Consciousness returned quickly.
When Bai Ling came to his senses, he found that the soft copy in front of him was covered with dense handwriting.
These words looked like cursive writing. If it weren't for the special characters conceived by Bai Ling himself, he might not have been able to recognize them.
"So, this is what I predicted in the superposition of foresight for the next 20 days?"
Looking at these characters that were so powerful that they seemed to penetrate the paper, Bai Ling couldn't help but frown slightly.
Just as he was about to read on word by word, his expression suddenly changed the next second! Memories and emotions surged toward him like a tide, and in just a moment, they broke through his heart, hit his brain, and made his already exhausted heart and brain throb with pain! However, this was not the worst.
What really made Bai Ling feel painful was his own sea of consciousness.
When he realized something was wrong and began to sink his consciousness into the ocean, he could see clearly what was happening.
At this moment, the ocean seemed to have experienced some unspeakable catastrophe. It was violently undulating and rolling under the gray sky. White foam kept floating to the surface, like burning boiling water! His heart was twitching and his consciousness was churning. Since he came to this world, this was the first time that Bering felt such intense pain! The seawater immersed in his consciousness almost poured back into the sky. In the blink of an eye, it swallowed up Bering's consciousness with a wave! This time it was not an active dive, but a passive sinking to the bottom of the sea. So when Bering passed the limit distance he had reached, that is, the limit of "ten minutes", his body did not stop, but continued to fall like a cannonball. In an instant, he smashed down from the "ten minutes" position and sank suddenly into the deeper sea!
Bai Ling, who was being carried down by the waves, had a slightly changed expression.
The barrier that once limited him to only being able to predict "ten minutes" seemed to be non-existent at this moment, pulling him directly deeper, as if to trap him to death, making him dance with joy but he could only be led forward.
After entering deeper waters, Bai Ling discovered that his body had undergone some new changes.
He was very keenly aware that there were several cracks on his consciousness.
Thin cracks snaked up his arm like streaks of lightning.
At the same time, as he continued to sink, the crack continued to expand. From the previous one centimeter, it slowly expanded to two centimeters, three centimeters...
Does this mean that if I enter the sea that I cannot bear and peek into the distant future, my consciousness will be shattered? Looking at the cracks on his arm, this thought suddenly popped up in Bai Ling's mind.
It seems that the ability to stack foresight is not so easy to deal with.
Although it seemed that Bering had only observed for less than ten minutes, the Sea of Consciousness did not think so. It felt that Bering had reached such a distant future, so it would inevitably drag him to the corresponding future.
If Bering is dragged to the ocean which represents "twenty days" later, he will inevitably face a worse situation than now!
Bai Ling roughly estimated that the distance he had dived so far, if converted into time, was about "one hour". And this one hour had already left several more cracks on his body.
Then if he entered the twenty-day period with his current consciousness, he would definitely explode on the spot! This was almost a foregone conclusion.
You know, twenty days is more than four hundred hours! Just one hour is already so tight. After more than four hundred hours, who knows if there will be any ashes left! After figuring this out, Bai Ling couldn't help but grit his teeth.
He glanced around and realized that the reason why his body could not move was because the white foam was tightly wrapped around his limbs, making him unable to move.
These white foams previously served as a connection between Bering and the sea surface, allowing Bering's consciousness to travel back and forth between the ocean and the sea surface. But now, it is a chain that tightly traps Bering! In this case, it's okay.
After figuring this out, Bai Ling came up with a solution.
Taking a deep breath, he looked up at the sky and shouted, "Zou Ye!"
Although Bering's voice was in the ocean, it was unexpectedly not blocked, but instead was heard from far away.
This is normal. After all, although it is an ocean, it is ultimately constructed by Bering's own consciousness, and the laws of physics do not apply to it.
For example, right now, his words have been heard far above.
After he said this, Bai Ling's body continued to decline rapidly. It would not be long before he crossed the one-hour boundary and entered the "two-hour" sea area!
In the "two hours" of sea, the cracks on his body might not be just this small one on his arm! Fortunately, Bai Ling's voice had just fallen.
The next second, a figure like a swimming fish descended rapidly from above, and in just a few seconds it dived to not far above Bering. Its speed was even faster than Bering himself!
After seeing that figure, Bai Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, a figure stopped in front of Bai Ling.
This person's face was very familiar to Bai Ling, because he had always been in his own sea of consciousness. Once he sank, he would inevitably come face to face with this face.
