Chapter 739 You Failed to Achieve Your Goal
"What are you relying on? The Nightmare Guardian Cloak? A part of the core authority of the first district. You are counting on the skill [Fantasy] to continue stealing accounts, stealing the old account of 'Lightning King', and then you think you have the confidence to challenge me?"
Next to them, in the villa, countless men and women looked at the two men who looked exactly the same talking to each other in bewilderment, not understanding what they were talking about.
However, because of Qin Shang's violent act of punching Yan Qingyi into the wall so that Yan Qingyi couldn't get out, no one interrupted at this moment, for fear of becoming the target of public criticism and attracting the attention of this guy who was more terrifying than boxing champion Tanson.
"puff……"
Qin Shang also laughed.
This sarcastic smile fully demonstrated the meaning of provocation, which made the god Qin Shang who was not far away quite unhappy.
I am a player in the realm of rules. I have been planning for so long just to make you voluntarily hand over the core authority to me. Are you laughing at your mother?
God Qin Shang frowned slightly.
"If you think you can beat me, then I can only say that you think too much. You are using the skills of the account 'Lightning King'. The 7th, 8th, and 9th skills of that account are all my original creations. I have a say in how much power they can exert, how to use them, and when to use them before you do. You can't beat me with those three skills I created..."
"I know, I know, of course I know."
Qin Shang nodded, but his expression showed a bit more impatience.
"You don't need to remind me. I know that 'Thunder King' is an account that you have ruined, or an old account. The skills you are using now are definitely not the same as the rules of this character card. And if I were you, since I have [Fake Death] and replayed so many times, I can also predict that the enemies I will have to deal with in the future will not only be Jiang Qiqi, but also me... you who came from the timeline 17 years later!"
"After all, even the official organization of the God Road players in the "Taoyuan" round knows that the Original Sin character cards cannot be recycled."
"By the same token, you must know this too!"
"Then you must have known it a long time ago. If there is still a version of you alive in the timeline 17 years later, then this you will be using the character card from before..."
"If I were you, after a certain rewind, I would definitely find out that my enemy is actually myself in the future timeline. Then, when I go back to the next long timeline [rewind] and return to the second large area of the God Road to start training again, I would change my seventh skill to a rule with a [lock] effect!"
"As long as I lock onto this guy once, no matter how many times I [Fake My Death] in the "Taoyuan" round, you can travel through countless dungeons and parallel universes to enter a dungeon in the world where this guy is, lie dormant, observe this guy, and even avoid losing this guy's whereabouts one day in the future."
"So actually, you have always known where the Taoyuan round is, but Jiang Qiqi just thought you didn't know I was in this round."
"As for why you didn't come to see me before, I have two guesses. The first guess is that you don't have the ability to enter the real world on the timeline 17 years later."
"You can only move around in the real world 17 years ago or in the dungeon of the Divine Road. Another guess is that you want me to become stronger and upgrade to a certain level where I can actively open the inventory, and then snatch the core authority from me."
"As for why you didn't immediately come to find me in the world where I just became a Divine Path player and in the dungeons I experienced, it's possible that Jiang Qiqi stopped you, but I have two other useless guesses. Either it was the Divine Path that stopped you. After all, I'm only a Lawful Realm player, and all the dungeons I experienced were Lawful Realm dungeons."
"As we all know, high-level players cannot enter low-level dungeons."
"I suddenly realized something once before. No matter if you are a "God Slayer", "Developer", "Experiencer" or "Observer", you are essentially a God Path player."
"You should still be subject to some of the rules of the Divine Path for players, even for an administrator like you."
"Unless this instance is currently in a "contaminated state", enter it using the contamination source and shadow casting."
After saying this, Qin Shang paused for a moment, his mind working rapidly.
"But I have another guess, which is that you can't use this character card now..."
"In each round, there will only be one 'licking cockroach's feet'. Although you trained your account to the Rule Realm in Taoyuan, and even became the legendary god in the Divine Road, with administrator privileges and all the core authority of the second largest area, but because of the Divine Road player event in 17, you entered another 'round' again in that event. From that day on, you are no longer the owner of this card."
"In this inventory, there is a character card with core authority... and the current owner is me!"
"That's why you didn't enter the dungeon I went through and snatch it as soon as I became a Divine Path player. Maybe it's also because you couldn't come, but I think it's both reasons. You can't use the Original Sin character card in my hand..."
After these words were spoken, the god Qin Shang, who had a neat short hair, changed his expression. His sword-like eyebrows, which were missing a piece, slightly raised. He raised his hand and touched his eyebrows, as if he felt that the situation was a bit tricky.
Then he rubbed his eyebrows and muttered.
