"Uh... I feel like you have a special interest in the Chaos Realm... You know, many people are very taboo about it."

Lloyd obviously noticed the change in Old York's expression, so he asked another question.

"Yes."

The other party nodded frankly and then explained:

"But strictly speaking, every ascetic in the Law system will be interested in that place... I think you should have heard about some of the special features of our system. 'Fighting Chaos and Establishing Order' is our extraordinary way, so any understanding of chaos will make us stronger."

As he spoke, he changed his tone to a very solemn one and added:

“This is also our first [Law].”

After hearing this, Lloyd nodded thoughtfully.

He had long known about the peculiarities of the [Law] system. People in this system liked to practice asceticism and gain power by restraining themselves, giving up enjoyment, setting up ambitions, etc. The various restraints and costs would make people very hard, so Lloyd was not interested in this.

I can only say that after all, it is the second oldest supernatural system. Just like the [Redemption] system that always gives itself a blow, it still has many flaws and drawbacks. It is far less easy, fancy, and powerful than the later systems...

However, even so, these two "Lao Deng" systems still have a huge advantage over other systems - they are particularly resistant to mental pollution, and their mental strength and resilience are also among the best.

Therefore, these two systems rarely have people out of control, and are very good at handling various mysterious and abnormal events, and can often cultivate very powerful investigators.

Having gone off topic, Lloyd pulled his thoughts back and talked to the others present about his understanding of the Son of Chaos.

When he communicated and shared with these people before, almost every word he said would be questioned and discussed. But now it was different. Not only did everyone remain quiet and listen humbly, many people took out notebooks and wrote down everything he said.

This scene made the future father-in-law who was watching from behind nod his head continuously, with a smile inadvertently appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Maybe it's the mentality of 'not afraid of my daughter getting married, but afraid of her marrying the wrong person'?

"…………Anyway, that's it. The reason why I linked the Child of Chaos to the bizarre accidents here is precisely because of the special nature of this monster. Anyone who comes into contact with it will experience unpredictable random consequences that cannot be avoided, resisted, or fought against."

Lloyd concluded by quoting the records in the Book of Truth, and then asked:

"Um...what's the problem?"

In the end, the young scholar who had been the most aggressive towards him raised his hand first, and then asked humbly:

"Um... Mr. Lloyd, please allow me to address you as such, but I really want to know how you found the Chaos Child when you encountered it, and how you escaped from it later?"

Lloyd didn't care too much about the name, and explained seriously:

"Well... I found it because of my academic research. Because it involves the rules of Mitzikatok, I am not in a position to reveal more. As for escaping... Actually, I didn't run away. It pounced on me very quickly and I had no time to evade it."

"Ah??? This... Then what will you do next..."

"Since there was no way to avoid it, I had no choice but to kill it. I suffered a strong wave of mental pollution. It was through the intensity of this wave of mental pollution that I determined its dangerousness."

Lloyd said this calmly, and stroked the gray uniform on his body with the back of his hand, saying that as a diligent executioner, his judgment of the danger level of monsters was very accurate and beyond doubt.

As a result, the others did not notice his hint at all, nor did they care whether his assessment of the danger level was accurate. Instead, they were more concerned about the word "killed".

"This... this... is simply unbelievable. It is completely beyond my imagination. That creature is bigger than the entire sky. How could it be destroyed?"

"It was so scary. I didn't even dare to look directly at the monster. I was so scared that I almost forgot to breathe, let alone use my inspiration to lock onto it..."

"Honestly speaking, when it appeared in front of me, I felt that the danger level of 10 was not enough to describe its horror and terror. Just daring to attack such a monster was already outrageous enough. How could I kill it?"

"Then... Teacher Lloyd, can you tell me what kind of power you are using? This is not an offense, but I don't detect any power fluctuations in you. It feels like you are just an ordinary person..."

"Are you stupid? You would even ask such a question? I know without thinking that this must be related to Professor Lloyd's academic project. Wouldn't you embarrass Professor Lloyd by asking this? Can you ask a more constructive question?"

"So that's how it is. Mitzkatok is so terrifying?"

If the scholars and investigators present initially regarded Lloyd as a student of the Mysterious Academy, that he was too young, too confident, too ostentatious, and even unlearned, then now they had completely come to regard Lloyd as a heavyweight authority, even more important than the eighth-rank Old York.

Anyway, it's the image of an old monster who is hiding his true colors. His youthful appearance is probably a disguise, or beautification.

So some people cast glances of both envy and sympathy towards the future father-in-law standing aside.

Future father-in-law: “???”

"Okay, okay. Anyway, although this monster is very dangerous and difficult to deal with, it is not invincible. In fact, it is not as scary as you think. As long as I can track it down, I am confident that I can deal with it."

"It's just that it's very difficult to find it, and I have to rely on your help."

Lloyd spoke again and brought the topic back on track.

"Yeah, I feel relieved when you say that! But then again... even if you have come into contact with it and defeated it, you still can't catch its trace? Then the little data we monitored can't even be considered a clue, right? Can it really help you?"

"Yeah, the holes in the papers we got can't even prove any connection with the Son of Chaos. It's really... Huh? Wait! I think I have a different idea! Come on, come on!"

