Chapter 304.

Sheng An was still staring at him closely.

At the door, the members of the Special Intelligence Service who had just arrived all stopped in their tracks and stared at him dead in the face.

What disaster? How to solve it?

This was the same information they were struggling to explore now, in this lifetime, and at this moment, Sheng An pressed Old Man Qin for the same purpose of finding a solution.

Old man Qin ……

See?

Old Man Qin revealed a smile that was bitter and painful, he didn’t answer immediately, instead he asked, “Do you know what the principle of Rule Order Class Abilities actually is?”

Sheng An pursed his lips, and although he was anxious, he didn’t question him, and instead followed his words-

“Rule order class, it is the rules that things operate with each other, it is the logic and principles of the world, even if the Alien Ability is special it is all still in the principles, and it has to respect certain rules of operation as well.”

Old man Qin smiled and nodded: “Yes, rule order aberrations are too special, either drilling through the cracks of rule loopholes or going against the rule order, and for that reason, the cost is great.”

Sheng An did not say anything, but agreed.

Of all the Rule Order Abilities that had appeared, it currently seemed as if she had the least drawbacks.

But the truth was that she would suffer immense pain every time she pulled time, a pain that would drive a person insane if not for a mind that was hardened to the extreme.

Sheng An also didn’t know how much longer she could hold out.

The higher the level of the supernatural ability, the greater the price paid when using it.

“The same is true for my supernormal ability, peeking at the truth through the gaps in the rules and order, at the cost of my life.”

Old Man Qin smiled and continued, “But the last prophecy was clearly more than I could bear, and I died after only glimpsing part of the truth.”

Sheng An Xin’s mouth tightened.

Old man Qin’s voice was hoarse: “But maybe it was because the truth I peeped into was a fragment, it possessed a huge amount of energy, and the moment I saw it, the moment I peeped into it, it left me in the middle of the rule gap, and I don’t know how long it took, maybe it was just an instant, maybe it was a long time, and the world came back.”

And this, proving the prophecy happened, Sheng An and the others fought against M, ending in a desperate defeat, so she held the fragmented “egg”, and performed the most horrific time travel back in time.

Everything reopens!

“You may have reopened it because you thought there was still hope, but I glimpsed the truth and knew that it was doomed to failure, no matter if it was reopened once, or countless times, it would fail, and there was no possibility of victory in front of any of the paths, and it was bound to be a loss.”

Old man Qin seemed as if his entire being had collapsed, muttering, “I came back 30 days before the end.”

Sheng An was aghast.

Thirty days before!

Surprisingly, it was the earliest batch to appear, and he did hide it well.

Old man Qin was already an old man, the world had reopened, he himself had returned from the rules and order to maintain his original appearance, and Qin Xuan was still there.

Two Qin Xuan existing in one world at the same time was a loophole in the rule order and a trace of Sheng An’s time.

The Qin Xuan of his last life couldn’t live long, so he chose to come and guard himself.

He wanted his childhood self to be happy for a few years, even in the end times.

Qin Xuan grew up with a bitter life, he was indeed raised by a homeless man, but that homeless man only raised him for the purpose of giving himself a retirement, and didn’t treat him well, before the age of three, he had to rely on himself to rummage through garbage cans when he was hungry.

After the end of the world, Sheng An and the others treated him well.

But he had awakened too special powers that meant a lot, constantly prophesied, and never had an easy day.

He thought, a new life, since it was destined to end in failure, let everyone take it easy, live free and happy for a few years.

Until the end of life.

Just like the end of the world inside the TV and novels, fighting, collecting and gathering substances, and occasionally fighting with the fae …… is actually a very relaxed end of the world.

“Then why did you still come?” Sheng An asked softly.

Old man Qin smiled bitterly: “Because of informing the meeting, I didn’t expect you guys to do so much, early awakening of xenos, rebirth, you are still struggling, I know that it is the most powerless struggle, but I saw your face inside the camera, saw my old teammates, still didn’t have control of getting close to you guys, and brought little Qin Xuan to come.”

He looked at their fighting spirit and still couldn’t control himself.

In his last life, the one who was hidden behind the curtain with Sheng An and the others, fighting side by side was Old Man Qin ah.

He had all the memories, he remembered them, and he trusted them and couldn’t control being near them.

–In his last life, he was young and was constantly consuming his life because of the prophecy, his teammates were all very kind to him, they didn’t have as much supplies back then as they do now, but they always saved the good food for him.

He used to ride on Qi Lingmu’s neck.

He used to be constantly fed by Lai Wan Yun, Zhang Kun and Jiang Yu, and they kept feeding him.

Even the arrogant Li Xin, Long Tianyu, and Lou Minggui would take the baby, bathe him, and carry him on missions.

Xiang Hanfeng, who was always cold and arrogant, would smile at him.

Qiu Yu would also rub his head.

None of them remembered, it didn’t matter, he still remembered.

Wanting to be free, knowing that struggling was useless, he was still by their side, accompanying his teammates step by step, even if the result was tragic, they were still in one place.

Only this time.

He didn’t let Qin Xuan keep prophesying anymore, it was useless to peek at more information on the doomed path.

Sheng An’s voice was hoarse, “What exactly did you see that made you, who loved your teammates so much and had given everything, still choose not to say anything?”

Before knowing old man Qin’s identity, she thought that he, the “riddler” who didn’t say anything, could never be considered a good person.

But after knowing his identity, all her speculations were overturned.

He is not an old man, he is only a nine-year-old boy.

A person who consumed his life to constantly prophesize, her greatest helper in her last life, and ultimately sacrificed, how is he not a good person?

People who have all their memories and are ready to live their lives with ease, but still can t help but get closer to them because they see their faces and their efforts ……

What exactly did he see that made him so desperate? Let him firmly believe that all struggles are useless?

Old man Qin: “Have you always believed that even if the white seeds representing the humans were killed until only a few were left, there was still hope, that the humans would eventually win over the fae, over the shards?”

As if Sheng An sensed something, his body tensed up for an instant, his fingers pale, those good-looking danfeng eyes now knotted with frost, his fingertips trembling slightly.

Old man Qin laughed out loud, tears streaming down his pale face as he laughed –

“But what if black and white are both the same chess player?”

“We thought that the Fae were our enemies, and that we were the sustenance of the Fae, but in fact, it was wrong, it was all wrong, from the moment the shards descended, this world was a giant pool of blood!”

“We are not only the fae’s sustenance, the fae are also our whetstone, this game of chess, whoever wins or loses, we won’t win, from the moment we went on the chess game, we have already lost.”

The ending was irrevocable from the moment they went on the chess game, losing was losing, and if they fought with everything they had to win, it was also losing.

Because, black and white, are the same chess player.
