Lobotomy: Battle Master's Strongest Knight

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect that I would run into an acquaintance while just walking around." The black cat looked straight at Shen Yu and spoke easily.

"But..." Shen Yu frowned upon hearing this and pointed to the ticket station in the distance, "Weren't you thrown out?"

As soon as Shen Yu finished speaking, Black Cat's smile suddenly collapsed. He stood up and cursed in his boots:

"Why am I so unlucky lately? I always run into weird people."

Then the black cat put on his boots, looked around, turned to Shen Yu and the little knight and asked:

"What is this place?"

"Then you should ask the guy behind you," Shen Yu pointed to the ticket station behind him, "This is his world."

"Huh?" Hearing this, the black cat suddenly turned around and scratched his head, saying, "What's going on? How could I end up in someone else's world? Is this the boundary of my world..."

Just as the black cat was telling the story, he suddenly felt his neck tighten, his limbs flew into the air, and finally turned in front of a human face.

"I say, how did you escape from the containment room?" Shen Yu looked at the other party and asked slowly.

"I'm not running away. I just felt bad so I went out for a walk. I don't know why I ended up here."

The black cat curled up, supported its chin with its two paws, and stared with its big watery eyes.

"I'm sorry, my situation is a bit special, and spiritual abilities don't seem to be able to play a big role for me."

"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Black Cat suddenly stood up and pointed at Shen Yu and cursed:

"I knew you were a weirdo. How could a normal person have something like that in their head?"

"There's something in your head. What is it?"

"Ah, it's nothing. I was just dazzled. You idiots just like to be suspicious." The black cat folded his hands and snorted disdainfully.

"Oh, I see." Upon hearing this, Shen Yu glanced at the row of yellow lights that were lit at the ticket station, walked slowly to the track, stood in front of it, and stretched out his right hand.

"What do you want to do to me?" Seeing this, the black cat suddenly felt something was wrong and turned to look at Shen Yu behind him.

"You'll find out later."

As soon as Shen Yu finished speaking, a long whistle suddenly sounded in the thick fog in the distance, and then the track below began to vibrate violently.

Black Cat looked in the direction of the sound and found that the tunnel on the left suddenly lit up, and a silhouette slowly emerged in it. Then, a train rushed out of the tunnel and ran towards him.

At the same time, a voice came slowly from behind the black cat.

"Oops, my hand slipped."

Chapter 111 Promise

When the train broke through the fog, Black Cat was surprised to find that the other side's headlight was actually a giant yellow eye, and the wheels below were opening and closing like the sharp teeth of a giant beast, chewing up the obstacles ahead.

At the same time, Black Cat noticed that the force on the back of his neck was slowly weakening, so he immediately said:

"It's a white crown."

As soon as the black cat finished speaking, he felt the force that made the cat feel at ease, so he stepped back, letting him breathe a sigh of relief and look at the train ahead.

The heavy body of the car was covered with mottled rust, and many parts of the surface were sunken, with spider-web-like cracks radiating outward. The flesh connecting the carriages rose and fell as it moved, and dark red liquid was leaking out.

All the windows were broken, the frames were covered with thick dust, and white smoke was constantly emitting, making it impossible to see clearly inside the car. The smoke also gave off an indescribable smell.

Coupled with the giant yellow eye in front of the car, it looks like a long winding snake from a distance.

Then, the strange creature slowly slowed down and stopped in front of the platform, and the doors opened one after another with disgusting clicks.

Seeing this, Shen Yu released the right hand that was holding the black cat. The latter landed steadily on the ground, looked at the train in front of him and asked:

"Do you want to run away too?"

"Run away, how about you check the timetable?" Shen Yu pointed to the ticket station ahead and reminded.

Hearing this, Black Cat came forward with his boots tapping, observed for a while, then turned to Shen Yu and said:

"Even if it's dead, I can bring it back to life. How hard is it to change the schedule?"

"Then why were you thrown out?"

"Who would have thought that this guy is an idiot and can't understand what I'm saying. Then what are you doing here? Are you looking for death?"

