Better Let Him Be the Aeon of Erudition
Nous stared at the Herta for a moment, then turned his gaze to Li Yu and said, "It's impossible to calculate. The future is already in chaos. Mr. Li Yu, could you answer me what your vision of the future is?"
It finally asked Li Yu the question, a question that amused the Herta even more. "Weren't you anchoring the Universe? Didn't you know everything? Why are you asking Li Yu now?"
Should we let Li Yu handle the Erudition Aeons? What's the point of your mechanical head? It's even inferior to Li Yu's!
In response to the question from the Nous, Li Yu pondered for a moment before replying, "Two Aeons are being born in the Sea of Quanta. They are the Twin Goddesses of Creation. In the future, the Sea of Quanta will merge with this world, and there will be even more possibilities for them to integrate."
What does it mean that two new Aeons were born on the other side of the Sea of Quanta? What does it mean to Twin Goddesses of Creation? Will the Sea of Quanta merge with this side?
Li Yu's news completely baffled Nous, and there were even more possibilities in the future? In Nous's logic, more possibilities meant more variables.
Nous gazed at Li Yu, but said nothing more in the end. Having obtained the answer it wanted, it saw no need to linger any longer. After leaving a message for the Herta, it departed from the Pathway Rift.
"I'll tell you how to seal off the Perpetual Motion Machine." With those words, the Herta was kicked out of the Pathway Rift.
Herta was extremely satisfied. She looked down at the Hunt arrow on the back of her hand and asked eagerly, "This can summon the Hunt, right? Can I try it?"
As she spoke, her eyes were filled with longing. To be able to summon the power of the Aeons, and with three chances to do so, Herta desperately wanted to try.
"Try it and you'll die! Lan isn't known for her good temper. If you can withstand her arrows, then it's up to you!" Li Yu didn't care; he was offering a summoning attack.
"Go ahead and try it. As long as the Herta can withstand it, Li Yu has no objection. Curiosity could kill the Herta? That's quite possible."
Hearing this, Herta was stunned. Oh well, she didn't want to die yet. Besides, she was now more interested in the future that Li Yu had mentioned, as if she were getting closer to Li Yu's secret.
She didn't dwell too much on the Hunt; instead, she asked Li Yu, "Is the future you told Nous about real?"
Herta was more interested in this matter; the many possibilities for the future were simply too tempting, so she was eager to learn more about it and make some preparations.
"Of course it's true. After all, there are too many worlds in the Sea of Quanta. Who knows what the future holds? When the Sea of Quanta is completely integrated, what do you think the possibilities will be like?" Li Yu asked matter-of-factly.
Hearing Li Yu say this, Herta felt that something was amiss, but upon further reflection, it seemed to make sense. They had been to the Sea of Quanta and naturally knew about its unique characteristics.
After thinking for a moment, she decided to stop worrying about it. She could deal with the future later; all she needed to do was prepare herself.
Now that she has created Perpetual Motion Machine, she might as well secretly upgrade all her puppets; those puppets can also serve as powerful combat forces.
It's not a big problem for one person to form an army. With military force, she will have the ability to deal with whatever happens in the future.
After chatting with Herta for a while, Li Yu also began preparing to leave, saying goodbye to some people and informing them of his departure.
While sending messages, Li Yu returned to his residence. As soon as he stepped into his room, Li Yu looked up at the uninvited guest inside. A young girl was sitting in his room, looking down at her phone.
"Yo, isn't this Wolf Lord? You've come to see me?" Seeing Wolf Cub in my room was quite a surprise, especially since he came running over just as I was about to leave?
After glancing at Silver Wolf, the Aether Cartridge she had placed by the bedside, and a cell phone, Li Yu roughly guessed the other party's purpose.
"You're finally back! I thought you were going to stay with that guy forever!" Upon hearing Li Yu's voice, Silver Wolf put down his phone and looked at Li Yu.
"Hmm, it seems you're still holding a grudge about Herta banning your account. So, our Wolf Lord lv999, what brings you here?" Li Yu raised an eyebrow. Although he guessed what was going on, he didn't say it directly.
Silver Wolf didn't waste any words upon hearing this, and directly pointed to what he had brought, saying, "This is Aether Cartridge, and some of my network technology materials. We want to exchange a promise with you!"
Li Yu was speechless upon hearing this. He couldn't help but retort, "Is my promise so cheap? You think you can get a promise from me with something so little? Dream on!"
