Chapter 1474 Nightmare of the Future
“Qing Yu?” Lin Qiye was stunned, “What’s wrong with him?”
“The King Mask from the future traveled back in time to the present, you should be aware of this.”
Lin Qiye nodded, “Yes… but what does that have to do with him?”
“Before arriving at this point in time, he also went further back into the past, found the Primordial Heavenly Lord, and delivered a warning… telling us to be wary of someone in the [Nightfall] squad. In the future, this person will become the nightmare of this world.
That person is An Qingyu.”
Hearing this answer, Lin Qiye’s brow furrowed deeper.
In his mind, he suddenly recalled the scene from years ago in the misty sea, when the elderly King Mask appeared in a small boat, blocking the [Nightfall] squad… it was then that the [Nightfall] squad was scattered by him, drifting into Japan’s “human circle.”
Could it be that his target at that time was An Qingyu?
“Impossible.” Lin Qiye shook his head, “He’s my deputy, I know him. How could he possibly become that kind of person?”
“I didn’t believe it either initially, but King Mask has no reason to lie to us… moreover, who can be certain about the future?”
“Just because of this vague prophecy, the Heavenly Lord has confined us to this island?”
“The process is far more complex than you imagine.” Left Qing shook his head, “Is the Heavenly Lord the type to act on mere rumors? For a long period, he has been investigating An Qingyu… I don’t know what the Heavenly Lord discovered, but he must have found some decisive factor to take these actions.”
Lin Qiye frowned deeply, “I’ve known An Qingyu for several years. If there was something wrong with him, he couldn’t hide it from me.”
“Are you sure about that?” Left Qing looked into Lin Qiye’s eyes, “Then let me ask you, what is his Forbidden Domain?”
“Of course it’s [The Only Correct Answer]…”
Lin Qiye stopped halfway through his sentence.
His mind suddenly recalled a conversation with An Qingyu in that dark sewer:
…So, have you tried to understand what your Forbidden Domain is?
Yes, but… it doesn’t seem to exist in the current Forbidden Domain sequence. The closest is Sequence 315 [Eye of True Sight], but that’s just similar, the function is completely different.
You mean this is a brand new Forbidden Domain that has never appeared before?
It should be… my Forbidden Domain isn’t in the sequence, and no one has possessed it before. I named it… [The Only Correct Answer]!
“…”
[The Only Correct Answer] was a name An Qingyu gave to this ability himself. What exactly this ability to analyze and mimic everything was, not only Lin Qiye didn’t know, even An Qingyu himself wasn’t clear.
“Lin Qiye, your talent is already absolutely top-tier, but think about An Qingyu,” Left Qing looked into his eyes and said calmly, “He awakened his Forbidden Domain after you joined the Night Watchers and went on the Nanda Snake Demon mission… but his level now is even higher than yours.
He can limitlessly increase his power just by dissecting ‘mysteries.’ Do you really think his existence makes sense?”
Lin Qiye opened his mouth, but still said, “This only proves his talent is higher than mine? His Forbidden Domain is unprecedented? Surely there must be other Forbidden Domains not recorded in history?”
“I understand what you’re saying, but in some matters, we must be cautious.”
Left Qing sighed, “Anyway, since the Heavenly Lord left you a chance to leave that island, it shows he still has expectations for An Qingyu. I’m telling you this because I hope you’ll keep an eye on him in the future. You’re the captain of [Nightfall], you need to manage your own people.”
After a long silence, Lin Qiye nodded:
“I understand.”
…
Great Xia.
Chennan Pass.
Two days had passed since the disappearance of Great Xia’s gods.
“Qingyu… you don’t think Seven Nights really won’t come back, do you?” Jiang Er’s voice came through the speaker.
On the busy outer wall, An Qingyu sat by the watchtower, gazing at the mist-shrouded border in the distance, silent.
After Shao Pingge arrived, he immediately mobilized a large number of construction teams to Chennan Pass to rebuild the devastated outer wall. Currently, numerous construction equipment was operating by the wall, making thunderous noises. Despite this, a large group of figures remained stationed on the wall, looking toward the distant border, as if waiting for something.
In the two days since the disappearance of Great Xia’s gods and the human powerhouses, everyone had been worried. Even though Chennan Pass had emerged victorious from two consecutive rounds of divine battles, there was no celebratory atmosphere in the fortress; instead, it was extremely depressing.
An Qingyu didn’t answer. He silently took a deep breath, stood up, and walked down the wall.
“Where are you going?” Cao Yuan immediately asked when he saw An Qingyu leaving.
“Rather than just waiting here, it’s better to find a way to locate Seven Nights and the others,” An Qingyu pushed up his glasses and said as he walked, “Whether it’s time or space, if there’s been a change, there must be traces left… The Primordial Heavenly Lord is searching for them everywhere, perhaps I can contribute some effort too.”
“You have a solution?” Cao Yuan’s eyes lit up.
“…No.”
“…”
“But solutions are created by people, aren’t they?” An Qingyu glanced at the distant border, “Not having a solution now doesn’t mean we won’t have one later… I need to find a place in this fortress to build a temporary laboratory. I’ll start by investigating the soil from the area where they disappeared, maybe I’ll discover something.
As long as they don’t return, I’ll stay here and research. Without Seven Nights, [Nightfall] can’t carry out other missions anyway.”
Hearing the determination in An Qingyu’s voice, Cao Yuan nodded, “Alright, let me know if you need any help.”
In a fight, Cao Yuan could certainly be helpful, but for investigation and research, he was truly powerless.
An Qingyu seemed to think of something, suddenly stopped, and turned to look at him,
“Actually, I might really need your help with something…”
“Tell me.”
“I left something at my temporary residence in Beijing, I need you to bring it here for me.”
“What is it?”
An Qingyu briefly described it, and Cao Yuan’s brow slightly furrowed, “Are you sure… that thing can help you?”
“Perhaps, we can’t overlook any possibility right now.”
“…Alright, I’ll go find Commander Shao. Now that the war has subsided, it shouldn’t be difficult to request a brief leave.” Cao Yuan nodded and headed directly to the command center.
