Chapter 531: Chapter 292 “Several Main Threads of Destiny” and “The Simulator’s Protection Mechanism?” (Subscribe please)_2

But Lan had not lied.

In other words, what Lan saw was also real.

Yet, this was impossible, because if that were the case, it would be a paradox.

That could only mean there was some difference between him and Lan.

At this thought, if Milton Cheney still couldn’t figure it out, then he wouldn’t be Milton Cheney.

“Simulator!”

Milton Cheney whispered to himself.

If there was any difference between him and Lan, it had to be that he possessed a Simulator while Lan did not.

Was it the factor of the Simulator that made Lan’s observation change?

And as the owner of the Simulator, was Milton Cheney’s observation the unaltered essence?

Perhaps it was the Simulator’s protection mechanism?

Was this the case?

Milton Cheney’s thoughts occasionally flickered through his mind.

In his current speculation, it was very likely so.

If there was an existence capable of altering other people’s perception of the River of Fate without changing Milton Cheney’s perception, it could only be the Simulator.

Moreover, the Simulator was centered around him, so such a situation was not impossible.

In just an instant, countless thoughts passed through Milton Cheney’s mind.

He was almost certain that reality was as he had guessed.

Although he didn’t know why he was unable to observe his own trajectory in the River of Fate, he was now clear about one thing.

That was, although others could observe his trajectory, it was very likely due to the Simulator’s protection mechanism and not because he had a trajectory in the River of Fate to begin with.

In other words, everything about him observed by others in the River of Fate might be false.

It could be what the Simulator wanted others to observe, which was what they ended up observing.

However, those observing him would believe everything they saw was real.

Yet all these were uncontrollable to Milton Cheney, in gaming terms, they meant a passive ability.

It was the Simulator’s passive protection for Milton Cheney.

After realizing this, the contemplative expression on Milton Cheney’s face vanished completely.

The contemplative look on Milton Cheney’s face disappeared, but in contrast, Lan’s brows were tightly furrowed, seemingly caught in thoughts that he couldn’t fathom.

Just as Milton Cheney had speculated.

At this moment, Lan’s heart was far from calm.

However, he had already formed a guess as to why Milton Cheney had come to see him.

Lan believed that perhaps Milton Cheney had observed this anomaly in the River of Fate and thus came to verify it with him.

Of course, what Lan did not know was that Milton Cheney had not observed multiple main trajectories of fate, but rather had observed nothing at all.

However, Milton Cheney would not take the initiative to talk about these things.

Watching Lan immersed in thought, Milton Cheney did not interrupt and spoke up.

Milton Cheney stood silently in Lan’s Rules Space, quietly waiting.

Lan did not make Milton Cheney wait for too long, after a short while, Lan’s furrowed brows relaxed slightly.

The look of contemplation on his face also subsided.

Even Milton Cheney could not tell whether Lan had come to some conclusion or had drawn a blank.

Anyone who could become a Level 5 Wizard was no simple character.

And Lan was not someone who had just become a Level 5 Wizard.

Lan had been a wizard for at least a hundred thousand years.

The reason he lost his composure was that the shock Milton Cheney had brought him was too overwhelming.

Otherwise, he would likely be indifferent about everything else.

Such an existence, even if Milton Cheney wanted to glean something merely from Lan’s facial expressions, was not realistic.

After all, he was not a deity who could read the minds of others.

Moreover, Milton Cheney was only a Level 5 Wizard, standing at the same level as Lan.

“The concept of fate is too vast, even for me, I’ve only touched upon an extremely small portion,” Lan said somewhat helplessly.

“A case like yours, this is the first time I’ve encountered it.”

“So I do not know how to solve it.”

Lan spoke with a touch of helplessness.

He believed the reason Milton Cheney came to him, his Ancestral Master, was because he had been a Level 5 Wizard for longer.

