Chapter 874: Chapter 415: Farewell
Gu Jianlin lay unconscious in the tent, his body evidently covered in cold sweat, resembling a lifeless corpse.
Moon Princess knelt on the plush carpet, lifted his head onto her lap, and gently touched his forehead. It felt icy cold, and she knew he had another nightmare.
Ever since this big boy beca an Ascender, it has always been like this. Whenever he leaves her sight, he cos back bruised and battered, nearly losing his life several tis. She wonders how such a person thinks, taking everything so seriously, never fearing to exhaust himself to death one day.
When he was weaker, at least she could keep an eye on him.
Now that he’s stronger, and even managed to create a clone, she can no longer control him.
She truly can’t handle him.
Even though her eyes show reproach, she doesn’t actually bla him.
Because she happens to like this kind of personality.
She constantly reminds herself to protect him better in the future.
Vaguely, Gu Jianlin let out a muffled groan, his face pale as paper.
Moon Princess frowned in concern, brought a cup of hot milk to his lips, hoping he would drink it.
Many years ago, whenever this big boy had a fever, he would have nightmares. Back then, she didn’t know how to take care of people, panicking at ho, until she gave him a cup of hot milk, which finally cald him down.
Unfortunately, Gu Jianlin began to struggle violently, his pale face beaded with cold sweat, as if he had dreamt of sothing terrifying, almost knocking over the hot milk at his lips.
Moon Princess glanced at him with a hint of grievance, drank the hot milk herself, then leaned down to kiss his lips.
His lips were cold, devoid of warmth.
With a kiss, Moon Princess transferred the hot milk into his throat, her face turning slightly red like frost in the sunlight, finding such actions sowhat embarrassing.
Kissing him face-to-face allowed her to mock his embarrassed expression, thus easing her own awkwardness.
In these circumstances, it felt a bit like she was sneaking a taste.
At that mont, her radio transmitter crackled with static, abruptly jerking her back to reality.
No one spoke; only the continuous sound of static persisted.
It’s coded language.
And it’s the Night Watcher’s coded language.
"Who are you?"
Moon Princess tapped the frequency, responding, "Are you a Night Watcher?"
"I am not a Night Watcher, but I am fluent in all coded languages of the world. I use this code to gain your trust. We collaborated at Shinjuku Station; you should rember ."
The mysterious man replied, "I am No. 1."
Moon Princess was stunned: "You are Shadow."
No. 1 sent a ssage through the transmitter, "Yes, I am Shadow. Now you must rember, the Order World has undergone trendous changes. The President of the Ether Association was betrayed by the Gold and silver Catastrophes and his fate is unknown. Zero refused to be recaptured as a hostage and exposed his ability of Ancient God Transformation, which led to a worldwide manhunt. Rember, Gu Jianlin’s identity can no longer be used, or it will invite lethal consequences."
"As for your parents, they have already been evacuated to a safe area. I know your real identity, and your true self is with your parents, so you should be very clear."
No. 1 paused slightly, "The reason for urgently contacting you is to make you recall sothing. Over the past decade, you should be well aware of what has happened to Gu Jianlin; you should know he is a human."
Moon Princess lifted her delicate fingers, wiping the milk from her lips, her eyes confused and shocked.
"Ancient God Transformation?"
She softly murmured, "How is this possible?"
It seed like an absurd tale, yet a series of details suddenly made sense in her mind.
Things that previously seed unreasonable about this boy now suddenly explained themselves.
No. 1 responded, "I know you don’t believe it, but it is indeed true. No one in the world could mistake it. That is the aura of an Ancient God’s resurrection, especially since he also used... the Ancient Divine Language."
This is definitive evidence.
As the holder of the You Ying Law, whether they be the Qing and Chi Double Kings, or silver and Gold.
Without exception, they all cannot use the Ancient Divine Language.
Yet Gu Jianlin can, which proves he is a mber of the Ancient God Clan!
However, Moon Princess felt her mind go blank, as too many inexplicable things flooded her thoughts.
Because Gu Jianlin was clearly a human before becoming an Ascender.
Have you ever seen an Ancient God catch a cold, have a fever, get stomach flu, vomit and diarrhea, have nightmares, and call out for their parents?
The Ancient God Clan doesn’t reproduce through mating; they are nurtured using Spiritual Gene.
This theory is mystical and enigmatic, but the current human understanding of the Ancient God Clan’s reproductive thods is unclear.
Historically, there have been human females offered to the Gods as Female Sacrifices, but their pregnancy rate is abysmally low, with only a handful of examples through the ages, and most resulting in stillbirth.
So researchers have conducted postmortem analyses on these deathly infants, finding that they were all, without exception, human.
Gu Jianlin has a legitimate birth certificate; he indeed has parents.
So where does the problem lie?
Moon Princess fell into deep thought, because this big boy has never left her sight since he was seven, and his past life has been as blank as a sheet of white paper, leaving no trace.
