Fox Has No Malicious Intent-Chapter 749 - 747: Treasure Tree’s Sack, Extremely Spacious
"Doesn't Unos work 24/7? How does he have time to call me so early in the morning..."
Looking at the name displayed on the screen, Ansheng muttered under his breath, reached out, and picked up the phone handed to him by the Triangular Hammer, saying:
"Hello? What's up? Calling me early in the morning and disturbing a fox's dreams..."
Hearing Master Fuli's teasing inquiry, Unos on the other end glanced out the window at the setting sun in the west, swallowed his coffee, and said:
"It's 4 PM here; our time difference is probably quite big... Anyway, I wanted to talk about the post you made on your social media, not remind you to get up at night for a pee."
While speaking, Unos's peripheral vision casually glanced towards the direction of the research institute's reception desk.
"The family of the main character from the defeated game, knowing I recently attended an exchange meeting in Xia Country, are calling the institute non-stop. They basically want to know: should they save dinner for them tonight?"
The Life Miracle Research Institute where Unos worked had come to a complete standstill.
The reason for this standstill was the phone calls; whether it's the receptionist or clerical staff, calls were even going directly to the Level-5 virus protection lab, forcing researchers to take off their protective suits and answer the phone.
There's no choice.
The callers are capricious investors, and it concerns the life and death of core members of the Longevity Club.
With the research institute overwhelmed with information, Unos could only make a call to ask Master Fuli whether to give them a death sentence or some form of deferred punishment, to placate those investors.
"Oh... you're talking about Vimal and the others? They won't have time to go home for meals for the foreseeable future, so their families don't need to save dinner for them."
"As for when they can go home, that might depend on when they pass their exams, right?" Ansheng glanced at the landowner making waves in the sea and said to Unos calmly, "They've just gone out to sea; we won't let them starve or thirst, don't worry!"
"So they've already sunk into the sea? Alright, I'll pass that on to them truthfully..."
Unos nodded slightly, seemingly unconcerned about Vimal and the others' fate.
In fact, he really doesn't care; just because a family leader dies doesn't mean there's an end to the family, even if they change the leader, the successor will continue to join the Longevity Club and pay membership fees after dealing with corporate affairs.
"I've understood the situation, and also, I've got some interesting data on my end that I was planning to share with you and Li Wenkang in a group chat in a few days..."
Shaking his head, Unos pushed aside thoughts of the Peace Island members, speaking with a tinge of amusement in his voice: "The Federation's geodetic organization recently submitted the latest survey data, based on the Global Geodetic Observation System."
"Every three years, they conduct an academic conference measuring the land area of Blue Star. However, something interesting has come up: according to the data from that system, Blue Star seems to be getting bigger."
"Although the data change is small, the increase in land area is indeed real, not a margin of error." Unos spoke with a smile, "Tectonic activity is becoming more active, and the frequency of earthquakes is increasing annually."
The annual number of earthquakes on Blue Star is actually counted in the millions, but of these millions, 99% are micro-earthquakes that humans cannot feel, detectable only with equipment like seismographs.
For example, before 2020, the average annual number of earthquakes was about three million.
But after 2020, the average annual number rose to four million, with the count increasing each year.
"So... are you saying Blue Star is like a guy on sildenafil, going from feeble to potent?"
Curiously, Ansheng asked, "Isn't it common knowledge that Blue Star is entering a Spiritual Particles Revival Cycle?"
"That's not wrong, but what I wanted to say is that Blue Star might be reverting to its original form, which was not expected." Unos reminded Master Fuli:
"Some Spirit Particle Ruins that have been buried and ignored due to tectonic movements might resurface with Blue Star's changes." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
"Current data is being compiled and analyzed by supercomputers, but based on known data, we might not be able to treat major earthquakes as mere ordinary geological disasters in the future..."
"Tectonic activity... could bring us surprises similar to the 'Crimson King.'" Unos opened up about his recent discoveries and predictions from the lab.
The stranger Blue Star gets, the better the yield of Spiritual Particles.
Though there would be some downsides, overall, it would still be more beneficial than harmful for life on Blue Star.
In context and club interests, Unos shouldn't be telling Master Fuli and Li Wenkang about this yet, but rather wait for a couple of major earthquakes and capitalize on them using the geological data provided by the Geodetic Organization.
However...
The club isn't his. He works there, drinks coffee that's straight from capsule machines.
Occasionally selling out the club to trade for perks akin to a visa and to build a relationship with Fuli feels quite good to Unos.
With those club members being stingy, he doubts they'd invest a trillion in star exploration research over fifteen years.
Whoever is willing to invest in this regard, Unos naturally felt fondness for that force and would provide whatever assistance he could.
"Got it, I'll tell Old Li about what you said, and we'll pull everyone into a group chat to discuss in detail later."
After hearing what Unos had to say, Ansheng didn't say much more, simply acknowledging.
In essence, what Unos said could be divided into two parts. The first part was providing Li Wenkang with research direction so he could gather relevant data and eventually join a group chat for discussion.
The other part was telling him not to fear major earthquakes but to rush over to witness the unearthing of some antiques.
To this...
Ansheng had no particular thoughts; the Peace Island operation had shattered Royal Mutual Benefit's upper ranks, and reimbursed two multi-role fighters, two destroyers, and a frigate.
The world is vast, so why can't he go wherever he wants?
If someday a major earthquake happens, he'll go and watch if he has time.
"Wow..."
"Wow wow—"
Just after hanging up the phone, Ansheng wore a pondering expression, prepared to log into an overseas social media platform to see how much buzz his work had created.
At that moment, a series of "wow wow" calls interrupted his action.
Treasure Tree, who seldom showed up, stood in front of a destroyer carrying a sack and waved at Master Fuli.
Treasure Tree said: Later, what transportation are we using to go back? I have several large sacks here.
"???"
Ansheng stood there dumbfounded, staring at the bulging sacks Treasure Tree had brought back. Those things were about two meters high, but the sack lengths seemed to be a monstrous seven or eight meters.
"What did you put inside? I haven't even picked up anything, but you sure looted the place?"
"Wow?"
Treasure Tree was taken aback, loosened the sack opening, and rummaged inside before pulling out a maid, pushing her forward.
You already have this thing, don't you?
"Uh..."
The maid, bewildered, wore an embarrassed expression, pressing down her uplifted short skirt.
Ansheng: "....."
