Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

"If this world didn't have yina, after 003 brought yina and micro-particles there, they would probably disperse very quickly, and micro-particles could only monitor high-frequency fluctuations."

"Logically, the monitoring should have been disconnected."

"But the monitoring was not cut off, which can only mean one thing: there is a high concentration of acetylene source on Earth."

"After months of tireless exploration and research, I finally discovered and made contact with this source of acetylene."

“We, no, your biological father through genes—”

"Nanyang Palace".

Luo Bai froze, his pupils contracted sharply, his heart pounded, and he stared intently at the screen, muttering to himself, "Nanyang Palace..."

Chapter 717 Background

With a ding, the screen interface suddenly changed.

Researcher Bai is talking to an old man on the screen while the video is being played.

"You can just relay it for me..." The old man's voice on the screen sounded awkward.

Upon hearing this voice, Luo Bai's pupils dilated sharply, and his breathing became rapid.

That voice, that tone, it's definitely the old man.

Ten years later, he heard that voice again, but he never expected it to be in this kind of scene.

The researcher said, "He might not believe me if I relay it, so just tell me directly and I'll record it and forward it to him."

What exactly happened that day?

The old man pondered for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "October 10th, 204, I will probably remember this day forever."

"It was an ordinary day, without any signs of disaster."

"No earthquakes, no volcanic eruptions, no tsunamis, and no wild beasts stirring—just an ordinary day."

"At that time, I was having a strategic meeting with several generals."

"I just blinked..." His voice suddenly became rapid, filled with deep disbelief.

"Time exploded, leaping forward a hundred years!"

"In the conference room, everyone except General Lin and me had turned into skeletons..."

"The emergency food on the table had turned into powder, and the canned food had turned into a lump of indescribable black substance that smelled foul."

"Flowers, grass, trees, and low-level wild beasts were all wiped out."

"Only organisms with a remaining lifespan of more than one hundred years can survive this explosion, but without the bottom-level organisms, the ecosystem has already collapsed."

"We have no food."

"What's even more terrifying is that the survivors couldn't accept this mutation, and they all went insane."

"General Lin has gone mad too..."

"Just ten years later, only two humans were still alive."

"Me and Luo Zhixi."

"Ah—" The old man sighed deeply, as if remembering something.

"It's not that this woman is so powerful, it's just that I didn't die."

“As long as I live, she will live.”

"I will not breathe my last as long as she does."

"I'm at odds with her."

"We outlasted everyone else, but the two of us are still alive."

"My ill-fated relationship with her is too complicated to explain in a day or two; it's all about hatred."

"But humanity is going to become extinct."

"We are unwilling to see civilization perish, so we were forced to launch the abandoned numbered citizen program to maintain the reproduction of humankind through industrial means."

"Soon, my first child with her was born."

"The first baby born after the Divine Explosion. When I saw that child, I felt like I had rediscovered the meaning of life."

"But--"

"The child has a disability, a congenital lack of pain sensation."

Upon hearing this, Luo Bai and researcher Bai Chenchen lowered their eyes.

The old man continued speaking, his voice tinged with a sense of vicissitude.

"Luo Zhixi said she wanted to give up the child. Laboratory resources are scarce, and there is no need to waste them on a child with defects."

"What a vicious woman! How could she bear to say such things to such a lovely child?"

"We're always like this, we argue very easily."

"Following that, we produced another batch of babies, all of whom were healthy and had normal affinity."

Why was it that the first child had a defect?

“I was very unwilling and didn’t understand. I kept it a secret from Luo Zhixi and cloned that child a hundred times.”

"result--"

"Out of a hundred, one is a girl due to a genetic mutation; all of them are defective and all are stillborn."

"It's like... some kind of curse..."

"A stillborn baby?" Researcher Bai frowned upon hearing this and interrupted, "And then what happened?"

"Later, I had another argument with Luo Zhixi." The old man gave a bitter smile, then his voice suddenly changed, "But just then!"

"A violent earthquake suddenly struck the laboratory!"

"I saw a shockwave, and I quickly picked up the first baby..."

"When I regained consciousness, I found myself in this new world."

"After losing the supply of acetylene, my body aged rapidly, and I only have a few years left."

"You know the rest."

Luo Bai stood aside listening, his emotions fluctuating wildly like a rollercoaster.

With a ding, the central screen switched back to the interface where researcher Bai narrated his own story.

“This is your background,” he said.

"The first baby born after the Great Explosion of Divine Will."

"We are your clones, all of us are stillborn babies."

"Later investigations revealed that when we came back to life, you on Earth were experiencing extreme emotions or illness."

"Luo Zhixi may have placed those one hundred dead infants somewhere."

"Whenever you experience physical or mental abnormalities, and fragments of your soul spill out, a batch of dead infants come back to life."

"This is just my guess."

"But if you experience a soul-swapping phenomenon when summoning [Crystal Machine], [Cursed Eye], [Sky Striker], or [Cyber ​​Dragon], and summoning other cards has no effect, then my guess is correct."

"We are a part of your soul."

"Most of us didn't survive, like Xiao Bai, who had no stress response to danger and died young."

"The small number who survive to adulthood are also in poor mental condition."

"Like Bai Baiqiu, Bai Chen, and me."

"According to my statistics, the only surviving 'white' are me and that genetically mutated baby girl."

“She looks a bit like us, but you can tell the difference. She’s a writer, a pretty and quiet girl.”

Pen name: Bai Jian'an.

"She put in a lot of effort when promoting dueling in the early days."

“I gave her ten micro-monitoring screens, but not a printing machine. She can only watch, not print the blasphemous cards.”

"However, since you're watching this video, it's probably been two or three hundred years, maybe even the eleventh century."

"She's probably gone too, she's gone."

"This is you, and this is our origin story."

The sound on the screen gradually stopped, and instead of immediately switching to the [World Truth] channel, Luo Bai was given some time to process the information.

Luo Bai felt as if he had heard a shocking story and was unable to recover for a long time.

The first baby born after the Great Explosion of Divine Will—that name sounds quite meaningful.

"Bai Jian'an..."

His eyes darted around as he racked his brain, confirming that he had never heard of this name before.

These hundred clones gave him a feeling of survival in a desperate situation.

It's amazing that a girl survived to the final round; she must have some kind of genetic mutation, she's incredibly resilient.

Luo Bai let out a long breath, lightly pressed the controller, and clicked on the screen to view the "Truth of the World".

The researcher Bai on the screen suddenly became serious and tense.

He slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with complex emotions, as if bearing the weight of the entire world. His lips trembled, each word seeming to carry a thousand pounds: "The truth of the world is..."

"us--"

"Living in a cage."

Chapter 718 The Truth (The End)

"A cage?" A shadow fell over Luo Bai's forehead.
