Hearing the MDT's scream, Hao Ren was shocked. "It ran away?! Isn't it here? "
"Its consciousness is gone!" The MDT knocked the container with its sharp horn. "The brain monster left its body, but its consciousness is gone! It's empty inside, and there's only a pile of pork belly left! "
Hao Ren grabbed the MDT. "Don't disgust me when you're so busy. Can you trace its escape?"
"No, we didn't expect the brain monster to have such a trick," the MDT said as it connected itself to the lab's mainframe and instantly retrieved all the monitoring logs. "… We were careless. The brain monster's mental skills are superb. It doesn't necessarily need another body to transfer its consciousness. This guy must have uploaded its soul through some kind of wireless connection … We thought the protective crystal was foolproof, but that thing can only stop the brain monster from invading other people's bodies, it can't stop its consciousness from slipping out from here."
"It must be because it's not sealed enough …" Hao Ren's brows knit together. He was also surprised by the brain monster's incredible jailbreak. But since he was experienced and knowledgeable now, he accepted the fact and quickly deduced the reason. "Wait a minute, if it could escape from this place by transmitting its consciousness from the beginning, why did it wait until now to escape? Wasn't it the best time to escape when we first came to the Plane of Dreams? "
The MDT's surface flashed as a large amount of data flowed through the holographic projection beside it. "It must have been waiting for an opportunity because the laboratory's surveillance was very tight. Unauthorized information flow could easily be monitored … Yes, it was when Eva went crazy!"
Hao Ren suddenly realized what the problem was.
When Eva went berserk, the Petrachelys had diverted almost all the power from the power furnace to the shields and engines. At that time, the other facilities in the spacecraft were kept at a minimum level of operation. Most of the equipment in the laboratory was also turned off, leaving only the necessary security procedures to monitor the equipment here. The brain monster must have taken advantage of that time to escape.
"We need to improve the assessment of the brain monster's perception. It has the ability to perceive the moment when these monitoring devices relax." Hao Ren grabbed his hair with a depressed look. "And we can no longer use this conventional laboratory to detain the brain monster. They must be kept in a sealed container similar to CARS."
The MDT shook its body. "Let's wait until we catch the other brain monster first."
"I hope Ophra is more capable." Hao Ren shrugged helplessly. "Tsk tsk, of all times, I still have a lot of reports to write … Why do I feel that these brain monsters are more difficult to deal with than the First Born?"
At this moment, the door of the lab slid open silently. Lily tiptoed in like a thief. When she found that no one had chased her out, she immediately trotted to Hao Ren's side. "Mr. Landlord, Mr. Landlord, I'm here to help … Ugh, I'm here to help! How did the brain monster react? "
Vivian also walked in behind Lily. She rolled her eyes helplessly at the husky. Apparently, she was dragged here.
Hao Ren spread out his hand. "No response — it's gone."
He then told the two ladies what happened here, and the two ladies were surprised. Lily's ears drooped. "Aha, I thought it was fun again. What do we do then? Is this brain monster useless? "
Vivian touched the container thoughtfully, looked at the brain monster inside and nodded. "Actually, I want to say that I can make brains …"
Hao Ren was gloomy about his performance. When he heard Vivian's words, he almost fell to the ground. "Vivian … Vivian, take it easy! I've decided not to have dinner. What else do you want? "
Even Lily was stunned. She glanced at the bat and turned to look at the brain monster. "This … is too challenging even for me."
Vivian shrugged. "I'm kidding. I'm not a pervert. I don't even eat humans, let alone giants' brains. "
Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at the body of the brain monster. "But this brain has mutated too much. If I hadn't seen the scans of the giants with my own eyes, who would have believed that it used to be a humanoid creature."
After thinking about how to deal with the brain monster, Hao Ren took out his containment box from his Dimensional Pocket and put the soulless flesh into the box. He decided to show this to Raven 12345. That would be an explanation to her.
After that, he announced that the matter on Io was over and was ready to return home.
Of course, according to the rules, he set up a portal before he left. There was no land on this planet, and the few offshore platform ruins were destroyed when Eva went berserk. So, the portal was set up in the deep sea with a metal protective cabin outside. It could be expanded if needed in the future.
