As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

Chapter 274 Misjudgment (asking for monthly ticket!)
Li Miaomiao was well aware of the unusual events in London.

Since Kechuang Biotechnology was the organizer of the press conference, ultra-high-definition videos from different camera angles on site were synchronously transmitted back to Kechuang Biotechnology’s headquarters in China.

Li Miaomiao knew that there was a wizard behind the water element.

However, my understanding of the incident was only superficial, and I had no idea about the motive, specific reasons, or who the other party was.

Li Miaomiao had a hunch that what Song Zhiwen said today could solve some of his doubts.

Song Zhiwen had no idea how many times he should think about what to say in his work report, especially at such an important moment.

Song Zhiwen needs to pass the message to Li Miaomiao and Zheng Li behind her.

In Song Zhiwen's opinion, Zheng Li, as the first openly identified mage in China, must have very close ties with the authorities.

Even if there is no close connection, Zheng Li will help him decide whether to tell the Chinese officials about this matter.

Zheng Li's vision must be broader than his.

More importantly, if Song Zhiwen contacts the Chinese officials directly, he may not gain their trust, and it is very likely that the information will be delayed for a long time.

Song Zhiwen began to talk about how he acquired magic and his speculations.

“Since then, when I recreated the magic in the real world, I realized that I was not dreaming.

But I really entered the magical world through the futureverse."

Whenever Song Zhiwen mentions it, there is still an expression of obvious disbelief on his face.

You should know that facial expression management is a basic course if you want to get into a senior management position.

Song Zhiwen's way of learning magic is different from theirs.

He was playing the second-generation brain-computer VR in the hotel where he was staying when he discovered an unknown icon appeared on the VR main interface.

After clicking, he entered a magic academy.

After Song Zhiwen clicked on the black vortex icon, his entire consciousness felt a noticeable pulling sensation.

Then I found myself in a very dark space.

After waking up, he looked around and found that he was surrounded by humans with different skin colors, hair colors, and iris colors.

And then anyone who speaks in front of everyone is not even considered a human being.

The face looked a bit like a lion, and Song Zhiwen even had doubts as to whether the body under the robe was a human.

He entered a different dimension completely different from the Blue Planet through the second-generation brain-computer connection VR.

Li Miaomiao was also surprised after hearing this: "Are you saying that you entered the magic world through our brain-computer connection VR?"

Song Zhiwen nodded and said, "That's right, VR is just a channel for me to enter the magic world.

This does not mean that everyone can enter the magical world through brain-computer connection VR.

When I came back to the real world, the black vortex icon I had seen in VR had disappeared.

Whether it is the download records of the VR application market, or the traffic records of the VR device I used that I found a specialized technician to check after I returned to China.

There is no trace of that app.

You should know that using apps requires data traffic. If Magic World is a VR application, the records can be deleted, but the data traffic cannot be deleted. "

Song Zhiwen continued: “My understanding of VR is far beyond that of ordinary people.

As an executive at Ke Chuang Future, I will be the first to use almost all brain-computer connected VR.

Although the second-generation brain-computer connection VR was only launched at the end of last year, I have been experiencing it for more than three months since its launch.

I am sure that the magic academy-like world I entered is definitely not something that can be achieved with current VR technology.

You know the air in London is very humid.

The five-star hotel I stayed in London had a dehumidifier, but I didn't use it.

In the magic academy, the air smelled of old wood and a faint smell of sulfur.

The air felt very different than the London air I woke up to.

Our VR technology cannot simulate smells. Even Tencent’s olfactory peripherals cannot simulate such detailed smells.”

Li Miaomiao nodded: "Compared with the sense of smell in the real world, the types of Tencent's olfactory peripherals are very limited."

Song Zhiwen: "I know it was definitely not a dream. If it was a dream, it wouldn't be so clear."

"After I reproduced magic in reality, I became even more certain of this."

"Later, during my stay in London, I didn't leave the hotel except for eating. Besides studying magic, I searched for clues related to magic on the Internet."

"I've noticed that since the end of last year, there has been an explosive increase in magical sightings across London."

Li Miaomiao: "I believe what you said, because I have heard about the anomalies in London.

It's rare for this to happen to you, but it's still possible."

