Chapter 1407 The Essence of "Bizarre Transformation" and the "Bloodstained Little Not
Chen Mu's answer was exactly what Shen Hanmeng expected.
However, Shen Hanmeng was still somewhat disappointed after hearing Chen Mu's reply.
"Mr. Chen, are you sure... you don't want to invest all your resources in betting on space?"
Chen Mu smiled and shook his head. "I believe my watchful eye on the river can withstand the impact of the great flood. And I don't think space is really the way out."
I see space as a fallback option in case of failure. But I'm not prepared to face failure; I have a confidence that victory will always be on my side.
Shen Hanmeng smiled helplessly, "Those in power seem to be quite conservative. Boss Chen, you and the higher-ups at Storm Defense Line have made the same choice."
Those in power are all so conservative.
It's clear that in Shen Hanmeng's mind, the choices of those in power—whether it's Storm Defense Line or Chen Mu—are conservative.
Shen Hanmeng didn't seem particularly interested in his "space dream."
Hearing Shen Hanmeng's remark, Chen Mu shrugged helplessly and pretended not to hear it.
Chen Mu admitted that, from a scientist's perspective, Shen Hanmeng was indeed outstanding.
However, Chen Mu viewed the situation more from the perspective of a strategist.
Since they have different perspectives, the issues they consider are naturally different as well.
Moreover, Chen Mu knew far more information than Shen Hanmeng.
How many factions exist in this bizarre post-apocalyptic world? What are their entanglements with each other? What is their current situation?
Does Shen Hanmeng know?
Clearly, he was unaware of this.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Chen Mu did not adopt Shen Hanmeng's suggestion.
Space exploration is a viable avenue for development. However, for the future, for the bizarre, post-apocalyptic future, it may not be the true path.
Chen Mu also found it difficult to say what the real path truly is.
Chen Mu and Shen Hanmeng chatted for a while longer.
The two stopped talking about the future and started discussing the rocket launch center.
Shen Hanmeng is now suffering from claustrophobia.
However, his "claustrophobia" was much more severe; any building around him felt "cramped" and unbearable to him.
Chen Mu also took good care of him. Considering his situation, Chen Mu decided that Shen Hanmeng could remotely control the distant rocket launch base from this open field.
Chen Mu asked Xu Yueji to set up a computer for Shen Hanmeng in the haystack.
In this way, Shen Hanmeng can handle any situation at the rocket launch center remotely.
After chatting for a while and explaining everything that needed to be explained, Chen Mu prepared to go back first.
There are still many things that need his attention at the Shanshui Courtyard.
He also needs to take the time to figure out the last eerie scene.
After saying goodbye to Shen Hanmeng, Chen Mu returned alone.
Ye Changsheng wanted to see Chen Mu off, but Chen Mu politely declined. He told Ye Changsheng to go about his other business and not to see him off anymore.
Chen Mu wanted to be alone and quiet because he had many thoughts in his mind that needed to be sorted out.
Although meeting Shen Hanmeng will not change the direction of Wangjiang Shouwang, it still provides a lot of inspiration for Chen Mu's thinking.
In particular, Shen Hanmeng's "life migration" hypothesis reminded Chen Mu of the mythological era, the Great Flood, and... the origin of Hell.
If we follow that hypothesis, are the monsters in hell truly of the same origin as humanity? Are they all descendants of powerful beings from ancient times?
During the "Great Flood," one group of powerful individuals chose to stay on the mainland, while another group chose to escape to a smaller world.
Millions of years later, the descendants of these two powerful groups diverged into humans and the supernatural...
To be honest, Chen Mu thought this conjecture was a bit ridiculous.
He didn't believe that the supernatural and humans were truly of the same origin—they were two completely different kinds of beings!
One of the biggest differences is that the supernatural can use the power of rules through bizarre scenarios.
However, humans cannot enter eerie scenes; they are bound by rules and cannot create eerie scenes themselves.
The ability to utilize the rules is only one aspect; there are many other differences as well…
"I feel that the truth about hell might not be so simple. It's definitely not just a difference between two groups of refugees," Chen Mu murmured to himself.
"What I am seeing now may only be a part of the truth, just the tip of the iceberg!"
It's like the blind men and the elephant; if one touches a leg, they can't say the elephant is a pillar.
Chen Mu has always been tireless in his pursuit of the truth.
Behind the Supreme Being of the Deceptive Path, there may not be as simple as mere ambition.
At this moment, Chen Mu suddenly remembered that he had unlocked a "weirdness" skill a long time ago.
After using this skill, one can switch from the human camp to a strange identity in a short period of time.
However, this skill is useless in the Ghost Gate.
So for a long time, Chen Mu didn't use it anymore and gradually forgot about it.
Its effect has indeed become much smaller, but... looking back now, let's examine its effect—it temporarily turns people into eerie beings.
Reflecting on my own experience, here are my speculations about hell...
Chen Mu vaguely sensed that this "weird" skill seemed to hide some secret.
Similarly, he also possesses the skill of "blood-red little notes".
This skill also leans towards the bizarre and is strongly associated with the rules.
One becomes a monster, the other possesses the ability to control strange rules...
Chen Mu suddenly felt that his two unique skills seemed to associate him with the supernatural.
You can be a human, or you can use skills to possess a bizarre identity, bizarre abilities... and become bizarre.
Chen Mu suddenly realized that the essence of these two skills was to transform himself into a monster!
The person... is strange...
It felt as if I was standing between two existences, able to jump left and right.
Chen Mu had observed that, apart from himself, no one else possessed this skill.
In other words, this ability to jump left and right is unique to him.
It's obvious that my identity is different from others!
Chen Mu felt that he was standing between humans and demons, more like a bridge spanning the middle!
"That's strange, where did I get this skill from?" Chen Mu couldn't help but scratch his head.
In addition, there is his own rebirth, which remains unexplained to this day.
Chen Mu suddenly realized that the secrets he harbored were no less than those of the mysterious Supreme Being of the Unorthodox Path.
The good news is that as your level increases, you'll encounter more and more bizarre quests.
Chen Mu is now slowly getting closer to the truth of all this.
He was peeling back the layers, revealing the core of the truth step by step.
It's always good to keep moving forward.
By the time Chen Mu thought of this, he had already walked far away.
He turned his head and glanced at the scientist who had given him the key inspiration; he was standing in the wilderness.
The sky darkened, and a light drizzle began to fall.
Shen Hanmeng stood in the rain without even using an umbrella.
