Walking out of the Healing House, although the sunlight on the ceiling was artificial, Xiaojin still felt as if he was stepping out of prison to see the light of day.
His nature was initially vile, but after decades of "Bunker Transformation," under the guidance of Old Jin and Evelyn, he had changed for the better.
When Wen Xishu brought Xiaojin to meet Nissen Yueyun again, and they returned to the dormitory, Xiaojin habitually exclaimed.
This exclamation brought everyone back several months.
Wen Xishu spoke first:
"Now that we're at the dormitory, this is a private environment, so there's no need to call me Dean Wen. I don't want a pathetic thick barrier between us."
Nissen chuckled and said:
"Actually, Xiaoyun and I don't think you've stopped being our friend just because you're the dean."
However, Yue Yun said:
"But outside, we must not lose our roles."
Xiaojin said:
"Wow! So happy that we're all together again."
Outside the dormitory, the marketplace was bustling, and in these days, Yue Yun and Nissen had also established their own sequences.
Their different personalities determined different sequences. Nissen's sequence had many similar versions, generally enhancing his self-recovery abilities and damage resistance, with increased speed and strength during sequence activation.
Simply put, he charges forward, attracting enemy firepower for his teammates.
Yue Yun leaned more towards explosiveness, sacrificing some attributes to enhance attack and speed.
The two often climbed the tower together and had developed a tacit understanding.
In the entire bunker, Yue Yun and Nissen had top-tier talents, and they understood well.
If their talents were in the top five percent of a story, they should enjoy their talents rather than foolishly fixate on that remaining four percent.
Wen Xishu, Xun Hui, the old principal... all these people were too strong, so they thought it better to shine brightly without aimlessly choosing targets that would bring them frustration.
Yue Yun used to be quite stubborn, but Nissen was naturally open-minded, and after spending time together, Yue Yun also became more open-minded.
Wen Xishu said:
"We're all our own people here, so why don't you talk about what happened after that great devourment?"
Xiaojin did not hold back:
"I recalled experiences from my past, thought of my grandpa and a group of very powerful people... they seemed to be whispering something in secret."
"At that time, I felt the same as I do now... and my grandpa was very young then."
"Later, I noticed that grandpa started getting older, but I still didn't change."
"I slowly realized that I had no parents, and grandpa... altered my memories."
"I began to fear grandpa, and the conductor... the person I met on the Chosen Train, he began to curse me, saying I was a lineage of a traitor."
"I didn't understand what was happening; he told me that my grandpa was a sinner and had betrayed Longxia."
"Because of him, the Dragon Hide Plan was delayed for a long time, and many variables arose."
"Later, I seemed to remember... I could wield many powers, but my powers... were largely taken away during a division."
"I became weak; it all seemed to be caused by grandpa, no, not only him but others too."
"After returning to the bunker, I started losing control; too many memories flooded in, and I couldn't distinguish who I truly was. Time and space were fractured in my eyes; it turned out... Aunt Evelyn had brainwashed me too many times."
"I didn't understand."
"After the great devourment ended, while you were fighting continuously in the Three Towers, grandpa told me I was a creation of the Heart of Fusion, naturally able to meld others' powers."
"Back then, he and two god-like beings infused multiple powers into me, trying to create a god that could end the chaotic times."
"I had to go through many stages, but during the stage named 'Gemini,' I was forcibly split into two."
"At the same time, because I had powers of both good and evil in me, the good part became an older brother, and the evil part was me."
"My nature was irritable; grandpa brought me back to the bunker to resolve this irascibility. But before that, I seemed to have been separated from him for a long time."
"Grandpa later confessed to me that all my subsequent memories were woven by Aunt Evelyn, meant to obscure my true nature."
"Grandpa always guided me with goodness, not because he feared I would become arrogant but to suppress the violence in my bones."
At this point, Xiaojin appeared sorrowful:
"But I was incompetent... after grandpa left, I was still consumed by my old temper and nearly... killed Brother Shu."
Wen Xishu said:
"You suddenly deciding to assassinate me was because you regained memories of the past?"
Xiaojin first shook his head, then nodded:
"I felt a very familiar aura, which awakened those feelings inside me."
"But strangely, it's gone now."
Wen Xishu squinted his eyes.
It wasn't Mr. Jin's directive, so Mr. Jin's disappearance had nothing to do with Xiaojin's assassination attempt.
Before the bunker appeared, Mr. Jin should have been in contact with Aries, as the eldest sister of the constellations...
It seems Aries had a way to collect each constellation's unique powers.
Combined with the Heart of Fusion, Xiaojin was then born.
Looking at it from this perspective... it seems Mr. Jin and Aries intended to fabricate a fusion version of the "Twelve Constellations."
But in the process of simulation, upon reaching Gemini, the result was forcibly split into two.
Thus, the plan encountered problems, and the good twin escaped, leaving with the Heart of Fusion.
