Holding Luo Hongzhe's cell phone, Bering drove the car without saying a word.

Starscream behind him finally stopped eating Lan Kong's fingers and looked at him curiously: "What did that guy just say?"

Not long ago, Starscream finally remembered why Zou Ye looked familiar to him.

I bet that guy is the unlucky guy who was caught by Bering with him earlier!

Looking at the box held in the Witch's arms, Starscream breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.

Fortunately, I thought about rushing over and killing Bering, instead of running away like this guy.

Now it seems that I’d better make some money here!

Not to mention anything else, Starscream still has all his limbs and is getting closer to his "origin", while Zou Ye has his head ripped off, leaving only his heart in a small box!

In comparison, although my thoughts are a little less pure, at least the result is good!

Isn't there an old saying that goes, "One's actions don't reflect one's heart"! Even if I had tried to twist off Bering's head before, I didn't succeed in the end.

Thinking this way, Starscream suddenly felt no longer guilty.

Bering didn't know what kind of thinking changes she had gone through in her mind, and why she came to that incredible conclusion.

He is only a prophet, not a mind reader.

Just thinking about that, if he had the ability to read minds, he probably wouldn't be so worried now.

"Yes, even though the question was asked, the answer is puzzling," Bering frowned, "It would be better to say that it seems even weirder precisely because the question was asked..."

The witch was slightly startled when she heard this: "The answer is abnormal?"

Abnormal?

Bering smiled bitterly: "Yes, it's very abnormal."

He looked at the witch with a serious expression: "Didn't you tell me not long ago that Hermes has no entity at the moment and is still hovering in the sky of the peninsula?"

The witch nodded subconsciously: "Yes, sometimes I will collect information to determine Hermes... Wait, you mean?!"

The next second, the witch seemed to understand something, and her pupils shrank slightly!

Bering could only nod helplessly: "If the characteristics you described to me are accurate, then that guy is him."

"The man who stole the soul power from the abyss, the monster who caused the Peninsula Incident, Hermes."

Wait for his words to fall.

The witch was the first to object: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

She looked into Bering's eyes: "Hermes has not found a body suitable for him so far, and it is impossible for anyone to bring a body suitable for him into the peninsula during this period - unless that person is a complete lunatic!"

"Did you guess wrong?" The witch asked tentatively, "For example, are they actually just people from the Hermes sect?"

Bering shook his head: "No, I'm sure this is Hermes."

He took a deep breath and then said slowly: "Because I have spoken to Him personally in the future."

"He called me with the help of Luo Hongzhe's cell phone," Bering said. "He said congratulations on my return from the abyss, and called me...'child'."

Starscream next to him heard this and couldn't hold back for a moment: "Pfft."

She patted Bering's shoulder and said happily: "It seems that you have an elder without knowing it. Oh, judging from his tone, you may even think that he is your father..."

Bering didn't say anything to Starscream.

In fact, he is thinking about other issues now.

In that phone call, Hermes didn't just congratulate him.

He also said something...that Bering couldn't understand.

"It seems that you have overcome your difficulties," Hermes' voice on the phone at that time was so low that the gender could not be distinguished. "This is very good. At least you are one step closer to breaking away from the control of time."

A moment later.

Future Bering asked in a deep voice: "Are you really Hermes?"

Hermes' voice was still so calm: "Of course, it's true. As a person who has lived for a long, long, long time, taking someone else's name has become a boring thing. In fact,

I prefer to be more open about who I am because anyone who hears the name is going to respect it."

Listening to the cold boast on the phone, Bering said expressionlessly: "So, what is your intention in calling me now? And, if my guess is correct, you have weakened the connection between me and Zou Ye.

?”

Rarely, there was a smile in Hermes's voice. Although he still couldn't tell the gender, he could at least sense the emotion: "Purpose? Intention? My child, as a prophet, you should be better than me.

Understand me. If you don't know, it just means that the time for you to know everything has not yet come."

"And because of a certain prophet, I have sworn a long time ago that I will never reveal any useful information to anyone, especially you. This is fatal to me - I don't want the peninsula to

It happened again. It's rare to find a good body. I want a lot more than before."

