Bering opened his eyes again and looked at the witch and Red Spider in front of him.

At this moment, the Witch and Starscream were looking at him with uneasiness on their faces.

When Bai Ling opened his eyes, Red Spider came up to him nervously and pinched his arm twice.

While pinching her, he said to the witch, "Great, it's cold, dead!"

After hearing this, Bai Ling looked down at Red Spider and seriously considered whether he should make this damn thing into a lantern and light it up to the sky.

The witch also breathed a sigh of relief.

She said nothing, but moved a tape recorder that looked quite old and had the logo of a famous band engraved on it to Bai Ling.

After seeing the recorder, Bai Ling's eyes gradually became serious.

He subconsciously pressed the recorder in front of him.

After waiting for about two seconds, a tired voice came from the recorder: "Good afternoon, Prophet."

Hearing this voice, Bai Ling remained silent and said nothing.

Meanwhile, the voice in the recorder continued, "It seems like you have figured out our true nature. Yes, we are actually fish swimming in the ocean of time. Because of the nature of time, when we swim above the shore, we will become what we are like above. And when we swim downstream, we will become what we are like downstream. Tsk, that sounds a bit disgusting."

While complaining, the person in the recorder continued to speak: "Memory is the driving force for us to swim forward. This can also be seen from that ocean - the 'sea of ​​consciousness'. Memory is of course the key to it. Once you return to the time period before waking up, then I will come out."

"It sounds amazing, right? I think it's amazing too. I have to say that the feeling of coming back to life is very special. I had lost consciousness, but soon my eyes became bright again. When I woke up, I found two beautiful ladies in front of me. Ha, you are really..."

Listening to the words in the recorder, Starscream glanced at the witch, and then poked Bering.

There was a hint of pride in her expression.

Bai Ling just glanced at her, said nothing, and continued to listen.

Bering on the radio said tiredly: "Of course, I don't envy you at all. Because you met these two guys, which means you are probably in the middle and back position. This is a very critical node. It can be said that this is where I failed."

"You probably understand that our journey is essentially a cycle and repetition. From the dream of the oath-breaker, you can probably guess that with a gunshot, a new 'prophet' was born. Then everything returns to the starting point, and we start a new round again..."

"This is the most terrifying thing about time. Our lives are reset over and over again. Of course, you don't have to doubt whether this is in the 'future'. After all, you already understand one of the most basic elements of a prophet."

Hearing this, Bai Ling's lips moved slightly.

His voice and the voice in the recorder sounded at the same time: "'There is no way I can continue to try to use precognition in the prophet's foreknowledge'!"

After the words fell, the recorder had a little smile on its face: "Yes, that's it. Even time must be obeyed. Or rather, it is precisely because it is the law of time itself that it needs to be obeyed even more. Of course, the specific reason will be clear to you when you reach Tianyuan."

"I won't go into too much detail about other things. I can only say that because I used some tricks, your action curve is completely different from mine. After all, at your age, I could only use my foresight ability with trepidation. There was nothing I could do about it. Who said that this ability comes at a staggering price?"

"But you are better. I think you can use your prophecy ability unlimited times, right? Ha, this is really enviable. If that's the case, then you probably haven't encountered any setbacks so far, and you may even have made it all the way. Because you have many more opportunities to try and fail, which is much better than me and us."

Bai Ling's voice in the recording was bitter: "Before you, our actions were always small-scale and could only cover part of the target. Every time we use our abilities, our chances do not increase, but decrease. I don't know how many people you know, but you probably have contact with Ding Yan, Ji Qianqin, Wang Weizheng, Qi Guang and others, right? Ah, do you have cigarettes? I feel like smoking a little."

After a few seconds, it was probably the witch who was passing a cigarette to Bering in the recorder.

