Simultaneous Transmigration: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 269 I'm Really Not Your Father
The mysterious queen's messenger never returned, bringing back no news.

As expected, the Queen still refused to see me. I don't care about fate; I just want to be back by your side...

Xing Shang felt lost, like an abandoned puppy.

But she didn't show her frustration or disappointment; instead, she looked at Qin Sheng.

"What kind of deal does Mr. Noah want to make with the Queen?"

"My promotion requires the knowledge of the secrets of the subsequent potion recipes, or extraordinary properties." Qin Sheng was an honest man.

The last vestige of innocence in a mysterious world.

There is nothing that cannot be said in a respectable and upright manner.

Xing Shangjiang's heart stirred. If that's the case, then this person in front of him is also a Seeker of Secrets. I wonder what sequence he is?

If Mr. Noah hunted down General Twilight using his own strength, then he is at least a Sequence 4 mystic.

No wonder he seemed so ordinary to me, like a Sequence 9 Seeker. It turns out he's a high-sequence powerhouse from the same path, and must have even developed spells to conceal himself.

It's normal that I can't see through his depth.

"You are also a Seeker of Secrets. Do you possess any extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 5?" Qin Sheng asked.
"If you have one, I'm willing to trade with you."

"Sequence 5?" the Star General asked in confusion.

"You shouldn't need to use the extraordinary properties of this sequence."

“As I said, I need potions after the Seeker, including Sequence 5.”

Huang Jiajia doesn't seem very bright. Can't you tell that I'm just a weak, pitiful, and helpless Sequence 9?
Was it to help others find it? The thought flashed through Huang Jiajia's mind.

General Xing shook his head, about to speak, when he was interrupted.

"Gardelia." A female voice suddenly rang out.

A woman appeared on the ship at some point. She had long chestnut hair that reached her waist and a very good figure, which could be described as perfect.

She wore a women's blouse with a lace floral bow tie, paired with a gray skirt that went past her knees and a pair of tall leather boots, and a soft hat with a black veil hanging down.

The number of bizarre outfits has increased again.

Qin Sheng nodded, which was very much in line with the style of the mysterious queen.

There was a surprise on the stars—my mom really came to see me!
But the mysterious queen only called her name once before looking at Qin Sheng, her azure eyes revealing no emotion.

"Did you have Cattleya convey those two pronunciations to me, along with a message from Emperor Roselle?"

“It’s me.” Qin Sheng smiled and said in Chinese:
"Hello, Huang Beibei."

Every extraordinary individual possesses extraordinary characteristics on the go. If Qin Sheng were to eat Huang Beibei, he could directly become a Sequence 3.

Of course, that would be too brutal; Qin Sheng would never do such a thing.

However, later on, especially when there are only three positions in Sequence 1, you can only hunt others.

The next second, thick pea vines fell from the sky, isolating another space where only Qin Sheng and Huang Beibei existed.

Before the pea vine space closed, Qin Sheng turned back and smiled at Huang Jiajia.

Thank you, Jiajia. I'm going to talk to your mother about something personal.

Star General: "..."

Mom, what about me?
“Huang Beibei, Beibei…”

The enigmatic Queen Bernadette repeated the word in a strange Chinese accent, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

When Qin Sheng called her that, it reminded her of her father, Russell.

Roselle, a remnant of the old regime who was sent to Source Castle before Klein, is named Huang Tao. Bernadette is his daughter.

When Huang Beibei was a child, Russell often called her by this reduplicated word, but he did not teach his daughter Chinese.

Therefore, Bernadette could not understand the meaning of this reduplication; she only knew that it was a trace of her father.

Now, only the father knows that the language came from another person's mouth. Could this person be...?

Qin Sheng looked around at the pea vines and nodded.

"Mysterious reappearance, a very interesting ability."

Mystic Reappearance, the core ability of a Sequence 4 Mystic, allows them to draw power from their own mystical knowledge to create magic or sorcery.

The fewer people know about the corresponding occult knowledge, the less it is passed down, the more powerful the magic is. However, the relevant knowledge must have existed; it cannot be something you made up.

The Peeping Man path isn't particularly strong in the early to mid-game, but once you reach Sequence 4, if the Extraordinary One has a deep foundation, it can quickly become a dominant path in the current version.

Bernadette created many magical spells based on the earthly fairy tales that Russell told her.

For example, The Little Match Girl, The Ugly Duckling, The Emperor's New Clothes...

“Huang Beibei, what does this mean?” Bernadette asked.

