From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 648 Kelly: I gave birth to you using my memories, I don't care, I'm going to be a mother!

"Because..."

Chen Hong stood outside the Black Whale Coral Reef, looked back at the Black Whale ship, which was only half-exposed on the seabed, and smiled slightly:

"Because I've seen it."

Chen Hong reached out and folded off a piece of coral that had grown on the Black Whale ship. He then gently shook it in the seawater, and the surface of the coral began to turn into dust. In the end, an exquisite black coral mask appeared in Chen Hong's hand.

"Why are you here? And why isn't my brother surprised at all by your presence?" Finally emerging from the dark, sunken ship, Kelly greedily inhaled the sweet seawater filled with warm sunlight, then looked at the black-clad boy who had covered his face with a coral mask.

"I thought you didn't care at all?"

"It's not what you think. I just didn't want to disturb some old friends." Under the sunlit sea, Chen Hong turned back and shook his head slightly at the mermaid Kelly, then rubbed the head of little Kevin, who seemed not to hear their conversation. "I modified this little guy's memories a bit. I added an omnipotent older brother to his memories, which forms a stark contrast to you, his omnipotent older sister. Because there's a reference point, he's directly linked to you. When he thinks of you, he'll think of me, and when he sees me, he'll think of you. Although it's in the form of a 'useless older sister'."

Chen Hong briefly explained the principle to Kelly. Little Kevin's memories hadn't changed much. Hong Jun's existence was based on Little Kevin's memories of Kelly and was bound to her. Moreover, creating this character was very simple; all you had to do was adjust the various parameters to be the opposite of 'Kelly's'. Thus, the memories of an omnipotent older brother appeared.

"You!" The expected anger didn't materialize. Looking at the villain who had arbitrarily altered her brother's memories, Kelly hesitated, then said, "Could you also make me omnipotent?"

Goodness! They really are siblings.

"Hehe." Chen Hong's lips curled up slightly, but he still shook his head: "Actually, this is quite good. From now on, it will be Kevin protecting you. Kevin is studying hard now because you, his older sister, are so useless. He has too many hopes placed on him, so he can only grow up quickly."

Chen Hong patted Kevin's head and then smiled, "Go play, remember to come home later, your sister and I need to talk alone."

Although speaking to him face-to-face would block out Kevin, this method was somewhat impolite, so Chen Hong smiled and told Kevin to go play by himself.

"Let me tell you about my current state." After Kevin excitedly swam away and disappeared in a flash, Chen Hong led the puzzled Kelly to the surface and swam to the shore. "Come walk with me on the shore, if there's still a coastline."

"What time is it now?" Chen Hong asked Kelly as they reached the sea.

Kelly was somewhat surprised: "Aren't you able to read memories? Why are you asking me?"

"Power isn't something to be used recklessly. If you read everything you see, life will lose its drive to explore the unknown, and you'll be held hostage by power, becoming a kind of rule or order." Chen Hong said something Kelly didn't understand, but to stop Chen Hong from continuing to ramble, Kelly had no choice but to reply:

"The year 47 of the Divine Revelation Calendar, hmm. After that major event, the whole world unified the calendar, but the two sides called it differently. In Douluo Continent, it's called the Day of Divine Revelation or the Day of Divine Descent, while on the other side of the ocean, it's called the Day of Divine Fall, the year 47 of the Divine Fall. A very aggressive name." Kelly followed behind Chen Hong, constantly complaining to him.

However, Kelly is right. The year 47 of Godfall. Just hearing this calendar name every year feels jarring, as if it's constantly reminding us of something.

"Hmm, I didn't expect to be disturbed for so long unintentionally." The black eyes under the black coral mask flickered slightly, and then Chen Hong shook his head and laughed, "Poseidon probably never dreamed that he almost did something he had always dreamed of doing without even realizing it."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Kelly was taken aback upon hearing this!

Poseidon. Isn't that the name of the noble sea god?

How dare you, Chen Hong! You dare address the Sea God by his given name! What is your punishment?

Hmm. Kelly only dared to think about it in her mind. The danger level of the person in front of her might not be any less than that of the Sea God!

In a sea area where only scattered building ruins remained, two heads emerged from the water, one after the other, startling some seabirds resting on stone pillars.

Chen Hong climbed to the top of a giant rock protruding from the sea and looked around at the broken islands where only seabirds flew. On these rocks or metal objects protruding from the sea, there were some words and symbols from time to time. It was unclear whether they were there before or were carved on by other creatures later.

This is the former most prosperous port city on Douluo Star, the Sea Soul City-State.

"This all starts with why I'm here." With a gentle sea breeze blowing, Chen Hong gazed at the distant blue sea and whispered to Kelly, whose body was still half-submerged in the seawater beneath the boulder, "My existence is quite special, but you can understand it simply: Little Kevin was able to see me because he was lucky enough to obtain a Sage's Ring that I had signed years ago."

Although the God of Wisdom has "fallen," the Sage's Ring continues to spread throughout the world. The ocean-themed flower crowns worn by Kelly and Kevin of the Mermaid Clan are all Sage's Rings, only with slight modifications to their appearance.

"Generally speaking, the Philosopher's Rings I've signed aren't circulated, so Poseidon did something unnecessary."

"..." Upon hearing this, Kelly, whose body was half submerged in the sea, felt a slight tremor in her heart. She almost thought that she was about to be buried. Her brother's Philosopher's Ring was naturally not obtained through legitimate channels, but through treasure hunting.

The two sides of the ocean are now almost completely sealed off. All the Sage's Rings on Douluo Continent are from fifty years ago, and Kevin's Sage's Ring was collected from the sunken Black Whale ship.

"The Philosopher's Ring affects the mind, and Kevin's Philosopher's Ring has my mark on it. You can understand it as my mark appearing in Kevin's mind, which is why he can see 'me', but of course, he can only see it."

"Only you, mermaid princess, Tiss Kelly, with whom we shared memories, can not only see me, but also touch me with your memories."

Chen Hong lowered his head and smiled at the mermaid girl: "So, you can also understand it as me being resurrected from your memories."

Unexpectedly, the mermaid girl suddenly seemed to have lost her mind and asked curiously, "Then, does that mean I gave birth to you?"

The black-clad boy's smile widened even further. Good heavens, was this revenge? He just criticized her for having a child out of wedlock, and now... he's suddenly radiating maternal instincts?

"Of course not. I merely borrowed your memories as an anchor to break free from the vast void."

"However, if you really want to be a mother..."

"I can give you little Kevin."
