Beng San, I have an unfinished date with her

"It's...[Tianhui]!"

"Su? How could it be? I didn't build his soul?"

"From... [Box of Memories]?"

It's a bit strange, this time the field of thought acceleration...even Alicia as the administrator has not escaped.

She opened her arms in preparation for the sight of the jumping children.

The moment he was thinking, the picture began to change in that part of his divided thinking.

Connected to far away places.

A figure gradually becomes clear from overlapping shadows, just like the transition of a game.

A slender gray-haired man sat on an endless field of fallen leaves, surrounded by lush and illusory woods.

Only the huge tree behind him seemed real.

"Are you...Su? Su, the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire, are you still alive?"

"Ok?"

Su, who was leaning against the big tree, realized something was wrong.

"Long...your memory, is it... again?"

Long walked towards him.

"Well...I lost my memory. I don't know why. According to the information I got, it should be caused by dealing with the Herrscher of the End 5 years ago."

Su stood up and hugged Long, who was approaching.

"When I woke up and saw Kevin, I thought he was the only one who survived. Then I saw the information that made me think so even more."

"However, I want to disappoint you Su. My understanding and impression of you are limited to very thin information and the illusion I created by imitating your power. The appearance of that famous doctor... so..."

Su was surprised when he heard Long talking about Kevin. There was no doubt that he used a trap to seal Kevin, who accepted it, in the depths of the Quantum Sea. In that case, what Long saw should be a person with Kevin's memory. Dolls and the like, the previous generation had this technology, and if they were the creations of Dr. Mebius, they could do it.

Su nodded: "It doesn't matter, I can help you restore your past memories."

"Actually, this is also the backdoor I left in your [Box of Memories]. If you hadn't simulated using my ability, Long, I wouldn't have been able to receive the signal, and I searched for the coordinates of the [Box of Memories] before I found you. , fortunately [Box of Memories] recognized my consciousness signal."

"Looking now, what's even more fortunate is that I was responsible for putting you into the dormant chamber in the end, leaving a backdoor, otherwise something big might have happened."

"Ok?"

Long expressed doubts.

"A big event? What a big event? According to the outside world's generation data, the First Herrscher has been born for decades, but the Second Herrscher has not yet been born. Overall, it is quite stable."

"Moreover, I met with the first Herrscher of this generation at noon today. It was very strange. It was completely different from those Herrschers of the previous generation. He actually greeted me politely and wanted to get to know me. Ellie said that this proved that she It was successful at first.”

"Huh? Ali? Alicia?...Oh yes, the administrator of [Box of Memories], Alicia gave everyone a doll, and then you asked Velvet to do [Memory] Box] Data-based replication and transformation.”

But what Su didn't expect was that Long's next words shocked him so much that he opened his eyes that had been closed.

"No, it's really Alicia. I have recovered her soul."

"..."

"what?"

From the Old World: Chapter 27 Among the Mustard Seeds

"Ah?...No, how...ah?!"

Su no longer knew how to describe his shock and confusion.

"Alicia, hasn't she...disappeared as a Herrscher?"

His purple eyes were wide with disbelief.

"Death...resurrection..."

Hearing what Su said, Long smiled bitterly, patted Su on the shoulder, and motioned to sit down.

The two of them leaned against the giant tree and looked at the illusory and unreal prairie beauty in the distance in this world.

"Long, what on earth is——"

Long shook his head and interrupted Su's words. He randomly picked up a dry leaf among the thick leaves on the ground, looked at it and said:

"not that simple..."

"I only recovered her soul, but if her soul wants to move freely, it can only live in the [Box of Memories] powered by the mysterious energy in my body."

"And once you want to pull Alicia into the real [world], you need to fight against the [world]'s disallowance."

"Fighting against this disallowance... will consume almost all of my available energy outlet [flow], and this flow, according to Ellie, far exceeds what I used to have... "

"If Ellie's moving body is constructed in reality, in that case, both she and I will only be left with this body that is not too weak."

"However, it seems that it is not impossible to just retrieve the soul and store it in the [Box of Memories] without entering reality..."

"But in that case, I can't return to the world, and it will be useless if I find it... Alicia can only exist in my mind like that, and other people are simply ignorant and indifferent to Alicia's existence... .”

"Well, after all, you are essentially living in the [Box of Memories]."

Su understood, calmed down, closed his eyes and nodded: "So, Alicia is living with you now? I can feel that the energy loss in your body is indeed very serious now."

Su feels very happy now...

It had been a long time since sealing Kevin, and he didn't even notice that there was a smile on his lips.

Su picked up a leaf and said, "At least, they can live again..."

"You know, Long, I am here using the Key of the Second God to execute the Hengsha Plan and observe countless worlds... just to find the hope of victory."

"Maybe this is the darkness under the lamp... I have searched so many worlds, but I still can't find Long's existence."

"Hope...maybe in our own world."

"what?"

Long turned his head to look at Su, and felt a little strange looking at the faint smile on his lips. He could understand what Su said about the Hengsha Project, but he could not find his existence even after observing countless worlds that Su said...

"In those worlds, I don't exist?"