"interesting……"
Seeing that the other party was still unwilling to say more, Qin Shang was happy to be free and continued.
"Then, I have a new guess now. Do you want to hear it?"
"I was thinking that the core authority of the second largest area, the computer, was originally divided into several parts, and each "developer" should be able to get a part of it."
"So you used the 17 Shenlu player event to attract all the powerful Shenlu players from around the world to hunt you down, just to effortlessly gather together other Shenlu players with "developer" privileges and get the core authority in their hands?"
"Only during the major events of 17 can you meet so many other core authority holders at once. So even if you return to the past timeline, you can only revisit your past path step by step. Of course, according to the rules of the Divine Path, you will never follow the same path as in "Taoyuan" in other rounds, because the Divine Path has a mechanism that will trigger a rule even if a player with the profession of a fraudster replays for a long time..."
"Players cannot enter the same instance repeatedly."
"Thank you for your hard work. You will have to continue to open up other dungeons in other rounds."
The smile on Qin Shang's lips gradually deepened, revealing a look of pity and mockery.
Looking across at myself from another timeline, my facial expressions gradually got out of control.
The smile on his face gradually deepened.
"Did I guess right? You only managed to collect the core authority 'computer' in 17 and obtained the complete core authority in the 'Taoyuan' round."
"And in other rounds, you discovered that there are no other core authorities. You realized that although the Divine Path runs through many parallel universes, the core authority is unique, and every part is unique..."
The moment Qin Shang blurted out this guess, he felt as if he had suddenly been enlightened, and countless new thoughts surged in his mind again.
"Oh, I get it!"
“No wonder Shenlu has updated its version.”
"No wonder you [faked your death] so many times during the long timeline replay... You are now trapped in the time 17 years ago, not in the past. You have been to the time 17 years later. In the countless replays before the God Road player event in the "Taoyuan" cycle, you have lived to the time 17 years later in other worlds."
At this moment, Qin Shang seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised his voice.
In the dim lighting, the face flickered between shadows, appearing even more gloomy.
"In each round, different people get different parts of the core authority. The computer's monitor, chassis, keyboard, and mouse are all core authorities of a certain part, and these core authorities are unique and one-of-a-kind."
"If someone in this world obtains it, the other world will no longer have the corresponding core authority."
"You have been faking your death in order to make these people appear in the same "round". If the 'mouse' in World A is obtained by someone one day in 13, then unless you enter the round that corresponds to him, you will never see this core authority in your life."
"So, before the other party gets this core authority, you train another powerful successor in a certain timeline to compete for the 'Mouse' before the player who was supposed to get the 'Mouse' in 13 completes [Origin of the Mother Goddess], just to prevent the player in that "round" from getting the Mouse in the original timeline. This can influence the future direction to a certain extent. If you do enough, you will have the opportunity to make these holders of different parts of the core authority, who were originally supposed to be scattered in different parallel universes, gather in the same round, just like Dean Avicii in [No. 1 Monastic Grudge]..."
Hearing this, the god Qin Shang who was not far away put away his complicated expression, and instead showed a rare thoughtful look.
"But you also know that different parts of the core authority are unique even in all parallel universes. According to your example, suppose Jiang Qiqi in a certain round A obtained a part of the core authority in 14."
"But even though I know about this, I'm in another round, and I can't change it. Even if I'm in 05 in another "round", in the "round" I'm in, in my world here, Jiang Qiqi can't get the core authority in 14, because she in another round has already obtained the unique part of the core authority in 14."
"Even if I want to use the big events of 17 to attract players who have obtained a part of the core authority to fall into my trap, they are in another world. I don't have the conditions to take away their core authority..."
"Jiang Qiqi in my world still hasn't obtained the corresponding core authority in 14 years!"
Hearing this, Qin Shang couldn't help but sneer;
"Yes, that's why you keep modifying the time!"
"In 14, Jiang Qiqi from World A obtained the core authority. You, who knew about this, have now [rewinded] to World B. You are now in World A, but you know that Jiang Qiqi from World A will obtain that part of the core authority in 14. So you understand that even if you do your best to train Jiang Qiqi from World B, it will be useless. You cannot change the fact that in 14, Jiang Qiqi from World A obtained part of the core authority."
"So you accelerated the progress of time...you changed the time when Jiang Qiqi obtained the core authority."
"The core event is part of 'World A's Jiang Qiqi will get the core authority in 14'. You can't change this, especially since you two are not in the same round."
"However, you can make Jiang Qiqi in World B obtain part of the core authority before 14 years and let her die before 14 years. This will not affect the fact that Jiang Qiqi in World A is destined to obtain the core authority in 14 years. It will also satisfy your purpose and make the part of the core authority you want appear in your world."
