Chapter 332: Helpful Diablo
Seeing Li Qing fleeing on the plane, Diablo couldn't help but feel a little angry:
He had clearly beaten the man to a pulp and thrown him into the meat mountain’s mouth…
How could he survive this?!
As expected, fate is against Diablo everywhere!
But it was also partly his own negligence:
Because his past self had fainted at this time, he had no idea when the earthquake stopped.
As a result, when he thought he had thrown Li Qing into the endless abyss, the earthquake stopped.
“How abominable!”
Diablo was upset, but he didn't regret it too much.
After all, no matter what, he successfully saved his past self and successfully achieved his most fundamental combat goal at the beginning -
Survive Li Qing's hands.
Diablo cannot use Ouroboros for the first 10 minutes after he goes back in time.
This period of time is Li Qing's only chance to defeat Diablo.
But now Lee Sin was being chased by Roshan and flying all over the sky, and he obviously couldn't turn around and pose a threat to Diablo.
Diablo can just wait patiently for the 10-minute cooldown of Ouroboros to pass, by which time the Crimson King will have the ability of "unlimited firepower" again.
Diablo no longer needs to be afraid of Li Qing, but Li Qing has to avoid him.
"I am now completely safe."
"However, my situation seems to be somewhat dangerous..."
After a moment of contemplation, Diablo couldn't help but think of his past self.
He stepped through the ruins covered with bricks and rubble, and carefully walked to the armored vehicle that had been half eaten away by the meat mountain:
The Diablo from the past was sleeping here.
His body was covered in horrific burns, and most of his black see-through bra was burned and stuck to his flesh.
With such a serious injury, Diablo in the past fainted like a dead pig, and even the occasional aftershocks could not wake him up.
"No, this is still too dangerous."
Diablo frowned tightly:
My past self is now completely unconscious and has no ability to protect himself.
The buildings on both sides of the street were full of cracks and the trees were shaky and it was unknown when they would collapse.
If I leave my past self in such a dangerous place without any care, what if I get buried alive by the aftershocks?
"Do you want me to help get 'me' out of the city and put me in a safer open area?"
Diablo was a little unsure.
Because of the existence of the paradox, he did not dare to change the past casually.
But if he thought about it carefully, since he didn't die this time, his behavior of helping him survive in the past should have been a part of the past.
"Let's save him..."
Diablo thought about it, and finally dragged Diablo out of the ruins.
He carefully protected "himself" and took him to the more open and safer area outside the city.
After walking a few steps, Diablo saw a car parked on the side of the road with its doors wide open.
The owner of the car was poisoned to death by the fungus of his youth, and even the residue was eaten away.
The car key is inserted into the keyhole and can be used at any time.
"That's great. It will be faster if we have a car."
"The shorter the time I spend with my past self, the better, to avoid him regaining consciousness and seeing me, which would lead to a paradox."
Thinking of this, Diablo immediately borrowed this ownerless car.
He put the unconscious "self" in the back seat, then sat in the driver's seat and started the engine with a quick movement.
Diablo drove along the rubble-strewn road all the way out of the city.
At the same time, he was thinking carefully in his heart:
"Is it enough to just send my past self to an open area outside the city?"
"Let me think... After I regained consciousness... it seemed like..."
Somehow this memory seems a little fuzzy.
But Diablo finally remembered:
By the way, Li Qing once threw me like a hammer.
The person I saw when I woke up was Li Qing. Later, he snatched away my important mobile phone and took me to a warehouse by the sea!
"etc…"
"Then why did I see Li Qing as soon as I woke up?"
"Could it be that Li Qing accidentally encountered "me" who was placed outside the city?"
"Yes, that should be it."
Diablo was also a little unsure.
Just like that, with tension and entanglement, he drove out of the city with his past self.
Once you get to the outskirts of the city, you'll see fewer buildings along the road.
And Diablo was just trying to find an open, flat surface to put his past self down.
On the road ahead of him, a very familiar bald head suddenly appeared:
"Get down, I need this car urgently."
※※※
At this time, Li Qing, the same Li Qing as before, was in urgent need of a mobile phone and a means of transportation.
But now there are bricks and rubble everywhere, and there is no one on the road, so it is not easy to borrow a mobile phone.
Li Qing is not Giorno, who has rich social experience. He does not have the professional skills to borrow a car when the owner is not around.
So he could only stand there and worry.
But at this moment, as if it were fate, a car happened to be driving towards him from the ruins of the city behind him.
Li Qing naturally couldn't let go of this hard-won opportunity.
He reached out and stopped the car.
The driver seemed to be a helpful person.
Seeing Li Qing holding the pistol high, he immediately stopped the car in a hurry.
"Get down, I need this car urgently."
Li Qing is blind now and he can't see the driver's face at all.
But this did not prevent him from hearing the driver's rapidly accelerating heartbeat.
Hearing the heartbeat that seemed to be frightened, Li Qing knew that he had probably borrowed the car.
Sure enough, after a moment of silence...
Perhaps it was because Li Qing's linguistic charm was too strong, the driver got out of the car obediently and walked away without saying a word.
"Wait!" Li Qing frowned, "There's a wounded person in your car, aren't you going to take him away?"
