"Then to what extent has the Western world's research on super-powers reached now?" Wang Yu asked curiously.

"Now the West has divided and classified super-powers, listing thirteen major categories and five ranks. As the highest S-level super-powered person, the Western world has not yet appeared, but there are already several A-level super-powered people."

"Our country's research on cultivating our own super-powered people only has two B-level ability users at the highest. These are confidential materials; you just need to know them yourself, don't tell others." Chen Boshi hesitated for a moment, but still told Wang Yu and gave a warning.

Wang Yu naturally agreed readily, but couldn't help but ask about another matter:

"Doctor, what's going on with that power-generating light ball on your body earlier? Do you also have super-powers?"

"Haha, I am a researcher, how could I have super-powers? That is an 'ion force field,' because I brought this passive ion force field instrument. In the future, the base will also equip you with one." Chen Boshi was stunned for a moment, then laughed, took out a silver disk the size of a palm from his waist, and handed it over.

"Ion force field? Is our country's technology so advanced now?"

Wang Yu was somewhat incredulous, took the disk in surprise, and examined it carefully.

Very light!

The surface was unusually smooth, with a protruding crystal screen in the center displaying a series of numbers, and a row of small round holes around it.

"This type of ion force field instrument is an experimental model. Not only does it consume a lot of energy, but it also works sometimes and doesn't work other times. I only carry it just in case, but I didn't expect it to really be used. As for our country's technology now, because of some special reasons, there have actually been many epoch-making developments in these years, but ordinary people just don't know."

"Alright, is there anything else Student Ding wants to know? I will tell you everything I can, but starting tomorrow, we will begin to ask you." Chen Boshi said with deep meaning.

Wang Yu naturally heard the meaning in the other party's words. After thinking for a moment, he asked:

"I want to know, besides me, has anyone else returned from this exploration of the otherworld?"

"No, you are the only one who has returned successfully so far." Chen Boshi replied without hesitation.

"Who were the two people who suddenly attacked us earlier?"

"Although there is no evidence, besides other countries, who else could it be?"

"Then when can I go home?"

"You cannot leave here for the time being, at least until the base completes the analysis of the otherworld information. After all, you have seen it yourself; even inside the base, there are people who want to kidnap you at all costs. If you were outside, the danger would be known. You don't want to implicate your friends and relatives, do you?" Chen Boshi didn't hide it either, pointing it out.

"... Alright, it seems I can only stay in the base for a while longer. I hope others can wake up quickly too." Wang Yu said with a bitter smile.

"Haha, if others wake up too, your danger will indeed be reduced a lot."

"Doctor, is the Taiyuan super-brain very precious?" Wang Yu suddenly changed the subject.

"Taiyuan is one of the world's top super-brains, and there are very few that can compare to it. It is also the only super-brain in our China. Why ask this question?" Chen Boshi frowned.

"Because the Taiyuan sub-system helped me a lot in the otherworld this time, and I am curious about it."

"Hehe, so that's it. Taiyuan cannot be measured by money at all, because some rare materials for manufacturing Taiyuan can no longer be found on Blue Star. Even if they could be found, it might not be possible to build another one." Chen Boshi explained.

"Alright, I have no more questions. Doctor, please prepare some drawing boards and some brushes, I will draw some things out first, and then narrate the whole process of descending into the otherworld to you tomorrow."

Chen Boshi naturally agreed readily.

"By the way, 'Star River' has already been publicly tested, right? I want a most advanced game pod." Wang Yu thought for a moment, but made an additional request to Chen Boshi.

"You like the game 'Star River'?" Chen Boshi was silent for a moment before asking with a somewhat strange expression.

"More than just liking it, I am also one of the first batch of internal testers for 'Star River'? Why, Doctor, do you also play this global game?" Wang Yu felt somewhat strange seeing this.

"I am a researcher, I occasionally go in and play. Student Ding, if you really like this game, listen to my advice and try to treat everything in this game as real." Chen Boshi's eyes flickered before he said slowly.

"Chen Boshi, what does this mean?" Wang Yu was shocked upon hearing this and couldn't help but ask.

"Your permission is not enough, I cannot tell you too much. I can only tell you one sentence: the things learned in the game 'Star River' might really come in handy in the future." Chen Boshi said slowly, his expression solemn.

Wang Yu was stunned upon hearing this.

Can playing a space game have a use?

Besides, isn't the game full of mechs and spaceships? How could they be used in reality?

At this time, Chen Boshi didn't want to say anything more. He said a few words to a button-like communicator on his collar, and then someone sent in some white drawing boards and brushes.

Wang Yu steadied his mind, picked up a brush, and in front of Chen Boshi, began to draw the sixteen styles of the Four Beasts Diagram on the drawing board...

Only the sound of "rustling" came from the room, while Chen Boshi stood behind Wang Yu, curiously watching the small human figures gradually appearing on the drawing board...

At night, Wang Yu lay on the bed with his eyes closed, seemingly motionless and already asleep, but suddenly silently recited in his heart:

"Taiyuan, activate overclocking synchronization mode."

... Beep, beep... Overclocking synchronization mode activation failed. Mother system discovered. System resetting and merging... Reset and merge completion 32%. Estimated completion time: 58 hours, 46 minutes, 29 seconds...

The mechanical, numb voice rang in his brain, exceptionally clear.

Wang Yu was speechless for a while upon hearing this.

When he subdued the knife-wielding man in the suit with the Gold-Pointing Technique, he had quickly checked himself.

The super-strong body from the bloodline awakening was naturally gone, and the mana he had painstakingly cultivated was also gone. The powerful mental power obtained in the otherworld was not reduced at all, but he could not sense the existence of heaven and earth spiritual power from the surrounding void, nor could he cast any spells.

When he tried to enter the overclocking synchronization mode, he encountered the current situation.

Not only did the overclocking synchronization mode activation fail, but the auxiliary system also prompted that it had discovered the mother system, and the system was resetting and merging.

The former was easy to understand; the so-called mother system mostly referred to the 'Taiyuan' super-brain body on Blue Star, but what the hell was resetting and merging? What would happen after the reset and merge were completed?

Should he tell Chen Boshi and the others about all this?

But if others knew that he had another Taiyuan system in his brain, and that this system might have mutated in the otherworld, then his end...

I'm afraid the best result would be being locked up in the base for a lifetime, being studied by people every day.

A series of terrifying images flashed through Wang Yu's brain, and his heart sank.
