The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"Ji La——"

The black car braked suddenly and stopped in the middle of the road. Mikael jumped out of the car neatly, but he could only see the pair of arrogant signs on the roof of ME Club from a distance.

Looking at the crowded streets in front of him, Mikael sighed lightly. He could have come directly, but he was just afraid of scaring some ME agency staff. Besides, he couldn't get involved in this matter, so he couldn't do it again." Tribulation field" right? So it's better to let Xiao Hei bring him here.

But he still underestimated the influence of ME Club. Compared with the "St. Freya Academy" of the Destiny's East Branch, ME Club, the Counter-Entropy East Branch, is too well-known. There was nothing we could do. The mission of St. Freya Academy was only to cultivate Valkyries quietly, while ME Club had to solve the funding problem for Anti-Entropy, so it was difficult not to be high-profile.

Therefore, as soon as they heard the big news about ME Club President Raiden Ryoma, all the media in the East rushed to this street as quickly as possible, so that the place where Mikael parked was at least one hour away from the ME Club building. kilometer.

A closer place was filled with large and small cars, some even parked across the road. The reporter held a microphone in one hand and a selfie stick in the other, standing beside the car and holding the car door to broadcast live. But being so far away, Mikael didn't know what they could say.

The siren of an ambulance could be heard vaguely behind me. Someone was probably rear-ended and injured further ahead, but with the current congestion and chaos on this road, even if the ambulance came, it might not be able to get in.

Mikael shook his head. Although this was already a new era, and although humans had re-evolved from 50,000 years ago, they had never exceeded Mikael's expectations.

Human beings are human beings. What humans were like 50,000 years ago will remain the same 50,000 years later.

Mikael seemed to calmly blend into the traffic, but his figure suddenly disappeared after being blocked by a van.

The driver of the van was smoking a cigarette irritably when he suddenly felt something flashing at him on the passenger mirror. He turned his head and looked over, but there was nothing there.

Mikael's figure appeared carelessly in the lobby on the first floor of the ME club building. He was worried that his sudden appearance would scare many ordinary people, but it wasn't until he reached the lobby on the first floor that he realized that he was simply overthinking it. .

The place had already become a mess. The girl in charge of reception and a few security guards were squatting in the corner with their heads in their hands, like ostriches with their heads buried in the sand. The entrance to the hall was blocked by a group of uniformed policemen, followed by reporters carrying long guns and short cannons. They crowded together noisily and continuously attacked the thin human wall formed by the police. Mikael also saw several familiar figures. It wasn't that he really knew them, it was just the famous reporters and anchors he always saw when watching the news when he was bored.

They have long disregarded their usual upright and solemn postures. Many female reporters who look extremely beautiful on TV are also unkempt, revealing skin full of yellow spots, thick dark circles and huge bags under the eyes. It is obvious that they have got the news at a glance. The first time, I rushed over without even having time to put on makeup. Mikael blinked and looked at their hands extending straight into the hall through the wall of policemen. He felt that each of them was like a zombie in a movie, making inarticulate shouts.

In fact, Mikael could guess what they were shouting. It was nothing more than all kinds of clichés and questions. In fact, everyone knew that such behavior was meaningless, but the big news that ME Agency was surrounded by police was really exciting. Besides, everyone They are all screaming, if they don't speak out, it seems like they are not paying attention to their work. The voices of so many people were mixed together and soon weaved into a meaningless roar. Looking at it this way, it looked more like a zombie.

He took a few steps towards the reporters. The reporters saw people in suits walking towards them. They thought that ME Agency was finally going to send someone to explain the situation, and suddenly they became even crazier.

Mikael shook his head again, he really couldn't bear to see such ugly behavior. His steps also stopped, but it wasn't because he changed his mind, it was just because the elevator next to him opened, and he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye——

"Everyone! I am Komatsu, the current head of the public relations department of ME Agency."

Mikael recognized it. It was Mei's former driver. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he became angry and roared. His identity instantly attracted the attention of all reporters. No one paid attention to Mikael who suddenly appeared.

"Mr. Komatsu, we all heard that the president of ME Club, Mr. Raiden Ryoma, was dismissed by the board of directors because of misappropriation of funds. Is this true?"

