Starting with the Herrscher, mowing down enemies without equal.

"Kevin is really amazing."

Kosmo sighed softly, his voice a mixture of exhaustion and admiration.

But in a sense, this world is indeed fortunate, because many weak people even have the mindset and the right to sympathize with the strong.

This is a very rare survival situation.

Under slightly harsher rules, anyone with a modicum of rationality must understand one thing: the weak are unworthy and unworthy to trust the strong. Without the guarantee of rules, every act of trust is irresponsible towards one's own life.

"Alicia will succeed."

Desdovia sat to the side, hugging her legs, full of anticipation.

Therefore, many people are genuinely looking forward to Alicia's future.

After training, most of the group rested. Kevin grabbed a few bottles of water and tossed them to the others, then gulped them down.

"An Yu, this time, it's my turn to win!"

Kevin now felt he could finally pop the champagne, since the Herrscher of Knowledge hadn't really played a significant role in the original storyline.

It even abandoned its original companion beast due to arrogance, and was eventually merged with Su, who then locked onto the other party's location.

Because of his arrogance, he tried to hypnotize the whole world, but after Aponia awakened, he burst the bubble of illusion with a single sentence.

The Lawbringer of Knowledge has a sequence number of 8. How can he manipulate the Earth?

"You're really confident."

A faint sound, mixed with the voices of a boy and a girl, echoed in my ears.

An Yu?!

The ice crystal greatsword quickly condensed, and the entire training ground was instantly frozen. Kevin looked around, but because the fusion warriors' training was so expansive, there were no other passersby around.

"Senior Kevin?"

"Kevin!"

Kosmo and Hen called out each other's names loudly, while most of the other fusion warriors gathered together, since Kevin's punches really hurt, and no one wanted to get hit for no reason.

Kevin slowly came to his senses, his coldness slightly subsiding: "Sorry, I didn't sleep well last night, so I'm a little dazed."

He laughed heartily and prepared to go find his external brain.

Of course, Kevin wasn't stupid, but he felt that compared to May, he was indeed somewhat lacking, as if he had no intelligence at all.

"Disband, everyone."

As usual, Kevin disappeared from everyone's sight and immediately turned into a blur, running wildly to the office where Mei was.

He brushed past Dr. Einstein in the corridor, exchanged a casual greeting, and didn't dare to linger.

Er Mei's office was as clean and tidy as ever. The young girl looked up again, her eyes like stars.

"Mei, I think I've been influenced by An Yu."

Si Kaiwen's voice carried a hint of urgency that he himself was unaware of.

"Mei? Are you calling me? Kevin—"

Dead Plum crossed her arms and rested her chin on them. Before doing so, she also picked up the glasses of the uncorrected person next to her and examined them with an unfamiliar gaze.

Kevin's world collapsed; his office was quickly frozen over.

He drew his sword, his expression resolute and determined. However, what he saw was Mei's face, which turned deathly pale in an instant, filled with panic yet forced composure.

"Kevin, Kevin!!!"

Mei's voice rose in fear.

Seeing the panic in Mei's eyes, Kevin hesitated before putting down the ice crystal greatsword.

He asked, "Are you alright?"

Mei shivered, but still calmly came over to comfort Kevin.

If something happens to Kevin, she definitely won't survive either.

"I..." Kevin hesitated, then sat down on the floor in despair, the ice crystals quickly melting away.

"I think something's happened to me, Mei."

Oh no! After talking so arrogantly for so long, it turns out that it was himself who was confident all along. Kevin doesn't even know when he was influenced.

"Don't rush, tell me slowly, it's possible that something happened to me."

Mei took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and walked over to Kevin to comfort him.

I also called Einstein, who is now gone, and asked him to help me find out what happened before the surveillance footage was damaged.

Kevin lowered his eyes, hoping for an answer. Perhaps, Mei really had been influenced.

Einstein's voice, calm to the point of cruelty, came from the other end of the communicator: "May, be careful of Kevin."

"He had the intention to draw his sword and attack you as soon as he entered the room. It's very likely that the Herrscher's abilities came into play."

Kevin, who was eavesdropping nearby: (?í_ì?)

Mei remained silent for a while.

"understood."

After hanging up the phone, she faced Kevin, her face flushed from the cold, but Mei calmly told him, "Don't worry, you and Alicia are so composed, you must have a backup plan."

Kevin's eyes lit up. "Oh, right, Aponia has an unparalleled natural restraint on the meme pollution of the law of knowledge."

So what if An Yu affects me? It doesn't matter!!!

After watching Kevin leave, May confirmed that the drawer couldn't be opened. She took the documents with her, calmly walked out the door, and then steadily walked to the nearby infirmary.

It’s so cold!

Kevin, go home and kneel on durians!!!