This was the derivative of the Sin Face, the sculptor who had created the Sin Face and whom even the witch wanted to steal! He was standing in front of Bai Ling, wandering around him like a dog, with no expression on his broken face.
Reaching out and touching the other person's head, Bai Ling said softly: "Help me untie it."
Upon hearing this, Zou Ye quickly took two steps towards Bai Ling, then stretched out his hand and actually untied the white foam behind Bai Ling by a few centimeters!
Although it has not been completely solved and Bering is still declining, at least now Bering has more room to maneuver.
Feeling the chains that bound him loosen a little, Bai Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, my previous attempts were not useless.
Half a month ago, when Zou Ye dived into his sea of consciousness, Bai Ling sank this guy into the ocean.
Later he discovered that when Zou Ye dived, there would be white foam on his body.
After that, he began to try to see if he could dismantle some of the foam chains on Zou Ye, or at least loosen them a little.
The experimental results show that if the person is not entangled in the chains, the chains can be untied somewhat.
Perhaps because the constraints of the Sea of Consciousness are only aimed at that specific person, other people will not be affected much, which can cause corresponding distortions to the bubble chains.
This gave Bering an idea.
Thoughts return to the present.
He glanced at Zou Ye and then smiled at him.
"Come here, I'll loosen the chains on you a little," he said.
Upon hearing this, Zou Ye quickly moved in front of Bai Ling and turned his back to him.
Reaching out his hand, Bai Ling directly grabbed the chains wrapped around Zou Ye's limbs, and then pulled hard.
This time, he directly pulled the chain off Zou Ye! Taking a deep breath, Bai Ling pulled the foam chain directly onto his body.
Then he fastened the loose chain on his body to Zou Ye.
After doing all this, Bai Ling turned his head and kicked Zou Ye hard in the face! With this kick, a big shoe print instantly appeared on Zou Ye's face.
Then in the next second, the white foam chains directly wrapped around Zou Ye's body, and once again took him to a more distant sea like a cannonball!
The chain that originally belonged to Zou Ye was carrying Bai Ling, floating up quickly and steadily.
It was like the two of them had switched gears. Zou Ye's chain would bring him up, so Bai Ling borrowed his chain to float above the sea of consciousness. Zou Ye used Bai Ling's chain and happily sank to twenty days later...
This is what Bering had in mind.
A similar replacement method had been tried before using Zou Ye’s soul, and the experimental result was that the two parties could be replaced.
So this is why Bai Ling kept Zou Ye until now.
Half a month ago, after Zou Ye invaded his sea of consciousness, Bai Ling did not kill him immediately, but kept him.
It was because Bai Ling realized that Zou Ye’s soul might be useful.
On one hand it is research, on the other hand it is a stand-in.
For example, if the current situation happens, Zou Ye will be the "substitute" who replaces Bai Ling.
So Bai Ling did not eliminate Zou Ye immediately.
But to be honest, Zou Ye is actually not much different from "death".
Because he had invaded the ocean too far, he had lost his own personality and consciousness. Now he was just an empty shell with instincts, just like a bus and the nameless fog, without his own consciousness.
Bai Ling took a lot of effort to enter his name and some simple instructions.
It seems that the effect is quite good now.
At least Zou Ye did take his place and dived all the way to "twenty days later".
As for Zou Ye, would he develop cracks all over his body and explode to death like Bai Ling after twenty days of infiltration?
It would be better to wait until he floats up after twenty days, and then Bailing would go and see whether to collect his body or put new chains on him.
After rising continuously from the sea area for "two hours", after a period of time, Bering finally floated above the sea level.
At this moment, the sky of the Sea of Consciousness was still iron gray, as dark as before a storm, and the foam in the entire ocean was stirred together like boiling water.
Standing above the sea level, Bai Ling pondered for a moment.
Then let the consciousness leave the ocean and return to the real world.
The moment Bai Ling regained consciousness, his head slammed onto the table with a thud.
"I c..."
Bai Ling was about to curse subconsciously.
But after his forehead and the table were loosened and even a muffled sound was heard, Bai Ling realized that he didn't seem to feel any pain.
At this time he realized again that he was like a corpse and was not afraid of pain.
The previous heart and brain twitching were special cases, probably due to excessive use of the predictive ability, which fed back to the soul and caused "phantom pain".
