Chapter 124 The Future Cannot Be Changed
Chapter 124 The Future Cannot Be Changed
The next morning, Li Ming wondered if he had drunk too much the previous day. How could he have been drunk for so long? However, after saying goodbye to Huang Jue, he felt that there was nothing else to do. Xiao Ye had just gone out to buy breakfast for him, and Li Ming simply began to pack his luggage.
The two of them were also lightly packed and quickly rushed to the airport. Along the way, they talked and laughed, and were in an extremely happy mood. However, when the two were preparing to board the plane, Li Ming suddenly felt something strange. He looked around and found that the airport, which was originally bustling with people, had become unusually quiet and empty.
Li Ming was startled, and a bad feeling came over him. He immediately turned around to look for Xiao Ye, but found that she was also gone. Li Ming's heartbeat accelerated instantly, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. What was supposed to come finally came.
This feeling was not unfamiliar to Li Ming. He was being pulled into the mental space of a psychic. And who else could be affected by it except Karen, whom he had always been afraid of?
Li Ming took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. In this spiritual space, Karen was the only one in control, and any fluctuations in his emotions could lead to unpredictable consequences.
He closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and began to mobilize his special abilities. As his thoughts flowed, an invisible force gradually condensed around him.
Li Ming carefully explored this mysterious spiritual space. He found that Karen's spiritual space was completely different from that of her previous life. The original space was a huge maze built by Karen herself.
With every step deeper into that maze, Kailin's influence on those who enter will grow greater and greater.
However, the scene before Li Ming was very different from before. Not only was there a complicated maze, but there were also countless purple crystal flowers growing on the walls. Li Ming could break through the maze walls with his supernatural power before, but now these flowers on the walls brought him a little danger, especially because these flowers kept emitting purple wine aroma, and this strange aroma was constantly eroding Li Ming's supernatural power barrier.
Just when Li Ming was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard an unusually clear sound of footsteps in the space around him. It was the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the ground, coming from far away and getting closer, as if approaching him step by step, but he could not see any figure.
As the footsteps got closer, Li Ming's heartbeat became more intense. He stood there nervously, trying to find the person hiding in the dark. Finally, he couldn't help but shouted loudly: "Kaylene, I know you are here. What do you want? Come out and say something!"
Li Ming really didn't want to have anything to do with Kailin. His life was very comfortable now and he originally wanted to find a safe place to live in seclusion, but he didn't expect that Kailin would still come to him.
"Hmph~, it seems like you're living a very comfortable life!"
A sweet laugh sounded behind Li Ming, and the scene he was in instantly switched to an office. At this moment, he was standing in front of the table like Karen's employee, and Karen was playing with a transparent dagger in her hand.
Li Ming's pupils shrank when he saw this, and he immediately reached into his arms, only to find that a dagger that he had kept close to his body had disappeared.
"It seems that your strength has improved again. You can actually take things from me without being discovered by my supernatural power. Tell me, what exactly do you want to do? With your current strength, you don't have to go through so much trouble to kill me!"
Kailin was still immersed in the crystal dagger in her hand. She fiddled with the blade gently, as if she had a tacit understanding and connection with the weapon. As she moved, the dagger danced flexibly in the air as if it had life, drawing dazzling streams of light.
But just as Li Ming wanted to continue asking questions, Kailin suddenly changed her gesture and threw the dagger forward. The dagger flew out like a flash of lightning and flew straight towards Li Ming. Facing this sudden attack, Li Ming did not make any evasive moves. He stood quietly in place, and the dagger stopped in front of his eyes in an instant, and then flew directly back to Kailin's hand.
"Tsk! It's boring!"
Li Ming's back was also covered in cold sweat. It was not that he didn't want to hide just now, but he simply didn't react in time. He felt scared only after seeing Karen retract the dagger. However, this was only his psychological activity. On the surface, he still pretended to be calm.
"What on earth do you want to do?"
"Nothing, just to get back the dagger that belongs to me and visit my old friend!"
