I write obituaries for the gods

Soon, they entered an open area, with a bridge in front of them and a huge archway on the other side.

The interior of the archway is silvery-white, creating a striking contrast with the surrounding gray concrete, as if it were a creation from two different eras.

“It’s over there,” Lin Chen said as he exited the Mirage City. “Wu Hao crossed the bridge directly and then entered the gate using biometrics.”

"I'll go first," Li Zhanyi stepped forward.

"Be careful, I have a feeling this kind of place is perfect for trouble." Jiang Zhengge frowned.

Lin Chen and Li Zhanyi both looked at Jiang Zhengge.

"I'm not saying anything more." Jiang Zhengge slapped his own mouth, realizing he had made a mistake.

This is bad, I feel like there's no escaping it and things are going to go wrong...

Lin Chen stayed close behind Li Zhanyi as they crossed the bridge together.

Halfway there, suddenly, an alarm sounded at the base:

"The full lockdown system is being activated. Attention, the entrance to Facility 3 will soon be sealed off."

"Zizzizi..."

In the darkness in the distance, the sound of flowing water gradually rose, from a trickle to a roar, in just a few seconds.

"Damn it, are we that unlucky? The facilities were sealed off right when we arrived?" Jiang Zhengge cursed.

Lin Chen and Li Zhanyi both looked at Jiang Zhengge.

"Damn it, it's my fault," Jiang Zhengge sighed. "Don't just stand there, run!"

The three of them started running across the bridge almost simultaneously, the roar of the water growing louder as the gray waves approached.

That giant wave will wash away the bridge, but if it only washes away the bridge, that should be a minor matter.

The key point is that a sour smell has inexplicably filled the air!

Those giant waves were clearly not ordinary water!

"It's too late!"

Seeing the giant wave about to arrive, Lin Chen scooped up Li Zhanyi in his arms, projected the power of "Sky-Supporting" onto her, and threw her violently to the other side of the bridge.

"Wow ah ah!"

Li Zhanyi shouted and flew out; almost simultaneously, a giant wave roared in—

"boom!!!!"

Jiang Zhengge suddenly stretched out his hand, and the gale blasted a circular crater out of the giant wave, maintaining a small space.

Lin Chen's first reaction was to use Euclid's power to open the door and send himself and Lao Jiang directly there.

However, when he blindfolded himself and began to sense the coordinates, he found that he could not sense anything!

Facility Three is interfering with any attempts to teleport!

As expected of TM's top-secret facility... Lin Chen gritted his teeth, consuming his Azure Energy to project a dock cargo container onto the bridge—

"boom!"

He projected one dock container after another, which were placed on the bridge to form a passage.

"Zizzizi!"

The water flow impacted the cargo box, and the surface immediately emitted a harsh, corrosive sound that made Lin Chen's heart pound.

If this thing hits someone directly, they're doomed!

"How much longer!" Jiang Zhengge shouted.

Thirty seconds!

Lin Chen projected the cargo boxes one by one, connected them together, and then emptied the center.

Jiang Zhengge's hands began to tremble: the water pressure was so great that even if he pushed himself to the limit, he was gradually losing his strength.

"Faster..." Lin Chen gritted his teeth, his temples throbbing with pain as he continued to project his thoughts.

This was the first time he had ever projected such a large amount of matter into the real world. It had to be said that doing so was much more difficult than projecting the power of a demigod!

"Damn... I'm fucking retiring soon..."

Jiang Zhengge roared, veins bulging on his forehead.

Just as he felt he was about to lose consciousness, he suddenly felt the pressure on his hands lessen.

"Then why haven't you retired yet?"

A familiar voice came from behind him, causing Jiang Zhengge to shudder slightly.

He turned his head and saw a head of sea-blue curly hair flowing on the bridge, the magnificent acid waves sweeping over her head without touching her at all.

Sylvia Boswell strolled over, her gait as graceful as if she were walking on a stage.

Today, she wasn't wearing that Rom-style demigod outfit, but rather the one that left Jiang Zhengge bewildered: a white shirt and tie, a black vest, a black coat, and a black long skirt.

All black, as black as a crow.

That's the standard uniform for investigators.

"Let's go, what are you all standing there for?" Xileina said calmly. "Want to get drenched?"

"Alright!" Lin Chen shouted.

He turned his head, glanced at tide Leina, and then grabbed the section chief, pulling him into the tunnel made of cargo boxes.

The two ran all the way to the entrance of the facility as fast as they could.

"Are you alright?" Li Zhanyi quickly came over. "Old Jiang, your face is so pale... Hey?"

She raised her gun and pointed it at the third figure emerging from the cargo container.

“That’s impolite,” tide Lena said, closing her eyes. “Without me, your Lao Jiang would probably have to retire early.”

“Xiao Lin clearly had enough time to get me out,” Jiang Zhengge said, panting. “It was you who wanted to help.”

"What do you call this? Crossing the river and then burning the bridge?" tide Leina laughed. "Then I won't save you next time, okay?"