"What? Isn't it an economic fraud from ME?"

Before Komatsu officially spoke, the reporters started quarreling because of the different information. Probably everyone felt that the "gossip" they got was accurate.

Xiaosong also saw Mikael standing in the hall. He walked quickly to Mikael's side and asked softly:

"Why are you here? Is Mei okay?"

Mikael shook his head in confusion.

"Don't worry, she's at school, where information transmission is slow, so she probably doesn't know what's going on here."

Komatsu glanced at Mikael suspiciously, but now was really not the time to discuss Mei, so he did not ask again wisely, but quickly informed Mikael of the current situation:

"The president is in danger this time. I wonder if Mr. Mikael can do anything?"

As a driver, he is considered to be Raiden Ryoma's personal friend. He is closer to Raiden Ryoma than a mere employee of ME Club or a member of Anti-Entropy. He may not know who Mikael really is, nor does he know who he is. He only knew two things about what he had done - first, Mikael had little to do with ME Club and was also Raiden Ryoma's "personal"; second, Raiden Ryoma occasionally consulted his opinion on some matters.

These two points were enough. When he saw Mikael for the first time, the thought of "asking him for help" came to his mind.

Mikael shook his head again:

"You can't finish what you want to say in one or two sentences. You finish what you want to do first."

Hearing this, Komatsu's anxiety was palpable, but Mikael was right, the matter of Raiden Ryoma was a bit complicated, and his task at this moment was to stabilize these reporters.

He took two steps forward, raised his hands above his head, and clapped twice, attracting the reporters' attention again.

"Everyone, be quiet!"

He was not used to being watched by so many people all of a sudden.

Especially, he actually felt very guilty...

"Ahem! That's it. First of all, thank you for your attention to ME Club. Today, some unpleasant things did happen in ME Club. Regarding this matter, please be patient and consider your situation. , the logistics department of ME Club is preparing breakfast for you. After everyone has finished eating, our company will hold a press conference. Please calm down now and not disturb the normal social order. "

After finishing this call, he didn't dare to stay any longer and rushed back to the elevator in a few steps.

Mikael watched coldly. After these words, the reporters calmed down a lot. After all, everyone is here to understand the truth of the incident and report it. Since ME Agency has agreed to hold a press conference, there is no need to do it again. It made everyone embarrassed. Moreover, ME Club also thoughtfully prepared breakfast. Everyone got up early in the morning and stood in the cold wind for so long. They were tired, hungry and cold. Even those who had already had breakfast wanted to have a cup of hot food later. Cover your hands with milk.

But they didn't expect that the truth of the matter was——

"What you just said was all Ryoma asked you to say, right?"

Mikael rushed to the elevator at the last moment. The elevator door closed. He and Komatsu looked at each other for a moment. In the end, he was the first to speak.

"Yes...yes. Mr. Ryoma transferred me back to the security department. He is not the public relations minister. I can't do this either."

His body was still trembling, and it seemed that the previous nervousness had not yet passed.

"Mr. Ryoma has been restricted from freedom. He finally gave me a note and asked me to do this..."

Mikael nodded, the development of things did not surprise him.

He just asked in a calm tone:

"Then what?"

Xiaosong raised his head, his face a little confused. Mikael knew that the Thunderbolt Ryoma only had time to write these down for a while, and what to do next, maybe he was powerless, or maybe he believed that Mikael could handle the matter according to his wishes.

"Xiaosong, you go directly to the public relations department later and tell me what happened just now, but don't bring yourself into it, do you understand?"

As Mikael spoke, he pressed the button for the floor where the PR department was located.

Xiaosong looked a little hesitant, not sure whether he should listen to Mikael, but he couldn't think of any solution himself.

But there is a more important point:

"What about Mr. Ryoma?"

Seeing Xiaosong's eager and uneasy expression, Mikael's tongue rolled silently in his mouth.

What should Thunder Dragon Horse do? In fact, everything he asked Komatsu to do already showed his intention - he wanted ME Club, to be precise, the Anti-Entropy Far East Branch to continue to exist.

