It's not that Aponia was forgotten in the Deepest Place.

Instead, Elysia always felt that Aponia would come out without her having to call her, because Aponia always sensed Chen Luo very keenly whenever he appeared.

Perhaps Aponia is emerging from the Deepest Place right now.

"However, perhaps it was the seeds we left for the next civilization that led to the destruction of our world." Suddenly, Su's tone changed in a way that was hard to describe.

"What's the meaning?"

"Based on current observations, the earliest known civilization of Luo should be in the present, 50,000 years from now, not from 50,000 years ago. The terrifying nature of time is self-evident; changing something small 50,000 years ago could lead to a catastrophe 50,000 years later. In other words..."

"So, in other words, only one of our civilization and the civilization born from Alo can exist under Alo's control, right? Saving the Previous Era from the Honkai means that the current civilization is about to perish. Oh dear, I didn't expect Lolo to be under so much pressure, bearing the life and death of two civilizations." Elysia suddenly looked at Chen Luo with some pity.

For ordinary people, bearing the life and death of two families is one thing, but bearing the life and death of two countries is another, and for the most extraordinary, it's bearing the life and death of two races. Chen Luo, however, is bearing the life and death of two civilizations. To say that the pressure isn't immense would be impossible.

Elysia herself was not angry because Chen Luo did not save the civilization or choose the civilization. Instead, she felt sorry for the pressure Chen Luo was under. As expected of the popular Elysia.

"..." Chen Luo stood silently beside Raven.

The burden of the life-or-death struggle between two civilizations is too heavy for Chen Luo to bear; Chen Luo simply cannot save them.

The existence of Previous Era signifies the demise of the current civilization.

Chen Luo doesn't have much of an obsession with the Previous Era, at least for now. The only Previous Era Chen Luo knows of is Mobius, and at most, Klein. There really can't be any more.

The key point is that the only two people they knew survived in the Previous Era and made it to the future.

If Mobius didn't want to die, he could survive in this devastated Previous Era even without entering the hibernation pod.

As for Klein...

Chen Luo has done everything he could; now he can only leave the Schicksal.

So, without knowing anyone else from the Previous Era, they went to destroy the present era for their sake...

That's not what you call a Great Philanthropist; that's called Chaotic Evil.

You're so high and mighty, so amazing. You're trading billions of people in this modern civilization for a hopeless Previous Era.

Judging from the fact that the current civilization is still thriving, Chen Luo in the future has at least not replaced the Previous Era. However, Chen Luo the present does not know what changes he has made.

Although there are 13 people involved in the case here now, Chen Luo feels that they may not know the truth, or at least it is impossible for them to know the complete truth.

Chen Luo believed he knew himself quite well and that keeping it a secret was definitely the right thing to do.

"Aili, you're right, but there's one thing you're wrong about. Have you forgotten? At least from Ling's account, Rocco isn't from this world. He's from Different World," Su suddenly said.

"Oh, I remember now, but if that's the case, then I'm going to get angry." Elysia, who had been looking understanding, suddenly puffed out her cheeks, walked up to Chen Luo, and glared at him angrily.

"Hmm?" Chen Luo subconsciously took a step back.

What kind of trouble is this Previous Era woman up to now?

"If you were born in the current civilization, Alo, I could understand why you chose the current civilization over the other two. But since you are an outsider, you still chose the current civilization. That makes me angry. Am I, Elysia, not pretty enough? Or is our relationship not sincere enough?" Tears welled up in Elysia's eyes, and she lowered her head in disappointment.

"Um..." Chen Luo didn't know what to say for a moment when he saw Elysia in this state.

Hearing Chen Luo's hesitant, guilty, and self-reproachful tone, Elysia, who had her head down, smirked.

"Just kidding!" Elysia suddenly jumped up, startling Chen Luo.

"Sorry? We're really not that close." But at the same time, Chen Luo also uttered six words.

"..." Elysia's smile froze on her face.

"Ugh!!! I'm so angry! Kevin! Beat him up!" Elysia pointed at Chen Luo in a fit of rage, while simultaneously speaking to Kevin, who was standing there like a block of ice.

"You can't hit it." Kevin said coldly.