Can you speak? Shen Yu was slightly confused when he heard this, and after a light cough, he explained:

"It's not that I want to go to the underworld, but I promised a group of people that I would send them to the underworld."

"Where are the people? There are only you and that little guy here," Black Cat looked around and stepped forward to pat Shen Yu's calf, "It turns out that you are the one who wants to die. Don't worry, there is nothing to be ashamed of."

At this time, Shen Yu didn't want to complain anymore, and signaled the little knight to spit out the core of the nameless monster baby.

Hearing this, the little knight nodded, slowly bent his body, and then rays of light emerged from his eyes, condensing into a sticky ball of light in the air.

Seeing this, Puss in Boots took a step forward slowly, and then said in surprise:

"Our origin in the subconscious?"

"Oh, it seems you know a lot. Remember to tell me about it later." Upon hearing this, Shen Yu showed a bright smile to Puss in Boots, turned around and walked to the ticket station, pointing at the ball of light behind him and said:

"Can you send the remaining children to the underworld? Oh, and remember to leave a child named Ino behind. Someone is waiting for him in the world."

Hearing this, the golden pupils at the ticket booth swayed up and down, which was considered as an agreement. Then there was a sudden clicking sound inside, as if someone was typing.

In a moment, a yellowed note poked out from the railing. Just as Shen Yu was about to reach out to take it, the note rushed out from the railing like a torrent and continued to spread out to the outside world.

Before long, the entire stand was filled with a long note, and when Shen Yu picked it up, he found that it was filled with densely packed names, and many of them were written in strange characters.

"What are these?" Shen Yu sighed as he looked at the names above. He suddenly realized that the other party probably couldn't speak, so he searched for paper and pen on his body.

But at this moment, a whistle-like sound suddenly came from the railing:

"These are their names. Even children who are abandoned at birth have their own real names."

So those weird characters are the real name? Thinking of this, Shen Yu raised his head and asked the other party:

"Can they get on the bus now?"

"No," Jin Tong shook his head, stretched out his dark fingers and pointed at the four lights above, first taking the tickets, and then getting on the bus one by one.

"One by one?" Puss in Boots at the back looked around and found that the documents had already submerged the entire platform, but they were still pouring out.

"How long do we have to wait?" The black cat blinked and asked in confusion:

"I guess even if that guy over there dies, he won't be able to withdraw all the money. Aren't they all in the same group now? Why not just use one ticket?"

Hearing this, Jintong looked at Puss in Boots and said slowly:

"Every life is unique, and they have the right to sleep peacefully with their own ticket."

Having said that, Jin Tong looked at Shen Yu and slowly said:

“You don’t have to worry about time. Compared to the outside world, time here is stagnant. You will remain in the state you entered, and you won’t get hungry, age, or metabolize.

“No matter how long you stay, when you return to your outside world, you will enter the state and time.”

"Can't we just let those guys get the tickets themselves?" Puss in Boots looked at the ball of light and asked puzzledly.

"No," the conductor said decisively, "Both I and they have lost the desire to live. A dead person like me cannot accept the ticket from me. It can only be delivered by the living."

Is that so? Shen Yu raised his head and looked at the almost endless names around him. Those were children who were abandoned in the suburbs and died.

"I say, you don't really want to send them one by one, do you?" Puss in Boots came to stand in front of Shen Yu, "With your human spirit, you will go crazy."

"Don't worry," Shen Yu raised a smile, "I have experienced fifty years of loneliness in a small house."

"Is there something wrong with your eyes? This is much more than just 50 years." Puss in Boots pointed at the light behind him and asked Shen Yu:

"That is our origin. You should be able to feel the power within. What kind of treasure or benefit is so precious that you would give up such a powerful power and endure such torture?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"There is no treasure or benefit." Shen Yu shrugged and said calmly.

"If there is no treasure or benefit, then why are you doing this?" Hearing this, Puss in Boots' pupils suddenly widened, and he pointed at Shen Yu and said:

"Are you an idiot?"

"This is a promise I made to a child, and even though he is no longer here, I am going to keep it."

When Shen Yu finished speaking, the golden pupils in the ticket station suddenly widened, grabbed the railing with both hands, and looked straight at the back of Shen Yu's head.

