Chapter 300 [Truth No. 008—Mrs. Serenity]


    "Huh? Resurrection... a strong man from history?"


    Even with Xia En''s determination, the first time he heard this sentence, he couldn''t help but wonder if he heard it wrong.


    After all, no matter how you look at it, it is too shocking.


    "Speaking of resurrection is a bit inaccurate."


    "After all, the bodies and souls of those ancient powerful men have been obliterated over a long period of time."


    Jane continued: "[The Truth Society]''s plan is actually to collect the data of those strong people and clone their bodies based on historical fragments and projections in the promotion ritual."


    "Finally, the woven memories are injected into these blank bodies to revive them."


    "Can it be regarded as a different kind of ''resurrection''?"


    There was a hint of mockery in Jane''s tone.


    Obviously, she didn''t like this method of resurrection very much, and she was even a little disgusted.


    Upon hearing this, Xia En immediately thought of Edward who appeared in the [Pirate Principality] ritual.


    To be precise, it should be the personality slice called the "Observer".


    Xia En was previously curious as to why he called himself "Observer" at that time.


    But now that I think about it, it seems that his purpose in entering the promotion ritual was to collect Augustine''s data during observation!


    Thinking of this, Xia En suddenly felt creepy.


    Obviously, his promotion ritual was by no means an exception.


    The [Observer] must have broken into similar promotion dungeons more than once, secretly peeping at Augustine again and again, and collecting various information from his actions.


    Moreover, the [Observer]''s objects of observation are not only Augustine, but also those powerful figures who dominate an era.


    How many times has the [Truth Society] done this kind of action?


    How many powerful people''s data have been completely collected by them?


    The most important thing is, has the [Truth Society] "resurrected" these people in this era?


    Just thinking about these questions, Xia En felt a chill in his heart.


    In fact, the plan of the [Truth Society] is filled with a sense of blasphemy that disregards life and personality and plays with memory.


    This feeling is not as direct as the **** rituals of the sect, but it is still evil that goes against human nature.


    Do these guys think of themselves as creators?


    Seemingly sensing Xia En''s worry, Jane said, "Don''t be so nervous."


    "As far as I know, this plan of the [Truth Society] did not go so well."


    "Even if sufficient data is collected, the final personality will be strangely shifted due to unknown reasons."


    "Not only that, the cloned body cannot truly reach the level in history."


    "However, they should have produced a batch of semi-finished products..."


    Xia En couldn''t help but ask: "What is a semi-finished product?"


    Jane patiently explained: "The [Truth Society] deliberately retained only the fighting skills of certain strong men and input them into the bodies prepared in advance."


    "Although they don''t have the memory of the strong men in history, their combat prowess is equally impressive. They can be called natural fighting machines."


    "Previously, when [Truth Society] and [Hui Sect] and [Youshu Sect] clashed, they relied on this batch of semi-finished products to withstand the opponent''s offensive."


    Xia En looked astonished: "So that''s it..."


    He had previously found it strange that most of the members of the [Truth Society] were scientists, and they might all have amazing talents in their respective fields, but in the field of combat they were often no match for the Mystics of the same level.


    How did this [Truth Society] persist under the siege of the two major esoteric sects?


    Now, after hearing Jane''s explanation, Xia En had the answer in his heart.


    This series of explosive information undoubtedly brought a great impact to Xia En.


    It took him some time to silently digest these secrets and remember them in the deepest part of his mind.


    But soon, Xia En remembered something again.


    Some of this information is obviously not accessible to the middle and lower-level members of the [Truth Society].


    So, who is Jane who knows such detailed information?


    Xia En asked Jane directly his doubts.


    Jane did not hide it, but said in a slightly nostalgic tone: "Before I left the [Truth Society], my name was -"


    "[Truth Serial Number.008—Mrs. Serenity]"


    "[Mrs. Tranquility]..."


    Xia En subconsciously repeated the name, vaguely aware of some past events that should not be mentioned.


    What made him even more stunned was that Jane''s [Truth Serial Number] was actually NO.008!


