Whose Xingyue looks like you?

"You really do have future vision, right?"

"If you want to think so, then so be it."

Bai Ming spoke with full energy, "At this moment, my communication with you isn't solely to answer your questions, but to deepen our trust. Ever since I came into contact with magic, my heart has been filled with anxiety. It's not because I've sensed a mysterious decline, nor is it because I'm surprised, but simply because of a longing for life. Olga, I believe that now that you know you're going to die, you will deeply understand this desire for life, so even if it's an unequal contract, you will sign it without hesitation."

Olga Marie was silent for a moment.

She couldn't refute Bai Ming, because she really didn't want to die and wanted to do something, so she resolutely signed the contract with Bai Ming and became Bai Ming's familiar.

"What I seek is peace of mind, Olga Marie. I share certain views with some, but more importantly, my principles of action are different from those of the world. You have to admit that most people act for peace of mind and survival. Perhaps some live for death, but that's out of necessity. I don't seek to reach further on my own, like a magus. I seek a world where everyone can survive."

Bai Ming's words were so straightforward that Olga Marie could already hear something different. She understood the problem from Bai Ming's tone, "The outside world..."

Olga Marie's tone became increasingly serious, and she even seemed to give up on herself.

After all, there was no one else around except Bai Ming, who didn't care about her identity as the director at all.

Bai Ming still looked passionate:

"Let's call it the Burning of Humanity, Olga Marie. Humanity has already perished, and Chaldea is its last bulwark. But I'm thinking—assuming the Humanity guarantee is resolved, then in the intervening time, all nations on Earth will put pressure on Chaldea. Even if Chaldea possesses relevant records, these rulers will find ways to interfere with Chaldea's operations. What will you do then? What will your choice be? Don't rush to give me an answer. If you want recognition, wait until everything is done and show me."

Olga Marie was silent for a long time before finally speaking, "I believe in my father, and I also believe in my own judgment. I once had a teacher who could see the future. Her name was Theresa Firoz. She loved me, but she died in an accident because of me. I can feel that you are truly thinking of me now. So no matter what you say or what you have done in the past, I, Olga Marie Yasmiret Animusphia, swear on the honor of the Animusphia family that I will trust you unconditionally until the end of my life."

While Olga Marie and Bai Ming were deepening their trust in each other, on the other side, Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka received a call from Roman, and according to Roman's call, they rushed towards the direction of Olga Marie and Bai Ming.

On the other side, there was Aju Hinako - or Yu Meiren, or Yu Ji.

A pile of bones was scattered around the elf lady who pretended to be a literary girl.

Aku Hinako murmured to herself with a cold face: "What a hassle! How can I possibly do something like this? Besides, the environment here is so damaged that I can't even self-destruct."

The self-destruction that Aku Hinako mentioned is a tactic of abandoning one's own body, causing magic power to go out of control beyond the limit, and using a curse to cause abnormal weather conditions before rebuilding the body. It is also a self-destruction attack that can only be used by elves that share their spirit core with the environment. This means that if Yu Ji self-destructs in a completely destroyed place like Fuyuki City, rebuilding her body will cause herself to be contaminated.

From the Qin and Han Dynasties to the modern times, there are not many people who can be said to understand Jie Hinako, one is Xu Fu, the other is Gao Changgong. If you have to say, the current Bai Ming can be said to understand her.

But Bai Ming’s words are really hard to accept.

Roman's message came through, and Roman on the blue screen said, "Aku Hinako, I have sent you the coordinates of the place you are going. Perhaps because the situation was urgent when the spirit particles were transferred, you all dispersed. Now Mashu and Ritsuka are rushing towards Bai Ming's direction."

"...I know where they are even if you don't tell me."

Aku Hinako hung up the phone. The noise caused by Bai Ming's thunder that fell directly from the sky was so loud that only a blind or deaf person could not see or hear it.

Soon, Aku Hinako reunited with Bai Ming, Olga Marie and others.

Looking at the belated arrival of Ake Hinako, Bai Ming said, "Are you such a homebody that you can't even do basic exercise?"

Chapter 25: If you sign a contract with me, you must be prepared to die with me.

Jie Hinako looked at Bai Ming in confusion. She hadn't done anything yet and he was already talking about her?

"Okay, stop arguing!"

Seeing Aku Hinako's attitude of "Do you think I'm afraid of you if I don't argue with you?", Olga Marie's head began to hurt uncontrollably.

Seeing Olga Marie coming out to mediate, Aku Hinako exclaimed, "Isn't that the Director? He's still alive! No, logically, he should be dead. After all, Director Olga Marie has absolutely no spiritual particle transfer qualifications. Did you sign some kind of unequal contract with Bai Ming? Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to have such a stable existence."

Olga Marie looked at Aku Hinako with a fierce look in her eyes. How come her mouth was just as unpleasant as Bai Ming's? No wonder Bai Ming was the only one who paid attention to her.

"Um...can someone explain to me what's going on?"

"Oh... it's you. I remember now, the guy who fell asleep right under my nose during the meeting." Olga Marie looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a bad face: "What's wrong with you? You're obviously an ordinary person who has nothing to do with magic and came here to make up the numbers. How did you get transferred here? And what's with that attitude of yours, Mashu? Did you become a sub-servant? Why did you succeed only now?!"

