Chapter 638 612: Reincarnator?
Wang Shengyuan glanced at the time; it was already midnight. He had no choice but to suppress his thoughts and wait until tomorrow.
That night, he listened to the sound of thunderstorms outside, sitting idly all night with his mind cluttered with random thoughts.
It wasn't until he heard voices coming from the neighborhood outside his window that he suddenly woke up. He pulled back the curtains and realized the sky was already bright, and the rain had stopped.
He couldn't bother with refreshing himself and quickly went out the door, realizing he had no idea where Chief Advisor Chen lived.
Two years ago, he was just a major martial artist, not even a martial artist. Such a significant figure was beyond his reach.
He rode his bicycle and quickly headed to the district government.
Fortunately, his status as a major martial artist was sufficient, and he quickly met the district chief.
"Advisor Wang, what is your business with Chief Advisor Chen?" the district chief asked, somewhat perplexed.
Although Chen's home address wasn't completely confidential, it wasn't information to be casually disclosed either.
"I have a matter of utmost urgency to discuss!" Wang Shengyuan said seriously.
The district chief's face changed slightly upon hearing this: "Can Advisor Wang explain what the matter is?"
Wang Shengyuan hesitated, then slightly shook his head. This matter was too incredulous; he was insignificant, and whether the other party would believe him was uncertain. Moreover, even if he spoke about it, it wouldn't change the inevitable downfall of humanity.
Right now, the most important thing was to first find the God of Martial Arts, Chief Advisor Chen.
"This concerns Chief Advisor Chen's safety; I must see him to speak of it."
This statement was explosive, and the district chief immediately stood up:
"What!"
...
Before dawn, Chen Shouyi hurriedly left his house and traveled to the alternate world to continue his seclusion.
"Boom boom boom!"
Chen Shouyi's hands moved like ghostly shadows, and arrows shot out like a storm. Every arrow hit its target; despite not practicing much after his will transformed, his archery naturally reached a master level, each arrow seemingly carrying a guaranteed hit buff. As long as his eyes locked on, it wouldn't miss.
Unfortunately, this bow was too light for him; its power was too weak, far inferior to the casual strike of his Giant Transformation. He shot a few arrows, indulged his Divine Archer craving, then lost interest and threw the bow back into space.
He checked the attribute panel.
Strength: 21.5
Agility: 21.4
Constitution: 21.5
Intelligence: 21.2
Perception: 21.2
Will: 21.0
Energy Accumulation: 30.28
Faith Value: 1850.5
"Demigod attributes are roughly at 20, weak divine power is between 22 to 23 points, weak divine power… haven't encountered it, whereas moderate divine power is above 27 points." Chen Shouyi thought:
"My attributes are now close to weak divine power. With my two super innate abilities, even if I encounter the God of Flames again, it won't be as embarrassing as last time."
He took off his shirt, wearing only a pair of shorts, and began practicing "Horizontal Training" in the thirty-six style. However, after only a few hours of practice, he felt someone entering the nearby spatial passage.
Chen Shouyi turned his head to look, somewhat surprised. Since he arrived here, this passage had become like his private passage, with no one else entering or leaving except soldiers with business.
"Chen... Chief Advisor Chen, I finally found you?" Wang Shengyuan was both excited and nervous upon seeing Chen Shouyi from afar.
Chen Shouyi was puzzled; someone was indeed looking for him: "What do you need?"
"I... I'm called Wang Shengyuan. I have something important to tell you. I know what I'm about to say is incredible, but I swear every word is true!"
No matter how prepared he was mentally, truly facing this legendary God of Martial Arts capable of slaying gods meant feeling pressure. He felt a slight tremble in his voice.
Chen Shouyi listened, somewhat baffled but patient: "Um, go ahead!"
"I've been reborn from two years into the future..."
"Reborn from two years into the future?" Chen Shouyi interrupted.
"I... I know, this is hard to understand!" Wang Shengyuan saw Chen Shouyi's disbelieving expression and instantly became emotionally agitated: "But you must believe me, three months from now the God of Lightning will invade Great Xia Country, Great Xia Country will fall, and you will die... I'm here to remind you not to confront the God of Lightning but preserve your strength for the future."
Chen Shouyi was astonished.
Such nonsense.
Having read so many books, he was no longer ignorant like before.
Time could move forward but not reverse.
How could there be such a thing as rebirth, reversing the universe's time would require enough energy to destroy countless universes, even reversing one Solar System would likely consume the energy of several galaxies. It's unimaginable.
But since it involved his life and death, Chen Shouyi didn't dare be careless. He asked calmly: "Which God of Lightning?"
"I... I'm not sure. It is said to have been occupying America for some time!" Wang Shengyuan replied.
Chen Shouyi's heart went cold because indeed North and South America had been conquered by a powerful god. Such matters are unknown unless one reaches a certain level.
However, he didn't completely believe it, as rebirth was impossible. If reversing the world were so easy, the world would be in chaos.
Next, he carefully questioned Wang Shengyuan, discovering that his memories of the future were quite vague, only knowing roughly that in three months humanity would rapidly fall, and Chen Shouyi would die, but he couldn't recall any specifics.
"Do you remember what happened before the rebirth?"
"I remember!" Facing Chen Shouyi's questioning, Wang Shengyuan answered honestly, feeling something was amiss: "Before rebirth, I was in the mountains with other high-ranking officials for a secret meeting, unexpectedly betrayed by a traitor. Midway through the meeting, a cult surrounded us."
"Do you recognize the people at the meeting?"
"I know about half of them!" Wang Shengyuan confirmed, because for him, it was just yesterday and deeply memorable.
"Tell me a few names?" Chen Shouyi asked.
Wang Shengyuan was about to speak, but only opened his mouth and got stuck. He clearly felt he remembered deeply, but upon recalling he found he couldn't remember their names or even their appearances.
His memories of the future were remarkably fragile, unworthy of scrutiny, as if forcibly inserted.
"Chen... Chief Advisor Chen, I really... didn't deceive you?" Wang Shengyuan stammered, nervous.
"I believe you!" Chen Shouyi's expression also became serious: "From what I know, there are two ways to achieve similar effects; one is having prophecy or destiny-like innate abilities, the other... is someone altering your memories."
Cold sweat gradually seeped from Wang Shengyuan as he knew he didn't possess prophecy or destiny abilities. If it wasn't rebirth, then his memories were tampered with.
Chen Shouyi retrieved a shirt from space and put it on. At this point, he had no mood for training: "Where do you live, take me there!"
"Alright alright!" Wang Shengyuan was a bit lost, nodding quickly.
The two left the spatial passage and rode bicycles.
After half an hour, they reached a residential area.
Chen Shouyi checked around Wang Shengyuan's home: "Have any outsiders entered in the past few days?"
"No, I live alone and always keep to myself." Wang Shengyuan said anxiously: "Did you... discover something?"
Chen Shouyi shook his head without speaking.
There was no trace of energy, nor footprints; everything looked untouched by external forces. But from another perspective, it further indicated the power and mystery of this unknown intruder. He checked each room: "Let's go!"
Wang Shengyuan paused, a bit confused: "Chief Advisor Chen, where are we going next?"
"First to my place, I'll make a call, and there will be a special plane to take you to the capital. You didn't think this matter had simply ended, did you?"