    You know, the [Thousand Changer] who boarded the [Black Swan] and forced Xia En into the whirlpool in the sea, his code name is [Truth No. 107 - Gray Mask]!


    One is ranked after one hundred, and the other is in the top ten.


    The difference is clear at a glance.


    In other words, in the [Truth Society], there are only seven more core members than Jane!


    This can probably be regarded as a conversation between Xia En and the core members of the [Truth Society].


    Xia En couldn''t help but be curious: "Do you know what the [Truth Serial Number] of [The Undertaker] is?"


    After thinking about it, Jane said: "[The Undertaker] should be the rising star after I quit the [Truth Society]."


    "I have also heard about him. The situation is very complicated and he can no longer be regarded as an independent individual."


    "His [Truth Serial Number] should be around the first thirty."


    At this point, Jane said solemnly: "There is one thing I must remind you."


    "Although the number of [Truth Serial Number] is very important in [Truth Society], it does not represent the ranking of strength, but a comprehensive number of each member''s uniqueness and joining time."


    "Don''t underestimate the combat power of some members just because they are ranked low."


    Xia En nodded seriously and said, "I understand, thank you for reminding me."


    After going around in such a big circle, Xia En remembered the question he asked Jane in the first place.


    "Why do you say that someone asked you to wait for me here, but you don''t remember who that person is?"


    Jane said: "You should know that the [Truth Society] has the technology to delete and add memories."


    "And the person who deleted the memories related to it is none other than myself!"


    "Perhaps it''s because... that memory may have been invaded by some existence, or maybe that memory will change some of my views on you?"


    "Either way, there must be a reason behind it."


    The old woman''s words were filled with unparalleled confidence, which was trust in herself and her past self.


    Xia En couldn''t help but admire Jane''s mentality.


    Even though most of her memory about this incident has been erased, she is still willing to wait persistently in the [Federal Library] without wavering at all after hundreds of years.


    How can ordinary people do such a thing?


    However, Xia En was still very curious about Jane''s origins, so he asked.


    "Do you remember the names of your elders?"


    Jane replied: "Of course."


    "My father''s name is Jonas Medeiros and my mother''s name is Grace Vivian."


    "My grandmother''s name is Angel Vivian..."


    When he heard the name "Anqi", Xia En''s expression suddenly changed.


    "Angel Vivian?!"


    Although Xia En was not particularly impressed, he still remembered that he had met a genuine elf princess on the Emerald Island in the past. Her name is An Qi!


    Angel and Laila should be considered cousins.


    And the reason why Xia En cares so much is...


    If Angel is still alive, doesn''t it mean that there is a possibility that Laila is still alive?


    Thinking of this, Xia En asked with a slightly anxious tone.


    "Is your grandmother, Angel Vivian, a princess of the elves?"


    Surprise flashed through Jane''s cloudy eyes again: "Yes."


    "But... how did you know about this?"


    "It is said that my maternal grandmother remained anonymous for a long time, and even my father only knew her identity as an elf princess when we parted ways..."


    Shane noticed the emphasis in Jane''s words.


    "When they were separated? Why did your father and grandmother separate?"


    Jane shook her head and said, "I don''t know either."


    With a wry smile on her face, she confessed: "Actually, I have never met my grandmother and my mother."


    "Everything about them was relayed to me by my father."


    "However, my father was just an ordinary human being, so he passed away long ago."


    Xia En looked surprised: "It''s actually like this..."


    This situation was something he had never expected.


    Jane didn''t seem to want to continue this topic, so she cut to the chase and said, "In my only remaining memory, a certain existence asked me to wait in the [Federal Great Library] for a human who has close ties with the elves."


    "And you are the one I want to wait for."


    "After waiting for you, you will bring three incomplete sentences, and I will interpret them for you."


    "Do you know...what those three sentences are?"


    "...Three sentences?"


    Suddenly, an idea flashed in Xia En''s mind, and he remembered the messages on the last page of [Laila''s Magic Notes], and read them out slowly.


