The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"Heh - wow wow wow..."

Early the next morning, Mikael carried a large pile of paper accounts and reports and handed them back to Mei.

"Quick as always, Mikael."

Mei's compliment made Mikael blush unconsciously - can you not be happy... He didn't even look at it at all!

Seeing Mikael's slightly embarrassed look, Mei smiled knowingly. She suddenly dropped her pen and relaxed on the back of her chair.

Mikael couldn't figure out the reason for her actions, neither did she leave for a while, nor did she not leave at all.

Mei suddenly straightened up again, rummaged through the mountain of documents, found one of them and handed it to Mikael.

"Lezren has been complaining to me for a long time. He said that the underground environment is too humid and he can't get used to it. He wants to move back to the ground. What do you think?"

"The reason why he wants to move back to the ground is definitely not because of pretentiousness."

Mikael opened his mouth and said while flipping through the documents.

"Although I don't like him, I believe that he will never do anything without a purpose. And, I think you should also notice that he seems to be planning something since a long time ago, so that he has no idea what is going on inside the Fire Chaser Moth. There is no interest in the power struggle.”

Of course May knew this, after all, Lezren did not, and had never, tried to hide it. Of course, based on his style, it's possible - he doesn't mind others knowing this at all, and even wants everyone to know that he has a pursuit of power that transcends the world.

It's just that he's measured and right, and anyone who cares can detect that he has a plan, but what exactly is this plan?

Nobody knows.

"I have sneaked into Lezlen's office with Velvet several times, but I have not been able to find any records from his computer. And, if I remember correctly, Mei, you should have monitored his schedule, right? He basically stays at two points and one line every day, and there is no possibility of going to a third place.”

"So, what's your opinion?"

"Let him be."

Mikael raised his hand involuntarily, trying to touch his nose, but when he raised his hand halfway, as if he realized something, he put it into the corner of his mouth, bit it lightly, and quickly put it down again.

"Since he hides it so well now, let him do it. One day he will reveal his flaws."

"Snapped!"

Mei snapped her fingers, "Very good, it seems we want to go together again!"

"Well, there's nothing wrong... I'll leave first."

"Please wait a moment."

Mikael turned his head and saw Mei crossing her hands, as if she was hesitating.

After a moment, she asked: "Mikael, regarding the Quantum Sea... I know that you have taken Kevin and Hua in and out of the Quantum Sea, so... can I..."

Before Mei could finish her request, Mikael denied it.

"No... Mei, you should also have expected that Sakura had a violent rejection reaction the moment the Quantum Sea opened in New Mallorca City. And since I have no intention of taking you to the Quantum Sea, it means that In fact, your body... will not be accepted by the quantum sea."

"You are not accepted by the Quantum Sea, but what will happen if you forcefully enter the Quantum Sea?"

Mei somewhat knows what she is asking, but this is also a kind of persistence in [hope].

"You will lose your unitarity, you know what that means. Your body will be lost in the quantum sea, and your consciousness will only be retained in extremely lucky circumstances."

"Well...that's it..."

Mei Qian sighed, not seeming to be disappointed.

When she raised her head again, she was the only one left in the office.

Only then would she hide her face and look at the pile of documents on the table with a helpless expression.

"Huh...Okay! Prometheus, let's start today's work!"

Mikael glanced at the calendar under the wall clock.

Three days have passed since the Vishnu incident.

Three days... is not a long time, not a short time, but for some fatal possibilities, it is enough to happen countless times.

Mikael locked himself in the office with the sign "Captain of Anti-Entropy". He first leaned against the door to feel the state of the world bubble inside his body.

"so far so good……"

It is also a world bubble anchored to itself. Mikael's one is not of the same magnitude as the one in Hollanddale in the future. The latter has a relatively complete world and civilization, but Mikael's one...is only one in size. Burindi City.

The stability is naturally different. This is also the reason why Mikael needs to use space power to continuously strengthen the boundaries of the world bubble.

The battle with Vishnu somewhat affected the Quantum Sea, so Mikael had to pay attention to it.

After all, a small "bubble" floating in the ocean tide is very likely to break no matter how anchored or reinforced it is.

Fortunately, this hasn't happened yet.

The structure of the World Bubble was relatively intact, but Mikael decided to go there himself.

On the one hand, he had to make sure that the people among them were also intact, and on the other hand... He had made an appointment with Xi'er to visit her once a week. He had been delayed for a day due to injury and had missed the agreed date. It was hard to come to Xi'er even if he wanted to. Are you getting anxious?

When his figure appeared again, he was already standing on the long bridge.

"Huh? Is the error so big?"

Mikael turned his head and looked at a tall building three hundred meters away. It was the place where Mei watched him, Ellie and the Sixth Herrscher fight. It was also the first [anchor point] that Mikael left in this world bubble.

Because the time of leaving the anchor point was before the world bubble was inverted and anchored to itself. So the position of this anchor point is absolute in space, and it can naturally be used to perceive the tiny fluctuations of the world bubble in the quantum sea.

Mikael just located there, but the space rift opened from the bridge three hundred meters away.

This error is naturally not small, but it is not particularly large. It is completely within an acceptable range. As the waves of the quantum sea subside, it will return to the previous anchor position.

After a brief consideration, Mikael appeared in the basement.

"Brother Mikael!"

The slight dizziness has not yet disappeared, and Xier, with a pair of dark circles under her eyes, has already thrown herself into his arms.

"Uh... Xier, you..."