With the sound of a lighter and a few "clicks", Bering in the recorder exhaled lightly, as if with the turbid smell of tobacco: "They are all dead. In the end, only one Weaver is left. Even if he is not dead, he will be captured, tortured, replaced and superseded by others. You know, it is just a piece of program code, which is easy to modify."

"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, the people we have to deal with are not simple. Let's talk about Madam Pale, who you just dealt with not long ago. Because my ability to predict the future is very poor, I don't know at all about Madam Pale's connection with the Oath Breaker, which resulted in the death of 763 of the 800 people from the Countermeasures Bureau, Xun Mo was seriously injured and dying, and Ming Zhou was almost dead. Lin Ju was captured and reformed, and his life was worse than death. Ji Qianqin died because of her lack of strength and fell into Madam Pale's hideout on the first day in Xinhai City."

"As for the others, they didn't live long either," Bering said in the recorder. "The battle with the Oathbreaker was a piece of shit. I couldn't defeat him. He was half of the Origin, and beating me was like playing. If He hadn't had other plans, I would have died on the spot."

"Then I was trapped in the narrow space of time. Of course, unlike you, I didn't meet that crazy woman. Because I'm not her 'destiny', you know, I'm still a human being, and I can't avoid death like you. So I was about to die before I met her, but then I was pulled out."

"Of course you would never imagine that the person who got me out was the Oath Breaker. To be honest, I don't know what she wants to do, but I know at least one thing - she is not our friend, but she may not be our enemy either."

"Oh, it looks like time is almost up, so I'll just tell you the important things," Bai Ling said in the recorder with a smile, "Of course, nothing is important. After all, you may have gone further than I have, so whatever I say will become clear to you soon."

"In short, the important point is... you must be careful of Nostradamus," the voice gradually became serious, "He is different from the other two losers standing next to you. He... is very scary. And his goal is to completely destroy time and abuse time."

"Our goal is to repair the laws of time, but He intends to completely destroy time. So there is an irreconcilable contradiction between you and Nostradamus - this is why He wants to kill all the prophets."

"Well, I guess you are not interested in my subsequent annihilation or how I was toyed with by those monsters," Bai Ling said calmly in the recorder. "In short, you are much luckier than me, but at the same time, your path is also more difficult than mine. After all, no one has ever been dead like you before, haha."

"That's all I have to say. If I say any more, you'll wake up. Don't wake me up next time. I'm afraid you don't know. I'm telling you this. There's not a single part of my body that's intact right now. It hurts so much to talk to you right now. Please, don't wake me up again. I've become a deserter. Don't ask me to come back and serve again!"

"Finally, I'll give you one more piece of advice," the recording said. "After you come out of Tartarus, don't reveal your information to the country right away. The All-Knowing Society is watching you now. If they know your current condition, you will definitely die."

He said slowly: "After all, I am good at this and I know it better than anyone else."

As he spoke, Bering in the recorder cursed: "Damn it, do you want to kill the witch and Red Spider? Seeing your faces gives me a headache, how about you discuss it and chop off your heads in front of me? Don't worry, this is the future, it won't be a problem..."

Soon, the sound in the recorder disappeared.

Only Bai Ling stood there, deep in thought.

"Just as I thought," he said, "my current state can actually be reversed. In other words, part of the power of time actually lies with me."

This seems to be different from Hermes' stealing of power.

If he had to say it, Bai Ling felt that he was probably a type of being similar to the "Apostle of Time".

For unknown reasons, the law of time bestowed a portion of its power on Bai Ling, and this power turned Bai Ling into a messy time creature.

As a result, as his memory changes, his body will also change differently.

It sounds powerful, but it's actually not very useful. It can only be used in certain situations, such as when fighting against someone who also has the power of time, to catch the opponent off guard.

But apart from that, Bai Ling still collected a lot of useful information from the recording.

"The All-Knowing Society seems to be more troublesome than I thought. According to what I said, he was dealt with by the All-Knowing Society after he returned. Does this mean that there are spies of the All-Knowing Society in the country? Is it the Countermeasures Bureau or another organization? Or, the people that the All-Knowing Society relies on to monitor others... are not undercover agents?"

