Chapter 694: Chapter 364: Tampered Memory_2

——6/8]

The diary’s sixth page spans a considerable period. It skips straight to three years later, when Louise moves to a different residence and parts ways with Mian Mian. Yet, she welcomes a new roommate, the character ’Sayaka,’ mentioned in the seventh page of the diary.

The diary specifically mentions that Sayaka speaks a different language rather than the Star Spirit Language. This reinforces Mu You’s belief that Sayaka could be an Earthling, abducted to the Star Spirit World via a space fissure.

Louise entered the underground factory four years ago. According to the diary, events written three years later refer to the incidents one year ago.

Mu You logs into the Exchange Group’s shared chat, opens up the missing persons database shared by Japan, and searches for ’Sayaka’, ’6-8 years old’, and ’10-15 months ago’.

But the search yields no results.

He attempts again by broadening some conditions. Still, the results are the same. Although many missing persons share the name Sayaka, the youngest one was at least 13 - clearly not a match.

Did he guess wrong? Is Sayaka not Japanese? Or is Sayaka not her real name?

Mu You is uncertain.

Nevertheless, with the sixth page discovered, he has now gathered seven of the eight pages of the diaries. They are starting to tell a complete story, recounting the experiences Louise had after entering the factory for three years. They exposed the darkness within the Undead, hinting at what the other children went through.

The still missing eighth page is the most important one as it should reveal the conclusion of Louise’s story and explain how Shadow Ghosts are made.

Unfortunately, now that his identity is exposed, the Shadow Men have started to be wary of mechanical life, and infiltrating underground again seems nearly impossible.

Therefore, for the next day, Mu You resumed his usual routine of shuttling between the academy and the Underground City in the game.

The progress in Dawn City’s Underground City has now reached the fourth level.

Yes, the boss of the third level has already been defeated by an exploration party. Mu You is unsurprised by this; these past few days, his attention has been mainly on the Undead, and he hasn’t paid much attention to the Underground City. Being preempted once is completely normal.

After days of adaptation, major forces have stabilized their exploration team system. With increased experience, even as difficulty ramps up with each lower level, the progress seems to be speeding up.

If we continue at this speed, the Underground City will be completely explored in about a week.

Mu You is satisfied with this pace, so they haven’t made any additional moves regarding the Underground City; everyone is free to act as they please.

Around seven in the afternoon, all players received a common prompt.

The City of Twilight has been successfully activated, the first City Lord: Holy Light Nana.

Another Sky City activated, the City Lord ID is an unfamiliar name to many. What’s more important is that she is another member of the Celestial Dynasty!

The international forums are once again stirred up. There was already an outcry when half of the eight cities went to the Celestial Dynasty. Now the Celestial Dynasty has claimed a ninth, bringing their share to over half. This stirred other nations into action.

The topic of Sky Cities equally accepting global players was brought up for debate again. It began to intensify, overshadowing the identity of the new City Lord ’Holy Light Nana’.

Members of the Secret Techniques Association were calm about this because they were familiar with ’Holy Light Nana,’ who is actually Libra’s Avatar Card.

Libra and Capricorn announced in a meeting early this morning that they are planning for the conquest of the City of Twilight. They agreed on remote support from others, so they were not surprised when the City Lord was successfully taken. Everyone congratulated them.

This means that the Secret Techniques Association now has their second Sky City.

About an hour later, Mu You received a private message from Libra and Capricorn, asking for advice on Sky City construction.

Mu You didn’t withhold any information and sent them the document Jiu You gave him regarding the construction sequence. He also shared some of the pitfalls and experiences he accumulated while constructing Dawn City.

After dealing with the Twilight City issues, it was already night in Japan. The sky outside had completely darkened.

Mu You put on his rarely used Medicinal Plant Gatherer skin and headed out into the moonlit, windy night.

Following the address given by Ye Rumeng, Mu You made his way to the Aoki District near Chitani and found her residence behind a commercial street.

It was a two-story house, but it was pitch black inside. The tightly shut doors and the overgrown weeds in the yard suggested that it had been long abandoned.

Mu You approached the gate and noticed the seal and notices posted on the front door.

He used a translation app to decipher them. The notices conveyed that the property was state-owned and was undergoing property disposal processes. For any enquiries, contact the number listed below.

"Excuse me... Who are you looking for?"

As Mu You was busy with the translation app, a woman’s voice suddenly came from the side.

Turning to look, he saw a middle-aged woman at the doorway of a neighboring house, looking at him with caution. She held bags full of food supplies, seemingly just back from work.
