I, the final BOSS of the beta test server!

Another azure original book merged into his body, and Rast's remaining original book space became 1/3.

According to the description on the light screen, the skill of Infinite Martial Arts is a growth-oriented skill. Every time you swing the sword, the power of your sword skills will be permanently increased. Naturally, the sooner you equip it, the better.

Of course, the weapon that Rast is good at using is not a sword, but a gun.

However, since the name of this skill is "Infinite Martial Arts" instead of "Infinite Sword Swinging", it means that spear skills should also be included in the scope of improvement.

Who says that gun skills are not martial arts and gun techniques are not magic?

Last was looking forward to the day when he could stack this stacking skill to the limit and kill the evil god with one shot.

After doing all this, Rast's mind moved slightly.

The black tower world before him, called the "Fool's Library," vanished like a dream bubble, and the surrounding world was once again shrouded in darkness.

He could feel that the night light flowing around him was gradually diluting and becoming fainter.

According to what Hiltina had said to Last before, when the night surrounding him completely disappears, he will break away from the echoes of history and the night world and appear at the entrance to the real night world.

However, before that, Rast still had some things to do.

First of all, there is the problem of Night Blade himself.

The "Library of Fools" was not a gift from the night world, but had been bound to the depths of his soul long before.

Then, there is a great possibility that this Night Blade, which is said to encompass everything in the world and all the inventions and original skills of human civilization, is related to his own past.

The past before he entered Deep Blue Harbor after experiencing hundreds of years of cycles.

And regarding that possible past, Last only knows one clue.

Also, before leaving the Night World and heading to the new real world that Hiltina had mentioned...

He really wanted to go back to that place again.

Rast's mind moved slightly.

The next moment, the emblem on his chest suddenly turned into a stream of silver light and fell into Rast's right hand.

The gun body is silver-white all over, reflecting a cold metallic luster, like an iron moon.

Iron-patterned moon.

It has been with Rast for hundreds of years, and after he cleared the Deep Blue Harbor Reverberation, it was upgraded to a revolver with heraldic attire.

Last pointed the muzzle of Iron Moon at his temple and slowly pulled the trigger.

boom--

……

When Rast regained consciousness, what came into view was the emerald green hillside.

Soft green grass stretches along the hillside, below which is a lake like a silver mirror. Next to the lake lies a quiet town. In the distance, you can see rolling hills with their peaks covered with snow.

The wind blew across the hillside, rustling the treetops above. The white windmill next to the town was slowly spinning, and the windmill blades cast a huge shadow on the lake.

A melodious and pleasant sonata sounded in my ears.

The girl holding the bagpipe was sitting on the hillside not far away. The light shone through the woods and fell on her fair cheeks, and her long light golden hair reflected slightly.

When the girl found that Rast had woken up, she put down the bagpipe in surprise. Her skin seemed transparent in the afternoon sun.

"Laster, you're awake."

"Well, Xiao Ai, how long have I been sleeping?"

Last rubbed his eyes. The scenery of the border town before him was so melodious that it seemed like a dream from the past.

In fact, Last couldn't tell whether this was a dream or reality. He only knew that this border town was called Canaan.

The blonde girl in front of him was named Amis. Like him, she was a resident of the border town of Canaan. She was born and raised here, and spent countless simple yet peaceful days on this green hillside.

Amys sat down in the shade next to Luster, tilting her head and thinking for a moment: "About an hour?"

She stared into Luster's eyes with her sky-blue eyes and suddenly asked, "Luster, did you have that dream again? Did you enter that place called Deep Blue Harbor?"

"Yeah." Rust nodded.

"So you didn't do anything stupid in your dream this time?" A serious light flashed in Amis's eyes.

"I didn't commit suicide by jumping into the molten iron in the steel mill. I didn't take addictive hallucinogens for excitement. I didn't..." She paused and coughed lightly, "I didn't go back to look for that lead dancer in the black stockings."

"No." Luster shook his head.

"That's good."

As if she had breathed a sigh of relief, Amys took out two large paper-wrapped packages from the basket next to her woolen boots.

She handed over one of the packets: "Today's afternoon tea is sandwiches."

I took the sandwich and the moment I opened the package, the rich aroma filled the air.

Luster took a bite of the sandwich, feeling the crispness of the thin-sliced ​​bread mixed with the juices of the grilled meat spreading in his mouth.

This is why he never studied cooking in Deep Blue Harbor and can only make one fried rice.

Last thought for a moment and said softly, "However, my experience in Deep Blue Harbor this time was somewhat special."

"Well, what happened?" Amys seemed to be in a good mood. She took out iced tea from the small basket and handed it to Rast.

Luster took the iced tea and took a sip. “I met a girl I’d never seen in Deep Blue Harbor before.”

"She's very special..."

Chapter 30 Miss Hiltina is such a good person

"A very special girl?"

The blonde girl's hand holding the cup paused in mid-air.

"Is that girl pretty? What's her name?"

"Well, her name is Hiltina. I'm not sure if it's her real name, but judging by Hiltina's personality, she probably doesn't like using pseudonyms."

Amy's hand trembled, and the ice tea in the cup almost spilled out.

"Can you tell me your story with her?"

Luster nodded. "I first met her at the hotel where I worked. She was in disguise, but I knew every guest who visited the hotel during that time, so I still noticed something was wrong."