"Hey..."

A uniform sigh came from my ear.

"Did something happen in the Eigenworld? Xi'er has been sitting here waiting for you for a whole day."

"Well, there is indeed a small problem."

While answering Ellie in the world bubble, Mikael put down Xi'er who was wrapped around him like an octopus.

He opened his mouth several times, but only half-opened his mouth, not knowing what sound to make.

In the end, it was just a sentence: "I'm sorry, Xi'er, I made you worry."

"It's okay! I know brother Mikael has a lot of things to do!"

Xi'er sat back on the seat obediently.

Compared to the past, her cheeks were much thinner, and her azure eyes seemed to be more profound.

"Let's go! Let's go prepare lunch for the two siblings!"

Ellie dragged Mei away quietly, leaving time and space for the two siblings.

Mikael stroked Xi'er's head with pity, and as always, he always messed up her hair unconsciously.

He didn't speak, and Xi'er stopped talking, just sitting there in a daze, as if waiting for him to speak.

"...Xi'er..."

"Hey, I'm here!"

"...Xi'er, do you want any toys? Or something delicious? Or do you want to watch Sister Eden's opera video? I came in a hurry this time and didn't bring anything. I'll make it up to you next time!"

Mikael tried to make his tone seem more relaxed, but when he heard his words, the light in Xi'er's eyes dimmed visibly.

189 days and 9 hours, this is how long she has been in the world bubble.

Although Mikael would visit her every week and bring her some insignificant happiness...

But the day of returning to the original world... never came.

"Brother Mikael, when can I go back... and be with everyone?"

Ellie and Mei in the world bubble are naturally good to her, or rather, very good to her, but... but there is no Mikael here after all...

She sat on the chair and shook her legs gently, but this sentence was buried in her heart after all - she still believed that Mikael must have a reason to keep her here, and she just needed to wait quietly.

Mikael looked at the silent girl and forced a smile. Since he was sure that the world bubble was still in good condition and Xi'er was still in the world bubble, Mikael no longer wanted to stay here - he was too scared, afraid that Xi'er would not be able to help but take her away as long as she opened her mouth to beg.

"Then... I'll go first?"

"Okay."

After blurting out this syllable, Xi'er suddenly wrinkled her nose, and her vision suddenly blurred.

A teardrop burst out of her eye and fell straight to the ground, leaving a shallow mark.

Will Brother Mikael see it? Will he?

Xi'er raised her head with a hint of expectation, but in front of her, there was nothing except the fine dust floating in the air.

"Click... click... click..."

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether it was the sound of teeth clenching or the sound of fists clenching tightly together.

"Liar... Liar! Big liar!"

In a trance, she seemed to see tears falling on the ground, piercing the indestructible armor plate...

She suddenly collapsed, collapsed to the ground, and then hit the tear-stained armor plate with her fists again and again.

The necklace given to her by Abonya swayed around her neck with her movements, making a "zero zero" sound.

The sound became louder and louder, until the person who punched suddenly realized that it was not the sound of the necklace, but...

the sound of water.

"Hey, right! Forgot to remind Mikael!"

Ellie, who was holding a lunch box of unknown color, suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

"The psychotropic drugs that Su prescribed for Xier were taken yesterday. I should have asked Mikael to go back and bring some more."

"Well... It's okay, it's not over now."

Mei held the lunch box with a more complex smell, and the door opened and closed automatically in front of the two.

"Huh?"

"Eh! Ahhhh! I'm so angry! The two siblings left without even saying hello to us!"

The room was completely empty.

Compared to Ellie's anger, Mei's expression gradually changed from shock to solemnity.

She put down the things in her hand and walked around the room several times.

"No, Ellie..."

"What's wrong!"

"Mikael and Xie'er didn't leave any words. If they left normally, would they have left without saying goodbye? Moreover, if Xie'er left with Mikael, he shouldn't have re-opened the world. Is the movement frozen?”

"You mean that Xier disappeared after Mikael left? That's impossible, right? This is a world bubble that Mikael has reinforced. How is it possible..."

Before she could finish her words, the entire space began to shake, like a rolling and struggling ship in a tsunami.

"What's happening here!"

"Didn't I say that before?"

Mei pushed the stool and sat down in the safety triangle area.

"I don't know what happened in the Quantum Sea. There have been huge fluctuations recently. The previous ones were relatively slight, and you and Xi'er may not have noticed it. This should be the last and largest fluctuation - Xi'er should be through This opportunity..."

Ai Li's expression gradually became serious - "Does that mean she has indeed left? Then...calculating the time, if Xi'er returns to the original world...doesn't it mean..."

Mei took a deep breath, and her eyes became pitiful and desperate: "Well... that's it... hum! [Conclusion]... I have to find a way to contact the original world... Fortunately, I am not indifferent to this. Unprepared - Prometheus."

"I'm here, Doctor."

"When will the restoration of the Second God's Key be completed?"

"It's expected to take another three hours."

"The Second God's Key, that's not..."

Mei nodded towards Ellie who looked shocked.

"Yes, our Second God's Key is theoretically only useful within the world bubble, but due to the space power left by Mikael in the world bubble, we can also make small-scale connections with the outside - through him opening up channel.”

"Then what? Take this opportunity to leave?"

"Of course that kind of thing is impossible. All we have done is to open a channel. Then we need a little luck... Quantum entanglement. I hope that we in the intrinsic world can feel all this and make preparations or prompts. Bar."
