Then, the system further deciphered the formula information displayed in the scene that Wang Chong had just seen, and then transcribed it into Wang Chong's mind.
Wang Chong closed his eyes and, using his magical perception abilities, began to carefully comprehend this information.
Chapter 359: The Serious Bunny
After sensing the formula for a while, Wang Chong finally opened his eyes and slowly said:
"I see. It can accelerate the operation of Originium to a certain extent... But if we do the opposite, it can interfere with the information transmission in Originium, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it can cause Originium to overload and be interrupted."
"It can be said that this formula is basically one of the underlying logics of Originium. In that case, even if Precythia controls all the Originium, he still has a fatal weakness...emmmm, is this a backdoor left by the female doctor for future generations?"
Recalling the scene just now, Wang Chong never thought it was a coincidence that such crucial information was so readily stuffed into the internalized cosmic information singularity.
Wang Chong then verified the formula. When he used the power of the Demon King and began to operate according to the formula, he noticed that the source stone energy around him was showing an extremely "excited" state.
"Heh, that's really strange. Can something like energy actually have emotions?"
Wang Chong had to admire the technological level of the previous civilization; the Originium they created indeed had many interesting characteristics.
Then, Wang Chong began to reverse the formula according to his conjecture. Soon, the Originium, which was originally very excited, began to stir. Then, as if out of control, the black energy lines broke into several segments and dissipated into particles in the air.
"What a perfect formula! The female PhD is indeed a genius in scientific research. Using her as a commander is a waste of her talent."
Wang Chong shook his head. Everyone has their own expertise; professionals should do what they're good at. However, thinking about the female PhD student's suspicious attack on Theresa, he felt relieved. For the survival of the entire civilization, everyone was powerless, already slaves to their own creations.
The female doctor was like this, and so was Priscilla. They had both become complete slaves to Project Originium. Expecting them to regurgitate the various technologies within their minds without breaking the limiters in their brains was essentially absurd.
"Alright, we've gained enough now, and we've spent enough time in this internalized universe. It's time to head back."
Wang Chong slowly said:
"However, before going back, I need to make sure I explain things to Precys, Theresa, and Amiya."
As he spoke, Wang Chong returned to the pure white space, where he saw the three people who had washed themselves clean and changed into clean clothes. They had been waiting for him silently in the space for a long time.
Upon seeing his arrival, Precys smiled and said, "It seems that Master has already gone to the depths of the Originium-internalized universe and obtained some remarkable gains."
"You really know everything about the situation. I'm starting to suspect that your submissive attitude is just a way of deliberately fooling me."
Hearing Precys's words, Wang Chong was not surprised, and asked in a half-joking, half-probing tone.
“The fact that the real ‘me’ hasn’t awakened is enough to prove my loyalty. Besides, I don’t know exactly what you’ve gained. I simply wish my master all the best in his endeavors,” Precys said gently.
"Hehe, then I'll gladly accept your blessing." Wang Chong chuckled, no longer paying attention to Precys's words, and instead focusing his gaze on Theresa and Amiya.
Finally, Wang Chong fixed his gaze on Theresa and asked:
"Theresia, you've calmed down completely now. So, are your previous promises still valid?"
"Of course, if you don't want to admit it, you can leave now without looking back. I won't stop you, Theresa."
After listening to Wang Chong's words, Theresa simply shook her head, and then said:
"I either won't agree at all, or if I do, I'll definitely do it. I'm willing to give my whole heart and soul to become your woman, so I will never go back on my word." (The rest of the text appears to be nonsensical and unrelated to the initial statement.)
As she spoke, Theresa took another step forward. Her expression was very calm, but deep in her eyes was a hidden shyness. Then she said:
"Or perhaps you need me to give you another kiss to prove it, darling?"
Seeing Theresa's expression, Wang Chong suppressed the urge to smile, but alas, he failed. He simply laughed and said, "Alright, I wouldn't mind if you kissed me again."