Perhaps it was because Milton Cheney had just become a Level 5 Wizard that the only Advanced Level Wizard he could find was him.

Thus, he wanted to ask for his help to see how this situation should be handled.

After pondering, Lan knew all too well that he could not manage this situation. To speak of resolving it was one thing; he was completely in the dark about why it had even occurred.

It must be said that becoming a Level 5 Wizard is by no means simple.

Although Lan’s guess was not entirely correct, it was half right.

“You can’t do it either?”

Milton Cheney sighed and spoke with a touch of apt frustration in his tone.

Before Lan could speak, Milton Cheney might not have guessed what Lan was thinking.

But now, Milton Cheney knew what was on Lan’s mind.

However, he showed no intention of explaining.

He simply continued along the lines of what Lan had been saying.

“I can’t, but that doesn’t mean others can’t either,”

With a trace of a smile on his face, Lan spoke.

After all, Milton Cheney was his apprentices; if he could help, he would.

Although Lan did not know by what means Milton Cheney had achieved the status of Level 5 Wizard, that was no longer important.

Milton Cheney didn’t respond to these words, but his eyes brightened momentarily.

It seemed he was waiting for Lan to continue speaking.

“Although my understanding of fate is shallow, one must know that the Guardian Sea does not have only me as an Advanced Level Wizard.”

“A Level 7 Wizard could directly pluck the incarnation of fate from the River of Fate, perhaps the Guardian Lord could solve your doubts,”

Lan didn’t leave Milton Cheney hanging and continued speaking.

After saying this, his expression became more serious.

Upon hearing this, Milton Cheney’s expression did not change, but his heart stirred slightly.

The meaning in Lan’s words was not difficult for Milton Cheney to grasp; he was suggesting that Cheney should seek out the Guardian Lord of the Guardian Sea.

After all, within the Guardian Sea, the Guardian Lord was the only Level 7 Wizard.

As for the incarnation of fate, Milton Cheney was aware of what it entailed.

The incarnation of fate was, in fact, another concept of the tracks of destiny.

Just as a Level 5 Wizard could observe the tracks of destiny,

a Level 6 Wizard could also observe the tracks of destiny. However, to a Level 6 Wizard, each person’s destiny track was actually an incarnation.

Wizards of this level could see a clearer trajectory of fate through the observation of these incarnations.

This was normal.

After all, the higher the Wizard’s Level, the deeper their entanglement with the destiny of the Wizard Realm became.

And with that came a progressively deeper command over fate within the River of Fate.

A Level 5 Wizard could observe the tracks of destiny in the River of Fate and a Level 6 Wizard could observe fate’s incarnations there.

This was something Milton Cheney already knew.

But the fact that a Level 7 Wizard could directly capture the incarnation of fate from the River of Fate was unknown to Milton Cheney until now.

Was the command of a Level 7 Wizard over the River of Fate still so great?

Although there was a hint of surprise in Milton Cheney’s heart, his face remained expressionless.

That seemed normal as well.

Becoming a Level 7 Wizard in the Wizard Realm means one’s entanglement with the destiny of the Wizard Realm had reached an incomprehensibly deep level.

It could even be said that if the Wizard Realm were to perish, a Level 7 Wizard might not die immediately but would suffer a severe blow.

Under such circumstances, it was not difficult to understand that a Level 7 Wizard had this capability.

With this in mind, Milton Cheney’s heart stirred slightly.

Perhaps it wouldn’t be a bad idea to meet Mansour.

After all, this is just within the True Body Simulation, and there was the simulator’s shield, so Milton Cheney had no worries.

As for whether Mansour would act against him directly, Milton Cheney was even less concerned.

The chances of such a scenario occurring were extremely low.

Mansour had significant plans, so whether Cheney’s realm anomaly or destiny anomaly, they didn’t relate to him much.

As long as in his eyes Milton Cheney does not affect his plans to become a Transcendent, then he would not take Cheney seriously.
