Qi Mo is indeed imrsed in countless lines of code.
It’s just that he’s not researching so experint... but rather having a conversation with an entity from another world.
"I have successfully boarded the ship. Can you now tell what your next step is?"
The mainfra that Qi Mo insists on taking care of, even at the cost of getting drenched, is precisely the one that [Source Code] has finished infiltrating. At this mont, Chu Ling is conducting an unknown secret communication through the connection in the closed mariti zone.
"Besides raising the ’Divine Infant,’ you have another mission—"
Chu Ling’s reply appears as code on the link screen.
"Research the ’Solar Flares’ on the survivors."
Qi Mo’s expression becos serious.
Information about this thing called "Solar Flares" is sothing he only learned after boarding the ship.
[Source Code] didn’t elaborate much, only instructing Qi Mo to rember to inform the Sincere Heart Association about the mission; refugees might arrive at the Lingxi Zone before the countdown ends, and they must be picked up.
Qi Mo earnestly asks: "Pardon , what exactly do you an by ’Solar Flares’? Why research them?"
"The West Continent Light Church is researching the power leading to ’immortality,’" Chu Ling explains. "’Solar Flares’ might be related to this research... I can’t provide more intelligence for now."
Qi Mo wants to say more.
At this mont, the boat shakes.
"Boom rumble..."
This is the sound of the Source Energy Boat taking off. With the countdown ending, it has abandoned its last stronghold and chosen to set sail back.
anwhile, Chen i opens the door and enters.
"Mr. Qi Mo, we finally found only two survivors in the Lingxi Zone. But the good news is, both survivors have been brought back. Do you want to start the experint now?"
"Alright, just a mont."
Qi Mo rises to leave, instinctively glancing at the screen.
The code has ceased to flicker, [Source Code] has disconnected.
After Chen i leaves.
Qi Mo imdiately lowers his voice to ask: "Miss Chu Ling? Are you still there?"
"Buzz—"
In the quiet lounge, there’s a faint ringing. The code on the screen resus its flow, streaming across multiple screens. There are scrolling subtitle indicators and electronic albums in the lounge of the Source Energy Boat, all new-generation instrunts linked to the [Deep Sea] network, which are unheard of by Qi Mo, who lived in the Sangzhou Cave for twenty years.
Upon boarding this Source Energy Boat, he noticed these changes.
Twenty years away from the mundane world.
The outside world has made groundbreaking technological advancents.
Even though he has been engaged in research continuously, he needs so ti to adapt... At this mont, everywhere his gaze lands, all instrunts capable of scrolling subtitles are flowing with a string of code.
This is Chu Ling’s explanation for her sudden disappearance.
And her response to Qi Mo.
"I am everywhere."
...
...
"Source Energy Boat No.1, successfully airborne."
"No.2... successful."
Fisher fixes his gaze on the main control screen. The operation so far is very smooth, without any unexpected incidents of Law Enforcers being left outside the Source Energy Boats. The only remaining task is to leave the Sangzhou Cave.
Thick mountain ash obscures the vision.
The fierce wind of the Ice Sea drags and sweeps it along.
He can’t see anything, only the occasional flashes of thick lightning in the dark Heavenly Curtain.
"Trust Bai Xiu."
The control door of the main ship opens automatically, and Mu Wanqiu in red armor walks in, removes her helt’s visor, and exhales deeply: "Follow the lightning. His [Thunder Realm Walker] will guide us."
The operculums on Living Fish’s cheeks open and close like blades.
He softly asks: "How is Bai Xiu planning to board the ship?"
"..."
Mu Wanqiu silently shakes her head, "I don’t know, but a person like him always has a way."
Fisher chuckles softly.
"If that’s the case... I won’t be polite with him then."
After squinting and pondering for several seconds, Fisher pushes the control lever to the limit. The main ship suddenly accelerates, crashing toward the end of the Thunder Sea. The sound of cutting through the wind strikes the shield, exploding with a piercing roar that is audible even inside the red silver-encrusted cockpit.
As the main ship accelerates, the remaining nine Source Energy Boats imdiately follow.
Following his intuition, Fisher looks towards the far end of the Thunder Sea, where there is a humanoid God ford entirely by Thunder Light, speeding rapidly.
The speed at which thunder appears in the Thunder Sea increases.
This indicates that the [Thunder Realm Walker] can keep up with the speed of the Source Energy Boats.
"Good..."
Fisher doesn’t hide his disdain: "This damn place, I don’t want to stay a second longer."
Fish species have a natural warning for the ocean.
Upon arriving in this zone, he imdiately feels intense discomfort.
"Once you pull these people out of the Sangzhou Cave, your task is complete."
Mu Wanqiu calmly says: "But don’t rush to leave the Southern Continent after the mission ends. Hover over the coastal airspace and wait for a bit. I need to borrow the micro boat carried by the main ship."
"You want to borrow the micro boat?"
Fisher is taken aback, imdiately frowning: "What do you want to use that thing for? Do you want to co back?"
"...Yes."
Mu Wanqiu gently replies: "There’s soone still not gone."
"You’ve got to be kidding."
Fisher replies irritably: "Wasn’t it agreed beforehand? Regardless of who they are, anyone who can’t board the ship is to be abandoned. Look back, the Sangzhou Cave is about to explode!"
