The Professional Rankings, in twelve volumes, each bearing the name of my lord.

"Sigh...it's too abstract. I thought my gang of bandits were unbeatable when it came to abstract concepts, but I never imagined Mars had such a genius hidden away!"

Song Gua lay on a sunbathing lounge chair, several servants massaging him, while a large screen in front of him played AI footage, recalling his past.

Song Gua even worried that if he stayed here too long, his spirit would be corrupted.

Forget it, I'll read through my background information first.

Twenty years ago.

Zhou Tak and Hua Tielan, together with a group of top scientists, traveled to Antarctica to conduct scientific research under the protection of several security teams.

Incidentally, Yue Sheng was one of those security teams at the time.

At that time, Zhou Tuk and Hua Tielan's research encountered a bottleneck. They needed to collect and analyze data under the extreme climate of Antarctica in order to make a breakthrough.

It should be noted that Antarctica is the territory of the resistance forces.

The Federation negotiated with the resistance forces on several occasions in response.

The usually hardline resistance has softened its stance this time, even though the Federation has put in a lot of effort to achieve this.

Zhou Tak initially believed that the rebels were willing to let them into Antarctica out of respect for science.

He later learned that the rebels had been luring him into a trap.

When Zhou Tucker and his research team were building a research base in Antarctica.

The rebel leader suddenly appeared.

The security squad that Yue Sheng was in was more than capable of dealing with third-tier and second-tier professionals.

But then the Spirit Illusionist King appeared directly on the other side, so there was no point in resisting.

The key point is that they couldn't resist either; Yun Yang subdued everyone with a single "fixation".

Zhou Tak and Hua Tielan were taken away just like that.

"Could it be the rebels' dark history? Capturing a federal scientist and threatening Athena with suicide? Hmm... this seems like a good idea."

Zhou Tak chuckled.

"The rebels have very high moral standards for themselves. They are different from my son and me; they wouldn't do something like that."

Song Gua rolled his eyes at him.

"Weren't you snoring...? And what do you mean by that...?"

"Hahaha... Huff... Huff..."

"..."

Song Gua ignored him and continued reading.

The reason Yunyang and his group kidnapped the two scientists was not actually to kidnap them or threaten the Federation.

Instead, we asked them for help.

The two were taken to a place.

"The Altar of Divine Fire?"

On the screen, Song Gua saw a familiar scene.

This is the underground palace that the bandit Antarctic detachment discovered, the place that the resistance army called the Divine Fire Altar.

In Zhou Tak's recollection, after he and his wife were arrested, Yun Yang led them inside this altar.

It turned out that the rebels needed their help.

"Please turn on these two life support devices for us."

The memory flashed before my eyes, accompanied by sound.

As if guessing that Song Gua had something to say, Zhou Tak stopped snoring and said.

"Don't be surprised, AI can also repair dialogues. I think we'll fix the details where they need to be more detailed to help you understand what happened back then."

"You really put a lot of effort into making this."

"Scientists are dedicated to everything they do and never compromise on quality."

Song Gua glanced at his luxurious residence.

"I can tell, you don't compromise at all."

The two scientists did not show much resistance to Yunyang's request.

After all, they are ridiculously strong. Cooperating with them might give us a glimmer of hope, while not cooperating with them is simply courting death.

Besides, it's not an unreasonable request.

The life support devices Yun Yang mentioned were the two sleep pod-like objects, one large and one small, that Song Gua had discovered inside the altar.

When Song Gua discovered them, they were all open and covered in dust.

The two devices Zhou Tak recalled, although they looked old, were clean and tidy, as if they were regularly maintained, and neither of them were turned on.

"Some of the technologies used are very outdated, while others are not very clear to us. These root-like things go deep into the ground. Could they be extracting nutrients from the ground to nourish the people in the life support pods?"

Such a design is truly ingenious and represents a very advanced life support device.

But is it really possible to do this with current technology?

After a thorough inspection, Hua Tielan was very surprised by the construction of the two life support devices.

What Yunyang said next shocked the couple even more.

"It's not current technology; they're using technology from nearly 1,200 years ago. The two devices have been running continuously for over a thousand years."

"More than a thousand years?!"

It wasn't just Zhou and Hua in their memories who were shocked.

Looking at the Song Dynasty divination records from memory was equally shocking.

Another twelve hundred years?

This timeframe is exactly the length of time since the introduction of the universal job-changing system!

The two must be related!

Yunyang's request was simple: he wanted them to open the equipment so that the people inside could come out safely and healthily.

Although there were scientists within the resistance, their level of expertise was generally low.

They dared not open the two devices, fearing that improper operation might lead to the death or injury of important people inside.

However, they must be opened recently.

On the one hand, the so-called "appointed time" has arrived; on the other hand, the special energy used by the life support equipment is running out.

Turning on this device is not an easy process.

Zhou Tak and his wife repeatedly examined the documents preserved by the resistance, which were almost covered in grime.

They also requested a lot of equipment and resources from the federal government.

Only after everything is ready can we start turning on the equipment.

"You two scientific giants can rest assured and proceed with the task. Even if the operation fails, we will not blame you."

Yun Yang was telling the truth.

Zhou Tak said proudly.

"It's just opening a box. If we can fail at this, wouldn't Tilland and I be disgraced? Don't worry!"

In the end, everyone was happy.

It opened very smoothly.

However, the people inside the life support equipment surprised everyone present.

The larger device was empty; there was no one there!

Inside the smaller device, there was someone—a crying, hungry baby!

"this……"

Yun Yang was completely baffled.

Zhou Tak asked, "There shouldn't be any mistakes, right? It's impossible for someone to evaporate during the opening process, is it?"

Yun Yang said, puzzled, "We don't know the identities of the people in these two devices either. Perhaps the relevant data was lost, or perhaps it was kept secret. But there should be two people, not just one, and..."

Looking at the tiny, frail baby in the small life support pod, who looked only a few months old, Yun Yang's expression was extremely complicated.

"Is this the one the Agent spoke of, the one who will guide us a thousand years from now? A baby?"

The flashback plays to this point.

Zhou Tak stopped snoring, got up, and pointed at the baby on the screen.

"This is you."

Song Gua was taken aback.

"Clam??"
