Lost Memories
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan withdrew his gaze and looked at the crowd.
At this moment, everyone was completely bewildered. Hundreds of meters away, Brunkel was still standing in the same spot, his eyes unfocused, the Blue Knight on his back still seriously injured and unconscious.
Frey, on Lu Yuan's back, was also in a daze, lying quietly on Lu Yuan back without saying a word. Clearly, they had lost all their memories of coming to the Land of the Dead Silence.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan felt relieved. This saved him the trouble of explaining what was going on with the sea.
The only thing that worried Lu Yuan was the Blue Knight, specifically the small stream of colored text that had originally flowed towards him.
It barely sustained her precarious body; her injuries showed no significant improvement. The Sea of Knowledge itself had no healing effect, or rather, Lu Yuan was not yet capable of using the Sea of Knowledge to heal others.
He recalled Brunkel's behavior; this woman only followed imperial laws, and once she woke up and discovered something was wrong with the Blue Knight, Lu Yuan hardly needed to guess what she would do.
So Lu Yuan swayed and landed in front of Brunkel.
Brunkel looked up, somewhat bewildered, at the young man carrying the girl on his back. His eyes were completely unmoved, as if he were looking at a stranger.
Lu Yuan didn't care. Looking at Brunkel, he said, word by word, "Send the Blue Knight back to the Knight Academy as soon as possible, regardless of whether she has been Contamination or not."
As soon as he finished speaking, several strands of colorful characters swam out from Lu Yuan's body and disappeared into Brunkel's brow.
Using the words of the Sea of Knowledge, Lu Yuan forcibly anchored this sentence into Brunkel's memory. Even if she forgets everything that happened here after she leaves, this sentence will remain firmly in Brunkel's mind, preventing her from forgetting the matter completely as soon as she leaves.
Brunkel's body trembled slightly, a faint light flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to a state of confusion.
Lu Yuan raised his hand, and the Authority deep within his left eye trembled slightly. A stream of seawater fell vertically from the sky, enveloping Brunkel and the Blue Knight on her back. Their figures gradually faded in the colorful light until they disappeared completely.
Lu Yuan saw Brunkel and the Blue Knight off as they left this world first.
As for the Seventh Seat, Lu Yuan glanced back at him.
The Seventh Seat is an existence in this world. Lu Yuan had no intention of doing anything to him, and even if he wanted to, he couldn't. Deprivation requires a name, and he didn't even know what the Seventh Seat was called. Otherwise, he could consider eating him too. Throwing such a Fifth Order skeleton into the Sea of Knowledge might yield some benefits.
However, Lu Yuan was only thinking about it. As his ally, he wouldn't touch him for the time being, at least not before showing any hostility.
Meanwhile, the Seventh Seat was also watching Lu Yuan.
Although he saw what Lu Yuan did to Frey, the air was filled with an aura of Taboo and Sea of Knowledge, so dense it was almost impenetrable. He couldn't tell whether the Seed was still intact or had been removed. But he knew one thing: Frey was leaving.
In short, Frey's departure from this world is a devastating blow to the Heretic, and the task entrusted to him by the Third Seat can be considered complete here.
The Seventh Seat didn't speak; he simply raised a withered brown finger and pointed to the Gray Mist in the distance, indicating that he was leaving.
Lu Yuan nodded to him. "Thank you, senior."
The Seventh Seat nodded, turned and left. The light on the light blue patterns on the skeleton gradually receded and sank into the depths of the bones. The huge skeleton slowly floated up and headed towards the Gray Mist in the distance, quickly merging into the mist and disappearing.
At that moment, Oden also came over.
He slung the Azure and Gold-Wrapped Scepter over his shoulder, circled Lu Yuan halfway around, and looked at the young man who had just peeled off Frey with great interest, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.
Lu Yuan felt a chill run down his spine under Oden's gaze. "What are you doing?"
Oden didn't answer immediately. Instead, he flipped his blue hair in a cool manner and raised an eyebrow at Lu Yuan: "Am I handsome?"
Lu Yuan was completely taken aback by the question and stood there stunned for a moment.
He had expected Oden to ask him why he held Authority over the Sea of Knowledge, or how much control he actually had over Sea of Knowledge. He had even mentally rehearsed how to answer, but Oden didn't ask a single question.
Looking at Oden's young face, Lu Yuan suddenly understood that this guy had no intention of asking at all.
Lu Yuan then pursed his lips and said, "Handsome, very handsome."
Oden burst into laughter, his scepter on his shoulder trembling with each laugh, "Alright, so how do we get back now?"
As he spoke, he lowered his head, clenched his fist, touched his face, and couldn't help but sigh, "To actually have a body in this godforsaken place... I haven't felt this way in a very, very long time."
Lu Yuan glanced at Oden: "Wait a moment, we're leaving now."
As the two spoke, the seawater in the sky began to recede little by little, and the colorful Milky Way hanging down slowly closed. The colorful light receded inch by inch from the Wasteland. The Authority deep in Lu Yuan's left eye trembled slightly. The seawater enveloped him, Frey on his back, and Oden beside him. The three figures quickly disappeared into the colorful light.
The moment he was pulled out of this world, Oden's tall figure began to compress little by little, first his hands and feet, then his body, and finally even his handsome face was rubbed into it, turning into a small ball of light that wobbled back onto Lu Yuan's body and merged with Lu Yuan's consciousness.
Oden felt his current predicament. He had finally regained his hands and feet, and now, after so long, he had turned back into a Consciousness Entity of nothingness. Life was hopeless, and he was so sad.
Lu Yuan sensed Oden's emotions and quickly disappeared from this world with Frey.
Above the Land of the Dead Silence land, the vibrant colors did not completely dissipate. They slowly receded, growing smaller and smaller until finally leaving a faint colorful imprint beneath the gray sky. In this world, which resembled a dusty twilight, the sky now had a colorful patch hidden beneath the Gray Mist —a remnant of the Sea of Knowledge.
