Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1454 Modify Memory and Erase Traces
So peaceful!

So much so that it is not like a prisoner imprisoned by the enemy in a strange place at all, but more like a domesticated and docile pet, staying in his own small cage, leading a quiet and unchanging life!

There is no need to go back to memory, Xia Duo still clearly remembers the sentence that the other party almost impassionedly shouted three days ago-"We are not slaves of the elves!"

But the current Yuva is not as strong as before. You must know that there are no restrictive spells on him now, and this prison is only the lowest level of ordinary prison.

He can't even cast spells, but only restricts the teleportation through the ether plane. If Yuva knows the teleportation spell through the astral plane, it is entirely possible to escape from the prison.

But now the other party was sitting very quietly on the edge of the stone bed in the prison, staring at the direction of the exit, but even if Xia Duo blocked the other party's line of sight, the other party's expression and behavior did not change at all.

It's like a vegetative person who has lost his wits.

Through the fence made of slender force field columns outside the prison, Xia Duo softly called out the other party's name——

"Yuva?"

The next moment, Yuva's eyes focused on Xia Duo, as if his consciousness had returned to him, but the first sentence he said shocked Xia Duo——

"Who are you? How do you know my name is Yuva?"

Hearing what the other party said, Xia Duo was really shocked. Three days ago, he did use psychic spells on Yuva, but it didn't involve memory. Even if there were any sequelae, it wouldn't cause amnesia!

Furthermore, even if you lose your memory, can you still have selective amnesia?

Xia Duo had heard of this kind of symptom on Earth, but it was limited to hearing about it, and he had never seen it in reality!

In fact, he has never even seen someone who lost his memory, and the reality is a stick movie, so it is not so easy to lose his memory.

So, he asked the other party again: "You know your name is Yuva? How do you know?"

"Of course I know that my name is Yuva. I had this name before I was born." Yuva replied.

"Then do you remember the Green Vine Tribe?"

"Green Vine Tribe? Where is that?"

Mentioning this name that he should be very familiar with, Yuva was quite confused, and similarly, this also made Xia Duo very confused.

This doesn't look like it's an act at all, and even if it's an act, there's no need to act like this.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo didn't ask the other party anymore, but directly cast a spell to check the other party's memory. This is actually a variant version of the [Mind Link] spell.

Although Xia Duo hadn't practiced it before, he was familiar with it.

After some inspection, he was surprised to find that the other party's memory actually had a problem——

There is no trace of the green vine tribe at all, replaced by another strange tribe with very vague details.

As soon as the memory itself is very vague, but there is still a big difference between fuzzy and fuzzy. At least in a person's life, all memories have a certain degree of convergence, which is caused by the automatic processing of information received by the human consciousness on the senses. of.

As long as a person is not suddenly stimulated or has a big change in temperament, otherwise his overall memory should be smooth. This is the conclusion Xia Duo reached based on his own experience in tracing memory.

Although this is only an empirical conclusion, Xia Duo believes that most intelligent creatures should conform to this rule.

In Yuva's memory, the part that should have been replaced by the Green Vine Tribe now showed a "burr feeling" that was significantly different from the consistency.

Or in other words - traces of human interference.

Xia Duo is also proficient in psychic spells, but his psychic spells mainly come from the judgment spells in [Projection Plane Arcane Empire] and [Remnants of the Empire].

He doesn't have much experience in weaving and restoring memories, especially restoring memories, and he can't perform such fine operations at his current level.

Of course, he knows the principle of restoring memory. It is nothing more than peeling off the cocoons through the rest of the memories that have been judged to be true, finding out the contradictions, abnormal points, and violation points, and then restoring them bit by bit.

However, all of Yuva's memories about the Green Vine Tribe have been wiped out. Perhaps there are inconsistencies in them, but the original and perfect memory system about the concept of "Green Vine Tribe" has been completely erased .

Wanting to restore is almost equivalent to rebuilding this part of memory.

In other words, it is almost impossible for Yuva to return to his original state.

Unless he has kept a memory backup before, or there is a powerful person who can trace the entire state of a certain moment in the past for him.

But thinking about it is also unlikely. The preservation of memory backup involves the processing of sensory information by consciousness. It is not just some information, but more similar to the personality model defined by Xia Duo.

Even Xia Duo can't save his memory outside of his body and consciousness now!Not to mention Yuva.

It is even more difficult to trace the entire state of a person in the past. Basically, tracing what happened in a certain area in the past is already the limit of what scrying spells can do, and it is still very unstable.

Memory is not a specific thing, but a very private personal attribute, and it is difficult to leave traces in the real world.

It is basically impossible to trace back.

There is a saying on the earth - "It is often easier to destroy than to create".

Modifying the memory is very simple, as long as there are no special requirements, it is like a child's graffiti, and it can be done easily, but restoring the memory is a delicate task! (Order is not easy~)

……

Xia Duo thought about restoring Yuva's memory, but it was limited to thinking about it. For a long time, he didn't have time to do it.

"It seems that we have to find another way!"

It's not that Xia Duo insisted on getting to the bottom of it, but that this matter was very strange. When he already knew about it, he had to give himself a plausible reason, otherwise it would always be like a thorn in his heart. Not happy.

……

After thinking for a while, Xia Duo left the Tower of Time, went to the Codex Square outside again, concealed himself and randomly found a member of the Gray Eagle tribe, and cast a memory retrieval spell on him.

The result shocked him again, the memory of this Greyhawk tribe also showed traces of human interference, but it was not as thorough as Yuva,
The green vine tribe in the memory of the Gray Eagle people is just a little-known small tribe in the west of the Langas Plain.

Not much more, and even the memory of the Green Vine tribe and several other big tribes jointly issuing a hunting call to the Gray Eagle tribe not long ago has disappeared.

This situation shocked Xia Duo, it was the first time he encountered such a situation.

Next, he found more than a dozen Gray Eagle people and checked their memories one by one. As expected, all of these dozen people had memory problems.

They are all related to the Green Vine Tribe. It seems that an unknown spell has erased the existence of the Green Vine Tribe.

Even the Green Vine Tribe that existed in other people's memory was erased!
"Is it really the Moon Shadow Family? What are they doing?"

Thinking that he might also encounter this unknown spell that can modify memory, but it failed to take effect for some reason, Xia Duo suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Originally, I wanted to ask the elves of the Moon Shadow family directly, but now he won't even mention it.