Mikael didn't know what Cocolia was thinking. Perhaps out of some bad taste, she didn't target Thunder Ryoma, but the entire ME club. This is what the previous reporter called the “ME Social Economic Fraud.”

To be precise, "ME Corporation defrauded approximately US$3.4 billion under the guise of financing the development of ultra-high frequency electromagnetic field restraint."

Cocolia is kind. She gave Raiden Ryoma a choice. He could allocate the responsibility to his subordinates and ultimately let the entire ME Society take the blame, or he could take the blame himself and reduce the impact of this incident on ME Society.

As for what Ryoma would choose, in fact, Mikael, Cocolia, and Ryoma himself knew exactly.

"Kokolia is really a lunatic. The problem with ME Club is that after she takes over the Anti-Entropy Extreme East Branch, won't she have to wipe her own ass? Oh, ah... I see."

Mikael exclaimed inwardly and understood Cocolia's plan - what was important was the resources of the Anti-Entropy Extreme East Branch, not the ME Society. Without the support of counter-entropy, it doesn't matter whether ME Society exists or not. She can completely transfer ME Society's resources to other newly established companies that are completely controlled by Cocolia herself. After all, ME Club is where Raiden Ryoma started. Even though Cocolia is fully penetrated, she still doesn't feel at ease...

Of course, once Raiden Ryoma didn't choose to bear all the blame, this woman would definitely have corresponding arrangements.

Raiden Ryoma also understands this. Since he can't escape, he can only keep ME Club's hard work. In this way, even though he has left, the friends who worked together may still be able to take care of Meiyi.

These twists and turns, Mikael did not intend to explain to Komatsu. He may not be able to understand you even if you say it. Moreover, the elevator is about to reach the floor where the public relations department is located, so there is no time to elaborate.

He could only make a vague promise:

"Don't worry, I'm here. I came here just to see Mr. Ryoma."

Komatsu looked at Mikael suspiciously. At that moment, the elevator dinged and the doors slowly opened to both sides.

But he did not go out immediately, but stared at Mikael suspiciously:

"Mr. Mikael, you must..."

Mikael patted his shoulder lightly and asked:

"If I promised you that nothing would happen to Mr. Ryoma, would you believe it?"

"Yes...no."

Xiaosong is not a fool, he is just sick and needs medical treatment urgently.

Mikael shook his head and pushed him out just as the elevator door was about to close.

"Boom——"

The elevator slowly rose again, but Mikael chuckled under such a depressing atmosphere - he did have a thousand ways to keep the Thunder Dragon Horse, and in turn trap Cocolia to death, but...

He also wants Thunder and Lightning Ryoma to come in.

"Ding!"

Mikael walked out of the elevator slowly. The uniformed policeman remained motionless, but the employees of ME Agency were running around in a hurry.

Mikael calmly walked up to a policeman and asked unceremoniously:

"Where is Raiden Ryoma?"

The policeman and Mikael looked at each other, a look of confusion immediately appearing on their faces.

Mikael got the answer directly from his mind and left simply. But before he took two steps, the phone on his body vibrated.

Mikael turned into the bathroom with an unchanging expression, checked that no one was there, and turned on his phone.

As expected, it was a text message from Raiden Ryoma. I really don’t know how he did this when his personal freedom was restricted, but it is understandable that ME Club is his territory, and it would be abnormal if there were no backdoors.

The text message he sent actually only contained one sentence:

"Mr. Mikael, please remember the last words I said last night."

"..."

Without much effort, Mikael found the corresponding memory:

"Mikael, you promised to protect Mei."

Mikael suddenly clenched his phone tightly, as if thinking of something more distant.

"Boom——"

The annoying thunder interrupted his reverie. Mikael glanced at the increasingly gloomy sky through the toilet window, then took a deep breath, walked out of the toilet, and nodded to the camera at the end of the corridor.

"At least, you are a good father...unlike..."

…………

"Rumble--"

Mei Yi woke up from the sound of thunder, and she covered her chest suddenly. Only when little stars appeared in front of her eyes did she let out a long breath, and then started panting rapidly.

