"what's your name."
"Um...An...Fu...Faust." Faust frowned and spoke slowly.
"who are you."
"I am a machine... No, I am the director of the R&D department of Link Company." Faust touched his forehead and spoke slowly.
"Not yet." Zhao Ye shook his head. "By the way, not only is it not true, but I will be demoted soon."
"Huh?" Faust still hadn't come back to his senses.
"Okay, have some coffee." Zhao Ye handed over the coffee cup in his hand.
Faust took the coffee in a daze, stared at the ripples of the coffee, was stunned for a moment, and said subconsciously: "It feels familiar."
Zhaoye shrugged.
Zhaoye learned his coffee skills from A, and A learned his coffee skills from someone in the Lobelia Company - naturally, Angela would have had that in her memory.
Faust drank coffee to calm himself down.
On the one hand, the anomalies of the Lobotomy Corporation have a "mental pollution" effect similar to that of the "Cthulhu creatures". Even if they are just fragments of memory separated by a window, they are still severe pollution to Faust, who has no protection at all. Therefore, her mental state is now very weak.
On the other hand, Angela's hundreds of years of memory are also a huge "turbulence" for her as a human being. It takes time to sort out where she is and who she is.
Vivian prepared something else.
She didn't feel anything about Faust's sudden coma.
Although the linked companies are relatively peaceful, there will always be some human casualties, which is inevitable for urban companies.
On the contrary, she felt that it was a good thing for Faust to fall into a coma at this time - at least in this way, Zhao Ye could take some time to rest more.
Supported by this idea, Vivian did not urge Faust. It was not until an hour later that Faust covered his head and sorted out his thoughts.
"President, thank you very much for saving me." Faust shook his head and recalled the things in the memory world.
"It seems that you are still affected by Angela's memory, and your speech logic has not recovered yet..." Zhaoye shrugged and said, "I will arrange two days of sick leave for you. You should take good care of yourself."

Shi De rubbed his head.
She is remembering.
Memories - why did she end up in this situation.

Just like Faust would fill his home in J's Nest with formulas, she had a crazy thirst for knowledge.
The reason why she joined J Company was that she hoped to learn some secret knowledge that could not be learned from the outside world in J Company, a company that is known to have the most secrets in the world.
The reason why she left J Company was because she couldn't accept Justina and she couldn't access more knowledge.
With her arrogant way of doing things, she was actually never satisfied.
She wanted to learn more, learn more useful knowledge. She didn't know what she could do with this knowledge, but she wanted to learn anyway.
She joined the Link Company and learned a lot of secret knowledge there. After many efforts, she even successfully mastered the method of making people resonate with [Synchronous Monsters] in a simple way. She was recognized by Zhao Ye and finally could touch the company's top secret - perpetual motion machine.
The beauty of the perpetual motion machine was something she could never forget.
The ever-revolving rainbow light still lingers in her heart until now.
She longed to explore more secrets of the perpetual motion machine, and hoped to discover more things, gain a higher status, and communicate and learn on an equal footing with Zhao Ye, the true genius whom she admired.
However - two huge mountains suddenly appeared in front of her.
There is a high mountain named Honglu, who can easily resonate with the perpetual motion machine, a person who can easily do things that she can never do.
A mountain named Meursault, a man who, although also unable to resonate with the perpetual motion machine, has a dueling ability far superior to her and is respected by everyone in the Link Company.
In comparison, what does she have?
Knowledge, and the craze for knowledge.
What's left?
An annoying personality and a beautiful face?
This kind of thing is meaningless in the link company.
No one cares what other people look like. As long as your dueling skills are good enough, you can get everyone's recognition no matter how ugly you look.
No one will like her bad character. The core idea of Link Company is to connect each other and create happiness.
Although I got Zhao Ye's approval, what's the use?
Who in the linked company has not been recognized by Zhao Ye?
In this huge company, she is unique but also lonely. She is excellent, but not the outstanding talent that everyone respects.
Her loneliness, her pursuit of knowledge, and her reverence for the night inexplicably created a connection between her and cards.
At that moment, she instinctively copied Angela's memory into her mind, as if possessed.
She was just a little bit away from losing herself and becoming a complete zombie.
but--
Zhaoye saved her.
Zhao Ye, who was powerful and omnipotent and paid attention to the mental state of all employees, prepared and protected her at the first opportunity.
And this finally allowed Faust to find "hope" in Angela's memory.
These hundreds of years of torture were similar to her own pain, which was why she was slightly distorted and resonated with the card.
Furthermore, in endless pain, after personally experiencing hundreds of years of painful memories, Faust finally thought of what she wanted to do.
Just like she said -
Happiness is not important to her. What she wants is to immerse herself in the torrent of time and the progress of events, to find the highest and deepest things, and to experience pain, sorrow and... happiness with her spirit.
Yes!
What she really pursues is happiness!
She shuddered and finally came to her senses. Although she was exhausted, she still burst out with amazing strength, ran to the experimental table, and excitedly injected materials and materials into a card.
She put her knowledge into it.
Under Vivian's surprised gaze, Faust only took a few minutes to create a card.
