After the Chiyou incident was resolved, Adam boarded the Hyperion with Kiana and the others. This sudden change left everyone perplexed. They couldn't help but wonder: why did Adam suddenly disappear and reappear? Why was there a girl with Adam who looked exactly like the squad leader, Fu Huachang? And why was Adam so powerful? Kiana and the others were deeply concerned.
At this time, Theresa was looking at Adam in the captain's office.
Theresa seemed to care quite a lot about this man whom she had heard of from her niece a long time ago.
Whether it was the other party's powerful strength or the fact that he claimed to be a member of the Destiny, but she had never seen him before, Theresa was very curious.
Especially after the other party entered Hyperion, he always behaved very calmly and seemed quite familiar with the layout here.
Theresa became more and more concerned about why this guy came to Hyperion.
"Ahem." Theresa coughed briefly and then said to Adam, "Mr. Adam, right? I'm Theresa, the principal of St. Freya's College. I've heard a lot about you from my nieces. Thank you for taking care of them."
Adam smiled slightly and replied calmly, "It's nothing. After all, taking care of them is my wish. There's no need to thank them."
Theresa nodded slightly, her expression revealing admiration for Adam. She noticed his composure and decisiveness in the face of adversity, as well as his immense strength in battle. She was truly curious about such a person.
"Mr. Adam, I am very concerned about your identity and abilities. You claim to be a member of the Mandate of Heaven, but I have never heard of you. Moreover, after you entered Hyperion, you seemed very familiar with the layout here. Can you tell me more about your background and experience?" Theresa asked.
Adam smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of mystery. He looked at Theresa quietly, thinking about how to respond.
He knew that although Theresa looked unreliable, she was actually quite shrewd.
The other party asked this question, definitely wanting him to speak up, but Theresa wouldn't be able to believe an ordinary lie.
"I'm sorry, I can't reveal much about my identity to you. It's not because I don't trust you, but because knowing it wouldn't bring any benefits and would only cause huge trouble."
Theresa frowned slightly, sensing the deeper meaning behind Adam's words. She knew he wouldn't easily reveal more information. But her trust in him and her curiosity led her to believe him.
"Mr. Adam, while I'm curious about your identity and abilities, I believe you have your own reasons for keeping it secret. Regardless, I want to thank you for your bravery during the Chiyou incident and for saving Jizi, Kiana, and the others. If you need any help or have any trouble, please let me know. The academy will fully support you."
Adam smiled slightly, expressing his gratitude for Theresa's support. He understood how important it was to have a strong ally in this strange time and space.
"Thank you for your support, Principal Theresa. I will do my best to protect myself and fulfill my mission. If needed, I will seek your help."
Theresa nodded, a hint of determination in her eyes.
"So, where are you going next, Mr. Adam?" Theresa continued to ask Adam.
Adam smiled slightly.
"I plan to go to Saint Freya with you. Let me make it clear that I'm going there to help you." Adam's voice was firm and confident.
Theresa frowned slightly in confusion after hearing Adam's words. She was increasingly confused by Adam's appearance and the threat of anti-entropy he mentioned.
"Help us?" There was a hint of doubt in Theresa's voice.
Adam nodded and continued seriously, "That's right. Believe it or not, Anti-Entropy has already set its sights on you. It won't be long before they actively attack you."
Theresa listened intently, a flicker of surprise and worry in her eyes. She hadn't imagined the academy would become the target of Anti-Entropy, nor had she expected someone from Heaven to appear and offer to help them.
"Mr. Adam, if what you said is true, then we really need your help. But Anti-Entropy is very powerful. How should we deal with it?" There was a hint of powerlessness in Theresa's voice.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Although the anti-entropy is indeed very strong, they are not a united force. The one who will probably attack Saint Freya this time will probably be Cocolia." Adam said to Theresa at this time.
"What is that woman planning to do?" When Theresa heard that it was Cocolia who was causing trouble, she immediately started to have a headache. As for that woman, Theresa wanted to kill her right now.
"It will probably take some time for the enemy to attack. When that happens, all you have to do is trust me."
Although she was still very worried, Theresa had no better solution at the moment.
This incident really consumed too much of her energy.
Meanwhile, in the ward, Fu Hua lay quietly on the bed. Her injuries, which had been fatal, were now recovering at an astonishing rate.
Although her injuries were healing rapidly, no one noticed. The doctors and nurses were busy treating other injured people and no one noticed Fu Hua's changes.
In the blink of an eye, Fu Hua woke up. She looked around and found that she was the only one in the entire infirmary except Ji Zi and Ji Lin who were still in a coma.
She stood up gently, feeling no discomfort in her body, as if those serious injuries were just a dream from yesterday.
Fu Hua walked to the window and gazed into the distance through the glass. A thin layer of clouds drifted across the sky, and sunlight shone on the earth, creating a tranquil scene. However, Fu Hua's heart was filled with uneasiness and anxiety.
"I must tell Otto about this matter immediately." Fu Hua made up her mind secretly at this time. When she was about to find her communicator, a girl who looked like her came behind her.
"Oh? Isn't this an old antique? What are you thinking of doing now? Sneaking around like that, aren't you trying to deliver information to that Otto guy?"
