Chapter 451 Witnessing it Firsthand



Since those things are kept to themselves and cannot be asked...

Let's not ask for now.

Sooner or later, he will find the answer himself.

So let's wait and see.

"Why Chu Yu... No, that doesn't matter."

The Stargazer is the highest-ranking member of the Watchers, while Chu Yu is just a lowly combat-order operator. There are many ways to find her.

Moreover, Ning Feng only needed to think briefly to recall the point of intersection between these two seemingly unrelated people.

The Star Chaser Competition.

At that time, I was a participant, while the stargazers were the behind-the-scenes promoters.

Ning Feng had a vague idea of ​​why he chose himself, while Chu Yu, who was also a contestant at the time, seemed to have more than just simple reasons for participating.

Is Chu Yu the chosen one?

"Do you even have secrets?"

Ning Feng couldn't believe that someone chosen by a stargazer had no special qualities whatsoever.

Moreover, Ning Feng had actually discovered some of the secrets long ago, but he didn't investigate them in depth because of Jiang Wan.

[Crime Stealer]

Ning Feng searched through many ancient books and met many people, but he could not find any relevant records.

He hadn't thought much about it before, but now that he's thought about it, he can see the problem.

It was so clean that not a single trace was left.

Someone behind the scenes directly blocked those messages, and there aren't many people with that kind of authority.

"It really is an invisible hand."

After muttering a couple of ambiguous words, Ning Feng shook his head.

However, whether viewed then or now, Chu Yu and I are not the same.

There is a significant difference, both in the power they possess now and in how they are treated.

After a moment of silence, Ning Feng asked softly:

Was she there voluntarily?

After such a long silence, Ning Feng only asked this one question.

Was she there voluntarily?

As if he hadn't expected Ning Feng to ask only this one question, Chu Yu gave Ning Feng a deep look.

"This is a transaction, and both sides are aware of the advantages, disadvantages, and constraints involved."

Raising his right hand, Chu Yu rolled up his sleeve, revealing his overly slender arm and the special runes on it.

Equal Contract

An ancient and simple contract, the power binding it is clearly visible.

"An equal contract can only be signed with the consent of both parties."

“She promised to lend me her body if necessary, and I promised to help her if necessary, and the ‘necessity’ is something we can discuss.”

There was no smell of lies.

Every word Chu Yu uttered was true and accurate, and Ning Feng, as the holder of the Judgment Word, was certain of this.

"I see. Will she remember what's happening now?"

If Chu Yu knew my secret, things might become more unpredictable.

“She was fully conscious during our conversation… Of course, I can make her forget if necessary, which is also written into the contract.”

In other words, Chu Yu is actually conscious now?

Ning Feng blinked. He was genuinely curious about Chu Yu's reaction, but to maintain his image, he refrained from asking.

Pity.

"...Then let's leave it at that."

Although it's regrettable, caution is still necessary. It's not the right time for Chu Yu to know my secret yet, as our relationship isn't that close.

Jiang Wan trusts Chu Yu, but that doesn't mean Ning Feng will trust her completely. He can tell the difference between what's important and what's not.

"Then I'll make her forget about it later."

"Yes, I'm sorry."

well……

Ning Feng couldn't quite tell who he was talking to when he let out that sigh; he just felt his mood become somewhat depressed.

"By the way, given your current condition, is Chu Yu's body able to handle it?"

Ning Feng had also experienced having his body controlled and infused with power by a stargazer, and he knew very well that it was not something a fragile girl could withstand.

Rather, he felt that, apart from himself, only a legendary figure could withstand it, and only a legendary figure specializing in melee combat would have a chance.

Shaking her head, the girl sitting in front of the pool seemed to have mixed feelings, or perhaps some regret.

“It’s different. I’m only using my consciousness to descend; I’m not using her body as a vessel for my power.”

"Moreover, with the constraints of a contract, any behavior that exceeds the limits will be automatically stopped, fundamentally avoiding this risk."

Although it is only consciousness, not just anyone can bear it, and the Stargazer believes Ning Feng is aware of this.

This requires a special physique, special talent, or a special destiny...

But Ning Feng did not delve into this issue, and instead asked:

"Oh, by the way, why did you choose a medium?"

As long as the stargazer needs it, all of the observer's eyes can be used, right?

"It's different. There are some things I need to see for myself."

...

...

Chu Yu and Ning Feng were talking over there, while on the top floor of the Watchful City, in that empty hall...

Not yet.

The weak voice echoed in the room, then quickly dissipated, as if absorbed by a huge void, leaving only a hoarse sigh.

This time, the stargazer did not stand by the window as usual, but sat on an unusually large stool.

She leaned back, looking up with some difficulty at the star map above her, which had become exceptionally bright.

"It's not... the right time yet."

"Give me a little more time..."

Tick-tock.

The sound of blood dripping was exceptionally clear in the silent room.

"I want to witness it with my own eyes."

...

...

In silence, Eberron bandaged the wounds of the unconscious injured man.

"I might be very good at this kind of work."

She had thought this way before, and even in the base in the Second War Zone, her mindset remained unchanged.

But when she arrived at the First Blood War Zone, she realized that she had been too naive.

no the same.

Very different.

After experiencing it firsthand, Eberlen realized that the number of wounded soldiers he saw was only a fraction of the true number.

Field hospitals are already operating beyond capacity, yet many wounded soldiers are still unable to receive timely treatment.

Death? No... In bases with dedicated healers and a variety of medicines, it's very difficult for them to die.

They spend most of their time waiting.

Some people used the medication to fall asleep, but many more people's bodies could no longer tolerate that dosage.

It cannot die, but it also cannot be cured.

Even falling into a coma became a luxury; all that remained was a agonizing wait.

Straightening up, Eberron looked around, a bitter smile appearing on his lips, and muttered to himself:

"Is this what I'm meant to witness?"
