Chapter 242 "The Eternal Land, Omphalos"

"When I came here, I happened to see a child holding it. He said that this flower was prepared by Aunt Trish for the "Watchmaker", a comrade-in-arms who he had missed all his life."

"Mikhail would place two bouquets of flowers here every year. After he left, there were three. Your wish has always been remembered by someone..."

"Now, as you would expect, Pinocchio has ushered in the dawn after a long night. The road ahead may not be smooth, but people are ready to move towards "freedom."

"Tiernen, you can go home now, and the future Nameless Guests are ready to set off for their next stop."

"But before we leave, we have one last thing to do." Ji Zi's voice suddenly appeared behind Huang Quan.

Huang Quan turned around and found that it was the people from the Starry Sky Train.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you and the old nameless guests." Xing said to Huang Quan, then looked at the tombstone.

"This is my honor. I have experienced too many farewells. I am very happy that this time I can say goodbye to you with a smile."

"But before you leave, you probably have a lot to say to the nameless guests of the past, right? Putting a perfect end to the stories of the deceased is the best consolation. Go, they are all here." Huang Quan said, and then made way.

"To be honest, when I first heard the conductor's request, I was quite surprised. Anonymous... Anonymous, people who "pioneer" never leave their names when doing good things. So much time has passed. How can we find the whereabouts of those three people in such a big Pinocchio?"

"But now it seems...in the 'Land of Dreams', everything is possible." Sanyueqi sighed.

“History may not leave behind the names of the deceased, but the stars will bear witness to their footsteps. The first ray of light that arrives in the long night often cannot illuminate anything, because it is fleeting and the night is too long.”

"But people will remember that if there is always something lighting up in the night sky, then after the first star falls... there will be countless more shooting stars across the sky."

"Boreklin Tiernan, Lazarina Jane Estella, I salute you, the pioneers of the Milky Way, to the history that is no longer silent, to the passionate and brave rush, and to the journey to the stars." Danheng raised his glass and said.

"Ragwork Shar Mikhail, greetings to you, the "watchmaker" of the land of dreams, the unknown guest of the Star Train, and to Pinocchio's past, present, and future... and the dream of the child that will last until death." Jizi also raised her glass.

As Ji Zi finished speaking, Lin Yu and others also raised their glasses in unison. Everyone's face was filled with nostalgia for the past and longing for the future. They used this silent way to pay their deepest respect and remembrance to those nameless guests who had passed away.

"Do you remember when we first came to Pinoconi? No one could have thought at that time that our journeys would intersect in this way." Huang Quan looked at everyone and said.

"So...who are you?" Lin Yu asked.

"So, I didn't even get to introduce myself properly..."

"To put it simply, I am a self-destructor cursed by the Void. My hometown suffered a catastrophic disaster a long time ago, and the entire world perished under its reflection."

"In order to fight against the end of self-destruction, I set out on a journey to find a way to cut through the "nothingness". After a long search, I am sure that my destination is deep in the "black web" that separates reality and nothingness. "

"There lies the secret of the 9th Agency. One day, I will reach it."

"Even if the ending is already predetermined, it doesn't matter. There are too many things that people cannot change, but before that, on the road to the end, there are also many things we can do."

“And the ‘ending’ will therefore have a completely different meaning, and this is the meaning of the ‘journey’.”

"That beautiful thing was so before, and it is so now, and I also believe that it will still bloom at the end of the "nothingness" until we meet again in the sun."

...

"I hope I'm not too late, kid."

"I didn't think it would be you."

"Don't you know how many sentries the family has set up? How difficult it is to get you out of here?"

"It seems my time has come?"

"I don't quite understand what you mean, what do you mean... when?"

"Negotiation, interrogation, or an outright lynching... My fate depends entirely on you, Ms. Ci Yu. Now that things have come to this, why bother pretending to be nice and giving a dying man a chance to speak?" Sunday said to Feicui.

"Even though you've fallen from the altar, you still look great. I'm happy to see you so energetic."

"Stop insulting my dignity with riddles. Did you come to see me just to satisfy your own vicious vanity?" Sunday glared at her viciously.

