"Ah, Teacher, are you hurt?" Wu Li's voice suddenly came through, making both the emo teenager and the thoughtful Cloud Star turn their attention towards it.
Cloud Star displayed a look of "as expected," while the teenager was stunned.
Why would the Teacher get hurt? How could he still get injured under super-speed regeneration? Shouldn't all wounds heal immediately?
Countless questions flooded into his mind as Ronald got up and approached, like a curious child.
"Oh come on, it's just a minor injury, my knee accidentally got hit by a stone, and when I fell to the ground, my stomach happened to get jabbed by a steel rod." Xue Dili said, talking nonsense, since he was currently in a cursed state, such logical words would definitely not be trusted.
The three little ones all showed expressions of disbelief, and Xue Dili just shook his head slightly, pretending the whole thing never happened.
So even if the teenager wanted to ask Xue Dili for any information now, he wouldn't get anything out of it, this internal conflict was a complete waste of mental energy.
Even if he could ask, Xue Dili couldn't fully answer in his current state, leaving him to fumble with half-true words.
...
The Giant Beast attacked again, the Twin Towers collapsed, and the event where another Giant Beast appeared and killed the monstrous bird beast has become the hottest topic.
Even though the councilmen on top of the Twin Towers suffered few casualties, they narrowly escaped death and immediately started evacuation and scene maintenance until the evening, when they roughly concluded this incident.
With the explosion of the collapsed Twin Towers, this shaky building completely crumbled, and due to this incident, no high-rise buildings will appear in the Human Alliance for some time.
Meanwhile, Xue Dili's luxury car was unscathed, in fact, after a trip to the repair shop, it looked brand new.
After sending Wu Li and Ronald home, he continued to take Cloud Star back to the laboratory.
Though it was a short time, Cloud Star had already managed to harness a considerable amount of the Giant Beast's power, perhaps he now also possessed the ability to forcibly transform into a Giant Beast, but the damage to his body would be severe.
As the three little ones had discovered, Xue Dili was injured.
Not from a battle with the Giant Beast, just using the power of the Zero Super Beast caused irreversible damage to this body.
The first time he fought the Giant Beast in the rain, he only used physical strength, plus the super-speed regeneration of the Zero Giant Beast; he didn't sense it, but today after using the Cutting Disc Blade, the rampaging energy broke many capillaries as it coursed through his body.
Even though the Zero Giant Beast had super-speed regeneration, there was still a large amount of unhealed damage when he reverted to human form, which Wu Li noticed.
Even though this body was not his own, he started to pay secret attention to such losses.
"Does your body experience capillary rupture after using the Giant Beast's power?" Xue Dili began to ask the white-haired little boy in the passenger seat.
After using the Prophetic Module, he also knew which words would not be trusted, which ones would leave no impression, like rhetorical questions that don't involve personal information would not be distorted by curses.
But declarative sentences and narrative phrases that need others to believe would be distorted, others won't believe him.
Cloud Star didn't answer directly, but instead looked at Xue Dili's previous bruised area and said, "Isn't it the same for you, Teacher? Since we are using the Giant Beast's power as humans, this cost is totally acceptable."
"You're pretty optimistic."
I have to say, this kid's awareness is a bit too high; compared to the other two little ones who still have the mindset of students, he actually thinks from the perspective of a true Monarch.
And Xue Dili, after the Prophetic Module, already understood which path to take.
This world, in essence, if he could connect to the World Consciousness, he could easily resolve all crises, like the ancients thousands of years ago.
But the World Consciousness of this world seems to be thoroughly asleep, it's probably numb, watching its eldest and second sons fight foolishly, probably thinking...
"Go on, go on, keep fighting, when I wake up, there better be only one left standing, I'm going to sleep first."
Even if he tried to emulate the apocalypse of the last world, he couldn't establish any effective contact with the World Consciousness, if the world consciousness of the Holy Magic Continent was a weakling, this world's consciousness would just be a display.
Maybe it's seen its family fight for thousands of years that it's completely used to it, unless it's an apocalyptic level event or an alien Evil God descends, it really won't wake up.
So, what Xue Dili needs to do is completely lift its blanket, and negotiate a deal with the World's Consciousness to completely lure out the invader behind the scenes.
He looked at Cloud Star at this moment and said, "Ah Xing."
"Mm, what's up, Teacher?"
"Listen, next, the Teacher will do an insignificant thing, I won't die just yet, but eventually, I will die, so before I die, separate from your senior and junior disciples, understood?" Xue Dili's words came through.
However, at this moment, even though Cloud Star wanted to remember his instructions diligently, it seemed as if a voice was whispering in his ear not to trust the person in front of him.
At this time, he could not resist the curse, so he completely did not believe Xue Dili's original words, and instead, they twisted into words he absolutely believed: "Next, the teacher will do something earth-shattering. The teacher will die, but will surely return later, so before the teacher's resurrection, protect your senior brother and sister..."
