Chapter 482: Useless Words

"So... can the master fulfill our long-cherished wish to leave here?" He clasped his hands and prayed to Li Yang sincerely.

Li Yang frowned. This was a really tough question, and he didn't expect it to turn into this.

"This..." Li Yang hesitated, and was about to refuse, but the old cat man spoke first: "Master, if you think our Chuayue clan is insignificant, you can ignore us. It's just..."

The old man's eyes dimmed, and his tone was full of vicissitudes of life:

"We are indeed at the end of our rope, and there is no future here. If you can stay temporarily and guide our people away from this place, it will be a great kindness to us. At that time, everyone in our people will be grateful and will do their best to repay it. Your kindness!"

The way he lowered his head looked so sincere that Li Yang couldn't help but feel a little pity.

These ant-like creatures and everything around them have been trapped in a desperate situation.

It would be too cruel to ignore them at this moment.

Besides, it seems that we can take advantage of this opportunity...

Thoughts were wandering in his mind, and the disease under his feet had begun to penetrate deep into the ground.

...

A few days later, on the other side of the universe, in the [Ark] space station.

T looked at the small plant in front of him for several seconds and sighed helplessly.

This is the seed of the world they collected.

All tests showed no problem.

The only problem is that it grows very slowly.

On Blue Star, because Li Yang has been feeding scattered [authority] to the tree, the World Tree can obtain enough nutrients.

In just a few days, you can have the potential to grow for tens or hundreds of years.

But in this universe, there is no such thing...

If we have to wait for the World Tree to grow naturally...

At least to the stage where it can be operated, it will probably take less than three to five thousand years, which is enough.

Do we have to wait for three to five thousand years for this thing...

T shuddered.

I don't even know if I can survive that long.

As he watched, a staff member responsible for monitoring the space station trotted over.

He saluted T and then hurriedly said:

"Miss Teresa, we have detected traces of a rift in the World Tree erupting near Gamma Andromeda."

"Perhaps some new civilization has emerged that broke the barrier alone. Maybe we can investigate it."

Before he finished speaking, the voices of Oniliyi and Li Yang came from behind:

"Oh? I just said how could someone's name be a letter."

"So your name is Teresa?"

Hearing this, T turned around suddenly.

"Li Yang? And...the Dream God."

Looking at the two people in front of her, she nodded involuntarily: "Yes...that's it."

"I'm sorry that I never told you my real name."

Li Yang nodded and didn't care.

Instead, he looked at the staff on the side: "Where is Gamma Andromeda? Can you show me the star map?"

The staff member quickly took out his own panel, tapped it a few times, and gave it to Li Yang.

And Li Yang, after staring at the star map on the panel for a while, suddenly frowned:

"That guy has been here."

"My [Epidemic] clone has been to this place..."

"If that guy has my memory... I'm afraid he also knows the purpose of the World Tree..."

"This movement is probably caused by him."

T, or Teresa raised her head subconsciously: "Then, do you want to go take a look?"

Li Yang drew out the Sword of Creation without any hesitation and opened the crack.

"Go, why not go."

"I want to see what kind of trouble that [Blight] that has inherited my memory can do."

...

After a while.

T, who was wearing a silver-white mecha, and Li Yang and his party appeared outside a devastated and ruined planet.

Looking at the green planet that was almost half eaten away by the disease, everyone felt a sense of desolation.

"After all, is it the instinct of the epidemic that has defeated human will..."

Artemis and Li Yang looked at each other and murmured to themselves.

Oniliyi squinted his eyes, trying to see something clearly from above.

After a long time, she slowly said:

"Li Yang, I see you."

"Ah... No, it should be said that it's you who is the [epidemic]."

"It's over there, far away from the World Tree, where the damage is most severe."

As he spoke, Oniriyi raised his hand and pointed to the area with the most craters on the planet.

Over there, disease tentacles hundreds of meters thick, like worms, burrowed through the planet's crust.

Just looking at it is disgusting.

Li Yang frowned and decided to go directly to see what kind of bad things that other version of himself had done.

After landing, the disease on the surface has formed a swamp that cannot be used by people.

And the being with the same face and the same memory as Li Yang was sitting in the middle of the swamp, with his head lowered and muttering something.

Li Yang was a little curious and planted many water lilies to cover the surface of the diseased swamp.

Then he walked slowly over on water lilies.

After the distance was almost the same, the almost crazy whisper reached Li Yang's ears:

"I didn't mean it...I didn't mean it...I didn't mean it...I didn't mean it..."

"I didn't want to kill you... I wanted to save people... I didn't want to kill people... I wanted to save people..."

"I'm a human... not a monster... I'm a human... I'm a human..."

Almost at the same time, T, who was looking for clues near the World Tree, also contacted him:

"Li Yang, there are still traces of civilization on this planet... until a few days ago, when it came to an abrupt end."

"I scanned the entire planet, but I couldn't find any signs of life."

"So, it's obvious..."

"This is probably a complete extinction."

"Just like what the plague has been doing..."

I don't know if he heard T's voice in Li Yang's ears.

Sitting in the black swamp, [Plague Li Yang] suddenly raised his head hysterically:

"I didn't! I'm not!"

"I'm not the plague! I'm Li Yang!"

"Demeter, tell them who I am!"

He roared while looking to his side.

But from the perspective of Li Yang and his party...

There was nothing there.

"Sure enough, he has been affecting the normal operation of the power of time..."

"He may have created a false me in his mind, using the name of the timeline to rationalize all his actions."

Demeter stood behind Li Yang, with a faint green light flashing in her hand, and had already noticed some clues.

But just after these words, the [Epidemic Li Yang] on the opposite side suddenly rose up, wrapped in thousands of tentacles, and attacked Li Yang:

"I will kill you! Prove that I am the real Li Yang!"

Li Yang frowned and quickly grasped the Sword of Creation in his hand.

The sleeping creatures around him swayed, as if they could no longer contain this vigorous impulse.

This anger and madness have completely made the guy out of control.
