Chapter 66 Refined in an instant!
The messenger stopped what he was doing and said in a serious tone, "Let me formally introduce myself. I am a messenger from Liuguang Yiting."
"Hello, you two from the Starry Sky Train."
“What does Liuguang Yiting do?” Xing asked.
"Our Flowing Light Memory Court is an organization that follows the Star God of Memory, Fu Li, with the aim of preserving all the world's important memories within the Heaven of Good Vision, in order to fight against the ultimate destruction of the universe."
“I have come for your memories,” the messenger said. “I can sense that you all have special memories, and there will be more in the future... I need your memories.”
"Isn't that a bit too direct?" Xing pondered, then asked Zhou Yuan, "What do you think?"
"Look with your eyes."
"Don't misunderstand, I'm not a 'Memory Thief,' I won't steal your memories. We preserve memories by copying them," the messenger explained.
“Our philosophy is based on equivalent exchange,” she said, pointing to the broken mirror behind her. “This is the Garden of Oblivion. Entering it will help you awaken forgotten memories. The Garden of Oblivion will take what it wants and then give you something in return.”
"What reward?" Xing was so engrossed in this keyword that she completely ignored the memories she would have to pay for it.
"It depends on what you want, matter or light cones."
"What is the purpose of the light cone?" Zhou Yuan thought of his own emotional light cone.
"A light cone is a slice of a memory. By using it, you can gain access to that person's experience and knowledge from that period of time. Just like the video this lady mentioned earlier, I hadn't actually seen it, but someone in a light cone had. By using it, I learned the content of the video and was able to follow along."
"You mean, if I had a kung fu master's light cone, I could become a kung fu master after using it?" Xing asked.
“If the light cone contains all his memories from practice to mastery, that’s fine,” the messenger said.
"Wait a minute, haven't you seen that video?"
Xing looked back at Zhou Yuan, her brows furrowing. "She looks like a bad guy again."
"..."
"To allay your concerns, I have prepared two light cones as a gift. I hope you will like them."
As the messenger spoke, he reached into the mirror of the Garden of Oblivion and took out two light cones with a peculiar texture.
Unlike Zhou Yuan's light cone card, the light cone made by Liu Guang Yi Ting has images on it and is generally wrapped in a special plastic-like material, which can collide with the physical object.
"How do I use this?" Xing asked, holding the light cone.
"These two light cones are classified as four-star in the Memory Court, containing memories spanning a significant period of time, so they cannot be used lightly," the messenger said with a faint smile. "But don't worry, I have prepared a solution for you. You only need to..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Yuan grabbed the light cone and squeezed it so hard that the protective shell of the light cone shattered. Zhou Yuan's hand came into contact with the light cone, and he instantly lost consciousness!
When Zhou Yuan opened his eyes again and saw the scenery before him, he realized that he had returned to the Black Domain.
Before he could speak, Idrila appeared, but this time her color was much dimmer than when they last met.
"Why are you here again?" He observed Zhou Yuan for a while, then said, "I've sensed the one whose destiny has turned against me. He's started making moves again. Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, I just came in to take a look," Zhou Yuan explained.
But soon, he realized something was wrong.
Those whose fates diverge...A simulated universe!!
What a coincidence! I've been to the simulated universe twice, and coincidentally, those whose destinies diverge also appeared twice.
There are no deviants of destiny here! It's clearly Zhou Yuan who has acted too recklessly in the simulated universe!
He once cursed almost every star god, and another time he played along with Ahab for hundreds of years. Every time, he went against his destiny.
He was indeed punished by fate every time.
So, the traitor was myself?
Idrisra spoke solemnly: "Please be very careful. That traitor is very powerful, and you may not be his match."
"Um...okay." Zhou Yuan didn't dare say another word, afraid that Idrila would realize that the person who had strayed from his destiny was him.
"I almost got my boss killed, who can I complain to?"
As Zhou Yuan fell out of the dark domain, before he could even open his eyes, he felt a memory slowly surfacing in his mind.
That was the life of a Homo sapiens, a record of his journey from humble beginnings, step by step, surpassing countless others, and finally reaching the pinnacle of the planet.
An aura of unparalleled superiority emanated from Zhou Yuan. He opened his eyes, his gaze becoming both weathered and sharp.
"Zhou...Zhou Yuan, you're so scary." Xing took a slight step back.
How come his expression and demeanor completely changed when he closed his eyes? Possession?! It must be possession! We've been tricked!!
"Really?" Zhou Yuan quickly rubbed his face, suppressing his arrogant aura.
"This is...unbelievable! I knew I hadn't chosen the wrong person!" the messenger exclaimed happily.
"You seem surprised?" Zhou Yuan asked.
"Of course, in theory, there are only two possible outcomes of forcibly using the light cone: either one is being overwhelmed by the massive amount of memories and going insane, or the other is having one's body invaded by the memories within the light cone, resulting in a confused consciousness and being possessed by someone else," the messenger sighed.
"But you just... absorbed it and were able to control it on your own. This is the first time I've seen something like this in all these years."
Zhou Yuan smiled but didn't speak. He knew in his heart that his situation was entirely due to the Black Domain.
When one's mind reaches a certain extreme state, it will escape into the dark realm, where one's mind is not affected by any external factors. No matter how vast the memories are, one only needs to quietly wait for them to be digested by one's body.
No matter how powerful it is, it's just a memory, not consciousness, and it can't "drive away" Zhou Yuan's body on its own.
This situation reminded Zhou Yuan of the rabies cure cases from his previous life.
When rabies develops, the virus invades the human central nervous system, causing it to malfunction and cause all sorts of problems.
The body temperature was raised to a normal level, and the heart rate was increased... The method of successful treatment was exactly the same as Zhou Yuan's. The doctor simply unplugged the patient's "power supply". No matter how powerful the virus was, without something to control, it could only be defeated by the autonomous operation of the immune system.
"Then can I also..." Xing said, making a squeezing motion of the light cone.
"You should just listen to the messenger," Zhou Yuan shook his head.
The child is already mentally challenged; if we were to erase his memories using the light cone, what would become of him?
After teaching Xing the correct way to open the light cone, the messenger disappeared into the Garden of Oblivion, while the two quickly familiarized themselves with the power within the light cone.
As Pam's departure countdown slowly reached zero, the scenery outside the window shattered, and the train began to accelerate.
However, just a second before entering the jump state, a knocking sound suddenly rang in everyone's hearts.
Zhou Yuan turned his head and saw a short-haired young man wearing a black vest smiling and waving at him.
The young man clung to the car window, muttering to himself, "Damn it, we finally made it."
