Chapter 2241 - 2234: Eno’s Persuasion

Inside the spaceship, everything has been treated to prevent space jumps. After all, if this limitation wasn’t applied during battles, if a strong opponent directly entered the ship and damaged the internal facilities, wouldn’t it be a waste?

Zhang Menglong tiptoed out of his room, wanting to move to the external space of the spaceship, but at this time he unexpectedly encountered Captain Eno.

"Mr. Zhang, it’s so late, where are you going?" Eno was holding a book, surprisingly sitting outside the spaceship reading.

Of course, this activity space outside the spaceship is also protected by an energy field to maintain space stability, otherwise, under curvature drive operation, people would have been stretched into infinitely long ribbons.

"You really are a scholar, reading here at such a late hour." Zhang Menglong didn’t expect to meet her here.

"It’s a habit, I like to find a quiet place to read," Eno appraised Zhang Menglong from head to toe and then showed a playful smile, "Mr. Zhang seems to want to leave the spaceship, doesn’t he?"

"You’ve found me out," Zhang Menglong didn’t lie, "This Xiake is really unreliable, reported this matter to the Soul Hunter department, and the trouble will be mine. I don’t want to accept any investigation; it wastes my precious time."

"Hahaha," Eno didn’t expect Zhang Menglong to be so honest and directly expressed his thoughts.

"You don’t want to keep me here, do you?" Zhang Menglong laughed, "But don’t waste your efforts, Captain."

"I don’t have that intention," Eno laughed, "Mr. Zhang is not a person of the Moruo Holy Nation, and frankly, there’s nothing on this ship to make you stay. We’re just a bunch of strangers suddenly gathered together."

"The captain is quite insightful," Zhang Menglong said, "But please talk to Mr. Xiake on my behalf."

Although Xiake is thoughtless, he cared for Zhang Menglong quite thoroughly along the way, answering every question Zhang Menglong presented without any reservations, possibly just wanting fame?

"Actually, Mr. Zhang doesn’t necessarily need to rush to leave," Eno called out to Zhang Menglong once more.

"Captain means..."

"Is Mr. Zhang worried that the investigation will bring you many troubles?"

"Exactly."

"Actually, Mr. Zhang is overthinking it. If you connect with the Soul Hunter department, they might not only refrain from causing you trouble but could possibly provide you with unexpected help!"

"Oh?" This statement made Zhang Menglong hesitate.

This time he came to the Moruo Holy Nation to investigate the relationship between the Quantum Ghost and Ancient Humans, and now there are some clues. The next step is to follow these clues for further investigation.

But his strength alone is limited. If he could leverage the power of the entire Moruo Holy Nation, it may be twice as effective with half the effort.

"Does Captain Eno know this department well?" Zhang Menglong asked.

"More than just knowing, I used to be in this department," Eno laughed, "Of course, back then the department wasn’t called by this name; it was called the Research Department of Non-Natural Phenomena, specializing in studying things difficult to explain by science. I joined because of some specialty."

Zhang Menglong understood Eno’s specialty at that time; her Sixth Sense sensitivity far exceeded that of ordinary people.

The Sixth Sense is an innate ability that doesn’t strengthen with life levels evolution or soul power enhancement. The ability to perceive the existence of Quantum Ghosts already proves this.

Many times, the Sixth Sense has a certain effect. Clearly, the Research Department of Non-Natural Phenomena valued this ability in Eno, attracting her to join.

"The leader of the Soul Hunter department is a very shrewd and wise person," Eno said, "If I were a sensible person, I wouldn’t possibly bother you, nor would I want to study how to deal with Quantum Ghosts through you. This would only incur your resentment. If it led to losing a chance to deal with Quantum Ghosts, I think that would be sad."

"If I were him, I would choose to cooperate with you, even give you significant authority, possibly even let you lead the entire Soul Hunter department’s operations."

Seeing Zhang Menglong showing a hesitant expression, Eno continued, "I think Mr. Zhang came to our Moruo Holy Nation with a purpose. Now, the Soul Hunter department is almost the most powerful and resource-rich department in the Moruo Holy Nation. Through this channel, it should be able to help you."

"You seem to be persuading me to stay." Zhang Menglong smiled.

"After all, I am a person of this nation. My starting point is for this nation’s benefit. I don’t want Mr. Zhang’s misunderstanding to cause our nation to lose a chance to resolve this crisis."

"How do you know my purpose won’t negatively impact your nation?"

"It won’t," Eno laughed.

"Is it your Sixth Sense?"

"Sort of!"

"Alright, you’ve successfully convinced me," Zhang Menglong has dismissed the idea of running away; now, under these circumstances, cooperating with the Soul Hunter department is the best choice. Zhang Menglong might be able to investigate the relationship between Quantum Ghosts and Ancient Humans in the shortest possible time.

Zhang Menglong returned to his room. At this time, Gou Dan told Zhang Menglong that there has been progress in the research on Quantum Ghosts!

Hearing this news, Zhang Menglong eagerly entered the Super God Academy, seeing that group of scientists smiling at him as if anticipating his reaction.

"Is there a result?" Zhang Menglong asked.

"There are some stage results," Newton replied, "Although we currently can’t create a weapon to destroy this quantum life, we’ve managed to capture their traces using high-tech instruments."

"Oh?" Zhang Menglong’s eyes lit up.

If they can capture the movement trajectories of Quantum Ghosts, it indicates they’ve some conclusions about this life form.

When some basic research encounters breakthrough progress, other studies become a matter of time.

Like when humans invented gunpowder, developing bullets and artillery were just a matter of time.

Humans discovered nuclear fission, making nuclear bombs became a matter of time.

"What needs to be done?" Zhang Menglong asked.

"Just need a pair of glasses," Newton said, putting on a seemingly ordinary pair of glasses, "Dean, you can start mimicking the Quantum Ghost."

Zhang Menglong immediately completed the quantum mimicry and performed a piece called Iron Mountain Lean.

"Dean, your practice duration is at most two and a half months; you should watch more of Tom’s videos," said Newton.

"You really can see?" From this sentence, Zhang Menglong knew they really succeeded, "Is this thing difficult to produce?"

"The principle is complicated, but once we made the first pair, it means mass production won’t be an issue."

"Great!" Zhang Menglong showed a satisfied smile, "Next, help me figure out how to eliminate them when these creatures enter the quantum state. If you achieve this, I’ll give you a one-month vacation where you can play outside the Super God Academy at will!"
