Chapter 1441: People from a Distant Era
Gu Fan had no idea how much time had passed when he slowly awoke, feeling as if a very long period had elapsed. Yet, he discovered that his eyes were covered, blinding him to his surroundings.
"You’re awake!" came a voice as cold as if it were a machine.
Gu Fan was startled, not knowing whether he was in the hands of friend or foe. He decided it was best to be polite for now. So he said, "Hello there, big brother. I had no choice but to intrude into your abode; I apologize for any offense. Rest assured, I will help you clean the floor."
The cold voice spoke again, "You are special."
Gu Fan quickly agreed, "Right, right, right. Everyone has their own unique quality; each person is an independent individual in this world. You have such insight, big brother."
"That’s not what I mean," said the cold voice. A hand as cold as ice then pressed against Gu Fan’s face.
Gu Fan was surprised, as the coldness was unlike that of any human hand.
The cold voice added another sentence, "You carry the energy of the Destiny Stone. It seems that you have been chosen by the Destiny Stone to complete our ancient Super Civilization’s mission."
Upon hearing this, Gu Fan was even more astonished. The content of the other party’s speech suggested a possible connection to the ancient Super Civilization. So Gu Fan asked, "What mission, may I ask, big brother, do you have with the ancient Super Civilization?"
The cold voice chuckled, "Do you want to know what I look like?"
Gu Fan shivered inside, growing somewhat afraid, "Will there be consequences if I know what you look like?"
