I am the savior, but I am being asked by Alicia and the others to pay me back.

Incomprehensible sounds and images, an unstoppable intrusion of information, and... the possible existence of another consciousness.

"If the appearance of that thing is not a coincidence, if it wants to do something to me, it is obviously abnormal to disappear for such a long time."

"Within the restraining barrier, this should have been a good opportunity to attack, but the other party remained silent. This unpredictable behavior makes me very uneasy."

——If so, there are three possibilities.

——Or the other party doesn’t intend to do anything to you.

——Either it was a subjective mistake or it had other plans.

——Or…

"Why can't it do that?"

What the system thought was also what Ye Ming planned, and both of them thought of these possibilities.

——It seems that I am unable to go beyond your thinking scope and cannot help you.

"No, you have already helped me eliminate one possibility."

"From the beginning to the end, I have no evidence that the other 'person' I suspected actually existed."

"But your acquiescence has given me the answer."

——…

While the system was silent, one could still hear her sigh with a hint of chill.

——Ye Ming, sometimes, you are so smart that it scares me.

･･･････

Back to the present, 380,000 kilometers away from the moon, dark purple runes cover the earth, making this aqua blue planet dim and difficult to distinguish.

Mountains, oceans, rivers, cities, everything is immersed in darkness and silence, like a baby sleeping in its mother's arms.

“Lilia ahh ...

The original atmosphere was so deep and silent, but in the next second, the girl's scream almost made Alicia throw away her headphones.

In order to prevent herself from suffering similar injuries again, she simply covered the back of her ears with the earphones.

"Rosalia, what's wrong?"

Lilia poked her head in from the door, with a little cream stuck on the tip of her nose.

Rosalia and Lilia, the cherry pink girl and the cyan blue girl stood opposite each other, looking symmetrical.

After all, even the tails and horns they grew from the injection of Honkai energy are a symmetrical pair.

"Oh no! It's terrible! Something terrible is happening!"

"The last time you said something was wrong was when you got your hand stuck in a cookie jar and couldn't get it out. The time before that was when your bubble gum got stuck in your hair. And the time before that was when you ate too many Hoo-hum Pop-Rolls in one go and rolled on the ground."

As they said, these two funny guys usually only appear in funny plots and basically never appear in the main storyline.

So the audience didn't expect to see them at this time.

[It feels like I haven’t seen these two little ones for a long time]

[These two funny guys made me laugh to death]

"If you don't want our dinner to turn from cream cake to tar cake, you'd better not make things worse."

"This time is different, Lilia, we are being attacked!"

"Attack? What attack? By whom, and where?"

"what?"

Rosalia looked around. In front of her was a sunny bedroom and the aroma of desserts wafted from the kitchen.

She seemed to just realize where she was, and confusion gradually appeared in her eyes.

"What happened? I clearly remember that we sneaked out just now and were surrounded by many Honkai beasts."

"What nonsense are you talking about, isn't that what the movie we are filming is about?"

859.Remember No Russian

"Hmm? Um... Oh~! That's right!"

Rosalia thought for a long time before she said happily:

"The twentieth film starring the Vodka Girl!"

【? ? ? ? 】

【Something is wrong】

Vodka Girls was a name made up by these two idiots who wanted to be idols. They didn't even have a chance to make a formal debut, but here they were starring in twenty movies.

At first, the audience wondered if they had missed something in the plot, but later they realized that the atmosphere was a bit weird.

"Oh, right, the movie, then there's nothing to worry about, Lilia, let's go out and play~~"

"But...what about the cake?"

"It's okay, mom will help us do well in the exam!"

Didn’t their mother die a long time ago?

[Could it be referring to the adoptive mother Cocolia? 】

[Cocolia is also in prison]

The two funny ones didn't care about the flaw in the "setting". The scene changed and they were already playing happily beside the beach.

Time slipped away quietly while we were having fun. The sunset dyed the sea surface the color of orange jam. Under the reflection of the setting sun...

Their tails were connected together like a pin and a socket, and they were running and jumping carefree on the beach again.

"Hehe, everything is fun when I am with Lilia."

"But I always feel like I forgot something."

"What on earth... is it?"

