Chapter 052: The Forsaken

The screen dims, the lights come on, a feast ends, and the audience leaves the stage for a long time.

When they were almost gone, Arthur woke up Luden.

Ludon looked a little tired, and didn't say much on the way back.

Back at his home, Ludon washed up and fell asleep in bed.

I don't know how long it took, but when he opened his eyes, his eyes were still confused and puzzled.

He unlocked a memory that he was digging a pit as if he was going to bury something.

This memory has no beginning or end, and it is confusing.

After the dream ended, Ludon couldn't sleep again for a short time, so he had to find something to do.

Pouring himself a mojito, Ludon sat down at his computer desk as the screen lit up automatically.

He doesn't watch much of the news and doesn't pay enough attention to facts.

Cause? Quite simply, his memory is so bad.

The so-called news, the new word in front, highlights a timeliness, but for Luden, a lot of things will be forgotten after reading the front foot, and reading it is equal to watching in vain.

In other words, anything that is likely to be news to Luden.

Even so, Ludon took the time to glance at the battle report and the battle line.

The rebels have already begun to counterattack the headquarters of Paradise Lost, and Paradise Lost even has a large number of Ludon killed in battle!

The pace of progress is too fast, making this war seem a bit child's play, what went wrong?

Ludon deliberately glanced at the time, his pupils shrank, he has been back to Brave New World for six years?!

The last time I was awake, Ludon and Arthur went to a movie, and if the time on screen was right, it would have been five years ago!

Slept on your own for five years?

Or do you forget all the memories of the past five years?

Looking at the time, Ludon fell into deep thought.

It all happened so suddenly that it caught people off guard.

He did have the experience of forgetting memories for a few days, and he was used to this kind of life, and he didn't feel that there was anything about it.

But skipping five years in one go?

It's like pressing the accelerator button for life, one second is still leisurely watching a movie, and the next second it's already a life-and-death moment to fight the final boss.

Moreover, everything that happened to Ludon has too many doubts!

According to past experience, the memories unlocked in the dream world will not disappear, could it be that he has not dreamed in the past five years?

Moreover, after Ludon woke up, he would check the time as soon as possible, although he was forgetful, but this habit would not be forgotten, why didn't he check the time this time?

"What have I done in the past five years, why the memories of dreams have been forgotten, the balance between Paradise Lost and the Resistance has been broken, and I must complete my mission as soon as possible"

Luton had an ominous premonition.

The rebels have entered the headquarters of Paradise Lost, and the war has entered its most tragic phase - street fighting.

In the face of life and death, even Lu Deng was tempered by the war into the most heroic warrior.

They weave through the streets, fighting back with a variety of weapons, giving the rebels a head-on blow, making every step of the way difficult.

The fiercest resistance was a video store.

According to the war report, Paradise Lost seems to have made the video store its headquarters, and most of Lutdon's memories are preserved here.

The rebels organized hundreds of attacks, but failed to take the video shop.

The battle is urgent, and Ludon must recall everything as soon as possible.

He searched around his house and was surprised to find that most of the furnishings were no different from those they had been five years earlier.

That's why, when he woke up, he didn't notice anything unusual.

It seems that Ludon has been living the same life for the past five years.

In the bedroom, Ludon found the clue.

I don't know when, there is an extra dark passage in the bedroom, and the dark passage leads to the underground!

Without hesitation or preparation, Ludon went straight down the dark passage and into the basement.

In the basement, Lutdon meets an unexpected guest, Arthur.

Arthur was hung in shackles, with signs of torture on his body, and bloody torture instruments on the table.

It all seems to be easy to explain.

Seeing a dazed Ludon walk in, Arthur smiled disdainfully, "You forgot again, did you?" ”

"Forgetting is my way of survival."

Lutdon is not apologetic, it is obvious that Arthur has fallen into this fate and has an inseparable relationship with himself, even so, Luton is still not apologetic.

He forgot what he had done, how could he apologize?

Ludon looked at Arthur for a few seconds, didn't ask a question, didn't make any extra movements, but turned away directly.

Arthur shouted behind him,

"Aren't you going to ask me something?"

"No, I'm not going to do that."

As he went upstairs, Ludon explained,

"If there is something important, I will not forget."

The deeper reason was what Arthur had come out of his mouth, and Lutdon couldn't believe it.

In that case, it's better not to ask.

After returning to his bedroom, Ludon began to think about a new question: why today?

Obviously, before today, he had done something, as evidenced by Arthur's locking up in the basement.

But why is it that today, Lutdon has forgotten everything that has happened in the past five years?

Why wake up today?

Is today a special day?

Just as Luton pondered the question, the doorbell rang.

There are guests coming.

A smile appeared on Luden's face.

Being good at forgetting is sometimes a good thing.

This means that when he has a memory, he plans everything for himself in advance and makes a plan that he can't go wrong.

Even if the implementer of the plan is a blank slate, the plan can still be implemented.

