Chapter 66 Scope Restart
Chapter 66 Scope Restart
Cao Yanhua's expression kept changing.
He couldn't accept the facts Lin Yuan said at all, but Old Qin didn't object. In fact, he even indirectly confirmed that what Lin Yuan said wasn't a lie.
What's wrong with this world?
For a moment, Cao Yanhua felt his mind begin to confuse him.
"If that's the case, is this situation also part of your plan, Elder Qin?" He forced his head up, his eyes filled with complex emotions and confusion.
In the video, Old Qin glanced around and said calmly, "No."
"Don't think about it anymore. Everything that happened here is meaningless. For an existence of his level, restarting the area is not an impossible task." Lin Yuan also regained his composure.
He already has the answer.
"Rebooting the range?" Cao Yanhua was bewildered. He felt that the information he was receiving was completely beyond his comprehension.
Lin Yuandao explained, "You can think of it as a time reset, pulling time within a certain range back to a certain point in the past. Everything that happened during that time will become meaningless, and everything will start over. This also includes the memories of people affected by supernatural phenomena; no matter what they say now, you won't remember it later."
"That scary?"
Cao Yanhua felt a chill run down his spine, and his eyes were filled with terror as he looked at Old Qin.
He couldn't imagine it.
If Elder Qin truly possesses such terrifying strength as Lin Yuan claims, and is orchestrating events behind the scenes, controlling the world's development like a director, then are all the events that have occurred at headquarters also controlled by Elder Qin?
Are all these people just puppets being pulled along by invisible threads?
"You know a lot, but I couldn't see you in the past, and I can't see you in the future. How about we have a frank talk today?"
Old Qin spoke slowly, revealing the reason why he had spoken so much to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan scoffed, "Are you kidding me? If we really play the truth game, you can just reboot a whole area and reset my memories too. Wouldn't that mean I've been completely fooled?"
"It seems like today will be a bit of a disappointment."
Old Qin sighed.
He was genuinely curious about Lin Yuan.
A person who cannot see the past or the future could not possibly exist in the world, yet this person has actually appeared before us, and is so weak.
This really puzzled Old Qin.
And such a person is precisely the biggest variable.
Just like Zhou Zheng, if Lin Yuan hadn't logged off for a while earlier, some of his plans wouldn't have been able to proceed smoothly.
Since no agreement could be reached, Elder Qin was not prepared to waste any more time.
The ability to restart a range is indeed incredibly powerful, but the cost and effort required to achieve it are also enormous.
Old Qin comes from a special background, so he basically doesn't have to pay a price when using supernatural powers. However, his body is too old, and even just using supernatural powers puts a strain on his body, which he can't handle.
"But it doesn't matter, young man. As long as you still want to stay in this world, I will have the opportunity to find out everything about you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the video screen instantly turned into static.
Cao Yanhua's expression changed drastically. "Lin Yuan, is there any way to counter the area restart?"
He knew Old Qin's secret, a secret that could overturn everything, and he didn't want to go back to being a puppet who knew nothing.
"It's no use. Unless you have a safe house right now, there's no way to resist this kind of supernatural influence."
As soon as Lin Yuan finished speaking, a terrifying force enveloped the entire temporary command post.
So fast?
Lin Yuan was surprised, but unlike Cao Yanhua, he did not feel pain or regret. On the contrary, he looked around with great interest.
Under the influence of the supernatural, both he and Cao Yang lost control of their bodies. It was as if a movie was playing in reverse as they left the temporary office and returned to the conference room outside.
Then there's Cao Yang's somewhat strange enthusiasm and closeness, and the conflict between Lin Yuan and Guo Fan.
He tried to use his own supernatural powers.
But neither the curse of the entertainer nor the ghost bell in his mind seemed to have disappeared, without any reaction.
"I was completely suppressed. There's a reason why he said I was weak."
Lin Yuan understood this and did not try to resist again.
This strange change only stopped when Cao Yanhua and the others sat down with him at the start of the meeting, and at that moment, time began to flow forward.
"Lin Yuan, this is the situation in Dachang City. Please take a look."
At Cao Yanhua's prompting, Zhao Jianguo prepared to hand a paranormal file to Lin Yuan. Just then, someone interrupted, "Captain Zhao, isn't this a bit against protocol? After all, this Lin Yuan, right? He personally admitted that he's not the head of headquarters. Inviting him to this meeting was already somewhat irregular, and now to show such a confidential paranormal file to an outsider—is that really appropriate?"
Seeing Guo Fan stand up and question him, Lin Yuan knew that everything had started again.
Then he will...
and many more!
Lin Yuan suddenly realized that he had not lost his memory of what had just happened.
He turned to look at Cao Yanhua, who said, "This is Guo Fan, one of the people in charge of Dajing City. He came with us to deal with the starving ghost incident."
Lin Yuan frowned. "Minister Cao, do you remember what you just said to Elder Qin?"
"What did you say? What Old Qin?" Cao Yanhua looked blank, clearly not remembering anything.
Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that because I am special and do not belong to the original inhabitants of the delusional illusion, I was not affected by the scope restart?
it is good!
Very good!
Old Qin, you sit firmly behind the scenes, using all living beings as your pawns, and now you're watching me too, aren't you?
But do you know that I haven't lost the memory of what just happened?
Let's see whether it's you, who can know the future and control everything, who is more terrifying, or me, a weak "youngster," who will seek justice for Zhou Zheng!
Guo Fan retorted angrily, "Lin Yuan, don't think you can build a connection just because you know Old Qin's name. Do you really think I don't know you exist at headquarters? And even if you do have a connection with Old Qin, so what? Even if Old Qin himself were here, I'd like to see if he dares to stand up and stop me!"
Good guy!
Are they really treating Qin Lao as a mascot?
Lin Yuan couldn't help but give him a thumbs up, "As expected of Ghost Eye Guo Fan, he's got guts!"
Guo Fan was taken aback, his face growing increasingly grim. "My codename isn't Ghost Eye, Lin Yuan. You did this on purpose, didn't you? Fine, fine, I'll see what gives you the right to be so arrogant!"
