Chapter 567 We Need Him
"Is that the abyss?"
Outside the headquarters building of the Academic Association, Xie Ling, who had returned to the Imperial Capital with Gu Changling, raised his head with a heavy expression.
He inexplicably felt that his eyes were stinging, and his white pupils seemed to be stimulated by something at this moment and began to convey something to him.
"This should be a big scene caused by Chu Ran."
What was surprising was that Future Xie Ling, with a stubble on his face, was also standing next to him.
After leaving the Abyss Research Institute, he did not return to his own timeline, but chose to stay in the past and do his part.
From the moment the extraterrestrial beings arrived, he started running around and helping a lot.
After all, the plan to assassinate Liang Jiangxing had been declared bankrupt, and he wanted to play a role.
"I'm still not used to having two Sherlings."
Gu Changling, who was standing next to the two of them, sighed: "This feels so strange."
Xie Ling rubbed his eyes and said nothing.
The middle-aged Xie Ling from the future laughed. He is now the same age as Gu Changling, and his strength is far superior. He has no scruples in speaking, "Old Gu, times have changed. You have to abandon many old things from the past." Understand and embrace the new world.”
He pointed at the shadow of the planet reflected in the entire sky, "Perhaps from now on, the era of harmonious coexistence between humans and abyssal creatures will come."
The corners of Gu Changling's mouth moved slightly, but he hesitated to speak.
He is not a very traditional 'resistance', but all professionals who grew up under Blue Star's old educational outlook will always have a trace of resistance that cannot be erased when the abyss is mentioned.
The inherent concepts brought about by two hundred years of struggle cannot be eliminated in three days or two.
But because he thought of Chu Ran, Gu Changling did not refute anything. Instead, he stared at the middle-aged Xie Ling and said, "I heard that in another timeline, I was killed by a kid like you?"
Xie Ling on the side became more energetic when he heard this: "Is this the case?"
He glanced at middle-aged Xie Ling: "Why didn't you mention it to me about showing your face like this?"
The middle-aged Xie Ling shook his head, "I have a last resort. Besides, that is already another fate that will never happen."
Gu Changling mentioned this not to settle a score, but just to tease him. Seeing him say this, Gu Changling nodded and said, "It's not easy for you either."
He had already learned part of the truth from the old dean.
After the time and space loop was closed, the old dean spied on that fate that would never happen. The cause and effect were relatively clear. Gu Changling naturally would not get angry over something that had not happened yet.
What's more, he and Xie Ling are considered teachers and students who have a relatively good relationship.
"I didn't expect to hear a human word from your mouth." The middle-aged Xie Ling was stunned, as if recalling something, and smiled with emotion: "Now it seems that it is still more difficult for you. easy."
"Sorry, let me interrupt."
Xie Ling stood aside and was left out for a long time. He clapped his hands and said, "Although the reunion scene between your teachers and students is very touching, can we have a priority?"
He lifted his chin and gestured to the sky.
Although the flesh and blood planet suspended above everyone's heads is just a shadow projected from it, the impact caused by that thing is also visible to the naked eye.
At least it was foreseeable that it would cause widespread panic in Blue Star.
The enemy outside the sky has not yet been solved. The biggest enemy of mankind and the nightmare that has plagued Blue Star for two hundred years has come again. The successive blows will probably make many people collapse.
"This is a trivial matter." Unexpectedly, Gu Changling just waved his hand: "With Chu Ran as a buffer, Blue Star's views on the abyss are gradually changing. We will report it to the Dharma God Association and let the community with a shared future for mankind speak out. Although Just blame Chu Ran."
"You want to use your junior disciple's influence to stabilize people's hearts?"
Xie Ling said slightly worriedly: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Firstly, we currently have no evidence to prove that this matter is related to him. Secondly, we cannot control the development of the situation. Whenever this planet causes something bad, Influence, I’m afraid no one will buy into the reputation you have worked so hard to create for your juniors.”
"You need to figure it out."
Gu Changling corrected him: "It's not the reputation I created for Chu Ran, but the situation that Chu Ran opened up with his own strength. Before he left, he also set up a new world-limited defense for Blue Star. With this credit, no one dares to question him.”
Xie Ling said with a strange look on his face: "He is not here, so you don't have to rush to sing praises."
Gu Changling shook his head: "It has nothing to do with that, and you didn't realize it? It's not that Chu Ran needs us now, but that we need Chu Ran."
Sherrington couldn't refute this statement.
Because this is the truth.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Changling dropped another shocking news: "I know what you are worried about. You are afraid that some fools will do bad things behind your back, and you are determined to push Chu Ran to the opposite side. Someone has already tried it on the side of the Community of Shared Future for Mankind. By doing this, he was probably questioning why Chu Ran didn't take action to solve Blue Star's troubles personally, but instead allowed the situation to evolve into this situation, causing so many casualties. "
Xie Ling's heart moved. He first looked at himself twenty years later and found that his face was full of inscrutability, as if he had expected it. He couldn't help but ask: "What's the result?"
Gu Changling had a smile on his face and asked instead, "You are always foresight, didn't you see something?"
It would have been better not to talk about it. When it came to mentioning it, Xie Ling's face was filled with unhappiness: "I was originally observing an important node of fate, and encountered a terrifying thing. I almost lost my eyes. Cutting off the fate line can't do it. Treating this sequelae, my insight into destiny has been limited since then.”
Then he pointed at the middle-aged version of himself: "In addition, this guy is in the same time and space as me, which completely disrupts the observation of fate, and my professional characteristics have been abolished."
The middle-aged Xie Ling shrugged his shoulders: "Everyone treats each other, and my strongest method has failed because of you."
Naturally, Gu Changling didn't want to get involved in the bickering between the two Xie Lings. To be honest, one Xie Ling was enough to give him a big headache. The presence of two Xie Lings would be doubly painful.
So he simply said: "The result is obvious. Anyone with a normal mind will know the importance of Chu Ran to Blue Star. The big countries openly express their support, and the small countries have to endure it even if they have complaints. Not to mention that the Abyss Sect is basically suppressed. Now that the violence has been carried out, no one dares to have any ill intentions towards Chu Ran.”
After a pause, he said meaningfully: "The development of the situation is on the one hand, and the more important reason is that Chu Ran has shown enough terrifying strength. Now he is fully capable of becoming Blue Star's ballast. Reassurance."
Xie Ling was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said: "I agree with this. Is there anything I can do to help?"
He thought of the middle-aged Xie Ling next to him, and temporarily changed his words: "It's us."
