Lin Shuang: Where the Heck Am I? Is This Still Penacony? / A Memorial to the Nameless.

Chapter 294 Lin Shuang: Where did this come from? Is this still Penacony?
The moment the Monster appeared.
Even Topaz suddenly widened his eyes.
"Watch out! Lin Shuang-- "
Puff--
Because there was absolutely no warning of danger, and the Monster acted as if it were on its own turf.
Their movements were as swift as lightning.
When Lin Shuang turned around and realized what it was,
The Monster's blade was now at an unavoidable point.
The sharp blade pierced through his chest.
"Lin Shuang! What happened?!"
In Topaz's view, the communication screen suddenly became distorted.
In that blurry image, something seemed to appear behind Lin Shuang.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Shuang turned around abruptly.
Then came the scene of Lin Shuang being pierced through.
Snap--
The phone fell to the ground.
Lin Shuang stared wide-eyed and turned her head to look. The figure of Topaz beside her was no longer as calm and composed as before.
Thud--
Lin Shuang's figure transformed into a pool of viscous liquid that scattered on the ground.
The cell phone also vanished.
Communication was then interrupted.
Topaz, who had nervously stood up from his chair, was now pressing his earpiece, his eyes sharp, and a smile playing on his lips.
"... Penacony, looks like you have a lot of secrets. I hope you survive."
The deal was only halfway through, barely a step in the right direction, but the person they were trying to sell to seemed completely hopeless.
"Diamond will definitely be interested in this call log, huh~"
After saving the call log, Topaz sat back down in his chair and then dialed his colleague's number.
"That's strange, calling me at this time. Weren't you supposed to be dealing with two bad debts? Did you run into some trouble, Little Elena?"
"Ms. Jade, are you free now?"
"Of course I'm free. Also, since we're on the phone, and we're all from the same Ten Stonehearts, how about we relax a bit? For example, we can use less formal terms like 'Madam' or 'you'."
"Ah, um... I'm sorry, it's rare for me to contact you directly like this. Actually, it's about Penacony. Here's the call log... take a look."
Topaz held a certain amount of respect for the seniors who had mentored him, even though they were now direct subordinates of Diamond.
However, it's still somewhat difficult to treat them as equals.
However, one thing at a time, Topaz still sent his call log with Lin Shuang to Jade first.
The company naturally received the invitations extended by Penacony.
Diamond is considering who to send as its representative to Penacony.
The company's goal, of course, is to reclaim this planet that has been occupied by the Family for so long.
Topaz wasn't particularly interested in the business trip to Penacony, but since he had unexpectedly obtained a clue, he would definitely discuss it with his senior colleague first.
On the other side.
Lin Shuang noticed something was wrong when she saw the Memory Zone Meme.
It wasn't that Lin Shuang was boasting, but she was quite confident in her perception abilities.
They can always sense a crisis in advance, especially one that is hostile or hostile towards them.
Also a Memory Zone Meme, during the adventure with the Black Swan in that strange Dreamscape.
Lin Shuang could clearly sense the chaos and hostility of those Memory Zone Meme towards her.
But not this time.
This Memory Zone Meme, which only appeared in the main storyline and had a ferocious and menacing appearance, even as it raised its sharp blade...
They even aimed at Lin Shuang's chest.
Lin Shuang didn't even sense that sense of crisis.
It's like...
Getting stabbed by this thing is really just a joke.
As the sharp blade approached.
Lin Shuang thought of the scene in the story where Firefly was also stabbed.
Is there something wrong with this Memory Zone Meme itself?
So, after being killed by it, you don't actually die in your dream?
Taking all this into account, Lin Shuang did not choose to resist the attack of this Memory Zone Meme.
Instead, it seemed as if they hadn't reacted at all.
He let those sharp claws pierce through his chest.
Topaz's voice still lingered in my ears.
But Lin Shuang's vision had turned into darkness, and her consciousness seemed to sink into the deep sea, drifting with the current.
A force was pulling Lin Shuang toward some unknown direction.
Unlike the Nihility that corrupts the Acheron, the ocean of Memoria is turbulent and far from calm.
Lin Shuang silently endured the oppression from the Memoria; this was the result of her being completely immersed in it without any protection.
I have no idea where we'll end up.
Lin Shuang resisted the immense pressure, her mind preoccupied with Topaz's matter.
This was truly an unexpected event today.
The company obtained information about Penacony in advance.
This time, there might even be call records as evidence.
It's unclear how things will unfold for Penacony in the Aventurine.
It's even uncertain whether it will become Topaz- Penacony.
After all, the evidence this time should have been submitted to Diamond by Topaz.
I wonder what will happen to Penacony...
Lin Shuang thought to herself.
Suddenly--
"Puha--"
It felt like bursting out of the water, accompanied by a dizzying sensation.
Lin Shuang, panting, staggered to the ground.
I rubbed my head, which was feeling a little dizzy.
Lin Shuang opened her eyes and looked around at her surroundings.
Upon seeing this, Lin Shuang was stunned.
"... Where did this come from again? Is this still Penacony?"
Lin Shuang gazed at the end of the desolate alley.
The architectural style here undoubtedly has Penacony feel to it.
But such a desolate and dilapidated place certainly doesn't belong to Penacony's Twelve Hours of Dreamscape.
Speaking of which...
"How come the Memory Zone Meme even has a transfer function...?"
Lin Shuang was prepared to struggle and survive alone in the ocean of Memoria, but she never expected to find such a place to stay.
This was quite unexpected.
Could it be that I've been led to the lair of that Memory Zone Meme?
Red flames appeared out of thin air. Lin Shuang changed into the Valkyrie Armor, remained vigilant, and walked forward along the only passage.
As you move forward, you can see that there are branch paths on both sides of the passage, but without exception, they are all piled up with debris and garbage.
Collapsed or fallen neon lights, signs, and other debris blocked the passageway.
Lin Shuang continued forward and came across people staggering about.
However, when you approach them to talk to them, you find that most of them are not very clear-headed and are in low spirits.
I asked several people in succession but couldn't get any useful information.
Most of them are immersed in their negative emotions and unable to extricate themselves.
What puzzled Lin Shuang was that these people rarely exhibited extreme negative emotions such as fear or dread.
"Strange, if it's a dangerous place, shouldn't the emotions be fear and worry? But if it's not dangerous, what's the deal with that Memory Zone Meme?"
Lin Shuang stopped trying to get information from the passersby and continued walking along the path ahead.
This straight main road looks like it was deliberately cleared out.
Otherwise, this wouldn't be the only road that remains clean.

Chapter 295 The Monument of the Nameless.
The alley isn't exactly narrow; it can easily accommodate several people walking side by side.
It's just that the tall buildings in the background almost completely obscure the view of the sky.
When you're actually there, the road seems rather narrow.
However, Lin Shuang squinted and observed the narrow patch of sky for a while.
The reflection of the city's neon lights seemed faintly visible.
"... Could that be the Twelve Moments Dreamscape in the sky?"
Lin Shuang was somewhat shocked by the sight of the city hanging upside down in the sky.
But when she looked up at the Twelve Moments, she couldn't see this place.
I watched for a while.
Lin Shuang withdrew her gaze and quickly walked to the camera on the road, after going around the wall.
To her surprise, a very old-fashioned-looking elevator opened its doors as she approached.
It appears to be still operational.
And behind the elevator.
