Chapter 327: Progress?

Originally, it was heard once every 4 or 5 days, and it was blurry and unclear; one simply couldn't hear what that whispering was saying at all.

But now, the frequency of hearing the whispering has become about 1 or 2 times a day, and some people can even hear it 3 or 4 times.

There is even a very small minority of people who can hear clearly what those whispers are saying.

According to the descriptions of that very small minority, the whispering is telling them that the person emitting the whisper—let's call them a person for now—

is describing their own state.

Some states are quite good; they feel that they are doing very well and have already reached a very good stage.

Some states are relatively poor, and they have put forward their own opinions, demanding that those who hear the whispers do this or that.

But the source of the whispering has remained unknown.

Except for that researcher who says the whispering is emitted by machinery.

Now, even though this researcher is mocked by everyone, he remains firm in his own ideas and is still actively searching for evidence that the whispering is emitted by machinery.

The report says that this researcher has already made some progress and just needs a little time.

These matters make Ye Cang sigh deeply.

The blood tests yielded no results, and he even brought in a few people to conduct comprehensive examinations, which also yielded no results.

Except for the fact that their brain waves are 50 percent more active than before, and the activity level is still constantly rising.

Looking at these reports in front of him, Ye Cang couldn't help but zone out.

What on earth is going on!

Why is it like this!

Excluding the possibility of Old God whispers, as far as the current situation is concerned, this looks more like an invasion by Tzeentch.

As for mental illness... the possibility is very small, because all research personnel can pass the tests.

If it really is Tzeentch...

Then, a gamma-ray burst will descend from the sky... and annihilate everything.

Taking a sip of water, Ye Cang looks at the report with flickering eyes; he is wondering whether to call over that person who says this is machinery whispering.

Talking to him might yield some gains.

Before Ye Cang could decide, a "Ding!" suddenly sounded in the laboratory.

At the same time, Kaisha, who was sleeping soundly on the table, lifted her head with a dazed expression and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth.

Only then did she walk unsteadily to an instrument and begin to operate it.

After about 10 minutes, Kaisha brought a thick stack of reports to Ye Cang.

"These are the genetic test reports for all the Super Soldiers and researchers with persistent high fevers. These are the results I obtained by enabling Angel Technology; take a look."

Ye Cang took the genetic report from Kaisha's hand but did not open it, instead placing it on the table.

"Kaisha, you said you used Angel Technology; are you sure this won't cause a genetic leak? The Angels don't fully belong to Huaxia yet."

Kaisha did not get angry at Ye Cang's words.

Because there was really nothing to be angry about; if it were her, she would have asked this question too. She just wouldn't have asked it so bluntly.

"Don't worry, it won't," Kaisha replied. "This isn't sending samples directly to the Angel Nebula for testing; this is using Angel algorithms combined with modifications to the machine to obtain the results."

"If this could leak, then I suggest you check your internal staff."

After hearing this, Ye Cang did not speak.

Instead, he silently picked up the genetic test report and began to examine it.

After a thorough check, there were still no findings.

In the end, Ye Cang decided to meet the researcher who said the whispering was emitted by machinery.

But before that, Ye Cang needed to do some preparatory work.

"Zhizi."

"Zhizi is here."

"Zhizi, scan the entire Underground Scientific Research Base for everything related to the number 9 and 'Change'; it must be a detailed scan, not a single detail is to be missed!"

"Zhizi received!"

9 is the sacred number of Tzeentch, and "Change" is the title of Tzeentch, the Lord of Change, Tzeentch.

Although the system said that the Four Ruinous Powers cannot break the Dimensional Wall, and even if they could, the Golden Giant wouldn't let them come over.

But there are exceptions to everything; Tzeentch, one of the Chaos Four Dark Gods—also known as one of the Warp Four Dark Gods—is the most cunning and devious Evil God among the four!

It controls all change; who knows, maybe this guy had a sudden epiphany and found a way to cross the Universe.

He must act carefully and let Zhizi scan first; if it really is Tzeentch, then there's no need to build anything, just fire a gamma-ray burst!

As for why he didn't scan before, it was because Ye Cang felt the possibility of it being Tzeentch was small, but now...

Sigh!

This scan by Zhizi took a full half hour.

It shows just how thorough Zhizi was.

Half an hour later, Zhizi reported to Ye Cang.

"After scanning, nothing related to the word 'Change' was found in the Underground Scientific Research Base."

"And regarding the number nine, the only things detected were that some of these researchers have birthdays in September, or were born in the nineties; other than that, no other events were detected."

Zhizi's scan undoubtedly put Ye Cang's heart at ease, if only a little.

Although nothing related to Tzeentch was detected, it is still better to be careful.

"Kaisha, go back and rest for a while; you've been busy for several days," Ye Cang said to Kaisha without turning his head.

Ye Cang's words took Kaisha by surprise.

"Wow, Ye Cang, when did you change your personality? You actually learned to care about me; I remember you weren't like this before!"

As Kaisha spoke, she nimbly took off her white lab coat.

She then stretched out in a big yawn and walked away from the laboratory with her short legs.

When she reached the doorway, she did not forget to wave at Ye Cang.

Very quickly, Kaisha disappeared without a trace.

Ye Cang then notified the researcher who could hear the Mechanical Whisper to come to his office.

Soon, that researcher arrived in the office and sat down opposite Ye Cang.

"Chie... Chief Engineer." The researcher was somewhat reserved and did not dare to breathe a word.

Seeing this, Ye Cang directly rubbed his hands together to heat up some water and handed it to him.

"Don't be nervous, drink some water and calm down."

"I called you here this time to ask you about that Mechanical Whisper you mentioned, and I also heard that you are trying to prove this matter?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the researcher immediately perked up.

"Yes, Chief Engineer, you are right. I am indeed trying to find a way to prove that the whisper is emitted by the machines, and just now, I have already made some progress."

"But before I could conduct further experiments, I was called over by you."

"Hm? Really?" Upon hearing this, Ye Cang also perked up.

He looked at the researcher without blinking.

Although still a bit nervous, after steadying himself, the researcher began to explain his findings.
