Next, Xiao Ran got someone to take Sōsuke to the genetic research department to confirm which bloodline serum was suitable for Sōsuke. As the protagonist of this world and with the Lambda Drive ability, Sōsuke's potential was definitely not weak. Before the army arrived in this world, Sōsuke was basically the only one who could successfully deal with the invasion of dimensional beasts.
Since Sōsuke was willing to join Xiao Ran, he would not be stingy. Now was indeed the time for more powerhouses to join. Sōsuke was the kind of person who would definitely grow into a powerhouse. How could Xiao Ran be stingy with the bloodline serum and the body and throw this powerhouse who would definitely grow into a powerhouse aside?
Although the current Sōsuke was still a little weak in the eyes of the villain, these were all small problems. Once the bloodline serum was strengthened, he would receive targeted guidance and training, and with a super-powerful Lambda Drive body, the power he could unleash in a short period of time would definitely not be too bad. In particular, as the chosen one of this world, the speed of his growth was simply too terrifying. He might even play an important role in critical moments.
As for Chidori, she was left in Xiao Ran's office. Looking at Chidori's nervous expression, Xiao Ran suddenly said, "In fact, you should have been able to communicate with Sophia some time ago, right?"
"Ah?" Chidori was stunned for a moment. She reflexively wanted to refuse, but after seeing Xiao Ran's determined gaze, she gently lowered her head. "Yes, after learning from Master Dongfang Bubai and the others for a while, I could already feel her presence. Moreover, her influence on me was not as great as before. Sometimes, I could even hear her voice and communicate normally."
"She kept telling me that only by resetting this world could it return to normal, but I ignored her because you, Mr. Xiao Ran, told me before that the world after resetting would no longer be the current world."
Xiao Ran nodded. In fact, Xiao Ran had already noticed it the last time they met. However, he could also see that Chidori's condition was not affected, so he only made some normal arrangements and did not interfere too much.
Xiao Ran asked, "Can you still contact her now?"
Chidori nodded. "Yes."
Xiao Ran smiled. "Don't be nervous. I'll use another method to let you meet her."
As he spoke, a layer of green light suddenly appeared on Xiao Ran's body. His hair gradually turned from solid to ghostly green, and his whole body emitted green light spots. Soon, the huge office was filled with green light spots. As Xiao Ran's hand gently pointed at Chidori's direction, Chidori, who was still stunned by Xiao Ran's transformation, suddenly felt that the world in front of her had changed greatly.
"This is a spiritual space, a place specially used for spiritual communication. It can allow people to reach a complete understanding with other people, or between people and other races, and thus settle disputes. Here, you can see things that you can't see with your eyes, and use your own spirit and thoughts to understand more things."
Chidori quickly turned around and saw the figure standing in the void behind her. "Mr. Xiao Ran?"
"It's me. This is my special ability. I can treat this place as a place where only souls can enter. This way, it'll be easier to understand. That's why you can truly see her here." Xiao Ran smiled at Chidori, then looked behind Chidori. A figure was emerging. It was somewhat similar to Chidori, but the color of her hair was completely different. "Sophia, you must know that this isn't the first time we've met."
Sophia seemed not to have heard Xiao Ran's words. She lowered her head and raised her hand in a daze, looking at her own body.
Qianniao turned around and also saw the third person who had appeared in this mysterious space. The moment she saw the other party, a special feeling welled up in Qianniao's heart. She stared blankly for a moment. "You … are Sophia."
Sophia slowly put down her hand and raised her head. Her gaze was calm and filled with indifference as she looked at Xiao Ran. "In the countless reset worlds, you and that fleet have never existed. To this world, what's the difference between you and that universe?"
"Dimensional beasts invade and destroy. The help and future we bring is the biggest difference." Xiao Ran floated in front of Sophia and said, "I want to save this world and Earth, so I need your help. If you choose to join us, then you'll know everything."
Sophia didn't care at all. "I'm not interested in your secrets, and I won't help you."
"No, you will." Xiao Ran said, "You may have created this world, but it's now completely different from what you planned, because this world will never enter the cycle of reset again. Besides, helping us is actually the same as helping yourself.
"To the real you, no matter how many years have passed and how many times this world has reset, it's probably just a moment for you. And in this moment, the situation you've encountered doesn't seem to be so good. All this time, you've been resetting this world countless times, with the goal of changing and redeeming yourself. I can do what you want.
"As long as you're willing to help us, we can jump to the world you're in now and save you from endless suffering. All the disasters you've suffered will be completely changed because of our power. Although you're the creator of this world, you're not God.
"You can treat this as a deal. You'll do your best to help us and join us, and we'll do our best to help you. Even if you want to destroy another world, you don't have to doubt it. Since you already know our origins, you should know that it's not difficult for us to cross worlds.
"Besides, do you really think that resetting this world will make the dimensional beasts unable to come here forever? That's impossible. You may be able to reset this world, but you definitely won't be able to change the coordinates of this world. Since the dimensional beasts have already determined the coordinates of this world, as long as you don't destroy it from the source, no matter how many times you reset it, it will still be invaded by dimensional beasts. In essence, even if you create countless worlds, they're all just behind the same door," Sophia said calmly.
