Ultimate Series, Past Lives Revealed

81: apocalypse[Time Dimension Selected: Gold Time Dimension]

[Character Selected: Arthur Wang, known as King Arthur]

[Tong Time Space Evil Girl Group: We’ve noticed that only the Gold Time Dimension and the Iron Time Dimension are within the selection range.]

[Silver Time-Space Zhou Yu: Huyan Jue Luo Xiu mentioned before that only the Iron Time Dimension and the Gold Time Dimension haven’t fallen, so these two dimensions are the hope.]

[Silver Time-Space Zhang Fei: What a pity, I wanted to see what Guan Yu’s past life was.]

[Guan Yu of the Silver Time-Space: Fei, don’t talk nonsense.]

[Wang Yase, because he fixes his clothes and hair while fighting, was nicknamed Narcissist by his good brother, Wang Dadong.]

[Wang Dadong of the Gold Time Dimension: Haha—Narcissist, look, you’re famous now.]

[Wang Yase: I hope my past life wasn’t that embarrassing.]

[Arthur Wang’s past life was set in an apocalyptic world, and he was a handsome, powerful, but tragic male protagonist.]

[Illusion Time-Space: Apocalypse? Is it the end of the world?]

[Iron Time-Space A Kou: What kind of Apocalypse?]

As soon as this heavenly screen appeared, the revelation that Arthur Wang’s past life was in an apocalyptic world caused a stir among the people of the Twelve Time Spaces.

[Year Six of the Apocalypse]

[In a remote corner of Blue Star, there stood a seemingly ordinary Survival Base. However, hidden within this base was a secret unknown to the world—a dark and terrifying Laboratory.]

[Silver Time Space Xiao Qiao: What a scary place.]

[When you step into this Laboratory, the first things you see are rows of cold hospital beds. On each bed, an Ability User is tightly bound.]

[Jiu Wu of the Iron Time Dimension: Human experimentation!!!]

[Huyan Jue Luo Xiu of the Iron Time Dimension: And they’re Ability Users!]

[They were all skin and bones, looking as if they would collapse at the slightest breeze. Their bodies were covered in dense networks of tubes connected to precise and complex instruments, emitting occasional ticking and dripping sounds that were spine-chilling.]

[Tong Time Space Evil Girl Group: Wuwuwu—so scary!]

[Illusion Time-Space: They’re simply not fit to be called human!]

[Among the many rooms, one was particularly special. A man was imprisoned inside; although he didn’t look much different from the other captives at first glance, his handsome face could not be hidden even in his state of extreme emaciation. Sadly, his eyes were hollow and lifeless, having lost their former brilliance.]

[Hao Jiaqi: Arthur’s past life started so tragically!]

[Jin Time-Space Cai Wu Xiong: Arthur won’t be miserable this time; I’ll protect him.]

[Wang Yase: Uh, thanks, Five Bears!]

[Wang Dadong of the Gold Time Dimension: Narcissist, although your last life was miserable, Sister Jingang is right—you have her in this life.]

[Wang Tulong of the Gold Time Dimension: Son, that’s right, your dad is here too.]

[This man had no name; in this dark place, he was referred to only as Subject 001. After so long, he had already forgotten who he was, and the fragments of memory remaining in his mind were like a mist, impossible to piece together. But there was one thing he always kept in mind: he had to escape this terrifying place.]

[Silver Space Huang Zhong: Truly despicable, to even strip someone of their name!]

[Jiu Lai from Iron Space: He has already become nothing more than a valuable object.]

[Because it was always pitch black here, with no distinction between day and night, 001 had completely lost all sense of time. Just as he was racking his brains for a way to escape, a harsh conversation suddenly drifted in from outside the door.]

[Wei Yi of the Copper Time Dimension: In a place like this, it’s quite impressive that he only lost his memory and hasn’t gone insane.]

[Tong Era Xiang Ning: I would go crazy.]

[”Smelly Miss, we’ll soon be able to isolate the Ability Factors from 001! When that time comes, even ordinary people will be able to possess Special Abilities!”]

[Xia Mei: Haha—is that surname for real? There’s actually a surname ’Chou’?]