If he actually agreed, it would be too embarrassing, so it's impossible, absolutely impossible. Li Yu would never agree to such a thing, besides, it's just a matter of internet technology.
Even if she doesn't have it, it's okay. If given time, Asagi Aiba can still do it. And while the Aether Cartridge is precious, it's not that valuable!
"I knew it! Fine, you make your demands. We want a promise from you!" Silver Wolf knew Li Yu wouldn't agree easily, so let's try a different approach and let Li Yu set the terms.
Hearing this, Li Yu looked at Silver Wolf with interest and asked quietly, "Are you sure? Aren't you afraid I'll make you a rag doll or something? You're quite brave to let a man make demands!"
Li Yu looked at Silver Wolf with great interest; this was truly courageous. Silver Wolf simply looked at Li Yu quietly and said, "Kafka said that if that's the case, she'll accept it. So, what are your conditions?"
Wow, they've really gone all out! They've even considered this? And it's Kafka? If it really comes to that, Li Yu believes no one will owe him anything.
Thinking of this, Li Yu looked at Silver Wolf and said, "So here's the question: what do you plan to do with this promise? For example, to heal Firefly? Or to address Kafka's problem? Or perhaps Blade's problem?"
"Don't worry about this, I won't make things difficult for you!" Silver Wolf pouted. How could this guy be like this? He knows about their affair, it's really annoying.
Silver Wolf didn't want to say anything at all, as long as it wouldn't make things difficult for Li Yu. Hearing this, Li Yu thought for a moment and then agreed, saying, "Alright, then leave the things here. As for what I want you to do? I haven't thought of anything yet!"
Li Yu smiled as he looked at the Silver Wolf, giving them a promise that they could do anything for Li Yu in return. This way, they would be even, and if he didn't want to do anything they asked of him later, he could simply use that promise to make up for it.
As for these technologies, Li Yu readily accepted them; perhaps this was exactly what they wanted? After all, relationships are something that can be built up quickly through mutual exchange.
In any case, Li Yu won't lose out. If they ask her to do something difficult, Li Yu can simply refuse, right?
"Hmph, alright then, I'll be going now, otherwise that narcissistic guy will find out. Oh right, thank you for the arrow you shot!" After saying that, Silver Wolf disappeared from Li Yu's room.
In the end, only the phone and the Aether Cartridge remained. Li Yu picked them up, examined them for a moment, and then put them away. He planned to give them to Bronya to play with when he got back, and have her make a copy. After all, she was Silver Wolf too. Giving her a copy and then making a copy would be perfect!
As for what Silver Wolf said at the end, Li Yu didn't take it to heart, because the arrow hadn't reached its destination yet and would need some time to be effective.
Li Yu waited for more than a day, and Kasukabe Yō finally returned. Everyone was present. After glancing at Kasukabe Yō's current condition, Li Yu nodded.
That's quite impressive. They've actually embarked on their destiny and become so strong. They must have learned quite a few skills.
"Alright, let's go then, let's go back first!" After saying this, Li Yu waved goodbye to Ruan Mei and the others, then used his spatial power to take Izayoi away from where they were.
Watching Li Yu leave, Herta snorted and then said, "Ruan Mei, we also need to make some preparations. The future is going to be quite exciting, and many more possibilities will appear in our world!"
Upon hearing this, Lygus was the first to laugh and said, "Isn't that a good thing? I'm really looking forward to it!!"
The more possibilities, the better. Since Li Yu appeared in their world, infinite possibilities have emerged, unlike before when the Nous blocked all unknown possibilities!
Exploring the unknown is what geniuses like them need to do, not for Nous to seal everything off, preventing people from exploring and seeking knowledge!
After discussing it for a while, the geniuses began to make preparations. They all tacitly avoided mentioning the Perpetual Motion Machine again, since everyone knew very well what would happen if the outside world found out about it.
A war would be absolutely inevitable at that time. Even Screwllum had not considered replacing the Perpetual Motion Machine with something like that for the time being. The Herta could use it for now.
Li Yu was unaware of what happened next. He had already brought Izayoi and the others back to the Main World. After dropping them off at Abant, Li Yu said, "If you want to go back, go back on your own first. I'll come over later!"
Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Izayoi immediately raised her hand and said, "Let's go back together. Since you have something to do, we can just stay here and have some fun!"
At this point, Izayoi was eager to try it out. "We're already out here, why go back so soon? We might as well play for a while longer before heading back!"
Li Yu didn't seem to care. He waved his hand, indicating that they could do as they pleased, and then disappeared from the spot!
