The spirit in the subspace was only a vague energy form. It was difficult to tell what the spirit looked like from its facial features, but from her clothing and body shape, it was not difficult to see that it was a pregnant woman.
The pregnant woman's spirit half-knelt on the ground, cut open the abdomen of a human superpower with a knife, and took out a child from inside. The child was covered in blood, his limbs were stiff, and he looked like he was dead. The spirit cut the umbilical cord, laid the child flat on the ground, then raised his hand and took out a ball of light the size of a baby's fist from his bulging abdomen, and put it into the baby's body. After a while, the child who was taken out of the mother's belly without making any sound and looked like he was dead suddenly moved, his stiff limbs trembled in panic, and his little mouth opened, making a loud cry.
The spirit stretched out her hand to embrace the child, but as soon as her hand touched the child, she retracted it, as if she was afraid of something. Then, she untied her cloak, as if she wanted to wrap the newborn baby with it, but as soon as she leaned down, her body suddenly scattered like a dandelion blown by the wind, and fell to the ground. Only a green energy stone fell from the air, and fell on the crying baby together with the cloak. And the green energy stone happened to fall on the baby's kicking calf, forming a green birthmark in the shape of a fallen leaf.
"Look, there's a child here."
The video ends here. The person filming stopped filming when he noticed someone appeared. This person filming was Tang Tianyuan.
The moment he watched the video, Chen Chu knew that he was the child, because he had the same birthmark on his calf as the baby in the video. After he awakened his superpowers and knew about the existence of the subspace, someone told him about his life experience. He was a child picked up from the subspace by an official superpower. His mother was sucked into the subspace when she was about to give birth. She was attacked by a spirit and died soon, so she chose to perform a caesarean section to save her son. He was lucky. His cry at birth alarmed an official superpower passing by, and he was successfully brought out.
Because of this background, Chen Chu has a natural liking for official supernatural beings and a natural hostility towards the spirits of the subspace. He lived like this for 19 years, and suddenly one day, someone told him that he was not actually an earthling, but a spirit of the subspace. Chen Chu couldn't accept it, and he refuted Tang Tianyuan.
"This is not true. I am an Earthling. That spirit, that spirit may just be saving me." Chen Chu said.
"Yes, she is saving you, as a mother is saving her own child. She put her own child's soul into the body of this baby, and she helped you take over this child." Tang Tianyuan said.
"Impossible! The spirits in the subspace cannot leave the subspace." Chen Chu said.
"Before I saw this scene, I didn't believe it either, but what is the truth? The fact is that they cannot leave in the form of spirits, but they can leave by taking over another body." Tang Tianyuan said.
"Impossible. If it is possible to leave by possessing another body, then spirits from the sub-dimension would have come out over the years. Why haven't the authorities discovered it?" Chen Chu said.
"Then how do you explain that a child who had been dead for a long time suddenly came back to life? The pregnant woman died on the first day she entered Hurricane City, and you were born on the third day." Tang Tianyuan asked, "How do you explain that a top-level S-class spirit, a high-level spirit that has awakened self-awareness, would save a child from another world under such circumstances? There is only one possibility, because she was saving her own child. She wanted her child to leave the subspace, go to another world, and become a flesh-and-blood person."
"If it wasn't her child, why did she disperse her spirit and melt her energy stone into your bones and blood, turning it into your birthmark? If you weren't her child, why did you awaken your wind ability? If she wasn't your mother, why after her death, there were no more S-level spirits in the S-level Hurricane City? The spatial level was also reduced from S-level to A-level? If you weren't her child, why did she sacrifice herself completely?! And you, why is your energy affinity so high, especially in the subspace? Have you never thought about these?"
Chen Chu was speechless after being asked one after another by Tang Tianyuan. The spirits in the subspace were like NPCs in the game, and they were intelligent NPCs. The only difference between them and the supernatural beings on Earth was that they only lived in the past and would never have new memories. Every time the subspace was closed and restarted, the memories of these spirits would be reset. Those spirits that were killed would also be refreshed.
But some spirits are unexpected.
In countless explorations, Earth's superpowers have discovered that in some high-level subspaces, there are some high-level spirits. They are like the self-aware artificial intelligence in the game world. They are powerful and difficult to kill. No matter how many times the subspace is refreshed, they will have a persistent memory. These high-level spirits are the biggest threat to superpowers entering the subspace. They have no reason and no possibility to save Earth's superpowers unless they have a purpose.
