Chapter 533: Confused Memory

The manuscript is not an ancient magic or a lost treasure, but rather a rough and highly compressed journal that Vivien has been recording intermittently from millennia years ago, and the main content is her every slumber and awakening, as well as some impressive observations during her activities in the world. Since the manuscript begins with some of the memories, it can actually be traced back to more than 10,000 years agoβ€”or even more, because at the beginning of the manuscript there was a scene of the end of the Quaternary glaciation, which is only a conservative estimate of 10,000 years ago.

But Vivien herself had completely forgotten about it, and if she wasn't lucky enough to reunite with Paul, I'm afraid that these precious materials that could not be copied would be lost forever. Thinking of this, even Hao Ren pinched a cold sweat for her: this girl's memory is really unsettling.

Sleeping again and again, resurrecting again and again, using these key events as nodes, the manuscript records the experiences and experiences of an eternal over the past 10,000 years along a vague timeline. The style of the primitive flood period of the earth can be seen from those ancient words, and those ancient gods and demons that have been wiped out with the end of the mythological era also frequently appear between the lines.

Hao Ren's thoughts seemed to drift back to the age of human ignorance with Vivien's voiceβ€”something that had only happened a short time ago to Earth, but it was already an ancient that could not be verified for humans. At that time, human beings were still barbaric creatures who carved holes, the land was ruled by ancient beasts and powerful nature, and ancient aliens with god-like power ruled the whole world, and most of them had not even thought of establishing divine power in human society - but their activities had deeply affected the primitive people at that time, so that human beings at that time had the most simple and ignorant primitive god beliefs. They confuse all kinds of natural phenomena with those who can call the wind and rain. Listed as a primordial deity. At that time, Vivien walked aimlessly in the world, on specific occasions and at certain times. She's even one of those primordial gods.

It's just that she doesn't walk in the world for too long every time: inexplicable sleepiness always haunts her.

The records on the manuscript continue, and now there is the germ of human civilization. For Vivien at the time, this was an interesting phenomenon:

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Awakened in a crack in the ground, the stone chamber in which it was sleeping was intact, but it has sunk into the depths of the ground in its entirety, and it seems that it suffered an earthquake while sleeping, but fortunately did not fall into the underground magma. It's spring on the surface, and it's strange again. What was supposed to be a large lake has now become a grassland, and the soil nearby is fertile. Humans were found grazing, and they no longer wore animal skins. And their village has changed a lot - some of the houses, built of stone and wood, they seem to be growing very fast. The clothes on my body are already very shabby, and it seems more and more unnecessary to use magic to maintain them, maybe I can get something from humans......

"In addition, I found a lithograph near the place of slumber that I left before I fell asleep, and it still records the bad feelings before I last slept, which is so strange that I have no impression of it. But I decided to transcribe these notes as I had done before. It may be useful in the future.

"Along a river, more fertile lands and larger human settlements were discovered, and it was astonishing how they could multiply on such a large scale in the wilderness. Something must have helped them fend off the threats around them. Humans can deal with beasts in packs, but they can't deal with my kind...... Tracing the river and finding the human refuge. It's old friends, Amon and Osiris them. They are protecting a human kingdom. It's strange, but it's also very gratifying. They have a better attitude towards humans than the rest of my kind...... I remembered Zeus and ...... I had met back then. Well, it should be Hela? Or Hera. The couple seemed to have similar thoughts, but didn't know where they lived now, maybe they should go to them, and it was a good time to embark on a journey.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Failed to find the Zeus couple because they got lost in a strange place illuminated by the red moonlight. I'm in an irritable mood, and this place is full of villains who are hostile to me, and no matter how many I kill, it will only make my anger grow...... Maybe there is some kind of illusion here, and anyway, sleepiness hits, and I have to continue to sleep. ”

Hao Ren frowned, as if he had found something suspicious between the lines, and Vivien just continued to translate:

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Wake up in the water, probably after a long time of soaking. It seems that something has changed in the slumber, and an underground river has poured in. The world is always changing, no matter where you sleep, it's not 100% safe, even if you bury yourself in the ground to avoid harassment from people and animals, but after all, it is difficult to deal with geological changes. I found the notes I had left before I fell asleep last time, and they were written about fighting with people and being impatient, but as always, I had no memory of the strange feelings of that time, and could only temporarily believe that they really happened. I now have a new way of taking notes, and I can copy everything from the slate and rags to the soft veil that Horus gave me.

