Winter in the North.

Lin Ran embraced the silver bell and walked through the blue barrier of the domain. The snowflakes fell profusely into his eyes, and the green world in his eyes was instantly covered with snow white.

Looking down at the beautiful woman with closed eyes in her arms, Lin Ran's eyes showed an uncontrollable sadness.

He still couldn't say that word in the end.

The mission was over, but he found himself missing something very important.

I felt my heart throbbing, and even felt a little out of breath.

Holding the silver bell in his arms, Lin Ran stepped forward on the snow, and countless scenes of getting along flashed in his mind.

Behind the "vegetable dog" are Yinling's expressions in different emotions.

The more he recalled, the more heartbroken he felt.

Memories are like a road with no return, knowing that nothing can be copied, but the more you get stuck in it.

At this time, a figure appeared in front of Lin Ran, blocking his way.

Lin Ran raised his head slowly, and when he saw the appearance of the visitor, he couldn't help sobbing:

"Chess...brother..."

Feng Qi reached out and pressed Lin Ran's shoulder, without saying a word.

He could understand Lin Ran's mood at this time.

He used to get close to the Mist Lord in order to achieve his goal.

But during contact, he found that the Lord of Mist had already regarded him as a relative and brother, and was more willing to give up everything he had longed for, even his own life, for him.

So he can understand Lin Ran's mood at this time, because what Lin Ran lost was a feeling worth cherishing.

"Let's go home." Feng Qi said softly.

Lin Ran didn't answer, but nodded silently.

In the heavy snowfall, Lin Ran hugged the silver bell and followed the way Fengqi came and went.

After walking for a while, Lin Ran suddenly looked up at Feng Qi:

"Brother Qi, Yinling has given me all the information, including how to get in touch with the Yinyue clan in the domain world."

Turning to look at Lin Ran, Feng Qi nodded, then turned his gaze to the silver bell in her arms, and suddenly asked:

"Aran, when you were with her, did you ever think about pulling her into our human camp?"

Facing the question, Lin Ran had a look of sadness in his eyes, then shook his head and said:

"You don't need to ask, I know what the answer is. She is the same as me, and she is doomed to put righteousness in her heart before feelings...Thinking in another way, if I were Yinling, I would suppress my feelings and continue to stand on the side of my tribe. "

Feng Qi guessed Lin Ran's answer.

He clearly remembered the previous timeline, the scene where Lin Ran drank the amnestic potion and chose to die for righteousness.

Lin Ran has always been a trustworthy companion by his side.

Maybe the mission will choose him to be the one who carries the burden. Besides the firm belief in his heart, there are also Lin Ran, Mu Qing, Lu Yue, Wei Wei, and other fellow travelers who are destined to meet...

"Brother Chess, why do you say that races must face each other?"

Lin Ran's question interrupted Feng Qi's thoughts.

For this question, Fengqi already has the answer in his heart after exploring multiple timelines:

"The general situation is falling on the top of the head, lingering like maggots on the tarsus bones. If all ethnic groups want to continue the fire of life, they can only grow desperately. With limited resources, plundering has undoubtedly become the most direct and effective way of growth."

"Can't all ethnic groups unite to deal with the general situation?" Lin Ran continued to ask.

"The unequal strength is doomed that even if the various ethnic groups choose to unite, the ending will gradually develop in the direction of one side being strong and the other being weak, and eventually it will evolve into disguised plunder and oppression. True unity will only be established on the basis of completely equal strength. Under the premise."

"It's like us human beings, it is impossible to share resources with livestock... To truly unite all races under the imbalance of power, unless there is an order organization that is stronger than all races to maintain, and this organization cannot have With a little bit of selfishness, everything operates with the idea of ​​order, otherwise unity is doomed to degenerate into unequal oppression."

Hearing these words, Lin Ran was silent.

He felt the heaviness behind these words, the ideal world was like the stars in the sky, seemingly beautiful but ultimately out of reach.

Seeing Lin Ran's dim eyes, Feng Qi solemnly patted him on the shoulder:

"It didn't exist in the past, but it doesn't mean there won't be in the future. All ideals start with dreams, and the beginning of dreams is always illusory. As long as there is a goal, it means that the dream has already set sail. Maybe one day the dream will become a reality."

"Dreams come true..."

While murmuring, Lin Ran raised his head and looked up at the night sky. At this time, the sky was full of stars, like the eternal lights of thousands of families in the ideal world.