She glanced around with her peripheral vision. The classmates around her were enjoying their lunches and looking at her openly and covertly. Just to avoid such eyes, she lay down on the table and pretended to sleep. She didn't expect that she would have two classes in one sleep. Come to lunch break.

Perhaps the teachers in those two classes were kinder and couldn't bear to wake her up at such a time.

"What are you thinking about? Maybe they don't pay attention to the news at all, don't know what's going on in ME Club, and are still treating you like a young lady. Or they don't even bother to care about you."

"Who! Who is talking!"

Mei Yi's scream successfully attracted everyone's attention, but that was the case, but those who had concealed it better now also looked at her with burning eyes.

Meiyi's back suddenly became chilly, and the entire classroom was immersed in silence.

After a while, Meiyi apologized first:

"Yes...I'm sorry, I may have heard wrong."

How could I hear it wrong? She just heard a voice that was exactly like hers ringing in her ears... No, she must have been hallucinating. Who could imitate the voice exactly like her own?

But the students didn't seem to want to buy it, and soon someone shouted exaggeratedly:

"Oh, my eldest lady! If you are in a bad mood, please don't bring trouble to us. You might scare us away from a heart attack. The school is not run by your family. Can you consider other people's feelings?"

Meiyi looked over aggrievedly, and the person who spoke was the girl who took the lead in arranging her this morning. It was just that not long ago she could make the other party bow down without saying a word, but now she didn't know how to resist.

Soon someone else answered:

"Oh, don't be so harsh on Mei! She is the eldest lady after all, so what's wrong with her temper? Be careful when Mei comes home and Uncle Ryoma buys Qianyu Academy... Hey, Mei, why don't you let your dad really do this? Let’s take over the school, and then we’ll be able to have a strong presence by your side.”

This statement immediately caused a burst of laughter. Everyone knew that there was a big problem in ME Club.

Of course, some people did not laugh, but this silent resistance was not resistance, but condoning violence.

Meiyi lowered her head silently. She didn't know how to refute, let alone how to resist.

If she were the former Thunder Queen, maybe she should slam the table and speak out loudly and clearly against those who ridiculed her.

Or to go to the extreme, it is not impossible to let them see the strength of Beichen Yidao Ryuu Xu Jie Chuan.

Yes, these were all thoughts that popped up in her mind, and they were perfectly normal thoughts. But in the end, she gave up all.

after all……

"I've never been a thunder queen, I just... relied on having a good father..."

Mei Yi curled her body inward unconsciously, as if she was about to lie back on the table.

Suddenly, as if something sounded, she suddenly pulled out a huge lunch box from her school bag.

"boom!"

"Everyone...do you want to try my bento?"

She stood up excitedly and hugged the lunch box tightly from the table, as if grasping the last straw.

"They said that if I give them lunch, they will also eat it, because if they don't eat, it will be free..."

And once you eat her lunch, you will be embarrassed to target her...

It has to be said that the bento is still very attractive to everyone. After all, everyone is still in high school. Many people are not deliberately targeting Mei. It’s just that someone has taken the initiative and they just follow the crowd.

At this time, Mei Yi looked pitiful while holding the lunch box, which actually inspired many boys to be protective.

But just as they were about to step forward, they recalled in their minds the scene where Mei Yi had coldly rejected their confession, so their steps could not help but slow down.

During this moment of hesitation, the girl who took the lead in gossiping about Mei Yi in the morning spoke again:

"What are you doing? I told you that I have a bad heart, but you just like to scare people, don't you? You just want me to die, right? Why don't you take a lunch box and take a picture of the table? Does it look like you are powerful?"

She said this, but walked up to Mei Yi in a few steps, reaching out to grab the lunch box in Mei Yi's arms. Mei Yi hugged the lunch box tightly, shook her head and stepped back. The girl directly pushed Mei Yi on the shoulder. , and took out the lunch box with the other hand.

"ah!"

Meiyi's waist hit the corner of the cabinet in the last row of the classroom. She groaned in pain, and tears flew out of the corners of her eyes.

"What's your name again!"

The girl stepped on Mei's seat, opened the lunch box, picked up a piece of sushi and put it in her mouth, and kept saying:

"Well, it's delicious. The chef at home makes it, right?"

