Chapter 364: The Gathering of Human Worlds
After school at noon on November 11, Zhao Yuxi stopped Xu Yingze and Mu Zhengguang at the school gate: "He and I will be getting married on the fifth of next month. Here is the invitation. Keep it. The date and location are on the invitation. You two will be on the top floor of Snowflake Tower No. 30."
Gu Tingzhu saw Zhao Yuxi pointing at him. After she finished speaking, he added two more words embarrassedly: "You have already sent gifts, so you can just come empty-handed. You don't need to bring an invitation, it's just a formality."
Xu Ying took the two metal plates and handed one to her classmate: "I understand. We will definitely go empty-handed."
Mu Zhengguang smiled at the two people and said, "Well, thank you for the invitation."
"You're welcome. I have one more thing to ask of you. My assistant will deliver invitations to the people in the branch this afternoon. Please ask all the ancient and recent ancient people in the branches of the research institute under your jurisdiction to go to Xiangye City and wait for them this afternoon."
Xu Ying was the first to say "OK", followed by Mu Zhengguang who also said "OK".
In Youlong City, the director of the research institute Zhou Xutong was having lunch in the restaurant when suddenly someone sat down opposite him.
"Dean, this is the invitation that Dean Zhao Yuxi asked me to bring to you." Xie Yanqi placed the metal plate on the table, and then took out two folded branch dean writing papers from his pocket and placed them on both sides of the metal plate. "These are two decrees written by Dean Zhao Yuxi. I need your help to publish them as soon as possible."
Sending an invitation is not strange, but sending a decree is a bit unbelievable. Zhou Xutong wanted to see the decree, but when he reached out his hand, he first picked up a metal plate, the color of which was almost the same as the writing paper.
"Please tell Dean Zhao Yuxi that I received her invitation and I also accepted the decree she wrote. Did she also ask you to send invitations to other people in the main hospital? I will help you gather them together."
"Thank you, Dean."
Zhao Yuxi's secretary is responsible for delivering invitations to people in the main hospital, and her assistant is responsible for delivering invitations to people in the branch hospitals. The secretary's task is relatively simple, while the assistant's task is relatively complex.
Gu Tingzhou's secretary Chen Qingke was working with Qin Zhouxing to transform the world. After Chen Qingke received the news from Gu Tingzhou, he immediately left Qin Zhouxing behind and went straight to Jujiang City, where he got an invitation and rushed to the headquarters of the Academy of Sciences.
Gu Tingzhou's nine assistants went to three branches of the Academy of Sciences in groups of three. Before arriving at the branch, Zhao Yuxi's assistant met them and not only gave them invitations, but also gave them many other people's invitations, asking them to send these invitations to people in the Academy of Sciences.
That afternoon, Mu Zhengguang and Xu Ying met Zhao Yuxi's assistant Yu Xinyi at the Xiangye City branch of the research institute.
Based on the list, Yu Xinyi sent invitations to all medieval people and a small number of modern people. The invitations to medieval people seemed like a routine matter, while the invitations to modern people seemed like a reward.
On December 12, Zhou Xutong used the power of the people to issue a decree, which mainly contained two contents. One was to let outstanding modern, contemporary and contemporary people actively go to Dongting Lake to attend the wedding on December 1. The other was to take a holiday, that is, on December 12, everyone would have a holiday.
On December 12, Zhou Xutong and the president of the Academy of Sciences jointly issued a decree in the two houses, which detailed the rules of the wedding, such as the rules for dinner parties. Family and friends can be brought to the wedding, but they cannot go up to the Snowflake Tower, but must stay in the room under the Snow Tower.
On December 12, Zhao Yuxi sent invitations to the ancients, medievals, and recent ancients under his command who did not belong to the two houses, asking them to attend the wedding. This group of people were also on the ground, but they did not sit with ordinary people, but ate in their own wooden houses. It was also on this day that Qin Zhouxing received the invitation.
