530: Chapter 123: Search for the Lantern_3 530: Chapter 123: Search for the Lantern_3 “Changye’s… Li Family.”
Gu Shen slowly nodded and said, “Yes.
The antique lamp I’m looking for is the Li Family’s lamp.”
He offered no explanation.
Lu Nanzhi did not press further.
“If it’s just a matter of finding the lamp… that’s not difficult; we just need to follow the Li Family’s approach and spend the money.
With the financial resources of the Five Continents, finding the lamp is not an issue at all.” Lu Nanzhi looked at Gu Shen and said, “Obviously, for such a trivial matter… you contacted in the ‘Conference Room’ for another reason.
You do not wish for things to develop this way.”
Gu Shen laughed with a sense of resignation.
Madam, you are truly worthy…
“You don’t want this matter to attract too much attention?” Lu Nanzhi raised an eyebrow, “But the Li Family’s previous approach has already been quite ostentatious… Many powers across the Five Continents are watching them.
To my knowledge, so have even started searching for information on the antique lamps.
Everyone wants to know, what madness possessed the Li Family Master before his death, were a few lamps worth spending billions to find?”
“These people are wasting their ti; they won’t find the reason.”
Gu Shen shook his head and said, “But if the Five Continents also start their ‘lamp hunt,’ then I’m afraid a third party will also enter the waters.”
“Indeed…”
The Madam fell into contemplation.
“Actually, these lamps, even if they are worthless scrap tal, would an nothing to others even if they found them.” Gu Shen said calmly, “Those not in the ga are probably just observing from the sidelines, understanding this point… But if the Li Family shows too much interest, or if other Extraordinary Forces enter the fray, then the search for the lamps will beco complicated.”
“What do you plan to do?” The Madam rubbed her temples, feeling a bit of a headache, “As far as I know… the Li Family has invested heavily in this matter, their people spread across the entire Five Continents.
Nobody knows which of the antiques they bought are ‘sealed items’ and which are forgeries.
To accurately find such a lamp, it’s inevitable that the search will need to be broadened.
And making noise is inevitably going to be discovered.”
“I want to try mobilizing the strength of the Ancient Literature Society.” Gu Shen tapped his fingers lightly on the desktop and asked, “This isn’t the last hope, but it might be the best choice before the situation worsens…”
Lu Nanzhi imdiately understood Gu Shen’s intention.
The real difficulty lies in how to expand the search efficiently while minimizing the noise and avoiding detection.
In other words… if the Copper Human Lamp that Gu Shen is looking for is a treasure, then the biggest trouble is how to search for this treasure covertly right under everyone’s eyes.
The existence of the Ancient Literature Society perfectly fills this gap.
Every seat holder in the ‘Conference Room’ is equivalent to an ‘eye’ spread out in a corner of the Five Continents.
If the Ancient Literature Society mobilizes to search for the ‘Copper Human Lamp,’ then the efficiency and speed will be much faster than the Li Family’s widespread approach!
“What does that ‘Copper Human Lamp’… actually represent?”
Lu Nanzhi was sowhat curious.
At this point, there wasn’t much left to hide.
“The ‘Conference Room’ is able to maintain stability because we have the highest authority from the deep water area to assist us, which is the ‘Source Code’.
In other words, she is ‘Deep Sea’…”
Gu Shen said slowly, “And now, the search for this ‘Copper Human Lamp’ ans that there’s a chance for the ‘Source Code’ to be born into the real world.
That is to say… perhaps one day in the future, she will break through the barrier between the Spirit and the physical world and beco a living Divine Miracle.”
“…???”
Lu Nanzhi asked subconsciously.
She could never have imagined that it would involve such a matter.
Her expression was filled with shock, amazent, and disbelief.
The birth of the ‘Source Code’?
“How… how is that possible?”
“In fact, I can hardly believe it myself…” Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and said, “But who can say what can happen in the extraordinary world?
From the current situation, if we gather the last lamp, the probability that she will co into the physical world is greater than fifty percent.”
The Madam had regained her composure.
In fact, her heart was still full of shock.
This unbelievable Divine Miracle… even if there was only a one in a ten thousand chance, it was a huge gamble that was worth the try.
More than fifty percent.
This was simply…
“The ‘Source Code’ and ‘Key’ are the final safeguards for the life of every mber of the Ancient Literature Society…” Gu Shen said earnestly, “That’s why I have this idea… If it fails, I have a backup plan.”
That was to join forces with the Madam to activate the ‘Money Power,’ causing the situation to beco chaotic.
Let’s all throw money into the mix.
The Li Family stops the ‘lamp search’ project, Five Continents restarts… the remaining Extraordinary Forces, if they wish to join the battlefield, then they might as well search for the lamp together, eventually paying a higher price.
But the last lamp will definitely be found!
“I need to take so ti… If there’s no rush, I’ll give you an answer later.” Lu Nanzhi’s expression was complex, as she struggled to process the news that the Source Code might possibly be born, a notion that shattered her perception.
“No problem.”
Gu Shen watched as the Madam disconnected from the link.
He sat alone at the far end of the conference room’s long table, silently contemplating his next moves…
The Li Family stops the ‘lamp search’.
But it’s fine… both the Ancient Literature Society and Five Continents are viable contingency plans.
The only trouble would be how to rally the mbers of the Ancient Literature Society, to mobilize their power in search of this final lamp…
However, just as this plan was beginning to take shape after only ten minutes of contemplation.
The ticulous steps had not yet been fully clarified.
A voice resonated in Gu Shen’s mind.
It was Chu Ling’s voice.
“Just now…”
“I had a dream again.”
Gu Shen was taken aback.
He quickly disconnected from the ‘Conference Room’ and entered the empty 001 carriage.
Chu Ling, rubbing her temples with difficulty, woke from the long dream.
She slowly said, “I saw a city… an old city… I also saw many n draped in white linen robes, wearing strange badges on their bodies.”
…
