Yuan Wuwei put it rather dramatically, but that was the situation.
Long Qi agreed for the most part, though he had his own thoughts. "Boss Ronan has been releasing information all along, and today's explanation was remarkably candid. But I think most of his attention is still on the Fog Maze right now."
The mention of the Fog Maze immediately caught Li Taisheng's interest. "What makes you say that?"
Deng Chun pricked up his ears too.
With Hundun's commissioned-training version possessing and enhancing him, Deng Chun's core perception and understanding rested largely on the complex links between the Hundred Peaks Monarch's Blocks and the Fog Maze.
If he wanted to prove his worth in the future, this was where he would have to start.
Long Qi had clearly given the matter considerable thought.
"Remember how Boss Ronan said that most problems on Earth today have a counterpart in there? I think he meant that the Fog Maze is a key to solving—or at least explaining—Earth's complex problems. I've been guarding the chessboard these past few days, and I get the sense that the people at the Lakeside Hotel have pretty much reached a consensus on that.
"But the truth is, most people are completely in the dark about the Fog Maze. They don't even understand the basics, and that includes quite a few Transcendental Species.
"So even if Boss Ronan is determined to tell us something, people will know what he's saying without understanding why. Or rather, many will still have doubts about what he says. Seeing is believing, after all.
"That makes Boss Ronan's immediate priority clear: let the people interested in the background and the truth see what the Fog Maze actually is, what's hidden inside it, where it came from, and how it changes..."
