“I can lose my memory… but I will never allow myself to lose her.”
Having said that, he resolutely took a step forward.
The moment the palm touched the ball of light, the surrounding light and shadow were suddenly torn apart!
The entire space rotated and folded, and everyone was instantly sucked into a vast and boundless spiritual realm.
They landed in a ruined city floating in the clouds.
The city was desolate and dilapidated, the sky glowed with a sickly purple light, and in the distance, a massive steel tower pierced the clouds, its top swirling with ever-flowing vortexes of data.
Beneath my feet is a broken, transparent bridge that connects various areas high in the sky, while below lies a void where fragments of memory churn.
Each window seems to conceal a long-forgotten past.
At the end of the street, a young girl stood quietly.
Dressed in white, standing in the gentle breeze.
She had her back to them, her long hair fluttering in the wind.
No one could see her face clearly, and no one dared to approach her easily.
“She’s just ahead,” the woman whispered.
Su Ting didn't stop walking and continued forward.
However, just five steps away from the girl, the entire bridge suddenly began to shake violently.
A familiar yet chilling voice suddenly exploded in my ears—
You are the intruder.
Immediately afterwards, an enormous mechanical eye slowly opened in the sky.
The crimson light, like blood, gazes upon all living beings.
At the same time, from beneath the ground, hundreds of black arms extended from the cracks and grabbed their ankles.
"Welcome back to where you started." The voice was cold, yet carried a hint of human warmth. "Let me ask you a question—if you could do it all over again, would you still choose to give her up?"
"You ask me if I will still do it?" Su Ting's voice was deep and firm. "I have never given up on her."
The mechanical eye narrowed slightly, its red light swirling like burning flames: "This is not a choice. This is a judgment."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge black figure materialized out of thin air.
It was a battle armor puppet resembling an ancient god, its surface covered with crack-like energy patterns, and every joint emitted a deep rumble.
He slowly raised a metal arm, flicked his fingertip, and an earth-shattering force erupted instantly—
boom! !
The entire bridge collapsed!
The crowd plummeted rapidly, and Su Ting's body was thrown out of the crowd, tumbling several times in the air before crashing heavily onto the edge of a suspended platform.
Blood surged within my body, and my vision blurred for a moment.
"Hey! Don't let me down at a time like this." Chu Mo's voice suddenly rang out from above. He had somehow landed on a broken pillar next to him, half-kneeling with one hand on the ground, but still wearing that infuriating smile on his face.
"You can still laugh?" Su Ting coughed up blood.
"If you can't laugh, you'll never have a chance to laugh, understand?"
On the platform, the mechanical giant approached step by step, and the ground cracked and shattered with each step it took.
The woman's figure appeared on the other side, her expression serious. "That is the tower's first line of mental defense—'Judgment 01.' It's not an enemy in the true sense... but rather a projection of your subconscious guilt."
"So, defeat myself?"
"Correct."
"That sounds like a fucking difficult task."
"Then stop talking nonsense and get up to fight, brother."
A clear, cool yet familiar female voice abruptly interrupted the conversation.
Su Ting looked up abruptly—the girl stood on the opposite broken wall, her gaze calm, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, as if she were the only rational being in the conversation just now.
Chapter 1035 Never Get Up Again
“An Ran…” Su Ting murmured, trying to stand up but being locked in place by gravity.
A shadowy figure appeared behind him. "If you don't get up, your sister will die in your place again."
This sentence seems to have triggered some kind of mechanism.
Su Ting suddenly broke free from the restraint, slammed his palm on the ground, and forcefully turned over to stand up.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't want her to suffer for me anymore."
The girl nodded gently. "Then remember one thing."
Her figure suddenly became somewhat blurry, like a wisp of light swaying in the wind.
"If this is all a dream, would you be willing to burn yourself into the depths of this illusion to save me?"
The next second, the screen shook violently.
The entire platform exploded, turning into countless data fragments that floated and scattered in all directions.
[Cognitive Restructuring Breakthrough – The Third Realm Begins]
Everyone was once again caught in a downward spiral.
This time, they found themselves in an arena amidst ruins—surrounded by towering stone pillars, with a circular surface in the center covered in ancient symbols, resembling a sacrificial site.
"Welcome to the 'Ring of Choices'." The voice still came from that giant eye. "This is one of the core areas of the Memory Reconstruction Zone, where you will confront your deepest guilt and regrets."
"Us?" Ji Yan's eyes turned cold. "Do you want them to go up there and die one by one?"
The giant eye remained silent for a moment, then a screen of light unfolded in the air.
[The fateful showdown is about to begin—Match complete: Su Ting × Su Ran (Mirror Form)]
"What the hell?" Lin Su frowned.
“Another me…?” Su Ting stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar face that appeared on the screen, his pupils contracting.
He was a young man in a white lab coat, with a calm expression and sharp eyes. He also had a blue tag on his forehead, which represented some kind of deep brain connection state.
The woman explained in a low voice, "He was a 'replica of an experiment,' a personality backup you created yourself to protect her."
"In other words... that was actually me too."
"But he chose betrayal."
As the woman finished speaking, the figure on the other side of the screen slowly walked into the arena, his steps steady and indifferent.
He stood opposite, looking at the real Su Ting, and smiled faintly:
"You're only arriving now."
The two exchanged a glance, and the energy array around them suddenly lit up—
The trial has officially begun.
What makes you think you can make up for the past?
Su Ran raised her hand, her fingertips wrapped around a data cable, and fragmented memories floated in the air.
“Those people, those things…you’ve long forgotten their names, their faces, and even the lies you told them.”
As he spoke, a flicker of light appeared in his hand.
A vague image of a boy is summoned—it is Su Ting in his childhood.
He screamed, "You said you wouldn't abandon me! You said you'd find my sister!! And what happened?! You locked me in a lab for three years just to test my 'personality synchronization rate'! Are you even human?!"
Su Ran sneered, "You don't remember, do you? These... are the experimental subjects you created."
From the audience seats, Xiao You clenched her fists. "These people are real soul data, sealed inside the tower back then, used as 'emotional samples'..."
Su Ting's face was pale.
“I don’t remember… but I remember I was going to take her back.”
After he finished speaking, he slowly raised his hand, his knuckles cracking.
"No matter which part of me you are... I'm telling you now—"
"I have no intention of forgiving anyone, including yourself."
Chapter 1036 His figure suddenly rushed forward
Su Ran chuckled softly, "Finally... you've told the truth."
He suddenly lunged forward, so fast that he seemed to tear the air apart.
Su Ting did not back down and stepped forward to meet him.
Fists and kicks clashed, and light and shadow tore through the sky.
