"Don't be excited, Grandmaster Lu, I've actually been watching you for a long time."
Chen Hongyu said with a faint smile.
"I'm just an ordinary martial artist, what could possibly interest Dr. Chen?" Lu Yuan asked.
"At sixteen, reaching the Martial Arts Extreme Realm isn't something just any martial artist can do."
Chen Hongyu walked over to the glass jar beside him.
"If you study history closely, you will find."
"Throughout the long river of time, there's always a small group of people who seem to have some kind of inherent mission, and they possess extraordinary talent in certain domains."
"Success, which is the lifelong pursuit of ordinary people, is merely at their fingertips."
"They can easily obtain unimaginable wealth, fame, status, and power that ordinary people cannot imagine."
"For instance, Wang Mang, who many netizens jokingly call a Transmigrator, and Liu Xiu, the Son of the World."
"Ordinary people often attribute their achievements to talent or luck, but I think differently."
"Especially with the appearance of Grandmaster Lu, which further proves my speculation."
Chen Hongyu adjusted his glasses and spoke affirmatively.
"What are you trying to say?"
Lu Yuan frowned heavily.
Since stepping into this laboratory, he had lost control of the situation.
Despite being in the Martial Arts Extreme Realm.
Yet this ordinary person's every move could easily control the pace of the conversation, pushing Lu Yuan completely into a passive position.
Thinking of this.
The killing intent in Lu Yuan's heart grew even stronger.
"The body is merely a shell, you can kill me right now."
"But by doing so, you will miss the truth of this world."
In Chen Hongyu's words, there was a kind of enlightenment that transcended life and death.
"Since you haven't acted, Grandmaster Lu."
"Then allow me to make an introduction for you."
He walked to the first glass jar on the left, pointing to a head soaked in a nutrient solution.
Inside was a young man.
His features were average, with bangs on his forehead, and he had a resemblance to a baboon in his eyebrows.
His eyes were closed, as if he were merely sleeping.
"Chen Daozai, male, Qian Country, at the age of eight in Las Vegas, won 30 million with 20 dollars of pocket money, becoming famously known as the boy gambling prodigy."
"The reason he was called a gambling prodigy was because statistics show that in ten rounds, he would definitely lose nine."
"But he only needed to win one to make a miraculous comeback!"
Chen Hongyu recited with great familiarity.
"Nova, bring up his memory."
As soon as he finished speaking.
A high-definition projection appeared in front of Lu Yuan.
In the picture.
A teenager in a black suit, spiritedly sitting at the gambling table, with tens of millions of chips stacked high before him.
Countless blonde beauties surrounded him, eager to cling to him entirely.
His signature move, holding a cup of cappuccino, even appeared on Time magazine, imitated by countless people.
Seeing these images.
Lu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, sensing a bad premonition.
Because if he remembered correctly.
This talent was recorded in the talent atlas of the Main World.
C-level Talent, lose nine out of ten bets!
"And this one."
Following Chen Hongyu's finger, Lu Yuan looked at another glass jar.
The head inside belonged to a middle-aged man, wearing black-rimmed glasses, somewhat balding, with a perpetually meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth.
He appeared gentle and refined, like a university professor.
"Zhang San, male, Qian Country national, has committed dozens of heinous crimes, but each time managed to escape legal scrutiny for various reasons."
"He even robbed a bank in broad daylight, only to be acquitted in court due to lack of evidence!"
At this point.
Chen Hongyu's tone appeared unusually agitated.
Because the situation was too ridiculous.
Even a fool could sense something amiss.
Lu Yuan remained silent.
Just hearing the description, he speculated about this person's talent.
B-level Talent, Lawless Madman!
"And this one."
Chen Hongyu pointed again to a glass jar.
Inside soaked the head of a man with a buzzcut.
From his deep-set features, it was clear he was a foreigner.
"Mike, Lighthouse Country national, senior engineer, worked at a top global construction company with an annual salary over a million, yet imprisoned due to a zero-dollar purchase."
"He has been imprisoned in dozens of prisons."
"But even when bound hand and foot, locked in an alloy-built chamber, with a Martial Arts Grandmaster guarding him 24 hours a day."
"He would still manage to escape in unexpected ways!"
Chen Hongyu's tone carried a hint of helplessness.
For even the Red Lotus Headquarters Base, acclaimed to be mosquito-proof, had been broken out of by Mike several times.
Lu Yuan had already guessed this person's ability.
No doubt about it.
This was the Main World's A-level Talent.
Can be imprisoned, but not confined!
"As for this one."
"He's my mentor and the founder of the Ark Plan."
Chen Hongyu went to the end of the glass jars, where a head of a middle-aged man was soaked.
"Li Yun, male, from Qian Country, college entrance exam top scorer at age six, graduated from Qingbei at age ten, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences at age fifteen."
"Single-handedly led major breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and genetic engineering, and first proposed the concept of digital life."
"In front of him, I am just a toddler learning to walk."
"But twenty years ago, when the Ark Plan was about to make a major breakthrough, he suddenly died without any warning."
"Yet it was he who let me understand the hidden truth of this world."
Chen Hongyu sighed, turning to look at Lu Yuan.
"So, how should I address you?"
"Transmigrator?"
"Or Outer Heaven People?"
Lu Yuan did not answer.
In fact.
Chen Hongyu already had the answer in his heart, he did not need Lu Yuan to answer.
After all, some Simulators have overly special talent.
No matter how they disguise themselves.
But as long as someone pays heed, it's easy to spot the difference in Simulators.
Not to mention.
In the Main World's concept.
The first simulation is simple, no different from a single-player game.
Many reckless novice Simulators disdain covering their edge.
"I want to know, how did you turn them into brains in a vat?"
Lu Yuan was silent for a moment, then asked.
Simulators have the protection of the Will of the Heavens.
Upon sensing danger, they can immediately exit the current reincarnation.
Even the Heavenly Dao Will of this world cannot stop them.
Yet Chen Hongyu managed to forcibly keep these people's consciousness in this world.
This was almost unimaginable for many Simulators.
"No, in fact, they are already dead, what you see are just specimens."
Chen Hongyu shook his head.
"Transforming them is simple, just a dose of enhanced anesthetic can make them lose consciousness."
"During their unconscious time, with current technology, it is already enough to transform them into a brain in a vat."
"When their consciousness is awakened, artificial intelligence will use big data to simulate their previous living environment and life experiences."
"Making them mistakenly think that they are still living in their past real world."
"But it's very difficult to pry into their memory."
"You people seem to have some self-destruct mechanism in your minds."
"If it involves certain secrets, it will automatically lead to brain death."
Chen Hongyu explained in detail without hesitation.
Lu Yuan looked at those heads soaked in nutrient液, feeling a kindred sorrow in his heart.
The initial simulation carries very low risk.
But who would have thought.
That such a freak like Chen Hongyu would appear in this world?