"You could say it's another name for you, no, 'Beibei' should be considered your nickname or pet name," Qin Sheng replied.
"It originates from another surname."

Excluding the sealed continent, among the ancient remnants still alive on the northern and southern continents, the Goddess of Night is European, Adam is Russian, and there's also Fabti...

Both Russell and Klein were Chinese before they "traveled through time".

Well, now we also need to add me, Qin Sheng.

Although I come from outside the mysterious world and can be considered an ultimate outer god, all worlds on Earth are one family.

Tell me, am I from Earth?
I'm determined to be a remnant of the old order; even the original Creator couldn't stop me.

"Another surname... So, who are you?"

Bernadette suddenly became stern. "What do you know about him? How do you know?"

Today, she's acting like a dignified young lady.

"Don't be so serious, Beibei, because I am your father..."

Qin Sheng drew out a sentence as Bernadette's eyes flickered.

"...a fellow townsman."

Bernadette was disappointed. Deep down, she had actually held some hope that the person in front of her was her father.

Jiajia is searching for her mother, and Beibei is looking for her father.

"According to seniority, you should call me Uncle Qin, but if you don't want to, Lao Huang and I can each address each other separately."

Qin Sheng pronounced the character "Qin" in Chinese.

"Qin, is that another surname of yours?"

"Correct."

“I want to know everything about him.” Bernadette’s eyes, hidden by a black veil, were fixed on Qin Sheng’s eyes.

"I know everything." Qin Sheng smiled.

Bernadette felt a little nervous, like a child in front of Uncle Qin.

"But I can't tell you."

Huang Beibei: "...Why?"

"Look at you, so impatient. It's not that Uncle Qin is unwilling to tell you, but that you are too weak and not qualified to know those things."

Qin Sheng said earnestly, "If you can't become an angel, you'll always be an ant."

There is no word for ant in the Rune language.

Huang Beibei looked at Qin Sheng, "But you are just a Seeker of Sequence 9."

She was far superior to the Star General, and she had discerned Qin Sheng's true sequence; she was a true Seer of Secrets.

This extraordinary being, once she reveals her incomplete mythical creature form, will cause the deaths of many with just a glance.

"Oh? What about now?"

Qin Sheng's spiritual power overflowed, destroying the pea vines and transforming them into chains that bound and restrained his eldest niece.

Bernadette's eyes changed, and she struggled desperately, but her spirituality was suppressed, and she couldn't use any of her abilities. The Pea Vine Space had become the queen's prison.

If we don't use some tricks, you really won't know how many eyes Uncle Qin has.

Qin Sheng's spiritual chains turned into a rain of light and dissipated, flying back into his body.

"Beibei, you're not allowed to talk to Uncle Qin like that anymore."

“You are an angel…” Bernadette understood in her heart.

Beneath the youthful appearance of this person before you, there is a strong possibility that he is an ancient angel who has lost his extraordinary characteristics.

In the mysterious world, extraordinary beings become extremely difficult to kill once they reach the level of angels.

Even after losing their extraordinary characteristics and becoming evil spirits, angels still retain their status, can exist for a long time, can exert considerable power, and have the opportunity to be resurrected.

But what kind of angel could exert such power just by relying on the characteristics of Sequence 9, leaving me, a Sequence 3, powerless to resist?
Huang Beibei didn't understand.

This isn't too mystical, is it?
"I am not an angel, but merely a spy." Qin Sheng shook his head.

After a moment of silence, Bernadette asked, "What do you want from me?"

"I want all three of the extraordinary characteristics of the Seeker's Path: Sequence 5, 4, and 3," Qin Sheng said without any hesitation.

Huang Beibei actually possesses a Sequence 2 Sage trait, but that was reserved for herself. Uncle Qin is kind-hearted and unwilling to exploit his niece.

"Then what can you bring me?" Bernadette did not refuse immediately.

"Some of the things you want to know, the things you can know, and an opportunity for you to be promoted to angel—I will tell you more after you are promoted," Qin Sheng said.

Many of Russell's actions involved the pollution of the cosmos, something only those who become angels are qualified to know even slightly.

The mysterious Qin Sheng's previously sealed memories are related to this part.

“Okay.” Bernadette replied without hesitation.

She really didn't lose out; the opportunity to be promoted to angel was something that was hard to come by.

Moreover, once we've made contact with Uncle Qin, there's a long road ahead for us to enjoy good things.

"But I don't have the characteristics of Sequence 3 and 4 right now, and I need time to find them."

The high-sequence of the Seeker is actually very dangerous and difficult to cultivate.

