The fiery sun slowly sank into the earth along the undulating lines of the mountains.
A gentle stirring breeze blew past He Ao’s ear.
He bowed his head and placed the rhombus-shaped crystal in his hand, glowing with a gray light, into the dark brown glass container.
While the Tuning Master was being pursued by his good friends, the ’Hao Yi’ clone was not idle and controlled the Velora to retrieve the large Eye of Truth Fragnt used to awaken the King Angel’s reason from the depths of Research Institute 195.
However, He Ao did not see the King Angel there.
In fact, by the ti he reached the battlefield, the King Angel had already opened space and fled.
He Ao speculated that the insane consciousness had regained control of the King Angel’s body, causing him to flee the battlefield to avoid danger.
Because of He Ao’s presence, the Tuning Master also did not have the opportunity to chase after the King Angel.
And after that, He Ao never saw any trace of the King Angel again.
Strictly speaking, the King Angel played a significant role in this incident, both with the ’hints’ for He Ao in the early stages and joining the battle later, holding up the Tuning Master alongside Li Cheng.
His ’help’ greatly increased the success rate of He Ao’s plan, enhancing the chances of victory.
If this battlefield could be rated, in a sense, the King Angel could earn a ’gold dal for support.’
But in fact, the appearance of the King Angel was beyond He Ao’s expectations and was not part of his plan.
However, after successfully ascending to an Angel and mastering the ability of the ’mory Inheritor,’ He Ao also realized that all of this seed not so ’unexpected.’
The reason the King Angel was always at Research Institute 195, perfectly intercepting He Ao and Li Cheng, was because the Fate Spinning Wheel attempted to influence his mory and destiny through edge modification, attempting to ’script’ his actions.
But the King Angel himself was insane, without reason, and did not have particularly complete mories for the Fate Spinning Wheel to manipulate.
When the Fate Spinning Wheel tried to control the King Angel’s behavior, it actually interfered with the balance between madness and reason within him, increasing the proportion of reason.
And so the wonder of fate presented itself at this mont.
The Fate Spinning Wheel thought it was playing a beautiful move, but in fact, it laid the groundwork for its own destruction.
The King Angel, with reason amplified, not only failed to eliminate He Ao’s clone and Li Cheng, but under his reason’s control, passed the ’key information’ for ascending to Angel through the consciousness space to He Ao.
And it was precisely by obtaining this key information that He Ao was able to ultimately see through the plan of the Fate Spinning Wheel, maintain his self, and defeat the consciousness of the Fate Spinning Wheel, completing his ascension.
While recovering his reason, the King Angel also participated in the subsequent battle, holding back the Tuning Master and extinguishing the Fate Spinning Wheel’s last ray of hope for potential ’rescue.’
Although Star Shadow was also present at that ti, Star Shadow’s strength was not like that of the Tuning Master, sufficient to interfere with the deeper layers of the world.
Moreover, with the Tuning Master’s sensitivity, he could also detect the ’abnormality’ within He Ao at that ti.
If at the final crucial mont the Tuning Master had appeared on the battlefield, it could probably help the Fate Spinning Wheel to a certain extent, but Star Shadow couldn’t achieve this, and Star Shadow even couldn’t detect what exactly was happening within He Ao.
The ’road to success’ that the Fate Spinning Wheel paved for itself was actually leading it towards destruction.
This is the wonder of fate, but also its trickery. This power is like a poisonous beautiful flower, enchanting yet dangerous.
However, although the King Angel was seriously wounded, he should still be alive.
He should be recuperating sowhere in the ruins now.
It’s just unknown whether they will et the rational or mad version of him next ti.
This angel, perhaps a ’forr governor’ of the ruins’ civilization, also carries many secrets.
The ’Velora’ entered the Main World carrying an array pointing toward this angel.
The first opening of the ruins passage was about eighteen years ago, whereas the ti when Velora disappeared from the Main World was twenty years ago.
This indicates that due to so unknown reason, this vehicle entered the ruins before everyone else, prior to the officially recognized start ti of the ruins.
Then acquired the ability to traverse space within the ruins and was marked toward the King Angel, ’returning’ to the Main World not long ago.
