So Lin Chen didnât think much about it and immediately shook his head, saying, âIâm sorry, but Iâm afraid Iâm not interested.â
âOh?â Chronoa said disappointedly, âThis is a chance to become a god. Donât you have any interest? If you agree, I can teach you laws of time, and soon your strength will be on par with God of Destruction.â
Hearing this, Lin Chen was quite envious, but unfortunately, he wasnât able to enjoy it.
âIâm sorry, but I really have no interest.â
âHmm!â Chronoa pouted in frustration, âDonât be so quick to refuse. Itâs rare to find someone who can wield the power of time and space⊠How about this, you can start as a reserve member, and when you become interested, we can make it official.â
It can be made official just like that?
Lin Chen rolled his eyes and refused again, âSupreme Kai of Time-sama, thank you for the invitation, but I really have no interest.â
And also he didnât dare toâŠ.
Lin Chen silently muttered inwardly.
Heâs afraid to do it, even if heâs tempted, because he knows that accepting the invitation will lead to the system erasing him.
âSighâŠ.Is this really not going to work?â Chronoa propped up her chin with one finger and suddenly said, âIf thatâs the case, how about becoming my mercenary? Itâs rare to find someone who has the power of time and space. If you donât help me, I really wonât be able to find anyone else!â
âA mercenary?â Lin Chen was taken aback.
Chronoa explained, âYes, when I need someone to restore the order of time, you can come and help. As a reward, I can erase your crime of time-traveling.â
Lin Chen frowned and didnât immediately reply.
Seeing that he didnât immediately refuse this time, Chronoa thought that there was a chance and continued to sweeten the deal: âHey hey, I can teach you some more techniques about the power of time and space. These are things that only the God of Time can learn! How about it? How about it? Isnât this offer generous enough? If you donât agree, Iâll be angry!â
Lin Chenâs eyes suddenly lit up. If he becomes a mercenary, it seems like it wouldnât violate the systemâs requirements.
âMiss Chronoa, since youâre so sincere, I agree to your request,â Lin Chen said without any shame.
âWhew!â
Finally, seeing Lin Chen relent, Chronoa breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, two figures suddenly appeared next to Lin Chen out of nowhere.
As soon as Lin Chen turned his head, he recognized them immediately.
East Supreme Kai Shin, and his Attendant Kibito?
As soon as he saw Lin Chen, Kibito pointed at him and said, âThere he is! Are you the one whoâs been interfering with time and space over and over again?â
âGet lost!â
Before Lin Chen could say anything, Chronoa lifted her hand and spread out her five fingers towards the two of them.
The next moment, Kibito and the East Supreme Kai disappeared together.
To Lin Chen, it was as if someone had hit the rewind button for them.
âAlright, Iâve reversed their time, so they wonât bother you anymore. But theyâll be back in three minutes and twelve seconds.â
Chronoa took out a golden ring and handed it to Lin Chen. âThis is the Time Ring. With it, you can travel to the end of time and it can also let me contact you.â
Lin Chen nodded and put on the golden Time Ring.
âWell then, Iâll contact you when I need you. AndâŠâ Chronoa said and was about to leave.
Lin Chen quickly stopped her. âSupreme Kai of Time-sama, what about the reward you promised me?â
Chronoaâs figure, which had already begun to blur, suddenly became clear again, and she smacked her head, exclaiming: âOh, I almost forgot!â
She pointed at Lin Chen and a red light shot into his forehead.
In an instant, Lin Chen felt like something had been added to his mind. Upon closer inspection, he realized they were a few techniques for using the power of time.
âAlright, Iâve given you what I promised. Take your time to study itâŠOh, Iâll give you another item as a special reward! Interfering with other timelines is already a serious crime, and bringing people from other worlds is an even greater one. Iâve wiped the slate clean for you this time.â
âWell then, goodbye!â
This time, Supreme Kai of Timeâs figure turned into a colorful light and disappeared in front of Lin Chen.
After the other party left, Lin Chen remained stunned in place.
What did Supreme Kai of Time mean just now?
Bringing people from other worlds?
But I didnât do that?
Whatâs going on?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Lin Chenâs mind.
Could it beâŠ
The next moment, he reached into the system space and pulled out the Hoi-Poi Capsule that Bulma from the 228th world gave him.
With a bang, the capsule opened and something that looked like a coffin burst out of it.
âThis isâŠâ
Lin Chenâs eyes lit up as he immediately recognized the object in front of him â it was Dr. Geroâs hibernation chamber for carrying Androids!
The hibernation chamber came with a glass cover, and through the glass, Lin Chen saw Android 18, or rather, Lazuli!
âWhat the hell, how did she end up here?â
Lin Chen never imagined that Lazuli would be hiding in the Hoi-Poi Capsule.
But wasnât it impossible for the Hoi-Poi Capsule to hold living things?
How could this beâŠ
AnywayâŠ
Thinking of the Supreme Kai who appeared earlier, Lin Chen grabbed the hibernation chamber and left the place with Lazuli.
In the wilderness outside the capital city of Planet Vegeta, Lin Chen appeared while carrying the hibernation chamber.
With a thud, he placed the hibernation chamber on the ground.
Lin Chen circled around the chamber and found the start button.
After a mechanical sound, the hibernation chamberâs door opened.
After a while, Lazuli, who originally looked as if she was sleeping, slowly opened her eyes, sat up, and looked at Lin Chen.
âLazuli, I need an explanationâŠâ
Lazuli completely ignored Lin Chen. She just glanced at him, stood up from the hibernation chamber, and walked out to take a look outside.
âThis doesnât look like Earth? Is this your world?â
âLazuli!â
Lazuli turned her head and said, âI asked for Bulmaâs help. She has my controller and the blueprints of the hibernation device. As long as the controller is activated, my functions will stop. When I stop, I am no different from a machine and can also enter a Hoi-Poi capsule.â
âThatâs not what I asked⊠Why did you want to come here?â Lin Chen asked.
Lazuli looked at Lin Chen and said, her voice coldl, âIâve told you my reasons before. I want to see other worlds.â
Lin Chen stared at her for a while and helplessly said, âAlright, anyway, I donât have a way to send you back for now.â
Sending Lazuli back would take at least two Time Points, but Lin Chen only had one point now, so he has no choice but to accept reality.
âLetâs go. This is Planet Vegeta, the homeland of the Saiyans. Iâll take you to have a look.â
âPlanet Vegeta? I remember Bulma said that Planet Vegeta was destroyed by Frieza?â
âThatâs your world. In my world, Planet Vegeta is fine, and Frieza was killed by me a long time ago.â
âIt seems like I really came to another world.â Lazuli smiled slightly.
The two then flew towards the direction of the capital city.
