Origin Paradise!

"Don't forget your legacy."

Jiang He sent a friend request to the other party.

"Understood." Ink Painting secretly groaned. He had now become a blood servant, controlled by the blood poison. The enhancements from his claws and fangs were almost useless. He would die at the slightest thought from his opponent.

Jiang He ordered the Dawn system: "Retrieve the knowledge of the Möbius strip."

"Please copy the Dawn Corporation database..."

Jiang He followed the prompts to complete the copying steps and then waited patiently. Even after hunting down the Child of No Form, his main quest still showed no signs of completion. The Origin main quest had no apparent punishment, but being in another world, he had to rely on the Origin's teleportation to return to the present.

Normally, if the main storyline of a spin-off or world quest fails, there are two options: one is to voluntarily relinquish player status and receive the final benefit of returning to the present world; the other is to accept the Origin's arrangement and be teleported to a punishment world to continue performing other quests, which are more difficult and have no rewards. Only by succeeding can one return to the original path. Of course, one can also voluntarily stay in the world where the quest failed.

In comparison, only daily tasks are the most relaxing.

A few hours later, Dawn Corporation's massive amount of technological data was stored in the Wilderness Armor. Due to insufficient hardware, the transmission process was slightly slow. At the same time, Ink Painting also rewrote its legacy. For players, this is not the absolute core; the focus is on the combination of skills and items.

Jiang He put the book of Mohist lineage into his pouch, and then listened to the report.

"In 1858, two Prussian mathematicians, Möbius and Johann Listing, discovered the Möbius strip."

"In 2299 AD, the Möbius strip theory was established. The front side of the Möbius strip is its back side, that is: the past is the future, and the future is the past."

"In the same year, scientific research showed that a prerequisite must be met for the successful application of the time ring theory."

"That is to say, all data in the entire universe, including the quantum realm, is computable, and everything from the Big Bang to the present is predetermined."

Jiang He pondered. If this theory is followed, then everything is in an endless cycle. Take the present situation as an example: the Great Xia's Chang'e and Yutu landed on the moon. In the future, an anomaly caused a break in information. People in the future only know that "in ancient times" Chang'e and Yutu landed on the moon. As time continues to develop, in the future, people will name the lunar landers Chang'e and Yutu again. Countless similar Möbius strips constitute the cycle of everything.

"In 2333 AD, after ten years of repeated verification, the scientific community arrived at a despairing result: the universe is still unknown, but all data in the world can indeed be calculated. It is a false, soulless, and future-less artificial stage."

"Science is dead."

"In 2355 AD, after a series of crises including war, the end of the world, and extinction, the sea submerged the world. The survivors built the Garden of Eden on the last land and fell into a deep sleep, erasing their memories. The idea of ​​nihilism spread to its peak."

“The Garden of Eden was modeled after the American West and was managed by John Listing, the owner of the Dawn Company. It was designed to create an adventurous and legendary story for survivors who had lost their memories, and to allow them to awaken occasionally.”

"According to the experimental log, six months ago, an unknown extraterrestrial parasite attacked the Garden of Eden, causing an anomaly in the time loop theory, but it was too late to undo the damage."

Jiang He looked at the faint dawn breaking on the horizon and asked a question.

"Was the Möbius time loop of this world finally established?"

"Under the guidance of an unknown creature, a time loop was established."

The dawn brought not light, but utter darkness.

Chapter 187 The Reversal Ritual

Clang, clang, clang.

The train runs on the tracks, its whistle fading into the distance.

"Want a drink? I'm a bounty hunter and bartender, nicknamed Silver Moon. Your name is Rhine, right?"

At the bar, Jiang He's gaze snapped out of the darkness. He immediately checked his own status. All the gains from the previous cycle were still there. The Wilderness Hunter Armor had several modules loaded, and the Gluttony progress bar was at 10%.

"A glass of iced rum."

"Wait a moment." The silver-haired woman turned around to prepare.

"Based on the enemy's speculation, I should be Baalzeb, which is Beelzebub. The reason why I still couldn't complete the main quest after finding out my identity and weaknesses is because, strictly speaking, Beelzebub has not yet been born."

"The past is the future, and the future is the past."

"In the Möbius time loop, I will become Beelzebub next, which means I was already Beelzebub in the past."

"Only in this way can the main quest be completed."

Jiang He sent a message to Mo Shuihua, briefly explaining her speculation and inquiring about the situation on the other side.

These players' memories did not return to their original state during the time loop, which aligns with the concept of "Personality Theory".

As a player, a traveler of the origin, facing such high-level power, there is an invisible benefit of maintaining one's individuality. At the same time, the unseen child is also subtly unbound by the cycle, and it is protected by the high position of the Toad God.

[Boss, the Green Zombie, the Barrier Master, and the Harpy are completely trapped in the loop. I beat them up. Now they have no active or passive skills, only their physical attributes remain. They've truly become the company's deputy team leaders. Also, Assassin 007 escaped.]

Ink painting responds immediately.

Jiang He pondered. The players died, their souls shattered. Even time reversal couldn't revive the three, or perhaps the power of the Möbius Time Ring was insufficient. In any case, his current goal has become to become Beelzebub.

"Disease, flies, overeating."

As dusk falls, the glow of the sun shines over the Gobi Desert.

"Your iced rum." The silver-haired waitress brought out the drink. Instead of ice balls, the glass contained cubes of crushed ice. Since the man hadn't introduced himself this time, she suppressed her urge to talk.

Whispers came from behind me.

Jiang He downed his drink in one gulp, then pulled out his Whale Song revolver and fired two shots, killing Hans and William at the table.

"Killed!"

"what!"

"Quickly, come with me to another carriage!"

Chaos erupted in the carriage. The silver-haired woman tripped and fell, hitting the corner of a table, and died instantly in her haste to escape.