His nervous system is almost shut down, so how can he have any ability to feel?
Rubbing his head, Bai Ling climbed up from the table with a depressed expression on his face.
"I should use this ability less often in the future," he thought with lingering fear, "If I hadn't had a dog, I would have been dragged down."
Although he seemed to have only predicted ten minutes, in fact he still saw the future twenty days later. Perhaps in the judgment of the sea of consciousness, he was forced to dive to twenty days later.
This is also normal, after all, the ability to predict is itself a means of ignoring time.
Time is a closed loop, which is true not only for Bering, but also for the sea of consciousness.
Therefore, this kind of opportunistic approach will probably not work in the future.
You have to see your own dog... Bailing is talking about Zou Ye, whether he can still be used when floating up.
If you can, you can probably try it one or two more times.
If that doesn't work, then even if Bai Ling is beaten to death, he would never dare to continue like this.
Too dangerous.
Thinking of this, Bai Ling couldn't help but frown: "But I didn't expect that something like this would happen in the future..."
As his consciousness subsided, bits of the future crept into his mind.
He clearly saw Qi Guang's painful and anxious face.
These were just fragments of time, and Bai Ling did not understand their meaning. But after comparing them with what he had written on the soft copy, Bai Ling finally understood what had happened.
There was a big problem during the joint military exercise.
Most of the people who participated in the exercise died, not just those from Bering's country, but also those from other countries. For example, it seems that all the people who went to the island countries died.
Even Qi Guang's side, whose losses were slightly less, lost many people.
For example... the entire daylight.
Looking at the contents copied on the soft cover, Bai Ling could not help but remain silent.
He felt somewhat complicated.
The organization that I worked so hard to build would be almost destroyed in a few days?
And this was the result of him trying to squeeze them into the joint military exercise? Thinking of this, Bailing found it absurd.
He couldn't help but sigh: "This is really..."
Shaking his head, Bai Ling thought to himself: "It seems that the future has really changed a lot."
On the original timeline, the joint military exercise did not encounter so many problems.
If so many people really died, then the authorities would report some of it. Not necessarily all of it, but at least they would mention it.
However, the exercise recorded in the diary did not encounter any problems at all. It started perfectly and ended successfully.
Now it seems that the future has been greatly changed because of me.
Staring at the soft face, Bai Ling thought of Qi Guang's gray face.
This really makes me feel a little guilty.
Qi Guang must be feeling very uncomfortable with the predicted future.
Although his reason told him that he should not blame Bering, his emotion made him want an explanation from Bering.
Coupled with witnessing the deaths of his students, friends and relatives, he is probably the most distressed person in the superimposed future timeline.
Sighing again, Bai Ling turned to the last page of the soft-cover copy.
“Gone?!”
He looked at the last content of the soft copy and couldn't help feeling a little dazed.
It is obvious that my future self did not completely record all the important things, so a lot of things are written in a messy way, or even without a beginning or an end.
This is normal. After all, Bering's prediction cycle is only ten minutes. After ten minutes, no matter how much he writes, Bering will not be able to see what happened before ten minutes.
And in ten minutes, there is not much that can be written...
No matter how fast a person writes, if he is limited to ten minutes, he probably won't be able to write down many things in detail.
Looking at the soft copy, Bai Ling couldn't help but frown: "There is a lot of very important information on it. It seems that I still have some ideas for my future self."
But this alone is not enough.
There is still something missing... something more crucial.
For example, the solution, the key to breaking the deadlock, and the key to open the box!
Watch all the way to the end.
When I saw the last line.
When his eyes fell on the last paragraph, Bai Ling's eyes moved slightly.
His brows finally relaxed.
Putting the pen on the table, Bai Ling couldn't help but smiled and said, "That's what I said..."
How could I possibly be a riddler to myself?
The last line of words clearly read "traitor" and several names behind it! He may be a riddler to others, but to himself, Bai Ling will definitely make all the important things clear at the beginning!
Looking at those names, Bai Ling's mouth curled up slightly.
He looked at the soft copy, chuckled and said, "Does this count as...getting the script for the final episode?"
If that's the case, then it's really interesting.
The rats in the gutter would never dream that they were lurking in the shadows, hiding in the abyss, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
There was a pair of deeper eyes, staring at them in the obscure mist, and taking in everything about them.
This is the "prophet".
Someone who has finished reading the script in advance.
