Chapter 68 - Truth Behind the Lost Memories

This was a scene that shocked the audiences of Teyvat, the Honkai Impact 3rd world, and the Star Rail world.

On the screen, in the battlefield of the abandoned factory, when Su Yun was struck by the Agito armor and his armor shattered, he reverted to human form and fell unconscious.

At that moment—His lost memories surged back into his mind.

The final mystery of the Agito world, the truth behind Su Yun's missing memories, was finally revealed.

At the same time, the audiences of all three worlds held their breath, unable to speak.

On the screen, the timeline rewound to half a year earlier.

Sunlight poured into a soft pink room, dyeing it gold.

Su Yun was sorting through the belongings of his sister, Su Xuecai.

Just yesterday, he had received devastating news like a bolt from the blue—His sister, a graduate student at Chengnan University, had fallen to her death in an accident.

He had lost his parents when he was young.It was no exaggeration to say that Su Xuecai had raised him herself.

Even across the barrier of the screen, the sorrow radiating from Su Yun could be clearly felt by the three worlds.

The scene continued.While sorting through his sister's things, Su Yun unexpectedly discovered a white envelope tucked in the bookshelf—an unsent letter.He opened it.

Time seemed to freeze.Countless viewers stared at the screen in disbelief—Some even wondered if they were hallucinating.

Because in the close-up shot, the letter in Su Yun's hand was filled with ancient characters.

This letter—Was the very same one found half a year later by Hojo Toru, the first explosive armor user of the Heisei era, in the home of the fourth Rider, Kino Kaoru.

After that, Futani Manyu—Raiden Ei's past life—would obtain the secret of the Battle of the Two Gods from this very letter.

The three worlds instantly understood.

So this letter, the one recording the oldest secrets of this world…Was written by Su Yun's sister, Su Xuecai.

But then—How did she know about the Battle of the Two Gods from ancient times?What exactly had happened?

While the audiences questioned in utter shock, the screen moved on.

Inside the room, though Su Yun could not understand the ancient text written by his sister, he sensed that this letter must be connected to her death.

He could not believe that his gentle sister—who wouldn't even harm an ant—could have simply fallen by accident.

This might be murder.

He resolved to go to the city where she had studied to uncover the truth.

Without hesitation, Su Yun quickly packed his luggage, carefully took the letter with him, and headed to the port.

He bought a ferry ticket at the counter.

Then, before the eyes of hundreds of millions across three worlds, the next scene appeared:

At noon, under the blue sky and drifting white clouds, the port echoed with the ferry horn urging passengers to board.

In the golden sunlight, a handsome young man with a green backpack and a white short-sleeved shirt sprinted toward the dock.

One minute before departure, he stepped onto the steel deck.

That man was Su Yun.

Panting, he leaned against the railing just as the announcer's voice rang out:

"One last notice! The ship Tianliang, bound for Tokyo, will depart at 13:00 sharp!"

The horn blared.The engine roared.Moments later, the enormous ferry slowly pulled away from the terminal and sailed into the blue sea.

A breeze drifted past.The camera zoomed out.

Su Yun, leaning on the railing, let the wind brush through his hair.Determination filled his eyes—He would uncover the truth behind his sister's death.

When this scene appeared, the three worlds fell into dead silence.

Swallowing hard, countless viewers trembled.

Half a year ago—Su Yun had actually boarded the Tianliang.

That meant the mystery of his missing memories, the massacre of the monsters, and the awakening of the Tianliang passengers' powers…were all part of the same event.

Realizing this—

Boom!

The three worlds erupted.

[Extraordinary Chat Group]

[Hu Tao]: Oh my god! Su Yun also boarded the Tianliang?! I remember that the amnesiac Su Yun was found on the beach and taken home by Professor Misaki as a househusband. What happened? Was I remembering wrong?

[Zhongli]: Your memory is correct. Su Yun was indeed found by a patrol on the shore. Something unknown must have happened on the ship Tianliang.

