‘It’s done.’ Qin Muye was also relieved inside, if it wasn’t absolutely necessary to have Sun Zhen as an anchor, just his avatar alone wouldn’t have made it.

“Besides, you’ve also got to bring food, water, and various equipment because when retreating in time…” Qin Muye briefly explained the principle to Sun Zhen.

“Boss, huh, has your presence been restored?” Although it had been twelve years, Sun Zhen still recognized Qin Muye at first sight and then realized that Qin Muye had actually returned to normal.

“Back then, I turned into medicine, and all these years running around looking for other herbs was how I solved my presence issue,” Qin Muye said helplessly.

“Captain, there is someone outside looking for you; he says he’s an old acquaintance,” a member of the Special Task Force said as he rushed over.

“Hmm, I tried it already, but the cost is steep, rolling back once consumes ten years of lifespan, and each reversal can include only up to two people, fortunately, it only consumes the lifespan of the person doing the reversal, not the other, and importantly, people with too much strength can’t be reversed, just like those twelve,” Qin Muye said.

“Hmm, this thing is capable of reversing time; I’ve tried it, turning back the clock can get us back to one second before,” Qin Muye spoke.

“Enough, let’s not talk about this anymore, I brought something good over.” Qin Muye mysteriously pulled out a pocket watch from his chest.

“Okay, I’ll be ready.”

“That’s good; it seems like the Emperor dealt with the situation for other reasons,” Sun Zhen believed Qin Muye, then rarely joked, “Where’s my Main Character Aura then, boss? You didn’t forget to upgrade it, did you?”

“Let’s meet then,” Sun Zhen didn’t ponder too much at this time.

“No wonder, under normal circumstances, I should have been contained, it seems like, after the upgrade you gave me, I managed to turn danger into safety, and my rapid rise over the years must also have contributed,” Sun Zhen recalled, and indeed, it had been problematic.

“Not long after you were captured, I’ve been gathering up stuff for your upgrade, or else did you really think you could have attained your current position?” Qin Muye bluntly said.

“You rascal, you’re still painting pie-in-the-skies, let’s talk about the lifespan later; get ready, bring everything needed, better record the current set of data, otherwise, if we really go back, there won’t be any evidence,” Qin Muye wasn’t keen on it.

“If you want me to help deal with an Abnormality, then you’ve got the wrong person, because I’ve recovered, so the ability to transform and effortlessly handle Abnormalities is gone, and if it really came to a fight, you wouldn’t stand a chance against me,” Qin Muye spread his hands and spoke bluntly.

“Just recovered recently, I’ve been running around for twelve years because of this, and now that disaster has struck, I can only come and seek refuge with you,” Qin Muye joked.

“Look at you, all startled, what’s the matter? Forgot about me?” Qin Muye, now middle-aged, carried a teasing tone in his voice.

“All World Protector Organization will remember you! As long as you can take me back, I will have twelve doctors use an Omega Level Abnormality to extend your life,” although Sun Zhen now held a high position, he was still front-line personnel, adept in motivating people.

“What old acquaintance?” Sun Zhen was a bit puzzled; honestly, he had hardly any old acquaintances left, most of them were almost all dead.

“No need to worry about the lifespan issue, I can handle it; I turned the Emperor’s Nascent Soul into medicine, a guaranteed lifespan of a hundred thousand years, that should be enough; lifespan was just an extra addition, before, I just wanted to get rid of the problem of my low presence,” Qin Muye said.

“I’m not sure, it seems he might be about the Captain’s age, could be real,” this team member didn’t fabricate, but told it like it was.

“Using life in exchange? I understand, I will arrange it,” Sun Zhen said helplessly.

“This…” Sun Zhen’s face stiffened, and he ultimately sighed wordlessly, then continued to ask, “What exactly did you do with the Emperor’s Nascent Soul back then?”

“It has indeed been tough, but right now, I really need your help,” Sun Zhen said, looking delighted.

“What’s this? An Abnormality?” Sun Zhen was curious.

