Chapter 1426 The Truth

Above the ruins, the heroes waited quietly, their hearts filled with apprehension.

No one expected that what would break the silence wasn't the two engaged in battle, but...

*Chi*—

Suddenly, a strange sound arose, and along with it, a green sphere of light with a diameter of about two meters abruptly appeared before everyone's eyes.

Immediately afterward, a figure walked out from the light.

"What's the situation?" The Eternal Doctor asked the Foil Paper Hero and the others as soon as he steadied himself.

"You old fox..." Instead of answering the question, the Foil Paper Hero said in a teasing tone, "What are you doing here now?"

"I'm already here as fast as I could, okay?" The Eternal Doctor retorted, "As soon as that mirror image was destroyed, I started preparing the teleportation spell. But after all, this is interstellar teleportation, so the difficulty and time consumption are unavoidable."

"What he means is... you actually didn't need to come," the Toad Hero interjected. "Your action of sending a substitute while hiding it from everyone earlier actually became the key to reversing the situation. However, the current situation is still unclear, and we may still be completely wiped out by Doctor Dian; once the situation develops to that point, then... you, whose 'ability has not yet been copied,' may become the last hope of the entire universe, so it's better for you to stay in the base..."

"Hey~ I'm already here." The Eternal Doctor spread his hands and said, "I can't possibly go back, right?" He paused and looked around, "Besides... what exactly happened during this time? Where's Doctor Dian?"

As soon as he said that, he sensed the surge of some kind of power, which immediately changed his expression.

"Hmm? That is..." As he spoke, the Eternal Doctor suddenly lowered his head, staring intently at his feet, not knowing what he was looking at.

"You can sense it, can't you?" The Foil Paper Hero asked, "...Their life energy."

The Eternal Doctor thought for two seconds before replying, "No... the power contained in the two 'beings' below has already surpassed that level of energy... I can't describe what I'm seeing right now..."

At this moment, the Black Hole Queen actually interjected, "This is the 'ultra-dimensional power' in its liberated state. Of course... those lifeforms that can only observe things on a physical level still can't detect that kind of energy."

"Hmph..." Hearing this, the Toad Hero snorted coldly and turned to look at the Black Hole Queen. "So... you usually suppress your power to hide it from the Eternal Doctor?"

"That's right." The Black Hole Queen replied bluntly, "At the same time, it's also to hinder your surveillance and research on me."

"Tch..." The Toad Hero continued, "So, I was discovered after all..."

"Alright, Enwei..." The Foil Paper Hero patted the Toad Hero's shoulder. "Everyone knows very well about your monitoring and guarding against your companions."

"Hey hey... I don't know." Captain Sh*t Star had almost recovered by now, at least he could talk normally.

"Hey! Everyone!" Just as the three of them were getting further and further off topic, the Eternal Doctor suddenly shouted, "There's something happening underground... something is changing..."

His words came a little late.

In that instant, a beam of scarlet light had already burst out of the ground and soared into the sky.

Wherever the beam of light passed, the void was shattered, and nothing remained...

Neither the Toad Hero's electronic equipment nor the Eternal Doctor's magic power could identify the nature of this energy.

But they could all realize the same thing—this move was more than enough to kill Doctor Dian.

…………

Several minutes passed after the beam of light stopped.

Then, a bald head emerged from the ground.

"How is it? Poker Hero." Captain Sh*t Star asked as soon as he saw Jue Ge.

"Of course I won." Feng Bujue replied, "Otherwise, you guys would be facing a guy who would *biubiubiu* you without saying a word right now."

"So... what should we do next?" Captain Sh*t Star muttered thoughtfully, and instinctively turned his gaze to the Black Hole Queen.

"Let me talk to Feng Bujue alone first." The Black Hole Queen no longer called Jue Ge "Poker Hero," but called him by his name directly, "You guys wait a moment."

"Heh... we can only wait." The Foil Paper Hero immediately said with a wry smile.

He now had no spaceship and no battle armor, so he couldn't go far; and the two heroes beside him were injured and couldn't move freely; and the remaining Eternal Doctor... even if he could "perform magic" to take everyone away, it would take some time to prepare.

Moreover... although Doctor Dian was dead, the mess he left behind was still there, and this "anarchic state" Explosion Star was still waiting for them to save it.

…………

"The attack you just used proves that you have touched the realm where the 'truth' lies." After calling Feng Bujue to the side, the Black Hole Queen didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

"Regarding this matter... I have to thank you." Feng Bujue said, raising his hand to touch his bald head, "I couldn't use this state so 'freely' before."

"Since you're aware of this," the Black Hole Queen continued, "then... I hope you can repay me by 'never returning to this universe.'"

"Heh..." Feng Bujue smiled, "Understood... understood."

"Very well, I also thank you for understanding my position," the Black Hole Queen said.

"However, I can't just leave." After two seconds, Feng Bujue added, "I want to take the body of Ben Bu back to its original era, at least... to give him a proper burial."

"Alright, I'll send you back," the Black Hole Queen replied.

Feng Bujue nodded, then tilted his head and looked at the four heroes in the distance: "Do I need to say goodbye to them?"

"No need," the Black Hole Queen said, "I'm going to adjust their memories in a moment anyway."

"I see..." Jue Ge muttered, "No wonder they don't recognize me in the future... and no one remembers the identity of the 'strongest hero', they only know that there was once a bald head who 'sacrificed' after leaving behind a legendary story."

"That's exactly it," the Black Hole Queen said, "So, if you want to say goodbye, go say goodbye to them in the future."

"By the way..." Feng Bujue added, "What should be done with Bailais Dian? He should still be alive, right?"

"Don't worry..." the Black Hole Queen said, "Long before we came to this planet, Doctor Dian had already hidden that 'past self' in a safe place and frozen him, and implanted the memory of the moment before his time travel." She paused, "In the next fifty years, I will take the time to modify his body, and when the timeline progresses to the connection point of the 'ring', I will use my ability to send him back."

"Ah... it seems... everything is within your calculations..." Feng Bujue muttered.

"I never calculate," the Black Hole Queen said, "My mission is to observe, correct, and maintain the stability of the universe, these things... cannot be accomplished by calculation."

"Okay okay..." Feng Bujue no longer discussed this issue with her in depth, "Someone like me who has to rely on calculations to survive should go back to my own universe to play..."
