Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: Crisis and Choice

After realizing the risks that the secrets of ancient books may bring, the research path of Lin Yu, Su Yao and Liu Hao became more difficult and full of challenges.

The research base is still located in the quiet valley, and the surrounding forest is still lush and lush, like a natural barrier guarding this mysterious land. Under the sunlight, the buildings on the base are made of silver-gray metal materials that exude a calm and firm light.

Walking into the lobby of the base, the huge sculpture still stands quietly in the center, as if to remind people that the exploration of the unknown world will never stop. However, there was a tense atmosphere filling the hall at this time.

In the laboratory, Lin Yu, Su Yao and Liu Hao sat around a conference table, their faces full of worry. Lin Yu crossed his hands on the table, frowned, and looked deep and solemn. "We must find ways to deal with risks as soon as possible, otherwise our research may have irreparable consequences." His voice was low and serious.

Su Yao nodded slightly, with a trace of worry in her eyes. "Yes, we cannot let the risk become a reality. But where should we start?" Her voice was clear and slightly anxious.

Liu Hao pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, thought for a moment and said: "We must first conduct a more in-depth analysis of the secrets in the ancient books to understand the specific risks they may bring. Then, we can formulate a detailed response plan." His tone was calm and rational.

They decided to delve into ancient books again to try to find out the source of potential risks. Lin Yu returned to his studio. He sat at his desk with copies of ancient books and various research materials in front of him. He put on his glasses, picked up the magnifying glass, and carefully observed every symbol in the ancient book again. "There must be clues about risk hidden in these symbols." He whispered to himself, his eyes full of concentration.

In the studio, the sunlight shines through the windows on the desk, making it warm and bright. However, at this time, Lin Yu had no intention of enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. He only had worries about the secrets of ancient books and determination to explore them. He is constantly struggling in his heart. On the one hand, he is eager to unlock the secrets of ancient books and bring new hope for the future of mankind; on the other hand, he is afraid that the risks brought by this secret will bring disaster to the world. He didn't know whether his choice was correct, and his heart was filled with uneasiness and confusion.

Su Yao was in the laboratory, using the advanced instrument to further scan and analyze the ancient books. Her movements were skillful and focused, and her long hair was tied back, making her look particularly capable. Various data and images flashed on the screen of the instrument. Su Yao stared at the screen closely, trying to find out the key information. "This instrument will definitely provide us with more clues." She whispered, her voice full of expectation.

But deep down in her heart, she was also full of contradictions. She knows the importance of the secrets of ancient books, but is also clearly aware of the risks. She was worried that her research would cause uncontrollable consequences, but she could not give up this rare opportunity. She kept asking herself whether she should continue and whether she was equipped to deal with possible crises.

Liu Hao was in the library, checking various related documents and materials. He shuttled between the bookshelves, holding a book in his hand and flipping through it quickly. His eyes were focused and serious, as if he was looking for the key to solving a puzzle. "We can't just rely on our own research, we also need to learn from the experience and wisdom of our predecessors." He said to himself, his voice echoing in the quiet library.

Liu Hao's heart was not at peace either. He understood the significance of this research, but he also knew the seriousness of the risks. He is worried that his decision will affect the fate of the entire team, and may even have an irreversible impact on the future of mankind. He was constantly thinking about the possibilities, trying to find the best solution.

After a period of hard work, they finally made some new discoveries. Lin Yu discovered some dangerous patterns in the symbols of ancient books. These patterns seemed to warn people not to reveal the secrets of ancient books easily. "I found some patterns that may be related to risk! These patterns are very mysterious and we need further research." He said excitedly and immediately told Su Yao and Liu Hao about the discovery.

After Su Yao heard the news, she immediately put down her work and came to Lin Yu's studio. She looked at the patterns on the ancient books and frowned. "These patterns are indeed strange. They seem to be telling us that the secrets in ancient books may bring great danger." Her voice was full of worry.

Liu Hao also rushed over from the library. He looked at the pattern and fell into deep thought. "We cannot ignore the warnings of these patterns. We need to re-evaluate our research plans to ensure that we can effectively respond to risks." His words were full of caution.

