The moment he called out this title, the fog that lingered in his mind finally dissipated.

No wonder the word "brother" is just an empty symbol to me, no wonder I don't have any detailed memories of the past in my mind...

It turned out that the irretrievable and forever lost person was his father.

Zhou Changming stretched out his hand in despair, but he deeply knew that he couldn't move forward even half a step.

The distance between his father and him was already an insurmountable gap between life and death.

The middle-aged man standing quietly opposite shook his head slightly, with a compassionate and gentle smile.

"Amin, you are finally here."

A soft call, like a shooting star piercing through the night, whistling with a tidal wave of memories.

The broken memory pictures are gradually being spliced ​​together continuously.

Zhou Changming saw that the once young self followed behind a young man in uniform, shuttling through the high-tech buildings full of light and shadow codes.

The man led himself to a conference room.

Just as he was about to open the door and enter, he heard a fierce quarrel coming from inside.

"...Even if the resources of this plane are about to be exhausted, we cannot destroy the survival of other planes."

The voice that sounded first was gentle and firm, and it came from his father, Zhou Zhang.

"Woman's benevolence, Xiao Zhang, do you know how far the causal core of our plane has decayed?"

"This level of exhaustion cannot be recovered by your so-called recovery plan. If you continue to let it go, sooner or later, all of us will be finished!"

The other voice seemed hysterical.

Zhou Changming heard it in his ears and felt inexplicably familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who it belonged to.

In contrast, Zhou Zhang looked extremely calm:

"Ayuan, things are not as pessimistic as you imagined. The research on the causal nucleus is still in-depth, and we have already grasped the preliminary evidence that it can regenerate. In addition, the vital signs of the host are still stable. In time..."

"Natural disasters, climate deterioration, and viruses are raging. You and I can afford to wait, but the people who are suffering from disasters can't afford to wait!"

Another person sneered, "The coalition government is fully funding your research institute, but it has been too long to wait for results. It's time to return power to our military."

"Ayuan, this matter itself cannot be rushed, why don't you be more patient?"

Zhou Zhang's voice seemed a little tired,

"We have been working overtime to study, and the results are obvious. Why don't you try your best to rescue those victims, but instead criticize our research institute?"

"Dr. Zhou, I thought that at least you would understand me."

The man's voice suddenly became cold.

"Differences do not conspire with each other, if you insist on fighting against me, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

With a bang, the door was pushed open.

The young researcher guarded Zhou Changming behind him.

The man who came out of the room was dressed in a valiant military uniform and a cloak, but his appearance was not so powerful, it could even be called elegant and delicate.

What attracted the most attention was the pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his fair face.

At that time, Zhou Changming didn't know who he was, but more than ten years later, they met again, at a cold desk.

That person was none other than Zhong Siyuan, the president of Huanyin Technology when he was young.

"Amin is here?"

Zhou Zhang was rubbing his brows in frustration, but the moment he saw Zhou Changming, he put away all his gloomy emotions.

He opened his arms, hugged Zhou Changming and sat on his lap.

"Father, why are you and that uncle arguing?"

"I don't like him, he's so fierce, unlike the brothers and sisters in the institute, they are very gentle."

"He is a soldier, of course he is different from us."

Helplessness flashed in Zhou Zhang's eyes, "Besides, he and Dad have different views on one matter, and neither of us can convince the other, so he lost his temper."

"But how could Dad be wrong?"

At that time, Zhou Changming was full of innocence, "No one would quarrel with Dad. If there was, it must be because he was unreasonable!"

"You..."

Zhou Zhang scratched the bridge of his nose lightly with a smile, but there was a trace of worry in his brows.

When the memory progresses to this point, the picture in front of him suddenly breaks.

When Zhou Changming could see clearly again, the scene he was in was no longer a laboratory, but a sea of ​​flames.

He struggled to break free from the pile of rubble pressing on him, and shouted his father's name loudly towards the burning flames.

But apart from the screeching of flames in the distance, there was no response.

Not long after, someone grabbed his clothes from behind and forced him to stand up.

A black cloth covered Zhou Changming's eyes.

He couldn't see anything, only vaguely heard a sneer behind him:

"I didn't expect the remnants of the research institute to be hidden here, but teach us how to find them."

"The others were all killed according to the governor's order. Why did you leave him alive?"

"It is said that Dr. Zhou left his research results on this child before he died. It has a vital connection with the governor's plan..."

Before he could hear the rest of the words, the back of his neck went numb slightly.

The cold and slender needle penetrated into the skin.

Consciousness quickly became blurred, and in the remaining consciousness, a strong sadness gradually diffused.

Everyone else is obliterated, so the father...

In the chaotic darkness, a line of tears flowed down the corner of his eyes.

