Chapter 2389 False Memory

Nice noticed that when Ferro mentioned "the person he met", his expression was obviously confused, and he would think for a few seconds from time to time, like an old man whose mind was becoming dull.

"What does the person you are talking about look like?" Nice asked.

Ferro pondered for nearly ten seconds before speaking: "Should be a very ordinary appearance? In my memory, there seems to be no outstanding physical features..."

Ferro's description was very redundant. Hearing this, Angel and Nice couldn't help but frown.

"Stop first." Nice stopped Ferro's narration.

In Ferro's puzzled eyes, Nice raised his finger, and a halo flowed on his fingertips: "I think you are in a wrong state now, wake up first."

After speaking, the halo on Nice's fingertips rushed into Ferro's eyebrows.

Level 2 trick, Soul Sound, can wash and purify the negative effects of uncleanness, filth, etc. At the same time, it can also calm the impetuous mind and have a certain effect of clearing the mind.

The Soul Sound used by the soul expert is very effective. Ferro's eyes, which were full of confusion and hesitation, became clear at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It was not until then that Nice retracted the soul power that had been continuously released: "How do you feel now?"

Ferro let out a long breath, rubbed his temples and said: "It seems to be better."

Nice: "What happened to you just now? I felt that you were hesitant and kept saying some inconclusive words."

Ferro's expression was a little strange, and there was confusion and a trace of fear in his eyes: "I don't know. As long as I think of him, I feel like my mind is broken."

"In my memory, he is like... like..."

Seeing that Ferro showed signs of dullness again, Nice quickly released the sound of the soul again.

Ferro waved his hand: "Not now, I'm fine. I was just... thinking about the wording."

After a pause, Ferro continued: "In my memory, he is like a fake photo."

Fake photo. It was obviously his own memory, but he used "fake" as an adjective. This description made Nice and Angel feel a kind of speechless absurdity.

Nice: "Why do you say that?"

Ferro: "Because it looks like it's real, but if you look closely, it seems fake."

Ferro explained this feeling in detail: When he recalled it at first, everything was normal, and the pictures in his memory were coherent and bright.

But when he began to talk about what happened after he met that person, he naturally began to focus all his attention on "that person" in his memory.

At this time, it was getting more and more wrong.

It was obviously a normal memory picture, but it began to change. The more he explored, the more blurred it became. The more he thought about that person and recalled that person's appearance, his thinking began to become obviously dull, as if there was a force preventing him from thinking deeply about the other person.

For this reason, when Nice asked about the person's appearance, Ferro described it according to his memory at first, but the more he described it, the heavier the feeling of "separation" became...

"It's like my memory is preventing me from peeking and describing the other person's face." Ferro said this and couldn't help asking himself: "But this is obviously my own memory."

It is precisely because of this strange sign that Ferro uses "fake photos" to describe it.

The photo refers to the memory picture in his mind.

But now, the memory picture is covered with the title of "false", which makes Ferro suddenly doubt his life.

He now doubts what is true in the memory? Did he really meet that person? Or is it actually his imagination?

After listening to Ferro's description, Nice pondered for a moment and said to Angel: "Do you think this is a bit like the characteristics of soul text?"

Angel: "It does have the taste of soul text, but the effect is still a little different."

Soul text is that after people shift their sight, their memory will automatically blur the text content and it will be difficult to recall.

Ferro's description is that if you don't touch it, everything is normal. But once you recall that person, even the memory in your mind will begin to become blurred and affect yourself.

It's like a silent virus in Ferro's memory.

But this virus only targets Ferro's memory of "that person".

Nice: "Soul text is encrypted text. It cannot be remembered because it is backed by the Quest world. It is the established rule of the Quest world. Its status is transcendent, so it has such an effect."

"According to this logic, if Ferro was not attacked... then is there such a possibility that the person Ferro met was transcendent and could blur or even distort the rules to a certain extent."

Nice's words did not get the interface of others because his speculation was a bit too jumpy.

Nice himself also understood that his speculation was too groundless: "This is just something I suddenly thought of just now. It is a kind of...inspiration? I personally believe in this kind of unfounded intuition because this intuition has saved my life."

After the voice fell, Nice turned to Reynolds without waiting for Angel and Ferro to react: "Boy, do you think my intuition is true or false?"

Reynolds, who was sitting quietly and listening with relish, did not expect Nice to suddenly call his name, and the whole person was shocked.

"I'm asking you a question."

Reynolds: "I, I don't know...but when I encounter danger, I also trust my intuition. I think I can trust it, right?"

Nice turned to look at Angel: "Even the lucky mascot agrees with my statement. It seems that my speculation is very likely to be true."

