Chapter 413 The Secret of the Past Life, Final Ranking [1 Update]
Ilna will never forget this name in this life, no, in two lives.
For her, this name is a constant reminder of her failures and shame.
Just as rumored, with the help of hypnosis, she recalled memories of her past life.
When reporters came to interview her, she didn't hide anything and told them frankly and openly.
After all, no one would believe something like this if it were told to others.
Even Ilna herself was initially incredulous, but later accepted it with great joy.
How many people can be like her?
However, Ilna did lie about some things.
She is not a scientist.
Because her name doesn't exist in the history of O continent, and she wasn't recognized by the scientific community at the time.
In her previous life, she died at the age of twenty-eight.
17th century, 1639.
She died in prison, covered in wounds and having not eaten for several days.
They were literally starved to death.
Ilna was very unwilling.
In terms of intelligence, she is definitely on par with Gwen Brown.
Even if it's just a little bit off, it's nothing.
Despite being under Simon Brand's tutelage, he never saw her, only imparting all his knowledge to Gwen Brown.
Ilna simply could not accept this differential treatment.
However, Gwen Brown herself is not flamboyant and has no intention of entering the scientific research community.
She participated in many of Simon Brand's experimental projects, but she was not credited or asked for any honors.
But Ilna still harbored deep hatred for Simon Brand.
If he were to involve her in the experimental project, she would be able to secure a place in the scientific community and achieve unparalleled success.
But no.
Simon Brandt prevented her from participating in core research.
In that era, although technology was developing rapidly and people's minds were being liberated, some outdated aspects of life had not been completely eradicated.
In addition to war, there were also disasters such as plagues.
But none of these can compare to that dark period of history.
It was a persecution campaign that lasted for three centuries, sweeping across the entire continent of O for three hundred years.
It was not until 1780 that it was officially discontinued.
The witch trials, also known as the "witch hunts."
Those who are persecuted are far more than just genuine fortune tellers.
Most of them are innocent women.
Any woman labeled a "witch" was to be immediately beheaded and her body displayed in public, without any evidence, and then her body would be burned.
The number of wronged souls is incalculable.
Of course, Ilna had no idea that fortune tellers existed in this world.
Although she has a high level of scientific expertise, she still belongs to the general population.
Alchemy and astrology are not things that will be open to her.
Unless, of course, she was able to get into Norton University at that time.
At that time, Norton University was not open to the public and did not enroll students, so most people did not know that such a university existed.
Because of her hatred for Simon Brand, Ilna accused his wife of being a witch to the Vatican.
Coincidentally, at that time, a plague broke out in the city, killing many people and leaving many refugees.
Simon Brand's wife is an ordinary woman who doesn't understand academics.
But she was kind and would personally make porridge and pastries to help the refugees in the city.
Then Ilna spread rumors that the plague was brought by Simon Brand's wife.
At that time, the Papacy still held considerable power, and so an innocent woman was burned alive in public.
Simon Brand was deeply affected by this and left the city, returning to the small town where he used to live.
Ilna readily agreed.
Anyway, she has already learned a lot, and she can go to another country to further her studies.
Sooner or later, she will also be showered with glory.
However, she herself did not manage to escape unscathed.
Gwen Brown, who had disappeared for a year, suddenly returned and sent her to prison.
That prison did not belong to the Papacy, nor to any royal family; Ilna had never seen it before.
She suffered terribly inside and eventually died a miserable death.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself more than three hundred years in the future.
This is an era of rapid technological development, and many of the ideas that scientists had in the past have come true.
Ilna knew her chance had come.
She wants to stand on the world stage and let Simon Brand know that his previous choices were wrong.
But she never expected that she would fail again, and fail completely.
"You are her! You must be her!" Ilna's face was contorted. "If you weren't her, how could you know Simon's manuscript so clearly?"
“Interesting.” Ying Zijin raised her eyes and said calmly, “I just went to the O Continent Museum the day before yesterday. Simon’s manuscript is in Hall 1.”
