Videogame: I Began With Top-tier Luck Novel - Chapter 149
149 Another Person
After Zhang Zizai finished speaking, the old Celestial Master’s mind seemed to have been struck by a bolt from the blue. All the fog dissipated like smoke. The last piece of the puzzle also surfaced. Zhang Zizai didn’t know what the other party meant. It wasn’t because he was stupid, but because he didn’t want to think about it carefully.
Their guild master had actually already told him the answer. Thinking of the answer that appeared in his mind, although the old Celestial Master was unwilling to believe that it was true, the truth was right in front of him. He had no choice but to believe it.
Then, under Zhang Zizai’s surprised gaze, he took out a cracked jade plate and placed it on the ground. His hand quickly floated in the air. After pointing at it a few times, a milky white protective shield expanded from the jade plate and completely enveloped him and Zhang Zizai.
Then, under Zhang Zizai’s dumbfounded gaze, he told him his guess with a serious expression. “Zizai, the usage of this jade plate is limited. Listen to me now. After I finish speaking, there’s still time for you to ask about other things.
!!
“I know why your guild master trusted you so much after not seeing you once. According to everything you’ve said, your guild master should be a reborn person.”
Zhang Zizai was dumbfounded by the old Celestial Master’s words. He even suspected that he had dementia.
Looking at Zhang Zizai’s eyes, the old Celestial Master knew that he didn’t believe him, but the truth was right in front of him, so he couldn’t help but believe it. “Zizai, I know all of this is unbelievable, but according to the conversation between them and their attitude towards you, this answer is the only answer that can explain everything.
“Didn’t his teammate ask him what you did, but he didn’t answer specifically. Instead, he made a ‘boom’ movement and mouthed something? I don’t mean an explosion. I mean that in the future, you will perish together with the factions that want to harm the human race. This is the only way to explain why they looked at you like that and would say that you could never betray the human race.”
Hearing the old Celestial Master’s explanation, Zhang Zizai’s face was filled with shock. Then, he prepared to ask something. However, the old Celestial Master reached out and stopped him. “Listen to me first. When I’m done, you can ask the questions in your heart. According to their conversation, in the near future, foreign races or factions will invade the human race.
“Moreover, when the human race faced those foreign races or our forces, they fell into an extremely tragic position and were at the risk of being wiped out.
“And your guild master, for some reason, he returned to the present and knew what would happen in the future. He began to plan to increase the strength of the human race and resist that outsider.
“Right now, his guild is the selection office for the future army that will resist outsiders. According to the name of their guild, outsiders should call themselves gods, or races with the word ‘God’ in its forces.
“Moreover, from the conversation between them, it can be seen that only he and the members of his team know the secret of his rebirth. That’s why he said that the five of them carry the fate of the entire human race.”
At this point, the old Celestial Master told Zhang Zizai all his guesses. At the same time, he indicated that Zhang Zizai could ask him questions. “Master, how is all this possible? Our guild master is actually a reborn person. This is too unbelievable.”
Facing Zhang Zizai’s doubts, the old Celestial Master said with a serious expression. “Zizai, I know this is very unbelievable, but this is the only way to explain everything they did. I know that with your intelligence, you had actually already guessed this answer when you heard their conversation. It’s just that you find it unbelievable and don’t know what to do, so you came to me to resolve your doubts, right?”
Under the old Celestial Master’s gentle tone, Zhang Zizai’s expression changed several times before he nodded gently. “Master, you’re right. Actually, when I heard their conversation, I already had a guess like you. It’s just that you know my personality. When I encounter major problems, my first reaction is to run away and not participate.
“If it’s anything else, I won’t feel any guilt or depression if I don’t participate. But if it’s really as we think, then this matter will affect the fate of the entire human race. If I continue to pretend to be confused and ignore it, I can’t imagine the outcome.
“But I’m really confused about carrying the fate of the entire human race. I’m afraid that I won’t do it well and cause trouble for them, causing an accident to happen to the entire plan.
“At that time, because of me, the entire human race will fall into endless hell. Then I won’t be satisfied even if I die. That’s why I came to you to clarify my doubts and ask you how I should choose.”
The old Celestial Master looked at the conflicted Zhang Zizai with a serious expression. “Zizai, do you remember what the first and only rule was after you became my disciple on the first day you entered the sect?”
As if infected by the old Celestial Master’s dignified appearance, Zhang Zizai also looked serious, his eyes revealing an extremely determined gaze. “To learn skills, you have to learn how to be a human first. As a Daoist, you will never forget your original intention and know your own virtues and actions. You will never do anything that is against reason or nature and is not beneficial to others.
“Those who disobey will die from the five lightning strikes and fall into hell forever. They will suffer the pain of hell forever for the victims.”
Seeing that Zhang Zizai had not forgotten his teachings, the old Celestial Master’s serious expression improved a little. “Zizai, I know what you’re worried about, but that’s no reason for you not to go. From the conversation between them, it’s not difficult to tell that they don’t have the confidence to defeat the outsiders who will invade the human race in the near future.
“In fact, some of them have long sworn that if they are no match for outsiders, they will drag them down with them at the last moment.
“So Zizai, don’t be afraid that you won’t be able to do it well. You just have to be like them and be prepared to die with the outsiders if you fail. Be prepared to sacrifice yourself at the last critical moment and repel the outsiders or drag the other party’s experts down with you.
“Only in this way can you be worthy of my nurturing and the human blood flowing in your body, my good disciple.”
Under the advice of the old Celestial Master, Zhang Zizai’s eyes gradually became firm, and he had an answer in his heart.