Deep in its golden pupils, a white crown rotated quietly, conveying a hint of recognition.

"It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable," Puss in Boots shook his head, "It seems that you are really an idiot. I'm going to rest now."

After saying this, Puss in Boots turned around, lay down beside the little knight, and said:

"Little man, would you like to hear the adventures of the great Puss in Boots?"

Little Knight: "..."

Then Shen Yu turned around, stood in front of the ticket counter, and took the black ticket from the other party.

When the ticket reached Shen Yu's hand, a piece of it slowly fell from the sticky ball of light and turned into a sticky baby on the ground.

However, he held a ticket with the letter "W" on it tightly in his right hand, and after looking around, he crawled towards Shen Yu.

"Your name is A Luo," Shen Yu glanced at the ticket in his hand, handed it to the other party, and gave him a smile.

A Luo nodded, took the black ticket in a daze, turned around and crawled towards the train. Then he seemed to remember something, suddenly stopped, and crawled towards Shen Yu.

"Is there anything I can do for you?" Seeing this, Shen Yu squatted down and looked at the other party.

"Here...here you are," the strange baby handed the ticket with the letter W on it to Shen Yu and said slowly:

"Thank you, I can go see my parents now. They said the lake is very beautiful. Big brother...you can go see it for us."

Chapter 112 Recognition

"That idiot really wants to send them back one by one." The black cat yawned.

"You have a strong will. You have persisted for five months. But humans are not like us who can endure for a long time. I guess they will collapse after hundreds or thousands of years, hehe."

The little knight beside him remained silent, staring blankly ahead.

Shen Yu kept repeating the cycle of taking tickets and giving tickets like a machine, but the pile of documents on the ground did not decrease in the slightest.

"Why are you doing this?" The conductor suddenly asked as he handed over the ticket. "I know your soul doesn't belong to this world. They are the sins of the city and have nothing to do with you. You have no reason to do this."

"I know," Shen Yu said slowly, "I just want to save those children and fulfill my promise. As for the sins of the city, what does it have to do with me?"

"But your behavior is meaningless," the ticket seller looked at the other party and said slowly:

"Do you know how many people die in the city every day, and how many of them are children? Your actions can only wear down your soul and cause your spirit to collapse."

"This reminds me of a story," Shen Yu took the ticket from the other party and slowly told the story:

"After the court was dismissed, there were always many small fish left on the beach, so a child put them into the sea one by one. Later, someone asked, "Can you pick up so many fish? Who will care?"

At this point, Shen Yu handed the ticket to a child, looked at him and said word by word:

"My answer is the same as that child's. I care, this child cares, and the next child cares. I don't care what others say, I just want to do it."

"It's hopeless." Black Cat picked his nose and complained disdainfully, "This is no longer something that can be described as a weirdo or an idiot. He will definitely regret it, provided that he still has the spirit at that time."

But Shen Yu didn't care about what the other party said, but turned around silently and took the other ticket.

The lampposts flickered as usual in the thick fog, but the light was so weak, tiny and pathetic in the endless darkness, as if its existence was meaningless, but it kept flickering, illuminating the road ahead.

One day, one month, one year, one hundred years, one thousand years... the time given to them passed in this endless space. Tickets were taken off one by one and sent to the hands of children who longed for sleep.

Shen Yu is like Sisyphus, doing this work eternally, but the difference is that the names on the handwriting are decreasing one by one, even though there is an almost endless existence behind them.

Shen Yu didn't know how much time had passed. He still had no concept of time in his mind and just silently did repetitive mechanical work.

"It should be OK now," Black Cat slowly stood up and said to Shen Yu, who was like a machine in front of him:

"Idiot, you can always go back."

Hearing this, Shen Yu suddenly froze, turned his head to look at the black cat standing with his hands behind his back, then turned around and took the next ticket.

"Looks like he's really crazy," the black cat shook his head, turned his back and said loudly, "I said that humans are different from us. They are simply unable to withstand time."

Just when Black Cat was feeling proud, a voice suddenly came from behind:
