Chapter 1629: Chapter 697: The Theory of Reproduction

“Hmm?”

Mu You looked at the First Generation Leader in surprise: “You know me?”

From the other party’s words just now, it seemed they already knew of his existence, and even knew he would obtain the Order Divine Power in the future, and might even initiate the Heavenly Dao…

The First Generation Leader shook his head with a smile: “I don’t know you, but I do know someone like you will appear in the future.”

“What’s going on exactly?” Mu You was a bit confused.

“To be precise, Yegor told me. Oh, he’s the current Dawn City Master, the Time Agent. A month ago, he intermittently saw some of the future through his divine powers,” the man said.

“Time Divine Power includes the ‘future’?” Mu You was surprised. He always thought the Time God’s ability was only used in the Dead Zone.

“Not just that, he also controls a portion of the ‘past’ rights. However, the main capabilities of Time Divine Power remain focused on the Dead Zone. The abilities of ‘past’ and ‘future’ are too complex to be grasped by creatures. Even if one manages to control them, it’s difficult to use them normally, allowing only occasional glimpses into some heavenly secrets.”

The man chuckled: “Little Yezi has good luck, mastering a very small portion of the future rights, but he almost completely fails to understand or use the ‘past’ part.”

“As such, to avoid wasting it, he extracted the ‘past’ part from the divine powers separately and condensed it into a special tool.”

“Time Pocket Watch?”

“Yes.”

“…” Mu You’s expression became peculiar, never expecting the Pocket Watch to come about this way.

“We agreed to hide this tool within the program of the World-Creating Mountain and set up a filtering procedure. This Pocket Watch would continuously screen countless Fools born in the future until it finds a person with time affinity who can use the Past Divine Power. This treasure would then automatically replace the originally generated Relic, becoming this person’s initial Relic.”

The man smiled and glanced at Mu You: “It seems you are the lucky one chosen by the Pocket Watch.”

“As per our expectations, you will need to start from scratch, cultivating affinity with the Pocket Watch during your growth, until the day you fully mature. The Past Divine Power hidden within it will naturally break free from the tool and merge with you, becoming your divine power.”

“…”

No wonder the God of Order once said his existence is the result of many people’s manipulation.

He seemed to have been artificially created by past lives as a ‘god’.

Mu You was diligently absorbing the information he had learned from the First Generation Leader, but at this moment, he wasn’t the most shocked one.

Beside them, the young boy watched the two talking back and forth for a long time before he finally snapped out of it.

“Leader, what are you talking about? Withdraw the troops quickly. We don’t have time to waste here…”

The young boy rushed to the man’s side eagerly, pulled at his hem and exclaimed excitedly: “Oh right, I’ve already found the hidden location of the Mind Reading Divine Bone as required by the teacher!”

“Next, we should retreat first, then send someone to retrieve the Divine Bone. Once we have the Mind Reading Divine Power, the difficulty in identifying parasites will be greatly reduced. Coupled with what I’ve seen and heard about the future, if we plan well, we can certainly defeat the Divine Devouring Beast…”

“Zuo Qiu!”

The man suddenly spoke up, interrupting the young boy.

The First Generation Leader looked at the excited young boy with a sigh and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes: “I know the hardships you’ve endured all these years… Sorry for hiding it from you. What you’ve seen of the future, we already knew. Your real mission was never to resurrect us from the start, but to bring him back…” The man pointed at Mu You.

“You knew from the start…?”

The young boy stood frozen, staring at the man, a mix of confusion, bewilderment, and disbelief showing on his face.

“Why…”

The young boy murmured, doubting his life some.

The Leader and the Teacher, they actually knew from the start that this battle would be lost, and the tribe would suffer a devastating blow as a result.

He couldn’t understand why, knowing this, they insisted on going to war, causing so many people to die in vain.

“Your teacher did see the future, but not a fixed future. With our choices and the development of many crucial future timeline nodes, countless possibilities can be born from the future.”

“We can only choose among them the path with the highest success rate, which is to break into the World-Creating Mountain, extract some important privileges from it, and create a game carrier that allows the majority of tribesmen immunity from parasites.”

“But even so, the success rate of this path is less than a quarter, with many nodes along the way that could lead to the plan’s failure. We cannot decisively commit, as this plan demands us as a generation to be its price, too heavy a price.”

“So we need someone to confirm in the future if this path is truly viable…”

“You are the one among the current tribe with the best affinity for Time Divine Power, thus this mission could only be accomplished by you.”

“And now, you’ve successfully confirmed this for us, effectively nullifying the remaining three-quarters of the failure probability with your own strength.”

“Zuo Qiu, you are already a hero, and on the day the Fool achieves ultimate victory in the future, your achievements will be remembered by all future generations!” The man patted the young boy’s shoulder, giving him a few words of encouragement.
