"In the sea of nothingness, all things become extinct and gradually move toward nothingness, but nothingness itself is the greatest treasure house. Because of nothingness, it is infinite."
Luo Cheng was holding an old notebook in his hand and was carefully reading the dense contents written on it.
The gentle music at the bar did not soothe the heart of Pluto behind him at all.
He looked at the notebook with very complicated emotions in his eyes.
However, this complexity quickly subsided.
He didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong, but no matter what, there was no turning back now.
Luo Cheng didn't wait long, and Lu Bai's figure soon appeared in Qingba.
Luo Cheng also sincerely put away the things in his hands and stood up to greet Lu Bai.
Then he clapped his hands, and all the guests around him, as well as the bartenders and other staff, immediately left the venue in an orderly manner without any expression.
Lu Bai was still a little surprised when he saw this scene.
Because he could feel that these people were not controlled by any special abilities, whether mentally or physically.
But this also happens to illustrate Luo Cheng's power.
In a relatively hostile city, such a stronghold was quietly established and many seemingly unrelated people were placed here.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
Those people each have their own identities and professions. They only come to this bar occasionally. Through their different intersections, they turn this place into a 'normal' place.
He can also give orders and prohibitions when Luo Cheng needs it.
I have to say that this is still very difficult.
It takes a long time to operate.
The other party showed this level of relationship in front of him. On the one hand, it was sincerity, telling you that there is absolutely no problem with my arrangement here, and he also trusted you to help keep the secret.
On the other hand, it was used to exert pressure and oppress Lu Bai by showing his own strength.
Any such little thought is consistent with Lu Bai's previous judgment about Luo Cheng.
He seems to be upright and honest, but in fact he has never escaped from the darkness. All his "generousness" is based on his own advantage.
So it seems to be full of sincerity and extraordinary, but in fact, as long as you dig deeper, you can clearly understand the pettiness of the other party.
It's as if the other party doesn't really have the ability, but has to rely on means to show his ability at all times.
However, judging from the situation of these people and the Pluto who was half-incited to rebel, Luo Cheng should be quite capable.
Most of the time, means and abilities are the same thing, but many times they are not.
Some people are good at doing things and have strong work ability, but their means are average.
Some people have good means and can take the initiative to create opportunities, but when opportunities come, their abilities are not enough.
Luo Cheng's situation seems a bit special. He is quite capable, but his methods tend to be sinister. Behind the seemingly grandeur, he is just a scheming and petty person.
It seems that this guy's early experience was quite interesting. Ability depends on talent and learning ability, while means depends on experience and personality habits.
Only when the ability is insufficient, people will develop the habit of using clandestine means. Luo Cheng is capable enough, but uses such methods, which shows that he was probably suppressed in terms of ability in his early years, and his self-confidence was hit.
Luo Cheng still didn't know that just through some small things, Lu Bai could gradually analyze the color of his underwear.
He came to the bar himself, poured two glasses of wine, and made an invitation gesture to Lu Bai.
As Lu Bai sat down, he slowly said: "Mr. Lu Bai, do you want to hear a story?"
"All ears!" Lu Bai naturally would not refuse.
"More than twenty years ago, I had just graduated. I was still very young, but I still had some talent, so I joined a relatively well-known research institute at the time."
"Yongchuan?" Lu Bai seemed to remember something and asked.
"Well, Yongchuan." Luo Cheng's eyes were filled with light, as if he was remembering something.
"At that time, the entire world was in an energy crisis, with various extreme weather conditions and frequent natural disasters."
"So gradually a rumor began to spread."
"The end of the world in 2012."
"However, as time passed and the end did not come, that kind of rumor was regarded as a joke, gave up, and turned to focus on the increasingly serious international situation."
"But has Mr. Lu ever thought that the end has not come yet, but that a savior just happened to appear and save the world?"
Luo Cheng's words were full of sadness.
"According to Mr. Luo, preventing this apocalypse is related to the Yongchuan Research Institute." Lu Bai understood the meaning of the other party's words.
"Sure enough, Mr. Lu is a smart man." Luo Cheng did not continue to brag about business, but continued to talk about what happened back then: "The savior back then was the leading researcher of the institute, and he was also one of my senior brothers. His name Now that he has been banned, few people still remember him.”
After a brief pause, Luo Cheng said the person's name: "Yue Sheng!"
Lu Bai noticed that as Luo Cheng said the name, Pluto, not far behind him, instinctively clenched his fists.
