Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 241 The Burned Past ([-]): Conservation of Matter
The ice-blue flame in her eyes flickered non-stop. Chen Yan could clearly see that the flame would turn into a dense mosaic from time to time. The mosaic was filled with countless garbled codes and countless 0s and 1s. Like the flight of a wild bee, there is no law at all.

With the appearance of the mosaic, the girl stepped forward out of control and grabbed Chen Yan's arm.

"Brother! Help me! I just saw from part of that man's memory that he has more than just this body.

He's not a normal human being, he..."

She became a little hysterical due to fear, and her words were frantic and illogical, her expression was sick, crazy, and her speech was getting faster and faster:
"I don't know what he is, I only know that he got a part of my world memory fragments, and through our knowledge, he carried out some kind of dangerous transformation on himself...

He has a part of mine...

So, he became the only person in this universe who could threaten me..."

The girl finished speaking incoherently, then suddenly paused, looked at Chen Yan, and said in a low voice:

"Combined with his own ability...he has reached a level that threatens me...we must leave as soon as possible..."

Chen Yan looked at the blazing ice-blue flames in her pupils, gritted her teeth and said:

"You just said..."

When he said these words, even he felt weird.

"When you enter this universe, you lose something.

That thing is called [World Memory Fragment]. "

Chen Yan's eyes trembled.

"You also said that your memory fragments are in other people's souls."

He looked into her eyes.

"What you ate before...whether it was that passenger or just now...what you ate was their souls...the [World Memory Fragments] that existed in their souls and belonged to you, right?"

The girl nodded without hesitation and admitted the matter.

Chen Yan thought of a possibility, and whispered: "How do you know that the memory fragments are in their heads?"

The girl replied without hesitation: "I don't know... I can only roughly perceive the range of memory fragments in my world, and then look for traces based on the range."

Chen Yan couldn't believe it: "So you killed that passenger just to test it out!"

He immediately dismissed his claims: "No! You must have been eating to some extent! Because that's the only time you've recovered these days!"

She was silent and did not deny it.

He looked into her eyes: "No wonder... No wonder you can't recover by eating normal food.

Your food turns out to be human souls..."

He looked at her lowered head, absurd thoughts emerged in her head, and finally a sense of fear appeared in his heart.

"Could it be... what you said [retrieve your own memory fragments] is something that can only be achieved by eating people constantly!"

When the girl raised her head again, half of her face was already covered by floating pixels.

"To me [individual life] is meaningless."

She approached Chen Yan, almost pressing her face against his.

It was also at this time that Chen Yan finally saw clearly that the pixels on her face were actually countless [character oceans] composed of various characters.

In the sea of ​​characters, there is not only the Imperial language of the Luke people, but also various other languages.

Chen Yan only glanced at it for a moment, and he had already seen the characters of Yingguo, Nan'an, Suka Britain, Andiyin, Goliath, Rogni... and more than a dozen ethnic groups, as well as some other languages. Unfamiliar characters that have never been seen before.

Those words are arranged and combined in various forms in the [Character Ocean] on her face, forming a string that seems to have a certain meaning.

In this instant, Chen Yan suddenly had an inexplicable idea in his head:

He thinks that these strings are disorganized, not arranged according to the original rules, and lost their original features due to the girl's frantic state.

With these characters, something has gone wrong.

He didn't know why he thought so.

He only knew that the sickly distorted smile on the girl's face represented that she had fallen into some kind of irreparable madness.

"Individual life is meaningless."

She spoke on her own, and didn't care whether Chen Yan could understand or not.

"From the moment carbon-based life came into this world, it has been walking towards death step by step.

They desperately wanted to change the world in their short lives, but the existence of any objective things in the world never depended on human will——

Everything they do is in vain.

Their lives are utterly meaningless. "

The expression on her face gradually turned cold, and the emotionless compassion in her eyes made her look not like a human being, but like a god on high.

"If I follow the picture, every life in this world will become my shackles, and I will spend an unimaginable amount of time looking for memory fragments."

"For those meaningless [individual lives], I don't need to do this at all."

"Life is short, fleeting.

When you stretch your vision long enough, you will find that [no life] can [change any course of history].

The world has its own laws of development, which cannot be changed by any life. "

She looked into Chen Yan's eyes.

"The same goes for you and me."

"My memory backups are scattered in this world, and the container that can hold my memory fragments has something special besides the soul...

But fortunately, apart from the man just now, those things have not yet appeared in this universe.

I just need to find enough memory fragments from the souls of carbon-based life forms to restore my memory and find my way home before those things appeared in this universe. "

The girl broke into Chen Yan's arms, hugged him tightly, and whispered in his ear:
"Brother, help me, okay?"

Chen Yan felt the cold palm on the back of his neck, and said with a sad smile:

"If I don't help you, will you kill me too?"

The girl hugged him tighter.

Her voice was surprisingly calm.

"The matter in the universe is conserved, it will not be created out of thin air, nor will it disappear out of thin air."

"Even if my brother [die] in the form of [carbon-based life], he will [exist] in the world in another form."

Her fingertips were embedded in the back of his neck, and the pain caused by this made his eyes go dark, and he almost went into shock instantly.

Chen Yan had tinnitus in her ears due to the huge mental pressure. At this moment, except for her voice, all other sounds disappeared.

"I will keep my brother safe.

In this way, my brother doesn't have to work hard to find memory fragments, and he doesn't have to feel guilty for killing too many.

I will do all those dirty things, my brother just needs to wait patiently until I collect all the memory fragments...

When the time comes, we'll go home together..."