On December 12, Zhao Yuxi entered the fourth stage. She used her mind radiation to analyze various emergencies that might occur at the wedding scene with Gu Tingzhou, as well as ways to solve them. These methods generally have only one theme: to manipulate the direction of everything with the help of perception.
On the morning of December 12, the tables, chairs, plates, signs, and maps were all set out.
On the afternoon of December 12, Yu Xinyi came to the lake and looked at the Sky City from afar. The diameter of the Sky City is about 4 meters, and its bottom to top is about 400 meters, and its bottom is about 150 meters from the ground. Such a huge thing can actually float steadily in the air.
The top of the Sky City and the top of the tower are about the same level as the bottom of the castle. Compared with the Sky City, the tower is too simple, and compared with the castle, the Sky City is too plain. The dean spent an astonishing amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources for her wedding!
Yu Xinyi found her seat in amazement, on the fifth floor from the bottom of Tower 3.
At 12:5 on December 0, Xie Yanqi arrived below the Sky City. She thought he should be one of the first people to arrive, but things went far beyond her expectations.
The lights on the ground were continuous and colorful. Some of the white wooden chairs were actually occupied by people? Who were they? Why did they come so early? Were they all staff members?
Xie Yanqi was full of doubts. She followed the lights to the foot of the mountain, where there were the most people. When she arrived at the foot of the mountain, she was shocked to find that Dean Zhao Yuxi was also there.
"Xie Yanqi, you are here. I want to know why they came so early. Can you tell me the reason?" Zhao Yuxi saw fear in Xie Yanqi, which was probably the emotion emitted after the plan failed.
In fact, her plan also fell through. She had planned to have dinner in Sky City and spend the night with Gu Tingzhou in the courtyard of the King of Dongting Lake, but before she could go to the courtyard, she saw many guests here. When the guests came, the host had to stay.
Xie Yanqi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "They may want to come early to leave a good impression on you."
Xie Yanqi herself thought so, and she put it into practice, but unfortunately many people came earlier than her, and those people came the day before the wedding. She calculated the time accurately, and arrived at 0:00 on the new day, which was also late.
"It's pretty much what I guessed. This really impressed me. There is a hotel in Sky City. Ask those who came early to get a room in the hotel and stop walking around here. I'll be leaving soon, and there's no point for them to stay here."
Although there were many people, there were no ancients among them, so Zhao Yuxi could still calmly delay the matter until Xie Yanqi came and asked her to help deal with these things. Xie Yanqi was always very positive, and she arrived at 0:00, just in time.
"Yes, I understand. I will definitely convey your order to them."
"It's not enough to just convey the order. Many people haven't reached the third level yet, so you have to send them up. It's okay if they don't want to live in the sky city, and it's okay if they want to stay on the ground for one night. You just need to send those who need help up. Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
Zhao Yuxi unfolded the asymptotic domain, scanned the people in the domain, and found Gu Tingzhou. She used the elemental dissolution to come to his side: "Xie Yanqi is here, we can go to rest, I don't want to doze off at the wedding."
Gu Tingzhou had just finished a conversation and was sitting in a wooden chair in a daze. This high frequency of socializing made him a little overwhelmed. Zhao Yuxi's words gave him hope, and he stood up: "Finally, I can go."
In the early morning of December 12, Gu Tingzhou and Zhao Yuxi had not yet arrived at the wedding scene, but the staff were already busy cleaning the scene and placing one million roses.
After the roses were arranged, someone rolled back the curtain of night and the sky suddenly became dark.
The full moon, stars, rainbows, and rain of light appeared one after another, bringing light back to this strange little world.
When Zhou Xutong came, he brought all the vice presidents of the research institute with him. He saw the darkness that covered the sky. The small world shrouded in darkness was similar to a cylinder, and the radius of the cylinder exceeded the radius predicted by the second-order asymptote. He thought that Dean Zhao Yuxi had really put a lot of effort into this wedding, turning day into night.
