Chapter 1897
No hesitation at all, except Lin Lan hesitated a little; after the hamster received it, he drank it all in one gulp.
He had seen something like this before; as early as about eight or nine years ago, all of humanity in the world had drunk something similar.
Holy Linkage Potion, this is used to strengthen the link with the true god Lin An, and can even communicate with that being's holy object.
Of course, since Lin An left this world, they have only been summoned by the true god about six years ago, briefly feeling Ling An's will.
(Is Ling An summoning us?)
(The person on the operating table... seems to be... that one!?)
Compared to the Hamster Pope, who was somewhat excitedly gripping the empty bottle, preparing to link up light as Klein requested.
Yun Tian beside him seemed unable to bear it any longer, staring fixedly at Klein:
"Lord Klein, didn't you say it was enough for my sister to check a few times!?"
"Why, why do we still have her use her ability now? What exactly do you want to see!? Lord Chu An he... clearly already has no...!"
"Not having it now doesn't mean there won't be later."
"Not being able to see is only because the gap is too great, not because we truly can't see anything!"
Not waiting for Yun Tian to feel heartache for Yun Lin.
Klein, who hadn't rested for who knows how long, coldly interrupted his words, his expression furious!
But soon, Klein also realized his emotions were somewhat out of control, so he forcibly suppressed his irritation and heavily patted Yun Tian's shoulder.
"Sorry, some things might make my emotions off."
"Yun Tian, I know Yun Lin is in great pain, but we really have no way, and I also can't explain anything to you."
"I've already had her trace back the past; at most there's still a week left, and it should be over."
Yun Tian stared with his mouth open, lowering his head bitterly:
"Sorry, Lord Klein, although I don't know exactly what all this is for."
"But if I can help Colonel Chu, if I can help Brother Lin, I also know what to do. Just... is there really something bad going to happen.."
Yun Tian finished speaking anxiously and looked up, only to see Klein already preparing to leave the cold storage room.
Without turning back, Klein stopped his steps, merely shaking his head slightly, then nodding.
Something bad?
No..
That is beyond anyone's imagination, a nightmare so terrifying it would make even him tremble, imminent Descent..
Top of the black tower.
Klein gazed complexly at the massive light sphere in the hollowed-out top of the tower.
This is the energy core of the amoeba worm world.
Once brilliantly radiant, capable of sustaining the dungeon's reboot over a hundred times, the core has now grown dim and feeble, as if it would extinguish in the next second.
But it's not about the energy; for Klein, what he truly fears is the impending group of 'people'.
"Chu An.."
"If you don't wake up soon, I really don't know what to do."
"Unstoppable.. no matter what, we simply cannot stop them..! Once they discover this place's secret, not even the entirety of reality, the entire universe, could be a match for them!"
Clutching his head in pain, Klein bore no resemblance to how Lin An first saw him; like a noble, even having an air of arrogance.
At this moment, he seemed like a child trembling in the dark night, fearfully widening his eyes to gaze at the endless darkness.
Yun Tian doesn't know what he's doing, Lin An doesn't know, and nobody knows.
Even.. he himself isn't certain what he's actually doing.
He is simply following that man's instructions, carrying out the plan step by step.
As Yun Lin entered this place and began working according to Chu An's notes, only then did he recently suddenly guess what that man intended to do!
(Klein, have you heard this saying?)
(Huh? What saying?)
(The death of life has three stages...)
(The corruption and withering of the flesh, loved ones forgetting you, the world erasing your traces—these three stages constitute true death.)
(Chu An, what are you trying to say? This quote is interesting; who said it? Perhaps an Awakened One skilled in researching life?)
(No.)
(Who said it doesn't matter.)
(I just want to tell you...)
(And vice versa.)
Night Descent.
Under the black night curtain, the black tower at the world's center stands like a monolith in endless space.
Red light flashes at the tower's top; wave after wave of intangible, unstoppable, un-interceptable unknown fluctuations resonate in the dimensions, like a gravitational tremor transcending space.
Even more like a lighthouse, it guides the arrival of death.
Egyptian battlefield.
"That one... why isn't he moving at all!?"
"I don't know.. how do I feel this change.. what is the Emperor Lin thinking? He's been staring at the corpse... could these three people have some problem?"
"Heaven knows.. for an existence of this level, who could guess what he's thinking? Perhaps he's feeling nostalgic for the past? I feel these three idiots might actually know Emperor Lin, even..."
Every move Lin An makes tugs at the hearts of countless people.
Even the air dares not breathe; in the eyes of millions of Awakened Ones and global high-level figures, Lin An seems frozen, having not moved for over ten-odd seconds.
For Lin An, who is absolutely a true god–level powerhouse, a stagnation of ten-odd seconds is simply unimaginable.
Besides, he's not an ordinary person; killing a person still makes him hesitate for half a day. Speaking of Lin An's brutality, even if he killed up to a million people, his eyes probably wouldn't even blink.
No matter what anyone guessed, intimidated by Lin An's terror, not a single person in the crowd dared to take the chance to flee; they could only watch him nervously.
Ignoring the crowd, after a moment, Lin An slowly raised his head amid the cries of surprise.
Memory ended, and a large amount of pre-Apocalypse memories surfaced in his mind.
But aside from that activated scene, the other memories weren't anything special.
Although he still hasn't figured out what exactly is going on, under super-effective thinking, Lin An still drew several conclusions.
1. The memory activated after he killed Tang Tian is likely not a coincidence.
2. Chu An must have prepared something in advance; the Ameba Original Liquid couldn't have been injected into Tang Tian's body for no reason.
3. Since it's not an accidental coincidence, given Chu An's character, he must be conveying some information. Moreover, the whole matter is necessarily related to Cain's Blade and the Ameba Original Liquid.
"What could it be... what are you doing... Chu An?"
"If simply letting me see this memory, I could do the same by killing someone and extracting their soul. So it's absolutely impossible that the memory itself is flawed."
"Using this as a logical basis, it also means Chu An doesn't care that I discovered he had been in contact with me earlier..."
"But, making me forget, and then making me remember.."
"Remembering is important? And you need Ameba?"
Frowning, for some unknown reason, behind all the mist, Lin An also felt, in the vague depths, between burning memory and memory loss, that an astonishing secret beyond imagination seemed to be hidden.
No, I just feel something's off!
One line of logic seems wrong, but he just can't find the answer.
He also doesn't know what Chu An is scheming, or why it suddenly erupted.
Of course, there's also a tiny possibility that this really was a coincidence. Back when Chu An obtained the Ameba Original Liquid, he wanted him to sacrifice Tang Wan's family to gain power. But he grew too fast, so he didn't need this.
Taking a deep breath, Lin An suppressed the suspicions in his heart, his gaze cold as he looked at Tang Wan on the ground, spitting blood, still gazing at her resentfully.
This woman, she only had her last breath left.
Kill her? Then extract the memory to take a look?
He also sensed the aura of the Ameba Worm inside Tang Wan's body.
