Before she could finish speaking, Elysia had already opened her arms and embraced Aponia warmly.

"Even Aponia has been resurrected?"

Eden, who had been watching Elysia with Gwen and was planning to wait until she finished her commotion before approaching Eden, looked at Gwen with surprise upon hearing this.

In Eden's mind, Aponia had already solidified itself with the Elysian Realm and become a part of it, so how could it now be able to leave freely?

"Well, after all, it was a tea party with the three of you back then. If one person is always missing, it's inevitable that it will bring back painful memories. So I naturally want to avoid that situation."

Meeting Eden's gaze, Gwen smiled and nodded.

"Um..."

Seeing Gwen's genuine smile, Eden didn't say much, but simply nodded, his gaze towards Gwen carrying a different meaning.

"It's been a long time, Dr. Mobius..."

Seeing Mobius walking towards him, Eden smiled and stood up to greet him.

"Yes, it's been a long time, Eden."

Mobius, left in the Elysian Realm, did not have the same sense of identity as his other self watching Eden sing in the wasteland and calmly face death with civilization. However, 50,000 years of living together allowed Mobius to communicate with Eden without any sense of difference.

After shaking hands, Mobius looked at Eden and asked curiously—

"Speaking of which, Eden, do you have these 50,000 years of Remembrance?"

Or is it that when the soul awakens, the Remembrance remains stuck at the moment of death?

Mobius was naturally very curious about the miracle of resurrection.

Although she hadn't even figured out her own resurrection situation, it didn't stop Mobius from being curious about Eden's situation, which was completely different from hers.

"Um...

When I first woke up, my consciousness was still a bit hazy, and my Remembrance were scattered and jumbled.

It took me a long time to recover on Gwen's body before my consciousness finally stabilized, and my fragmented Remembrance were barely pieced together.

In my current Remembrance, there is no history from those 50,000 years; it's as if I entered Gwen's body directly the moment after my death.

Eden, who could guess what the doctor wanted to do, directly gave his answer.

"Um...

Thanks."

"You want to study this?"

Gwen looked at Mobius, who was clearly deep in thought, and asked with a smile.

"Certainly."

Mobius nodded readily, making no attempt to conceal his interest in the realm of the soul—

"As things stand now, the soul is also a part of life, and its strength or weakness can affect the evolution of life."

"Then I can tell you directly—"

I can gather and revive souls that have long since vanished because my body has some special rules...

To put it simply, I possess a unique formula that allows me to seize a specific opportunity to reunite my soul, which had seemingly vanished completely.

To prevent Mobius from wasting his time, Gwen provided the answer directly.

"As for whether there are any other ways in the world to achieve a similar effect..."

Perhaps we should wait until our technology has advanced further and our basic science has laid a solid foundation before considering this issue.

In Gwen's memory, the only person in this world who seemed to have achieved this through human effort was Ruan Mei, who was said to have been able to resurrect deceased relatives but ultimately chose to give up.

It wasn't that Gwen underestimated Mobius; it was simply that the level of knowledge they had access to was vastly different, and aiming too high was not advisable.

"Oh..."

Mobius stared at Gwen for a moment with his vertical pupils before letting out a soft chuckle and gracefully sitting down on the other side of Eden.

"Okay, I won't be overly ambitious and think about those unrealistic things..."

"So, let's have a banquet!"

Elysia, who had brought Aponia along, immediately chimed in—

"Today Aponia and Mobius are resurrected, both of which are great events to celebrate!"

"That's really a boring thing that suits your personality."

Mobius glanced at Elysia, who was sitting on the other side of Gwen, and said without any politeness.

"A banquet is a chance for everyone to get to know each other better, so how can you say it's boring?"

As Elysia spoke, she took Gwen's other hand—

"Besides, Mobius, aren't you interested in the realm of the soul?"

I was planning to go to this banquet with Little Griseo!"

"Griseo?"

Upon hearing this name, the sharp words that Mobius was about to utter vanished instantly, and he looked at Gwen for confirmation.

Chapter 538 Dyeing Griseo

"Yes, now I can use some means to bring people with me to Griseo's place."

Gwen nodded in agreement with Elysia's suggestion, noticing the urgency in Mobius's eyes, and continued to explain—

"The energy crystal research we've invited Dr. Mobius to participate in is also closely related to the operation to rescue Griseo— "

The people who kidnapped Griseo were survivors from what we call Venus, the second planet in our Solar System.

If we can decipher the secrets of the energy crystals, even if our technology cannot perfectly replicate them, but only analyze some of their principles, enough to revive Venus, then we will have the confidence to bring them to our side.

"Bring them to the same side?"

Mobius raised an eyebrow; while in the Elysian Realm, she was often behind on many of Gwen's intelligence.