“…”
The driver stopped suddenly.
After being stunned for a moment, he slowly said in a hoarse and unpleasant voice:
"I don't know this man. I just rescued him from the ruins."
"If you're going to take my car, there's no way I can take him with me."
"this…"
Li Qing's face froze and he hesitated for a while.
But he finally chose to take on this little trouble:
"Okay, you can go now."
"I will take care of the injured in the car."
"kindness."
The driver nodded and quickly disappeared in a hurry.
He did not leave much impression on Li Qing.
In Li Qing's mind, he was just a good person who met by chance and was willing to help others.
But after the driver disappeared completely...
Li Qingcai suddenly realized it belatedly:
"Damn it! I didn't even notice..."
"I was so busy borrowing the car that I forgot to borrow the phone!"
※※※
The helpful driver drove away quickly.
After running several hundred meters, he estimated that Li Qing was not paying attention to him, so he stopped with a complicated expression:
"I see…"
"That' me' at that time actually appeared beside Li Qing in this way."
"No wonder I saw Li Qing when I woke up."
Diablo then remembered that he had been sitting in the car since he regained consciousness.
When he got out of the car, he was busy facing the piece of meat, and the car was immediately swallowed by the piece of meat.
So he had no memory of what the car looked like.
So he just felt vaguely that the interior of the car he found looked familiar, and he didn't realize that it was the same car.
"I should be waking up soon."
"Then that bastard Li Qing would snatch the all-important phone from me and call my companions on the spot, wasting a lot of time."
Recalling the past, Diablo's expression was a little subtle.
But he quickly calmed down:
"Anyway, at least the past is back on track."
"I was 'taken care' of by Li Qing in the past, so I won't be in danger again."
"I can then let go and do what I have to do now..."
Diablo raised his head and cast a dangerous look in the direction where the helicopter had flown.
The helicopter was obviously destroyed now, but he knew Li Qing must not be dead.
Li Qing is not dead, and he is still active alone in the past. This is the biggest hidden danger.
"I can use Ouroboros right now and defeat Lee Sin head-on."
"And that guy has a good brain. It won't be long before he figures out how to make use of the past."
"So I have to find that guy before he causes any trouble..."
Diablo thought seriously.
The past cannot indeed be changed.
But at the same time, there are "loopholes" in the past that can be hacked, and time travelers can still use the "loopholes" to plant seeds in the past.
One way to do this is to identify clues that already exist in memory and use them.
For example, the time bomb was planted:
Diablo remembered that 500 million was suddenly missing from his account, so he traveled back in time and spent the 500 million.
His actions do not conflict with his memories, so there is no paradox.
The other is to ensure that memory is not interfered with when doing things.
If human memory is compared to history:
It's like a time traveler goes back to the day when a historical figure died, and designs a plan to deceive everyone at that time, making the historical figure fake his death and get away with it on that day.
In the history books, that person still died on that day, but he was saved by a time traveler.
The time traveler saved a person in the past, but at the same time ensured that history remained unchanged.
This is the "loophole" in time .
Diablo had used the first method before, and had not yet used the second method.
There is a reason for this too…
First of all, it is difficult to find a "vulnerability" that can be exploited.
Secondly, exploiting a "loophole" is extremely dangerous.
If you want to take advantage of historical loopholes, you must be mentally prepared to trigger a time paradox at any time.
There is no guarantee that such an adventure will be successful, and one wrong step will lead to eternal damnation.
In addition, Ouroboros's crossing can only last for one hour each time, and the location of the crossing is locked next to Diablo in the past.
This means that Diablo has very limited space to move around in each time, and can do very limited things.
In addition, the Passion organization was managed as tightly as an iron barrel. He had no way of hiding it from the eyes of the past Diablo, and had no way of secretly borrowing the organization's human, material and financial resources.
This makes it more difficult to use the second method.
Of course, this difficulty also applies to Li Qing.
But no matter what, there are definitely ways to "change" the past.
What Diablo is most worried about now is that Lee Sin will take advantage of this time to make some arrangements in the past, just like the time bomb he prepared for Jotaro before.
"We can't let him act!"
"It's better to kill him right here—"
"Even if I can't kill him, I can't let him out of my sight!"
Thinking of this, Diablo could no longer sit still.
He decided to follow the direction the helicopter was flying in.
"There is no time to lose. I have to find another means of transportation as soon as possible."
Diablo acted quickly.
Unlike Li Qing who has no professional skills, he also masters advanced keyless car borrowing skills and does not need to sigh at the cars on the roadside.
This is not because the Dark Emperor needs to rely on stealing cars to make a living, but because he is cautious by nature and has deliberately trained his skills in this area in case there is no car available in an emergency.
And now, this trick was used by .
He quickly borrowed a motorcycle from the roadside and drove away.
Although it didn't take much time, Diablo still felt a little unhappy:
"It's still a bit delayed."
"Damn it, I wish I hadn't run into Li Qing just now and my car hadn't been taken away by Li Qing."
"I can crush that weak guy to death with just one finger, but in order to avoid a paradox, I have to swallow my anger and give him the car!"
"etc…"
Diablo suddenly realized:
He is a dark emperor...it seems...
His horse was snatched away by Li Qing again!
