As funny as it sounds, the reason I'm afraid of him is because he's becoming more and more like his father.
Normally he looked like he was trying to live an ordinary life, but there were times when he would reveal an inhuman, alien aura, like a god I had come into close contact with.
When I think of what my elder brother did to that child—shamelessly entrusting his wish for revenge on Yang Tanlang and the others to such a child, this kind of thing...
"Baby daddy?"
"Um?!"
The sudden call made me look up sharply.
"You look very unwell, do you want to rest for a while?"
"I am a little tired. I will take a rest for a while."
"There's a waterfall ahead. Do you want to go get some spring water?"
"Ah, if I want mountain spring water, Pojun, come with me."
"Wait, Mom, at least let me put my bag down first, don't pull me!"
I watched the mother and son walking away noisily, then sat down alone, took out a bottle of mineral water from my backpack filled with food, and poured it on my head.
The slightly warm water in this weather gave me the illusion of a cleansing of my soul, and made me think back to the time before my brother left.
……
"Take this."
"Is this... a key?"
I looked at the golden key with the dark green gem in my hand and didn't understand what he meant.
"It is a product modeled after the spirit key, and its purpose is to receive the power of the star god. I have prepared a solar summoner here. You can use this summoner and the key to summon. I have removed any unnecessary summoning words, but the price is that there will be a certain delay in activation. During my absence, you must keep this thing carefully and carry it with you."
"Is something going to happen?"
"Do you still remember...what happened when Pojun was just born?"
Like a key to open a door, memories that had been sealed for more than sixteen years were awakened.
"You mean... the one who claims to be——"
"Whether he is Po Jun who traveled back in time is debatable. However, judging from his appearance, he should be exactly the same as I remembered him in two years. If it is really him, after he has obtained the power to travel through time, theoretically, he will use it only after fully proving the reliability and necessity of this power. This is my conclusion based on my understanding of him. As for his purpose of traveling through time, according to the person involved, it was to ask a question and try to kill someone. I tentatively assume that he wanted to ask Ming Ming something, but there are doubts about trying to kill someone."
"Isn't he going to kill himself?"
"Even if he really wanted to kill himself, it was his past self. There are two issues that cannot be ignored here. First, why did he do this? Second, why did he still do this even though he knew it was impossible? In other words, the question should be, what methods can he use to make something that should be impossible possible?"
"Why not? He is very strong. If he wants to kill his newborn self, theoretically it should be a sure thing."
However, my rebuttal was sneered at.
"You know, that was the self when he was just born, which is the past. And if that person is really Yang Pojun, then it can only be the future. If a person's life is compared to a tree, then the past is the trunk and the future is the branches. The reduction of branches is at most a trimming of the tree's appearance, and it may even help it grow healthily. But once the trunk is cut off, the branches should disappear as well."
In other words, going back in time and killing yourself is a paradox that should be impossible.
"It's not like there aren't parallel universes, but I want you not to think about that possibility. The rule of the world is that consciousness determines everything. Even if a possibility does exist, as long as a special group uses their powerful consciousness to firmly lock onto one of them, it will have the nature of [the only truth]."
In other words, what you think is the truth. My brother wants me to help him lock on a possibility that he thinks is the most favorable.
"I can only try to think about the previous problems with the premise that the person is the future Po Jun. As for whether I will think of the possibility of a parallel world... I don't know if I can avoid it."
"That's enough. After all, my current situation does not allow me to use my abilities while they contain [impurities]."
"……What's the meaning?"
I paid close attention to the key words he said.
"Have you recovered your abilities?"
"Yes," he admitted openly, "Remember I used... I forgot what it was called from another world, anyway, I used that thing to seal a considerable part of Pojun's [divinity] - to be more precise, it was symbolized by the [concept of the sun], the last mystery on this planet. In the era after the Jedi Tiantong, the conditions for people to [awaken] their own power not only require their own excellent talents, but also require things that serve as guides or keys to open the [door] that was forged and closed by humans. I used that thing to reawaken my own power, and because I already had this power, even if it was [newly born], it was already [perfect]."
"...What will happen to my...nephew?"
"..."
He made a sound like a sigh.
"I originally thought that the biggest impact of the death of the second brother was that I no longer had any constraints, but I didn't expect that you would place your heart on a child who is not yet an adult. You are already in your thirties, but you still can't even face your own heart. Third brother, many times, people can't rely on others. There are some things that only you can do yourself, and you can't rely on others."
"……I don't."
"You know better than anyone whether it exists or not, so I won't repeat this kind of thing like an old mother. But I am your brother after all, so I will give this thing to you. Energy Key·Sin Star Lord——Of course there is no armor with this name, it is named only because of actual experience. The essence of this thing is to be a medium for communicating with the royal family's Violent Worm·Star Lord. You can use it to obtain the last mystery of the world that I have hidden. Whether it is for progress or for any other reason, you can use it if you want, anyway——"
"Even if an incompetent person got the switch to destroy the world, he wouldn't dare to press it, right?"
……
I touched my chest.
There is the medium key that guides the monster called Xingjun.
Once I use it, that's the moment I embark on a path from which there is no turning back.
But how could I possibly go back to that hell?
The hell that has terrified me for most of my life so far.
A burning pain came from my chest and I subconsciously unbuttoned my collar.
