Chapter 1253 The Serene Forest, Why is the Wake-Up Thinker Speechless? (Part 5)
[Speechless, Mimi exclaimed: "This person is so difficult to get along with!"]
"What I am speaking to you here today is not a remnant of memory, but the crystallization of my science, a noble, pure, certain, and unquestionable truth."
Through the art of alchemy, I shattered my soul, refined it into gold, and buried it here. I recorded these words so that those who come after me may understand where they should go.
Mimi never expected that alchemy could do such a thing. To this, Na Kexia replied: "Anything is possible, but be careful, alchemy is not a foolproof art. What you hear depends on the amount of soul I give up, not something created out of nothing."
Mimi, who was interrupted again, began to doubt whether this was an echo of her memory. At that moment, Xia said, "Because my calculations are so detailed, I also know that you have discovered that the Tree Garden suffered a disaster due to the Kuroshio Current, and you even mistakenly believe that the scholars have been wiped out."
But you are sorely mistaken—the sages had already managed to evacuate most of the people before the Black Tide arrived, and they are now on their way to the holy city of Ohma.
Only a small number of scholars remained with me to defend the Tree Court. If nothing unexpected happens, the flame of Serhis should arrive in Ohma at the same time soon…
…But since you've read this message, it means an accident has already happened.
Now, proceed to the Throne of Enlightenment—where the harvest, and our remains, await.
"The project is now complete, and that concludes my remarks."
Doctor: No, it would have been better if you hadn't said anything. Now that you've said it... how come his memory echo can still understand Mimi's words?
...It's even more terrifying if you can't understand it!
March 7th: My brain... is about to explode...
Bai E: So it wasn't a remnant of memory, but a fragment of the soul! That scared me to death! I thought Teacher Xia could even calculate and store mysterious beings like Mimi and nameless visitors from outer space into her database... Wait! What?! What fragment?! (Sharp explosion)
Feng Jin: ...At that moment, Teacher Xia!
Xia Die: ...? ? ?
Rheindorf: Shatter the soul and refine it into gold... Hmm...
Abedo: That technique is quite... exquisite.
Bai'er: This isn't right! Teacher! Don't tamper with souls like that!!!
Xia at that moment: →_→…Oh.
Feng Jin: Oh, what do you mean?!
Xia Die: (sniffle) Teacher Xia, I can't even find Cenastos right now, so I'm afraid I can't retrieve your soul from the River Styx... Please don't touch your soul so casually.
Na Kexia: Hmph, even if I really entered the River Styx, I might just jump out on my own.
Bai Er: Is that the point?!
Qiong: Teacher, why are you so talkative...
Doctor: Although it's a fragment of a soul, the information... seems to have been entered into the system, rather than being directly communicated with a person...
Fujimaru Ritsuka: Oh no, so actually, the previous 'ultimate move' wasn't even dealt with before another 'ultimate move' came along.
Traveler: ...To be honest, even the scholars before me weren't...this amazing, were they?!
Black Tower: That's quite interesting.
Administrator Q: →_→ After all, Ceres, being a rational Titan, would definitely want to find the smartest person in all of Onpharos to be his successor.
Na Ke Xia: That's very picky.
Kaze Sumire: So, teacher, are you planning to skip the previous topic?
Xia Die: We'll keep an eye on you once we get back.
Bai'e: +1!
That Summer: →_→…@Aglaia, look at the Golden Blood under your command.
Aglaia: That's your student. Also, you'd better behave yourself, or you'll end up getting yourself killed while everyone else is fine.
That Moment Xia: Hmph
Doctor: So you really can't explain how they knew the visitor could see the memory echoes and could perfectly converse with Mimi, who doesn't speak human language...? Even if it's a flawless plan, there should be a database to support it... But where did Onpharos get the information about the nameless visitor and Mimi?
That summer: We don't have 'Mimi' or 'Nameless Guest' here, so of course I don't know how 'I' did it ^_Q
Admin Q: →_→…You know what, I didn’t even notice…How could Mimi’s identity be calculated so accurately…That doesn’t make sense, does it?
That summer: It seems that the pink mammal has quite a background.
Aha: Hehe, no matter how complicated it is, it can't possibly be a memory wielder, can it? It's definitely not a memory wielder! Absolutely not!
Admin Q: →_→…I'm speechless. Ah, you actually told the truth.
