and wearing the name tag to enter my Sea of Origins to see how Xiaochong’s rift reacts. If it reacts, it means that this corpse is indeed related to him!”
Jiang Baimian deliberated and asked, “Won’t you worried that it’s really Xiaochong’s corpse?”
Shang Jianyao chuckled. “I’ve thought it through.”
Everyone dies? Long Yuehong replied inwardly.
Shang Jianyao continued, “It doesn’t matter even if it’s Xiaochong’s corpse. The fact that the rift still exists means that Xiaochong is still alive and that nothing serious has happened. Think about it. Don’t mechanical monks have corresponding corpses?”
Long Yuehong wanted to say, “You call this nothing serious has happened” but he realized that it seemed to be the case when he heard the latter sentence.
The existence of mechanical monks proved that humans could already escape their mortal coils.
“Then, give it a try.” Jiang Baimian had no other options anyway.
Shang Jianyao happily pieced together the bones. Then, they realized that this skeleton was missing a head and half a body.
Without hesitation, Shang Jianyao put on the name tag, lay beside the skeleton, and hugged it. He then massaged his temples and quickly fell asleep.
In the Sea of Origins, Shang Jianyao’s figure appeared.
He simultaneously conjured a name tag and the skeleton. He used his two selves as wings and flew into the air toward the deep rift that represented Xiaochong.
However, nothing had changed.
Ever since it fused with the aura from the Holm Fertility Center, Xiaochong’s rift seemed to have frozen.
“Sigh…” Shang Jianyao sighed and tried throwing a bone into the rift.
The bone was a non-corporeal item he had conjured. Once it left his Sea of Origins, it immediately disappeared without causing any ripples.
After many attempts failed, Shang Jianyao muttered to himself regretfully, “It’s not Xiaochong’s?”
He then left his Sea of Origins and returned to the real world.
Somewhere in a valley in Icefield where green grass grew over fertile lands, the temperature was like the south.
End Year City’s Elder Lawton lay on his bed and entered the Mind Corridor.
He was an Awakened who had explored the depths and was currently searching for the door that led to the New World.
He had already been to the rooms that End Year City knew of. With nothing he was familiar with, he could only attempt unfamiliar rooms that he had never come into contact with.
After walking along the aisle covered in thick, dark-yellow carpet for a while, Lawton finally saw a new room: 131..