"Brother Chess, I have found a new target." Lin Ran nodded vigorously at this moment, then looked at Feng Qi with a serious expression and said:

"Brother Qi, I want to keep the memory of Yinling, can you help me?"

Hearing these words, Feng Qi couldn't help being taken aback.

He didn't expect Lin Ran to make such a request.

Although this memory is worth cherishing for Lin Ran, it is destined to only bring pain and an endless future.

But he also understands that this memory is very precious to Lin Ran.

"Maybe the other me won't have any intersection with Yinling again, but the memory of this acquaintance is worth cherishing, and I want to keep it."

Hearing these words, Feng Qi fell into silence.

The main reason why his memories of each sacrifice line can be preserved is because of his special ability "Nightmare".

This ability can help him read the memory of his near death.

The main function of the container and active medicine developed by the Scarlet Research Institute is to preserve his brain, not to directly preserve his memory.

Wanting to help Lin Ran retain his memory, the Scarlet Research Institute has no...

Just when Feng Qi was about to open his mouth with regret, a flash of light suddenly appeared in his mind, and he remembered something.

Among the materials he brought out from the Science and Technology Research Institute in the previous Future Line, there is a technical project about "memory extraction", and this technology has been mastered by Scarlet Research Institute after 1500 years of perfection.

What is lacking is the further research and development of supporting instruments.

If the technology works, Lin Ran's memory could be preserved.

(PS: Related technical content chapters: Chapter 348, paragraph 59 of Wei Wei's message.)

At that time, Weiwei explained in a message that the memory extracted by this technology is like a movie film, and one can randomly select a section of it for editing and extraction to make a new film.

Others can also view the relevant memories of the extracted person through this extracted memory film.

At that time, the Scarlet Research Institute focused on this technology to assist him in reading the memory of the sacrifice line.

Since the memory is viewed from the perspective of viewing, the sense of substitution when browsing and extracting memories will not be as immersive as that of the brain in a vat, and there will be no trouble caused by the superposition of strong negative emotions.

Lin Ran wants to preserve the memory of when he was with Yinling, which is essentially completely achievable.

As for the problem of the sense of substitution, you can consult Wei Wei at that time to see if it can be improved to solve it.

After pondering for a while, he looked at Lin Ran and asked solemnly:

"Are you sure you want to keep this memory? This is undoubtedly a kind of pain for the other you, and there may be no ending."

"I understand that liking may not be appropriate. I just hope to keep this memory and wait for a suitable opportunity to give it to another me. This memory gives me a new vision for moving forward."

Looking at the firmness in Lin Ran's eyes, Feng Qi nodded at this moment:

"Okay, I'll help you."

"Brother Chess, thank you."

"Thank you." Feng Qi nodded solemnly and patted Lin Ran's shoulder.

After continuing for a certain distance, the roar of the engine came from the front.

A snowmobile team broke through the wind and snow curtain and appeared in their sight. It was the logistics team that came to meet them.

Grain

After getting into the car, they drove towards Winter City.

…

Three days later.

Feng Qi and Lin Ran returned to Hu Soul Research Institute.

Yinling's body was cremated after returning to Hupo Research Institute, and finally stored in an urn and taken away by Lin Ran.

It can be seen that Lin Ran has changed dramatically.

This kind of change Fengqi has also happened before.

When he was studying, his views on domain creatures were very simple.

Evil, cruel, filthy, bloodthirsty, twisted...all negative comments can be applied to these invading creatures.

But after personal contact, he discovered that there are also lofty qualities in the creatures in the domain. They have ideals and dreams in their hearts.

Sometimes seemingly cruel decisions, viewed from another angle, are responsible for the future of the entire ethnic group.

After this experience, he obviously felt that Lin Ran had matured a lot.

It's just that this kind of maturity is catalyzed by sadness.

People always mature in a way they don't like.

Lin Ran, who used to have a hippie smile, is gone, but now he has a brand new goal and ideal.

He wants to build the human race into a guardian of order, and he will work hard for this seemingly impossible and distant dream.

The ultimate goal of this dream is to create an orderly growth path beyond brutal competition for all ethnic groups.

Feng Qi didn't comment too much on Lin Ran's idea.

But he knew that after Lin Ran made a decision, he would definitely move in this direction.

…

As soon as he woke up this morning, Feng Qi received a call from Wei Wei.

