When this evil thought was thrown out.

Lu Zun has returned to his residence and is awaiting good news.

For many years, he used this method to murder countless people who opposed him.

The "Thought Projection" technique has certain limitations. It cannot control many knowledgeable individuals. If the thought is not set properly, they are very likely to become mindless zombies.

Lu Zun was ultimately not a god who controlled everything.

What do you do if you encounter this kind of person? You have no choice but to kill them.

Moreover, it was their closest relatives who did it!

But this time...

Lu Zun encountered an unprecedented situation.

The moment that thought entered the mind of 6-year-old Qin Yiguan, it was as if a magnet appeared, pulling Lu Zun's consciousness away.

Lu Zun actually entered the consciousness of the Young Qin Yiguan!

at this time.

He saw twelve figures standing in Qin Yiguan's mind, but these figures remained motionless.

At the same time, he can also see the perspective of the Young Qin Yiguan.

The child concealed a dagger in his bosom, then let out a clear laugh.

The man named Qin Shenhu heard his son's laughter, and with a gentle smile, he came to his son's side, bent down, and was just about to pick him up.

A cold glint flashed.

For some reason, that child's frail body contained such great strength that he pierced through Qin Shenhu's body!

The beautiful and gentle woman arrived shortly afterward.

From her perspective, she could only see Qin Shenhu's back as he half-squatted on the ground, and her child, resting their chin on the man's shoulder, expressionless.

As the woman approached.

The child suddenly pushed the man's corpse over, and a cold glint flashed once more; the woman was then stabbed in the abdomen!

He attacked his own mother!

Then, with a cold look in his eyes, the child kept stabbing at the two corpses. In the end, he even tore off a piece of flesh from the woman's wrist with his teeth!

All of this.

These are all Lu Zun's memories, and also the truth that Lu Zun saw back then.

Now, all of this is also being projected into Qin Yiguan's mind.

Qin Yiguan, now 18 years old, stared wide-eyed.

He stood on the stage, while the two Leviathan behind him were still tearing each other apart in battle!

The boy's body remained still, but his heart was in turmoil.

In Lu Zun's memory, he saw those 12 figures standing in his consciousness, and Qin Yiguan recognized some of them.

Armored Guardian, diminutive Child, the 'paper doll' Boundless One, and... the Black Calamity shrouded in black mist!

This means...

At that time, my split personalities were all in a static state; they weren't in control of my body, they were just observing?!

Especially Black Calamity...

It didn't move?

It did not Awakening; none of its personalities Awakening!

A layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on Qin Yiguan's forehead, condensing into beads that slid down his cheeks.

Who... who killed my adoptive parents?!

At that very moment, Lu Zun, now just a torso in the distance, screamed hysterically, "Haha, Qin Yiguan, you killed your own parents! It was you, no one else! I didn't control you! No one else controlled you!!!"

A thunderclap resounded in Qin Yiguan's mind.

His Pupil contracted, becoming like a black dot.

"I killed my parents?!"

"Impossible!"

Why would I kill them!

"Why can't I remember!"

And at this very moment.

The memories in his mind continued to 'play,' and Lu Zun saw even more content!

Young Qin Yiguan had just killed his parents, his hands stained with blood!

Then he got up, went to the bedroom, and started searching through his father Qin Shenhu's belongings!

He found a miniature projection device and pressed the switch.

One by one, the photos were projected.

The first picture is a group photo.

Several people stood in the desolate wilderness, and Qin Yiguan recognized many of them!

Dark matter scientist He Hongyuan, chief doctor Jiao Shensan of the Research Society, his adoptive father Qin Shenhu, and his own mother, but the mother was holding a very small baby who seemed to have just been born.

There is a line of small text below the photo.

'June 19, 2104. Today, I encountered an abandoned baby, and I decided to raise him. I have a son now! -- Qin Shenhu.'

Qin Yiguan's mind was reeling.

A photo from 18 years ago... Is that child me?

Who abandoned me?

But then he saw the Young Qin Yiguan from his memories, and continued flipping through the photos.

The next image is an 8-second animated sequence.

Hundreds of bodies, covered in dust and some even stained with blood, stood there, filled with rage, shouting, "We can't let that child live! He brought us disaster! He's guilty!"

disaster?

Are you referring to me as that child?

What disaster have I brought!

Memories of Young Qin Yiguan, I flip through the photos again.

This is an aerial photograph, also taken 18 years ago.

On the barren ground, cracks spread out like a spider web, and blackish-red light emanated from within them.

In the next photo, the perspective has been zoomed in.

But there lay a tiny baby in the very center of the crack, staring wide-eyed at the sky, neither crying nor making a sound.

Qin Yiguan stared at the baby. The baby's tender little face seemed somewhat familiar—it was his own face when he was just born!

Qin Yiguan then looked at the cracks around the baby. The black and red light was spreading and twisting, like a spider web-like scar growing on a barren land, and it seemed to be wriggling slightly with the flow of blood.

Qin Yiguan's eyes widened again, and he slowly raised his hand to touch his temple...

A chill inexplicably crept into his heart; a vast and dark secret, impossible to unravel, was silently devouring his soul.

Those photos are all from 18 years ago!

And those spiderweb-like cracks were Leviathan!

Jiaolong said that 18 years ago, Leviathan descended upon the earth, and it was her father and his teacher who together repaired Leviathan and averted a great disaster.

18 years ago...

Qin Yiguan is currently 18 years old.

Was I born inside Leviathan?

"And the adoptive parents also participated in mending that rift?"

"It was around that time that they found an abandoned baby, and that was... me!"

Qin Yiguan gently touched the spiderweb-like scar on his temple with his fingers, thinking about his incredible ability.

Why can I log into the Metaverse without using any devices?

Am I not from this world?

Where do I come from?

"Why would I cruelly... kill my own adoptive parents?!"
