Chapter 121: Chapter 121: An Uncertain Future

Leng Pan calmed down as she lay in the arms that made her feel safe. For her, Lu Zhen’s arms were the safest place in the world.

No matter what happened, she felt that she could always count on them to make her feel safe.

“I had a very strange dream. I dreamt that….” Leng Pan shared everything she had seen in the dream.

After she was done, she added, “Hubby, I don’t think that was merely a dream. I suspect it’s part of the ’memories’ that voice in the mansion kept talking about.”

“It’s possible. When you touched the meteorite tonight, did you experience anything unusual?” Lu Zhen asked as he stroked the woman’s back to comfort her emotions.

“Yes, but it was a voice that kept repeating the same message asking me, well, Commander Leng, to find Project Rebirth. Whatever that means.” Leng Pan replied while also thinking about what that message really meant.

“Mmm…I got a different message. It said I was Commander Leng’s protector and should protect her at all costs. If that commander Leng really is you, then I have already started the job.” Lu Zhen replied with a snarky remark at the end to lighten the mood.

“Hahaha…indeed, you are doing a good job even without such reminders. But, hubby, what do you think is really happening?

That war I saw in my dream, if it really is a memory, then it means that something happened in the past.

It also confirms the claims of that AI voice in the mansion that said the jade bangle I found and whatever was inside came from the distant past.

In that case, why did the situation seem even more precarious than what is happening with the zombies right now?

Not only were there zombies, but all kinds of other monsters would make a person vomit the food they had eaten for the last couple of days.” Leng Pan asked with curiosity and also complained about the aesthetics of the monsters in her dream.

“I feel that something similar to what is happening now must have happened in the past. Or, to be more precise, something worse had happened.

But at the moment, we are clueless as to what it was but based on the information in your dream, we can conclude two things.

First, we won’t just be fighting zombies in the future, but also the monsters you saw. Second, some humans would ally themselves with those monsters and zombies and fight their fellow humans.

It is possible that what is happening now is not a coincidence but a well-planned attack to weaken human power.

History is repeating itself.” Lu Zhen analyzed everything according to the information Leng Pan had collected from the dream combined with the two messages they had received from the meteorite.

“The biggest question is, why is such a significant part of history missing from the records? Why have we never seen or read a book that contains such crucial information?

What was the purpose of hiding it so much that it seemed to have been completely erased?” Leng Pan also wondered aloud.

Indeed, this was a question that Lu Zhen had found difficult to comprehend after hearing his wife narrate her dream. Why did it feel like that part of history was deliberately erased? What was the purpose of doing so?

These were questions they found difficult to answer because the information they had was very limited.

“We can only hope to find that project rebirth the voice in the meteorite talked about. Maybe with it, we can get more information and gain a better understanding of what was happening.” Lu Zhen replied to his wife who had her brows furrowed in worry.

He used his fingers to smooth out the lines creasing her forehead.

“Don’t worry, Baby. I believe that for that space to find you among billions of people in this world and to just happen to recognize you like you own it is not simply a coincidence.

You must have something that guided you to it. What’s more, I have a feeling that we cannot be defeated by zombies or the apocalypse.

However, we have to work harder. It seems that this apocalypse, zombies, and lack of food and medicine are going to be the least of our worries in the future.” Lu Zhen had hit the nail on the head through his superior analysis skills.

What awaited this world in the future was more devastating than the apocalypse. And Leng Pan, together with Lu Zhen had to take control and rise above the apocalypse.

“From what I saw in that dream, there won’t be a place for weaklings in this world, everyone will have to stand up and fight. Otherwise, there won’t be any hope.

But with the people so used to peace, taking up weapons and going to war, especially fighting with unfamiliar entities like those monsters and zombies will be challenging psychologically for many people.” Leng Pan continued to analyze her thoughts.

“That’s true, but once they realize that if they don’t take up arms their loved ones will disappear one by one, then you will experience the potential of human beings.

A human being can only be defeated if they have no motivation, but imagine seeing me or any other person you care about threatened with death by enemies every single day.

What would you do?” Lu Zhen asked as an example to help Leng Pan gain some hope in humanity.

The first thought that came to Leng Pan’s head when she heard that was to cut off the head of whoever or whatever threatened her husband.

She would never allow anyone or anything to take him away from her.

Lu Zhen felt the aura of the woman in his arms change and become as sharp as an unsheathed blade. If people who didn’t know her encountered her in such a state, they would probably be scared to death.

At that moment, he almost called her ’Commander Leng’.

“Exactly. You understand now why no matter what threat humans face, they will always overcome it. Not because of the hate they have for such a situation, but because of the love they have for their family and friends.” Lu Zhen reassured his wife with the most logical explanation.