"Nostradamus, it seems, is not just a lackey of the Oathbreaker. He may be as powerful as Hermes, so you must be careful when dealing with him."

Thinking of this, Bai Ling groaned for a moment, then said to Red Spider and the Witch, "Thank you both for your assistance."

"Well, let's meet in reality."

As soon as these words were spoken, Red Spider and the Witch were slightly startled.

Starscream reacted the fastest, and immediately yelled, "Great, this is your future again! Oh, it's such a shame when I think about it! I spent so much time and heard nothing! No, you must tell these secrets when you go back! Swear now!"

The witch was thoughtful: "So that's how it is. Right now, I exist in the future? Ha, this is a very interesting existential question. To paraphrase Descartes, absolute existence is the basis of all objective laws... It seems that you are the absolute will? No, this is a bit idealistic..."

Amid the two people's whispers, Bai Ling slowly closed his eyes.

Wait until he opens his eyes again.

The witch was looking at him blankly: "What happened?"

Bai Ling: "No, nothing."

After thinking for a while, he said to the witch: "Thank you, Miss Chris."

Witch: “????”

She looked at Bai Ling in confusion, totally bewildered.

After coming out of the room, Bai Ling looked at Red Spider who was shaking his head and said to her, "Let's go."

"We are leaving Tartarus." Bering's expression was gentle.

Starscream put down the comic and shrugged at him: "Understood. But speaking of which..."

She pointed at the witch behind her: "Are you going to take her away too?"

Hearing this, Bai Ling glanced at the witch carrying large and small bags, and couldn't help but feel a little confused: "Ms. Chris..."

The witch laughed awkwardly: "Haha..."

She said with some caution: "It suddenly occurred to me that it would be safer if I went with you..."

That's not the case.

One was an ultimate monster who had fought the Oath Breaker head-on and won, and the other was a pure "disaster", completely different from himself, the "disaster shame"...

No, how can I be considered the "shame of disaster"? At most, I am a goalkeeper!

As the witch thought this, she slapped her face and threw away all the words that were not in her favor.

And Bai Ling thought for a moment and nodded slowly: "I understand, I have no objection."

He will definitely go to the peninsula in the future.

And now, the witch seems to be one of the few people in the world who knows the Peninsula best - after all, she is a personal witness of the Peninsula incident that year.

If nothing unexpected happens, Bai Ling may still need to rely on the witch's identity as "Judge".

It would be best if you could use this identity to make Nostradamus extremely anxious.

Thinking of this, Bai Ling felt that there would be no harm in letting the witch follow him for a while.

At least he was watching. If the witch had nothing better to do and wanted to kill someone for fun, Bering could still hang her up on a lantern and light it up in the sky, and then stare at her from a distance with Red Spider, right? So the witch seemed to be able to accept it.

But Red Spider seemed unable to accept it.

"Go away, Chris," Starscream's skin gradually turned red, "Don't you already have a way to reach Origin yourself?! Or do you want to take me away too?!"

Facing the Red Spider, the witch was not so good-tempered.

She smiled faintly and said, "I don't covet the barbarians' actions, don't worry, Qiluo."

Rubbing Red Spider's head, the witch said mischievously, "Besides, I can help you with your daily life - do you want your sister to teach you how to change your diaper? Oh, do you eat green peppers? If you don't, I'll put more in your bowl next time."

"Ah!" Red Spider screamed, his eyes spitting fire, and his skin was almost uncontrollably cracking.

The witch also sneered, and countless dark shadows appeared under her wide skirt.

The two people each occupy half of the space, usually the fiery red and the other half the cold black.

In front of them, Bai Ling was holding a map and carefully drawing every stroke.

"If we can't go back directly, it looks like we have to go to the island country first." Bai Ling stroked his chin and nodded slightly.
