AWB Chapter 644 For Me... Freedom!
Chapter 644 For Me... Freedom!
In a dark space, Jiang Ye stood by the chessboard under the light, looking at the person on the left side of the chessboard with disbelief.
How... is this possible??
Jiang Ye stared in disbelief at the face that looked exactly like his own, frozen in place.
The man picked up a white chess piece from the chess box beside him, pondered for a moment, and then slowly placed it on the chessboard.
pat!
The crisp sound of a piece being placed startled Jiang Ye awake.
"Don't even think about it! I won't let you get the key!" A hoarse voice came from the right side of the chessboard.
Jiang Ye looked over at the sound, but it was pitch black there. However, he could vaguely see some unknown substance wriggling.
A moment later, from within the unidentified black substance, a strange giant eye slowly opened, staring intently at the chessboard.
Jiang Ye stared at the giant eye, and an incredibly eerie and chilling feeling welled up in his heart, as if it were staring at everything about him.
He couldn't look away; that eerie giant eye seemed to possess some kind of fatal attraction.
boom!
As a suspended black piece fell, the surrounding darkness vanished instantly, and Jiang Ye looked away, his mind blank.
When he came to his senses, his vision was filled with green.
Jiang Ye was somewhat dazed, looking at the endless green grassland in front of him, feeling as insignificant as a speck of dust.
"You want to pry into your past?"
A voice came from behind, and Jiang Ye immediately turned around, cold sweat dripping from his forehead onto the grass.
Before her eyes was a man who looked exactly like her.
"Who...who are you?" Jiang Ye asked, panting heavily.
"My name is Jiang Ye."
Jiang Ye's pupils suddenly contracted, and he involuntarily took two steps back. "You..."
"Don't be surprised!" the man who called himself Jiang Ye said naturally, "You'll understand later."
Jiang Ye paused for a moment before asking hesitantly, "What exactly is my past?"
The man just said he wanted to peek into the past. Could he be his past self?
"Sigh!" The man sighed. "The past represents the truth, and the truth is often not happiness and beauty, but pain and helplessness."
Jiang Ye frowned. "Then I want to know too. I don't want to be a guinea pig who's kept in the dark about everything."
The man glanced at him, shook his head, and asked, "Did you see that chessboard just now?"
"I see it, but what does this have to do with my past?"
The man pondered for a moment, then said, “I can only tell you that you were once burdened with hatred, and were arranged by others to fight against fate and be an enemy of all living beings.”
"You thought you were free, but in the end you found out that everything was arranged."
Upon hearing these inexplicable words, Jiang Ye's brows slowly furrowed.
Suddenly, the man stared intently into his eyes.
"Don't dwell on the past, just do whatever you want to do now."
"Freedom for me!"
Tears seemed to well up in the man's eyes, and as he raised his hand, Jiang Ye's consciousness seemed to sink to the bottom of the sea.
His consciousness kept jumping through space, unable to stop.
Jiang Ye recalled the man's words, feeling quite puzzled.
Urd's "Past" ability allows him to trace back to the past.
So, the only thing Jiang Ye can be sure of now is that the man who looks exactly like him is his past self.
As for his past experiences... he had no recollection of them.
Jiang Ye didn't understand why, in his memories, he was clearly a time traveler.
Where in this world is there a past? Even if there were...
What role did my past self play in this world of slaying gods and playing gods?
Jiang Ye, filled with many questions, gradually regained consciousness...
……
Mount Fuji in Japan, a relic of the gods.
On the snow-covered mountaintop, Jiang Ye's body lay flat on a clean stone slab.
Lin Qiye sat beside him, quietly waiting.
"Brother Qiye, why won't you let me get close to Brother God King?"
Beside her, Skadi pouted cutely, her voice sounding aggrieved.
Lin Qiye glanced at the girl and said, "Children shouldn't be so clingy."
"Then why are you standing so close to the God King brother!"
"This is just right for adults," Lin Qiye said with a smile.
Shi Kou Ti puffed out her cheeks, put some distance between herself and Lin Qi Ye, and took short strides as she lunged at Jiang Ye.
"I've already told him he can't be disturbed right now."
As a result, Lin Qiye grabbed Shi Kodi by the back of her collar and lifted her up.
Then, he conjured a summoning magic circle with his left hand, and a small mummy wrapped in white bandages poked its head out from the magic circle.
"Mumu, play with her for a bit." Lin Qiye grabbed Mumu and placed her in Shi Kodi's hand.
Mumu tilted her head and a perfectly normal question mark popped out.
"Wow! So cute!" When Skadi saw Mumu, her eyes widened and she hugged her tightly.
She nuzzled Mumu's head with her face and said, "Brother Qiye, Mumu and I are going to play now."
Lin Qiye reluctantly put her down.
Skuld picked up Mumu and ran towards Verdandi and the other person who were not far away.
"Finally gone. Kids are so hard to coax." Lin Qiye shook his head and sat back down next to Jiang Ye.
He gazed silently at Jiang Ye, whose eyes were tightly closed. "Going back to the past? Jiang Ye... you'll remember me?"
I wonder if Urd's ability to trace back to the past will work on Jiang Ye, or if it will make him remember everything from the old world.
Lin Qiye really wanted Jiang Ye to remember the past and to remember him.
But there's another worry: if Jiang Ye remembers the past, will it shatter the dream world?
Complex emotions swirled within him.
"Lin... Qiye."
Ok?
Lost in his memories, Lin Qiye was startled. Seeing that Jiang Ye had opened his eyes, he quickly went forward to help him up.
"So? Have you remembered your past?" he asked.
Jiang Ye rubbed his dizzy head and shook his head, saying, "I met my past self, but he refused to tell me about the past."
Jiang Ye told Lin Qiye about meeting the man.
As Lin Qiye listened, his eyes suddenly became moist, and he slowly lowered his head.
So... you're still blaming me.
Indeed! I'm the one who arranged your life, I'm sorry!
Lin Qiye felt a pang of self-reproach.
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Ye noticed that Lin Qiye's mood was off.
Lin Qiye shook his head. "It's nothing. I just feel a little sorry for you that you couldn't remember the past."
Jiang Ye smiled and patted Lin Qiye on the back. "What's there to regret? You'll find out sooner or later."
He stood up and glanced at the snow-covered mountaintop.
"What about the rest?"
"They have already evacuated and returned to Great Xia."
Jiang Ye nodded. "Then let's go back to Daxia."
"it is good……"
Jingle Bell--
Lin Qiye was interrupted by a cell phone ringing. He saw Jiang Ye take a satellite phone out of his pocket.
"Zuo Qing." Jiang Ye frowned as he looked at the caller ID.
The call connected, and a calm voice came through.
"Jiang Ye! How are things going on your end?"
"Oh, it's already resolved. What's up?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. "Resolved? The gods of Takamagahara... never mind, let's talk about it when you get back to Great Xia."
"Now there is a new task that needs to be assigned to you."
new task?
Jiang Ye was taken aback. "What mission?"
"Travel to the Nine Realms and find a person surnamed 'Chen'!"