"kiss~"
As soon as Wang Chong finished speaking, Theresa stood on tiptoe and kissed Wang Chong's lips.
"Huh?"
At this moment, still immersed in her previous chaotic behavior, feeling somewhat tormented and disappointed, the rabbit, upon hearing the sound of a kiss, seemed to react instinctively, jumping up and backing away, saying as she retreated:
"No! No! I never want to watch that kind of thing again!"
This caused the two who were just about to immerse themselves in the kiss to snap out of their reverie, and they each looked at the panicked Amiya with different expressions.
Theresa felt ashamed and regretful. She hadn't fully protected Amiya, and she knew Amiya's future fate. Therefore, all she could do was try her best to win the favor of the man before her, hoping he would be gentler with Amiya.
Wang Chong wore a helpless expression, seemingly realizing he had been a bit too hasty in dealing with Amiya. However, Wang Chong was already used to handling such situations, and he simply shouted:
"Alright, Amiya, you've already suppressed your instincts. For a long time to come, you don't need to worry about what I did with Theresa affecting you."
The voice carried a hint of magic, resonating with Amiya's mind and temporarily calming her. After being soothed by Wang Chong's shout, Amiya caught her breath a few times before cautiously asking:
"real or fake?"
"Of course it's true. You've been looking at me for so long, did you experience any adverse reactions? And I just kissed Theresa. If you saw that, wouldn't you feel a change if you had a reaction? Calm down and feel your body."
Wang Chong explained.
After Wang Chong's explanation, Amiya carefully examined her current situation and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she looked up and asked somewhat uncertainly:
"So, Your Highness Theresa... you really have..."
“This is the choice I made, Amiya… not just because of my physical condition… but also because I was willing to take the risk and believe that he could help me escape the tragic fate of my people.”
Theresa said with a slightly bitter expression:
"You must look down on me now, right? I told you those things not long ago. And now, I'm standing by his side."
"No... Your Highness. Since this is something you're willing to admit now that you've calmed down, you must have a reason to do so that your teacher is trustworthy."
Amiya shook her head, then looked at Wang Chong and said:
"Like me... Although my teacher did lie to me about many things, I also have some reasons to continue to trust him. Even after all that happened, I still trust him."
"Upon careful review, many of those so-called deceptions were simply the result of my preconceived notions. And these things do not negate the fact that the teacher did indeed change the situation of the infected people."
"Perhaps, as Your Highness explained before, my teacher does have ambitions... but at least the path he is currently taking is to liberate those suffering people. At least he has always been doing this, and I have witnessed it and heard countless people say it."
After speaking, Amiya became serious. She turned to Wang Chong with a very earnest expression and said:
"But it's undeniable, teacher, that you have a lot of problems with your private morality, especially in your treatment of women. No wonder Huang would call you a 'pervert.' At the time, I didn't really believe it and thought you were in the honeymoon phase, so I didn't pay attention."
"Huang actually wrote you a letter with all this stuff?" Upon hearing this, Wang Chong's face darkened. It seemed that a certain big cat was going to suffer after Wang Chong returned.
"Uh... I think I accidentally let something slip." Amiya realized her mistake, tapped her head twice, and sighed, "My mind is in such a mess right now. The amount of information that happened today is more than I've experienced in the past year or two."
Chapter 360: The Underlying Logic of This Land
Seeing Amiya clutching her head in pain, Wang Chong, who had been wearing a sullen expression, couldn't help but chuckle. Upon seeing Wang Chong laugh, Amiya became very serious and said...
"Don't laugh, teacher. I'm telling you this very seriously."
"To be honest, I can tolerate personal character issues, because I've seen quite a few people with bad character who are fine on matters of principle; similarly, I've also met some people whose character is impeccable, like a saint, but who have gone astray and gone to extremes."
