Black Swan [Second Update]

The Hound Family served as Penacony's guards and soldiers, and they were responsible for this aspect of the work.

Ji Yuan and the other two headed towards the Dreamscape Boundary.

However, halfway there, Xing suddenly stopped.

"Clockie?"

She looked ahead and said.

Upon hearing her words, Ji Yuan and Silver Wolf exchanged a glance and asked Xing in confusion, "Who are you talking to? Clockie, isn't that a character from an anime?"

"No, he's right in front of us! Can't you see him?" Xing looked puzzled. Then, with a look of sudden realization, she said to Ji Yuan and Silver Wolf, "The Clockie said only those with childlike hearts and pure souls can see him. You two..."

Ji Yuan's moral standards are almost anthropomorphic, so naturally he wouldn't have any childlike innocence.

Silver Wolf, a Stellaron Hunter has hacked countless networks and accomplished countless feats, also lacked this.

Ji Yuan thought of a question and couldn't help but ask Xing, "No, the three of us spent the stolen money together, how come you still have a childlike heart?"

We were sharing the spoils, and we were both incredibly dirty. How come you were clean?

Xing tilted her head and thought for a moment, then proudly puffed out her chest and said, "It's probably because I've done a lot of good deeds in the past, and I have a lot of high moral standards, so such a small matter as dividing the spoils won't affect my morality."

Ji Yuan: "..."

Silver Wolf: "..."

Ji Yuan looked at the Silver Wolf and asked, "I remember Xing has the genes of your Stellaron Hunter, right? Who did she inherit this shamelessness from?"

"I don't know, but it wasn't me."

Silver Wolf shook his head decisively.

Unable to see the Clockie Xing had mentioned, Ji Yuan and Silver Wolf could only watch her chat with thin air. After a while, Xing continued on her way with Ji Yuan Silver Wolf.

However, as they walked, she told Ji Yuan that the Clockie was following them.

This situation made Ji Yuan and Silver Wolf feel strange.

Forget it, forget it, let's just pretend it doesn't exist.

Ji Yuan thought to himself, and then walked to the Dreamscape Boundary.

Upon arriving at the Dreamscape Boundary, Ji Yuan and his companions were immediately stopped by guards from the Hound Family stationed there.

"This area is not yet completed. For your safety, passage is prohibited."

"I have already agreed with Mr. Sunday, the head of the Oak Family, that we have something to do at the Dreamscape Boundary."

Ji Yuan handed the document to the guard.

Upon seeing the document, the guard immediately changed his attitude and gestured to Ji Yuan, "Mr. Ji Yuan, please."

"Um."

Ji Yuan then led Xing and Silver Wolf into the Dreamscape Boundary.

It was as if they were two different worlds. Once you stepped into the Dreamscape Boundary, the whole world instantly fell silent. Golden Hour was bustling with noise, as if everyone wanted to showcase all the wonders of this world in this one city.

The Dreamscape Boundary are sparsely populated, with only a few Dreamweaver and security personnel from the Hound Family. Apart from that, there are only a handful of other people.

The scene here is like the early morning before sunrise, when night has passed and the sun has not yet risen. In the distance, you can still faintly see the first rays of dawn. Gazing into the distance like this, one feels quite relaxed.

Xing even walked directly to the railing, grabbed it with both hands, and took a deep breath.

She walked back and said to Ji Yuan and Silver Wolf, "This place is really nice. It feels like a great place for a date."

Upon hearing her words, Silver Wolf immediately patted her waist.

Who are you planning to date?

"No, it was just a remark."

Xing scratched his head and said.

However, as she said this, she subtly glanced at Ji Yuan. It was so subtle that neither Ji Yuan nor Silver Wolf noticed.

Looking at the buildings on the Dreamscape Boundary, Ji Yuan said to Silver Wolf and Star, "Let's go, let's go find Chadwick now."

"Um."

The area Dreamscape Boundary wasn't very large, and people like Chadwick were quite conspicuous. The three of them walked for a short while before spotting an old man sitting on a bench.

An ordinary-looking old man, whose white hair was barely concealed by his hat. His eyes were cloudy, and age spots were visible on his skin.

Xing muttered to herself, "Someone like that is actually a member of the Genius Society."

Before meeting Chadwick, the club members she had seen were either elegant beauties like Nguyen May and Herta, intelligent mechanical lifeforms like Screwllum, or seemingly omnipotent beings like Ji Yuan.

Such an old man was truly a surprise to her.

"The human body has its limits, but the mind is limitless," Ji Yuan said to Xing, then walked up to Chadwick.

"Hello, Mr. Chadwick."

Ji Yuan greeted him.

Upon hearing Ji Yuan's words, Chadwick looked up, his eyes filled with confusion. He seemed just like an old man suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

Upon seeing this, Ji Yuan frowned.

This wasn't mentioned when we came...

If this were in the real world, a life science expert like him could handle it easily. But now, in the dream world, Ji Yuan has a difficult time dealing with it.

Just as Ji Yuan was thinking this, Xing walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

"The Clockie told me that he and I could resolve this situation."

"You can handle this."

Ji Yuan asked another question.

"Yes." Xing nodded confidently, then walked up to Chadwick.

Next, under the puzzled gazes of Ji Yuan and Silver Wolf, Chadwick's previously bewildered expression instantly brightened.

His eyes gleamed with anger, and he was breathing heavily, as if he had just been released from prison and was breathing in fresh air.

"Thank you, young Nameless, it makes me feel much more comfortable."

He looked at the stars and expressed his gratitude.

Hearing Chadwick say that, Xing asked curiously, "How did you know I was the Nameless?"