At this stage, the Scarlet Research Institute has already hid underground in advance. If you want to get in touch, you need to apply to Gu Ke in advance, and then Gu Ke will go to the Scarlet Secret Base to get in touch with Wei Wei.

After all, the scarlet secret base has completely cut off the network and communication links with the outside world.

This is also done for safety reasons.

After answering the phone, Wei Wei's voice came:

"I heard from Xiaogu that the task is completed?"

"Well, the space coordinates and contact methods of the Yinyue Clan have been obtained. After Lin Ran records them, I will ask Uncle Gu to send them to you."

"How is Lin Ran doing now?"

"It's a bit deep, but it's been relieved, it's okay, don't worry."

"Tsk tsk, he is a young boy after all, so it is understandable for him to fall into such a beautiful woman as Yin Ling. Please enlighten him more these days."

"He has been enlightened, and now he has a new dream, hoping to establish a world of order."

Hearing Feng Qi's answer, the voice on the other end of the phone seemed a little surprised:

"I have to say that this idea seems a little naive."

"It's okay, it's good for him to have a dream, I don't want him to spend his life in depression."

"That's true... By the way, you contacted me just to say this?"

"No, there is one thing that needs your help, sister Wei."

"for example?"

"I want to help Lin Ran keep his memory with Yinling, is it difficult?"

Wei Wei on the other end of the phone was silent for a while and then said:

"Retaining memories is not difficult. The memory extraction technology brought back from the previous timeline can do it, and the supporting facilities are already being built. The problem is that the memories extracted by this technology will not have an immersive sense of substitution. , you will clearly find that you are just a bystander."

"Giving this memory to Lin Ran is like watching a movie, which is completely different from what you felt when you went through the sacrifice line."

After hearing Wei Wei's answer, Feng Qi frowned slightly.

But he had already guessed this result in advance.

"Can this technology be improved?"

"Well...it's not difficult. This technology is very expandable. It is essentially extracting the memory after editing. Maybe I can insert it into Lin Ran's memory in the form of edited memory, so that the viewing angle can be changed. into perspective."

"In short, this memory can be preserved. The first one is to watch a movie, and the second is to edit it into the memory and become part of the memory. The only difference is in which perspective it is preserved. .”

"As for whether the second solution is feasible, I will have to give a clear answer after subsequent experimental tests."

"Miss Wei, you have worked hard."

"It's okay, serving Ah Qi, it's not hard, I just eat nutrition cream every day for hundreds of years." Wei Wei said teasingly.

Hearing these words, Feng Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes:

"Okay, get busy, let Gu Ke bring you the crayfish back when you have time."

"Remember the spicy taste."

…

After hanging up the phone, Feng Qi got up and began to wash.

After going out to eat breakfast at the Tiger Soul Research Institute, he came to his exclusive top-floor training room.

When he came to sit by the window, he opened the field science books on the desk and took out a bookmark from it.

Time flies by in learning.

After a long time, Feng Qi raised his head and looked out the window.

It is located on the top floor, where you can see the scenery of Star City, which is helpful for physical and mental conditioning.

The top-floor training room he was in was not as large as the exclusive training room of the Scarlet Research Institute, nor was it used for training in combat skills, innate ability tests, and other aspects.

This place is more like a study room, with several bookcases of field studies books for him to read.

However, this is only a small part of domain knowledge.

The content of early domain studies can be summarized by the content of a book, but with the in-depth understanding of domain biology, relevant knowledge has gradually increased.

Today, 500 years later, there is so much relevant knowledge that normal people cannot learn it all in their lifetime.

Because of this, field credits are awarded to many classified subjects.

Among them are: field philology, spiritual science, ethnology, and so on.

Field Science includes everything related to the field ~lightnovelpub.net~ and new content will be added every year.

This discipline is like an encyclopedia related to the field, and its earliest origins can be traced back to the early days of Cataclysm when humans developed rune spar warriors.

The growth of human cultivation studies, field studies have played a role in fueling the flames.

Because the initial stage of human cultivation is to imitate those domain creatures that can absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and want to obtain powerful power that can rival the domain creatures.

Fengqi doesn't find the process of learning domain science boring.

The continuous accumulation of knowledge always brings him satisfaction.

He never said that learning makes me happy.

Next, go to the old school, and the relevant knowledge of field studies will also pave the way for him.

(Continue to code words, there is still one chapter, but it is estimated that it will be finished after 12 o'clock, everyone go to bed early.)
