Chapter 1298: Chapter 375: The Ancient Shadow’s Angel Envoy! A Battle of Wits with the Air! The Tainted Royal Clan!_2

In fact, when she first used the "Eye of History" and didn’t see any traces of Gary Smith, she had her suspicions.

Because the River of History originates from the depths of the Mother River, it is a tributary of the Long River of Time, running through countless worlds, recording the historical progress of countless worlds.

It’s not just about the True King, even a Great Existence can’t intervene with it, and it will even record their traces. Once they perish, they will be covered by these historical dust particles, buried in the Old Days Era, becoming what most people recognize as "Old Gods."

Once buried in the past, it involves not only the death of the body but also the gradual obscurity and loss of the dominion they held. It requires a great sacrifice to probabilistically return from the Old Days Era.

For example, the revival of the Emperor of Hidden Corpses was a plan that took endless years and even sacrificed a Skeleton Angel as a Sacrifice to guide it. But, had Gary Smith not disrupted Mother of Twilight’s arrangement, it might have already become food.

Beyond that, deep within the River of History lie many ancient beings and secrets left by Taboo Existences, containing terrifying powers.

She inadvertently glimpsed the "Ancient Shadow" last time, nearly causing Abyss City to be swept away, dangers lurked everywhere.

Not to mention the Ancient King’s Law, but could even a reincarnated Ancient Monarch truly erase traces from the River of History?

"Or is it..."

Serena Martin’s eyes sparkled with the light of wisdom. Indeed, though Ghost Seventeen was strong, with Gary Smith as her stalwart supporter, she wouldn’t be so frightened as to become weak at the knees.

The real reason was... the River of History had just stirred for a moment, as if some terrifying existence was approaching, sending tremors through the soul.

And she had seen such a scene before.

"Ancient Shadow!"

At first, Serena Martin only thought the Ancient Shadow was related to the Divine Temple Relic in Abyss City’s Abandoned City District, but it was later proven to be the temple of the "Emperor of Hidden Corpses."

Likewise, her surreptitious retracing of Time did not cause any anomalies.

The only time she encountered this suspected Taboo Projection was when she was with Gary Smith.

And the one surrounding Gary Smith has been suspected by many to be the sun-related Ancient King’s Law.

And the term "Ancient Shadow" was her unilateral label, not necessarily the honored title of the other party, who could just be a Great Existence related to the sun.

Especially since this time, the Ancient Scholar Butterfly told her that although it was a Summoner, it could not restrain Gary Smith’s projection because it was brought forth by the wheels of History; it couldn’t even undo the summoning skill, and that’s why it was put on a dog leash.

It’s not that it was incompetent, but that Gary Smith had higher privileges in the River of History than she did.

"The Legendary Investigator once said: [When there are too many coincidences, they are not coincidences.]"

Serena Martin hummed internally, pretending to be dazed, but she was in fact quite astute.

This could well explain Gary Smith’s terrifying rise; none of his father’s or mother’s relatives inherited the Ancient King’s Bloodline.

Because there really was no Ancient Sun King but...

Gary Smith was picked by a Great Existence!

There was absolutely no chance of duplication!

"Could it be that when I initially used Ancient Bookworm to trace back through Time, it incidentally caught the other party’s attention, and that’s how Gary Smith was chosen to become an Angel Envoy?"

Serena Martin felt heavy-hearted. A Great Existence’s Grace might be infinitely glorious, but it was like drinking poison to quench thirst. Ninety-nine percent of the chosen ones ended up in dire straits.

Most likely becoming their pawns, or if an Old God was involved, possibly becoming the coordinates for their return, or even a Sacrifice.

The Gary Smith of the past faced such immense crisis yet put up a calm front, not saying a thing, instead comforting her at the first opportunity.

"He was just a little Dog back then, yet he protected me. But now, he has grown into a significant figure!"

A sweetness surged in Serena Martin’s heart, but there was more guilt. Thus, she silently vowed.

Gary Smith was the future Legendary Investigator’s best assistant, an ideal partner for the Myth Archaeologist, and even... cough cough,

No matter what identity, even Deities shall not take him away!

Serena Martin had decided she would utilize all her knowledge to help him unearth Relics, to find the true origin and identity of the "Ancient Shadow," to discover its weaknesses, and to find a chance to escape the control of the Deities.

With these thoughts, she looked at the "Gary Smith Projection," with a determined gaze that couldn’t help being mixed with tenderness.

If before it was just to appease her Grandfather, but now, she felt that just by looking at Gary Smith, her heart began to race.

This silent protection deeply touched her!

’This silly Woman is daydreaming again!’ Gary Smith, disguised as his projection, maintained a calm demeanor, feeling somewhat speechless internally.

Indeed, no person should be underestimated—not even the seemingly foolish Serena Martin, who had so much cunning.

She had actually discovered a clue!

But Gary Smith was well-prepared. By using her hand, he had helped many Giants and Ecological Lords thoroughly establish their identities.

To eliminate some hidden dangers in advance.

"However, with the Key of Truth bugging out the Long River of Time, I can use Serena Martin to access a special channel in the future. It’s like a targeted teleportation lifesaving skill that can be used to navigate certain desperate situations.

The prerequisite is to get this Woman to stop digging up graves all the time and improve her strength a bit. Otherwise, when I ascend to Giant status, she won’t even be able to summon a hand to help."

Gary Smith unilaterally announced that Serena Martin would be one of his teleportation points.

And another gain is the material of Ghost Seventeen, the Spirit.
