Chapter 641 So now you are
"It's alright, as long as there's something there!" Upon seeing this, the person who went ashore immediately lit up. These were items from a special storyline, and their value couldn't be measured by ordinary standards.

As he spoke, his hands moved quickly, taking one item after another from Ryan's hands.

"How can you be so shameless?" Li Miao kicked him in annoyance, making it sound as if they had only come for a reward in the first place.

But thinking about it carefully... it seems that players really are like that, only acting when there's a profit to be made.

Fortunately, Ryan didn't care about this. On the contrary, he was happy that what he gave them satisfied them.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I want to give you."

Ryan took out some scale-like objects from his pouch again and handed them to the three of them one by one.

"This thing can't be used in battle; it's more of a souvenir."

"Use the power of the battle to infuse your eyes, then close them. After a while, you will see some wondrous sights."

"That must be my most beautiful memory."

Ryan sighed.

But he soon heard Chief Yasum's urging voice again.

"Alright, Ryan, it's time to go."

Chief Yasum seemed unwilling to let Ryan continue talking to the three of them.

After hearing this, Ryan said goodbye to the three of them.

"Alright, my friends, I should go now."

"I hope we'll have the chance to meet again someday."

After smiling at the three of them, Ryan's figure disappeared in the firelight.

Without Ryan's signal candle to sustain them, the three returned to Candlelight Island once more.

“I have a feeling something’s not right,” Li Miao said, frowning. His intuition told him that Chief Yasum didn’t seem to be the person he claimed to be.

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what exactly was wrong.

"They were manipulated and morally blackmailed." He shook his head. "To actually hand over control of his body to a wandering spirit like that, sigh..."

“No, that’s not right. That’s not what’s abnormal.” The storyteller shook his head, his brow furrowed. “…Before this, Ryan always seemed like a very obedient person, but this time he ignored our advice and readily believed this so-called Chieftain of the Asum, even going so far as to defend him in his words…”

"His personality has even changed a bit." Li Miao then voiced the feeling that something was amiss.

"It must be because he regained his memories from before he became a firewood gatherer," said Shang'an.

After all, the other party had told them quite a bit about this.

Upon hearing this, the two also felt that it was indeed not impossible.

"That would be for the best..." the storyteller sighed. "Ryan's special character is quite good, and hopefully he'll have a happy ending."

Upon hearing this, Shang An couldn't help but twitch his lips: "It was fine if you hadn't brought this up, but now that you have, I feel like he was setting a flag just now. That Chief Yasum is like a madman..."

Li Miao remained silent, lost in thought.

After thinking for a moment, he took out the souvenir that Ryan had just given them.

Ryan's Scales

[Type: Special Item/Souvenir]

[Effect: Activated by the flames of war, some of Ryan's memories can be seen.]

[Note: The ability to infuse memories into scales for later viewing is a chance-to-awaken ability of Azum when he possesses multiple souls.]

With a whoosh, flames erupted from Li Miao's hands, and then he closed his eyes.

After a moment, the darkness before his eyes began to be gradually replaced by fragments of memories.

These are mostly Ryan's memories of "the past," including fun times playing with his playmates and happy moments with his parents and relatives.

Finally, the image freezes on a dazzling and beautiful night sky, vast and tranquil.

Two of the stars were particularly bright.

"I must become an excellent soldier!"

Ryan's resolute words echoed at this moment.

There seems to be nothing wrong with them; they are indeed all wonderful memories.

Opening his eyes and exiting the memoryscape within the scales, Li Miao noticed that the storyteller was also examining the souvenir Ryan had given him. However, similarly, the storyteller didn't find anything amiss after exiting the memoryscape.

Ryan's memory seemed to be flawless, and there were no obvious loopholes in his words.

Perhaps... what Chief Yasum said was indeed true.

“No, something’s not right. I don’t think it’s that simple.” Although he hadn’t found any clues, the storyteller’s thoughts remained firm: “The Yasum chieftain’s reaction was strange… Ryan left in a hurry too. I need to go and check on the others.”

After saying this, the storyteller quickly left.

"Hey, I'm telling you, you guys are overthinking it. He's just an old fogey, there's nothing wrong with him..."

Upon hearing this, he muttered something to himself.

"I'm going to see Professor Burton and have him take a look at this spell. Do you want to come with me?"

He didn't think anything was wrong, and among the things Ryan gave him, he found a spell that looked pretty good.

"No, you go ahead." Li Miao shook her head.

Not long after, they went ashore and left.

Shortly after he left, Li Miao suddenly had a flash of inspiration and quickly went to a spirit candle, from which he took out [Carlos's Eye].

Its eyes, a blend of gold and black, clearly showed that it had been upgraded in quality at the end of the Radiant Earth event.

"I don't know if it will work..."

Holding the eyeball, Li Miao took a deep breath, then used Ryan's scales with one hand and activated Carlos's eye with the other.

This time, things have indeed changed.

The warm memories that Li Miao had been cherishing quickly shattered and collapsed, replaced by memories that were completely different from what she had seen before.

……

Ryan, who had been a slave in Yasum since childhood, had no idea what the concept of race was.

For him, ethnicity was almost synonymous with pain and hunger.

He never met his parents, but he had an older brother and a younger brother.

They are one with him, possessing multiple souls, which gives him a powerful talent that surpasses that of ordinary Azum.

But even though he didn't show any abnormalities, he was quickly discovered.

His powerful compatriots quickly launched a full-scale pursuit, wielding long forks.

Despite Ryan's best efforts, he could not escape being captured.

then.

In the dark cave, Ryan, covered in wounds and with heavy shackles and chains on his hands, was being escorted deeper into the cave by his comrades wielding long forks.

Ryan finally met the mastermind behind everything after arriving at a place filled with coffins.

“Ryan…don’t resist…you are a member of Yasum…”

"No! I am not a member of the Yasum! You have never considered us as Yasum!"

"So you are now..."

"No! What are you going to do?!"

"The souls of your loved ones will become the backbone of Yasum's glory, and you will become a footprint on Yasum's great path..."

The angry and resentful roars intertwined with a hoarse and low voice.

The souls of the older and younger brothers were separated.

Ryan was locked in a dark, sunless coffin.

"If only... I were a powerful warrior..."

Obsession and resentment ultimately could not overcome that mysterious, intoxicating power.

There was nothing peaceful about the night sky and the two stars.
