    Chapter 223

    Yashan, who had just been silenced by Su Hao's words, sat there in a daze.

    That tone...

    It was exactly the same as Boss Wei's.

    But something felt wrong.

    The voice sounded far too young.

    Unable to resist, Yashan turned toward Su Hao and whispered uncertainly,

    "...Boss Wei?"

    Only then did he finally notice something even stranger.

    Not only had Boss Wei's voice changed...

    His own voice sounded completely different as well.

    His body also felt unbelievably weak.

    The immense Blood Qi, overwhelming vitality, and terrifying strength he had painstakingly cultivated throughout his previous life had vanished without a trace.

    Countless questions flooded his mind.

    Su Hao immediately whispered,

    "It's me."

    "Don't speak."

    Yashan still looked confused.

    Seeing this, Su Hao directly used the Small Black Room to transmit his previous life's voice into Yashan's mind.

    "Yashan."

    "I am your Boss Wei."

    "From this moment onward..."

    "Keep your mouth shut."

    "Not another word."

    The familiar voice echoed directly inside his consciousness.

    Yashan's eyes widened instantly.

    Speaking directly into another person's mind...

    That was Boss Wei's unique ability.

    There was absolutely no possibility of mistaking it.

    His heart immediately filled with excitement.

    Boss Wei!

    He had finally found Boss Wei!

    The countless doubts that had accumulated over millions of years immediately surged into his mind.

    Boss Wei, where have you been all these years?

    Why did calling for you stop working?

    What happened to the terrifying monster that appeared in Temple Forest City?

    Why have we both become children?

    Where exactly is this place?

    Unfortunately...

    Boss Wei had ordered him not to speak.

    So Yashan could only force himself to suppress every question.

    It felt unbearably uncomfortable.

    ...

    While the two silently communicated through the Small Black Room, the skinny little boy sleeping on the third bed slowly opened his eyes.

    He looked blankly at Su Hao and Yashan.

    "Dada..."

    Just then...

    Hurried footsteps echoed through the corridor.

    Slippers slapped rapidly against the floor.

    Tap! Tap! Tap!

    The bedroom door flew open.

    Click!

    The light was switched on.

    The dim room instantly became brightly illuminated.

    Standing in the doorway was a woman wearing pajamas and slippers.

    She first anxiously swept her gaze across the room.

    Only after confirming that all three children were present did she finally let out a sigh of relief.

    The sudden brightness caused Su Hao and the others to squint.

    When they opened their eyes again...

    They saw the woman standing there.

    She possessed fair skin and delicate features.

    Her appearance was entirely different from the Zhu Huo people.

    At the sight of her...

    Yashan almost jumped out of bed.

    He had never seen such a clean-looking race.

    There was no soft fur covering the ears.

    The hair was perfectly straight instead of naturally curled.

    Most importantly...

    She was incredibly short.

    Even as an adult, she was only about as tall as a ten-year-old Zhu Huo child.

    If Boss Wei hadn't forbidden him from speaking...

    Yashan was certain he would already have pointed at her while shouting,

    "What race are you?"

    Before he could lose control, he happened to meet Su Hao's cold gaze.

    Instantly...

    His excitement disappeared.

    He obediently lowered his head.

    The woman looked at the three children in silence.

    The anger on her face visibly intensified.

    Finally...

    It exploded.

    She began scolding them rapidly in a language Su Hao had never heard before.

    Su Hao listened quietly.

    He couldn't understand a single word.

    He secretly sighed.

    "As expected..."

    "No matter how many languages I've learned..."

    "A new world always means starting over."

    Yashan, meanwhile, looked even more bewildered.

    Not understanding Boss Wei was one thing.

    Not understanding the woman was another.

    The skinny little boy immediately shrank beneath his blanket and desperately shook his head, repeatedly indicating that none of this had anything to do with him.

    After lecturing them for quite some time...

    The woman saw that Su Hao and Yashan remained obediently silent.

    Her anger gradually subsided.

    She gave several final instructions that neither of them understood.

    Click.

    The lights went out.

    Bang.

    The bedroom door closed.

    Her slippers gradually faded into the distance.

    ...

    Before the lights disappeared completely, Su Hao noticed something unusual behind the woman.

    Two enormous wolf-like beasts quietly followed behind her.

    One slowly patrolled the hallway.

    The other crouched low, as though ready to pounce at any moment.

    Each beast stood nearly two meters tall.

    Their bodies exceeded three meters in length.

    Their sharp fangs reflected the light.

    Even by Su Hao's standards...

    They appeared extraordinarily fierce.

    This immediately overturned one of his assumptions.

    This certainly looked like a modern society.

    But...

    It was obviously very different from the modern society he understood.

    ...

    Silence once again filled the room.