He seemed to have made up his mind not to say anything to Bering. This would not change at all even if Bering observed the future countless times.

Hermes was tight-lipped and only talked nonsense.

After sighing, Bering said: "So you made this call just to disgust people?"

"No, no, no," Hermes said with a smile, "Actually, I'm not sure whether you have returned to the real world. This call is just a test. You know, ordinary people like us can't understand time at all, let alone

Needless to say, we are observing the future just like you, all we can rely on is our own judgment."

"You can understand that this is my signal of goodwill to you. Although I probably guess that you may return to the surface, I will not reveal this to you. I know that the Omniscient Society should be looking for you now.

Out of good faith, I will not reveal your location to them."

Hearing this, Bailing raised his eyebrows: "The reason?"

He didn't believe that Hermes would be so kind.

According to the witch, Hermes is a man who has reached a certain level of madness. This can also be understood. If someone has no body and his soul floats in the sky for decades, he may have some problems with his brain.

As expected, Hermes quickly responded: "It seems that you prophets are all equally keen. I really admire you. The favor of time on you is really enviable."

After briefly praising Bering, Hermes finally revealed his purpose this time: "In fact, I am looking for you this time just because I want a promise from you."

Bering: "What promise?"

Hermes: "Haha, actually you already know, right? You all have the ability of a prophet. Okay, but I don't mind saying it again. You should know what my purpose is, no matter what it is

You can guess it yourself from other people's mouths. Yes, I planned to sneak into Tianyuan to steal the law of time, but I failed due to various reasons. In the end, I could only steal the soul. Even so, I achieved "Hull"

Mos'pai, and the pinnacle craftsmanship of artificial life."

"But this time, my purpose has not changed," Hermes said softly, "I still want to sneak into the abyss and steal 'time'! For this, I need your help."

"As a prophet, although I don't know your relationship with time, I guess there must be some special connection between you and that cornerstone. Therefore, I hope you can go to Tianyuan with me in the future and help me find it.

Where the law of time lies!"

Bering sneered: "You want to steal time? That's ridiculous. Have you ever thought about the possibility that the prophet may be time itself? If this is the case, if you plan to steal time, aren't you poaching our flesh?"

Hermes: "No, no, my children, although my understanding of you is still very rough, but I can be sure that you are not time itself. Well, it seems that I have to break the vow today, and this

And it’s because of you prophets.”

"In fact, you people are not so much a part of time as they are rebels of time," Hermes said easily, "Think about it, if something as big as time falls on you, how can you

What can humans do? In the final analysis, you can only do what it wants you to do under the drive of time."

"But as long as you are human, you yearn for freedom, and all prophets are like this. Although you know the fate of other people, your own destiny is always in the hands of others. Therefore, you will want to resist. In fact, you are

One of the results of resistance is a dead prophet, haha!"

"Well, it seems that I said a bit too much this time. If I keep talking, I guess you will even reveal how old I am. In that case, I will hang up first. Regardless of whether you have received this call or not, I

Treat it as if you have received it. After all, you prophets are like this. You always like to treat things that may happen as if they have not happened, and modify things that will definitely happen as maybes."

"Goodbye then, prophet of this generation."

After saying this, Hermes hung up the phone.

Bering was left standing there alone, thinking blankly.

Time returns to the present.

It was probably hard for the witch to believe what Bering said, and she was still muttering: "Impossible, absolutely impossible."

When she said this, she kept biting her fingers and her eyes were complicated.

Bering can also understand her current situation.

As a witness to the Korean Peninsula incident, even if she did not contribute much, I am afraid she still has the responsibility to stand by and watch.

If Hermes is really resurrected...

People of the older generation like her would probably have to have Hermes knock on their door to drink tea one by one.

'However, Hermes wants me to go to Tianyuan...'

Rubbing his chin, Bering thought thoughtfully: 'Should I agree to him?'

After thinking about it, Bering felt that it could still be considered.
To be continued...
