Chapter 540 Pluto Lear
Chen Ke came out of the Dream Center. At this time, his companions sitting around the table looked at him as if he had gone on a long journey.
He asked Lucina for some books, but he didn't see what they were. He threw them to Slavin behind the door, and then called Diana to go out. These books should be enough for Slavin to survive for a while.
In the past, the postman had everything he wanted. Once the robbery was arranged, Pihom could get everything he needed with just one phone call, but now Chen Ke had to do it himself. Even the car he had left was the old black car that didn't even fly over the broken bridge.
Diana fastened her seat belt, Chen Ke started the car, and Lucina stood at the door to see them off.
"We only have this one car left, you know that, right?" Lucina hugged her chest and leaned against the porch.
"Don't worry, we won't blow it up." Chen Ke said, stepped on the accelerator, and the exhaust pipe of the car was like a fart. With a bang, the car body rose and ran forward.
The place Diana was talking about was near the biscuit factory in the Iron Rolling Zone, where Chen Ke rescued Lucina from Asra for the first time.
The factory that provided grenade equipment for P.W.A.T was not very big, and it could not even be called a factory. It was just a small yard surrounded by a gray concrete wall. A pile of reddish-brown iron boxes were piled in the yard, and the two-story mobile building was the tallest building in the yard.
The United Federation is a developed capitalist country. The factories here do not seem to like to do specific production work. Rather than saying that this is a factory, it is better to say that it is a small yard for stacking goods. They are only responsible for technology research and development, and the assembly work is outsourced to third world countries.
They parked the car on the side of the road. The street was quiet and there was no one. But then again, who would go out for a walk in the middle of the night?
Chen Ke's eyes emitted a blue light. He glanced at the situation in the yard and saw only the outlines of three people, two of whom were slumped and seemed to be asleep.
"I thought there would be two armed guards at the door of such a place." Chen Ke looked at Diana.
"You think too much. No one wants to rob the Administration except us." Diana said.
"It looks like it will be easy tonight." Chen Ke said.
"Well, so I just watch you go in, or should I go in with you?" Diana asked.
"You tell me where the things are, and I'll go in by myself. It's easier for two people to be discovered." Chen Ke said.
"Okay, I'll help you watch the car and make sure there are no drunks peeing next to the car door at midnight." Diana smiled.
"Well..." Chen Kela opened the door handle, and his feet just landed on the ground and retracted.
"What's wrong?" Diana asked when she saw Chen Ke sitting back in the car.
"I've always wanted to ask you... Maybe you don't know, but I still have some... doubts." Chen Ke looked at Diana.
"About what? I don't think there should be any secrets about me that you don't know." Diana said.
"Last time you had a nosebleed... You said you saw yourself surrounded by a fire storm, and then... there was a green figure... Do you remember?" Chen Ke asked.
"Well, you are talking about this? What's wrong?" Diana was stunned.
"Do you remember more details? For example, what he was wearing, whether he had something in his hand, and whether he said anything to you?" Chen Ke asked.
"Let me think about it, I can't think of it... It was like a dream at that moment, and I can't tell you more details." Diana said.
"Oh, really..." Chen Ke lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
That green... figure, translucent, was like a spirit, but Chen Ke thought he was definitely not a ghost. The green spirit should be just a certain state of him, and he was able to enter the sea of fire in this way.
"I only remember that he told me that his name was Lear. I don't know who this person is. According to your theory, maybe we will meet him in the future?" Diana asked.
"Lear... Lear." Chen Ke suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind.
Lear! Pluto Lear? !
He suddenly remembered where he had heard this name. When Chen Ke entered the Vanhede Great Void for the second time, he completed the cycle of the great moment. At the bonfire under the castle, the old king Vanhede mentioned this name to him.
That was a companion that Van Hede had traveled with when he was young. Compared to that time, Van Hede and Angele were a very suitable couple, right? And what role did the guy called Hades play?
But no matter what, the era in which Van Hede lived has become a fragment of history. Even if he established his own country and married Angele as the queen, he could not escape the fate of being destroyed by the Sun Cult and the Black Ring Cult.
When Van Hede was trapped in the siege, where was Lear at that time? He would not let his old friend die without saving him, right? Or was Lear already dead when Van Hede became an aging king?
Moreover, why was he called Hades Lear? This nickname is not auspicious.
"We can ask him in person later what is going on." Diana smiled.
"Impossible, he is already dead." Chen Ke shook his head.
"Ah?" Diana was surprised.
"The Administration should know more about the Great Void than I do. You should know... The Great Void is a fragment of the past era, right?" Chen Ke said.
"There are many theories. The institute believes that it is a parallel time and space, but the caliber to the outside world has always been some kind of crack. Ordinary people will die if they breathe it in. This theory is very useful. At least it can ensure that the public will not be curious about and explore the Great Void." Diana explained.
"I don't know if the Great Void is a parallel universe, but they should be a period of time that did exist. It is not accurate to say so. It should be said that it is a cycle of a certain event in a certain era." Chen Ke said.
"I don't quite understand. Maybe you should discuss this with Wang Ailin... Wang Ailin..." Diana's face sank when she mentioned Wang Ailin.
"We will find a way to bring her back, I promise." Chen Ke said.
"Of course, I believe you will. I hope that when she sees me next time, she will not look at me with the eyes of treating excellent research materials." Diana shook her head.
"Speaking of Lear, I think I should tell you something about him, because there is a paradox..." Chen Ke said.
"Paradox?" Diana was puzzled.
"Time is flowing. What you see is your future, not the past, but Lear is a person from the past who has passed away..." Chen Ke said.
"Who is Lear? Do you know him?" Diana asked.
"I once went into a great void. In fact, it was the one in the Xijin Building... I was in that building on the day it exploded... I went in, and inside was a kingdom called Vanhede." Chen Ke said.
"The Great Void... that is the source of the monsters in our world. Tell me, Chen Ke, how could there be people in it?" Diana said.
"No one is in it, or rather, it was once inhabited, a place where many people lived, but that era has ended. Someone did something big, causing this period of history to become something like a classic movie clip or a collection of the top ten goals in the World Cup... constantly playing in a loop." Chen Ke said.
"Is this... the Great Void?" Diana asked.
"Yes, your power, the inheritance of the Fire Witch, is what I got from it. It originally belonged to a queen named Angele, and her partner was an old king named Vanhede. The point is that when the old king was young, he was a companion of Lear." Chen Ke explained.
"When I was young...wait a minute...I need to digest this part...it keeps repeating, Van Hede, my companions when I was young...wait...then why do I see a dead person in the future?" Diana was puzzled.
"I don't know either. Maybe you are different from us. What you see is...some kind of illusion?" Chen Ke couldn't explain it either.
Or, is this Lear also a person who traveled through time?
"Why did you choose to tell me this tonight?" Diana asked suddenly.
"Before I went out, I went into the apartment again and looked at your future to ensure that the robbery plan would be foolproof." Chen Ke said.
"And you saw what I saw?" Diana asked.
"Maybe it's another version, but the content should be similar." Chen Ke shrugged.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Go get the grenade, go quickly." Diana shook her head, pushed Chen Ke back, and drove him out of the car.
