So, is this also a kind of "gravity"?
If I already have that qualification, then my coming to the dream world itself is no less than a huge rock hitting the water. The ripples that spread out are the history that has been changed because of it... Is it because of me? Is it because of me that a person who shouldn't be here at this time appeared?
In just a moment, Hitzfeld thought a lot. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Li Lan looking at her with a worried look.
"Maybe this question is very presumptuous..." Li Lan said, "but I still want to know, are you... Her Majesty Julia Huoyang?"
"No." Hitzfeld had no intention of lying to her, "Julia will die in the future. I am just a Namiyan who was caught up in Lana's dream. I inherited some of her things when she was dying."
"So." Li Lan looked a little disappointed, but he soon cheered up and looked at her with some hope, "Then can you save us?"
"We...Misros...and Lana..."
"I know this may be an excessive request, but since you can... since you can maintain your sanity and wake me up, and rescue me from the control of Deep Space Mother and Lana, then I think some things are not impossible for you?"
"I won't promise anything I'm not absolutely sure of." Hitzfeld said calmly, "But no matter what we can do, Mr. Yongdol, I need your help."
"I will do everything in my power to help you!"
"Very good, then from now on tell me everything you know - from your birth until you met your adoptive father, and then your life in the Holy Temple of the Bright Spirit, until your sacrifice. I also want to know the history after your death."
"no problem!"
Li Lan could undoubtedly see that she was extraordinary - were you kidding? The thing that had blinded his mind before was undoubtedly the horrific remnant of the Mother of Deep Space. That kind of thing... That kind of thing should be the most potent poison for any living being, but what did she do to it?
She really didn't do anything earth-shattering, she just talked, wrote, looked, touched - and then the thing just screamed and fell apart.
What level of ability is this?
I don’t know, I’m not sure... This has completely exceeded Li Lan’s understanding of the concept of “ability”.
A thing that should be the most poisonous thing in the world, but it turns around and behaves towards another thing as if the other party is the most poisonous... Li Lan doesn't care whether Hitzfeld will agree to his request, because he knows very well that he has no other choice.
He had no trump card, no bargaining chips. Not only him, but the entire Mithros... all the imprisoned spirits of Mithros had no bargaining chips.
What can they give?
With their homes shattered and wandering in deep space, they had nothing left. They had no other options except hoping that the other party would have mercy on them.
So he cooperated very well and quickly told everyone he knew.
"I have been an orphan since I was young... Both Mimo and I are orphans. I should have married her, but... I guess it was Xivi who interfered with my mind. She went so far as to sneak into the Mingling Holy Temple as a Misros person. I guess she might be... maybe she coveted something of mine."
"Things? What do you have that a Gray Mist Evil God would covet?"
"I'm also very curious, but I can probably guess one thing now - if there is one special thing about me, it must be my second heart. This heart was transplanted during a huge disaster in our childhood. Mi Mo and I lived on a deep space satellite at the time. I went out that day and suddenly felt a huge shadow falling from the sky. Before I could see clearly what it was, I was blown away by the impact. I fell and fainted... When I woke up, all I saw was ruins all over the ground and a large sea of blood seeping out of the ruins."
"Sea of blood?"
"Yes - I must describe it this way... The amount of bleeding was too huge... There were raised rubble ruins above, and blood fountains kept gushing out from the cracks below... Do you understand what I mean? It's not the case that 'there are many people buried below that caused the blood to gush out' - no matter how many people there are, it won't cause such a spectacle. I even suspect that there is some kind of giant monster that I have never seen buried under the ruins, and the blood comes from its corpse."
"Why didn't you tell me these things before?"
"It's only been a short while since I regained consciousness, and I just remembered some things."
"Go on, tell me how this disaster relates to your heart transplant."
"Because I met my father during that disaster." Li Lan said, "Gare Yongdor, he appeared in that place and asked me what I saw... I answered truthfully. He found out that I was an orphan and asked if I was willing to be adopted by him. I was fuzzy at the time and probably nodded... Then they told me that I was injured and needed a minor operation to repair the wound. After I recovered, I clearly felt that there was an extra heart in my body. I guess that was the transplant they gave me."
"But you said before that it was the heart your adoptive father left with you."
"Did I say that?" Li Lan had a confused look on his face.
"I'm sure." Hitzfeld narrowed his eyes slightly.
"That should be it... Yes... I remember now... That's it..." Li Lan's eyes widened suddenly, "Everyone - since I met my father, those people... my father's 'friends', and my father himself, have told me this."
"They said I should have died, but it was Gare who transplanted his heart to me. They said I inherited the bravery of a warrior. I cannot let my father down!"
"But you suppose that's not the truth?"
"Of course not!" Li Lan stared, "How can he live without a heart? This is a lie...even...faked death..."
"Yes... that disaster must be related to my father... something was chasing him... he used this excuse to fake his death... he 'disappeared' from that moment on... leaving only me, 'Lilan-Yondor', and the heart in my body..."
"You wait."
Hitzfeld stopped him for a moment. Li Lan looked at her curiously, but found that she just looked up at the glass and shouted to the air: "Excuse me - can you adjust the time to where he said."
What is she talking about?
Li Lan couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Adjust time?
How could one ignore the fact that she was talking to the air?
But, a miracle happened.
The phrase "the passage of time" is not enough to describe their subsequent experience. Li Lan only felt that the scene in front of him was spinning rapidly. After he stood up again after feeling dizzy, he was surprised to find that he had returned to the disaster scene in his childhood memory!
