Jiang Jiu's denial of existence itself just happens to restrain the concept of memory, which tends to be illusory and perpetuated.
"pity......"
“When you reached out to Onphalus to satisfy your greed for memories, trying to pry open the seal of the Iron Curtain, the enmity was already formed.”
“When your actions directly or indirectly lead to the end, we are your mortal enemies.”
Followed by.
It was a cacophony of screams.
very noisy.
Chapter 109 The Goose in the Prison: The Person in the Recollection Court is Now Almost Dead
the first time.
The memories flowing through the Flowing Light Memory Courtyard are filled with intense despair and death.
The memory thief is a truly unique being; after death, all that remains are empty shells.
This can be described as a victory achieved without bloodshed.
Jiang Jiu lowered his eyes, making sure he hadn't missed any small insects, and then stepped towards another area.
In front of a mirror.
He stood in front of the mirror for a few seconds.
"come out."
The mirror remained still.
Jiang Jiu clicked his tongue, took a step back, and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.
"Don't make me repeat myself."
The next moment, the mirror surface rippled gently like water, and a hand broke through the surface, slowly emerging from it.
The black swan stood in front of the mirror, appearing relatively calm, but deep within its purple eyes lay an undisguised fear and wariness.
"The Great Lord of Annihilation... Time's Ashes."
Her voice tried hard to carry a hint of laughter, but it trembled slightly uncontrollably: "Your Excellency's rude intrusion into the Memory Court and slaughter of my colleagues... this is not an attitude of seeking cooperation."
"Ah."
Jiang Jiu nodded and smiled, "So, I'm not here to cooperate, isn't that obvious?"
He took a step closer, forcing the black swan to instinctively back away, and she even accidentally bumped into the mirror.
"I'm here to declare war on Yi Ting. The Memory Thief faction can be declared extinct. What, do you want to avenge your colleague?"
Black Swan: "..."
What to do? He's in Yiting, and now he's almost dead.
How can one survive against a Lord of Annihilation and a Commander of Nothingness? I need help urgently...
"What are you afraid of?"
Jiang Jiu's gaze fell on the black swan's pupils, which were slightly constricted due to tension. His tone was playful, but there was little real killing intent in it.
"I never said I was going to kill you, at least not right now."
Black Swan's tense nerves did not relax much because of this statement.
Jiang Jiu's actions can be considered aboveboard and honest.
He didn't hide his actions; on the contrary, he seemed to think the bigger the better.
Therefore, the Black Swan was forced to witness firsthand how easily this Extinction Lord killed those memory thieves, that erasure of "existence" itself... far exceeding normal killing methods.
In the realm of memory, death is not the end, but being completely negated by the power of nothingness leaves not even a trace of memory... That is the thing that terrifies those who remember the most.
"Then... what is your purpose?"
The black swan forced itself to calm down, maintaining the elegance and mystery of a reminiscent being, even though it seemed somewhat disheveled at this moment.
"I need a little bit of your help."
Jiang Jiu sheathed the Lonely Star sword, and the moment the sword disappeared, the suffocating pressure around him lessened somewhat.
"Aren't those who remember best at stealing memories from other people's heads? Deleting... adding... their abilities are quite impressive. Come and lend a hand."
"This... is probably against the rules and beyond my capabilities."
The black swan instinctively wanted to refuse.
Nonsense... Going with him now would be like throwing yourself into the lion's den. You're already on the verge of death in Yiting, the chances of survival are even slimmer if you go with him.
She regrets it now.
She shouldn't have come to Yiting at this time.
She could have gone to Pinocchio, or anywhere else... but of all things, she had to run into this devilish man as soon as she got back...
"It's just a partial memory recall. We can discuss the specifics later. Hmm... It's worth mentioning that you probably don't have the right to refuse."
"I..." Black Swan wanted to say something more.
Jiang Jiu interrupted her, his tone threatening: "Alright, alright, rules are rules, but people are flexible. After all, here, I am the rule."
"As for the ability... I know you have a way."
He stepped forward, almost face to face with the Black Swan, his purple-glowing eyes staring straight into hers with a seductive quality.
"It's just helping out, it would be impolite to refuse."
Black Swan: "..."
Are you being polite?
Threatening people the whole time, asking for help and not letting them refuse... How can anyone play like this?
Black Swan chuckled and said, "Of course, Lord Shi Jin, just tell me what you want me to do."
"A smart decision!"
Black Swan followed Jiang Jiu somewhat absentmindedly as they left Liuguang Yiting, feeling as if it were all a dream... Of course, if it were just a dream, she would definitely be moved to tears.
Throughout the journey, she remained highly vigilant, occasionally trying to elicit information or lighten the mood to reduce the man's desire to kill her.
But Jiang Jiu ignored her.
She couldn't help but steal several glances at Jiang Jiu, silently suppressing the curiosity in her heart.
Forget it... Coveting his memories feels like a recipe for disaster.
This vigilance was maintained until Jiang Jiu used some unconventional space jump method to bring her to the Black Tower Space Station.
It wasn't until I stepped into that laboratory and saw the black tower inside, arms crossed, seemingly adjusting some data, and the android king standing beside him, exuding an elegant aura...
The black swan's heartstrings, stretched to the limit, suddenly relaxed for a moment.
It's Lady Black Tower and Mr. Screw Goom!!!
Although these two are both top-tier beings in the universe and equally formidable, at least... at least they are reasonable!
At least they won't just crush the Memory Recruiter like an insect without a word!
The black swan was so excited it almost cried.
Compared to the terrifying guy behind her who wiped out a bunch of her colleagues without saying a word, these two members of the Genius Club in front of her were like the warmest lighthouse in the universe!
It can live!!!
"Oh, you're back?"
Black Tower raised an eyebrow, his gaze sweeping over Jiang Jiu before landing on Black Swan, who was clearly still shaken and even seemed somewhat "well-behaved."
"You even brought 'guests'? These are the helpers you 'invited'? They don't look too good."
Screw Gum bowed slightly, his mechanical voice gentle and polite: "If thought always precedes language, then no words can define this joy."
"Welcome to the Black Tower Space Station, Lord Memory. I am Screw Goom. Please do not be nervous; we mean no harm."
His gaze lingered subtly between Jiang Jiu and the Black Swan before he added.
"At least until a consensus on cooperation is reached."
Black Swan: "..."
Chapter 110 In the Name of the End
Black Swan took a deep breath, trying to appear calm.
She regained her usual elegant demeanor with a mysterious smile, though the smile still seemed a little stiff...
“Ms. Black Tower, Mr. Screw Goom, I’ve heard so much about you. I am Black Swan, an ordinary Memory Receiver. It is an honor to be invited here by Lord Time Ember.”
She pronounced the word "invitation" with exceptional clarity, carrying a hint of barely perceptible resentment.
Jiang Jiu seemed not to understand the meaning behind her words. He walked straight to the Black Tower's workbench, picked up a cup of coffee that someone had left there, took a sip, and then frowned.
"...It has no smell? Black Tower, did you buy a fake one?"
Black Tower: "...That's mine."
Jiang Jiu paused for two seconds and then coughed lightly.
"Sorry, it's mine now."
She glanced at Jiang Jiu, but couldn't be bothered to argue: "How could my coffee have no flavor? Could it be your own problem?"
Jiang Jiu thought for a moment, then remained silent.
Black Tower ignored all that and turned to Black Swan: "Alright, enough with the pleasantries. I can roughly guess how this guy 'invited' you here in such a friendly way."
"Now let's get down to business. What does he need you to do? Retrieve memories? Whose? About what?"
The black swan blinked, looking somewhat bewildered.
Huh? Should I know that?