The luxury car drove on the overpass. At this moment, under the dual influence of Xue Dili and the curse, these instructions were deeply engraved in his heart.
This was the last task Xue Dili gave him.
As soon as the car arrived at the entrance of the research institute, a person completely covered except for their eyes stopped the car and handed over a communication device, as if it were a brick.
"I am the Empress' Royal Guard. This is something the Empress asked me to deliver to you." The Royal Guard held only one communication device.
This world has just entered the early information age. Perhaps in some aspects, it's more advanced than the technology on Blue Star, but without the ability to launch satellites in large quantities or build signal towers in the wilderness, the communication technology is only equivalent to last century's level on Blue Star.
"I understand. Send my regards to the Empress," Xue Dili said casually.
Cloud Star naturally went back to the waterfall where he previously trained to continue controlling the flow of water and familiarizing himself with the power of the Giant Beast.
And the moment Xue Dili opened the communication device, an old man's voice sounded from the other side: "Is it Joel Xue, the Monarch? I am Krim Yushua, the current Empress. To say, before marrying into the Royal Family, we were actually from the same family. You might even have to call me cousin."
The current royal family's surname is "Yushua", so after entering the royal family, the Empress naturally had to change her surname accordingly.
The voice of the old woman on the phone carried the feel of a distant relative trying to catch up.
And Xue Dili just said "Mm," knowing that the Giant Beast attacking him on the overpass and the strange bird that appeared from the sky were all orchestrated by this Empress. Otherwise, he might have really thought this relative was just here to chat.
"Xue, our family hasn't been in contact for a long time. I heard you're in your thirties and still unmarried, always engrossed in research on spiritual energy. You recently created a sensational Magic Ring System, thoroughly surpassing the Spiritual Ability System passed down from the era of the Great Sage. I, as your cousin, am truly delighted."
The old woman's voice from the communication device was full of excitement and emotion.
If not for the intel from Odysseus, he might have truly believed it.
The Empress genuinely seemed like some distant relative indulging in family stories, talking about Xue Dili's achievements and how the Magic Ring System could change the future while mentioning Xue Dili's apparent single status.
"Tomorrow is the coming of age ceremony for our family's 12th daughter. You should join us and get to know each other." The Empress appeared extremely enthusiastic, as if she had settled the matter.
And Xue Dili smiled, only saying, "Alright, cousin, see you at Xuanwu Gate."
The communication device was hung up, and the Empress was momentarily stunned, looking at the device, pondering over Xue Dili's incomprehensible sentence earlier and how the curse might have twisted it into something else.
The Empress was naturally unaware of the Xuanwu Gate reference, but under the curse, this sentence might have poked at certain points of her anger.
"Hmph, it seems you're unwilling to give your cousin some face, huh?" The Empress's expression twisted slightly.
She sought out the current "13th Princess" and said, "Follow me, and let's see the truth of the world together."
The "13th Princess" could only nod timidly, her eyes filled with fear and confusion about the future when looking at the Empress.
She was not a real princess but a bargaining chip in the Empress's hand. Her real identity was the younger sister of Subject No. 1 from the underground lab in the Imperial Capital, and also the only relative of the current Super Beast No. 1.
In her youth, she also fantasized about escaping from the Empress's clutches. Six years ago, she attempted to ally with a child with excellent spiritual abilities, hoping to find an ally. But after the Empress discovered this, she faced endless torment and conditioning.
Now, she had completely become a timid sheep, entirely turned into a pawn used to threaten Super Beast No. 1.
The Empress, holding this bargaining chip, entered the large underground research facility. Countless staff bustled about, while the subjects in the cultivation pods screamed madly. Their integrated Super Beast blood was being inexhaustibly harvested to form the "hive consciousness" for the Super Beast King.
"Do you see? This is the future of the world, an ultimate Super Beast forever controlled by the royal family, able to single-handedly defeat all Giant Beasts and Super Beasts worldwide. The ultimate weapon of humanity will be born in my hands!" Looking at the gigantic 100-meter flesh tumor, she couldn't help but feel a surge of heroism in her heart.
As long as this power was under her control, all enemies, be they Giant Beasts or Super Beasts, could only become her prey.
She would turn a new page and become truly the number one person in the future of this world.
But suddenly, whether it was the arrival of the 13th Princess or the Empress, the slumbering Super Beast King completely awakened!
The research facility's alarm sounded, the 13th Princess immediately backed away in fear, and the Empress also showed an expression of rage.
"What happened?" she asked sharply.
However, the tentacles of the Super Beast King crushed through the tempered glass, and all shackles attempting to control it disintegrated into dust.
Having fused with the giant beast serums of thousands of different subjects, the Super Beast King was completely out of control!
