Chapter 782: God's Canned Knowledge (2)
【Frankly speaking.jpg】
[Dude, you're really brave! ]
[I was initially indifferent, but after seeing this sentence, I was instantly hooked. I just love this crazy vibe!]
[Did you think of Brother Bai when you said this? Brother Bai will arrive at the battlefield in three seconds. All units, please prepare for battle!]
[Brother Bai: You're the only one who wants to touch my little cotton-padded jacket?]
[You are not serious, are you? ]
He seems to be really serious!
“…This is certainly not a joke.”
Caesar slowly retracted his pair of sharp, aggressive eyes and leaned back.
Caesar leaned against the curved backrest of an old wooden chair, tapping the armrests with his fingertips. His tone was casual, yet it revealed a seriousness that could not be ignored:
"After all, you are beings transformed from the essence of the Advent One and the Natural Demon God—a miracle from the origin of the world."
"To say I have no interest in this... would be a true lie."
He raised the corners of his lips slightly, and his eyes swept over the other person like a probe, as if he had penetrated the flesh and blood, peeking into his inner structure:
"Only through the most thorough dissection can we truly analyze your physiological structure and reveal the mysteries of life that transcend the mundane. Therefore, what I just said was no joke."
"but--"
As soon as he changed his words, Caesar suddenly raised his hand and lightly stroked the air with his fingertips, as if tearing the curtain of space.
The next moment, a tome so thick that it was almost suffocating appeared out of thin air. The cover was mottled and engraved with ancient runes and the emblem of the House of the Decrees.
Caesar placed it gently on the table with a dull sound, and then turned to one of the pages. The paper was yellowed and the handwriting was vigorous.
"According to Article 28 of the Regulations for the Administration of the Council of Ordinances, Research, members of the Council of Ordinances are strictly prohibited from participating in any form of live human experimentation or involuntary research."
He recited softly, his tone calm, yet with a barely perceptible smile: "This one... was written by me personally back then."
"So, you can rest assured. Although I am obsessed with knowledge, I will not trample on the laws I have set."
He raised his eyes, a deep smile flashing in them: "If I really want to operate on your bodies... I have to wait until your lives are completely gone."
After saying this, Caesar tilted his head slightly, his eyes fixed on Iya, a rare softness and playfulness emerging in his eyes:
"What's more... this adorable little fellow has such a connection with Liyue's mighty Marshal Tianfeng, who holds military power."
"If I dare to put this 'academic passion' into action..." He sighed softly, as if he had foreseen the doomsday scene.
"I'm afraid the Marshal will instantly cross the mountains and seas, come straight here from Liyue, smash my head in one blow, and then scatter my ashes into the endless sea, leaving no trace."
He shrugged, his smile growing, his tone filled with exaggerated awe and self-mockery:
"Honestly, if I had a choice, I would rather live another 500 years and continue to pursue the truth of this vast world - rather than sacrifice myself for science today and end up with nothing left."
It’s good to be self-aware.
[They are in stark contrast to the Xuanjian siblings. One never tells the truth, while the other never tells a lie.]
【Just say it if you have something to say.jpg】
[With courage and self-awareness, you will succeed in anything you do.]
[I don't know much else, but I only know that after these words were spoken, Brother Bai immediately withdrew his Feng Qi Fu Mo and Chi Xiao.]
……
Fengdeng Tower.
"You're sensible. For the sake of the Great Ci Tree King, I'll let you go this time." Seeing Caesar's clear explanation, Jun Bai snorted coldly.
Then he put away Fengqi Fumo and Chixiao.
Then he moved the whetstone in front of him back to the corner.
When Caesar said he wanted to dissect Iya, Jun Bai was not angry. He just silently took out his spear, sword, and a whetstone and began to sharpen his weapons.
If Caesar had not explained in time, Jun Bai would probably have been on his way to Xumi by now.
……
Upon hearing this, Ying and Yiya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and their tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
As long as it doesn't require dissection, everything is negotiable!
"In that case, then...about the meeting with the little auspicious grass king..." Ying raised her head cautiously and asked Caesar tentatively.
Just now, this wise man casually proposed to dissect her and Yiya, which caused a storm of shock in Ying's heart. She could hardly look at this important figure in the Court of Ecclesiastes with a normal heart.
"If you mean the meeting with the Little King of Auspicious Grass."
Caesar nodded slightly, his eyes deep and calm, as if he was weighing some invisible scale.
He spoke slowly:
"This matter is indeed of great importance, and your reasons are quite sufficient. Moreover, Ming Yuan is willing to guarantee you."
Caesar took a deep breath, his tone still calm: "If it were in the past, I might have agreed without hesitation."
"Really? That's great!" Paimon's eyes suddenly lit up and he cheered, as if he had seen the dawn of hope.
The corners of Yiya's mouth also rose quietly, revealing a gentle smile of relief.
Only Ying felt her heart sink suddenly.
She keenly captured the subtle turn in Caesar's words - he said "in the past".
Sure enough, the next moment, Caesar's lips curled up into an almost perfect smile, gentle and elegant, like a spring breeze, as if what he was about to say next was not a rejection, but a considerate comfort.
"Therefore, regarding your request now... I regret that I cannot grant it."
"Okay—eh?"
Paimon's originally high-pitched voice suddenly stopped, the joy on his face froze in an instant, and then turned into astonishment and confusion, and his tone took a sharp turn for the worse, as if he had fallen from the clouds into a deep valley.
"Could it be...could it be because I said bad things about you behind your back before?"
"I'm really sorry. I sincerely apologize to you. Please forgive me!"
"We have to meet the Little Auspicious Grass King no matter what! Please, introduce her to us!"
Paimon thought that it was because of his previous careless words that offended Caesar that the noble sage was unwilling to take them to see the little Lucky Grass King.
So he apologized anxiously, his voice filled with a bit of grievance and earnestness.
However, in the face of Paimon's sincere apology, Caesar simply glanced at her lightly, his expression calm and majestic, and then said in a calm but unquestionable tone:
"Do I look like the kind of person who would let personal grudges interfere with official business?"
