I write obituaries for the gods

During the day, the pool floor was completely deserted. Lin Chen stepped out of elevator number 15 and, like an old man taking a stroll, followed the signs to find elevator number 10, the general elevator, and returned to the lobby.

"Ding."

"Oswald, it's time to go to the bathroom," Lin Chen said softly, pressing the earpiece.

Ten minutes later, Lin Chen switched identities with Oswald in the restroom, changed back into his assistant's clothes, and handed the hard drive to Oswald.

Watching Oswald push his cleaning tools away, Lin Chen turned around and walked into the donation venue.

He found a spot in the corner and stood there, looking towards the stage, just in time to see Professor Jürgen walk onto the stage.

Across the hall, Jürgen and Lin Chen exchanged a glance, and the professor's face revealed a faint smile.

“I am Professor Jürgen Eisenberg,” Jürgen said into the microphone. “It is an honor to stand here today… to launch my project.”

......

Chapter 130 Lone Wolf (Second Update)

Under the spotlight, Jürgen stood alone on the podium, facing the vast hall.

He seemed a little awkward, and after saying the first sentence, his gaze became somewhat evasive, as if his long experimental career had long since worn away his spirited side.

Jürgen picked up the thermos, unscrewed the lid, took a sip, and cleared his throat.

He took a deep breath and began to speak:

"As we all know, the reason why Rain Town has become the Rain Capital is not only because it is the landing point of demigods descending to Earth, but also because of another important reason."

"This is the place where reality and subspace are closest. The trigger threshold for anomalous erosion is extremely low, which is very rare on the entire Earth."

"In Yudu, we have conducted a great deal of research on subspace, and the results are rapidly advancing the progress of human civilization. From the medical field to propellantless rockets, human civilization is becoming more and more prosperous due to the development of subspace, and the future is slowly unfolding before us."

"However, amidst the rapid progress of the times, countless forms of suffering that never existed before have also emerged in the shadows. Whether it be those anomalous erosion phenomena or subspace syndromes, the fingertips of civilization are slowly dripping blood..."

"As a visionary, I am honored to be a doctor of our time, dedicating my life to visionary studies and making a small contribution to human civilization."

"I am also honored to be the principal investigator of the foundation's 'Insomnia Cure and Prognosis' project. As a visionary, I will strive to produce results for our time..."

"And for our children."

After Professor Jürgen finished speaking, the entire fundraising event was filled with applause.

Many people present knew about Professor Jürgen's story: he originally enjoyed extremely high treatment at the foundation, but he left the foundation for the sake of the insomnia orphan he had adopted, and took a temporary position at the Bureau of Investigation, simply because it was convenient for him to conduct research related to insomnia there.

When Professor Jürgen stepped down, countless scholars and businessmen rushed up to shake his hand.

“How touching, how remarkable,” an elderly man with gray hair patted Jürgen on the shoulder.

"What you keep in mind will surely come to pass..."

“You are someone we should learn from.” A young scholar wiped his eyes.

"If you need anything, just contact me. I have connections in Super America, and I can arrange anything for you..."

"..."

As he pushed through the crowd, Jürgen smiled stiffly. His calloused, withered hands had been grasped countless times, like golden branches repeatedly used by priests in worship.

Insomnia is a typical rare disease. Because there are so few cases, any research results on it are difficult to recoup the research and development costs.

In other words, it was the Bureau of Investigation that supported Tujurgen's research, a byproduct of his own research, in order to compete with the Foundation in the arms race.

Over the years, Jürgen had grown accustomed to the sarcasm and gossip.

But now, they're patting Jürgen on the shoulder like foxes circling a white wolf.

Jürgen couldn't tell whether the applause was for him or for the "project leader."

They said they were moved by Jürgen's love for Litty.

Why did it take you so long to be moved?

Over the years, he has repeatedly run into obstacles, been turned away time and time again, and been regarded as a fool by those scholars who made a fortune through spectroscopy.

Why are they starting to get emotional now?

Jürgen's expression stiffened even more.

"..."

As the crowd dispersed, Lin Chen quickly spotted Jürgen walking towards him in a daze.

The moment their eyes met, Jürgen's face regained some color, and a soft curve appeared at the corners of his stiff lips.

"Lin, did it go smoothly?" Jürgen leaned close to Lin Chen and asked in a low voice.

“Your speech went very well,” Lin Chen said with a smile, patting Jürgen on the shoulder. “An excellent speech; it seems everyone is happy for you.”

“Perhaps,” Jürgen chuckled. “Heh… It’s been so long since I’ve been to a scene like this; I’m really not used to it.”

Lin Chen looked at Professor Jürgen and quickly understood the expression on his face.

“Professor, it’s all worth it for Litty,” Lin Chen said softly. “You will soon realize your dream.”

“Ah…yes,” Jürgen snapped out of his reverie, “I’m about to realize my dream.”

He rubbed his hands together, then smiled at Lin Chen, a hint of joy finally appearing between his aged brows.

“I have to go, Kobayashi,” Jürgen rolled up his sleeves and glanced at his watch. “It’s time for the plan. If we delay any longer, it will be too late, and I’ll be late.”

"I'll see you off." Lin Chen nodded.

Lin Chen helped the excited old man towards the entrance of the venue and disappeared into the crowd.

......

"All in hand, evacuated."

When Louis's voice came through the earpiece, Jiang Zhengge's lips curled up slightly.

