Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Chapter 861: Chapter 861: The Woman Imprisoned in the Video

“Indeed, there is no conflict, but keep watching,” Lin Shen pointed to the luxurious room and said, “Look, the red wine that was drunk earlier has returned to its original place, and the bottle is still full. Earlier, the Smart Brain calculated that the video is three hours long. I checked the time just now, and from when I started watching, the video must have repeated around the three-hour mark. All the rooms repeat at this time.”

“That just proves my conjecture is correct then, all these videos are linked, and they’ve been playing synchronously all along,” Tian Xin said joyfully.

Lin Shen had been reasoning for a long time, only to prove that he was right.

“Correct, all the videos are synchronized, but if they are truly synchronized, why is the Mosaic Person in the fitness room? He should be in this room with the TV and game console right now,” Lin Shen pointed at the first room.

Tian Xin was momentarily stunned, “You mean to say, all the video content replayed, but this person didn’t return to before? Could you have seen it wrong, maybe it wasn’t the beginning of the content when you started watching?”

“I just said, I checked the time. The video repeats around three hours. Even if I didn’t start from the beginning, more than four hours have passed now, and I still haven’t seen any repetitive scenes that are the same as before,” Lin Shen said, checking his watch again.

“This…” Tian Xin suddenly felt a chill, his eyes complex as he looked at the Mosaic Person exercising in the fitness room with trembling voice, “Are you suggesting that this Mosaic Person is a ghost? A ghost that can travel through the video?”

“Whether he’s a ghost, I don’t know, but so far, I haven’t seen any repeated scenes,” Lin Shen said.

Tian Xin barely squeezed out an ugly smile, “Perhaps the Smart Brain made a mistake, the video is not just three hours, but has been maliciously edited. Yes, that must be it, someone is deliberately playing this trick to scare people.”

“Then let’s watch a bit longer,” Lin Shen sat on the sofa, staring at the video without blinking.

Though Tian Xin felt uneasy, he still believed his judgment was correct and sat there with Lin Shen, intently watching the video.

It was certain now, the videos were synchronized, and the Mosaic Person could freely move between the rooms.

As for how that was accomplished, if it wasn’t editing, then there must indeed be a ghost.

The two watched for a long time and discovered that the video indeed repeated every three hours. After three hours, everything in the room returned to its original state, except for the Mosaic Person, who remained unaffected.

“Holy crap, what in the world is this thing?” Tian Xin felt like pulling out the storage device and smashing it.

Regardless of what was inside, if they destroyed the storage device, it should kill him, right?

“Do you get the feeling that he’s like a prisoner?” Lin Shen suddenly said.

Tian Xin was slightly startled, “A prisoner?”

Tian Xin turned his gaze to the Mosaic Person in the video, thought carefully for a moment, then slapped his thigh, “That’s exactly it. This person keeps moving around in these rooms, and all the doors connect to each other, but there’s no exit.”

The more he spoke, the brighter his eyes became, “Does this mean, someone used these video rooms to trap this Mosaic Person inside?”

Lin Shen nodded, that was what he was suggesting.

As the two were discussing, they saw the Mosaic Person suddenly go berserk, grabbing a nearby exercise bike and lifting it with one hand to smash it against the wall.

Though there was no sound, the explosive sensation of the wall being smashed open in a big hole clearly conveyed the Mosaic Person’s agitation.

Lin Shen and Tian Xin then witnessed a shocking scene. Instead of other rooms or corridors, the broken wall revealed nothing but shifting colorful squares, the entire hole was Mosaic.

The Mosaic Person, like a madman, grabbed everything he could and started destroying the room, quickly turning it into a complete mess.

The smashed walls all had holes filled with Mosaic.

After wrecking one room, the Mosaic Person, still not satisfied, went through the door to another room and almost destroyed it as well.

But once these room walls were broken, the outside was all Mosaic; there was nothing but Mosaic.

One side of the luxurious room had floor-to-ceiling windows that offered views of the cityscape outside, presumably from a high floor of a building.

But when the Mosaic Person smashed those windows, the cityscape disappeared; behind the broken glass was more Mosaic.

Lin Shen and Tian Xin watched, their eyes widening and feeling increasingly uneasy.

The Mosaic Person destroyed everything in one go, his hysterical demeanor was definitely not an act.

After smashing all the rooms, the Mosaic Person slumped to the floor, then took a deep breath.

Suddenly, where the video had been silent as if watching a mime, a woman’s voice emerged.

“Others may get angry, but I won’t; who would have their way if I got angry? Others may get angry, but I won’t; only by angering my enemies will I feel relieved…” The woman’s voice transitioned from angry and fierce to calm, the process somewhat slow.

Once she had completely calmed down, the woman’s murmuring voice rang out again, “It must be some form of World Law. The Ancient Realm King is the ruler of World Law, and he should already be dead. Without being at the level of the Realm King, how could they trap me? It shouldn’t be possible…”

Lin Shen and Tian Xin looked at each other in alarm. What exactly the Ancient Realm King’s Law was is still debated to this day; some say it’s of Space, others say Time, and the theories vary widely.

This woman claimed that the Ancient Realm King’s Law is the World Law, a theory unheard of before, and it was unknown whether she spoke truth or falsehood.

World Law might be even rarer than Time Law and Space Law; Lin Shen had so far only seen Xiangdong, an Immortal of World Law.

Looking at this woman’s situation, it seemed quite likely she was trapped in some kind of World Law.

“No… No… it’s said that the Ancient Realm King had long since died… even if he hadn’t died… his World Law could only trap me temporarily… It couldn’t possibly trap me here forever…” the woman began to write and draw on the ground with her fingers.
