With a smile, after brushing past the group of self-important geniuses, Babu asked,
"Should we go to the cafeteria for lunch? Seko and the others just came back from eating, and they seem fine."
Su Chen shook his head.
"Let's be careful. We haven't even fully understood the student rules yet, so it's best not to create too many complications."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Su Chen, where do we go now?"
someone asked.
"Of course, I'll take you guys to eat! Also, since we haven't fully understood the student rules, why don't we take this time to try and clarify them?"
After saying this, everyone was dumbfounded again.
Su Chen.
I understand every single word you say.
But when we put them together, why can't I understand?
Is there really such a big difference in our IQs?
At this moment, Arik, who knew he was slow-witted, gave up thinking and asked a question.
What are you thinking? Isn't it tiring to use your brain?
Isn't listening to Su Chen's explanation better?
"How do we clarify the student rules?"
he asked.
Su Chen smiled.
"It's simple. Think about it. When the Supreme Rules translated the student rules for us before we enrolled, that beam of light shot out from the pile of rubble." "
In other words, that pile of rubble was likely the stone tablet that once recorded the student rules."
"As you know, there are conflicting elements in these rules. Logically, the rules shouldn't conflict so obviously, so I think someone probably added some text to the stone tablet."
"If we restore the stone tablet, wouldn't we be able to figure out which rules were added later?"
"That way, even if we can't understand the truth of the rules, we can at least distinguish between the two camps."
"The logic will be much easier to analyze later."
After these words, everyone was instantly enlightened.
Excited expressions appeared on their faces.
Wow, following Su Chen is really great!
Everything he does is so organized!
The group quickly quickened their pace and headed towards the old school gate.
Soon, they returned to the pile of rubble beside the gate.
Su Chen stepped forward and used his foot to lift a large piece of rubble.
As the stone flipped, the inscription of universal language on the other side came into view.
Seeing these words, everyone's spirits lifted.
Su Chen was right.
This thing was most likely indeed a stone tablet inscribed with rules.
Su Chen's eyes darted around, then he looked at everyone.
"How about this, everyone divide the work. You guys do the jigsaw puzzle and restore the stone tablet to its original state. I'll take on the extra work and prepare a sumptuous lunch for everyone."
Hearing this, everyone had no objections.
Instantly, they mustered their energy and rushed towards the pile of stones, working enthusiastically.
Su Chen, meanwhile, secretly slipped away to a corner.
He pulled out a bunch of self-heating pots he had specially prepared from his system space.
He tore open the packaging, added water, and
soon the pots were bubbling and steaming.
Seeing that the sumptuous lunch was ready, Su Chen lazily stretched.
He pulled out a recliner from his system space, found a shady spot,
and started rocking comfortably.
After a pleasant nap, Su Chen was awakened by Arik's loud voice from afar.
"Su Shen, come quick! We're done!"
Su Chen jumped up, shoved the recliner into his system space, and disposed of the body.
Then he quickly ran towards the others.
Upon arriving, Su Chen's gaze immediately fell on the stone tablet.
Just as he expected,
two kinds of characters appeared on the stone tablet.
Moreover, the second kind of character was carved very lightly, very small, and even sandwiched between some regular lines.
"I counted, the third and fourth rules were added later, which means there's a problem with those two rules, right?"
Alik's eyes gleamed, proudly showing off his intelligence.
Su Chen rolled his eyes.
"Bear Baby, can we stop using our brains from now on?"
Alik was confused.
"Am I wrong?"
"Obviously not! Did you forget that the Supreme Rules weren't numbered when they were translated? How do you know the Supreme Rules weren't out of order!"
Hearing this, Alik awkwardly scratched his head.
Then he grinned at Su Chen.
At this moment, Estelle stepped forward and asked,
"So how are you going to decipher it?"
"I'm not deciphering it. Professional tasks should be left to professionals! The officials have watched this performance for so long, shouldn't they lend a hand?"
"But, isn't that wasting one of our hint opportunities?"
"It's okay, I forgot to tell you, last time I cleared the Supreme Rules, I got a reward: I can talk to the officials for five minutes every day." Upon
hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Wow!
That's amazing?
The Supreme Rules are so biased towards you? "
Wow, you're so lucky to be born in China! "
However, Estelle didn't think so.
This little girl, who had suffered greatly from the oppression of capitalists, vaguely felt that China was about to become Su Chen's laborer.
So she asked gleefully,
"Is this why you started assigning homework to China?"
Su Chen rolled his eyes.
"What homework! Don't talk nonsense! I'm just... but..."
After stammering for a while, Su Chen couldn't come up with an excuse.
Finally, Su Chen angrily yelled at Estelle,
"You traitor! You talk too much! If you reveal my secrets again, you'll have to do all these chores from now on!"
Hearing this, Estelle instantly recalled the fear of being exploited by Su Chen on the cruise ship.
The little girl's face darkened, and she quietly moved away from Su Chen.
She acted as if Su Chen were some kind of great demon.
At this moment, in the China's Ghost Stories Department, Old Qin and the others watched the live broadcast and couldn't help but smile.
This kid Su Chen is really interesting.
He always managed to bring a bit of joy to the tense mystery scenarios.
"Did everyone hear Su Chen's words? Stop standing there, quickly contact the language experts and have them decipher the common language as soon as possible,"
Old Qin said with a smile.
"Yes!"
the staff responded in unison.
Then they turned and ran out of the conference room.
After the staff left, Old Qin turned to Xiao Li and said,
"Contact the higher authorities and have them immediately send more experts to Mesopotamia."
Hearing this inexplicable statement, Xiao Li was stunned.
"To Mesopotamia? Why?"
Old Qin rolled his eyes.
"I can tell you haven't been following my instructions lately to properly study the ancient civilization history of Earth! Tell me where the sexagesimal system originated!"
"Uh..."
Xiao Li was instantly speechless.
To be honest, he had been diligently catching up on the knowledge of various civilizations recently.
However, he really didn't know the sexagesimal system.
"Idiot! Didn't I just say, Mesopotamia! Alright, stop being silly and hurry up and get this done,"
Old Qin said helplessly.
Xiao Li blushed instantly.
She nodded awkwardly and rushed out the door.
