Bai E, holding the baseball bat in his hand, couldn't help but glance at Jiang Jiu again.
It wasn't for any other reason than that of the three people present, only this person chose to retreat the moment he made his move.
He showed no fear, nor was he particularly alert; his casual demeanor made it seem as if he already knew what was going to happen, so he didn't even bother to put up a fight.
Dan Heng stood in front of Xing, watching Bai E warily.
Xing was looking at his baseball bat, hesitant to speak. Bai E glanced down at the weapon in his hand, paused for a moment, and then put the baseball bat down.
"I apologize, the situation was urgent, and I apologize for any offense caused."
Dan Heng remained vigilant, his gaze never leaving Bai E.
Bai E didn't care about Dan Heng's reaction. He glanced around and then looked back at Jiang Jiu.
His blue eyes held a scrutinizing gaze, along with a curiosity he himself couldn't quite explain.
"You look familiar, buddy."
Dan Heng paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Jiang Jiu. Xing also turned her head and blinked.
Jiang Jiu stood there, gazing at Bai E in silence for a while.
......look familiar?
He stared at it for a long time, so long that Danheng began to feel that something was amiss.
Then Jiang Jiu smiled, a very light, somewhat helpless smile.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Dan Heng and Xing exchanged a glance, the latter scratching his head, completely baffled.
Bai E was also stunned for a moment. He looked at Jiang Jiu, a hint of confusion flashing in his blue eyes.
Have we... met before?
Jiang Jiu did not answer immediately. He just looked at Bai E for two more seconds and then calmly denied the question.
"No, I've mistaken you for someone else."
Chapter 240, what a title!
Adhering to the philosophy of "doing less, making fewer mistakes; being lazy, making no mistakes," Jiang Jiu barely participated in the subsequent exchange.
From Bai Er's fruitless questioning to Dan Heng and Xing explaining the reasons for disarming, to Ti Bao's appearance and some friendly exchanges, and then to giving some basic introductions to Onfaros.
Throughout the entire process, Jiang Jiu maintained a completely indifferent attitude.
After the group steered the conversation toward him for the third time and investigated the subtle hints of danger he might be facing, Jiang Jiu finally gave a slight response.
“Honestly, if I really wanted to, none of the people here would have survived,” he paused for two seconds, his gaze sweeping vaguely in a direction not far away, “Can’t Nicardoli prove all this?”
Xing silently raised her hand: "...I can prove that."
Dan Heng nodded slightly.
Tibo and Bai'er exchanged a glance, and Tibo quickly explained, "*We* didn't mean that, *we* just…"
"unimportant."
Jiang Jiu said directly, "I don't care. What you think is your business and has nothing to do with me."
Jiang Jiu didn't care how wary the Golden Descendants would be of him after saying that, since he wouldn't be staying here for long anyway.
As for whether this will make them wary of Danheng and Xing?
In response, Jiang Jiu could only say that Huang Jinyi had never fully believed it from the beginning.
It took some time to gradually accept each other, so it doesn't really matter.
Tibo was in a bit of a dilemma.
Should we bring these powerful, unidentified guests from beyond the heavens into Ohm?
wrong......
"How do you know the name of the Titan of Strife... no, what about Nicardoly?"
Tibo: "......"
That would be disastrous. A one-sided battle against Titans would mean they'd be at least demigod level, or even higher. That would be very difficult.
Although he didn't show any malice, he wasn't kind at all either...
Jiang Jiu thought about it and realized that following along would be quite troublesome, so he started thinking of reasons to leave.
Tibo and Bai'er both knew the importance of things, and when they pointed out that the situation did not meet their expectations, they did not linger on the topic for long.
The conversation eventually turned to the holy city of Ohma.
After talking for what seemed like an eternity, the group finally reached a consensus and decided to head to Ohma first.
Dan Heng and Xing took a few steps, and seeing that Jiang Jiu hadn't followed, they called out, "Jiang Jiu, aren't you coming along?"
