The video continued playing. After destroying the laboratory where he had been held, She Li did not rush to leave, because he had not sensed any surge of Transcendent power.
Instead, he fixed his gaze on the room's broadcast system.
"Who are you people? Release His Majesty at once, or Lord Sam will not let you off.
And Melos—where is she? Why hasn't she appeared? There's no way you could have captured her."
Though She Li was questioning them, the shadow beneath his feet was stretching toward the gap outside. Clearly, he had long prepared to escape.
At that moment, another burst of discussion came from outside the screen.
"His Majesty? He actually called someone His Majesty? What an ancient form of address! Hurry and check the historical records, especially that Lord Sam he mentioned. See whether there are any records of them in history."
"Not just that—there's also Melos. From his tone, those people should have been together. Under the effects of the interference, more people may appear, and they are very likely still alive, just like him."
"Unbelievable! We finally proved the Time Flow Loop! Team Leader Chen, this moment will go down in history. You will become a sage like the great luminaries of the past."
"No. Perhaps we can bring those sages back and hear what they think of this era."
Then a voice Chen Cheng knew all too well rang out.
"Alright, there is no need to continue verifying the test subject's intelligence. Contain the test subject. I need to write an academic report that will shake the entire world."
The instant that familiar voice fell silent, She Li's body on the screen suddenly trembled. Clearly, they had electrified the entire room, intending to shock him unconscious.
But She Li's trembling lasted only a moment.