"Therefore, teacher, I can also tolerate your bad character... But to be honest, my tolerance may not be worth mentioning in your eyes... After all, you are so powerful... so powerful that you can almost single-handedly build a country. Your power can disregard the will of individuals or even groups."
Amiya sighed and said:
"There are some things I do understand. An overly idealistic country or structure, if it does not have a strong backing in the early stages, is like a tender sprout growing in the dead of winter; it may be buried by heavy snow if you are not careful."
"You are worlds apart in strength from those commoners, and even from me and His Highness, yet you still patiently teach those commoners and infected how to fight."
"We have been protecting them and teaching them lessons at the lowest possible cost, making them stronger as they experience the growing pains and the threat of death."
“If others might use those infected to achieve ulterior motives, I might be skeptical. But you are different, teacher... because with your power, it would be too easy for you to seize this country; you wouldn't need such a roundabout and unpredictable method.”
"That's why I believe that you, Teacher, truly want to do something for those below you. Whether it's on a whim or, like Princess Theresa, to fulfill a promise to others..."
"In short, you have indeed successfully changed the situation of the infected...you even managed to save all the civilizations on the continent of Terra. In any case, I want to thank you, teacher."
After speaking, Amiya first bowed, and then followed the salute gesture established by the Reunion Movement to thank Wang Chong.
Wang Chong looked at Amiya, who was bowing and thanking him, and was momentarily surprised. He had considered that Amiya might have an emotional breakdown, that she might question him, and even that Vigus's spell of decadence might be too effective, turning Amiya into a completely submissive rabbit...
But he never expected that Amiya would thank him.
He always felt that Amiya's actions exceeded his expectations, and this wasn't the first or second time.
Even Theresa was somewhat surprised by Amiya's attitude, but after reviewing Amiya's logic, Theresa finally understood and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh to herself:
"I may have been locked up for too long, so I am completely ignorant of the situation outside, to the point that my knowledge and judgment have fallen behind even little Amiya."
"Yes, his strength is so great that there is no one on the entire continent who can rival him. Even if a group of people attack him, it will be meaningless. The defeat of the 12 Demon Kings is a living example."
"If he really wanted to persecute someone, why would he use such a complicated method? If he really wanted to torture someone, who could stop him?"
"On the contrary, as Amiya said, he did not conquer everything with absolute violence. Instead, for him, it was like playing house. He slowly helped those weak people, whom he regarded as ants, to learn how to resist and build their own homes little by little..."
"Like a... capricious god? Unconcealing his likes and dislikes, acting arbitrarily... yet responding to those who are willing to follow and believe in him."
At that moment, Theresa seemed to have found Wang Chong's place, and she instantly realized how she should "get along" with him properly in the future.
"Amiya, sometimes I really can't understand you, you little bunny. Your thoughts are just as complex as some adults. It's quite remarkable that you've managed to manage such a large organization as Rhodes Island so well."
Wang Chong chuckled softly, shook his head slightly, and then said:
"Since you still acknowledge me as your teacher, there are some things I need to tell you. First, do you know why you got involved in this conflict?"
"Huh? Getting involved in this conflict?" Amiya was indeed a little puzzled, then looked directly at Priscilla and couldn't help but ask, "Wasn't it Miss Priscilla who suddenly wanted to get rid of the teacher?"
“That’s not how it is, Miss Amiya,” Precys said with a smile, shaking her head. “It’s because my master forced me to intervene. He’s already near the home medical pod. Well, perhaps you’ll be more familiar with another name: the sarcophagus of Chernobog.”
"Wait? Chernobog? The sarcophagus? Isn't that where the Doctor is? Professor, what's going on here?"
Amiya couldn't help but look at Wang Chong and ask.
"Because I'm here to bring out your doctor, Amiya. As for the reasons, one of them, as Precys said, is to force her to attack me."
