Lin Yi spent the afternoon with Nishino. After all, she was his first woman and had done a lot for him.
It wasn't until evening that Lin Yi left and went alone to the industrial district where he had fought a great battle with Rize Kamishiro in the past. This area was sparsely populated, so even if something unexpected happened, it wouldn't cause much of a stir.
"Right here."
Lin Yi murmured to himself, prepared and silently invoked the command to activate the system.
A rigid mechanical sound echoed in his mind.
"Ghoul world data collection complete. Coordinates successfully recorded..."
"Boom!"
A loud noise suddenly startled the young people playing on the street. Countless people looked up to the sky, and the calm night was suddenly cut by a thunderbolt.
Then, without warning, a strong wind rose, and the sea surged.
"The weather forecast said there would be no rain tonight, didn't it?"
"What era are we in? Can we still trust the weather forecast? Hurry back, it's about to pour."
The group of people quickly sought shelter from the rain.
The next moment, a heavy downpour suddenly descended.
Lin Yi stood on the rooftop, feeling the changes in the wind and rain. He could clearly sense that this was no ordinary typhoon; the thunderous roar sounded more like the howl of the heavens and earth.
Suddenly, Lin Yi felt a sharp pain in his mind, and the next moment he felt the presence of something the size of a candy bean, resembling a planet, in his mind.
That was the coordinates of the Ghoul world.
He suddenly received an explanation from the system. By completing the system's tasks, he could determine the position of this dimensional plane in the multiverse and open the gateway to travel between them.
The system's energy was already sufficient, and he could open the gateway to the next dimension at any time.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining the coordinates of the first world plane. Reward: System space."
Once again, a prompt from the system sounded in his mind, but Lin Yi didn't pay too much attention to it.
"System, if I choose to cross over, can I still come back? What about this place?"
Lin Yi suddenly asked, as he was now more concerned about this issue.
It's understandable that he would be concerned since he had already spent many years in this world and had things he cared about. He couldn't just abandon them easily.
"The time laws of the multiverse planes are not interconnected, or rather, when the host leaves, they haven't truly left; they enter a state of relative pause and will only resume when the host returns."
"Similar to parallel universes? No matter when I leave or how long I'm gone, I'll return to the moment I left, is that right?"
Lin Yi began to understand a bit and received confirmation from the system in his mind, which relieved him.
After all, in the vast multiverse, some worlds have time that is not valuable at all. If he were to travel to an immortal cultivation world, where one year is like a thousand years here, everything he knew here would become ancient history.
Once Lin Yi understood this, he became decisive and no longer hesitated.
He decided to leave tonight, but before leaving, he needed to make some preparations. He drove to the 22nd Ward, where Cochlea was located.
After the attack by the Aogiri Tree, the defense in this area had been strengthened. The newly appointed Cochlea Prison Warden was Juuzou Suzuya, who had also earned great achievements in the Battle of the Anteiku Raid.
For someone like Juuzou, who loved fighting and madness, Cochlea, where many death row inmates and terrifying ghouls were held, was a perfect fit, and her strength was more than enough to claim the position of prison warden.
The staff at Cochlea were surprised by Lin Yi's sudden visit, but he specifically instructed them to keep it quiet.
Under the pretext of forming a special operations team, he directly took a batch of brand new Quinque from there. Among them, there were six sets of "Arata" Quinques, as well as more than 20 sets of Quinques ranked S or higher.
In the entire CCG, only Lin Yi could take these weapons away with a single word.
Since becoming the CCG Director, Lin Yi had learned about some dark secrets, such as the underground three layers of Cochlea, where many powerful ghouls were held without being executed, and were even provided with food and nutrients to serve as a continuous source of RC cells.
Only here could so many high-level Quinques be stored.
Lin Yi loaded these weapons into his car, and although Cochlea originally wanted to arrange an escort, considering Lin Yi's title as the strongest investigator, he declined.
They didn't think too much about it since they all knew that this man possessed the title of the strongest investigator.
After driving away from there, Lin Yi waved his hand and stored all these Quinques into the system space, including his Jörmungandr.
In an instant, a list appeared in his mind.
At the same time, Lin Yi prepared some food, water, and other supplies, all of which were stored as well. He remembered vividly the hardship he experienced when he first crossed over to the Tokyo Ghoul world, barely having enough to sleep on park benches. So this time, he wanted to be better prepared.
After all the preparations were complete, Lin Yi returned to the rooftop of the industrial district. He silently invoked the command to open the passage.
There was no dramatic event as he imagined. Instead, everything in front of him suddenly distorted, and in that mysterious moment, everything seemed to freeze.
Even the raindrops falling from the sky slowed down, freezing in mid-air.
This was the result of the system opening the passage, where two dimensions connected and the laws of time gradually entered the state described by the system, a state of stillness.
"May everything go well."
Lin Yi muttered to himself, his steps unwavering.
After experiencing so much, he was no longer content with the status quo and longed for the feeling of becoming stronger.
