Collapse: Nano Brigade Captain's Journey Across the Galaxy

Continued from the previous chapter (Chapter 247)…

In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Chen Ye spoke first to Gallagher, "Stop, Gallagher, I can probably guess what you want to say to me, but... unfortunately, I may have stayed in Pinocchio for a while before, but... now I have no memory of that time at all."

Hearing this, the excitement in [Gallah]'s eyes gradually faded, and then his tone gradually returned to normal: "Oh~ So..." The disappointment in his tone was difficult to conceal, but Chen Ye's next sentence made him excited again, but he didn't express it in words -

"But... I know myself very well. If I had really come to [Pinoconi], or even stayed here for a period of time, I would definitely leave some words before I left. You can tell me, and I will try my best to complete it, but... it must be true. Don't try to tell lies to deceive me for help - [Fictional Historian]."

Hearing this, Gallagher just smiled faintly, and then said calmly: "Haha, of course not, I am an honest child..." As he said this, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. You know... his identity as a [fictional historian] is hidden very well.

No one except [Ragwork Shar Mikhail] can tell. Of course... this is also because those people are no longer here (referring to people from the same period as [Ragwork Shar Mikhail]), and Galaher does not think that his disguise can deceive those people.

The man in front of him… not only did he look and have the same name as that man, but even his eyes were just as vicious, which made Gallagher more and more certain that the man in front of him should be the man from that year, and… before that man left, he had said that he was not yet in his complete form…

But before he could finish, his body dissipated like powder, and he had no way of knowing what he said afterwards. Since then, Gallagher has been bothered by that sentence - what does it mean to be not a complete form? Perhaps... all this can be answered in front of the man in front of him.

In short, Gallagher didn't know why, but he told Chen Ye everything about that person, and told him what that person said at that time - [I'm not complete yet].

But Chen Ye was confused when he heard this. You know... he just asked Gallagher to tell him his last wish, but he didn't expect... Gallagher would directly tell him his entire life. Although he was a little confused, he still listened. And when Chen Ye heard that the man at that time said that he was not yet a complete form, his body dissipated like powder.

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his eyes! Then... he waved his hand and ordered them to leave: "Gallah, go discuss the case with Qiong and the others first. I need to think about these things carefully."

And Gallaher also heard the other meanings implied in Chen Ye's words, so he stopped making trouble and went aside to talk with Qiong and others. Finally... he prepared to mix a few glasses of wine to entertain Qiong and others, and then continue to discuss the case.

Chen Ye also began to search his own memories, but... not the usual ones, but a group of alternative memories... a group of [memories] whose existence had never been revealed to anyone before. After all... the nature of this group of [memories] was slightly different from other memories, which made him dare not touch this group of [memories] rashly.

He didn't even dare to tell anyone about the existence of this [memory]. After all... except for himself who had the real body of [Yu Duchen], he was able to completely defend against the detection of [memory]. But... other people who only possessed a part of [Yu Duchen]... could not completely resist the detection of [memory].

As for mechanical life forms like Balder and Jörmungandr... don't ask... the answer is that they seem mature, but that is only reflected in battle. Once they are out of battle, they are not much different from adolescent boys and girls. So... things like searching for unknown memories... instead of leaving it to them, it is better to do it alone.

But... because no one was there to pick him up, Chen Ye didn't dare to explore easily, even though this memory might not be dangerous at all, but... he was not the same person he used to be. The person he used to be... was ruthless and heartless. Not only did he have no close friends in these worlds, he didn't even know if he could go home, so he naturally dared to challenge everything.

But now... Chen Ye has thought of a way, but... this method is a little troublesome, but... it will allow Chen Ye to explore those dangerous memories alone in the future, even if he is alone.

Moreover... some details in what Galah just said made Chen Ye more certain that he must have been to [Pinoconi]. After all... his body turned into powder and dissipated. This situation was consistent with the body he had created using the technology he had used based on his personal understanding of the [powers] of some [Laws Keepers] and the power of the [Holy Ark].

Those bodies all have one thing in common - when they have enough energy, they can kill any god that stands in their way and torture any Buddha that stands in their way! The reason why I created this technology at that time was mainly to use it when I was performing [Consciousness Mapping].

After all... entering the [World Bubble] through [Consciousness Mapping] is a convenient method, but it has the potential to cause mental confusion and... the disadvantage of having a body that is too weak.

And after using this method to create a body, before entering the [consciousness mapping] state, he will just set a hint for himself - after entering the [world bubble], he will send the coordinates of the [world bubble] to the [Hyperion], and the people on the ship will drive the [Hyperion] to the vicinity of this [world bubble].

Then he would place his pre-made body into the [World Bubble], and his consciousness... would unconsciously enter the placed body while resting, and recover his own memories (although Chen Ye basically did not have any mental disorder problems, but... it would never be wrong to be cautious), and then...

