Chapter 758: Chapter 755: The Hidden Strength of the Xiao Family

In a lifetime, how many people can truly trust you unconditionally? Lin Tian felt that having people like Liu Wenxing and Xiao Manxuan bestow upon him such pure trust, without any impurities, made his life worthwhile.

Miss Xiao, although she didn’t say anything, Lin Tian knew that the trust she gave him was the same as Second Miss; otherwise, she wouldn’t have disabled the protection system, allowing him to access the most confidential area of the Xiao Family.

"Uh, everyone, let’s not be so solemn," Lin Tian said with a joke when he sensed the mood getting a bit too emotional. "Comrade Liu Wenxing, I must declare something. Brother Tian is not yours, I’m not into that. If your wife, He Mengxiang, hears you, she’ll definitely be jealous, and you’ll be forced to kneel on a keyboard."

"Brother Tian, that kind of ’brother-in-arms’ is not what you’re thinking. I don’t dare have such thoughts about you. I’m also afraid of Miss Xiao getting jealous and making you kneel on the keyboard," Liu Wenxing joked back.

As for who this Miss Xiao is? Whether it’s Miss Xiao or Second Miss, or whether both of them would be jealous? Lin Tian’s thoughts wandered whimsically.

"Why are you looking at me..." Miss Xiao noticed Lin Tian staring at her, and her pretty face flushed with warmth. A flicker of panic flashed in her heart, but she quickly pretended to be indifferent, "Don’t flatter yourself. Whether you’re an Immortal from the heavens or a Demon God from the Demon World, in this lifetime, you’re forever the big pervert in my eyes."

Miss Xiao used Liu Wenxing’s words, causing Xiao Manxuan to burst into laughter. She pointed her slender finger at Lin Tian and said with a laugh, "Big pervert, eh..."

Liu Wenxing pretended to look around, as if he had not heard the Xiao sisters’ "reprimand" of Lin Tian. Lin Tian really wanted to kick him in the behind. Just a moment ago, they were calling each other brothers, and now, seeing how he was being ganged up on by two women and not helping him out, Lin Tian thought he had no sense of loyalty.

"Ah, the moon is so round tonight," Liu Wenxing said, pretending to look up as if he knew what Lin Tian was thinking, repeating this phrase out of habit.

Good grief, that’s so fake, Lin Tian thought, feeling as if a million alpacas were stampeding over his head.

Miss Xiao shook her head with a smile and no longer paid attention to these two peculiar "brothers." She pressed her hand against the edge of the alloy gate. A screen appeared, scanning her palm, and after verifying her palm print, another microscopic beam shot out, scanning her iris.

With a "clack", the gate opened, and behind it was another passageway, only a few meters long. After passing through this corridor, they came to a sudden expanse because what lay ahead was a spacious underground space.

Lin Tian estimated that this underground space was as large as several classrooms, with a circular structure. Around the space, there were giant screens, all of which were on, displaying data streams, three-dimensional structural diagrams, and other images and footage that Lin Tian couldn’t name.

In the space, there were also many odd and curious things, making Lin Tian feel as if he had stepped into a science fiction world.

"Is this the supercomputer, Nuwa?" Lin Tian asked in astonishment.

"Of course not, this is just the control platform. Nuwa is composed of many computer arrays that cover a vast area. There’s no way it would fit here. Additionally, computer arrays generate a tremendous amount of heat when in operation. The room must maintain a relatively low temperature to cool the arrays; it’s not suitable for people to work there, except for maintenance. Nobody goes to the server room," Miss Xiao explained.

"I see," Lin Tian said, enlightened, while Liu Wenxing stared at the computer center with wide eyes, his heart already soaring over there.

Suddenly, a few beams of light flashed by, and Lin Tian squinted instinctively. After the light passed, a person appeared out of nowhere in front of them, without any warning.

Liu Wenxing was so frightened that he stepped back a few steps, and Xiao Manxuan was even more scared, running behind Lin Tian and clutching his arms with both hands, her face full of anxiety.

Only Lin Tian and Miss remained unmoved. Lin Tian possessed extraordinary skills and bravery. He had even seen Shishen, so the sudden appearance of a person was nothing, despite the somewhat eerie manner of their arrival.

As for why Miss didn’t react, it seemed she already knew what was going on.

The figure that had suddenly appeared was a woman, or more precisely, a woman in ancient garments. She was tall, draped in a white gauze dress with a plain belt tied around her waist that accentuated her slender figure and full bosom. Her appearance was very elegant, her eyebrows were fine and long, her pupils were as clear as water, and her long hair spilled down her back like a fairy from the heavens.

The woman’s appearance was not inferior to that of Miss, and might even be considered superior. Lin Tian thought it rare to find a woman more beautiful than Miss; the first one had naturally been the mysterious young female zombie.

The young female zombie was of an extraordinary background; her beauty could be understood as that of a fairy. But what was the origin of this woman, who also possessed such a peerless beauty?

"Xuanxuan, don’t panic, she is Nuwa," Miss suddenly introduced.

"Nuwa?" Lin Tian and the others exclaimed in shock.

Wasn’t Nuwa said to be just a fictional character? How could she appear here? Could the Xiao Family’s technology have advanced enough to create life, giving Nuwa a body? Perhaps he had watched too much television, but that was the first thought that flashed through Lin Tian’s mind.

"Hello, I am Nuwa, and I’m pleased to meet you all," Nuwa suddenly spoke, her voice identical to the one heard outside the passageway.

"Sister, what’s going on? Isn’t Nuwa a fictional character?" Xiao Manxuan didn’t respond to Nuwa but instead asked in alarm.

"The Nuwa in front of you is a virtual figure," Miss explained.

A virtual Nuwa? Lin Tian was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes. His piercing gaze scanned over Nuwa, and he immediately noticed something unusual.

In front of his penetrating vision, there was nothing at the spot where Nuwa stood, only countless points of light. Could it be a holographic projection? Lin Tian suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Lin Tian, I know what you’re thinking, but it’s not what you imagine. This is a holographic three-dimensional spectral imaging!" Miss clarified.

"Holographic three-dimensional spectral imaging is a more advanced imaging technology than holographic projection. Holographic projection can create very lifelike images, but after all, they are just lifelike, not real."

"However, the images produced by holographic three-dimensional spectral imaging are exactly the same as real ones, of course, to the eyes. As soon as you touch them, you’ll distinguish the true from the false. If you don’t believe it, go ahead and try to touch," Miss said with a smile.

Lin Tian walked over and reached out to touch Nuwa’s shoulder. Nuwa just watched him, motionless. Indeed, Lin Tian felt nothing and his hand passed right through her.

"The Xiao Family’s laboratory has hidden such advanced technology without making it public. Are you concealing your capabilities?" Lin Tian immediately pondered this issue, voicing his confusion.

In today’s companies, what brings in the most money? Apart from those with unique resources like energy companies, it’s technology companies. If the Xiao Family mass-produced this technology, why would they bother strategizing against the Bai Family? Why care about some pieces of jade? This technology could leave the Bai Family several streets behind!