"That's alright, the Astrologer trait is enough for now," Qin Sheng said.
"I'll tell you when you'll become an angel, but be careful to keep it a secret."

Bernadette has once again worked her fairytale magic: The Three Little Pigs.

"After a period of time, a divine descent of the true creator will occur in Tingen City of the Kingdom of Rune, and a descendant of an evil god will appear in the world at that time."

Qin Sheng: "You can try it and see if you can meet the ritual requirements for your advancement to Sage."

Starting from promotion sequence 5, each time a potion is taken, it must be aided by the power of a ritual.

This is to prevent loss of control during promotion due to the sudden increase of extraordinary characteristics in the body, and to stabilize the state through ritual.

The ritual is not necessary. Drinking the potion directly can also lead to success, but it is very dangerous and no normal person would do that.

The Path of the Seeker, the ritual by which a Sequence 3 Prophet ascends to a Sequence 2 Sage, is to prevent a catastrophe involving high-level forces.

"Don't make any predictions about this matter. It involves many high-level entities, and there's no shortage of people who can detect prophetic power," Qin Sheng said.

"I see."

"Alright, I will let you know the specific time of the divine descent later."

Bernadette asked, somewhat puzzled, "How do you know the exact time of the divine descent?"

This kind of thing should only be known to the planner of the divine intervention, right?
"This is a prophecy," Qin Sheng said seriously.

"You're not an angel, you don't understand."

I suddenly realized that playing the role of the Prophet Master is actually quite simple for me.

It's just a spoiler!

"Furthermore, if the events in Tingen City do not meet your requirements, I also know of other disasters involving high-level forces. You don't need to force your promotion; you can wait a while longer."

If you follow our great evil god, the Fool, you'll never have trouble finding such big events.

The case is solved! The plan to destroy the world was devised by Mr. Fool!

"Alright, now it's your turn to ask," Qin Sheng said.

"What's your relationship with him?"

“As I just said, we are from the same hometown. I have never met Russell and we don’t know each other, but we come from places with the same name.”

Qin Sheng: "For people like us, that's our hometown, the place where our souls belong. Don't ask us anything else."

Although it's not the same Earth, you can tell that the names are the same.

Uncle Qin likes to speak the truth.

"You don't know each other?" Bernadette's eyes changed.

She also thought that this ancient angel had once interacted with her father.

“This does not prevent me from having a good understanding of Russell.”

"You should be familiar with the words in his diary."

Because the current spirit world is a reborn state after destruction, it lacks the knowledge of modern Earth, and extraordinary beings are unable to perform divination or decipher its mysteries.

"Of course, that's our mother tongue."

Qin Sheng shook his head, "But I can't teach you, it involves secrets."

Rosell, you should thank me, or you'd be dead in front of your daughter tomorrow!

Russell loved writing in his diary. He felt that he was the only time traveler in the world, so he deliberately chose to record his experiences in Chinese, a language that no one in this world could understand.

Everything from advanced esoteric knowledge to everyday details was recorded in the diary.

This includes, but is not limited to, having a casual but intimate conversation with a noblewoman today, and having a deep, intimate chat with a transgender witch tomorrow.

All I can say is, who keeps a diary if they're a decent person?

Bernadette was somewhat unwilling; she couldn't say this or that, which left her feeling quite unsatisfied.

It feels like an itch that's happening from a distance.

Uncle Qin is so mean!

"I can tell you something that should be the most important thing to you," Qin Sheng said with a slight smile.

"Rossel is still alive."

"Where is he?" Bernadette asked quickly.

"I can't tell you, going there would be suicide."

"But he was assassinated in the White Maple Palace in his later years, and even the characteristics of a knowledgeable emperor fell into the hands of the Steam Church..."

Bernadette fell silent as she spoke, simply watching Qin Sheng quietly.

An angel who died while spying on her is seeking a new extraordinary ability to be resurrected, and has specifically sought her out...

Seeing Bernadette's deep gaze, Qin Sheng sighed.

“Beibei, you’ve suffered so much these years. If you really miss your father, I don’t mind transferring that longing to me.”

Bernadette remained expressionless. Are all people from her "hometown" so unruly?
In his early years after his transmigration, because everything he had experienced was so fantastical, he lived his life with a carefree attitude, treating everyone else as NPCs in a game.

Therefore, he sometimes acts very hastily and casually.

"Why don't you object to me calling you Beibei?" Qin Sheng asked, somewhat curious.

Because this is the taste of my father, and also because I can't beat you!
