The Liujia manor had been rebuilt. It was still a private manor, but the walls were much higher than before, almost like a citadel in Yang Zhou city.
For the next two weeks, Mo Qiong and Lord Gou both attended classes here.
It was impossible to return to their previous level without at least a year of hard work.
They could only try their best to make up for the basics, at the very least, to reach the level of a normal peripheral member.
Even so, they had to study day and night, their classes were arranged from morning to night. After two weeks of studying, they only managed to reach the level of an elite junior high student, still a bit away from becoming a top-notch junior high student.
"This Knowledge Devourer is so annoying, everything I learned after so many years is gone in a single wave" Lord Gou rubbed his eyes and complained.
The anomaly had completely washed them clean. After two weeks of hard work, they finally felt like they weren't so dumb anymore.
Mo Qiong smiled and threw an apple to Lord Gou: "But you don't say, this feeling of going from nothing to something, feeling like I'm becoming enlightened step by step is quite refreshing"
Studying made him happy, reminding him of the fulfilling years he spent on Limit Island.
Lord Gou rolled his eyes: "Then why don't you go and wash them clean again?"
Mo Qiong giggled: "No need, no need, let's go check on the anomaly research"
They went through the safe passage and arrived at the lab. Here, the white-clothed apparition and Jing Guan were both trapped in a secret room.
Of course, the physical defense of the secret room was quite ordinary, with only a simple concrete structure.
After all, if the white-clothed apparition wanted to leave, they couldn't be trapped, the only thing that could harm them was humans.
"How is it?" Mo Qiong saw that Adams and Jiang Long were also here.
"I don't know, I've only just arrived. I've been studying for the past few days, so I came here to relax a bit" Adams replied.
Mo Qiong walked in front of a computer and opened the archives to check the latest research reports.
After a while, he felt a bit of a headache.
A researcher came up and gave Mo Qiong a cup of coffee: "This anomaly has a theoretical possibility of being destroyed, but for us, it's unsolvable"
"What do you mean?" Mo Qiong decided to ignore the report and just listen to the researcher.
Because as an elite junior high student, Mo Qiong had basically said goodbye to the ability to read these internal reports by himself.
"With enough knowledge, you can kill the real body of the white cloth and completely destroy it. However, the problem lies in this' enough '. We discovered that its' blood volume 'is too thick. It's so thick that all the known natural science knowledge combined can only obliterate a thread … "said the researcher.
"What the hell is this?!" Lord Gou exclaimed.
The researcher said, "Because we succeeded in destroying a small part of it, it should be possible to destroy it. However, the cost of destroying this small part is too great. Three of our professors in the research department have been wiped clean."
"Just last week, the three of them chose to use all their knowledge and 1,000 soldiers who had undergone special training to focus their attacks on the same point at the same time …"
"In the end, other than whitening it, we only changed a few threads of the white cloth. It was very difficult to notice with the naked eye. We only saw it with a magnifying glass."
Everyone sighed. This was too despairing.
Could it be destroyed? Yes, perhaps the entire human race would be at the level of these three professors. Then, they would be able to eliminate it by launching a 'cleansing attack' at the same time.
But the price was too high, and it was impossible to achieve.
First of all, it was impossible for the entire human race to have such rich knowledge. Secondly, even if they did, it was impossible to mobilize so many people just to deal with this anomaly.
"To destroy it, either the quality is extremely high, or the quantity is extremely high, or … the only way is to wear it down over a long period of time" said the researcher.
Jiang Long pondered, "In terms of quality, if you want to kill it in one hit, I'm afraid only the Ultimate Truth of the Universe would be able to do it, right?"
"In terms of quantity, several billion senior researchers of the Lanbai Society?" Adams' mouth twitched.
Mo Qiong said, "In terms of time … even if there are senior researchers attacking it with everything they have every day, it would still take … more than 16 million years?"
"Then what's the point of destroying it!?" Lord Gou chuckled. After 16 million years, who knows if there will still be humans.
This anomaly was also a joke. It could be destroyed, and it could just stand there and let you hit it.
But the 'ammunition' required was something the Lanbai Society couldn't afford.
"That's why we've already given up on destroying it. Let's just keep it in storage, that's how most anomalies are dealt with anyway"
Saying so, the researcher took a sip of coffee and continued, "It's quite easy to contain this anomaly. Every 42 hours, it will spawn a white-clothed phantom, as long as we can eliminate it and prevent it from having the chance to kill and reproduce, it won't pose much of a threat"
Lord Gou chuckled: "Spawn a son every 42 hours? It's easy to just send them one by one, they won't be able to develop "
Mo Qiong replied: "We've already kept it in storage, so it naturally won't be able to develop. But if something else happens to this base in the future, such as another anomaly destroying this place, and it just happens to spawn, a white-clothed phantom that escapes and develops, it would be even more dangerous than the Multiplication Wax Figurine"
Although the Multiplication Wax Figurine was able to reproduce at a steady rate, it wasn't as lethal as the white-clothed phantom, and it was also very mobile. Unless it was left to develop for more than half an hour, it wouldn't pose much of a threat.
