Chapter 943 Silence in the Car

The three of them got into the car. Xiao Gao looked serious and remained silent.

Xia Shouze used his missing eye to observe Su Weiyu ten years later.

"How about it?"

"Very strong. With such a huge price to pay, I feel that you might be able to defeat the Rift King in ten years."

"real or fake?"

"I'm not sure either, after all, I've never seen such a high price to pay, but no matter how strong you are, it's useless, you definitely can't summon it."

"Then look at yourself."

"I can't see it. It's probably because of the perspective. Anyway, I can't see myself ten years in the future using the mirror or Alice's thieving perspective, but it seems like I can use the other perspectives," Xia Shou said.

Su Weiyu said happily, "So we won, right? Because you're still alive ten years later, you definitely won!"

"It's hard to say, because it's the most likely future. But the difference between a 51% future and a 49% future isn't that big. Even a slight change in a factor can trigger a butterfly effect, causing the most likely future to change."

Moreover, it's not necessarily a victory. I might have deserted in the face of battle, or I might have become a living dead, still alive but without self-awareness," Xia Shou said.

"Don't be so pessimistic. Even if we really do desert, I don't think it's a big deal. It's not our fault if we can't save the world," Su Weiyu comforted her.

Xia Shou looked at Su Weiyu in surprise: "That's rare, Weiyu. You're quite optimistic, even though this situation is worse than the previous ones."

Not only that, Xia Shou also discovered that Su Weiyu was particularly motivated this time.

In the past, Su Weiyu would have definitely come to check on him after he had been so busy, but during this time, while he was busy, Weiyu had also been selecting suitable sealing items to enhance her own strength.

"Really?" Su Weiyu smiled and blinked, then fell into thought.

Although she felt that everything was perfectly normal, Xia Shou said that she was abnormal, so the problem must lie with her.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be due to the self-discipline notebook.

In her self-discipline notebook, she set a requirement for herself to focus on the most important things at hand, with the deadline set for Natsumori's next vacation.

Well, this isn't important, no need to worry about it. Su Weiyu naturally came to this conclusion and immediately put the matter out of her mind.

"Let's think about how to deal with Sprite," Su Weiyu said, getting back to the main topic.

"Actually, there's something I'm quite concerned about." Xia Shou said thoughtfully, "Ke Hen said that I died ten years later and the Scorpion Ridge moved into someone else's body, but she didn't mention the Black Shadow's rampage. And now, with my remaining eyes, I can still see the price I will pay ten years from now, which means that I didn't die ten years from now."

Although this phenomenon can be explained by the fact that when Kehen said those words to me, my future self was dead, and then I came back to life.

But I'm actually more inclined to believe that I didn't die, but Scorpionback escaped, and as for me... my whereabouts are probably unknown?

"Impossible." Su Weiyu immediately denied it. "Since I'm fighting alongside you and I'll still be alive ten years from now, no matter what you become, I'll definitely bring you back to the Control Bureau. Since I'm thinking this now, there's a very high probability that I'll do it then!"

"Yeah, but we can't rule out unexpected things." Xia Shou sighed wearily, rubbing his sore eyes. "Fighting by predicting the future is really too mentally taxing."

Seeing Xia Shou like this, Su Weiyu suddenly wanted to get up and sit next to him, massage his temples, and then massage his shoulders, just like they did afterward at the hotel.

But before the thought could even surface, the moment it emerged from the depths of my subconscious, it was suppressed again by the power of self-discipline.

“If I could run into Sprite, I could take him down,” Su Weiyu said. “The chances of success with the Trio Waltz are still quite high.”

"I've thought about that too, and to be honest, I think the chances of success are not small."

But such an easy tactic failed to defeat Sprite in the future, so there must have been some insurmountable obstacle.

"If I'm not mistaken, Sprite is probably no longer human, so he can see you and use his abilities to undermine your fighting spirit, preventing you from launching an effective attack. Or perhaps, his power to undermine fighting spirit is a range-bound fluctuation, spreading like a barrier, indiscriminately affecting the surroundings," Xia Shou calmly analyzed.

Su Weiyu fell silent; she felt mentally exhausted.

As Xia Shou said, they simply couldn't get around the "halo debuff" that Sprite used to demoralize them.

"We'll talk about it later. I think Xiao Gao's problem is more serious."

At this moment, Xia Shoucai looked at Jiang Wengao, who hadn't said a word as he got into the car.

Su Weiyu also cast a concerned look at him: "Should we ask him?"

"Let's see how things go first."

……

……

Jiang Wengao had no idea how he arrived at his destination. He had been in a daze the whole way and hadn't even realized that he had crossed the Seven-Forked Gate and arrived at the Blood Dynasty.

His mind was filled with images of his epic and heroic deeds being passed down through generations fifty years from now, much like a player in a game fifty years in the future learning about a legend from the past through various materials.

The Witch of Shattered Stars, the Cube of Fate, the God of Ninjas...

Jiang Wengao will probably have a place in the future, so thinking about it that way, it doesn't seem like a complete loss. This game's time travel ended in this way, which is actually not bad.

How tragic! How dramatic!
It's quite dramatic, really. He was clearly playing with fire, but decades later he's being celebrated for his precognitive abilities. It's really amazing when you think about it.

If he dies this time, will he return to his original world?

Perhaps I'll wake up as if from a dream, and then continue living an ordinary life as a game streamer.

Perhaps this extraordinary world is just a magical dream, and he is still in that dream.

People in a dream don't realize they're dreaming.

Such fantasies kept surging in Jiang Wengao's mind. At times, he felt it was a dream, and at other times, he felt that his great name would be passed down to future generations.

He used this heroic courage to numb himself, forcing himself to make that decision, and constantly spurring himself on with humiliation.

Jiang Wengao, Jiang Wengao, what a coward you are!

Your life could be exchanged for the lives of billions of people. Isn't that worth it?

At that moment, he suddenly remembered what Xia Shou had said to him—

He will become a hero, no matter how bad the situation, he can persevere, even if he is weak... because anyone can save the world.

He suddenly hated those words.

He felt that these words had put him in a difficult position, making him too ashamed to turn his back and run away.

"Hey, we're here."

He felt a hard pat on the shoulder, looked up, and realized that they had arrived.

The minister was there, and so was Brother Shou.

Xia Shou said, "Didn't you say you'd tell me on the way? You haven't said a word the whole way."
