Professor Bai spoke with complete candor, but Mr. Su was deeply shaken by what he heard.
Because of the gulf between their fields, he did not understand everything Professor Bai had said. In particular, one of Professor Bai's greatest flaws was that he could make things that were already difficult to understand even harder to understand.
For example, Mr. Su had no idea how Professor Bai could remain so determined to carry out this plan after foreseeing that something would go wrong...
But their duties were different, and each had his own responsibilities. The only thing Mr. Su could decide now was whether to believe him or not...
Of course he would choose to believe him!
He had followed Professor Bai astray for so long, and they had already saved half the world. Was he really going to turn back now?
The second phase of the Heavenly Kingdom Plan was launched all the same.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone in the base and the Crimson Moon in the sky, Kid lightly stepped into the Midnight Court.
The next moment, Professor Bai took a deep breath and walked to the small energy matrices beside the Midnight Court. Under the anxious and uneasy gazes of the surrounding researchers and Blue Harbor's decision-makers, he focused for a long while before personally pulling down the switch.
"Bzzzt..."
Huge electrical snakes suddenly began crawling across the Midnight Court.
The Midnight Court, which looked like a real building with heavy walls and even moss growing on them, suddenly began to change.
Its black walls and solid, gloomy foundations began to lose their reality.
They flickered unsteadily like phantoms, as though they might disappear at any moment.
At that same moment, the clinking of chains began to ring out from within the Midnight Court.