Fu Hua's eyes widened as she watched Xiao Shi appear. She subconsciously tried to throw a punch, but Xiao Shi caught it firmly.
Seeing Fu Hua's face showing a hint of panic at this moment, Xiao Shi showed an amused smile on his face.
Chapter 675: Old Antique and Little Knowledge
Looking at Xiao Shi who appeared beside her, Fu Hua was shocked and wanted to take action immediately. However, the next moment, Fu Hua found that her body was completely unable to move.
"Hey, you old antique, you actually want to take action?" Xiao Shi said to Fu Hua with disgust.
"Who the hell are you?! Why are you pretending to be me?!"
Fu Hua looked warily at the girl in front of her who looked exactly like her.
"How should I answer this question?" Facing Fu Hua's question, Xiao Shi thought with some distress, while Fu Hua secretly clenched his fists at this time, as if preparing to attack Xiao Shi directly.
However, at this moment, the door to the infirmary suddenly opened. Kiana, Mei, and Bronya walked in and looked at Fu Hua and said, "Captain, you're awake!"
After seeing the three people come in, Fu Hua immediately withdrew her hand as if nothing had happened.
"What's going on? What happened?" Kiana looked around vigilantly and noticed something unusual.
Mei held the weapon tightly in her hand and glanced vigilantly at the situation between Xiaozhi and Fu Hua.
Bronya maintained a calm expression, staring at Xiaozhi firmly, as if looking for some clues.
"Hey, Xiaoshi, you are here too? What are you and the squad leader doing?" Kiana asked Xiaoshi as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Shi quickly put on an innocent expression, pretending to be completely unconcerned. "No, no, no, nothing happened. I just came to see if Old Antique had woken up."
Despite her condition, the three of them immediately knew Xiaozhi was lying. They could all sense a strange atmosphere in the room, as if something wrong was about to happen.
"Speaking of which, why do you call me Old Antique?" Bronya asked curiously. She maintained a calm expression, staring firmly at Xiao Shi, as if searching for some clue.
"Because don't you think that no matter what this guy does, he looks very old-fashioned?" Xiao Shi answered as a matter of course.
The three of them were stunned by Xiao Shi's answer, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the other party did not say anything wrong.
"Well, the squad leader does act like an old man sometimes." Kiana said suddenly feeling a little embarrassed.
"I often forget things sometimes." Mei added with a hint of smile on her face.
Bronya narrowed her eyes, staring sharply at Xiaozhi. She could sense that Xiaozhi was hiding something important. Deep in her heart, a feeling of unease gradually spread.
"By the way, squad leader, do you know Xiaoshi? You two look like twins." At this time, Kiana asked Fu Hua again.
Fu Hua glanced at Xiao Shi, a look of confusion and doubt in her eyes. "No, I don't know this person," he said decisively.
"Oh, that's just how old-fashioned he is. But to be honest, our relationship is indeed very close." Xiao Shi said, shaking his head.
Kiana frowned slightly, confused about the relationship between Xiao Shi and Fu Hua. "Oh? Tell me what your relationship is?" she asked curiously.
Xiao Shi smiled slightly, as if recalling something from the past. "Come to think of it, our relationship is more like... mother and daughter?" she said uncertainly.
After hearing Xiao Shi's description, the four people present all froze in place.
"Wait! Why are they mother and daughter?" Kiana felt her mind was a little confused and found it difficult to understand for a moment.
"Because I was born from her body, it's okay to say we are mother and daughter." Xiao Shi said as a matter of course.
Now, not only Kiana was confused, but even Fu Hua herself suspected that she had lost her memory for too long and had forgotten that she had a daughter.
"Wait a minute, what are you two talking about? What do you mean?" Bronya finally couldn't help but ask, with a hint of vigilance in her voice.
Xiao Shi smiled slightly, as if recalling something from the past. "Actually, a long time ago, Fu Hua and I were one and the same."
Just as Kiana's brain was about to shut down, Adam finally walked into the infirmary. He looked at the crowded crowd inside the infirmary, frowning slightly. His eyes fell on Xiaozhi, and he asked curiously, "Xiaozhi, so you're here?"
Xiao Shi turned around and smiled slightly when she saw Adam coming. "Well, I came here to look at some antiques." She pointed at Fu Hua.
Adam's brows furrowed. He glanced at the squad leader, then turned to Kiana and said in confusion, "Wait a minute! Adam, please explain to us! What's going on with Xiaozhi? Could she be a clone?"
When Kiana heard what Adam said, her face turned pale. She grabbed Adam's arm tightly and said anxiously, "Why do you think so? Don't you think this situation is very strange? Xiaozhi actually claimed that she and the class monitor are mother and daughter! This is simply unbelievable!"
After thinking it over for a while, Adam felt there was nothing more to hide, so he replied, "Well, actually, Xiaoshi isn't human. To be more specific... she's a Herrscher."
After hearing what Adam said, the people present were not only stunned but even petrified.
What did they hear? Xiaozhi is a Herrscher?!
"That's right, I am the great Ruler of Consciousness~!" Xiao Shi said very proudly at this time.