"what are you doing here?"

Lin Chen stood in front of Jiang Zhengge, facing tide Leina directly.

He understood that the girl in front of him was an old acquaintance of Jiang Zhengge and a senior colleague of the Investigation Bureau.

But her primary identity is that of a demigod.

The Foundation's demigod.

Lin Chen would not show any pity for his enemies on the battlefield just because he had heard her story and knew about her tragic past.

"..."

Facing the deep blue light shimmering in Lin Chen's eyes, tide Leina sighed softly.

“My elder brother has kept many things from me,” she said. “This facility is one of them.”

"I'm just here to gather some intelligence, so I won't be completely blind and become someone else's pawn. That's all."

"What are you doing wearing the Investigation Bureau uniform?" Jiang Zhengge frowned.

"Isn't it obvious?"

tide Leina looked down at her clothes, straightened her collar, and gave a faint smile:

"If we get caught, we can just shift the blame to your investigation bureau, right?"

Everyone: ......

That's quite a cunning tactic...

"What's wrong? You're not planning to fight me here, are you?" tide Lena tilted her head. "Let me remind you, the acid wave outside means this facility is about to self-destruct. I guess they're planning to discard the person you let in after they've served their purpose."

"Are we going to waste our time here?"

"..."

Jiang Zhengge stared at tide Leina for a while, then turned away.

"Let's go," he said softly.

......

Chapter 50 Laplace's Demon (10,000-word update, please vote!) (Four chapters + Five chapters)

Xilena had a biometric system installed, so she opened the door easily.

Upon entering Facility No. 3, a strong smell of disinfectant hits you, and in front of you is a long, silvery-white corridor.

Jiang Zhengge gave Lin Chen and Li Zhanyi a look, then walked ahead with tide Leina, leaving the two of them to bring up the rear.

In this way, if Xileina suddenly encounters a problem, he can ensure that the two of them can escape.

Ke Xileina was not troubled.

Once she put on the Bureau of Investigation uniform, she acted just like a professional investigator, carefully examining every corner of the facility.

She would even hack into terminals and read information from the internal network of Facility 3, rendering Louis useless.

“Ten minutes ago, Facility 3 activated a Level IV crisis mobilization order,” Xileina said softly, looking at the screen. “Oh... Generally speaking, this situation either means that there has been a serious containment breach in the laboratory, or that they are preparing to eliminate witnesses.”

"This is a typical tactic used by the foundation's lackeys," Jiang Zhengge said.

tide Leina glanced at Jiang Zhengge but didn't say anything.

The group continued down the corridor, and as they walked, they passed a glowing advertising board:

The foundation, for humanity's tomorrow.

“The foundation’s lackeys are spouting nice words again,” Jiang Zhengge laughed. “How ridiculous these lackeys are.”

tide Leina also glanced at Jiang Zhengge, her brows furrowing slightly.

Further on, as you round the corner, you see a body in a research robe lying on the ground. The office next to it has been burned by a strong acid, leaving nothing inside.

“The Classic Foundation’s lackey behavior,” Jiang Zhengge sighed. “How can all the foundation’s lackeys be so wicked…”

tide Lena finally couldn't take it anymore.

She glared at Jiang Zhengge with displeasure and shouted:

"Is this never going to end? I've noticed you've been subtly insulting me lately. What's wrong with that? I haven't done anything to you..."

“You haven’t provoked me,” Jiang Zhengge shrugged. “Are you planning to drop a space-based weapon into low Earth orbit to help the idiots at the Foundation find their God?”

Upon hearing Jiang Zhengge's words, tide Leina's deep blue eyes flickered slightly.

She avoided eye contact and said softly:

"Then tell me, what should I do?"

"Leave the foundation, return to the investigation bureau, confess and you will be treated leniently, resist and you will be punished severely, and you will be subject to legal sanctions."

“But this won’t change anything,” Xileina said.

What do you want to change?

tide Lena did not answer.

“There are some things that can’t be said,” she whispered. “If you say them, people will find out.”

"Who knows?" Jiang Zhengge asked, puzzled. "Is there anyone else here?"

Do you know about Laplace's demon?

tide Lena closed her eyes.

"It is a monster that knows the direction of motion of all particles in the universe. Since the essence of all appearances in the three-dimensional world is the result of particle motion, that monster has the ability to predict the future."

"In its eyes, there is no difference between the future and the past."

"So this kind of monster really exists?" Jiang Zhengge raised an eyebrow. "Whether you tell me or not, can't it predict it anyway?"

“But subspace does not belong to the three-dimensional world,” Xileina said softly. “Demigods also do not belong to the three-dimensional world, but exist simultaneously in both three-dimensional space and subspace.”

"Demigods are variables, and also the only variables that can change history. If Laplace's demon exists, then the actions of demigods are the only ones that can be hidden from its eyes."

At this point, tide Leina turned her head and glanced at Lin Chen.
