Chapter 197
"My great and merciful Buddha Mother...you can definitely hear my wish...you can definitely..."
Chapter 236 Bad News for Raphael
After learning that Chen Jing had regained consciousness, Yegetos and Baiaji were so excited that they almost cried.
Although Qiao Youning has been comforting them and saying that it is okay and that Chen Jing is simply over-exhausting his life force, there are still some worries...
after all.
He is the only king of deep space.
After him, no creature will be able to become the king of deep space.
This is the prophecy of King Huang.
They believe so.
Li Mobai soon got the news of Chen Jing's awakening.
He arrived at Sentinel Ridge at around nine o'clock at night, carrying two bags of late-night snacks.
"I knew you were tough!"
This was the first thing Li Mobai said when he walked in. Before Chen Jing could say anything, his second words came out.
"Is that golden throne in your hands?"
"Oh, I don't even know what you are talking about..." Chen Jing took two bags of midnight snacks from his hand, while Qiao Youning ran to the kitchen to get bowls and chopsticks.
Yegetos and Baiage did not come to join in the fun. After all, the chef Qiao Youning was here. They had already filled their stomachs by the time they had dinner, and they were wandering around in the sky at the moment...
"Don't act stupid."
Li Mobai took the dinner plate from Qiao Youning, spread the barbecue wrapped in tinfoil on the plate, and looked at Chen Jing as if he was looking at a fool.
"You rushed to Antarctica in such a hurry, not because of what else the Golden Throne could be... It's an additional question, right?"
Chen Jing heard that he had guessed that he was in charge, so he stopped hiding it and nodded yes.
"It seems I guessed right! I said it must be an additional question!" Li Mobai smiled and said happily, "As long as that thing falls into your hands, I don't want to take advantage of others!"
"Sit down quickly." Qiao Youning divided her chopsticks and went to the refrigerator to get a soda. "The situation outside has changed too fast during this period. You should also tell him."
"I know."
Li Mobai took out the cigarette case from his pocket and glanced at Chen Jing.
"You whip it, you whip it!" Chen Jing said with a sneer.
"What a realistic thing...can you eat someone with a short mouth and take advantage of someone with short hands?" Li Mobai complained loudly, "The current situation outside can be said to be simple or complex, anyway...I am now a member of the [Ether Association] ]’s vice president.”
"It's only been a few days! Got promoted so quickly!? Did you make a deal with your leader PY?" Chen Jing asked in disbelief.
"What the hell..." Li Mobai started to curse, but in the end he swallowed it back, "I'm capable enough! I'll be promoted naturally! I deserve the title, you know!"
"Where is Huangfu pregnant?" Chen Jing asked curiously, "Is he the vice-president with you? Or is he also promoted?"
"Promoted." Li Mobai smiled, "He is now the president."
"Oh, so..." Chen Jing nodded thoughtfully, "The original old president has retired?"
Hearing this, Qiao Youning, who was pouring soda into Chen Jing's cup, couldn't help but look up at Li Mobai, and seemed to know something.
"The old man's health is failing." Li Mobai said with a sigh, as if he couldn't help remembering the great former president, "The old man has survived so many years without dying of illness, and finally saw the dawn of hope, and the result... Oh, the world is full of troubles!"
"Then you and Mr. Huangfu are very lucky." Chen Jing said with a smile.
"It's not bad...the destiny has come..." Li Mobai analyzed whether Chen Jing was yin and yang himself, and picked up the water glass and took a sip of cold soda, "Let's not talk about these sad things, let's talk about something interesting!"
Chen Jing could tell that Li Mobai was deliberately changing the topic, but seeing that he didn't want to talk more, he stopped asking.
Did the old president really die of illness?
not necessarily.
You can probably tell the clues from some of the things Li Mobai has done before...
to be honest.
Chen Jingzhen suspected that the old president was covered to death on the hospital bed by Li Mobai with a pillow.
He can really do this kind of thing.
"Now the association and the foundation have entered the honeymoon period. It won't be long before...the two organizations will be merged into one." Li Mobai picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of roasted eggplant.
"Who will manage it?" Chen Jing was only curious about this.
"Joint management." Li Mobai put the eggplant into his mouth and chewed it slowly and calmly. "The details have not been discussed yet, but the problem is not big. The merger will only bring benefits to us and no harm."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Mobai pursed his lips and motioned for Chen Jing to see the barbecue on the table.
"Do you know where I bought it?"
"I don't know..." Chen Jing shook his head and looked at the takeout bags from the barbecue restaurant nearby. He couldn't help but feel a little curious, "Isn't there a ban in all urban areas..."
"The ban has been lifted long ago!" Li Mobai said with a smile.
According to Li Mobai, after the first round of exams, the order of the world was more stable than he imagined, and the panic in some areas did not spread widely...
Of course, it is also possible that modern people’s lives are too stressful.
Living is too tiring.
The pressure is too much, so I just give him anesthesia, and I won’t be afraid of the end of the world...
All in all, the order is quite stable.
