Chapter 604: Lucia and Yug

Lucia and Yug

"A midwife?" Cheng Shi was stunned, "Lucia should be a man?"

"Yes, he is indeed a man, but his delivery level is very high. Many children survived under his hands. As time went on, his reputation grew, and naturally, the gender issue was deliberately ignored by people."

"And it is rumored that before becoming a 'He,' he could treat some miscellaneous diseases of infertility, so this midwife of his isn't a traditional midwife, but more like a skilled obstetrician and gynecologist."

"..." So this is why He is called 【Birth-Sound】?"

"His divine name and his past come from two unrelated memories, so I cannot give you an accurate answer. But from my personal point of view, it's eight or nine out of ten."

"In this way, this Messenger of 【Birth】 isn't..." Cheng Shi hesitated. He remembered Golis and wanted to say the word "abstract," but considering his "friendship" with Aflos, he swallowed this word back.

"Isn't what?"

"Isn't a villain?"

Li Jingming was stunned and laughed:

"They have no distinction between positive and negative, nor good and bad. The so-called good and bad are just subjective judgments based on personal color."

"Generally speaking, the basis for making this judgment is likely interest."

"If it is beneficial to me, it is good; if it is not beneficial to me, it is bad."

"So I often think that faith is not true piety, and there is no lack of desire flowing in it."

Hiss—

Why does this sound familiar?

May I ask if your name is Li Aflos Jingming?

Cheng Shi blinked dumbfoundedly, silently attributing this scene to the fact that people with wide knowledge always have some similar insights.

"Then what desire is mixed in your piety?"

"Me?" Li Jingming smiled, "Probably seeking knowledge and memory? For example, I am very curious about the 'eras' you mentioned."

Good guy, you really know how to insert needles. Cheng Shi sneered and waved his hand: "This counts as the next round, finish my question first."

Hearing that there was a play, Li Jingming's eyes brightened slightly and nodded to continue:

"I have limited understanding of the 【Rotten Vulture End King】. I only know that when only this one 【Decay】 believer was left in the universe, He was pitied by His benefactor and promoted to Messenger in the battle where the 【Decay】 faith was about to perish."

"However, after becoming a Messenger, He instead didn't have the courage he had before. When facing the siege of Herobros and his exterminators, He broke out and ran away."

"Few people are interested in Him, and even the believers of 【Decay】 rarely mention Him. He isn't a glorious example, but more like a clown who picked up his life by luck. Er, sorry, I forgot you are also a clown; I didn't mean anything by it."

"..." You better not!

Cheng Shi twitched the corners of his eyes, thinking that Yug really couldn't change his habit of eating shit. After so many eras, His only specialty was still running away.

Just such a Messenger who was good at running away, could Big Cat catch Him?

Even if she caught Him, could she beat Him?

Cheng Shi couldn't help but worry about Big Cat's future, but at this moment, he forgot one thing: where did Big Cat go!

He was immersed in the memory exchange with Li Jingming, completely forgetting the current situation where he had another teammate whose whereabouts were unknown.

"How about it, are you satisfied with this memory?"

"Barely okay, but whether what you said is true, I still need some time to verify it. After all, you are a liar, and there is no truth in a liar's mouth." Cheng Shi curled his lips with slight disgust, and raised his eyebrows to signal the other party to change.

In this void where no one disturbed, Cheng Shi had enough time to complete his cognition. At least before those two benefactors finished fighting, he should be safe.

Li Jingming saw that Cheng Shi was very interested in talking, which was very consistent with his expectations, so he smiled and said: "My interest in Them is far less than in you. If you are willing..."

"No talk."

Li Jingming was slightly stagnant, nodded with realization: "Good, then let's talk about 'eras'. I am very curious about the relationship between the era you mentioned and the era I know."

Cheng Shi got spirited talking about this. This thing would definitely be able to exchange a big one from Li Jingming's mouth, so he didn't hide or fabricate, just said it a bit vaguely.

"The existence of eras is not unique. The 【Civilization】 era you know has probably been staged four times, and the current one is the fourth."

"!!!"

As soon as Cheng Shi opened his mouth, he shocked Li Jingming quite a bit. He frowned and began to search his memory. Only then did he see countless azure streams of light flash in his eyes. After pondering for a long time, he responded thoughtfully:

"So that's it, so there was one more."

"Hmm?" Now it was Cheng Shi's turn to be shocked, "You guessed it?"

"No, it's just that the repeated memories have slight conflicts, leading to my suspicion of certain time nodes in the past."

"I originally thought this was like the trial of 【Time】, where time entanglement occurred somewhere, leading to the distortion of history."

"But now it seems it's not. It turns out that different civilization eras produced different histories."

"However, the repeated histories in my memory seem to have similarities. Does this mean that every time the civilization era is staged, the direction of history is the same, just with some changes in the middle?"

Just as he said this, Li Jingming and Cheng Shi were both stunned. They looked at each other and said a word in unison:

"【Fate】?"

Indeed, this was too similar. Occurring changes in the predetermined, isn't that the authority of 【Fate】?

But the problem is, in the previous few eras, 【Void】 hadn't descended yet. In other words, 【Origin】 hadn't created 【Void】 yet. Then where did this heavy sense of déjà vu come from?

Cheng Shi indeed hadn't thought about this kind of problem from the perspective of 【Memory】. He pondered for a moment, had no clue, and could only record this question first.

Li Jingming was even more confused than Cheng Shi. He didn't even know how "era" was a set of operating methods. However, based on his profound memory, he still guessed some things, so he asked urgently again:

"Does this 'four times' you mentioned have anything to do with the number of paths?"

Smart!

Cheng Shi had never thought that Long Wang could guess here even if he said it so vaguely. He looked at Long Wang with appreciation and said with a tsk:

"It's amazing. I now believe what Honglin said. Zhen Yi indeed might not have pitted you, but I am more curious, what did she do to you?"

"If you can explain the matter of 'era' clearly, I don't mind sharing this not-so-interesting memory with you. Cheng Shi, you should have seen it, I have never been an enemy of 【Deception】, nor will I be your enemy."
