Chapter 1209 - 634: It Seems to Be Smiling
Xu Xin suddenly felt a bit creeped out all over.
"Yingying, how did you acquire your ability to travel through space and time? If I want to gain the ability to travel through space and time, is it possible?"
Xu Xin asked.
"Huh? What kind of question is that?" Xu Ying was also puzzled. "Of course, you can’t gain the ability to travel through space and time. I have this ability because the space-time around me was inherently unstable and I’m not supposed to exist in this timeline, so the world rejects me, thus causing this abnormal ability."
As she spoke, she spread her hands: "Perhaps this shouldn’t be called my ability, maybe it should be called... a side effect. It’s just that I’ve been able to exploit this side effect, so trying to use this for space travel as I do is impossible for you, let alone time travel, which even I can’t do anymore—it would just lead to erasure."
Then she looked at Xu Xin rather bewilderingly and said, "Didn’t I tell you all this before? Why are you suddenly asking again?"
Xu Xin paused, then told the others present what he had seen through his map ability.
The first ones to change expression were Xu Ying and Ji Chaoyang.
Xu Ying’s expression became terrible, while Ji Chaoyang fell into deep thought with a grim face.
"The red dot suddenly disappeared?" Zhao Xiaochuan asked, puzzled, "Does that mean... it was suddenly teleported away? But didn’t Yingying say that besides her or those you’ve given permission, no one could teleport? Wait a minute... could it be one of our own?"
He widened his eyes and looked at the others present: "Hey, hey, hey, could it be one of you?"
"How could it be?"
Qin Fu, who was lazily sitting to the side, couldn’t resist sitting upright and said, "We are allies; the Boss’ map ability wouldn’t display us as enemy red dots, right? Moreover, in recent days, none of the people here should have gone out."
If anyone slips out without notice in the World Tree, it’s equivalent to disappearing because even a ten-minute absence equals nearly a whole day without contact.
Xu Xin nodded: "Not one of us, I can be sure of that."
No way the red dot would be one of us.
Xu Ying’s expression turned even worse, and she gripping Xu Xin’s arm tightly.
"What does it mean then?" Wang Lei was also puzzled, then looked at Xu Xin and the others. "It’s not Yingying, nor one of us. The transportation routes have been sealed by the World Tree, so what does Brother Xin’s disappearing red dot in his head mean?"
Qi Xuefei’s eyes twitched: "You all look pretty grim; have you realized something?"
At this moment, Xu Xin, Ji Chaoyang, and Xu Ying all had dark faces, while Li Wenxi and the others wore expressions of uncertainty and confusion. Shi Wanyun’s eyes even showed a trace of fear.
They all thought of one possibility, a very frightening possibility.
"Xu Xin, are you sure that the red dot disappeared suddenly? Could it have quickly dimmed instead?"
Ji Chaoyang, originally brooding, looked at Xu Xin: "Your ability doesn’t show underground entities, right? If the opponent suddenly went underground or jumped into a deep pit, this situation might occur."
Xu Ying instantly turned to look at Xu Xin, her face showing a hint of hope, hoping for a positive response.
Xu Xin thought for a moment, then shook his head: "No, impossible, that red dot disappeared suddenly, I can be absolutely sure of this."
Despite being in severe pain and immobile when it happened, this was something he could confirm.
The brightness of that red dot far surpassed ordinary mutant creatures’—if it had dimmed from bright to dark, he would have noticed.
A red dot disappearing instantly, not even death could cause such a swift extinguishment. In his understanding, this could only be teleportation.
Li Wenxi also grabbed Xu Xin’s arm with some fear: "Does it mean that outside, that thing really is..."
"What exactly is it?" Wen Guixin asked discontentedly, crossing her legs, "Why do you all talk in riddles? So how did the red dot in Xu Xin’s head disappear?"
"Let me explain." Xu Ying spoke up, "Maybe I’m the one who knows it best."
"Just now my brother said that the thing attacking him was teleported away. Let’s assume, it was indeed teleported away."
"It was teleported away." Xu Xin confirmed this with a determined tone.
"You were badly injured at the time, barely able to take care of yourself, how do you know you didn’t see wrongly?" Xu Ying glared at Xu Xin.
"Alright, alright, hurry and explain!" Wen Guixin urged.
"Hmm...if it truly was teleported away, then it’s clear the opponent is someone possessing the same ability as me." Xu Ying said solemnly, "Someone like me, coming from that false timeline."
An entity from another timeline...
Faces changed for the ones who hadn’t understood yet.
"I can confirm that among the batch of people who traveled here, only I am left." Xu Ying bit her lip, "Meaning the person attacking my brother is an alien invader from the time-crossers."
"And from the information we know so far, the alien invader among the time-crossers is probably... that guy."
