The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"Uh...uh...yawn!"

Mikael stood up from the bed in a daze, and emptied out all the "inventory" for the night. The sound of the toilet flushing seemed to come from a very far away place, through the thick fog, Only then did it reach Mikael's ears vaguely.

The light outside the window was gray, and without even opening his eyes, Mikael could feel the aura of early morning. Thanks to the underground city's light sensing system, it could simulate the external light perception corresponding to the time.

Oh yes, Fire Chaser's underground city plan is finally completed. As May said, after she submitted that batch of "evidence" to the coalition government, the latter obviously experienced a period of turmoil. Even if this turmoil has calmed down, it is no longer possible for them to take action against the almost monolithic Fire Chaser Moth. On the contrary, in order to fight against Honkai, they have to "willingly" spend money.

So, after Mei obtained the corresponding funds, he directly created a five-hundred-meter-deep space in the entire New Moth City and under the Fire Chaser Headquarters. However, this step did not require much money, because Mikael used Space power can be dug out in an instant.

Then, the entire ground area was moved underground, and thirty-three layers of special alloy armor plates were installed on the top, making it impregnable.

But Mikael had no intention of sighing about this. His sleepiness faded away like a tide and quickly came back again. The division of time in his mind gradually became a little hazy - what day is today...

One, two, three, four, five...

Mikael counted on his fingers and wrinkled his nose.

"Is it your day off? Ha-ha! Then sleep a little longer."

Michael held on to the wall and found his way back to the bed, then fell over.

When his consciousness perceived the flow of time for about five seconds——

When he spent a whole year in a dream——

When the second hand of the old-fashioned wall clock on the wall rotated twice -

Mikael, who had mastered the time inequality, finally opened his eyes again. After experiencing the sleepiness, he finally woke up.

He opened the window. The air in March was still a bit cold, with a hint of moisture and earthy smell that can only be found in the ground. Two yellow birds flew over and landed on the branches of the small tree under his window. Unfortunately, they were not as golden as they once were. The pair in the courtyard.

There are tender green shoots at the feet of the yellow birds. They are using dead branches and willow sticks from unknown places to weave a small nest, a small nest that belongs to themselves and their offspring.

Mikael stared blankly for a long time, then raised his gaze slightly and cast his gaze towards the blue lake farther away.

Even underground, there is still a gentle wind coming from afar, ruffling the lake water and making the surrounding willows fly.

Three or two clumps of catkins were also blown up by the wind, easily spanning a distance of thousands of meters, and spinning in front of Mikael's window.

Moving your gaze forward, you can see an emerald-green and transparent pyramid standing under the blue "sky" - the headquarters of the Fire Chaser finally no longer needs to be thick after sinking into the ground. The soil layer serves as an external shelter.

On the contrary, when the contractor Wei Wei received a large amount of capital injection, she spent a lot of money to get the same green crystal of Luluye from Mu Dalu and covered the entire base.

Even Mei and Mikael did not know about this matter in advance, so when these materials were placed in front of him, he thought that the logistics procurement department of the coalition government had made a mistake, allowing the Fire Chaser to take a big advantage... …

Moreover, Velvet was really good at doing things. She only paid one-third of the amount to frustrate Mikael on the budget. After one-third of the construction project was completed and all the materials were used up, Mikael Only then did you know how much money was invested in these "green broken stones"!

Mikael looked up at the blue sky. This was the consequence of this incident, although it could not be seen with the naked eye. In the end, only thirty-three of the originally planned eighty-eight layers of armor plates were laid due to insufficient budget. layer.

But the problem is not big. In front of future Herrschers, there is really not much difference between the thirty-third floor and the eighty-eighth floor.

“Crack, click, click—” The roar of chains and gears came from overhead, sometimes mixed with the sound of the hydraulic power unit pulling. It was the almost unprotected “chain-type” elevator that was transporting outside people and materials into the underground city. .

However, the name "chain type" is not due to its transmission method, but to its shape - a chain hanging from the sky at a 45-degree angle.

Oh, no, according to what those soldiers called it, the full name should be: "Vilvi's Chain."

notorious.

Mikael shook his head. His brain seemed not to be firmly fixed in his skull, and there was a vague sense of swaying, which was very uncomfortable.

He closed the bed, washed briefly, went out and turned right skillfully, came to the door of Ellie's room, and knocked lightly.

It's just after eight o'clock! At this time, Ai Li must not have gotten up yet!

He knocked on the door confidently, but after waiting for half a minute, there was no movement.

"Um?"

Logically speaking, what should follow should be a few half-awake murmurs, and then a few "Gulu" sounds. This is when she rolls around on the bed with the quilt between her legs, trying to wake herself up.

Sometimes there would be a short scream, followed by a "bang", which even shook the floor under Mikael's feet. Needless to say, he accidentally rolled to the ground...

