"…What?"

"You see, I knew it was going to be like this. As far as the clues I can trace back, that's where... that's where Qianjie first appeared in the world - way before you met him. Much more.”

"...You're irritating him, Doctor."

"Oh, don't worry. He told me this himself. If you want to get something from me, you have to pay a price, right? That's it. Okay, don't waste any more time and move on."

The emergency lights were turned on, and the pale light gradually reflected everything around them.

Somehow, in the darkness, this thin light seemed to be crumbling, as if it was afraid of something and was swallowing itself up.

"Very good, very good...let me see what is hidden in this place that Dr. Mei has tried so hard to erase from the map."

However, what she saw was nothing but ruins that seemed to have been ravaged by fire.

On the blackened walls, the densely packed strange totems can still see some of their former appearance - they bared their teeth and claws, as if they were about to break out of the wall.

In the center of the hall, there is an even weirder giant pillar that looks like a totem. The chains have long been broken, some are scattered, and some are still wrapped around them like dead vines.

"Dr. Mebius, did you make a mistake?"

"This... is not so much someone's hometown, but more like..."

"Some kind of mysterious sacrificial site."

In the end, Xiao Chen didn't find any useful information, so the matter about Thousand Tribulations almost ended there.

Xiao Chen originally thought that contacting Qianjie in this way would save him from asking about Qianjie in the main world, but now that he thinks about it, it is still a little difficult.

At present, all Qianjie wants to do is fight, a never-ending battle... It is really difficult to achieve this goal in a peaceful world.

Fighting... Is it possible to train Qianjie to become a boxer?

Or a wrestler?

The Bull Warrior will never take off his mask?

Xiao Chen also knew a lot about Ying.

"Yes...the dreams are getting longer and more frequent...sometimes I can't even tell the difference between dreams and reality. Dr. Mebius, I know that surgery changed me forever, but...it changed What exactly is it?"

"Hey, don't worry, those are normal post-operative reactions, there's no need to be so nervous."

"But, Sakura...can you tell me in detail what you dreamed about?"

The girl with snake eyes seemed a little unaccustomed to her body. She tried her best to straighten her waist and reached out to reach for the experimental equipment high up - but she was still a few dozen centimeters away. She couldn't reach it.

"I dreamed... that wings grew out of my back, and the wings were covered with brightly colored feathers, sometimes red, sometimes yellow. I soared in the sky with those wings, as if I would never fall... But in an instant, my legs were stuck in the swamp, and everything around me became as sticky as a swamp...even the light. I couldn't leave the swamp...Soon, I I felt hungry. I fished something out of the swamp and ate it mindlessly...and when I noticed...I realized that it was actually the person closest to me."

“…”

"Dr. Mebius, what on earth is going on? Huh? Oh, um... it's a beautiful scene."

She wasn't actually listening.

All her attention was focused on the test tube at the top - a large number of bubbles had been produced in it. If she didn't take it out quickly, the experiment would probably fail.

"Hey, this is really troublesome... Sakura, can you come and help me?"

“…”

Sakura sighed, walked forward, put her hands around the girl's waist, and lifted her high.

"Ah, I finally got it...well, it's okay, it looks like it can still be used."

"Okay, Sakura, put me down."

“…”

"Sakura? Did you hear that? Put me down quickly."

"…Sorry, Doctor. I got distracted again."

Sakura put the girl back on the chair. She seemed to be waiting for an answer.

"I've already said it, Sakura. It's just a normal postoperative reaction. The fact that you can still wake up on your own and stand here chatting with me... means there's nothing wrong with you. Okay, don't worry, I know. What do you care about? But...it should be considered lucky for you that it didn't turn out like me or Kevin."

"...Though that's hardly a consolation at all."

"Excuse me, Dr. Mebius. Goodbye."

Sakura lowered her head and slowly walked towards the door of the laboratory.

But just when she was about to leave, she stopped -

"I know that those dreams all belong to "it"'s will...but I won't become "it" or a monster because of this...right? "

"It depends on what you think, Sakura. In my eyes, you will always be "human". "

"But in the eyes of many people... we are already "monsters". "

“…”

She didn't answer or ask any more questions.

She left. The footsteps gradually faded away.

"Oh, I was interrupted for a while. I didn't keep you waiting, did I?"

The girl with snake eyes held the edge of the experimental table, walked towards the huge locker in the corner, and then casually opened the door. The dazzling light made the people huddled inside unconsciously close their eyes.

Her sweat-soaked hair was scattered on her forehead and neck... She was like a frightened little animal, trembling and huddled in the corner.

"Haha... don't be so scared... it will be over soon."

Xiao Chen thought of Mebius again...

What kind of demands will she make?

464 Extra·Conversation

While entering Ying Jie's memory, Xiao Chen suddenly thought that there was another person who was not Ying Jie and had also lived for 50,000 years.

One by one gray snake.

Mebius' experimental subject, artificial life.

Xiao Chen wanted to ask about a different perspective this time than humans.

"How many times has this happened?"

Sakura has always strictly followed the training she had received. It has become a subconscious habit for her to perform blood revitalization before taking the knife.

However, the biting wind lingering in the cold **** ice sky caused the blood stains to solidify into solid ice, making her feel a little irritated - not only because they would hinder her sheathing the sword, but also because they would wake her up. Some unpleasant memories.

