Bai Ling stretched out his hand and grabbed a ring in front of him.
In his hand, the gray-blue ring sparkled with light like the sound of flowing water, and under the sunlight it was as light as a ball of white mist.
"This is the 'Mist of Chaos'," Bai Ling stroked the ring, "It looks similar to the 'Nameless Mist'."
interesting.
It’s a pity that the guy in Paradise didn’t know where the ring came from.
In the future when El had not yet arrived, Bering used many means to try to pry what he knew out of Paradise's mouth.
But unfortunately, even though the paradise was torn to pieces and only its shell was left, it still had nothing of value to say.
This made Bai Ling realize that there was probably no point in continuing to increase the strength of this guy.
"He said he found it randomly," Bai Ling sneered, "I don't know how much truth there is in this 'random'."
I'm afraid this is another situation where the reading is "casual" and the writing is "deliberate".
However, it is hard to say whether this situation was designed by Wu Dayou or by time.
No matter who wins the outcome, at least for now it has brought a lot of benefits to Bering.
Apart from anything else, the effect of this ring is really strong.
First, it can restrain one's "existence".
People wrapped in fog seem to be completely integrated into the fog, as if they have become a molecule in the fog and are very difficult to be noticed by others.
Bering tested this thing and came to the conclusion that as long as this thing was turned on, even "disasters" like Red Spider and the Witch would not be able to react to his approach.
This is a powerful assassination weapon, although it has no meaning to Bering at the moment.
He doesn't need to assassinate anyone now.
Secondly, this ring can also absorb the "existence" of other people.
It is just like before when Paradise allowed other people to exchange their existence for currency. Although the exchange process was the "trading" ability that Paradise stole from the god El, the existence exchange itself was the power of this ring.
It can absorb the existence of others and strengthen itself at the same time.
What's the point of growing bigger...
This point has not yet been discovered by Bering.
Even if he took this ring in the future and went around the streets to absorb all the prisoners and villains, he would eventually realize that the mere existence of these people could not satisfy the ring.
If you want to satisfy it, I'm afraid the starting point will have to be "disaster" level.
This made Bai Ling a little troubled.
There are only a few disasters at present. I can't possibly go looking for other disasters to see if they can be sucked up by my ring, right?
Bai Ling felt that if he really did this, the next day the Witch and Red Spider would risk their lives to break their oath and run away from him...
With the brains of the disasters, they probably know what Bering wants to do. At present, there are other people helping Bering to act as a shield, but if he really does this blindly, I am afraid that others will turn their spearheads against him.
So Bai Ling could only seal this thing inside for the time being.
However, despite this, Bering actually still has a guess about the use of this thing.
That is to absorb those white orders in time using this ring.
He had no idea how many Bering personalities were accumulated in Time, but he estimated that it was a lot, a lot.
This ring looks like a bottomless pit that can never be filled, so to some extent, we can consider using those meat-mountain-like Berings to see if we can fill up this hole.
...It always feels a bit weird to say this.
But this is also why Bai Ling felt that his acquisition of this ring was as if it was planned.
It was such a coincidence that just when I didn't know what to do, a solution that seemed to be able to solve the problem came out.
It's really hard not to be suspicious.
With a sigh, Bai Ling put on the ring.
Up to now, everything he wanted to do in Yanzhou City has been completely completed.
The two members of the Countermeasures Bureau have already reminded this and also asked Yang Qianxi for help. Bai Ling estimated that it would not be long before the Yanzhou City Countermeasures Bureau would undergo a major reshuffle and those who had been hidden and replaced would be completely driven out.
And he also found many answers to the mysteries he wanted to understand. Except for some key parts that he has not figured out yet, Bai Ling can be said to have understood almost everything.
However, the more you know, the more shocked you will be by the enemy's terrifying power.
What means can normal life use to challenge the "time" that is so high and can be regarded as a rule?
Even though they now share the same origin and share the same soul called "Beiling", Bailing still finds it almost impossible to truly deal with time.
Apart from anything else, the countless white orders on Time alone are enough to give him a headache.
Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang, not to mention that these "Beilings" have different personalities because of their different future growth trajectories. Just like the Oath Breaker and Wu Dayou, the two people's personalities can almost be said to be two completely different people. Although they are essentially the same, their performances are quite different, so it doesn't make sense that so many Belings on Time are also like cast from the same mold.
These are more than just three cobblers.
Bering conservatively estimated that even if he himself was a pile of shit, time would probably have solidified into a "shit mountain"...
"We still have to see what Hermes can do," Bering sighed, "So this is the trouble with the problem - Hermes is not a pushover."
That guy's goal is to conquer and occupy time itself.
If the present time was a personified "Bering" consciousness, then Bering would be able to guess without even thinking about it that Hermes would definitely do something to him (Bering).
In order to truly take control of time, Hermes will definitely do whatever it takes. And if he finds out that the personality of time is Bering...
That would be a big trouble.
"No matter how much I explain that I have no relationship with time, Hermes will definitely think that I am entangled with the personality of time and will definitely want to make trouble for me."
Bai Ling stroked his chin: "So we need to find help, but we also need to prevent him from finding out... Oh, what a hassle."
It seems that I really need to go to the peninsula.
Only in the place where Hermes was buried can one find the weakness of this crazy guy who is obsessed with seizing time.
I thought so in my heart.
Bai Ling turned his head away.
