Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?
Chapter 1028: Fool's Dream, the Life Sequence Opened from the Source
“Is Xiao Han observing the life sequence?”
“It should be right. The uniqueness of the Ancient Glacial Ice race allows Xiao Han to use the power of the Grand Spellbook to understand the life sequence in reverse.”
Lucine spoke up.
Although she was not a member of the original reproduction project of the Ancient Glacial Ice race, as a Witch with significant weight in the field of life research, she had understood the entire process of that experiment back then.
She naturally understood the uniqueness of the Ancient Glacial Ice race.
“What is the purpose of understanding the life sequence?”
Some Witches who didn't quite understand asked as soon as they were confused.
“If the final result is the gestation of consciousness, does the life sequence have any directional role in the birth of consciousness?”
A Witch raised this question.
“I don't know much about the field of life sequences. I only barely know that a racial life sequence is divided into two Authorities. Even so, that shouldn't have anything to do with consciousness, right?”
“Maybe the understanding isn't deep enough?”
“Could Xiao Han's line of thinking be too much of a wishful assumption?”
While these Witches were chatting, Lucine spoke:
“Regarding the two major Authorities into which the life sequence is divided, as for those related to consciousness, I have learned a bit. It is related to the summoning Authority, which corresponds to the racial concept. The racial concept itself is related to consciousness, but I don't know how it is related. I have never stepped into that level.”
At this moment, I heard all the low-voiced exchanges among these Witch sisters.
Although they used communication methods that wouldn't be too intrusive, one should not underestimate the passive hearing of a Five Senses Body Cultivator.
I also performed a simple analysis of the conversation between these few Witch sisters, but the more I listened, the more confused I became.
From the subsequent words, I learned that Big Sis Lucine had once participated in experiments of life creation.
However, her understanding of life sequences was not deep, still staying at the “surface” cognitive level.
“Big Sis Lucine, I take the liberty to ask, have you participated in Primal experiments for a new race?”
Finally, I couldn't help but take the initiative to speak up.
Hearing my interruption, the group of Witches suddenly fell silent, until a small voice broke the awkwardness.
“Eh, your private chat over here was heard by Xiao Han.”
“Yes, I indeed participated in Primal experiments for a new race, or rather, it was called the Primal Ancestor Cultivation Plan.”
Lucine spoke.
“Primal Ancestor Cultivation Plan...”
I made a slight mental note of this project name and then continued to speak:
“Then why does it feel like Big Sis Lucine's understanding of life sequences doesn't seem very deep? To create a brand-new Primal ancestor, one needs to open a life sequence, right?”
“Yes, one indeed needs to open a brand-new life sequence, but that doesn't mean we understand it very thoroughly. On the other hand, Xiao Han... you understand the life sequence very thoroughly. The things you are doing now... even we Witches are already a bit unable to understand.”
Lucine didn't feel much embarrassment; instead, she used this opportunity to ask me.
“Um.”
I nodded, having a roughly immature guess in my heart, and then continued the conversation:
“After all, I am working on the Fool's Dream life experiment. To make the Fool's Dream become a true life, I must thoroughly understand the life sequence and open a life sequence for the Fool's Dream. Only then can the Fool's Dream become a true life.”
“Opening a life sequence... for the Fool's Dream?”
Hearing my words, Lucine was, as I expected, extremely shocked by this statement.
And I also confirmed ninety percent of my guess.
“Is Big Sis Lucine's line of thinking for researching the Primal ancestor to use existing life as a template to begin the evolution of a brand-new race's Primal ancestor?”
“...That is indeed so. The birth of a Primal ancestor is already extremely difficult now. The continuous opening of life sequences has made the races in the Void very numerous, and opening a life sequence will also become increasingly difficult...”
Lucine began to narrate the Primal Ancestor Cultivation Plan she had once participated in, and I merely listened.
Now I thoroughly understood.
The starting point for the birth of a common new race's Primal ancestor is already life; what they do is merely interference.
But my Fool's Dream does not start as life!
She isn't even a common consciousness, but a concept entirely independent of reality.
Therefore, I don't have any entry point.