Compared to that, the white-clothed phantom could go anywhere, let alone half an hour, if it entered a densely populated area and was left to develop for less than 10 minutes, it would turn into hundreds or even thousands of them.
The researcher continued: "That's why, we'll have to study how to move it later. After all, this location outside Yangzhou city isn't good, it'll often be affected by the flames of war in the future "
If it was a normal war, the Blue and White Society wouldn't be afraid. They would naturally invite the leaders of the various factions for tea to prevent them from attacking the containment base.
But they were afraid that if a containment incident occurred, they would be discovered nearby, or used by someone else to affect this base.
That's why it would be best to place the Knowledge Devourer in an uninhabited area.
The researcher continued: "Unfortunately, it's not possible. This anomaly's position seems to be fixed, it's forever anchored at this point relative to the Earth. We've tried to remove the entire piece of land it's at, but it's no use, it's still there "
"Perhaps we'll have to relocate the Earth as well to move it"
Lord Gou shrugged: "Perhaps even if we destroy the Earth, it'll still pretend that the Earth is beneath its feet while orbiting the Sun"
Mo Qiong chuckled: "In any case, we can't move it, right? Then there's nothing we can do, we'll just have to stay here and guard it. Oh right, has the method of strengthening the white-clothed ghostly shadow been tested? "
"Slaughter, this point has been confirmed. We deliberately sent a bunch of pigs and cows to the white-clothed ghostly shadow to kill, we found that although these animals didn't increase the number of people the white-clothed ghostly shadow has, they increased its attack range and range of activity" the researcher said.
Hearing this, everyone sighed in relief.
Because this kind of growth method was easy to handle, it was the easiest to control.
Without permission, they just had to not let any animals near it.
"Oh right, there's an experiment that needs your help, Mo Qiong … help send the small animals into that shadow space" the researcher said.
"No problem" Mo Qiong nodded.
The researchers had already confirmed that the white-clothed ghostly shadow would passively decapitate any lifeform with a head nearby.
The head here covered a very wide range.
If it was a lifeform, then it would be the place where the nerve center or brain was. If it was a special lifeform carrier, such as a Nascent Soul, then it would be cut open completely.
The experiment proved that even if the Eight Trigrams Dao Fruit wasn't in human form, it was still cut open by the white-clothed ghostly shadow, because it had the ability to think independently.
It was just that it didn't cut open from the head like a human-shaped Nascent Soul, but directly cut in half.
It was worth mentioning that only the deaths of humans were collected, the deaths of other animals only strengthened the white-clothed ghostly shadow.
Perhaps only humans with intelligence of the level of humans would have their corpses collected and the white-clothed ghostly shadow would be multiplied.
But this point had not been confirmed. They didn't have any non-human D-class personnel on hand now, there were some in the headquarters, but Mo Qiong couldn't go back now.
At this moment, Mo Qiong sent the nerveless sponges and brainless hydroids into the shadow space one after another, but he didn't get any feedback.
Then it was the same for vertebrates and primates.
"Do you want me to transfer D-class personnel from the low-dimensional world?" Now that the Blue and White Society had established diplomatic relations with the low-dimensional world, after an exchange of benefits, the low-dimensional world was willing to provide their death row criminals.
Adams said, "The low-dimensional people are too weak, you already did an experiment last time, after entering, there was only an additional white-clothed ghostly shadow outside."
"This time, send a live person."
Adams went to talk with Kublai Khan not long ago and settled that this few thousand acres of land belonged to the Blue and White Society. At the same time, he also asked for a lot of death row criminals.
Needless to say, there were too many death row criminals in this era, they could easily implicate countless people. Many of them were innocent relatives and were implicated.
Because of this, the Blue and White Society decided to make those death row criminals who were implicated as permanent employees.
This meant that although they were death row criminals, the Blue and White Society didn't treat them as such. They were a group of employees who were treated better than D-class personnel and were used to do some odd jobs, probably similar to the group of people brought by the transmigration notebook. Of course, they were also socially dead, in the outside world, they belonged to the group of people who were executed.
The rest of the bandits who had killed countless people were regarded as D-class personnel, there were at least a hundred of them.
After Mo Qiong sent a D-class personnel into the shadow space, a security guard eliminated the white-clothed ghostly shadow that appeared.
"Hello? If you can hear me, burn the note on your body and the photo on your collar. "Mo Qiong said telepathically.
As for the reply, he couldn't get it. Things like mental power could be forcefully sent in, but no message could be sent back. Mo Qiong seemed to have forever cut off that part of his mind.
After waiting for a while, he didn't get any response.
The researcher directly took out the communicator and said, "Begin randomization, draw the kidney of a D-class personnel."
