Chapter 40 Dream Divination
In the wilderness of knowledge,
Wang Xiaoming stood above the deserted Dajing City, where the traces he left last time were still preserved.

This is the city he created using the information contained in the wilderness of knowledge, fake yet real.

He waved his hand, and the entire city disappeared in an instant, and then a tall black tower appeared in front of him.

The Black Tower is the product of the combination of the potion and the source core. It is a combination of concepts and authority.

Wang Xiaoming stepped into the black tower and was instantly surrounded by a white veil of endless knowledge and information. This was an ocean of information and the brilliance of knowledge.

Surrounded by white gauze, Wang Xiaoming came to the top of the tower. He stood at the highest point and slowly sat down. The gauze formed a high-backed stone chair behind him with complex patterns engraved on the back of the chair.

He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and entered a meditative state, silently repeating what he wanted to divine.

Slowly, he seemed to fall into a deep sleep, yet also seemed to be awake. In this state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, he seemed to see something, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see it clearly.

Until he exited the dream divination, Wang Xiaoming still didn't see the message in the dream clearly.

Sitting high on a stone chair in the black tower, Wang Xiaoming closed his eyes and recalled the scene in his dream. It was also a blurry picture and he could not see clearly.

"It seems that I have underestimated the importance of the spiritual world and the star world to dream divination. The ability of dream divination is temporarily useless."

"But the blessing of the Knowledge Wilderness's status still has some effect. In reality, I can't dream of anything, but in the Knowledge Wilderness, at least I dreamed of something."

Wang Xiaoming thought optimistically about leaving the wilderness of knowledge.

Thinking about going to the headquarters in the afternoon, he counted the unused identification talismans in his hand and found that quite a few were used when identifying the ghost rider's blood in the morning, and only three intact talismans were left in his hand.

In order to deal with the research on the ghost in the suit in the afternoon, Wang Xiaoming took advantage of the lunch break to make another batch of identification talismans.

Now that dream divination cannot be used and there is no shortcut, he can only rely on his brute force to get through.

It was 3:30 in the afternoon and the experimenters in Laboratory No. 3 were all busy.

Wang Xiaoming walked out of Laboratory No. D. At this time, he had already memorized all the mysterious runes in the blood of thirty ghost riders and obtained more than three hundred new runes.

Including the spiritual runes he had mastered before, he has now memorized 781 of them, and he has also discovered five repeated runes. However, the data is too little and he is unable to summarize the patterns. Now he can only rigidly use some of the spiritual runes in the spiritual transformation ritual.

Arriving at Laboratory C where Pang Dong's experimental group was located, Wang Xiaoming temporarily stopped their experiment and gathered everyone together.

Seeing everyone's nervous expressions, Wang Xiaoming smiled and said, "I have no other intention in talking to you this time. I just want to say a few words to you."

"After the successful development of the spiritual gunpowder a few days ago, I said that I would apply for a reward for you. I wonder if you have received it?"

When Wang Xiaoming introduced the magical gunpowder to Zhao Jianguo, he specifically talked about the contributions of his subordinates, which was also a way to commend them. Considering the importance the headquarters attached to the magical gunpowder, these people should have received special care from the headquarters.

"Thank you for your concern, professor. We have all received rewards. Not only a lot of money, but also housing in Dajing City was arranged for us." Pang Dong, as the leader of the experimental group, spoke on behalf of everyone.

"It's just that," Pang Dong changed the subject, "everyone feels unworthy of it. After all, the experiments are led by the professor, and we all do the experiments under the professor's command. It can be said that it would be equally possible if someone else did it. Now that we are given so many rewards, everyone feels a little uneasy."

Wang Xiaoming looked at everyone present, most of them did not dare to look at him, they all lowered their heads and did not speak. Seeing this scene, Wang Xiaoming also understood that some of these people did feel unworthy of the award as Pang Dong said, but some people did not think so, but they could not refute Pang Dong's idea when communicating with their colleagues, so they could only echo him.

Who would have thought that Pang Dong was such a fool and spoke directly. For a moment, these people did not dare to look at Wang Xiaoming, for fear that he would take back the rewards.

"Haha!" Wang Xiaoming chuckled and said, "Pang Dong, you are wrong to say that. Although I was the leader of the experiment, you were the ones who did it. How can you say that you are unworthy of it?"

"Professor is right. I originally thought so, but I didn't expect..."

Wang Xiaoming interrupted, "I didn't expect the reward to be so generous, did you?"

"Haha! I've always heard of people getting upset because they were given too little money, but this is the first time I've seen someone getting upset because they were given too much money."

"Pang Dong!" Wang Xiaoming called out his name, "And you, being able to enter my laboratory means you are the world's top talents."

"The fact that you have researched supernatural gunpowder further demonstrates your abilities. You deserve these rewards."

"Whatever achievements you make, you will be rewarded accordingly. This is the rule, the system, and the responsibility."

Just like Wang Xiaoming’s position as the person in charge of the experimental base, does he need it?

He didn't need it. The headquarters had never rejected his requests. It made no difference to him whether he was the head of the base or not. It was just an extra title.

But why did the headquarters, or the Five Ministries Council, give him the title of base leader?
To put it bluntly, if the salary is commensurate with the work done, those who have worked hard will be encouraged and those who have not worked hard will be envious.

Most people in the lab didn't understand what Wang Xiaoming meant by responsibility at the end. Only Pang Dong seemed to be thinking about it.

Wang Xiaoming then communicated with everyone present before turning around and leaving.

Wang Xiaoming came to Laboratory C not just to exchange feelings, but with a certain purpose. He planned to send Pang Dong's experimental team to the headquarters to be responsible for the extraction of ghost fire supernatural materials.

On the one hand, it is because they are participants in the research of supernatural gunpowder and have relevant experience, so they can easily get started with the experiments; on the other hand, sending them to the headquarters can also provide better protection and monitoring.

There is no way around it. Once the information about the supernatural gunpowder is leaked, both domestic and foreign ghost-controlling forces will try every means to obtain the secret of the supernatural gunpowder.

If these people stay in the experimental base, it will not only harm themselves but also bring danger to other people in the base.

As for Wang Xiaoming himself, he will reduce his appearances after the release of the supernatural bullet, or go to the headquarters to live and wait for the storm to pass.

The name of the supernatural gunpowder is great and its power is quite powerful, but ghosts are immortal and supernatural beings are indestructible.

When people realized that supernatural gunpowder could not eliminate the weirdness or end the supernatural era, and that it was just an ordinary supernatural item, the storm passed.

After all, it is not worth going against a world power because of a mass-produced supernatural item. Everyone has one or two supernatural items that can be mass-produced.

At most, we can conduct a secret investigation and collect files.
