Chapter 367: Chapter 367 Soul Seed
The soul seed obtained some time ago has matured, it was a very beautiful Chinese rose. However, the fairy hiding in the flowers surprised Zhou Yu a little. It was actually the mini version of the dying girl, Yuanyuan. And at this moment, she was sleeping in the flowers with a pale face.
So far, Zhou Yu was the only human being who could transform into a mini person in the ACG world. Could it be that this dying girl also awakened her special ability?
"Are you Yuanyuan?"
To be honest, there was still a little concern in Zhou Yu’s heart. After all, this was the first time that he had encountered a real-world person in the ACG world, and it was also the type of person that would go to heaven at any time. So he still couldn’t tell what it was. Especially when this seed was named after the word ‘soul’, it wouldn’t really be a ghost, would it!?
Thinking about it this way, there was a chill all over his body, but the sleeping girl obviously showed no sign of waking up, so he couldn’t get any answer. Zhou Yu has also encountered this kind of situation before. Could it be a curse again? After finding the Immortal Crane, he was told that everything was normal, and the reason why she was still sleeping was that she needed someone to wake her up.
Need someone to wake her up? So like the cartoon Sleeping Beauty? In that case, she probably needed her prince, but who was her prince? After thinking about it carefully, the prince of the girl Yuanyuan was probably her boyfriend, who Zhou Yu gave the gift to. Then this would be easy. Because after the post that that boyfriend made exploded online, Uncle Fu even planned to invite the girl and her boyfriend to live in the Zen Villa for a while.
In fact, Zhou Yu didn’t like this decision very much. If a patient was moving so much, maybe her life would be shortened. Moreover, if something unexpected happened during the time she lived in Zen Villa, what were they going to do?
Unfortunately, even the doctor also agreed, saying that instead of spending the rest of her time in the ward, it was better to enjoy the rest of the time doing something she liked. And the family of the girl, Yuanyuan, was also quite rich, so they happily agreed to the invitation, so soon, they would come to the park. He could simply leave this pot of rose in the Zen Villa, and then once the couple moved in, the problem surely would be solved as well.
At this time, the King of Thieves approached him and said, "Don’t worry, my lord, although I have never seen a soul seed before, it is definitely not a ghost. Apart from wanderers, no one in the real world can transform into a mini person in the ACG world. If my lord still has doubts, you can ask the people in the underground research institute for a more accurate explanation."
He was truly the king of thieves,
The Underground Research Institute was also interested in the Soul Seed. When they heard about Zhou Yu’s problem, the director Bing Tang, who didn’t know how to smile, said with an indifferent voice: "The Soul Seed? I have never heard of this. After the host that produced the seed comes to the amusement park, we will study it. I can’t give you the answer yet, but it is most likely due to the influence of the ACG World force."
Zhou Yu’s eyes widened, "You have never seen a soul seed before? That can’t be right. If it is the influence of the ACG World force, there were also many wanderers in the past, but why weren’t there any soul seeds in the past?"
Bing Tang paused and seemed to be thinking about this question. After a while, she replied, "There is indeed no soul seed data in the database. Probably, it is a brand-new species. Her functions are all unknown, and it may be helpful in the future. So, Mr. Zhou, please take care of her."
As for why new species were created, Bing Tang couldn’t answer it now, so they didn’t carry on discussing this question. When the comprehensive analysis of the Soul Seed was completed, surely there would be an answer.
After all, this was the Underground Research Institute’s job.
Speaking of the underground research institute, Zhou Yu had also been here after he was able to transform into a mini person. The main purpose was to find out what they were doing, especially their research.
In this place, Zhou Yu saw many interesting things, all of which were the effects of the ACG World force after it was leaked from the cracks of the dimensional wall over the years into the real world. There was a lot of information regarding the new species, or changes in human beings in the real world.
There were also a lot of specimens here, including a lot of seeds that Zhou Yu had gotten in the past, but there were a lot more that he had never seen before. It made him mouth water all the time. It was a pity that these seeds could no longer be used, otherwise, he really wanted the King of Thieves to sneak in and rob this place, then Luhua City would have no shortage of talents.
And the two questions that had always puzzled Zhou Yu, were also finally figured out after a period of study. The first of the two was that even if the dimensional crack did appear, why only he was selected, and why not other people in Luhua village. The second question was why the underground research institute could help the amusement park with network security protection.
First of all, the selection of wanderers was not random. Generally speaking, the person’s otaku power within the effective range of the ACG World force must reach a certain standard. Since Zhou Yu entered Luhua Village and started living as an otaku, the Underground Research Institute has kept their eyes on him, because if there were no people with high otaku power living here, even if the dimensional crack appeared, there would be no wanderers.
Without wanderers, when the ACG World force affected reality and produced something that could only be found in the Chaotic Land, it would immediately attract the attention of Starlight City and Fallen City, and then the existence of the Underground Research Institute would be exposed. Sure enough, Zhou Yu’s performance was very good, and he quickly became the leader of Luhua Village in The ACG World, and steadily occupied this land.
Next, Starlight City and Fallen City could only choose to isolate Luhua City.
Another question was why the underground research institute could protect the network in the real world.
This question was divided into two parts. First, the computer room of the underground research institute had a precious Ancient Jade Eye left by the previous wanderer, which could sense the existence of peepers and stop them. Under the influence of the ACG World force, the Ancient Jade Eye’s ability could connect to the network and resist external network invasion.
However, it was limited to the scope of Luhua City.
After learning about the underground research institute, Zhou Yu was relieved, he only needed to send someone to guard this important building. In addition, it has strong security capabilities, and may even be safer than the inner city.
"Boy Yu! That Yuanyuan girl is coming, and reporters are waiting at the entrance of the amusement park. Come out quickly and make an appearance."
Uncle Fu was still that straightforward. Although Zhou Yu didn’t like the media very much, and he usually would not make an appearance in this kind of situation, this time was an exception because he still needed to do his quest.
Helplessly, Zhou Yu could only choose to appear.
However, the speed of the Underground Research Institute was also very fast. Bing Tang brought a group of people in white coats and various instruments to get on Zhou Yu’s shoulders. It seemed that she didn’t want to waste a second.
If that Yuanyuan knew that she would not be able to escape inspection when she came here, and the Zen Villa would not be as quiet as she imagined, would she still want to come here?
