Chapter 1189: The Future That Exists in the Past, the Past That Exists in the Future, and The Present That Exists in the Present
Of course, there are other things besides this threat - such as Alice's identity.
The Holy Ancestor of the Alien Race.
Alice is the Ancestor of the Paranormal Race...... Of course, it doesn't mean that Alice is in the era of the Ability Race, which is similar to the group of people who originally existed in Zài, but that in addition to the ability she shared with Zhao Nan, she also hides another ability that is exactly the same as the True Saint Ancestor of the Ability Race Era. In the history of the Epoch, those who possessed such abilities were considered to be the Ancestors—more accurately, the successors of the Ancestors.
But this is not a status that is admired by all - on the contrary, it is a status that is spurned, and since the breakdown of the Epoch, the successor of the Holy Ancestor will be hunted down by all the Anomalous people if they are discovered.
Because this original ability was - Ability Nullification.
That is, it denies the contradictory capacity of the civilization in which it lives. At first, the Holy Ancestor who possessed this ability used it as punishment for those who misused it. However, in the middle of that era, a successor appeared who used this ability as a weapon to rule the world under high pressure.
Then came the rebellion and extermination from the whole world—and from then on, the attitude of the Age of Abilities towards the Inheritors of the Holy Ancestors was to kill one by one.
Alice discovered at a very young age that she had hidden this ability of neutralization, and she had to keep it hidden in order to preserve herself.
Worried about being discovered, worried that the people around him will leave him because of this, and even showing his malice to himself, walking on thin ice every hour of every day, the difficulties of life can be imagined.
The reason why I don't want to complete the same tone with Zhao Nan is that in addition to not wanting to expose my guilt, there is probably the fear that is rooted in my heart.
Of course, Zhao Nan's attitude towards Alice having this ability is...... Actually, it's useless, this is not an Epoch civilization. Even if Alice eliminated the ability she already had against Zhao Nan, there was actually no loss for him.
The root of his strength is will...... Alice had no way of invalidating his will, not even the will of anyone in this era.
Knowing this, Alice naturally relaxed a lot...... Or rather, the whole child became more agile, more cheerful than ever before, and enthusiastically engaged in the final stage of the emotional circuit.
The war is still going on...... However, looking at the back of Alice, who was constantly giving instructions to Iverson, Zhao Nan was thinking at this time...... Why does the truth know that Alice is the Patriarch?
Is it because they often come and go in the Forsaken Lands, and they learn about it from the remnants of the Alien Race in the Forsaken Lands, or is it something else?
In general, there will be a preference for the possibility of the former...... However, Zhao Nan felt that this was not the case.
……
……
The war ended after a day, and there were only about three hundred of the thousand-digit containers left, and only ninety-nine of them were really ripe enough to be taken out and used.
Less than 1 in 10 success rates.
The success rate is naturally extremely low, but if you compare it with Iverson's brutal history of developing emotional circuits, this success rate is so high that Mr. University Scholar is full of embarrassment.
The fully mature circuit can be dug out, and the container can be implanted into the newly created emotional circuit once again and put into cultivation again.
The biggest advantage of these bodies from the Abandoned Lands of the Great Era is that they are strong and tough enough, unlike the Demon Tools, who require a lot of cost to carry out various maintenances, and are not easily damaged.
"If I had known this, I wouldn't have had to attack myself...... A lot of containers were wasted. ”
This is the sigh of annoyance that the girl resembles after the peace.
In the real room of the world-shattering battleship, a group of scholars are busy digging out mature emotional circuits from the body of the container. The metal collar around their necks had long since disappeared, and Alice even mischievously told the scholars...... These collars don't actually explode.
Iverson, who knew the truth, wanted to go crazy on the spot...... However, Zhao Nan was on the side, and his appearance was flat...... The more bland this guy is, the more terrifying it is.
With this realization, Iverson could only accept this unfair treatment as if he were destined to do so—or for him, and for many scholars, all unhappiness had disappeared by the time he harvested these ninety-nine mature emotional circuits.