The golden key hanging around my neck had a dark green gem inlaid on it that flashed a little red light.
I subconsciously laid it flat, and extremely thin white lines stretched on it like a spider web. A red dot flashed on it at a distance from the intersection of a large number of white lines in the center, emitting heat that distorted the air.
I remained silent and tentatively turned around in a circle.
The red dot always points in a certain direction and is not affected by my turning.
What is this... a radar?
[It is... a radar that senses the power of elemental spirits.]
"who?"
[I'm here, I've always been here - why are you pretending not to see me? ]
I suddenly realized that the monster I had been avoiding had not disappeared.
It’s not that I can’t see it, it’s because—
Hands were raised up over the head.
I touched some kind of flesh, and it felt like a heartbeat.
The fear in my heart caused my body's strength to continue to drain away. The first thought that came to my mind was to run away immediately regardless of anything.
[Do you really want to do this? You will regret it. ]
The monster whispered.
"What... do you know?"
[A lot... a lot. For example, she went to the secret door in the basement, went to a certain Yang Wuqu laboratory, and took away something. For example, she is now pushing her child to a dead end. For example... today you are very likely to witness the death of your beloved nephew and your sister-in-law. ]
"What did you say?!"
[They are almost at the top of the mountain now. If they continue to dawdle, the future I'm talking about will be unchangeable. Or do you think you should believe Yang Wuqu's words and believe that they will be fine, and the world will help you protect them? ]
[Hahaha, stop kidding! If that was really possible, why would you go through all this? Or are you expecting your own tragedy?]
[The last line of defense that can protect me is always myself, the Yang Wei family... no, Yang Pojun. ]
When I came to my senses, the energy key was already inserted into my waist.
I can feel the strength returning.
From the trees in front of me, to the insects crawling in the ground under my feet, to the mountain I climbed today.
The clairvoyant's vision has returned and is even more powerful.
The chirping of insects, the footsteps of other climbers, the sound of the wind blowing through the mountains, the sound of thunder...the sounds of the world fell into my ears.
Naturally, the roar of thunder on the top of the mountain also reached my ears.
[Divine Foot Power]
In just a blink of an eye, I reached the top of the mountain and saw a figure that I will never forget.
A golden figure wearing light silver armor.
Subconsciously, I called out that name——
"Lu Cun."
……
"Failed again."
Yang Wuqu took out his gun in annoyance. The typewriter produced in large quantities in Chicago quickly completed the task issued by its owner.
【Qianxun】②⑤⑤⑤⑤⑨⑤③00
Two big guys with rabbit heads came forward and dragged away the body of the big guy with rabbit heads who was beaten to death by him.
"Energy crystals, specific personal unconsciousness stored in the human unconsciousness, cloning technology... Why the hell did it fail? Whether it's energy or technology, I should have reached the top..."
An ominous red light flashed in his dark eyes, and the muzzle of the gun in Yang Wuqu's hand would occasionally pause on the bodies of the various experimental subjects.
[Forget it, he refused to be resurrected. No matter how much you struggle, you can't resurrect him if he doesn't want to be resurrected.]
I tried to persuade Lao Liu, who had been bullying me since Yang Lu Cun died. I didn't ask him to let me go, but at least he should stop torturing a weak, pitiful and helpless tyrant like me.
"Shut up! You beast! You are useless. You can't even preserve the consciousness of the host. What's the point of me keeping you around!"
[I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. Can you please stop being unreasonable?]
"Unreasonable?"
Yang Wuqu was so angry that he laughed, as if he was about to do something, but stopped immediately.
"…The Star Lord has been summoned."
[Oh, isn't this good? Didn't you say that if your brother wants to face himself, he must use the power of the Star Lord to make him face his own truth? ]
"That doesn't mean he's going to get over it. After all, his mental state was so bad when I went abroad that I couldn't imagine what he had to go through to realize it."
【Then you won’t go? 】
"If I can revive the second brother, many things can be postponed to the future. If not, his current problems are not something I can solve. From the beginning, I was the one who was completely rejected."
He had no intention of stopping.
Ever since I met him, this man has been synonymous with doing things his own way and not listening to others. Apart from the fact that Yang Lu Cun defeated him and made him decide to lie low, I have never seen this man do anything that is not to his liking.
No, maybe there is one more thing...
【296】Love is the strongest and weakest curse (Part )
"It's a little too cool here at the waterfall. It makes me feel cold."
"It'll get hot soon enough."
I didn’t think much about what my mother meant, because she must have meant that it wouldn’t be so cold once we left the waterfall.
"Want to hear a story?"
"You speak and I listen."
"This is a story about a group of brothers who cursed their own blood..."
She began to tell a story that seemed very déjà vu to me.
"There were three brothers, they came from an ancient family."
"This family has been responsible for severing myths for generations."
"By the time of their generation, everything had come to an end."
"For some reason, the eldest of the three brothers despised the so-called family responsibilities, the second brother was not interested in family responsibilities and had no intention of interfering, and the third brother fell into lifelong misfortune because of this matter."
"Later, the second son married and had children. In order to avenge the ancestors, the eldest son tried to use the second son's children and his own nephews and nieces to bring down the gods, hoping to completely insult the long-standing family responsibilities."
"Because... maybe it was unexpected, or maybe it was expected, the daughter of the twins died along with a certain god, but the boy survived."
