I'm a villain, not a devil

In a certain hotel, a light blue light illuminated a room on the second floor.

Looking at the stable and charming blue light in front of him, Schneider almost cried.

"It was successful... it was really successful..."

He looked at the device in front of him obsessively, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

"My theory is indeed feasible..." Schneider took a sip of coffee and compared the data again.

"It's true, it's true..."

It was just a miniature version, but he succeeded.

This new set of energy extraction equipment cost him all his family fortune, but it was still very cheap!

Schneider originally wanted to sell his house to raise money, but after hearing about his idea, the young black market owner not only gave him many effective suggestions, but even sold him the things at a low price.

What a good person... I didn't expect there to be such a kind-hearted and pure person in Paradise City...

Schneider secretly sighed and even planned to repay the boss after the research was completed.

However, there is currently a problem before him.

The miniature version was neither convincing nor practical, and he had to prove the feasibility of a larger installation.

He believes he can succeed. The question is, how can he find such a huge energy source?

The energy he requires is not huge, but it must be extracted from a giant energy source to ensure the integrity and containment of the energy.

There are forces and individuals who have this energy source in Paradise City, but no one is kind enough to help him complete the experiment... After all these years of inaction, the [Academy] no longer believes in him.

Schneider, who was in extreme distress, suddenly heard footsteps and laughter coming from the corridor outside, which made him even more anxious.

Damn cheap hotel!

Even if he wanted to ignore it, the sounds from outside inevitably reached his ears.

This group of incompetent people...

"...My second sister's family sent their child to the [Academy], but, tsk, I followed him to see the world. It is indeed the [Academy]."

"It's very luxurious inside, isn't it?"

"That's not true, especially the artificial sun - it's warm even when you walk on the road. Damn old Liu, you charge 100 credits for an hour of sunbathing with the thumb-sized artificial sun, but you can sunbathe for free in the [Academy]!"

"I really envy you, brother..."

"It's bad, I'm just kidding too...Tsk, tell me, how much does that artificial sun in [College] cost?"

"You can't buy it even if you have money. I heard that the energy stored in that artificial sun can power the entire Paradise City for several months!"

"It's outrageous..."

The sounds in the corridor were far away, but Schneider was frozen in place.

Artificial Sun…

——

"Brother, it's done as you said." On the highest floor of the [Golden Ghost] headquarters, Moza quickly walked to the railing.

Most of the headquarters of [Golden Ghost] is underground, except for a building in the deepest part, which is hundreds of meters high. When you look up, you can see the iron-blue evil dome above your head.

There is no condescending pleasure here, only the slightly sour wind and the ever-present oppression above your head.

Sean squinted his eyes and looked at the distant horizon, and then said leisurely: "The evil dome that never sets... Only when the sun is the strongest every day can you vaguely see something called light... What's more interesting is, Those artificial suns that can bring light are all products from before the end."

He was silent for a moment, then suddenly burst out into a nervous laugh: "Ha... Moza, tell me, does this world have a future?"

Moza walked to the railing and stretched out a hand to feel the wind from this high place.

Then he turned his head: "I don't know if the world has a future, but if you continue to show off, brother, with your physical fitness, being blown by the strong wind from a high place close to the evil dome, there may be no future."

Sean's face darkened, and he kicked the latter's ass angrily: "You know I'm showing off and you still interrupt me? What a fool, why are your qualities so low?"

Moza bowed slightly and said, "Brother taught you well - can you go down now?"

Sean curled his lips and said lazily: "Am I the kind of person who seeks death?"

In the past, there were too many strong winds near the evil dome, and with Sean's physical condition, there was a high probability that he would get sick.

However, his physical fitness is much stronger now.

The villain reporter was unable to bring him physical growth, and the same was true for the rules-based deceitful heart.

Just looking at the ability itself, this is the case.

However, during this period of time, Sean, who had gradually figured out how to use the Heart of Deception, would use up his deceptions every day.

Likewise, he defrauded his own body.

Sean knew the limit of what he could bear now, so he found a veto within [Golden Ghost] with a low level of superpower.

A power rated E, a relatively common power power - physical amplification.

Using the opponent's physical strength and ability control as a template, Sean deceived his own body.

As it happens, Sean's villain reporter can interview and record the opponent's abilities, which allows Sean's deception to be more precise.

When reducing the intensity, Sean can deceive his body for three hours a day, and enjoy the physical bonus of a power veto during these three hours.

The slow physical enhancement can be preserved, and Sean only has to pay the price of being weak afterwards - the main symptom is Parkinson's-like shaking paralysis.

It was hard to endure, but Sean could clearly feel that his body was getting stronger - he was almost getting used to it anyway.

After hearing what Sean said, Moza, who had long been accustomed to trusting him unconditionally, said no more.

He followed Sean's example and looked into the distance, and after a moment he shook his head: "You can't even see the fart."

"Rude—" Sean lay leisurely on the railing, "Let's not talk about the future...but, something is definitely coming out."

"What?"

Sean showed an expectant smile: "It's a shelter."

Moza turned his head in surprise: "A survival shelter before the doomsday?"

"if not?"

Moza immediately grabbed Sean's arm: "Brother, where are you? I'll take someone to squat right away!"

"No hurries……"

——

A week later, all the residents of Paradise City heard the vibration from the distance, and the news quickly spread back to the city.

Two hundred kilometers to the south from Paradise City, the ground cracked, and a huge silver-white roof appeared on the earth.

Moreover, it is slowly drilling out of the ground!

After receiving the news, the four major forces in Paradise City immediately sent out their men, and then everyone quickly determined one thing.

That's a refuge!

In order to avoid disasters, the high-tech world before the end of the world has built various shelters deep underground. When the countdown ends, the shelters will slowly rise.

Inside are countless resources left by people before the end!
