My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 364 Z: What happened? I feel like my dad is bullying me! (Third update)

"No!" Lin Xinzhu belatedly realized, her tone ambiguous: "Uncle Chu... you know about the Dragon of Consciousness and Mind? And you recited it in your mind, which is why it was attracted... Did that guy tell you?"

"...No! But." Chu Zhu glanced at Lin Xinzhu speechlessly. Why do you think it was Z who said it? You've already mentioned those titles... Judging from that guy's appearance, he's definitely a dragon. It would be strange if he didn't use that title in his mind, right?

"?!" Realizing what was happening, Lin Xinzhu's eyes twitched uncontrollably. This was her fault?!

However, Lin Xinzhu didn't mention anything about processing the memories—she didn't have that ability, and judging from the previous situation—that bastard must have set something on her father? There shouldn't be too much concern about Chu Zhu's safety!
With a sigh, Chu Zhu considered the next reset and finally reached out to seal his memories in this area. However, he had a question in his mind: could the dragon fighting Z be the same one that appeared in his dream before?
"I wonder, in the feudal dynasty storyline, what's the dragon's status? Is he dead or...? Should he do something reckless and risk his life someday?"

Chu Zhu was momentarily eager to try, but he quickly suppressed the jumble of thoughts in his mind and cautiously asked, "Z, can you defeat that dragon? Is that dragon very strong...? But logically speaking, Z... doesn't he have three divine positions?"

"...You know so much." Lin Xinzhu was shocked. Although she was very anxious, she still managed to explain, "The old lizard alone is fine... but if you add a long snake to it, then there's a problem!"

"???" Chu Zhu was about to ask again when he saw a terrifying golden light appear in the distance. He vaguely saw a... five-clawed golden dragon? And then... with just that one glance, his golden divine light was activated again!

Chu Zhu: "..."

This world is too dangerous! Even a glance is a sin. It's only because Z gave him a buff. Otherwise…

Chu Zhu watched as the five-clawed golden dragon charged into the distance to join the battle.

"...It's too late!" Lin Xinzhu took a deep breath, said nothing more, grabbed Chu Zhu, and took a step forward, appearing directly at the entrance of the Hive Base: "Wait a moment, just use..."

"I know how to get in!" Chu Zhu interrupted Lin Xinzhu. "Tell me, why would the Eastern Divine Dragon join forces with the Western Giant Dragon? Shouldn't the Eastern Divine Dragon be fighting the Western Giant Dragon? And both dragons are gods?"

"???" Lin Xinzhu was stunned for a moment. After a few breaths to sort out her thoughts, she vaguely realized what Chu Zhu was thinking. She looked at Chu Zhu almost like she was looking at an alien: "...Is it possible that, although they are quite different in appearance and bloodline, they are both 'dragons'! When facing 'humans', or rather 'machines', it is normal for two beings that can be roughly classified as 'dragons' to join forces?"

Chu Zhu: "???"

Chu Zhu stared in disbelief as Lin Xinzhu left.

"..."

Seems to be fine!
Chu Zhu sorted out his thoughts. If the Eastern dragon is considered to be an East Asian and the giant dragon is considered to be a European or American, then even if the two might not like each other and fight each other normally, they can still join forces when fighting aliens!
He judged the Eastern Dragon to be one of his own just by its appearance... This is a mistake based on habitual thinking in the real world!
"So!" Chu Zhu gave a bitter smile, "Is this world really that dangerous...?"

He originally thought that Z, who possessed three divine positions, should be the strongest being, even if he couldn't sweep away everything else!

However, it seems that even for a one-against-two situation, Lin Xinzhu would need to assist him...

"So, Z is essentially 'a white-bearded old man who claims to be the strongest man'? Cough cough, he claims to be the strongest in the world, but... when it comes to fighting tough battles, his record doesn't seem to match his title... although it's also possible that the enemy is just too strong."

Chu Zhu silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, but did not turn around and enter the base—Lin Xinzhu seemed to have forgotten to dig a hole for him that led directly to the base!

