Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 1562: Chapter 1557: Gains and Reports

As long as you stay true to your original intention, surprises will always appear in the pursuit of knowledge.

What Fu Qian did in that moment was simple: he activated his Mythical Form, transformed into the Abandonment King, and then detonated the Calamity of the White Head Holy Church.

With the Divine Skin upon him and as the Master of the Dream Realm, even if the corresponding existence’s Ranking behind this is exaggerated, it still easily allowed Him to witness what it means to wield a Calamity.

As for why such a sincere response was given, it was naturally because the other party also showed sincerity.

The core reason for taking up this task was because, as someone who personally crushed the Revelry of Sinful Desire, Fu Qian was curious about the concept of ”Ecstasy.”

On the surface, it seemed like he was helping the Night Watchman, but looking at it from another angle, it was equivalent to the Night Watchman using their resource advantage to help seek things that might have clues, delivering them right to him.

Even the subsequent tests he was invited to do were extremely legitimate, not arousing undue suspicion.

The ultimate result was that this ball, which was not highly ranked, surprisingly brought about a delightful surprise.

It somehow resembled the power emblem of that Stomach.

There was even the addition of a White Head Church with vast commercial potential.

Although the name of that thing was still unknown, the original request was to help confirm the danger of the Finger Ball, which was definitely an overachievement of the task.

And the conclusion was that it is extremely dangerous.

The Night Watchman probably needs to put in some work now.

In terms of theoretical gains, not only was there a deep understanding of the twisted nature of pleasure, clarifying the state the Ecstatic Crowd was in before.

Even why the upgraded Visceral Critical Strike would have such a description seemed to be answered to some extent.

The process of amassing immense pleasure showcased the mental power of this authority, which is likely why Professor Ian could parasitize freely after achieving Demigod status.

In all, the gains were substantial.

If earlier the danger of the White Head Holy Church was realized, and the choice was to directly tackle the Dream Realm’s problem, although it would still overturn Professor Chang Mo’s theory and take it further, reporting back would be no problem. But that’s hardly the stature of an academic leader.

”Did you write it all down?”

With this in mind, Fu Qian turned to look at his assistant, casually asking.

...

”I wrote it down...”

A series of changes from earlier to now undoubtedly left no time to take everything in.

Fortunately, Miss Liushuang, following Professor Fu, had seen much. After a brief moment of shock, she quickly recovered and nodded earnestly.

There was a moment just now, as that emblem bizarrely materialized, even without understanding the specific changes behind it, an intense feeling of danger engulfed her heart.

In the blink of an eye, it returned to the scene prior to performing Xinjian Prison.

The crisis beyond imagination was resolved just like that, and Professor Fu didn’t even move much.

”Very well, you’ll be the one to write the report after we return.”

Amid her awe, Professor Fu snapped his fingers nonchalantly.

This time, the scene before her didn’t change much, but instinctively it felt like a complete return to reality—

Benji was sitting at the table with his head down, holding the Finger Ball, an unusual silence prevailing.

Professor Fu was casually flipping through a document, the sound of paper immediately reminding her of the earlier arrangement.

So all of this was planned...?

Was bringing me along for the purpose of utilizing my document experience?

”Is there any difficulty?”

In Miss Liushuang’s silent astonishment, Fu Qian, not getting a response, looked up to glance at her. The next moment, he handed the report directly over.

”There are some changes I don’t quite understand... also, I’m not sure which parts are key and what to ignore...”

Clearly, the stance offered no room for refusal, and Ji Liushuang evidently had no intention of declining.

Obediently extending her hand, she blinked and honestly admitted her difficulty.

”It’s okay, I’ll help you highlight the key points.”

Professor Fu waved his hand, indicating not to worry.

”Also, don’t forget to include the alternative sweet scent that permeated out when the emblem was broken just now.”

Sweet scent?

”Okay.”

Pausing slightly, Ji Liushuang nodded in agreement, actually taking out a notebook to jot it down.

Undoubtedly, she had overlooked this phenomenon, despite observing seriously all the way.

The reason was simple.

Although the situation just now was only a projection, without the additional Dream Realm filter, even a Middle Tier Transcendent would have a hard time remaining in such a good mental state.

Given that the scent evidently had the potential to spread the Seed of Ecstasy, Fu Qian immediately blocked it externally.

In scientific research, besides innovation and pursuit of truth, safety precautions have always been of paramount importance.

...

”What do we do next, take him back for treatment?”

Seeing Professor Fu give the instructions and stand up, Ji Liushuang, with notes in hand, turned her head, looking at Benji, who hadn’t said a word and seemed unresponsive to the outside world.

”Theoretically, he fell into spiritual fatigue due to undergoing continuous self-sublimation just now.”

Fu Qian took a few steps forward, retrieving the Finger Ball from Benji’s hand and casually tossing it to the assistant, snapping his fingers again.

”Put it away, don’t make direct contact.”

Following this action, Benji’s body moved slightly, then he raised his head with some bewilderment and looked at the two.

”The test... is over?”

A moment later, the light in his eyes quickly returned as he frowned at his now empty hands.

He seemed to have no concept of what took place in the dream just now.

”It’s over, thank you for your cooperation.”

Fu Qian wore a gentle smile.

”I was just cooperating...”

Yet Brother Benji didn’t look entirely pleased, forcing a bit of a smile to emphasize.

”But isn’t the second treatment still pretty ideal? Don’t you feel more liberated?”

Fu Qian didn’t mind, pointing to the bowl of soup in front of Benji.

Frowning slightly, the latter looked over as instructed, then fell into silence, seemingly savoring his feelings.

He said nothing more until Fu Qian and the others left.

...

”It does seem freer, but essentially, should it be influenced by that sublimation?”

In less than ten minutes, the research team completed the test and quickly left Benji’s residence. Soon, Ji Liushuang was the first to speak.

”Yes.”

”...To be honest, I’m unsure whether this change is good or bad for him, but once the report is submitted, I believe the Night Watchman will definitely scrutinize his condition.”

Looking at Fu Qian, Miss Liushuang expressed her concern.

”Some actions might be a bit over the line in their standards.”

”Yes, that’s why they came to us.”

Professor Fu’s tone remained calm, affirming her statement once more.
