Chapter 362 I've never seen such an outrageous request.
Chapter 362 I've never seen such an outrageous request.
Everyone's eyes were glued to the big screen.
The text bubble that read "Can you come over?" remained alone on the right side of the dialog box.
Ten seconds... half a minute... one minute.
The other party's status showed "typing," fluctuating back and forth, but no new messages popped up.
Professor Pan Yu crossed her arms, her gaze sharp.
"She hesitated. This simple question may have touched a nerve in her logic."
"Maybe she can't come at all, or maybe she's not even a real entity."
Li Guoan nodded and ordered in a deep voice, "Xiao Chen, continue to apply pressure."
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen You typed in the input without any expression.
[Chen You: Why aren't you saying anything? Didn't you just say you wanted to put a burlap sack over it?]
[Chen You: You don't even have the guts to meet them? Your position as a partner in the interstellar conglomerate is rather worthless.]
Message sent.
This time, the other party replied instantly.
[Invincible Beauty: Oh dear, brother, you're so mean! I'm currently in a high-dimensional quantum entanglement state. Physical intervention would cause the collapse of your universe! [Feeling wronged][Feeling wronged]]
[Invincible Beauty: Let's communicate on a spiritual level first! Don't you know that distance makes the heart grow fonder?]
Pan Yu gave a cold laugh.
She remained silent for a long time, then quickly replied with an excuse. She was lying, or rather, she was covering up some kind of helplessness.
Pan Yu turned to look at the crowd and said, "She is trying to scare us with the grand concept of cosmic collapse, which just shows that she is currently unable to interfere with the real world."
"Continue to peel back her disguise."
Chen You sighed inwardly.
The experts are indeed experts; their analysis of the tactics is even more professional than that of a "pig butchering scam."
[Chen You: How can we talk about love if we don't meet in person? You won't even post a makeup-free photo without any filters or editing. Why should I believe you?]
[Invincible Beauty: You actually doubt my looks?! [Angry]]
[Invincible Beauty: Photos are nothing! If you're willing, I can transfer my spiritual imprint to you! But before that, brother, you have to show some sincerity first.]
Chen You raised an eyebrow and looked at Li Guoan.
The fox's tail is finally about to be revealed.
[Chen You: What sincerity? I have no money, but you can take my life.]
[Invincible Beauty: Talking about money hurts feelings! I'm just really interested in your skills.]
[Invincible Beauty: The energy trajectory of your sword strike is so unique; it doesn't belong to any other cultivation system.]
[Invincible Beauty: Can you send me that data... no, I mean, can you send me the operational route of that cultivation technique? [Starry eyes][Starry eyes]]
These lines of text appeared on the big screen, and the conference room fell silent instantly.
Li Guoan suddenly stood up, placed his hands on the table, and his eyes became extremely dangerous.
Academician Qian Zhonghua gasped and slammed his thermos down on the table.
"The true intentions are revealed when the map is unrolled." Pan Yu pushed up his glasses, his tone grave.
"It seems her ultimate goal is our Chinese cultivation system."
Sun Feng quickly pulled up the previous energy analysis model: "Director Li, this doesn't make sense either."
"The Origin Realm can simulate a cultivation system, and this beautiful girl clearly possesses extremely high authority within it. Why is she asking this?"
Zhang Yunhai, who had been silent all along, spoke up: "No, the Origin Realm awakened Xiao Chen's own power through the bridge of Chinese currency. Perhaps the Origin Realm only has a superficial understanding of cultivation."
"Or rather, they only know its form, but not its principle."
Chen You leaned back in his chair, looking at the emoticons on the screen, and felt a sense of absurdity.
A being that appears to be a higher-dimensional being is actually using similes and emoticons to try and trick him into revealing his cultivation secrets.
This world is simply magical.
"Professor Pan, what's the news?" Chen You turned to ask Pan Yu.
After a moment's thought, Pan Yu decisively said, "Reject her, but leave room for maneuver. Test how much she desires this system."
Chen You did as instructed.
[Chen You: This is a family craft, passed down only within the family. You want to learn it? Unless you marry into the family.]
After the message was sent, the "typing" indicator on the other end flashed for a full three minutes.
Everyone held their breath, awaiting the thunderous wrath of the higher-dimensional being.
Ding.
A new message notification sounded.
[Invincible beautiful girl: Then I won't be your wife, can I be your daughter instead? Daddy, teach me! [rolling around][rolling around]]
"puff--"
Sun Feng, who was drinking water, sprayed a mouthful of water directly onto the screen.
Academician Qian Zhonghua's eyes widened, and his beard trembled.
Li Guoan's lips twitched, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Chen You felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at the crisp "Dad" on the screen.
This higher-dimensional being would even abandon the most basic sense of shame in order to obtain the cultivation technique?
"Professor Pan, this... this is also considered a negotiation strategy of a high-IQ entity?" Chen You pointed at the screen, his tone strained.
Pan Yu's expression also began to falter. She coughed twice, forcing herself to remain calm.
"From a sociological perspective, their moral values are completely different from those of humans."
"In order to obtain information, she can simulate any social and ethical relationship without any psychological burden."
"This precisely proves that the allure of the cultivation system to her was fatal."
Chen You curled his lip.
To make it sound so mysterious, isn't he just a shameless online beggar?
[Chen You: If you send me another harassing message like this, I'll block you immediately.]
The other party was clearly angered by Chen You's unyielding attitude.
The light on the glass plate began to flicker, and the color of the lettering changed from pink to a glaring scarlet.
[Invincible Beauty: How can you be so ungrateful! I, the young lady, rule over billions of stars; it's your honor to have taken a liking to your cultivation technique!]
[Invincible Beautiful Girl: That energy system clearly has extremely high compatibility, so why can't I find any simulable objects in the Source Realm database?]
[Invincible Beauty: Hand over the underlying code now! Or I'll ban your account!]
"Director Li, she mentioned the Origin Realm Database and the title." Chen You turned to look at Li Guoan.
"Does this mean she is the system's will behind the Source Realm, or some management AI with the highest authority?"
Li Guoan's expression was stern: "A system without human emotions, yet desperately trying to imitate human behavior patterns."
"Xiao Chen, keep her hanging on, and absolutely do not reveal any substantial information about spiritual energy or cultivation techniques."
Chen You nodded, tapping his fingers lightly on the glass plate.
[Chen You: Guess.]
It consists of only two words, yet it is filled with extreme sarcasm.
The other side fell silent again.
This silence lasted longer than any before.
The red light on the glass plate flickered, indicating that the other party was conducting extremely large-scale data calculations and logical deductions.
The experts in the conference room were on high alert.
Five minutes later.
The red light on the glass plate suddenly subsided, returning to its original harmless pink color.
[Invincible Beauty: Brother, I really want to date you.]
[Invincible Beauty: I've discovered that your unique energy system contains a very advanced data interaction protocol.]
Chen You had a bad feeling, vaguely sensing that what the other party was about to say was going to be very outrageous.
[Chen You: What agreement?]
[Invincible Beautiful Girl: Dual Cultivation.]