The matter hadn't stopped yet. Mei was in the infirmary, in an incredibly warm environment, processing documents.

About half an hour had passed when it became noisy outside. The familiar frost spread into the infirmary, and Mei hurriedly walked out of the infirmary.

Kevin held the ice crystal greatsword, his expression one of utter bewilderment. The passing staff all huddled together, and upon seeing Mei appear, they quickly shrank to this side.

"Make a note of everyone here, and observe them separately for the time being."

Mei calmly issued the order, her voice leaving no room for doubt.

Kevin's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.

"It was Kevin who attacked us without any reason, Dr. May."

Someone was muttering something under their breath, their tone somewhat mournful.

"Make a close note of the person who spoke."

Mei shivered from the cold again; she felt like she was really going to catch a cold.

"It has nothing to do with them."

Kevin never raised his arm again; he hung his head dejectedly, as if he had completely lost faith in his intuition.

"Now is not the time to be soft-hearted."

Mei remained unchanged in her stance: all potential dangers must be eliminated.

"Privately notify Dr. Einstein and have her check the corridor surveillance footage from this period, and then investigate all dangerous individuals who have recently been in contact with everyone present."

The sn commands were executed swiftly one by one. Although Kevin wanted to defend others, he chose to believe Mei because of her confidence.

The orders were carried out one by one. Kevin sat in the sunset, letting the sunlight gradually fade away from him.

6. Until Mei, wearing a thick down jacket, sat down next to him.

"You should believe in yourself. After all, your initial composure and Alicia's composure must have been due to some kind of strategy."

Kevin managed a forced smile.

Hedgehog Volume 1: Chapter 182, Page 180: Aponia: I suspect we've hired a traitor.

4. Kevin tried to cheer himself up.

Zhemei wasn't hospitalized. She bought dinner from outside. Let's just get through today. Maybe we'll have the results of tomorrow's investigation.

Tomorrow should be better.

That very night, Mei was admitted to the hospital. Despite Kevin's efforts to stop, the extreme cold still caused Mei to suffer frostbite all over her body.

Kevin eventually locked himself in the deepest place.

He absolutely refused to believe that a mere Lawyer could completely break through Kevin's mental defenses!

The Herrscher couldn't break through to the deepest level, since An Yu had no intention of going there at all; Kevin could just play around there by himself.

There is.

There's no one openly known as the "Moth that Chases Fire."

With only Aponia remaining as the sole solution, I watched all of this unfold with a sense of bewilderment.

Kevin is just fine! She helplessly touched the threads of fate, and although she could hardly move them, she could still feel the fate of others.

Kevin is definitely fine!

deepest place

"So, it really is my problem?"

Kevin sat in the deepest part of the room, surrounded by chains and shackles. He flipped through yesterday's investigation report, while the others in the corridor chatted and laughed, until he drew his ice crystal greatsword.

He smiled wryly, thinking to himself, "When did this person start affecting me?"

We really shouldn't underestimate them.

Spiral Workshop

Lecturer Wilvi stood there dumbfounded; she and An Yu hadn't been apart at all during this time.

"When did you influence Kevin?"

It drove Kevin to depression, and he went into a deep abyss.

An Yu blinked: "Probably when I decided to fight Alicia."

Which specific time point?

Swoosh Wilvi quickly racked her brains. It couldn't possibly be the last few months. Kevin's movements these past few months had been a straight line between three points: home, May's office, and the training ground.

Sodedes and Dobiya?

It was she who initially exposed An Yu's information, but that's impossible. If a Herrscher could indirectly influence and manipulate Kevin through others, that would be too outrageous.

"How old are you this year?" Velvi asked hesitantly, posing a seemingly unrelated question.

She could only guess in this direction—perhaps the effects started much earlier, earlier than she could have imagined. She could have guessed it was a mass hallucination, but the surveillance footage wouldn't lie.

Einstein's recent movements are even simpler, making it impossible for him to have come into contact with the Lawyer.

Furthermore, Kevin and May... no, May and Kevin are classmates, so they should also be ruled out as trustworthy candidates.

Nine "Secret~"

An Yu raised a finger and placed it to her lips, smiling meaningfully.

7. "Is a boy's age also a secret?"

8. "After all, secrets make men more mysterious, don't they?"

Ling Weierwei hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself. She had been having pleasant conversations with An Yu lately, and An Yu hadn't held back, saying whatever came to mind.

Boom boom boom!

"Ms. Vilvi, an emergency high-level meeting is about to begin."

Velvi looked at An Yu beside her, and An Yu shrugged: "Don't worry about me, Miss Velvi, please do as you please."

[Message Board]

Lecturer: "We guessed wrong, we all guessed wrong!"

An Yu: "There are only two players?"