"Since you have got the things, can I leave? I don't know why you want to build such a business empire. You and I have both experienced the end of the world. Now I just want to find a stable place to live a peaceful life. I will not get involved in anything you do!"
Kailin pointed to the door, "Whatever you want, open that door and you can return to reality!"
"Goodbye!" Li Ming said simply and clearly. He really didn't want to deal with Karen now because he found that Karen's personality was completely different now. She no longer had the calmness she had before, but instead acted a little arrogantly.
But just as he was about to push open the door, Kailin's voice suddenly rang out: "The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. Some things cannot be stopped just because you want them to. As an old friend, I still advise you to improve your strength quickly. You don't have much time left!"
Li Ming's movement to push the door paused, and he turned back to look at Kailin: "What did you know? Why is there not much time left?"
"I know much more than you think. Neither you nor I went back to the past for no reason. The future can never be changed. Your appearance is destined to face a bloody storm, so improve your strength while there is still some time. The end is coming!"
After Kailin finished speaking, her figure and the entire office gradually became transparent. Li Ming quickly shouted, "Impossible, there is no black fog or black rain in this world, and those monsters are even less likely to appear. What are you trying to say?"
At the moment Kailin disappeared, she left behind a sentence: "My Lord said that the future cannot be changed. You are the savior of this era, but you are also a destroyer. If you want to protect the people you want to protect, you must improve your strength. You must do everything you can to enhance your strength when the end of the world comes. You are the most important chess piece on the chessboard. I hope you will not disappoint my Lord's expectations of you!"
"Kay..."
Before Li Ming could finish his words, the illusion was shattered and Li Ming reappeared in the noisy airport. At this time, Xiao Ye pushed him.
"Li Ming, what's wrong with you?"
"Oh! Nothing, I was distracted for a moment. Hey? Where did this bottle on your neck come from?" Li Ming became alert as soon as he saw the bottle made of amethyst.
Xiao Ye touched the bottle on his neck and whispered, "I don't know where this came from. I just had a dream last night. I can't remember what happened in the dream. This seems to be a strange weapon. I told you to use it like this..."
Kailin stood not far away and watched the two of them board the plane together. Suddenly, Zagreus appeared beside her.
"I thought you remembered!"
"It's just some images that flashed through my mind. Maybe Kailin liked him in the past, but that was only in the past. I haven't experienced so much with him, so I don't have such deep feelings. Besides, he has a girlfriend now, and I'm still young and beautiful. With your cool face in front of me, I dream about you day and night!"
Zagros's face darkened. Although Karin seemed to be so powerful outside, she was just a pervert in front of him. She would come to him to complain whenever she had nothing to do, saying that the nights were long and lonely, and only he could fill her hungry heart.
It’s a pity that Zagros doesn’t like this. He is still a child now, and it’s better to stay away from such old ladies.
Seeing Zagros's contemptuous look, Kailin knew that she had failed in seduction again and could only stand aside with a pout.
"It's not long before the world consciousness awakens. You should cash out the Elysee Group as soon as possible and start collecting a large amount of gold and silver. I estimate that the world will be in chaos soon. The supplies you have stockpiled can be exchanged for these things with other forces. After the gold is acquired, you can exchange them for some weapons information with the governments of various countries. The more the better. It would be best if you can get some nuclear weapons. Money is not a problem. At that time, you can even hand over the Elysee Group. I believe they will agree!"
Kailin's expression also changed at this time. "Nuclear weapons, do you want to start the Fourth World War? There is no need. When the time comes, those weird restrictions will be lifted. Few countries can resist it!"
"Is that who I am in your eyes? I just want to collect some technological samples, which may be useful to me in other worlds in the future. Besides, these things are no better than firecrackers to me. They are not enough to destroy the world!"
"Oh! I see. By the way, no one is at my house tonight. Do you want to come to my room and take a look? Wait! I haven't finished yet!"
Zagros didn't want to listen to her trash talk, so he just pulled her back to the office with his sleeve. It seemed that Karen had been too idle recently, so it was time to find something for him to do!