Su shook his head and handed a leaf that appeared in his hand to Long: "No... Including the parallel world world bubble I observed when I just connected to your consciousness, there is still no existence of Long."

"hope..."

"I have summarized so many abnormal points and possible turning points in development, but I have forgotten the biggest unique point. It turns out that it has always been around us..."

"Su..."

Long wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Su's movements and expressions.

With a relaxed and satisfied smile on Su's face, the reunion of old friends who had gone through hardships together gave him a reason to relax, which had been closed for thousands of years and had been tense for thousands of years after cheating his best friend.

In the surrounding space, everything fluctuated.

"Time is running out...my consciousness is going to be squeezed out by the [Box of Memories]."

Su's relaxed expression immediately turned extremely serious.

"Long, we must stop Kevin. In my thousand years of accelerated observation, I have almost exhausted my energy, and I can feel my own weakness."

"We must stop the Stigmata plan!"

"I will tell you what I know about you, your past from my perspective, through my ability, but not completely, after all, it is only from my perspective..."

"My only doubt is that when I checked the status of the [Box of Memories] for you at the end, I clearly remembered that there was no problem. There can be no mistakes in Velvet's work setting program. Mebius will do it for you before going into battle. There were no errors in the inspection.”

"The last setting I made for the [Box of Memories] is that the internal data memory will be activated after you are revived, allowing Long to quickly understand the past."

"But it's okay, I'll help you remember it now."

What Su said was within Long's expectation. Long had already guessed that Alicia hid something from him and did not tell him.

Just like the two lies Ellie told, one should be that he deceived him into choosing to dissipate 5 years ago, and the other should be about the [Box of Memories].

Long was not sure at first. After all, he didn’t know anything at the time, and he was subconsciously willing to believe Fairy Ellie’s story.

Later, through that illusion, Fairy Ellie participated in the construction of so many friends from the previous generation, and the extremely detailed and real information and background settings have proven that she has more than one-sided records of her own memory.

But Long never made it clear. He believed that Ai Li had her own reasons, and sooner or later she would tell him.

Maybe after today's heart-to-heart talk, after they tricked the children into doing their own things, Ellie would tell her everything.

But the thought acceleration backdoor activated by Su's sudden consciousness connection interrupted the process.

In this case... let's keep this memory for now.

Afterwards, Alicia just pretends not to know and listens when she talks. Alicia will also be happy that way.

Thinking like this, Long let go of his conscious defense and waited for Su's memory to be instilled.

He nodded to Su, leaned against the big tree and closed his eyes, waiting to fall asleep.

"Yeah...I'm ready."

"it is good."

Sue put her hand on Long's shoulder.

【Step into this infinite light! 】

Countless pictures crashed into Long's mind. This huge input could only be withstood by Su's precise control and their powerful thinking ability that was different from ordinary people.

In this way, he saw... what he looked like in Su's perception.

That was their first meeting.

"Is there a new danger? Is it an important soldier who is so aggressive?"

Su's mentor, the one-armed Dr. Spacey, looked at the emergency report in his hand. Someone had overstepped his authority, surpassed his authority to create and lead the Fifth Science Department, and directly commandeered the most advanced research laboratory in their experimental base.

Spacy threw the report aside, took out the wine bottle he carried with him, bit off the cap and took a sip. It was his habit to take a sip when something went wrong to relieve stress.

"These ghosts are like this and they still need to apply for me? Haha, do you need it? Why don't you go in directly?"

"Hey, I really didn't know that it was that young man who was unlucky enough to be experimented on by them."

Su listened to his mentor's ridicule to those outsiders and said nothing. Instead, he picked up the report that Sipaxi had thrown away and read it.

"Well, young man?"

Su saw the footage captured by a hidden camera inside a research base. Those people didn't know about this arrangement of Spacey's, even though they had turned off other video surveillance equipment in advance.

A young man, who was almost exhausted and weak, was pushed on a stretcher by a group of nervous men in black and ran wildly.

What surprised Su was that the extremely weak young man looked happy.

From the Old World: Chapter 28 Su and Long’s First Meeting

"Doctor, him?"

Dr. Spacey choked directly: "Don't ask me, I don't know anything. I never want to get involved with those bad debts at the top."

"But...this person..."

"?"

Su looked at his mentor using his only arm to hold the flat flask to his mouth and was about to open the lid. After thinking about something, he suddenly looked at his own expression and felt a little bad. He might have some ideas. .

Sipaxi seemed to feel something was wrong, and looked away from Su. He lowered his eyes and took a sip of wine, but Su's curiosity was already aroused by him.

Instead, Su took the report and kept staring at Sipa Xi. Facing Su like this, Si Paxi could only say: "This person... Su, I don't know if you remember, oh... you should still be there at that time." student."

"Remember that time around the time when the Third Collapse broke out in Changkong City, a church organization became popular all over the world and on the Internet?"

Su paused, thought about it in his mind, and found that such an incident did exist.

At that time, they saw a parade organized by members of the church at the gate of Qianyu College where they were located.

Looking back now, it seems to be a demonstration against the government's cover-up of the Honkai Impact and propaganda of their son of God...
