this infinite world

Chapter 1152 Have we... met somewhere before?
——May your future be free.

The last words Yang Yun said were not simply a blessing, but a statement of a fact... or in other words, a reward for Haotian's "work" for Chu Xuan during this period of time.

Today, Yang Yun's strength has become incredibly strong. He can compete with primary saints and even surpass them. The so-called assassin family is nothing but a clown who can be destroyed with a flip of the hand.

But when he just returned from the world of Chinese Paladin, even Yang Yun himself did not expect that he could improve so fast… It only took one return to go from the fourth-order intermediate to the fourth-order advanced, and from fighting against the immortals together with Zheng Zha, where he had to die more than a thousand times, to the combat power of a saint, he only went through one Watcher in between - as a result, naturally, the previous arrangement of contacting Haotian through Chu Xuan to collect intelligence about the assassin family became useless.

However, considering that Haotian had made no contributions but had worked hard, Yang Yun, after consulting him, used the fragments of the List of Conferred Gods that Chu Xuan had given him in advance as an intermediary to completely sever the invisible and intangible cause and effect line on Haotian, as well as the backup plan that Adam had left on him long ago, making it so that the "Ancestor of Immortals" of the former Immortal Thieves Group, now the "Magic Thief Oblivionis", would no longer have anything to do with the main god space.

Yang Yun didn't need to spend too much effort on Haotian's matter. After all, with his current strength, it was not difficult to "break the cause and effect" last time. But this matter was a task he had to complete when he returned to the real world this time - after all, whether it was the last reincarnation or the original world line, Haotian had an inseparable connection with the main god space.

Therefore, Yang Yun asked him whether he wanted to go to the main god space. If Haotian replied in agreement, Yang Yun would not hesitate to give him a place to join the Zhongzhou team. After all, Luo Yinglong had already joined the Zhongzhou team several games in advance. Then, how could Haotian, who had joined the Zhongzhou team in the original world line in the Lord of the Rings and was later copied into the Demon Team and became a survivor after the final battle, and even had a lot of roles in "Infinite Future", not be able to join?
But now it seems that Haotian is a lazy guy who goes with the flow. Now that Adam, who was a check on him, died at the hands of Chu Xuan, he naturally lacks the reason to take the initiative to throw himself into danger, and chooses to be a "prankster"... Perhaps, this is the reason why he has the strength of the fourth level even though he has never entered the main god space, and is only one step away from the fourth level intermediate.

"Everyone has their own aspirations...there's no need to force it."

Yang Yun smiled and shook his head, his gaze finally relaxed, and he lay on the bench without any image, moving away from Haotian like a dried salted fish, and glanced at the fragment of the List of the Gods that Chu Xuan had given him before leaving.

——Then it’s the next person’s turn.

……

——Fifteen-year-old Liu Yu has been in a very bad mood recently.

If you ask why, it is because his parents divorced when he was very young. Although his father is a wealthy man, he is often not at home. When he calls, he always sounds impatient. He doesn't care about him except for giving him enough pocket money... In addition, the boy's character is a bit cowardly, so he unfortunately suffered from bullying in school.

Liu Yu could still bear the bullying for now. But unexpectedly, since a while ago, this teenager would have some strange dreams from time to time. In the dream, he was an ordinary person with no power, but he somehow entered Elm Street and had to face Freddy's pursuit; or he stepped into Silent Hill and faced the terrifying Triangle Head and the nurse... So when he woke up in the morning, he always had a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

What’s even more frustrating is that during this period, Liu Yu’s father never came home once, and he didn’t even call him to show his concern. Even if Liu Yu took the initiative to summon up the courage to call him, he would get an impatient “I know” and some pocket money… — Oh, I don’t know what’s wrong with me recently…

Liu Yu thought so as he walked in the park with his schoolbag on his back even though it was class time. He was considered to be an excellent student in school, but today he did something rebellious that he never dared to think of in the past...pretending to be sick and skipping class.

Of course, it's not really skipping classes. Liu Yu had been so absent-minded these past few days that the teachers at school naturally noticed his condition. After he called the teacher to ask for leave, the teacher didn't even bother to ask his parents, and readily agreed to his request for leave... and then, the current situation came about.

Thinking that it was the teacher who noticed his abnormality before his parents, and that he might be bullied and excluded again after returning to school, Liu Yu, who was only fifteen years old at the time, felt a sense of depression in his chest, which lasted for a long time. But when he saw the Yu-Gi-Oh card box in his hand and the precious set of cards that he had collected with great difficulty, he finally felt a little comforted.

During his daily life alone, Liu Yu naturally fell in love with animation, and his favorite work was "Yu-Gi-Oh". He envied Yugi Muto, who had a similar personality to him but a ghost who looked exactly like him. For this reason, he even spent his pocket money to collect a set of three mythical cards from the animation, and spontaneously found a card store to play cards with those like him...

...But as we all know, new players who use the original decks in the animation with the intention of "soul" or "bonds" often get stuck in real life and get ruthlessly beaten by veterans. So Liu Yu, a newbie, can basically be described as "addicted to being a loser", with a pitiful win rate of only 20% to 30%...Even so, he never gets tired of it.

——If I can summon those monsters, even Freddy or Alessa won’t be my opponent...

Thinking of the nightmare that had troubled him for a long time, and looking at the deck that had accompanied him for a long time, Liu Yu felt an inexplicable impulse in his heart. At this moment, he felt that he had transformed into those powerful duelists in the animation, who had their own visions when drawing cards, as if every time they drew a card, they were opening up a world. He couldn't help but imitate the characters in the animation and said, "My turn, draw a card - ah!"

Perhaps this is the result of excessive happiness and sorrow. Liu Yu was so immersed in his own world that he didn't see the person in front of him and just bumped into him. The opponent's body was so solid that Liu Yu's thin body was affected by the reaction force and sat on the ground. The cards in his hand were scattered all over the place, as if he had lost a dark duel...

"Yes, sorry!"

Knowing that he had caused trouble, Liu Yu ignored the pain in his body and quickly got up, subconsciously apologizing to the person he bumped into. But when he saw the other person's face, an inexplicable emotion began to throb in his heart, causing the young man to blurt out -
