This time I chose Paladin.

Chapter 323 "Doesn't that prove we did the right thing again?"

However, the result made Nie Weiyang's heart sink.

--No.

It's not that I don't have enough permissions, it's that I don't have any.

Within the human mind of Homo sapiens float fragments of the souls of almost everyone who has perished since its inception. Even the most insignificant individual, even those whose souls dissipated without entering the human mind's depths, will leave ripples in the memories of others. This information usually lies dormant deep within, but whenever it is searched, at least a vague phantom will emerge…

But regarding that girl, the response from the mind was nothingness, as if she had never existed in the long history of Homo sapiens on Earth.

There are only three possibilities:
I. She existed before the birth of the heart.

But that's impossible, because if that were the case, how could no one remember her amidst the countless heroes and talents who have come and gone throughout this long history?

Second, she is involved in a secret of unimaginable importance, one that even the minds of Homo sapiens cannot record or must be cut into. This may involve some taboos of pre-civilizations.

That's possible, but again... how could no one possibly have any memory of her? Did those people prepare before they died and destroy their souls in advance?

III. ...She...has not yet been born.

This is the most basic logical guess: there are no records of the past? Because she doesn't come from the past, but from the future. A soul from another time, for some reason, its fragments of information or soul projections have penetrated time and been captured by him, the administrator of the sea of ​​subconsciousness.

But this possibility... is too outrageous.

……

...No, if the planetary barrier can revert matter, what else is so outrageous?

If this universe operates on fundamental laws, then the energy required to revert this planet would be so enormous that it would blow up the universe.

In short, regardless of the possibility, it means that Nie Weiyang is caught in a vortex that is far deeper than he previously knew.

That's really good news.

Nie Weiyang withdrew from the Sea of ​​Mind, opened his eyes, and the golden dawn pierced through the clouds, scattering across the grassland.

There was no warmth in his eyes, only icy coldness.

"Boss, what's wrong?" Russell keenly sensed the change in his aura and asked instinctively.

Nie Weiyang shook his head without explaining, and simply stood up and deftly stepped onto the lucky draw ticket.

"It's nothing." He started the engine, his voice calm. "The road is still long. Let's go, to Mount Main Message."

"I have a feeling that there are more surprises waiting for us there."

The motorcycle roared again, carrying him toward the road ahead where the morning light and shadow intertwined.

Bai Yu and Russell exchanged a glance, both seeing seriousness in each other's eyes. They then spurred the lions to follow closely.

After leaving the radio interference zone, the three hurried southwest. The closer they got to the Main Signal Mountain area, the more eerie the surrounding environment became.

The grassland's vitality abruptly ceased at some invisible boundary. The land gradually became barren, rocks were exposed, vegetation sparse, and a faint, metallic odor permeated the air. Even more striking were the scattered clusters of caligan crystals appearing in the exposed rock layers, shimmering with a ghostly blue light, like scars on the earth.

“These crystals… seem to be increasing.” Russell frowned, looking around warily. “And they all seem to be growing out of the ground, along the same line.”

Nie Weiyang nodded silently. He could clearly feel the unique static force field emanating from these crystals, like countless invisible spider webs, layer upon layer, enveloping this area.

Last week, he only knew the location of Mount Main, but he had never been there himself. After all, by the time he gained this ability, the world had been reshaped, and people of any status couldn't freely enter or leave someone else's homeland; otherwise, they would be suspected of causing trouble. Furthermore, the intelligence regarding Mount Main didn't mention the Kaligan Crystals, and he was certain this wasn't the intelligence network's fault—the Return of the Order should have already mined all the Kaligan Crystals before the intelligence network was established.

'Sizzle—sizzle…'

[Playing music player prohibited] Suddenly, a subtle noise erupted. The noise wasn't from the song playing; it was some kind of external interference forcibly cutting in, making his head throb. But he couldn't just take off his headphones, otherwise, what if the Glory Space Station suddenly had something to say…

[…Beware… Do not… advance…]

Nie Weiyang: “…”

...It really does have something to say!

It seems that the Kaligan Crystal and related interference have indeed reduced the communication difficulties of the Glory Space Station. Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise. As for why it doesn't communicate directly with Administrator Number Two... Nie Weiyang doesn't know either.

These days, Glory Space Station has been behaving as if the microphone is broken and only the broadcasting system is usable, only broadcasting and not giving speeches.

"What does this mean?" In the mind of the intelligent being, the part of him that hadn't retreated was awakened. Administrator Number Two looked up through the fog: "Danger ahead, do not proceed?"

The Glory Space Station still seemed unable to maintain a stable audio editing call, but a rather upbeat piece of music started playing in Nie Weiyang's earpiece: [...My dear, will you agree? I will give you everything you want, I will do it all, all I need is your agreement, until you agree...]

This is an English song.

Nie Weiyang's brow twitched. After a moment of contemplation, Administrator Number Two asked, "What's the name of its song?"

【YES!】 The audio in the headphones screamed loudly; the female voice seemed to be taken from a horror movie, crying and pleading: 【I confess! Please don't do this…】

Nie Weiyang: "…………"

"You can try a less thrilling approach," said Administrator Number Two. "And what's ahead?"

Lorelei
When my ship passes by you
Although you promised to show me the way
But it led me astray...

"Lorelei... a siren who lures people off course with her song?" Nie Weiyang was slightly taken aback. Administrator Number Two remarked, "Now you're the one playing the song."

When the warnings of wise men have become worthless

I thus became a person who begged for the truth…

"You seem to be accusing me of ignoring warnings." Nie Weiyang shrugged slightly. "This song is good."

When the warnings of wise men have become utterly worthless...

"Stop fooling around. I need to know what the Returning Sect and the Void-Crossing Demon are up to. These guys have been quiet for so long, they must be up to something." Nie Weiyang said solemnly. The Second Administrator said, "Given the Void-Crossing Demon's mental state, I suspect that his Heart Sea is being coveted... I must investigate the relevant issues."

When the warnings of wise men have become utterly worthless...

“You’re issuing such a warning…” Nie Weiyang’s expression was serious. Administrator Number Two asked, “There are no shelters in the main mountain, is that right?”

[YES! I admit it! Please...]

"I understand." Nie Weiyang nodded slightly and continued driving.

The Walkman's voice suddenly amplified: [When the wise man's warning...]

Nie Weiyang took off his headphones and threw them into his backpack.

“Well, this might be a tough battle,” said Administrator Number Two. Nie Weiyang echoed this, but behind his mask, he smiled: “It’s extremely dangerous ahead. We might die, or we might catch the enemy before they can hide. Are you scared?”

Bai Yu shook his head without saying a word.

"Huh?" Russell's face lit up again. "Doesn't that prove we did the right thing again?"