"Of course not. I'm here to fulfill your sister's wish and offer you an absolutely generous deal. It just depends on whether you are willing to accept it."

"Mockingbird..?" Sunday was suddenly silent.

"'Build a true paradise where everyone can find peace', this is the promise you two made, right? If I tell you that you still have a chance to fulfill this promise... would you be willing to talk to me?"

"I know this question is heavy, so there is no need to agree to me now. Let's go, you are free. The chosen one who tried to transcend his duties should break his wings, go to the human world, walk on the earth, and see what this world really looks like." Jade said, and then removed Sunday's shackles.

"I will not accept your charity."

"I said, this is a deal, and you don't need to respond immediately. The harvest will not come overnight. What I am best at is waiting. The dream is still going on, and the night is still long. You have plenty of time to think about it slowly. Ah, let me give you one more word before we leave. Just take it as advice from someone who has experienced it..."

“Life is short, don’t miss the opportunity.”

...

At this time, on the Star Dome Train.

"Wooooo..Pah.."

"Okay, okay... Pam, cheer up! Don't be sad, don't cry..." March 7 comforted Pam.

"Your way of comforting people is really simple and old-fashioned." Dan Heng shook his head and couldn't bear to watch any more.

"Well...it's better than just watching the show from the sidelines!" San Yue Qi said, not knowing who he was implying.

"What happened? Did March bully Pam again?" As soon as Xing returned to the train, she saw Pam crying beside March.

"Hey, you're finally back! After I told Pam about this adventure, she suddenly started crying... I've never seen Pam so sad..." March Seven explained to Xing.

"Wow... conductor... conductor won't cry! He's not... he's not sad!"

"Pam is just..just..just angry Pam! Yes, angry!"

"Every time..every time no matter where the train stops, you guys always make a scene! No passengers will follow the departure time planned in advance by Pam! If you keep going like this, the train will run out of fuel!"

"That's right, Pam is just angry... not because of Misha, Tiernan, Lazarina and the others... woooooooooooooo!"

Suddenly, Pam burst into tears.

"It's okay, just cry as much as you can, Pam." Jizi squatted beside Pam, picked her up, and then sat on the sofa.

"Everyone, can we go to the next carriage to rest for a while? Don't worry, I'm here with you." Ji Zi said to Xing and the others.

"but.."

"Let's go, Sanyue." Dan Heng urged upon seeing this.

After everyone returned to the corridor of the guest carriage, March 7 spoke again.

"I didn't expect Pam's reaction to be so big..."

"Those three 'Unknown Guests' must be its very important companions." Dan Heng said.

"No one knows when Pam boarded the train, but it is conceivable that she must have experienced many meetings and partings along the way that we can hardly imagine."

"I think it's a good thing that Pam cried like this, because it proves that Pam has not been worn down by the long time. She still cherishes every anonymous passenger who has boarded the train and every journey she has experienced with them."

"Leave the job of comforting to Jizi. After all, no one on this train is better at "guiding" others than her." Walter said, signaling March 7 not to worry too much.

"Just now Pam said that the 'fuel' is running out...what does that mean? Is it related to the previous True Stinging Insect King?" Lin Yu asked.

"Even though Pam was venting more about her emotions, it's true what she said."

"Since the pioneers joined, the train has taken longer than expected to reach each subsequent station. In order to ensure that all members are present, Pam has had to postpone the jump schedule again and again." Walter explained.

"So that's why... No wonder I often hear Pam pacing anxiously in the corridor." Danheng said, holding his chin.

"It turns out that the train conductor has been silently contributing to us..."

"Unlike ordinary vehicles, the Star Train will convert each exploration into energy to maintain its operation. Ideally, as long as the exploration journey continues, the train will be able to obtain a steady stream of power and continue to move forward like a perpetual motion machine."

"But because of what happened before... the fuel consumption is faster than expected, and two more jumps may be the limit." Walter shook his head.

"Twice... isn't that dangerous? Oh, I don't want to turn into an ice cube drifting in space again!"