In his future observation, he clearly saw a person walking towards him and staring at him blankly, as if he was looking at something incredible.
Originally in the future, he thought of many words to make this reunion more mysterious and solemn.
But for some reason, when looking at that person, Bai Ling found that all his words seemed so long-winded.
In fact, there was only one sentence he wanted to say in the end.
That sentence was not only said to that person, but also to Bai Ling himself.
So, when consciousness returns to the real world.
Facing the gaze of the man opposite him, Bai Ling smiled.
"It seems that you have adapted well," Bering stretched out his hand, "at least much better than I thought. This surprises me - it turns out that humans really have the ability to exceed the predetermined future. Everything I have done is not in vain in terms of probability theory.
"At least your existence proves my point: there is no need for other saviors. Those who are enlightened already have the qualifications to become 'heroes'. What we need is not salvation, but the light to guide us forward."
Bai Ling said softly: "You have walked out of the light, and even become the light yourself. This is good, I am relieved."
Hearing his voice, the man opposite subconsciously threw away the gun in his hand.
Her voice was slightly choked: "I... I still have a lot to learn..."
"But I did... did try hard," she sniffed. "I started practicing with my gun and facing monsters alone. It was really hard the first time, and my companions died beside me. But later I got used to it. I don't know... I don't know if this is a good thing. I don't want to watch other people die in front of me and remain indifferent..."
"Then I was sent to another place, because... because everyone was gone, which made me realize that I was weak, very weak... so I had to become stronger, so I have no regrets, even if it hurts or I'm tired... because... because..."
She rubbed her eyes and smiled again: "Because I don't believe you will die. I have been waiting for you to come back so that I can surprise you a little. Even if it's just a little bit - at least it proves that my efforts are useful and I have not let you down..."
Hearing this, Bai Ling took two steps forward and patted her on the head.
"You did a great job," he repeated. "As I said before, I'm relieved and proud that you exist."
"It seems that you have all the strength to join Ming Zhou, the fourth member - Li Jingwen."
Listening to his words, Li Jingwen finally couldn't help it, leaned on Bai Ling's chest, and began to cry silently.
These were tears of joy, tears of seeing Bering return and of her efforts finally being recognized.
If Ding Yan, Ji Qianqin and others are chess pieces laid out by Bailing for the future, then Li Jingwen is the "cornerstone" prepared by Bailing to prove that human beings themselves have the power to save themselves.
Facts have proved that even without the talent of Ding Yan or the background of Ji Qianqin, Li Jingwen can still achieve the same level of success as anyone else with her own abilities.
Especially since she is still so young and has a long future ahead of her.
Thinking of this, Bai Ling pressed her head and smiled.
"Come back with me this afternoon," he said. "You've been staying out all this time, so you probably haven't had a good rest. You've become a little thinner than before."
Li Jingwen heard this and nodded silently.
Letting go of Bai Ling's hand, she rubbed her eyes and said expectantly, "Will you disappear without a word this time?"
Bai Ling smiled, did not answer, and just continued to rub her head.
He had no way of giving an accurate response.
Fighting against time is a shocking thing in itself. He had no way of guaranteeing that he would succeed, and naturally he did not dare to give any response.
So he just avoided the subject: "The car is coming."
Just as he had expected in the future, a moment after Bai Ling finished speaking, a bus rushed into reality from the virtual world and finally stopped not far in front of Bai Ling.
The bright headlights made Bai Ling's pale face look even paler, just like the bright moonlight.
Soon, the car door opened.
A figure jumped out of the car and wrapped around Bai Ling: "Prophet ahh ...
Bai Ling was somewhat helpless about the person who suddenly jumped out, and could only protect her temporarily: "Alright, alright, got it."
Li Jingwen, who was standing next to him, was a little stunned when she saw the person who suddenly jumped out: "Ling?"
After hearing this voice, the person also raised his head from Bai Ling's chest: "Jingwen?!" - After a brief explanation, the two of them finally knew why Bai Ling left suddenly.
Ling: "Some people thought that Ji Qianqin didn't take good care of you and let you run away. Now it seems that she was the one who saved you..."
Li Jingwen: "Yes, although we didn't complain much, I think Sister Ji must be feeling bad..."
Faced with the two people saying this, Bai Ling could only shake his head and sigh.
"We'll go get her later," he said. "We need to get back to Linjiang now."
"So fast?" Ling was stunned.
Bai Ling was grabbing her hand - Ling hadn't jumped off Bai Ling yet: "Of course."
"Not only do we have to go back, we have to go back openly," Bai Ling groaned, "I have an...enemy, and I have to let him know where we are now."
If Bai Ling was worried about what the oath breaker would do before, now he was extremely looking forward to what the oath breaker could do.
After becoming a different species, the oath-breaker's foresight ability has completely lost its effect. In this case, it is Bai Ling who can take advantage of the situation.
Therefore, he urgently needed to let the Oath Breaker know his whereabouts and then see what tricks that guy could come up with.
"It doesn't matter even if there is a ferryman. I just want to see what kind of weapon Time has developed specifically to deal with me," Bai Ling's eyes were deep. "The more He attacks me, the more He is exposed. Even if He is time itself, He is trapped outside the material world and cannot enter. This means that He can only use some special methods to influence this world."
I want to see how powerful time is.
Thinking of this, Bai Ling snapped his fingers.
"Prepare the carriages and horses," he said, "let us return to Linjiang with great fanfare."
