Chapter 699: Chapter 327 Conjectures about the Book of Destiny_3

Li Yelai was pondering if everything proceeded according to the Book Holder’s calculations.

Li Yelai died amidst the Disaster Fog, or rather, in some inconspicuous corner. In the end, the Insect Master probably died as well, but humanity would pay a heavy price.

Afterward, No.3 Border City was rebuilt and continued to cooperate with the Jing Family, opening the Immortal Palace and inviting Ye Han.

Could it be that Ye Han being drawn to the Doll was also a deduction within the Book of Destiny?

Then in the Book of Destiny, if Li Yelai was already dead, what would become of the Doll?

“No matter what, with me, the Fate Plague, around, certain outcomes won’t occur!” Li Yelai thought to himself. If it weren’t for Calamity affecting others, Li Yelai guessed he would gamble more, throwing off all the Book of Destiny’s predictions.

Predict, predict, predict, what are you predicting? You think life’s a game?

“If you’re looking to learn about the Book Holder’s information, you could try contacting the Wilderness Ranger,” Jing Lin reminded him. “Didn’t the Overlord mention it inside the ark? There was once a ‘Witness’ within the ark who was originally the Book Holder’s companion, but they separated due to differing ideals.”

Right, that’s an entry point!

The founder of the Wilderness Rangers was indeed the Witness!

At that time, it was said that the Wilderness Rangers were very active, the main suppliers for the Ark Chosen Ones.

But in the end, the two had a conflict, and the Witness seemed to have lost, never entering the ark again.

If he were to contact the Rangers, he might obtain some desired information.

Coincidentally, Li Yelai was indeed able to make contact with the Wilderness Rangers. He had a Ranger Coin on him!

The only trouble was that the Wilderness Rangers had almost all sworn allegiance to the Chaos Fifth God.

Officially, the authorities were observing how electors of the Fifth God behaved, but they had to be cautious in the end. After all, it was Chaos…

However, the Fifth God had a peculiar fetish, an extreme racial fastidiousness.

The other Chaos Gods had a vast number of non-human followers, almost welcoming anyone, while he only wanted humans.

Moreover, his blessing ability added extra damage against non-human species.

From this perspective, he shouldn’t come into conflict with humans, right?

Unfortunately, Li Yelai knew too little about the Fifth God.

He only knew that He was very young, the youngest of the Chaos Gods.

The oldest among the Chaos Gods were Deceit Dao and Father of Plague, then Blood God, followed by Jile, and then the Fifth God…

“I’ll try to contact the Ranger,” Li Yelai said as he got up. “I’m off.”

“Wait a moment,” Jing Lin spoke up. “You don’t seem quite yourself, a bit out of it. What’s wrong?”

“Maybe it’s that I suddenly have a cute companion, and it feels a bit unreal?” Li Yelai replied. “The Doll is my companion, next time you see it, remember to bring a gift. We’re brothers after all, so make sure it’s a generous one.”

Jing Lin was taken aback and remained somewhat dazed even after Li Yelai had left.

Then, with some disbelief, he considered, was the Champion’s curse broken?

That didn’t seem to be the case. What was Li Ye up to?

With such low emotional intelligence, how did he get a companion?

You didn’t just force yourself on the Doll, did you?

Then, he quickly opened a ledger, looking at the gambled amount written on it, Jing Lin immediately wailed.

“What kind of bad luck did you bring home? You must’ve been robbed!”

“You’re a Spiritual Ability User, why worry about not being able to return? Just take it and talk later!”

“You and your rationale, did a pretty face rob you?”

“I bet two million eight hundred thousand on you!”

“Cheese, you’re so disappointing!”

“Damn, when was it supposed to be rivers of blood?”

…

Meanwhile, on the other side, within the space of Ten Thousand Dragon Lake.

Cheese stared blankly at the brewed coffee, lost in thought.

After a long while, she picked up the teacup and took a sip.

“Really bitter…” she murmured, her expression somewhat desolate.