At this moment, the people around seemed to be completely broken, and the image of the Herrscher seemed to collapse directly in everyone's mind.
Adam's words exploded like a bomb in the infirmary, instantly causing chaos and shock. Everyone stared at Xiao Shi in stunned silence, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Wait, you said Xiaozhi is a Herrscher?" Kiana stammered, repeating Adam's words, her voice full of shock and confusion.
"That's true, but she is now possessed by Yu Duchen, so she is more like Yu Duchen's spirit, right?" Adam continued at this time.
"Hey! Who do you say is the weapon spirit?"
"Ah, I think I said something wrong? But it doesn't matter. You've been like this for several years anyway."
At this time, Fu Hua fell into even greater chaos.
She still hasn't figured out what's going on.
Chapter 676: Explanation from Adam
After a while, Adam returned to his room exhausted. He didn't know how to deal with the recent unusual events, and his mind was in a chaotic mess. He sat quietly on the edge of the bed, his hands tightly grasping the quilt, his eyes staring blankly at a wisp of dust on the floor.
Light filtered through the window, illuminating Adam's face. His expression was filled with fatigue. Time and space had been altered so many times that history was now in chaos.
Just when Adam wanted to rest for a while, he felt his door was pushed open. Adam did not turn around, because he knew who it was. He knew it was Fu Hua.
"Can we chat?" Fu Hua said to Adam with a serious expression. Adam saw Fu Hua's eyes and knew that this conversation must be very important. He nodded and without saying a word, the two of them walked into the restaurant together.
The restaurant's lighting was soft and warm, and abstract artwork hung on the walls, creating a tranquil atmosphere. In front of Fu Hua sat a cup of tea. Through the transparent walls, tea leaves danced slowly in the hot water, emitting a delicate fragrance.
Fu Hua stared at Adam silently, her eyes filled with endless doubt and bewilderment. She had exhausted every possible method to uncover the mystery of Adam's identity, but she could find no clues. Adam's existence was a mystery, as if he didn't exist in this world.
"Before you ask me about my identity, Miss Fu Hua, what identity are you asking me about? A student of Saint Freya? A hidden S-rank Valkyrie? The legendary Red Kite Immortal? Or... a member of the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire?" Adam's voice was low and firm, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Fu Hua's pupils shrank upon hearing this. Adam's words seemed to have touched upon a secret deep within her heart. She tried to recall her past memories, but could not find any clues to these identities.
"Adam, who are you? Why can't I find any information about you?" Fu Hua's voice was full of struggle and confusion.
"Do you recognize this?" Adam suddenly handed the mark on his hand to Fu Hua. She took the mark, her face full of shock and confusion.
"You're from World Serpent!" Fu Hua looked at Adam warily, with endless doubts in her heart. World Serpent is a mysterious organization that wields enormous power, but their purpose and actions have always been a mystery.
Adam shook his head and smiled. "No, I'm not from the World Serpent. I'm somewhat related, but I've been to the Elysium. Now you understand."
Hearing Adam's answer, Fu Hua's eyes were still full of vigilance. She began to realize that Adam seemed to know more about her identity. Her past identity and past experiences, some things, even she herself was about to forget.
Fu Hua put down the seal in her hand and stared at Adam, her voice trembling: "Adam, who are you? Why do you know these things that I have forgotten?"
"Well, you will know later, but the important thing is that you just need to know that I am here to help you." Adam said at this time.
Fu Hua asked in confusion, "Help us?"
"That's right, Otto will soon implement his plan. At that time, Kiana and Mei will become his targets. What will you do then?" Adam asked Fu Hua mysteriously.
Fu Hua stared at Adam in shock. She hadn't expected Adam to even know about Otto. "You even know something like this?"
"That guy Otto will definitely target the Herrscher to gain power in order to revive Kallen. As his long-time friend, you shouldn't be unaware of what kind of person he is, right? To him, whether the world is destroyed or not is completely unimportant."
Fu Hua felt a surge of unease. Otto had once been their friend, but now he had become mad, unscrupulous in pursuit of his own ends. She knew that if she didn't act, Otto would bring disaster.
"So what are your plans, Adam?" Fu Hua asked with a frown.
"What plans can I have? He is the Archbishop of Destiny. All I can do is wait and see." Adam did not explain too much to Fu Hua. Strictly speaking, Fu Hua was not on his side.
Adam has known Otto for many years, and he doesn't think Fu Hua would trust him so easily.
This time, I just wanted to give Fu Hua a reminder.
"Okay, in that case, let's change the subject." Fu Hua sighed softly and continued to ask Adam, "Is that girl named Xiao Shi really a Herrscher?" She was filled with confusion and couldn't understand why she had no memory of the Herrscher.
"Yes, it is the Herrscher. I did not lie to you about this. And, she was indeed born from your body." Adam replied calmly.
"Why don't I have any impression of this?" Fu Hua's voice was filled with confusion and helplessness.
"Maybe you have forgotten? After all, you know your body well. Every once in a while, you will lose a piece of memory." There was a hint of bitter smile in Adam's voice. He knew that this was a torment for Fu Hua.
