Dream Capture: I Can See Through All Secrets!

206: 206. Changes in Dream SpaceIn the conference room, the excitement over the “spirit core” architecture had not yet subsided, but Professor Qin Tian suddenly frowned, as if he had thought of something, and blurted out in an incredulous tone: “Wait! Andrew… this name, and the identity of a chip architect… This, isn’t this too much of a coincidence?!”

His voice trembled with excitement, “Not long ago, a top chip architect from Eagleland died of a heart attack in our Jiangcheng! The news even reported it! This… his name was also Andrew!!”

At these words, everyone was shocked!

The crowd, who had just been immersed in the grand vision of the “spirit core”, were like a basin of cold water had been poured over them, instantly calming down, their gazes, full of doubt and surprise, collectively refocused on the young Andrew.

Wang Yuxi covered her red lips, Xu Ting’s fingertips lightly tapped the table, and Lin Shaohui looked bewildered.

Top chip architects in the world were already as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. To have the same name and surname, and happen to be in the same field? Especially at the critical juncture when one of them had just died mysteriously?

This had already exceeded the scope of coincidence, hinting at an unspeakable strangeness.

Facing the scrutinizing and horrified gazes of everyone, Andrew’s body stiffened. He subconsciously looked at Lu Feng, who was at the head of the table, as if waiting for a divine command.

Lu Feng still wore that calm and composed smile on his face, as if he had long anticipated this question. He put down the teacup in his hand, his gaze falling on “Andrew”, and said with a hint of teasing: “It seems your name is a bit too ‘famous’, easily leading to unnecessary associations. You really need to change your name.”

The youth immediately bowed slightly, his attitude extremely respectful: “Please, Sir, bestow a name.”

For him, a name was merely a code, and it was only right that it be given by the master who had granted him new life.

Lu Feng, however, waved his hand and said with a smile: “I’m not interested in naming things, nor do I have that habit. Go find one you like yourself. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Just find a pleasant-sounding Chinese name.”

His indifferent attitude, and the youth’s almost devout respect, did not dispel the doubts in the minds of those present; instead, they grew even thicker.

But they were all intelligent people, well aware of the boundaries of certain matters.

If Lu Feng was unwilling to explain, they could not press further.

However, the look in their eyes towards the youth had changed from initial questioning to deep curiosity… This “Andrew” whom Lu Feng had found from who knows where, must be hiding a shocking secret.

This small commotion caused by the name quickly subsided under Lu Feng’s understated attitude.

The meeting then continued to discuss specific matters such as the establishment of the “spirit core” project and its confidentiality clauses.

Everyone opened a few bottles of good wine, celebrating the launch of the “spirit core” plan.

By the time the meeting ended, it was late at night. After seeing everyone off, Lu Feng returned to his bedroom alone.

He had no desire to sleep at all; instead, he felt an inexplicable excitement and desire for exploration.

He lay on the bed, closed his eyes, his consciousness rapidly sinking, skillfully entering that boundless space filled with countless dream bubbles.

However, this time, it was different from usual.

Lu Feng could clearly feel that the range his dream space could cover was expanding wildly at a visible speed!

Originally, it only enveloped Jiangcheng, but now, the edge of his perception had easily crossed the city boundaries, encompassing several surrounding cities!

Countless new, unfamiliar dream bubbles surged into his perceptual range like stars.

However, he ignored the floating dream bubbles and instead tried to sink further down.

This feeling was very strange, as if he had broken through some invisible boundary.

The next moment, he saw a shocking sight.

The bottom of the dream space, which was originally a pitch-black void, had, at some point, split open with a subtle yet pure darkcrack!

The crack twisted and turned like a scar, faintly emitting an unsettling aura.

What startled him even more was that from that subtle crack, something was continuously seeping out.

These were strange symbols that defied understanding by real-world geometry, constantly changing their form. They flickered with a dim light, drifted out, and existed only for a fleeting moment before gradually dissipating as if erased by an eraser, leaving no trace.

And once he approached the crack slightly, some fragmented, chaotic, and illogical images would forcefully flood his perception.

Burning stars, collapsing spaces, silent roars, and the outlines of certain enormous, indescribable shadows… these images flashed by, each time causing him a splitting headache.

It seemed that behind this crack, some unknown, immeasurable terrifying realm was connected.

Lu Feng frowned, staring at the eerie crack and symbols, and murmured, “This ability really… isn’t that simple… What exactly are these?”

Resurrecting Andrew seemed to have consumed some essential power, or triggered a switch, leading to an unexpected evolution of his ability, or rather… revealed a deeper hidden truth?

What was this crack? What did those symbols and broken images mean? Was the rapid expansion of his abilities a blessing or a curse?

A series of changes made Lu Feng realize that his understanding of his abilities was probably still on a very superficial level.

He silently memorized these symbols, preparing to consult some experts after he came out… In the next few days, led by Yu Tianxiong, Tingfeng Semiconductor was registered and established. Andrew also officially changed his name to An Rui, serving as Tingfeng Semiconductor’s chief scientist and technical director.

The news spread, immediately catching the attention of Lü Chenxing, who had been closely following the matter. He truly hadn’t expected Lu Feng to act so quickly.

So he personally called, his tone filled with congratulations and encouragement: “Young Friend Lu, I heard your Tingfeng Semiconductor has been established? You’re really fast! Good, young people should have this kind of drive! The country is watching and hoping for progress in the challenging field of chips! If you have any difficulties, you can always bring them up…”

He originally wanted to say a few more words of encouragement, expressing the nation’s support, but on the other end of the phone, Lu Feng interrupted him with a smile: “Minister Lü, thank you. Coincidentally, regarding chips, we have some preliminary, theoretical ideas here and have compiled a document. I’ve had someone send it to your confidential email. You can take a look and offer your opinions.”

Lü Chenxing held the phone, stunned.

The company was just established yesterday, and today they already have “preliminary ideas”? And a theoretical outline? This speed… even a rocket wouldn’t be this fast, would it?

He had originally thought it would take at least a year or two to see anything directional.

“Ah? Oh… Good, good! I’ll look at it right away!” Lü Chenxing suppressed the shock in his heart and quickly responded.

After hanging up the phone, he almost impatiently opened his confidential computer and logged into his email.

When the document titled “Theoretical Feasibility Study of ‘spirit core’ Heterogeneous Chip Architecture (Preliminary Draft)” appeared before him, his hands trembled slightly…
