Chapter 1273 The Madman’s Plan
Chapter 1273 The Madman’s Plan
"madman."
After listening to Lin Yu's speech, this was Huo Le's new impression of John H. Arthur.
Moreover, Buyetian Huo Le directly stated this evaluation - as a royal noble, there was no need to worry too much about evaluating a B-1 level supervisor.
"It turns out I was wrong. You're not an ignorant fool, nor a sly liar, but a complete lunatic."
This sentence seems to be belittling Lin Yu, but in fact...
It can be seen from the fact that the senior executives of the Truth Company behind Huo Le in the Buyetian Sky did not respond and scolded Lin Yu, but directly told him to get out that this was actually a compliment.
In fact, it is a very standard compliment.
Although she defined Lin Yu as a lunatic, the first half of this sentence was "I was wrong about him."
As a royal noble, she admitted that she had "misjudged" and took the initiative to admit that she had made a mistake and did not scold Paris who was responsible for the introduction. Naturally, in a sense, this shows that...she has a good impression of the person in front of her for the time being.
However, Lin Yu showed appropriate surprise and panic, and then changed his expression as if he was forcing himself to calm down.
"Respected Lord Huo Le of the Nevernight Sky, I know this idea may sound a little crazy at first..."
But Buye Tianhuole interrupted him directly.
"I can tolerate some lunatics among my men. I'll give you five more minutes—convince me about the animating of fear."
Lin Yu listened to Buyetian Huo Le's words and a happy expression appeared on his face.
He pulled out the ancient notebook and said, "Respected Lord Huo Le of the Nevernight Sky, words are powerless. I will show you directly, so you can experience what I saw firsthand—this is also the source of my confidence."
"Firsthand information from the site of the old fear experiment!"
The moment Lin Yu took out the [Ancient Notes], someone behind Huo Le finally spoke.
"How dare you! The respected Lord Huo Le of the Nevernight Heaven is a precious lady, how dare you let her use uninspected multipurpose recording paper?"
An A-level supervisor scolded loudly.
Although multi-purpose recording paper is very useful in alchemical experiments and can provide many conveniences, this product, which is based on the [Ancient Notes], naturally has the same risks as the [Ancient Notes] - if you immerse yourself in it and experience the recorded content without precautions, you may be directly hurt by the hidden malice and suffer psychological trauma.
Paris also frowned: "You really went too far, Arthur..."
"It doesn't matter."
Huo Le raised his hand, and the noise behind him stopped abruptly.
"I'm willing to try."
She spoke softly, and several people looked at President Paris.
As the person with the highest status and the most trust from Buyetian Huo Le among this group of people, and also the person who introduced Arthur, President Paris naturally has to take the responsibility of persuading Buyetian Huo Le to take such a risky action.
"Respected Lord Huo Le of the Nightless City, the technology for multi-purpose recording paper is not yet mature. You are well aware of the dangers of the Fear Project. It is too risky to rashly access the on-site materials from that year... Even if you insist on viewing them, it is best to have a safety technician conduct a comprehensive assessment."
Huo Le looked at Paris and said, "I know you mean well, but there's no need to go to so much trouble. I trust my judgment—you brought him here, he won't harm me."
"As for the firsthand footage from the Fear Project... I've learned so much about alchemy since childhood that I wouldn't be afraid to see it in person, let alone see the reconstruction recorded on the multi-purpose recording paper!"
Buyetian Huo Le said this and waved towards Lin Yu.
"Come on, show me—let me see what was there at the old site that made you so confident."
Lin Yu walked quickly forward and came to a place closer to Buyetian Huo Le - the distance between them was only three meters.
Lin Yu heard a crisp "click" sound - that was the sound of the security personnel hidden in the dark unlocking the weapons and entering a state ready to be activated at any time.
He slowly opened the [Ancient Notes], and then... activated the pre-prepared contents.
The next moment, Lin Yu brought Buyetian Huo Le into the scene that was reproduced based on his memory.
However... this scene was not the one that Lin Yu had shown to President Paris before, when he saw "Chat" in the snowy mountains in winter.
Inside the studio hall, the screen was playing surveillance footage of an "abandoned cruise ship" drifting on the sea.
here it is……
The scene of the fake copy of the "Ghost Ship" that Lin Yu experienced when he was in the Gray Domain!
At that time, Lin Yu deduced from some details that this scene once belonged to the wasteland and the city that never sleeps - for some reason, the studio of this program inexplicably appeared in the gray area and became a small world in it.
Seeing this scene, Buyetian Huo Le was indeed a little confused.
"Where is this... This looks like the control room of a filming base where some kind of program is being filmed."
"Is that the footage on the surveillance camera showing the sea and the boat? What a realistic reproduction... Who created this program? And what does it have to do with fear?"
Huo Le looked at Lin Yu beside him and spoke in confusion.
Lin Yu explained in a low voice.
"Respected Lord Huo Le of the Nightless Sky, this is one of the most mature applications of the 'Fear' project back then... The development of the Fear project back then was even more complete than you can imagine."
"Truth Company even prepared a program called 'Ghost Ship' to collect 'fear'."
"Ghost ship? Fear?"
Buyetian Huo Le asked in confusion.
"Yes, I was also confused at first. What's there to be afraid of? But as I investigated more deeply, even researching many things about the Border Gate, I gradually understood..."
"The fears this program intends to capture aren't those of the local residents of the City That Never Sleeps... The fears it intends to capture are those from beyond this world, from beings in other worlds."
"And the person leading this project is most likely your mother, the respected and honorable head of the Buyetian family."
"Of course, she wasn't even the head of the Buyetian family at that time."
Lin Yu picked up the old newspaper on the table - the one with the old photo of Buye Tian Yonglian.
Huo Le looked at his mother's appearance when she was young and was completely shocked: "Is there such a thing? No... How could you know such a secret?"
"Why have I never heard of this? I've read the materials related to 'Fear' and even read them again before coming to see you today. There's no mention of this experiment at all."
"Because the existence of this experiment and the site has been almost completely erased by your mother," Lin Yu said softly, "Except for your mother and me, I'm afraid no one in the entire City That Never Sleeps knows about the existence of this fear research base. I only discovered it by accident - and it is the existence of this base that gives me the confidence to restart the 'Fear' project!"
