Starting from Douluo Continent, I've become a god through daily check-ins.

Chapter 286 The Unwilling Facts

Zero stared at his hands in astonishment. He couldn't believe that he was actually this kind of person!

"No, no, I'm definitely not that kind of person. You're lying to me, you're lying to me!" Zero's voice gradually became frantic.

"I'm lying to you? Then how do you explain what's in your right hand? You should know what's in your right hand." Jing Chen pointed at Zero's right hand and said.

Zero immediately calmed down and looked at his right hand. Sure enough, he saw the bracelet on his right wrist. He naturally knew what the bracelet was. During his first time piloting with Zero-Two, he had obtained some memory fragments. Although he wasn't sure if they were his own, those memory fragments did indeed contain the method for using the bracelet.

"Starry Sky, the most powerful firearm, and the only firearm among all the weapons you possess. This gun can use many types of bullets, such as ordinary bullets, armor-piercing bullets, and high-explosive bullets, but Starry Sky can also make bullets from any material and perfectly release the most powerful energy of that material. You didn't know any of this, did you?" Jing Chen asked with a smile.

"Why should I know? This thing is definitely yours! Those memories... those memories must have been forced on me by you!" Zero roared in disbelief.

"Oh? Really? Do you remember what happened that day? When you were little, did Man ask you what your name was? Do you remember the origin of your name? How did you and Mei meet? Do you remember all of these?" Jing Chen asked a series of questions.

Zero was completely dumbfounded when he heard these questions. That's right, he didn't know the answers to any of them! No matter how hard he tried to recall, he couldn't remember anything. What... what was going on?

Jing Chen smiled and said, "Stop struggling. I am you, and you are me. That's an indisputable fact."

"Even so, I can't possibly admit that you are me!" Zero vehemently denied it.

"Why won't you admit it? Isn't it good to have great power? Once you have this power, anyone who stands in your way will die! Isn't that good?" Jing Chen asked him.

Ling shook his head, an expression of disbelief on his face, backing away as he did so. Who wouldn't want to accept such a fact?

Jing Chen smiled slightly. "Fine, when you acknowledge that I am you and you are me, you will be able to return to your true self and awaken once more as the strongest person you are." With that, Jing Chen's figure slowly vanished...

"Darling? What's wrong?" Zero's voice came, and Zero finally came to his senses.

He looked around and returned. Seeing Zero's puzzled expression, Zero smiled. "It's nothing."

Looking at her classmates and Zero Two in front of her, Zero seemed to have found the answer to a certain question in her heart. "Even if I am that kind of person, since I have become like this now, it proves that the person I was before must have been the kind of person I hated. In that case... at least for now, let me enjoy this scene. Jing Chen..."

Speaking of Jing Chen, Ling felt like he had heard the name somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place it. He couldn't remember where he had heard it before, but the sense of familiarity was undeniable.

Also, he kept feeling like he wanted to forget something, but he just couldn't remember it. He had done something before, but now he couldn't recall what it was. He only had a vague memory. Moreover, after riding with Zero three times, Zero could clearly feel that there seemed to be a shackle on him, and that shackle was gradually breaking down...

Jing Chen stood high in the sky, looking down at Zero. A slight shift occurred in the space around him, and a mysterious figure silently appeared behind him. Without turning his head, Jing Chen said, "What, you're back after all that hard-earned vacation?"

"This world is a wasteland, what's so fun about it? There are mobile fortresses everywhere, it's annoying to look at. Also, the people in this world are really rigid, they don't have their own independent thoughts, they're like puppets, it's repulsive," the mysterious man said disdainfully.

"This only proves that the 'BOSS' of this world is indeed quite capable, able to control the humans of this world like this. He's truly impressive," Jing Chen said.

"If you hadn't said that the 'BOSS' of this world belonged to you, I would have already wiped them all out and then restarted this world," the mysterious man said.

"So you're still too hasty. What humans are best at is finding a glimmer of hope in such an apocalyptic world. Once they seize that glimmer of hope, you'll see the most powerful side of humanity," Jing Chen said with a smile.

The mysterious man chuckled and shook his head. "So, you still think the same way? Wouldn't it be easier to just reboot the world? Why go through all this trouble?"

"Only through hardship can humanity go further. Restarting the world is indeed convenient, but what if they don't have a way to deal with difficulties? Would you come back to restart it again?" Jing Chen turned to look at the mysterious person behind him and asked.

"This..." The mysterious man hesitated.

"But I don't blame you. After all, you haven't been back for a long time. I know you're very tired, but... just hang in there a little longer. I'll leave the 'BOSS' position to you in the end, okay?" Jing Chen said.

"Alright, I've been holding in a lot of anger and don't know who to vent to. Since you've put it that way, I'll just have to bear with it a little longer," the mysterious man said.

……

Hundred Flowers Garden...

"Sister Xiaowu, when is Jingchen coming back?" Ning Rongrong asked anxiously.

The women gathered in the courtyard, all surrounding Xiao Wu, who was sitting at the stone table.

"Yes, Jing Chen hasn't come back even once since he went to the next world," Zhu Zhuqing said.

"That guy isn't dead, is he? He deserved it," Hyotei said nonchalantly.

"Bing'er! Don't talk nonsense!" Xue Di immediately scolded.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to my brother. Besides, Shenyu and Duoyu are here, and you all know how strong my brother is. With the strength of that world, who can threaten my brother's power? Don't worry, maybe something happened to my brother that prevented him from coming back," Xiaowu said.

"Yes, Xiao Wu is right. Trust Jing Chen, he'll be alright," Bibi Dong said.

"Don't worry, don't worry, Jingchen is smarter than anyone else, how could anything happen to him? Maybe he's just having too much fun and forgot to come back to check on things," Poseidon said.

The middle-aged woman nodded. Jing Chen was so strong; there was indeed no need to worry about him. But, in certain situations, a woman's IQ is zero, right?
