Rules of the Strange: I Became a God in a Bizarre World Through Taoist Arts

"I guess... it must have witnessed some unspeakable secret before it died."

Lu Qianling gave her conclusion.

Qin Shi listened from the side, nodded, and added his own speculation.

"I have collected all the records of ghost stories to date. All the ghost stories are set in different times and places, but none of them have shown a level of technology that surpasses our interstellar level."

"Even the extreme survival environment of the apocalypse did not force humans to evolve into mutants, so the possibility that beings from other dimensions could control elemental power is extremely low."

A hint of disgust appeared on Qin Shi's face.

"From this perspective, the abilities that Sister Shen's roommates in the ghost stories possess must be the result of extremely vicious experiments."

Su Anyu's spirits lifted upon hearing this. "Then that means... this inhumane experiment must be quite 'famous' in history! Can we find relevant information from that time? Once we have the true facts of the story, Sister Shen will be able to navigate the ghost stories with even greater ease!"

Qin Shi shook his head regretfully.

"Li Hua and I have already checked the Huaxu team's internal network. Not only is there no record of it in history, but there is also almost zero similar experimental data."

Li Hua laid out his compiled database in front of everyone.

"There are a total of 15 similar records, with intervals ranging from 3 to 20 years between these experimental records."

Li Hua's expression became unnatural under everyone's gaze. He coughed twice before continuing:

"Furthermore, each experimental record does not meet the standards for scientific research record archiving."

He zoomed in on the text on the screen.

"However, Qin Shi and I discovered that the written records we can trace so far are all in the same format."

[YJ Adaptability Study - Date - Experimental Conclusion - CSJ]

"However, the abbreviations of the experiment names are different. YJ appears the most often, and others include JT, RQ, QN, etc."

"Hmm... Qin Shi and I both agree that CSJ is an abbreviation of the name of the person recording the experiment."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qianling added at the opportune moment, "This conjecture is very likely correct."

"Three to twenty years is not a long time. Even in the 21st century, when Sister Shen lived, the average human lifespan was 80 years."

"But... a vague record probably won't be of much help to Sister Shen."

After Lu Qianling finished speaking, the enthusiasm of the group instantly died down.

Guan Shanyue looked at the young people with eyes full of satisfaction.

After a moment, she gently comforted him, "Don't be discouraged. Strange abilities are mysterious and unpredictable. If they can weave this story into a ghost story, then erasing something from our history must be just as easy."

Besides, given Xingzhuo's abilities, she will definitely be able to extricate herself from the ghost story.

"But what I mean by this is not that you should rely on her completely and put a heavy burden on her."

"The situation will certainly change in the future."

Xingzhuo possesses exceptional abilities, making him unique among the ghost stories.

Not only do people from other countries dislike her, but even ghost stories and supernatural beings... probably won't be able to 'tolerate' her for much longer.

"This time, the chosen ones from multiple countries entered a strange tale together as a test. Perhaps soon, the strange tale will require multiple chosen ones from one country to enter simultaneously."

"You few, including the other citizens of my Tianxia, ​​have made progress that is beyond compare."

"It's not a question of whether we can help Xingzhuo now; the important thing is whether you can still be so quick-witted in the future when it comes to ghost stories."

Guan Shanyue spoke with deep sincerity.

The young people's eyes lit up.

A loud bang suddenly came from the sky.

The sound waves somehow crossed time and space and arrived in the real world, causing everyone in the command room to lose their balance and fall to the ground.

Li Hua, who was the most seriously injured, hit his head on the ground.

But before he could even process the dizziness, he saw Shen Xingzhuo and Hua Jiuyue being swept away by the "giant wave" in the sky!