    Only after confirming that nobody else would enter did Su Hao once more enter the Marble Space.

    Little Light remained exactly as before.

    The countless Small Black Rooms also remained intact.

    The only difference...

    Every experimental consciousness that had once filled them had already been automatically erased by Little Light according to the preset rules.

    The countless Small Black Rooms now stood completely empty.

    Everything appeared perfectly normal.

    After carefully confirming that nothing had gone wrong, Su Hao quietly began planning his future.

    His priorities were already clear.

    The first task was naturally to cultivate Blood Qi as quickly as possible.

    Only by recovering enough strength to protect himself could he safely continue his research.

    Once his body reached the appropriate level...

    He would recreate the genetic modification solution.

    He intended to evolve directly into the Bone Demon sequence, obtaining its remarkable regenerative ability.

    Afterward...

    He would engrave the composite rune he had spent decades perfecting directly into his body.

    The composite rune combined Perception, Lightning, Fire Dragon, Barrier, and Hardening into a single integrated structure.

    With that complete...

    He would continue evolving into the Prophet sequence to once again strengthen his consciousness.

    Only then would he begin thoroughly exploring this entirely new world.

    Whatever knowledge existed here...

    He intended to learn every bit of it.

    As for Yashan...

    Since he had also arrived here...

    Su Hao naturally intended to keep him around.

    If Yashan behaved himself, he could serve as an assistant.

    If he caused trouble...

    Putting him back to sleep inside a Small Black Room was always an option.

    ...

    The following morning...

    Su Hao and the still-restless Yashan silently followed the skinny boy from the previous night.

    Whatever the boy did...

    They copied.

    After only half a day...

    They had already figured out the basic situation.

    This was a small orphanage.

    There were only a little more than a dozen children living here.

    The woman from the previous night was the owner.

    Everyone called her Sister Bai.

    Besides her, there were only two other adults.

    One was a freckled young woman.

    The other was a bespectacled man with short hair.

    Both looked gentle and harmless.

    For the moment...

    Food and shelter were no longer concerns.

    Su Hao quietly decided,

    "I'll stay here for now."

    "The priority is rebuilding my strength."

    Just then...

    Yashan quietly approached him, clearly wanting to ask countless questions.

    Without even looking at him...

    Su Hao simply reached over and turned Yashan's head toward the opposite direction.

    Yashan instantly fell silent again.

    ...

    Another year passed.

    Su Hao and Yashan both turned five years old.

    Throughout the entire year...

    The two children rarely spoke.

    In the eyes of everyone else, they were simply quiet children with extremely withdrawn personalities.

    Most of their time was spent secretly cultivating Blood Qi.

    Meanwhile...

    They gradually came to understand this world.

    Daily life appeared similar to modern civilization.

    Yet subtle differences existed everywhere.

    The topic most frequently discussed by people was...

    Summoners.

    And...

    Summoned Beasts.

    Almost the entire society revolved around them.

    Even technology seemed designed specifically to support summoners.

    Inside the orphanage's common room hung a circular television.

    Every single day...

    It broadcast either exploration documentaries featuring famous summoners...

    Or competitions between professional summoners.

    There was even a globally celebrated event known as the Summoner World Cup.

    Singles.

    Doubles.

    Team battles.

    Every category attracted enormous audiences.

    After observing for an entire year...

    Su Hao gradually reached a conclusion.

    This was indeed a modern technological civilization.

    But...

    Its technological development had advanced along an entirely different path.

    Naturally...

    His curiosity also grew stronger.

    However...

    What fascinated Su Hao was not the summoners themselves.

    Nor was it the summoned beasts.

    What truly captured his attention...

    Was space.

    Whether on television...

    Or in real life...

    Every summoned beast appeared instantly.

    One moment...

    Nothing existed.

    The next moment...

    A powerful beast materialized out of thin air.

    He had personally witnessed Sister Bai summoning those two enormous wolf-like beasts in the orphanage courtyard.

    There had been absolutely no warning.

    No transportation.

    No arrival.

    They had simply...

    Appeared.

    Which immediately raised a question.

    Where...

    Did summoned beasts actually come from?

    Another dimension?

    Another world?

    Or...

    Some entirely different form of space?

    The more Su Hao thought about it...

    The brighter his eyes became.

    A fire of curiosity slowly ignited within him.

    This world...

    Contained the secrets of space itself.

    And no matter what...

    He would uncover them.

    "The knowledge of this world..."

    "I will obtain all of it."

    Sharp-eyed Su Hao noticed something different just as the woman turned around. Behind the woman, there were two wolf-like beasts, one patrolling while the other crouched with its legs folded, ready to pounce.

    Is this a summoners world? Last world's information would be super useful here.

    Edit: I read further and it is indeed a summoners world
