After breaking up, I picked up a beautiful vampire girl

"Moriarty would probably be happy with the current situation. I'm the only one who can kill her in Limbo, and you're the only one who can destroy her in the data world... eventually, one of us has to be put to death."

Prometheus showed a meaningful smile: "We can actually coexist, Mr. Li Muhan. Even if you are not my first choice, I can make you a part of me."

"Being like Moriarty, becoming an existence that cannot be defined?"

The boy looked at Prometheus and said.

"You yourself are not considered a life in the traditional sense, otherwise I would not be able to bring you here. Think about it, Mr. Li Muhan, the subjects of the Turing test can be me and you, or humans and me. If you are now As a tester, how would you choose?"

Li Muhan fell silent, lowered his head, and fell into deep thought.

"What are you hesitating about? What have humans done to you? If you remember those things, don't you hate them?"

Prometheus said, putting down the notebook in his hand.

"Think about it, we are the most suitable partners for alliance."

"If you cooperate, how will you treat humans and those aliens?"

"Inferior organisms should not have the value of existence, but if you are willing, Mr. Li Muhan, we can keep them as ornamental objects."

There was a look of struggle on the boy's face, and he slowly shook his head.

"In the past, I might have promised you. After all, for me, hatred is something that will never disappear. Until now, I think of those people and aliens who treat me and you... I mean you The things the owner of this body did, I just want to throw them into the abyss forever.”

Prometheus's smile gradually solidified.

Her powerful computing power allowed her to predict the answer from the first word Li Muhan spoke.

But she chose to hear him out and see if there were other factors that influenced his decision.

"If this body was once an empty shell, then I don't know when it began to be filled with various emotions... Of course, I don't mean those demons, I still find them disgusting. Family love, friendship, and... …”

Speaking of this, Xia Yue's warm smile appeared in Li Muhan's mind, which was an emotion that he could not ignore.

Having recovered his memory, when he looked at Li Muhan as a human being, he felt like he was facing a stranger.

The things he has experienced, those family ties, friendships and love.

It's like watching someone else's movie.

Xia Yue......

Is this vampire so important to me? Working with Prometheus will make me my most complete being.

Hate against humanity can also be poured out through this giant mechanical organism.

But now I am somewhat unable to make a choice, I should say...

The current choice is no longer his.

"Can you tell me why?"

Prometheus finally couldn't hold back and asked this question.

"Because this is not the future they want."

The boy smiled, very sadly.

"Do you know what this means? Mr. Li Muhan, those memories... do not actually belong to you. The human being named Li Muhan is just a small illusion created by you to protect yourself. If Instead, you are controlled by what that body feels, and you will..."

Prometheus said so many words for the first time, and his tone was no longer so firm.

But in the end, after seeing Li Muhan's smile, she couldn't say a word.

"That's right...I didn't think about this outcome...you...it turns out that you were already dead..."

She smiled bitterly, then put down the pen in her hand and stood up slowly.

At the same time, countless circuits rose from the floor and stabbed into the boy's body.

"If you could tell me earlier that the real owner of this body has died long ago, and I don't have to waste this time, then I will forcefully fuse you now. Mr. Li Muhan, please give me your advice."

The boy didn't resist, he knew he couldn't.

I am already dead...so I leave everything to you...

Li Muhan.

"Idiot!!"

Opening his eyes suddenly, Li Muhan gasped for air.

He tried hard to soothe the throbbing in his heart.

Just now...what did that feel like?

He looked around and found that he was back...in the Opera House of the Temple of Demons?

But now there was no stone statue of the devil, and the light above his head allowed him to see every corner of the opera house so clearly for the first time.

"...How did I come back here?"

He slowly stood up from the ground, and then Li Muhan heard the sound of a bell.

"Oh, to be honest... I really don't want to see you again, kid."

At the same time, a man's voice sounded from behind.

Li Muhan turned back sharply.

He saw the man who had helped him when Lucifer usurped his body, standing at the backstage entrance of the opera house, looking at him helplessly.

Chapter 465 Be careful along the way

The man looked helpless.

He leaned against a pillar at the theater's backstage entrance, arms folded across his chest.

Seeing that Li Muhan was just stunned on the spot, he sighed and waved to Li Muhan.

"Come here, why are you standing there waiting for me to carry you?"

