Chapter 1665: Plane

Chapter 1665: Chapter 1665: Plane

"Wait a minute..."

"I still don’t understand." Ji You clutched her chest, feeling her heart was beating a bit fast and a bit excited. She looked at He Bi and asked seriously, "Senior, the plane you mentioned... I really don’t quite get it."

Chu Jiaojiao also opened her eyes, looking at He Bi.

Obviously, for someone with Chu Jiaojiao’s family background, it seemed odd that she had never heard of this kind of thing.

He Bi looked at Chu Jiaojiao, then at Yue Qiyuan, Shen Changqing and the others; all of them, both the former and the latter, were gazing blankly at He Bi.

In a corner where others weren’t paying attention, Liu Fufeng sat on a small stool. Upon hearing this term, his dark eyes subtly flickered; evidently, he seemed to know a bit about it.

When Liu Fufeng blinked, he suddenly caught Ji You’s inadvertent gaze and immediately lowered his head.

Seeing everyone was waiting for him to explain, He Bi didn’t explain immediately but instead asked Chu Jiaojiao, "General Chu Zhan, General Chu Ba, never mentioned it to you?"

Chu Jiaojiao shook her head.

He Bi turned to Shen Changqing, "General Shen Chi never mentioned it to you?"

Shen Changqing furrowed his brow slightly. After pondering for a while, he shook his head and said, "My grandfather never mentioned it to me, but I have come across this term before, not in my grandfather’s study, but in fantasy novels."

He Bi: "..."

He Bi’s mouth twitched slightly in astonishment, exclaimed, "Someone like you actually reads fantasy novels?"

Shen Changqing, upon hearing this, blushed immediately, explaining in a small voice, "It’s not that I read them often. I occasionally read them, and I don’t just read fantasy novels; papers, literature, anything that is documented in writing is within my reading range."

In other words, you have a wide and varied reading taste? After listening, He Bi gave a fitting summary and nodded, saying, "Reading more varied books indeed has its benefits."

How can these be considered trivial books? Shen Changqing blushed and murmured awkwardly, "Senior, these really aren’t trivial books; they’re all very useful knowledge."

"I understand, I understand, as long as you can learn from them, they are all good books." He Bi waved his hand, not intending to dwell on this. He turned to Yue Qiguang, Sheng Qingyan, and others and asked, "What about you? Did your family ever mention it to you?"

Yue Qiguang shook her head openly, and Yue Qiyuan and Sheng Qingyan also frowned and shook their heads.

Understanding dawned on He Bi, who said, "Planes are essentially spaces of different dimensions, also known as a multiverse. These spaces are in different dimensions and universes compared to us, and as for how many there are, humans have never ventured there, nor is there any relevant data to consult. According to scientists’ predictions, in places we can’t detect, there may be countless unknown planes. So... do you know where we are currently situated?"

Is there a need to ask this?

However, Ji You and the others still answered in unison, "Space rift."

After thinking for a moment, Ji You couldn’t help but interject, "Senior, so the space rift... is basically a passage connecting many planes?"

He Bi nodded and said, "You can also interpret it that way."

Seeing everyone’s gaze on him, He Bi glanced over these junior students before finally landing on where K-Q75 disappeared, speaking seriously, "The true allure of space rifts isn’t about what’s inside them, but that they harbor countless crevices. Those crevices might directly lead to an unknown plane or even lead back to the Eight Star Systems inhabited by humans."

Everyone quietly listened without interruption.

He Bi asked, "When you entered the space rift, didn’t Teacher Mu give you a briefing?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Upon hearing this, He Bi couldn’t help but raise his hand to rub his brow and said, "She’s left you so much to your own devices it’s something I never imagined."

"Cough cough..." Everyone let out a dry laugh. However, amidst the laughter, some people had a smug expression on their faces, like Yue Qiguang and Ji You.

Seeing some people were oblivious to their own situation, He Bi rolled his eyes and said, "Nicely put, it’s letting you be free; bluntly, it’s thinking you’re beyond hope, leaving you to fend for yourselves."

"Cough!" Ji You disagreed, retorting immediately, "Nonsense! Teacher Mu has faith in us, believing that we can definitely solve any problem with our super abilities and exceptional wisdom."

"Look—" He Bi pointed a finger at Ji You, saying, "It’s exactly this kind of iron fool who’s most hopeless, only left to fend for herself."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You urged, "Senior, stop speaking about irrelevant stuff. Tell us specifically about the planes."

She was extremely curious, curious enough to forget the deliciousness of spicy stir-fried shrimps, with a single-minded desire to go on an adventure to the Otherworldly!

Everyone else obviously showed great interest, craning their necks one by one, watching He Bi.

He Bi said, "Upon hearing about planes, you only see opportunity but haven’t considered the risks?"

Ji You and the others: "???"

He Bi said, "It’s a matter of life and death."

Ji You and the others: "!!!"

"Not quite." Realizing his statement was not precise enough, He Bi promptly added, "The survival rate of nine deaths and one life is too high; many times, it’s total annihilation."

Ji You and the others: "..."

Liu Fufeng opened his mouth, hesitated a bit, then actively asked, "Then... why still go?"

He Bi said, "If you don’t go, how will you find a way to solve the Star Beast scourge?"

Ji You’s heart leapt: "Are there ways to solve the Star Beast scourge in those planes?"

Seeing everyone fixated on him, He Bi’s gaze returned to where K-Q75 disappeared, speaking softly, "Inside the space rift, there might exist ways to solve the Star Beast scourge. Do you think it’s simply within this small space of the rift? Of course not. It’s the countless planes connected behind it."

Ji You thought of Little Golden Dragon, thought of the repairman...

This time, she brought Little Golden Dragon into the space rift, but adhering to Teacher Mu’s teachings, she hadn’t actively let Little Golden Dragon out until now.

Despite Little Golden Dragon staying in the Space Button, a Space Button reassembled and reinforced by Teacher Mu, it was extremely frustrated, longing to jump out immediately, but without Ji You’s permission, Little Golden Dragon could only stay put obediently.

Little Golden Dragon wanted to find the reason for the repairman’s death, wanted to find the repairman’s burial ground... Then, was that burial ground also in an unknown plane?

Thinking about this, Ji You suddenly felt a bit depressed. At the time, Little Golden Dragon insisted on going, Ji You agreed to take it, and Teacher Mu finally compromised, displaying an attitude as if they couldn’t care less, seemingly sure that Ji You and Little Golden Dragon wouldn’t find the place.

Back then, Ji You was full of confidence, believing she could definitely find it.

Turns out—

Teacher Mu’s casual attitude genuinely affirmed that Ji You and Little Golden Dragon couldn’t find the place.
