Chapter 585 Happy to Be a Father

Chen Ke and his team stayed in the Dream Center for the equivalent of 60 days and nights.

Lucina's injury still did not improve, and no matter how long Diana slept, she always felt that she was not full.

Chen Ke knew why, because the Dream Center had no concept of time flow, and all states would not change, but would remain the same as when they first entered.

The Dream Center could not be used as a safe house, it could only be a temporary shelter and a transit point between regions. Staying here, the situation in the dream world would not progress, and the team's status could not be supplemented.

This reminded Chen Ke of Parker, Priskin, and Hall. Parker had slept in the Great Void, and Priskin and Hall had also rested here. Although they looked like they were asleep, they were actually just deceiving themselves...

In the past sixty days and nights, Diana had been in a state of exhaustion without knowing it. Her fire magic was much weaker than when she had just obtained the power of the witch. Chen Ke understood that unless she was brought to the dream world, Diana would never be able to recover her strength.

Lucina is the same. Although she doesn't need to eat or drink here and her wounds won't rot and worsen, as an ordinary person, the dull pain and long-term fatigue are not easy to bear.

Go to the City of Opportunity? No.

The out-of-control Shreli, the dangerous Oliveira, and the troubled Li Moyang are all problems. Time in the City of Opportunity is precious. He needs to keep the team ready to go at any time. Whether it is Oliveira's next attack or Li Moyang's sudden finding of Shreli, Chen Ke needs to respond immediately. They can't waste the time of the City of Opportunity to recuperate.

At the moment, Chen Ke knows that there is a place where he can buy some time for his companions...

That is Langdon in 1859.

Xu Jing told Chen Ke that changing history is a very complicated and dangerous thing. The universe will repair and smooth out the contradictions between the past and the future, but the process of change is best participated by people in the timeline. If people who transcend time rashly intervene, it will either lead to unwanted results or promote the birth of the world of death.

This is why Xu Jing and Lin Yayin wanted to interfere with the past, but were unwilling to do it themselves.

Chen Ke also told Parker and Lucina about this. If people from the past saw the creations of the 21st century, the direction of history would be uncertain. A 21st century pistol might inspire someone in the 19th century and make some inventions come out decades earlier.

Last time, Chen Ke killed another Chen Ke with a black gun in the suburbs of Langton City, where he left a rift-like gully on the ground. When Chen Ke returned to Opportunity City, the gully that did not exist originally became a famous attraction in Ingram in 2009...

In fact, the original Chen Ke did not have too many concerns about the impact of the past and the future like Xu Jing, but considering his current alliance with Li Moyang, he still had to act carefully. He did not want what he did more than 100 years ago to affect himself more than 100 years later. Until now, Chen Ke understood the feelings of the foundation.

But Langdon is the only place to buy time for his team. There are not many people who know Chen Ke there, and there is no so-called enemy hunting, government wanted, etc. Everyone can rest safely.

There are only two problems that are more troublesome, that is, money and house.

Since they went to Langdon, Lucina and Diana have all their physiological needs... needless to say, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping, bathing, changing clothes, wound bandaging, sanitary environment, diseases... all these need to be considered.

Li Moyang can still be found in the City of Opportunities, but now, he has agreed to track Shreli when he is busy with his own affairs, and Chen Ke is embarrassed to ask him again.

Fortunately, Chen Ke did not completely know anyone in 1859. He could go to Jacob to see. His children are very familiar with Langdon, and it should not be difficult to find a few places where strangers can hide.

Chen Ke called his friends together, and they gathered in Diana's apartment. Chen Ke told them his ideas.

"Unless it is absolutely necessary, you can't go out, you can't talk to others, and it's best not to contact anyone." Chen Ke said so.

"It sounds like imprisonment... I thought I could have some fun in 1859." Lucina shook her head.

"It's so boring to stay in the house. Langdon in 1859 was the center of the Industrial Revolution. I want to see Big Ben." Diana also said.

Parker didn't say much, he didn't seem to want to go there.

"I know this request is a bit unreasonable. To be honest, I am also confused about the impact of the past on the future. I don't know what the specific situation will be, so I can only reduce uncertainty as much as possible." Chen Ke spread his hands.

"If the green holy diamond is really in the hands of the woman you knew in 1859, it means that the thing should be in her hands, right? If you go to grab it, is it considered interfering with history?" Lucina asked at this time.

Parker and Diana also looked at Chen Ke at the same time.

Chen Ke scratched the back of his head and couldn't answer this question.

"You see, there's no solution to this problem. Our presence there was a form of interference. So I think no matter who it is, no matter what they say to you, their original intention was just to make you obey." Lucina said.

"Maybe you're right... Xu... That person might really be lying to me..." Chen Ke lowered his head, frowning, as if he was thinking about something.

"What are you analyzing randomly?" Lucina asked.

"Nothing... I think I should... leave. I'll go first, and I'll call you over when I've arranged everything." Chen Ke stood up. He thought it was better to confirm some things before explaining them to them.

Chen Ke took two steps at a time and returned to his apartment on the fourth floor. He moved a stool from the side and placed it against the wall. He stepped on it and opened the dial of the wall clock.

1859...

Chen Ke moved the hour hand on the dial and slowly turned it to 1985.

"Swish, swish, swish, swish..."

A strange sound came, as if something was clinging to the outside of the window.

Chen Ke turned his head and saw a huge blood-red cockroach lying outside the window. It was about the size of a 51-inch color TV. Its disgusting abdomen was facing Chen Ke, and its two antennae were swinging rhythmically.

What was even more terrible was that the two eyes of the cockroach were under its mouthparts, so it was staring at Chen Ke. Chen Ke was stunned. He didn't know where this thing came from, and the hand holding the hour hand of the wall clock also stopped.

At this time, the cockroach's mouthparts began to wriggle, as if it wanted to say something.

"What the hell..." Chen Ke's left hand appeared with a double-barreled spray gun.

After a few seconds, the cockroach actually made a sound similar to that of a child...

"Dad..."