Bai Ming's words "Fujimaru Ritsuka's adaptability to spirit particle transfer is 100%" silenced Olga Marie.

"An ordinary person with 100% adaptability? Never mind. Mashu first placed the shield on the spiritual vein as a catalyst to establish a summoning link, and then connected to Chaldea. Although I learned a lot from Bai Ming, I still don't know what happened inside Chaldea."

Olga Marie took command: "Bai Ming, I'll leave it to you to explain the current situation to that ordinary Master. Aku Hinako, come over and help establish a stable formation base."

Mashu placed the shield on the spiritual vein. Bai Ming spread his hands, with the attitude of an older brother, and walked to the other side with the blushing Fujimaru Ritsuka in his arms. He began to explain to Fujimaru Ritsuka all the things about magic and the mysterious side, and said that Olga Marie was just a white-haired female imp with big breasts, and because of lack of love, she was like a hedgehog every day.

Olga Marie, who was standing by, blushed on the spot. Before she could say anything, a beep sounded and a communication connection was established with Roman.

"Woo! Finally connected."

Roman sighed, but before he could say anything, Olga Marie spoke up, "So now you're probably the only one holding the highest position alive there, Roman. And Bai Ming has already explained my situation to me, so starting today, you'll be the acting director of Chaldea."

"Let me report the situation first!"

Roman yelled, "There are less than twenty survivors in the entirety of Chaldea. Three of the forty-nine Masters are on your side, Director. Beryl was pierced by a sharp object and has died in the sea of ​​fire. The rest are all in critical condition, and there's not enough medical equipment—"

Seeing Roman was about to continue, Olga Marie became anxious. "Stop! Freeze them first. The frame has a freezing device. We can find a way to revive them later. Make sure no one dies first!"

"Oh, yes, I forgot."

Roman thought for a moment and ran to arrange for the freezing of the frame.

"This is shocking! Cryopreserving someone without their consent is a crime." Mashu complained nonchalantly, explaining to the clueless Fujimaru Ritsuka, "Don't look at Director Mary like this. She values ​​human life more than her responsibilities as a director."

Olga Marie turned around and snorted back, "What nonsense are you talking about? As long as you're alive, you can explain it all, right? I can't bear the lives of 45 people!"

Even as the monarch of Animusphia, Olga Marie could hardly bear the death of thirty or forty magic elites from various families. If they were all dead, the other monarchs would definitely unite and hold her accountable.

Soon, after Roman had arranged everything, he came back to report the situation and his arrangements for the remaining employees.

Olga Marie's already bad expression became even worse after listening to Roman's report, but she still praised him unexpectedly: "If I were here, I couldn't do better than you."

"Enough small talk, Olga Marie."

Bai Ming walked over and said, "Roman, we can just abandon the external contacts you mentioned earlier. Let Da Vinci find a way to be self-sufficient in Chaldea. Before the forced activation of the spirit particle transfer, Chaldea can no longer guarantee the future of humanity, because the humans outside have been completely exterminated. The twenty or so people in Chaldea are the last of them."

"W-what? Why didn't you tell me about this ahead of time?"

Seeing Olga Marie about to explode again, Bai Ming asked, "Will it be of any use to tell you? Director Olga Marie, you are cold on the outside but warm on the inside, timid yet pretending to be strong. You can't do anything right now and can only watch quietly from the sidelines."

As Fujimaru Ritsuka was amazed, Olga Marie bit her lip and retreated in defeat: "Cowardly or something——"

Olga Marie then began to speak again, "Originally, we were supposed to investigate Singularity F. I'm still useful. None of you here know healing magic, right? Then I'll be the field medic! Our goal now is to investigate the situation at Singularity F. Since two members of Team A are here, we can deal with any problems we find. Let's go!"

"You're really talking nonsense, but there shouldn't be any problem with four protecting one."

"The four of us are more than enough to protect this ordinary person." Olga Marie suddenly felt that Bai Ming still had a few good words in his mouth, but the next moment Olga Marie couldn't hold it back anymore. Bai Ming said, "What are you thinking about? Olga Marie, you are the one who is being protected. Although Fujimaru Ritsuka is an ordinary person, he is much luckier than you. You are unlucky and have no combat ability."

After saying that, Bai Ming looked at Mashu again and said, "Although I don't know why you forced me to sign a contract, Mashu, since you have signed a contract with me, you must be prepared to die with me. The same goes for Olga Marie. As for Fujimaru Ritsuka's Master level, I will focus on training Fujimaru Ritsuka's command ability after this is over."

Olga Marie sighed, "I'm already dead, right? Do you think I have to die twice?"

Mashu nodded and responded, "Yes, Senior!"

Seeing Bai Ming taking over all the command power, Olga Marie said, "I am the director!"

Aku Hinako looked at Bai Ming, then at Olga Marie: "It doesn't matter if you are the director. Although I don't want to admit it, this guy is much more reliable than you at this time."

