Chapter 1808 The Second Chance?
“Quite the opposite,” Uromoka said smugly.
“I did not ignore the rules and restrictions; all operations were carried out within the framework of the rules.”
"The black python you saw is not my true form, but a vessel that I left behind from the realm of gods."
"Or, you can think of it as a 'scene' that I left behind in this world, that's fine too."
"My true body has always resided in the realm of gods and has never descended into reality."
"Because the authority I wield is 'reincarnation,' which belongs to the category of 'execution' and 'feeling,' I must constantly reincarnate in order to advance to a higher position."
"The reason I am showing up at this moment is because you want to complete the time loop, which happens to meet my 'reincarnation' needs."
"You complete your closed loop, and I gain my insights from it. It's a win-win situation."
“I see…” Babayak’s voice of realization came from the darkness:
"So... those ancient inscriptions carved on the walls of those ruins were actually left by you?"
"Have you always been guiding our Goberin tribe to grow and prosper?"
"Some of it was left by me," Uromoga admitted without hesitation.
"After all, if you want to eat apples, you have to water and fertilize the tree."
"I'm not like the Dragon of Time, who just takes what's readily available."
"However... not all the information was left by me."
"As for the other part, I don't know who left it. He is of a higher status than me, and I cannot ascertain His identity."
Babayak remained silent, seemingly trying to unravel the meaning behind Uromoka's words.
Instead, Xing Anlin spoke up noisily:
"So what exactly are you here for?"
"If you're just trying to comprehend the power of reincarnation, you could simply stay put and remain silent, right?"
"Could it be that you came here specifically to show off your divine status and put on airs?"
Uromoka: "..."
"I'm here to give you a second chance."
"Hmm?" Xing Anlin raised his eyebrows, indicating that he was listening and that Uromoga could continue.
“Babayak should have already mentioned it to you. Once you complete the time loop, your soul will not be able to withstand the impact of the power of the rules and will be completely annihilated and dissipated,” Uromoga said bluntly.
"Yes, that's exactly what Old Deng said." Xing Anlin's eyes had lost their fear; instead, his face was filled with a smug smile.
"But there's no other way. This is something I have to do, otherwise Brother Li will be dead."
"Tell me, what's the biggest act a person can put on?"
"What could be better than saving the world?"
"And I, Xing Anlin, am now the most crucial link in saving this great calamity of the world!"
"Such heroic deeds are surely a supreme honor."
Uromoga and Babayak fell silent, and for a moment no one spoke.
Only after a few seconds did Uromo finally speak calmly:
“But apart from me, Lu Li, Evelyna, and Babayak and a few other Gobelins, no one else knows about your heroic deeds.”
"Wearing fine clothes in the dark, is that really to your liking?"
"So? Do you have a better idea?" Xing Anlin shrugged.
"You can now talk about your 'second chance'."
“Actually, you didn’t have to sacrifice yourself now.” Uromoka’s calm tone carried a clear urgency:
"If it doesn't work this time, we can wait for the next cycle, for the next opportunity."
"I've repeated this so many times, I'm sure I'll find the best solution!"
Xing Anlin shook his head and chuckled softly.
He didn't continue on that topic, but suddenly asked:
"How many questions has Brother answered so far?"
Uromoga was silent for a moment, then spoke:
"Question 13."
"He wasn't quite sure of the answer to that question, and he was looking at the red megaphone you prepared for him."
"Can I give him a hint?" Xing Anlin asked, pursing his lips.
"No," Uromoga replied decisively.
"The power I left in Lu Li's body has been completely exhausted by your previous two actions. You can only reconnect to the Soul Realm and interfere with the past when the past Babayak has the authority of 'loyalty'."
"Oh, why didn't you hold back more strength back then?" Xing Anlin rolled his eyes and retorted without any politeness.
"And you call yourself a demigod who wields the power of reincarnation? You've handled things so hastily..."
Uromoka: "..."
"So that means I can only wait?" Xing Anlin picked his nose idly.
"This is your last chance. Are you really sure?" Uromoga tried to persuade him again.
"Once Babayak has the authority of loyalty and the Soul Realm is fully connected, you will no longer have a choice."
There's no going back in this world!
"Look at what you're saying. The fact that I'm here and can talk to you proves that I've already made my choice." Xing Anlin mimicked the playful tone Uromoga had used when he first appeared, speaking in a casual manner:
"Otherwise, you would never have seen my handsome face!"
Uromoka: "..."
"Alright, alright, I wasn't joking with you anymore." Xing Anlin chuckled, his tone returning to seriousness.
"Since you wield the power of reincarnation, could you help speed things up?"
"Only thirteen questions, waiting is so boring."
“This is truly the first time I’ve ever seen a death row inmate urging someone to execute him as soon as possible…” Uromoka sighed.
"The choice is yours, I can't interfere."
As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown substance seemed to flow in the darkness in front of Xing Anlin.
They quickly clump together and stretch into long strips.
It eventually transformed into a small, black, metallic snake.
The snake's body is curved in a circular shape, with its head and tail facing each other, leaving a gap about one finger's width in between.
The metal snake ring can move freely in the middle, and with a little force, the head and tail can be interlocked.
“This ouroboros ring is the embodiment of my authority over ‘reincarnation’,” Uromoka’s explanation slowly echoed from the darkness.
"As long as you connect the two ends together, the waiting time can be skipped."
"At that time, you will be able to directly possess the body of the 'past' Babayak and give him instructions."
"No, it's quite convenient." Xing Anlin nodded, grasped both ends of the snake ring with his left and right hands, and was about to fasten the head and tail tightly.
But just then, Uromoga's puzzled voice came again, finally asking:
"You...are you really not going to take a second chance?"
"Once the soul is destroyed, there will be nothing left!"
“Hey, actually I already had a second chance.” Xing Anlin smiled smugly.
As he moved his hands, he murmured:
"Without Brother Li, I would have died on the very first day of the apocalypse..."
An invisible force erupted from the ouroboros ring, surging violently through the dark space.
After circling around Xing Anlin several times, it completely disappeared!