“Really?” Sun Zhen, now rich in experience, naturally understood Qin Muye’s meaning.

Essentially, they used the pocket watch as an anchor, forcibly dragging the entire timeline through the sea of information, so they couldn’t return to a younger state because they were part of the anchor; whatever their state now, it would be the same when they reverted to the past.

However, with this flaw, Sun Zhen felt relieved instead—if the abnormality suddenly didn’t cause trouble, there would be a problem.

Soon, the person was brought in, and Sun Zhen’s expression carried a hint of disbelief.

The plan, on paper, didn’t have many issues, but the actual data was bound to have discrepancies, similar to this time retrospective pocket watch, which Qin Muye had never used because he was unregistered; using it would cause anomalies in the sea of information, hence needing Sun Zhen, the anchor, to assist.

It was just a meeting, not a big deal.

Letting his past self gain further control over the sea of information, and each control would accumulate data from the sea of information and consequently consume it—the more times he reverted, the greater the length of time experienced, and thus, the accumulation would be more substantial.

Now, managing to protect this shelter was no small feat.

Ten thousand years might seem a lot, but in terms of consumption, it was probably not much, especially since further guidance for loss of control was expected, likely causing even more terrifying consumption.

Sun Zhen didn’t know much about Emperor’s condition, but he knew a little, so he could only ask.

At this point, many things had become necessary.

He wasn’t lacking in lifespan; the real challenge was the spacetime disparity during the reversion process.

Sun Zhen also found it somewhat unbelievable because, simply put, now the pocket watch required only ten years per rewind; however, as the watch gradually lost control, it was unclear whether the length of time reverted would increase, but the consumption of lifespan would definitely grow.

Sun Zhen’s expression was weary; he hadn’t rested in five days, and even though he had fully awakened the power of the Cat-sigh Star, given the current circumstances, it wouldn’t matter if the Cat-sigh Star was reborn, or even if the Human Emperor returned—the twelve zodiac doctors were all held back, and many special task force members had died.

Sun Zhen naturally had no objections; he just treated it as if Qin Muye had tested it already.

So it was reverting time, not rebirthing time.

He currently wasn’t using the common Wise Man’s Book Shadow Costume, but rather an anchor-type avatar based on this time retrospective pocket watch, not very strong, but storing a vast amount of memories—each reversion would send one set of data to his original body, a significant amount, containing various corresponding plans and a lot of intelligence information.

He was already thirty-nine and considered quite survivable in the special task force; most of his peers had already been eliminated from memory due to surpassing their life’s peak and were dispatched to various clerical positions, with very few still in service, and those who were, were similar to him, possessing extraordinary powers within them.

Because they were on the same timeline, not parallel timelines, their reverting didn’t return them to the original point in time, but to their current spatial position, resulting in scenarios where one second, Sun Zhen was resisting an abnormality, and the next, he was back at the shelter base.

This reason also startled Sun Zhen; in fact, the All World Protector Organization suspected someone had found the Emperor’s Nascent Soul and returned it to the Emperor, leading to the conflict over the Dragon Vein, eventually causing a massive containment breach.

This made Sun Zhen feel somewhat helpless; the reason was simple—ten years of lifespan was just too much, especially since it was only limited to ordinary people; if the twelve zodiac doctors could use it, their lifespans should have been enough.

Thus, it was Qin Muye who used it, but the data uploaded came from Sun Zhen, with the deducted lifespan taken from Qin Muye’s account, roughly equal to acting on behalf, relying on this trick to deceive the heavens.

Currently, there were only suspicions, no evidence because the scene had been tampered with; who knew what had happened, and given the current situation, no one was bothering about these details anymore.

As long as they let this time retrospective pocket watch abnormality continue to lose control to increase the length of time reverted, they could return to before the containment breach occurred and prevent everything.

Only after their success, in an instant, overlapping all the data, as if compressing this entire period into a moment, ultimately resulting in a strategic deployment.
