The steam revolution of this world and the development of science and technology far surpassed that of Wu Ming's previous world.
The kinetic energy and efficiency of steam boilers were no worse than internal combustion engines, and some technologies were even a mix of science and fantasy.
Lucius was not surprised by Luther's remarks. Instead, he pondered. "Even God is afraid of it?"
"Yes … We don't know if it can kill God, but it can definitely destroy the world!"
Professor Luther said in a desolate tone. "We Federation people are free. Even if we encounter a crisis that is difficult to deal with, at least we have the freedom to choose to destroy!"
Lucius understood immediately.
Perhaps that secret weapon could not kill God or aliens, but it could definitely destroy all living creatures in the world. What was the use of leaving a dead planet for them?
This was the greatest threat and trump card!
Although I can't beat you, I have the power to flip the table! At most, we will be destroyed together!
"Of course … These are the worst-case scenarios …"
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little heavy, Professor Luther immediately said, "Just by looking at the fact that those Gods only need to preach and need faith, we know that they cannot leave us humans. The worst-case scenario will not happen … Also, you have to believe in us. With the advancement of science and technology, our development will exceed your imagination!"
"I hope so!"
Lucius let out a deep breath.
He thought of the World of Reincarnation. According to the novel, that existence did not seem like it needed faith at all.
…
Justin was a has-been writer in the Bauhinia Federation. He had once been very poor, but his current situation was not bad.
In his heart, there was a secret.
The idea for his previous novel, The World of Reincarnation, came entirely from a dream. Every time he wrote, it was as if another person was using his hands to write.
This feeling was very frightening and a little surprising. After all, the story looked really good.
At that time, he could not even afford to buy bread, so he could only give it a try and send the manuscript to a publishing house.
He did not expect the other party to immediately send news that a rich man liked his book after reading it and was interested in investing in it to publish it. This was like a pie falling from the sky, and Justin immediately agreed.
Just like that, with the publication of Samsara World, his life gradually became better, even to the extent that he could live comfortably just by relying on this part of his income every month.
Under the purchase of many ambitious people, especially Samsara travelers, the sales of "Samsara World" were very good, and now the publishing house was preparing to publish it again.
Today, everything was normal.
According to his habit, Justin ran for half an hour after he got up in the morning. He then went to the cafe next to the apartment to drink coffee and eat pancakes while reading the latest newspaper.
"The werewolf has appeared!"
"The mystery of the Golden Oak Kingdom!"
"The big case in Feiying City continues to be tracked!"
…
Most of the headlines in the miscellaneous newspapers had such a name, which made Justin's mouth twitch. "Werewolf? What kind of joke was this? How could there be such a thing in this world? "
After the ferment of the Golden Oak Kingdom, the impact of the appearance of Transcendents on the worldview of ordinary people finally spread to the Bauhinia Federation.
However, the majority of the Federation citizens, who were full of freedom and pride, did not believe it.
"Hmm, it can be adapted into a novel. The Legend of the Werewolf? This selling point is not bad! "
Just as Justin was fantasizing about it, a man in a trench coat suddenly sat opposite him.
"This is my seat!"
Justin said discontentedly. He looked around and saw that there were still many empty seats.
"I'm here to look for you!"
The man had a serious expression, and his hooked nose gave Justin a bad feeling.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Lucius, and I belong to … the Federal Bureau of Investigation! This is my ID! "
Ever since he had the title of an assistant, Lucius had great authority. It was a piece of cake for him to get IDs from other departments. Even if someone went to check, they would find that this was the real deal.
"Federal Bureau of Investigation?"
The coffee cup in Justin's hand trembled. If the Special Search Department was an external organization, then the Bureau of Investigation was an internal monitoring organization. It was notorious.
"I'm a law-abiding taxpayer! I've definitely not done anything that violates the Federal Constitution. Why are you looking for me? "
Justin was depressed. In his opinion, it might be more acceptable if the Tax Bureau came looking for him.
"To assist in the investigation!"
Lucius lit a cigarette. "Do you know? I've been watching you for a long time … I've studied your birth date, resume, driver's license number, bank account number, and everything else at least ten times! "
"You pervert!"
Justin muttered, "What exactly do you want?"
"I want to find the answer, but unfortunately … I've been monitoring you for several months and have found nothing. I can only come to look for it myself!"