"Where's my sack? Where's my sack?" Angry Elysia suddenly started looking for her sack, almost forgetting that Chen Luo had taken it away.

I'm going to seduce him 100 times! 100 times!

Okay, use a burlap sack to cover it.

Remembering the sack in Chen Luo's hands, Elysia suddenly spotted the large net on the ground that could swallow a whole person.

Elysia grabbed the long handle of the large net and swung it towards Chen Luo.

If we don't have burlap sacks, a net will do.

"Holy crap!" Chen Luo was startled when he saw the huge net coming towards him, and then subconsciously pulled the Raven he was holding onto in front of him.

"..." Looking at the approaching net overhead, Raven glanced at Chen Luo with a look of utter despair.

Nnnd!

Chapter 234 The Fire Moth vs. Chen Luo [Armed]

"I'm sorry, it was all very sudden just now. How about this, I'll give you a penance scroll?" Chen Luo sincerely Raven to the raven wearing a net on its head.

Meanwhile, on the other side, at the culprit's place, Elysia was also poking her fingers together with her hands.

"That indulgence, if I remember correctly, was something I bought to make you forgive me, right? How did it become something I used to forgive you? So I spent 200 work points to buy an indulgence to make me forgive you?" Raven was furious as she looked at Chen Luo apologizing.

"This indulgence is worth 200 work points. If it really doesn't work, I'll just forget about the bet you lost earlier, okay? Please forgive me, dear Nata."

"Don't call me by my name like that," Raven said angrily.

While Chen Luo was apologizing, Eden was also trying to persuade Elysia.

"Is it possible that, Aili, Luo doesn't actually know us?"

"I know, I know that the current Luo is not the same as the future Luo. If Luo Luo can really travel to the past, it means that the current Luo is the youngest Luo, and he may not recognize us. But I don't think he doesn't recognize us at all."

"At least even if he had never met us before, he knew we existed and knew quite a bit about us. After all, he always manages to precisely and relentlessly test my limits," Elysia said with a sigh.

"Seriously, is mischief really the only way young boys express their feelings for girls? What immature boys!" Elysia couldn't help but sigh.

"..." Su remained silent.

"I am very grateful that you were able to take Ling home. Although the Elysian Realm can not be called home in a sense, I am already satisfied to see my sister." Looking at Chen Luo, who was apologizing to Raven, Sakura felt that it was time for her to step in.

"Well, it's alright. After all, she's a child who's been away from home for over 50,000 years. Bringing her back is our duty. Also, you've mistaken her for someone else," Chen Luo added at the end.

Chen Luo did not take credit for this. Just as Chen Luo had thought earlier, Chen Luo could not completely save the Previous Era because that was something Chen Luo could not do, at least not now.

Choosing between two civilizations is a major challenge for Chen Luo, but saving a little girl is not something Chen Luo thinks is impossible.

Especially since Chen Luo has a suitable tool, Chen Luo doesn't mind using something that is temporarily useless to him to save a little girl, especially one who seems to have a good relationship with him in the future.

This shows that the past is not entirely unchangeable, which is a good thing.

Different world settings may differ. In some worlds, the occurrence of a certain event is a historical inevitability, and no matter how you change it, it will remain so.

All of this is the choice of Steins; Gate, or you could call it the convergence of world lines.

The only way to escape Steins; Gate is not to fight it head-on; the only way is to fool fate.

Take Chen Luo's work, for example.

Chen Luo cannot change the fact that Ling has become the Herrscher of Corrosion, but Chen Luo can change the fact that Ling has completely turned to the dark side.

This shows that fate only demands a result, and the process may not be valued, at least not in this world.

This is a great encouragement for Chen Luo or Otto.

This at least proves the feasibility of saving Kallen.

Chen Luo's 3000 Primogem have been secured.

"... In any case, I still want to express my gratitude." Although she couldn't understand why Chen Luo was so insistent on emphasizing that he didn't know her, Ying said she didn't care.

"Thanks wouldn't be appropriate. If you'd let me spank Ling, I'd thank you," Chen Luo said sincerely.

"!!!" Standing right next to her, Ling, who heard it clearly, immediately covered her butt.

"... If possible, please be gentle." Sakura paused for a moment, then nodded.