"Remembering my previous plan, I set out to find Zeus and Hera, I remembered that they had settled on a high mountain, and they should still be found according to the position of the stars. Let's hope the stars don't change too much.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Found the Zeus couple and I were very happy with them. The humans they sheltered were also prosperous, and those humans even built huge cities and wonders of stone, and those buildings, although not magical, were almost as large as temples...... It seems that Poseidon is a little unhappy with this, and he does not like to see that humans are capable of building spectacles like gods.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sorting through some of my previous records at my leisure, I was confused by my own slumber and awakening, and no one else, including the werewolves and undead, had slept as many times as I did. I've found some patterns......"

"Some patterns...... "Vivien put the manuscript down for the time being, her face slightly unsightly, "Landlord, how do I feel weird." ”

Hao Ren had long felt that this manuscript was strange between the lines, but those things were vague and difficult to grasp. He rubbed his chin and looked at Vivien, "You can't remember anything about this manuscript?" ”

"Not at all," Vivien frowned, "but according to the sporadic revelations of the manuscript, although I would have forgotten some of the things recorded on it during my previous sleeps, I would always have a few fragmented memories left, so I was able to supplement this manuscript later based on those fragmented memories." But in the last slumber...... I simply forgot about it, even the manuscript itself. ”

"Last time I was asleep...... It was after the battle with the Wraiths three hundred years ago," Hao Ren looked at Vivien, "It was the most 'strict' time, and your missing memory happened to be the most important part: you forgot this 'diary' that you had kept continuously for 10,000 years. ”

Vivien looked at the manuscript, which contained rudimentary drawings of what she had seen and heard on Earth at certain times, but more of a total of strange monster-like "creatures". Vivien goes through a great battle every time she falls asleep, she destroys those monsters in her irritability and anger, and then falls into a deep sleep due to the "sleepiness strikes", and before that, she will draw the image of her enemies, as if to wake up and identify them, and be the first to be vigilant the next time she encounters them.

Looking at those strange paintings, Vivien thought and whispered: "According to my summary, there are two kinds of sleep: one is when there is nothing to do - or when I am poor and about to starve to death, I actively choose to go into a deep sleep to get through the hard life, this kind of dormancy is controllable, and there seems to be no sequelae, after waking up, only a small part of the memory will be lost, or no memory will be lost at all, and there is no significant weakening of the body. And what is recorded in the manuscript is the second situation entirely: drowsiness hits and I have to sleep. ”

Hao Ren looked into Vivian's eyes: "After this uncontrollable drowsiness hits, you will lose a lot of memories, and your body will be extremely weak when you wake up?" ”

"I'm not sure to be honest," Vivien waved her hand with a smile, "the hardest thing for an amnesia is to confirm what he's forgotten. But I really can't remember many of the details mentioned in this manuscript, and I did feel unusually weak after waking up from a slumber on a few occasions......"

"Including this time," Hao Ren tapped lightly on the table with his knuckles, "Your last slumber was after the elimination of the Fury, and that was also the uncontrollable dormancy of the sleepiness that hit the guide, so you are in a weak state now?" ”

Vivien looked at her, "But I feel like I'm in good spirits." ”

"Don't make a fuss, people feel like they have a great advantage before sudden death."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Landlord, you really can't speak. ”

Hao Ren coughed dryly: "Ahem, that's pretty much what it means anyway." Anyway, I don't know if you have noticed one detail: in the record of this manuscript, you will experience the same thing every time before 'sleepiness'! ”

Vivien's eyes froze: "I've noticed, manic, angry, inexplicably arguing with people, and...... I don't know who to fight against. I had never seen the enemies mentioned above, and the paintings seemed unfamiliar. ”

"But you did write the manuscript," Hao Ren stared into Vivien's eyes, "Are you sure you can't remember this part?" Even the last time you slept was three hundred years ago, don't you remember if there was such a phenomenon at that time? (To be continued......)