At this moment, Ms. J stood up and said:

"I'm sorry, I just received news that, according to Mr. Z, we do not know Euclid's weakness, so I'm afraid this request cannot be fulfilled for you."

“It’s alright, you still have time to think,” Jiang Zhengge waved his hand. “Then, our investigation will continue.”

Hua Molan and Li Zhanyi also stood up. Behind them, the members of the Armed Forces Department waved to signal a retreat.

At that moment, a bodyguard leaned close to Ms. J and whispered a few words in her ear.

Ms. J frowned slightly, looking at the Bureau of Investigation personnel who were preparing to leave, and said:

"The server room on the 45th floor was hacked. Is this the Bureau of Investigation's sincerity?"

"Invasion?" Hua Molan was somewhat surprised. "We've been negotiating with you here the whole time, how could it be an invasion?"

“Jurgen’s assistant is one of yours.” Ms. J clenched her fist slightly.

"Wasn't he always with the professor?" Jiang Zhengge and Li Zhanyi exchanged a glance. "Weren't your people keeping an eye on him?"

The bodyguard whispered a few more words to Ms. J, and her expression immediately became conflicted.

“As a peace negotiation, I think showing sincerity is the foundation for both sides,” Hua Molan stared at Ms. J. “You’re planning to pin the blame for the data center intrusion on us? I’m not saying this, but isn’t this a bit of a path dependency?”

Ms. J stared at the people from the Investigation Bureau for a while, then finally lowered her head and pointed forcefully to the door.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhengge smiled brightly, hummed a little tune, and led the way toward the door.

"What do you want to eat tonight? How about going out for something nice?" Jiang Zhengge asked Li Zhanyi beside him. "Zhanyi?"

He suddenly noticed that Li Zhanyi's expression was not quite right.

A glint of dark blue flashed in the girl's eyes, and her shoulders trembled.

"What's wrong? Zhanyi."

"No...that's not right..."

Li Zhanyi covered his mouth, the scene of the "prophecy" still flashing in his mind.

She saw...

A violent flash of silver light!

.......

Chapter 131 Divine Wrath (Third Update)

At the entrance of the foundation's headquarters in Xiwang District, a Maybach 62s was parked in the rain.

The rain grew heavier and heavier, lightning cleaved the banks of the Milky Way, and the cascading water roared down, creating ripples on the hard asphalt road.

Lin Chen held up an umbrella and escorted Professor Jürgen all the way to the back seat of the car, opening the car door for him.

After getting into the back seat, Jürgen didn't rush to close the door, but instead turned to look at Lin Chen.

"This departure means we won't see each other for a while!" Jürgen shouted in the pouring rain. "If I could, I would like to stay and thank you properly!"

"It's what we should do!" Lin Chen shouted. "Go, Professor. Zhan Yi and I will take good care of Liti."

“I trust you all very much!” Jürgen smiled. “Alright, sorry, I really am going to miss my flight! We’ll keep in touch online from now on! I hope you won’t mind me video chatting with you every night; I’ll miss Litty a lot!”

"No way!"

Lin Chen and Jürgen waved goodbye, closed the car door for him, and patted the car body.

The Maybach 62s drove towards the curtain of water ahead, stirring up a series of waves, and headed into the distance.

Lin Chen stood by the roadside, watching Professor Jürgen walk away, and let out a deep breath.

The operation went more smoothly than he had expected; apart from the bronze mask that appeared to be from a native of Raintown, he encountered no obstacles.

Everything went too smoothly.

But this smooth sailing... made Lin Chen feel a little strange.

"Louis, are those data confirmed to be true?" Lin Chen pressed the earpiece.

“It has been verified repeatedly, it can’t be fake,” Louis’s voice came through. “Don’t worry.”

"Okay." Lin Chen let out a soft breath.

"Has Professor Jürgen left?"

“He’s gone,” Lin Chen said. “He’ll be safe once he leaves the country.”

"Okay, wait at the door for a while. The director and the others will be down soon. You can all take the car back together."

"receive."

Lin Chen took out his phone, wanting to ask Zhan Yi and the others how things were going.

But as soon as he unlocked his screen, he saw two words from Zhanyi:

"Run!"

"boom!!!!!!"

The explosion ripped through the rain like thunder, as if a bolt of lightning had struck the ground.

Lin Chen suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance, just in time to witness the Maybach being torn to pieces amidst a flash of silver light and a roar!

Lin Chen was very familiar with that silver light!

That's Euclid's power!

"Professor Jürgen!"

Lin Chen screamed and ran forward, but before he had taken more than a few steps, an explosion came from behind him—

"boom!!!!!!!!"

This time, the commotion was several times greater than before, like countless lightning bolts exploding at the same time, and the sound pressure almost tore Lin Chen's eardrums apart.

The violent shockwave knocked Lin Chen to the ground. In a daze, he raised his head, his blurry eyes reflecting a scene that seemed like the end of the world:

A beam of silver light, like a sword pierced diagonally into the building, entered from the upper floors and exited from the lower floors.

The silver light surged, and a chain of silver lightning repeatedly exploded, tearing the building to shreds!

Amidst the flashing silver lightning, a figure hovered in the sky, beneath the rain curtain—

Euclid!

His silver armor reflected the flashing lightning, and his mercury-like cloak billowed in the air, proclaiming his sovereignty over the place he was in!

"Rumble..."
