Chapter 261 Reversal
When carving the words, Jiang Xingni did consider carving them on clothes or something similar.
But at the same time, she thought of another possibility—if she wrote the words on her clothes, she would only realize what she was supposed to do when she lifted her clothes.
Or perhaps it was written on each other's faces—this idea had barely surfaced when Tang Xiaoxing rejected it with an expression of utter horror.
"No, I still need to meet people in the future." Tang Xiaoxing firmly rejected Jiang Xingni's suggestion at the time.
Jiang Xingni felt like something was off, but when she looked at Tang Xiaoxing, she couldn't figure out where this feeling of "something was wrong" came from.
Finally, they reached an agreement to have the words engraved on their wrists at the closest possible distance to their line of sight.
The clothes might be affected; I forgot to check.
Even their faces can be separated.
But when they raise their hands, when they swing their knives, when they want to attack, they always realize that they should move forward, that they should not be misled by the false memories in their minds.
The past self clearly knew far more than the present self.
Since that's the case, then listen to your past arrangements and trust yourself.
With that thought in mind, Jiang Xingni walked to the front without hesitation.
Tang Xiaoxing didn't know when she had separated from Jiang Xingni.
She saw a snake at the deepest part of the crater.
—So small, so ordinary.
This was Jiang Xingni's first thought upon seeing the snake.
It wasn't some giant serpent, like the one in Norse mythology that caused the end of the world, nor was it like the giant serpent in the stories Jiang Xingni had heard in his youth, the one that, after a long period of time, could transform from a snake into a dragon and finally into a serpent.
The strange creature in front of them was just a small snake, less than half a meter long, with nothing special about it and a grayish body.
"..." Although underestimating one's opponent is not a good habit, Jiang Xingni couldn't help but ask softly, looking at the snake, "Is that all?"
*
That's really all.
Shu Yangqiu, who has challenged this dungeon countless times, is the most qualified to say this.
All the threats that disappeared came from the concept of "antime" that it carried.
Therefore, everything about it will be hidden, which in turn leads to the disappearance of its original form.
"She will make the same choice," Shu Yangqiu said softly, lowering her eyes.
"Actually, I've wanted to know this for a long time: why did disappearing without a trace eventually lead to the disappearance of the entire city, with millions of people vanishing together?" Lin Hongguang asked.
Shu Yangqiu smiled.
That's the strange thing about disappearing without a trace.
Few other monsters, when about to be killed, will self-destruct like this one, taking millions of people down with them.
Even after so many years, no one has found any trace of those people, and no one knows whether they are dead or alive, let alone what went wrong that led to the deaths of so many people.
Jiang Xingnian gripped the utility knife in his hand and quietly approached the small snake in front of him.
Strike the snake at its vital spot.
Jiang Xingni had been taught this phrase since she was a child. However, back then, "seven inches" was just a metaphor, but now, she really had to go and strike this "seven-inch" snake.
Jiang Xingni, hidden in the darkness, gestured to indicate the size of seven inches.
Then--
Her speed was so fast that Shu Yangqiu and Lin Hongguang, who were watching from outside the projection, didn't react in time. They could only see a black and white afterimage on the screen rushing straight towards the snake.
too fast.
Shu Yangqiu gave his old colleague a deep look.
"I think she doesn't need any further instruction from you in physical skills."
Lin Hongguang touched his nose somewhat awkwardly.
Although I hate to admit it, what Shu Yangqiu said is indeed true.
They might be able to teach Jiang Xingni how to identify the style of the opponent's martial arts, but they wouldn't be of much help in helping Jiang Xingni improve his own martial arts skills.
"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, she grew up in that kind of environment, and her parents are incredibly talented people. It's not surprising that Jiang Xingni learns things very quickly," Lin Hongguang explained to Jiang Xingni in a familiar tone.
As the snake lay dying, it suddenly saw the light reflected from Jiang Xingni's dagger.
It quickly shook its head, biting the blade of Jiang Xingni's utility knife with its teeth, and then, in an extremely human-like manner, flicked its tail.
It seems to be gloating—I've seen through your tricks, what else do you want to do?
Jiang Xingni sneered, and taking advantage of the fact that the art knife had already restrained the opponent's teeth, Jiang Xingni grabbed its tail.
Without hesitation, he picked it up, swung it a few times in mid-air, and slammed it to the ground by its tail!
snake:……?
Before the snake could even struggle, its head slammed into the floor. The hard rock collided with its skull, and it felt its head buzzing. It felt as if its great-grandmother was coming to take it home.
When Jiang Xingni picked up his utility knife, while the animal was still dazed and had little attack power, he stabbed it in its vital spot.
In an instant, all the concepts about this matter in Jiang Xingni's mind began to become clear.
Why they can't remember, why they came to the meteorite crater, why she felt she should kill the snake, why she was constantly blocked on the way here, why she is now separated from Tang Xiaoxing—all these questions can be answered through animemetics.
But now, this effect has suddenly been reversed.
Jiang Xingni took a deep breath, a sense of foreboding creeping over him.
The blade sliced through the snake's scales as easily as cutting through tofu, and then Jiang Xingni suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.
She felt like she was disappearing.
—It's not just because the dungeon was solved and the monster was killed that the entire exam automatically ended.
Rather, it was the kind of abnormal effect that slowly affected her personally.
Everyone who knew anything about it—even if they had only heard a few rumors on the street—was forced to have their impressions reinforced by the anomalous ability at this moment, to the point that they could be influenced by the anisomeme.
The concept of anisomemes has a real impact.
It's not just about forgetting.
It's not just that no one remembers it.
Rather, in a true sense, even the traces of its existence have been completely erased.
In the end, no one in the world will remember any of this.
—Just like those millions of people.
It turned out to be the case.
Jiang Xingni suddenly realized.
Then she felt another pulling force coming from her body, pulling her out of the anomaly in the instance and back into reality.
With his feet firmly on the ground, Jiang Xing finally stood on the ground again, staring thoughtfully at the door.
She suddenly thought of a possibility—if the snake could reverse the effect of anisophora and strengthen other people's impressions, then what about them?
