You call this the mastermind?

Merlen was a little confused by all this.

But after thinking about it, he simply gave up thinking about the principle and reason of this change. Anyway, no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't figure it out.

Seeing the follower skeleton coming over to look at "it" in the coffin, Mellen patted its forehead and motioned it to sit in front of the sarcophagus with him.

The skeleton was very obedient and did it honestly.

Mellen then began to meditate and communicate with the spirit.

This living skeleton and the changing time and space around him were unexpected encounters. His original purpose of coming here was just to meet the two female savages.

So now that everything has returned to normal, Mellen naturally has to do the right thing.

Originally, he suspected that if the skeleton came back to life, he might not be able to use it to meet the two female savages.

But it turned out not to be the case.

As he outlined the full picture of the white jade skeleton in his mind, his mind fell into a dark state again.

When he came to his senses, he had come to a river covered with heavy snow.

However, unlike last time, the skeleton also followed...

"Isn't this its spiritual world?"

Meren raised his eyebrows when he saw this.

Visualize the other party, connect with the other party's spirit, and then enter its spiritual world.

This guess makes sense.

And the two female savages in the spiritual world are very likely to be the two personalities of the skeleton.

This was a suspicion he had once had.

Now it seems that the second guess has become impossible.

The first guess also seems to be a little untenable.

And then, some traces and clues found here made him more and more convinced that this place is the same as before, another different world!

The clues are some clothes, red, blue, green, and purple, which are messily discarded in the surrounding ice and snow. The styles are different, but the general outline does not deviate from the appearance of the student uniforms of Fort Saint Grant.

Melen did not forget that when he saw the two female savages last time, they were not wearing clothes, and they copied the clothes he wore.

And everything here now seems to be that during the time he was away, the two female savages were bored and kept modifying clothes, but the failed ones were thrown all over the floor...

This made him suddenly have an idea.

Before, they didn't wear clothes, maybe because there were no outsiders in this place, and they were not afraid of the cold.

Now that outsiders have come, they put on clothes, but they keep changing around this style...

Does this mean that they have only seen this kind of clothes and nothing else?

Or, is this the first time clothes have appeared here?

"If the world where the sarcophagus is located is the future, then why can't this place be the past?"

The emergence of this speculation made him stunned.

What surprised Melen even more was that when he realized this possibility, the skeleton behind him disappeared inexplicably!

"What's going on?"

There were more and more strange things, and Melen was a little dazzled.

He searched nearby for a while, but couldn't find the missing skeleton, and didn't even see the footprints of it leaving.

However, something that happened not long after made him vaguely aware of the skeleton's current whereabouts.

At this time, he was in an open space between a river and a forest, surrounded by snow. Except for the sound of running water, it should have been quiet.     A beautiful silver-haired girl in a black robe suddenly ran out from the depths of the forest covered with white frost.

After seeing Mellen, the expression on the girl's face was completely different from the last time. Instead, she looked at him boldly, with a curious and slightly shy look, as if she had received some signal and came to find him.

Then, she hesitated and actually moved her steps behind Mellen, and then raised a delicate and white little hand and gently pinched the corner of his clothes...

"You are..."

Mellen probably understood something.

This action is exactly the same as the skeleton just now!

What made him a little confused was that before he could say anything else, another silver-haired girl appeared in the depths of the forest not far away.

Unlike the one behind her who was approaching boldly, the other person stopped after running to the edge of the woods, and then hid most of his body behind the tree, only sticking out a small head with long, smooth silver hair, looking over vigilantly and fearfully.

After seeing the girl who looked exactly like her and was currently in an intimate posture with Melen, a trace of resentment flashed across her face.

As if her lover had been robbed.

The one behind Melen turned his head and called out to her, the syllables were vague and incomprehensible.

As a result, after hearing it, the other person just shook his head, and his expression inexplicably became full of grievance and grief.

Then she turned and ran away.

Then, the eyes of the one behind him looked at Melen, and there was a faint pleading look.

As if he hoped that he could catch up and find the one who had just run away.

"Why don't you go find it yourself, but have to drag me?"

Melen couldn't help asking.

As a result, the other person just blinked, looking puzzled.

It seemed that she didn't understand what he was saying.

Melen had no choice but to take her with him and walk towards the depths of the forest.

During this time, he wondered what was going on.

"If this is the past, then the skeleton that traveled from the future should have merged with the one behind him. In other words, this female savage is the skeleton's past body, the mother in the mouth of the Holy Spirit."

"After the two merged, she obviously inherited the skeleton's memories and emotions, but the skeleton seemed to remember nothing. The most impressive thing might be me."

"And now she is just a blank sheet of paper, and she doesn't know anything, so she followed the relatively complicated emotions and memories of the past and came to find me."

"If she is the mother, then the one just now should be the father she created?"

"The Holy Spirit said that the father and mother look basically the same."

"In this case... am I not regarded as a third party by the father?"

Thinking of this, Melen turned his head and looked at the "mother" following behind him, and found that the other party was looking at him curiously.

After being caught by Melen, she did not avoid his eyes, but boldly looked at him.

In a blink, the pair of purple eyes were pure and beautiful, with many intimate emotions in them. Inexplicably, Melen even sensed a trace of affection and attachment like a child seeing his parents.

"Could she think of me as her father?"

This thought suddenly flashed through Melen's mind.

Whether in the previous life or in this world, there is a saying that whoever a newborn baby sees when it opens its eyes will be regarded as its parents.

And the skeleton that has been sleeping for who knows how many years obviously has no past memories.

Isn't it very similar to the reasoning of this saying that I woke it up?
