Chapter 427 Passing

I felt a strange sense of melancholy in my heart.

This time when I went back, I didn't even see Earth...

The subsequent timeline then falls into a repetitive reset.

Starting from Missilushi, it would take about thirty days to travel to hundreds of different continents in the surrounding area.

But most of the surrounding continents are not as large as Missilushi.

The process involves both rehearsals and on-site visits.

This also allowed Lu Cang to become quite familiar with the surroundings.

For example, the nearby Gran Island is a gathering place for ice mages. The climate there is exceptionally cold, and ice magic is exceptionally advanced.

There was only one church there, and it was almost entirely made up of fanatical followers of the Church of Storage and Cold.

Apart from Gran Island.

I've been to Barilo Island and Nasimi Continent more than once.

I've gained some experience by now.

Only after reading about everything that happened in the Secret Sea did Lu Cang begin to tell An Su about his true situation.

Lu Cang has confirmed Ansu's safety in the multiple reset timelines.

Even if he knew that he came from the future, it wouldn't have much of an impact.

First, I myself did not come from the distant future.

Secondly, Ansu himself did not have the ability to harm himself.

Even if Lu Cang reveals that he is under a time curse that resets time and space, An Su will not be harmed by it.

"So, you mean you actually come from the future? Just not so far in the future."

Ansu asked within her sea of ​​consciousness.

Lu Cang: "Mm."

Ansu felt somewhat relieved. "I knew it... I felt that way back in the Secret Sea."

"What are your plans next?"

"According to your logic, in about 30 days, it will be time for another reset, right?"

Lu Cang: "Yes, that's right."

"So, I'm now planning to try some things."

Ansu: "Try what?"

Lu Cang said, "Actually, during this reset period, I discovered some possibilities regarding changing time."

Having mastered forbidden magic of time, Lu Cang's understanding of time is far more profound than that of ordinary people.

While conversing with Ansu in his mind, Lu Cang returned to the ancient library once again.

"Good morning, Sister Beatrice."

Lu Cang's voice was soft, but Betty beside him was jolted awake from her panic.

She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth.

"Good morning, Lu Cang..."

"I wasn't sleeping!"

Lu Cang gave a helpless smile: "I didn't say you were going to sleep."

This is the 10th time I've greeted Beatrice the same way.

At the same time on the same day.

Betty's answer remained unchanged.

Maintaining regular interactions with certain individuals is also a consistent part of Lu Cang's routine, a way to determine whether the world has deviated from its intended course.

After Lu Cang warmly greeted her, he disappeared from Beatrice's sight in the next instant.

I could sense a slight surprise coming from Beatrice.

But that's just surprise.

Lu Cang had already arrived at the ancient books room.

"Is this what you meant by wanting to do?"

"How incredibly boring."

Lu Cang chuckled and shook his head: "How could it be such a trivial matter?"

Lu Cang opened the ancient book.

An Su looked at the tattered book in Lu Cang's hand, which was almost reduced to just a few pages, and couldn't help but complain, "Can you even understand a book this badly damaged?"

Lu Cang laughed and said, "Actually, I can see it quite clearly."

"You already know I'm cursed, and time repeats itself again and again."

"And everyone's actions, everything that everyone does, will be repeated exactly as they were, as long as I don't deliberately change them."

Ansu agreed, saying, "What has happened in the past is, of course, fixed and unchanging."

Lu Cang nodded and then said, "And this book, I actually take a look at it every time I come here."

But guess what happened?

Ansu: "The way you're asking this, it seems things have changed?"

Lu Cang: "Mm."

"The book is called 'The Curse of Time,' and it tells the story of another person who had the same experience as me and was cursed in the same way."

"But every time I read this book, the content is different."

Ansu: "You mean, in your own recurring timeline, there is another variable besides you."

Ansu was, after all, a genius.

In an instant, I understood the essence of the curse.

If time and spacetime are repeatedly reset.

The only one who caused the change was Lu Cang. If Lu Cang doesn't change, everything else will remain basically the same.

But this book, if it's as Lu Cang said...

That was a variable that shouldn't have existed in the first place.

“I remember you were very certain, Ansu, that history would not be changed by anything.”

Ansu replied confidently, "Nonsense, if history could be changed, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

"What if... it's a history that never existed?"

An Su was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What do you mean?"

His question wasn't because he hadn't figured it out, but because he had thought of something but wasn't sure.

Lu Cang: "I've thought about it for a long time..."

"I've thought a lot about time."

"Ansu, how much do you know about the historical gap from 5000 years ago?"

Before An Su could speak, Lu Cang had already provided the answer for him.

"I don't know, right?"

An Su chuckled coldly, "You've already asked me, haven't you? Why are you pretending not to know?"

Long before, in an unknown time and space.

Lu Cang should have already asked.

Lu Cang continued, "Why don't you know?"

"Because you were at a critical juncture in your life cycle, and you needed to be in an undisturbed environment."

"At the same time, you will not know what is happening in the world."

Ansu remained silent.

These few words of exchange have completely proven that Lu Cang understands him very well.

Lu Cang slowly said, "Time is divided into the past, present, and future."

"This moment is fleeting."

"The future remains uncertain."

"Only the past is certain."

"You said the past cannot be changed because if it were, the world would be in chaos."

"But what if it's a past that's completely unknown to anyone?"

"What would happen if things changed?"

Ansu was silent for a moment, then continued, "According to your logic, if we want to change the past, we have to keep it a secret from the whole world."

Lu Cang added, "Or perhaps it's about making everyone in the world believe that things that don't actually exist."

As soon as this sentence came out.

A name involuntarily popped into Ansu's mind.

Lotte.

The man who once controlled the whole world with his mind.

"You're not going to say you're going to pull off a scam that will fool the whole world? A time reversal."

Lu Cang shook his head: "No, at least not right now, I can't do such a great thing."

"but……"

Lu Cang looked at the tattered ancient book.

"If history could be changed, and people in two different timelines could influence each other..."

"Can I also influence another person?"

A stack of new books appeared in Lu Cang's hand.

Opening the book, a thought crossed my mind, and I left my handwriting on the page.

"My name is Lu Cang. I am trapped in the ruins of time, under a 'curse' that keeps resetting the past. It is now April 14th, 5026. If anyone has had a similar experience, please leave your information here. This curse..."

Lu Cang wrote hundreds of thousands of words.

In just a few minutes, as if writing a novel, he roughly described his experiences since the time-space reset.

Ansu: "Will this work?"

Lu Cang: "Who knows..."

But if my guess is true, what if there is someone whose spacetime is constantly being reset, overlapping with my own spacetime?

Maybe I'll actually get a reply.

Even if he is cursed more than 100 years later, as long as he returns to his own time and space, he may be able to see it.

Of course, it's only a possibility...
