It was not until now, after hearing the words of the Clearer, that Huang Chen suddenly realized that the real situation might not be as simple as he imagined.

"Why don't the so-called countries in the Old World exist at all? Why can't we find the corresponding wreckage of those warships? Why has even the level of technology regressed?"

The Clearer spoke each word with a calm expression, his voice shrouded in turmoil. "Because the so-called old world is merely an illusion created by the echoes of memory. It's not the memory of this world at all."

Huang Chen's pupils shrank and he was suddenly startled, as if someone had poured ice water on him from head to toe, and his hair stood on end.

"What did you say?"

"Memory remnant... let's call it memory remnant. It does contain the memories of an entire world, for it is the seed that remains after the world collapses."

"It wandered in the Void Sea, then attached itself to our world, using our world as soil to take root and sprout, intending to revive once more."

"And if it succeeds... our world will be destroyed in the truest sense."

After the Clearer finished speaking, his expression remained calm as he looked at everyone silently.

Huang Chen pursed his lips, his mind racing with thoughts that ultimately morphed into one sentence: "You don't feel anything, but your statement is a bit too... fantastical?"

"You don't have to believe it."

"Then...why does the remnant of memory want to revive? Could it be that as a world, it itself possesses consciousness?"

"The world lacks consciousness, but the creatures within it do. No living thing wants to die. This is true whether it's the original world of Remnant Memory or ours."

"Then...is there no way for our world to fight back?"

A person who is dead and only has some memories left can cause so many things, and the whole intact world can only watch?

This is not reasonable.

"Yes, don't you already know that?"

"What."

"Siren."

The Clearer's words remained calm.

Huang Chen was suddenly stunned, thinking that when the Commander Academy was built on a large scale, a large number of Sirens would appear on the front line.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word for a long time.

The other girls were the same, with complicated expressions, as if they were thinking about something.

The Clearer continued, "Kanmusume was born from the remnants of memory, and the Siren is a means of resistance."

"Then why, why would the Sirens attack humans?"

Huang Chen frowned and asked, "If the shipgirls and the Sirens are natural enemies, then what about humans? Why would the Sirens, born from humanity's desire to survive and avoid destruction, attack humans?"

"First, what I said before was about all living things in the world, not just humans," the Cleaner said calmly. "Second, human history has been polluted."

Huang Chen suddenly understood.

For the world, it doesn’t really matter whether humans exist or not. They are no different from other creatures, such as cats and dogs.

Since history has been polluted, let's just destroy all the ship girls and humans, completely erase all traces of the remnants of memory, and start over.

"What about you? Why are you trying to stop this?"

He silently looked at the girl in front of him with a puzzled look on his face. The Siren was created by the world to resist the remnants of memory and destroy ship girls and humans.

As the best among the Sirens, the advanced humanoid siren with wisdom should theoretically lead the Siren army to advance straight ahead and cut the Gordian knot.

But in reality, they did the exact opposite.

"I've said it before. I don't think destroying humans and the Sirens will prevent the destruction of the world. The key lies in the remnants of memory."

The Clearer said calmly, "I have wisdom, normal wisdom, not a brutal warmonger."

"alright."

Huang Chen said he understood, but his mood was still very complicated. The person he originally thought was an invader suddenly became a defender. This situation was really complicated.

He shook his head and continued, "What about the last question? What exactly do you want to do on this front?"

The Clearer raised his head, his dark blue eyes silently looking at him. After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "Looking for you, or rather, to see how you are doing."

"Looking for me? Are you sure?"

"Well, some of them wanted to capture you. My idea was to take you away directly, but the Purifiers and Observers didn't think so. We had some conflicts, but in the end, I was the one who had the final say."

"Why? So what if you found me?"

"Because... you are the first human to come into contact with the remnants of memory."

Chapter 1273 Huang Chen’s Thoughts

Huang Chen's mood was complicated.

It was quite complicated, roughly equivalent to the afternoon I discovered I had traveled through time.

However, this time travel also needs to be put in quotation marks. According to the Clearer, at the beginning of this year, he just happened to wake up in the Wind City in area C11.

The real time travel has to be pushed back to seventy years ago.

He didn't quite understand how he became the first human to come into contact with the remnants of memory?

Add to that the world invasion, and what the Clearer said before.

He had a vague feeling that the role he played at that time was not a glorious one.

"it does not matter."

A gentle voice sounded in my ears.

Huang Chen raised his head and found that the girls were all looking at him silently, with similar gentle looks in their eyes of different colors.

He paused, feeling the waves in his heart calm down a lot, and turned his gaze to the Clearer again, "So, what you mean is..."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming you for this. No one knows the circumstances at the time, and what I said before is nothing more than speculation."

"Guess? So everything you said before was just nonsense?"

Wichita immediately became unhappy and said, as a ship girl, she was said to be an accomplice in the world invasion. This was not something that could make her feel good at all.

“Most of it is speculation, but the key point is not.”

