My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 426 Reunion with Lin Xia? The Realm of Memories!
The man froze, staring intently at Chu Zhu. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, and after confirming that he hadn't misread it, his breath caught in his throat for a moment. A look of surprise appeared in his eyes. He put down his wine glass, momentarily at a loss for what to do.

"..." His lips moved a few times, and in the end he could only manage to squeeze out a sentence: "Secretary-General Chu, long time no see!"

"?"

Seeing Chu Zhu remain silent, the blond man, though somewhat puzzled, didn't dwell on it and rushed forward, his face a mixture of excitement, trepidation, and fervor.

"Has it finally arrived! Has it reached this time of day... Damn it! I completely forgot... I've been waiting for so long..." The blond man was somewhat incoherent at this moment.

"..." Chu Zhu frowned more and more, looking the man up and down for a while. When the man tried to rush forward to hug him, he even subconsciously took a step back. At this moment, the blond man's expression froze.

Chu Zhu asked cautiously, "Could you tell me first... who are you?"

"? You... I'm Kevin!" The blond man was stunned, pointing to his face, his voice trembling, "A member of the Time Club! You personally summoned me here... I was originally from the Golden Dawn, um, you... you, you've forgotten me?!"

“…It’s you!” Chu Zhu’s lips twitched. This name did remind him; his good friend had indeed written about it in his diary before…

But the crucial issue now is that this is truly the first time he's ever met this person...

Chu Zhu was momentarily at a loss for what expression to make.

"That's normal. If nothing unexpected happens, he... probably doesn't remember you now, right?" A voice with a hint of helplessness rang out.

Chu Zhu's eyebrows twitched, and her heart was filled with turmoil.

He forced himself to calm down, turned his head, and saw a familiar face. A familiar face who, theoretically, should absolutely not be here—

"It really is you!" Chu Zhu's voice was calm, but it seemed to contain a thousand emotions.

"Lin Xia!"

After a brief silence, Chu Zhu suddenly turned around, only to find that the big orange cat was nowhere to be seen. Looking around, Chu Zhu's eyes twitched as she looked at... the big orange cat, slumped on the sofa in the distance, expertly pulling out potato chips from the table and starting to munch on them.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Zhu forced down her impulse to rush forward, pick up the big orange cat, and question Lin Xia about her situation. She looked at Lin Xia again, her brows furrowed: "Aren't you... with Nuwa right now?"

"Nuwa? What happened to my dear granddaughter?" Lin Xia was shocked.

"???" Chu Zhu was completely dumbfounded.

“That’s normal!” Another voice rang out. Chu Zhu silently turned his head and saw another familiar face… or rather, a semi-stranger?
It was Huo Zisi's daughter, Miss Huo Yuan!
However, the current Huo Yuan is completely different from that somewhat rebellious girl. She wears gold-rimmed glasses and exudes the air of a literary young woman, her eyes gentle yet full of wisdom.

She pushed open a previously closed door, strode into the bar, nodded to Chu Zhu, glanced at Lin Xia, and sighed, "It's really hard to imagine that you would actually be... the Secretary-General of the 27th United Government!"

Chu Zhu: "..."

Chu Zhu felt that her thoughts were becoming increasingly chaotic!
Wait, Lin Xia... is the 27th Secretary-General of the United Government?

Chu Zhu was momentarily at a loss for what expression to make. His good brother had really made something of himself!

"No, no, no..." Lin Xia quickly waved her hand, looked at Chu Zhu, and said with a wry smile, "Strictly speaking, it's actually a clone who possesses my memories and became the 27th Secretary-General... Um, I also carried out my sister-in-law... Ms. Guan's cloning plan! So there's a clone of me in every time period... Of course, this refers to the period when my original body is frozen! Once my original body becomes active again, this plan will be discontinued... So!"

“…I see.” Chu Zhu nodded thoughtfully, then her lips twitched. “However, that’s not what’s puzzling me right now!”

"? What's that?" Lin Xia paused for a moment, then began to recall their previous conversation.

"?" Chu Zhu felt like she was laughing in anger. "Let me explain." Huo Yuan paused for a moment, gazing at Chu Zhu's face, a hint of nostalgia and gentleness appearing in her eyes.

She pursed her lips: "Chu... um, Secretary-General! Strictly speaking! The people here... are not living people."

Chu Zhu frowned slightly, a guess forming in her mind: "AI... a simulated personality?"

He had heard of this technology in the real world... it seemed to be about uploading digitized personalities to the internet?
The development of even more advanced technologies that can almost perfectly simulate personality in the future... doesn't seem entirely incomprehensible!

"Pfft!" Huo Yuan laughed: "My goodness... I have to say, to see such a clueless secretary-general! It's really..."

Chu Zhu stared at Huo Yuan expressionlessly.

"Um, I was just joking, you're not angry, are you... Ahem, okay! Let's not waste any more time." Huo Yuan coughed, her expression turning serious: "Strictly speaking, we are actually... memory entities!"

"...Memory?" Upon hearing these two words, Chu Zhu suddenly had a guess.

"Yes!" Huo Yuan exclaimed, "Just as you guessed... this is your sixth level of supernatural power!"

"Third-level memory users can transform themselves into a part of the memory! They are immune to all physical attacks."

"The fifth realm... I don't know about that! After all, supernatural powers are kept secret."

"Sixth Realm Divine Power, Recalling the Past!"

"Summon the people from my memories!"

“So, strictly speaking,” Kevin coughed, picking up the thread, “we are actually the people you remember… not the real people!”

"...That's not entirely true." Lin Xia looked at Chu Zhu thoughtfully, glared fiercely at Kevin, and quickly added, "They were simply summoned using supernatural powers; they're just the version of us from your memories!"

"However, if we merge our memories with the original body, and synchronize our memories, then we are basically no different from the original body... Could we call it a clone? An avatar?"

Lin Xia's words were somewhat uncertain, and he rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache: "But speaking of which... apart from the memories I synchronized with once in the post-civilization era! It's been a long time since I've synchronized with these other people... um! Especially Kevin, his original body should have died in the 22nd century... so now! uh."

“…I see!” After a brief silence, Chu Zhu quietly scanned her surroundings. “So this base is…!”

"It's the memory domain you created!" Lin Xia raised an eyebrow. He suddenly remembered something, stepped forward, and grabbed Chu Zhu's hand. "Let me show you around..."

"Wait a minute! I should do it." Huo Yuan's expression changed slightly.

"...You're a wolf in sheep's clothing! Go study your book yourself." Lin Xia sneered, then took a step forward.

The next instant, Chu Zhu found that the scene around her had changed drastically.

He found himself in the sky.

Blue sky, white clouds, a gentle breeze on your face... everything feels so real!
Chu Zhu quietly looked down at the city below, a city that felt both familiar and strange! People came and went, cars streamed by... and there was that enormous university—

“Jinling University?!” Chu Zhu murmured.
