Chapter 530: 292 “The Main Paths of Fate” and “The Simulator’s Protective Mechanism?” (Subscribe Please)_1
A moment later, his expression returned to calm, as if he had accepted everything at that moment.
He looked deeply at Milton Cheney, who stood in front of him, as if seeing him for the first time.
Next, he waved his hand gently, and a phantasmal river, identical to the River of Fate summoned by Milton Cheney earlier, appeared out of thin air within Lan’s Rules Space.
Lan’s eyes were tightly closed, as if he was sensing something from within this River of Fate.
After a short while, his eyes opened and his brows slightly furrowed as he looked at Milton Cheney.
“Within the River of Fate lies your trajectory of destiny,” he said.
“However…”
At this point, Lan paused, his furrowed brows not relaxing, as if he had observed something strange.
Hearing this, Milton Cheney’s expression didn’t change at all, remaining very composed.
“You may speak directly,” Milton Cheney said.
Although Lan hadn’t made everything completely clear yet, these few words were enough for Milton Cheney to deduce something.
Firstly, the trajectory of destiny Lan had seen in the River of Fate was definitely different from his own; otherwise, Lan wouldn’t have been able to perceive the existence of Milton Cheney’s destiny trajectory.
It should be noted that even Milton Cheney himself hadn’t seen his destiny trajectory in the River of Fate just now.
If he couldn’t see his own, yet Lan could, there must be something unusual about it.
“Your destiny trajectory is very blurry in my observations, as if it’s completely obscured,” Lan said.
“Moreover, it seems that there isn’t only one main thread belonging to your destiny,” Lan added.
There was a clear tone of confusion in his voice, which Milton Cheney could discern.
Therefore, Milton Cheney could infer that this was also the first time Lan had observed such a situation.
“More than one main thread of destiny?” Milton Cheney asked, his tone partly inquiring of Lan, and partly of himself.
At this point, he was no longer the ignorant person he used to be.
Be it the River of Fate or the trajectory of destiny, Milton Cheney had considerable understanding of them.
“That’s right, this is the first time I’ve encountered this situation. How can you, a single person, possess multiple main threads of destiny?” Lan said.
At the moment, Lan was too preoccupied to wonder how Milton Cheney had managed to become a Level 5 Wizard and had found him to observe the destiny trajectory.
The destiny trajectory of Milton Cheney that he had observed was indeed something he had never encountered before.
Hearing Lan’s words, Milton Cheney nodded slightly.
He didn’t continue to speak proactively but appeared contemplative, as if pondering some questions.
The main thread of destiny is actually just another concept for a destiny trajectory.
Or, it’s another name for it.
In the Wizard Realm, as long as a person is alive, they inevitably become entangled with the destiny of the Wizard Realm.
It’s just that these entanglements vary in significance.
Different people naturally have different destiny trajectories.
However, in the eyes of a Level 5 Wizard, these destiny trajectories can all be observed within the River of Fate.
It’s just a matter of how deeply they can be observed.
In the Wizard Realm, different people with different destiny trajectories all have one main thread of destiny.
This is something Milton Cheney is very clear about.
Or rather, he had already encountered this knowledge when he was a Level 4 Wizard.
So Milton Cheney understood very well that, in Lan’s observations, he was definitely not normal.
Although Lan could see his destiny trajectory, it seemed that what he saw was not a normal destiny trajectory.
After all, normally, Lan would only be able to observe one destiny trajectory of Milton Cheney in the River of Fate.
Milton Cheney had not ruled out the possibility that Lan might be lying, but according to his judgment and insight, he could tell that Lan’s words were not false.
This meant that Lan had indeed observed multiple main threads of Milton Cheney’s destiny in the River of Fate.
“Why would this situation arise?” Milton Cheney’s face wore a contemplative expression as he mused to himself.
He couldn’t observe his own destiny trajectory, yet Lan was able to observe it in the River of Fate.
And what’s more, there were several main threads of destiny to observe.
In the Wizard Realm, no matter who it is, Ordinary Person or Wizard,
they all must have only one main thread of their destiny trajectory, which is an inevitable rule of the River of Fate.
However, while a person’s destiny trajectory has only one main thread, there may be countless branches.
Yet, in Lan’s observation, Milton Cheney’s destiny had several main threads.
It could be said that in Lan’s observation, Milton Cheney had broken the fundamental Rules of destiny in the Wizard Realm.
One can imagine what Lan must be feeling at this moment.
It was certainly not just confusion alone.
This was why Lan was puzzled that Milton Cheney, though merely one person, could have several main threads of destiny.
Even if Milton Cheney’s soul had split into two people, normally there would only be one main thread of destiny.
After all, even if the soul were divided, its essence remains the same and unchanged.
This was abnormal.
It indicated that between him and Lan, inevitably, one of them had observed something false.
Milton Cheney didn’t believe his own observations were false, which meant the issue must lie with Lan.
