Be mentally prepared.
These simple words are mentioned repeatedly throughout the trip.
First from Jarvis’s mouth and now from Long Jiu’s mouth. Remember, these two are no ordinary folks so it must mean the things behind this door are that unusual.
And sure enough, everyone’s heart fell into a state of flux.
They wanted to see, urgently wanted to see even, but at the same time, nervous and fearful of the unknown.
“What the hell is it? What the hell could it be?!”
“It’s pretty obvious; the things behind the door are beyond that of the super life element.
“No kidding. It must be extraordinary if Chu Yun is willing to go through so much effort.”
……
Moments later.
“Squeak!” Long Jiu directly pushed open the door for all to see.
At that moment, eyes were popping out, some horrified, some astonished, and a few giddy with excitement.
“Hiss—”
“This, this, how is this possible?!”
“How in the world did Chu Yun achieve this?!”
Li Tianlong and Fang Guofeng found their head’s trying to explode from the overload. They’ve lost their composure, completely gone bat shit crazy. Nothing in their training could ever prepare them for such a thing, such magnificence!
As for Song and her three lady friends, they only had their mouths cusped in giddiness.
Meanwhile, the fans and viewers watching this from the livestream were in the horrified and astonished camp mainly because their brains were fried and couldn’t quite process the image.
Until three minutes later, the world itself finally returned to its senses.
“Dinosaurs, there are actually a bunch of dinosaurs behind the door, complete dinosaurs, flesh and all?!!!”
“I remember Long Jiu asking Jarvis the question, now it all made sense….”
“Oh momma, are these dinosaurs seriously real?!”
“I get it now. The door must be a gate into another world. We’ve crossed over to a parallel universe where the Jurassic era still lives!”
“Outrageous, absolutely outrageous! Iron Man can still be built by human hands, but where did these dinosaurs come from?!”
“I originally thought I knew Chu Yun well enough already through his things, but now I realized how foolish I’ve been. This is superior to anything Chu Yun has shown us thus far!”
“The food ranking list message is no joke, he really meant it!”
……
In the face of this world’s subverting picture, no one could remain calm and not explode.
The world is crazy, is there a bug?!
In the conference room of the National Security Bureau.
All five elders were collectively shocked. They’re sharing looks among themselves, asking with those eyes alone if this was some dream and not real.
“Is Chu Yun really a citizen of our country? Can Dahan even handle such a great being?” The Third Elder began to doubt his own existence in life.
The Fourth Elder pursed his lips and spoke in a horrified voice, “I’m starting to worry that Chu Yun is as they say out there – he’s not human, but some underground demi-human.”
“Calm down all of you!” The Grand Elder punches the table to get them to settle down.
Groaning for a moment before continuing, “Second Elder, what’s your take on this?”
What do I think?
I’m going to kneel and continue watching is what!
The Second Elder really didn’t know how to analyze this kind of thing.
It’s unbelievable.
Still, he made his guess.
“First of all, it is possible to rule out that these dinosaurs have been preserved from prehistoric times. Humanity didn’t even exist back then, and even if it our kind were, it’s impossible to preserve something so intact that long.” Making a gulping sound, he glances around the table to ensure they’re all listening: “So, there’s only one possibility in my head. Chu Yun, he must’ve used a time machine to do this!”
The Fifth Elder nodded profusely, “I believe this is the case. If Chu Yun can create an Iron Man shows he controls technology superior to our own. I do not doubt if he got his hands on a time machine through his own doing.”
Reasonable my ass!
I wouldn’t even consider something so farfetched if I didn’t have a better theory!
“The possibility of the time machine theory is indeed the greatest. Don’t forget, he also had that special wine and legendary art pieces in storage. If he went back in time and personally secured those items then it fits perfectly.”
The Grand Elder made another rational analysis using that theory as a base: “If that’s the case, wouldn’t that mean we can’t find Chu Yun because the guy went off to another time era using the machine?”
The conference room suddenly got all quiet and eerie.
No one could give an accurate answer, but one thing’s sure, their backs are going numb from the wild speculations.
……
Inside the dinosaur wing of the National Museum.
“WTF!!!”
Guo Mingda and the others jerked in unison and bolted up from their chairs.
Their shock was no lesser than those over at the scene. Unlike the everyday folks, they’re the group in society with the most significant exposure to dinosaur fossils so imagine getting this chance to see the real thing for once. It’s like dangling candy in front of a baby’s face.
