Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared-Chapter 1687: Don’t Waste

Everyone finally returned to the base after a lot of hardships. For some reason, ever since Gu Fan arrived, life has become more and more thrilling.

Along the way, Ning Qi kept making a fuss, protesting, swearing, but didn’t forcibly break free.

With Ning Qi’s strength, she certainly had the ability to escape. But she was afraid. Not only were there enemies all around, but experts like Gu Fan, the big boss, and Lin Yue were overseeing everything. Ning Qi couldn’t possibly defeat them, and attempting to escape might only result in losing her privileged treatment as a captive.

Ning Qi was locked in a cell, given some food and water as a formality, and then everyone continued to discuss how to reasonably assign Ning Qi to so many men in the resistance army.

Lu Yi initiated this topic, so naturally, Gu Fan had no interest in participating. Right now, Gu Fan’s mind was full of questions about what the Overlord and Ausa were actually planning.

He remembered that at the weapons base, they discovered a signal device made by the X Legion—what purpose does it serve?

Now, at the Demon Refining Island Base, they discovered another strange device underground—what could it be?

"My future self, what on earth are you planning to do?" In Gu Fan’s mind, the Overlord’s words kept echoing, "What you are experiencing now is what I experienced in the past."

Gu Fan began to sort out his thoughts. According to the Overlord, the Overlord had also witnessed Lin Xi being killed by his future self. After that, the Overlord would marry Su Hui and have a daughter named Gu Xiaojin, who is Lin Xi’s reincarnation.

It’s as if Gu Fan already knows that after Lin Xi’s death, she will be reborn as Gu Xiaojin. So, one day, when Gu Fan becomes the Overlord, will he still insist on traveling through time to the past and choose to kill Lin Xi? The Overlord clearly knows that killing Lin Xi results in the birth of Gu Xiaojin, which seems pointless.

Unless Gu Xiaojin’s birth has a special role and significance, otherwise, why would Gu Fan and the Overlord do such a thing?

The second point of confusion was when everyone first encountered the mysterious masked person in ancient times. At that time, the masked man wanted to seize the Stone of Prophecy from Lu Bei.

Gu Fan witnessed firsthand how Lu Bei swallowed the Stone of Prophecy to prevent it from being taken by the masked man.

So the question arises: once Gu Fan becomes the mysterious masked person, knowing the outcome of trying to seize the Stone of Prophecy, would he still go through the trouble of returning to ancient times to do something destined to fail?

Gu Fan found more and more parts that didn’t make sense. The mysterious masked man, knowing he wouldn’t succeed, still went ahead, as if leaving a clue.

The third point of confusion was the masked man sending people to seize the blue potion from Gu Fan, already knowing Gu Fan was destined to drink it. Why act like this?

It was due to Gu Fan drinking the blue potion that his immortality surpassed the big boss, making him invincible. Logically, the masked man shouldn’t be doing this, right?

The fourth point of confusion was the two consecutive attacks on the Demon Refining Island Base, which added key figures like the big boss, Zhuo Hang, and Lord Xiong to the resistance. They also discovered something underground at the base—this whole progression seemed like the Overlord leading Gu Fan by the nose.

The Overlord could have quickly ordered the X Legion to act against Gu Fan, but the order was repeatedly delayed.

Once Gu Fan became aware of certain matters, the Overlord issued the command, which seemed like he was actually helping Gu Fan.

Gu Fan knows himself best and would never engage in so many fruitless tasks. He speculated that the Overlord was probably constrained by some factors and could only secretly provide guidance.

However, Gu Fan couldn’t understand why, with the Overlord’s power today, he couldn’t just openly inform Gu Fan but had to go to such lengths?

Unless there exists someone the Overlord has to fear.

Upon reconsideration, Gu Fan realized the only possibility was Ausa, who was equal in status to the Overlord within the X Legion.

Wait a moment—Ausa is the last remnant of an ancient Super Civilization left in this world, the rest of whom went to some unknown place in the universe.

Hold on—what about the signal device at the weapons base that could transmit signals to the universe?

The device beneath the Demon Refining Island also seems to belong to the ancient Super Civilization?

And that experiment extracting the life force from the big boss and Lord Xiong—for whom is this life meant to be replenished?

The more Gu Fan thought about it, the more horrified he felt. He realized the only thing that could make the Overlord apprehensive was the Destiny Stone.

Everything Gu Fan did seemed to be driven by the Destiny Stone guiding him to fulfillment. With its aid, he overcame one challenge after another, yet simultaneously felt like he was sinking deeper.

In the past, Gu Fan always wondered what the Destiny Stone wanted him to do.

Now, considering the steps leading here, Gu Fan has evolved from a weakling to a strong figure, gradually uncovering the secrets of an ancient Super Civilization, eventually gaining absolute authority. Thus, the timing is just right.

"My goodness, can it be?" Gu Fan was stunned, sweating profusely. If things are truly as he imagines, then the problem is grave.

Although it’s just speculation, Gu Fan believes it’s highly likely.

So he immediately convened everyone, including Ning Qi. Friend or foe, all were gathered together.

Initially, everyone was bewildered. They had just returned, and Gu Fan was urgently calling them again. Moreover, given the importance of the meeting, Ning Qi, the enemy, should probably be excluded.

Lu Yi suddenly realized, "I get it, Gu Fan has decided to forcibly reform Ning Qi. We, the male comrades, are blessed. I wonder who’ll be first."

Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless. Such wild imagination!

Ning Qi’s face turned livid, wishing to tear Lu Yi’s doomsayer mouth to shreds.

Wait a moment, Lu Yi’s doomsayer mouth is infallible. Could it be... everyone looked at Ning Qi with strange eyes, a tinge of sympathy in their gaze.

Ning Qi silently gritted her teeth, determined that if Gu Fan truly forced her onto those nasty men, she would be ready for mutually assured destruction.

Seeing Ning Qi’s tense demeanor, clearly uncomfortable, Gu Xiaojin said calmly, "Don’t worry, I know my dad. Even if he doesn’t want you, he won’t make you do something like that."

Hearing this, everyone thought it made sense, though it was still hard for Ning Qi to digest.

Just then, Gu Fan walked in. Seeing everyone assembled, he said solemnly, "Alright, everyone listen up. What I am about to say concerns the safety of the whole world. The balance of life and death is in our hands."

"Is it that serious?" Everyone was in shock, their hearts pounding rapidly. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

When Lu Yi attempted to speak, he received warning looks from everyone. At a moment like this, he mustn’t add to the chaos.