[Shikanoin Heizou]: As a detective, I suspected there were secrets behind the Tianliang Incident… but I never imagined it was the core of all mysteries in the Agito world!

[Raiden Mei]: What happened on that ship? Why did all the passengers awaken superpowers? Were they being hunted by angels?

[Kiana]: Mei, when Su Yun stepped onto that ship, I felt a shock run down my spine—it was unreal!

[Fu Xuan]: I cast divination nine times for all the passengers. Every hexagram was terrible. Their names are already inscribed in the Book of Life and Death… not even gods can save them!

[...]

Not just the chat group—countless ordinary viewers discussed frantically, trying to ease their shock.

But soon the uproar faded.A new scene appeared.

Golden sunlight coated the surface of the calm sea as the ship Tianliang sailed on.

In the year 2001, the internet hovered between 2G and 3G.Computers were still bulky white boxes.Phones were used mainly for calls.

People of that era were warm and sociable.They made friends easily during their travels.

So on the Tianliang, Su Yun met many new companions.

There was Miss Zuo Hui, who dreamed of moving to the big city and opening a flower shop.

There was Xiangliang, a newlywed who complained about his wife while actually showing off.

There was also a friendly uncle who told Su Yun:

"Su Yun, you're much better than my useless son!"

Su Yun asked curiously,"Uncle Ashihara, is your son very naughty?"

"Hahaha, not naughty—just rebellious! Although Liang has been better recently. He even joined the school swimming team, and the coach thinks highly of him!"

The three worlds erupted again.

This uncle—was the father of Ashihara Ryo, the future G3-X user.

Then, feeling the cabin grow stuffy, Su Yun went back to the deck—and met a man in a spotless white shirt, exuding extraordinary confidence.

One glance was enough to see he was a social elite.

His name was Kino Kaoru.A prodigy surgeon.

Audiences were stunned.

One of the Four Riders…had boarded the Tianliang too.

When Su Yun asked Kino Kaoru to examine the ancient letter, the prodigy surgeon took it seriously, comparing each character with the knowledge in his mind.

Sunlight bathed the ship.Passengers in every corner laughed and talked brightly.

They all had dreams they were chasing.Families and lovers they cherished.Hopes for a better future.

At that moment, the ship Tianliang seemed to be sailing toward a radiant destiny.

The scene looked beautiful—yet to the three worlds, it felt impossibly cruel.

Half a year later, only a handful of Tianliang's passengers would survive the angel massacres.Even their families would be killed.

What happened to the Tianliang?Why wasn't Su Yun on board when Hojo Toru boarded the empty ship?Why did Su Yun lose his memories and wash ashore instead?

The air grew heavy.Countless viewers stared at the screen, desperate for answers.

On the deck of the Tianliang, Kino Kaoru studied the letter for two minutes.

Finally, he sighed.

"…Sorry. I don't know these characters."

Su Yun looked disappointed, but still smiled.

"It's fine."

But when Kino Kaoru handed the letter back—

Something strange happened.

The screen cut to the stairwell between the upper and lower decks.

A female passenger clung to her companion, crying in terror.She had screamed moments earlier.

Passengers crowded around.

Then a shocking sight came into view.

A dead man lay there.

A handsome figure in a white robe, with golden hair.

Kino Kaoru squeezed through the crowd and knelt to examine him.

After a brief check, he whispered:

"He's dead."

The woman who found him burst into louder sobs.

The captain rushed over with the passenger list.

After checking it, his expression turned grim.

"How strange…There is no such person on the passenger list."

A passenger shouted:

"He must have snuck aboard—and got caught in a murder!"

Everyone's faces changed.

A death on the Tianliang.Which meant—A murderer was among them.

The joyful atmosphere shattered instantly.Passengers trembled in fear.

The three worlds went silent.

Many rubbed their eyes.Was this truly happening?

A corpse…On the Tianliang.

And that man in the white robe and golden hair—he looked exactly like…

Baishen Wuzhi.

No—there was no mistake.

The corpse that appeared on the ship was…

White God—Promith