Just like what is happening right now.

Ludon doesn't know anything, clues and truths are automatically sent to the door.

It's part of the plan.

Ludon got up to open the door, and unsurprisingly, there was a familiar guest standing outside the door—an angel.

"We meet again."

The angel also smiled, and walked into Luden's house, obviously not for the first time,

"It's time for a decisive battle, and no matter how many memories you have now, I need you to do something."

Ludon closed the door, nodded and said,

"Okay."

He didn't ask what it was, and just agreed.

My past self guessed the angel's visit, and all I needed to do was cooperate.

With everything that is about to happen, victory will naturally come to hand.

Ludon enjoys this feeling a little, as if everything is being manipulated, fate becomes a toy under his silk line, even if he forgets everything, he is also the manipulator of fate, the strong man standing on the shore.

The angel took out a CD and instead of handing it to Luden, he played it.

The contents of the disc are simple, a Ludon is sitting on a couch watching TV, and the content of the TV is not revealed in the slightest.

Matryoshka belongs to yes.

In other words, the CD-ROM has no value to other people, and they don't have access to any useful information.

But for Ludon, it's different.

Looking at what was on the screen, he fell asleep and entered the world of the film.

After entering the world of the film, Luton opened his eyes and found that Luton was still watching TV on the TV screen.

"Infinite nesting dolls?"

Ludon didn't hesitate and tried to fall asleep again.

Like Inception, he needs to enter layer by layer.

The person who made the disc was careful not to hide the content directly in the first layer of the film world, and Ludon needed to go deeper to get to the truth.

Of course, Ludon is not worried about getting lost in the world of the film.

He had already guessed that the disc was mostly made by himself and was part of the plan.

In this case, I will definitely consider the risk of getting lost and formulate relevant plans to avoid risks.

If there is anyone in the world who can make Lutdon trust 100% of it, it must be himself.

Second floor. 3rd floor. Fourth floor.

After entering the seven-story film world one after another, Ludon received the message he left for himself.

In this moment, he understood everything.

When he finished receiving the message, a sharp knife pierced him in the chest, killing him without mercy.

Luden's chest was dyed red, but the corners of his mouth were smiling triumphantly.

He retreated to the previous film world and was killed by the plot again!

The process of returning is like sitting in a teapot and playing with a big pendulum clock, the world is spinning, and countless feelings of weightlessness come to you.

Finally, a basin of cold water was poured over his head, and Ludon on the couch woke up violently!

The angel with the basin looked at Ludon and asked,

"Do you remember?"

Drops of water kept dripping down his cheeks, and Ludon nodded,

"I remember."

With the help of the angels, the last piece of memory is obtained, the truth spreads out in front of him, and Ludon finally remembers everything.

The angel smiled triumphantly, but before he could celebrate, the smile quickly froze.

A burst of electricity struck her, and in the convulsions, the angel fell backwards, his eyes full of questions.

Luton found an electric baton out of nowhere and brought down the angel.

Why would the other person attack himself, who is also from Paradise Lost?

Could it be that he betrayed Paradise Lost, betrayed the Master?

If this is a betrayal, then when did the betrayal begin?

From the moment he entered Paradise Lost?

Too many questions clogged in the angel's chest.

Ludon, who suddenly attacked, did not have any explanation, but took out the rope and skillfully tied up the angel.

After getting rid of the angel, Ludon went to take another shower and changed into a tuxedo for the upcoming stage.

With all this done, Luton returned to the basement and came to Arthur once more.

Only this time he didn't come with any doubts, but came to visit an old friend, and he even leisurely brought a cup of black tea.

Elegant, timeless.

Seeing Luden's demeanor, Arthur showed a bleak smile,

"Looks like you've got your memories back?"

"That's right."

Ludon nodded,

"I remember who I am."

He sat opposite Arthur, crossed Erlang's legs, put his right hand on his left hand, and said leisurely,

"I have forgotten the memories of these five years because everything that happened in these five years is no longer important.

I forgot the content of the task because it was completed and had no memory value, so it was forgotten.

Although I forgot, the mission is not difficult to guess, combined with the information at hand, if I guess correctly, you are the key person in maintaining Paradise Lost and Brave New World, my mission is to find you, cut off this connection, and thus help the rebels gain an advantage, progress as planned, you are trapped by me, even Brave New World can't save you out, because your situation is in line with the script you set for yourself, if you rescue you, it will go against the script and the operation manual."

Listening to these words, Arthur tugged at the corners of his mouth, he didn't expect that this guy with a bad memory knew far more things than he imagined.

Sure enough, not to underestimate any of Luden.

Arthur asked again,

"I heard you all have code names, can you tell me yours?"

This was his last question, and the one he was most curious about.

"Yes."

Lu Deng picked up the black tea on the table, took a sip, and said elegantly,

"I'm from the Resistance, codename - the Forsaken."
