Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 253 Lost Memory

"It's been a long time since I lost consciousness -" Yug replied calmly. "When I first started traveling two years ago, I would have an average of two to three irregular headaches, dizziness, and accompanying symptoms two or three times a month. You and my junior sister both know about the temporary hallucinations that came here, which is why I chose to leave the academy and go out to relax."

"Thankfully, the situation was greatly relieved after half a year. Not only did the frequency of attacks drop to about once every two months, but the symptoms were also much milder. Until seven months ago, that was the last time I felt deep in my mind. There was a dull pain, but I haven’t had another attack since.”

After hearing this, Lusette's tense brows finally relaxed a little. He turned his head and looked at each other with Se Lian, and each saw a bit of relief in the other's eyes.

Unlike Se Lian, who has been immersed in books and experiments, the path Yog chose can be said to be a blood-stained road bathed in battles and killings from beginning to end.

The martial atmosphere and endless duels in Haimo's classroom can only be regarded as an appetizer for his mage career. Going out again and again to experience, take risks, and kill fallen mages and heretics is the main theme of Yog's life.

Starting from Lienia in the west, to Galid and the Far Eastern Islands in the east, to the Weeping Peninsula in the south, and to the Huasheng Snowfield in the north, Yug's pace in the past ten years has covered almost all areas of human activity within the Sea of ​​Mist.

He put on the Seamo armor, put on the staff and warhammer and embarked on expeditions countless times, and triumphed countless times with the record of defeating the heretical strongman, bringing the reputation of Rhea Lucaria and the Seamo battle mage with him. Together, his footprints are imprinted on the history of the Golden Age, becoming a symbol of the prosperous age spoken and written by bards and biographers.

However, even where the golden brilliance shines brightest, there are shadows buried behind it that cannot be eliminated for thousands of years. In the unknown corners of this prosperous age, the hidden power of conspirators and careerists far exceeds the common sense of the world. , even the recognition of people of the same level as Lusset and Azler.

Before Yug's accident, no one believed that the strongest mage of the younger generation in the academy would be defeated in a small battle to clean up the remnants of the Godskin believers.

Even after Yug's accident, the college's senior management and Haimo Classroom still couldn't understand how a group of rural idiots who only worshiped the Godskin Apostles and were not even the real relatives of the Queen of Death could cause such serious trauma to him. , even narrowly missing his life.

In front of them, there was only Yog, who had been missing for seven months after the cleaning mission, and then suddenly appeared in front of the door overnight, seriously injured and dying, and the endless mysteries that followed.

Counting from the disappearance of Yug in March of the 44th year of the Golden Calendar, he was missing for seven months and was seriously injured and comatose for three full months. After regaining consciousness, he only remembered that he was suddenly hit hard by an attack from behind after the cleanup was completed. He had no idea what happened after that.

The hideous penetrating wounds and ugly suture scars on his chest were enough to confirm his memory - but whether it was an existence that could cause such injuries on his body or heal such injuries, they were by no means ordinary. During the frantic search after the war, the college only found a village that had been burned to ashes, but could not grasp any relevant clues at all.

Who seriously injured him, and who cured him from a near-death state. The most chilling thing is that after the penetrating injury, the cuts and sutures that covered almost every corner of Yug's body were obviously not in the Caused in battle.

It is not difficult to see from the perspective of the academy's top management that someone has been conducting human experiments on Yug for at least half a year, and the cruelty of the methods is not far behind that of the real sect that has long since faded into history.

But in the subsequent comprehensive inspection led by Luset himself, they were surprised to find no trace of modification on Yog.

Those enemies hiding in the dark seemed to have only tortured him inhumanely for half a year, without causing any permanent damage to him during this period, and finally returned Yogdul to them with one breath left.

In the nearly three years since he recovered from his injury, the once bold and informal Yuge has become silent and withdrawn. Except for his two teachers and junior sister Se Lian, he is almost unwilling to communicate with anyone, including his classmates at Haimo. Colleagues and comrades in the classroom. He was no longer keen on magic duels and physical training all day long. Instead, he picked up the magic books that he had abandoned as never before, and began to immerse himself in the knowledge and experiences left by his predecessors all day long.

In addition to studying, Yuge actually read novels, poems and biographies from all over the mainland, especially those fabricated stories about the war of gods and even the earlier Star-Moon Age and the Savage Age.

If Lusset and Azler hadn't single-handedly raised Yug, and had repeatedly confirmed that his magic level and magic talent had not deteriorated at all, they would have really suspected that this disciple had been replaced by a different person from head to toe.

It wasn't until two years ago that Yog seemed to finally make up his mind and prepare to leave the academy and go on an aimless trip, hoping to get himself back from the decadent life he had lived in for the past three years.

The two masters and Se Lian both expressed great agreement. After all, in their opinion, no matter what the outcome of this trip, no matter how bad it is, it cannot be worse than the past three years - sitting back and watching those close to them suffer from headaches from time to time. , fainting, hallucinations and past traumas, the feeling of being powerless is extremely painful for ordinary people, let alone these scholars who are at the top of the mainland?

Since all existing magic, prayer and medical methods cannot cure Yug, it is better to leave everything to himself. Perhaps when he regains his staff and warhammer, puts on his armor again, he rushes to defend justice and justice. On the front line, can we really return to our former selves?

At least that's what they expected. Yazler and Lusset prepared more than ten top-level magic scrolls at the level of forbidden spells in order to protect the safety of their disciples during this trip. Se Lian is determined to use some of the skills of the Pyroxene Body when his senior brother returns next time to help Yuge improve his physical condition to a peak level that is even better than before.

At least for now, it seems that Yog has returned safely and has successfully recovered most of his former self.

So Se Lian pretended to be normal and teased him about his behavior of carrying the heads of wanted criminals through the city. Luset also rarely joked with his disciples, just like the days when they got along with Yuge, and like the gloomy three The time in the year they had to lose.

"As for the memory of those seven months," Yuge rubbed his temples and said with some disappointment, "I'm sorry, teacher, I still can't remember anything. If I have to recall something from that deep nightmare, , probably just the lingering pain and fear in the subconscious."

He didn't lower his head to look at his chest, but the old injury seemed to still hurt inside the chest armor.

"It's okay, kid——"

At some point, Lusset had come to Yog's side again and put his head on his already somewhat old and decadent shoulders. "At least you have found your former self. This is more important than anything else."

"Everything will be fine, senior brother," Se Lian quickly wiped the corners of his eyes, stood up and said, "Believe me, it won't be long."

　I was sick for two days after finishing some errands last week. I didn't know if it was the flu. I felt pain in my spine so much that I couldn't straighten up. I managed to recover somewhat today and started updating. I had to postpone my leave to Sunday, so I will add 7 chapters later.

　　This year may be due to the fact that last year, everyone’s resistance has declined after being fully erect. It seems that there are many kinds of influenza, so everyone must pay more attention to their health.
