Wen Yu quickly raised his right hand, and the watch on his wrist clearly indicated the exact time—just a series of dreamlike experiences had taken a total of 1 second...
No, counting the action of raising his hand, the recent experience must have been completed in an instant.
He glanced again at Lahar, who had his eyes tightly closed and appeared extremely fatigued, and Wen Yu swallowed hard.
Memories of Lin Na's description flashed in his mind.
“Divine beings...”
...
The atmosphere in the room felt somewhat awkward.
It wasn't until Lahar's coughing, reminiscent of a bellows, broke the awkwardness that the tension eased.
Wen Yu gently touched Lahar's forehead, which felt somewhat warm, and his weary expression seemed to speak of the cost of using his abilities just moments ago.
“Are you okay?”
Lahar shook his head gently, then took a deep breath before looking at Wen Yu.
“Are you here to pick me up?”
This question had just been asked by Lahar a moment earlier.
Wen Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly: “Yes, I’m here to pick you up. Do you want to come with me?”
Lahar's little head dove back under the covers, leaving only his big, dark eyes and full forehead exposed. After a moment, he nodded gently.
“I want to go with you.”
The trouble he had anticipated did not occur at all.
At this moment, Lahar perfectly matched Wen Yu's task!
Wen Yu slowly squinted his eyes.
“Do you know where I’m taking you?”
“I know!”
Lahar's answer was very certain.
“You're taking me to Huaxia, right?”
Wen Yu smiled and nodded: “Yes, we’re going to Huaxia. Do you know Huaxia?”
He put on a deliberately surprised, even somewhat exaggerated expression—this was just a way to amuse a child.
As expected, even though Lahar was extraordinary, he was still just a six-year-old child.
A proud expression, as if he had scored 100 on a test, appeared on Lahar's little face, and he proudly said to Wen Yu, “I saw it long ago! I saw you flying over from a snowy place. I know you came to pick me up. I even looked at where you are taking me; it's so beautiful, with so much delicious food, and there are no ugly monsters!”
Can he see...?
Wen Yu's expression flickered, and he revealed a gentler smile.
“Would you mind telling your brother what you saw?”
...
Lahar was still too young and had no educational experience—or rather, having lost his parents from a young age, it was unlikely that Lahar had received any form of education. Thus, his language expression was somewhat muddled, but Wen Yu managed to understand roughly what Lahar was trying to say.
Lahar could see anything related to himself!
When Wen Yu received the communication from Tang Haofei, Lahar had already seen what Wen Yu looked like. Even more so, since the Huaxia agents stationed in India had transmitted Lahar's information back to Beijing, Lahar had already seen what the gathering place in Beijing looked like.
Just as Lahar had mentioned—there was so much beauty, so much food, and no ugly monsters!
In a sense, this was omniscience...
Along with the earlier “wish machine.”
The title of “divine being” was not an exaggeration—divine beings imply omniscience, imply omnipotence...
Wen Yu, having roughly sensed Lahar's abilities, took a deep breath but maintained his smile, continuing to speak to Lahar.
“Then, shall I take you with me now? Are you willing?”
Lahar nodded vigorously, but then his brows furrowed, and a hesitant expression appeared on his face as he carefully asked Wen Yu, “Can I bring Dijang and Shima with me?”
“Of course, once you reach Huaxia, you can bring all your friends over.”
Wen Yu told a white lie—given Lahar's abilities, he believed Lin Haifeng would fulfill this wish, which was not too much to ask for.
However...
Wen Yu licked his lips, a fleeting look of deep greed flashing in his eyes.
Whether or not to hand over this child to Lin Haifeng was still up for debate; at least, Wen Yu wanted to observe Lahar's skills in detail before making a decision.
