Chapter 1283: Unfathomable

Xiao Feng said curiously, "Oh? I don't know what it is? Old Zhou, just speak freely."

From an ordinary student to where he is now, although the time hasn't been long, his mind has grown a lot.

As long as it doesn't harm his own interests and freedom, if he can contribute something to his hometown, he is still very willing.

If the demands are too harsh, then he needs to consider them.

Zhou Zhenwei said, "The world of 'Myriad Heavens' is very special; our expert team has researched it for a long time but still hasn't figured out how it lets people log in. It can affect the real world and also develop people's mental power; its background is unimaginably vast, perhaps a product of some super-civilizations in outer space."

"Hmm, that's right." Xiao Feng nodded.

Zhou Zhenwei continued, "The gifts you've received these past two days even more show how immensely powerful that alien civilization is. If such a civilization were to invade us... the consequences would be unthinkable!"

Xiao Feng was taken aback, then immediately smiled and said, "Old Zhou, you don't need to worry too much about this. As far as I know, the game's publisher is a cosmic nation whose territory spans several star systems; to them, our planet is no more than a grain of sand on a beach, lacking both the qualification and necessity for invasion."

"A cosmic nation spanning star systems?" Zhou Zhenwei had never heard of this; a look of surprise appeared on his aged face.

Xiao Feng nodded and said, "Hmm, this is based on solid information; I'm high level and have more exposure, so I have some understanding."

"Hiss... then what else do you know?" Zhou Zhenwei asked repeatedly.

Xiao Feng said, "Let me think... right, earlier I heard an expert from the foreign server say that the purpose of releasing the game Myriad Heavens is to guide all civilizations in the universe to evolve and grow together. The willpower and a small part of the cultivation methods in the game can be reflected in the real world. Our planet still has few evolvers; in this area we should pay more attention and study, perhaps we'll gain something."

This information isn't a secret; even if he doesn't say it, once others have more exposure, they'll know too.

Zhou Zhenwei gave a slight nod: "Yes, indeed some people have brought out the cultivation methods from the game; although the effects aren't obvious in the short term, they are indeed much more efficient than regular physical training."

Xiao Feng continued, "Such a path of evolution is called 'Transcendent Evolution' in the mouths of alien civilizations. Many civilizations on other planets have already become transcendent civilizations; a random invasion of our world could easily sweep us away. But... the universe is vast, the starry sky boundless, the distance between them is our safeguard. Old Zhou need not worry about an alien invasion. If you're uneasy, you can strongly promote the path of Transcendent Evolution, letting the common people develop together; in the future there will naturally be many experts able to resist foreign enemies."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhenwei fell into thought and asked, "Xiao Feng, have you already started walking this path?"

Xiao Feng humbly said, "I have taken some action, but it's only just begun, feeling my way across the river by touching stones."

As for his own strength, he prefers not to speak of it if he can avoid it.

Saying it out loud would scare people and easily provoke a bad reaction.

Zhou Zhenwei's face showed appreciation: "As a young person, to have such an opportunity and courage, your future achievements are limitless. I will consider your words; later I will discuss with the superiors to see how to decide."

The impact of opening Transcendent Evolution to the entire populace is too great; no one knows what will happen in the future.

This matter must be carefully considered!

Xiao Feng didn't say anything else.

He is just an ordinary youth; now he only wants to do two things: gain stronger power in the game, and break through the Controller Realm in reality.

Besides that, he isn't very concerned about other matters.

Zhou Zhenwei didn't let him go, and continued chatting casually.

"Xiao Feng, in the past month, many people have neglected their work because of the game, causing social disorder; what are your views and suggestions on this?" he asked.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but wryly smile.

This is a sociological problem; he's not researching this field, so how could he understand?

"Old Zhou thinks highly of me; this kind of matter should be maintained by big shots like you; as a player I can't do anything." He said.

Zhou Zhenwei shook his head, speaking solemnly: "You're not an ordinary player; as long as you speak up, many people who play the game will be influenced by you!"

"Uh..." Xiao Feng froze.

Zhou Zhenwei continued, "If possible, I hope you can do some publicity, letting people not be too addicted to the game and pay more attention to life. Otherwise, if this continues, even though current grain production increases and no one will starve, industrial production and technological development will stagnate or even regress, causing severe harm to human society."

Xiao Feng nodded and said, "Okay, if I get the chance I'll promote it." This kind of thing is a trivial effort, not difficult.

"Hmm, it's best you also lead by example, not spend all day immersed in the game. Young people should be energetic; if you should go back to class, then go back to class." Zhou Zhenwei added, like an old grandfather lecturing his grandson.

Xiao Feng immediately felt embarrassed and scratched his head.

He and Old Li and the others haven't attended class for over a month, and they all collectively failed the final exams, a sight too painful to behold.

However, nobody really cares about that anymore; after all, they made over a hundred million in assets at once, more than an ordinary person earns in three lifetimes, so whether they graduate or not doesn't matter.

Zhou Zhenwei seemed to think of something and then said: "Hey Xiao Feng, I heard... you little rascal are quite the flirt?"

"Uh..."

Xiao Feng became even more embarrassed, weakly asking: "Is this... illegal?"

Zhou Zhenwei said: "If you're not married, it's not illegal, but it's immoral, and spreading it would also have a bad influence."

Xiao Feng helplessly said: "There's nothing to be done; some things are hard to control."

In his heart he silently complained: morality and such are merely human-made.

As long as he's strong enough, nobody dares to criticize him!

"Well, forget it, we can't control this either. You'd better pay more attention yourself; don't let your young body collapse." Zhou Zhenwei sighed.

Xiao Feng laughed: "Yes, thanks for the reminder, Old Zhou!"

Inside, however, he couldn't help but chuckle.

Will his body collapse?

Not to mention the three at home; even if we count those few in the game, there's no pressure at all.

Unless... he meets a woman stronger than him!

"Hmm, go out and play; if anything comes up later, you can have Xiao Yang or someone from your neighborhood contact me. If we need your help on our side, we'll also notify you, hoping you can cooperate a bit." Zhou Zhenwei said.

Xiao Feng nodded: "Always ready to serve the motherland!" Then he rose and took his leave.

Zhou Zhenwei watched Xiao Feng depart, not withdrawing his gaze until he reached outside the villa.

Squeak~

The small door beside it opened, and an old man with white hair walked out.

"Old Ge, how is it? Did you see anything?" Zhou Zhenwei asked.

The white-haired old man's face was solemn; he spoke in a low voice, uttering six characters: "This child... is unfathomable."

Zhou Zhenwei's expression changed.

To make this old man utter the words "unfathomable," there is only one such person in the entire world!

Even if the so-called "Ten Great Masters" came here, at most they'd just be "not bad"!

"What Ge Lao means... could that kid have already surpassed a Grand Master?" Zhou Zhenwei asked.

"Perhaps even more than that." Ge Lao also seemed not very confident.

He glanced toward downstairs and said: "He's the matter, don't worry too much. What we said may have already been heard by him."

"What!" Zhou Zhenwei's face changed dramatically.

Even with several dozen meters and three soundproof glass walls, could one still hear?

What kind of hearing would that require?

Even high-tech sound-capturing equipment can't do that!

Ge Lao closed his eyes and added: "Some things are best left unspoken. He's not ill-natured; don't offend him, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable."

"This... alright."

Zhou Zhenwei sighed, suddenly feeling that the world seemed to be changing, yet he felt somewhat powerless.

The future world will probably be completely different from what was imagined before.
