Victor in a white robe stared at Ryan, with countless crystals in his eyes changing and reorganizing.

"You are darkness...but not darkness."

Victor in the white robe was silent for a moment, as if he had figured something out. "You are not from this world."

The identity of the time traveler was revealed for the first time.

But neither the exposer nor the exposed showed any change of emotion.

Ryan has never concealed his identity as a time traveler. In this rune universe with the "heaven", the "underworld", the "spiritual realm", and magical places like Bandle City, outsiders are not strange at all.

He had always thought so, and now this thought had come true.

Ryan's only response was to ask with a hint of curiosity, "Have you met anyone else who isn't from this world?"

"No, because when you came to this world, you have become a part of this world." Victor in white robes was not making a witty remark with Ryan, but stating a fact, a 'scientific' law.

"So you're waiting for me here because darkness always accompanies me?"

"That's both right and wrong. You seem to come from a special place. You understand this world and us better than anyone else..." White Robe Victor said frankly, "I was originally planning to undo my mistake, but your appearance made it easier to achieve."

"Have you seen a future where I successfully put an end to your mistakes?"

"I was initially keen on finding solutions in the future, but then I gradually understood a truth, or grasped a law: the future I had seen was already 'dead' when I saw it.

“The future has countless possibilities. If I haven’t seen them, then they all have the probability of becoming the ‘only one’. But if I see it, it will have already become the past. So I slowly gave up this meaningless prying.

"Any shortcut will ultimately lead to mistakes, just like the 'mechanical ascension' I once pursued... After making so many mistakes, I realized that people ultimately need to be down-to-earth in their analysis, judgment, effort, and achievement."

Victor in white robes tried his best to make his words more understandable.

And Ryan did not disappoint the white-robed Victor's expectations.

He understood all of this and then asked again, "So, based on your knowledge and experience, what conclusion did you reach? What can I do to undo the mistakes you made and make that past and future cease to exist?"

People need to trust each other.

Ryan always kept in mind the advice of the master of Gouya Temple.

In this dangerous world, instead of wasting time and energy on testing, it is better to exchange sincerity for sincerity.

Humanity is not strong, only unity can create a common future.

"The essence of darkness is devouring. This world is made up of complex and diverse forces, and darkness's responsibility is to devour and bury everything that should not exist in this world."

White Robe Victor has undoubtedly gone further in his understanding of the world than Vastaya Xiarui did ten thousand years ago.

He looked at Ryan and said expectantly, "The mistakes I made and the history I created also belong to 'everything'."

After knowing the truth, Ryan had countless thoughts in an instant.

After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"But in your world, cause and effect have already been established."

"Yes, but darkness has the ability to erase this cause and effect."

"Are you sure?" Ryan looked at Victor in the white robe.

"Sure." The latter nodded slightly.

"Even if the price is your death?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Victor's mouth in the white robe. "This is what I have been looking forward to for countless years. Finding the ending that should have belonged to me."

While countless people are chasing after immortality, a 'god' who has already achieved immortality is chasing after death.

Ryan stared at the white-robed Victor for a long time, and finally gave up any thought of comforting him.

For an omniscient and omnipotent being, he may no longer peek into the future, but deep down in his heart he must have already thought of his own ending.

Compared to letting a 'world' go to destruction, letting a 'god' end is undoubtedly a wiser choice.

After all, the situation here is different from that in Zaun. There are countless solutions there, but here there is only one.

An inevitable, fearless, and great sacrifice is the only way to save the world.

"I'll try." Ryan started forward.

When I stepped across the white light and into the empty space, the surroundings seemed to suddenly become quiet.

This kind of silence was a true 'silence' that he had never felt before.

space;

time;

Even the life that ordinary people know has become quiet here.

but......

A gloomy air blew past Ryan's cheek.

The empty space had 'changed' because of him and the darkness.

A gloomy atmosphere began to spread in this vast and almost boundless space, but even the power of darkness seemed unable to reach the edge.

The farther the gloomy atmosphere spread, the wider the boundaries of the entire space seemed to become.

Victor in a white robe was also watching the spread of darkness, and the look under his hat seemed to be one of anticipation.

But as this spread came to an end, that glimmer of hope turned into regret...

-

Praise yourself again!

Is the ending I gave to Victor better than the original?

Chapter 385 It’s decided to be you, Leblanc!

Darkness is undoubtedly powerful, it can even ignore space and time.

But for this vast and almost boundless space, the darkness is still a little "weak".

"Still not working?"

Victor in the white robe lowered his head and hid his loss with the brim of his hat.

Sacrifice is a difficult thing to accept;

What is even more unacceptable is that you cannot even make sacrifices.