...This body will transform into the image of Chen Ye in the [World Bubble]. In this way...Chen Ye in the [World Bubble] will no longer be unable to do anything. However...After using this method many times, Chen Ye also discovered the shortcomings of this method——

The body produced by this method is indeed very powerful when it has sufficient energy, but... once the energy is less than 10%, the combat capability of this body will drop significantly! When the energy is only about % left, this body will show a state similar to wind erosion.

When only 5% of the energy is left, the whole body will be like powder, floating in the wind. More importantly, the energy required for this body must be provided by the [Holy Ark]! So... when Galaher described how he saw that person's body floating in the wind like powder, Chen Ye guessed that he might have used this body at that time.

So... at that time I said that I was not a complete form, and... [Badel] had already searched through my normal memories, but did not find any memories about [Pinoconi], so... after thinking about it, everything was probably in this unknown memory in front of me.

Chen Ye took a deep breath, and then dived into this unknown memory group, and then... he was surprised to find that this memory group was unknown only on the surface, and everything inside was no different from his normal memory. It seemed... this was a little trick played by that guy [Fu Li] who took advantage of his current cautious character.

But I have to say... I was indeed scared, but unfortunately... the lie was exposed, and I found everything I wanted to know in this memory, and then... I handed this [memories] to [Bader] and others, and then... I regained consciousness.

After returning to the [Dream], he saw Gallagher asking a question to Qiong and the others - "So... I would like to ask you a further question. Have you ever thought about why the [Family] could tolerate the [Watchmaker] sending such a ridiculous message to the outside world..."

"...and let you come here upon your invitation and make such a mess here?"

The clever Ji Zi sister said it all in one sentence - "You want to use this opportunity to make the [Watchmaker] show his true colors, right?"

Although [Gallagher] did not give a direct answer, his words indirectly proved that Sister Jizi was right. "Now you can understand why the [Oak Family] authorized [Nameless Guest] to assist in the investigation, but also concealed things from you."

"Hehe... After all... The Watchmaker is not a legend in the Dreamland at all. He is the most shameful stain in the history of the Pinocchio family. He is the initiator of all the anomalies in the Dreamland!"

"Ah? But...what does this have to do with Mikhail?" Qiong asked in confusion. Before Galaher could speak, Chen Ye, who had already recovered the memory of Pinocchio, spoke first: "It's very simple, because - the so-called "Watchmaker", his real name is - Mikhail!"

Gallagher was a little excited when he heard this, but he still added: "Yes, Mikhail, the betrayer of the family is the famous watchmaker."

Hearing this, the three of them were all shocked. After all... this sentence was a bit subversive to them, but at least they were all [Nameless Guests] who had experienced many storms and waves, so they quickly adjusted themselves, and then... Qiong discovered a brilliant point -

"Brother Chen Ye? How do you know all this?"

"Yes! Why does Brother Chen Ye know all this?"

Chen Ye smiled slightly and said casually, "It's normal. Before I was frozen, I stayed here for a while. At that time... it happened to be when [Ragwok Shar Mikhail] was still here..."

Then, he turned to Gallagher and said, "Mr. Gallagher, I must make one thing clear to you!"

"please say."

"——Although I have recovered the memory of that period, that period of time is not long. At least, compared with my current memory, the memory of that period of time is too short. So, even if I recover that period of time, I am not the [Chen Ye] you know."

"Well, I understand. What is gone is gone. I won't force it if it can't be changed."

"Well, that's good. You have a very open-minded attitude, but... you don't have to be too pessimistic. I'm just saying that I'm not the "Chen Ye" you know."

"But I didn't say that the 'Chen Ye' you know will never come back."

"What do you mean?" After hearing Chen Ye's words, Galaher's pupils couldn't help but tremble. He even stepped forward and grabbed Chen Ye's hands tightly without caring about his image. Seeing this, Chen Ye was also a little helpless.

After all... to Gallaher, I should be the person closest to him. Of course... except for "Ragwork Shar Mikhail", he is definitely the most important to Gallaher, but I... can definitely be ranked second.

It was no wonder that Gallagher lost his composure, so… Chen Ye did not continue to tease Gallagher, but said bluntly: "The 'Chen Ye' you know is indeed not a complete body. At that time, the body I used could be regarded as 'technology and ruthlessness'. Therefore… the power I can use must be weakened."

"But that's not important. The one whose power is weakened by using it is the Dust Night you know. So - what does this have to do with me? Come, I'll let you see the power of the Herrscher and the Holy Ark!"

The next moment... there was purple mist in front of everyone, with colorful lights flashing in it, and Chen Ye pulled out a ball of light from his body and placed it into the purple mist.

And this process... Qiong and Sanyueqi are really familiar with it, and although Sister Jizi has not seen with her own eyes how Chen Ye created a human being,... [Joachim] did tell her in detail. So... Sister Jizi also knew that Chen Ye was creating a human being, but... seeing it with her own eyes, it still felt incredible.

And Gallaher was even more amazed. Not long after, the purple mist dissipated, and a figure that looked exactly like Chen Ye was lying on the ground. Just when Gallaher was about to step forward and touch him, Chen Ye suddenly spoke -
