Lanier's eyes drifted towards Ronan again, but his urge to ask questions was dispelled by the caution and even absurdity that spread easily after seeing the focused and troubled young face.
Soon, new doubts emerged:
Why did Ronan do this?
Just looking at the complex space-time bubble structure that is almost dazzling, Lanier really does not have the corresponding analytical ability, so he cannot understand the corresponding ideas. He can only analyze it from a practical perspective:
Is Ronan doing this to enrich the functions of the Leichi Experimental Field? To make the "game" he created more playable? Or to achieve some kind of shock?
These questions also cannot be answered clearly in self-thinking.
Lanier's eyes turned back to the virtual workspace in front of him, and when he saw the game interface, he suddenly laughed: What about victory and defeat? This is simply a simple mode with the difficulty set to the lowest level.
After realizing this, he was still very interested.
This "game" handmade by Ronan should be closely related to the surrounding space-time structure. Through it, more information can undoubtedly be observed and recorded.
Then continue.
As the "game operation" gradually improved, Lanier also gradually understood: when he specifically clicked on a certain 'stitch monster', it turned out that there was a "prompt message", or in other words, it guided his perception there.
, let users first understand what it is.
Many of the scenes listed actually have similar tips. Unfortunately, Lanier is not a professional in this regard and can only rely on perception and experience to cooperate.
As he continued to play with half-thoughts and half-experiments, Lanier came to realize more and more how complicated, exquisite and profound the design was.
He unconsciously looked at Ronan again, seeing this young man who was scratching his hair and thinking, seemingly more irritable than Geng Huai, and suddenly became extremely curious:
Being able to build such an unimaginably complex space-time structure, being able to "sew" together all kinds of strange alien monsters, being able to play with a super-ordinary strongman like Geng Huai at the palm of his hand...
What kind of problems will Ronan be troubled by?
Perhaps his eyes and questions had accumulated to a certain extent. Ronan, who had been staring at the virtual workspace and thinking hard, finally sensed something and turned his head to look over.
"How's it going? Is it okay?"
Lanier used Quan Minhyuk's face and gave a sincere smile: "A magical construction...Excuse me, what is the truth of this?"
It was also because the doubts accumulated in the past were too heavy, so he asked quite straightforwardly.
Ronan’s answer was simple, but he didn’t beat around the bush: “Imitation of some space-time configuration examples, and of course theoretical support.”
He knew the configuration, he just added "time and space"...
Also, are there any theories?
Lanier asked: "Theory?"
"For example, the application of some general knowledge is mainly about truth visualization. Well, it is how to stand at the origin of oneself and recognize, understand and define the external world more efficiently and accurately."
Lanier tried to understand: "It's a bit like Ouyang's self-logic. If so, everyone's approach is different."
"Theory is that theory, skills and templates are still very important. Yes, at first it was about imitation and learning... Now these are basically exercises, and many of them can only be looked at."
Lanier looked around subconsciously, and it was really difficult to connect the layered space-time bubble structure with the "exercise homework".
"Of course, I have to analyze myself later." Ronan continued to explain his doubts, "I call the method I am accustomed to the 'large coordinate system'."
Large coordinate system?
Lanier chewed the word in his mind several times, and just as he had a taste of it, Ronan laughed and said: "We can talk about it when we have time, but now I have other considerations..."
"you mean?"
"Mr. Lanier, are there any plans to send out experimenters in the near future?"
Lanier was very surprised. Regarding the delivery of experimental personnel, hadn't the two parties already agreed on the batch and number of people? Why did Ronan ask knowingly?
However, he still answered patiently: "After all the personnel of this batch are withdrawn, the next batch will be dispatched around the 5th..."
He felt that he vaguely understood what Ronan meant, and added: "The structure of the Leichi test site has greatly exceeded our expectations. We can further discuss the scale of relevant test personnel and even the scope of cooperation. Professor Luo, what do you think?
"
"Oh, sure."
Ronan's reaction was a little too bland, even a little disappointed. It was obvious that Lanier's initiative was not on point.
Lanier was even more disappointed.
This shows that his close observation did not help him draw a more accurate judgment. And judging from the current situation, this has nothing to do with whether he is familiar with the person or whether he recognizes the person. It is purely because of the huge changes in the direction and level of thinking.
Differences and even faults.
fault...
It is not easy to accept this conclusion.
Lanier does not want to emphasize things like age and seniority, but in the history of human civilization over the past several thousand years, in most stages, the level of thinking is basically positively correlated with the length of age and seniority.
Once there is a serious mismatch between the two, it basically means that there has been an innovative replacement between the two modes of thinking, so that the knowledge system and cognitive mode have also fallen into the same situation.
situation.
Of course, this is just one consideration.
But just this possibility is enough to push Lanier into a long and even more painful judgment.
Lanier's thinking was so complicated and in-depth that he completely forgot what he had promised Ronan earlier, right under Ronan's nose.
