Although the motorbikes were fast, the three Deities were faster
They caught up to the full-speed motorbikes in no time at all, even passing them to block the way ahead.
The four motorbikes stopped.
The young people and the three Deities observed one another.
The three Deities naturally knew these young people’s identities.
Recalling the Law Behemoths’ bounty on Shroud’s head, the young people instantly became cautious of these strangers.
Shroud held the Book of Prophesized Destinies in his hand and asked:
“Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?”
“There’s no one in the wilderness and no food to be found, so when we saw your vehicles, we wanted to hitch a ride and leave this place together” Foresight Deity replied.
Shroud questioned further: “Which domain did you come from?”
Foresight Deity answered: “We’re from the Pantheon”
He turned to Reneedol.
Only to see Reneedol cautiously observing him.
What happened?
She didn’t seem like she reacted to ‘Pantheon’ at all…
Shroud said: “We only have four vehicles; we can’t take you with us”
Scarlet added: “If I remember correctly, there’s a small settlement about 300 miles ahead. With your speed, you’ll be able to reach that place very quickly”
The three Deities exchanged glances.
Poison Deity couldn’t help but ask: “Reneedol, don’t you recognize us?”
The young people’s expressions all changed.
They know Reneedol!?
Reneedol remained cautious and asked in return: “I’ve never met you all before, why would I know you?”
Poison Deity said: “All of us were summoned——-”
“Silence!” Foresight Deity shouted.
Poison Deity stopped talking.
Foresight Deity took two steps forward and stared at Reneedol: “Last night, something big occurred, all the Law Behemoths no longer exists, this world is also undergoing some sort of unprecedented changed, and all of us had forgotten what happened yesterday”
“Everyone forgot a lot of things” Reneedol pondered: “If there was a connection between you all and I, do you have a way to prove that?”
“Reneedol!” Shroud worriedly called out.
“It’s ok, Shroud, I also want to know what exactly I’ve forgotten” Reneedol replied.
Foresight Deity pondered for a while, then stepped aside to make way: “You should go ahead, we’ll think carefully about how to deal with this, then we’ll contact you again”
Reneedol was surprised.
Foresight Deity looked at the young people group and spoke gently: “Go, there aren’t many living people in the settlement up ahead, you all should be feeling hungry as well, so go and eat first, we’ll search for you later”
He gestured to his companions.
Poison Deity and Shadow Deity also stepped aside.
The young people group exchanged glances.
“Come on, we should indeed replenish our stamina” Gu Qing Shan said.
The motorbikes slowly accelerated and rode away from the three Deities.
Very quickly, the four motorbikes disappeared at the end of the horizon, leaving only a cloud of dust behind.
“Foresight Deity, Reneedol seemed to have completely forgotten us, what now?” Poison Deity asked.
“By combining our powers, we should be able to send information back to the Pantheon, we need the wisdom of the Myriad Deities to think——–”
While Foresight Deity was talking, he suddenly stopped.
The three Deities all looked up at the sky.
Only to see a small streak of light descending towards the empty wilderness.
“Let’s take a look!” Foresight Deity said.
“Got it!”
The three Deities leapt forward and quickly ran towards the streak of light.
A few minutes later.
They stood at the border of the crater and looked below.
A broken blade silently laid in the middle of the crater.
The fragments of the blade were still giving off a faint whistling noise.
Foresight Deity leapt down, sat crouched on the ground, then carefully put the fragments of the blade back together.
A faint glow appeared from the blade.
Followed by a long sigh:
「 Too… late… 」
Clank——-
The fragments scattered everywhere; the blade was broken again.
It no longer gave off any whistling noises, the glow on top of the blade also disappeared for good.
Foresight Deity slowly stood up and said: “This blade is dead”
“What did it say just now?” Poison Deity couldn’t help but ask.
Shadow Deity pondered: “It seems to be some sort of language that we’ve never heard before”
Foresight Deity didn’t say anything, he simply picked up the blade’s hilt and carefully examined it.
At the bottom of the wooden blade hilt, two strange characters were engraved.
Foresight Deity took out something from his chest.
——-the blue metallic sphere.
He put the sphere and blade hilt together.
The words [Human realm] were engraved on the blue metal sphere.
