Chapter 215: The Candidate

“I thought I had wandered to an ordinary galaxy, but 1 didn’t expect to hit the jackpot…”

Lone Wolf’s face was filled with interest.

His passion for space exploration had always been extremely strong. Even after more than 500 interstellar explorations, his passion had never waned.

Based on what he had discovered in those alien ruins, he could have lived a few lifetimes without worrying about food and clothing. He did not have to explore the unsafe space.

However, his love for the unknown in the starry sky had supported him until now.

The starry sky also reciprocated his enthusiasm. Before most Milky Way civilizations noticed, he found the remaining Watchers.

It was as shocking as his first contact with the native civilization. If news spread, it would be enough to shake the entire Milky Way.

After the Ring Crisis was resolved, the Prophet of the Watcher led his remaining clansmen and disappeared from the Milky Way.

At that time, everyone thought that the last batch of Watchers would die out over a long period of time because they seemed to have lost everything.

In fact, many people had tried to look for signs of the Watcher, but they found nothing. The group of lost idealists had really disappeared from the Milky Way as if they had vanished into thin air.

In the interstellar era where information exchange was extremely frequent, the current Milky Way had gradually forgotten the existence of such a lost empire. The place where the Watcher was mentioned the most was a popular book—The Chronicles of the Lost Empire.

It recorded the story of the lost empire that had once appeared in the Milky Way. As for the Watcher, most of the places it was mentioned were used as background plates for the Administrator and self-destructed in the Ring Crisis.

Even their survivors fought at the last moment of the Ring Crisis and were prepared to sacrifice everything to solve the problem they brought.

But in the end, it was the Administrator who shone brightly in this crisis, and the Watcher was just a redeemer who brought an end.

They weren’t remembered. They were just pinned on the wall of shame in history as negative examples of the exploration of the void realm.

“Did that Great Prophet also consider this matter and keep the entire remnant civilization a secret?”

Lone Wolf was rather curious about this. He enjoyed discovering traces of such lost civilizations. This was his motivation to explore the cosmos.

Taking advantage of the fact that his Khan guards had yet to come, Lone Wolf planned on making the best use of his time to explore the area.

“It’s been a while since the Ring Crisis. 1 wonder if the Great Prophet is still alive… No, he has the technology of the lost empire. It’s not a problem for him to live forever…”

Just as Lone Wolf was thinking about how to meet this historical figure, a communication message was sent to his spaceship. It came from the spaceships of the lost empire docked in the galaxy.

Lone Wolf didn’t expect his spaceship to fly away from the lost empire’s spaceship. Perhaps he would have been discovered long before he strolled into the galaxy.

However, this kind of opportunity to communicate with the lost empire was rare. As long as it was not some kind of get-lost answer, he felt that he could deal with it.

Therefore, he picked up the call. At the same time, he quickly chose his words in his mind. Even if he could not personally go to the planet to take a look, he had to strive to obtain some information.

However, before he could speak respectfully, the other side of the communication said to him, “You’re here, Chosen One from the Prophet’s prophecy. Since you’re here, it means that everything is fate.”

“Come in and have a seat. The Prophet has been waiting for you for a long time.”

The communication was cut off for a while, and before Lone Wolf could fully understand the content, he saw something outside the porthole and widened his eyes.

The spaceships of the lost empire that seemed to have never moved since the beginning of time actually opened up a path for him, allowing him to see the protected emerald planet more directly.

“What the… First, it’s the successor of the Great Khan, and now it’s the Chosen One of the Prophet… Isn’t what happened to me during this period too legendary?”

Lone Wolf was already somewhat dumbfounded by this scene. He felt that his experience was something that even interstellar novels wouldn’t dare to write about. Perhaps there wasn’t a more sci-fi story than this.

But after the shock, he quickly calmed down and flew towards the emerald planet without hesitation.

He didn’t think that the lost empire would mobilize so many people just to fool him. Moreover, if these lost fleets really wanted to deal with him, he wouldn’t even have a place to escape. He would die under the saturated firepower.

Therefore, he naturally accepted the sudden identity of the Prophet’s Chosen One and prepared to meet the legendary Prophet.

Far away from here, Hawkeye Khan, who was still planning how to use his current influence to shake the lost heritage, suddenly shivered.

“Why do 1 have a bad feeling? Will this plan fail?” He frowned, trying to figure out where the problem would be in the schedule full of words in front of him.

“Could it be that my enemy is making a move… Forget it, I shouldn’t worry about this for now. He’s probably looking for help with his touristic attitude, right?”

“But with his sloppy appearance, can he find a strong backer? Like my void realm mentor?”

Hawkeye Khan disagreed.

Although he had already tried his best to view his opponent as a level higher than him, finding help and backing was not something that could be obtained casually.

He didn’t believe that anyone could be so lucky.

However, there were unlucky people in the world, and naturally, there would be lucky ones.

Lone Wolf had already left the spaceship and set foot on the reclusive planet.

The name of this emerald planet was given to him by the holy servant who guided him because the prophet lived in seclusion here before saving his people in the Ring Crisis.

To them, this was already the fourth Holy Land other than the Emerald Tomb, Walled Garden, and Pure Treasure.

And after a while, Lone Wolf finally met the legendary Prophet, an elder in his twilight years.

Even though they were of completely different races, Lone Wolf could tell from the various details that this Prophet wasn’t immortal.

The Prophet saw him and asked him to sit down. Then, he asked the others to leave, leaving the two of them sitting opposite each other in the empty hall.

After that, the prophet threw the Book of Holy Words to the side without any grace. He sat opposite Lone Wolf in an extremely unrestrained manner and said, “I’m Zachlan, the so-called Prophet. You’re quite lucky to be the first to come here.. Are you interested in becoming a Chosen One?”
