Genius Club-Chapter 647 - 32: Two Girls, The Truth Revealed (Extra for monthly votes!)_4

Then he looked up again:

"So, even though the time-space assassin can disregard the Space-time Law, which is extremely unreasonable and abnormal, there must be a reason, right? There must be some special reason that allows her to gain this ability... Do you have any clues?"

"No."

Tonight, Yu Xi had shaken her head countless times, and even Lin Xian had grown a little tired of watching her small ponytail sway:

"Lin Xian, don’t worry about how she manages to ignore the Space-time Law, but you need to understand, I am still bound by the Space-time Law. If you really want to find out the reason why the time-space assassin transcends the Space-time Law... I’m afraid I can’t be of much help. All of this requires you to research, explore, and find the answer on your own."

...

Lin Xian listened to Yu Xi’s familiar tone and suddenly felt a bit nostalgic.

Isn’t this what Huang Que used to say all the time?

He didn’t expect that after the big riddler left, a small one would come.

A big Huang Que left, and a small Yu Xi arrived.

Actually, what puzzled Lin Xian the most...

Was not just the point that the time-space assassin igrored the Space-time Law.

But rather.

[Why! Why would Forced Evasion happen to me?]

This was truly inconceivable... utterly beyond comprehension, so much so that when he watched that invincible, flawless time-space assassin approaching him, he truly felt a bit of despair.

How was he supposed to fight this battle?

The opponent not only had fierce attacking power, unrestrained by the Space-time Law, but was also immune to all his attacks; shooting her made himself stiff and paralyzed instead.

Even hacks in online games weren’t as mighty as her.

This time-space assassin was simply full offense, full defense, and even came with a paralyzing aura... she could only be described as invincible.

Seeing that Lin Xian had been silent for a long time.

Yu Xi turned back in concern, glanced at him, and then comforted him:

"Don’t be too discouraged... We can slowly figure out a way. Rest assured, my mission is to protect you. I will protect you with my life. If that time-space assassin wants to kill you, she’ll have to step over my dead body."

"And as you saw just now, although we can’t initiate attacks on the time-space assassin, as a fellow Space-Time Traveler I can, right? I can ram her with a motorcycle, shoot her with a handgun, or even burn her with fire..."

"So you don’t have to worry, Lin Xian. The time-space assassin might be terrifying for you, but in my view, she’s not unbeatable. There’s not much difference in combat strength between the two of us. We’re both Space-Time Travelers, having undergone enhancements through drugs and genetic editing in our respective eras. Our strength and combat capabilities are similarly matched."

Listening to Yu Xi’s heartwarming words.

Lin Xian nodded.

He wasn’t discouraged, nor had he lost the will to fight as Yu Xi had thought.

After everything he had been through.

Would he be defeated by something like this?

He just felt...

There must be something strange here,

Something he had overlooked,

Some detail he had yet to notice—

[For every effect, there must be a cause; for every cause, there must be an effect.]

The time-space assassin couldn’t possibly be immune to the Space-time Law without reason; there had to be some trick, some maneuver, some secret...

As long as he figured out the reason why she wasn’t affected by the Space-time Law.

Perhaps, he would be able to find a method to counter her.

And then.

Defeat her!

For some reason...

Lin Xian recalled the words Gao Yang had shouted at Ji Lin’s birthday party—

"Our greatest honor is not in never falling, but in having the courage to rise after falling countless times!"

Because he was so shocked at the time, Lin Xian still has a clear memory of this sentence.

Gao Yang said it was a famous saying by the 18th-century English writer Oliver Goldsmith.

I don’t know whether this piece of trivia is true or false.

But at least, the saying makes a lot of sense.

Indeed.

What is there to fear from failure?

Lin Xian had experienced failures countless times from his childhood up until now since he discovered the truth about dreams.

Countless people around him had told him,

Failure isn’t something to be afraid of.

What’s scary is losing the courage to stand up again.

Just like now.

The enemy is very powerful.

But Lin Xian believes there’s absolutely nothing so powerful that it can’t be overcome!

"I’ll find a way to figure out the reason."

Lin Xian patted the young girl Yu Xi’s shoulder:

"So where are we going now?"

Ding-ling-ling ding-ling-ling ding-ling-ling ding-ling-ling————

Just as Lin Xian finished speaking,

the phone rang.

He looked at it and saw that it was a call from Angelica.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.

He pressed the answer button:

"Hello?" Find more to read at novelbuddy

"Hehe, the female secretary has fallen asleep."

On the other end of the phone, Angelica seemed to be smoking after the event, as Lin Xian could hear the sound of a lighter.

"You’re really impressive."

Lin Xian exclaimed:

"To be honest, I’m really envious of your situation right now, it’s like heaven and earth apart... How about it, did you get anything?"

"Of course."

Angelica chuckled over the phone:

"When have I ever failed?"

"Tell me, Lin Xian, which do you want to hear first? Is it about the Lolita complex... or about Artificial Intelligence?"

Lin Xian narrowed his eyes:

"Tell me about the Lolita complex."

Angelica laughed softly and said slowly:

"The female secretary complained to me that her boss, Jask, had hidden a teenage girl... a girl with an Oriental face, inside the iron tower for several months."

"She was very worried that this incident would ruin Jask, even leading to imprisonment. Because you might not be aware, Lin Xian, in places like Mi Country... if such things are exposed and verified, it could be the end of Jask’s life."

Lin Xian switched the phone to his other hand and shifted his position on the motorcycle seat:

"That teenage girl, does she have any distinctive features?"

"The secretary said that the girl is incredibly beautiful, as if she’s come right out of a comic book, with a face finely sculpted like an art piece."

"Besides being beautiful, the secretary also mentioned that the girl has neck-length hair, black short hair, and looks very cold, silent and reserved. Ah, there’s one more thing, the most unforgettable detail for the secretary was..."

Angelica exhaled a plume of smoke, and said in a soft voice:

"The girl’s eyes, they were blue. And... frighteningly bright."
