Chapter 1395 Answer

Chapter 1395 Answer

"Are you... a researcher of some sort?" Tony asked Ning.

"No," Ning answered. "I just have the answers is all."

Tony stepped closer, no longer thinking of going back to the cabin to rest. "Tell me, what is going on? What is the real answer that you know?"

Ning thought for a minute and answered, "Do you believe in the existence of souls and reincarnations?" he asked.

"Soul? Do you mean like an afterlife? Some cultures have that I hear," Tony said. "Why do you ask?"

"No, this is completely different. I'm asking if you know about this because it is much easier to explain everything once you understand souls exist."

Ning started explaining how Zurin's treasures existed. While he didn't exactly tell them anything about Zurinus and what he had done to make the entire world believe in him, he mentioned everything about planetary wills and the presence of some different energy that humans could not exist.

He told the man that such energy converged into a single point where the Will of the planet, which had not manifested yet, formed items based on what existed in the world already.

Hearing such a wild and yet simple explanation, Tony didn't know if he wanted to believe it at all or not. It all just seemed so... easy. Surely the answers were not that easy.

Tony thought for a bit and Tim sat down as well, trying to make sense of what he had just been told.

Jasmine thought while she stood, but unlike the two scholars, she didn't trust it much. She had been brought up in childhood with Zurinus' teachings, and as a result, she believed in him a lot more than she did Ning.

Even though a logical part of her mind did tell her that Ning knew a lot more than she could imagine, it was still hard for her to believe whatever Ning said wholeheartedly.

"And the world just has a soul, is it?" Tony asked slowly. "Like it can tell what is going on?"

Seeing the beaten and bloodied man walk around as though nothing had happened made the people not only confused but slightly worried as well.

Some thought of approaching the man but before they could, Tony walked away from them to his cabin. Even as he did, he looked at his watch once more.

The dial had turned to White at some point during the past few minutes, meaning nothing of importance was going to happen for the foreseeable future.

However, he could have sworn his watch had glowed blue at some point. Had he somehow been mistaken?

Back in the lounge, Jasmine looked at Ning. "Were you telling him that stuff about planets and souls just to make stuff up or do you actually believe that is true?" she asked.

"I don't believe that is true," Ning said. "I know that is true."

"Sounds stupid though," Jasmine said.

"More stupid than Zurinus?" he asked.

Jasmine nodded. "Of course," she said. "Zurinus came out and said he did it. It is written in the history books."

"That's true," Tim added. "Zurinus had in fact said that quite frequently in all the history books I've scoured."

"Well, I can't argue there," Ning said with a sigh. "Forget about it. You guys wanna go get something to eat? I'm going over to the dining area."

"Sure, I can do with some tea," Jasmine said and walked up front with the two men following behind her.

They remained in the Zeppelin for the next few hours before they could see the spread-out large islands in the distance, all clustered together as though haphazardly.

They had arrived in the Cogonian Archipelago.