Reynolds said weakly: "I have a name, I'm not lucky..."

Before Reynolds finished speaking, the roar came again along with the air waves, and everyone entered the state of wooden people again.

When the effect of the air wave weakened, Angel frowned and looked in the direction of the "lair": "What exactly happened over there?"

Nice: "Do you feel that this kind of air wave smells like the power of law?"

Angel nodded.

"A creature that can use the power of law must be of high status, right? Could it be the person that Ferro met?"

Angel did not comment on Nice's speculation. Nice's previous guesses may have some internal logic and can be regarded as "speculations", but this time, they are really just empty guesses.

Nice shrugged: "I made a reasonable inference on the premise of trusting my intuition."

Nice: "However, speculation is still speculation. The specific situation still needs evidence. In this way, I will check Ferro first to see if he has been cursed."

There is a problem with Ferro's memory. This is certain, but it has not yet been determined whether his memory problem is due to the influence of that person's personality or whether Ferro has suffered some unknown negative effects. Therefore, Nice is going to do an overall inspection of Ferro first.

Although Angel can also perform similar tests, as a soul wizard, Nice's understanding of the human body and soul is definitely better than Angel's.

While Nice was inspecting Ferro, Angel said to Reynolds: "Where is the entrance to the base laboratory? Take me there to see it."

Under the leadership of Reynolds, they walked into the depths of the fog.

Soon, Angel saw a small semicircular fortress arched from the ground.

This small fortress made of steel does not look big, it is about the same size as a one-person tent sewn by herdsmen out of animal skins.

From the appearance, the entire fortress is formed in one piece, and there is no trace of fitting... Of course, it is also possible that the trace of fitting is inside.

"This is where we entered the laboratory before." Reynolds said as he walked around the fortress: "There used to be a light door here, but now it's gone... It should have been closed."

While Reynolds was talking, Angel also walked to the edge of the fortress. He directly stretched out his hand towards the fortress.

When Reynolds saw this, he quickly shouted: "No! This will trigger the mechanism..."

Before Reynolds could finish speaking, Angel's hand had already pressed on the metal shell of the fortress. But what Reynolds didn't expect was that the mechanism he expected did not appear.

It's as calm as if the fortress is just a piece of broken metal.

"What's going on?" Reynolds asked doubtfully, "Didn't the laboratory turn on the mechanism?"

Seeing Reynolds' eager expression, Angel explained: "There is a layer of hidden magic patterns on the surface of the fortress. The mechanism you mentioned is also caused by the magic patterns. As long as you find the non-triggering point of the magic patterns, it will not Touch the mechanism.”

Angel's explanation was very simple, but only those who have truly come into contact with magic patterns will understand how difficult this operation is.

The trigger point of the magic pattern is often not a single point, it is a linked trigger surface, and it will constantly shift with the flow of energy. A magic pattern warlock with profound knowledge can link the trigger point with the whole. Angel would not dare to use this kind of magic pattern at will.

Although the magic pattern in front of him looks complicated and has a large linkage area, in Angel's eyes, it is flawed after all.

With Angel's control over the magic patterns, he can easily find non-trigger points. However, anyone else, not even the master alchemist from the R&D Institute, would be able to do it as easily as Angel.

After explaining the key to the magic pattern to Reynolds, Angel began to observe the magic pattern based on the direction of energy.

The silver-white metal fortress looked smooth and clean on the outside, but in Angel's field of vision, it was filled with gleaming lines.

Although there are some flaws in the magic patterns, the concept of the layout has a sense of foreignness. This inspired Angel so much that he couldn't help but immerse himself in it.

Time passed by minute by minute.

When Angel came back to his senses, he found that Nice and others had also walked over.

"When did you come here?"

Nice: "I've been here for a long time, but seeing how serious you are, I didn't want to disturb you. What, did you find anything?"

Angel nodded: "Wizard Ferro is right. There is indeed a very complicated magic array carved at the entrance of the laboratory... However, the magic pattern can only see the exposed part of the fortress now. More magic arrays are visible." The pattern is hidden underground, maybe even inside, so it’s difficult to determine the specific situation.”

"That means it can't be opened?"

Angel: "It's true that it can't be opened by normal methods, but it's not completely impossible to get inside."

"Is there any other way?" Nice asked curiously.

"You only need to crack part of the magic pattern and find the gap to enter." Angel did not explain how to crack part of the magic pattern, but instead asked: "What is the situation over there? After Ferro checked, is there anything abnormal? ?”

Nice shook his head: "There is no sign of curse or other negative effects."

Fero: "I checked it myself and didn't feel anything unusual. Either this negative effect is quite powerful and beyond our level. Or, as Nice said... It's not the curse, but the person's problem."
