I have no regrets about my 2D world!
Page 361
In the First Research Institute, Mei, who was doing an experiment, stopped what she was doing and opened the virtual screen beside her.
Alicia would not lie to her. The Himiko she was looking for must be related to the Herrscher. She was either near the Herrscher or she herself was the Herrscher.
But there's already a Herrscher somewhere else, and now there's Himiko...
Mei felt a long-lost sense of urgency in her heart.
The existence of Herrschers is more powerful than each other. We could barely deal with them one by one before, but now they are starting to appear in groups. Will there be a phenomenon of several Herrschers appearing together in the future?
It seems that I need to speed up Velvet's progress... and Mobius. Although he had hidden his whereabouts before, she still found out that Mobius had been to the birthplace of the Third Herrscher once, and also borrowed a Key of God from Velvet. It is not clear what he did there, so it will be necessary to investigate later.
While thinking in her mind, Mei's hands were not idle either. She quickly found Himiko's location while multitasking.
Mei: "Found it. It's in a small hotel west of the Australia Dome."
Alicia: "Got it, it's up to me now!"
Mei: "Be safe."
Alicia: "Thank you for your concern, Mei. I'll bring you a gift when I get back."
After sending the message, Alicia put away the communicator, straightened her clothes, and quickly rushed to the address sent by Mei.
"I hope this can be resolved peacefully before the Eden concert. I'm really looking forward to the concert~"
On the other side, Mei looked at Alicia, who was shown to be offline, and smiled helplessly.
It's really perfect to do whatever you think of, complete your goals successfully, and take care of others at the same time.
But even if it is perfect, as long as it does not deviate from the scope of human beings, it will still be affected by some things.
"You must explain this to me when you get back."
After turning off the screen, Mei was about to take off her white coat and go out when she suddenly remembered something. After thinking for a while, she turned on the screen again and sent a message to Weiwei, then went to Mebius' laboratory.
"It seems that I really need an assistant. If Bai hasn't found one yet... how about researching artificial intelligence?"
……
Looking back at another place, when Prometheus agreed to come to the concert, Bai took her hand and teleported directly to Australia.
“It looks quite lively here.”
"The Australia Dome is one of the world's largest performing arts venues. Even if it's closed, there are still thousands of people visiting every day. It's normal for it to be bustling."
Prometheus looked around, his eyes filled with thought.
In her memory, she was born after the eleventh Ruler of this era. At that time, there were not many people and places left in the world. She had only heard of grand venues like the Australia Dome. Now she could come and witness it in person... It was really interesting.
"If I remember correctly, all concerts require tickets, right? And for something this large, tickets would have sold out a week or even a month in advance, so how are you going to get in?"
Prometheus turned to look at Bai. She was very curious about what Bai would do in a place that had its own rules and would not affect others. Would he just use his ability to replace someone's vote?
Or does it mean that she can go in and watch the movie "openly" without even bringing a ticket?
Bai didn't know what Prometheus was thinking, and didn't answer for the time being. Instead, he carefully looked at this so-called giant egg.
"When it comes to listening to music, the closer you are, the better. So, are you interested in standing in the same spot as Eden?"
"what do you mean?"
"You have a good voice, too. I know some songs that would suit you very well. Do you want to become famous overnight?" Bai Dai said this in a seductive tone, looking at Prometheus expectantly.
But Prometheus was just like Bai just now, he didn't answer but just looked at him silently.
"Really don't think about it?"
"If it's just about singing, it doesn't matter where or what I sing, but I can't ask you for permission.
Even though I no longer have the ability to analyze human emotions, I can still clearly sense your ill intentions."
"What? I won't hurt you."
"But you will make fun of me."
"Is it that obvious?" Bai lowered his head and thought about his recent behavior. It seemed that it was indeed a bit obvious.
"Okay, forget it this time. Let's go and I'll take you to listen closely.
I'm also curious about what Eden's singing is like, as he's considered the artistic representative of this era."
