Phantasmal Genesis

“Explain yourself, what’s going on?”

This time, Meng Ke started to read his mind as his real body appeared in front of Luo Chao.

He had seen Luo Chao laying on the ground just as he entered, and that was how he was sure that Luo Chao wasn’t involved in whatever had just happened.

At least it wasn’t a ploy to escape.

As he made his way here, Meng Ke already had a few scenarios in his mind, one of which was that Luo Chao would most likely run away.

Seeing as he was still here, this at least proved that Yasuo was sharing a consciousness with him, but that they had different memories and that what had happened earlier was unrelated to him.

But this was just a guess, and despite the high probability, Meng Ke still decided to test Luo Chao.

Which was why this was happening.

Luo Chao woke up with a sharp pain in his head and his temples were throbbing as if his brain were about to split open at any moment.

And before he could even raise his head, he heard a calm male voice.

There was a man wearing a white button-up and a blue suit seated on his desk chair, looking at him with a faint smile.

It was hard to describe the unique aura of this man, no matter how he looked at him, this man seemed like a regular city teen that was young and fashionable, filled with youthful energy, but he also seemed like a hidden master at the peak, free and unrestrained.

But no matter who he was, he didn’t seem like an ordinary person.

“Who are you?”

Luo Chao tried to think, he didn’t recognise this man, and he was puzzled.

What he had seen earlier was Meng Ke’s phantasy, and this time he had appeared himself, it wasn’t a wonder that he couldn’t recognise him.

“I am your friend, you shouldn’t have forgotten me.” Meng Ke smiled, and at the same time, he started sending signals to his subconscious.

Luo Chao started reminiscing, and the man in front of him now had a familiar feeling to him, it was as if he was a friend he hadn’t seen in years, how could he forget?

Unable to find the answer within his memories, Luo Chao grabbed his hair in frustration.

“Forget it if you can’t remember, I don’t mind.” Meng Ke spoke casually.

“No! It’s just at the tip of my tongue.” Luo CHao cut him off, his face wrinkled in frustration.

He could picture a blurry face and figure in his memories, and he just needed a bit more to recall his identity.

But he just couldn’t remember.

“Haha.” Meng Ke sat there, smiling at him.

It was easy to fool the human memory, and even ordinary humans could guide memories to create something that they truly believed they had gone through despite the fact that they had never experienced it.

“I remember! Are you Li Ping?” Luo Chao suddenly pointed at Meng Ke in joy.

Li Ping was his middle school friend, and Meng Ke who was looking into his mind went with it, “You remember? I had thought you’d forget your middle school friend just like this.”

The combination of mindreading and guidance quickly led Luo Chao to believe that Meng Ke was his good friend whom he hadn’t seen for years, the kind that he could trust and rely on.

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Meng Ke asked, “Do you know Yasuo?”

That swordsman had disappeared the moment Meng Ke had woken up Luo Chao.

But Meng Ke remembered his name, and he had a feeling that Luo Chao would too, so he decided to investigate from here.

“Yasuo?” Luo Chao thought, “Isn’t that a game character? Wind Swordsman, Yasuo.”

Meng Ke raised his brow and asked with interest, “What game?”

The moment Luo Chao spoke, Xuan Nv had already checked through her database. There wasn’t a game called League of Legends, and there wasn’t such a character named Yasuo in any other games.

“League of Legends!” Luo Chao looked at Meng Ke weirdly.

“It can’t be that you’ve never played League of Legends!?”

Luo Chao’s expression was filled with shock, it was as if he was looking at a caveman.

“But I thought you loved playing League of Legends last time?”

This was strange, Meng Ke felt that it was strange, and he asked with a serious expression, “When was this game released? Is it very popular?”

“You really forgot?!” Luo Chao thought he was telling a terrible joke.

“League of Legends have been popular for 8 whole years! It is the most popular game in the past decade, there isn’t anything else better than it!”

“You forgot how we used to play together through the night last time!?”

Luo Chao had an incredulous expression on his face.

“Xuan Nv, in your database, do the records of this game really not exist?” Meng Ke asked Xuan Nv yet again, unsure of himself.

It was possible for him to forget, but it was impossible for such a low-level mistake to occur in Xuan Nv’s database.

“God, it truly does not exist in the database, and there isn’t any game that became popular for 8 years after being released for 10 years, there is no records to prove what he is saying.” Xuan Nv spoke.

Luo Chao was lying?

Meng Ke looked at Luo Chao suspiciously as he used his phantasies to project his thoughts. Countless images appeared in the air, just like how he had projected the pets in the Earth Plan.

Season 1 to Season 2, Fadai’s hacking……xPeke’s Kassadin Backdoor……ROX Tigers PraY’s iconic arrow……IG winning the championships……(Sorry, my brain couldn’t compute/translate half of the MOBA strategy terms, so I sprinkled in some internationally famous(?) LOL stuff in.)

Countless screens, countless tournaments, countless crowds screaming, countless days and nights……

This was an internationally popular game, and just looking at the screen, Meng Ke could feel the mad joy those people had felt when they won the championships.

But, Xuan nv had searched the web for the third time again, and she still couldn’t find any information on League of Legends.

It did not exist.

“God, there are two possibilities. One, his memories were manufactured, two, this information had been erased.”

Meng Ke knew it was fine if his memory got uploaded, but if there was someone who could completely erase the information of this thing’s existence……

Then that would be terrifying.

And at this moment, Luo Chao had already switched on his computer and was looking strangely at Meng Ke as he started a game with an ‘L’ icon.

“Isn’t this League of Legends? You really forgot?” Luo Chao looked at him strangely.

Meng Ke watched as Luo Chao skillfully logged into his account, chose an area and played a round.

“You……really forgot?” Luo Chao finished his game and turned to look at him with disbelief.

There wasn’t any doubt that this game was well made, and on the current internet, the only equivalent was DOTA, a game never reached the level of international popularity that was shown in Luo Chao’s memories.

Suddenly, Meng Ke thought of something.

He logged out of Luo Chao’s account and returned to the login page.

According to Luo Chao’s memory, this game was used with a QQ account, and Meng Ke had an account on QQ that he had used for the past decade. (QQ is a messaging app in China.)

If someone had truly erased the information regarding this game, and if only Luo Chao, someone who was abnormal, had a copy of this game.

Meng Ke wanted to try, and he quickly typed in his account password before selecting the login button.