Song Zhiwen said sincerely: "Thank you very much for your trust in me.

I have no motive or need to deceive you on this matter."

There is one thing that Song Zhiwen omitted, and that is the magic wand, which can greatly enhance a wizard's spellcasting ability.

He is selective in revealing.

Both Goldman Sachs and Temasek have many employees in London and they have many investment projects in London.

These are the small shareholders behind Kechuang Bio. When their executives communicate with Li Miaomiao privately, they will reveal some of the situation in London to Li Miaomiao.

With a psychological preconception, Li Miaomiao was more likely to believe what Song Zhiwen said.

“What is the purpose you told me, what do you hope to achieve?
With the help of the company's technical strength, explore what exactly is the app you entered?
Or do you want to go back to London?"

Li Miaomiao's question was completely within Song Zhiwen's expectations. He replied:

"Mr. Li, after I learn magic, I hope to work for the London branch of Kechuang Future or Kechuang Biotechnology.

In addition, I hope to obtain the company's assistance. In return, I will record everything related to the magical events in London in detail and tell the company.

I think there’s a big secret in this.”

Li Miaomiao sneered and said, "Since there is a big secret here, why should it be your turn?
I think you were a little too confident, or maybe even arrogant, after you got your magic in London.

First of all, it's the English government. How sure are you that you can find out the secret behind the magic right under the nose of the English government and then report the news back?

If the secrets behind the magic were so easy to find out, flights to London wouldn’t be suspended until today.”

Li Miaomiao continued, “Besides, all you can do when you return to London is to figure out what happened to you.

For example, why do we talk about the specific casting range of magic, those areas in London.

Never mind, this matter is a bit too complicated.

Let me ask you first, do you want to go back to London, or continue to stay in China and treat this as a dream? "

“Perhaps in the future, I can relive the feeling of magic when I travel or go on a business trip to London.”

Song Zhiwen was ashamed at first, then after thinking for a while he said, "I still want to go back to London."

No one can resist the charm of supernatural power, let alone this power is one that they have mastered.

Song Zhiwen knew that if he didn't return to London, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Li Miaomiao nodded and said, "Okay, but you can't go back as a Kechuang Bio employee.

I will communicate with the Chinese authorities and explain your situation to them. As for the Chinese officials, they must be very happy to have an observation sample of London's magical events.

They will arrange your return to London and give you an identity to return to London.

Once you have thought it through, you can submit your resignation application. After you submit your resignation application, I will arrange for someone from the relevant Chinese agency to contact you."

Song Zhiwen looked very unhappy when he left Li Miaomiao's office.

He realized he had miscalculated.

The reason why he went to Li Miaomiao to report this matter was that he hoped to borrow the power of Ke Chuang Biological.

Because he only learned magic through brain-computer connection VR, and he only took one class.

Song Zhiwen would naturally think of the size of London, and Futureverse's holdings in the London area are probably around 500,000.

Of course, he wasn't the only one who learned magic in this way.

Therefore, Song Zhiwen hopes to use Ke Chuang Future’s data in London to find people who have the same experience as him.

Then, in various ways, he learned from the other party the magic that he didn't know.

In this regard, Kechuang Biotechnology can provide him with greater convenience than the Chinese government.

At the same time, it is difficult to have a strong restraining effect on him in the system of Ke Chuang Biotechnology. It is not up to him to decide whether the specific information should be reported to the headquarters.

If he cooperates with the Chinese government, then such cooperation will be mandatory and it is impossible for all of his family members to go to London with him.

To Song Zhiwen's surprise, Li Miaomiao was not interested at all after hearing about magic, and was completely uninterested in the secrets behind the magical events in London.

In the end, he even got the upper hand.

Song Zhiwen knew that his retreat was blocked.

He would not be willing to stay in the country forever and lose his supernatural powers.

But if he wanted to go to London, after revealing the reason to Li Miaomiao, it would be impossible for him to transfer there through the channels of Ke Chuang Biotechnology, let alone borrow the energy of Ke Chuang Biotechnology.

"Alas, I still underestimated her. Now I can only cooperate with the Chinese government."

For Song Zhiwen, cooperating with the Chinese government is the worst option.

