The roots of the Conjugate Whispering tree automatically separated from Cheng Shi's body due to the loss of nutrients and shrank back into the void crack.

The scholar, who had been full of expectations, looked at the growth curve that had reached its peak on the screen in front of him with a look of horror on his face.

He couldn't believe all this. He couldn't believe that the inferences that had been passed down in the department for hundreds of years were messed up in his hands.

He pressed a button tremblingly, and as the alarm sounded, the surrounding glass curtain walls dropped all at once.

The lush branches and leaves, free from restraint, immediately stretched out and spread towards the laboratory.

The swaying branches made a rustling sound, like a baby who had just learned to walk, and "staggered" to the front of the scholar, hugging him with vines and leaves.

And the great scholar, the moment he reached out and touched these leaves, burst into tears!

Wrong.

He was wrong, the void matter-energy system was wrong, and the tower of matter-physics was also wrong.

No one knew that this experiment had no results.

No one knew that a dream that had been maintained for more than five hundred years would not come to an end.

No, maybe someone knows.

No, it should be said that God knows.

Maybe they knew all this a long time ago, but they never reminded us.

Cheng Shi finally understood why [Truth] had never protected His believers in history, because He had long known that research on the void matter-energy system would produce no results.

Nothingness and Existence will not allow Civilization to seize Their authority.

Of course, Truth is also cold enough.

He watched his followers working like clowns for more than five hundred years, but he never gave them a single reminder.

Perhaps, in His eyes, these “fools” who are unaware and do not reflect on themselves are not worthy of His attention, nor do they deserve His guidance.

But why did He use the script of "fate" in this trial to show His believers an ending without an ending?

Be merciful?

Get rid of regrets?

The exact details are unknown.

He looked at the great scholar who was crying loudly, and only one sentence came to his mind, which was what Kwei had just said:

"He is merciful. He wants to use this method to allow me to complete the last step of the experiment myself."

Haha, He is indeed “merciful”.

He used this method to allow the great scholar to personally pierce the illusion that had lasted for more than 500 years, and let him realize:

I, my predecessors, my teachers, my students, all the scholars who have devoted their entire lives to this, are all fools.

How ironic.

His mercy was to make his followers, who had disappeared into history, recognize the fact that they had completely gone astray in their pursuit of the Truth!

The word "cruel" is not enough to describe His indifference.

This reminded Cheng Shi of another sentence:

Truth is an eternal and unchanging law without any emotion.

And this is also the best portrayal of what Cheng Shi currently understands about Him.

There were a thousand thoughts in his mind and his expression was complicated and ugly.

Cheng Shi looked at the "empty" conjugate whispering in front of him, looked at the great scholar who was crying and wailing and almost fainting, and sighed heavily.

"Now, there are no more flowers, no more fruits, no more compromises, I...

It’s almost gone.

Great scholar, can I ask you one last question?

If I take the leaves of Conjugate Whisper back, do you think they can function the same as petals?"

Kwei was half lying on the ground, holding the branch in his arms, and he could no longer hear any sound.

With blurry eyes he looked up at the dome canopy, and seemed to see, at the highest point of the conjugate whisper, a flower flowing with the colorful colors of reality blooming.

When he blinked again, the colorful petals had withered, and beneath the withered petals, a transparent fruit mixed with mottled black light was condensing.

The scholar smiled with satisfaction.

“Look…look…it’s blooming!

It worked!

That is the fruit of [nothingness] borne by the flower of [existence]!

We are not wrong!

Look! Look!

Our experiment is correct!"

Cheng Shi looked in the direction of Kewei's finger and saw that above the boundless green "sky", there had never been a single [existing] flower, nor had there ever been a single [nonexistent] fruit...

Haha, crazy.

He sneered and looked down at Kwei, only to see that the last great scholar of the Void Matter and Energy Department had passed away at some point.

But his eyes did not close.

There was a satisfied smile on his face, and his raised arm was pointing directly at the Conjugate Whisper that he loved most and for which he had devoted his whole life...

It has never drooped.

No one knew that the key to the high wall of true knowledge was actually the life of the great scholar Kwei.

The moment he died, countless Death Knell Knights who were rushing outside the high walls cheered and roared as they rushed into this "impregnable" void fortress.

Countless scholars stood on the suspended walkways, neither panicked by the enemy's invasion nor afraid of the death of their companions. They just stood there and watched.

Looking at the laboratory at the top of the experimental field, watching the growth curve of the giant tree on the ubiquitous display screen reach its peak and begin to decline, watching the conjugated whisper that should have blossomed and borne fruit but did not change at all...

One by one, they were like soul-destroying walking corpses, with no hope in their eyes anymore.

"Impossible! This is impossible!"

"Why? How could it be wrong?!"
