Chapter 278: Chapter 276 “Descent Protocol”!_1 Chapter 278: Chapter 276 “Descent Protocol”!_1 November 9th, morning.
With still half a day before the mission ti, Colin held a milk tea in one hand and in the other, the report that Qin Chuan and the others had delivered the day before, curiously flipping through the information.
“‘Correlation between Double-Slit Interference Experint Anomalies and Extraordinary Events’…”
“In short, it’s about an experint with photons, and whether soone’s watching or not, the results are never the sa. Can science really be this uncertain? It sounds quite hair-raising…”
“However, this uncertainty in the experint only appeared in the 21st century. Since then, the experint has completely failed to work as it used to; no matter where in the world, no matter what the setting, whether observed or not, the experintal results always show a ‘with observer’ status. It seems as though, sothing has always been observing this place…”
Reading this, Colin suddenly couldn’t help but shiver with an inexplicable chill, as if sothing were staring at him.
Then, he continued to check the report.
These experints were never ntioned in textbooks, never seen before, quite interesting.
Further on, it ntions that shortly after the failure of the experint, new phenona started to be noticed in the new century.
Consequently, so linked these events together.
“A considerable number of people believe that we are constantly under the watchful eyes of sothing, especially high-ranking personnel often have such a feeling. However, although many people have brought this up, it hasn’t been truly verified.”
“Moreover, not only that, although physical laws at macro levels haven’t seen much change, at the very microscale, many experints have begun to yield results completely opposite to those before the 21st century.”
“The most widely accepted by researchers thus far is the anomaly that occurred on December 31, 1999. So, according to this… does it an that extraordinary events related to the ‘extraordinary’ only started appearing after the 21st century and there weren’t any before?”
Colin thought about it and guessed it was probably so; he then flipped through the rest of the report, which ntioned so experints influenced by extraordinary things, in the hope of researching new technologies.
Unfortunately, though there was progress, devices like “reality stabilizers” and such, the list wasn’t very long when counted.
On the whole, the progress wasn’t significant; there were no disruptive outcos, and many advances remained at the experintal phase, with very few practical applications.
For example, the “Fate Propeller” directly observed the results of experints; many cases only yielded results, without processes, so much so that it was unclear where the error lay.
But in the sa experint, when “Fate Propeller” utilized “Luck” augntation, the results beca sowhat different.
The problem is…
Without the “Luck” augntation, the effect would revert back, and no one knew the specifics.
However, so high-ranking personnel like Old Master Wu, who were involved in the experints, believed that the specific processes could be displayed in the ‘Book of Fate’.
The reason they haven’t been revealed could be due to so yet unknown protective chanism of the ‘Book of Fate’.
Because, according to the speculation of Old Master Wu and other senior mbers, even the most ordinary experint, if it fully revealed every change in the process and obtained absolutely complete information, the volu of information would be enough to extinguish Ninth Level Personnel in an instant…
They had the ans to obtain information, but not the capacity to hold it.
Moreover, although employing extraordinary beings through specific thods for experints could reduce so consumption, it was fatal.
Hence, extraordinary ones wouldn’t participate in non-critical experints, especially the precious high-ranking extraordinary ones.
“‘Book of Fate’ has a protective chanism?”
Colin himself didn’t have any awareness of it; he had been tricked quite badly several tis, to the point that now he dared not use it recklessly, fearing to see sothing he shouldn’t.
Moreover, as far as he was aware, sufficiently advanced beings had a probability of discovering their use of this thing.
Like “Hunger,” the opponent could even counterattack along this kind of “observation”!
“However, although the current results are modest, the future seems unpredictable.”
“Based on this report, the overall influence and strength of the extraordinary are increasing over ti.”
“It’s possible that in the next few years, the influence of the extraordinary on the material reality will reach a new level, and that’s when disruptive results will erge. So predict that by 2044 it might reach its peak, tch, that ti again…”
Colin shook his head, finished scanning the information, and picked up another report.
This report recorded a series of abnormal events. He flipped through the index and found information about the surroundings of Coast City. After reading it, Colin received two pieces of news—one good and one bad—
Coast City, including its province, rarely witnessed any incidents, ranking among the fewest in the country, just as its economy trailed at the bottom.
But the bad news was that within a re distance of less than four hundred kiloters away in a certain sea area, there was an eerie, solitary island whose threat level was A , which is currently the highest level in the world.
The “ ” sign indicated that it had the potential to further evolve into an “S (Civilization Disruption)” level…
Higher levels of calamity nearby usually ant less trouble from other sources.
“Ah, if it doesn’t co, fine, but when it does, it’s a big one…”
Colin was sowhat at a loss for words as he carefully reviewed the incident report and discovered that the lower-level reports tended to be more detailed. For high-level ones like this, there was only one short line—
“Currently, the anomaly is in a stable state.”
The person in charge of the related disaster was Old Master Wu.
“However, fortunately, there won’t be any trouble in the near future, but it’s a pity that the report doesn’t provide detailed content. I’ll have to ask Old Master Wu later about the specifics…”
Colin sighed, set the relevant report aside, crossed his legs and took another look at the staff officially assigned to him.
Then, he was suddenly taken aback.
The officials had actually arranged for him to team up with more than ten Level 1 and Level 2 “Fate Propellers” from the Extraordinary Ones.
“This… they really think highly of .”
Colin didn’t refuse, but shook his head with a wry smile, then casually picked up the previous docunts, flas surged in his palm, burning all the papers to ashes to prevent any leaks.
Through these docunts, he had gained a more clear understanding of the world behind the scenes.
Leaving aside the minor ones, just the recorded number of A Level Calamities scattered around the world was close to ten, each capable of causing a catastrophe that could decimate a continent.
“This doesn’t even include those I know about. If that ‘Script City’ completely loses control one day, and a bunch of abnormalities from a multitude of replica worlds pour out… tsk.”
“No wonder I’ve heard that there seems to be so kind of ‘Spark’ plan in case of evacuation in many countries. If one day we really can’t contain it, there really is no option but to run.”
Colin suddenly felt a sense of helplessness and insufficiency.
What virtue does Earth have to be ho to so many bizarre anomalies?
However, he didn’t dwell on this matter. Colin knew that his current mission was to find a way to beco strong enough, otherwise, he would have no way of protecting himself, the people, and the things he cared about in the face of highly probable future anomalies.
Subsequently, he sat in his chair and stretched greatly.
But it was at this mont that Colin’s expression froze, as if he felt…
“An inexplicable easing of so restraint upon ?”
Sitting up straight to feel it, Colin realized that this mysterious relief wasn’t due to his own doing, but rather it seed that the environnt had undergone so change.
He felt that his powers might operate more smoothly in this environnt.
Yet, so intuition told him that this might not be a good thing.
Regardless, he couldn’t worry about that now. Colin looked at the ti; it was almost ti for the mission. He sent ssages to Old Master Wu and Qin Chuan, asking if there had been any changes, then returned to his bedroom, laid on the bed and silently closed his eyes.
Before long, a distant and ancient voice echoed in his ears.
“Damn it! That’s the voice of the ‘Descent Protocol’! This isn’t a normal mission!”
The veteran transmigrator, Colin, instantly realized sothing but before he could think further, his expression beca dazed, and when he ca to his senses, he found himself in a confined, narrow space.
An indescribable oppression made him feel an uncomfortable sense of breathlessness.
