I created the Bureau of Anomaly Control

Inside the Consultant Department, Mann raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Not long after the last discussion, he received news from Tang Xueluan again, saying that Kania had arranged a meeting with Shenxiao for him, which also showed that the Federation had no concerns about his meeting with Shenxiao.

However, he was quite looking forward to this real meeting with Shenxiao, not only because he hoped to get some guidance on the conspiracy of the two gods, but also because Mann didn't know whether Shenxiao knew about his relationship with her.

Although it sounds a bit strange, it is actually very likely that Shenxiao doesn't know what he has done, just like the Chinese characters she left in the Titan ruins, Shenxiao may not understand the meaning of what she said to Shu Yun, as for the conversation using Hong Yuan's reality-bending power, it is even more impossible for her to know.

So Mann felt that it was necessary to meet Shenxiao to avoid some embarrassing situations, but in fact, even if Shenxiao really didn't know anything, he didn't need to care too much.

Because this also means that she doesn't need to know at all.

Kania opened the door and looked at Mann standing outside expressionlessly:

"Are you ready?"

Mann followed her into the room:

"Of course."

Behind the door was a particularly empty room, the layout looked no different from other rooms in the Consultant Department, but there were no extra furniture or decorations inside.

Kania closed the door casually:

"Very good, then we will start heading to the reality-bending prison."

After she finished saying this, the surrounding air instantly became heavy.

"So, is it you and me who are going to see Shenxiao?" Mann asked curiously.

Kania said:

"That's right, but this doesn't mean that only we are present, the Federation will have senior members to observe our meeting with her, and this meeting will also be recorded for experts to study repeatedly, but these are not what we need to think about.

"Instead of caring about these, we might as well discuss some more practical issues, and it just so happens that I have always wanted to ask you something."

Mann asked curiously:

"What?"

Kania asked with a serious expression:

"I heard that you once fought against a reality-bender named Hong Yuan, and even killed him head-on."

Mann nodded:

"That's right, so you want to ask about reality-benders?"

This was not beyond his expectations, after all, the young researcher in front of him was responsible for the field of reality-benders.

Kania admitted:

"Yes, living reality-benders are the research materials we dream of, so I also want to ask…

"Are you really sure you killed Hong Yuan?"

This sentence sounds like questioning Mann at first, but combined with Kania's previous sentence, it is easy to understand that she asked this only because as a researcher in this field, she has a strong demand for reality-benders as resources.

At least that's how she showed it.

And then she immediately added, as if she had noticed the problem with her wording:

"I don't think you are lying, but based on my professional knowledge, it is difficult for dangerous creatures like reality-benders to be easily killed by ability users of the same level alone, and you may have made a wrong judgment.

"So you may think you really killed him, but this creature may have just escaped in a way you can't understand, just like the death of a destined returnee cannot be understood with normal concepts.

"Even if you really killed him successfully, you may not be able to completely disintegrate his power, I think you must have heard of the origin of hell, maybe Hong Yuan will leave something behind after his death."

Speaking of this, Kania's eyes rarely showed some hope, and her tone was more enthusiastic than ever, looking completely like a fanatical researcher of reality-benders.

Mann replied:

"No, I am sure he is dead, it was a difficult battle, I don't know if you have experience in abnormal battles, but I think it has reached that level, and if he could survive, he would have tried to retaliate against me long ago."

Kania was a little doubtful about his last sentence:

"Are you sure, it is not worth it for him to retaliate against you again, unless he is a fool, otherwise he shouldn't do that."

Mann said with a smile:

"Believe me, he is such a fool, Hong Yuan is a reality-bender, he has never encountered setbacks before he met me, powerful power does not mean equally powerful mind."

Hong Yuan did choose to retaliate against Mann after his resurrection, which is why he was killed twice.

As for whether Hong Yuan is dead, Mann did not lie, he can indeed be sure that Hong Yuan is dead as he said, because those residual powers of him as a reality-bender were all cast into a drop of blood by the "past Shenxiao".

And Hong Yuan himself does not have any reality-bending power, he must change reality by plundering other ability users, and that is why when the power belonging to Shenxiao in his body touched Shenxiao's past, he no longer had any resistance.

"Okay." Kania was lost for a few seconds, and then quickly recovered her cold expression, "It is indeed a bit unrealistic to expect him to still be alive."

Um…

It seems that Mann does not have obvious lying characteristics, his expression and tone are not abnormal, which is not difficult for abnormal ability users, but in addition, the words he said do not have any flaws, which is not so easy for ability users.

This shows that at least Mann thinks his words are true, but although I don't know enough about abnormal battles, Mann will not know how deeply I understand reality-benders, so it is still possible that Hong Yuan is still alive.

But at least, this conversation proves that Mann could not have colluded with Hong Yuan to fake a death.

This is good news for the Federation.

Kania did not fall into the emotion of losing precious materials, and then took the opportunity to collect information about reality-benders from Mann:

"Can you tell me how you killed him, if you don't mind."

Mann replied seemingly sincerely:

"Of course, mainly luck, and secondly my telepathic ability."

This was obviously not the answer Kania expected, but she did not continue to ask.

"If you have any more information about reality-benders." Kania also said seemingly sincerely, "You can come to me at any time, I will give you rewards corresponding to the value of knowledge."