Old York, who had been silent up to this point, suddenly slapped his forehead, an expression of sudden inspiration appeared on his face, then he quickly left his seat, ran to the instruments, and began to operate them.

Several other people followed and after watching silently for a while, they nodded vigorously as if they suddenly understood.

"I see. It seems we went in the wrong direction at the beginning. Wait a moment. I will help you adjust the parameters of these devices."

"I understand, too. Our method is indeed effective. It's just that we didn't know at the beginning that this thing had such strong randomness, so we still followed the conventional process in setting some ranges, and naturally we couldn't get any effective conclusions."

"It is also thanks to Teacher Lloyd that he took us to the Chaos Realm and saw what the Son of Chaos looks like. Otherwise, we would probably be trapped in inertial thinking forever. It is really like what Old York said. We all have to thank Teacher Lloyd for giving us such a precious opportunity!"

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. Help me adjust the final calculation formula, and then recalculate the previous readings again."

The entire discussion group, or advisory team, became busy all of a sudden. Lloyd didn't know much about their research and was still out of the loop, so he naturally had no way to intervene. He could only watch them busying themselves.

Fortunately, these people were very efficient and Lloyd didn't have to wait too long. He soon produced a long new piece of paper filled with various holes, which seemed to be the conclusion they had recently calculated.

Compared with the previous completely disordered and basically randomly distributed holes, the conclusions drawn this time can already clearly show some regularity and convergence.

However, after Old York read the long and narrow piece of paper, his brows furrowed and he took a deep breath.

"Hiss~ Still no use, still a little off... The current readings point to that mysterious space realm, but none of us have any knowledge of space, so we can't interpret this data at all!"

"Ah? It's pointing to the space field? This..."

"This isn't surprising, right? Didn't Teacher Lloyd say this before? The Son of Chaos exists in the realm of chaos. Theoretically, it is difficult for it to interfere with the world we live in. If it wants to come out of the chaos, it must have the ability to transform space, right?"

"Yes, so these traces we captured should be some kind of spatial coordinates? Uh... why are you all looking at me? I just happened to have heard of this term, and I don't even know what it means specifically."

"That means we need to find a scholar who is well-versed in space to interpret these readings and replace them with space coordinates. Then we can track down the whereabouts of the Son of Chaos?"

"That's the principle, but where can we find such a scholar? Neither I nor the Lord have the good fortune to come into contact with a scholar of this level..."

Old York said this with a look of regret on his face, and then he slammed the table hard with great reluctance, cursing:

"Damn it! It's just the last step left, and it turns out to be the most crucial step."

Just at this moment, Lloyd came closer and said calmly:

"Show me."

"Oh? Right! You, Mitzkatok, seem to be researching space technology, right? Do you also have research in this area?"

"Understand a little bit."

Lloyd smiled but didn't say anything too definite, because this kind of hole-like spatial coordinates was the first time he encountered it.

Fortunately, once I actually got my hands on it, the advantages of high-level [Spatial Domination] came into play.

"It's actually a spatial coordinate? I didn't expect it could be calculated with such primitive... oh no, I mean simple equipment?"

Lloyd was also a little surprised by this conclusion.

Although these holes are still far from the spatial coordinates that Lloyd actually uses on a daily basis, further verification is still required to obtain truly valid coordinates. The data is still in the early stages.

But it was also surprising enough. These people had no knowledge of space at all, and the equipment they used was extremely simple, yet they were able to come up with relatively effective data in the end?

All I can say is that the old saying still holds true: never underestimate the heroes of the world.

Although this is unexpected, it is also reasonable. The future father-in-law is not a fool, and the reinforcements he brought in cannot be a fool. It is reasonable for them to be capable.

"How is it? Is this data valid?"

Old York asked with great concern.

"Wait a minute, I need to convert it."

Lloyd nodded and responded simply, then he casually took out the three-piece space equipment set that he always had in his pocket and began to calculate the coordinates indicated by these holes.

With the help of [Space Domination], the process was not slow, and a more detailed set of coordinates was quickly obtained.

But Lloyd looked at it carefully for a while, then frowned and habitually raised his hand to twist his chin.

This change in expression made Old York at the side feel anxious, and he quickly asked:

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"No, the data is valid, but the conclusion surprised me..."

Lloyd shook his head, picked up a piece of white paper on the table, folded it in half, poked a hole through it with a pen, and then began to explain:

"The principle of space teleportation is actually very simple. It's like poking two holes in a piece of paper to form a channel connecting two spaces. The locations of these two holes are the space coordinates we are looking for..."

"At that time, the actual application would definitely be a little more complicated. I just wanted to make it easier for you to understand..."

"What's odd to me right now is that the two holes you monitored don't directly correspond to each other as they appear on paper...

In short, one end of the hole did fall into this manor, proving my previous speculation that something dirty did come here quietly through the space channel and brought a series of bizarre accidents, but we could not observe and discover it. "

"However, the other end of the hole is not the distant coordinates I predicted before, but a series of constantly changing punctuation marks that roughly define a range. They are very close, closer than anyone expected..."

Lloyd said as he took a map next to him and drew a circle on it with a pen.

This is a map of the Brilliant City, and the location he circled is exactly within the scope of the abandoned city...
