They traveled through time at the same time, but the villainous scientist

Chapter 473 Kenneth has invested in the Chaldea project.
"This is……"

Marisbury Animusfia's gaze fell on the dark object, and then he examined it closely.

There was no trace of magic circuits, no rune markings, and even the material itself was unanalyzable...

But this thing gave him a rather familiar feeling, not from knowledge or memory, but a deeper kind of throbbing, as if it resonated with his soul.

Seeing this, Weber silently admired it.

Mr. Kenneth is really amazing...

When he first saw this thing, which his teacher named the "Gaia Memory," the shock he experienced was no less than that of the monarch of astronomy.

He had thought that the astronomical monarch might be able to see through the mystery, but now it seemed that even a genius standing at the top of the clock tower would be confused by this technology that was ahead of its time.

Inside the Clock Tower, perhaps no one understands the concept of a "planet" better than the monarch of the Animusphia family.

Maris Billy finally picked up the "USB drive" and gently twirled it between his fingertips.

He certainly knew what a USB flash drive was; it was an inexpensive contraption used in the world of electronic computers to store data, encoding binary sequences of 0s and 1s by recording the state of microscopic electrons.

But the essence of this thing is completely different from that kind of superficial technology.

His thumb found the side with the gold letter "T" embossed on it, where there was a small bump that looked like a button.

Driven by curiosity, he pressed it gently.

"MAGMA!"

A deep, inhuman electronic synthesized voice echoed in the silent living room.

The next moment, something strange happened!
There were no magic incantations, no rituals, and not even the slightest fluctuation of magic.

Right in front of Maris Billy, a fist-sized, bright orange fluid appeared out of thin air.

It churned and boiled, emitting a suffocatingly high temperature, instantly heating the surrounding air and distorting it into visible ripples.

A strong smell of sulfur filled the air, and the scorching light cast flickering shadows on Marisbury's astonished face.

Lava, with a temperature reaching thousands of degrees, defied all physical laws and mystical principles, and suddenly appeared in this elegant reception room.

"how did you do it?"

Marisbury waved his hand, and the lava vanished from its spot.

He suddenly stood up, and for the first time, an undisguised solemnity appeared on his usually composed face.

He stared intently at Kenneth, his voice hoarse with shock.

Their Animusfia family's crown designation is "to guarantee the continuation of human history."

To achieve this ultimate goal spanning several generations, the core theory their family developed was to simulate the soul of a planet, create a simulated Earth model called "Chaldea," and then observe Earth's past to deduce the only future that would allow human civilization to continue.

Therefore, he knew better than anyone what had just happened.

He was certain that the data stored inside that "USB drive" was from "Earth"!

It is not complete intelligence about the entire planet, but rather a fragmented data slice based on the concept of "lava".

Through some unknown means, the "memories" recorded inside the planet are extracted and materialized.

This is almost identical to the legendary "manifestation of fantasy," a power possessed only by the planet's sense of touch—the True Ancestor!

"Ha... [The Book of False Gods]."

Faced with Maris Billy's almost out-of-control questioning, Kenneth simply smiled, picked up his tea, and slowly uttered a single word.

He gave a brief explanation.

Last year, he went to Kanbuko City in Japan and found Genki Satsuki.

Afterwards, using the cross-world data he obtained through the [Main God Space], combined with his own profound research into the origins of runes, he finally succeeded in deciphering some of this guy's abilities.

This is also why, as he said, the Gaia Memory technology arrived at just the right time...

"A unified language..."

Maris Billy muttered to himself, his handsome face filled with disbelief.

The divine is an extension of the origin, and their relationship is like that of a tree trunk and its branches. For this reason, the language used by the divine is directly linked to the underlying rules of the world.

Even without using a single ounce of magic, simply "speaking to the world" can trigger all sorts of incredible phenomena.

Therefore, magicians regard this language as the original explanation of the meaning of all things, capable of forming absolute class oppression at the "ontological" level, and making the content of language an undeniable truth through the phenomenon of "absolute language".

At the end of the Age of Gods, humans who learned this language became arrogant and attempted to challenge the authority of the gods. As a result, the gods split the unified language into countless different languages, cutting off the shortcut for humans to reach the realm of the gods.

In modern times, as far as he knows, only one magician named Genki Satsuki has learned this ability by chance.

Such a rare case was naturally classified as a "sealing designation" of the highest level by the Mage's Association, but decades later, its abilities still cannot be reproduced.

But now he was certain that there was no flow of magic the moment the lava appeared; the rules of the "world" itself had been temporarily rewritten.

The problem is, he doesn't know any common language, and he didn't even use magic; he simply pressed the black creation...

“I call this device the Gaia Memory…”

Seeing this, Kenneth continued.

There are two main challenges with this technology.

Firstly, how to extract 'memories' from the planet.

In the world of Kamen Rider W, the Sonozaki family was able to do this because they found a 'well' that leads directly to the interior of the planet.

In this world, there are actually quite a few methods for extracting data...

Secondly, there is the technology for storing and using these 'memories,' which is the Gaia Memory itself.

"Hoo... Gaia's memories..."

After a long while, Maris Billy let out a long breath, as if to expel the shock in his chest.

"How do you want to cooperate?"

This rebel of the clock tower, this monarch ridiculed by countless people as "devoting himself to money," has shown things that have far exceeded his imagination.

“I am very interested in 'Chaldea'.”

Kenneth finally put down his teacup and revealed his true purpose.

His gaze fell calmly on Maris Billy, yet it seemed to carry a weight that penetrated everything.

"hiss--!"

Weber, who had been listening quietly, gasped the moment he heard the word.

He felt as if an invisible hand was squeezing his heart.

Chaldea! This is what his teacher is after! He never expected his teacher to have such a huge appetite, demanding the core technology that the Animusphia family had spent generations and poured all their efforts into developing right off the bat!
What's the difference between this and demanding a magical inscription that someone's family has passed down for hundreds of years right in front of them?!

However, to Weber's surprise, Marisbury did not fly into a rage, nor did he show the slightest sign of being offended.

He remained silent for a moment, seemingly engaged in rapid thought and weighing of options.

"To complete Chaldea, this alone is not enough."

He finally spoke, his voice low and hoarse.

The technology Kenneth demonstrated is no less powerful than the Animusfia family's heritage; in fact, in a sense, the two belong to the same system and can complement each other.

But the key issue is that technology alone is far from enough to translate theory into reality.

A lot of resources are still needed...

"Ah……"

Upon hearing this, Kenneth's lips curled into a confident smile.

"Other issues are negotiable. As for your concerns about funding, I personally have about $500 million in liquid funds available at the moment."

"Huh?! How much did you say?!"