Mann also took the opportunity to ask curiously:

"Are you very short of reality-bender resources now?"

Kania replied:

"Of course, the reality-benders we have are only those you have seen, although Shenxiao can cooperate with us for research now, but because of her special state, she can't conduct too in-depth research, otherwise there will be a risk of her escaping.

"And I can't study the topics I'm interested in."

He then asked:

"What aspects do you want to study?"

Kania showed a troubled look, and then thought for a few seconds before slowly saying:

"My research direction is quite complicated, but I am afraid you can't understand what I am studying, unless you receive at least three years of professional training, I will be able to explain to you my current main research content."

Obviously, Kania's sentence means that he can't understand at all, which may also be that she is euphemistically refusing Mann's inquiry, but the former is more likely, and more in line with Mann's impression of her.

Seeing this, he changed the subject and asked:

"You don't seem to have mentioned Alice, as far as I know she is also a reality-bender, isn't she?"

This is what Mann wanted to ask about, he is quite curious about Alice, the second reality-bender belonging to the Federation, and in fact, understanding her situation is likely to be of great use to him.

Alice is trapped by her reality-bending ability and mental problems, that is to say, mentally normal people may be able to use her ability, and if there is no obstruction from reality-bending power, she may be able to receive treatment.

Kania frowned slightly:

"The answer to this question is also very complicated, although this matter has not been listed as a formal secret, but they are very taboo about discussing this matter publicly, but…

"You just answered my question too."

Mann immediately said:

"If it is inconvenient to say, just forget it, I am just chatting casually."

Kania shook her head slightly:

"It's okay, I don't care about these things very much, and I am one of the few Federation members suitable for discussing this matter.

"Let's put it this way, Alice is indeed not suitable for research now, she is basically a mascot in the Federation now, if it weren't for something like the last confrontation with Atlantis, she would not have any chance to take action at all.

"But this is because of our research on her."

Mann was stunned:

"What do you mean?"

Kania said with a calm expression:

"Any reality-bender is our precious research material, we can't possibly put her aside, in fact, we started researching her when we first found her, and the person who led this project was the most outstanding scholar in this field of the research institute at that time.

"That is my teacher - Gu Lan."

Mann blinked:

"So you also witnessed the research on Alice."

She nodded:

"I was highly involved in the research on her in the mid-to-late stages, but I was not there from the beginning, so there are many crucial things that I have always been unaware of, which is actually a good thing for me.

"Because all the members of the early research team, including my teacher, are marked as 'dead' in the official database, no one was able to escape by chance, they all died in the same accident."

Mann already had a faint feeling:

"What happened."

Kania said calmly:

"Gu Lan is a true genius, I expect to become an academician of the research institute before the age of forty, but I don't think I have a chance to touch his heels in my life, and only such a self-arrogant genius can propose such an incredible and crazy plan.

"When I joined the team, they had already achieved many results for Alice, and at that time their main plan was to study how to extract the power from this girl's body and reshape it in a way that could be used by the Federation.

"They wanted to use Alice as raw material to make a powerful weapon.

"My teacher came up with detailed theories, let them understand that he had a way to transfer and reuse the power of reality-benders, and researched day and night how to transfer reality-bending power from that cooperative girl.

"Although you may think we are a bit evil when you hear these, but in fact everything was still acceptable up to this point, we did let that little girl stay inside the Federation and use her for various researches, but we did not abuse or harm her.

"She was actually quite happy at that time, as a young reality-bender with such terrifying potential, she actually lived a fairly good life, without having to fight each other or participate in bloody battles.

"This is not entirely out of kindness, but because we don't want to stimulate this reality-bender.

"In fact, many researchers liked this lovable girl at that time, and many people became friends with her, although most of them did not live to this day, but she was actually very happy at that time.

"By the way, Alice was not crazy at that time."

Mann's heart sank slightly:

"Until that accident came?"

Kania nodded slightly sluggishly:

"That's right, an 'accident' that we never thought of, we were full of confidence in her and the entire research plan at that time.

"In the earliest days, some researchers worried that she would die during the process of power transfer, but this worry quickly disappeared, because they also launched research within the team to ensure that she could survive, everything went smoothly.

"But as I said, Gu Lan is a true genius, with an IQ comparable to Zhao Lao, and his level in the field of reality-bending is unmatched, even if I give me hundreds of years, I can't reach his height at the age of thirty, and I am confident to become the scholar second only to him.

"And that is why no one thought that his theory would be wrong, or…

"No one thought that those seamless words were fake."

Mann looked at her and asked:

"What exactly happened?"

Kania said in a cold voice:

"He deceived all the researchers in the Federation, he lied in the field he was best at that could not be dismantled, he never found a way to transfer reality-bending power, from beginning to end he only discovered a way to borrow the power of reality-benders.

"His initial purpose was to borrow the power from Alice, and for this reason he defrauded a huge amount of resources from the Federation, the worst thing is that although we claimed to the outside world that it was a failed accident, in fact he did succeed.

"He concentrated most of the power from that girl on himself, became a secondary reality-bending entity attached to Alice, rampaging freely in this crazy world, and the Federation has no way to deal with him.

"So I advise you to stay away from Alice, because if you are not careful…"

"That would attract a Tier V reality-bending entity."

Click.

"Let's go." Carnia looked towards the door as if she hadn't said anything at all. "We're here."
