Chapter 33: Resistor’s Diary
“What’s with this narration about chaos in time and space?”
Su Wen stared at the text in front of him, his lips twitching slightly.
The tone felt oddly sarcastic, almost mocking.
But he couldn’t control the weird narration of chaos in time and space, so he had no choice but to pick out the useful bits from its cryptic tone.
Besides, it was just a critique of his actions in the “future timeline.” He had to admit, hiding and not taking action could definitely be seen as cowardly.
【You carefully sifted through the remaining items and found a tattered notebook in the resistor’s bag.】
【Looking at the paper notebook, you felt a little disoriented. You had hoped to find some electronic devices, but there were none among the resistor’s belongings.】
【With a mix of curiosity and unease, you opened the resistor’s notebook.】
【From the past, the God of Wealth! The Great Change in the future timeline began to unfold before your eyes.】
【……】
【Year of Darkness 1: A sudden global blackout struck, rendering all electric-powered devices useless.】
【At the same time, all technological weapons lost their power, as if the world itself had shifted, stripping every creation of the technological age of its function.】
【At the crucial moment of the invasion, with all weapons failing, I learned two months later that the Imperial Capital Battlefield and the Magic City Battlefield had fallen.】
【Huaxia officially entered the dark age of survival and escape.】
【……】
【Year of Darkness 1, Month 8: While on the run, I witnessed a terrifying bug tide, capable of devouring everything in its path.】
【Luckily, I met a powerful companion. Under their protection, I began to wander from place to place.】
【One night, while talking with this companion, I learned their name—just a single character, Yun, with no surname. It struck me as odd, but I didn’t dare ask more.】
【In such a dark time of escape, having the protection of a powerful companion felt like a blessing from the heavens.】
【……】
【Year of Darkness 2, Month 3: Today, we were attacked by Golden Evil Bugs. I felt like a burden; because of me, Yun was slashed in the abdomen and bled heavily.】
【I’m so grateful to Yun. Without their protection, I would’ve died in the bug tide long ago.】
【But I’m filled with guilt. Why am I so useless? In an era like this, why am I not a fate bearer? If I were, even with just any profession, I could at least have the chance to grow stronger.】
【I hate it!】
【I hate myself! I hate the bugs! I hate the invaders!】
【Hate! Hate! Hate!】
【……】
【Year of Darkness 2, Month 7: Today, with Yun’s help and guidance, my energy improved significantly, and I finally broke through to become a Level Two warrior.】
【As a Level Two warrior, I can now handle myself in battle.】
【Thank you, Yun!】
【During this time, Yun and I wandered through various parts of the Imperial Capital, witnessing the devastation everywhere. Some fate bearers had set up refuges, but they were quickly destroyed by the invaders.】
【What has happened to this world?】
【……】
【In the Year of Darkness 3, Month 4, Yun fought and killed a two-winged flying insect today. Using the insect core from the flying bug, I completed my energy surge and became a third-tier warrior, even though my body underwent localized mutations.】
【But the situation is getting worse. Yun mentioned that the Mount Sea Battlefield is in danger; if it falls, all of human society will face a great destruction!】
【I don’t understand. When the invaders first appeared, Huaxia had a significant advantage, even crushing them in several battles and securing victories. But how did things suddenly escalate to this point?】
【I asked Yun, but she said she didn’t know the exact reason. She only knew that humanity lost a war, and after that, the battlefields in the Imperial Capital and Magic City collapsed, allowing a massive number of invaders to flood into Huaxia.】
【……】
【In the Year of Darkness 4, Month 2, Yun died, killed by a malevolent spirit while protecting me, this useless person.】
【Why would Yun protect me, just an ordinary person studying martial arts?】
【She could have escaped! She didn’t have to die; she only needed me, this useless person, to die!】
【How infuriating!】
【This crumbling world!!!】
【How can it return to normal!?】
【……】
【In the Year of Darkness 5, Month 7, I set out with a group of determined individuals, returning to the Imperial Capital to explore and show the people back home how the invaders have trampled the Imperial Capital.】
【But we all know we are just cannon fodder, a suicide squad.】
【One hundred and twenty-seven teams, one hundred and twenty-seven suicide squads; if just one person returns from the Imperial Capital with information, then all our sacrifices will be worth it.】
【Creator of martial arts! What kind of person are you!!!】
【……】
【As you flip through the pages, you realize the later notes are missing, and the only useful information you can see is this.】
【You even notice that the middle section has large gaps and damage, making you suspect that many pieces of information are missing due to the extensive time jumps.】
【With mixed feelings, oh God of Wealth! When you find major historical changes in a Resistor’s broken notebook and realize that the historical process was forcibly interrupted, plunging into the Year of Darkness, what do you feel?】
Meanwhile, in the God of Wealth’s office, Su Wen read the information in the Resistor’s diary, his expression constantly shifting.
Year of Darkness!
The Age of Escape!
Electronic energy failures!
Weapons failing!
The Imperial Capital and Magic City battlefields fallen!
The Mount Sea Battlefield in peril!
Invaders rampaging and slaughtering in the Imperial Capital… What on earth happened?
Yun in the diary mentioned that a battlefield failed, leading to these disasters.
Which battlefield failed?
How did it fail?
Why did it fail?
What caused it?
These points are only briefly mentioned in the diary. Although he has a rough understanding of the situation, how is it different from not knowing at all?
How could history change so drastically?
Most importantly, at the end of the damaged diary, why did this Resistor mention the creator of martial arts?
Is it mere admiration towards the creator after practicing martial arts, expressed as a casual phrase, or is it truly… something he himself caused?
How did he cause it?
Martial arts had not developed much; the limit of third-tier already explains everything.
Compared to fate bearers, martial arts is still too weak.
In such weakness, if he died early, how could he have had such an impact on this world?
Causing the world to teeter on the brink of collapse, leading Huaxia to total defeat…
“What a sin!”
Su Wen turned his gaze to the window and couldn’t help but sigh.
