The fourth time reversal.

Bologue sat silently at the bar, recalling the information he obtained during the third time reversal.

First and foremost, Bologue confirmed Aimou's location and identified the main enemy he was facing in this time reversal. More importantly, from the snippets shared by the King's Shield Guard and Aimou's final actions, Bologue roughly understood the cause of this time reversal.

Fantasy Species.

Aimou somehow obtained the Fantasy Species and made a wish upon it, causing this crazy reversal. That Fantasy Species should be the translucent tumor located on Aimou's chest.

Previously, Bologue didn't understand what the basis for the time reset nodes in the time reversal was, but at the end of his memory, he saw Aimou's actions.

She raised her hand and destroyed the Fantasy Species on her chest, causing everything to reverse.

The node for time reset is determined by the Fantasy Species. Once the Fantasy Species is destroyed, it will cause everything to revert to the start of the time reversal stage.

Then there's the answer as to why the node for time reset kept getting pushed back. In the first time reversal, Aimou was already attacked by the King's Shield Guard; faced with a mighty enemy, even with the armor given by Belli, she couldn't hold on for long.

To prevent the Fantasy Species from being taken, Aimou proactively destroyed it, causing everything to go back to the beginning.

And then it kept repeating; in the repeated time reversals, Aimou used her retained memories to foresee the enemy's actions, thus extending her own life and pushing the node for time reset further back.

Bologue took a deep breath and drank his orange juice down in one gulp.

The problem now was, despite knowing so much, he still found it difficult to resolve the current crisis.

The enemies he faced this time were too numerous: two Prayer Believers, one Negative Power User, and these were just those chasing Aimou.

On the front battlefield of contending for the Immortal Heart with Teda, there would be even more formidable enemies, perhaps even the appearance of Defenders.

Bologue was well aware that he couldn't handle this alone, but with limited time, who could he turn to for help?

He didn't ponder long before immediately thinking of his team leader. In times like this, even someone as maniacal as Belli showed enough professionalism, and Bologue believed his Special Operations Group wouldn't let him down.

This time, Bologue had already identified Aimou's location, so he didn't need to get a tracker from Belli, nor waste time on the road, thus buying himself more time.

Then there's Aimou's side...

Damn it!

Bologue cursed in his heart, realizing Aimou was unaware of his memory retention ability. From Aimou's perspective, every time reversal would lead her to the Great Rift once that time came.

She might use herself to fend off the King's Shield Guard, but if Bologue didn't show up there, Aimou would undoubtedly be in danger.

Bologue needed to appear there at that time node. Though the Fantasy Species possessed the ability to reset time, Bologue always felt its powers were not perfect.

Manipulating time like this, can it really fulfill such a terrifying wish just by the Fantasy Species? Bologue believed there must be some limitations.

No, he shouldn't think about these distant matters right now; Bologue should figure out a way to get some reinforcements.

He cast a steady gaze in front of him, where Serey appeared unaware, clutching his head with groans from the aftermath of drinking.

"Serey, you…" Bologue said quietly.

"You…"

Serey clearly wanted to say something, but Bologue quickly interrupted him.

"What do you mean 'you'? Hurry up and finish eating! Get to work!"

Bologue spoke swiftly, standing up abruptly, his hands pounding the bar and causing the plates to jolt up.

Serey was dumbfounded; Bologue perfectly repeated what he intended to say. He wanted to continue speaking, but Serey unmistakably sensed something was wrong with Bologue, as if something bad had happened.

Bologue revealed a helpless smile, looking at the clock on the wall, which showed it was just after he woke up; everything was right on track.

Besides reinforcements, he also needed other intelligence regarding the time reversal, and others might not provide answers, but the Undying Club was different.

Bologue regretted forgetting such an important matter. These Undead might be dim-witted, but each one is like a living fossil, having lived for an unimaginable length of time, these rare peculiar questions should be right to ask them.

The time was still decent; Bologue could afford to waste a bit of time with them.

Bologue took repeated deep breaths to calm his restless mood; he now needed to maintain rational thinking, consider his advantages, and organize his plan.

"Do you think time reversal exists, Serey?" Bologue lifted his head and questioned.

"Time reversal?"

Serey showed a pained expression; thinking after a hangover was simply torture.

"Time is a mysterious concept, few Condensers can interfere with time; even if they do, it's largely a trick with many limitations."

"So, do you think there could be a power to make…the entire city, the entire world start reversing?" Bologue asked.

Serey appeared troubled, knocking his head hard, seemingly to shake the alcohol out through his ears.

After struggling for a moment, he thought of something, "Make the entire world start reversing? That sounds too terrifying; even Seekers of Glory couldn't achieve such a feat, right?"

"What if it's a Fantasy Species?"

Upon hearing Fantasy Species, Serey's expression changed slightly, "That depends on who created the Fantasy Species. If it's created by a Defender, it might be a bit of a stretch, but if a Seeker of Glory created it at the cost of their life… perhaps such Miracle Power could exist."

Serey recalled the knowledge in his mind, having not encountered a Fantasy Species in many years due to its demanding creation conditions. But soon, Serey realized another thing.

Why would Bologue discuss such matters with him now, and why did he still have such a serious expression… although Bologue was often quite serious.

Serey remembered Bologue just repeated his words…

The murky crimson eyes gradually became clear, sparkling like rubies; the laziness in his tone vanished as Serey carefully scrutinized Bologue.

Serey asked with seriousness and solemnity, "Bologue, are we experiencing a time reversal?"

"It seems so."

Bologue appreciated this aspect of Serey, knowing when to be whimsical and when to be serious.

It's deserving of being the perceptive Night Race Lord, having guessed the possibility with mere snippets.

"How many times has it reversed?" Serey asked.

"From my perspective, this is the fourth time." Bologue replied.

Upon hearing about the fourth time reversal, Serey's expression showed a bit of shock.

"Which means, you can retain the memories from the previous reversal?" This point left Serey amazed.

Except for the initiator of the time reversal, others couldn't retain memories during the reversal, yet Bologue could.

Facing Serey's questioning gaze, a tingling electric sensation swept through Bologue, running along his spine.

His body shivered slightly; lowering his head, he confirmed his vision hadn't gone wrong, but his palms appeared blurred with afterimages, followed by droplets of nosebleed, bright red and dazzling.

Serey didn't notice the afterimages on Bologue, something only Bologue could observe.

"I guess it has something to do with my Blessing." Bologue answered.

"Time Reversing Axis…my Blessing has an independent time axis; perhaps it conflicted with the time reversal."

Bologue recalled the document's conclusion about his Blessing; the independent time axis sometimes could trigger abnormalities, and retaining memory during time reversal was one of them.

"Independent time axis?"

This term left Serey momentarily puzzled; his view of Bologue took on a hint of change, though he didn't voice his inner curiosity.

"I don't quite understand, but it seems you know why you can retain memory, right?" Serey said.

"Correct."

Bologue nervously watched the clock, even though he had fought for tremendous time, he was still anxiously uneasy.

It was like a time-devouring wolf, pursuing everyone.