What made Chen Chu feel guilty at the time was that he had just come out of the Soul Locking Tower. Before he left, the high priest told him that if he wanted to remove the curse on him, he had to help him leave the subspace. Therefore, he knew better than anyone that high-level spirits could leave the subspace.
When the high priest threatened him, Chen Chu thought that even if he died, he would never let the spirits from the subspace invade the earth. But now, he is the invader? How ironic! How he was on guard against the high priest at that time, and how the supernatural people on earth will be on guard against him when his identity is exposed.
Chen Chu withdrew his thoughts and looked at Tang Tianyuan: "Actually, I'm not afraid of you reporting me at all."
Tang Tianyuan frowned and looked at Chen Chu.
Chen Chu: "Even if I am a visitor from the sub-space, what about you? As someone who has always known the secret, why didn't you tell me? What is your intention?"
Tang Tianyuan sneered: "What are you talking about? When did I know the secret all along? I just happened to find such a video not long ago, in the hands of a wild superpowered person you killed."
Chen Chu chuckled. What was wrong with him? He knew that Tang Tianyuan was no longer the "upright" teacher he used to be, but he still felt that he should still have a sense of shame. "You're right. You could have discovered this video by accident. But have you forgotten..."
Chen Chu looked at Tang Tianyuan with a smile: "Teacher, I am now strong enough to rival you."
Tang Tianyuan's pupils shrank. He had watched Chen Chu grow up since he was a child. He claimed to know Chen Chu very well. He had seen the immature Chen Chu, the innocent Chen Chu, the happy Chen Chu, the angry Chen Chu, the lost Chen Chu, but he had never seen Chen Chu like this. For no reason, Tang Tianyuan remembered what the team members had said.
"Everyone says Chen Chu has a good temper, but that's because you haven't seen him kill anyone. He would just look at you with a smile, and then in the blink of an eye, you'd be dead. I'm traumatized by Chen Chu's smile now."
At that time, Tang Tianyuan was curious about what kind of smile that was, and at this moment he saw it.
Tang Tianyuan: "Are you threatening me?"
Chen Chu: "Teacher, I don't want to break up with you, really. Although I don't want to admit it, you taught me a lot in my youth, so if you need help, I'm happy to help you. But please don't challenge my bottom line again and again, I'm afraid that one day I won't be able to hold it anymore and do something that will destroy both of us."
Chen Chu was reminding Tang Tianyuan that he was also an S-level psychic, and it was not easy to kill an S-level psychic. If he got mad one day, even if the system couldn't punish him, Chen Chu wouldn't mind doing it himself.
Tang Tianyuan understood what Chen Chu meant, and was shocked in his heart, but on the surface he looked indifferent: "You think you can hurt me?"
Chen Chu knew Tang Tianyuan too well. If he was really fearless, he would definitely continue to provoke him. The fact that Tang Tianyuan did not do so meant that his threat was effective.
Chen Chu did not continue to provoke Tang Tianyuan, and dragged the topic back: "Let's talk about the geography map. I brought the geography map back. If you need someone to take it to the subspace, I can do it."
Seeing that Chen Chu had taken the initiative to change the subject, Tang Tianyuan also brought up the geography map: "That's indeed what the research institute is planning. Now the authorities are looking for a sub-space entrance that fits the timeline. Once the place is determined, you will immediately take the geography map and the space ability user will take you there."
Chen Chu: "When will the space ability user come?"
Tang Tianyuan glanced at him and said, "You don't think that the people at the headquarters don't know about Lin Yan's situation, do you?"
Chen Chu's eyes moved, and he confirmed: "Let Lin Yan take me there?"
Tang Tianyuan: "Although Lin Yan's ability has a single function, her speed is no problem, and you are the main force this time, she is just a supplement."
Tang Tianyuan changed the subject: "What if this method doesn't work?"
Chen Chu suddenly looked up.
Tang Tianyuan said slowly: "You can handle it yourself when the time comes."
Chen Chu frowned: "What do you mean?"
