The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"I have said it many times, and I think there is no need to continue to explain. After all, judging from the situation at the scene, no matter what I say, I can't clear myself of the suspicion, right?"

Mikael was sitting on the ground, leaning against the corner. There were two people in front of him holding a similar posture, namely Kevin and Su.

Su didn't seem to want to say anything, but just mechanically carried out the order of "Guard Mikael". After a slight hesitation, Kevin obviously shouldn't say anything more, but still couldn't help but say:

"Based on common sense, the current situation... and the evidence that can be collected are indeed very unfavorable to you."

"..."

"You said that the explosions and fires were caused by the monsters you saw during the day, and that Hua and Felice suddenly disappeared in front of you... But these are just your words, and they are too much. ... Bizarre. But the most important thing is the answer given by the typewriter - Hua and Phyllis are dead, and the murderer is Mikael."

"The answers given by the typewriter cannot be wrong. I admit that, but... could it be another me?"

"meeting."

Kevin nodded expressionlessly.

"So we are still willing to believe you. Just to be on the safe side, you cannot take any action before we obtain evidence that proves your innocence. The whole process must be supervised by me and Su. No matter whether the murderer is another Mikael or the twelfth Lawyer, if their purpose is to put the blame on you, then the current method of handling it can also be regarded as a way to lure the enemy."

Mikael nodded to show that he had no objection, but he quickly squeezed out an extremely forced smile——

"To be honest Kevin... you seem to be much more mature than I thought..."

"That... after all, it's because there is a fifty thousand year difference between you and me. Mikael, if we want to talk about changes... you are probably the one who has changed the most among those of us who survived, and you are also the only one who has not changed. People..."

"I don't have any say in this, but Kevin...you couldn't have said such awkward words before."

"Is it difficult to speak?"

Kevin shook his head, and then followed Su's example and remained silent.

There was no protest, no dissatisfaction, Mikael just sat quietly.

Well, he did lie, and there was indeed a brief confrontation between him and Hua in the moment before Hua and Pado disappeared.

But what he said next was not false.

Whether it was [nothing] or [no time], Hua and Pado were indeed not killed by him.

But in front of him, it suddenly turned into [0] and [1] all over the place.

The data that composed them was inexplicably disintegrated before the real battle could begin, but... it was not Mikael who did it.

Who could it be?

What's the point of killing Hua and Pado in front of him?

In fact, this [killing] is meaningless and worthless.

The data that made up the memory has been cleared, but the current paradise is not exactly the same as it should have existed. For example, the physical body and the memory are in a superimposed state. The death of the memory will not affect the physical body itself. existence, the body in the hibernation chamber may experience a series of hormonal disorders, and eventually have a nightmare or a splitting headache, but that's all.

The only thing that could be considered useful in killing the memory would be for Alicia, whose body had long since died. In this case, why should the culprit bother to do anything more?

Mikael couldn't understand.

To be honest, since entering the Paradise, he has been too passive.

Although it is true that he lurked with his understanding of his past self and superb acting skills, this approach is as meaningless as the memory of Hua and Pado being erased - if the other Mikael did not lose control, then Ying The men should know which Michael he is. If he is not, then such disguise will not bring any effect.

Maybe it's time for a showdown?

Once this idea appeared, there was an impatient urge that seemed to have to be done immediately.

It's the end, it's the end.

Why should you still be cautious?

To be honest, he couldn't wait to end his story in the Paradise as soon as possible. As long as this step was completed, there would only be one last step before the finish line.

But why is it still so procrastinating?

Is it because I feel that my end is approaching, so I am afraid - how is this possible?

For Mikael, death is no longer something to be feared. But if he said it was relief, that was not necessarily the case - because relief was detached and indifferent, these two words alone could not describe the excitement and excitement that surged through his heart when he thought of death.

The reason why I am still dilly-dallying until now is probably because I want to see the efforts of the heroes.

I want to see what kind of situation they can push themselves into with the trap they set at such an extreme disadvantage and with almost no clear cards. I also want to see where the thread of fate has obviously been cut off, and the whole world With the line being messed up by him, this group of brilliant people will make another effort that is familiar or completely different in the end.

