In the classroom, Sea Urchin Head was still loudly expounding on his hopes, and the students were still listening with their eyes wide and mouths agape.
But Li Qingming was fixated on his watch dial, motionless.
Although he had forgotten those four students who had turned into vague shadows, his memory of the entire Secret Realm was still clear. It seemed that those individuals were insignificant, lacking any presence both in the classroom and the Secret Realm.
Yet the number "4" made Li Qingming somewhat uneasy.
Counting Han Chun, this number was roughly 1/12 of the class size, almost exactly matching the time devoured on the watch dial.
Looking at it this way, the cost of each "death" might very well be the loss of 1/12 of one's memories...
To verify this, Li Qingming delved into more of his memories.
First, he looked at everyone in the classroom, he still remembered each person besides those four, including Han Chun and Sea Urchin Head, who appeared unaffected.
