Chapter 380

K-UYT Orbit Anomaly

The two of them were alone in the data room, and Ying Chenlin's voice fell clearly into You Su's ears. His hand paused slightly on the virtual screen, and he looked at Ying Chenlin with a hint of puzzled inquiry in his eyes.

What are the chances of 25%? It's indeed one in four.

He hadn't been lucky at all, but in his previous life, he had the worst luck. Meeting Chronos on Slareed, and then getting the information about Chronos fleeing successively, had already aroused suspicion in Ying Chenlin's mind. Such a powerful pollutant, capable of causing chaos in two major border areas, even if he had spent his entire previous life in the KID repair room, he would have heard about such a significant event concerning the territory of the Star Alliance.

There was only one possibility; many things might have already drawn a rift in his previous life.

Rebirth was an incredible thing. Ying Chenlin had once considered it a gift from heaven. He had adapted to many things after rebirth and had changed many irreversible outcomes. But if in his previous life he suddenly developed a genetic disease in the repair room, and if the events of this life were related to Chronos...

But upon careful consideration, some things were not simply luck.

Many things had happened in his previous life that were difficult to deduce. Ying Chenlin could only speculate. Perhaps in a corner he didn't know about in his previous life, or when something unexpected happened, when he couldn't travel far due to the genetic disease— the secret beneath Slareed's ground had not been discovered by the strong teams at the time, and Chronos, which had been dormant for a long time, launched a counterattack against the Star Alliance ten years later. Or perhaps the secret beneath Slareed's ground had been discovered, but Chronos had adopted a different strategy.

"I'm guessing," Ying Chenlin's gaze rested on the virtual screen, without looking at You Su. He proposed his most terrifying conjecture: "Chronos may possess the ability to rewind time."

You Su had actually been here for a long time. When he noticed Ying Chenlin searching the database for information about Chronos's reactions, he didn't disturb him. He had seen the data in the database many times. When he saw the flight date of Ying Songshan in Ying Chenlin's home on Mingguang Star, he saw Ying Songshan's flight date.

He thought Ying Chenlin might waver when he saw that date, but he didn't.

He stood there, only looking at the date, perhaps feeling sad in his heart, but he rarely cried or laughed extravagantly.

Ying Chenlin was a person who rarely showed his emotions outwardly. Only on the battlefield did he exhibit some of the youthful spirit a young person should have. But most of the time, his emotions were restrained, quiet, and stable. He knew very clearly what he should do and could quickly find his position and duty in each stage.

You Su used to think Ying Chenlin was similar to himself, but now he didn't want this person to be similar to him.

"Ying Chenlin, do you know what hypothesis you're proposing?" You Su looked at Ying Chenlin. "I've seen all the data in this database, and there's no clue suggesting that Chronos has any ability other than controlling the flow of time."

There was little information about Chronos, and proposing the ability to rewind time was unheard of among super S-class pollutants. This ability was too outrageous. To exaggerate, it had already exceeded the point where the Star Alliance estimated the upper limit of pollutants' evolution, and it was no longer within the range of pollutants' abilities. To put it more dramatically, it was like a god, not a mundane creature.