Jiang Jiu thought for a moment, then shook his head: "You guys go ahead. I might communicate with you in other ways later. Communication will be back to normal soon."
Xing asked, puzzled, "So you're not coming with us?"
Jiang Jiu hummed in agreement, took a few steps in the opposite direction, and then disappeared from the spot.
Xing blinked and turned to look at Dan Heng: "You... just left?"
Dan Heng sighed helplessly: "He is the envoy, and we probably can't stop him here. If communications are restored, we should be able to contact everyone again soon."
......
When Jiang Jiu reappeared, he was in Ohm.
Although I don't know exactly where I am, as long as I'm in this place, that's fine.
After lowering the anchor point and connecting the StarNet to Onfaros, he said softly, "Black Tower, all connected."
The little black tower doll sat on his shoulder, glanced at the surroundings, and nodded: "Then come out. I intercepted your body beforehand, so go straight back to the space station."
"Wait a mininute."
Although Jiang Jiu felt that no matter what happened in the middle, the final outcome would probably not deviate too much, he still needed to confirm it a little.
The moment Jiang Jiu made his decision, time was paused.
"System, redeem 'The End of a Choice'."
"Exchange successful. Please make your decision."
Option 1: Stay and accompany the Trail Blazers on their journey to Onphalos.
Option Two: Leave directly for the space station, leaving the pioneers to fend for themselves.
"Option two: see where the Trail Blazers' future lies in Onfarth."
"Host selection complete, destiny's choice fulfilled, future to be simulated."
"Due to your interference, the Golden Descendants initially harbored doubts about Xing and Danheng, but after several encounters, Jinzhi gave an affirmative answer."
"They gained a basic understanding of the situation here. With communications restored, and after a brief discussion with Himeko and Uncle Yang, Hoshi and Danheng decided to stay and help the people here."
"The Titans of Strife, the Trials of the White Calamity—everything seemed normal until, upon arriving at the Tree Garden, the Pioneer's contact with the Butterfly unexpectedly triggered the first layer of precautions you had placed on her. This precaution nearly sent the Firewalker to her death prematurely."
Jiang Jiu: "..."
Can the Butterfly's mechanism handle extraterrestrial visitors? How was its protection mechanism activated?
Logically, that shouldn't be the case...
Forget it, it doesn't matter.
The sparks were returned one by one. Although the Titan of Time refused any communication, the Pioneers ultimately accepted the Titan of Time's trial. Due to some uncontrollable factor, the trial of the Titan of Death was postponed indefinitely.
『......』
Jiang Jiu stopped the simulation; there was no need to watch it anymore.
Although the processes are slightly different, the overall direction remains the same.
acceptable.
Next, it should access Onfaros from the outside, and then enter a loop. There are too many variables, so I don't want to look at them and there's no need to.
After all, it has to be changed no matter what.
Compared to dealing with Iron Tomb from within Onfaros, Jiang Jiu has more ways to handle this guy from the outside.
The only question is whether the predetermined ending of the erudite monk can be changed.
"All right."
The little black tower doll only noticed that Jiang Jiu paused for half a second between his two sentences, but she didn't pay much attention to it.
"Then come back."
"Okay."
Jiang Jiu turned his head to look in one direction: "Did you hear me? Open the door for me."
Laigushi: "..."
Lai Gushi nodded slightly, somewhat helplessly.
"As you wish, Your Excellency, I hope we will not meet again in Onphalus."
"I don't want to see you unless you cause trouble."
As Jiang Jiu spoke, the scene before him began to distort briefly. He did not resist and allowed the administrator to kick him out of Onfaros for the first time.
When I opened my eyes again, I was probably in the Black Tower's laboratory.
He sat up, greeted King Screwgoom of Screw Star, and then turned to look at the Black Tower: "Where are Xinghe and Danheng?"
"They found a room next door to hang the nutrient solution."
Black Tower leaned against the lab bench and tilted his head to indicate that he should look at the data on the screen.
"You're more familiar with it, why don't you go?"
"can."
