Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2646: Chapter 2647: Disappeared Without a Trace

Mars.

The large screen flickered with a pale white light, casting a dim and uncertain expression on Zhang Tianyou’s face.

The vast research lab was dimly lit, all equipment was shut down except for the illuminated screen, and even the air processors were halted.

The air was foul-smelling and unpleasant.

Yet Zhang Tianyou sat in this environment for three whole days.

He didn’t move an inch throughout, as if trying to decipher something from the blank screen.

Buzz.

A light sound was heard as the door slid open, and the shapely secretary stepped inside.

”President, have something to eat!”

The secretary softly said as she placed the tray of food on the table.

”No need, I’m not hungry!”

Even as he spoke, Zhang Tianyou kept his eyes glued to the screen, afraid of missing any critical information.

The secretary sighed and moved behind Zhang Tianyou, gently massaging his shoulders.

”President, what exactly are you looking at?”

”Nothing much, just some concerns.” Zhang Tianyou replied in a deep voice.

”Mr. Xue has already eliminated the Star Ring, what else do you have to worry about?”

”Eliminate?” Zhang Tianyou shook his head with a bitter smile, ”I created it with my own hands, no one understands its capabilities better than me, so no matter how powerful Xue An is, he couldn’t have completely destroyed it.”

”Then why hasn’t there been a trace of it until now?”

”That’s precisely what worries me!” Zhang Tianyou sighed.

As soon as he finished speaking, the air in the research lab stirred, and Xue An’s figure materialized.

Seeing his sudden appearance, the secretary trembled and was about to speak, but Zhang Tianyou spoke with a light laugh, without turning his head.

”You’ve finally arrived!”

Xue An remained silent and walked to Zhang Tianyou’s side.

The secretary looked at Xue An with some nervousness.

Zhang Tianyou patted her hand, ”Please leave us for now!”

”Yes!”

The secretary, although worried, dared not defy Zhang Tianyou’s orders and turned to leave.

Xue An looked at the large screen and said blandly, ”You knew I would come?”

Zhang Tianyou smiled, ”It wasn’t hard to predict, after all, it hasn’t appeared yet, so you must be curious as well.”

”True!” Xue An turned slightly, his gaze icy cold as he looked at Zhang Tianyou.

”Didn’t you say it was extremely difficult to destroy? Why, after I eliminated all its fragments on Earth with one move, does it seem to have disappeared, never to appear again?”

Zhang Tianyou smiled faintly, then looked at the screen before him, ”Indeed, not only you, even I am perplexed.”

”This screen is actually my means of observing the Sol System; once it appears, the screen will immediately display relevant location information. But I’ve sat here for three days without finding a trace.”

Saying this, Zhang Tianyou’s expression became serious, ”This is precisely what fills me with concern.”

Seeing the look on Zhang Tianyou’s face, Xue An’s gaze softened.

To be honest, before arriving here, Xue An had indeed suspected Zhang Tianyou.

After all, the Star Ring was his creation, and the most important aspect of artificial intelligence is absolute loyalty to its creator.

Yet such an AI suddenly rebelled, betraying its creator to join the Federal Credential Bureau.

No matter how you think about it, it seems puzzling.

Especially when Xue An went out to eliminate all the Star Ring’s fragments within the Earth-Moon range, expecting to flush out hidden forces lurking beneath the waters.

Unexpectedly, instead of facing a counterattack from the Star Ring, there was a peculiar silence.

This only heightened Xue An’s suspicions.

But at this moment, Xue An dispelled his doubts.

Because Zhang Tianyou’s gaze was sincere, and he directly opened his heart to Xue An, allowing him to probe his thoughts,

These actions proved that Zhang Tianyou was indeed unaware of these matters.

With this realization, Xue An temporarily set aside the issue of the Star Ring and took out the spacetime stone he obtained from the Carter Family.

”Have you seen this before?”

Zhang Tianyou looked at it in confusion, then shook his head, ”No, I haven’t.”

”Are you sure?”

Zhang Tianyou smiled, tapping his head with a finger, ”Ever since childhood, every object I’ve seen has been categorized and stored in my mind, there won’t be any omissions. So if I had seen this thing, I would certainly recognize it.”

Saying this, Zhang Tianyou looked at the stone in Xue An’s hand with curiosity.

”What is this?”

Xue An didn’t hold back and recounted the situation briefly.

Upon learning the stone was related to the chaotic timeline, Zhang Tianyou was surprised, and his eyes burned with intense curiosity.

That was the flame of scientific discovery.

”May I take a closer look?”

Xue An casually tossed it over.

Zhang Tianyou immediately controlled a mechanical arm to catch it, then pressed the switches on the wheelchair beneath him.

Instantly, the entire research lab seemed to come alive, sequentially lighting up lamps and equipment.

Then Zhang Tianyou eagerly moved to the console, carefully examining the spacetime stone.

Xue An watched silently from the side.

Moments later, excitement appeared on Zhang Tianyou’s face, ”Interesting, truly interesting, this item can alter the time flow rate on the surface of objects.”

”What do you mean?”

”It means the stone’s time flow rate differs from the outside world, though theoretically, such phenomena typically occur on the surface of massive celestial bodies! How peculiar!”

Zhang Tianyou murmured to himself, then said to Xue An, ”May I collect a small sample from it?”

Saying this, Zhang Tianyou rushed to explain, ”Rest assured, I’ll be very careful, only taking a piece the size of a soybean!”

Xue An smiled slightly, ”Of course, go ahead!”

Zhang Tianyou’s joy was uncontained, and after operating some controls, the entire research lab began to transform.

In the blink of an eye, a well-equipped operation platform with complete isolation measures appeared.

Zhang Tianyou carefully placed the stone at the center of the platform, immediately shielding it under three layers of glass covers.

”Each piece of these glasses has been specially crafted, capable of withstanding the impact of tens of thousands of metric tons, ensuring its absolute safety.”

Zhang Tianyou explained, then enthusiastically operated the robotic arms within.

He appeared just like a child with a new toy, filled with eagerness for learning.

Xue An remained silent.

Buzz!

Accompanied by the ultra-high-speed motor’s hum, a precision-engineered drill cautiously approached the spacetime stone.