"Yes, beyond the Solar System, in the dazzling Milky Way, there are countless glorious and splendid civilizations, as well as countless disasters that are like Honkai, or even more terrifying than Honkai."

Once I resolve the Cocoon of the End and its blockade of the Solar System weakens, it will be inevitable that Earth's civilization will come into contact with those forces.

Although the existence of one more or one less civilization is basically meaningless if that force really wants to harm us, the power and size of that Venus survivor, Suo, still have some value.

Based on current intelligence, the opponent's power comes from deeply exploring the power of the Sea of Quantum, and they are attempting to evolve their own world to support the civilization they wish to protect.

It holds significant importance both externally and for our own development.

"So, Griseo will have to remain a hostage for some time?"

Mobius frowned.

She did not deny the truth in Gwen's words, but she objected to continuing to put Griseo in that dangerous situation.

"You can rest assured about that; I have already taken sufficient precautions to protect Griseo."

With the power of Sa, it's impossible for her to be harmed.

Moreover, Griseo's current state is quite special; waking her up directly wouldn't be good. She needs to awaken herself.

Gwen shook his head and then described Griseo's current condition.

Having confirmed that Gwen did not intend to put Griseo in danger to carry out his plan, Mobius did not press the matter further.

Soon, following Elysia's instructions, the group, carrying the banquet supplies, were Gwen to the past, a place belonging to Griseo's Remembrance, thousands of years ago.

Although the appearance of Mobius... Grandma, Aunt Eden, and Mother Aponia was quite unusual, Little Griseo was like a blank sheet of paper, didn't have many doubts and quickly accepted it.

And it seems that Kevin, Su, Hua, and even Danzhu Cang Xuan in that Remembrance did not notice anything unusual.

Soon, a party that Griseo had attended with her parents was about to begin.

"Does it feel like your little Princess, whom you were protecting, has been taken away by a group of bad guys?"

At the edge of the banquet, Gwen leaned against the "Mr. Knight," who was like a decoration at the banquet, and asked with a smile.

"No, Griseo is happy now, and that's enough."

Listening to Gwen's teasing, the Mr. Knight's voice remained as gentle and polite as ever, as if he were truly just a knight protecting Little Griseo.

"Hmm... As expected of you..."

Having been here many times and quite familiar with the Mr. Knight, Gwen smiled and nodded, then suddenly had a whim and presented the wine glass to the Mr. Knight—

"Speaking of which, since it's a banquet, would you like a drink?"

"Forehead..."

The Mr. Knight had clearly never considered this question, stared at the swirling liquid in the glass in front of him, momentarily stunned.

Want to give it a try?

After all, this is a completely new experience for you, right?

Gwen asked with a smile.

When they went to the Elysian Realm before, Gwen was able to actively control his power and soul fluctuations, so he did not Little Griseo in the Elysian Realm with his own color.

At that moment, Gwen suddenly decided to give it a try.

"This..."

Looking at the swaying liquid, the Mr. Knight had initially wanted to refuse, inexplicably felt an impulse and nodded slightly—

"Perhaps I can give it a try..."

With that, the Mr. Knight carefully took the wine glass from Gwen's hand and put the wine in it into his mouth.

"How?"

Gwen asked with a smile, confirming that the Mr. Knight was not an empty shell of armor and that there would be no leaks at the bottom.

"A very strange feeling..."

After a moment of silence, the Mr. Knight finally spoke and gave his answer—

But there's also a strange sense of familiarity...

It's as if I've drunk it more than once before.

"It seems that you might be able to explore some new things."

"Perhaps in the near future you can provide Griseo with even more new colors?"

Gwen said with a smile.

In his heart, Gwen was pondering the source of the familiarity the Mr. Knight had mentioned—

The Mr. Knight, as far as Gwen knows, is a protective shell created by Griseo using the color of her father's mark.

Perhaps, in Griseo's limited memories of her father, there were also images of him drowning his sorrows in alcohol?

The banquet ended smoothly, Little Griseo continued her daily cycle, only this time, Griseo's experiences were much richer than before when the cycle was constantly shortening.

However, compared to the past when she would repeat those things single-mindedly time and time again, Little Griseo now had a hint of contemplation and doubt in her eyes...

On Earth, Gwen's life returned to normalcy.

However, Gwen's peaceful life was soon disrupted by a piece of news—

"Roa!"

"Get out here!"

"Don't hide, I know you're here!"

"..."

Looking at the message from the new Netizen who had sent one message and then remained silent, Gwen wanted to ask a question mark—

Dude, I've already made myself perfectly clear, haven't I?

However, looking at the name mentioned in those words, Gwen felt a faint sense of familiarity—

"Roa..."

Roa...

"The hiding Roa..."