I can only rely on the power of the Sacred Relic to proactively open a life sequence and pioneer from the source.
Lucine and the others don't need to thoroughly understand what lies deep within a life sequence because they start with a regular life sequence, and what they do is just evolve new branches on the original foundation.
But the Fool's Dream starts with nothing, so I need to understand everything!
At least the most crucial concepts must all be understood, pioneering from nothing!
Now, I truly appreciate why Dream-state soul-substance is so sought after.
Admittedly, opening up dream life is difficult among difficulties, but once all Witches join forces to open a gap, then all Witches can follow this gap to explore the endless blue ocean!
Previously, I only knew that Dream-state soul-substance was the blue ocean of dream life, but now that I know the difficulty, I also have a resonance with this “madness.”
No wonder even Big Sis Lucine, when we first met, intentionally or unintentionally brought up the topic of Dream-state soul-substance and the Nightmare Workshop with me.
It turns out she had been eyeing it for a long time.
However, as a steady academic Witch with deep heritage and long accumulation, she still displayed great restraint.
So restrained that previously I didn't even hear the underlying meaning behind bringing up the topic.
If I had known, I should have just kept Heart Sense communication on throughout the entire contact with these Witch sisters...
The reverse analysis of the life sequence is very time-consuming.
It's not that this process is so difficult, but that I need time to constantly observe whether the racial concept matches the conjecture I proposed, the “Consciousness Imprint Theory.”
If it matches, then everything is happy.
If it doesn't match, then I modify the theory until I argue the conjecture into a practical and feasible guiding theory.
Furthermore, this process cannot lack the pushing force of Destiny.
Even with the addition of Destiny, certain opportunities are still needed to complete the gestation of consciousness.
For this “Ancient Glacial Ice Consciousness Gestation” experiment and the Main World trade, Academy Head Mei specifically moved her Destiny Gazing Technique specialized project research laboratory to the Expansion Realm side in secret.
Because the so-called trade was described very vaguely, no Witch knew when, where, or in what form this trade would unfold.
For this, naturally, complete preparations had to be made.
And I also supported Academy Head Mei in doing so.
Because once the Destiny Gazing Technique project started, I could avoid some unnecessary conjectures and some attempts that wasted time and energy through the changes driven by Destiny.
Time passed slowly.
Many Witches watched this without blinking, even though it already involved their knowledge blind spots.
Even for academic Witches, there are areas they are good at and areas they are not; they were quite open-minded about this.
Until a figure arrived here.
It was exactly Mei Linde, who had barely finished the relocation of the Destiny Gazing Technique project.
The subsequent equipment debugging and adjustment to the new environment temporarily didn't require her presence.
So she hurried here at the first moment, her movements very slight for fear of creating noise that would disturb the focused atmosphere of the moment.
Although she had prepared herself mentally, when Mei Linde saw a group of Transcendent academic Witches in professional fields watching what Xiao Han was doing as if they were students, her heart still could not remain calm.
Indeed, talent is always an existence more unreasonable than effort or accumulation.
She just stood silently on the side until I noticed her presence.
“Big Sis Mei is here.”
I looked up and inadvertently saw this familiar figure.
I truly hadn't noticed the Academy Head's arrival.
On one hand, I had put all my energy into the project of consciousness gestation, and on the other hand, as a veteran Transcendent, it was simply too easy for the Academy Head to prevent me from noticing her arrival.
“Yes.”
Seeing that I had taken the initiative to speak, the Academy Head also immediately stepped forward enthusiastically.
“The Destiny Gazing Technique project is almost completely set up. It is estimated that we can cooperate with full effort by tomorrow at the latest. How is the progress on your end, Xiao Han?”
“Things are on the right track on my end. It's just that I'll need to trouble Big Sis Mei and all the sisters participating in the Destiny Gazing Technique project next.”
“It's no trouble. Every single one of them is quite excited.”
The Academy Head waved her hand and spoke with a smile.
This wasn't just politeness; it was the truth.
Those Witches were ten thousand times enthusiastic about the things they were going to do.
One must know that the security level for Witches participating in the Destiny Gazing Technique project was likewise very high.
They knew very well what they were doing.
