Rocot: Reborn

Ellie smiled slightly, that smile contained too much unknown information, "Yes, a proposal that will allow you to take everything back, and even more."

Rocot responded coldly, "Go on."

Ellie took a deep breath, as if preparing to narrate something extremely important. "I can help you go back to the past. No, to be more precise, I can create a parallel universe, a universe that you have never lost. There, you are still the monarch of the Dark Night Empire, and no one can defeat you."

Rokod's heart skipped a beat. He could hardly believe his ears. Going back to the past? Rebuilding the Dark State Empire? How could this be possible...

But under Ellie's expectant gaze, he finally asked the question, "How?"

"The technology of the Holy Light Gate is not a product of this era, and may even be beyond the times." Ellie looked at Roccod and said slowly, with a hint of pride in her tone, "It is the product of several super-generation technologies. Its biggest secret is not that it can lead to another universe, but that it can reverse time."

As Roccod listened to Ellie's description, his heart was filled with great emotion. He knew that if this was true, then the so-called "Gate of Holy Light" was definitely a core device that could break the world order.

He suppressed his inner excitement and asked expressionlessly, "What do you want?"

"Your power." Ellie answered without hesitation, "We can help you go back to the past and take back your era, but in return, we need your help."

There was a sly light in Rocot's eyes. He knew that he needed an ally, and the woman in front of him might be the chess piece that helped him return to the top.

"I can be the shadow behind you, manipulating the invisible hand to influence the course of history." Roccod's tone became a little cold, "But I need to know all the plans, Ellie."

Ellie smiled slightly, as if she had already expected Rocot's answer. "Of course, Your Majesty. Our goal is to change this world, and your participation will be the key to changing the future order."

Rocot did not reply immediately. He needed some time to think about this proposal and how to utilize the power of the Holy Light Gate.

"Of course you need time to think about it." Ellie saw what he was thinking, "But please remember, time waits for no one. If you are willing to join, the power of the Holy Light Gate will be at your disposal."

"I accept." Roccod quickly decided on this proposal, because no one knew better than him how the game of time could reverse the universe. He stood up and looked at the dilapidated laboratory. He knew that his journey of revenge had just begun.

"We will be the behind-the-scenes manipulators of this world." Roccod extended his hand to Ellie. He knew that from this moment on, they would no longer be simple collaborators, but shadows walking side by side in the dark night.

Ellie slowly held Rocot's hand, and the touching of their palms seemed to mark the conclusion of a shadow covenant. A new era, a new secret empire, slowly opened in their hands...

As Ellie explained, Roccod had a vague understanding of the "Gate of Light" - which might be the key to reversing the future. The Gate of Light is the ultimate product of super-era technology based on the theory of multiple universes. From the first day of its birth, it was labeled as "Pandora's Box", and even caused countries to hunt down and sanction scientists who studied the project.

According to Ellie's description, Roccod knew that this super machine led by the super brain "Athena" was a closed world composed of multiple independent spaces stacked together. There, the flow of time was controlled by humans, and there were multiple time and space that could be entered and exited at will.

The most important thing is that this world can extract a person's consciousness and memory from the current timeline through gene combination technology, and inject it into another identical body that has not yet formed an intelligent consciousness. In other words, if a person's consciousness enters this world, he can return to his peak timeline.

"I see. So you want me to enter that world?" Roccod looked at Ellie like an owl looking at a mouse. "I shouldn't just be repeating my life there, right?"

"Of course not. Your life experience is a crucial part of this plan. My idea is to use the 'anchor point' in your memory to subtly guide the direction of this time and space." Ellie said excitedly, "We want you to become the 'Shadow' of this world."

The so-called Shadow is the name given by Ellie to the controller of the Holy Light Gate Project. She explained to Roccod that the Shadow is not the creator of the world, but a guide who exists in a life form that transcends time and cognition. He can quietly influence the development of reality until it is finally rewritten into what he needs.

After listening to Ellie's outline of the plan, Rocot fell silent. He began to seriously consider the proposal.

For him, entering the "Gate of Holy Light" to influence the direction of another world is not difficult to understand. It is equivalent to tampering with the timeline. With his past understanding of time and space - although it is a world where magic and technology coexist, it is not common sense in this universe - it is not impossible to change the direction of history. But the difficulty lies in what Ellie calls the "anchor point". He must find some characteristics of his past self as the key to open that new world.

This was not a difficult task for Roccod, but he still didn't know why Ellie wanted him, a shadow man, to influence the direction of another world.

Roccod doesn't think that the "Gate" organization represented by Ellie has no purpose.
