Reincarnation: Only I Can Play The Villain

"Senior...are you serious?"

After leaving the student guidance room, Xuecai couldn't help but ask Chu Mu.

"To actually want to accept employment from the police, no matter how you say it, it's too outrageous."

"Oh? You think so."

Chu Mu lowered his head and glanced at the girl next to him.

"I thought you would approve of this kind of cooperation. After all, you are also a magician.

"Completely different...sigh."

Hearing Chu Mu's answer, Xuecai sighed helplessly.

"If it were an attack on ordinary residents, it would be fine if it was put under the police's control.

"But when it comes to religious organizations in Western European countries like Lotharingia, and the emergence of annihilation-level combat capabilities...

"This is already an international magic crime, and it should be under the jurisdiction of the Lion King Agency."

"oh.....…"

Hearing this, he said thoughtfully.

"That is to say, is it a competition for performance among peers?"

.....This is just one of the reasons. "

Although she said so, Xuecai did not deny it.

It seems that there is still some rift between the Lion King Agency and the country's magic attack agency.

"It doesn't matter, it's just me who accepts this commission anyway.

Chu Mu shrugged and didn't ask any more questions.

"Senior, this is not your business alone." 09

The girl stopped and said in a serious tone.

"I, who is performing surveillance missions, must also act with you.

"Really? Are you ready to wake up?"

A smile appeared at the corner of Chu Mu's mouth, responding to Xuecai's gaze.

"......consciousness?"

Seemingly being sedated by his gaze, Xuena swallowed involuntarily.

"Senior, are you talking about the consciousness of fighting to the death like before? I, of course I have it..."

"No, it's not a skill."

However, this is not the answer Chu Mu wants.

“I mean… the consciousness of skipping school on the first day of school.

A large number of research institutions are stationed in the northern area of ​​Genkami Island.

Research institute buildings from all over the world stand like a forest.

Not only the surface, but also the underground space is fully utilized, as intricate as an ant's nest.

On the edge of the most technological street on the island, there remains the ruins of an abandoned research institute.

The four-story building is almost rectangular in shape.

Perhaps to protect confidentiality, from the outside, the number of windows on the surface of the building is very small.

It would be perfect if it was used as a secret base for some homeless people or criminals.

"Is this where the teacher is hiding?"

Xue Cai poked her head out from behind the shrubs in the green belt and looked warily at the abandoned research institute in front of her.

"It is said that after the parent company evacuated, the institute was closed. I heard that the entire building was used to pay debts...but the equipment inside should still be intact."

Chu Mu's head also appeared above the girl, like a stack of Arhats.

Therefore, the maintenance equipment for artificial life forms should still be usable. "

"Oh... no wonder he would choose to hide in this kind of building."

Xuecai nodded slightly and couldn't help but sigh.

"I didn't expect you, senior, to make such a coherent analysis."

"Huh? What you mean is that the impression I gave you before was that of a completely mindless character?"

"It's not so much that I don't use my brain, it's more like I'm too lazy to think..."

"There is no need to waste brain cells on things that can be solved with violence.

Chu Mu gently knocked on the girl's head, and then walked out from behind the hiding bush.

"Senior, please be careful, there may be traps here."

Seeing Chu Mu walking out in a swagger, Xuecai could only follow his footsteps.

"Well, I've paid attention."

After responding casually, Chu Mu's eyes stayed on the dusty signboard of the institute.

This is a scientific research institution that studies "artificial life", or it used to be.

Artificial life forms are the general term for life forms created using biochemical technology.

They are different from "synthetic organisms".

It is a product where even the "gene" is completely designed under artificial interference.

Although the technical difficulty is very high, the freedom of design is also very powerful.

It is said that the first method of creating artificial life forms started with a certain alchemist who created the "little man in a bottle".

In order to create cheap labor, or the perfect new human being in the mind.

Such research has continued in the occult world ever since.

However, in terms of results, artificial life forms are not widely popularized in today's era.

There are two main reasons.

The first point is an ethical issue.

Creating life is a challenge for human beings to step into the realm of "God" and exercise the authority of the "Creator".

A considerable number of forces in the mysterious world are religious organizations.

Therefore, there is deep-rooted opposition to artificial life among conservative occultists.

In addition, there is also a fierce debate on whether artificially created life has "human rights", and there is no conclusion yet.

The other item...is simply a matter of manufacturing cost.

The birth process of artificial life forms is too delicate, delicate and complicated.

The more sophisticated an item is, the more likely it is to have problems and the higher the cost.

Whether as a labor force or as a soldier on the battlefield.

It's cheaper and easier to use "real humans".

Therefore, after being able to successfully create an "artificial human".

Instead, scientists in the mysterious world discovered that "human beings" themselves are the cheapest substitute.

I have to say it's a pretty funny thing.

This is why the institute they found became insolvent and eventually closed down.

Of course, the door to the institute was tightly locked with rusty iron locks.

The side door was also firmly blocked by a thick iron chain.

There seemed to be no trace of human activity at all.

"Tsk, what a small trick."

Xuecai took off the guitar case, took out Xuexialang, and waved it a few times.

"Senior, please take a few steps back."

"Can.

Chu Mu nodded slightly and waited for the girl's performance from behind.

Xuecai suddenly stabbed the side door panel with a silver spear.

In an instant, a sharp high-frequency sound pierced the silent environment.

The scene in front of them was like glass shattering, falling to the ground.

When he came back to his senses, he saw the iron chain and the rusty lock that were supposed to lock the door.

At this time, it had disappeared, leaving only the wide open door.

"This low-level illusion can only deceive ordinary patrol officers."

Xuecai, whose eyes exuded the light of blue magic power, said confidently.

But Chu Mu looked beyond the girl in front of him and looked deep into the opened corridor.

I saw it at the end of rows of tanks for cultivating artificial life forms.

A girl with blue hair was wearing a white robe like a surgical gown, revealing her figure.

"It's you!"

I saw an artificial life form named Astaruti appear in my field of vision.

Xue Cai immediately tensed up her nerves, guarding against the other party summoning the beast from last night.

However, just when the atmosphere at the scene was tense to the extreme.

Astaruti suddenly spoke quietly.

"Warning, please leave here immediately.

"...?"

Her slightly surprising statement made Xuena look confused.

The posture of holding the gun has also changed, not because he has relaxed his vigilance, but because it is more suitable for preemptive strikes.

"Why."

Chu Mu spoke on her behalf and asked the reason.

The blue-haired girl still said in a calm tone without any fluctuation.

"In a short time, this island will be silent. Please escape before then, as much as possible... escape..."

"'This island floats in the sea intertwined with dragon veins. It is a place that is illusory for a moment. If it loses its key, the only way is to perish'..."

In poetic words of unclear meaning.

Behind the girl, a tall figure wearing a solemn robe gradually walked out of the shadows.
