The message she shared with you was entirely sincere, without a single lie, yet you remained wary and unable to believe her.
[Until this future ends, your memories will be stored in that doll.]
When the doll's first words are, "The message and I had a friendly chat," you almost instantly want to dismiss it, fearing you'll be chased by the old woman again.
However, you persevered and used the second puppet to enter the future once more.
[The second future ends in the blink of an eye; you then observe the memory of the second doll.]
[30,000 hours.]
This means it's basically safe.
Since the information revealed her principles, you've considered two possibilities.
One possibility is that she genuinely wants to reconcile; the other is that she's pretending and preparing to deceive you.
Therefore, after one future scenario ends, when your doll says something like "The message wants to make peace with you," you will enter a second future, where a second doll will help you make the judgment.
[In the second future, you will wait in place, pushing your reaction speed to the limit. You will self-destruct immediately upon receiving any information. This will shorten the second doll's memory bar significantly; otherwise, it will continue indefinitely until 30,000 hours later.]
[Actually, this double-detection mechanism also has many vulnerabilities (which I won't go into detail about here), but if this method is broken, setting up hundreds or thousands of layers of detection is practically useless.]
[After all, the other party is an information master.]
[The power of information is truly unpredictable. If two layers of defense still fail, you might as well just commit suicide on the spot and let the main body leave this mess to Number 15 to handle.]
[Once safety is confirmed, you access the memories of Doll #1.]
[In order to ease tensions, Balala didn't leave any hidden agendas during your first real interaction; she simply delivered information and made a gesture of goodwill.]
She deduced the truth about the "simulation" and revealed many other secrets of the Dao Lords, including their various abilities.
You don't know how many words are true and how many are false, nor do you know if the external entity can see any of it.
"Yes, you can."
"Should we choose to believe her?"
"Is she not just trying to confuse me, but attempting to bypass the simulator and deceive the real entity outside?"
"Want to catch them all in one fell swoop?"
"..."
You retain a memory of your conversation with him, but you didn't rashly go to keep your appointment.
"If I had truly believed her, I might have lost control of myself."
You return to the source of light and dust, to the many universes you have experienced.
[You seem to have forgotten the place of origin, and you seem to have forgotten that you still have millions of Dao principles that have not been replicated.]
[You've only been in this simulation for a million years, and the time you'll spend returning to your true nature in the foreseen future is only a few hundred million years.]
Of course, the time you experience in the future will be much longer, possibly trillions of years or more, since you can foresee the future countless times every second, and each time you can stay in the future for more than three years.
[Now, aside from returning to your true nature and ensuring your own safety, you no longer frequently foresee the future. Instead, you leisurely wander and explore the boundless void.]
[Counting from the calendar at the time of your birth, you are ten million years old.]
You are one hundred million years old.
You are a billion years old.
The Source of Light and Dust was not destroyed.
You're a billion years old.
Time keeps flowing.
[Your true nature has increased from seventy quadrillion times at the beginning of this simulation to ten quadrillion times.]
[Your external essence has finally changed, reaching approximately eight hundred trillion times.]
[Yes, because of the more than three years of future foresight and the weekly return to truth, although your dual essences increase by the same amount each year as shown on the panel, the rate of improvement of your true essence is more than a hundred times higher than that of your external essence.]
You are hundreds of times stronger than you were billions of years ago.
"But this kind of improvement is still too slow."
You sighed softly.
"The essence I've gained over billions of years... is merely equivalent to a Dao Lord releasing their authority for two seconds at a normal pace, nothing more."
"If I want the Dao Lord to unleash his power for even one more second, I need to endure hundreds of billions of years. If I want the Dao Lord to unleash his power for even two more seconds, I need to wait for hundreds of billions of years..."
The power of Dao Lords is indeed limited, but even if it is limited... it is still far beyond your reach!
Billions of years have passed since the simulation began.
[Trillion years.]
This is equivalent to the time span of a universe from the Big Bang until its final moments.
[Starting from the universes you have blessed, the number of cosmic lords has expanded and exploded wildly.]
[For countless trillions of years.]
You remain carefree, content to simply drift through life.
This is the most fulfilling time you've ever had.
"You're not the one who's fulfilled, are you?"
"Emmm... the peak combat power I can unleash right now, considering my time in space, the 1250 days of reincarnations, and the 359 descents I've accumulated myself, all factors combined..."
[You calculated it based on the information Balala gave you from that doll.]
"Perhaps this will allow the Dao Lord to unleash the power of Kunmiao?"
