Chapter 55 Don't Open That Door (4,000 votes requested)
Watch out for Partridge?
Ron's pupils suddenly contracted!
Why did the previous owner of this body suddenly mention this name?
Partridge replaced Archibald, invented ancient characters, and was revered as a sage. Ron could be sure that Partridge was the product of the repairman's convergence of the world line.
Given Ron's position, it was only natural for him to be careful of the repairman's creations.
But, Saint Patrick, he existed thousands of years ago, could he still be alive?
Ron could understand that some powerful old monsters could survive for hundreds or even thousands of years, but history books clearly recorded that Patridge had died a long time ago at the age of 193... It was even said that Patridge had an extremely grand funeral.
According to historical records, five kings and seven popes personally carried Patrick's coffin.
There were also thousands of masters and countless well-known scholars participating in the funeral.
Could it be that Partridge was just faking his death and was actually still alive?
But it goes without saying that it is difficult to fake your death in front of so many experts.
Why did that mysterious old man want to convey this message to me through the original owner of this body?
How far into the future did that guy see?
For a moment, Ron felt an inexplicable fear.
This mysterious old man...
On the soul-ferrying boat, the soul of Celeos is waiting for him.
The mysterious gaze you felt when you touched the Chaos Slate?
In the Church of the Dawn Goddess, the gaze and entanglement of the Dawn Goddess!
This gave him a terrifying feeling as if he was completely seen through.
Ron didn't like this feeling.
What surprised Ron even more was, what had the original owner of this body experienced... no, what had he known that made him let go of his resentment, his resistance to fate, and calmly accept the outcome of being replaced?
Ron could even feel grateful from these words.
An indescribable feeling of fear, as if there were countless hairy bugs and cockroaches crawling behind my neck and inside my clothes.
Ron continued to flip through his notes silently, and the records at the back became more and more confusing.
It is obvious that the original owner of the body has been increasingly eroded.
He could hardly bear it any longer. The records in his notebook were filled up crazily, and he could even see scarlet color on the paper occasionally.
Unconsciously, Ron turned to the end of the notebook. The handwriting on the last page suddenly became normal: "I don't know who will replace me and become the owner of this body. I wish you all the best."
"There is only darkness before my eyes, I can't see any hope!"
"I'm not a very strong person. Maybe you can do it. Who knows?"
"Perhaps, you are just a pathetic toy like me."
"We are just unlucky wretches."
"But...future Ron...you will kill everyone, including yourself."
The familiar words made Ron's heart tremble. The content recorded in the other new notebook obviously started from here. The original owner of the body seemed to want to record more, but had lost the power.
Ron stroked the pages of the book with his fingertips, and his eyes shifted quietly to the back with trembling and fear.
New text appears before my eyes.
"Also, don't..."
"Open...that...door!!!"
Bang! Ron couldn't help himself after all, his hand shook and the notebook fell to the ground.
What does "Don't open that door again" mean? Which door? Could it be a special mission issued by the system Elsa, which door will be opened after completing all the strategy tasks?
Why don't you open it again?
Again? In an instant, countless questions emerged in Ron's mind.
Even with Ron's temperament, he couldn't calm down at this time. His mind was like a storm. He had never thought that the notes of the original owner of this body would bring such a big impact.
Could it be that the original owner of this body had entered that door before? Otherwise, why would he use the word "again"? Did he also have a system like himself? Impossible, at least, the original owner of this body did not complete the thirteen strategy tasks... Perhaps, there is more than one way to open that door? Could it be related to the Chaos Slate? Or maybe it's not the same door? There are other doors?
But why was there no memory of the original owner of the body opening or even entering the door in his mind? Even if the memory he inherited was incomplete, there was not even a trace of residue, as if it was forcibly cleared by some mysterious force.
What did the original owner of the body see behind the door? What did he hear? What did he know? Was it because Ron had entered that door that he felt hopeless about the future and was glad that his existence was replaced by someone else? What kind of scene was that that could crush a person's will to such an extent? Which one should he believe, the system or the last words of the original owner? For a moment, Ron fell into unprecedented confusion, and his body was constantly squirming.
Fortunately, there was thick fog outside, so even if the notebook fell, Agnes would not notice it.
After a long time, Ron finally squatted down slowly and picked up the notebook again with trembling fingers.
He took a deep breath and looked at Agnes who was more than ten meters away. He tried to adjust his throat so that his voice would not tremble. Soon, a deep voice slowly spread across the Soul Ferry: "Agnes, you did a good job."
He is only a four-star extraordinary person... What is extraordinary? It means being a little stronger than an ordinary mortal.
Who is Agnes? One of the four pillars of the Eternal Freedom Sect, she is at the top of the pyramid of the entire Granville Kingdom, and her strength is so strong that she can even leave a legend.
It was a bit strange for him, a transcendent four-star, to praise a legendary master in the tone of a superior or an elder.
Although he felt a little weird in his heart, it did not affect Ron's performance.
Agnes was a little happy, she giggled a little, her face flushed, and her originally tense body seemed to relax a little.
Ron's voice, far from being awkward at all, even became more ethereal and mysterious, with just the right tone: "Agnes, I have another task for you."
"I will follow the Captain's orders!" Agnes replied obediently.
"Protect someone!"
"who?"
"Ron!"
