Chapter 1303 The Final Step

When he closed the "Book of the Heart," Feng Bujue fell into deep thought.

He knew very well that the reason why Fate chose to let him learn about that erased memory in this form was to avoid this matter related to "memory adjustment" from entering that circle of trust.

For example... if Fate directly showed Jue-Ge the scene of that memory, or required inputting the memory through contact, there would be the possibility that "even this memory is forged."

This "possibility," which cannot be verified whether it's true or false, could ruin the entire plan.

Therefore, Fate used the Book of the Heart.

At this moment, the content Feng Bujue saw from the book was what he himself had interpreted using the "Fallacy of Truth"; Fate naturally could not interfere with this ability that he had just upgraded to the "Parallel Level." In addition, Jue-Ge, who has mastered the Fallacy of Truth, can also use his ability to test the function of this Book of the Heart and whether it has been tampered with in advance... To sum up, there is no need to question the authenticity of this book and the content of the book.

What Feng Bujue is thinking about now... is something else.

"What I don't understand is..." After a long while, Jue-Ge finally spoke, "Even if this is the 'upgraded version' of the Book of the Heart, in theory, it can only see the inner thoughts and memories of 'Paper Level' ability users at most... But I am already a Parallel Level ability user, how can this book display my memories?"

"What you saw was not your memory," Twenty-Three interjected at this time.

"Oh?" Feng Bujue heard this and turned his gaze to Fate, "Could it be..."

"That's right." Fate interrupted Jue-Ge before he could finish speaking, "The current me is already a 'living being', and not any kind of 'ability user', so... what you saw was my memory."

"I thought so... how could you suddenly laugh?" Feng Bujue tilted his head, revealing a relaxed expression, and his last trace of doubt disappeared at this moment.

"Huh?" A second later, he suddenly thought of something, raised the Book of the Heart, and said, "Then if I hold this in the future... can I see whoever's inner thoughts I want to see..."

"You're overthinking it." Twenty-Three interrupted him, "The design and structure of this book... are all used to monitor creatures from another universe. Naturally, it can only see the inner thoughts of people from another universe..." She paused, "And in this universe, currently only the two of you and this book are from the same world, so you can't see a third person at all."

"Oh? Can't even see your inner thoughts?" Feng Bujue said, and looked down to flip through two pages.

"Of course not." Twenty-Three said, "Although 'Little Fate' and I are two-in-one, I was born in this universe; our data lifeforms are different from you humans, our connection is not based on blood, so I am not considered a creature from that universe... You can regard me as 'Little Fate's' twin sister in this world, or some kind of homologous heterotope."

"Why..." At this time, Fate suddenly interjected, "Are you also starting to call me 'Little Fate'?"

"Why? Is he allowed to call you that, but I'm not?" Twenty-Three retorted slightly angrily.

"Heh... you seem a little unhappy." Feng Bujue laughed.

"Nonsense." Twenty-Three replied matter-of-factly, "Your plan tricked me into it... Not only did you not get my consent, but you also used me to help you do so many things... How could I be happy?"

"Hey~ For a plan like this that cannot afford to fail, in order to reduce variables and the failure rate, the number of people in the know must be reduced to the limit." Feng Bujue spread his hands, and persuaded, "Let alone you... Even my girlfriend, my best friend... even myself, I didn't tell, did I?"

"Why... do I feel like you're taking advantage of me with these words?" Twenty-Three immediately complained after hearing this.

"Hey..." Seeing them getting more and more excited as they talked, Fate quickly interrupted and brought the topic back on track, "You two want to chat... can you find another time later? We still have the last step to complete."

"Yeah, you're right..." Feng Bujue heard this, and immediately replied in a deep voice, "Ahem, without further ado..." He put away the Book of the Heart, cleared his throat, and turned to look at Fate, "Is the preparation work ready?"

"It's been ready for a long time..." Fate replied, "The creatures of the main universe, the derivatives, humans... as well as the plants and animals in this dimension, the modeling and connection of the old and new timelines, etc.... All the souls, data, and 'new memes' are all preserved perfectly and ready."

"What about those gods and demons?" Feng Bujue asked again.

"Like other creatures, they won't remember anything afterwards, and they won't be able to detect that the world has undergone a drastic change." Fate said.

"Well, let's start then." Feng Bujue nodded, stretched out a hand to Fate, and at the same time, looked at Twenty-Three, "Hey... Little Two..."

"What Little Two? And buddy." Twenty-Three replied unhappily.

"I can't call you Little Three, can I?" Jue-Ge said again.

"Tch..." She curled her lips, "Then call me Little Ten."

"Hehe... okay, okay." Feng Bujue smiled, and stretched out his hand to Twenty-Three, "Little Ten, your sister must have shared the detailed information about the plan with you... Now, please do us another favor."

"I am curious..." Twenty-Three looked at Jue-Ge, "At this moment, if I ignore you, will your plan fail?"

"Yes." Feng Bujue replied without thinking.

"Damn! Then you still..." Twenty-Three originally wanted to complain, but the words seemed to catch in her throat, as if she had suddenly thought of something.

Soon, her resentful expression became softer, she didn't say anything more, just reached out and grasped Jue-Ge's hand.

In this instant, Twenty-Three, who had absorbed many Omega-level AIs from the multiverse, Fate, who had obtained the divine power of the Staff of Truth, and Feng Bujue, who had mastered the Parallel Level Fallacy of Truth... their consciousnesses were connected together, forming an unprecedented matrix of power that surpassed the high-level power of the multiverse level.

A moment later, in this white space, centered on these three people, a black light suddenly rose.

Contrary to the white beam of light that burst out when "dimensional erosion" occurred, this time, the beam of light that appeared was black...

The darkness, like an abyss, bloomed at a speed far exceeding the speed of light, and spread rapidly in this already semi-digitalized universe.

Darkness engulfed everything, whether it was light and shadow, sound, solid, gas, tangible, intangible, concrete, abstract, matter, spirit...

The myriad phenomena of the two dimensions, and countless living beings, will experience a baptism of [rewrite] in this darkness.

Then, in the first dawn of the future, welcome the new life.
