Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution-Chapter 781 -

Talking and talking, Keke suddenly seemed to think of something, stood up, and said, "Come with me, I’ll show you something good."

"What good stuff?" Lin Shen asked curiously.

"You’ll know once you see it, you definitely won’t be disappointed," Keke said mysteriously and walked toward a small door beside, unlocking it with a key and entering.

Seeing that Lin Shen hadn’t followed him, Keke waved at him from inside the door.

Lin Shen hesitated for a moment, then stood up and followed.

After Lin Shen entered, Keke locked the small door from the inside, which startled Lin Shen.

"Don’t worry, there’s no one else here; the thing I’m going to show you will definitely surprise you and be extremely beneficial to you," the young man said as he opened another small door, leading Lin Shen through several more before arriving at a tiny room.

Lin Shen was somewhat worried; this Keke couldn’t be someone from the Diman Tribe trying to trap him.

But then he thought it unlikely; how could the Diman Tribe have predicted he would come out for a walk and set a trap here in advance.

Glancing at the small cabin, Lin Shen suddenly widened his eyes.

"This… this… this is…" Lin Shen stuttered as he pointed at the object in front of him.

"Yes, this is the Celestial Race’s Divine Statue, the real deal; the one outside is a fake," Keke said with a smile.

Lin Shen was dumbfounded; he could never have imagined that a randomly encountered staff member would show him this.

Before him was also a statue of a praying angel, but this statue looked very worn, its surface had turned gray, with many mottled and flaked-off spots.

Lin Shen found it hard to believe that this was a real Divine Statue because Divine Statues are transformed from the Immortal Life Base of the Immortals and, even without spirituality, they shouldn’t be so easily damaged.

"You brought me here to see this; won’t it affect you?" Lin Shen asked Keke.

"I’m just showing you; as long as you don’t tell anyone, nobody else will know; even if you do tell, I won’t admit it," Keke replied, smiling.

"Why would you take the risk to show me this?" Lin Shen still found it hard to imagine; no normal person would do such a thing.

"We are friends, aren’t we?" Keke, pointing at the Divine Statue, said, "Those people from the delegation probably can’t tell the real from the fake. You just need to remember a few key parts of the real Divine Statue, and when you return, you’ll be able to identify the fake one in front of them. Then they’ll naturally start respecting you as the team leader."

"When did we become friends?" Lin Shen stared at Keke, full of question marks.

If what Keke said was true, then this person was also too naive; naive to the extent that Lin Shen could hardly believe his words were true.

Lin Shen suddenly thought that Keke was no ordinary staff member; in the movie he watched before, Keke was the male protagonist, likely someone of stature, at least a celebrity or something.

In this era, becoming a celebrity isn’t just about looking good and acting; it necessarily also involves having great ability.

In the Interstellar Age, nobody worships the weak.

Keke didn’t pay attention to Lin Shen’s thoughts, pointing at the Divine Statue and said, "The place where the Divine Statue was found was a closed space, but there was a strongly corrosive liquid in that space, which has eroded it over who knows how many years, even corroding the surface of the Immortal Life Base, a detail unknown to outsiders. If you talk about this, they won’t acknowledge it. What you really need to pay attention to is those few areas..."

Keke spoke more and more genuinely, and Lin Shen began to feel that there was reason in what he said, maybe this really was the real Divine Statue.

After Keke finished speaking, he asked Lin Shen, "Did you get all that? Don’t mess it up when you talk later."

"Um... could you repeat that..." Lin Shen, feeling a bit embarrassed, took out a notebook, planning to jot down the content.

Keke had said so much, and he had only retained a gist of it; normal people can’t remember so much.

Seeing this, Keke’s expression softened a bit, and he softly said, "Don’t rush, I’ll tell you carefully, take your time to jot it down."

"Sorry to trouble you," Lin Shen said, somewhat sheepishly.

"It’s nothing, we are friends after all," Keke said with a smile.

Lin Shen, hearing this, felt the phrase seemed somewhat familiar, but he couldn’t recall where he had heard it before.

Keke had already started explaining in detail, so Lin Shen had to jot it down first.

Keke explained very thoroughly, letting Lin Shen note down each sentence as if he was afraid Lin Shen wouldn’t remember.

Lin Shen carefully recorded the differences and how to distinguish between the real and fake Divine Statues as explained by Keke, making everything crystal clear.

Why the real was real, and why the fake was fake; everything was so clearly stated that Lin Shen had to believe this was indeed the real Divine Statue.

After Keke finished, he checked Lin Shen’s notes to make sure they were accurate before returning them to Lin Shen.

"It’s good you’ve noted it down; if those people can’t figure it out, then it’s your turn to step in," Keke thought for a moment and added, "Don’t tell anyone you’ve seen me; it would do you more harm than good."

"I understand, thank you," Lin Shen now truly believed that nearly all that Keke said had been true.

"We are friends, after all; helping each other is only right," Keke said sincerely, causing Lin Shen to feel a slight touch of emotion.

"Time is almost up; they are probably finishing up their evaluation soon. You better head back; don’t miss your chance," Keke said to Lin Shen.

Lin Shen agreed and took his leave.

On the way back, Lin Shen suddenly recalled why Keke’s words sounded familiar.

"We are friends—doesn’t Tian Xin often say that? No wonder it sounded so familiar; the manner and tone of the two are somewhat similar, just the words are slightly different…" Lin Shen suddenly felt that Keke’s words might not be as sincere as he thought.

A friend in Tian Xin’s mouth is not so easy to be, and this Keke, gave him a vibe similar to Tian Xin, which made Lin Shen frown slightly.

When Lin Shen returned to the hall, Chi Jiu and several appraisal experts had already begun evaluating the Divine Statue nearby.

The protective cover outside the Divine Statue had been removed, but the staff from the Diman Tribe still did not allow them to touch the Divine Statue, let alone take anything from it for appraisal.

No one took notice of Lin Shen’s return; Lin Shen just observed from the side, comparing the details Keke mentioned, the more he looked, the more he felt it was indeed a fake.

Though he was somewhat incredulous, the facts seemed to be proving that everything Keke had said was true.
