In the dense kelp forest outside the research base, the power of the ocean currents seems to be much weakened.
The flow of sea water therefore slowed down.
However, the stems and leaves of the seaweed can still be seen swaying gently with the flow of the sea water.
The slowed-down water flow passed through the outer protective net of the cargo fleet, and after being roughly screened, it passed through the protective net almost without stopping.
Like a breeze, it blew across the metal hull.
The seawater was not dangerous, so it easily passed through the screening of the protective net.
But now the situation is different for the ghouls who have entered the protective net.
It’s not that he was not in danger, but the protective net was breached without detecting the entry of danger.
To be precise, the psychic shield didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.
The space wormhole connected the sea water inside and outside the protective net. Zi Sui flashed and came into the protective net.
The spatial attribute is so violent that it is difficult for all races to master it, let alone use it skillfully.
Even if there are some geniuses picked out of a million who are lucky enough to obtain talents related to spatial energy.
Before they can fully grow into "towering trees", they will either die prematurely due to the violent energy of space, or be firmly controlled by the top leaders of various races.
Therefore, the leaders of all ethnic groups are accustomed to believing that no "retail investor" can control the energy of space as easily as they can.
How is this not considered a tacit understanding?
What's more, these protective nets can theoretically fix the spiritual energy within a certain range, indirectly making the nearby space tend to a stable state.
In a sense, it is also a kind of prevention against the space system.
However, Zi Sui's control over spatial energy cannot be matched by this half-hearted prevention.
The RC cells, which can tear off energy from spatial turbulence for their own evolution, have a ferocious adaptability to accommodate spatial energy.
They enable Zi Sui to accept, transform and utilize spatial energy well.
Naturally, it is possible to drive space energy to create a wormhole, bypassing the protective net without being discovered.
The psychic shield that the sea people were proud of was of no use, and the predator easily swam to the vicinity of the main ship.
Just as Zi Sui approached the main ship, his keen hearing caught the faint sound of conversation.
"This batch of materials should be enough for us to use for a while, thank you."
"You're welcome. They're all our own people. They're just some corpses."
Zi Sui approached the source of the sound and said, "Besides, I am just offering a gift to the Buddha."
As he got closer, he could hear it more clearly.
In addition to the conversation between the two sea creatures, there was also the sound of soldiers' footsteps and the collision of objects.
They must be unloading.
"Well, luckily you guys stopped by and dropped off some materials, otherwise we wouldn't be able to verify the data we just received."
"Speaking of which, how about that batch of data? Can it be used?"
"Yes, both data points are very good. The water gathering array can be further improved in the future."
"It's a pity for those researchers..."
The sound gradually became blurred, and the two sea creatures should have entered the cabin.
Zi Sui swam forward a little further and looked from a hidden angle. Sure enough, he saw teams of soldiers unloading goods.
There was a faint smell of blood coming from those cargo boxes, which was captured by Zi Sui's sensitive perception.
Most of those goods were prisoners who died during transportation.
According to their differential treatment of prisoners, the experimental subjects needed by the Second Research Institute should be healthy living people.
Therefore, these dead prisoners were just a loss to the Second Institute.
There is no point in keeping it, it will take up space and increase transportation risks.
But for the Third Research Institute, the materials they need to use don’t matter whether they live or die.
That's why the freight fleet made a special detour to stop here for a while.
The two sea creatures entered the cabin and came out shortly afterwards.
They all wore stiff white robes, similar to lab coats but with a more intricate design.
Zi Sui had read the researcher's memory and knew that it was also a kind of lab coat, used for going out.
The two sea creatures parted ways at the edge of the psychic shield. One of them watched the other go away for a distance before returning to the cabin.
Afterwards, the only people left in the open space were soldiers carrying goods.
Seeing that there was nothing else interesting to see, Zi Sui didn't stay any longer. Yu He moved to his side, and another space wormhole opened and closed.
The protective formation engraved on the hull was also useless, and Zi Sui entered the cabin of the main ship.
Next, all that was left was for the fleet to set sail again.
…
The focus turned to Chongming City.
At this moment, inside the former prime minister's mansion, Guan Xiangming was sitting in his study.
The interior decoration of this study is just like that of other dignitaries, with enamel goldware, antique murals, and ordinary luxury.
Only the family crests sketched on the walls showed some difference.
And these complex patterns now emit a faint light formed by the flow of spiritual energy.
Obviously, these are formations passed down from generation to generation by the housekeeper, which have now isolated the study from the outside world.
Guan Baozhu sat in the master's study, which she seldom visited, and waited quietly and obediently for the master's orders.
"Yeah, that's fine."
Guan Xiangming saw that the formation was functioning normally, so he signaled to his daughter that she could speak.
Guan Baozhu nodded and gave a brief report in a clear voice.
"Master, the Second Prince needs to contact the Second Research Institute to reshape his body."
Guan Xiangming was not surprised by this.
Because this is an expected development.
He simply said calmly, "I'll have someone introduce you to the Second Research Institute."
Guan Baozhu was stunned for a moment, and then her face suddenly turned pale.
"You...are not going to take action, are you, father?"
Guan Xiangming looked at her, with regret and guilt evident in his eyes, but his tone was calm and without any ripples.
"Baozhu, you are the Second Prince's wife, it is reasonable for you to do it."
Guan Baozhu lowered her eyes to hide her sadness and fear, and when she opened them again, she had turned back into the calm and dignified Second Prince's Consort Guan.
"I understand, Patriarch."
The second prince has fallen into a state of decline, and the steward cannot just hang himself on the tree.
However, they had no intention of offending the prince whose defeat had not yet been confirmed.
Therefore, they could only indirectly help her, this pearl that had been tied to the chariot of the Second Prince's party.
The conversation ended quickly, and the study magic circle activated with a large amount of precious resources was shut down.
Guan Baozhu came and went in a hurry.
He got into an ordinary carriage without any coat of arms and left through the butler's back door.
The carriage she was in did not return directly to the Dragon Palace, but took a long detour.
It was also deliberately exposed under the glass street lights in some stores frequented by wealthy ladies.
After a while, he slowly returned to the Dragon Palace.