However, he no longer had any choice. If he wanted to return to London, he could only cooperate with the Chinese authorities.

As for leaving Ke Chuang Bio and going to London through other Chinese Internet giants, this road has been blocked after telling Li Miaomiao the truth.

He couldn't guarantee that Li Miaomiao would not tell the Chinese officials the news.

"To put it simply, Song Zhiwen learned magic in London, and then he wanted to return to London to work.

Maybe they want to use the energy of scientific and technological innovation, but it doesn’t matter anymore.

If he eventually decides to return to London, we'll refer the matter directly to the Bureau of Anomalous Matters.

There is no reason for us to interfere in this matter.”

Zheng Li asked curiously: "Aren't you very interested in magic?"

Zheng Li's subtext is why he handed Song Zhiwen over to the Chinese officials instead of taking control of the matter himself.

After Li Miaomiao understood, she explained: “There is no need for this.

It is clear that London is now a whirlpool with various forces involved.

No matter how amazing the secrets contained in it are, the probability of us becoming the final winner is less than one in ten thousand.

Moreover, Song Zhiwen may not necessarily bring back the information or physical objects honestly.

There are too many uncontrollable factors and the risks far outweigh the benefits.

There is no need for us to take such risks.

Sometimes you need to curb your curiosity

Hand it over to the Chinese government. Whether they gain any benefit or not, we will get a share of it.”

Li Miaomiao saw it clearly and there was no need to take risks.

There are countless uncontrollable risks in the process, and the returns are still a complete blind box.

Zheng Li: "I have no objection. I'll do as you wish."

"The magic that Song Zhiwen mentioned is indeed of no value to us."

Song Zhiwen overestimated the value of the things he mentioned in Li Miaomiao's heart.

Li Miaomiao knew very well that neither she nor Zheng Li would have the chance to go to London in their lifetime.

A magic limited to London, they in China don’t even have a way to tell whether they have learned it or not.

Not to mention verifying the news that Song Zhiwen brought back from London.

Li Miaomiao and Song Zhiwen continued their communication until the end, and Li Miaomiao never asked him what magic he mastered.

“Don’t even mention that I have the magic brain now. Even if I didn’t have the magic brain, I would not choose to let Song Zhiwen return to London in the name of Ke Chuang Future’s executive to do things that have nothing to do with the company.

Magic is important, but not important enough to take such great risks."

Li Miaomiao has been in the workplace for many years, and she can remain calm and objective most of the time.

Zheng Li: "Well, after you have completed the deep integration with the Magic Brain, you will know that the magic of the Magic Brain system brings you cognition.

And the magic that Song Zhiwen mentioned, if you can release it just by learning the spell, then it is not magic at all, it is more appropriate to describe it as a trick. "

In the end, Song Zhiwen chose to return to London.

After Li Miaomiao passed the news to the Bureau of Anomalous Matters, they were very interested.

This is a living specimen of London's magical events.

Just being able to get a lot of first-hand information from Song Zhiwen is attractive enough.

Not to mention that Song Zhiwen also claimed that he had learned magic.

Song Zhiwen was taken away by the Bureau of Anomalous Matters. The Chinese side planned to give him professional training and then send him to London.

No one will care that Kechuang Future has lost a vice president.

In the system of Ke Chuang Biotechnology, no one is indispensable except Zheng Li.

For Song Zhiwen, he has started a life that is completely different from the past.

But whether he can get what he wants through this gamble of fate is completely unknown.

The world operates according to its own rules, and Zheng Li will not care too much about the resignation of the vice president of a subsidiary company.

Not to mention that Song Zhiwen's return to London is still under his control. The specific locations and information of the individuals who have obtained magic are all in Zheng Li's control.

As his research deepened, Zheng Li achieved new results in bioinformatics networks. He can now control the human body over long distances with ultra-low latency.

This means that new plans can begin.

Zheng Li has always been interested in the high-energy physics of the Blue Planet.

He had never had the opportunity to come into contact with similar equipment in the Mage Alliance before.

Although the wizard can control the particles in the microscopic world, he can only control them, and cannot analyze their essence or understand the specific three-dimensional or even higher-dimensional structure of the particles.
