Excessive ferocity due to caution

Mechanical Rabbit and Zhao Yi talked about something about the mad inventor.

"As far back as I can remember, my teacher was very old."

"He invented me because by then his legs were very weak, and he needed my help with many things..."

"But he would also often teach me many things, a lot... about humanity."

"I have always admired my teacher. He accomplished many things that others could not. Back then, the Fifth Federation repeatedly invited him to take up a post in the capital, but he refused each time."

Zhao Yi asked curiously:

What kind of place is the capital?

Addison said:

"The largest capital city in the chaotic realm, and also the closest capital city to the Holy Mountain."

"It is incredibly prosperous there, with abundant resources. It has enjoyed a golden age for 30,000 years and is home to the most powerful force in the chaotic world—the Fifth Federation."

"Many beings in the chaotic world yearn for the capital, hoping to take root in such a prosperous era and never suffer the pain of displacement again."

Zhao Yi put down the book in his hand, his eyes filled with great interest.

"If that's the case, why doesn't your teacher go there?"

Addison paused for a moment, then whispered:

"Our teacher was originally from Beijing..."

"I don't know why he doesn't want to go back. Sometimes when I ask him about the scenery of the capital, he will talk at length about the peaceful Chang'an there, with its dazzling neon lights. He is very eloquent, but as soon as I mention going back to the capital, he gets angry..."

The mechanical rabbit in front of them was probably also at the near-Great Ferocity level, but it showed fear whenever the old man got angry.

Zhao Yi leaned against the corner of the table, thought for a moment, and said:

"While I cannot grant your teacher immortality, I do have a way to significantly extend his lifespan."

"But before that, I have a question."

When Edison heard that Zhao Yi had a solution, his eyes lit up.

"If you have any questions, just say so!"

Zhao Yi:

"According to the rules of the Chaotic Realm, even if your teacher dies, can't he still live on as a 'ghost'?"

Why are you so insistent on having your teacher live as a "human being"?

Edison shook his head upon hearing this, his two metal ears snapping loudly.

"You only know one side of the story, not the other..."

"It is true that people can continue to live on as 'ghosts' after they die, but they must maintain a certain obsession."

"The more powerful a being was in life, the harder it is for them to retain their sanity after death. Someone like my teacher, once he dies and becomes a ghost, will inevitably become a great calamity!"

"Given the teacher's proud personality, he certainly wouldn't choose to continue living as a 'ghost'..."

"What I did... was disrespectful to him."

Zhao Yi was surprised.

"Judging from your tone, your teacher is in a bad situation?"

Addison replied:

"Yes, I put the teacher into a sleep pod. Although the teacher won't die in the sleep pod, the teacher will no longer be able to think or speak."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi was deeply moved.

He remembered what L381 (the slide containment object) had told him about the creatures of the Seven Realms.

As beings of the fourth domain, no matter how powerful humans are, they will ultimately not escape the fate of death!

"The method I told you... is related to the Skull Church."

"This church once had a project called X-2..."

Zhao Yi told the mechanical rabbit Edison everything he had seen and heard at Shishan High School in City A.

"When I used the instruments and equipment there to communicate with Chen Qiong (X-2), I discovered that although Chen Qiong was in a very chaotic state, he still possessed his own memories and will. The only difference was that the world he saw had changed drastically..."

"Quantum-state life forms created using this biotechnology can no longer possess the same senses as humans. The world they perceive is entirely composed of data, so it takes a long time for them to adapt."

Addison was stunned:

"This sounds like a good idea, but how do I do it?"

Zhao Yi replied:

Do you know City A?

Addison nodded.

Zhao Yi:

Do you know Guxuan Town?

Addison nodded.

Zhao Yi snapped his fingers.

"Go back to City A and find X-2 in the basement of Shishan High School."

"I will give you a letter of introduction. You can give the letter to X-2, and it will tell you the specific operating procedures... It has personally experienced these procedures. If you are unable to perform the surgery, you can bring your teacher to Guxuan Town to find me, and I will help you complete the surgery."

The mechanical rabbit noted these down and took out paper and pen. Sure enough, Zhao Yi wrote it a letter of recommendation.

However, recommendation letters are quite complicated.

Zhao Yi explained:

"Following the recommendation letter, enter the code above into the machine in the underground laboratory of Ishiyama High School, and X-2 will know that I sent you."

"It shouldn't have left; it couldn't have moved all the facilities and equipment there by itself."

Edison carefully put away the letter and expressed his gratitude to Zhao Yi:

"If this can really help the teacher 'survive' afterward, I will definitely thank you properly!"

Zhao Yi waved his hand:

"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow again—how many tomorrows are there?"

"Don't wait until later, you can thank me now!"

Addison sensed something was amiss, but still asked:

What do you want?

Zhao Yi:

"I want to see the pig-headed man who was imprisoned with you."

"Its name is Oink."

Edison shook his head upon hearing this.

"You must not see him, for he will kill every living thing he sees!"

"That pig-headed man is too strong... even I am no match for him."

A hint of doubt flashed across Zhao's eyes:

"Wasn't he sealed away?"

Edison scoffed:

"That eye can indeed seal Oink, but only for a short time."

"The Silent Containment Facility is just a medium-sized containment facility under the Skull Church. The Skull Church has countless such containment facilities in the Chaotic Realm. Opening that eye requires a huge amount of energy, and the Church won't invest too much in a medium-sized containment facility..."

Zhao Yi suddenly realized.

"Then do me a favor."

Addison asked:

"What kind of help?"

Zhao Yi took out a pig-slaughtering knife covered in blood.

"Give this knife to Oink for me."

When Edison saw the knife, the signal in his red eyes fluctuated wildly.

"This is... the knife he dropped earlier?"

Zhao Yi smiled and said:

"Yes."

Addison's tone was serious:

"Do you know what will happen if you give this knife to Oink?"

"What will happen?"

"Oink, the Butcher of Heaven... will slaughter everything here!"

"Even if we escape beforehand and avoid Oink's massacre, we'll still be targeted by the Church of the Skull!"

"Believe me, you don't want to be targeted by the Skull Church... Even the Fifth Federation in the capital is having a huge headache with this organization!"

Zhao Yi:

"Then why don't we just not run away beforehand?"

Addison jumped up:

"You're a fucking lunatic!"

"I'm not doing that for you... I don't want to attract the attention of the Skull Church!"

Zhao Yi slowly began to speak:

"There's a creature from the Fifth Domain in the containment facility, coded L381. That thing has a talent: it can use its mental power to create an alternate dimension. I've already told it that the containment facility will be destroyed. When that happens, we'll just hide inside its alternate dimension and cut off its connection to the outside world..."

"Oink's hatred has been drawn away by the others in the asylum; he won't notice us."

"As long as it doesn't notice us, it won't be able to find us once the connection between the alternate dimension and the outside world is severed."

Zhao Yi was very confident about this.

Since learning the "Divine Brush," he has gained a considerable understanding of L381's alternate dimension. There are some things that L381 cannot do on its own, but Zhao Yi can.

As long as L381 has open permissions.

With Zhao's half-step into the Great Ferocity's spiritual power, combined with L381's talent, unless the Heavenly Butcher is a true Great Ferocity, there is absolutely no way he can find them!

P.S.: I need to go to the hospital again tomorrow.

I'll write another chapter tonight.

Thank you for reading.