Generally speaking, the sword Han Jing Bing Tian would not be used by her to fight against humans. But faced with the existence in front of her that looked like a human but could not be killed no matter how hard she tried, Sakura would never take it lightly.

"You tried to obliterate me six times in total. You destroyed my organization and took my life eleven times in total."

"I'm sorry to trouble you this time. As usual."

Sakura ignored the man's words and began to carefully clean the ice on the blade.

"I'm still on a mission and my time is limited."

"If you are like last time and just want to talk to me... try to be quick."

"I'm not in the mood to kill you today. Besides, even if I kill you, you won't actually die... This is just a waste of time."

"No, please kill me again. The journey to get here is too long."

"This body is nothing to regret. Returning to J in this way is more efficient for me."

“…”

"Okay, I don't care... But you'd better not establish any more random organizations like this in the future. The religious cult that believes in machinery... the mutual aid association that regards Honkai as baptism... the underworld that smuggles Honkai energy weapons Groups...these organizations you established...each one is a big trouble, and some of them are even completely opposed to human beings. If you really value efficiency...you should also understand that time has come to me. It's equally precious. And I no longer want to carry out such a mission that will be an enemy of mankind. "

"I'm sorry, Miss Sakura. It was never my intention to cause you any trouble. It's just...the freedom I have at this moment is a gift from the creator. I must let it have the value of existence. What I have built Those organizations are not meaningless - they originate from the desire of human beings themselves, and it is also an experiment of mine. For most human beings, absolute freedom is just a heavy burden. Even if they haven't realized it yet...but in fact, they do prefer to let others make choices for them. Another creature besides me - Klein, she will choose to stay with Dr. Mebius The reason is the same. Sorry, I am not interested in those things in your laboratory. If there is nothing else, I will continue on my way. "

Finally, she took the Hell Ice Sky back into its sheath.

"Hurrying? No...there's no need for that."

"Miss Sakura, aren't you...already dead?"

Buried in the yellow sand, the blazing hot wind tore apart all the memories together with Sakura's figure.

"...Sorry, that's my problem. This projection technology...is more realistic than I expected."

On the wasteland, more than fifty gray snakes were standing there holding black umbrellas. They looked the same only in appearance.

"It's a pity, Miss Sakura, that you can't witness this moment with your own eyes. My long study tour has ended. The only thing left to do is to say goodbye to you at this moment. I am doing this between myself and many human beings An experiment was conducted. The results proved that the collective consciousness of equals is destined to be a dead end. Human beings will always need extraordinary will to make the most difficult decisions for them. Yes, human beings will make the most difficult decisions for them. Need a r leader j.”

All the gray snakes put away their umbrellas at the same moment and looked into the distance.

Two mourners were standing there - two of the twelve remaining saviors of mankind, Kevin and Alicia, who bear the name of hero.

Like all members of the Fire Chaser except Mebius, although they knew about the existence of Gray Snake, they had never seen him with their own eyes...or rather, they j.

They neatly bowed deeply to the tomb in the distance - for a fallen hero, for a warrior who had killed them countless times...

For a former friend J.

After seeing this scene, Xiao Chen felt that there was no need to ask anymore.

In addition, he also asked many people related to Ying Jie.

"Yes, those members of Poison Chrysalis...the people who killed them were indeed Qianjie. But things were not what you imagined. At that time, since the number of fusion warriors was enough to form an R army...that Poison The only thing left in the chrysalis is that the meaning of its existence is untenable. Disbandment...can be considered a normal thing."

“…”

"Erwin, your tone is a little strange today."

"Why…"

"Cang Xuan...you don't want to ask me why? Take a good look...look around you."

The lights spread out little by little. The two of them sat on the red sofa, watching the place full of memories gradually light up. But the result was disappointing - it was just an ordinary lounge, nothing more.

Of course, the photos hanging on the walls will also feel familiar to them and remind them of the time they spent here in the past. For some, they may even be the only hope left in this sickening apocalypse.

But now, they have all lost their color and become meaningless dead objects.

"Have you remembered, Cang Xuan? In the past... there would be many people here every night."

"Everyone is just here drinking, playing cards, chatting... and doing nothing else."

"It was here that I became the most well-informed person in the Fire Chasing Moth."

"But this battle with the Eleventh Herrscher...how many of them can come back alive?"

“…”

"There won't be any more rumors, Cang Xuan."

"There are fewer and fewer things worth talking about. The people who would come to you for gossip...are gone."

"So... don't ask me about those things that happened in the past.

"No, this is important, Erwin."

"How many people who participated in this battle will survive...maybe it depends on what you say today."

"Tell me, Erwin. Those who stayed after the Chrysalis disbanded...are they worthy of being trusted?"

"The fratricidal war that Qianjie participated in...you were there at the time. You saw it, right, Erwin?"

"Don't deny it, I have seen the transcript you left after that incident. That incident... was the real reason that caused the Poison Chrysalis to be disbanded, right?"

“…”

"No, Cang Xuan. That incident... indeed happened after the organization ordered the disbandment of Poison Chrysalis."

"Qianjie was not involved at all... at least not as a killer. To him, it was probably more like a suppression. And the subsequent trial... was actually just a show."

"You should also know that almost every member of Poison Chrysalis has been imprisoned as a serious criminal. Although the tasks they are responsible for performing are terrible, it also represents a kind of privilege, allowing them to escape all crime and punishment."

"And after the order to disband is given...it's no surprise that the fear of returning to prison will make these desperadoes do anything."