For the current White Robe Victor, endless life means endless pain and regret.

Omniscience and omnipotence cannot reduce his inner guilt. On the contrary, the more he knows, the clearer and deeper his understanding of his sins becomes.

Even if a fool kills the people on a ship, it will not affect his ability to eat, drink and enjoy himself.

Because in his opinion, the death of that group of people had nothing to do with him.

As for Victor in White Robe, he can see the past and the future.

He could almost see through every detail of this "world" and clearly feel the persecution and suffering that every living being suffered because of his choices.

Perhaps his original intention was good, but the complexity of the world will make any kind of "good" become another attribute that is difficult to understand and predict during the development process, and this result will ultimately be borne by him alone.

“The quantity doesn’t seem to be enough…”

Ryan was also observing, or rather accepting, the movements in the darkness.

The gloomy power was like his 'eyes' and 'ears', measuring this vast space in its own way.

The feedback Darkness gave him this time was different from before.

The devouring nature of Darkness meant that in most encounters, it would attack the enemy while simultaneously chopping them into small pieces...

But this time, there was no "existence" in the empty space that could be cut into pieces, which made the darkness lose its "dinner" tonight.

Even horses need to be given grass before they are willing to run.

What's more, it's dark?

"If you had brought me in later, maybe the chances would have been better."

The dark power that Ryan is using now is the power that was slowly eroded and transformed by the original dark flame.

After he himself entered this world, the cannibalization process was stopped.

Because after the real owner entered this world, the previous "loophole" was immediately repaired.

"It wasn't me who brought you in, it was Wild Rune who brought you in..." Victor in white robe quickly adjusted his mentality and emotions. The countless failures had made him numb to such things.

"You still can't control it?"

“It’s the cornerstone of world building, like a dark magic that’s hard to control. I’m controlling it, but it’s also controlling me. This relationship is a dynamic one.

"Maybe I can take the initiative most of the time, but there will always be times when it takes advantage of me."

White Robe Victor felt that Ryan could understand his "pain".

This 'space' is independent of time and is composed of the power of runes.

As the being most deeply bound to the Wild Rune, White Robe Victor does control some of the rune's power.

But this power is not enough to make him a true creator. Otherwise, in the original work, he could just wave his sleeves, overturn all the past and create a brand new future, instead of painstakingly collecting countless runes and then going to countless time nodes to let Jace create more branches for the future.

The stupid method he adopted in the original book undoubtedly revealed his embarrassing situation.

Just as Vastaya Xiarui said, the power of runes is too dangerous and too uncertain.

Even the blue bald guy who traveled around the world collecting runes buried all the runes underground.

When he used the power of runes, it was more of a superficial "borrowing", rather than being like the young and inexperienced Victor, who almost connected himself with the runes.

Perhaps Ryze had already realized what would happen if he got too involved with runes...

However, for Ryan, darkness has been like a well-behaved kitten since he first came into contact with it.

He turned his head away, and a gloomy breath brushed against his cheek tactfully, as if the darkness was gently rubbing Ryan's face with its "head".

Is darkness difficult to control?

Ryan thought about this question for a second, and finally attributed Darkness's obedience to his own hard work and diligence.

He looked at the white-robed Victor and had a new idea.

That is to give the darkness some 'midnight snack'.

"Can you control it now?"

"Yes and no." The white-robed Victor saw Ryan's thoughts. "I can't let it go out to die. The power of the wild rune has an ignorant will. Its instinct makes it reject darkness."

Even ants have the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm, let alone a rune power?

White-robed Victor offered his idea, "Perhaps I can send you back, and then you can try your method again. This time, I'll try to suppress the Wild Rune for a while longer, giving you more time to accumulate strength."

"That would be such a waste of time, and I have a backup plan."

Ryan turned around and looked back the way he came.

The white light flowing like a thread makes the future seem so far away.

Walking in the 'Time Corridor' consumes the power of darkness, and walking back again would be a waste of time.

So he turned around and looked at the white-robed Victor, "Do you have a way to contact the time and space I was in before?"

“I can see it, but I can’t directly influence it.”

"As long as I can see..."

Ryan's idea is to use the power of White Robe Victor to spy on Syndra.

As long as this kind of spying is achieved, the darkness on the other side will alert Syndra.

Without knowing the ratio of the flow rates of the two worlds, Ryan didn't know how long it would take Syndra to realize that she needed help, so he needed to find a way to give Syndra a little "hint".

He told the white-robed Victor the solution.

However, after trying a little, the latter shook his head at Ryan and said, "I can't touch the darkness."

"why?"

"She's so powerful."

"..."

Ryan frowned.
