Before Lu Lie had time to think for long, there was a slight vibration from under the tree wall again. He lowered his head, and Li Yuan, who was carrying a basket of giant tree fruits on his back and was constantly climbing up, also happened to raise his vomit, and the two of them met their eyes.

It's already the third time.

Since he returned here through the Tower of Despair, he has encountered Li Yuan on the giant tree three times, which also means that he and Li Yuan have died twice in the abyss.

"Failed...... Really?"

Looking at Lu Lie's eyes, Li Yuan knew that this was a guy who had traveled back from time and space in the future.

He climbed to Lu Lie's side and fixed his position with a hook rope. Lu Lie began to tell him about what had happened in the previous plane, about the first journey of the giant tree, about being teleported to this plane by the Tower of Despair, about being killed in the abyss for the first time, and Li Yuan being killed in the second abyss......

......

After listening to Lu Lie's story, the sky at the top of the Giant Tree World was approaching dusk. Li Yuan still listened very carefully, probably because this was the second time he had told him about this past, and Lu Lie already had a rough idea of what details he would have questions about and what aspects he needed to focus on. So this time, Li Yuan didn't interrupt Lu Lie's narration too many times, nor did he ask too many questions.

When Lu Lie said that after Li Yuan died in the end, he was teleported back to this point in time, Li Yuan sighed softly. It can be seen that even he thinks that the current situation is not good.

"So, you still have a chance to roll back?"

"Yes. ”

"In other words, if we go down this time and then get killed, then we have one last chance left. ”

"Yes. ”

"It's not good. Li Yuan sighed.

Yes, the current situation is indeed very bad for even a fool. They hadn't even entered the bottom of the Yellow Springs yet, and they had already consumed two rollbacks just because they wanted to pass through the abyss.

So when they face the Huangquan Sea, which is even more dangerous than the abyss, what is the probability that they will be able to survive?

Facing the red light of the setting sun, Li Yuan quietly thought about countermeasures. He was silent for a while, and then thought about Lu Lie and raised a few doubts: "So, the second time, it was because I died after being possessed that the rollback mechanism was activated?"

"Hmm. Lu Lie still can't forget the helplessness and fear in his heart at the moment when he found that Li Yuan next to him was no longer Li Yuan.

"Are you sure that 'me' is dead the moment the rollback mechanism is activated?"

"Of course, it should be...... Right. Before the second rollback was launched, the only thing Lu Lie remembered was the sound of something being crushed in the darkness.

Li Yuan's eyes widened, and he asked Lu Lie again: "Are you really sure?"

"I ......"

Lu Lie began to hesitate.

He would have answered in the affirmative. But if you think about it carefully, if something is really crushed in the dark, it must be Li Yuan's voice before he died.

Li Yuan looked directly into Lu Lie's eyes, and did not skipped the question at all: "Although I just put forward a hypothesis...... If you think about it again, could it be that the rollback mechanism happened not because of my death, but because of the death of you or my lover in the Yellow Spring Sea? Or is it that the guy in the abyss deliberately made you hear the sound of crushing before killing you, and also deliberately imitated my voice to speak in your ear, so that you had the fact that 'the possessed Li Yuan committed suicide and caused the rollback'?"

Lu Lie began to stammer. I have to admit that the situation was very complicated from Lu Lie's first perspective at that time, and this possibility could not be ruled out. But what's the point of that monster in the abyss doing that?

yes, what's the point?

Li Yuan's voice softened slightly: "Take it easy, don't be so nervous." I'm just making a hypothesis...... The reason for this hypothesis - have you ever thought about such a possibility? The guy in the abyss doesn't have the ability to possess me, and it has never attached to my body. The reason why it does this is to create the illusion that it has the ability to possess before you die. ”

"And at that time, for some reason, I was already separated from you, and I didn't know what was happening in your direction. In this way, everything has room to operate. After that guy disguises himself as my voice and finishes the conversation with you, he makes a crushing sound and kills you. ”

Lu Lie: "......"

I have to admit that there is some truth in what Li Yuan analyzed, but on the other hand, it always feels weird, and there is something wrong with it.

But before Lu Lie could think about it, Li Yuan threw out another question: "Can you be sure when 'I' was possessed?"

"Huh?"

"That is, I was possessed when I was under the giant tree, was I possessed during the fierce battle with the zombies, or was I not possessed until I reached the intersection where you were killed for the first time?"

Lu Lie stopped talking again. To be honest, Li Yuan asked him this question, and he really had no way to answer it. It is said that at what exact point in time the other party was possessed? It is not quite like it at any point in time, but it is possible at any point in time.

Now that I think about it carefully, why did Li Yuan, who was in the abyss, lose his keen five senses, and every time the dragon corpse appeared, he couldn't predict it in advance?

It is likely that he was possessed at that time, so he lost his intuition.

When breaking through the zombie encirclement on the giant tree, Li Yuan didn't summon the time giant?

Maybe something was wrong with him at that point in time, so he didn't dare to summon the Time Giant, for fear that the Time Giant, who had been with his master day and night, would find out that he had become a heretic.

Speaking carefully, it seemed that when he asked Li Yuan why he didn't feel the existence of the dragon corpse, Li Yuan's answer style at that time had a subtle difference from his original character......

It's really possible at any point in time.

Li Yuan said slowly: "From the beginning. ”

Lu Lie was still immersed in his own reasoning, and did not react to what the other party meant: "Huh?"

"I mean," Li Yuan repeated what he said again, "after the second rollback, I'm afraid that from the beginning, the 'me' you saw at first sight has already been possessed. ”

......

There was a long silence between the two, and a flash of lightning struck in the sky.

"What do you mean...... The second time I pulled back, I didn't meet the real 'you' at all?"

"That 'Li Yuan' who followed me was false from beginning to end?"

"Based on the current situation, I'm afraid that's the case. ”
