Xiao Yan, ranked as the Great Yan Emperor, possessed unparalleled handsomeness, appearing almost sickly—yet, he was also the God of War of the Heavenly Palace! One day, Xiao Yan descended to the mo...
Chapter 120 Metaphysics Live Broadcast + Raising Children 44
Everyone's faces looked very ugly because they found that they could not use their abilities, including Xiao Yan's magic weapons, talismans, and elixirs.
Just like ordinary people, they felt the terrifying water pressure, their bones were squeezed and twisted, and the suffocating feeling of drowning came over them.
If it weren't for their extremely strong physical fitness, they would probably have died the moment they were unable to use their abilities.
The teleportation talisman could not be deactivated, and everyone was in despair.
"This time, you still lose."
From the bottom of the abyss, a deep voice came, and it was impossible to tell whether it was male or female.
Xiao Yan and the others were a little confused.
This voice must be the boss, right? What does it mean?
Just as they were puzzled, the priest took several oxygen cylinders from her doll.
After putting on the oxygen tanks, everyone finally came back to life and looked at the priest.
From her actions, it is not difficult to tell that the person the boss is talking about is her.
Could it be that at this time, she went back to the past and tried to change?
The idea is terrifying.
Think about it, the person you just met actually knew you for a long time, but at that point in time, you didn’t know him or her.
But then they thought that this person was their comrade-in-arms, and they felt that their hope of victory had taken a step closer.
"Madam, feel free to tell us whatever plans you have, and we will cooperate with you!" The wizard's eyes were bright. Although he looked mature, he was actually only in his early twenties.
The others didn't say anything, but the look in their eyes when they looked at the priest showed the same meaning.
The priest's expression was still as expressionless as when we first met, not like a living person.
“I’ve tried to rewrite it hundreds of times, but every time it doesn’t work.”
She looked into the abyss with her silver eyes.
"I finally know where I went wrong."
"Your ability is parasitic, parasitic on me."
The priest had a strange smile on his face, as if he rarely smiled.
As someone with the ability to travel through time, she is naturally the best choice. No wonder she fails every time no matter what choice she makes.
She picked up a dagger, the sharp tip of the blade engraved on the palm of her hand, with clear lines, consistent with the seven-pointed star on her black cloak.
The abyss roared with an unknown sound, and the sea water seemed to have substance, pressing towards them with overwhelming force.
The priest spat out a mouthful of black blood and chanted something that sounded like a song or a poem. A bright light shone from the sea surface to the bottom of the sea. Xiao Yan and the others were enveloped by the white light. The moment it disappeared, Xiao Yan and the others saw the priest standing alone on the bottom of the sea.
Her head was floating in the sea water, just like seaweed drifting with the water. Where the light never shone, there was endless darkness, surrounding her inch by inch.
The priest opened his mouth and spoke into their ears: "Go back and blow this place up!"
She maintained a sinister and eerie smile: "Nice to meet you, my name is Candice Caroline."
When Xiao Yan opened his eyes, all of them appeared on the road they came from.
When the wizard sensed that there was something inside, he was surprised and said, "Xiao, what is this? Doraemon..."
The words disappeared here in vain.
The wizard looked at the storage ring in shock, then looked at the others. The timeline was different from the original one, so he asked, "What happened? Why do I have an extra memory?"
"By the way, where's Candice Caroline?"
Xiao Yan and others looked around but did not see Candice Caroline, the priestess from Country M.
The sorcerer covered his chest and was a little unresponsive.
"What's going on? Didn't I get killed by those ugly things?" He said with lingering fear, "I never want to experience that kind of death again in my life!"
Xiao Yan thought thoughtfully: "The reason why we appear here again should be Candice Caroline's time travel ability."
The wizard looked unhappy, with a bad feeling in his heart: "What about Candice Caroline? She has traveled through time and space many times, why didn't she show up this time?"
Although he said this, he already had a premonition in his heart.
Candice Caroline once said that the BOSS's ability was parasitism. In order to prevent herself from being parasitized and causing the action to fail, she should have chosen self-destruction.
As for why they had no memories when they went back to the past, and why they have memories again now, it is very likely because Candice Caroline made a different choice from the previous timeline.
No matter how extraordinary a person's abilities are, there is a limit to them. Maybe she had no memory of it before because she was still alive. However, these are just guesses, and the only one who really knows is Candice Caroline herself.
The thought only lasted for a moment. Except for the sorcerer who was still confused about the situation, they did not go into the seabed to explore as planned, but left here and returned to the World Security Association.
Seeing them come back, Fang Heguang was a little confused: "Why are you back? Did you encounter any problems?"