Although this was a welcome party specially prepared by Elysia for Chen Luo, it didn't seem to be very welcoming to Chen Luo himself.

Although there will definitely be other programs later, judging from the situation, it seems that the later programs cannot be broadcast.

As for Ling, the poor child who was saved by Chen Luo once, she is now a major accomplice in this welcome party, so it is normal for her to be punished.

If it's just spanking, then Sakura can accept it.

"!!!" If Ling was only slightly desperate before, she was now truly desperate.

"Sister, you can't do this!" Ling hugged Ying's waist tightly.

The thought of being spanked by Chen Luo is incredibly embarrassing.

"... Luo, if you really want to punish me, then punish me. I won't resist." Sakura looked at her pitiful younger sister, paused for a moment, and then said to Chen Luo.

As the older sister, it's natural to protect her younger sister from harm. If her younger sister truly deserves punishment, then she should take that punishment upon herself.

It's just a spanking, isn't it? For a powerful warrior, it's not a punishment worth mentioning.

Perhaps...

"No, it was clearly my mistake, how can I let you take the punishment for me? Brother Luo, if you want to hit someone, hit me instead."

"No, hit me. As the older sister, I have a responsibility to take responsibility for my younger sister's mistakes, and I didn't stop her when Aili brought up this idea, which was also my mistake," Sakura said righteously.

"Wait a minute, if that's the case, then wouldn't I be the culprit? I'll take the blame!" Elysia jumped out when she heard this.

"..." Chen Luo's right eyelid twitched.

"But I know Lolo definitely wouldn't be willing to spank a girl as beautiful as a flower, right? After all, doing something like that to a beautiful girl means taking full responsibility." Elysia blinked and said.

"So, as compensation, how about I touch them?" Elysia smoothed her hair, revealing her elfin ears.

"No, I don't know you well," Chen Luo refused directly.

Although Chen Luo really wanted to touch it.

"Alright, stop making me sound like the villain, okay? I'm the one who's at a disadvantage, aren't I?" Chen Luo muttered.

"Okay, Xiaoling, Luoluo, I forgive you."

"It's always you, Sister Elysia, who has a solution."

"That's right," Elysia said proudly.

"However, since the current Lolo is the Lolo from before we met, we need to change our welcoming ceremony for him. And everyone must remember to keep the past a secret." Elysia suddenly said the last part loudly.

"If I let Lolo know too much right now, wouldn't that just give him the opportunity to seduce me? Lolo is already very popular among the Flame-Chaser of the Fire Moth. If he really finds out about those strategies, wouldn't he steal my title as the most popular member of the Fire Moth?"

"Oh dear, in order to protect my title as the most popular member of the Fire Moth, everyone please don't let Lolo know too much about the past," Elysia said to all the Flame-Chasers present, her hands behind her back.

As the true connection point of the Flame-Chaser, Elysia beautiful, elegant, and charming. She is also an innocent girl, but beneath her innocent appearance lies a mischievous and narcissistic side, full of "bad intentions".

For example, right now.

However, Elysia's charm goes beyond that. Elysia is an extremely thoughtful girl; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to win over all the Flame-Chasers.

Besides being half sincere, Elysia's words just now had an even more important other half.

For Chen Luo.

If Chen Luo receives help from the Flame-Chasers and uses a more suitable method to win over the renowned Flame-Chasers, it will undoubtedly deepen Chen Luo's bond with them. However, that would also make Chen Luo more painful or distressed after making the decision.

Although Elysia felt that Chen Luo's bond with Flame-Chasers was already deep enough in their memories, it shouldn't be deepened further.

If it goes any deeper, it could really kill people.

Making a choice between two civilizations is difficult enough; to make things even more difficult for Chen Luo would be a disservice to his contributions to the Previous Era.

Although Chen Luo did not save the Previous Era, Chen Luo can be said to be gradually saving each and every one of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers.

How exactly was it saved...?

Hmph.

"Emmm, I regret it." Chen Luo suddenly said, looking at Elysia's smug look.

"Huh?" Elysia was momentarily confused about what Chen Luo meant by regret.

Do you regret not touching your ears?

"You still need to spank her." Chen Luo looked at Ling.