Agnes was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the Captain would ask her to protect the ancient scholar named Ron.
To be honest, Agnes had no interest in protecting a strange man.
She would rather water the flowers in the small room and wait for the Captain's call.
Maybe it was because Ron acted serious and deep but not violent, and the previous compliments also made Agnes a little bolder: "Captain, I'm curious, why do you care so much about that Ron?"
Agnes knew that she would not be punished for asking the Captain a question.
Why? That's me, I don't care who I care about.
Ron complained in his heart, but of course, he couldn't say this to anyone else.
This question is not easy to explain. Should I continue to pretend to be mysterious and keep silent? But as someone who worships Agnes, wouldn't it be bad if I didn't give a reason?
Ron didn't know that the brief moment of his thinking had already made Agnes' heart skip a beat. Her beautiful and plump body subconsciously tensed up, and her originally rosy cheeks turned slightly pale.
Agnes was scared, wondering if her question had angered the Captain?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
At this moment, Ron's voice finally came: "Agnes... don't underestimate Ron."
All in all, just praise yourself a little. You can't belittle yourself, right?
"Ron has the ability to change the future, and I don't want to see his soul here so soon."
Hiss! Agnes was shocked by the Captain's evaluation of Ron. Women are the best at imagining things. Ron could never have imagined that his slight compliment to himself would cause a storm in Agnes' mind.
Possessing the ability to change the future? In thousands of years, how many people have been praised like this? Archibald the Blasphemer?
Sage Partridge?
The most important thing is the last half of the sentence, don't want to see Ron's soul here so soon? Doesn't that mean that Ron is qualified to board this ship?
The last soul to appear here was the God of Eternal Freedom, Celeos...
Agnes felt goose bumps all over her body. Could it be that in the eyes of the mysterious and supreme Captain, Ron, the ancient character scholar, was qualified and had the potential to become a god?
Isn't this too exaggerated? Agnes was deeply shocked and couldn't recover for a long time.
On the other hand, Agnes's face puffed up slightly because the Captain attached so much importance to Ron. She was actually a little unhappy in her heart. It was obvious that she was summoned by the Captain earlier than Ron, and she was the one who worked for the Captain.
Ron blushed in the gray fog. It was a bit embarrassing to praise himself. Fortunately, the gray fog covered Agnes's expression. After a short pause, Ron continued, "Agnes, remember my words. Ron is crucial to whether your fate can be changed. Your fate has long been entangled with each other."
He looked down at the thread of Agnes' destiny wrapped around his fingers, and realized that this was the truth.
Agnes had a sense of absurdity.
She had never met Ron, and even now she didn't know what Ron looked like. How did their fates become intertwined? Intertwined?
These two words always feel a bit ambiguous.
It was as if Ron was her husband, and King Holt was not.
However, no matter what, the mysterious Captain attached so much importance to Ron that Agnes became a little curious about this man whose fate was intertwined with hers.
The captain's voice came again from the front:
"Ron is planning to kill Herman soon."
"Who?" Agnes tilted her head.
Herman? I don't know him! "The only son of A.L.O. Montgomery."
Agnes nodded. She didn't know who Herman was, but she had heard of the name Apu. He was very brave to try to kill the only son of the powerful vice-pope of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn.
Ron also took great pains to kill Herman.
He knew this wasn't a fight between him and Herman, it was a fight between him and the repairman.
Through communication with Celeos, Ron vaguely felt that although the Repairman was a very special existence, like Celeos, he should not have the ability to directly interfere with the lower world. He could only make the direction of the world line completely in line with his ideas through deliberate design, the most accurate calculations, and the use of various chess pieces...
What Ron did was to constantly add variables beyond calculation to this formula.
According to Ron's calculations, the strongest obstacle he might encounter in killing Herman would be Herman's father, Vice Pope Apu.
He lacks a master who can directly fight against Apu.
In fact, the most suitable person is the Grand Saint Christian of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn. As Apu's wife, she must dislike Hermann, an illegitimate child, but he has no intersection with the Grand Saint now.
Most importantly, Ron didn't really want to get in touch with the Great Saint, after all, her personality was a bit twisted...
In the game "Goddess x Black Beast", any player who dares to attack the Great Saint Christian will be called a ruthless person and will be cruel to himself.
Even the big boss who had taken away 69 wives and was praised for having the spirit of Cao Wei did not dare to make a move on Christian.
Therefore, Agnes in front of him is definitely the most suitable and only candidate.
"Keep an eye on Ap Montgomery, and if he tries to attack, stop him," Ron said quietly.
Agnes' eyes were filled with more admiration and respect.
Mr. Captain, it seems that you have already seen through all the changes in the future.
He is like the greatest chess player in the world, manipulating the movement of every chess piece on the chessboard of Dusk Continent, influencing the world and leading it to the outcome he wants.
And it might be her honor to be noticed by the Captain and become an important chess piece.
After all, in this huge world, with billions of intelligent beings, how many are qualified to be chess pieces? Almost all living beings just spend their lives in a muddle.
But soon, Agnes hesitated again: "Captain, it's not that I don't want to, but... my situation is a bit special. I can't leave the palace casually."
Ron smiled, and a deep, ethereal voice came from the thick fog again:
"No problem!"
"Tell Holt 473 one thing..."
"You don't want people to know what happened in the back mountain, do you?"