The originally cheerful BGM became distorted due to the variation, and the picture was like an old-fashioned TV that had lost its signal, full of gray snowy noise.

Then, the scene quickly flashed through different lives.

People who have never seen the sea are running happily on the beach.

A dying person lying on a hospital bed is skiing happily on the snowy mountain.

The poor people living in the basement are spending a lot of money in the casino.

The girl had forgotten the news of her mother's death and was hugging her imaginary mother intimately, talking to her about her upcoming wedding.

Artists who are not understood are shining brightly in the path they choose.

[This is... the dream of the Stigmata Project]

[It seems pretty good]

Different souls, similar visions. Different faces, similar dreams.

Life, wealth, emotions, honor, dreams... these most simple human desires reflect each other and form a complete spiritual Adam.

There, eternal dreams promised eternal time to mankind.

"Wow, it really just took a blink of an eye for us to return from the moon."

Unlike the comfort in dreams, when Kiana and the others returned to Earth from the star gate, they felt like warriors going to battle.

They are currently in Haiyuan City. Because of the power of the Quantum Sea, they will not be swallowed by the Stigmata Plan for the time being, but they will not be able to hold out for too long.

So, the seven of them immediately made a decision to split up and conduct a full-scale exploration.

"By the way, the Herrscher of Knowledge said..."

Before setting off, Fu Hua felt the intention of the Herrscher of Consciousness in her mind and reminded everyone:

"Although this place is already more than 6,000 meters under the sea, she still hopes to find a relatively high position so as to identify more clues."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Herrscher of Knowledge jumped out:

"Alright, alright! You old-fashioned guy, you don't have to tell them everything you want to say, right?"

"Ahem, in short, you must remember that all of this, in the final analysis, comes from the benefits brought to you by the great Lady Herrscher of Knowledge."

"I am not seeking fame or profit - but you must remember that the benefits I give you are what others cannot give you even if they want to. Do you understand?"

Kiana cooperated very well and flattered Shibao, and then the group began to think of ways to get to a higher place.

With Bronya's active efforts, the damaged elevator was repaired by the power of truth, and the group began to slowly climb.

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere suddenly became very quiet, as if one was taking a very long elevator ride.

Seeing this scene, Ye Ming suddenly had an urge to complain, but he felt it was inappropriate and held it back.

Instead, Bronya understood and said:

"Remember No Russian?"

Hearing this, Ye Ming's eyes lit up.

"How do you know what I'm thinking?"

"Because I thought of that, too."

"Really? I thought that game... at least that level, was banned in your place."

"That level was indeed banned, but I cracked it while playing the game, and I don't have any special feelings about it."

Seeing everyone's curious faces, Bronya explained briefly:

"It's just a group of people preparing for battle in an elevator, ready to kill people. The calm before the storm is somewhat similar to the atmosphere in the game."

Since they were already used to the encrypted conversations between the two, no one else asked any more questions.

But Jizi pulled Kiana to her side and muttered softly:

"Aren't you also playing games with Bronya all day? How come you can't get a word in when she and Ye Ming are flirting with each other?"

It was like a remake of "Other people's kids can get 100 points, why can't you?"

"Wow... I don't know either. Obviously, when we played together, we never saw the game they were talking about."

Kiana also felt aggrieved. Ever since she lost Himeko, she has been regretting why she didn't work harder before.

This was the first time she felt regret for "not playing the game well".

However, of course no one in the game would think of the game meme. In the silence, Xier asked curiously:

"Kevin, what kind of person is he?"

After all, the two had met once before in the Quantum Sea.

"Indeed, to you, he has almost only shown this face of the enemy, but..."

Before Fu Hua could finish her words, Xiao Zhi interrupted:

"Hey, I knew you, an old fogey, would start speaking well of other old fogeys again."

[So Yingjie is an old antique?]

[Is it Alicia too? 】

"That's not true."

Alicia decisively gave a negative answer and even closed the barrage for a while, as if she cared a lot about this matter.

In the game, Xiao Shi still sneered at the old antiques' way of communication.

"If you had my ability to express yourself directly, how could things have ended up like this?"

"If we can't reach an agreement in one negotiation, we can always negotiate a few more times. Kevin should come to Shenzhou more often to experience what peace is all about."
