Qi Xu calmly looked at the girl standing in front of him without saying anything. It would be pointless to say anything anyway, so he might as well wait until she had also used the memory crystal.
The tonsils never spoke or waited for a response; they simply said, "Look into my eyes."
Then he placed the last bone in his hand onto his own skeleton. Like the others, the skeleton slowly condensed into a ball of white light and flew straight towards her.
Fragments of memory, their glimmering light seeping into her skin through her hair, resembled countless tiny stars swirling in her eyes.
Qi Xu stood quietly to the side, not leaving. He moved closer, looking into her eyes. At first, he couldn't see anything, but later...
Fragmented images began to appear in her pupils: a broken road, burning flags, and silhouettes of many figures standing back to back in front of the black fog, almost filling the entire road.
The crowd's hair and clothes fluttered in the wind. The girl standing at the front stood ramrod straight, gripping her twin swords tightly, her eyes fixed on the depths of the black mist, exuding a calm and awe that preceded a great battle.
The screen suddenly froze, as if an invisible hand had pressed the pause button. In the long, deathly silence, only the hissing of churning black mist echoed in my ears.
Qi Xu felt a tightness in his heart. Was that... the "Qi Xu" of the past?!
It's a bit of a shame, since it's someone else's memory, we can't see the specific details clearly, nor can we see who the figures behind everyone are...
When her eyes lit up again, the world was ablaze with crimson, the black mist had turned into a blood mist, and corpses lay strewn across the broken highway.
The many figures standing side by side vanished, leaving only a solitary silhouette standing against the light amidst the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, its hem stained crimson...
Where are they? Are they all...dead?
The tonsils, which never speak, trembled slightly, and soon opened their eyes, the confusion in their eyes replaced by clarity.
She suddenly smiled and turned to look at Qi Xu, her voice hoarse from just breaking free from her memories: "So this isn't the first time we've fought side by side. I knew it, I'd be attracted to you the moment I saw you."
Qi Xu didn't understand why, after the tonsils never spoke and he awakened a new round of memories, his attitude was completely different from others.
Shadow Killer was equally curious and couldn't help but speak up, "Did you see clearly? It was her...it was her who killed everyone. Wasn't the scene we saw different? We believed her and followed her, but she killed us all to obtain that supreme power!"
The tonsils, never speaking, glared at him with dissatisfaction. "I've already said I don't want to talk to idiots."
However, he did offer a brief explanation: "Based on the memories from the recent 'memory fragments,' that's indeed the case, but..."
But what? The statement that the tonsils never speak was cut short when the scene shifted abruptly.
The scorched earth beneath their feet had transformed into a cold, smooth obsidian floor, and all around them was an endless, dark purple dome. The only striking feature was the blinding red countdown light hanging above each person's head.