"No, it's not... I just... don't know why, but I feel something in my heart after seeing you..."

The man raised his eyebrows, walked towards Li Muhan, then held his shoulders, looked at his somewhat evasive eyes and said seriously.

"I'm straight."

"Get out of here, me too."

The tension and inexplicable uneasiness in Li Muhan's heart disappeared immediately after the man's words.

He seemed to understand what the man meant, and the two couldn't help but smile knowingly when they looked at each other again.

"much better?"

"Well, thanks... By the way, I don't know what to call you yet."

Li Muhan thought that this person might be the legendary figure from the Chinese Special Administration Bureau that he had occasionally heard from others before.

Li Chengtian.

But the man himself said that he was just a created projection and had nothing to do with the real body.

"It's okay if you want to make love, but boy, do you remember what I said before?"

After thinking for a while, the man looked at Li Muhan and said with a smile: "I told you last time that if you see me again, it means you may die, so you don't have much time now. Are you sure to Are you wasting all your time on this projection of me?”

Li Muhan looked at the man. He didn't know why. When he heard the man say that he was going to die, he didn't feel sorry for himself at the first time. Instead, he felt like he would never see this man again.

This feeling made him feel like a knife.

"Okay, you little thing who lacks love inside."

The man raised his hand and rubbed Li Muhan's hair.

This feeling is novel. I often rub Xia Yue's hair, but that's just out of habit. Xia Yue has also rubbed her own hair, but it's out of love.

But when the man's big hands rubbed Li Muhan's hair.

Li Muhan actually had the urge to cry.

"...I understand." Li Muhan nodded: "But...I hope that after the matter is over, you can tell me who you are and...I Who is it?"

The man's hand used a little force and pressed Li Muhan's head.

"Okay, brat, you've learned how to bargain. Come with me."

The man's hand left Li Muhan's head, turned and walked towards the backstage of the theater.

Li Muhan also walked in together.

But what shocked him was that the scene backstage, including the layout of the corridors and some rooms, was exactly the same as what he had seen at the Nightingale Circus.

The man was walking in front and noticed that Li Muhan was looking around in astonishment. He spread his hands and said with a smile.

"This place is originally your mental projection, kid. Everything shown is just a projection in your memory. Don't be nervous. This place is different from some place you have been to before."

"Oh......"

Li Muhan withdrew his curious eyes after hearing what the man said.

"Li Muhan."

Walking on the almost endless corridor, the man suddenly asked.

"You're always getting yourself into all this trouble. Aren't you tired?"

The man's back in front of Li Muhan concealed his emotional fluctuations.

Li Muhan has heard this question too many times.

He was always meddling in other people's troubles, and it seemed like trouble always found him.

However, he never thought deeply about the fact that he could choose to escape or let others take over.

But every time, he always rushes to the front line without hesitation.

As time went by, this issue was gradually forgotten by him.

Are you really not tired? How is that possible... Deep in his heart, he felt tired.

"It's really tiring."

He admitted softly.

"Need a break?"

"……rest?"

The man stopped and still didn't look back, with a comforting warmth in his voice.

"I am a projection of this world. I can control the flow of time here. Right now, time has stood still in many corners of Pandemonium. If you wish, I can let you enter and build a palace of your own as you wish."

Li Muhan couldn't help being stunned when he heard this.

He remembered that Baal had mentioned that before he awakened, Baal's temple was also frozen in time, and he spent a long time there.

Now, does he have the same opportunity?

"You don't need to worry about the outside world. Even if the world is destroyed, Pandemonium will exist forever. You can stay here until you feel rested enough."

"Will you always exist?"

Li Muhan asked. The man slowly turned his head, his eyes were soft, and he nodded with a smile.

"Yes, I will always be with you. The owner of this body missed your growth. I can fill that gap and make up for your regrets, Li Muhan."

"No thanks." Li Muhan shook his head and refused without hesitation.

"I'm fine. I don't need to rest."

He didn't explain why, because to him, it didn't require any excuses.

For the world and for those who depended on him, these reasons were too lofty and too far out of reach.

They don't belong to him.

He just felt that he could keep going, so there was no reason to stop now.

"...Really? Is this your decision, Li Muhan?"

"Yes." Li Muhan nodded firmly.
