"The disorder of time and space has made us appear in a place where we shouldn't be, and also made people who shouldn't exist appear here."
"And the reason why this thing shouldn't appear is because it already exists in this space."
These words completely confused Bai Chimian. His proud brain finally felt inadequate. "You're saying that the 'beast core' we hypothesized is in Chen Qian, but another identical 'beast core' appeared in the same space and time, so it has become an unspeakable existence?"
"That's about the meaning, but using objects to understand it is too abstract. If you understand it as two Qianqian can't appear in the same space, then it's easier to understand."
Jiang Lingrui spoke more and more smoothly, and continued based on this idea, "I can't prove whether this understanding is valid, but we can make an assumption based on this idea."
"A 'Qian Qian' who shouldn't be in this time and space was discovered by Qian Qian and Wei Jingzhe. Due to the rules, they couldn't say anything."
"That makes sense. Next, we need to confirm whether our hypothesis of 'Qian Qian' is a human or animal core, or something else entirely."
Bai Chimian objected, "This conjecture is based on your understanding, but if two 'Qian Qian' can appear in the same space-time, then your subsequent inferences are useless."
Jiang Lingrui pointed to the information Wei Jingzhe had just sent, "Now we just need to do what we can do. It may take some time and thought, but it's better than being directly restricted by the rules."
Compared to other uncontrollable speculations, their best option now is to use what they have on hand to confirm the speculations that can be verified soon.
Han Zi raised his eyelids and glanced at them. "...If we trace back the timeline of our previous speculation and expand the scope, we shouldn't limit it to the period after Qianqian's advancement, but start from the very beginning."
"At the beginning? Probably when Qianqian traveled to twelve years later. If we follow the rule that there can't be two Qianqians in the same time and space, then that means there is another "Qianqian" in this blank twelve-year timeline?" Jiang Lingrui quickly gave the answer.
If it was just a wild guess at the beginning, the more they guessed, the more they connected many trivial things together, and it seemed that this was really possible.
"It should have been even earlier. Do you remember the human I met in that competition? We didn't have much chance to communicate at the time, but I remember the fabric used in his clothes was no longer used after the end of the era. Even in the years before the apocalypse, it wasn't a popular style."
As a half-businessman, Bai Chimian is quite familiar with these things.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lingrui pulled out the holographic panel, slid his fingers across it quickly, and soon pulled out a timeline.
N years ago, the Ring Star Arena competition began. Qianqian traveled through time in 2471, and in the same year, an alien species invaded and Zhao Youran died. From 1 to 12 years after the Last Era, another "Qianqian" appeared. In the Last Era, Chen's father developed the [Strategy System]. Twelve years after the Last Era, Qianqian traveled through time and wandered for three years. At this time, the other "Qianqian" disappeared. In the 15th year of the Last Era, Zhao Youran was reborn. Qianqian came to C29 and formed a pact with them. In the same year, several of them passed through the space portal together to participate in the Ring Star Arena. In the 17th year of the Last Era, Qianqian accidentally discovered another "Qianqian".
"Further speculation would involve the future, but I suspect the crucial point in this time loop will be after we leave Earth in a few days. Only by reaching the point where everything began can the loop be perfectly closed."
"Also, there's the alien corpse from a few days ago. I wonder if it has anything to do with Qianqian's unexpected discovery."
Jiang Lingrui paused, then continued, "That hypothetical 'Qian Qian' might be her in the future."
"Sometimes I really want to pry open your head and see what it's made of." Bai Chimian grumbled, "Are you going to tell her this? If these guesses are correct, then all our actions may become the wings that fan the flames of time."
"Well, I promised her I would tell her if anything happened. And history is something we can never change now. As for the future, it has infinite possibilities."
This is a cognitive problem.
So now, no matter what decision they make, it is bound to happen.
"Okay, the one squatting in the corner, go call those two people who are addicted to the game over here." Bai Chimian was not polite at all when he used Wei Jingzhe.
He didn't expect the two people playing games to reply to the message in time.
Wei Jingzhe, who had not said a word for a long time, had been brainstorming in the corner for so long, but his independent thinking still had not made any progress. However, as a top pioneer, he had recorded all the information.
I just don't know when these things will see the light of day again.
Wei Jingzhe didn't know how many times Bai Chimian had called him like this, so he stood up very consciously and obediently went out to call for help.
However, his speed this time was obviously much more active than usual.
He wants to find Qianqian.
Jiang Lingrui was silent for a moment, "Did you bully him?"
This reaction has been squeezed to the point of becoming an instinctive one, and it's obviously not something that can be achieved in just one or two times.
"How can you say that? This is called hiring, no, it's more like paying off a debt. He collected those... random things, some of which were really ugly, so I had someone process them before giving them to him. As for the wages, running errands for me isn't too much, right?"
He is much kinder now, and he treats his family members with respect.
Bai Chimian curled his lips. Many of those designs were drawn by him personally, and he also put in a lot of his own collections. His private money was gradually shrinking.
This reminded Jiang Lingrui of the "rejection" that Wei Jingzhe had learned before, and he said with a distressed look, "You better be careful. After all, I really want to see you get beaten up by Qianqian."
"...When will you hit him?"
Han Zi didn't know when he fell asleep again, and when he heard this, he immediately raised his eyelids that were about to close.
As someone who always protects his own people, Bai Chimian naturally couldn't possibly bully his contract master, the silly rabbit. He rolled his eyes and said, "Go to sleep. How could she possibly beat me?"
"Who hits who?"
As soon as Chen Qian came in and heard this topic, he immediately looked at the three people in the room with curiosity.
Huo Xiao followed closely behind, "Take me with you~"
"Come and take a look at this quickly, and don't ask about irrelevant things." Bai Chimian glanced at the two of them and immediately changed the subject to business.
They were all battle fanatics, and he didn't want to discuss fighting with them.
Chen Qian saw the timeline listed by Jiang Lingrui at a glance, and was immediately attracted to it, and the question of who hit whom was thrown out of her mind.
