Chapter 216 Materialistic Fire

What is that fire?

She had never seen flames like this.

The essence of [fire] is the expression of energy and electronic transitions.

The burning state of the flame in front of us is definitely not the energy change process of "jump" - the flame itself seems to exist in the material, and is inseparable from the material -

This flame is completely like another state of matter itself.

The flame transformed by the substance itself cannot be extinguished at all!

She looked at the inextinguishable flame, and her heart palpitations became more intense.

'I have never seen such a flame... Where did the firewood used by Chen Yan to light the flame come from?'

Where does the [material fire] that can burn the boundaries of the world's memory fragments come from? And why does it burn?

She was puzzled in every possible way.

She could only move forward in the direction of the spreading flames, running among the shattered fragments of world memory.

She watched the flames burn from "present" to "past".

In a sudden glance, she even saw the scene before all this started——

In the memory fragments of the world that existed at a certain point in time [in the past], Chen Yan was extremely immature, with pigtails tied on the back of his head, lying in the corner of the last row of a certain school, drooling, dozing, and feeling angry.

The teacher slapped him on the back of the head...

The next moment, colorless flames jumped out from the corner of the space, burning everything in the school before everyone in the school could feel the pain.

What frightened her even more was not the flames burning into the past.

She saw a small, colorless flame that was almost invisible to her, quietly bypassing the boundary of the "other side" of the world's memory fragments, and quietly slipped past in the direction of the "future".

She traveled through countless paper-like memory fragments of the world in a non-linear path, and appeared on the path of the flame first.

The flame was not something she could stop. She could only stretch out her claws and grab a fragment of the memory of the world that existed in the past to block it in front of the flame.

The flames rushed into the memory fragments of the world.

Immediately, the paper-like fragments of world memory began to burn in her hands.

She was at a loss in horror and threw the piece of paper into the sea of ​​​​fire not far away——

The entire [Memory Fragment of the Ferry World] has been burned into a sea of ​​colorless fire!

'The flames have begun to spread to [the future]...I must do something!'

'These flames cannot be extinguished. I can only isolate these flames from the [future] - I can only let these flames stay in the [past] forever!'

'So……'

She seemed to have made some important decision.

next moment.

The white cat's body was decomposed into several pieces of paper in the high altitude where the colorless flames could not reach.

Those papers are fragments of memories it has experienced in its short life. Most of the fragments are covered with Chen Yan's big nostrils and big face - when Chen Yan holds it in his arms, Chen Yan is the entire thing in its field of vision.

world.

A [consciousness] appears at the deconstructed position of the white cat's body.

'I don't have much time.'

The form of [consciousness] cannot be understood by anyone, nor can it be described by any knowledge known to mankind.

It can only be defined by [existence].

That [consciousness] exists in the sky, using its transcendent authority to formulate [rules] for the world formed by memory in front of it:

[When the flame burns to the border between [present] and [future], it will be blocked by the deep sea.]

When the voice fell, a few colorless flames sneaking towards the border between [present] and [future] plunged into the [Sea of ​​Fantasy] that 'appeared out of thin air'.

They evaporate seawater very quickly, but the seawater in the [Sea of ​​Fantasy] is also constantly being generated. Although they can evaporate seawater, they can no longer move forward.

With the emergence of [Sea of ​​Fantasy], [Consciousness] let out a humanized "hum" - [Consciousness] felt the "pain" unique to carbon-based organisms.

'Damn it...the carbon-based part of my soul cannot bear such a transcendent power...'

[Consciousness] was in agony due to the overload, but what made him even more anxious was that after the colorless flames burned through the memory fragments in front of him, they surged towards the [future].

Between [now] and [future] is the [Sea of ​​Fantasy] He just created.

If all these colorless flames enter the [Sea of ​​Fantasy] created by Him, the generation speed of sea water will not be able to keep up with the speed of evaporation of the flames - those flames will evaporate the sea water sooner or later!

He once again had to make a second rule for the world before him:

【The flame will burn in the direction of [past].】

When the rules were generated, the colorless flames rushing towards the [Sea of ​​Imagination] suddenly turned around in the void, rushing in the opposite direction like a tsunami.

[Consciousness] Watching those flames rushing towards the [past] direction, I don't feel any relief.

In fact, he was feeling terrible right now.

These two seemingly simple rules almost caused the carbon-based part of his soul to completely disintegrate.

Pain that went straight to his soul swept through his consciousness, a pain he had never experienced before.

But things didn't end there.

The colorless flames went towards the [past], and the [present] has been burned into "nothingness".

‘If a person does not have a [past] and the [present] is nothing, then he will naturally not have a [future]——

If the memory fragment of the world [Ferry] disappears completely, [Chen Yan’s future] will also cease to exist.’

He looked at the dilapidated [Ferry] in front of him and the memory fragments of the world.

'Fortunately...the memory fragments of this world have not been completely destroyed, and there is still a possibility of recovery.'

'Without any interference from outside forces, everything...will return to its original state.'

'Oh, this is my special skill...'

When the colorless flame completely left the memory fragments of this world and went to the [past], he began to [repair] the world in front of him——

Under His transcendent power, everything in the memory fragments of the [Ferry] world in front of him began to "regress".

The ocean burned dry by colorless flames reappeared, followed by the ferry hull burned by the flames, the people on the boat, then seagulls, the sky, clouds...

Everything is recovering in an orderly manner.

The whole process is both a "reconstruction" of the memory and a "rewinding" of the memory itself - it does not create anything new, it just makes everything go back along the timeline and returns the memory to a clear starting point.

.

After a while, it was quiet and peaceful on the ferry.

Tourists gathered in groups on the deck, sat under sun loungers, or walked between the banquet hall and the swimming pool...

They don't remember everything that happened next, because at this point in time, the terrifying future has not happened.

'Although it has been restored to its original appearance, some things have been lost forever.'

In the ferry, William Mast and the girl were no longer there.

He looked back along the timeline.