"Don't you want to make some other arrangements?"
"What are you doing? I told you we're here to listen to music. Don't overthink it, just relax and enjoy it."
Prometheus turned his head and found that Bai didn't seem worried at all. He thought about it for a moment and nodded slightly.
"I understand. I'll follow your instructions."
"That's right." Bai nodded with satisfaction and walked straight forward.
Chapter 150 Familiar Stranger
Ten hours have passed since the Herrscher appeared. The fighters sent by the Fire Moth Headquarters have arrived, but because their equipment has not yet caught up, they can only stay outside the Dead Zone for the time being.
After the selfless sacrifices of several branches, the Dead Zone now only completely includes one city, but dozens of areas have been affected by this collapse.
The fighters could only wait for the arrival of the latest combat uniforms while clearing out the Honkai beasts and dead soldiers in the affected areas.
At the same time, with only two hours left before the concert started, people had already started to enter the venue.
In a hotel near the Dome...or rather a small guesthouse, Himiko, with red hair, was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the communication device with a smile on her face, and seemed to be chatting with someone else.
After mumbling a few inaudible words, Himiko put away her communication equipment and began to pack her things.
According to the time on the ticket, the concert was about to begin, so she had to hurry over.
Just as she packed her things, picked up her backpack, opened the door and was about to leave, someone was already standing at the door waiting for her.
"Hi, Himiko, I'm so lucky. I didn't expect you to come to Eden's concert. It's about to start. Do you want to go together?" Alicia stretched out her hand to Himiko with a smile on her face.
"Alishia?" Himiko was stunned for a moment. "Are you here to see Eden's concert too? No, how did you know I was here?"
After getting off the plane, she saw Alicia's back, but she was not sure if it was Alicia at that time. Even if she was sure it was Alicia, she just thought that Alicia might be here to carry out some mission.
After all, Alicia had also been in the army for a period of time and gave a very simple evaluation of all the training. She also had some understanding and knowledge of it.
However, Alicia's mission had nothing to do with her. She just came to attend a concert, and she deliberately used her vacation time. As long as her vacation time was taken up, she would not be able to help but complain no matter how good their relationship was.
As for why she was now in a hotel that could not even be found on the map, it was actually because she had completely forgotten to book a room in the nearby hotels and large guesthouses in advance before coming here. When she arrived here, she found that almost all the hotels were fully booked, and even if there were any vacancies, they were already reserved.
In desperation, I had to spend several hours to find such a place.
But she lives in such a remote place, how could she be found?
Seeing the confusion on Himiko's face, Alicia smiled smugly.
"Hmm, I didn't know you were coming, Himiko, but when I was chatting with other people in the Fire Moth, someone told me that you also came to participate in Eden's concert, so I asked around a little, and sure enough, I found out that you were looking for a place to stay.
But all the slightly famous hotels nearby are full, so I guess you should be in a small hotel like this.
This is now the fifth... no, sixth place I've looked for, I finally found it."
Although Alicia basically never tells lies, this is a special time, so I don't think it's a problem to embellish the words a little.
Besides, before contacting Mei, she really searched all the nearby hotels!
However, Himiko didn't seem to appreciate it and looked confused.
"But why are you going through all this trouble to find me? Since you're here for the concert, shouldn't you just focus on the concert? It doesn't matter whether you look for me or not, right?"
Alicia had a good relationship with her, but Alicia also had a good relationship with everyone in the army who had come into contact with her. Logically speaking, even if they knew she was here, there was no reason for them to go to such great lengths to find her.
"We are friends, Himiko. You are the only one I know in this area, so I had to come and look for you.
How about going to the concert together?"
Alicia blinked and invited again.
Friend...Himiko's eyes seemed to be in a trance for a moment, and when she saw Alicia's genuine look, she suddenly smiled.
"Then let's go together."
......
Half an hour later, the two were walking side by side on the road.
