The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

Mikael opened his eyes with difficulty, but what he saw was not the real world.

In a daze, the ground he stepped on was soaked from the white snowfield into blood-red sand.

"Mikael..." A familiar call came from behind.

"Mother Celia!"

But when he turned around, he saw only dry and cracked ground, and houses that were either crumbling or crumbling.

Even so, he never forgot.

This is the city of Vostok.

The city he overlooked when he first became the Herrscher.

"Why did this place become like this? Didn't I... didn't I stop the Second Herrscher? Didn't I... no!"

He thought he wouldn't be sad, at least not this sad. Because he never owned anything from the beginning, and the only person he wanted to save was Alicia.

Therefore, people often don’t realize what weight these things they thought they didn’t care about left in their hearts until they lose them.

One drop, two drops...

Something wet his face.

Is it rain?

He raised his head, but the falling rain had a dark color.

It's like a sin that needs to be carried from birth.

"..." A strange feeling came from behind again.

There was no sound and no warmth, but Mikael felt like something was hugging him.

There was a voice that planted a seed in his mind, and it seemed that he wanted to call him back to his arms.

He suddenly had a strange premonition - he should and must turn back at this time to see...

But he was destined to be disappointed. He just caught a glimpse of a golden vine, and then it began to fall rapidly in the darkness as if someone had pushed it.

But there was no sound of wind in my ears.

Gradually, vague voices of conversation sounded in his ears:

"Dr. Spacey, what is the patient's condition now?"

It was a slimy sound with a cold and moist touch.

"How should I put it... Maybe my metaphor is a little inappropriate. I can't find any medical words to describe the patient's condition. His brain is now like a... uh, a CPU that is overloaded to the point of almost burning out?"

"What about other places? Is there anything in his body that is different from ordinary people?"

"No, his body tissue is no different from that of a normal human being, except that Honkai energy is extremely adaptable. In addition, he does contain a small amount of Honkai energy in his body, but considering his status as a warrior and Captain Himiko's report, I Think this is normal."

"Spacy, you should know how to talk to 'them', right?"

"Uh... Dr. Mebius, I don't understand what you mean..."

"Wait a minute, it seems our patient has woken up."

The pale light stung his eyes, and he involuntarily squinted his eyes, but when his gaze swept across the green-haired woman sitting beside the hospital bed, he sincerely showed a hopeless expression. .

He quickly figured out the situation he was facing.

He didn't know if Himihu finally guessed his identity as a Herrscher. In any case, she did keep her promise and concealed the truth from the Fire Chaser Moth. Otherwise, Mikael felt that he would not be in such a ward - he should have been in prison, or on Mebius's autopsy table.

But the reason why a lie is a lie is because it cannot be hidden from everyone - at least the person in front of me seems to be unable to hide it...

Mikael checked his body and found that his Herrscher core was missing.

Alicia should have done it, otherwise based on that core alone, he would be on the autopsy bed by now.

"Okay, Spacy, you can take the report to them. I have something to say to this patient in private."

He said this, but Mebius did not let him leave immediately. Instead, he took the case report from Spacey's hand, revised it and threw it to him.

Spacy shrugged, as if he had anticipated this situation, took the revised case, turned and left the ward.

Mebius knocked on the iron railing of the hospital bed and said, "Okay, my lovely patient, there is no third party here now. Please answer the next questions seriously!"

Mikael laughed dryly, as if he was answering Mebius's words.

"You should also know what I want to ask, right? And you should also know that they have asked those two people the same question a long time ago."

"During the battle against the Herrscher, what happened to those mechas, railguns, and battleships at the end?"

Mikael thought silently - if it was Ellie, what lame excuse would she use?

"Ahem, that was the Herrscher's last blow after absorbing all the Honkai energy. She seemed to want to use mimicry to construct a product of human civilization... Ha, you also know that the purpose of Honkai is to destroy civilization. , so she manipulated these products of human civilization and suffered a backlash? Anyway, we don’t know what happened, but those things that were obviously her creations turned around and attacked her. "

After Mikael finished speaking, he saw Mebius biting his finger and looking at him with a half-smile.

"How should I put it? Without any communication, you can actually guess their answers very accurately... It's really amazing."

"Doctor, you know this is not something you can just guess, so this is the truth."

Mebius sneered. Mikael couldn't figure out her thoughts and simply stopped talking.

"Oh? Then how did you survive? Why didn't those mimic creations attack you? Do you know? Even the idiots at Fire Chaser didn't believe this lame excuse, and the reason why they and you didn't accept further The investigation is just because I dissected the Herrscher's body and studied her core, and that's all. If the case submitted by Spacy just now was not modified by me, you should know the consequences."

"and……"

Mebius took out a player and placed it beside his bed. Mikael turned around and saw that what was playing was the scene of him holding the rail gun when he first landed and faced the Second Herrscher.

"You're actually a Herrscher, right?"

Mikael took a deep breath. He did not answer directly, but asked:

"Exchange of equal value, doctor, if you have any requests, just ask."

Mebius was stunned. She covered her mouth and laughed, causing her slightly loose white coat to tremble.

"I've never seen a guinea pig so cooperative like you... Now, I'm more interested in you."

"I'm honored by that."

"No, it's not an honor. You should feel lucky, because I am interested in you, so I will take more care of you in the subsequent experiments. At least, I will let you live until I study you thoroughly... …”

Mikael remained indifferent, and upon seeing this, Mebius roughly ripped off the salt water from him.

"I am very reasonable. You can leave now to attend the Fire Chaser's celebratory dance. But I will always wait for you in my laboratory. You won't get lost, right?"

"A friendly reminder, Mebius' patience is very bad. I hate waiting for others, so if you want to come to me, you have to do it as soon as possible."

"I don't know when these 'truths' in my hand will appear on the desk of the top management of Fire Chasing Moth."

Mikael put on his clothes silently and walked out of the ward.

Mebius bit his finger and looked at the young man's back as he walked out of the ward. He didn't know whether he was asking the other person or himself: "The Herrscher who fought for mankind... obtained authority from God and used it to resist the God. Is this really possible?"

Mikael's footsteps stopped at the door of the ward.

"Who knows? Maybe we get power from the gods just to pull him down from his throne."

Mebius narrowed her eyes. She was in a daze for a long time. It wasn't until the figure disappeared that she sneered, "I seem to have found the direction, the goal of human evolution... Oops, I feel a bit reluctant..."