Two other characters were engraved on the blade hilt.
“They look like the same style of writing” Shadow Deity commented.
“Indeed, this had far surpassed what I’ve imagined”
Foresight Deity’s expression slowly became serious, causing Shadow Deity and Poison Deity to also feel inexplicably nervous.
“In a single night, all the Law Behemoths were dead, all living beings, including Deities like us, had forgotten what occurred, and some strange things would occasionally fall from the sky——-” Foresight Deity pondered.
“What are you trying to say?” Shadow Deity asked.
“We need to know for sure what happened yesterday, this is very important, extremely crucial, it might be intertwined with the entire Realm of Life and our existence itself” Foresight Deity replied.
“But regardless of what technique we used, we couldn’t recall what happened yesterday” Poison Deity commented.
The three Deities went silent briefly.
“We can’t wait any longer, let’s contact the Pantheon right now” Foresight Deity resolutely said.
Poison Deity and Shadow Deity exchanged glances, then nodded.
…
On the other side.
The young group of four were riding the motorbikes forward.
A few larger trees, fields, and simple houses began to appear in their visions.
Gu Qing Shan patted the motorbike and asked: “How strong were those people earlier?”
An electronic voice resounded from the motorbike: [According to my sensors, the other party of three would have been able to kill two people among you in one minute]
—–that would probably be the young Shroud and Scarlet.
To kill Reneedol, they would most likely need to waste a lot of effort.
Gu Qing Shan, on the other hand, can flee by himself.
But what good would that do?
Having forgotten her Pantheon memories, Reneedol would naturally also forget how to exert her original strength, so she’ll need some time to adjust to her powers.
If this Reneedol died, the newly reborn Reneedol would know about he Samsara, causing Shifu’s obscurement to lose its effect.
The Apocalypse would also descend faster!
If another [Siming] appears…
Gu Qing Shan looked at Reneedol and asked in surprise: “How did you get acquainted with such powerful people?”
Reneedol shook her head: “I’m not sure either, it probably has something to do with my missing memories”
Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt alarms ringing in his mind.
He patted the motorbike again: “I want to report—— I suspect that the previous people want to kill one or all of us”
The motorbike didn’t respond right away.
Bang!
A miniature sphere was shot into the sky while giving off white smoke.
A few moments later.
Conversing voices could be heard from the motorbikes.
A voice they hadn’t heard before spoke: [You have no way to awaken her memories, the memories that you’re missing would also remain missing forever, unable to return]
Foresight Deity’s voice asked: [Then what should we do now?]
[That’s right, even when we braved the dangers of returning to the Realm of Life, this trouble occurred, what should we do now?] Poison Deity also asked.
The voice from before replied: [It can’t be helped, we can only kill her for the next ‘her’ to obtain her previous memories, this way, we would learn about what happened]
[Go, kill Reneedol!]
After that, all the voices disappeared.
The group all changed their expressions.
“They want… to kill me” Reneedol muttered in shock.
A cold electronic voice resounded:
[Real-time monitoring had been established through orbital drone]
[In accordance to the emergency danger response protocol #232, the following conclusion had been drawn:]
[A homicide case is about to occur; its rate of success has been determined to be 99.5%]
The four motorbikes slowed down, eventually stopping in the middle of the road.
They turned into liquid form, converged together, and began to morph again.
[This device is a retro bike professional racing apparatus, not a combat device. Applying optimal protocol to stall time for you]
[Estimated total time of combat: 3 hours, 21 minutes, 19 seconds]
[Combat result: This device will be completely damaged; the enemy will escape]
Following the electronic voice, a 9-meter-tall mechanical robot appeared in front of the group.
A large canon appeared behind its back, pointing towards the direction they came.
Oong oong oong oong——
A lot of noise could be heard from the back of the canon.
Right at this moment, three figures appeared at the end of the road.
[Ready] an electronic voice resounded from the robot.
At the very next second.
A blinding flash of light.
The air current around them was heavily disturbed, causing Scarlet to almost be blown away before Gu Qing Shan caught her.
——followed by a deafening noise.
Boom!!!
Dirt and sand filled the air, the road from earlier had completely disappeared.
[They did not die—–]
[Flee!]
The robot told the group of four.
