saw Alia clad in white robes.
Looking at her perfect figure and long legs that many girls dreamed of, he couldn’t help but compare her appearance to how she had looked when they first met.
He could guess how she ended up here.
As a refugee, Alia had very progressive values and out-of-the-box thinking; therefore, it was normal that Dong Qianyi would recruit her. 

“Call me Alia, I’m only twenty.” She reached out and shook Xiang Ning’s hand. 

“Alright, Alia, I’ll pass Xiang Ning to you.
I’ll call everyone for a meeting.” Dong Qianyi turned to leave. 

Xiang Ning followed Alia for two minutes when she stopped in her tracks. 

“Why’re there so many beasts here? And humans?” Xiang Ning started surveying his surroundings. 

“Take a closer look.” Alia’s cheery smile had turned grim. 

Confused, he started observing them and realized all their eyes were red and bloodshot.
The moment he approached, the beasts rammed into the walls in a manic rage.
His brows furrowed.
He had experienced the beasts in the wilderness, and although it was only natural that beasts attacked humans, they were different from the beasts in this room.
This was a complete dysfunctional state, and they radiated a very different aura that made him uncomfortable. 

“You noticed something?” 

“I can sense something that doesn’t belong to them on their bodies,” said Xiang Ning in a low voice. 

Alia smirked.
“Can’t believe you sensed that.
You’re right—it’s the faint black substance you see on them.
This substance not only makes beasts violent, it can also make humans lose their minds.
It’s the main cause of Tranquil City’s attack, which stemmed from one beast.
If this spreads any further, it could form a horde on a massive scale.” 

Alia sighed, then continued, “Alright, let’s check out the other project.
You’ll be interested in that.” 

They passed through at least ten security checks, which made Xiang Ning wonder how secretive it was.
Perhaps it was better if he didn’t go; what if he accidentally leaked the secret? Would they kill him? Very soon, after they passed the last safety check, they arrived in a bright room with white metal walls.
In front of them was a giant screen displaying huge amounts of continuously changing data.
Below the screen was a circular container with a piece of metal the size of a fist that more than ten white-robed researchers hovered around. 

“Do you see the metal in the container? That’s our research on space compression, though it needs at least ten more years of research,” explained Alia, beaming with pride.
Although they needed ten more years, it was still something of a new era! When she saw Xiang Ning’s dazed expression, she grew puzzled.
 What was the matter? 

What she didn’t know was that the moment Xiang Ning saw the data on the screen and metal in the container, information about space poured into his mind.
He suddenly realized that he had also calculated accurate solutions to the numbers on the screen… which meant he could instantly complete the project.
