Chapter 66: Weird

In Loki's optic nerve visualization, he uses his consciousness to search for subsequent speculations about collective amnesia.

Psychologists say that their thinking memory is implied by an unknown phenomenon, and the collective mind suggests that their memory of general information is complete, but some of the key memories are deliberately skipped and ignored by the suggestion.

There may even be a fence in that key memory.

Because people's memories exist by association, and the connection between the memories is cut off, then even if this memory exists, it is equivalent to disappearing.

As for what exactly did it do, to make every local resident disappear a memory, the psychologist is also very puzzled, he said that some psychologists may make people forget certain memories, through words, gestures or objects and other means of suggestive hypnosis, but let so many people forget a specific memory at the same time, or even make this memory disappear completely?

Psychologists speculate that this may be due to a natural phenomenon that cannot be explained by some science, or some strange magnetic field, or something to do with the gas produced by mineral extraction. It's always an unsolved mystery now.

Loki looked back again, but it was the show that invited some psychic and wizard-like liar experts to be alarmist about the incident, and it didn't have any reference value.

A kind of psychological suggestion, a large-scale psychological suggestion to the extent of 'collective amnesia'.

Loki excludes some unrealistic conjectures, which is a reasonable answer.

As for why Loki himself didn't have amnesia?

The reason he attributed to the quantum biological computer makes his memory thinking very different from that of ordinary humans, and his memory recall method is completely based on simple system extraction, rather than direct connection with imagination.

Silence wasn't as simple as it seemed, but the fact that it was collective amnesia wasn't enough to scare off the daring half-elf teenager.

'Bang, bang...... Bang'

At this time, Loki's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a series of knocks on the door, and his eyes suddenly became suspicious, experiencing a strange phenomenon of collective amnesia, and he had to raise his vigilance.

Quietly took out the crossbow and put it on the string, and then he quietly walked to the door with the short-armed crossbow.

Leaning low against the floor, Loki took a quick look through the gap under the wooden door.

There was no one, and the crack in the door was empty, and he immediately got up and quickly opened the door.

There was no one in the hallway, and it was strange that no one else was detected by the sound of the sonic hearing except for the knock on the door just now.

A string of small dirt footprints on the floor of the hallway, like the ones I saw last night, looked like they were left by a six or seven-year-old child.

The footprints had disappeared by the stairs, and even Loki, who had basic tracking skills, could not find any other clues.

Loki went to the owner of SAINT ANGELO again to inquire about it, and old Mandel said that it was just a naughty child's trick, and that some of the town's children liked to run to the hotel to hide and seek, and often made a mess of the place, which was not surprising.

The half-elf boy was not easy to be dismissed, and he pestered the old Mandel to chat, asking about some local things, and often asking about some details, and even the innkeeper's privacy had the meaning of breaking the casserole and asking the end.

Old Mandel SAINT ANGELO soon became impatient, had no good temper with his customers, and finally did not answer anything, and went downstairs and left with an angry face.

These questions are not difficult to answer, such as: What year is today, what are your parents' names, what do they do, how did the SAINT ANGELO Hotel be established, when did it open for business, and who drew the ugly sign?

Although these questions are relatively impolite, and while old Mandel is angry, he really has no relevant accurate memory, and he can't even say the names of the simplest parents, only remembering that they are also surnamed SAINT ANGELO.

Some are like Alzheimer's disease......

But Loki leans toward the innkeeper as a collective amnesia.

Because he later went to check with the tavernkeeper and some of the townspeople that everyone was in a similar situation, with memory deficits and no recollection at all.

Loki dismissed the idea of staying in Silent for a long time, and he planned to recuperate for a while before leaving this somewhat eerie place......

After returning to the hotel, the anger of the boss of SAINT ANGELO had not subsided, but for the sake of money, he still prepared a good meal for him.

Some of the friendly townspeople of the town during the day had been annoyed by this strange question from the outsider, and now no one gave him a good look.

Loki didn't care, and when he returned to his room after dinner, his vigilance rising little by little, as if he had returned to the dangerous Forest of Secret Words.

The crossbow string was attached to the bracket, and the crossbow arrows were also loaded, and the short-bladed weapons were within reach, and the dogleg knife was tucked under his pillow.

......

The night passed quietly, and the town was still so calm and peaceful, but it was calm and a little weird.

The beautiful weather woke him up in the morning, but Loki's mood was not so good, and the boss of SAINT ANGELO watched him go downstairs with a surprised expression.

Obviously, the innkeeper didn't remember him again, and Loki took another step to get the owner of SAINT ANGELO to happily prepare breakfast for him.

Sometimes, Loki really wants to knock this old fool on the head.

But with this kind of crude physical means, it must not be of much help to collective amnesia.

Loki plans to spend the morning looking for Barney Longbow, another famous outsider in Silent Town, not only because he wants to ask about learning some martial arts or skills, but also to find out if Barney Sr. also has collective amnesia.

Yesterday he had inquired at the tavern that Barney Sr. should be resting at home for a while, and Loki was going to pay a direct visit, and he couldn't wait.

A two-story wooden house on the south side of Silent Town, Loki inquired about it halfway through the way, and settled on the home of the Trainer, a former adventurer who was rumored to have no children and lived alone in this large house.

After knocking on the door, it was a strong and tall old man who frowned as he looked at the half-elf boy at the door.

"Son, you knocked on the door, I don't seem to know you. ”

Old Barney Longbow had a scar on his face, his gray hair was meticulously combed into a back, he didn't look like a former adventurer, but like a stereotypical old-fashioned aristocrat, and the tavern owner told him that Old Barney was a warm and stern man, and he was not very talkative, otherwise he wouldn't have charged him for an intermediary fee.

Loki nodded slightly, and said calmly, "Yes, Mr. Longbow, I'm here to find you." ”

"The barrel master once introduced you not only as a respected trainer, but also as a famous adventurer in the world, and he said that I could introduce you to you, but I thought it would be better to visit the door myself. ”

Barney Sr. was very impressed by these words, and the scars on his face were no longer so hideous.
