Wang Yongzhu was taken aback; he didn’t expect to connect with Chen Xing at this mont, it was truly an unexpected joy.
Overco with excitent, Wang Yongzhu stood up, just as he was about to speak to Chen Xing, he heard the crackling sound of poor signal in his mind and Chen Xing’s intermittent voice, "...signal...cut off...problem...".
Wang Yongzhu paused, squatted back down, and placed his hand back into the river, and Chen Xing’s words beca clear again: "Madam, what is happening on your side? Is the magnetic field very unstable? Are you in danger?"
Chen Xing’s voice confird Wang Yongzhu’s speculation. After exchanging his current location and thoughts with Chen Xing,
Chen Xing imdiately asked Wang Yongzhu to collect so of the river water into the space, so he could help analyze it.
Wang Yongzhu discreetly collected the river water into the space, then waited for Chen Xing’s results.
The guards beside him had already stood up, first observing the surroundings, then turned back to find Wang Yongzhu still crouched by the river, his hand still in the water.
Unable to resist, they approached: "Madam, the river water is too cold, and we don’t know if there is anything unclean in it, you should stay away!"
Wang Yongzhu shook his head: "It’s fine, I’m just feeling the temperature and flow of the river water. You should check this cave again carefully to make sure there’s no danger."
"Also, you should send so people out to look for Qin Laowu’s whereabouts. Normally, he wouldn’t go far if he went out, search this valley thoroughly and make sure to find him."
Besides, Wang Yongzhu was familiar with these guards, their selection to search for gold mines was an acknowledgnt of their ability and loyalty.
If nothing unexpected happened to Qin Laowu, he wouldn’t leave the vicinity of this cave. What’s worriso is if sothing did happen to him.
This was the main task, and the other guards went off after receiving the orders.
A few people discussed among themselves, leaving three in the cave to both search for danger and remain on standby to protect Wang Yongzhu.
The others went out to the valley to search for Qin Laowu’s whereabouts.
After the guards dispersed, it wasn’t long before Wang Yongzhu heard a response from Chen Xing.
The river water contained a strange magnetic energy, unlike anything that could exist in the tispace where Wang Yongzhu was located, it was likely due to a high-dinsional technological product.
The earlier inability to contact Chen Xing was due to this magnetic energy, and now being able to connect was also related to this magnetic energy.
Wang Yongzhu was startled, rembering that after a previous visit to Yunzhong County, he returned and couldn’t contact Chen Xing, though there was no issue when he had previously visited the mountains there.
Reflecting on the changes in the valley, it was likely the influence of the magnetic energy?
Thinking this, the situation with Qi Le seed even more suspicious. Why did she co to this valley? Had she discovered sothing abnormal? But how did she know? Was she using hypnotism to keep this valley’s secret?
Suddenly, an idea popped into Wang Yongzhu’s mind, shocking her, even Chen Xing was startled by her wildly imaginative idea and was speechless for a while.
After a long mont, he said: "Madam, your imagination is truly too rich—"
Wang Yongzhu couldn’t help but argue: "Chen Xing, think carefully, you previously ntioned that there are rebel groups who have escaped, and that they were supposed to have visited the tispace I’m in, which is why the White Jade Pearl was found, right?"
"If we dare to speculate, perhaps when those rebels fell into this tispace, it wasn’t a brief stay, but a crash landing, maybe due to so interstellar impact, like a black hole or storm, forcing them to ergency land here. After the landing, they found they had no energy and couldn’t leave, so they had to live in this tispace, could they have left descendants?"
"These descendants might have scattered across this tispace over hundreds or thousands of years, so might even have forgotten their rebel lineage. So might rember, spending their lives seeking the original crash site of their ancestors, hoping to find the spacecraft and leave this tispace?"
"And this valley, might it be where the rebel spacecraft originally landed, with energy depleted, unable to leave, and according to its initial program, sending signals periodically, perhaps summoning the descendants of the rebels?"
Recalling the interstellar movies and novels she’d seen in modern tis, Wang Yongzhu fused these ideas in her mind and pieced these tropes together.
To her, these tropes were quite ordinary and clichéd, in interstellar movies and novels, this kind of story would be scorned, wouldn’t it?
Yet, it had actually startled Chen Xing?
She hadn’t even told Chen Xing about those lodramatic love stories, love triangles, quadrangles, cross-species romance, and such.
Moreover, she felt her speculation was quite plausible, for instance, Qi Le, with her strange experiences in youth, her Mary Sue charm as if from a novel, her bizarre hypnotism, and her cold attitude towards the Qi Family, there was always a sense of discord about her.
But if she were a rebel descendant, it would make sense; she naturally had no affinity with the Qi Family, which would justify her coldness!
Her peculiar charm and hypnotism would have an origin.
And most importantly, why did she appear in this valley, what was the reason that, after becoming Queen Ah Lan, she still risked coming to Great Chu, just for this valley?
Thinking back to the trade negotiations, the prairie side ntioned a request to establish a temporary residence in Yunzhong County.
Logically, considering Qi Le’s relation to the Qi Family, the first choice for a temporary residence should have been in Capital City, where she was born and raised.
Even if Capital City were a hurtful place, the second choice should still have been Chicheng County, because Song Chongjin is her only relative in this world, she claid to want to acknowledge Song Chongjin and connect in familial sentint, shouldn’t it be more convenient in Chicheng County for interaction?
Why insist on Yunzhong County, which is unexpected and seemingly unrelated? She must have her reasons!
If it’s for the valley, then everything makes sense!
Analyzing it this way, both Wang Yongzhu and Chen Xing beca convinced, or rather, Chen Xing followed Wang Yongzhu’s words and conducted his own analysis.
With his calculation abilities, he assessed and analyzed these conditions, and there appeared to be a sixty to seventy percent likelihood.
Chen Xing reacted promptly, reporting this possibility to the Alliance’s highest officers, and soon, a response ca back.
To the Alliance, the rebel escape back then almost dealt a devastating blow.
Before their escape, the rebels destroyed and took a significant amount of the Alliance’s valuable plants, artifacts, various data, and treasured resources.
That rebellion severely weakened the Alliance, taking almost a century to recover.
If not for the rebels, the Alliance would have had the qualification to upgrade a level in the next century, but due to this rebellion, the Alliance nearly fell from a primary civilization.
When other civilizations learned of it, so tried to take advantage, it took countless Alliance warriors to fend them off and protect their ho.
Anyone in the Alliance, from the elderly to the young, would grieve at the ntion of rebels, the hatred remaining undiminished after hundreds of years.
Otherwise, discovering just a trace of the rebels with the White Jade Pearl wouldn’t have rited such abundant reward for Wang Yongzhu.
That’s because the hatred for rebels was ingrained in the Alliance’s bones.
Upon hearing Chen Xing’s analysis, a decision was swiftly made by the highest officials of the Alliance.
They instructed Chen Xing to provide Wang Yongzhu with all necessary support and demands, to ascertain whether Qi Le is a rebel!
anwhile, orders were issued for the army to stand ready to capture the rebels, prepared to set out quickly once confird, with Alliance forces ready to reach this tispace.