Especially after discovering that the "giants" that appeared all over the world have disappeared...
"Do you still remember?" Li Mobai asked tentatively, trying to evoke Chen Jing's memories, "Before entering the first exam... after the red rain... those 'giant phantoms' appeared all over the world..."
"I know." Chen Jing nodded.
"After we came back, those things disappeared, which means... there is nothing else that can directly bring fear to humans except those damn aliens. As for the erasure of civilization if you fail the exam... that will take a long time?"
At this point, Li Mobai couldn't help laughing, as if he was also lamenting the strong will of mankind... or the gradually numb nerves.
"Anyway, social order has basically been restored now. There are forums as a way for humans to communicate with each other, plus the virtual network built by us, the alchemists of the Hanging City... the overall situation outside is not much different from before the end of the world, it's not bad!"
Li Mobai said with a smile, and suddenly his face changed, as if he remembered something important, and his eyes looking at Chen Jing became guilty.
"I want to tell you something..."
"Go ahead."
"Raphael..." Li Mobai could see that Chen Jing's eyes lit up when he heard these three words, but the more he did so, the more guilty he felt. "That guy is really missing..."
"Can't find him?" Chen Jing frowned.
"I really can't find him... I mobilized the power of the association to look for him before... Later I asked the foundation to help me find him... But now there is still no news..."
Chen Jing sighed and said nothing, but his eyes became more solemn.
"That guy seems to have been hiding from you from the beginning. After returning to the surface world, he hardly showed up. Even the people from the foundation contacted him through the forum. After the score ranking list came out, he didn't even reply to the forum messages..."
"Why is this guy so cowardly!" Chen Jing was a little amused and felt that Raphael was too cowardly. "I just want to see him!"
"Could it be that someone from the foundation is helping him?" Qiao Youning asked suddenly, "Someone is protecting him and hiding him."
"It's hard to say." Li Mobai also frowned, "But in public, no one has the courage to do that."
Chen Jing looked at the skewers on the plate and lost interest in eating supper for a while.
Compared to Xue Shiguan, who still has a face.
Raphael, who is shameless and hides directly, is the most difficult to deal with.
"It's okay."
Chen Jing took a few deep breaths slowly, gradually put away the unhappy expression on his face, and smiled reluctantly.
"Anyway, I'm about to return to the inner world. It's the same if I go back to Evernight City to find him."
"Kill him?" Li Mobai asked.
Chen Jing smiled and picked up a skewer of barbecue, put it in his mouth and bit it slowly.
"When we come back next time, if nothing unexpected happens, his name should not appear on the list."
Chapter 237 I from another time and space
"Coconut, did you say that dream was true?"
"Wang, which dream are you talking about?"
"That nightmare...the nightmare where everyone died."
In the Dongshan barrier.
Chen Jing lazily lay on the grass next to the pond, and Bai Aji lay by the water as usual.
Its left front paw pushed a handful of earthworms that had just been turned out of the ground into the water, and when those silly fish swam up to prepare to feast, it hurriedly put its paw into the water and stirred the water frantically.
Seeing those fishes being frightened and running around in panic, Bai Aji couldn't help but let out a strange laugh. Although the hoarse laughter was a bit creepy, the look of a successful prank was as innocent as a child.
"The nightmare you mentioned will not come true." Yegetos said firmly.
During this period of time living with Chen Jing, he has a general understanding of Chen Jing's character, and also knows that this "new king" has a fatal similarity with the old generation of Huang Wang...
Yes.
They both attach too much importance to feelings.
Because of this, Huang Wang had so many weaknesses at the beginning, which is also an important reason for his final fall in the old days.
Of course, Yegetos does not think this is a shortcoming.
The reason why so many creatures were willing to follow Huang Wang to live in the deep space forever is that Huang Wang has a little more "emotion" than other old kings... He regards all his family members as part of himself.
This is something that the other old kings cannot do.
"He" at that time and at that moment.
Just like him at this moment.
"Won't come true?" Chen Jing put his hand on his brow to block the dazzling sunlight coming towards him, "Then why did he give me this yellow seal..."
The seal of Huang Wang was given to me by the person in the mirror.
Chen Jing only told Bai Aji and Yegetos about this matter.
Although they are not of the same kind as Chen Jing, they are Chen Jing's family, which is a more solid relationship than blood relationship.
So Chen Jing was not worried that telling them about this matter would have any harm, and as an ancient race with extensive knowledge, they should be able to help him analyze... what is going on!
Facts have proved that.
Chen Jing thought highly of them.
Bai Aji, as the only mount of King Huang, does not understand this matter at all, and has never even heard of it.
It can be seen from the fact that it squatted by the pond and fished for fish like a fool... it is really "innocent".
As for Yegetos...
He gave Chen Jing a more reliable analysis.
But Chen Jing had already come up with this analysis.
After all, he had lived in the surface world for so many years and had seen many works of art with similar themes.
"The person in the mirror might be you in another time and space."
"Are you sure that another time and space really exists?"
"This is what King Huang said himself."
"..."
"He said that time and space are countless."
