Huangliang City.
After they both returned to the city...
Su Hao learnt that after Li Xin underwent training for some time, he got thrown out by his father for self tempering. He didn't know what he was supposed to do. After reading novels, he noticed that protagonists always embark on a journey hunting for treasures, which was why he excitedly bought a treasure seeker and ran all the way here.
"Hold on..." Su Hao realized something was amiss. However, upholding his cautious manner, he still asked, "When did you begin your journey?"
"It should be about half a month ago?" Li Xin scratched his head.
Su Hao: "..."
The mall that he just destroyed earlier was at least a thousand miles away! In other words, Li Xin actually walked over a thousand miles in half a month's time?
"How many Nitai artifacts did you manage to find?" Su Hao asked.
"None." Li Xin sighed, "A protagonist needs experience to temper oneself. When Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a man, it always first frustrates his spirit and will, exhausts his muscles and bones, exposes him to starvation and poverty..."
"You even know this classic saying?" Su Hao's eyes opened wide.
"I think that this saying is a true representation of me, which is why I paid more attention to it." Li Xin said, full of emotion.
"Forget about it." Su Hao patted his shoulder, "I want to search for Green Leaf Organization. It's those men in black with a green leaf logo on their clothes during our time in Gaoyuan City. Do you want to tag along?"
"Of course, of course!" Li Xin excitedly replied.
Finally, it came!
To him, finding treasures are merely just farming. As a protagonist, how could there be no adventure or danger? Although Li Xin is always standing behind him each time, Su Hao had no doubt that in his story, Su Hao is merely a mentor leading Li Xin to reach the top of the world...
However, Su Hao didn't care.
Isn't life about this?
Looking at it from another perspective, whose life it is, everyone is their own protagonist!
History is too long, and the future is too far away. If you want to compare yourself to history and the future, you are nothing but a sea of fright. If so, then why not be your own main character in this short life? Li Xin's mentality is actually very good.
"Let's go."
"But Big Boss, why aren't we buying night clothes? I read in the novels that it's an essential thing for the protagonist since it's convenient for killing and setting fire. I saw it last time, and there seems to be a big discount..."
Huangliang City.
The little yellow hat team, after a whole day of exploring, they seemed to have finally found a clue and gathered in front of a mansion at the north side of the city.
"Are you sure it's here?"
"En, this mansion is said to have been left from ancient times. According to the data, when the era of origin ability arrived, the world underwent changes being hit by an energy storm. Only this mansion shone brightly, illuminating the entire city. Of course, these are just the so-called legends."
"Then why is it so desolate here?"
A few people from the team looked at this closed door. It looked similar to the old palaces shown on TV. Except it was too ruined... Coupled with the green moss growing on the wall, one could clearly see that there had not been any people here for a very long time.
"It is said that someone had purchased this place a long time ago, but no one took care of it. Over time, this mansion then turned like this. Although the rumors said that the owner of this mansion had long died, because this mansion is expensive, the original owner also seemed to have military merits, no one dared to pay attention here."
"Go, let's have a look."
"This doesn't seem like a good idea."
"Stop uttering nonsense! This is our closest chance after searching for so many years. If this is really the root of the city's transformation, then perhaps we will finally find what we want."
The rejection ended.
Although everyone in the little yellow hat team felt bad, this group of elderly people skillfully climbed over the wall. This showed that this wasn't the first time they did this.
One could hear the sound of their landing.
They stepped on the grass.
The courtyard had been overgrown with grasses, showing even more that no one had been here for a long time.
"Be careful. Don't use any origin energy. Otherwise, someone can easily detect something is wrong here from the energy fluctuation." Several men carefully entered.
The mansion was large. They walked through the courtyard before reaching the center part. They didn't notice in the slightest bit that the grasses which they stepped on quickly grew back, closing their path as if no one had come here before.
"Warning..."
"Enemy detected!"
"In the scanner..."
The signal was quietly transmitted.
The old men in the team were unaware as they were touching the inner wall in nostalgia, "The pattern here seems to be similar to the city wall..."
"This familiar feeling..."
"Hold on! I seemed to have recalled something!"
An old man rubbed his head in pain while muttering, "This familiar pattern seemed to have appeared before in the past. Suddenly, I seemed to have forgotten many things. I think... These strange things... I seemed to have seen people with different skin colors before..."
