The second possibility was that, similar to Chen Gu's profession, some quantum abilities were used, ones that humans had not yet thoroughly researched.

This hypothesis also had its own flaws. If it were a quantum method, those at the Ninth Power Level, known as "Quantum Wizards," should have perceived such methods and warned future generations. However, that did not happen.

The third possibility was that these entities used a very mysterious force that humans had yet to discover; for instance, people in the ancient times of the Mother Planet did not know of the existence of "gravity."

As awkward as it sounded, this was the research finding of Derek Kun Shen Ken.

According to these findings, Derek Kun Shen Ken had discovered a key point: any entity in the Endless Realm wanting to tempt any being must "locate" the target.

If one were in an unlocatable state, it might be possible to evade the other's capabilities.

It seemed quite logical, but Derek Kun Shen Ken had died before he had the chance to test whether his theory was correct. This was just a conjecture, and with the Endless Realm being so strange, the theory was honestly not very reliable.

Now, Chen Gu could only take a gamble.

The moment his hand touched the box, the energy cage completely locked down, allowing neither entry nor exit. All the laser guns in the room aimed at him!

Outside, everyone's hearts were in their throats.

But inside the energy cage, all was calm. Chen Gu placed his hand on the remains, covertly prepared for various contingencies. After a while, the remains showed no reaction—no change other than the already intense radiation.

Chen Gu slowly took the remains out of the box. As if guided by an unseen force, he first examined the Antimatter Bomb placed at the bottom of the box. It looked ordinary, just a palm-sized black block.

Then, Chen Gu began to examine the remains and said to the people outside, "I'm ready to begin."

He mobilized the power within his body and channeled it into the remains.

However, when channeling the power, Chen Gu used his Radiation Missionary profession, then switched to Quantum Wizard immediately after.

The remains, having absorbed the energy, lit up slightly. A mercury-like substance flowed slowly and viscously over its surface.

It didn't seem to cause any strong reaction...

Chen Gu attentively sensed the process, staying vigilant. If he saw, heard, or detected anything utterly bizarre, he would immediately use his abilities to place himself in a state of Quantum Teleportation—activated but not yet teleporting.

This was a "quantum" state, interpretable as being between "existing" and "not existing" in that location—the very method Derek Kun Shen Ken had conceived for becoming unlocatable by entities of the Endless Realm.

This was the only method Chen Gu could think of.

He looked at the perfectly square energy cage: a honeycomb device in each of the four ceiling corners and sixty-four laser guns neatly arranged on the walls. Very satisfying, he thought, entirely in line with Derek Kun Shen Ken's aesthetics.

But then, he saw the four people outside the energy cage. You people! Can't you stand apart? Each of you in one direction, and you should stand man opposite man, woman opposite woman. Symmetry is beauty!

The way they're standing now... it's making me uncomfortable.

Chen Gu complained internally. High-Power Level professionals surely all have their quirks!

He forcefully suppressed the aesthetic eccentricity arising from the Quantum Wizard memories, focusing his attention on himself and the remains.

However, the "menace" he had been anticipating never appeared. Instead, the mercury-like light grew more abundant, rippling like water waves. It completely enveloped the remains and then slowly spread up Chen Gu's arm, covering half of his body.

Chen Jixian immediately said, "Don't be afraid. This is a normal reaction."

With his more extensive experience as a professional, he knew the current situation was akin to what happened inside the Generator.

Chen Gu had a similar feeling, much like the terrible pain he'd experienced when he was appointed at the Zhaojieze City branch.

Only this time, without the supplement of super-material, his body was likely incapable of repairing itself as it had before.

But this mercury-like light didn't possess the strong "transformative" power of the Generator.

Nevertheless, Chen Gu couldn't help but worry. If this light completely engulfs my body, wouldn't it be like being inside the Generator?

What would the final outcome be? Without the Generator, I certainly can't advance. Does that mean only self-destruction awaits?!

Chen Gu realized he had "miscalculated." Before volunteering to test these remains, everyone had worried about confronting the Evil God directly. It never crossed their minds that the remains themselves could be so dangerous. Perhaps I won't even make it to facing the Evil God, he thought. I might be finished already.

Indeed, I'm not cut out to be a hero.

A bitter thought crossed Chen Gu's mind.

The next instant, the mercury-like light that had enveloped half his body suddenly erupted, completely engulfing him.

"Chen Gu!" Gorilla became anxious, rushing to the side of the energy cage, only to be blasted away by a beam of energy.

Chen Jixian took a deep breath and gently restrained Gorilla, who was about to charge again. "Now, all we can do is trust him!"

Chen Gu found himself standing in a vast expanse of the Star Sea. Ahead, in the immense darkness, he saw something light up.

An Evil God?! Chen Gu immediately became vigilant, ready to activate Quantum Teleportation at any moment.

The light drew nearer and multiplied, becoming a cluster of butterfly-like specks, flying closer. But Chen Gu soon realized it wasn't the light approaching him; rather, he was being pulled by some mysterious force, continuously drawing closer to it.

Soon he saw it clearly: a colossal super-life form. It had the head of a mythical dragon from the legends of the Mother Planet's ancient era, though it was somewhat more monstrous.

Its body bore countless tails, like tendrils, constantly writhing and coiling around it, preventing Chen Gu from discerning its true form.

Its surface was patterned in black and white, interspersed with those specks of light. When still, and seen from a distance, it resembled a nebula.

The mysterious force kept pulling him steadily towards the super-life form, and Chen Gu watched, helpless, as he was about to collide with it.

Primal terror surged within him. He desperately tried to resist, but his efforts were futile; he continued to approach the super-life form at a constant speed.