In this case...

Then just keep waiting.

But don't be impatient, because fifty thousand years is too long, and even if you wait two or three more days, it will only increase the mileage by one ten millionth.

So, let’s do some unnecessary thinking——

As the Cocoon of Finality [itself], he can clearly feel that the power of erosion has been granted.

The time was a few hours after he entered the Paradise of the Past, and not long after that, he met Raiden Meiyi in the hall of the Golden Courtyard. It was also from that time that he had an idea and started playing tricks on himself.

Prometheus No. 17 has been completely unreachable, but this does not mean that she has been controlled by Mei again. Although Mikael delayed her activation time, she would eventually fall into imaginary number renormalization.

However, what if the loss of contact on the 17th is indeed related to Mei?

Is it possible that the Twelfth Herrscher was not actually born, but that Mei connected with Prometheus and modified the data inside the Cocoon of Finality to make him mistakenly believe that the power had been awarded?

But in fact, Mikael arrived in time enough that no matter what plan they had, they still hadn't had time to implement it?

So, they actually knew who Mikael they were for a long time, but... they just acted in conjunction with it?

It's not impossible.

As for the proof...

Mikael looked at Kevin for the first time, but quickly shook his head.

This man has long since lost all his immaturity and innocence, and is no longer the same Kevin who used to be so clichéd. His behavior just now seemed so genuine that no trace of it could be seen. But if he were like Mikael As guessed...it can only be said that Kevin...has indeed matured too much.

As for Su, forget it.

I have a little headache...

Mikael patted his head lightly. This action quickly caught Kevin's attention. He glanced up, obviously wanting to say something, but quickly closed his mouth.

Mikael frowned and tacitly agreed not to ask what he wanted to say.

When the other party made up his mind to keep his mouth shut, aggressive questioning was unnecessary and would not yield any results. This was something he himself told Mei Yi not long ago.

However, it was not until now that he realized that it was a bit strange for three men to be crowded in such a small and dark corner.

Especially himself, as if he was forced into a corner by Kevin and Su.

Fortunately, no one else was watching.

So time continues to flow.

No one spoke, only occasional unexplained eye contact.

There is nothing that can prove the flow of time, but as the Final Cocoon itself, Mikael's body instinctively records the flow of time.

A night passed.

[It is definitely not an option to continue like this, so it’s better to be prepared. 】

Just as Mikael was thinking this, there was a sudden knock on the door, and then Mei opened the door and walked in without getting a response.

The sunset that suddenly leaked in was so dazzling that even Mikael and Kevin unconsciously squinted their eyes. Only Su was unmoved because he didn't open his eyes at all.

His vision quickly returned to normal, and then he was greeted by Mei's gloomy face.

"What happened?"

Kevin asked aloud, but his eyes were fixed on Mikael.

"Things have changed."

Mei finished speaking, and took a deep breath before continuing:

"The fourth victim appears - Velvet is dead."

"ha?"

Mikael and Kevin shouted in confusion at the same time, and then stared at each other's eyes almost at the same time, but neither could see any flaws in the other's expression.

Su didn't say anything, as if he wasn't surprised by the result. But a few tears on the gently trembling eyelids and eyelashes revealed everything——

It wasn't that he was crying because he was sad, it was probably because he opened his eyes suddenly in surprise, and then his eyes were stung by the sudden light.

"Come out."

Mei Po waved weakly.

"Now, we can get rid of Mikael's suspicion for the time being. Follow me to the scene."

"on site?"

Mikael's fists clenched a little, then quickly unclenched.

The four people took steps with their own thoughts and soon arrived at the huge playground in the Eternal Paradise.

Mikael's eyes quickly scanned the merry-go-round where Eve and Ellie once played, and finally stopped at the body in front of the merry-go-round.

Most of the remaining Yingjie, except for Qianjie, who was probably unable to stabilize his mood because he lost his love the night before, and Aponya, who was probably watching over him, the rest of the people, including Mei, were also present, and they consciously formed a circle. A circle seemed to prevent someone from damaging the scene, although everyone knew that such a thing was almost impossible.

