Chapter 163 Isn’t it cute?
"Dr. Xie, you are too kind to me. I may just want Xihen to live without any warning." This is what Lou Su is thinking now. He doesn't want to care about other people's life or death at all. He just wants Chu Xihen to live forever.
"Mr. Lou, there's no need to belittle yourself. Even if your starting point is only Mr. Chu, but the premise of your hope that he can survive is that this world must exist. Otherwise, if he is the only one who survives, does that mean he is alive?" Xie Ling asked.
Now is the end of the world. Regardless of whether Lou Su's original intention of using time to go back was for one person or for everyone, he has created an opportunity for them now.
The most important thing right now is that they must seize this opportunity, otherwise they will just repeat the same mistakes if they try again.
"I didn't expect Dr. Xie to be such an optimistic person." Chu Xihen said with emotion.
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows shamelessly and looked at him, "Isn't he cute?"
"Isn't it the same for Mr. Chu?" Xie Ling ignored Xiao Yan. "You are a game completer, so you should know more information than us, right? Maybe you have already learned from Xiao Chou that this world will only go to destruction, but don't you still want to live with hope in your heart?"
Although he knew that going forward would lead to death, he still insisted on moving forward.
Lou Su looked at Chu Xihen. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes seemed to be asking Chu Xihen if there was any other information he hadn't told him.
Chu Xihen held his hand with his backhand, "Yes, Xiao Chou did say that. Didn't I say that my wish for passing the level was to have a healthy body, but it was rejected by it?"
"What?" Xiao Yan was surprised. "The wish to clear a level can be rejected? So it's a scam game?"
"You should have thought of the reason for its rejection. Then I made a wish to make the coming apocalypse disappear, but it was also rejected. It told me that the apocalypse would not disappear, and that the world would be destroyed two years after entering the apocalypse. So I could only do the next best thing and make a wish to delay the coming of the apocalypse for two years." Although Chu Xihen had already told Lou Su and the others about this matter, this time it was more comprehensive.
The first time he didn't tell Xiao Chou that the world would be destroyed two years after the end of the world, he didn't want to cause psychological pressure on the kids in the team. It's good to live day by day now. When the day of despair really comes, at least they can look back on their past and die without regrets.
"The world will be destroyed in two years?" Jin Hang asked in disbelief.
Xiao Yan taunted, "Are you regretting not listening to the survivors now? I told you two years ago that the end of the world would come and you had to prepare for it. But those damn old guys always thought that the survivors were crazy. If I remember correctly, Captain Jin thought the same thing at the time, right?"
Actually, it is understandable. Two years ago, the world was at peace and prosperity. If someone suddenly came out and said that the end of the world was coming soon and everyone should stock up on supplies and build fortresses to welcome the end of the world, everyone would think that this person was a lunatic.
Although there have been rumors everywhere on the Internet in the past two years, very few people believe them. When the end of the world comes, it will be too late to regret.
Jin Hang lowered his head and said nothing.
Xiao Yan continued to talk to Chu Xihen and the others, "Two years ago, the senior executives didn't want to give us any resources. It was Dr. Xie who overcame all odds and put a dagger to his father's neck to get the underground laboratory we have today. Otherwise, there wouldn't be the current Bureau of Superpowers. We would all be ruined when the end of the world came!"
"It's not that exaggerated. They just don't want things to get out of hand and cause unnecessary panic." Chu Xihen said Xie Ling was optimistic, but in fact he was a complete pessimist, otherwise he would not have believed without hesitation that the so-called end of the world would come.
It's just that he likes to control the development of things in his own hands. Since he knows that the end of the world is bound to come, he will do his best to make himself calmer when he is in the end of the world.
"If the end of the world really comes, will we be scared enough?" Xiao Yan asked.
Gu Xingxie, who had been listening quietly, suddenly spoke up: "The leader's decision is not wrong. Sometimes the panic of the masses is more terrible than the end of the world. Even if everyone knows that the end of the world is coming, they cannot avoid the end of death. This is not the end of the world in the traditional sense. Even if you hide in a copper wall or iron wall that is impervious to swords and guns and immune to alien species, you will still be pulled into the dungeon."
"Mr. Gu is indeed insightful." Xie Ling praised him generously.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Gu Xingxie.
Without even making eye contact with Xiao Yan, Gu Xingxie could sense the other party's malice, so he quickly turned his head and looked at Ling Yao and Chu Xici beside him.
Chu Xichi put his hand to his mouth and whispered loudly, "Master Gu, don't be afraid. I will make him regret his decision when I get the chance!"
"Are you telling me to keep silent right now by talking so loudly about the conspiracy?" Xiao Yan said in a sinister tone.
Chu Xichi covered her eyes and yelled, "Dr. Xie, you have to take good care of him, otherwise my brother will kill him, and then you will be a widow!"
The word "widow" successfully pleased Xiao Yan. Without Xie Ling saying anything, he smiled and said, "Just kidding. I'm always generous and won't argue with a child."
Xie Ling was simply disgusted by Xiao Yan's childish behavior. He continued with the previous topic, "Mr. Lou, I have an unwelcome request."
"Please speak." Lou Su said politely.
"We are now looking for the key to breaking the impasse based on the fact that you have retraced Mr. Chu's time and caused the time of the entire world to go backwards. So I would like to know more about your and Mr. Chu's abilities. I wonder if you are willing to tell me the truth?" Xie Ling's request was indeed an unreasonable one.
After all, this is the end of the world where everyone is in danger, and supernatural powers are the basis for survival. If the person is not trustworthy, who would reveal his or her cards without reservation?
Even to Lou Su, Chu Xichi and Ling Yao, the people closest to Chu Xihen, he never told them all of his skills.
"Speaking of this, baby, I have learned the [Time Freeze] that you gave me, but I can't use it." At that time in Base 117, after Lou Su learned the skill, Chu Xihen went downstairs and let him practice in the room by himself. As a result, he practiced for a long time but couldn't use the skill.
When he went downstairs, he saw Chu Xihen killing Xiao Yan. He then became so jealous that he forgot about the incident.
"This is a skill I just learned. It can't be the same as [Time Rewind], right?" After Lou Su finished speaking, he introduced the skill of [Time Freeze] to Xie Ling.
"I can't use the skills I just learned? This is really strange!" Xiao Yan sighed.
Xie Ling listened carefully and said, "I still have two guesses. The first is that this skill is a large-scale skill that affects the time of the whole world. Although you have learned the skill, your mental strength is not enough for you to activate it, so you cannot use it. The second is that you used it at the wrong time. This skill needs to be used at a specific time to work."
He paused for a moment and said, "For example, it can only be used in a dungeon."
“Or it can only be used when Xiao Chou appears when the dungeon is opened.” Chu Xihen also added.