Even at night, in this technologically advanced area, the bright neon lights on the streets and in the city make the night as bright as day.
The stars and the moon shone on the two people, and the two shadows swayed as they walked, as if they were about to jump out suddenly.
"Himiko, I heard you've been a member of the Fire Moth for a long time. Can you tell me about your past?"
No matter when or where, Alicia can always find something to talk about.
"Sure, what do you want to hear?" Himiko asked generously.
"Well, when you first joined the Fire Moth, what was the Fire Moth like at that time, and why did you choose to join?"
"When I first joined, that was a long time ago. Let me think about it."
With a nostalgic look in her eyes, Himiko thought for a moment and then told the story.
"At that time, the Fire Moth called it an organization, but in fact it was more like a large gathering place for human resources. If there was any problem, you could contact the Fire Moth and they would send people to solve it.
If I remember correctly, things like weapons were purchased from some local forces.
I don't know what the people who originally founded Fire Moth wanted to do, but when I joined, I heard that Fire Moth was an organization that was willing to help others and would take the initiative to help others solve various problems.
And it just so happened that I was…” Himiko suddenly paused, then smiled helplessly, “I was wandering outside at the time, and I survived with the help of kind people along the way.
I heard that the Fire Moth is an organization that is willing to help others, and I wanted to repay those who helped me in the past, so I took the initiative to join the Fire Moth."
"Did you regret it after you went in?" Alicia looked curious.
"That's not the case." Himiko shook her head and continued, "After all, the Fire Moth gave me a place to live and gave me the ability to survive. So even if the Fire Moth sent me to work in some remote place at that time, as long as I didn't starve to death, I would be willing to do it. How could I regret it?"
"Himiko, you are indeed very strong."
Thanks to Bai's care, Alicia has never experienced the feeling of wandering, but when traveling with Bai, she has personally come into contact with many people who have had similar experiences, so she can barely feel that kind of suffering.
It was also because of this that she understood how difficult it was to survive in that situation.
Himiko waved her hand nonchalantly: "Hey, it's not about being strong or not, I just wanted to have a chance to repay those who helped me."
"That's great too."
"Haha, it would be much better if other people thought the same as you, Alicia."
Himiko laughed out loud and felt much more relaxed.
Alicia smiled slightly, "What happened next? Did you thank the people who helped you?
With your current status, it shouldn't be difficult to find those people, right?"
Speaking of this, Himiko's smile gradually faded and a bitter expression appeared on her face.
"With my current identity, I can easily find those people, but... they are long gone."
"...Feel sorry."
"It doesn't matter. It's been a long time. I don't care anymore."
"Well... I overlooked the situation. As an apology, how about I treat you to a meal after the concert?"
"Is that okay? The restaurants around here are really expensive! Alicia, you've only been at Fire Moth for a short time, are you sure you can handle such a large expense?"
Himiko was a little surprised. Before the funds that Bai had were injected into the Fire Moth, their life was not good.
Unless you are injured and receive special care, most of the time you just need to have enough to eat, and you have to carefully calculate every month's salary.
Even if Bai's money arrived and their salaries increased, Lisia had only been here for a short time. Even if she had saved some money, she still looked a little distressed to spend a meal here.
"Hehe, don't worry about the money. Just eat as much as you want, Himiko. It would be just as difficult to eat me out of money as it is to eat the Fire Moth out of money."
Although Mei is now covering her daily expenses, she probably won't mind if it's just the money for a slightly extravagant meal.
What's more, this meal might even solve a big problem.
"Really? Then I won't be polite. I've had enough of the dishes in the Fire Moth Restaurant." With Alicia's guarantee, Himiko seemed to have already thought of the delicious food in the meal, and she slightly extended her tongue to lick her lower lips.
"Himiko, do you really dislike the food in the cafeteria? I think it's still okay."
"Of course, I can, but I've been eating it for over ten years. No matter how delicious it is, I've had enough."
"Hmm...That's true."
