Chapter 1003: One Hundred Years, One Thousand Selves
Chapter 1003: One Hundred Years, One Thousand Selves
After hearing the request from the Taurus Director to "save someone" from the Source God Platform, the Gemini Director's mind was completely blown, turning into a mess.
What does it mean to go to the Source God Platform to save someone? Besides me, are there others who have entered the Source God Platform? Are they crazy?
"Who entered the Source God Platform? Where are they now?"
Finally, the topic was brought back on track...
Upon hearing the Gemini Director's question, the Taurus Director let out a sigh of relief and quickly responded:
"The ones who entered the Source God Platform are Olivya and the new Aquarius Director. They both went into the Source God Platform..."
"Wait! The new Aquarius Director?"
Upon hearing the Taurus Director's words, the Gemini Director took a deep breath and asked with a complex expression:
"Then what about Camus? Did Camus also fall?"
"Well... he didn't die, but he defected from the Bureau last year..."
"Ah?!?!?!"
Bombarded by one explosive news after another, the Gemini Director's head spun, and stars appeared before his eyes. He took a few rapid breaths and then asked with confusion:
"Why?! Camus must have had a reason for defecting!"
"His goal was the Palace of Observation... He has already taken his place there."
"Ah?!?!?!"
"..."
Please stop saying 'ah'! The topic keeps getting derailed by you!
Realizing that the Gemini Director might be too far behind in terms of information, the Taurus Director decided to explain everything that had happened since the Gemini Director's absence. She took a deep breath and began:
"Anyway, while you were away, I was chosen by the Palace of Observation to be the sitting member. But Aquarius wanted to take that position, so he colluded with the Extermination King's Assembly... Don't ask me what the Extermination King's Assembly is, you'll understand as we go along... Last year, a new member named Lyon joined the Virgo Division..."
Using the simplest language possible, the Taurus Director explained everything that had happened while the Gemini Director was away, filling him in on the "plot" he had missed during his hiatus. After finishing, she took a sip of water to relieve her dry throat and said with a bit of a headache:
"Lyon and Olivya have been involved in most of the recent major events, and they know more about them than I do. You can ask them when you go to save them."
"Okay..."
After memorizing a bunch of earth-shattering changes, the Gemini Director nodded with a dazed expression, then asked with a blank look:
"So... Lyon, is that his name? How did he enter the Source God Platform? And how did you receive the message?"
"He and Olivya were in the West Carla ville Kingdom, where they discovered the resurrected Serpent Director, who was brought back by the Extermination King's Assembly..."
"Ah?!?!? The Serpent Director has been resurrected?!"
"..."
I knew it!
Hearing that familiar 'ah', the Taurus Director's patience finally ran out. The usually kind-hearted old lady grabbed the mirror in front of her and slammed it down, then said with annoyance:
"Stop saying 'ah'! Go and ask them yourself! They're waiting for you on the Primordial Tablet!"
"Ah?!?!? They're on the Primordial Tablet too?!?!? Jeanne, are you still there? Don't leave! Please explain it to me first!"
...
That was... a part of the Gemini Director, right?
Looking at the little boy riding on the neck of a strange creature, the Red-haired Bureau Chief couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She then raised her hand and greeted him:
"Gemini Lord! We're here!"
Is that the Gemini Director?
Upon hearing the Red-haired Bureau Chief's words, Lyon lifted his hand and threw the God of Flowers and Midsummer back into the pile of gods. He then stood up and walked towards the Red-haired Bureau Chief.
The God of Flowers and Midsummer had many believers in the Green Meadow Kingdom. She suggested that in order to allow herself and the Bureau Chief to leave, she would send down a divine message to her believers, asking them to find the Scorpio Division in Olle and surrender, and then have the Scorpio Division notify the Cleanup Bureau headquarters.
Among the twelve directors, the Gemini Director was the one who frequently hung out at the Source God Platform, searching for ways to completely kill some ancient true gods and had the ability to enter and exit the Source God Platform. As long as the Cleanup Bureau could contact him, he could be asked to come and save them.
"You two... Hsss..."
As the Gemini Director approached the couple, he was about to ask a question when he noticed the two piles of deities on the Primordial Tablet. He couldn't help but gasp, raising his chubby baby arm and pointing behind Lyon and the Red-haired Bureau Chief. His eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, "What's going on with those deities?"
"Didn't Lord Taurus inform you?"
Seeing the young boy's apparent lack of knowledge about the situation, Lyon and the Red-haired Bureau Chief were momentarily taken aback. Lyon then briefly explained the current circumstances, and as he did, the Gemini Director's childlike hissing sounds echoed across the Primordial Tablet.
"Hsss... So, the deities who joined forces to block me are members of the Extermination King's Assembly!"
"Huh? You managed to deceive the Assembly and ascend to deity status right in front of over a hundred deities?"
"Hsss... What did you say? Not only did you three hold off the siege, but you even captured them all in one go!"
"Huh? Wasn't it the three of you? He took on a hundred of them alone? And he only got slightly injured?"
After hissing and laughing for over twenty minutes, as if his tongue had been scalded, the Gemini Director's curiosity was finally satisfied. He sat on the shoulder of the strange creature, staring intently at Lyon.
This is... I feel like I've been away for not just twenty years, but two hundred years from the mortal world... The recent changes are too significant, and they all seem to be related to this new Aquarius Director.
"Lyon, right?"
After nodding to the "new colleague" he was meeting for the first time, the Gemini Director offered a friendly smile and extended his cute little palm.
"I'm Jimmy, Jimmy Hasley, half of the Gemini Director."
Half? So, the Gemini Director is indeed two people?
Upon hearing this peculiar introduction, Lyon nodded and shook the Gemini Director's tiny palm, introducing himself in a similar manner:
"I'm Lyon, Lyon Lane, the newly appointed Aquarius Director. I'll be troubling you this time."
"It's my pleasure."
"Zzzz..."
As their hands, large and small, clasped together, a familiar, piercing noise rang in Lyon's ears.
[Name: Hundred Lives, Thousand Selves (Clone, Omniscience, Immortality)]
[Appearance: A hundred-year-old man, or two ninety-nine-year-olds, or three ninety-eight-year-olds, or four... or a hundred one-year-old infants, and at the moment before death, the simultaneous appearance of a thousand hundred-year-old versions of the current holder.]
[Abilities: Lifespan Clone, Thousand Bodies with Universal Knowledge, All Life from One]
[Cost: Regardless of the original age, after using this abnormal object, the user's external appearance and internal physical state will immediately match that of a hundred-year-old, and it will remain so until death.]
[File: A peculiar abnormal object passed down through generations in the Gemini Palace of the Cleanup Bureau. It was created by a hundred-year-old cleaner who attempted to split himself to gain eternal life.
At that time, humans had not yet reclaimed their "lifespan," and their lifespan limit was only 101 years. Facing the impending end of his life, the then-Gemini Bureau Chief, Aixinge Ba'erna, decided to conduct an unprecedented experiment on his hundredth birthday...]
[Evaluation: A unique and powerful abnormal object. With each split, the user's appearance ages by one year, allowing for a maximum of a hundred one-year-old infants. As long as one clone survives, all the others can be resurrected.
Additionally, when the user's life is about to end, they will split into a thousand hundred-year-old versions of themselves, dying after one second. Therefore, it is crucial not to be an enemy at the moment of their death.]
[Immersion Value: Matches the user's maximum immersion value]
