Chapter 557: 252: Paradox to kill or not to kill_2
"We have shared life and death," Zhou Baiyu said meaningfully.
He addressed these words to Seamer, but before the sound of his voice had died away, he turned his head to look at Huang.
"I will keep my promise and take you out of here. I will tell you the way out, please take this monster with you."
Huang's words floated into Zhou Baiyu's mind.
In fact, Zhou Baiyu was very interested in exploring the Brain Hole World of the blue hole, but he never truly revealed this intention.
"I've found a way back, do you think we will meet again in the future?"
This was another sentence directed at both Seamer and Huang.
Seamer suddenly felt that this "Huang Miu" was not so clever after all. Although Huang continuously provided intelligence and had strong intuition along the way, he never realized...the malice within himself.
Of course, this guy knew about Seamer.
Seamer wondered what Huang Miu's reaction would be if he knew that he was indeed Seamer?
After all, during the confrontation with number one, Seamer had almost revealed his stitching powers.
But number one was too powerful, preventing Seamer from getting close, and all those stitching threads were cut.
Luckily, Seamer hadn't exposed himself.
Of course, more than staying hidden, Seamer was eager to absorb number one. But his target for absorption had to be a living being.
Dead objects could also be stitched, but it wouldn't bring any enhancement of abilities.
Looking at Zhou Baiyu, Seamer suddenly had a sense of elation, thinking "I have outsmarted you in intelligence."
But this feeling of elation did not cause Seamer to give up on the idea of "stitching" Zhou Baiyu.
He was still planning how to stitch Zhou Baiyu.
"Of course, haven't we already established a profound friendship? I hope that after we leave here, you will come to Linxiang City as a guest. I will treat you well."
Seamer, uncharacteristically, made a benevolent expression. Zhou Baiyu saw it and laughed inwardly.
And Huang responded to Zhou Baiyu's answer:
"Thank you for your help; we might meet again. Perhaps next time, I will have absorbed Bai Ye, or Bai Ye will have completely taken control of me."
"I hope that next time we run into each other, we are not enemies."
This was the Holy Sanctuary communicating with Zhou Baiyu through the Law Enforcer Huang.
Zhou Baiyu nodded imperceptibly, and finally, his gaze fell on the corpse of number one.
Such a powerful enemy, dead...
Items of rule level are really powerful. While Zhou Baiyu was contemplating this, he had a strange feeling.
For some reason, the body of number one felt incredibly real, and it definitely wasn't a feigned death...but he always felt there was a strange familiarity about number one.
"Is it some kind of resonance between Reversers and Pioneers?"
"No... that's not right."
Zhou Baiyu quickly dismissed this thought.
As a strong intuitive player, possessing the characteristic of a sixth-sense player, Zhou Baiyu trusted his first instinct.
"Number one is undoubtedly dead, but this feeling always seems a bit familiar."
What exactly was this familiarity?
Zhou Baiyu did not let go of this momentary intuition and stared intently at the corpse of number one.
Seamer noticed this:
"What's the matter? Why are you staring at him?"
Seamer subconsciously thought that Zhou Baiyu might want to piece the body back together, after all, that's something he himself loved to do; looking at the body parts, he really wanted to try.
In the end, Zhou Baiyu shook his head and said:
"I hope I'm just overthinking it. Let's go, these Law Enforcers have agreed to let us leave."
"Black, please send him off; Huang, please take me away."
Naturally, they couldn't just leave like that. They also couldn't take Seamer with them.
If what Bai Ye said was true, that the secret of the Holy Sanctuary lay deep within Seamer's memory, then exploring the Brain Hole World of the blue hole might be a good choice.
At least, the 24-hour survival time had not yet been reached.
Of course, that sense of discomfort in Zhou Baiyu's mind had not faded.
He suddenly remembered something.
A phrase Lin had once said.
"You Pioneers do not disturb time and space, nor do you cause paradoxes, because various mechanisms have already been set."
"Moreover, if it weren't for you, little brother, the owner of this 'Jiang Xianwu' body would have died in the Hanging Corpse Hospital."
"In the Advanced World, you yourself do not exist. You are merely possessing others' bodies."
"But if you return to the real world, that's not the case."
This conversation had taken place between Zhou Baiyu and Lin after he had defeated "Sincerity."
At that time, Zhou Baiyu had just experienced a "paradox kill."
That is, his real-world self traveled back to the past of the real world and encountered another version of himself.
Zhou Baiyu had only experienced this once, of course, there might be another time in the future.
After all, the power to choose his own version was still in his hands.
This moment of reflection allowed Zhou Baiyu to suddenly grasp something!
"So that's it! I've finally found what was bothering me!"
Zhou Baiyu was about to leave, but suddenly turned back and looked at the corpse of number one again.
"Number one is different from us Pioneers. Although Reversers have such a name, there is a fundamental difference in the mechanisms compared to Pioneers!"
"Pioneers are people from the third world, traveling to the second world, and Pioneers are changing history that has already happened. It's like changing a game instance!"
In a sense, for Pioneers coming to the Advanced World, it's training, but if the training evaluation isn't S-grade, then it's purely for training and does not affect history!"