Xiao Yan explained everything that had happened, and Fang Heguang looked a little solemn.
"I don't remember the Ms. Candice Caroline you mentioned."
The wizard widened his eyes: "How could she not remember? She is an elite from Country M! You gave us your blessings before we set off, and she was there too. How could you not remember?" He looked at Xiao Yan, wanting to prove that what he said was true.
The psychic from Country M was equally puzzled. "There's no one named Candice Caroline among our people. If her abilities are as you say, I shouldn't be unimpressed by her."
In their country, capable people will definitely be treated preferentially and should not be so unknown.
"This should be related to her ability. Now is not the time to discuss this. Ms. Candice Caroline has bought time for us. The most urgent task should be to arrange the evacuation of the people of Country R as soon as possible! If that BOSS also has memories, we will become very passive." Xiao Yan said seriously.
The R Country sorcerer screamed, "Evacuate? You mean to bomb our country? I don't agree! This is an act against humanity!"
Fang Heguang stared at the sorcerer. "If everyone were to be buried with your country, that would be a true act against humanity! You have to understand, we are informing you, not negotiating with you."
His unprecedentedly strong attitude made the sorcerer realize that China was no longer the decadent and dilapidated country it once was! Today's China has long been a great power on par with M and E! It is far beyond the reach of a small country like theirs to resist.
Wu Tang of Country H hypocritically advised, "Mr. Yamamoto Takumi, there's a saying in China: He who knows the current situation is a hero. Please don't act on impulse! You should decide where to relocate your people."
The person in charge of Country C was wearing a people's uniform and had his hair combed back neatly.
He glanced at the sorcerer and said, "Doesn't your country have a good relationship with Country M? Why are you still thinking about this? Country M is your big brother. As a younger brother, you can just move to Country M. Country M will definitely welcome you very much."
Country M: “…”
Migration is a foregone conclusion, and the sorcerer looked at the person in charge of Country M eagerly.
The person in charge of Country M had a headache.
There are many political parties in Country M. He's only the head of the World Security Council in Country M, not the president of Country M. How could he have such authority? You have to know that many people in Country M are very hostile to foreign immigrants, and many presidential candidates even use this as a way to gain public support. If he agrees to allow people from Country R to immigrate, he'll probably be driven out of office within an hour!
But if we disagree, how will the younger brothers in other countries view Country M?
"R Country resolutely chose to leave their country for the sake of human survival. I believe that all countries should treat their people preferentially and should take the initiative to accept R Country people."
He looked at Fang Heguang: "Isn't China a peace-loving country? I believe China will definitely develop a humanitarian spirit and accept the people of Country R, right?"
Other countries were cursing inwardly.
The sea monster incident must have been caused by Country R! Bombing their country for the sake of human survival is the reward Country R deserves!
Now that the US has thrown its problems onto China, they're genuinely gloating. Who's to blame for China's rapid development in recent years? We were all struggling together, and now, in the blink of an eye, they've become one of the world's top three nations! And yet they keep calling themselves a developing country! Who are they implying?
Of course, they also hope that China can be tougher so that they can refuse to accept the people of Country R!
Everyone is waiting for China's response.
Fang Heguang smiled kindly. "Although we still don't know what role Country R played in the appearance of the sea monster, there's a saying in our country that I'd be happy to share with you. It's called: Heaven's justice is clear, and retribution will come."
"Representatives of Country R, there's no need to look so grim. I'm simply explaining the meaning of this statement. It doesn't imply anything about you. Please don't take it personally. Of course, no one else can interfere with one's thoughts. If you insist on thinking this way, then I can't help it."
The head of Country M interrupted him: "Thank you for sharing the meaning of this sentence with us, but representative of China, does what you said have anything to do with the migration of people from Country R?"
Fang Heguang said calmly, "Representative of Country M, I know you're anxious, but please don't worry. As you said, China is a peace-loving nation. I'm sure everyone has studied accurate history and knows the relationship between us and Country R. Although that incident happened many years ago, it's still recorded in our country's history."
"Our country, China, is a peace-loving, democratic, and free nation, where every citizen enjoys freedom. If the people of Country R are willing to come, I believe the people of our country will very much welcome them."
Country M: “…”
Country R: “…”
Other countries: “…”
On the one hand, they say they welcome the people of Country R, but on the other hand, they talk about historical hatred. It would be strange if Country R dares to go there!
After China said this, Country A and Country F immediately remembered that there was hatred between them and Country R. Unfortunately, as allies of Country M, they did not dare to follow China's example and say this, otherwise they would offend Country M and be sanctioned.