The essence of the scholar family seems to be to pursue this kind of thing.
"This is the circuit that has been taken out completely!" Iverson's expression was a little excited: "It can be said that it was a complete success!" However, this kind of emotional circuit seems to be inherently aggressive, and it will not be as gentle as Locke, of course, in the end, it depends on the cultivation of the day after tomorrow. After all, these artificial souls are now like newborn babies. ”
On the tray, the six first batch of dug out emotional circuits are neatly arranged, slightly exuding colorful brilliance. When the brilliance faded, what was revealed was a very complex loop tree.
Artificial Soul ...... There is no difference between it and a real soul.
No, it should be said that there is no difference at all from those false souls of this world...... But it's not a true soul.
But this is already the limit of magic technology, and what can be achieved is already the level of most pseudo-souls in the world...... This is already challenging the only forbidden area, right?
Zhao Nan was looking at one of the mature circuits, and his eyebrows suddenly jumped, "Why is my lettering here?" ”
Iverson looked at Alice beside Zhao Nan with an innocent expression...... The latter wrinkled his little nose and said, "Aren't these scholars from the First Magic Research Institute in Wind City?" You are the master of the institute, of course, in your name. ”
"It's all bureaucracy...... Is this also popular among your abilities? Zhao Nan suddenly cried and laughed, and immediately shook his head: "In the future, whoever the loop comes from will be named after whomever it is...... Forget about this batch, especially this one, when we started together, I originally planned to use this to name me in the mass production plan. ”
"This?" Alice looked curiously at the thing that Zhao Nan was holding in her hand at this time, "Why does it have to be this?" Real yàn as No. 3? Do you like the number 3? ”
Zhao Nan put away this circuit and entered the room that once belonged to him alone.
……
……
Shi yàn made No. 3 at this time on the small round table next to the bed, Zhao Nan reached out and tapped lightly on the small round table, and said in a low voice: "I will destroy this thing immediately...... There will be no one with the same title in the future, future goddess, aren't you going to come out and meet me? ”
Time seems to have been stopped, and when it appears, it seems as if it just appeared...... It's like cutting right in from a certain point in time.
I can't see how it came from, or where it came from. What I saw was that she or it appeared in front of me at this time.
Time...... Goddess of the Future.
Zhao Nan threw the emotional circuit in his hand to the future goddess who was standing silently. I saw that the face of the future goddess first showed a look of surprise, and then as if she understood something, she nodded and said, "Is it...... Have you met with me further aback? ”
Zhao Nan was curious: "For you, isn't the future time common?" Why be surprised? ”
"The common is not continuous, and the future will only have meaning if it exists in the future. For you now, I am just a future in the past, and just like the real first meeting, a past future. Only in this way can zài be saved. The goddess of the future said indifferently.
"But it's all the same, isn't it?" Zhao Nan shook his head and sighed, "You should know my intention to call you over, right?" ”
The future goddess said indifferently: "I came back here simply to keep the current time from chaos, not to answer your questions...... You don't want your past to diffuse, do you? Allow yourself to be another branch of diffusion in this moment, don't you? ”
Zhao Nan's eyes blinked suddenly, revealing a curious expression, during which the circuit that had fallen into the hands of the future goddess flew back into his palm again, "I'm curious, if I don't give you this circuit here, does it mean that something will disappear from my memory forever?" ”
The future goddess still said calmly: "If it is something that has not happened, where is the memory? What is stored in zài is just another diffuseness. But even if you don't give me this circuit, there is no problem, purely in terms of the existence of this circuit, it is not enough to change the direction of history, and the partially diffused world will always be closed. ”
Zhao Nan sighed and said, "Then there is no way, after all, I really don't want to let myself become another one in the diffusion." Take it and give it to the magic maid named Jia'er, and help me sue her, and thank her for her hospitality to me in the future. ”
"Well, then, I'll take my leave." The goddess of the future nodded, no sorrow or joy.