Chu Zhu didn't currently possess the supernatural ability to control the earth. After thinking for a moment, he casually dug a hole with a tree trunk, covered it with some leaves and other things to conceal himself, and crawled inside!
He sat cross-legged inside, hoping to see Z, Lin Xinzhu, appear before him after the battle, and answer some of his questions—as for the safety of this pit, so be it! It doesn't matter. He was going to die anyway!
Chu Zhu recalled the contents of the diary and began to learn the third supernatural power. Time passed little by little, and soon, night fell...

"...Something's not right!" Chu Zhu squinted, and through the leaves, he saw a strange, dinosaur-like creature darting past in the distance. He sensed that it was past seven or eight o'clock in the evening...

Why haven't Z and Lin Xinzhu returned yet?

Chu Zhu didn't believe that Lin Xinzhu or Z had gotten into trouble. After all, if they were dealt with so easily, humanity would probably be extinct by now... So, the fight isn't over yet?
"The legendary King of Endurance?" Chu Zhu was momentarily at a loss for what expression to make. Finally, his body trembled slightly, and a look of joy appeared on his face: "...Successfully recovered one of his divine abilities!" The third divine ability was successfully learned—Chu Zhu's first recovered divine ability was naturally Destiny... However, perhaps because he was in the second realm when he replicated it, his Destiny divine ability only had two functions! One was exchange, and the other was luck.

Hmm... I don't have the third supernatural power of the Destiny Divine Power!

"...I'm numb! Should I ask Big Orange Cat to recreate it later?" Chu Zhu fell into deep thought. Then, she shook her head and began replying to the second one...

The second supernatural power is naturally the Crimson Sky Fire!
Then, no third copy was made because the body's energy was exhausted!
"So!" Chu Zhu wasn't going to wait any longer. He suddenly rushed out, and towards the startled dinosaur in the distance, he immediately performed a sliding tackle—

Then reset.

Chu Zhu slowly opened his eyes. He looked around and saw that it was still the mechanical base.

After rubbing his temples and remaining silent for a moment, Chu Zhu sensed the abundant energy within his body, and... um?

Chu Zhu frowned, sensing something was wrong. The golden light from the last Z blessing in his mind was still there, but... it felt like something essential had been lost!
The thought flashed through his mind, but this time, a faint golden light appeared on his body, and that was all... As for the golden wheel of merit rising behind him when he went all out like last time... he couldn't do it at all!

Z, who was diving, witnessed this scene and exclaimed: "!!!"

"...Is it the effect of the reset?" Chu Zhu frowned slightly, his mind racing, and he quickly came to a guess. Logically, a reset should maintain his power but wash away the corruption...so, judging from the reset mechanism, the blessing Z gave him was closer to a form of corruption?!

Chu Zhu's eyes twitched. In other words, the reason he was unharmed when he saw the five-clawed golden dragon and the projection of that giant dragon in his consciousness world was actually because Z forcibly covered up the pollution on the other side with his own 'pollution'?

Outrageous!

Although it felt full of flaws, Chu Zhu didn't dwell on it and closed her eyes to continue replying. She also finished replying to the fluid magic ability while doing so…

this moment--

Destiny! Fluid! Crimson Flame!

Three nouns with magical powers!
Chu Zhu slowly opened her eyes, a smile she couldn't suppress creeping onto her lips.

This is the strongest memory technique, the strongest Chu Zhu! The strongest me!
Chu Zhu got up with great interest, but this time, he didn't plan to let Z give him another buff—since the reset factor would prevent him from wearing the fully upgraded Merit Golden Wheel, adding another buff now wouldn't be of much use.

Moreover, Chu Zhu now has some doubts about whether the Merit Golden Wheel buff might cause significant damage to Z.

The reason for the problem last time... could it be that the lizard connected to consciousness discovered Z's weakness! So it attacked mercilessly? And incidentally sent its myriad races to invade Z's base?

Considering all of this, Chu Zhu got up and walked straight to the door: "Z, open the door for me!"

After a brief silence, Z obediently opened the mechanical door.

"Thank you! You're a good boy..." Watching Chu Zhu leave so smoothly, Z... fell into deep thought!
Can anyone tell her what happened?!

She vaguely recalled everything that had happened, remembering that her father had only let her open the door once from beginning to end, and hadn't asked her any other questions—emmm, why did she inexplicably feel like she was being subjected to emotional abuse…
