Chapter 28
"Xiao Zhang, what do you mean, it's supposed to be unscientific!"
"Yes, Xiao Zhang, what do you mean by that!"
The man who spoke looked to be in his thirties, and in the outside world, he would have counted as a leading authority among the younger generation of the medical profession.
But here, at this moment, he could only be called Xiao Zhang, not just because of these elders' ages, but also because of their contributions to medicine.
Seeing everyone turn toward him, Professor Zhang hurriedly stood and said:
"What I mean is, that world itself is unscientific, and he transmigrated there. Since the world isn't scientific to begin with, why do we have to approach his condition from a scientific perspective!"
"You mean... this isn't an illness!"
"Yes, it's very possible this isn't an illness, but some kind of supernatural ability! Otherwise, something like this could never happen!
"After all, you've all practiced medicine for so many years, but I doubt any of you have ever heard of an illness that makes a patient feel unbearable discomfort throughout his body within such a short time, and even makes him want to kill himself!
"Even certain specially developed poisons could never achieve this effect. At most, they would make the physical pain unbearable, driving him to seek release through suicide.
"But that effect is actually more like torture. It's nothing like what's happening to this streamer. According to him, he feels genuine self-reproach deep in his heart..."
Professor Zhang talked and gestured to the elderly professors for a long while. When none of them objected, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I understand what Xiao Zhang means, but what do you think we should do about the current situation?"
Professor Zhang froze at that question, then fell silent.
That was right. Ultimately, what he had said about the streamer's condition was only speculation. What mattered most was coming up with a solution!
But what were they supposed to do now!
Leaving aside whether his guess was correct, even if it was, how were they supposed to solve this problem?
After a stretch of silence and hesitation, Professor Zhang finally ventured, "How about we let someone from the Taoist Association take a look?"
After a moment of silence, one of the elders said, "I think we can report this to the higher-ups, but the most important thing right now is to tell that streamer about this.
"Although we don't know the cause or what exactly happened, perhaps once you tell him, that Jackfruit fellow might think of a solution himself."
Professor Zhang did not bother correcting the old professor that the man was called Big Pineapple, not Jackfruit. He simply said, "All right, I'll send a bullet comment right away."
[Big Pineapple, I'm a national professor of medicine. After discussing this with several senior professors just now, we believe your condition very likely isn't an illness, but a supernatural phenomenon similar to your transmigration. We don't know whether there's magic or spells or anything like that over there, so you have to find the cause yourself!]
As soon as this bullet comment appeared, the flood of comments in the livestream, which had been focused on what exactly was wrong with Big Pineapple's body, paused briefly.
Then they began frantically copying the comment, hoping Big Pineapple, who was now rolling on the ground in pain, would see it.
And even more people's eyes lit up after reading it.
[Supernatural]
[Spells]
[Magic]
The impact these three terms had on this ordinary world was anything but small.
Besides, the person who had claimed to have transmigrated there before had said that gods existed in that world. Gods had already appeared, along with mosquitoes bigger than houses.
Now that supernatural incidents had appeared too, could their world have things like cultivation techniques!
If it did...
For a time, although everyone was spamming the chat, hoping Big Pineapple would see the comment and hoping he would not die,
Whether they truly wanted him to survive or were hoping for something else was hard to say.
With five or six Asura Clan members supporting him, Big Pineapple struggled to his feet. Countless bullet comments flashed before his eyes, but he did not look at them at all, nor did he open his eyes.
At the same time, two trails of bloody tears streamed from the corners of his eyes. The sight left the livestream's viewers on tenterhooks.
Was Big Pineapple about to croak just like that!
The next moment, Big Pineapple abruptly vanished from the livestream, replaced by fragmented sequences of black-and-white images.
[Wh-what is this?]
[Did Brother Pineapple croak?]
[Son, son, how are you? It's your dad, don't scare me...]
[Brother Pineapple, are you still alive!!!]
[Brother Pineapple...]
But no matter how the comments flooded the livestream, Big Pineapple, who would normally speak up and tell them to stop spamming after just a little while, gave no response whatsoever.
At that moment, everyone watching the livestream felt their hearts clench. They had no idea what was happening before their eyes.
Much less how Big Pineapple was doing now.
As the black-and-white images gradually cleared, a flourishing world of incredibly advanced technology, filled with towering buildings, appeared before every viewer.
But they had never seen either this world's architectural style or its writing before.
Figures with a pair of bull horns and three eyes moved constantly through the streets and alleys.
Because the footage was black and white, they could not make out any other colors.
[Wh-what is this?]
[Where have we been dumped now?]
[Brother Pineapple hasn't transmigrated again, has he!]
[Brother Pineapple, answer us! Are you still alive!]
Ordinary viewers were still spamming the chat, but the researchers working for the higher-ups now wore extremely grave expressions.
A white-haired elder looked at the footage and said, "That transmigrator said the previous civilization's technology was incredibly advanced. Could this... be that previous civilization!"
"Why do buildings in this style look like a bird's nest to me?"
"No, or rather, this looks more like a fortress!"
"Could this be something the previous civilization left behind! If so, their technology was probably far beyond our imagination."
Of course, the researchers were not the only ones who noticed this. Some quicker-witted viewers also realized it and posted the possibility in the livestream.
[This might be the previous civilization that transmigrator visited. These might be the ruins of their civilization!]
[Holy shit!!!]
[What the fuck!!!]
[Ruins of the previous civilization!]
[You're fucking telling me these are ruins!]
[H-how did they pull this off! Their technology is pretty damn awesome!]
[They're showing everyone on Earth records of their civilization??? Are they trying to pass down their civilization's history this way?]
Just as everyone in the livestream was swearing and marveling, the scene abruptly shifted.
In the next second, the fortress once filled with towering buildings became a field of ruins.
[Wh-what's going on?]
[Is this what their civilization looked like after it was destroyed?]
[Are you an idiot, person above? If their civilization had already been destroyed, who recorded it!]
[Exactly, can someone with a big dick explain this? If their civilization had already been destroyed, who on earth recorded it?]
The scene changed again. The comments that had been discussing who had recorded the footage abruptly went quiet, then began flooding the screen.
[Holy Ultraman Tiga!]
[That's fucking Ultraman Tiga!]
[Holy shit, what am I seeing? How come even Ultraman Tiga has shown up!]
[Is this the fucking legendary Land of Light!]
[Wait, what the hell is going on with this Ultraman Tiga!!!]
[Don't tell me this world has an M78 New Cloud!]
[Wait, isn't this another world? How has even Tiga shown up? This is fucking ridiculous!]
[It's obvious. This is the Ultraman world. Big Brother Pineapple transmigrated into the Ultraman world!]
Arguments raged in the livestream, and bullet comments flooded the screen.
But just then, an unfamiliar voice rang out. They were certain it was not Big Pineapple's voice.
Yet the speaker was speaking Chinese!
In an instant, the person who had claimed to be a transmigrator from the previous civilization sprang into countless viewers' minds.
"Haha, Ultraman Tiga's design is finally complete!!!"
In the livestream
[???]
[???]
[Wait, dude, you fucking transmigrated there and designed Tiga!!!!]
[Wait, you designed Tiga!]