"It's 'Beautiful Girl Ice Cube.'" Xing joked.

"Now that you put it that way, it seems like the scene isn't that bleak anymore?"

"Oh, that's not right! I don't want to turn back into the 'beautiful ice girl' drifting in space!" March Seven shook himself.

"That is to say, this must be considered when choosing the next destination." Dan Heng looked at Walter.

"Yes, I have checked the star map. The worlds closer to us are the "Ocean Planet" Rusalka and the "Agate World" Melustain."

"As for choosing which one to be our destination, we still have to vote..." Walter suggested.

Suddenly, March 7's room was opened and a man walked out.

"Or, you can listen to my suggestion. Hello everyone."

"It's you?! How did you get out of my room..."

"What a lovely room, Miss March, just like you." Black Swan smiled at March Seven.

“I’m very cute, that’s right.”

"No! How did you get on the train?!"

"What did you do in my room? Did you install a bug or a camera?" March 7 stared at Black Swan.

"Rememberer...regardless of how you managed to avoid being seen and heard and board the train, what do you mean by the 'proposal' you just mentioned?" Walter said, then pressed his hand down, signaling Dan Heng not to do anything.

"I overheard about how the train gets "fuel". I originally just wanted to chat with you and see if we could reach a cooperation. Now it seems that my proposal may be your life-saving straw. "

"Just say what you want to say. Depending on the content, we may also ask you to get off the car." Dan Heng crossed his arms and looked at her.

"A descendant of the immortal? You are such a charming little dragon, especially your muddy memories... Let's not talk about the topic anymore. If the Star Train is in urgent need of a special pioneering journey to replenish the "power" for the engine,

"Have you ever thought about this? If your destination is a world that even the famous Akivali has never reached...if you can lay a new silver track in the universe, then the train will probably never have to worry about energy again." Black Swan said in a slightly exaggerated tone.

Upon hearing this, San Yue Qi covered his mouth in surprise, seeming to have completely forgotten his previous unhappiness: "Exploring a world that even Akivali has never been to...is this really possible?"

"Go on, Rememberer, the destination you mentioned, what kind of world is that?" Walter asked.

"A world that most people in the universe are unaware of its existence... A world that is difficult to observe from the outside and can only be reflected by the Mirror of the Courtyard of Memory... A world that is bound by the triple destiny and has an uncertain fate..."

"The Eternal Land, Omphalos."

...

After Lin Yu returned to the room, he sat alone at the table, with his hands folded and his brows furrowed. The words "Eternal Land, Omphalos" echoed repeatedly in his mind.

"Master, we are back." Sisi and the others suddenly appeared in Lin Yu's room, interrupting Lin Yu's thoughts.

"Um.."

Lin Yu responded softly, seeming a little absent-minded.

"Master..." Sisi walked to Lin Yu's side, with a hint of urgency in her voice, "I know a little about the world that the rememberer mentioned."

Lin Yu heard this, raised his head suddenly, and looked at Sisi: "Oh? Tell me about it."

"It's a chaotic place where memories are intertwined," Sisi said seriously, "There, memories are as numerous as stars. Whether they are deliberately preserved or forgotten, they will be copied and preserved in some way. However, the power of this memory... is extremely dangerous."

She paused and continued, "In that world, you have the ability to change everything in your memory, and these changes can react on individuals in reality..."

"That is to say...if you change a person's personality and identity in your memory, then in reality...that person will be changed into the one in your memory..."

"But..if you die in my memory..you are really dead..."

"And if the protagonist in the memory dies...the one in reality..." Sisi didn't finish her words, but Lin Yu had already guessed it.

As Lin Yu listened to Sisi's description, his eyes gradually became solemn and deep. He stood up, slowly walked to the window, staring at the vast starry sky outside the window, with complex emotions surging in his heart.

"Change everything in the memory... and give back to the individual in reality..." Lin Yu repeated this sentence in a low voice.

"If you step into that world... not only will you face unknown dangers, but you will also have to take on the huge responsibility of changing history and influencing reality?"