This was an ordinary blank card. After Faust made the card, she gently placed it against her forehead. Gradually, some kind of power began to flow slowly around her.
The phantom of the blood demon Mephisto appeared behind her again, and the demonic power began to spread.
Tick-tick-tick-tick-tick--
There was a startling sound of a needle turning in her body.
After a while.
A card with a front that was different from the other cards, and even looked a little "aged," a rather rustic card, became material in her hands.
Scarmiglione, the evil spirit from the other side.
It was a lanky evil creature with long claws and bat wings on its back.
The ghost, its body is pitch black and its lower body is red, like a demon from hell.
Success - succeeded!
This time, he didn't inject his own spirit, but created the card by relying on resonance!
I did the same thing as Honglu!
She jumped up with joy.
"The Other Shore series... Why are all your cards demons?" Zhao Ye glanced at Faust.
"Ah——" Faust was startled. He quickly put away the card and put it close to his body. He looked at Zhao Ye nervously, his face turning very red.
She did something that was out of her usual behavior, and now she is indeed a little shy.
Zhaoye shrugged.
If it were before, Zhaoye would not be able to tolerate Faust to some extent.
Although Faust's talent is worthy of recognition, her performance in duels is really not good enough.
But in the spiritual world, after hearing some of Faust's remarks, noticing Faust's identification with the Link Company, and looking at the application of the Blood Demon and the Time Magician, Zhao Ye could tell that this cold lady, although usually low-key, actually quite liked dueling monsters.
It's just that her personality is hard to believe.
"Pursuing happiness? Although it is slightly different from the company, I don't care about this kind of thing." Zhao Ye said casually, "Seek common ground while reserving differences. I allow employees in the company to have other ideas as long as we have the same goal."
"Well, Faust understands." Faust finally sorted out his situation.
"Do you need to cleanse your memory? Angela's memory contains a lot of pain and torture."
"No - Faust will not let anyone reduce my memory again!" Although she was extremely tired, this incident was like a reverse scale to her, and she would never allow this to happen again.
Even if she had to endure the pain and sadness that flashed through her mind from time to time, she would not clear her memory.
"Well, then, Faust, you rashly conducted dangerous experiments without applying for permission, and the company will demote you."
Faust felt like he was shot in the forehead and was in so much pain that he woke up instantly.
It hurts so much—
I finally became a second-level employee ahhhhh——
At this moment, Angela's memories seemed less painful than her.
"Besides—Vivian?"
"Yes." Weiwei immediately took out a notebook from somewhere, flipped through fifty or sixty pages, and found what she was looking for, "According to the punishment regulations discussed by various departments of the company.
Faust, the company is about to make a [Satisfaction Decision] on you. You must find and complete seventeen randomly generated [Endgames] within the company within the next five days, and also complete three endgames designed by the president himself. Please be prepared. "
"...Faust understands."
In Link Company, duels can solve most problems, and among them, some of the most dangerous punishments, which may even involve the life of the duelist, also exist.
However, Zhaoye felt that there was no need to be as cruel as other companies, so as long as he could complete the designated random duel challenge before the end of the "Satisfaction Ruling", he would not have to accept the company's most terrible punishment.
But, to be honest... Faust would rather participate in this kind of duel endgame challenge, or [Crisis Duel], than be demoted.
"Three random endgames, and one endgame I specially designed." After listening to Vivian's words, Zhao Ye made some changes.
"Huh? President?" Vivian looked at Zhao Ye in surprise.
Although Zhaoye was always very gentle when there were no unusual circumstances, Zhaoye himself was a very rule-abiding person - especially his own rules.
Although these punishment regulations were not written by Zhao Ye, they were indeed approved by Zhao Ye! ?
Faust was also a little surprised.
Although Zhao Ye was like an angel guiding her to heaven in her vague "dream", and she respected and honored him very much, she could not accept that Zhao Ye showed mercy.
"Faust - although your behavior is very unwise, you did point out one thing for me."
"One thing?" Faust was dumbfounded for a moment.
What does it point out?
She did find a way to resonate with the cards in Angela's memory - accepting the pain, accepting the sadness and loneliness, and then looking up to heaven.
She indeed relied on this power to create her own resonance card!
But deeper still - how those memory cards came to be, Faust only had a vague feeling, not even a feeling, it was simply "there seems to be something strange about these cards", a vague cognition.
I was clearly the one who witnessed the memory, why did Zhaoye see more than me! ?
It’s worthy of being called Zhao Ye!
After she realized that Zhaoye had not shown any mercy to her, and realized that Zhaoye had thought of something deeper than herself, she suddenly became excited.
"Zhao Ye, you mean, you know how to make these cards?!" She was very excited and wanted to learn this knowledge.
But this momentum didn't last long, and Vivian said, "Faust, for the next five days, you will not have the right to enter the laboratory on the second floor. Don't worry, the endgame will not be randomly placed in the area that you are prohibited from entering."
“Oh…ah…”
It was clearly possible for him to find a way to get it, Zhao Ye was right in front of him, and he would be able to access new and unique knowledge soon, but he just couldn't touch it, which made Faust feel very anxious.