They began discussing how to deal with these potential risks. Lin Yu broke the silence first, his eyes showing determination. "I think we can't stop research just because we are afraid of risks. This may be our only chance to uncover the secrets of ancient books and bring major breakthroughs to mankind."

Su Yao frowned slightly and shook her head. "But Lin Yu, if the risk really occurs, we may not be able to bear the consequences. We cannot only consider the immediate interests, but also be responsible for the safety of the entire world."

Liu Hao pushed up his glasses and said slowly: "Su Yao makes sense. We can't continue blindly. But if we give up now, all our previous efforts will be in vain. Maybe we can find a more secure method. , which can both continue research and reduce risks."

Lin Yu said with some excitement: "Where is the safe way? We have come to this point and cannot retreat. If we don't take risks, others will try it, and it may be even more dangerous by then."

Su Yao sighed. "Lin Yu, you are too impulsive. We can't make a decision based on enthusiasm. We need to calmly analyze the pros and cons and find the best solution."

Liu Hao thought for a moment and said: "We can pause the experiment first and concentrate on studying these risk patterns to see if we can find more clues. At the same time, we can also communicate with other experts and institutions and listen to their opinions."

Although Lin Yu was a little reluctant, he also knew that Liu Hao's suggestion was currently more reasonable. "Okay, then let's do what you say first. But we can't delay for too long, time is tight."

Su Yao nodded. "Yes, we need to find ways to deal with risks as soon as possible, and at the same time, we need to ensure the progress of research."

They began discussing specific plans of action, each offering their own ideas and suggestions. In this process, although they have different views, they are all working towards a common goal.

However, while they were discussing, a sudden crisis struck. An instrument in the laboratory suddenly malfunctioned and sounded a sharp alarm. Lin Yu, Su Yao and Liu Hao suddenly became nervous, and they quickly rushed to the laboratory.

"What's going on? Is the instrument malfunctioning?" Lin Yu asked in panic.

Su Yao quickly ran over and checked the instrument's display screen. "No, this is not an ordinary malfunction. The instrument detected an abnormal energy fluctuation, which may be related to the secrets in ancient books." Her voice was full of surprise and worry.

Liu Hao's expression became more solemn. "This may be the risk that we have been worried about is beginning to appear. We must act quickly, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." His words were full of urgency.

They fell into a brief silence, filled with uneasiness. This unexpected situation made their already nervous mood even heavier.

"What should we do now? Do we want to continue research?" Lin Yu asked, his voice full of hesitation.

Su Yao bit her lip and thought for a moment. "We can't give up easily, but we must be more careful. Let's observe the changes in this energy fluctuation first, and then decide whether to continue research." Her eyes revealed firm determination.

Liu Hao nodded. "Su Yao is right, we cannot be frightened by this accident. We have to stay calm and continue to proceed as planned. However, we must be prepared to respond to crises at any time." His words gave Lin Yu and Su Yao some confidence.

They nervously observed the energy fluctuations on the instrument, and every change made their hearts rise in their throats. Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and the laboratory was filled with a tense and depressing atmosphere.

After a period of observation, they found that the energy fluctuations gradually stabilized. Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that this energy fluctuation did not have much impact on our experiment. We can continue our research."

Su Yao shook her head. "No, we cannot take it lightly. This energy fluctuation may be just a warning. We must be more cautious about the secrets in ancient books." Her voice was full of vigilance.

Liu Hao also agreed. "Su Yao is right, we can't take risks. We need to re-evaluate our research plans to ensure that we can continue research under the premise of safety." His words were full of caution.

They fell into deep thought again, filled with contradictions and choices. They know that continuing to study the secrets in ancient books may bring greater risks, but they do not want to easily give up this opportunity that may change the future of mankind.

At this difficult time, they need to make a big decision. Should you continue to take risks and explore the secrets of ancient books, or should you give up temporarily and wait for a better time? This choice will determine their fate and also affect the future of mankind.