Mei leaned down to confirm, quickly stood up straight again, and said word by word:

"This is the first time a body has been found at the scene."

It seemed like there was a second part to this sentence, but after waiting for a long time, it didn't come.

The purpose of Mei's opening seemed to be just to state such a boring fact.

So, without anyone making any move, he suddenly took two steps forward and stood next to Mei, the position closest to the body.

Even with his head lowered, he could still feel several powerful eyes focused on him, and his back quickly became warm. This feeling was not unfamiliar. After all, he had been encouraged and encouraged by these eyes. Fight with trust.

"Can I take a look?"

Mikael spread his hands towards Mei.

Mei didn't speak again, just nodded slowly.

Mikael knelt on one knee and reached out to rummage through Vilvi's clothes. It looked like a normal inspection. After a while, he stood up again and commented pretentiously: "There are no wounds on the body, as if she has fallen into brain death. If this is not the paradise of the afterlife, the biggest suspect should be a fusion warrior of the spiritual perception type. However, in this data world, the person who has mastered the power of erosion is undoubtedly more suspicious." Mei nodded silently again, as if mechanically agreeing. "It seems that the Herrscher of Erosion may have really been born." Looking at Mei's serious look, Mikael sneered silently twice, but his heart soon fell into the abyss known for being unstable. It was not Vilvi who died, but Vilvi of [Extreme Evil]. This body was constructed by him personally. He had considered this possibility at the beginning and had already left a mark. Where did the real Vilvi go? Could it be that because the real Vilvi's memory also dissipated, the Extreme Evil personality could not exist alone? No, it's impossible. The extremely evil Vivi is not only the personality of the memory, but also the personality of Vivi's body. If the body is still alive, she will not die.

So... how did she die like this?

Of course, he doesn't care about the life or death of the extremely evil Vivi.

The reason why he released this personality was that if he was exposed when playing the role of his past self, he could directly terminate the function of this body, and then use the power of control to construct a clone to kidnap Vivi, creating an alibi to get rid of suspicion.

But he was not so anxious. He originally wanted to wait until tonight to take action, but he didn't expect that the extremely evil Vivi had been killed.

Theoretically, the effect he needed was achieved, but this kind of thing made him think more.

What was the purpose of the person who killed the extremely evil Vivi?

No... I can't say that. After all, he didn't even know who the enemy was until now.

If the Herrscher of Corrosion was born out of thin air, then maybe it was just to follow the malice. But if the person who became the Herrscher of Corrosion was another self... No, that's not right. If that's the case, why would he play such a play?

In a trance, 50,000 years had passed since he became a true god, but Mikael felt like he had returned to Luluye in the past.

He had great power, but it was difficult to use it, so he was fooled around.

But this feeling was not annoying. Instead, the brain that had not been working properly for a long time due to the overpowering power finally got rid of the rust on the surface and started to work frantically.

No, that's not right!

On the morning of the fourth day in the paradise, Mikael finally thought of a problem that he had always ignored.

There is no doubt that the other him is the best candidate to bear the erosion force.

But he is not the only candidate.

There are at least two people who have the qualifications to become a Herrscher in the paradise of the past.

"To be safe, I'm going to check on Ling's situation."

Although he knew that everything at the moment might be directed by this woman, since the other party did not tear his face, Mikael continued to pretend to ask for instructions.

Asking for instructions is also a test.

But Mei waved her hand generously-

"I understand, you go ahead."

"Wait a minute!"

Sakura held the long knife in her hand and suddenly stood beside Mikael.

"Since we are going to see Ling, as your sister, let me go with you."

"Okay."

After Mei nodded, she squatted down and continued to check on Vivi's body.

Mikael looked at Sakura, and his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.

In the end, he said nothing, but just walked mechanically. Sakura did not make any sound, but just followed him closely, stepping on his footprints with every step.

No one tried to stop them, but as they walked, Mikael and Sakura turned back at the same time and saw Mei who followed them silently.
