Chapter 388 Three meetings between Laila and King Xin (Happy New Year’s Eve!)
"Prophecy of world destruction?"
King Xin silently chewed on what Laila said, and the first emotion that emerged in his heart was naturally absurd.
Anyone suddenly hears a stranger saying to themselves that the end of the world is coming.
I'm afraid this will be the reaction.
only.
King Xin was King Xin after all, and he didn’t just walk away because of Laila’s ridiculous remarks.
Coupled with the legendary realm and strength displayed by Laila.
King Xin thought for a while and asked patiently.
"Sir, are you serious?"
"Of course."
Laila's tone was calm as she narrated.
"In the not-too-distant future, there will be a great flood sweeping the entire world from [the Far North]."
"Submerge most of the world's land."
"More than 90% of humanity will die in this disaster, and countless kingdoms will be completely destroyed."
At this point, Laila looked at him with a slightly sympathetic look.
"And the first one to bear the brunt is your [Great Yan Kingdom]."
"What did you say?"
King Xin frowned slightly, feeling that Laila's words were getting more and more absurd.
"What flood swept the world?"
"And the first one to arrive in [the Far North]?"
If it were those generals with bad tempers under him, after hearing these alarmist words, they would be so angry that they would beat this man out directly.
But King Xin's temperament is relatively mild and friendly.
After thinking for a moment, he asked first.
"Your Excellency, are you a believer of the Netherworld Sect or other secret sects?"
Obviously, King Xin regarded Laila as a follower of some evil god.
I'm spreading some kind of doctrine to him!
after all.
In King Xin's impression, the only ones who would be keen on spreading doomsday prophecies were the followers of these evil gods.
Use the end of the world to trick others into joining the cult.
This is also a very common method.
Zaixin Wang wants to come.
Next, Laila would explain to him the way to save the world and proclaim her Lord and Savior.
But who knows, Laila shook her head at this time.
"I am not a believer in some evil god."
"It would be better to say that the person who caused this world-destroying disaster was an alien god from outside the [Seven Seas World]."
"The mere mention of His name may draw His attention."
"So I can only tell you... He is a great commander!"
"Da Siming?"
Upon hearing this title, King Xin's expression changed slightly.
If Laila casually announced the name of an outside god, King Xin would be suspicious.
However, he had actually seen the suffix "Si Ming" in an ancient book.
Therefore, we know that they are some particularly powerful beings among the outer gods.
He holds some incredible authority.
But even so.
The doomsday prophecies in Laila's mouth are still too bizarre and alarmist.
King Xin obviously couldn't believe its existence so easily.
So, he asked again.
"So, where did you learn about this prophecy?"
A look of nostalgia appeared on Laila's face under the hood, and then she said.
"This is what a person from the future told me."
"Coupled with my verification, the source of this major flood was finally confirmed."
"A person from the future?"
King Xin's expression was extremely strange.
He seemed to be surprised more often today than he had been in the past year.
But this is really because what Laila said is too fantastic.
Whether it's a world-ending disaster or some kind of future visitor, they all seem to exist only in fantasy.
Even if King Xin is already a legendary powerhouse, it is difficult to imagine that someone can travel through time and space and go back to the past.
And yet, Laila seems to still believe in this matter?
This sounds a bit too ridiculous.
King Xin forced himself to suppress his strange emotions and asked the last question.
"Even if you knew this prophecy, why did you tell me about it?"
Laila said directly.
"The reason is simple."
"Because... the man from the future once mentioned your deeds."
"And in my opinion, if anyone in the world today can prevent this disaster from coming."
"That person can only be you."
King Xin was stunned again.
He didn't expect that this strange legend would give him such a high evaluation.
after all.
It is different from the situation in later generations where King Xin’s deeds were widely spread across the Seven Seas.
During this time period, the [Great Yan Kingdom] in the [Far North] had just been established.
Moreover, the people on this land have always been regarded as exiled sinners by the mainstream kingdoms in the southern continent.
Many kingdoms showed disgust and contempt towards [Great Yan Kingdom].
So much so that when [Dayan Kingdom] was established, almost no other kingdoms came to attend the ceremony.
The founding ceremony seemed very shabby.
His title as the Salary King is almost only known to the citizens of his own country.
Looking at the entire [Seven Seas World], he is just an unknown king.
But at this time.
The other party claimed that only he could save the world.
The young King Xin, while in a strange mood, could not help but feel a bit complacent.
After all.
The salary king who became famous in the seven seas in later generations is still just a young man.
Lila continued.
"I know, you won't believe what I say now."
"But it doesn't matter, time will tell."
"I just hope that you can remember what I said today and confirm for yourself whether this prophecy is true or false."
"By then, you should understand what you should do?"
After saying that, Laila waved her hand to King Xin.
"That's all I have to say, you can continue to hunt down the murderer who killed your [Great Yan Kingdom] people."
Seeing that Laila had no intention of continuing the conversation, King Xin did not stay any longer, but left with a very complicated mood.
And aside.
Xia En, who witnessed the entire conversation between Laila and King Xin, fell into an unspeakable shock.
From a long time ago.
There is a doubt in Xia En's mind, and that is——
Whose mouth did the earliest prophecy about the world-destroying flood come from?
After all
[Hui Siming] is an outer god who transcends the seven seas.
Strictly speaking.
It is difficult for fortune tellers and prophets in this world to predict His actions.
Not to mention.
Accurately confirm the coming of a great flood and its source.
But what if...
Wasn't that a prophecy from the beginning?
The so-called prophecy is nothing more than Laila telling King Xin and other mystics of this era about what happened in the future.
Her purpose is simple——
I just want to use the most amazing geniuses of every era, gather their strength, and find a way to prevent the world-destroying flood from coming.