    "[The history you think...may not be the real history...]"


    "[What is observed...cannot be changed...]"


    "[But, you can cheat...]"


    These three messages had puzzled Xia En for a long time. They were full of the Riddler''s annoying aura, and they were difficult to decipher because of the incomplete information.


    So Xia En had to bury them in his heart for the time being.


    Now after being reminded by Jian, he poured out these three sentences.


    After listening, Jian sighed quietly: "It seems that my guess is indeed right."


    Shane asked: "What guess?"


    "When I was a child, my father said that my mother and grandmother did not die, they just went to places far, far away."


    Jane said in a complicated tone: "I used to think that my father said that just to coax me, but now that I think about it, maybe it was more than just a white lie."


    "ah?"


    Xia En was stunned, a little in disbelief: "You mean, they are still alive?"


    Jane nodded: "Based on my research and investigation over the years, it should be like this."


    Xia En was a little confused for a moment.


    If Angel and Jane''s mother were still alive, why did they leave the still young Jane?


    So, where are they now?


    And, what does this have to do with these three sentences?


    Jane''s eyes seemed to have the power to see through people''s hearts, and she explained softly: "The history we think of is not necessarily the real history."


    "This sentence is easy to understand."


    "History is recorded by people, so there will inevitably be some deviations in the process of recording and inheritance."


    "Some things have different interpretations in the eyes of different people."


    "And the best supporting example for this statement is... the [Ancient Dragon Extinction] incident."


    "You''re right...wait a minute, [Ancient Dragon Extinction]???"


    Xia En still agreed with Jane''s first few words, but when he suddenly heard the last sentence, he couldn''t help but look confused.


    How are the two connected?


    Xia En''s brain was spinning rapidly, and he quickly thought of a possibility and murmured.


    "Could it be that [the ancient dragon is extinct] actually has a hidden agenda?"


    "That''s right."


    Jian said with great certainty: "In other words, the [ancient dragon is extinct] in the eyes of the world is just a huge fallacy."


    Xia En had calmed down by now and asked seriously.


    "Why do you say that?"


    "In the eyes of the world, the reason why we came to the conclusion that [the ancient dragon is extinct] is because there has been no trace of the ancient dragon in the Seven Seas for many years."


    "But in fact, this does not mean that all ancient dragons have died out."


    Jian analyzed it layer by layer.


    "Just like Federal Chief Wayne Moriarty, although he has not appeared in the Federation for a long time, few people think that he is really dead."


    Xia En has a different view on this: "But if there is no longer an ancient dragon in the Seven Seas, wouldn''t it be no different from extinction?"


    "You should take a longer view."


    Jane said: "In addition to the world where Qihai is located, there are many [secret realms] in the [Secret Sea]."


    "After years of federal investigation, it has been confirmed that there is a [secret realm] where a large number of ancient dragons live."


    "The shapes and bloodlines of those ancient dragons are the same as those of the ancient dragons in the Seven Seas, and they are even more powerful."


    "The entire population is extremely large and can be called prosperous."


    "That [Secret Realm] was named [Dragon''s Nest] by us!"


    Hearing this, Xia En''s eyes changed slightly and he murmured: "[Dragon''s Nest Secret Realm]?"


    Jane''s words were like waking up someone from a dream, causing Xia En''s thoughts to broaden instantly, and he thought of places he had never thought of before.


    "What you mean is that the ancient dragons on the Seven Seas are actually not extinct at all."


    "Just before a certain disaster struck, they all moved to the [Dragon''s Nest Secret Realm]?"


    Jane nodded: "Yes, that''s what I mean."


    Yes, since the dwarf tribe back then could migrate to the [Forge Secret Realm].


    So why can''t the more powerful ancient dragon clan go to other [secret realms] to survive?


    Xia En''s mind suddenly became enlightened.


    Some of the doubts from the past disappeared like fog.


    And soon, he thought of a possibility.


    Since dwarves and ancient dragons are like this, what about... the elves?