She knew who Ilna was.
A traitor to Simon Brand's faction.
He was the one who directly caused her teacher's wife's death.
He was also the person she personally sent to prison.
If she hadn't rushed back from the ancient martial arts world in China in time, Simon Brand would have gone insane sooner or later.
The line between genius and madness can often be blurred.
She truly never expected that a hypnosis session would awaken this traitor.
Ying Zijin's eyes were slightly cold.
She now has reason to suspect that this was a premeditated hypnosis session.
Something unusual must be going on; we can't let any abnormality go unnoticed.
However, they still haven't found out who the hypnotist was who hypnotized Ilna back then.
None of the hypnotists on the NOK Hypnotist Ranking match up with me.
Indeed, some reclusive hunters are very powerful, but they are not on the list.
Fu Yunshen raised an eyebrow: "Yes, I can vouch for that. I went with her."
The people around looked even more astonished and pointed and whispered.
"Is she crazy?"
"Isn't this just getting a zero? This prodigy's mental fortitude is far too weak."
“I’m a huge fan of Simon Brand, and he doesn’t have any apprentice like the one you’re talking about.”
Simon Brandt's student, and also a scientist who has gone down in history.
That is what makes him great.
"Of course you don't know!" Ilna roared, her face flushed red, and she started jumping up and down. "Because she's low-key, Simon respects her, so he never writes her name!"
This is differential treatment.
She too left no name, yet she is a disgrace.
"You're here to get revenge on me, aren't you?" Ilna was even more agitated. "Why do you always try to ruin my honor? Why?!"
Ying Zijing didn't speak, but just looked at her with a very cold and indifferent gaze.
"You still dare to look at me like that? You still dare? I—" Ilna roared, but her mind couldn't take it anymore, her eyes rolled back, and she suddenly fainted.
The onlookers quickly took a step back, afraid of getting contaminated.
Now, even if the guard didn't want to go forward, he had no choice but to.
Several guards helped the unconscious Ilna up and then led her out of the corridor.
The captain of the guard stepped forward apologetically: "Miss Ying, I am truly sorry for the disturbance and inconvenience caused to you."
Ying Zijing pulled the suit jacket that Fu Yunshen had draped over her closer, her voice calm: "It's nothing."
"Leave professional matters to the professionals." Fu Yunshen said calmly. "Xuesheng will handle everything. Yaoyao, go and rest first."
Hypnosis can awaken memories or erase them.
To put it bluntly, Ilna recovered because of hypnosis.
Once Yu Xuesheng breaks the hypnosis, she will revert to her former self and will no longer be a child prodigy.
This punishment is worse than sending her to prison again.
Ying Zijin nodded: "Let's go."
**
Inside the venue.
Now it's time for the judges to give their final scores.
Apart from Ilna's team, the teams from various countries and regions were very excited.
Zuo Li was also a little nervous, and raised his hand to loosen his tie.
Team competitions are fine, but the individual competition format is a bit complicated, making it difficult to calculate the total score.
Because of Ying Zijing's actions, Zuo Li's mind was filled with the word "awesome," and he didn't even think about calculating the score himself.
Beside Zuo Li, the teacher from Helga University looked quite displeased.
He didn't even pay attention to the contestants from countries M and F, let alone China.
These students are no match for Ilna at all.
But now, they have not only lost the game, they have also lost their character.
Just then, my phone rang.
"What? Ilna has been taken to the hospital?" The teacher's expression changed immediately upon hearing this. "Okay, I'll go right now and have the psychiatrist and neurologist take a look."
After saying that, he left in a hurry, not even waiting for the final rankings to be released.
Zuo Li snorted coldly: "Trash."
He couldn't be bothered to argue with these people; his gaze was fixed intently on the big screen.
"The final scores have been tallied by the panel of twenty-four judges." The host stood on the stage. "The full score is one hundred points. Please take a look."
The big screen came to life, and the final score appeared quickly.