Tang Tianyuan: "The authorities have already issued a statement that they will never transfer the risk of the geo-vein map, so you know better than anyone what the consequences will be if the geo-vein map cannot be sent to the sub-space. When the time comes, the geo-vein map will be in your hands, and you can do whatever you want with it, since you brought it back anyway."
After saying that, Tang Tianyuan waved his hand and motioned Chen Chu to go out.
Chen Chu came out of the room and immediately met Assistant Tan's concerned gaze: "What does Tang Tianyuan want you to do?"
Tang Tianyuan arranged for him and Lin Xi to deal with the geomantic map matter. Assistant Tan also wanted to know about this matter eventually, so Chen Chu did not hide it and briefly told Assistant Tan about the matter.
Assistant Tan: "The authorities are taking a desperate gamble. If this disaster cannot be avoided, the place where the earthquake occurred will definitely be the city where the subspace was opened."
Chen Chu nodded.
Assistant Tan suddenly said, "Chen Chu, why do I feel that this Team Leader Tang is very hostile to you?"
Chen Chu looked at Assistant Tan, somewhat surprised. Anyone with eyes could see Tang Tianyuan's hostility towards him, but asking him directly was very inconsistent with Assistant Tan's character. Assistant Tan was not a sea king, and he was not so ignorant of propriety.
Assistant Tan seemed to have noticed Chen Chu's surprise, and explained, "I'm not trying to pry into your privacy. I just can't stand the way this person talks. What do you mean by you brought the geography map back, and you decide how to deal with it in the end? When you brought the geography map back, you didn't know it would cause such a disaster. Moreover, the disposal method of the geography map was clearly decided by the authorities, and the location was also chosen by the authorities based on the location where the subspace was opened. How come he said you were the one to deal with it? It's as if if it doesn't work, it means you deliberately wanted to destroy the city."
After saying this, Assistant Tan felt unlucky himself, stamped his feet fiercely and pouted several times: "I just said that Team Leader Tang is not a good person, I didn't mean to say that the operation will fail."
Chen Chu looked at Assistant Tan, who looked annoyed, and laughed happily: "I know what you mean. Don't worry, the geocentric map will definitely be sent back to the subspace."
Assistant Tan spoke for such a long time, with only one purpose, he was telling me that no matter what the final result of the earth vein map was, it was not his fault. His leader was indeed hard on the outside but soft on the inside.
Chen Chu did not directly tell Assistant Tan that Lin Xi had a way to deal with the geomagnetic map. It was not because he did not trust Assistant Tan, but because it was Lin Xi's secret. Even if he wanted to tell it, it should be Lin Xi herself who said it. He would not interfere.
Assistant Tan asked again: "Has the location been decided?"
Chen Chu shook his head: "Not yet."
This was also the reason why he did not ask Tang Tianyuan for the map right away. If he asked for it before the location was determined, it would be very strange. Fortunately, the authorities had already appointed Lin Yan to assist him in completing this matter. Even if he gave them the map at the last minute, there was still enough time.
Assistant Tan nodded: "Then I will let Lin know first."
Assistant Tan did not call Lin Yan immediately, but waited until the next morning to call her. As a result, Lin Yan did not answer the phone after several calls, and only called back an hour later.
Lin Yan: "Assistant Tan, are you looking for me?"
Assistant Tan: "Where have you been? Why did you take so long to answer the phone?"
It’s a good thing that it was done in advance. If it was done right when something happened, it would have been too late.
Lin Yan: "I was in the secret room pretending to be a female ghost, and I just came out."
Assistant Tan's blood pressure rose: "At this time, you still have the mood to dress up as a female ghost? Aren't you afraid of really becoming a female ghost?"
Is this because he thinks he isn't paying enough attention to the crisis in the geomagnetic map
I swear to God, she is the one who has done the most good work, okay
Lin Yan decided to avoid the topic directly and said in a flattering tone: "Assistant Tan, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Assistant Tan: "I may need your assistance in dealing with the leyline map."
Lin Yan, who was still wearing the ghost girl's clothes, suddenly jumped up from her chair: "Do you need me to come over now?"
Assistant Tan: "The specific location has not been determined yet. I just want to let you know. You may need to use your space travel ability when the time comes."
Lin Yan: "Okay, I'll be there whenever you call."
Assistant Tan gritted his teeth: "You'd better be."