The pale earth was the defining feature of the satellite area. At this time, the ground was full of potholes and cracks, and fainted bodies lay limp on the ground. Not far away was a large area of heavy rubble.
He saw the sea of blood again.
What gushed out from the cracks in the rubble was something as crazy as a "blood fountain". They gathered in the depression and piled up, red and weird, reflecting his dull face.
"The attack has become so blatant..."
Suddenly, there was a sound of conversation coming from the front.
Li Lan looked up and vaguely saw two figures walking towards him from a distance.
"What should I do? This is obviously aimed at you. What on earth did you get on Satellite 11 that could tempt these giant monsters to chase you across deep space?"
"If I have to say, it's probably that they broke into an experimental site and took away the so-called experimental subjects."
"Experimental subject? Huh?"
"Don't worry about the details... Do me a favor, Firmi. I need to disappear for a while. Please help me get a death certificate."
"If you don't tell me what happened, I won't care about you, a deformed Yalai!"
"Has the ground people's words finally reached a place like this? How sad! I thought we were good friends."
"Well—there's nothing I can do about you!"
"Come here Firmy! There's a child here?"
"child?"
"Poor little guy, why did he come to a place like this to play alone? Wake up... Hey, wake up!"
"Well……"
"His heart was pierced by debris. You will only hasten his death by doing this."
"Heart?"
"What do you want to do?"
"Tell me Firmi, can he be saved?"
"There's no way he can survive this level of injury. He's going to die. I advise you to give up."
"Then even the worst consequence would be nothing more than the defilement of the body... Come on, Firmi, let's carry him to the tent."
"What do you want? What do you want?"
"To verify a possibility... this may be our only hope of survival."
What on earth is this——
Li Lan stared blankly at the scene in front of him, watching two men carrying a small "corpse" back to the tent. The silhouette of the operation in progress could be seen through the cloth.
"Gare, what are you doing? Are you crazy!!! Wait - why do you have two hearts?"
"You're wondering why those big guys are chasing me, this is why."
"Is this what you found on Satellite 11?"
"Yes, I don't know who it belongs to, but I'm sure it's not one of ours, and I'm sure - it's trying to evolve like us."
"Doesn't that mean - this is an invasion? Are there really intelligent extraterrestrial life forms in deep space?"
"I don't want to speculate, but this is most likely the result."
"Are those deep space chapters really contaminated? I was wondering why Outpost 11 was suddenly blocked. Indeed, this makes sense..."
"Wait, Gare? Why did you keep this secret to yourself? We should report it to the chief priest immediately, Lana - we need to let Lana know that something is invading!"
"Gare...? Why aren't you talking?"
"…We can't tell Lana the news."
"???Why?"
"Because Satellite 11 can be considered a separate body of Lana. With the contamination of Satellite 11, it's hard not to wonder if Lana has also been affected."
"You are really crazy!!! Why would you think so???"
"I have to think so."
"Then we can't win - if the other party has bad intentions, and even Lana... who can be saved? Who can we count on?"
"Count on this child."
"Depend on him? He's going to die!!!"
"He will live, in the name of Lilan-Yondor. And Garai-Yondor will die. I plan to transplant this heart into him, and then go there again."
"Is this the purpose of your fake death?"
"Yes, I need you to cancel the record I left in Lana's veins, otherwise I can't leave...without permission."
"Are you sure... Satellite 11 has already... I heard that it's very dangerous there. I don't understand why you faked your death in order to go there and die again..."
"Some things must be done... Oh, by the way, among the priest family, I tend to trust 'Huoyang' because they are the only ones who have nothing to do with Lana. People from 'White Snake' and 'Flower Mist' cannot be trusted, remember that."
The conversation began to become intermittent, mixed with muffled groans - the heart had been taken out of the man's chest, and was wriggling in the air with a string of blood.
"Don't tell him what I did..."
"Of course, I'm not that stupid."
"It would be best if he could grow up safely. For us, 'growth' itself is 'power'. In the process, he will assimilate this thing... But I can't do that. My 'growth' stopped last year..."
"I don't understand, is this the hope you are willing to sacrifice to preserve?"
"Because there is still one heart like this."
"???"
"There is another one...in another cavity..."
"I know it will take shape..."
“It will come to me…”
"Li Lan will understand what he should do..."
"..."
"..."
Staring at the memory scene in front of them, Hitzfeld and Li Lan had no time to speak.
Li Lan was so shocked!
The more he watched these things, the clearer his memories became. In the end, he was experiencing everything from the perspective of a child on the operating table!
So this is why Xiwei chose me...
For many years, she has been careful not to destroy Mithros, just to find out her lost organs... She followed her father's clues and found me, and transformed herself into a girl to induce my corruption.
She did succeed.
Li Lan remembered everything - at the same time, the time in the universe accelerated again, until he grew up and fell in love with Xiwei. He watched his eyes being completely blinded, and vowed to her, "He would go back to her kingdom with her, even if he had to betray the whole world for this."
But something went wrong at the last minute.
That heart.
The heart actively triggered a counterattack... When she came closer, he reached out his hand as if possessed by a ghost, and thrust it into her chest, using force - crushing the heart that brought him love!
This is the record left by the hero Lilan in the history of civilization of Misros.
No one recorded it, and the truth had long been buried by time. Li Lan felt sad and ironic - the achievements he was proud of were ultimately manipulated by his adoptive father. Could he be considered a hero?
