The Plan
A blue plasma shield erupted.
The entire Guardian of Bianliang was pushed hundreds of meters away, creating a quiet space within the defensive barrier.
The doors of the Ring Research Institute slowly opened.
Bo You, seated in a hovering wheelchair and followed by a dozen or so people in white coats, slowly emerged from the crowd.
Even with the nearly destroyed Ring Research Institute in the background, Bo You still wore a faint smile, seemingly fearless.
In that instant.
The Bo You stopped moving forward and slightly raised his hand, causing the entire group to slowly come to a halt.
Ahead, on the bluestone pavement of the imperial palace, three figures slowly approached.
It was none other than Qin Yiguan, Jiang Yizhou, and Shitian.
At first, the two stood a hundred meters apart, silently gazing at each other.
After countless confrontations across different timelines, this is their first meeting.
Qin Yiguan stared at the scene before him. Behind those white coats was the all-too-familiar Ring Research Institute. The white building with its courtyard now seemed to have landed on the land of the Song Dynasty 1060 years ago, with an extremely incongruous feeling.
Its emergence has already exposed countless problems.
"Thanks for your hard work."
But then I saw my Bo You sitting calmly in his hovering wheelchair, a faint smile on his face. "Qin Yiguan, you've worked hard."
Qin Yiguan looked up at the aged man and knew very well that he was Fu Bo You, the director of the Ring Research Institute.
As for that "You've worked hard".
Qin Yiguan had already understood the meaning behind it.
The building itself, the Ring Research Institute, is clearly in a state of extreme damage. Perhaps this landing is its last gasp.
However, it happened to land in the Song Dynasty, right in front of the imperial palace, and directly above the underground icehouse containing countless materials.
So what if the building is damaged?
All the materials can be obtained here, and a complete renovation can be carried out.
Subconsciously.
Qin Yiguan glanced at Jiang Yizhou and Shitian beside him, his gaze flickering.
Meanwhile, the Bo You in the distance laughed even more deeply, watching Qin Yiguan and his two companions. "My field team, Level 5 staff, return to the team."
A flicker of emotion flashed in Qin Yiguan's eyes as he quietly sensed the unusual atmosphere around him.
At this moment, the silence around Qin Yiguan was so profound that you could hear a pin drop.
suddenly.
The bald-headed young monk, Shitian, slowly took a step forward.
Qin Yiguan's Pupil suddenly contracted.
But then Shitian put his hands together in prayer and said loudly, "Amitabha! You old man in the wheelchair over there, what nonsense are you spouting? There are no employees of yours here."
Qin Yiguan remained silent for a moment.
What a clueless Shitian!
At this moment, Jiang Yizhou, who had been silent all along, slowly stepped forward. Even fearing that Qin Yiguan might attack from behind, he activated a blue vortex as he walked, in a leaping motion, and finally appeared beside Bo You. He stood shoulder to shoulder with Bo You and slowly turned around to gaze at Qin Yiguan from afar.
Qin Yiguan didn't say much, only smiled slowly, but a hint of loneliness appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, Jiang Yizhou frowned slightly and slowly lowered his head.
"Hehe."
But Bo You chuckled, "Qin Yiguan, do you know why I'm here today?"
Qin Yiguan slowly raised his head, "No need for nonsense. Your scheme has now been fully exposed."
"Taking all the materials is only one of my purposes for this trip."
The Bo You replied calmly, "At the same time, I'll also kill you while I'm at it."
"Kill me?"
But Qin Yiguan raised an eyebrow and said, "Wouldn't you be losing your most hardworking employee if you went?"
But the Bo You slowly shook their head, saying, "Your understanding of time is still at the most basic level."
"I am killing you now, so from this day forward, you, Qin Yiguan, are dead."
"But those in Qin Yiguan who lived before this are still alive."
The Bo You glanced at Jiang Yizhou beside him and said, "Your past will continue to cycle endlessly, helping the Ring Research Institute obtain materials again and again. As for me, all I need to do is come to this Song Dynasty palace every four years and take all the materials away."
"Qin Yiguan, in your understanding, time is still linear."
"In my understanding, time is like a sheet of paper, which can be folded at will."
At this moment, Qin Yiguan slowly raised his head, "So, this is the first time you've come to kill me?"
"Um."
The Bo You, adopting a preaching tone, said, "On several occasions before, the moment the stone door to that underground ice chamber closed, I took all the materials without harming you."
"And this most recent time."
"I've realized something's wrong. Your actions seem different from before; there are many subtle differences."
At this moment, a faint killing intent appeared in the eyes of the Bo You looking at Qin Yiguan. "Therefore, I intend to stop the wheel of time from turning today!"
But Qin Yiguan suddenly revealed a hint of disdain. "Now that you think about it, the Gemini Metaverse can recreate the entire past, so your Ring Research Institute can know everything that happened in the past. But in contrast, you can't know anything about the Future, not even for a second. So, I'm really curious, where do you get the confidence to kill me today?"
Bo You made a startling comment. "You mean the Victim, right? The personality that arose from your ' Living Dead Syndrome '? You're thinking that as long as there's Victim, no one can kill you?!"
Qin Yiguan suddenly frowned.
"Ha ha!"
But then Bo You burst into laughter, saying, "The Ring Research Institute has conducted such thorough research on you, and as the director of the Ring Research Institute, all the research results ultimately converge on me. I know everything about you; I even know all your mental illnesses, the causes of each of your personality traits, and your abilities!"
The Bo You's voice suddenly lowered, "Our Ring Research Institute, everything is prepared!"
"The Lu Zhoulang must have revealed some information to you."
"Back then, I cloned some parts of your body."
Qin Yiguan's eyes widened slightly. "Some?"
"That's right."
The Bo You smiled faintly, "To be precise, two were ultimately successful. One of them is now imprisoned in my Ring Research Institute. As for its effects, you no longer need to know."
"And the other one."
The Bo You shrugged slightly, "From a cloning perspective, it's somewhat of a failure; it doesn't perfectly replicate your appearance or your abilities."
"But what's amazing is that its brain still has incredible plasticity."
"Therefore, after the cloning was completed, I implanted a mental illness into its brain."
The Bo You stared silently at Qin Yiguan, his face devoid of any emotion. "It was all for today, to kill you for my own purposes!"