Besides the Velora, the King Angel himself also seems to harbor so ’stories.’
From the mories in the consciousness space, it seems the angel of the ruins civilization once had a plan inviting the King Angel to participate, but the King Angel did not join.
Yet, when the civilization of the ruins was completely destroyed, the King Angel did not perish in that destructive war like the three major angels but fell into madness.
These secrets may be answered the next ti they encounter the King Angel.
Provided, of course, that this angel is not in complete madness.
Closing the brown glass container lid, He Ao opened the other two smaller glass containers and placed two small Eye of the World Fragnts into them.
One of the fragnts was at the Beidu headquarters and was used by He Ao to awaken Rudel’s self, which he recovered upon returning.
The other was in Xidu, used to maintain Liu Zhengyun’s self and existence.
After pulling Rudel back from the rift in ti and space, He Ao also made a trip to Xidu.
Liu Zhengyun’s condition was much better than Rudel’s, and by the ti He Ao arrived, Liu Zhengyun had already awakened and regained most of his reason.
He Ao eliminated the pollution from the Fate Spinning Wheel on Liu Zhengyun, helping him stabilize his self and recovered the Eye of the World Fragnt.
However, Liu Zhengyun’s body still had a clear tendency toward instability and required rest and adjustnt of his reason.
Although he strongly requested to return to the Research Institute to help He Ao handle so subsequent arrangents, He Ao still told him to stay in Xidu to recuperate for a while.
Under these circumstances, Liu Zhengyun recomnded Zhang Ansha to help He Ao with so of the aftermath tasks.
The Fate Spinning Wheel modified the mory of the Main World’s people through the mysticism connection with the City of Rong Guang, which now in fact points to He Ao.
Thus, He Ao could use this mysticism connection to restore the mory of all those whose mory was modified, and his mory had already been reset during his ascension.
Zhang is reliable, so He Ao accepted Liu Zhengyun’s suggestion and invited Zhang to join the core team handling the subsequent events.
"How is Director Li doing now?"
A slightly ethereal and weak voice sounded from behind He Ao.
The white-haired girl with the green Magic Wand walked up to He Ao’s side and softly asked.
"He is still in a coma and will need so ti to stabilize his condition." He Ao replied softly.
He Ao had been busy with various things along the way and hadn’t had the chance to send Miss Goya back, so she temporarily stayed here.
As He Ao packed up the glass container in his hand, the Velora erged from the void, and ’Hao Yi’ stepped out from the Velora.
He looked up at He Ao, then at Goya beside him, observing Goya’s pale and sowhat weak cheeks, and slowly said, "Your fruit was a great help, thank you."
The fruit helped ’Hao Yi’ regain strength, giving him the energy to draw the array and temporarily stabilize Li Cheng’s breath.
"It’s best if I can help." Goya, seemingly not expecting ’Hao Yi’ to appear suddenly, was slightly stunned and softly said, "There’s only so much I can do."
"Does that fruit harm you as well?" ’Hao Yi’ gazed at her weak body, speaking softly.
"It’s sothing new that I developed myself. It can store life force for so ti, mixed with my ability to make my power effective remotely to so extent." Goya said softly, but did not elaborate further.
But He Ao understood.
Goya’s ability seems to have an effect of ’shared life’.
The ’healing’ of that fruit is not complete healing; it also includes Goya sharing part of the damage with them.
At that ti, in Goya’s ’mory’, ’Hao Yi’ was a henchman of the Evil God attempting to destroy the world.
In that situation, being able to bring out sothing like this indeed required great courage.
"Thank you." ’Hao Yi’ nodded lightly, speaking again.
Upon hearing ’Hao Yi’s’ words, Goya was slightly startled, then gently gripped the magic wand, speaking slowly, "It’s what I should do."
"By the way," ’He Ao’ suddenly looked at Goya and interjected, "Miss Goya, do you know the Leader of Daybreak?"
"Huh?" Goya was startled upon hearing this. She regained her composure, looked at He Ao, and thought for a mont,
"I had brief ’communication’ with him, but it was all through ’ssage transmission’. At that ti, the World Tree had just been established, and the Dawn Organization was active in the Western Lands. The two organizations had so conflicts, and we communicated sowhat through ’agents’."