All projects, as long as they were related to the Umbilicus Mundi of the Main World, were classified as secret projects.
The Transcendent standoff incident at the Qunluosen Wasteland was essentially an incident indirectly caused by a leak of information from the Destiny Gazing Technique experiment.
So this time, conducting the Destiny Gazing Technique experiment within the Expansion Realm was at least more controllable than in the Core Realm.
More importantly, the Witch Academy held the initiative.
The opponent didn't understand in what way the Witches were planning for the Umbilicus Mundi, and even less so what kind of trump cards the Witches were still hiding!
“Then I'll prepare some more today, then rest for a bit to adjust my state. I hope from tomorrow onward, everything goes smoothly.”
Hearing the Academy Head say this, I also immediately followed the conversation.
***
Game World.
After learning that in the Game World, that Yang Yuehan was actually just a clone and that their efforts and schemes from beginning to end were a joke, these several Wizard apprentices suffered an extremely severe blow.
After all, just before, they were still envisioning having their own Wizard Towers in the Main World.
As a result, everything just left them like that.
This gap was truly unbearable for them!
However, since the matter had already occurred, they were all Wizard apprentices who had experienced great storms, so they quickly adjusted their psychological states.
It didn't matter if the hunting bounty for that little witch went down the drain.
It was like how before their mission was still to negotiate with the high-level members of the Game World to exchange for their Myriad Worlds Terminal.
In the end, wasn't it the changes in the Main World that prevented them from doing anything?
So they quickly began to plot regarding this Game World.
After all, no matter how you put it, this was also a world!
If they could grasp this world in their hands, it would still be a great achievement.
Of course, this was also the only thing they could do now.
It had been a long time since they designed the trap to kill that little witch at the cost of an underground city.
They hadn't been doing nothing.
Although an entire underground city was nothing to the people of the Supreme Council of the Game World, the influence caused by the deaths of so many people was far higher than they had predicted.
Originally, the Supreme Council members felt that sacrificing a low-value underground city to trap and kill a Calamity Witch was very much worth it.
Even if it would bring severe impacts, they were prepared to go all-in under the incitement of the Wizards.
But they never imagined that in the end, they wouldn't kill that Calamity Witch, and the impact brought by the destruction of an entire underground city was also unexpectedly large.
Now, the trust of the Supreme Council members toward the Wizard apprentices had thoroughly dropped to the freezing point.
But forced by the pressure from the Witches, and the decision they had already made to join the Void camp, they couldn't thoroughly fall out with the Wizard apprentices yet.
If they thoroughly pushed the Transcendent Wizards to the side of the Transcendent Witches as well, then their world might be completely beyond saving!
As if the world tomb they had witnessed in the Void before would be their fate.
But now, both the Supreme Council and the Wizard apprentices needed to calm down.
Similarly, they were all harboring their own hidden agendas.
The councilors of the Supreme Council wanted to maintain their relationship with the Transcendent Wizards, but they couldn't accept the Wizard apprentices who had failed time and again.
And the Wizard apprentices were secretly plotting regarding the entire Game World.
And the first thing they thought of was... the Truth Protection Association, which currently had the widest call in the Game World!
And that “Mr. Monroe” controlled by them was the nominal spiritual leader of the Truth Protection Association.
They needed to expand this resistance organization until they possessed the power to overthrow this game regime from the root.
And what these Wizard apprentices didn't know was that at this moment, “Monroe” was in close contact with the Supreme Councilors.
“No. 11, my time is very precious. Although I don't know what illness you and No. 02 have caught recently, with the current world situation, I don't feel we have any necessity for a private meeting.”
“No. 05, since we are all meeting in characters, don't use the excuse of being busy. Are you unwilling to even meet for this bit of time? I have very important matters to discuss with you, regarding... regarding those Wizard apprentices, and... Monroe.”
As this No. 11 clapped his hands, a figure walked out.
“Monroe? Shouldn't he be the dog of those Wizards already?”
No. 05 frowned while looking at this figure, somewhat confused.
“Where did you get the ability to bring him here?”
“Guess.”
No. 11 looked at No. 05 who had come as invited, a barely perceptible dangerous smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
