Chapter 645: My Parents’ Whereabouts (3)

He decided to make a trip back to the Star City Academy.

When he walked out of the Tiger Soul Research Institute, it was brightly lit outside. He realized that it was snowing.

The air he spat out turned into white fog and dissipated under the low temperature.

Looking at the snow-covered scene in front of him, a hint of nostalgia struck him.

He recalled the previous timeline where Fog stood at the top of the Tiger Soul Research Institute’s headquarters and said something to him.

Now that he thought about it, he could empathize with it.

It said that hope in times of crisis was the source of power that was unafraid of all adversities.

The Great Event made many races start to think about the meaning of life and whether they should go against the heavens.

After understanding the logic behind it, the next step was to choose.

If they chose to live, they could only step onto the path of killing and fight for a chance of survival against the myriad races. In the future, they would be enemies.

The myriad races crossing a narrow bridge were destined to undergo a brutal and arduous process.

After making a choice, one had to be mentally prepared. There might be a price to pay in advance.

Even if the humans did not want to participate, they had no choice.

Everyone wanted to live, but if they wanted to live, they had to kill and plunder.

The second choice was to take advantage of the situation until the Great Event arrived and become the dust of history.

However, when one made this choice, one was destined to become a stepping stone on the path of the other races.

“You try going with the flow, but the others try to survive.”

“Snatch the resources and kill your clansmen. They are just trying to live and your actions have nothing to do with them!”

“Between the two choices, I chose the former.”

“My desire for strength is very low. You know that I never like to use strength to fight enemies.”

“I yearn for the peak only because there is true freedom there. No external force can determine the future of me and my clansmen.”

“Sometimes, using strength was one thing, but possessing it was another.”

“Only by possessing it would one have the right to choose and negotiate.”

“Without it, you don’t have a choice.”

“When you have something you’re determined to protect, your mind changes, and your behavior changes.”

“Ah Qi, if what you want to protect is greater than your dream, that is your new dream.”

Slapping the snow off his shoulders, a smile appeared on Feng Qi’s face.

Fog’s words seemed to have more meaning now.

His dream was to join the Milky Way Research Institute and become a technique researcher.

But now, when protecting meant more than dreams, it became a new dream.

Moreover, this was not his dream alone. He also had the dreams of countless companions.

Fog’s thoughts from its point of view were inexplicably compatible with his thoughts from a human’s point of view. The only difference was that they stood on different sides.

However, it was all for their race and the future.

From the looks of it, Fog was like a philosopher.

In particular, it liked reading human history books and mythological books.

However, one thing stood out as particularly problematic.

As it perused through it, it enjoyed making comments on human history and myths, expressing disdain for the storyline of a particular history and myth.

For instance, it once remarked that if there were truly immortals in human history capable of moving mountains and filling seas with a wave of their hands, then the initiative to invade the human world would not be in our possession.

There was a high chance that as soon as they arrived in the human world, they would be dragged by the immortals to the steelworks or to other places that needed labor to work. In short, they would be enslaved by humans.

He could not help but roll his eyes when he heard these words.

When it came to ridicule, Fog was born with a cold sense of humor. Its words were always shocking.

Thinking of the past, he walked towards the entrance of the Tiger Soul Research Institute.

Next, he planned to return to the Star City Academy and arrange his plans. This step was also a key step in the advancement of the combat timeline.

He walked along the snow-covered path, leaving a trail of footprints behind him. At this moment, he looked up at the night sky and suddenly thought of something Wei Wei had said.

“When you’re lost, raise your head. Perhaps a star in the night sky will show you the way.”

The underlying meaning of this sentence was that one of the stars in history would show him the way.

At that time, he had asked, “What if there are no stars?”

Wei Wei couldn’t help but roll her eyes when she heard this. Then, she replied.

“Then, you become that star. It’s time for you to learn to shine and light up the path ahead.”

Shaking off the snow on his clothes, Feng Qi walked further and further away in the snow.

The past surged in his mind, and a smile appeared on his lips.

In the new year, it was time to continue working hard..
