Chapter 982: Chapter 892: Dry weather, beware of pathogens_3

This severely affected the strategy of the Upper World.

The Son of Prophecy they needed was someone to help them control the threads of fate, not a "reminder sleep helper" that drags everyone into sleeping in.

But what Nothingness found most astonishing was that their old friend had escaped the erosion of the virus.

"She is different from you, always planning everything to perfection; you two could be considered complete opposites."

Since Song Lan had asked, Nothingness continued along this topic.

The journey was long, with the hovercar’s navigation showing a 4-hour drive to the Capital City of Oasis.

For him, memory was like a puzzle game.

He had pieced together many parts, but there were still some unsolved mysteries.

For instance, why had these two friends suddenly become so impulsive as to destroy the entire Upper World?

Song Lan’s temperament meant he was never the type to be a proactive revolutionary, and as for their old friend... Nothingness couldn’t figure out any motive for her to turn the guns on others either.

Whenever his thoughts hit this wall, Nothingness couldn’t help but feel angry.

"It’s all your fault, why didn’t you include me in your plans afterward?"

It was him who had brought the virus to the Upper World!

If one must pinpoint a prime culprit, he would likely be the most fitting one!

"Weren’t we good friends?"

Years later, Nothingness finally asked another person involved indignantly, "After all, I was the champion of the first cricket fighting contest; holding back a few people wouldn’t be a problem for me."

The more Nothingness thought about it, the more he felt the imbalance in his heart.

As a trio named the Three Musketeers, when the other two wielded power and influence in the Upper World, he was doing serious research in the "Lower World," as if he were merely making up numbers.

"Why do you want to hold them back, do you have a grudge against them?"

"No grudge."

"Then why..."

"Right, why would I want to help you hold them back?"

Nothingness also belatedly realized the crux of the issue, but he quickly corrected himself, "This isn’t about whether I can hold them back or not, it’s about the trust of friends! You haven’t explained to me why you wanted to destroy this home!"

"I forgot."

"I figured you couldn’t come up with a reason."

Nothingness knew that Song Lan was never a fan of puzzle games, even if he occasionally caught a glimpse of the reflection of memories, he absolutely couldn’t be bothered to piece together those fragments.

But the old friend was different.

She always made ample plans.

The meteor-like fall, as well as the time when Song Lan disappeared, might all be within her plans.

Upon meeting the real her, he must get some clear answers.

"I get it, you’re suspecting Old Lu."

"Yes."

...

Another lengthy silence ensued.

"Why is there no follow-up again?"

Nothingness couldn’t help but press for an answer, already prepared for Song Lan’s questions, and then he was ready to point all clues toward Lu Xiang with a well-reasoned analysis.

"It’s just that I suddenly thought of an old friend."

"Who?"

"Mr. Chai Ke."

"Chai Ke?"

Nothingness thought for a long time but couldn’t match the name with anyone.

The name did not come from the Upper World, nor was it from the top echelons of the Church.

"Assuming you’re right..."

Song Lan paused, then said, "Mr. Chai Ke once wanted to get rid of Old Lu and me."

Just by that demeanor, Song Lan felt that Mr. Chai Ke should get an additional 50 million watts added to his bounty.