The stitch monsters he arranged single-handedly lost timely supplements and a more reasonable layout, and once again triggered the ending of total annihilation.
When Lanier was once again awakened by the turbulent vibrations, the space-time bubble lost control, even if it had been calibrated to a simple difficulty level, he would really be unable to hold on.
The scene inside the space-time bubble was completely distorted and collapsed, and the relevant scenes in the game selection interface also entered a gray and unselectable state.
Under Ronan's gaze, Lanier felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Mr. Lanier, do you want to continue?" Ronan became patient at this time, "If you want to continue, some complicated operations may be required. Directly overwriting the scene may cause the space-time bubble to collapse..."
"It's not necessary." After a round of hard thinking without success, Lanier's interest in studying this surface design was inevitably exhausted.
"In the beginning, it was just for the sake of gaining acquaintance. Now that I have experienced him, I still have to struggle with Geng Huai, fearing that I will not look good when we meet him in the future."
While Lanier refused, he was also tempted.
Ronan's answer was a bit subtle: "In the future..."
Lanier's heart tightened slightly, and he was subconsciously worried about Geng Huai. At this moment, Ronan's eyes were fixed on the space-time bubble on the river not far away.
Undoubtedly.
Don't blame him for overthinking. Having stayed in the position of chief priest for such a long time, and being one of the strongest men in the world, Lanier's interpersonal network is dense and complex.
It was inevitable for him to be affected by this network, and it was inevitable for him to consider what kind of turmoil it would cause in the other world if the wild boar Geng Huai was really slaughtered by Ronan here.
Of course, there is also him as an eyewitness, witness and even participant, who can never stay out of this turmoil.
At this thought, Lanier blurted out: "This person..."
But without waiting for him
After finishing speaking, Ronan next to him had already reached over and made a few strokes on his virtual workspace.
What his fingertips touched was the "Scene" column in the game interface. As for the options, it was the "Starry Sky" that Lanier had seen before.
You just said not to replace it easily!
The resentment in Lanier's heart was subtle.
This made his reaction slow down for another half a beat. Ronan had already clicked successfully. The blurry "soap bubble" above the river suddenly dimmed. The previous "transparent body" was also affected by the sudden darkness.
Replacement.
Lanier can no longer see the grudge.
Whether it was from the real scene or from the game interface in the virtual workspace, all he saw was lightless darkness—the most obvious difference from the river view under the afternoon sun.
Then there is the process of continued shrinkage of this unsightly area.
This contraction is even more visually impressive than the last one because it was rapid, regular... and firm.
In just one or two breaths, the time and space shrinks all the way to the size of a fist. The more it shrinks, the more distinct the texture becomes, vaguely like a black pearl, rolling in the air.
The direction of rolling is on the side of the grocery wheel.
During this period, the strong interference power of Geng Huai and Yuan District continued to emerge from the space-time bubble, including his voice.
Surrendered in the energy torrent, it is inevitable that there will be serious deformation, but the meaning is clear and consistent:
"Luo, don't fall into my hands!"
This guy is so stubborn.
Lanier couldn't bear to hear this: Even if you just shut up, let me help you explain here!
At this time, he almost forgot who was having a great time earlier...
Ronan had no reaction at all to such words. When the black pearl floated close to him, he reached out to grab a handful and held it in his hands.
Lanier frowned subconsciously, making sure that Ronan really held the space-time bubble in his hand. From this moment on, all the tremors and clamors suddenly pressed the pause button.
Wuzhishan?
Lanier was also familiar with Eastern classic texts and quickly found the correspondence. Although one was a monkey and the other was a wild boar.
The thoughts in his mind were more or less messed up, but there was one thing that he had to do no matter what. He took an unprecedented serious attitude since the meeting and solemnly reminded:
"Professor Luo, although Geng Huai is annoying, the crime will not lead to death."
Ronan looked at him for about half a second to a second, and then said: "Mr. Lanier, you have sent 35 people here this time... Who do you think is more important than Mr. Wild Boar?"
Heavier?"
threaten me?
Lanier felt that this was not quite like Ronan's style. He hesitated for a moment and chose to tell the truth: "Even if Min Hyuk is added, our side is far inferior."
"Yes, the meteor shower of 35-66 is in no way comparable to a meteor that can fall directly to the ground..."
"ah?"
"Excuse me, please give way."
While speaking, Ronan took two big steps back, almost hitting the bulkhead behind.
Lanier subconsciously gave way to the space and saw the young man slightly staggering the angle with the railing in order to have a longer distance.
Then, when he jumped twice in a row and almost hit the railing, he stretched his arms and exerted force, like throwing a stone...or a grenade?
Anyway, he threw the space-time bubble in his hand far away:
"Let's go!"
Lanier's eyelids twitched four or five times, not knowing whether he was stimulated by this scene. He also clearly saw that under the rays of the sun that had just emerged from the clouds, there were brilliant meteors, flying in the opposite direction and trailing away.