"Um……"

When the girl saw that the former "Thunder Queen" was so humble in front of her, unable to even speak clearly, a sick sense of pride arose spontaneously, and she shouted even louder:

"Louder! I didn't hear you! Did your chef make this!"

"Yes, it is!"

Meiyi answered with her face covered.

"Ho ho! Did you hear that? It was made by her chef, the chef hired by her dad with money... Huh? Then where did your dad's money come from?"

"Earned..."

"It's a lie! Who doesn't know that your dad used the name of ME Agency to defraud the whole world of billions of dollars (don't ask me why it's dollars, ask the screenwriter)!"

The girl shouted, and flipped the lunch box toward Mei Yi, causing rice and vegetables to spread all over Mei Yi in an instant.

But she was still not satisfied and actually rushed to Meiyi again:

"I see not only this lunch box, but also the clothes you are wearing were bought with money your father cheated from you!"

She grabbed the woolen sweater of Mei Yi's school uniform jacket and tried to tear it off. Mei Yi held her hand hard and just kept shaking her head.

"You still dare to resist?"

The girl took out her hand and raised her palm high...

"stop!"

The next moment, a hand stretched out from the thorn and pinched the girl's wrist.

"Click——"

"ah!"

The girl covered her wrist and backed away. When she raised her head, she saw that it was the idiot from the next class standing in front of Mei Yi.

"You just watch like this? People from the next class are riding on us!"

The classmates who were watching the show with their arms folded suddenly became commotion. If they were asked to bully Mei Yi, they would not dare to do anything. However, it is really inappropriate for people from the next class to come and take care of their own class's affairs.

So several boys squeezed over in an instant and were about to drag Kiana away. During the tug and pull, Kiana gradually fell into a disadvantage. She was a girl after all, no, she was actually...

A flash of light flashed in Kiana's eyes, but it quickly dissipated - if she used all her strength, she wouldn't be afraid of people in this class, but would this make Mei even more isolated?

Having no other choice, she turned her head and shouted with a bit of hatred:

"What are you still doing here? Run!"

"run?"

Mei Yi raised her head and smiled sadly.

"Where can I run to?"

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Kiana seemed to see a flash of blood red in Mei's pupils.

Then, her whole body felt as if she had been electrocuted. Thousands of hairs floated clearly. At the same time, energy fluctuations that were somewhat familiar to Kiana were also transmitted from the surrounding space.

"Boom, boom, boom--"

The thunder that had just stopped outside the window rang again, and the whole world was soaked in pale thunder.

"Mei!"

Kiana shouted in fear, but her body was dragged away by several boys.

"don't want--"

Her voice stopped suddenly, because a tall figure appeared out of thin air, and in the blink of an eye, all the boys who were pulling her were captured.

Then, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on the top of Mei Yi's head without fear. As he moved, for some unknown reason, the thunder outside the window gradually subsided, and Mei Yi's raised hair quickly calmed down, and everything returned to its original state.

After that, the man slowly turned his head and glanced at the girl who led the trouble. The girl's eyes suddenly widened, and then she pinched her neck hard and vomited everything in her stomach. Finally, she rolled her eyes and fainted in a pool of stains.

A group of "simple" high school students were directly frightened by this weird situation. They retreated away one after another, and some even fled the classroom directly. It is unknown whether they will go to find the teacher and the principal.

Mikael didn't say anything else. He turned to look at Mei who was keeping her head down and took her hand gently. His voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone in the classroom to hear: "Raise your head, let's go home." It seems that everyone wants Mei to become a Herrscher in this chapter. Actually, I want to, but I can't, because becoming a Herrscher at this time is equivalent to Mei turning evil directly, and the conditions are not met - the qualified body implanted with gems cannot become a Herrscher at will, because strictly speaking, the power of the Herrscher has been bestowed, that is, the gems in their bodies, and the will of Honkai cannot interfere with what happens next. Therefore, all qualified bodies implanted with the Sirin gem need to input a large amount of Honkai energy to activate, which is the case with Mei, Seele in the X-10 experiment, and Kiana. Only Wendy is half an exception.
