The three-time consecutive Best Actress winner, terminally ill, returns to the underworld. To her surprise, the underworld forces her to enter a collection of books to resolve the grievances of num...
Unfortunately, she couldn't remember which day the document indicated the incident occurred, so she couldn't be sure if it was today.
The chemistry lab class seemed to pass by peacefully.
The self-study period seemed peaceful. During this time, the principal summoned two vice principals and three grade leaders to the principal's office for a meeting. They were speaking a language that Chu Nian couldn't understand at all, presumably their native tongue.
In Chen Zhao's office, Lou Qianzong was translating their conversation.
Principal: "I have successfully implanted my children into the bodies of these children in the school, and tonight I want them to be truly born."
He said the seeds had already entered the children's bodies, and all the students must have been infected, but... Lou Qianzong looked at Chen Zhao with a bit of helplessness. He didn't find anything abnormal in the students' bodies.
Chen Zhao simply gestured for him to continue translating.
Chemistry teacher: "Are we setting off tonight? When will our ship arrive?"
Vice Principal 1: "I have been notified that the ship will arrive in about two hours."
Vice Principal 2: "Finally, we can leave here. Back then, the astronauts here brought my father..." He looked at the principal, who nodded to him, "from our home planet to this place. They thought Earth would be a prosperous planet, but they never expected it to be a technologically backward wasteland filled with exhaust fumes and where humans are also quite incompetent."
Principal: "However, I have finally lived up to His Majesty's expectations and obtained all the information about this abandoned planet. With you children also included, His Majesty will surely be very pleased to see this."
The head of the second-year high school group said, "It's a pity that there are only a few thousand teachers and students in the school. It would be even better if we could take more Earthlings with us."
The principal said, "These bodies are enough for our research. Moreover, we can use these bodies to clone more humans, making it easier for our descendants to continue indefinitely."
...
Lou Qianzong asked Chen Zhaodao, "It seems the principal has already planted the seed in all the teachers and students. What should we do?"
Chen Zhao: "If the seed of the Lake Star cannot grow and grow within three days in the host body, it will die automatically."
Lou Qianzong: "The one that inhibits the growth of the Lexian seeds..." He hesitated for a moment, "...snake venom?!"
Chen Zhao asked somewhat uncertainly, "Isn't that too risky?"
Lou Qianzong: "A little. Moreover, if the principal takes the initiative to awaken those seeds with the power of his fathers, the effect of the snake venom will be weakened."
Chen Zhao: "That's not a good way to put it!"
Lou Qianzong sighed helplessly, "Sigh, these ordinary people's bodies are just too fragile. We can't even administer strong medicine. It's such a hassle."
Chen Zhao: "And I'm also worried about what will happen if the principal and the others find out that the teachers and students refuse to go to Planet Lake with them?"
Lou Qianzong pondered for a moment and said, "Since they were all seeds sown by the principal, let's just kill the principal. The seeds that didn't mature will naturally be useless. As for the remaining three mature ones, let's kill them too; as for the two semi-mature ones, we'll try to save them if we can, and if we can't..."
At this point, he suddenly noticed something unusual happening in the principal's office: the principal had placed his hands on the heads of the two vice-principals, and energy was flowing from his hands into their skulls.
Lou Qianzong: "Well, these two semi-finished beings are now mature beings. I guess they are afraid that something might change along the way, or that a powerful figure might interfere with their plans, so they want to increase their strength to its maximum before the plan begins in full."
Chen Zhao pondered for a moment and asked, "What percentage of your full power can you unleash here?"
Lou Qianzong's lips twitched, and he whispered, "Less than one-tenth."
Chen Zhao: "I knew it, you can't use your full strength at all. Neither can I..."
"What kind of crappy time machine do you have?" Lou Qianzong bristled at the mention of it. "It took me my entire life to get it started. Didn't it also take you a lot of effort to send those two AIs here?"
Chen Zhao said helplessly, "They are energy beings, much lighter than you and me, so I didn't need to lift a finger to bring them here." He paused, then added, "I told you not to touch this machine, why did you insist on coming along?"
Lou Qianzong: "You've been trying so hard to get rid of me, how could I let you have your way?"
Chen Zhao: "We're both practically useless now, how are we supposed to fight against several mature members of the Lake Star?"
Lou Qianzong: "Yi Nian can be used too!"
Chen Zhao hurriedly said, "No, we can't involve her." After thinking for a moment, he quickly called Geng Qiu and asked him and Zhang Chi to pick up Chu Nian and take her home.
Lou Qianzong immediately said sourly, "You're being too biased! Why can she go home while I have to stay here and fight monsters with you?"
Chen Zhao: "You can leave too."
Lou Qianzong backed down immediately and stopped arguing.
During the entire self-study period, the principal's office was busy with a meeting; in the logistics director's office, Chen Zhao and Lou Qianzong were busy discussing countermeasures; while Chu Nian was busy studying the brainwaves of the people in the principal's office.
Because they are extraterrestrials, their brainwaves differ greatly from those of Earthlings. After studying them for a while, Chu Nian discovered that the principal was "using his powers" on the two spores in the brains of the two vice-principals, and the spores in their brains began to germinate and grow rapidly.
Chu Nian sensed that the two people's brainwaves were gradually strengthening as the spores changed, and that this was also gradually increasing their control over their limbs. During this time, the vice-principal's own brain became nourishment, being absorbed by the spores.
Chu Nian tried to use his brainwave interference to disrupt the two people whose brainwaves were changing, and it felt somewhat similar to hacking into a computer.
The two vice-principals had matured, and the principal returned to his seat to continue discussing the plan with everyone in his native language.
The two vice principals, who had been listening attentively, suddenly leaped up and slapped the principal twice across the face, one on each side.
"Hmm, it actually works a bit!" Chu Nian felt that her experiment had succeeded and was quite proud and happy.
Then she controlled the two vice principals, one on each side, and they grabbed the principal's ears.
The principal was stunned for a moment after being slapped, then flew into a rage and shouted, "What are you two doing?"
The chemistry teacher exclaimed, "Stop! He's our father! How can you be so violent towards him?"
The principal remained motionless, his face stern, though his cheeks were flushed red.
Chu Nian discovered that he was using an electrical wave emitted from his brain to try to control the two vice principals. And the two vice principals did indeed behave for a moment.
The principal should have the ability to control his children, but because Chu Nian secretly "intervened" in the process of bringing the two vice principals to maturity, his control over the two vice principals failed.
The two vice principals were only quiet for a moment before starting to cause trouble again under Chu Nian's control, but this situation only lasted for a few seconds.
