Chapter 227 Dream Year Heart
Chapter 227 Dream Year Heart
Meng Ning's guess was correct, Shu Hai was indeed jealous.
He turned to look at Chen Shijian and Meng Qiannian, his eyes revealing complex emotions that were difficult to conceal.
On what basis can those who seek the Dharma shine so freely in this era?
They just have the innate advantage of magic power, which makes them highly respected and able to call the wind and rain.
Although I have a smart mind and have devoted countless efforts to the Heavenly Court, I can never be as brilliant as them.
Why can Chen Shijian, that guy, gain Meng Ning's trust?
Why did his adoptive father pass on to him the position of Lord of Heaven?
Why can I only watch helplessly from the sidelines, feeling overwhelmed by the tedious scientific research experiments?
There is also Meng Qiannian, and Meng Ning always dotes on her.
They can get Meng Ning's care and preference, but what about himself?
There is always just one mission after another, one technological plan after another.
Although he is also an adopted son, he seems to be just a tool to complete the task, an employee who is not valued and cared for.
Why can't I get sincere treatment from my adoptive father like Chen Shijian and Meng Qiannian?
Am I destined to be marginalized just because I have no magical powers?
Seeing through his thoughts, Meng Ning spoke.
“Shuhai, I know that as an ordinary person and not a seeker of the law, you have some bad views on the power of mana.
But as my adopted son, you should understand that since the union of the Dharma Realm and the Divine Power Realm, the world's science and technology has developed rapidly."
Meng Ning paused, then continued, "I have never neglected the development of science and technology. Even in today's era, I often use my magic power to promote science and technology.
Today is the era of law, and in the future, with the joint efforts of you and me, it will definitely be the era of technology.
There are still many opportunities for you to show your talents.
I have never paid less attention to you than others, and the reason why I am strict with you is because my expectations of you are always higher than others. "
After listening to Meng Ning's words, the waves in Shu Hai's heart calmed down a little, but he still looked at Meng Ning with a hint of doubt and expectation.
Meng Ning continued, “In my eyes, the Digital Ocean Project has never been a backup or alternative plan to suppress the will of the people of the world.
In my eyes, this is a process and stage that humans must go through.
By replacing weak flesh and blood with powerful machinery, one day ordinary people will be able to gain terrifying strength that is not inferior to those who seek the law."
“As for the exploration of the endless universe, the mind transmission and uploading function can help our galactic explorers survive the long and boring time on the spacecraft.
They only need to bring their consciousness into the mechanical carrier to work and explore when necessary, and they can spend wonderful time with their families at other times.
Not to mention, the Phoenix Project will allow every ordinary person without magical powers to have the opportunity to have eternal life, while also reducing the casualties of the people of Heaven."
"If you think machines are cold and heartless, we can also combine machines and biotechnology to construct human-like tissue carriers."
"The Digital Ocean Project will bring a better future to every citizen of Heaven, and the power of the law will accelerate the arrival of this future."
Having said that, Meng Ning used his magic power to lift up the sea of trees and float them in front of him.
Meng Ning then gently stroked Shu Hai's face and spoke firmly.
"Most importantly, the future of Heaven will never leave any of its citizens behind.
I will also not forget everyone who contributed to the future of Heaven.
I assure you of this.
Now, are you still going to stop me from advancing the Digital Ocean Project and preventing humanity from moving towards a better future?"
Shu Hai's expression was finally moved, his lips trembled, and his eyes were filled with shock.
Such majesty, such love, such wisdom.
There is no reason, no reason anymore to stop the Holy King from doing anything he wants to do.
And he, Shuhai, has the great honor and happiness to be the adopted son of his adoptive father and to be the right-hand man of the Holy Lord.
Then Shu Hai knelt down in front of Meng Ning and yelled:
"Shuhai, I am willing to serve you wholeheartedly and die for you, father!"
Meng Ning waved his hand, and the sea of trees quickly floated up from the ground and sat down beside him.
Then Meng Ning looked at the two people who were still trapped in time and space in front of the door below him, and thought to himself, I've dealt with one, and now Xiao Meng is left.
Meng Ning raised his hand gently, and fluctuations of magic power surged out from his palm.
The pink flowers wrapped around Meng Qiannian's body began to tremble slightly, as if they had received some invisible call.
Those delicate and gorgeous petals, originally tightly intertwined, now slowly loosened. The pink light gradually dimmed, and the small flowers gradually receded like the tide.
They began to withdraw from Meng Qiannian's limbs and retreated upwards along her body, as if they were reluctantly saying goodbye.
The constraints of time and space were lifted, and the time and space around Meng Qiannian gradually became diluted from thick and heavy.
Her body seemed to be pushed by an invisible force, and her movements gradually changed from slow dragging to smooth and natural.
Meng Qiannian had just recovered and focused his eyes when he instantly keenly captured the scene in front of him.
Her eyes first fell on Shuhai who was sitting next to Meng Ning, and then moved to Chen Shijian who was still imprisoned beside him.
In just this brief moment, Meng Qiannian, a top-notch master with great supernatural powers, understood everything.
A hint of anger and confusion flashed across her lively eyes, and then understanding came into focus.
She clearly realized that the strange pause she had just experienced was caused by the Penglai secret technique performed by Meng Ning.
Meng Qiannian gritted her teeth, her body trembling slightly, and then she roared angrily at Meng Ning on the throne.
"Lao Deng, you actually dared to use the Penglai secret method to imprison me!
Have you forgotten who helps you maintain your mental state every day? Who brings you tea and water and serves you attentively? "
Her voice echoed in the huge room, filled with anger and grievance.
Meng Ning's expression changed slightly. He had expected Meng Qiannian's reaction to be so intense, but every father would feel uncomfortable when being blamed by his daughter. Even he, the Lord of Heaven, was not immune to this truth.
Just as Meng Qiannian was about to have another attack, Meng Ning gently interrupted her:
"Xiao Meng, don't get excited yet. Let me ask you, are you here to stop me from implementing the Sea of Trees Project?"
Although Meng Ning's voice was gentle, it still carried a hint of unwillingness.
Meng Qiannian put his hands on his hips and said firmly, "Of course! Lao Deng, I will not only stop you from launching the Sea of Trees Project, but also let you know clearly the harm of the law.
Mana seems powerful and can bring many conveniences, but it is like a chronic poison that erodes our foundation unknowingly.
It makes people overly dependent and lose the spirit of exploration and struggle. In the long run, human beings will lose the ability to make independent progress and become slaves of the law!
Lao Deng, you can't be blinded by the immediate benefits!"
Facing the same rhetoric used by Meng Qiannian and Shu Hai, Meng Ning did not directly blame or refute her. Instead, he smiled and said gently, "Child, I understand what you are thinking."
This sentence made Shu Hai beside him and Meng Qiannian in the audience stunned at the same time.
When did the Saint King become so easy to talk to?
Unexpectedly, Meng Ning changed the subject and suddenly asked Meng Qiannian an irrelevant question.
Meng Ning asked with great interest, "Girl, let me ask you, do you like the little pillar next to you?"
