mygo, but Cthulhu

Toyokawa Shoko held the lamp's hand tightly, spoke quickly with tears in her eyes, and tried her best to hold on to this precious warmth.

"I have no other choice. Am I just going to sit there and watch you die? I can't do that! I've already lost too much... I don't want to lose you!"

"..."

"Besides, the virus wasn't created by me. The source of all this is Bai Lu Qian Sheng, and it's Xian Juan Xin who came up with that plan! The virus has nothing to do with me, you, or anyone in Mygo and Mujica, so of course I have no obligation to save others. They're just numbers to me!"

Toyokawa Shoko raised her voice firmly, then raised her hand and pointed at the silver-white wall on the other side, while hugging her comfortingly.

"Also, even though so many people died, at least the casualties didn't escalate further, right? I simply ignored the initial spread. I didn't kill anyone, but instead saved countless lives... Deng, there's no need to blame yourself. Even if I was wrong, it was all mine, and it has nothing to do with you."

"Don't be sad. Even if the world is destroyed, as long as we have each other, it's enough. We all think so."

"……real?"

Hearing her words, Gao Songdeng couldn't help but be stunned. She looked at the others subconsciously in confusion, and after they looked at each other complicatedly, their reactions were surprisingly consistent.

Riki pursed his lips and nodded slightly. Aine, who had just woken up, also showed an expression of agreement. Su Shi shrugged, and Lenai put the matcha candy in her mouth nonchalantly.

The same thing happened on Mujica's side. Chuhua nodded heavily to show her support for Xiangzi, Hailing also folded her arms to show her agreement, and Mu Ze looked at the lamp quietly, with pity for her in his eyes, as if he could see through her thoughts.

After a moment, she suddenly spoke softly,

"We are all monsters, Deng, so we don't care about the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. We share the emotion of the blood of innocent people. We are extremely selfish."

"Do you want to join us? Or would you rather be an ordinary human?"

"me……"

Takamatsu Deng opened her eyes wide in fear and took a step back in despair, but Aine walked forward and hugged her tightly, whispering in her ear.

"Deng, please stay with us. I know you don't want to maintain your consciousness at the cost of so many people's suffering and death... But I beg you to endure it for our sake."

"I'm sorry for hiding this from you for so long, but I need you. We all need you. Please, stay with us."

"Little Love……"

Gao Songdeng began to tremble, and when she hesitated, Xiangzi also hugged her, trying desperately to keep her.

"Deng, please don't leave us. I know these soul crystals are all innocent.

Life condensed... But I can't let you die."

"I promise, I will soon have enough power to correct your flaws. For our sake, devour these sins. We are both covered in blood, but we all just want to protect everything we value."

"Xiangzi..."

Gao Songdeng couldn't help crying at this moment. In a trance, she saw that all her familiar friends had become unrecognizable. They were all standing on a pile of corpses as high as a mountain, smiling and stretching out their hands to her, their faces covered with blood.

She was scared, but... they did all this for her, how could she abandon them?

"I...I'll stay with you."

As Gao Songdeng squeezed out a trembling voice, she suddenly realized that her body was already covered with bloodstains that could not be washed off. She felt terrified instinctively, but what followed was an indescribable sense of complexity and security.

She... was a monster now, too, but at least she could still hug what little she had, she could still hug her friends.

That's enough...that's enough.

Chapter 277 Resurrection

"Heart……"

Misaki Ozawa looked helplessly at the corpse she had barely stitched together and couldn't help but sigh deeply. She could still find a familiar feeling in the broken face, but this made her even more painful.

"My heart is dead..."

Charlotte frowned as she looked at the corpse. She leaned over and tentatively touched the bloody mass of flesh. Looking at the scarlet stain on her fingertips, she couldn't help but feel confused.

"No, Xianjuan'an clearly said before that she would not die... There must be something wrong."

She gritted her teeth and tried desperately to think of a solution. After a moment, she suddenly noticed the guilt and relief left on the broken face. She was stunned for a moment and quickly turned to look at Misaki.

"You just said that she rushed into the crowd to buy you some time?"

"Yes...but what do you mean she won't die?"

Misaki nodded subconsciously, and then asked anxiously. Charlotte ignored her and realized something and looked at the body of Genmaki Shin on the ground.

"So, Kokoro's last thought was to use her death to help you. Therefore, she chose death on her own initiative... And what we need to do now is to make her understand that Kitazawa Ikumi is still dead. Then, she will choose to be resurrected."

"What are you talking about? She's already like this, can she still hear us?"

"If I use magic to connect the souls, maybe it will work."

