Chapter 126: Scarlet, Dawn, Turning Evil
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Feng Qi opened his eyes, he was already in the real world.
In the face of Blackie’s hunting, Feng Qi’s initiative to attack was like an ant trying to shake a tree, and it was completely ineffective.
In the end, he still died in Blackie’s hands.
He got up from the bed and sat down at the desk.
After opening the notebook, he began to record his gains in the future dream.
This habit allowed him to proceed in an orderly manner every time he transmigrated to a future dream.
As the ancients said, only by strategizing could one earn victory.
If he did not make plans while he was free, after entering the future dream, he would waste precious time. Therefore, information integration and planning were very important.
At this moment, his psychokinesis was released. He grabbed a pen and began to write in the notebook.
Firstly, there was a record of his strength increasing.
Ability increase 1. Obtain the prefix title and innate ability, Tough Teeth. The effect of the ability is to greatly increase the strength of the teeth. It can be used for melee output under special circumstances.
Note: This ability is not very useful in normal battles, but it can have unexpected effects under unusual circumstances.
Ability increase 2. Obtained the innate ability, New Moon Curse Imprint, allowing my physical fitness to obtain a small increase in all aspects.
Note: This ability can be fused and upgraded to a prefix title. You might obtain unexpected special abilities that you can look forward to.
Ability increase 3. Bloodline Evolution Points increased to 536, still a beginner human.
Note: Focus will be placed on increasing bloodline evolution points in the future.
This time, Feng Qi only recorded three pieces of information regarding the enhancement of his abilities in the future dream. It was not much.
However, his strength had already increased significantly compared to the first time he entered the future dream.
Next, he began to record his gains in intelligence.
This time, he had obtained a lot of information in the future dream. He had also found the answers to a few questions that he had been puzzled about for a long time.
Under the control of his psychokinesis, the tip of the pen touched the paper and began to write.
Future Dream Intelligence Gain 1. Confirmed that the Scarlet Research Institute was always on the side of humans and is a trustworthy guardian force for mankind.
Derived intelligence 1: The list of geniuses in the headquarters of the Scarlet Research Institute was actually made to protect the new generation of human geniuses. The goal was to fight against the dark forces that secretly hunted them.
Derived intelligence 2: The humanoid domain creatures in the underground core area of the headquarters of the Scarlet Research Institute are actually researchers of the Scarlet Research Institute who voluntarily participated in the counter-infiltration plan and volunteered to be experimental subjects.
Derived intelligence 3: The counter-infiltration plan has nothing to do with the Path to Heaven. The ultimate goal of this plan is to send the human experts who have been transformed into semi-domain creatures into the Dark Side and let them destroy the connection nodes between the Dark Side and the real world and cut off the connection between the two worlds.
Note: Future line can cooperate with the Scarlet Research Institute in many aspects, including the Brain in the Vat plan or obtaining the authorized account of the future database.
Future Dream Intelligence Gain 2.1 learned through interpreting the information of the memory fragments using the Nightmare ability that Mu Yao has been searching for a miracle that can help humans defeat the domain fields. She is also the human miracle that Lu Yue mentioned.
Derived intelligence: In history, the growth of many experts and the formation of forces were all related to Mu Yao. For example, Ye Huang, Mu Qing, the founder of Scarlet Research Institution, Wei Wei, and so on… Her goal was to help humanity rise and defeat the domain invasion.
Note: For the time being, there’s no information to prove Mu Yao’s exact background. I think it is very likely that the Path to Heaven is related to her.
Perhaps those mysterious experts who had disappeared had all been sent to the Path to Heaven, which was the front line of human resistance to the domain invasion.
Future Dream Intelligence Gain 3.1 discovered another characteristic of Blackie. It has the special ability to quickly devour energy, and it is far stronger than I’d previously guessed.
Note: This might be the reason why the narrator wanted me to take the path of extreme physical growth. Blackie’s restraint on spell-type creatures seems to far exceed that of body cultivators.
Unresolved question: Blackie’s pursuit has always been an unsolved mystery. I can’t understand how it can accurately locate me 1,500 years later.
Note 2: According to the information in the Scarlet Research Institute, Blackie is very likely a created lifeform, similar to a Suction Cup, but the exact situation is unknown.
After recording the information he had obtained in detail, Feng Qi sat in front of the desk and fell into deep thought.
Next, he thought about the direction of the future.
After pondering for a moment, he put down a few thoughts in his notebook.
A moment later, three future line options appeared in the notebook.
Option 1: Continue to join the Scarlet Research Institute and share all the information I know, especially the fact that there is a spy among my students. Then, use this as a breakthrough point to find out who the secret force behind the spy is with its help.
Note: If this future line can expose the dark forces, it will have an extremely far-reaching impact on the future. It might even change the background of the next future dream.
Secondly, I can also use the influence of the Scarlet Research Institute to investigate Blackie’s background and get leave me messages from the future.