Roman, on the other end of the line, blushed. Seeing the three men, unable to communicate properly, about to start arguing again, he quickly said, "Based on the information we have, I'll leave the specific situation regarding the Tousaka family, the port, and the Fuyuki Bridge in Fuyuki City to Bai Ming. I'll urgently repair the spirit particle transfer device."

"Then let's go, first to Fuyuki Bridge, then to the port to see what's going on."

Chapter 26: Ritsuka, I now appoint you as Chaldea's Foreign Minister

Mashu no longer remembered how many skeleton soldiers she had smashed with her shield along the way, nor did she remember how many bones Bai Ming had picked up.

Because Galahad only gave Mashu the spiritual base and spiritual equipment, but did not leave Mashu with any combat experience, along the way, Bai Ming and Aku Hinako basically watched Mashu fight against the skeleton soldiers. Only a few skeleton soldiers that Mashu missed would be dealt with personally by these two.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was not afraid of this apocalyptic scene at all, but was incredibly calm. Olga Marie, who had been screaming in fear throughout the scene, looked at him with a respectful eye. (In reality, Fujimaru Ritsuka was just like a fool, not understanding anything.)

After Mashu cleared out another wave of skeleton soldiers, the Chaldean group finally had a brief moment of peace.

At this time, the group had already explored the Fuyuki Bridge and Fuyuki Port, and did not find anything abnormal in these places, so they planned to go to the Tosaka family, the manager of the spiritual vein in Fuyuki City, to find out.

But before that, they need to rest for a while. After all, Ritsuka Fujimaru and Olga Marie are strictly speaking ordinary people in this team, and their physical fitness is not very good.

"Let's rest here for now. Have Roman bring some food. This place has no way to supply itself."

Following Bai Ming's order, everyone began to rest.

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka approached Bai Ming and said, "I'm sorry for burdening you guys."

Bai Ming looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in silence, staring at him with his eyes fixed on him, feeling extremely flustered. So, Fujimaru Ritsuka asked, "Senior, what...what happened?"

In this place in Japan, class stratification is very serious. It is common for old employees to bully new employees and for senior students to bully junior students. Bai Ming's silence put a lot of pressure on Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Bai Ming said, "I joined the company earlier than you, so it's not an exaggeration for you to call me your senior. But you don't need to apologize. When Roman asked us to leave, it was me who asked you to search for survivors."

After hearing Bai Ming's words, Fujimaru Ritsuka breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was not bullied in the workplace because of what he said wrong, it was good.

Bai Ming added, "But you have a pretty good temper. You can listen to Olga Marie and Azuki Hinako's sarcasm without losing your temper. As for you, just say "senior" and tell me if anyone bullies you."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded, then asked, "So... what you said before about the extinction of humanity... is it true?"

"It's true," Bai Ming said. "Of course, I only told you about Servants, Sub-Servants, Familiars, Magic, Magic Circuits, and the foundations of Eastern and Western magic. Most magicians are arrogant, selfish, and inhumane. People like Olga Marie are the outliers among magicians, and they only make up a tiny minority."

Bai Ming paused at this point. "You can let Olga Marie explain things about the Magic Association to you. I've seen you quite like teasing Olga Marie, but I must remind you that it's okay to tease Olga Marie in private. But, for example, if Olga Marie continues to serve as director after returning to Chaldea, she needs to maintain her dignity in public."

"Yes, I understand."

"I'm sorry to interrupt you, but I'm seeing a high-powered source approaching you. It seems to be a Servant! Please leave immediately. Mashu's current combat skills are not enough to confront a Servant head-on—"

Roman's hurried voice was heard, and Olga Marie shouted, "Servant?!"

Bai Ming said, "Since this is Fuyuki City where the Holy Grail War is taking place, I'm not surprised by anything that happens after the incident. Mashu is ready to engage the enemy in battle. There's no need to worry about the director's safety. Aku Hinako will be in charge of protecting Fujimaru Ritsuka."

Aku Hinako frowned: "What about you?"

"Fighting alongside Mashu, not all magi will live to an old age and die like dogs."

Bai Ming's words made Aku Hinako a little angry on the spot, but at this time Bai Ming and Mashu had already faced the attacking servants.

The visitor was wrapped in thick black smoke. Mashu's huge shield blocked the attack of the "servant". The sharp weapon collided with the shield, and a large amount of sparks burst out. Bai Ming took out the Yuqing Supreme Brick and hit it directly on the head of the shadow servant.

The shadow servant disappeared in an instant.

"Senior's weapon... is a brick?"

Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka started complaining at the same time. Olga Marie said, "Is this the time to complain? Isn't your Central Plains weapon good enough? Why do you have to use this thing?"

"Shut up, you bitch!"

Bai Ming made a hand gesture and Olga Marie flew towards Bai Ming involuntarily. The brick in Bai Ming's hand flew out and hit the head of another shadow servant whose spiritual base was the Ascender. The position where the shadow servant was standing was exactly where Olga Marie was standing.

"It seems that because Mashu is a sub-servant, we are being targeted by these guys."

Bai Ming called the brick back into his hand and said, "The one on the other side who wants to attack, won't he come out yet?"

"Oh my, I've really been discovered."