Her gaze shifted slightly upward as if recalling sothing, "That guy is so mysterious, never showing himself truly. Neither Rudel nor I have ever seen him, and it seems Jie An hasn’t seen him either. Maybe Director Li knows sothing?
"The people he finds are also mysterious, keeping things hidden with no information available."
She lowered her head, strands of white hair brushing her cheek, slender white fingers holding her chin, "The only information I know now is that a bandit nad Hu Wen seems to have taken over most of Daybreak’s organization, becoming its biggest figure outside.
"However, this guy is peculiar, even setting rules for those ruthless people at Daybreak."
She pondered, "Maybe capturing him will reveal sothing?"
"Cough——" Listening to the white-haired girl’s words, He Ao couldn’t help but cough lightly.
"What’s the matter?" Goya quickly turned her gaze, looking at He Ao.
"Nothing, nothing, just maybe my injuries haven’t fully healed." He Ao quickly replied.
"Do you need treatnt?" Goya raised the magic wand, looking at He Ao, "Though the effect of my healing on you may not be as good now."
"No need, no need," He Ao hurriedly waved his hand, looking over at ’Hao Yi’, picked up three glass containers, "You guys chat, I’m going to store these."
With that, he directly stored the containers and walked towards the side.
Goya, sowhat bewildered, turned her gaze to Hao Yi.
"Uh," He Ao, controlling his clone, looked at the girl beside him, pointing toward the Velora, "Shall I send you back?"
"Okay." Goya nodded slightly.
"Speaking of which, what kind of person do you think the leader of Daybreak is?"
He Ao walked with Goya toward the open door of Velora, asking quietly.
"Once the structure of the World Tree stabilized, I seldom dealt directly with these matters. Rudel was handling them," Goya shook her head, pondering after a brief silence, "But I feel like he doesn’t care much about the ’Daybreak’ organization?"
She contemplated for a mont, speaking softly, "It’s like he casually set up a sign, recruited so people, but doesn’t seem to care about the organization’s survival, nor the lives of his subordinates?"
"He pays no attention to how his subordinates manage the organization, and those ’rules’ Hu Wen made are actually similar to a positive organization, sparking considerable opinions within Daybreak, but he doesn’t mind, either,"
She pondered, "Despite his legendary B-level, he never seems to stand up for his subordinates. If they die, they just die, he’ll replace them with another group, and although his power is rumored to be strong, it seems no one has ever seen him in action."
"Is that so···"
Listening to her words, He Ao mused softly.
The two stepped through Velora’s open door.
The speeding train once again plunged into the void.
——
Within the Trapped Destiny Plate
Goya had already been sent back to the Western Lands.
Standing on the cracked earth, He Ao’s true self looked down at his mobile phone.
The phone had only a brief ssage [The Daybreak Organization is temporarily under your full control.]
The phone belonged to ’Hu Wen’, and the sender of the ssage was ’Leader’.
The authorization ssage for ’Hu Wen’ also reached other main mbers of Daybreak.
He Ao tried to call back, but the response was still a failure to connect.
He Ao also attempted to find the leader of Daybreak using mysticism related to himself, but found he couldn’t locate anyone with such a symbolic identity.
This Leader of ’Daybreak’ seems to hide quite a few stories.
Putting away the phone, He Ao raised his head and looked at the blank stele standing before him.
He turned his gaze and looked at the little stick figure soaring into the sky painted on the back of the stele depicting martial arts.
In the ’introduction’ of the Trapped Destiny Plate, there was such a sentence, ’But no one noticed that in that illusory world, there was an illusory spirit that touched the edge of the world.’
It was precisely because of this ’touch’ that fate and divine beings noticed the Trapped Destiny Plate, ultimately leading to its destruction.
This ’touch’, where did it co from? What kind of ’spirit’ could touch the edge of the world? For what purpose?
He Ao turned back, looking at the blank stele before him.
What kind of conditions must the Martial Arts Angel fulfill?
The densely lined steles were arrayed behind him, spread across the cracked earth, and positioned beneath the sky veined with horizontal stripes.
They seed like ancient tombstones standing in this world where life had already ceased.
The ticking countdown, at this mont, reached its end.