March 7th: LOL, can the envoy really be a cheat code for Qiong? Although it's not impossible... Today the envoy is a cheat code for Qiong, tomorrow the star god will be a accessory for Qiong.
Qiong: Thank you for your blessings.
March 7th: ...What kind of blessing is this?!
Paimon: Based on March's prophetic abilities... I'm starting to get scared.
Traveler: I'm starting to get scared too…
Admin Q: ...Fear +1.
Aglaia: It's actually quite good news that most people in Tree Garden are safe and sound these days.
Kaze Sumire: Fortunately, we have wise people to lead us...
Kavi: By the way, could we trade with the Order of the Church? Just three or four, that's fine. →_→
Kaze Sumire: ...Your Order Academy...let's just forget about it.
Al-Hysen: Not surprising. Most people couldn't stand Hazard and his crew's actions.
Na Ke Xia: Haha, if he were in the Tree Pavilion, he'd probably be dead in some experiment by now. He's no good at politics, no good at research, and no good at debate.
Are you sure it wasn't someone who was 'killed' in an experiment?
I think another key point is that the scholars at Shenwu Tree Garden are more human than many research fanatics →_→
All I know is that Aglaia got a remote slap in the face... She had previously said that everyone except the scholar who brought the news was probably in trouble, and then Xia even seemed to know her thoughts, saying, 'She mistakenly thought the scholars had all been wiped out.'
Aglaia: No doubt about it, he's definitely targeting me.
Na Ke Xia: You're overthinking it. Who cares about you?
Aglaia: ^_^
Wan Di: Such a heavy killing intent…
Ceryldra: ...This version of the Golden-Wearing Duke is more pleasing to the eye than his previous 'calm' demeanor. This kid is extraordinary.
Hazel: Indeed~
Saifeier: Pfft~
Kaze Sumire: But it sounds like all the other sages have left... Professor Natsumi, you wouldn't have volunteered to stay and lead the remaining scholars in order to take the opportunity to study the fire source, would you...?
That Moment Summer: ……→_→
Bai E: That's exactly what Teacher Xia would have done at that moment...
Xia Die: Teacher... I hope you can take good care of yourself.
That summer: Anyway, a wise person will definitely stay behind. If it's not me, it will be someone else. I might as well take this opportunity to study the fire.
Aglaia: Sigh…
To be honest, Xia's words at that moment contained a lot of information.
But what exactly happened...?
March 7th: He had even prepared information for what would happen if something went wrong…
Doctor Truth: Reading… So he stores a large amount of information in this soul, selectively 'playing' the recorded content based on the actual situation and the person he is facing.
Black Tower: But the existence of the Nameless Guest and Mimi is indeed special to Onpharos. It's interesting that they even have plans to deal with these.
Bai E: Could it be that Teacher Xia could actually understand what Mimi was saying at that moment?
That moment Xia: Hmm... to be honest, I feel like this part was meant for Xi Lian. Her speaking habits seem to match, and she also has the ability to 'remember'.
Xi Lian: Hmm~ So, could it be that this cute pink girl is someone else in disguise?
Bai'er: Uh…that…is that unlikely?
Xi Lian: What if? ~Isn't this a rather unpredictable turn of events?
Since arriving in Onphalus, I've lost count of how many times I've said the phrase "unless something unexpected happens."
This doesn't count, because it was within Xia's expectations at that moment →_→
Feng Jin: I can't even imagine what Xia Die's feelings will be after the Pioneers relayed that the teacher asked her to go to the Throne of Enlightenment to retrieve the spark and everyone's remains...
Yadie:......QWQ
Bai'er: ...Feng Jin and I are still in Ohmma and know nothing...
Feng Jin: Alas!
Qiong: This isn't right. It's not like this in the game. Shouldn't it be that I arrive in time to save the damsel in distress, and then we develop a revolutionary friendship with the Golden Blood? At that moment, Xia finally becomes a rational demigod, and together we take down the mastermind, resulting in a happy ending?! Why are you telling me right away that you're here to collect the remains?
That Summer: What kind of hero saves the beauty?
Qiong: Sorry, it was a hero saving the external brain...
March 7th: An external brain, is that even possible...?
Danheng: Not surprising... that's his style.
Admin Q: Do you know the value of that summer's gold medal that was cooled down before it even entered the pool?
Qiong:?
Traveler:?
Fujimaru Ritsuka:?
Silver Wolf: What game is this? I'm avoiding it.
