Chapter 1318 - 211: How Could Ian Be Such an Inconvenient Name!
CHAPTER 1318: CHAPTER 211: HOW COULD IAN BE SUCH AN INCONVENIENT NAME!
"I might also be an Echo."
Ian signaled Yisen and Sio to rest aside as he wanted some quiet time alone, then sat beside the dark golden dragon body, pondering this question.
The heat released by the dragon began to gradually decrease, the boiling hot water started to cool down again in the Ice Dragon’s Nest, and the short-lived turmoil in the white-haired boy’s mind also slowly calmed.
"My Heart Light Body’s Guiding Star can send various data and information to my parallel world self."
"When I am about to die, I can transmit a part of my memory, skills, and mental model to the next ’Ian’."
"In a certain sense, this is creating my own ’Mirror’ or ’Echo’."
"With this, a question worth pondering arises."
"Am I the previous ’Ian’ with the Guiding Star Heart Light Body, a ’Mirror’ or ’Echo’ created by transmitting information after failure?"
"As it stands, I indeed am."
"Moreover, this cycle of mirrors and echoes has likely continued many times."
Clearing his thoughts, Ian raised his head thoughtfully, then smiled: "Whether I am an Echo or not is irrelevant; this psychic ability of mine is rather impressive."
"Interesting!"
Within just two seconds, he shifted from ’Am I an Echo?! (Shocked)’ to ’I am an Echo... (Contemplative)’ to ’I am an Echo! (Smiling with thumbs up)’.
At this moment, Ian enthusiastically unfolded his psychic abilities and Heart Light Body observation.
In fact, Ian had long been doubtful about his psychic abilities and Heart Light body, and had a premonition about the name ’Echo’.
When he discovered that his ’Clairvoyant Vision’ could easily check the possibilities and directions of most events without delay, Ian began to doubt if there truly existed such a convenient Prophet Psychic...
Though incredibly powerful, it’s less a prophet and more a premonition, a sense warning based on ’experience’.
The truly prophetic aspect of Clairvoyant Vision was actually the ’Prophetic Dream’.
Either of the two prophetic visions, the Worm Nest and the Spirit Disaster, taken individually to others would be enough to prove their prophetic identity... yet Ian knows both, and most likely there are far more than just two.
However, this Prophetic Dream could also be a derivative of the ’Parallel Temporal Observation’ ability.
The Heart Light Body ’Guiding Star’ further transforms directly into a major platform of parallel world Ian. Such an outrageous Heart Light Body, even without any direct combat power, is excessively powerful.
Of course, back then Ian never thought of himself as the ’Echo’, a more powerful but failed Ian from a parallel world, thrown onto himself in another parallel world."
He merely felt his ability was excessively powerful, not quite like what an average Third Energy Level could have.
What truly made Ian suspect he might be related to the ’Echo’ was his unparalleled, invincible wisdom and talent!
"Thinking back carefully, back on Earth I was considered a young prodigy; I had just graduated and was invited to participate in colonization rocket maintenance. With that credential, I could easily join any company or research lab, even work at the Seventh Mechanical Industry Department, the true space industry hub of the Federation."
Murmuring in his heart, Ian’s gaze sharpened: "But even with such achievements, I would only be a ’first-class scholar’. Achieving a few presentable research and developments in a lifetime would already be the limit, still far from creating a system, heralding an era as a contemporary master and pioneer."
"Moreover, on Earth, I was actually very reclusive, instinctively distancing myself from others, focused on my own career as a ’loner’... back then, I actually quite disliked talking to others, though I developed social abilities, I would rather not speak if possible."
"But on Terra, I not only became a Pioneer, even interpersonal relationships came naturally, easily capturing others’ goodwill—looks indeed play a role, but in general, I’m no longer ’reclusive’..."
"On the contrary, I now actually quite enjoy interacting with people, especially pointing things out to others, so as to be a mentor."
"My personality has a certain deviation before and after the awakening!"
In fact, it’s not just wisdom and personality; Ian also confirmed that his obsession with ’Above the Sky’ is also quite pathological to a certain extent.
Yes. In the Terra Continent, a belief must be strong to the point of being ’pathological’ in normal people’s eyes to condense a Heart Light Body... but Ian was inherently so determined, if it were on Earth, he would have long been considered obsessive-compulsive and sent to a psychologist for treatment.
Earth Ian indeed was very close to the danger line, but at least a normal person who passed.
So, the truly important questions arise.
"Assuming I am an Echo, how did the previous ’Ian’ transmit information? How strong a power is required to transmit information, and what information did he transmit to me?"
Ian cleared his mind, asking and answering himself one by one: "Of course, it’s relying on the Heart Light Body ’Guiding Star’. This is clearly an extremely rare, even ’unique’ Heart Light Body, otherwise, two Guiding Stars communicating with each other would be much more efficient than searching and trading world by world as I’m doing now."’
