Chapter 311: Vol4 Ch36: Sothing’s not right
Translator: La0o9
As everyone in the Ultra Space-Ti Squad entered the phone booth, they instantly exited the tiline with a flash of light.
“What’s the situation?” Major Cage dismounted from his exoskeleton and asked Rip who was sitting next to a machine.
“Still in chaos... alright” a large amount of data was flowing through the screen in front of him. As he spoke, the data began to show consistency again, so he went back to work, transcribing this data into a visual form for everyone to see.
...
Due to the Ultra Space-Ti Squad’s interference, the Temporal Explosion was detonated prematurely, causing the undeads and Dino Sapiens to lose a large number of crucial personnel, leading to their failure and the success of this rebellion.
A few undead and Dino Sapiens managed to infiltrate the Central tribe’s army and city guards, but due to the loss of manpower, they were forced to go through with the rebellion despite their lacking preparations.
The other tribes also took this chance to rise up, several small hit squads of elites attacked Central city directly. The undead and Dino Sapiens took this chance to break through the tribe’s defenses to enter the altar of the Divine fla, coming into direct contact with the golden fire.
Mi You and Central Huo managed to arrive just in ti with their n and engaged in combat on top of the altar.
In the end, Central Huo borrowed the explosive force of the Divine fla, paying his life to kill the Dino Sapiens of the Raptor group; this ti, both Chrysosaurus and Fla Dino didn’t manage to escape.
On the other hand, Central Huo’s death caused the Divine fla to fully activate, displaying the glorious grid of the Divine fla that covered the sky, twisting both space and ti. Humanity thus beca scattered to various places in the world’s present, past, and even future.
The Central tribe lost their heir to the Divine fla, while none of his heirs managed to inherit it, leading to many believing they had been discarded by the Divine fla. Without this orthodoxy backing them, a rebellion on an even larger scale erupted.
This ca to be known as the Great War, with many tribes becoming enemies, as well as allies with one another. The concept of ‘nations’ began to form, and with the rise of nations, even more wars took place.
Occasionally, a common sovereign would rise, but their reign wouldn’t last, at least not until a thousand years later when a king of great wisdom and might rose to power. He conquered every other nation and placed their capitals within his range of influence, forming an empire and declaring himself Emperor.
Alas, even an unparalleled man of great wisdom had his own worries, lifespan being one of them.
...
“The next pivotal point is right here, to get rid of the undead tribe” Rip said as he looked at the screen.
“Rory is right...” The Doctor lightly said, then suddenly scowled and smiled: “It seems the long years have affected my mories. Rip is right, through our guidance, the Mi clan whose speciality lies in eliminating the undead tribe has appeared, and so has ‘his’ fated enemy”
Hearing The Doctor getting his na wrong, Rip furrowed his eyebrows slightly, feeling as if sothing was wrong with his current life.
In his mories, he began as a mber of an organization called the Ti Masters who held possession of a certain temporal anomaly. Due to the death of his wife, Amy, at the hands of the immortal temporal criminal Savage, he used the Ti Masters’ anomaly to gather a team to kill Savage. Even though he managed to succeed, he also destroyed the Ti Masters in the process, after which he was recruited by the SCR Foundation.
The Doctor miscalling his na caused Rip to recall another life. He knew a person very similar to The Doctor and followed him on an adventure through ti. In the end, he ran into a certain kind of statue lifeforms, these living statues weren’t the sa as the undead, they seed to hold temporal abilities, which one of them used to take him to the past, where he died from old age. It felt like he had lived almost his entire life as a Centurion who waited for 2000 years.1
This bit of mory was extrely faint, so faint that it only took Rip a mont’s lapse to imdiately forget that he had it in the first place, which took form in the trembling of the phone booth as it landed.
The Ultra Space-Ti Squad exchanged glances, feeling a strange sense of deja vu.
However, the sound of knocking at the very next mont caused them to forget this strange sensation. A tall man could be seen standing on the outside of the phone booth, curiously looking in through the window.
“Liang...” Black Widow was a bit surprised to see him, then realized what was going on. He was a mber of this generation’s Mi clan, except he looked so similar to Mi Liang that Black Widow was a bit stunned when she saw him, seeing how she had also spent so ti alone with Liang.
However, after the very first impression, they noticed that the two of them were completely different people. Mi Liang carried with him a stable, heavy aura that always looked back to the past; while this Mi Ze wasn’t the sa, he seed to have countless thoughts in his head that jumped all over the place.
“The great ancestor’s diary had spoken of this phone booth. It is a phone booth, right? I can’t believe there would be a day when I actually see it” Mi Ze curiously looked at the phone booth and the Ultra Space-Ti Squad who were inside, proudly saying to himself.
Mi Ze had received news that soone had found a statue with a mask in its hand. This statue was highly probable to be the progenitor of all undead, as well as the wicked stone mask that was the beginning of everything, so he hurriedly ca running, only to see this phone booth making its sudden landing.
“Ahaha, this great one is definitely favored by Heaven. Once I defeat Xu Fu and destroy the mask, would I be able to leave my na in history?” Mi Ze chuckled triumphantly as he thought about his rosy future, then excitedly asked the mbers of the Ultra Space-Ti Squad: “You guys are able to travel through ti, then do you know if this great one’s na was left in the future?”
“Probably” Black Widow smiled and glossed this issue over. If history had taken its natural course, the Mi clan wouldn’t have existed in the first place. Without the stone demon mask incident, the original disaster would have been the Earthbound phenonon, which resulted in the Xu tribe being destroyed and integrated into another tribe, which were then wiped out during the Great War.
However, since Xu Fu would use the fake na Xufu to deceive the emperor during this tiline, and Mi Ze’s destiny was to face Xu Fu, regardless of whether or not he succeeded, his na would still be recorded in the history books. Although, could this jumpy young man really win against Xu Fu?
The Mi clan was only a possible branch of the tiline that they helped guide and prolong, while Xu Fu borrowing the power of the emperor to build his own undead empire was another possible branch. In that branch of the tiline, Xu Fu was the Protagonist, he would receive the reinforcent of the tiline itself which would be displayed as the unique characteristic of extre luck.
If Mi Ze failed, the Ultra Space-Ti Squad would have to pay a heavy price to interfere with this historical mont. This was different from the Tower of Babel incident, the Raptor group had both a possibility to succeed and fail their plan, so the Ultra Space-Ti Squad only needed minimal effort to ensure their failure.
This ti around, if they didn’t interfere, Xu Fu’s undead empire tiline would have definitely succeeded. Their guidance of the Mi clan only served to introduce a possibility of failure into the tiline, it was still highly probable for the undead empire tiline to beco real.
“Regardless, we have to succeed. A large number of undeads have already appeared in the future, if we fail here, we would also disappear, and the tiline would be completely changed. Wasn’t this our goal in the first place? To stop the undead tiline from resurging” Black Widow solemnly said.
The other mbers of the Ultra Space-Ti Squad nodded, but so of them suddenly felt that sothing was wrong, but couldn’t really tell what.