"Could it be aliens?!" An old man was shocked, "Could it be our memory had been erased by aliens?!"
"No, not this."
That old man's headache seemed to have reduced. He was thinking really hard, "It's our fellow human beings. We seemed to be from the same side... Hold on! I finally remembered! Those are humans of different skin color. They are from other countries! In the past, we're divided into many countries, with different skin colors..."
He finally remembered!
The others were shocked and hurriedly asked him to describe in detail.
The old man described the fragments of memory he recalled. As for the others, they also seemed to barely remember some related memories. After they pieced everything together, a part of the time before the origin ability era was finally put together! However, what shocked them was the time when their memory disappeared wasn't 2030!
In the year 2030, the origin ability came, and the world underwent a huge transformation.
They had always thought that their memory changed at that moment, but that wasn't the case...
As they carefully looked around, they could remember more things. The time when they began to lose their memory turned out to be in the year 2020! In other words, the chaotic era actually began 10 years earlier!
"How is this possible?"
Everyone was horrified.
This is a fact that terrifies one.
"Could it be something went wrong?"
"That must be it. How could it be the year 2020? The chaotic era only began in the year 2030. Even if there is a talent that can wipe memories, it should only appear at that time! Why were our memories lost from the year 2020?"
"Yes, you're right..."
"Although it's only a fragment, I am sure that it's the year 2020. That year, that moment, our memory got tampered by someone."
"!!!"
Everyone was so shocked that they could barely control themselves.
If it's really the year 2020... who was the one erasing their memory? One needs to take note that it's not one person but the entire human race! Exploring the world of the Federation, they felt extremely lonely, and when they found out that their memory was tampered, very few could pretend nothing happened.
"Exactly what had happened?"
Everyone raised their heads.
"Continue to explore. Since I have recovered some memories, I want to continue exploring. I will definitely dig up something." That old man excitedly said.
"Great."
Everyone suppressed their shock and followed along.
Everything in the future...
The mystery of memories...
It seemed to be revealed at this moment.
From the endless coast, a light flickered as a beautiful figure flashed past. Her speed was so amazing that it was impossible to detect whether it was a person or an object.
Huangliang City.
This old mansion welcomed its second guest.
One could see a lean man with casual clothes searching with a cynical and impatient look. If Su Hao were here, he would definitely recognize this man. This was during the time when they saved Li Tiantian from the marriage, that one slippery domain esper they encountered!
That man who disappeared silently!
At this time, this lean man, who was not supposed to have appeared here, stood in front of the mansion and said with some emotion, "You old men, why not just happily live well for the remaining few years? Why are you all so free to even search for the so-called lost memories? Just a bunch of cannon fodder."
That lean man complained.
"However, having said that, these old men should have become aware during these recent years. The seal in the past, how did it begin to loosen more and more?"
"Could it be something is about to happen?"
"Forget about it, it has nothing to do with us."
He tightened the black leather gloves on his hands as his tired face turned cold, "That brat should be here soon. I must deal with this before that brat arrives..."
Swish!
That lean man vanished and entered the deeper part of the courtyard.
His landing was silent.
That lean man walked on the grass lightly without using any origin energy, fearing to cause any fluctuation.
Swish!
That lean man disappeared without a trace.
In the ancient mansion, there were two groups of guests on the ground, but no one realized that below the mansion, someone was staring coldly at what was happening within the mansion. He had a smooth face, wearing black clothes with a bright green leaf logo.
Green Leaf Organization!
They actually nested here!
"Someone is coming!" The staff warned.
"What happened?"
"What? Have we been discovered?"
"The matter in Gaoyuan City had passed for so long. Now, is this place going to be discovered too?"
Everyone was in deep shock.
"No, that doesn't seem so."
A staff member pointed at those with little yellow hats, "That seems to be a tourist group that came by themselves. They seemed to have noticed a familiar feeling or something like that."
"Oh?
Everyone curiously looked at the record.
It was exactly like what the staff described.
"Could it be the original owner of this mansion?"
"It doesn't matter who it is." The head of the men in black said indifferently, "Whether it's the original owner of a tourist group, as long as they get close, they must be killed. Once they enter here, kill them and leave no anomalies behind."
"Yes!"