Option 2: Follow Mu Qing to form the Dawn army and ask about her secret information in person when Mu Yao appears. Perhaps a large number of historical secrets can be obtained in this timeline and 1 can learn the secrets of the Path to Heaven.
Note: When Mu Qing established the Dawn army, I was almost 50 years old, so there’s a high chance that 1 will die before I turn 50 for various unknown reasons. I might not gain anything.
Option 3: Completely turn evil and try to join the mysterious dark organization. During this period, constantly reveal my rebellious emotions to the outside world to obtain the active contact and invitation of the organization.
Note: This future line is too dark and there are many uncertainties. It’s very likely that 1 will be sent to the guillotine by law enforcement before the dark organization can contact me.
After writing down the direction of the three future lines, Feng Qi hesitated.
Especially the third future line. He could imagine how painful it would be for his future self.
If the previous future line was to be in darkness and yearn for light, then this future line was to be in darkness and yearn for the abyss.
If he chose this future line, the psychological burden he would have to bear would be huge.
Since he was turning evil, he would definitely do many things that went against morality and standards.
It was like a devout believer personally breaking his own firm beliefs. He would definitely feel incomparable suffering in his heart.
After joining the dark organization, he even needed to personally slaughter humans. During this period, he might even personally witness the destruction of human civilization in his hands.
This was undoubtedly mental torture.
[It’s like asking you to kill your family with your own hands, then destroy your country, and finally destroy the civilization of your race. This process will definitely make you feel extremely pained, especially since all of this is real and not a game.]
The narrator’s words spoke his thoughts.
His future self was real.
Behind every email message was a real historical timeline.
Just thinking about it made him feel pain. If he really had to carry it out in the future, the process would definitely make him feel worse than death.
At this thought, he crossed off the third option.
Other than the many variables in the execution process, this future line was too cruel to his future self.
Unless he had no other choice, he did not want to take this option.
The next two future lines were to join the Scarlet Research Institute and the Dawn army.
After hesitating for a moment, he asked,
“Narrator, which timeline do you think is better?”
[If you join the Dawn army, you will die young. Perhaps you will die accidentally before it is formed, let alone see Mu Yao.]
[1 think it’s safer to join the Scarlet Research Institute. After all, stability is the most important thing. We can slowly expand our intelligence information. If we take big steps, we might end up with nothing.]
After hearing the narrator’s answer, he could not help but nod.
“Actually, I’m also leaning towards the future line of the Scarlet Research Institute.”
After making his decision, he put a tick beside the future line of the Scarlet Research Institute.
After closing the notebook, he stretched.
The path ahead was still shrouded in fog.
However, he firmly believed that with his efforts, there would be earth-shattering changes in the future sooner or later. Human civilization would also continue to rise under his influence and obtain the final victory.
“My road is long and the journey far. High and low, up and down, I will search fl At this thought, he could not help but mutter.
[I have a feeling that after you deal with the dark forces lurking in human civilization, the future dream will undergo a huge change.]
“Why do you say that?”
[The dark forces are like a virus that prevents human civilization from growing healthily. During this period, they assassinate geniuses and destroy the Scarlet Research Institute. There are also various destructive actions that we don’t know about. This is why the growth of human civilization is constantly hindered. After they are completely removed, there will be no worries for the growth of human civilization.]
[At that time, humans will only have to face the invasion of domain creatures. It will surely be a direct battle. This can completely be resolved by relying on you constantly moving the cultivation techniques in the future database.]
After hearing the narrator’s answer, Feng Qi could not help but nod.
He had actually thought about this before.
If he did not eliminate the dark forces, no matter how he plagiarized the cultivation techniques in the future database, human civilization would not be able to grow healthily.
As the influence of the dark forces continued to expand, they would eliminate the favorable conditions that could help humanity grow. Just like assassinating human geniuses, they would eliminate all factors that were beneficial to humanity’s rise.
Therefore, if they did not deal with the dark forces at the root, the future of humanity would still be worrying.
As for the improvement of his strength, although it was also important, it could not completely change the future.
Even if he was given $100 million now and had 100 chances to enter the future dream, with Blackie’s restrictions, his strength might not be able to grow to the point where he could change history in these 100 future dreams.
Even someone as strong as Mu Qing was dead. The mysterious Mu Yao, who might be stronger than Mu Qing, was also dead.
Unless these 100 trips to the future dream could make him as strong as a god in killing monsters and leveling up and he could easily change the fate of humans with a wave of his hand, otherwise, choosing to brainlessly kill monsters to level up and increase his strength was the most inefficient action.
Moreover, he did not have $100 million.
With limited funds, it was extremely stupid to use purely increasing one’s strength as the core option.
Promoting the progress of human civilization and leading the rise of all mankind was the best choice.
“Narrator, do you think I’m right?”
[Your narration system has expired and can no longer answer your question. Please renew your subscription.]
[The renewal method is as follows: Daily (address it as daddy once), Monthly (address it as daddy 25X), Yearly (address it as daddy ioox). Please choose your plan.]
“I can do without the stupid system, screw this!”