Lucius clapped his hands.
Immediately, Justin saw the owner of the cafe, the waiters, and even the guy selling pancakes, as well as his new neighbor, walk over.
"Let me reintroduce myself. They are all employees of the Bureau of Investigation, and they're here to monitor you 24/7!"
Lucius shook his head. "Unfortunately … they didn't find anything. I now understand that you might just be an ordinary person!"
"I'm an ordinary person to begin with!"
Justin's voice trembled. He originally thought that Lucius was a pervert, but now it seemed that not only was he a pervert, but he was even more perverted than he had imagined.
He was really afraid!
"I … I say … are you guys mistaken?"
Justin raised his hands in surrender. "I've definitely not done anything to endanger the safety of the Federation!"
"You haven't endangered the safety of the Federation?"
Lucius seemed to have heard the funniest joke. "In fact … you have endangered the safety of the entire world!"
He took out a book. "This is your work, isn't it?"
"That's right!"
Justin glanced at it and knew that it was his novel, The World of Samsara.
"Why did you write this work in the first place?"
Lucius asked with a scrutinizing gaze, "What influenced you?"
"This is my creativity. I conceived it …"
Justin felt flustered, as if his secret had been seen through, and he forced himself to speak.
And the person opposite him was obviously very dissatisfied with his performance.
"Mr. Justin, come with me!"
Lucius stood up and put his hands in his trouser pockets. "I'll say this again. Don't put up any meaningless resistance. There are already ten sniper rifles aimed at you, and an armored tank is on standby one street away!"
"Damn it!"
Justin wailed. "You don't have the authority to do this. I want to see my lawyer!"
"I can tell you another piece of news. The tycoon who sponsored you, Ambrose, is also under our control. He has a team of lawyers … Still, it's useless!"
Lucius looked at Justin, who was like a dead dog whose bones had been pulled out. Justin did not resist or struggle, and his hand holding the gun broke out in a cold sweat.
Although he had basically ruled out the possibility of Justin being the mastermind after multiple surveillance and investigations, he still made a lot of contingency plans just in case. He had even written his own will.
But now, it seemed that everything was going well.
However, it seemed that there would not be too many clues. He did not know whether he should be glad or disappointed, but he could not get rid of it.
…
Inside the interrogation room.
Lucius personally appeared, and many people were nervously watching Justin's every move through the surveillance cameras.
"This can't be true …"
Justin was the one who suffered the biggest blow.
After seeing all the detailed evidence and knowing the truth, he almost broke down.
"How is this possible … That's just a novel …"
Justin pulled his hair with both hands. "I … I didn't mean it … Oh my god … What did I do?"
"Okay! I hope you can cooperate with our investigation and do your duty as a Federation citizen! "
Lucius stared at Justin opposite him, but he was deciding whether he should use a truth-telling serum from the start.
"The reason why I had this idea … was because I had a strange dream!"
Fortunately, after going crazy for a long time, Justin finally calmed down and began to confess. "In the dream, I dreamed of that Samsara space, and there were many ideas and ideas. After I woke up, I remembered them very clearly, so I started to compose … But, in the process of composing …"
At this point, a trace of doubt appeared on his face.
"What happened in the process of composing? Don't let go of a single detail! "
Lucius inquired.
"It's hard to describe that feeling. It's as if there's another person holding my hand to compose!"
Justin at last revealed the secret.
"I see …"
Lucius then asked for a lot of information, especially about Justin's structure and rules of the World of Samsara. As the author of the original work, some of his ideas could be used to speculate about the behavior patterns of other Reincarnators and explore the rules of that space. All of these had extremely high reference value.
…
"How is it? Professor! "
After the interrogation, Lucius came to the main control room and saw Professor Luther, who was reading "The World of Samsara."
"Incredible! Truly incredible! "
Professor Luther's expression was solemn. "If such a space really exists, its ruler is undoubtedly God!"
Even though he had confidence in the Federation's final secret weapon, that was based on the premise that the other party was in the same space as him. If that existence was really like what was described in the novel, a mere planet might not be much in the eyes of the other party.
"We can only pray now that the other party has an urgent need for this world …"
Luther made a religious gesture, and his eyes suddenly lit up. "If possible, I really want to go to that space to take a look …"
