Chapter 1863: Chapter 582: The Desire for Eternal Life

"No, you guessed wrong. It wasn’t the two together; it was Fan Mao who single-handedly defeated me."

The Emperor was taken aback upon hearing this, his mouth half-open in surprise.

He had considered this possibility but hadn’t verified it, wanting to use this opportunity to test it out.

Now it seemed that the research institute’s hypothesis was becoming increasingly likely; Fan Mao’s superpower might be on the same level as his!

If that’s the case, it makes sense that the teacher would have that frustrated expression. Suddenly being surpassed by someone with such strength would upset anyone.

"Even the teacher can be defeated?"

"It’s about power restraint. Fan Mao’s ability perfectly restrains my ghost mechanism, and he seized the opportunity to take me down in one move."

The Quantum Ghost crossed her arms, her face puffed up with indignation, presenting the pre-prepared explanation.

This was also instructed by her new master, Bai Yi.

Compared to pure falsehoods, truths intertwined with lies are more trustworthy!

"I see. But knowing your character, when faced with difficulties, you would only strive to overcome them with mechanics, wouldn’t you?

If there’s a need, the Empire can also bear the subsequent research costs, so don’t get upset."

The Quantum Ghost glanced at the smiling Emperor, turned her head away, and let out a cold snort.

"Hmph, now I understand.

You’re deliberately putting me at a disadvantage, wanting me to find a way to defeat Fan Mao, right?"

The Emperor’s smile did not fade, nor did he directly admit it.

"Moreover, could you please submit a detailed report of the battle later?"

The Quantum Ghost waved her hand before leaving the office.

"Indeed, a teacher is always a teacher; even knowing it’s my guidance, she’d still seek out solutions to challenges worth facing.

I hope the teacher can find a way to counter Fan Mao..."

The Emperor sighed, thinking silently.

Fan Mao’s strength has been growing recently; although the probability of betrayal seems low, it is still necessary to prepare countermeasures.

As the Emperor, he needs foolproof plans.

Just like when facing the Insect Swarm, he needed a trump card to deal with them.

The same applies to facing Fan Mao.

After all, if he really can’t find one, he might have to use himself, who possesses a superpower of the same level, as the trump card.

Testing Fan Mao’s strength, seeking a trump card capable of countering Fan Mao, was the core reason for this deliberate concealment.

Otherwise, if it were a real emergency notification, even if the Quantum Ghost herself couldn’t be found, he could directly find the Ghost Avatar left on the Mother Star.

This part of the calculation was set aside for now, and the Emperor refocused on the document he had been working on.

The title of the document revealed that it pertained to the prophecy-related Divine Position he once ordered the researchers to study.

According to the document, the recent testing period for this Divine Position showed a significant increase in false alarm frequency, even frequently issuing warnings in seemingly harmless corners.

The researchers judged that the Divine Position had completely failed and considered it necessary to redesign it.

This document was the application submitted by those researchers.

The headache he had earlier was due to the issue with this Divine Position.

However, earlier he had already made a decision, understanding that redevelopment was necessary upon seeing the report information.

"We must acquire this Prophecy Divine Position, it’s just a suitable planet after all...

Approved!"

[Note: What? His Majesty the Emperor has been around for over five hundred years, right? If that’s the case, wouldn’t that make her at least ■■■ years old? Hmm? Why can’t I type it out?]

[Note to the note: Want to guess what her title is?]