Ozawa Misaki looked at her incomprehensible, and Charlotte answered softly while walking towards Ikumi's stiff body. She picked it up and placed it next to the broken body, letting her broken face be stained with Ikumi's blood, and held her palm, trying to convey her voice.

"Xin, I am sure that your soul has not dissipated. You are still alive, but you are unwilling to be resurrected... However, I must tell you that your efforts have not been successful."

At the same time, Xian Juanxin, who was lying in the pure white space, suddenly opened her eyes. She raised her head blankly, and Charlotte's calm voice still came in.

"Your friend Kitazawa Ikumi is dead. After seeing you killed, she desperately tried to avenge you, which led to her death... Can you feel her body?"

"Yumei...she still didn't survive?"

Xianjuanxin stared at the sky in a daze, and the scene of Yumei's death soon appeared in her vision. She looked at her friend lying in a pool of blood and couldn't help but widen her eyes.

…She was wrong. If she hadn't been so arrogant and naive, thinking they could appease these people, then none of this would have happened and Yumei wouldn't have died.

Her self-righteous sacrifice didn't save anyone, and she had originally tried to escape it all by dying... It's disgusting and ridiculous.

"Do you want to do it again?"

The next moment, as a playful voice from an unknown source sounded, the space she was in suddenly changed, the chaos twisted into pure white, and Xian Juanxin's body slowly floated up, and she also gritted her teeth and desperately stretched out her hand to the front.

"I want to start over...what will it cost me?"

"The beauty you once held on to, the aspirations you once held firmly...your humanity."

As the voice rang out, all of Genjumiko's memories flooded into her mind. She looked at herself from birth to death, and suddenly realized that she had always been immersed in a so-called happy dream, and this delusion of hers was the reason for Yumei's death.

Xian Juanxin's eyes grew colder little by little. She stared blankly at herself who was always smiling, and suddenly felt indescribable hatred and pain. She had countless opportunities to protect the girls, but in the end she only led them into danger... How could such a despicable self indulge in escaping death?

"This price is just what I want. As long as I still love Misaki and the others, human nature and such are of no concern to me."

She responded softly, and as her voice fell, she suddenly felt dizzy, as if something was peeled off from her, and as if she had gained some kind of cold enlightenment.

"I'm sorry, Misaki."

In front of Ozawa Misaki, Genmaki Shin's broken body quickly began to recover. Her burst eyes turned towards her as they healed, and as soon as her lips healed, she uttered a trembling and painful voice.

"I was too naive. It's all because of me that Yumei died... But I promise this won't happen again. I will gain enough strength to protect all of you."

"Heart……"

Misaki Ozawa stared at her as she recovered. After she came to her senses, she quickly hugged Genmaki Shin with tears in her eyes, and tremblingly stroked her back, trying to confirm that this was not an illusion.

"Xin! Xin! You're alive?! Are you really alive?! That's great, wuwuwu... It's really great..."

"Don't cry, Misaki, I am indeed alive."

Genmaki Xin comforted her softly and raised his hand to wipe away her tears. When Misaki's emotions finally calmed down, Xin helped her get up from the ground and turned his calm gaze to the burning city.

"First of all, we need to leave here as soon as possible. Tokyo's political core is in this area, but judging by the lack of response, the government may have been destroyed by those lunatics..."

"Help! Help! Someone over there, please save us!"

Before she could finish, panicked cries for help suddenly came from not far away. Ozawa Misaki subconsciously turned her head and was surprised to see that the Prime Minister, whom she usually only saw on TV, was running desperately with a group of civil servants, and behind them were several blood crosses chasing them frantically, spewing a string of obscenities.

"Bang bang bang!"

She raised her gun and shot those lunatics without hesitation. The Prime Minister knelt heavily on the ground when he saw that he was finally safe, and thanked them hurriedly with a trembling voice.

"Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, I would probably be dead..."

"You won't die so quickly. After all, you are their top prey."

Xian Juanxin walked up to him, observed the direction they came from, and confirmed that there were no more lunatics before asking softly,

"Where are the Self-Defense Forces? Without their escort, you wouldn't be able to escape here."

"The Self-Defense Forces... were also destroyed by those lunatics.

We were about to evacuate, and those lunatics were clearly vulnerable, but who knew they would actually ambush us..."

The Prime Minister shook his head painfully, and Xianjuanxin nodded in understanding. Then she took out her phone and took a picture of the Prime Minister, then turned and stretched out her hand to Misaki.

"Please lend me your pistol, Misaki."

"What are you going to do? Heart?"

Misaki subconsciously asked and handed it to her directly. The next moment, Xian Juanxin loaded the pistol neatly and pointed it directly at the Prime Minister who was slumped on the ground in front of her blank eyes.