At this time, Zhao Nan suddenly said, "Can I ask you a question?" ”
The future goddess frowned and said, "I said, I'm not here to answer your question. ”
"What is the mirror that the truth left me for?" Zhao Nan ignored the other party's coldness at all, and asked to himself.
"Mirrors, naturally, are used for reflection."
All that's left is this common-sense talk...... The goddess of the future, as she did when she appeared, came and went suddenly.
However...... Mirrors, naturally, are used for reflection.
"But there's still nothing." Zhao Nan shook his head.
The next moment the future goddess left, he had already taken out the mirror that the truth had left for him from his personal space.
- A mirror for you.
Still, there is no way to reflect your own appearance in the mirror.
Or ...... Can't just be my reflection? Zhao Nan had to mutter, and began to think about some other possibilities, he suddenly said, "Alice, come here." ”
The girl who was called soon appeared in front of Zhao Nan, and her eyes widened at this time under the influence of the projection, and she asked curiously: "Hey, haven't you always allowed me to enter this room?" ”
"I haven't lived here for long." Zhao Nan shrugged his shoulders and turned the mirror in front of him, "Sue me, can you see anything?" ”
The projection is light, and since it is light, it will appear on the mirror and then image...... It's a given.
Unexpectedly, Alice's face suddenly changed slightly, and she suddenly said angrily: "What do you mean!" Dead guys! Is it deliberate? ”
Zhao Nan was stunned for a moment, a little surprised by Alice's sudden discovery, his body instinctively turned over, and looked at the mirror...... Still, there was nothing to see.
Angry just because you can't reflect your own appearance? Shouldn't this be a curiosity? Zhao Nan had to frown and said, "Did you see something?" ”
"Ahh yes, I saw it all! See it clearly!! That's why I ask you what that means! Alice's affection suddenly became excited, "Do you really hate me so much?" I have to get this mirror out! If you don't like it, just say it! ”
"What the hell do you see?" The confusion in Zhao Nan's eyes was even stronger.
"What do you see...... Alice seemed to tremble with anger, "won't you see it yourself...... Shine a picture of that person in my likeness...... Am I a substitute? ”
"Generation...... Alice? ”
But the projection in front of her disappeared all at once, and Alice left...... At least there is no zài in this room.
Zhao Nan subconsciously reached out and touched the expression of this mirror, and said to himself: "Reflection...... Substitutes...... What exactly did Alice see. ”
The easiest way to know what she's seeing is to be in perfect tune at once.
"If it's really an enemy......" Zhao Nan shook his head.
There is no such if.
He sighed and walked out of the room. Because of the relationship between words and peace, at this time, he once again has the authority to astonish the battleship, and it is naturally very easy to know where Alice's projection appears now.
……
……
"Alice."
The voice sounded behind her, and Alice, who was sitting on a platform somewhere in the shell of the battleship with her knees crossed, did not intend to turn around, and said with an indignant face: "What are you still doing here?" ”
Zhao Nan sat down beside the other party and said, "Whether you believe it or not." There was something special about that mirror, and I couldn't see it at all. That's why I want you to take a look at it, whether this is the case. So what exactly do you see, if you don't say it, I really don't know. As for your misunderstanding, it doesn't mean that way at all. ”
This guy's emotional ...... It seems more fragile than expected. Sure enough, even if you don't say it, but in that state, you're always panicking all day long, so that your mind is extremely tense.
"You really can't see anything?" Alice asked belantly.
Zhao Nan put out the mirror and looked at the two of them at the same time, "If you don't believe it, you see that you can't see me from the mirror?" “
"Really...... No. Alice was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly became strange, and she blurted out: "But why do you look like ......?"
"What is it?"
"It's what Kaede looks like!"
……
……
Zhao Nan's consciousness suddenly emptied...... Since this statement, the world seems to have changed.
Pause...... Once again, the world came to a standstill...... He had experienced many world pauses. Stalls during system updates.
The world in black and white.
This time, however, the pause was unprecedentedly fast...... After a pause, a flash of blackness suddenly poured out from the far reaches of the sky.
Devouring what...... Endless, dark. R1152
