Chapter 323

Life and Death Crisis?

"How long do we still have to arrive at the Red Dust Domain?" Chen Ling opened his eyes, asking Chu Muyun in a low voice.

Chu Muyun pushed his glasses, "The position of Red Dust Domain is in the east, while Aurora Domain is in the northernmost... at our speed, at least also needs five days."

Five days??

Chen Ling's heart gave a 'gedeng' thud.

According to his calculations, if always staying in this kind of extremely boring situation, the dropping speed of Audience Expectation Value would be able to drop 1% in four or five hours. Before waiting for them to arrive at the Red Dust Domain, Expectation Value would then have to be deducted into a negative number!

Moreover this is still the most ideal situation. In fact once Expectation Value drops below 20%, the descending speed will then be even faster. High probability he wouldn't even survive past three days.

"Rest assured, enough water and food are prepared on the vehicle, enough for us to arrive at the Red Dust Domain." Chu Muyun seeing Chen Ling's face was awful, spoke to comfort.

Chen Ling had no way to explain his current predicament. He absolutely didn't think, he himself not easily survived from the Aurora Domain, was about to be suffocated to death on the two words "boredom"... Chen Ling couldn't accept such an absurd way to die, he had to think of a way to change the status quo.

Right when Chen Ling braving cold sweat painstakingly pondering, suddenly like thinking of something, reached his hand feeling towards his bosom...

A USB Drive appeared in his palm.

Ever since Red King gifted him this USB Drive, Chen Ling only utilized it once. After all this thing can only be opened once a month, once is also only one hour. In the Aurora Domain he was truly too busy, basically had no time to read the Save Point again... But right now, this thing became his only life-saving straw.

This era had no way to manufacture brilliance, he could still return to the modern era. Just don't know if the Audience Expectation Value would follow over?

"Timeline Save File huh..."

A voice transmitted from the side. Chen Ling turned his head looking over. Only seeing King of Clubs didn't know when had already opened her both eyes, looking at the USB Drive in his hand, seemingly somewhat surprised, "The third copy, is actually in your hands."

When Chen Ling obtained this USB Drive, Chu Muyun then said, this kind of USB Drive in total has three copies. Red King and Grey King each hold one copy. Right now the one in his hand is exactly the only orphaned copy wandering outside.

"Does Senior have any pointers?" Chen Ling tried to inquire for more information on this USB Drive.

King of Clubs shook her head, "I haven't experienced this thing, don't have any pointers... The only thing that can remind you is exactly, must definitely store it well. Best not let any outsider see, even more cannot let it be snatched away."

When King of Clubs spoke the last two sentences, her tone was unprecedentedly solemn. Chen Ling immediately nodded.

"Also." King of Clubs hesitated for a moment, still added, "After we finish retrieving a 'Monarch' every time, its usage duration will also increase. Right now one time should be able to last 12 hours."

Chen Ling blanked for a moment, a color of surprise emerging in his eyes.

The last time he got the USB Drive, it was still once a month, using one hour a time. Right now actually extended so much... It seems he guessed correctly, the Red Star ingredients retrieved inside Lord of the Aurora's body, should all be used on the Timeline Save File. The USB Drive in his hand, is exactly the key to Dusk Society's Reboot the World!

Chen Ling's gaze swept past the surroundings. Besides King of Clubs and Chu Muyun, the other people seemingly all sank into deep sleep,

He deeply sucked a breath, inserting the USB Drive in his hand into the surface of the iron sheet bucket!

The next moment, familiar deep green codes, then automatically emerged in front of his eyes:

[Number 129439]

[Reading...]

[Reading Complete]

Chen Ling closed his both eyes, his head instantly drooped down.

...

"Ding dong——"

"First floor arrived."

A gentle female voice sounded from inside the elevator. The carriage doors reflecting Chen Ling's shadow slowly opened.

Chen Ling looked at the apartment first floor in front of his eyes fully parked with Electric Scooters and bicycles, and that modernized entrance guard right in front. For a time still somewhat in a trance... The destroyed Aurora Domain and butt-jolting tractor were just like A Brief Illusory Dream. He once again returned to this era he was most familiar with.