"So, I used the excuse of accompanying her to drink to test her..."

……

The wind blowing across the hillside is very gentle.

The slanting afternoon sunlight shines through the leaves on the treetops, casting mottled shadows.

Rast was lying on the grass talking, while the blonde girl was sitting beside him listening.

She was indeed a good listener. When Last started talking, she would listen attentively, nodding and asking questions from time to time, never being perfunctory.

The quiet time filled with golden colors passed by quietly.

"Then, Hiltina pulled me out of the icy water."

"She held me as I drifted in the sea, avoiding the shockwaves from the explosions, and she didn't let go until everything was over."

Last smiled and said, "To be honest, when Hiltina came to rescue me at first, I was quite dissatisfied because it disrupted my plans..."

"Everything that happened before this was all within my plan. I know every detail and every moment in Deep Blue Harbor perfectly, and nothing will slip out of my control."

"But after that, everything was out of my control and rushed in a direction that no one could predict."

"Fortunately, the final outcome was pretty good."

"Yeah... Fortunately." Amys blinked, with a hint of fear still lingering in her sky-blue eyes.

It was as if she herself was there, trapped on the watchtower by the tide of the Iron Cross, with no way to go up to the sky and no way to go down to the earth.

"But... Miss Hiltina, you're really a good person."

"Oh?" Luster raised his head: "Why?"

When Amis first heard the name of Hiltina, she still had some inexplicable hostility towards her.

But as Rast finished telling the story of himself and Hiltina, the vigilance and caution in the blonde girl's eyes dissipated a lot.

"This may seem a bit selfish... but I am truly grateful to Miss Hiltina."

"If it weren't for her, then you, Rast, would have been left in Deep Blue Harbor again, trapped in that long time loop."

The blonde girl's sky-blue eyes sparkled.

"Although it seems like just a dream to me, you also said that everything in that Deep Blue Harbor is no different from the real world to you."

"You may even spend more time there than you did in Canaan."

Amys sighed softly and looked at Luster helplessly: "Luster, you have been like this since you were a child. You never know how to cherish yourself."

"But I can't follow you to the other world you're going to... I can't be by your side, watching over you and stopping you from messing around and ruining yourself."

She blinked and said, "It's a good thing, Rust, you met Miss Hiltina."

"From your story, Miss Hiltina seems quite reliable and trustworthy..."

"With her here, even in that world where I'm not here, you won't be left without someone to take care of you, Rust."

Luster couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Amys's words sounded as if he was a burden who needed to be taken care of.

"It's a shame I can't meet Miss Hiltina. Otherwise, I would definitely bring her a homemade apple pie as a gift and ask her to take good care of you in the future."

"Ah, is it this late already?"

As she spoke, Amis seemed to notice the sky gradually turning dusk and stood up hurriedly.

"It's time for dinner, and I made some porridge in advance..."

……

The two of them walked down the hillside dyed red by the setting sun, stepping on fallen leaves and weeds.

The way down the mountain was sometimes blocked by a small stream, so Amys lifted her white skirt, held Rast's hand, and walked across the stream on the round, soft pebbles.

Soon, the border town with a white windmill at the foot of the mountains came into view.

Last and Amys walked on the gravel path, looking at the smoke rising from every household in the town in the distance. They felt their hearts gradually calm down, and they broke free from the tense state they had in Deep Blue Harbor before.

The blood and fire of the port, the evil spirit, the pollution, the pursuit of the Iron Cross...

Everything that I experienced in Deep Blue Port not long ago seemed to become infinitely distant and no longer important.

They soon entered the town. Along the way, townspeople would occasionally stop what they were doing to greet the two of them, and Amys would politely respond one by one while holding Last's hand.

Last looked at the scenery in the town and the peaceful-looking townspeople. He felt quite cordial and familiar, but when he thought about it carefully, he could not remember the details.

The two of them stopped in front of a wooden house.

The decoration inside the wooden house is very simple, but it is kept very clean and exudes a unique warmth.

In the kitchen, in a copper pot, overcooked porridge was bubbling.

"Ah, thank goodness I made it in time."

Amys hurried over to pick up the porridge and started busying herself in the kitchen.

Bacon, bean pie, pudding, lean meat porridge, black bread with cheese...all kinds of dishes appeared on the table in front of Rast one after another.

Looking at the blonde girl busy in the kitchen and the simple but neatly arranged furniture in the room, the familiar yet strange feeling of confusion in Last's mind instantly intensified.

His memory has always been flawed.

To use the words from a famous detective novel in Rast's previous life, human memory is like a small attic, and when the attic is full, once new things come in, they will replace the old things.

Of course, most people could not learn or memorize enough in their entire lives to fill that little attic, but Last was an exception.

He has experienced tens of thousands of cycles in Deep Blue Harbor for hundreds of years, which is equivalent to several lifetimes for an ordinary person.

Such a large number of complicated memories and experiences were enough to fill up the attic of his mind, making his memory become damaged and even difficult to maintain normal mental functioning, leading to the collapse of his personality.

The reason why Last can still maintain normal thinking is because he learned mental suggestion and self-hypnosis in the cycle of Deep Blue Harbor.

He used self-suggestion to force himself to forget most of the useless memories in the loop and only retain the useful information.