This way.
Only then will the prophecies about the great flood spread throughout the world.
This is the truth behind the so-called prophecy of world destruction!
On the other hand.
Laila's understanding of the great flood in later generations came from the people she said came from the future.
That is Xia En.
From a certain perspective.
Is Xia En the initiator of the prophecy of destruction?
Just the thought of that.
A very strange and wonderful feeling arose in Xia En's heart.
History seems to have formed a closed loop at this moment. The boundaries between past and future, cause and effect, seem to have become blurred.
Perhaps he has truly changed the past without knowing it?
And just as Xia En was feeling emotional.
But Laila looked up at the gray-white sky and took off the veil on her face, revealing her beautiful face.
But at this time, there was a touch of sadness and sadness on her face.
Laila whispered to herself.
"Xia En, I miss you so much..."
The conversation with King Xin just now reminded her of missing Xia En.
Only then.
Only then did Laila take off the indifferent, cold and hard shell.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Just like the girl she once was, she showed some weakness again.
Xia En's heart couldn't help but twitch.
if you can.
Of course he wanted to tell Laila out loud that he was here and give her a warm hug
But now, Xia En can only be in this closed perspective, watching Laila show such a sad expression.
Nothing can be done.
At this moment.
They seemed so close.
In fact, it is extremely remote.
What lies between them is a ruthless and silent time.
The power of time seems to be the most insipid and silent.
But it flows through everyone equally.
You won’t stop for a moment because of any person or thing.
Not to mention being open-minded to anyone.
When it accumulates, it becomes too heavy to be added to.
It's like an insurmountable mountain.
Just looking up makes one feel despair.
And right now.
But Laila glanced at the [Eternal Coffin] next to her in surprise.
Don't know why.
She actually vaguely felt some kind and familiar atmosphere from this coffin
It seemed like the person she missed and wanted to see.
Are you looking at yourself through this [Eternal Coffin]?
And at the same time.
Xia En also noticed Laila's gaze and was suddenly shocked.
In this extremely brief moment.
They seemed to have crossed the barrier of time and looked at each other through this [Eternal Coffin].
"This is?"
Xia En suddenly felt incredible.
To know.
What he sees now may not be real history.
Perhaps, it was just the scene where Great Yan reappeared.
in this case.
How could Laila see herself through the [Eternal Coffin]?
And reacted?
Then I thought about it.
Shane thought of a possibility.
According to Laila, the [Eternal Coffin] has certain characteristics that can transcend time.
Because of this, it can serve as a unique [anchor].
Perhaps the reason behind this is——
[Eternal Coffin] may exist in the past, future and present at the same time!
That is to say.
Not only is he in the future, he can also see the scenes around the [Eternal Coffin] in the past.
Lila, who is in the past, can also see Shane in the future through it?
Of course, this is just Xia En's conjecture and has not yet been verified.
But obviously.
This kind of stare across time cannot last for a long time.
Soon, Laila withdrew her gaze and smiled to herself.
"It seems that I miss you so much."
"I almost thought you were looking at me in this coffin..."
Shane wanted to say something.
It's a pity that under the restrictions of the [Eternal Coffin], no sound can be made.
It didn't take long.
Laila quickly calmed down her emotions, put on the black hood again, and patted the body of the [Eternal Coffin].
"Let's go."
"Our journey has just begun."
While Laila said these words.
The world in Xia En's eyes was once again indescribably distorted.
The time that had been stagnant before seemed to start flowing again.
And sent him to the next [coordinates] location.
……
……
After a change of light and shadow.
Shane opened his eyes again.
What comes into view is a palace that is both familiar and unfamiliar
The cold architectural lines and the iron-blooded atmosphere like a military camp all illustrate the identity of this building.
This place is the royal palace of [Great Yan Kingdom]!
But soon, Xia En saw it keenly.
Compared with just now, the time point of the palace in front of us has undoubtedly moved a lot further back.
Because, according to what the residents of the town just said, [Fanyan City] is clearly still in the process of being built.
The palace in front of him was already very complete and grand.
It was even more complete than the palace that Xia En had seen on his wedding day before.
This shows that the previous sense of flow of time was not an illusion.
Xia En probably arrived at the time after King Xin got married.
But he didn't know how many years passed between the two.
Soon, after a moment of searching.
Shane still saw Laila carrying the coffin.
Time seemed to have left no trace on her body.
Something to say.
Only her black robe became shabby.
At this time, Laila was walking in the palace carrying the [Eternal Coffin].
But the strange thing is.
The surrounding soldiers [Black Flame Walker] all seemed not to see her, allowing such a strange looking man to walk through the palace.
Not long after.
Laila came to a palace.
In front of the palace door, Laila put down the [Eternal Coffin], as if waiting for something.
After a while.
King Xin walked out of the palace gate.
Seeing the figure standing outside the palace gate, his expression suddenly became extremely complicated and he spoke.
"I also said that I sensed a strange legendary atmosphere."
"I didn't expect it was you."
At this time, King Xin's temperament was much calmer and more mature than before.
But at the same time, there was a slight sadness on his brows.
Looking at his appearance, Xia En suddenly understood that the Xinwang of this era had probably confirmed the authenticity of the prophecy of annihilation.
That's why he showed such an attitude.
Thinking of this, Xia En couldn't help but glance at the palace behind him.
Calculating the time, maybe An Bing is in this palace at this time?
King Xin continued.
"It has been ten years since we last met, right?"
"I have confirmed the existence of the world-destroying flood from the legacy of Augustine."
"What you said back then was indeed right."
There was a hint of regret in his voice.
"It's just that now, we don't have much time left."