At this moment, Chadwick chuckled. Although his face was still old, his eyes had become full of wisdom. He looked at Xing and said, "Although we have never met, I can see the vibrant Trailblaze spirit in you at a glance."

Silver Wolf grumbled from the side, "Are you really a scientist, or a charlatan?"

"Of course, Miss Hacker."

Silver Wolf: "You still say you're not a charlatan."

"Of course I'm not a charlatan." Chadwick looked at Ji Yuan behind the two of them. "At least, I can't tell who's behind you two at all. Judging from his appearance and strength, he's undoubtedly from the Celestial Ark Alliance. But he also exudes the corporate aura that I despise the most, and..."

As he said this, his eyes lit up with excitement.

"The aura of a genius."

"Yes, hello Chadwick, I am Ji Yuan, the 85th member of the Genius Society."

What brings you here?

"Of course, I'm here to take you away," Ji Yuan said without the slightest hesitation.

"Really? Take me away from here?"

Ji Yuan nodded firmly. "Yes, besides me, Mr. Screwllum is also in Penacony this time. Now the two of us will take you away, and no one can stop us."

"That's wonderful. After being imprisoned for so long, I can finally leave. My body can probably hold out for a while longer. Could you walk with me for a bit?" Chadwick stood up, walked to Ji Yuan's side, and said softly.

"Good."

Ji Yuan nodded.

Even if Chadwick only had a Memories Bubble left, he was aware of his condition. But for him, death was the true liberation.

The two walked side by side. The members of the Hound Family tried to stop them, but Ji Yuan then took out his identity document from the Interastral Peace Corporation Hound Family made them leave.

The company and family were working together to keep Chadwick under their control, and now that company people were coming, they couldn't stop them.

Chadwick watched silently from the side. After Ji Yuan finished doing all that, he asked Ji Yuan a question, "How many people did you give the Imaginary Collapse Pulse to?"

"Ah?"

Xing looked at him with a puzzled expression.

How did he know that Ji Yuan reproduced the Imaginary Collapse Pulse and then gave him several copies?

"Miss Nameless, don't be surprised. If you know me through the company, it must be because my technology has been reproduced. The fact that you let me go so easily means the company probably already has my technology." Chadwick said to Xing, "But I believe that a genius like me wouldn't be completely devoted to the company. For the sake of the universe's security, he must have been handed over to another force to maintain the balance."

"Yes, I gave out three copies. One to the company, one to Xianzhou, and one to Miss Herta."

Ji Yuan nodded.

"That's wonderful. I hope this will help maintain peace in the universe." Chadwick nodded, then looked at Ji Yuan with a kind expression. "By the way, you were able to reproduce my technology, which I believe is because you gained the favor of the Erudition Aeon due to your technology in the Imaginary Number Domain. Before I disappear, could you tell me about your technology? Let me see how much the technology in the Imaginary Number Domain has developed before I vanish."

Upon hearing Chadwick's words, Ji Yuan looked embarrassed.

Silver Wolf, standing to the side, finally burst out laughing.

"You've guessed wrong this time. Ji Yuan is most famous not for the field of imaginary numbers, but for life sciences."

"Ah?!"

This time, Chadwick was genuinely surprised.

His imaginary number technique was copied by a life scientist?

Chapter 260 Black Swan [Second Update]

"Could you tell me about your research?"

Chadwick asked Ji Yuan.

"Um."

Ji Yuan then recounted all of his research to Chadwick.

Chadwick remained silent for a long time after hearing this.

Honestly, he wouldn't have believed it if these words hadn't come from a member of a Genius Society.

After thinking for a moment, Chadwick shook his head and chuckled.

"What a pity, what a pity..."

Seeing his actions, Ji Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Chadwick, what are you regretting?"

"It's a pity I was born dozens of Aeon Epochs too early, or if I had lived as long as Mr. Screwllum." Chadwick looked at Ji Yuan: "If I could do research with you like Ms. Ruan Mei, perhaps I could have made even more progress in the field of imaginary numbers. The technology I've researched only has destructive power, but I feel it's not enough..."

Silver Wolf, standing to the side, exclaimed in shock, "That's not enough!"

The old man before him was hunched over, and Silver Wolf felt that Chadwick was even shorter than himself. But it was this little old man that Silver Wolf suddenly felt his ambition was greater than the entire Penacony.

"Yes, that's not enough. The energy released by the collapse of imaginary numbers shouldn't just be used for attacks. It needs to achieve even greater breakthroughs." Chadwick said earnestly, "Simply using it for attacks isn't enough. If I could master Imaginary Energy, that would be my lifelong wish."

"Master imaginary numbers?"

Both Star and Silver Wolf were stunned by Chadwick's idea, their eyes widening in disbelief.

"Of course, I can only think about it now. I'm dead, and I can no longer continue the research." Chadwick said, a look of disappointment appearing in his eyes.

After a moment's thought, Ji Yuan said to Chadwick, "Mr. Chadwick, you still have a Memories Bubble in the Penacony reality. I can communicate with the Memokeepers of the Garden of Recollection, and perhaps it's possible to reshape a new body for you."

He didn't know if he could do it, but he had to give it a try.

If this scientist, who suffered persecution during his lifetime, could be allowed to conduct scientific research again, it would be something worth doing.

Chadwick's eyes lit up upon hearing Ji Yuan's words. However, he immediately shook his head.

"Let's forget about it. If I were to be resurrected, the company would probably drag me into all sorts of experiments and research. I don't have the same fighting skills as you guys; I can't protect myself at all."

"It's alright, I can help you with that."

"Never mind then," Chadwick waved his hand dismissively.
