I'm not a drama god

"It wasn't hard work at all."

Yang Xiao waved his hand and joked, "Right now I'm the strongest, and I have the greatest responsibility... Maybe, when you all become stronger than me in the future, I can easily give up."

Lu Xun smiled, and the two continued walking forward side by side.

at this time,

A weak voice suddenly rang in their minds.

The two stopped simultaneously, then looked at each other.

"...Director Chen?"

……

Wushan Town.

A beautiful figure was leaning over the table, staring at the blank sheet of paper before her, but hesitating to begin writing...

The candlelight on the table flickered silently, illuminating the delicate handwriting in the corner of the envelope.

—Yao Qingshou.

Su Zhiwei picked up her pen repeatedly, only to put it down again and again, before finally letting out a long sigh.

Just as she finally mustered the courage to write the first line, the same voice rang in her ears, and her pen, which had just touched the paper, paused slightly.

……

"...Are you in such a hurry to start?"

In a simple hotel room, Wen Ruoshui, who had just escaped death, looked at Wu Tongyuan, who was sitting earnestly on the other side of the bed with a pen and paper in his hand, and spoke with a hint of helplessness.

"Yes." Wu Tongyuan nodded emphatically.

"If... if I could have helped Director Chen increase the probability of the missiles accurately linking to the Gray Realm back then, he wouldn't have needed to detonate so many nuclear weapons at once to gamble on the location of the gate... Even if I could have saved him one more nuclear weapon back then, Director Chen would have had a better chance of coming back!"

"Ultimately... it's because I'm too useless."

"So, I want to learn."

"Only by mastering the formulas of quantum mechanics can I construct 'random fields' and have the possibility of changing the probability of events occurring!"

Seeing the determination in Wu Tongyuan's eyes, Wen Ruoshui rubbed her tired eyes and sighed softly:

"OK then……"

The moment the voice echoed in their minds, they both froze.

A complex emotion flashed in Wen Ruoshui's eyes.

……

"When do you think Old Chu will wake up?"

In the next room, Qi Muyun rolled up his sleeves, soaked a towel in a basin of hot water, wrung it out, and walked straight to the lifeless figure on the bed, who was as still as a wooden statue.

"Who knows?" Ji Xuan lay weakly on the next bed, taking a bite of an apple. "But didn't Director Chen say that if we give him time, he'll definitely wake up?"

Qi Muyun used a warm towel to gently wipe away the bloodstains and dirt from Chu Changqing's body, and couldn't help but complain:

"By the way, why did I have to give Old Chu a bath? Why aren't the two next door coming?"

Ji Xuan thought for a moment:

"Because you are the most loyal."

"...If that's what you mean, then it makes sense." Qi Muyun suppressed a smile, carefully wiping Chu Changqing's body while asking idly, "By the way, why did you insist on sending your future self to the Gray Realm?"

"My future self will have its reasons for doing this," Ji Xuan answered without hesitation. "Perhaps he wants me to grow up quickly under pressure?"

"High pressure? You almost died."

"...I don't care, he must have his reasons."

"Do you believe him that much?"

"Nonsense, that's me. Don't I know what I'm like?"

"But people change."

Ji Xuan gently lifted the half-eaten apple in his hand, held it up to the incandescent light above his head, and with his eyes slightly narrowed, the shadow of the apple core looked like a sword...

Others may change, but I will not.

His tone was absolutely firm.

Qi Muyun turned her head and glanced at him, unable to help but mutter to herself:

"Chuunibyou."

At that moment, both of them were stunned.

"Old Qi, did you hear that?"

"I heard it, it's Director Chen's voice."

Their eyes met in silence.

"...What did he say to you?"

"I should be the same as you."

How do you know we heard the same thing if you don't tell us?

"Nonsense, he must have said those two words to all of us at the same time... If you don't believe me, I'll count to three, and we'll say them together."

"it is good!"

"One, two..."

"three!"

At this moment, the eight rulers of this world, either facing each other or gazing into the distant void, softly repeated the weak yet resolute voice that Chen Ling had just echoed in their minds:

【wait for me. 】

boom--! !

As a cloud of blood mist exploded without warning, Wu Yi, who was lying prone at the edge of the Hidden Cloud Realm, was suddenly awakened from his sleep!

It took it a full two seconds to realize what had happened...

The king exploded on its back!!

At that moment, Wu felt as if the sky had fallen. It frantically searched for the enemy of the King of Assassination, but even after digging three feet into the ground, it found nothing.

Several hours earlier, Wu Yi had already carried Chen Ling to the vicinity of the Hidden Cloud Realm, but the Great King seemed to be fast asleep, so Wu Yi didn't disturb him and instead found a cave-like place nearby to stay... But who could have imagined that the Great King could explode on his own??

What kind of terrifying enemy could injure the King like this from a distance?

The good news is that the king does not seem to be dead. Half of his head and neck remain lying in the blood and mud, a gruesome sight.

After failing to find any enemies, Wu Yi immediately turned his gaze to the human realm not far away. He couldn't heal, and although there were poisonous insects in the Ghost Mocking Abyss that could, that place was too far away. If he went back, he would probably die before he could even reach the Ghost Mocking Abyss King... Right now, perhaps only that realm had someone who could heal the King!

Wu Yi let out a neigh and charged towards the Hidden Cloud Realm without hesitation.

Just then, Chen Ling, who was on its back, struggled to open her eyes, her cloudy pupils barely maintaining a sliver of clarity.

"Wu Yi...stop."

Chen Ling's voice was very faint, but Wu Yi heard it.

It immediately obeyed the command and stopped, turning back to look at Chen Ling on its back, letting out worried cries.

"Your king... he's not that easy to kill..."

"Don't worry about me..."

"Dump me at the entrance to that realm, then you can leave... Go underground, and don't cause panic in the realm."

After uttering the last word, Chen Ling's consciousness blurred again, and she fainted.

Chen Ling dodged half of the final attack from the calamity. If the save file had been half a second later and brought him back, he probably wouldn't even have had his head left, and would have been reduced to ashes... But even so, Chen Ling's injuries were extremely severe.

If it weren't for Chaozai's extremely strong physical condition, coupled with the enhancement of the Blood Robe, Chen Ling would have been doomed even if he had returned. He is currently in a half-dead state and can only rely on the Blood Robe to slowly repair his body.

Although Wu Yi was somewhat uneasy, it was, after all, the king's order. It nodded and then led Chen Ling quickly toward the direction of the Hidden Cloud Realm.