They turned to face the fossils displayed around them and found the exhibit cheap and shoddy. Then focusing on Professor Gen, who remains immersed in studying these old rocks, the group just couldn’t help but feel sympathetic towards the man.
“Beautiful, so beautiful, I can feel the strength of this T-rex just by looking at these fossils. The era back then must’ve been glorious, truly amazing.” Professor Gen continues to murmur his findings, oblivious to the looks coming his way.
The crowd: “…”
Guo Mingda couldn’t hold back anymore: “Professor Gen, there is nothing beautiful about those fossils. Come and watch the live broadcast with us.”
Gen jumped right away like someone had trampled his tail. Pointing at the good friend in an angry manner, “Bullshit! If you continue to insult these fossils, then I will break off our friendship!”
Guo Mingda didn’t know whether to laugh or cry right now: “Real dinosaurs are airing on the TV right now, why would you not watch those?”
Gen got even huffier and irate as he slowly got up to his friend’s personal space. Then, with a contemptuous grin, “Guo Mingda, do you know that you are expending my trust in you by saying such a thing? Such shoddy lies will only force me to despise you…”
As he spoke, he naturally took a glance at the big TV screen to the other side. Only then does his rant stop like someone stuffed a rock down his throat and turned his words into a splutter.
“Di-Dinosaur? What is a dinosaur doing here?!” Professor Gen nearly popped his eyeballs out, the same manner you find in those old 90’s cartoons.
After a brief shriek, he quickly calms himself and gets all rational in his head, “Special effects, this must be special effects!”
Guo Mingda coughed lightly to get his attention, “Professor Gen, this is a live broadcast, there is no animations involved because it’s related to Chu Yun. It’s stated before that this is a food ranking list so those dinosaurs are likely meat he stored for consumption.”
Is it all true?
Chu Yun ate dinosaur meat?
Guo Mingda’s words were undoubtedly a bombshell, blowing up Professor Gen inside out.
“Bump.” He knelt before the screen and made a worshipping posture. “There are still complete dinosaurs in this world! I must see it for myself… I’m going to apply to head over there right now, I must get this opportunity!”
……
The three great house’s meeting hall.
The faces they made were that of confusion and shock.
“How are we supposed to compete with that? Chu Yun is blatantly cheating!”
“Even dinosaurs are his collection, is there any reason for this? Does he have any humanity left in him?!”
“In the face of such a cruel person, how can we take revenge! This is something that ordinary people can deal with?”
“I can’t even say it’s unjust for us to lose to this guy. The way he deals with common sense is ridiculous! There’s no such thing as normal for him anymore!”
The scene completely left them terrified inside. They could still leave it to science with the Iron Man suit before, but this was already at the fictional supernatural level. It’s insane!
Buju couldn’t help but murmur his remark, “I think it’s okay not to avenge my son anymore…”
“All quiet!” Meinek coldly roared to suppress the differing voices. “Look at what you’ve all become! It’s just some dinosaurs. Even if Chu Yun became an alien, what is there to be afraid of?! Remember, panicking cannot solve anything!”
Patch nodded, “Meinek is right, you think Chu Yun will let us go once he returns? Our only choice is to retaliate, otherwise there will be no good ending for any of us!”
“Right! Did you all forget Chu Yun ran off to complete some dangerous task? The fact that he didn’t return and broke off contact with his wife shows he’s unable to resolve the issue. The guy’s likely dead by now so what is there to be afraid of?!”
As expected of the current generation. While the rest of the clans people here fell into disarray, these three housemasters always held themselves well during momements of crisis.
Buju then turns to his old man who had barely spoken thus far, “Dad, what should we do?”
Tambo Wittstein waited a moment as he scanned the hall to get everyone’s attention: “We all know there is a big secret hidden behind Chu Yun, that needs no clarification at this point. However, that doesn’t mean we couldn’t rip it off his hands. The person is not around so this is the perfect opportunity for that. This crisis may be dangerous for our three clans, but it’s also a great opportunity to rise to new heights!” After announcing his findings, the old grandfather licked his lips in the most filthy and greedy manner.
Meinek: “Do not forget everyone, Chu Yun’s biggest weakness is now exposed to us, and that is his wife Song! The guy can do nothing if we have her in our hands.”
Afterward, the gathering hall was filled with laughter as they continued to refine their filthy schemes.