"If resetting a hundred times doesn't work, then resetting a thousand times. If a thousand times doesn't work, then resetting ten thousand times. One day, even if you rely on the power of this world, you'll still be able to eliminate the dimensional beasts."
Xiao Ran shook his head. "It's useless. The so-called resetting you must go through before all the Whisperers are born but haven't grown up yet, before the technology you've accumulated through countless resets takes effect, the dimensional beasts will be able to deduce the truth of this world. Then, they'll sweep up countless humans and turn them into dimensional beasts. Resetting again and again will only make the dimensional beasts grow stronger again and again. When that time comes, you'll never be able to achieve your goal. This world will only become a material factory for the dimensional beasts under their deliberate coercion."
"We have the premise of cooperation. We can lend you our power, and you can lend us your power. This is a triple win. First, we can change your current situation. Second, we can let this world continue to develop on its normal track. Third, we can eliminate all the dimensional beasts. As long as we reach an agreement, none of us will suffer losses because of this cooperation, and we can even get what we want."
Sophia sneered. "Hehe, you're the same as those people. You're only interested in my power. I won't agree."
Xiao Ran was silent. He vaguely remembered that Sophia was treated as some kind of test subject by the people of her world. Her heart was filled with hatred, so Xiao Ran didn't expect Sophia to agree to cooperate with him just by casually saying a few words. At least for now, Xiao Ran hadn't been able to come up with anything that could tempt her, or anything that could be decisive.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Ran asked, "You've already confirmed that we're actually from another world. Then, do you want to see what the other world is like?"
Xiao Ran didn't wait for Sophia to refuse. He directly connected his spirit with Sophia's. However, as the leader, as the highest-level innovator, Xiao Ran had long had the ability to block information he didn't want to reveal without being discovered by the other party.
Xiao Ran blocked all information related to Prometheus and made appropriate modifications. He showed Sophia the existence of a powerful force that spanned across multiple worlds, which was the Burning Legion. At the same time, he also showed her the different encounters of different worlds. The salvation after the destruction of the MUV world, the peace after the chaos of the Revolutionary Machine world, the joint development of the SEED world, the greatness and advancement of the Fleet world, the alien war in the OG world …
Xiao Ran also saw a lot. The technical data accumulated by the Whisperers after countless world resets included all kinds of things. He also saw Sophia's former happiness and joy, as well as her current sorrow and pain.
For Chidori, she only saw Xiao Ran's hand directly placed on Sophia's forehead. Then, Sophia seemed to have become sluggish and didn't move at all. Meanwhile, Xiao Ran's brows were slightly furrowed. He didn't know what happened between the two of them.
Less than ten seconds had passed in the outside world before Xiao Ran's hand left Sophia's forehead. After Sophia came back to her senses, Xiao Ran said, "That's my world, and also the power I control. In my world, we've always strived to seek development and peace, to seek more ways to integrate, and to discuss a more vast future. I sincerely invite you to become one of us. I hope you can join the Burning Legion's technical department."
"Apart from that, no one will do anything to hurt you. I can even promise you that no one will force you to do anything you don't want to do."
Sophia looked at Xiao Ran with a complicated gaze. "I don't understand. What's the point of doing this for you guys? It's just an endless battle."
Sophia saw Xiao Ran and the Burning Legion fighting in various worlds, stopping the war and protecting Earth. There was a lot of information about this. It was the image of a protector who was willing to sacrifice himself to turn the situation around in multiple worlds. His image was very positive. Although he eventually became the ruler of those worlds, what he brought to those worlds wasn't just a notice, but order and a future.
Xiao Ran said, "Of course it's meaningful. Different worlds have different characteristics and different technological systems. This is of great significance to our development. Moreover, it can greatly increase our own strength. Moreover, protection isn't a bad thing. It's also a good thing for us. It can let us get more resources and get more outstanding talents to join us. We've chosen not to destroy or plunder, but to unite and develop together."
"I don't know if this can make you change your mind a little, but you're very important to me now. Your abilities and your role are all so. At least we won't use you as a test subject, nor have we used any innocent people or kind souls as test subjects. I hope you can truly join us, become a part of our family, and become the leader of the technology department."
There was no need to doubt the authenticity of the spiritual communication. At the moment of contact, Sophia could feel that everything Xiao Ran showed her was real, but she didn't feel that Xiao Ran was deliberately hiding it. But at least it wasn't a deception. It was an inevitable choice that couldn't be made known to Sophia. This wasn't a pure communication, but merely a mutual transmission of information.
Sophia shook her head. She didn't give Xiao Ran a definite answer, but she also didn't reject him as decisively as before. At least she saw a lot of the world's beauty from Xiao Ran. Truly beautiful things. Fighting for the future of the world together, working hard for a better world together.
Sophia's appearance made Xiao Ran reveal a faint smile. He could already see that Sophia was moved. Perhaps this move wasn't aimed at joining the Burning Legion, but because she felt that the Burning Legion already had the ability to free her from her pain. But no matter what, this was still a good thing.
And when she knew that this world no longer had the possibility of being reset, her hopes of achieving her goals in this world were already shattered. Now, Xiao Ran showed her a new hope.
"If you join us, we can use the fastest speed to locate the world your real body is in, and then cross over to rescue you. If you don't cooperate, it'll be very difficult for us to determine the coordinates of your world. Helping us is actually helping yourself."