The Clearer stared up at Wichita, his dark blue eyes unafraid. "The world is facing destruction. The root cause is the remnant of memory. The birth of the shipgirls stems from the remnant of memory, and the birth of the sirens is a countermeasure."

Wichita was speechless for a moment, her red eyes looking around subconsciously, looking extremely dazed, a little bewildered, and a little at a loss.

The Clearer turned his gaze to Huang Chen and continued, "You are the first human to come into contact with the remnants of memory. In theory, you should know everything, but in reality..."

In fact, he remembered nothing.

Huang Chen pursed his lips, then suddenly shook his head and said, "No matter what, it was the Sirens who attacked humans."

His words were calm and his heart was calm.

Even if he doesn't believe in himself, he will believe in his girl and help a destroyed world to parasitize and revive in another world?

Companies can't do this kind of thing.

Having said so much, it is just the one-sided statement of the purgers. It is unknown how much is true and how much is false.

Even if everything is true.

The remnant of memory allows the ship girls to coexist peacefully with humans, but the sirens originally born in this world only know how to fight and destroy...

After hearing his words, the Clearer fell into a brief silence, then said, "Of course I know that."

Huang Chen also looked at her silently, and then said, "So, you guys did so many things on the front line, actually just to see what I know?"

"Well, that's about it." The Clearer nodded, but a look of horror flashed in his eyes, "I just didn't expect..."

"Hehe, there are many things you haven't thought of."

Huang Chen sneered, touched his chin, and began to think about what to do with the Clearer.

No matter how lofty the conversation was, whether it was about the echoes of memories or the destruction of the world, life still had to go on.

It's impossible to skip dinner while talking about world affairs, right?

Everyone knows about this matter now, and we will naturally study it slowly in the future. The truth will naturally come out in time.

The more critical issue now is how to deal with the cleaners.

Sink it directly? According to what was said just now, this is obviously not appropriate, but putting it back directly is also not appropriate.

He pursed his lips and hesitated for a long time, then suddenly asked, "Where are the Purifiers and Observers?"

"What? Still want to capture everyone?" The Eliminator raised an eyebrow, then suddenly laughed and said, "But I have to warn you, if we sink everyone at once, the Sirens on the front lines might become less controllable."

"I didn't say sink it."

Huang Chen shook his head, but didn't intend to explain too much.

The Clearer said so much, but he couldn't tell whether it was true or not, so he decided to recover some memories first.

Based on his last experience of observing the Purifier, he should be able to recover some memory fragments.

Maybe we’ll find some truths from seventy years ago.

Now that I've met the Clearer, I might as well go check out the Observer. I'll use both methods and take a drastic measure to see what's going on.

The Clearer hesitated for a moment, seemingly realizing that the current situation didn't allow her to negotiate, or perhaps for some other reason, he finally said slowly, "They are now in the fortress base."

"Well, lead the way."

Huang Chen said simply, then looked at everyone and said loudly, "Everyone, go back to the yacht and follow the Clearer to the fortress base first."

As soon as he finished speaking, the girls started to move.

Although there are all kinds of confusion and thoughts in our hearts, we all know that just worrying cannot solve the problem.

In just a moment, the sea, which was considered to be surging with people just now, suddenly returned to calm, and Wichita and the others returned to their yacht.

Huang Chen looked at the Clearer and said again, "Don't try to escape, you can't get away."

"Why should I try to escape? It's actually a good thing for us that you are willing to take the initiative to solve the problem." The Clearer smiled, seeming to be somewhat happy.

She walked directly into the cockpit and instructed New Jersey, "Sail northwest 35 degrees."

"You're really welcome."

New Jersey raised his eyebrows but said nothing and quickly started the yacht.

Soon after, all the other yachts also started to move. The small yachts moved together and passed over the sea, leaving behind white trails.

Some of the Siren mass-produced ships that had not yet completely sunk had their sterns slightly exposed, burning with flames and emitting smoke.

Huang Chen sat in the cabin, feeling calm.

But Hua Jia didn't look calm at all. Although he was holding a magazine in his hand, he didn't seem to be reading it at all. His sky-blue eyes looked over here from time to time, then quickly looked away.

"Do you have to do this? I'm not going to eat you."

"I, I just didn't expect..." Hua Jia's eyes sparkled, "I didn't expect the commander to have such an experience."

"Well, I have a feeling you're thinking of more than just that."

Huang Chen shook his head and said, "Tell me what you are worried about."

Hua Jia smiled awkwardly, hesitated for a long time, and finally said slowly, "It's not that I'm entangled, it's just... I was born less than twenty years ago."

"What exactly do you want to say?"

Huang Chen frowned, feeling inexplicably that he shouldn't ask so carefully.

"I didn't expect the commander to be an old man already..."

Hua Jia blinked and said weakly.

Chapter 1274 You call this a fortress?

The yacht fleet headed northwest and arrived at the border of the sea area after about an hour.

Going further, there is an endless expanse of white ice, thickly covering the sea surface and extending for an unknown distance.

The ice reflected the sunlight, making it a little dazzling.

"We need to walk ahead."