Jiang He understood immediately. The other party hadn't apologized with his death in the previous cycle, so this guy's script was probably set to result in an accidental death.

He went straight to the front of the train, and the train conductor was about to draw his gun to return fire when his revolver was shot out of his hand.

“Sir, this train is protected by the Rock Sheriff. Apart from White the thief, no cowboy can shoot faster than him.”

The train conductor raised his hands in surrender, but glancing out the window out of the corner of his eye, his expression suddenly changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted:

"Brake immediately! There are people on the tracks!"

The train conductor quickly reached for the brake lever and saw five people jumping around on the tracks, waving their hands wildly to signal the train to stop.

boom!

A bullet whizzed from the muzzle, and the flight attendant fell into a pool of blood.

The train conductor said, trembling, "Sir, there may be an abnormal situation on the track ahead. I must be responsible for the safety of the passengers."

"Never mind, just crash into it."

Jiang He pointed the gun at the other person's forehead.

"You can't do this! Kill me..."

boom!

The train conductor also fell into a pool of blood.

"baffling."

Jiang He put away the whale song; there really was someone courting death.

The train sped past, and the three robbers, unable to dodge in time, were smashed to pieces. The leader of the robbers cursed loudly.

"Damn Jon, don't let me find you! This isn't what we agreed on!"

Jiang He pulled out his sniper rifle and easily killed the leader of the robbers and the remaining members.

Noisy!

The train arrived at the station a dozen minutes later.

Jiang He got off the bus first, walked through the bustling crowd and went straight to a dark-skinned little boy.

"You country bumpkin, I didn't do anything to you."

The dark-skinned brat couldn't help but take a step back.

Jiang He chuckled, "I took the train all the way just to kill you."

The dark-skinned imp sensed something was wrong and turned to run, but a long rope was swung down and accurately lassoed his neck.

"Let me go, you country bumpkin! My uncle is the sheriff!"

"Don't rush, please fly your kite."

Jiang He dragged the dark-skinned little devil to the roadside, swung the end of the rope past the streetlight, and then pulled it sharply.

Wow!

The dark-skinned imp rubbed against the ground and suddenly rose into the air. The rope tightened around his neck, causing him to struggle wildly and flail his limbs erratically.

"Stop it!"

The sheriff stormed out of the second floor.

Jiang He released his grip and stretched again, repeating this twice. The dark-skinned little devil became completely still, and his neck stretched out, growing more than ten centimeters taller for free.

The sheriff drew his gun and said menacingly, "To do such a thing to a child, you are even more shameless than White."

Jiang He pulled out a second long rope, sensing that it would become a necessity for him in the future.

Ten seconds later.

The sheriff was hung from a street lamp and struggled frantically.

Jiang He stretched the doll a few times and made another teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll made of teru bozu), drawing a conclusion at the same time.

"It seems the Child of No Form is also dead."

He now appears as the native blacksmith Rhine, not the blond newcomer Hans. A native acting out of character is bound to attract attention. For Dawn Corporation, it's not yet time for maintenance. They might tolerate it considering the newcomers' experience. But as long as the all-knowing Child of the Unseen lives, they will most likely test and respond.

Chaos erupted in the streets.

Jiang He raised his fingertip, and swarms of decaying flies flew out of the ring, while at the same time his fingertip burst with colorful light.

Hellish Smallpox, a perfect-level blood poison derivative ability.

Smallpox is one of the oldest and deadliest diseases in human history, lasting for more than 3,000 years and causing 300 to 500 million deaths in a century.

Hellish smallpox shortened the incubation period to within a few hours. It spread through the respiratory tract and contact. This disease affected the soul and flesh, growing stronger by using life force as nourishment, and manifested as death from ulceration all over the body.

Due to the close proximity, the two corpses on the lamppost had begun to drip putrid pus.

Jiang He chose a ransacked house and began the second Blood Bat Knight promotion ceremony.

The carrier, symbol, and elements have remained unchanged.

The only difference is the original formula.

The original formula for knightly rituals is past—present—future.

He is currently experiencing and immersed in the Möbius time loop, where the past is the future and the future is the past.

"The second knight promotion ceremony, or rather the reversal ceremony, is based on the formula of future-present-past. It is very different from the original Grand Knight ceremony. If the physical condition is insufficient, forcibly jumping will only follow in the footsteps of the Aphid Emperor. However, by making the soul armor more perfect, it should be possible to obtain powerful abilities."

Jiang He lay down in the simple pool filled with his own blood, with the Long-Hate Dragon Spear stuck beside him as a guard.

He was gradually engulfed by blood.

Chapter 188 The Knight of Möbius

Cellar.

The Long-Hate Dragon Spear, piercing the ground, faintly revealed the phantom of a dragon, violent and ferocious. Whenever residents broke into the house to loot, a low roar would sound, ready to unleash its power.

In a rather rudimentary pool of blood.

All the blood slowly flowed back into the body from the wrist wound, and the highly effective self-healing function took effect, causing the wound to disappear.

Jiang He opened his eyes, his pupils gradually returning to normal from bright red. The knight promotion inversion ceremony was over, and he clearly felt that the outer armor of his soul was more vivid and fit him better. If he had to use one word to describe it, only completeness could summarize it.

[Name: Möbius Knight]

[Type: System Class]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Effect ①: All attributes +1]

[Effect 2: Energy +800 / Health +30%]

[Effect 3: Time Ring - Resets own status twice per day]

Their basic stats are the same as the player's, with no active or passive skills, only Blood Bat abilities. The player's and Blood Bat phantoms' positions can be swapped. When Mobius' ultimate state is activated, the past, future, and present merge, increasing all basic stats by 40%. This skill will consume a significant amount of stamina.]
