Chapter 1878 Hope Shattered?
"died?!"
Li Luo felt like the sky had fallen.
Just a dozen seconds ago, she thought Lu Li was incredibly insightful and in control of everything!
She felt that no matter how big a mistake or error she made, the other party could anticipate it and cover for her.
So now Babayak is telling her that Lu Li is dead?
And he's been dead for twenty years?!
How can we even meet now?
The body is probably already completely rotted away!
Babayak noticed the shocked expression on Li Luo's face and roughly guessed what the other was thinking, so he spoke up to comfort her:
"Lord Lu Li's departure is only temporary."
"I think you, as one of his wives, should know that Li Yun, who died as a challenger on the Battle Demon Stage twenty years ago, was just one of Lord Lu Li's seven avatars."
“I do know that, but…” Li Luo could no longer continue speaking.
Because she came from the future, three hundred years from now!
The man in front of me, named Babayak, probably has no idea what the future holds.
But Li Luo knew perfectly well what was going on!
To prevent Yongye from taking over the other clones, Lu Li had already arranged for the other clones to 'end their own lives'.
They either deliberately put themselves in danger or directly threw their bodies into layers of seals.
The soul is poured into the Nuo puppet, serving as an anchor point, making it difficult for it to leave.
Objectively speaking,
The 'Reconnaissance Li' who traveled back in time using the power of 'time' and took over Li Yun's demonic body is the one among all of Lu Li's clones who is most likely to come back alive!
But now,
Babayak, however, said that he was already dead.
He died twenty years ago.
The last glimmer of hope was completely extinguished.
"Don't worry too much, Lord Li Luo."
Just as Li Luo was in despair, another voice, clearly not from Babayak, entered her ears.
The woman's gaze shifted and quickly landed on another man, Gobelins, who seemed to have come to meet her.
His height and build were very similar to Babayak's, and his clothing was also quite similar.
A glint of cunning and wisdom shone in their bright eyes.
The only difference between the two is that the one who spoke later looked much younger than Babayak.
"Lord Lu Li's arrangements are always meticulous and flawless. Sometimes what seems like a dead end can actually turn out to be a bright future if viewed from a different angle."
"Who are you...?" Li Luo looked at Gobern, who was speaking.
“Arost, Lord Li Luo,” Gobelin, whose face also bore many wrinkles, replied.
"I have had several indirect contacts and one brief direct contact with Lord Lu Li. I must say, he is the most charming male I have ever seen!"
"If I were a human woman, I think I would be hopelessly infatuated with him."
"Oh, I forgot to add that I am an intellectualist, and I usually can't resist someone with a very high IQ and rigorous logical thinking."
“Uh…” Li Luo blinked, clearly taken aback by this overly frank self-introduction.
For a moment, I didn't know whether to continue following Arost's lead or to pay attention to the Gobelins who were appearing one after another around us.
However, the tactful Arost wouldn't let the topic fall flat.
Observing the unusual expression on Li Luo's face, he immediately switched to a topic that the other party might be interested in, and the whole process was incredibly smooth.
"Of course, you are unlikely to trust me completely based on these few words."
"But that's alright, because my father, Mit, will tell you everything and explain everything!"
"You will gain a complete understanding of everything that has happened over these 308 years!"
"Whether it's directly related to Lord Lu Li or indirectly related."
"Wait..." Li Luo frowned slightly and interrupted:
"Three hundred and eight years?"
"Shouldn't it only be three hundred years since I arrived here?"
"Uh, what I mean is, what time interval are you referring to when you say 308 years?"
The question was too direct.
So much so that Li Luo regretted it slightly as soon as she said it.
However, eager to find out, she didn't care about all that.
"What I'm referring to is from the moment Lord Lu Li arrived in the Demon Realm as the Great Demon Li Yun and completely separated himself from the Endless Great Forest until the present moment."
Arost smiled kindly and answered honestly without any concealment:
"As for the time when you came here, it is indeed three hundred years ago. This can be inferred from the 'Traces of Time' on your body."
Li Luo froze on the spot once again.
After a long pause, he finally spoke with suspicion:
"Can you still see the remaining 'Traces of Time' on my body?"
Arost smiled, a smile tinged with pride.
He winked at Babayak beside him and replied:
"Our Emperor can replicate part of the effects of the Time Authority using a living array, so what's so strange about me being able to see the 'Traces of Time' remaining on your body through my mental vision?"
“No, it’s not surprising that we can see the ‘Traces of Time’…” Li Luo added, her words quickening:
"What I mean is that you were able to determine the exact time I arrived using the 'Traces of Time'..."
The woman stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence, as if she had noticed something more worthy of understanding.
She pointed at Babayak, and hesitated before speaking:
"You just said that your Emperor can replicate some of the effects of the Time Authority using a living array?"
"Is that the scene I saw during the battle to become a god, where demonic energy and holy light coexisted?"
“That’s right, Lord Li Luo.” Babayak took over the conversation, and at the same time sealed the previously collected body parts in an iron coffin as tall as himself, handing it to Arost:
"The relevant technologies and knowledge were all obtained by Lady Evelina from the realm of the gods."
"Unfortunately, my skill level is insufficient and my strength is limited. At present, I can only replicate the power of the authority to the level of a demigod."
"If we want to go further, we can't guarantee the results 100%."
"Demigod-level power... wait, didn't you just mention Evelina?" Although Li Luo felt that the other party was answering her questions truthfully, the doubts and confusion in her mind were growing stronger:
"Is this Evelina the Evelina I'm thinking of?"
“If you are referring to one of Lord Lu Li’s wives, I think these two should be the same person,” Babayak said with a chuckle.
“It really is her, she’s here too… but when did this happen?” Li Luo continued to press.
At this moment, the despair he felt when he learned that Lu Li was dead was completely gone.
“Three hundred and eight years ago, together with Lord Lu Li.” Babayak’s smile remained unchanged.
"Can I see her?" Li Luo asked again.
If they can't see Lu Li, they'll settle for seeing Evelina instead.
Anyway, according to Goebel, the two of them had their first contact with them 308 years ago.
As someone who shared the experience, Evelyna should be able to tell her about the remaining part of Lu Li's benefactor's plan.
however,
To Li Luo's dismay, Babayak shook his head helplessly, just like before.