So cool, so desperate.

……

"So, father, you had a disagreement with Governor Zhong, so..."

Zhou Changming rubbed his temples painfully.

If this is true...

So the man behind the scenes who has been tampering with his memory and manipulating himself to work for him is undoubtedly Zhong Siyuan.

And he was so ignorant that he had foolishly sacrificed his life for such a long time for his father-killing enemy.

"No, Amin, I don't blame you."

Zhou Zhang couldn't see that he was suffering so much, so he shook his head hastily:

"As your father, I am also responsible for the fact that you were manipulated by Zhong Siyuan."

"Recently, have you always felt a burning sensation behind your ears?"

Zhou Changming was taken aback for a moment, couldn't help reaching out his hand to touch that place, and nodded slightly.

"That's actually the refining energy of the secret key spar."

Zhou Zhang sighed lightly:

"You must have remembered that the world we live in, in a broad sense, is an independent and co-existing plane in the universe."

"Due to the existence of the causal core of each plane, each plane is isolated from each other by barriers. Creatures on one plane cannot pass through the barrier to enter another plane. This is the law of Zhou Hai."

"However, the secret key spar provides us with the possibility to break through this limitation. It is formed by condensing the energy that escapes from various planes into the Cosmos Sea, so it can break through the limitations of planes under certain conditions and shuttle between them. between."

"At the beginning, our plane was polluted by nuclear radiation, which caused frequent natural disasters and exhausted resources in the plane. The research institute and the military were instructed by the central government to start looking for a solution to this crisis."

"The method given by the military is to open source, that is, to try to plunder the resources of other planes; the research institute's tendency is to save money, to protect the environment by saving resources, so that the nuclear can gain breathing space, and then repair it."

"But no matter which method, it involves the crossing of planes. Therefore, the research institute also quickly launched research on the key spar. After ten years, a test tube of the key essence was extracted."

"What happened later...you must have guessed it."

A bitter arc emerged from the corner of Zhou Changming's mouth:

"Every man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade, not to mention that you still have disagreements with the military? I am afraid that the day when the essence is extracted will be the time when the military will completely turn against the research institute?"

"...you're right."

Zhou Zhang's gaze gradually became sad and distant.

"...At that time, the military directly captured the research institute and massacred the innocent researchers who participated in the experiment, just because they refused to explain the whereabouts of the essence."

"At that time, Dad had no choice but to make the essence the size of a fingernail, inject it behind your ear, disguise it as a red mole, and try to take it out when the time is right."

Although he knew that the consequences of doing so would undoubtedly push Zhou Changming into an unknown abyss.

But the research institute has nowhere to hide, what's more, no matter where it is hidden in the plane ruled by the government, it is useless to the military.

The only option is to hide in the body of the youngest son.

On the surface, he knew nothing about his research, and since he was just an innocent child, no matter how brutal and ruthless the military was, it was impossible for him to kill him.

"But you didn't expect that Zhong Siyuan would notice all of this."

Zhou Changming closed his eyes,

"He imprisoned me and implanted a special mechanism in my brain, making me mistakenly think that I am just an ordinary game player. In order to save my brother's life, I had to become a game tester."

"……I'm very sorry."

"In the essence of the secret key, I tried to retain a part of my personal consciousness, but I was restricted by Zhong Siyuan's thought implantation. Until you broke it with willpower, I was summoned by your spiritual power and appeared to meet you."

"Chang Ming, do you know... who is the man that Zhong Siyuan tried so hard to get you close to?"

As if a basin of ice water was suddenly poured from the top of his head, the resentment and emotions in his heart were all extinguished, Zhou Changming opened his mouth slightly, and suddenly he was speechless.

He didn't hesitate to fabricate lies about the holographic game, tried his best to bring himself to this plane, and experienced catastrophe time and time again...

"Is he... the incarnation of the cause core of this plane?"

But how can...

As the memory returned, he recalled the education he had received since he was a child, and he realized that anyone who was incarnated by the core should be extremely weak.

This is the price they have to bear as nuclear hosts.

Why is Lin Chushu so talented and cultivated to a level that others can't match?

"You must be wondering why he can practice smoothly without any hindrance?"

Zhou Zhang suddenly took a deep breath, as if he had made some kind of decision, and then spoke slowly to Zhou Changming.

"All of this is because of your existence."

"The purpose of every catastrophe that Lin Chushu faced was indeed to take his life, because the stronger he became, the more the energy of the core would be transformed and absorbed by him, and this plane would produce more and more More mutations."

"The first two identities that Zhong Siyuan gave you are actually just using the essence of the secret key to transfer your soul to this plane."

"Yang Qiao and Qin Cangyan were originally just two innocent people in this world."