Chen Ling recalled, last time when he disconnected it was exactly on the elevator. It seems this time reconnecting, still returned to the original location. This undoubtedly was good news. Otherwise every time reconnecting inside a mall toilet cubicle, then wouldn't it become Zhang Wei? Would really be too troublesome.

Chen Ling walked out of the elevator before the elevator doors closed. Skillfully opening the entrance guard. Right out the door brilliant sunlight then shone on his body. The whole person was warm and fuzzy.

He hadn't felt this kind of warmth for a very long time.

Vroom rumble——

Right when Chen Ling was blankly lost in thought, a truck drove over from the distance, stopping at the entrance of this building.

"Is it this building?"

"Right, it's exactly here, hurry up and move it..."

A few figures jumped down from the truck, skillfully passing out flower wreaths and white cloths outwards. They carried these things walking towards the entrance guard, yet their path was blocked by Chen Ling.

"Brother, trouble you to yield a bit."

"Oh, okay..."

Chen Ling turned sideways yielding out. The few people then placed the flower wreaths sequentially at the entrance of the unit. At the center of the flower wreath was placed a black and white photo. While they were tidying up, their peripheral vision swept to the photo, unable to hold back sighing with emotion,

"Sigh... so young ah?"

"Yeah, heard it's the only son of a married couple, this year only in his early twenties, hasn't even fetched a wife yet."

"How did he die?"

"Wasn't there an earthquake earlier? Working inside a theater, got smashed to death by a spotlight."

"Pity, truly a pity... grew up quite fair and clean."

"Hiss... this face, how come I feel like I've seen it somewhere just now?"

A man suddenly frowned, like seriously pondering about something. Then abruptly turned his head, revealing an expression like seeing a ghost!

On the road in front of the unit door, was already empty without a person.

"Fuck... ing hell?!"

"What's wrong, making a fuss about nothing?"

"The, the person on the photo... isn't it exactly that one at the entrance just now?!"

"Ah?!!"

The moment this sentence came out, the crowd's faces all went white. They recalled that young man just now. Although only casually glimpsed a glance, but indeed exactly identical to the one on the photo!

They themselves exactly did funerals and interments, but for so many years it was still the first time encountering such a bizarre matter. Even with a large sun hanging above their heads, the few people's backs were also instantly soaked with cold sweat...

"Don't, don't panic..." The leading man swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "Maybe... he just missed home, returning to take a look."

"Right right right, we again didn't do anything with a guilty conscience... shouldn't go so far as to..."

"Amitabha, Amitabha..."

...

[Audience Expectation Value +3]

The instant of seeing this line of small text float out, Chen Ling's eyes slightly lit up.

Expectation Value being able to enter the Save Point, means his urgent matter has a method of resolution... Still has to be a place with many people, getting Expectation Value is exactly easy ah.

At the same time, from the first floor balcony next door to him, transmitted a burst of TV news sound:

"...Currently, the Crimson Meteor has already steadily staggered past Earth, entering another perihelion orbit. Astrophysicist Lu Xun calculates, within the next three hundred years there won't again be the risk of collision..."

"...The shot down Red Star Fragment, confirmed to have crashed in our country's Shennongjia region. Currently, a scientist team organized and led by astrophysicist Dr. Lu Xun, is currently heading over to prospect and investigate..."

Hearing this sentence, Chen Ling abruptly stopped his footsteps.

He suddenly realized a problem.

The starting time of Timeline Save File, is the instant the Red Star swiped across the horizon. Which is to say at this time point, many matters all never happened... For example, those nine scientists still hadn't approached the Red Star Fragment, also never absorbed the energy within the fragment, becoming the Nine Monarchs.

If... if he caught up with the time the nine scientists arrived at Shennongjia, does it mean, he can witness the origin of everything with his own eyes?

He can see after the nine scientists discovered the fragment, exactly what happened. How exactly the Nine Monarchs were born. Even, he can still contact the Nine Monarchs from a close distance... He can once again see the alive Lord of the Aurora Yang Xiao!