But all of this only stayed in his memory. In the real world, nothing seemed to happen.

"Sorry, Ellie."

Confessing his guilt in his heart, Mikael, with a hint of unexplainable emotions, allowed the power of space to flow like water, and slipped in along the crack of the door little by little. Although he did not actually see it with his own eyes, the world inside was in Mikael's mind. Perception is even more nuanced than seeing.

"A cabinet of all kinds of maid outfits... Hey, why are there so many different sizes? No, this can't be for Mebius..."

"Throwing around... uh... this..."

Mikael touched his slightly hot cheek. He originally wanted to use the power of space to help her sort out the underwear scattered everywhere, but then he thought about it. When Ellie comes back tonight, he will find that these things have been tampered with...

Will you beat him to death?

He will definitely be beaten to death!

Okay, sure, the whole room is empty, even the bed that has been lifted has no warmth at all.

"Hiss...really leaving? She actually got up earlier than me? She didn't even call me!"

Mikael spread his hands towards the door sign and shrugged, as if the owner of the door could see this.

wrong!

Mikael walked around the door twice and scratched his head. Although he knew that Ellie must have something urgent to do before leaving without saying a word, it might also be because she knew that today was a day off and guessed that she would He was snoozing, so he deliberately didn't wake him up.

However, the first thing he saw when he got up was not Ai Li, and he felt somewhat disappointed.

I feel like my luck has been bad for the whole day...

"Forget it, let's go to the base."

Stepping out of the space rift and arriving at the Anti-Entropy training base, Mikael briefly looked inside, but Ellie was not there.

Although it is a rest day, in the past, everyone did not slack off much, just slept in more.

But now, not to mention Ai Li, even Sakura is not here.

Only the sleepy-eyed Paduo and Ling were still following Hua in punching for the first time today.

Mikael shrugged and was about to go see what was going on with Mebius, but Hua had already noticed him first and walked towards him.

"Huh? It's rare that you are willing to put down an unfinished set of punches. Is it because you are about to be transferred?"

According to the original idea, those who did not undergo the fusion warrior surgery in Anti-Entropy, such as Hua, Pado and Su, should be transferred to other positions, but in fact it just depends on personal choice. If you really don’t want to go, that’s Mikael. A matter of words.

For example, Pado, Mikael directly and forcefully left her in Anti-Entropy. Su himself chose to join Spacy's experimental team because he met an acquaintance there, the former Chief Fal.

As for Hua...she is a very principled person. Mikael didn't want to interfere with her choice. He thought she was worried about it.

He habitually helped her straighten her bangs, which were wet with sweat and stuck to her forehead. However, he looked past her and glanced at Pado, who was sneaking along the wall to the back door, and he looked hesitant, wondering whether to To report Padu's bell for trying to escape...

Hua shook her head slightly, the amplitude was so small that it was almost undetectable. It even took Mikael a long time to think about it before he could tell that she had indeed shaken her head.

He was stunned, and his fingers naturally picked through the pigtails between his temples, and then sighed, "Actually, it's okay if you don't want to be transferred. The reason why I suppressed not to perform super-transformation surgery on you is, on the one hand, because You are still young, but on the other hand, you want to find a way that suits you better..."

"Mikael, you don't have to hide it from me anymore..."

Hua's body has gradually grown longer, and the top of his head has reached the height of Mikael's chin. He no longer needs to raise his head so high.

"I asked Dr. Mebius. According to the model calculations given by Dr. Mei, Garuda is the only Honkai Beast that I can possibly fuse successfully..."

"!"

Mikael was so excited that he quickly grabbed Hua's right arm and pulled her sleeve up. Sure enough, there were traces of three pinholes on it.

He grabbed his left arm again and did the same thing.

"you……"

"sorry."

Hua said softly.

"Garuda's factor is very strange. Its operation success rate is very high, relatively high, but the recipient does not seem to show much extraordinary ability. The level of improvement... is probably equivalent to that of an ordinary girl. Become as powerful as Himihu?"

Mikael would never have thought that the girl Mebius was referring to in this conclusion would actually be Hua...

This snake!

"does it have any side effects?"

Hua shook his head.

But Mikael knew that it was because she had only had the surgery for a short time and had not yet felt the heavy side effects...

"Anyway, since you have undergone the fusion warrior surgery, you no longer need to be assigned to the ordinary army."

Mikael's tone left no room for discussion.

"Oh, alright."

Hua seemed dull, but Mikael clearly raised the corners of his lips when he saw her turning around.

"That's right, Hua."

Mikael suddenly stopped her.

She turned around suddenly and saw Mikael's expression of hesitation.

She suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Are you going to ask where Ellie went?"

"Uh...uh, yes."

Hua glanced at Mikael suspiciously, with a somewhat unbelievable meaning in his eyes:

"Mikael, do you really not know what day it is?"