Zhou Xutong walked into the darkness, where there were suspended cities, towers, non-existent mountains, castles in the mountains, separated lakes, forests, and seas of flowers. This wedding must be the most prosperous and romantic.
The union of two ancients, two branch deans, and two spokesmen of the Star Lords is of vital importance, and perhaps only such a wedding is worthy of them.
Zhou Xutong was not in a hurry to sit in his special seat. The scenery on the ground was also good. He wanted to see more. If he sat too high, it would be difficult to see the flowers and plants here, and he would ignore the "Picking is allowed" sign in the sea of flowers. He took a green rose from the flowers, which was very similar to the color of writing paper.
Ji Chengxuan, the dean of the Academy of Sciences, arrived a little later. She did something similar to Zhou Xutong. She brought all the vice deans of the Academy of Sciences with her. This was an agreement between her and Zhou Xutong. After reaching her destination, Ji Chengxuan immediately ran to the central snowflake tower. There were many rooms in the high walls that made up the central snowflake tower. There were only six rooms on the top floor, and her room was among them.
Gu Tingzhou and Zhao Yuxi arrived at the wedding scene at about nine in the morning. They changed their clothes in the courtyard of the King of Dongting Lake and used elemental dissolution to reach the room on the top floor of the castle.
The footsteps and conversations coming from the bottom of the mountain made Zhao Yuxi feel a little noisy. She expanded her perception domain and knew every move of everyone in the domain. She used asymptotes to analyze and organize information, and heard more sounds, but her ears became more "quiet".
There are fifteen vice presidents in the institute: Duan Shucheng, Yang Duhui, Liu Lijuan, Xia Mengyuan, Zhang Shiquan, He Yuehao, Zhu Chenyu, Wan Caolin, Ye Cun, Yan Wei, Zhao Mingyang, Cao Lanlan, Li Yue, Guo Shiyuan, and Tang Siqi.
The ten vice presidents of the Academy of Sciences are Zhou Kelin, Zhou Ziyan, Li Hengyu, Guo Wei, Xie Shuchen, Guo Jinglei, Hu Mengyue, Zhang Congying, Liu Yi, and Liang Jinduo.
These people are here.
Zhao Yuxi used mind radiation to convey a message to Gu Tingzhou: There are too many ancients here, you and I should try not to communicate with words. To be on the safe side, our asymptotic domain remains open, and if an emergency occurs, use elemental dissolution immediately. The dean and vice dean are all here, but Xu Yingze and Mu Zhengguang are not here yet. You should also use your perception to look at the surrounding environment.
The perception domain and the direction domain worked together. Gu Tingzhou noticed that there were some dangerous prisoners in the Sky City prison, including the Sky Line Ancient Sun Jingqi whom he captured.
The people in the Academy of Sciences can all take a holiday, but they cannot stop working. The ancients who are used as experimental subjects must be guarded at all times. The ancients who are used as experimental subjects are slightly better, but the people responsible for guarding them cannot leave for a long time.
Nowadays, almost all the ancients and middle-aged people in the entire Academy of Sciences are not in the academy. To prevent accidents, they also brought the experimental subjects to the wedding. The members of the Academy of Sciences are on the Snowflake Tower, and the experimental subjects are in the prison below them. Their asymptotic domain is enough to cover the experimental subjects.
It was Zhao Yuxi's idea to put the experimental subjects in the Sky City. Gu Tingzhou had not expected these people or this matter. He was delighted and grateful to see that things were developing according to Zhao Yuxi's plan.
But in this case, there are really too many ancients at the wedding scene, both normal and abnormal. If any of the ancients here lose control, it may bring crisis to some people. Fortunately, Zhao Yuxi did not invite those very unfamiliar ancients, otherwise he would not be able to calm down and watch these people walk around and sit down.