[Illusion Time-Space: First time I’ve heard of it.]

[Wood Time-Space: Just from the surname, you can tell they’re not a good person.]

[”And another thing, I’ve discovered that 001’s cell activity is actually a hundred times higher than a normal person’s! It might even allow our research to continue for much longer!”]

[Guan Yu of the Silver Time-Space: They really intend to squeeze every bit of value out of him.]

[Jin Time-Space Cai Wu Xiong: Wuwuwu—Arthur!]

[Wang Yase: I’m fine, don’t cry, thank you!]

[Hearing this conversation, a surge of despair couldn’t help but rise in 001’s heart.]

[Was he really going to be a test subject for these people forever, with no hope of a future? No, he was unwilling! No matter what, he had to find a way to break free and regain his freedom...]

[”Hmm, Professor, you should know how to explain things once the results are out, right?” This voice was unusually familiar to 001, but for the moment, he couldn’t remember who it belonged to. However, for some reason, just hearing the voice caused an uncontrollable surge of intense hatred to well up in his heart.]

[Iron Time-Space Xia Tian: What does this mean?]

[Silver Time-Space Zhou Yu: It means she wants the Professor to lie.]

[Xia Yu from Iron Space: Tsk tsk tsk, Arthur Wang is just too pitiful.]

[”Also, Professor, please stop calling me by my surname!” said the one called Miss Yalian, her tone sounding somewhat displeased.]

[Silver Time-Space Zhang Fei: Haha... even she knows her surname sounds bad.]

[Jin Bao San from Gold Space: No normal person would like it, okay?]

[”Of course, this... uh...” The Professor paused slightly, seemingly realizing he had almost made a slip of the tongue, and quickly corrected himself. ”Chou... oh, no, Miss Yalian, we are a legitimate research institute; how could there be any test subjects!”]

[Iron Time-Space A Kou: Is this Professor sure he isn’t doing that on purpose?]

[”Professor, I would like to have a few words with 001 alone, if I may?” Miss Yalian requested.]

[Xiao Yang: What is she doing? I feel like she’s up to no good.]

[”This... Miss Yalian, there are clear regulations from above; it’s strictly forbidden for anyone to be alone with a test subject,” the Professor replied with a troubled look.]

[Wang Dadong of the Gold Time Dimension: Uh, what’s the point of that regulation?]

[”Hmph, regulations are just dead things. As long as you keep your lips sealed, who will know? As for the surveillance equipment, we can just slightly modify the relevant data in a bit,” Miss Yalian said confidently.]

[”This... alright. But you must finish quickly, otherwise, if something goes wrong, I won’t be able to account for it to the higher-ups,” the Professor hesitated before finally agreeing.]

[Ma Chao from Silver Time Sphere: The Professor just agreed like that?]

[Illusion Time-Space: It’s probably because Smelly Miss’s status is unusual.]

[Iron Time Dimension: Haha—Smelly Miss, is there a Miss Xiang?]

[Silver Space Huang Zhong: There probably is.]

[”Rest assured, I only intend to say one sentence to him.” After saying this, 001 heard a set of footsteps gradually approaching, while another set of footsteps receded.]

[Immediately afterward, the lights in the room suddenly flared on. Having been in darkness for so long, the abrupt bright light made 001’s eyes extremely uncomfortable, and he instinctively shut them tight.]

[”Tsk tsk tsk, how pitiful! Who told you to be so blind as to look down on me back then? Look at the miserable state you’re in now; you brought this entirely on yourself, hahaha... Not only is your family ruined, but you’ve actually become a test subject at the mercy of others. And even more tragically, you’ve forgotten exactly who you are!” Accompanied by a burst of shrill laughter, 001’s body shuddered violently, and his eyes snapped open.]

[Xia Mei: As expected, she’s just here to kick him while he’s down.]

[Sun Shang Xiang from Silver Space: She’s provoking him.]

”In the Gold Time Dimension, Cai Wuxiong could no longer hold back and ran to Arthur Wang’s house to find him; Arthur was too pitiful and needed comfort.”

Cai Yunhan couldn’t stop her and could only follow along!
