Chapter 594: Chapter 594

"I understand, isn’t it simple? It means these alien entities have a different ’operating system’ from us humans." KIKI quickly grasped the point.

"Exactly, but this is my logic. My thinking is limited by my human identity and education. Superpower might encompass domains of higher life forms, so my logic may not necessarily be correct. However, from a practical perspective, there’s another hypothesis: the son she sees is actually an illusion ’simulated’ by her brain. We’ve experienced this before, so we should understand."

Hearing this, Lin Xian furrowed his brows slightly: "I think I understand."

At this time, Luo Yang, who was using his mobile terminal to search, spoke again: "That’s not right. I’ve searched several times, and except for someone named Wen Jiacheng, there are no others with the surname Wen. The name Wen Dong doesn’t appear at all."

A frantic Tang Yun, upon hearing this, somehow found the courage to crawl up from the ground and rushed over to snatch the mobile terminal from Luo Yang’s hands. She frantically searched, reviewing all the information of everyone, but couldn’t find her husband’s information at all.

In an instant, her face turned increasingly pale. Her hands gradually stopped moving, and she sat powerlessly on the ground, mind blank, muttering continuously: "Impossible..."

KIKI used her telekinesis to take the mobile terminal back from her hand. Lin Xian took a look at it and seemed to understand something.

"It seems your husband didn’t entirely believe in such a perfect plan for eternal life."

Tang Yun turned around, trembling all over, and looked at Lin Xian: "What... what do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, the others immediately understood what Lin Xian meant.

One theory is that Wen Dong got scared and retreated at the last moment, not daring to enter.

The second is that Wen Dong planned this, intentionally sending his wife and children here, but the reason is intriguing.

Tang Yun wasn’t a fool. Although her head was spinning at the moment, she clearly remembered everything that happened after arriving here. She recalled her husband’s lukewarm attitude, completely different from her and the others’ excitement, doubt, and aspirations upon learning about this eternal consciousness plan. Now, with no sign of Wen Dong’s name in the survival pod list, she finally realized the truth.

In an instant, all her previous chaos and tension vanished, and she collapsed limply on the ground, her face ashen, completely neglecting her exposed body in front of everyone, filled with disbelief and despair.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xian sighed inwardly, turned to look at KIKI, and whispered,

"This is someone you know. What should we do? I’ll follow your lead."

Based on what KIKI said earlier, this woman shouldn’t be bad. Now she’s fallen to a tragic fate, lying in a coffin nourishing fungi, miraculously surviving but still dreaming of eternal life. She’s rather pitiable. If it were just a stranger, Lin Xian might have planned to let other teams traveling north to the Dawn Center pick her up, leaving her fate to destiny. But since she’s a relative of KIKI’s family, Lin Xian decided to ask for KIKI’s opinion.

KIKI nodded at his words but gave Lin Xian a glance, as if she had her own thoughts: "Saving her is easy, but aren’t you curious why they came here and what happened to the Wen Family in Jin Hai?"

Lin Xian felt a jolt in his heart, wondering why his mind momentarily dulled. It really takes KIKI to always look after and consider her family’s assets. In peaceful times, she’d definitely make an exceptional wife!

The brief interlude ended, and Lin Xian had someone bring Tang Yun some hot water and clothes from the car. After dealing with the situation inside, Luo Yang and the others went out to patrol the tunnel, leaving Lin Xian, KIKI, and a few others behind.

At this time, Tang Yun’s physical condition was extremely poor. She didn’t take the clothes and hot water handed to her. KIKI looked at her, took a deep breath, and walked over.

"Hey, we are still in Extreme Night, and danger could happen at any moment. If you want us to save you, at least cooperate a bit. It’s embarrassing being completely exposed."

Her hair was disheveled, face desolate, her head lowered, eyes seemingly devoid of light, muttering.

"What’s the big deal about a few pieces of flesh? Men and women lying there all look the same..."

After saying that, she raised her head of her own accord, examining KIKI intently, and after a long while, she spoke.

"We all thought you and your dad were dead, Wen Qi. Aunt has nothing to help you with, just advises you to be careful of that Wen family..."

"I was never a Wen, my surname is Zhao!"

Tang Yun glanced at the clothes and hot water in front of her, her eyes shifting, and said.

"I know you don’t have feelings for this Wen family, but surviving that plane crash might just be destiny..."

Upon hearing this, KIKI frowned, alert: "What do you mean?" Official source is novelFɪre.net

Tang Yun took a deep breath: "I don’t know much, but judging from the reactions of your aunt and those people after the incident with you and your dad... it seems they knew you’d run into trouble."

Lin Xian, hearing this, immediately grew interested and walked over, saying,

"Are you suggesting that his dad was set up and killed?"

Tang Yun shook her head: "I can’t be certain, but after Apocalypse Day, Wen Qi’s father took sole control, deciding the fate of the whole family in the apocalypse. He leveraged resources from construction and maritime businesses, betting on both the Federation and the Phoenix Society. Besides the Underground City plan, he also planned to trade three 50,000-ton bulk grain ships to Dawn City in exchange for a Deep Ocean Battleship ’Dragon Whale’ and an entire escort fleet for maritime escape. Additionally, working with Silent City, he was preparing to retrofit an Eternal-class Apocalypse Train at Jin Hai’s Train Industrial Center for the family members to chase the Dawn Center along land routes."
