Chapter 1317: Outliers

"Stop! In this sacred place, everyone here must remain calm.

Your guess is correct, the scene I'm presenting so far is a drop of dark blue liquid from the mysterious crystal of that moment.

As you can see, just one drop can completely "freeze" everything within a radius of several thousand meters.

Of course, the word freeze doesn't quite accurately describe what is happening in this area.

Because in this area, everything we can perceive, including time, space, energy, and matter, has fallen into absolute stagnation, and even the weapons used to kill the gods cannot cause even the slightest damage.

So I have reason to believe that the two babies did not appear by some kind of coincidence, as initially suspected.

Contrary!

Their appearance was most likely arranged!

I believe that Oren has the most say on this point. ”

With that, the presiding officer of the meeting turned his attention to the senior mentor of Darrant, who was standing not far away and listening.

When the latter heard his name, he immediately took two steps forward and bowed deeply to the old guys sitting in the chairs: "This is my honor!"

"As the child's raiser, now you can tell you all the unusual things he has shown over the years. It's important to remember that your words will determine the future of the entire civilization. The presiding officer of the meeting reminded with a serious expression.

"I understand!"

Oron nodded earnestly.

"To put it simply, from a very young age, he showed unusual intelligence and precociousness.

It may be difficult to understand how he differs from his gifted peers alone, but you just have to imagine that the way of thinking of a baby, which is supposed to be a blank sheet of paper, should be influenced by the knowledge he is exposed to, the environment around him, and the teachings of adults.

But he's different!

His way of thinking seems to have been fixed since birth!

No matter how much I tried to influence, correct, or even induce, he was determined to learn, think, and even create many concepts that I couldn't even understand.

I strongly suspect that he, and his race, have an innate gift for passing on the experience and knowledge accumulated by the previous generation to future generations by blood......"

"Wait!"

A Darent, aged like a dried corpse, suddenly interrupted Oron's words and questioned in a slightly majestic voice, "You mean, we've been doing all these years of useless work? That kid has always understood that he is different from us, and he will not choose to integrate into our civilization?"

"Yes!"

Without thinking, Oren replied in the affirmative.

As the closest person to the boy, he can clearly feel that the older he gets, the darker side of the other person's heart becomes, and even the Darents who are keen to conquer one world after another become more ruthless and ruthless.

Obviously, this is by no means the inner world that a boy should show, there must be some unknown force that has a huge impact.

"Looks like our original plan failed, didn't it?" the old man, who looked like a dried corpse, pursed the corners of his mouth, his tone full of irony.

"No! we can't say defeat yet! At least he hasn't betrayed us yet, but is leading an expeditionary force to reconquer the world. What's more, don't we still have a backup plan? The power of the bloodline is the most important thing, as long as his bloodline can be integrated into us, sooner or later we will figure out what happened to him. Patience is a valuable quality, and rushing to conclusions is not a good habit. Another old man retorted.

When it comes to the boy who suddenly appeared twelve years ago, the Darrants have in fact been divided into two opposing factions.

One of them believes that the child should be sent directly to the laboratory for in-depth research while the child is not yet able to resist, and it is best to find out directly where that incredible terrifying magical talent came from through cloning or hybridization.

There is also a school of thought that such a treatment of a unique and incomparably precious intelligent life must be treated with extreme care, and it is best to be able to integrate it completely, hence the titular Guru of Oren.

"Didn't you hear what Oron just said? That kid has some kind of inheritance power, he won't be affected by the outside world. Think about it from another perspective, if you find that you look different from everyone around you, and there is a huge gap in the way you think, do you still feel like one of them? No, you don't, you either think you're an outlier, and then you gradually develop a sense of alienation and strangeness. Admit it, your original good idea has failed, and you have created a monster, a monster that has learned the most cutting-edge technology and knowledge of an entire civilization. The corpse-like old man mercilessly tore off the last fig leaf.

Just as the other old man was about to say something, the presiding officer of the council finally couldn't help but shout to stop: "That's enough! We're not talking about what to do with that boy! First of all, it's certain that it's the most terrifying thing we've ever known, and it's impossible to crack it, or even whether it's matter or energy. ”

"So what?"

In the corner, a silent black figure suddenly leaned forward, revealing a vague face.

"So we have to do everything we can to get to the bottom of it! It's a huge project, and it's not something that one or two people or one or two research institutes can do. We must concentrate the forces of the whole civilization! In addition to that, with regard to the other boy, I think it is necessary to repair the passage as soon as possible and bring him back from that primitive, backward, and ignorant world. ”

"Fixing the teleportation channel? That magic ritual has only been mastered by a dozen casters so far. ”

"Order the remaining hands to act! In any case, no accident should be made to the other boy. I have a hunch that I will find some details in him that we have overlooked before. ”

"In that case, send the order over. In the meantime, I suggest that everyone who is doing everything in their hand should devote all their efforts to the study of the dark blue liquid inside the crystal. If it is truly a weapon created by some higher civilization, we must find a way to crack it before the enemy arrives. ”

"Agreed!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"