"I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little nervous. Gu Tingzhou, are you nervous?"
Thought radiation again. Does this kind of thing also require thought radiation? Probably. Those ancients who unfolded the asymptotic domain can more or less hear our conversation. This is not something to be proud of, so it is better for fewer people to know about it.
"You planned this all so well, I like it very much, I'm not nervous at all."
"Tingting, I can tell the truth from the falsehood of the information transmitted by thought radiation." Zhao Yuxi clearly saw that what he said, "I'm not nervous at all," was a lie. Judging from the emotions of both parties, Tingting was even more nervous than her.
Gu Tingzhou did not show any shame or panic after his lie was exposed. He used the power of direction to divert his emotions. Zhao Yuxi was nervous. If he was nervous too, it would be irresponsible.
"No one can deceive you with mind radiation, so I feel more at ease."
"Don't change the subject. Do you think the wedding dress I chose is beautiful?"
Xiaoxi said "Don't change the subject", but she changed the topic from nervousness to wedding dress. Was it the wedding dress that made her nervous? Maybe it was. She spent a long time choosing a wedding dress and finally found one that could match my casual clothes.
"I think it's beautiful. I've always thought so."
"Sometimes I think that as long as you think it looks good, that's enough. Other people's opinions are not important. But when I think about appearing in front of so many people, wearing this wedding dress and appearing in front of so many people with you, I get a little scared. I'm afraid that the wedding dress is not perfect enough, and I'm afraid that I'm not perfect enough."
"Don't be afraid. We are all imperfect. The guests who come to the wedding are not perfect either. A few days ago, I was worried that there were so many spokespeople coming to the wedding. Would I forget their names and positions? Look, I remember them now, don't you want me to recite them to you?"
Thought radiation can be accompanied by sound, but it will consume more physical strength. At this moment, Zhao Yuxi chose to let Gu Tingzhou consume physical strength, because his voice can make people feel at ease.
"it is good."

"You have a good memory. You have memorized the names and positions of so many people. We have made so many preparations. Even if there are any mistakes, they will not be too big. Even if there are still areas for improvement, they will not be too many. I don't seem to be that nervous anymore, Tingting. Can you tell me what you are nervous about?"
“I’m afraid I’m not good enough.”
There are four more words behind "not good enough" that Gu Tingzhou didn't say. Those four words are, "not worthy of you". Regardless of whether they are worthy or not, the two have already obtained a marriage certificate and lived together. If he insisted on emphasizing this little inferiority, he would seem too strange and too ignorant.
"Among the people you just mentioned, the most powerful one is Li Zhiyi. He is a level 5 Ancient, just like you. You are already very good. Expand the asymptotic domain, but don't use the asymptote anymore. Let's just wait quietly for a while, like an ordinary couple."
While they were waiting, many more guests arrived, including Mu Zhengguang and Xu Yingze.
Mu Zhengguang asked his secretary to use the elemental dissolution to send him and Xu Yingze to the Sky City. According to his own domain radius, he could not use this ability, and he did not want to jump into the city. This was Zhao Yuxi's wedding, he should not jump up and down, and he could not let Ying jump up and down with him.
Snowflake Tower No. 3 belongs to the Medieval Ones, and the levels in the tower are clear. For example, for members of the Institute, at the top are the Deans of the Branches, and below the Deans of the Branches are the Executives, followed by people working at the Main Institute, the Secretary of the Medieval Ones, the Assistants of the Deans of the Branches, the Secretary of the Medieval Ones, and the Station Masters.
The secretary sent the two men to the top floor, while Mu Zhengguang and Xu Ying found room number one, entered, and opened the curtains and windows.
Mu Zhengguang wanted to stand by the window for a while longer, but he was not sure whether this behavior would be considered abrupt or rude.
Xu Ying saw his concerns and walked over to him: "The scenery here is nice. The party hasn't started yet, let's look at it for a while."
"Ah."
