Chapter 582: Chapter 251 Two Guesses_1

Thomas blinked vigorously, but the building continued to melt slowly, and the Big Fox remained motionless in the red light.

It must be my eyes playing tricks on me, he told himself.

By the time he regained his senses, Professor Yao had finished asking questions and began summarizing some details behind the incident.

"The Two-Dimensional Evolution Laboratory, to give its full name, is the ’Observability of Homogeneous Lifeforms Emerging under the Conditions of an Additional Z-Dimension Mapping from the X-Y Dimensionally Effective World and a Comparative Analysis of Multiple Models Laboratory,’ " the professor said in one breath, paused and added, "As the name is somewhat complicated, everyone prefers a simpler name— the Two-Dimensional Evolution Laboratory."

Thomas rubbed his nose and nodded seriously, indicating that he understood the previous explanation.

"...The purpose of this experiment, put simply, is to create a standardized ascension pathway for Grand Wizards by observing the evolution of two-dimensional lifeforms into three-dimensional lifeforms. Of course, the likelihood of applying the experience of ascending from two to three dimensions to the process of ascending from three dimensions to higher dimensions is as ridiculous as successfully seducing Zeus with a cow—not that there isn’t a microscopic chance of this happening, but the gains wouldn’t justify the losses."

"In this sense, the ’Two-Dimensional Evolution Experiment’ still has many deficiencies and shortcomings."

"However, as is often said, we learn from others to improve ourselves. The transformation of life from a low dimension to a high dimension always has similar and referential aspects... which is the very reason this laboratory was established."

"In other words, the process of two-dimensional life evolving into three-dimensional life will occur in this laboratory," Zhang Yu turned to look at the melting building, muttered thoughtfully.

"So, a two-dimensional being evolved tonight in the laboratory?" Thomas frowned, staring at the gradually dimming red light, sensing he was forgetting something important.

"Up to now, that’s what I think." said Old Yao, biting on his pipe, caressing his smooth bald head with a worrying expression on his face. "Theoretically, during this process, at a particular time, various energy factors will continuously leap from low dimensions to higher dimensions... this process would be accompanied by a massive upheaval and consumption of magic power."

"Originally, the school estimated the scale of this magic power upheaval and conducted multiple pressure tests repeatedly to provide the lab with a separate and powerful magic power supply."

"But looking at the situation tonight, our pressure test seems somewhat conservative."

"Oh, I remember!" The blond-haired, green-eyed young assistant suddenly clapped his hands, exclaiming, "I just felt that I was forgetting something... I mean, I always thought that the Wizard Alliance banned individuals from the Moon-Down Council from participating in any ’Dimensional Fluctuation’ experiment. Didn’t they dismantle the experiment lab of the Dark Blue Castle sometime ago? The school allowing a delegate from the Moon-Down Council to run such a significant laboratory, wouldn’t that invite trouble from the Alliance?"

"The lab just exploded, and you’re still worried about this?" Zhang Yu finally couldn’t stand it and grunted aside.

"Just occasionally remembering, occasional." Thomas smiled awkwardly, waved his hand, and sneakily glanced at Old Yao.

But Professor Yao didn’t seem to think his question was weird.

"Many people have had the same concerns you do, but rest assured, the School Work Committee Legal Department has been in constant communication with Danghag on this matter, ensuring everyone has a consistent understanding of the Alliance’s current polices."

"According to existing legislation, the Alliance only forbids the spread of ’Massive Destructive Spells’ but does not prevent any official wizard figure from exploring the ’truth’ of this world..."

"However, generally speaking, this level of ’accident’ shouldn’t occur in a lab conducting basic theoretical research," Thomas defended in a low voice, "it looks like a high-level dimensional fluctuation experiment has just been conducted."

"That’s why I brought Baoyangzi over, he has more experience in this regard..." At this point, Professor Yao took a deep breath, exhaled heavily, and a trace of puzzlement appeared on his face. "Theoretically, the equipment in this laboratory only supports ’one-way Ascend Dimension experiments’ and cannot possibly trigger the Alliance’s ban..."

"I never expected to experience the might of a ’Forbidden Curse’ up close." A cold voice came from the red light, interrupting Professor Yao’s words.

The two assistants immediately looked up, anxiously looking towards the direction of the voice.

The red light had not yet dissipated.

But the fox holding the large light ball had disappeared from the red light, and in an instant, a beautiful figure appeared before the three.

"Well, you came out so quickly." Old Yao chuckled, poking his head to look behind the witch: "Where’s Baoyangzi? Is everyone else alright?"

"They’re all alive." The witch held a football-sized light ball in her arms, her face was as pale as death, her voice was still calm, but anyone could feel the repressed rage from her tone: "I’m lucky to have become a Grand Wizard... you never told me that basic research could be so dangerous!"

"I didn’t know either! This wasn’t magic at all!" Old Yao held his pipe, shrugged his hands in helplessness with an innocent look, "Besides, because you ascended to a Grand Wizard allowed you to have the opportunity to lead such an advanced laboratory... so, what exactly happened in the laboratory?"

Su Shijun didn’t open her mouth immediately, but instead shot a wary glance at the two black-cloaked assistants beside Old Yao.

"They are both very trustworthy, don’t worry." The dean of Jiuyou guaranteed, patting his chest, "Besides, as members of the accident investigation team, they do need your cooperation in their work at present."

Hearing this, the two young assistants immediately shook their heads in unison, indicating that Su Daxu didn’t need to tell them those ’sensitive information’. This slightly comical gesture made the originally tense witch couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Even so." Su Shijun raised the corner of her mouth and looked back at Old Yao: "In fact, I don’t know what happened."

"You don’t know either?" Old Yao furrowed his eyebrows.

"I can only guess." Su Daxu hesitated then sighed, "Two possibilities: either someone within the shadows mastered a Forbidden Curse, triggering it in a two-dimensional world which affected this laboratory—this is also the reason I am still alive."

"Indeed, the impact of a Forbidden Curse originating from a two-dimensional world on a high-dimensional one is limited." The professor nodded.

"The other possibility is that someone ascended in the two-dimensional world, absorbing a massive amount of energy from low dimensions to high dimensions, causing a dimensional anomaly within a certain range, triggering some sort of ’Natural Forbidden Curse’... also known as ’Heavenly Punishment’ in the legend."

"In fact, I tend to lean towards the second guess."