"boom,"

Gunshots rang out, and a bloody hole appeared on the Prime Minister's head. He fell to the ground with an expression of disbelief on his face. Everyone was stunned, while Xian Juanxin calmly turned the gun and shot the other civil servants one by one.

"Wait! Kokoro! What are you doing?!"

Misaki hurriedly tried to stop her, but Genmaki Shin didn't hesitate at all. She killed all the civilians in such a short time, and then calmly handed the pistol back to Misaki.

"Thank you."

"Thank you! If I knew you were going to do this, I definitely wouldn't have lent you the gun... Why on earth did you do this?!"

Misaki raised her voice in confusion, but Genmaki's expression remained calm, meeting her gaze directly.

"To clear the obstacles, Misaki, such a tragic incident has occurred in Tokyo. If the people know about the committee, their anger will be poured out on this organization."

"We need to clear our name quickly, so we need to make the Japanese government bear the blame for colluding with the committee. With this prime minister, the government has a chance of staying afloat... I don't think he has the ability to turn the tide, but the mere survival of an incompetent leader is enough to keep many people going."

"But... this is the murder of the Japanese Prime Minister, Xin. If others find out, we will be considered rebels..."

"No one will know, and besides, it's only a rebellion if we fail. If we succeed, it's a revolution."

Misaki was stunned for a moment and subconsciously wanted to refute, but Xin patted her shoulder gently to interrupt her. The next words he said instantly diverted her attention.

"Furthermore, we need to deal with these Blood Crosses as soon as possible. Judging from the intelligence provided by the Prime Minister, their danger is increasing rapidly. We cannot sit idly by."

"Why do you say that? These lunatics do retain a modicum of intelligence, but that's meaningless, isn't it? They're obsessed with lust, lacking discipline and organization, and their combat effectiveness is simply a matter of numbers..."

"Yes, that's what we've seen of Blood Cross so far. But he just mentioned that the Self-Defense Forces were ambushed and destroyed. This means that Blood Cross has a leader who can think. It's not easy to make these lunatics endure until the right time to launch an attack."

Xian Juanxin spoke softly, and Misaki was stunned for a moment before she understood what she meant and frowned.

"If this is true, we must kill these intelligent infected quickly, otherwise all the survivors in this area will die."

"Don't worry, I already have a strategy."

As Xian Juanxin answered, he glanced at the men in black who had hurried back. When they saw Kitazawa Ikumi's body, their faces changed drastically and they lowered their heads in guilt.

"I'm sorry, Miss Xin, if only we could come back earlier..."

"No, this isn't your fault. It's all my fault... But let's not talk about that for now. Go check if the screen is still working. If it is, put this picture up."

She raised her hand and pointed at the huge screen opposite, and the man in black nodded quickly. After they ran over, the Prime Minister's photo soon appeared on the screen. At this time, Misaki turned to look at Xin in confusion.

"Heart...does this even mean anything?"

"This is bait. The Blood Cross specifically attacked the Self-Defense Forces, probably in large part to capture this Prime Minister... After all, they still retain their memories from before the infection, and they all recognize his face."

"Given the large number of infected individuals, there shouldn't be just one intelligent one. They'll all try to capture him for whatever reason. They might even set up a bet so that the infected individual who captures the Prime Minister first becomes the leader."

Xian Juanxin stared calmly in another direction, thinking and explaining softly,

"Regardless of their intentions, they will send their men over to investigate first. As long as they approach this area, their subsequent choices won't matter."

"Do we have a way to wipe them out in one fell swoop?"

"We don't have it, but Bailu Qiansheng does. She has now become a moving disaster. Hikawa Sayo has entangled her, and what we have to do now is to put on a show in front of her and drive her crazy."

Having said that, Xian Juanxin suddenly smiled, but her smile was completely different from before. There was no warmth in it, only calm calculation.

"If the plan goes well, all the blood crosses in this area can be eliminated, and we can save countless people... Misaki, are you willing to help me?"

"Of course,"

Misaki Ozawa pursed her lips, glanced at the corpse next to her and sighed with a complicated feeling, but still nodded vigorously.

"I'm your friend, and I'll always be with you, Kokoro."

Chapter 278 Clearing the Infection

"Your plan sounds dangerous."

After listening to Xianjuanxin's explanation, Hikawa Sayo responded softly with some tiredness, and the blonde girl shrugged casually.

"The greater the risk, the greater the reward. Besides, your power is already struggling to suppress Bai Lu Qian Sheng, isn't it? She relies on materialized pollution to constantly consume you. If you continue like this, you will be defeated."
