BXBX NOVEL Chapter 361
First, there weren\'t many night attacks.
Secondly, these monsters were said to have been laid off from Black Demons but Leon couldn\'t find any connection and wondered why there no Black Demons.
Just then, Leon remembered another thing. He hadn\'t studied their data properly or those blurry lines above because he was busy and hadn\'t given them much importance but he oversaw the data.
Name:Spitter Crawlers slime
Age:2 months 13 days.
Cultivation: Pre-evolve Level 0.5
Leon\'s heart chilled reading it.
The age startled him but more than that, the world pre-evolved.
"Just what the fuck is this?"
Going insane, he even asked Mac and Cameron for help but they didn\'t know anything so he looked for the General of the base but god knows where this general was.
From the moment he arrived to today, still he hadn\'t heard anything about the general.Each Sector was governed by a General whose realm was beyond Martial Saint and needed to be stationed there, in case of any trouble but he heard that the general had left a few days before they arrived.
So, all he could do was grumble since the system wasn\'t saying anything.
According to it, this was knowledge of the term of the next stage and not of the current so it wasn\'t required.
Leon felt his mind bursting all around with suspense. It may not look like but he had been paying attention to several details and found many weird things.
First, he hadn\'t spotted a villain.
Next, there was ascension, sub-dimension, Black demons, and now this pre-evolved.
That night, Leon decided to patrol the borders alone, seizing the perfect opportunity to sneak out.
As darkness fell, Leon stepped out of his room, to make his way to the border under the shroud of night. The cold air brushed against his face, and the moon hung low, casting a pale glow over the desolate landscape.
Suddenly, a voice cut through the silence. "Are you going to do something dangerous again?"
Leon froze. He turned to see Irina standing by the entrance, her face illuminated by the moonlight. Her eyes, usually so warm, were now clouded with concern.
"I... Wait, why aren\'t you sleeping, Mother?" Leon asked, trying to mask his surprise.
Irina\'s eyes softened as she replied with a gentle smile, "I expected you might do something rash given how uneasy you\'ve been."
She motioned for him to sit beside her, and with a sigh and he complied, sitting down next to her with a pout.
The chill of the night seemed to heighten the gravity of the conversation.
Irina\'s gaze was intense while her voice steady but it was tinged with an edge of fear. "Sometimes I can\'t help but feel you worry too much. I am afraid that you might die if you keep going on like this."
Leon\'s expression faltered, the rare solemnity in Irina\'s voice hitting him harder than he expected. His eyes widened slightly, and he felt a pang of guilt.
"Mom, don\'t worry. I can\'t die," Leon reassured, though his words felt hollow even to him. Irina clicked her tongue in disapproval and narrowed her
"You\'re taking things too lightly," she chided. "You might return from the brink of death, but have you considered what\'s happening to the current timelines?"
"What?" Leon\'s jaw dropped with a mix of shock and confusion spreading across his face.
Irina\'s smirk grew. "Did you think I didn\'t know about your powers? Your grandma told me everything..\'
\'That old hag..\'
Leon\'s frustration was palpable. A vein bulged on his forehead, and he muttered under his breath, "That old hag is a fucking menace."
He attempted to force a smile, but Irina swiftly knocked his head with a karate chop with a sharp gaze.
"Stop acting. Your maniac smile can\'t fool me," she said, her tone firm but her eyes betraying a hint of tenderness.
She then caressed and ruffled Leon\'s hair.There was a m expression a mix of love and worry. "Leon, your elder is locked away, and we don\'t know how she\'s doing. It\'s been so long since she disappeared, and I\'m starting to feel restless. If you disappear suddenly, I... I..."
"Stop, Mom..." Leon interrupted gently. "I can\'t promise I won\'t disappear, but I\'m not going far. With my shadows, no matter where we are... we\'ll always be connected."
The words somehow had a comforting effect.Sharing the connections with her son, for some reason it felt beautiful.
Irina\'s eyes softened, and she rested her head on his shoulder.
The cold night air seemed to encase them in a cocoon of stillness, highlighting the gravity of their bond. "Leon, just because you have extra lives doesn\'t mean you can squander it. You can return to the past, but what about the present timelines? Have you wondered how we would feel?"
Leon remained silent, his lips pressed into a thin line. He had wrestled with this very question before, but the answer eluded him, leaving him with a gnawing sense of unresolved tension. The night deepened around them, the moon casting long shadows that seemed to echo Leon\'s inner turmoil.
"It won\'t be easy to kill me now like before," Leon said with his eyes flashing with a sinister light. "The difference between the current me and the past me is like heaven and hell."
Irina looked up at him, her eyes reflecting both worry and hope, as the night air grew colder and the moonlight bathed them in a ghostly glow.
...….
A few hours later…. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
Leon stood before the shimmering green and blue lines that extended skyward. The sheer intensity of energy radiating from those lines was astonishing.
A few miles away from the walls, there was a border of trailed glowing wires.At day it would be just normal wired lines but at night a high intensity of energy would pass through.
Standing before it, Leon turned back to take a look at the wall and a sigh escaped from his lips.
"Haa!Now that I am here, I feel I should have informed Gwen lest she would really make a scene."
...…..
If you like tech and business themed books, I hope you can take a look at my second \'The Tycoon Odyssey.\'
There is a cameo of Leon in chapter 87 and some things of Leon\'s past would be connected with that book.
