Chapter 1015: Chapter 494 Ressia: Kinship Has Soured, I Will Confess When I Return, So-Called Node (4.6)_3

"I’m sorry, but I think, the ’Little Luo Xi’ that both of us have, should indeed be one person. Since I’ve come to this era, I presume he can too."

"Ah, was Little Luo Xi originally from the future?"

"Yes, so am I, that’s why I say I am the future you."

"I’m nothing like you, devoid of any sense of shame!"

"People always change, don’t they? Just a few years are enough to change a human’s personality, not to mention the span of eight thousand years between us."

Florecia (past) fell silent.

That was certainly true.

Her grandfather and brother, how much they used to adore her, treating her like the most precious treasure, holding her in the palm of their hands—when did they start treating her as an item to be traded?

"Why have you returned to this era?" she asked.

Florecia (future): "I don’t know, but I think one of the reasons I’m here must be to help him, right? Where is he?"

"I don’t know, actually, I almost died just now, no, I already died, then somehow you came."

"Hmm, indeed."

Florecia touched her chest.

There was a deep knife wound that reached her heart; although it had already healed, she could still feel the pain, and the intense agony from the blood beginning to circulate in her body made her unconsciously want to moan.

It had been a long time since she felt the pain of ’Origin Blood’ eroding her body.

Even with her presence, this body was still heading towards self-destruction. Continuing like this, there was a 30% chance of turning into a ’Dragon’, and a 70% chance of becoming a monster with endlessly proliferating flesh.

"I don’t get it, let’s go find Little Luo Xi first."

"Yes, yes, but can’t you let me have my body first?"

"I am the future you; we are the same person. It doesn’t matter who’s in control of the body."

"Oh... No, wait, even if you are the future me, this is still my body, you’re usurping my place!"

"Did the past me talk this much?"

"I was going to say, how can the future me be so shameless!"

"I am a dragon."

"Damn..."

...

...

On the way to the Golden City.

Bahamut was carrying Luo Xi, sweeping over a city below, then circled back a few seconds later.

"What’s wrong? This isn’t the Golden City, is it?" Luo Xi frowned and looked down.

Bahamut spoke gravely: "No, but there’s something wrong with this city; it’s full of the Evil God’s aura!"

Luo Xi was taken aback.

Looking down, the city was dead silent.

There were no signs of life, just splotches of mottled bloodstains in the streets and alleys.

Could those bloodstains be...

"This is a sacrifice, and it may have been recent. I don’t know if the followers of the Evil God have managed to summon the Evil God’s will."

The black dragon raised its claw and gently touched the Blessing Glory.

Snap!

Instantly, the entire city’s Glory and the Divine Tree shattered to pieces.

"Wasting a bit of time here, that’s fine, right?" the black dragon said.

Luo Xi could only nod.

Matters related to the Evil God indeed required thorough investigation. Florecia had been captured for a month already; a bit more time wouldn’t make a difference if something were to happen.

"There are some remaining rune marks..."

Bahamut, carrying Luo Xi, flickered into view above a city gate. Looking at the dense array of symbols and patterns, she said with a dark expression: "Some of these symbols are commonly used in sacrifices by the Church of Truth, others I don’t understand. What have they done? And how did this city get wiped out without any resistance? Where is the City Owner?"

If a manifestation of the Evil God’s will suddenly appeared and started wreaking havoc on the world now, she could understand.

But nothing had happened, and she was confused; millions of people, such a large-scale sacrifice, it wasn’t unprecedented, but each time the commotion had been great.

Luo Xi remembered what the future Bahamut had once told him before coming here.

—"Eight thousand years ago, there was a strange incident. There was a time when an entire city in the Golden Kingdom was sacrificed by cult followers, but the cultists didn’t cause any disturbance—"

"At that time, I found it very odd. Their sacrifice was aimed at the Lord of Truth, but they added some symbols I didn’t understand. Perhaps that’s when the timeline started to be distorted."

"If the events of today are inevitable, then please do something that’s not in my memory. I wonder, if history can be altered, then the you I knew may not be you now, but perhaps a previous, an even earlier you..."

Had he arrived at this ’node’?

What exactly is this node?