The Petrachelys left Io's orbit. Everyone watched the shining Planet of Water slowly turn into a crystal blue ball behind the spacecraft, and then enter hyperspace. The siren queen, Shaqira, and Sorma stayed on the observation platform at the rear of the spacecraft. They did not leave even after seeing their home planet disappear into the darkness. Hao Ren and Nangong Wuyue came to the platform to look for them and found that the three sirens were still staring at the back of the spacecraft.
Hao Ren asked casually, "What's wrong? Do you want to stay? "
"A little," the Queen sighed. "When I was soaking in the sea of Io, I felt a wonderful peace of mind. This is something I have never felt on Earth. Even the water in the aqua dome of Nasaton did not give me such a strong feeling. It seems that the sirens are a race that remembers the smell of home very well … We are from that planet after all. "
Nangong Wuyue gently swayed her tail and wrapped the tip of her tail around Hao Ren's arm. "I have the same feeling, but not as strong as Her Majesty."
Shaqira looked at Hao Ren expectantly. "Can we stay? Or we can bring the news back to Nasaton and let some sirens who are willing to return to their hometown come over. They can rebuild their home in Io. That planet needs to be rebuilt. "
"I understand, I understand how you feel, but this is not up to me," Hao Ren spread out his hand. "The surface world and the Plane of Dreams are in a fragile state of balance. Every crossing of the Wall of Reality must be strictly monitored. Of course, in theory, it is safe to enter the Plane of Dreams from the Alamanda rift, but I can't guarantee that hundreds of thousands of immigrants will be safe. And there is a hidden danger: The Plane of Dreams is not peaceful. "
Seeing the doubts on Shaqira and Sorma's faces, Hao Ren sighed. "You think the brain monster in Nasaton is a big crisis? Let me tell you the truth, there are things in this place that are several times more dangerous than the brain monster, and they hate all creatures more than the brain monster. At present, I haven't figured out the limitations of those guys' abilities and activity patterns, so the possibility of them invading Io cannot be ruled out. Of course, they may not necessarily find Io, but for safety's sake, I still don't recommend you to come back and settle down. "
There was something that Hao Ren did not say clearly: he had enough troubles and really did not want to add more. And the First Born targeting the migrating sirens was undoubtedly the biggest of all. She was as busy as a grandchild every day, and she even had to be a nanny between two worlds. Who could stand it!
But he understood the thoughts of these mermaids and snakes. If the Plane of Dreams was peaceful in the future, he would be happy to help these girls move back — after all, he had moved a billion people …
The siren queen listened to Hao Ren and nodded. "I'm sorry to have troubled you."
After that, they returned to the Alamanda teleportation station. After putting away the Petrachelys, they returned to the deep Pacific Ocean via Andrea Castle.
The alert in Nasaton had been lifted, and the deep-sea city was busy with renovation and restoration. The previous hundred years of chaos and a fierce battle had damaged many parts of the city. The collapse of the palace was secondary, but the equipment that had not been maintained according to regulations for a hundred years was the most critical. Almost the entire city needed a thorough overhaul. But anyway, the bad times were over, and things would get better soon.
"The first thing is to restart the Great Wall." The siren queen looked at the sea abyss above Nasaton and spat out a string of bubbles briskly. Finally, she had completely retracted her thoughts from Io. "I'm not at ease to let the city be exposed on Earth … The sirens are a cautious race."
Nangong Sanba nodded. "Well, I know, I'm just a coward."
He was immediately whipped away by his sister's tail.
"Seriously, don't you plan to stay here for a few more days?" Shaqira looked at Hao Ren. "If you're not used to living underwater, we can create a dry area for you. Everyone in Nasaton wants to have more contact with you, and many people want to apologize or thank you — they are the soldiers who were controlled and the citizens who were rescued. "
Hao Ren laughed and looked up. "Next time … I still have a lot of things to do. Oh yes, this is for you. "
As Hao Ren spoke, he handed a shiny silver-white metal plate to the siren queen.
"What is this?"
"Your history and words," Hao Ren nodded. "Part of it was extracted from Eva's memory, and part of it was sorted out from my translation database. I think you'll definitely need this. The method of use is very simple. You can directly connect with it, and it has a holographic projection function. "
The siren queen solemnly bowed to Hao Ren and pressed the data disk to her chest. "Thank you. From now on, no matter how many generations change, you will be the best friends of the sirens. "
