Chapter 1368 - 10: Possible Truths (Part 1)

The life of being a battery is always boring.

It only needs to exert power, merge into the cradle star, and it only needs to receive power, solidifying the foundation of the cradle star.

It’s like a hose, with one person delivering and the other receiving. It appears to be the grand feat of saving a planet, but in reality, only those involved would know how tedious it truly is.

So, to make life less tedious, they embarked on intimate conversations about the "glorious past."

The two supreme beings of the world, from the initial days of the Demon Realm, talked about the Celestial Gift Event, then the Battle of the Twin Kings, and finally, everything thereafter...

"Do you still remember Augus from Mier’s Big World, the little guy?"

The Dominator spoke, the Origin Energy enveloping its side, rendering its figure hazy and indistinct, but the boundless and extraordinarily dazzling aura made it the sole presence here.

Even though offering an immense energy sufficient to sustain a world is just a breeze to the Dominator, hardly worth mentioning.

Compared to the Dominator, the Demon Lord appeared much dimmer—being the ultimate victor of the Battle of the Twin Kings, yet burdened with the patched-up Demon Realm, which had long since exhausted the Demon Lord over countless ages.

Its voice was crisp and clear.

"Of course I know... Mier’s Big World, that was indeed a very long, long time ago."

"If I remember correctly, that should have been the beginning of all these things, the first world we invaded? At that time, you had just revived the New Demon Race, and I had just recruited some Treasure Land Protectors, without even fully understanding the Celestial Gift Stone. Especially, you created someone like Augus... which really startled me back then."

Though the Dominator said this, there was no expression of being surprised on its face at all.

Hearing this, the Demon Lord could only give a wry smile.

"I underestimated the speed of your recovery, which harmed Augus and even allowed you to find a way to end all this..."

"That was my mistake..."

...

One year after Wen Yu took over as Commander-in-Chief of Yanjing.

Intelligence from Mil’s Treasure Land came in.

Mil’s Big World, Sequence Number 1, Augus.

Nickname: Dominator, King of Kings, Ender of Calamity!

Character traits summarized—typical protagonist of passionate manga.

Life story:

Before the end times, a construction worker, but at the start of the end times, his character suddenly changed—from a typical honest person to someone decisive in slaughter, extremely capable in execution, and possessed extremely strong slaughtering skills.

Augus, with three co-workers and fourteen concubines, formed a force and expanded territory. Among them, Augus seemed to have the foresight ability, and soon unified the entire planet.

After the demon plague descended, Augus fought a hundred battles, winning every one, with his strength continuously increasing.

When the Level 10 level lock opened, Augus repelled the demon plague with supreme divine power. According to the records, at that time, the Demon Tribe was powerless against Mier’s Big World.

In May of the 3319th year in Mil’s Big World’s End of the World Calendar, the Level 11 Augus killed Treasure Land Protector Number 1 and simultaneously declared that the Dominator’s true identity was that of the Demon Tribe, making it Mier’s great enemy! The hostile level far exceeds the Demon Realm!

Mil’s Big World officially declared war on the Dominator.

In the same year, the Demon Tribe withdrew its troops, pausing the war.

In August of the 3319th year in Mil’s Big World’s End of the World Calendar, Augus publicly executed 18 Treasure Land Protectors in the Central Square of Mil’s Holy City, after which a heavenly mutation occurred, and the Dominator appeared.

The great battle began, and after three days, the Holy City was destroyed...

Augus died, his body split into eight pieces, exhibited in the ruins of the Holy City for public display, his death publicly broadcasted worldwide for 30 years before his remains were scattered to the wind.

The Demon Tribe invaded again, and Mil’s Big World was destroyed.

...

"Two points of doubt."

A synthesized electronic voice emanated from the computer, and based on the prior information received, Lin Haifeng offered his speculations.

"Sudden change in character, foreknowledge... this point... is very strange."

"Even including the life file of Heart Lock, there are also strange aspects. His data from the first five years of the end times was entirely lost, there should be some issues here."

"Rebirth..."

"What?"

The fantasy term caught Lin Haifeng and Fran’s eyes, and they both looked toward Wen Yu, who merely let out a low sigh, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"Rebirth is experiencing doomsday once and then by a stroke of fate, being reborn before the doomsday. Yes, you guessed right, both Tang Haofei and I are in such situations. But the difference is, I was reborn by the Demon Lord, making me an enemy of the Dominator; the Dominator’s bounty on me is also based on this. Old Tang, however, was reborn by the joint forces of the Dominator and Earth’s consciousness; he is the true protagonist, with rightful origins, and belongs to the Dominator’s ’direct lineage.’

This ’direct lineage’ term is not entirely accurate, as by Tang One’s past character, he should never have allied with the Dominator.

"Well then, rebirth, that cheat code... tch, I wondered why, despite amassing so many resources, I still couldn’t cultivate powerful experts comparable to you two; it turns out it’s because an early start leads to early critical points, you were bugs from the very beginning."

Lin Haifeng remained silent for a brief moment, then let out a complaint without any particular emotion.

This damn world had become like this, so rebirth might not seem so strange anymore.

Speaking of which, Fran’s time system ability also has effects akin to rebirth. If Fran had the kind of supreme power of Level 12 like the Dominator or Demon Lord, perhaps Fran could also send a few individuals back to the world before the doomsday, achieving the ’rebirth’ effect.

And Wen Yu, at this point in time, had no reason to hide this secret, either—the Dominator and other adversaries already knew who he truly was; it seemed fine for Lin Haifeng and Fran to know about it too.

"Then, a simple deduction, Augus, and Heart Lock should be the so-called reborners."

Wen Yu was also very much in agreement with this point...

In fact, from the moment he learned Tang Haofei was also a rebirner, Wen Yu should have realized that he never had anything special—just luckier to have the Demon Lord’s rebirth gift fall right on his head.

"The second doubt..."

"When Augus killed the Treasure Land Protector and openly declared war on the Dominator, why didn’t the Dominator strip Augus of his power or even directly obliterate him, instead choosing to engage directly."

Regarding this, Wen Yu had his own views.

"He found a way to escape the Dominator’s control... this method, I also know it."

Hearing Wen Yu’s explanation, Lin Haifeng paused slightly before laughing and speaking.

"I really wonder, how many more secrets are you hiding."

"But in your earlier explanation, there were places I disagreed with."

Wen Yu hadn’t gotten a chance to reply when Lin Haifeng interrupted that topic and continued with his deductions.