Qiong: I know this one, it's 'Honkai Star Railway'!
Aha: Aha remains silent, only @Cripper
After saying that, the figure disappeared in front of Mimi and Qiong, while Xia Die, who could not see anything, asked them if they had found valuable memories.
Qiong shared the information he had seen with Xia Die. Having received such a large amount of information, Xia Die chose to digest it first and then explained what "intelligent species" were, following Qiong's words. However, this theory was very complicated, and if she was interested, she could ask him to explain it to her personally—provided that he was still alive.
The news that the rest of the Tree Court had evacuated was the only good news they had received so far. Now that things had come to this, all they needed to do was focus on recovering the embers.
Xia Die didn't want to imagine the worst-case scenario, hoping that Xia and the others simply couldn't move the fire, but managed to escape...
However, since Nashika said the spark is on the Throne of Enlightenment, let's head there, although getting there won't be as easy as Nashika made it sound.
On the bright side, Mimi thought it sounded like a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so everyone would definitely be fine.
After being comforted by Mimi, Xia Die felt much more relaxed, only hoping to find similar directions left by Teacher Xia along the way.
Na Ke Xia: Wait, what do you mean by "don't take it too seriously"? Is my full name really that hard to remember?
Xia Die: (＊／w＼＊) Sorry, Teacher Xia at that moment…
That summer: Go back and copy 'Anaxagoras' a hundred times.
Doctor of Truth: Soul...Intelligence...
Academic discussions are for you to explore behind the scenes; the comments section is really incomprehensible to most people, thank you.
Na Kexia: You can watch more. Even if you can't learn it, it's good to be exposed to academic knowledge.
No need, thank you. (wiping sweat, after all, I recognize each of these characters individually, but when put together, they seem to recognize me, but I don't recognize them!)
Soul, core... Hmm... But you said there was no soul, so why does Onpharos have one? Could Onpharos really be haunted?
Stop talking, or we'll start debating whether a spiritual or energy body counts as a soul...
Come to think of it, it seems Xia Die deliberately avoided delving into the fact that Xia died at that moment…
Qiong: We're already here, it can't be that we're really beyond saving, right? This doesn't make sense. We were supposed to go into the pool, right? Are we really going to have to freeze completely before we go in?
The Throne of Enlightenment is quite interesting. It's about enlightenment, but later it borrows the throne... and suddenly becomes domineering.
Domineering knowledge falls in love with me
That's very domineering.
I can accept knowledge's forced love for me! Come on, let it automatically enter my brain.
Watch out, there's a bubble on the other side!
That's better.
How did you become a coward so quickly?
Because I'm not stupid, and I don't want to become stupid or crazy.
Paimon: You guys are saying weird things again.
Speaking of which, the Throne of Enlightenment… easy to defend and hard to attack, sounds really good, provided that the scholars actually occupy it… and not that you few are going to have to attack it next.
Qiong: Why are we attacking the Throne of Enlightenment if we have nothing better to do?
It can't be that Mimi is planting flags again... Haha, impossible!
The group continued forward, and vaguely heard someone singing. They became alert, but the library was too large to pinpoint the exact source of the singing.
After observing for a while, Xia Die and her companions arrived in front of a statue, full of doubt. At this moment, someone, seeing their curious study of the statue, reminded them, "Ah... even so, the stubborn rock can't speak."
Everyone was startled, and when they turned around, they found a long-haired woman with tree branches on her head and a transparent lower body floating behind them. They found it quite amusing to see Mimi scream in fright.
Xia Die looked at her warily, demanding that she keep her distance, but the other party immediately recognized the aura of Cenatos on her and identified Xia Die's identity, finding her fierce and aggressive demeanor quite cute.
The woman introduced herself as Calypso and greeted them on behalf of the Seven Sages and the 'Lotus Food School'.
Xia Die warned Qiong to be careful, stating that although the owner of the Lotus Food School had never shown her true face, she could not be easily trusted, and that she was not a ghost or anything like that.
March 7th: That sound, is it the Titans' activity?! Could it be the Titan of Reason?
Uh… but they don’t seem to realize that what they’re actually hearing is different from what we’re hearing?
Could it be that Xia Die and Mi Mi can understand Titan's words and automatically translate them in their minds, thus failing to notice the problem?
Xiadie: ...
Qiong: Scratching head, anyway, I don't know anything.
