Chapter 960: Homeward Journey, So Close Yet So Hard to Reach 2
"I thought that if I just waited in the corner of the Memory Realm, no one would notice... but I can't hide it from you, my dear Xing."
At this time, Chang Yeyue appeared in the center of the vortex of creation and also appeared in front of Xing.
Xing looked at the long night moon in front of him and said, "March Seven, I miss you so much!"
"It seems you're no longer that surprised by my unexpected visitor. Your expression is filled with longing, but I'm not her, okay? Now, only you can see me. To avoid being disturbed, I exist only in your perception."
"Then let's talk about you... What exactly is your purpose? Where is March Seven?"
"She's... not there. It seems you haven't prepared for the worst. Your companion, March Seven, is no more."
"No longer... exists! Explain yourself clearly!" Xing was obviously anxious after hearing this, and his expression became very serious.
"Indeed, it no longer exists. Long before you and Danheng arrived in Omphalos, March Seventh entered this world. To protect you, she embraced the path of memory, like a candle in the mist, consuming herself.
And I am the shadow cast by the candlelight. For so long, I have lurked in the cracks of time. Deceiving a genius is no easy task, but I can do it. Now, let me address another of your concerns: the flame of time in this life. Who will return it?
The answer is simple...it never happened."
Having said that, the constellations of time in the starry sky also instantly went out.
Xing was incredulous: "The Spark of Time... has not been returned? As expected, it was you who tampered with people's memories..."
"I believe that the sensitive stars will be able to detect the clues. When the re-creation fails to proceed smoothly, you will recall our first encounter. Through this, I will be able to open the channel of memory and arrive here.
Thank you for bringing it to the end of the world. You are worthy of being March Seven's trusted companion. Now... I will accept the divine power of time."
At this moment, Chang Yeyue was about to seize the Spark of Time. Xing asked, "Why would you deceive everyone? What use is the divine power of Time to you?"
"I don't care about many things, only March Seven and her cherished companions. Theocracy is not important. What is important is that I can use it to intervene in the operation of the world."
Starry Sky Railway Tibao: "Interfering with the operation of the world, Chang Yeyue tampered with our memories, making us all believe that the flame of time had been returned, and now it wants to interfere with the world again."
Honkai Impact 3rd: Immortal Tower Himeko: "What exactly is her purpose? She said before that she was trying to protect Little Sanyue, but now she says Little Sanyue has disappeared."
Starry Sky Railway March 7: "Why don't you just ask her directly? Chang Yeyue, why are you doing this?"
Yeyue, the director of the Xingqiong Railway: "Hehe, guess!"
Chang Yeyue said to Xing, "You are already clear about the principle of re-creation, right? The memories of those who have already died are used as a blueprint to start the calculations of the next generation. This unshakable experimental mechanism is the key to the geniuses' fight against the Iron Tomb.
And now, I'm going to add a small boost... Let me filter your memories, retaining the appropriate seeds and discarding all the rest. In this way, we can complete an unprecedented re-creation.
This won't take long. Just walk with me into the rain of senses, and I'll tell you who should be forgotten and who should be remembered. Using your memories as material, I'll rewrite the cause and effect of the world, allowing a flawless Omphalos to emerge from chaos.
The fate of the galaxy hangs on this battle, doesn't it? It's the only surefire way to triumph over destruction and make a bold statement in the history of progress."
Xing shook her head firmly. "Impossible, I can't trust you. No matter who is forgotten, your actions are no different from those of Lagushi. You are not March Seven. Give her back!"
"Haha, indeed, I'm not her. But our hearts are closely connected. And this is also what March Seventh hopes for. For new life to sprout, its seeds must be dead.
Before she disappeared, Sanyueqi made a wish to me. Her only wish was that her pioneering journey continue. And I will definitely fulfill this simple wish for her.
"You're twisting her wishes!"
Just when Xing was about to get angry, Xilian's voice rang out: "Mate, what happened? Your consciousness... suddenly became so distant?"
Chang Yeyue: "I promise you that we will meet again in the new world on the Starry Sky Train. Come, my dear. Sink into the ocean of oblivion and become my guest. We can have lots of private time together, and you can't refuse my invitation.
Because this wave of memories comes from your companion, March Seventh...it is her most profound and bottomless memory."
As he spoke, Chang Yeyue activated his ability, and Xing suddenly felt dizzy.
Starry Sky Railway Pioneer Qiong: "It's over, it's over, my sister was killed by the dark version of Stupid Baji."
Cosmic Wanderer Gao Xuan: "It's reasonable to suspect that before Xing, Dan Heng also fell victim to this trick."
Mingchao Gabriella: "Could it be that Sanyueqi's most unfathomable memory is the memory she lost?"
Honkai Impact 3rd Xilin: “Who knows.”
March 7: "Actually, I'm not that surprised. After all, I've seen you before. On the train, that night when a certain pure and beautiful knight showed up uninvited... You showed up just like that, without a word."
At this moment, March 7th was looking at another self in front of him who was wearing the same clothes and had the same appearance as him.
But this March Seven's eyes were red: "Oh, I see. Then do you remember how long it has been since you entered Omphalos?"
"Isn't this too much to ask?"
"97 days. You spent 97 days traveling to every corner of the world. Sadly... no one could see you, and you couldn't interfere with anyone. Just like the Rememberers, they shed their bodies and became memes. Now you... are a ghost that no one knows."
"But I can't just sit there and do nothing. This world... is too terrifying. Xing and Dan Heng have already set off. Perhaps in the next second, the Starry Sky Train will appear on the horizon..."
"Then, become the new victim."
March 7 nodded silently
Star Railway Pioneer Xing: "It's over, it's over, it's over! March has really become a ghost! Go get Mr. Tail!"
Starry Sky Railway Tail: "You don't have to make such a fuss, do you?"
Starry Sky Railway Silver Branch: "So when I first visited the train, Miss March had already met Miss Chang Yeyue."
Honkai Impact 3rd Kallen: "But Sanyue is a ghost that no one knows about. How lonely must she be wandering in Omphalos all this time?"