"Yue Sheng..." Lu Bai murmured and repeated. If he guessed correctly, this Yue Sheng is Qiu Mo's father. Of course, Qiu Mo's name is probably a pseudonym. Just remove the bottom of the mountain and the character Yue becomes The word Qiu.
The savior symbol he got from the bottom of the netherworld also belonged to Yue Sheng.
This person is probably the "Heavenly Man" of this dimension. He successfully prevented the end of the world, developed the zero-point energy of the void, and prevented international tensions.
All the prosperity that Lu Bai saw before his eyes was inseparable from this man's efforts.
"Senior brother is a very talented person. He led us to study the zero-point energy of the void. Through the application of this energy, we successfully solved the doomsday."
"The prototype of the escort was also successfully established at that time."
"It's a pity that with the establishment of the escort team, senior brother gradually discovered some problems."
"That means there is a risk if the Void Zero Point exists."
"Void monster?" Lu Bai, as a good listener, would naturally pick up the topic raised by the other party and guide him.
"That's right." Luo Cheng nodded, picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "Void Zero Point Energy is used to break the balance of a place called the 'Sea of Nothingness' to extract the corresponding energy."
"But it's like a string. If you pull it and make it no longer balanced, there will be a reaction force to correct its position."
"The Void Monster is this corrective force!" Luo Cheng told the inside story about the Zero Point Energy of the Void: "They are envoys sent by the Sea of Void, and their purpose is to recover the Zero Point Energy of the Void."
Lu Bai also showed shock at the right time.
The situation was similar to what he had guessed.
It's not that the application of void zero point energy will produce void monsters, but as long as this thing exists, there will always be corresponding void monsters.
So Lu Bai quickly discovered the loopholes in the zero-point energy of the void.
That is, this thing is energy, and there are many places where this energy is used consumptively.
This kind of consumption does not return it, but uses it in other places, which means that the corresponding correction force has not been calmed down.
And as the zero point energy of the void is consumed, this correction force is accumulating more and more.
"It seems you understand." Luo Cheng sighed and said: "In this case, senior brother chose a prudent approach. He wants to gradually stop the application of void zero point energy."
"It's a pity that at that time, everyone valued the dividends that Void Zero Point could bring. Even I was immersed in the joy of having sufficient energy, and I was confused about stopping the application of this energy."
"Soon after, it was said that senior brother wanted to monopolize the zero-point energy of the void. While asking others to stop using this energy, he was secretly studying the further application of the zero-point energy of the void."
"The person who spread the news is none other than senior brother's former lover, who is now the city lord of Lanyue City."
"The person who gave the fatal blow was the person that Senior Brother trusted most back then, his disciple, and now the world-famous guard captain - Tide."
"He produced evidence that his senior brother secretly studied void zero-point energy, and testified that many of the awards that belonged to his senior brother were academic misappropriations of his research results."
"The majority of the Guard came forward to testify."
"For a time, all the senior brothers rebelled against each other, and countless people abused and criticized him."
"I didn't believe it at all and went to see my senior brother. However, he was already injured and looked very strange. After giving me his notebook, he asked me to follow his instructions and leave Rencang as soon as possible."
"Not long after I ran out, I heard that an accident had happened in Rencang, and my senior brother died in that accident."
"Then all parties began to block senior brother's past deeds and banned the dissemination of all information about him. All existing information was also recycled and destroyed."
"Relying on the notes given by my senior brother, I successfully obtained the method of extracting zero-point energy from the void, and used it to join a city at that time, and gradually became its master. I also renamed it Luo Yue City, in order to remember my senior brother."
Luo Cheng talked about what happened that year, and then took out a notebook in his hand.
"Back then, senior brother was indeed secretly studying void zero-point energy. However, I later learned from my notebook that senior brother was not studying applications, but studying how to balance the cost of correction power."
"To prevent the doomsday disaster that will eventually come."
"Doomsday disaster?" Lu Bai showed an interesting smile, because when he said the doomsday disaster, Luo Cheng's eyes were looking at him.
"The doomsday of 2012 was just postponed, and this doomsday is also closely related to the source of zero-point energy in the void, the Sea of Void."
"Senior brother once predicted in his notes that with the extensive use of void zero-point energy, the suppressed doomsday will emerge again."
"The key to stopping it is that it does not belong to the zero point energy of the void."
"And this is also the key to me finding you."