Wang Chong slowly said:
“I sensed long ago that the fate of civilizations and species on this land had been unknowingly controlled by some powerful force. This includes the fate of the infected and the fate of the Sarkaz.”
"The reason is that the Originium Project, which the previous civilization advocated, required the entire land to be covered with Originium crystals. The species of Terra became the best medium for the transmission and conversion of Originium."
"The energy of Originium will not disappear; it will always return in other forms. But each time it returns, the amount will be greater than the original amount. The reason for this is that life is absorbed by Originium, forming new Originium and carrying new information."
"In other words, the more infected people there are, and the more homeless they are, the more efficient they are at spreading Originium, and the more beneficial that is to the previous civilization's Originium Project."
"And this is the truth and underlying logic behind the exile of the Infected and the Sarkaz. You are all Demon Lords, the ones who have been most deeply exposed to the power of Originium. Haven't you felt the informational and emotional pollution contained within 'Originium'?"
Upon hearing Wang Chong's words, both Amiya and Theresa, who already knew some things about the previous civilization, were taken aback.
Having witnessed Precys's methods of controlling the Demon King and even personally experienced the feeling of losing control of their own bodies, they immediately understood that what Wang Chong said was true.
"So, in order to solve this problem, you went to the Doctor, hoping to force the mastermind... Miss Precys, to show herself?" Amiya couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, because your doctor was also forced by the Originium Project and manipulated by Originium, which led to the so-called Tower of Babel tragedy. I think Theresa should have no doubt about this."
Wang Chong looked at Theresa and said.
"Yes... that's indeed the case. I finally got in touch with the Doctor, saw through her struggling inner world, and learned the secrets of the previous civilization... so in the end, I personally erased her memories, not only so that she could make good choices in the future, but also to free her from the shackles of a certain Originium Arts."
Theresa nodded and slowly said: "You have a forest, but you're not here..."
"But it is only now that I fully understand that all of this was caused by a plan set up by the wise men of the previous civilization."
"Doctor...has she lost her memory? Then does that mean she doesn't even remember me anymore..."
Amiya was visibly disappointed upon hearing the news.
"So what? Erasing memories doesn't mean they can't be retrieved. Amiya, instead of being sad right now, you should think about the immediate problem," Wang Chong said.
"The current problem? What do you mean?" Amiya asked, puzzled.
“As I just said, finding the Doctor to deal with Precyth is only one reason. The other reason... is that I plan to establish a foothold in Chernobog.”
Afterwards, Wang Chong told Amiya about what had happened in Chernobyl recently.
"Wait... Teacher, are you saying that the reason you came to the south is to incite the people to rebel, and that the decisive battle in Chernobog is about to begin?"
Amiya was clearly shocked by what had happened in Chernobog. She had been wondering why there had been no activity in Chernobog all month, but she hadn't expected the situation in Chernobog to have become so dire...
But Amiya thought about Wang Chong's strength and quickly calmed her anxiety. With her teacher there, she didn't need to worry about the coup failing.
However, Wang Chong seemed to have read Amiya's mind, and said calmly:
“I wouldn’t use the same power I used against Precyth for this kind of thing… If it were just about letting the infected win through violence, I could have done it that easily a long time ago.”
"Just like you said before, I will provide escort, but that's all... Whether you succeed or not depends on yourselves."
"So, Amiya... the fate of Chernobog depends not only on the people of Chernobog, on the Reunion Movement... but also on the performance of Rhodes Island."
Upon hearing Wang Chong's words, Amiya felt a chill run down her spine. She realized that her teacher was not joking with her, so she said, "I understand... but what reason do I have to convince Kal'tsit? After all, this happened so suddenly."
Chapter 361: "Demon King" Theresa
When Amiya asked, Wang Chong replied directly:
“When I first entered the sarcophagus, I triggered a signal from an instrument. I think it was your guardian, Kal'tsit, who must have tampered with it. She should be aware of the accident in Chernobog now. She might be looking for you…”
