However, the ability to read minds is still pretty cool.
I just don’t know if there will be a possibility of seeing each other again in the future.
Watching the pink-haired girl gradually walk away, Lin Yi turned around and looked at the collapsed ceiling above.
He could already hear the voices of the special forces soldiers, and he took a step forward, ready to join them.
Then in the next moment, he had to stop and face the other person because of the figure standing up from the rubble not far away.
"Should I say that things won't end so easily?"
Staring at the three-meter-tall, half-melted burning body, Lin Yi shook his head slightly, complaining to himself helplessly.
Chapter 28: Calling Despair~
Pulling out the short-barreled submachine gun, Lin Yi slowly swept his eyes over the enemy in front of him.
Although it was irrational to fight against such an opponent with the strength he possessed now, he obviously had no choice in the current situation. Although he could not see any expression on this guy's face, Lin Yi could feel that this thing would not let him go.
Do you want to attack first?
While thinking, Lin Yi observed the surrounding situation.
He now only has one hand that he can use, and the enemy in front of him can cause serious, irreparable injuries if he gets close to him. If he is not careful, he will be killed on the spot.
A bit hard to top.
No matter how we conceive the tactics, to be honest it's very uncomfortable.
The enemy's moves were not shown at all, and his own situation was even worse. Considering that there were not many places to use in this ruined scene, he even had to be careful not to break the ground and cause the fire gathered in the sixth floor underground to rush up and burn him. It can be said that all kinds of unfavorable factors were basically present, and it was really troublesome to find a way to defeat the enemy without getting hurt.
[Savior...]
In the interval of thinking and hesitation, Lin Yi heard the other party's voice.
It was a voice that rang directly in my mind, in a way that was difficult to understand with common sense.
It seems like it’s the application of some kind of spiritual power?
Lin Yi felt the energy fluctuations transmitted by the sound and roughly determined how the other party achieved this operation.
Then again, it calls me a savior?
"You know the Savior System."
Squinting his eyes, Lin Yi spoke slowly, intending to use the conversation to delay time and try to obtain information.
[Savior... someone who fights for the weak... but will always lend a helping hand only at the last moment of despair...]
In the voice that sounded like a dream talk, it seemed that some emotion was gradually brewing.
[Despair... I am the representative of despair... Only this flame that burns everything... You should not be our enemy... Savior... A savior different from other saviors... You are as angry and desperate as we are... You should not stand against us...]
The murmuring sound not only echoed in the mind, but seemed to echo throughout the body.
Lin Yi realized that what was talking to him at this moment was not this monster, but the fire that resided in this monster, the projection of the terrifying thing called [Fire of Rebirth], and the will manifested by itself.
A will that was just a projection seemed to easily see through something inside him.
"Am I angry? Desperate? Sorry, I don't feel that way. If I have to say something, it's only anger towards you. After all, an entire city's worth of people were wiped out and massacred by you. Facing such an enemy, I do feel disgusted and uncomfortable."
Shrugging and shaking his head slightly, Lin Yi spoke with an indifferent expression.
[No... you are indeed in despair... even if you have forgotten... that despair still has not left you...]
[You are just like us...you are hurt and tortured...you are not recognized...you are the same kind of people who are persecuted and abused...]
[This flame that brings rebirth... should also be your guide... Join us... Savior... Join us...]
Slowly, he stretched out his twisted fingers that were burning with flames.
What is this, a sales pitch?
To be honest, Lin Yi had thought about what the other party would say, but after thinking about it, he really couldn't imagine this situation. A little brother of a super villain who is determined to destroy the world, seeing a superhero running to stop him, his first reaction was to persuade the other party to destroy the world with him?
Is it because the fire on your body has burned your brain?
"I'm really sorry, I really have no interest in joining you. Apart from anything else, I can't accept you just from the aesthetic point of view. You are too ugly."
Feeling that the communication could no longer continue, Lin Yi raised the weapon in his hand, ready to fight.
But unexpectedly again, the monster did not attack because of Lin Yi's actions. Instead, it made some confused sounds, as if it did not quite understand the reason why Lin Yi made such a choice.
[Your despair... and pain... should be the same as ours...]
[You should not reject... the rebirth of the world...]
With a murmur, the tall monster took a step towards Lin Yi.
"I really don't see the point of killing everyone and destroying the world. Instead of thinking about such self-destructive things, I might as well open the food delivery app and order some ramen."
To this, Lin Yi simply answered bluntly.
[Because destruction... is the fire's answer to prayer...]
However, the monster shook his head slightly, and a hint of compassion appeared in the ethereal voice.
[No matter what kind of world it is... there is always beauty... there are always things that deserve praise...]
[But at the same time... there are also people who are tortured and persecuted... there are also people who are trapped in misfortune and cannot escape...]
[The fire of rebirth... is called by them... It speaks for these desperate people... It represents their will... It brings rebirth to the world...]
Slowly, the monster took another step forward.
Some images came into Lin Yi's mind along with the monster's voice.
Emerging from the dim yellow flames were scenes from different worlds.
There was a mother who was starving and freezing in a dilapidated house, hugging her child who had already starved to death and turned into a dried corpse, looking desperate.
There are desperate cries from races that are brutally exterminated and not allowed to exist simply because of slight differences in skin color, language or customs.
There are many more, many more gloomy pictures, the desperate expressions of those who are hurt, tortured, and forced into a desperate situation, no matter whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, no matter what the reason, those who are ultimately trapped in darkness with no way out, and trapped in a nightmare from which they cannot escape.
[There is beauty in this time... and there is misfortune...]
[But those who are oppressed...their voices...are always not allowed to be heard...]
[No matter how civilization progresses... no matter how the world changes... these people's voices... are never allowed to be heard... they are not even allowed to have the power to shout...]
[The fire of rebirth... came down for their prayers... burned the old era... let everything return to chaos... and usher in a new life...]
「This……shouldn’t it also be……your wish……I can hear……you once sided with us……you once recognized us……」
One after another, distorted sounds came from the direction of the monster.
The sound kept echoing, as if trying to stimulate something from Lin Yi's mind.
I once recognized the will of the Fire of Rebirth.
Lin Yi really wanted to say something like "nonsense" as an answer.
But after this sentence entered his mind, he didn't know why he couldn't immediately say anything to refute it.
I was once so deeply in despair that I wanted to call for darkness to destroy the world, and I completely denied the civilization and world I lived in.
Has such a thing really happened?
Why is there no way to immediately give a negative answer to the other party?
It was as if I had actually had such an idea before, and really wanted to do such a thing, as if it really happened, so much so that I couldn't deny it.
The past that existed in his already forgotten past, which he had no way to recall until now, made Lin Yi at this moment suddenly feel confused and fragmented emotions.
[So... you should accept the heavy——]
boom!
The next moment, a sudden gunshot pierced through the monster's body, hitting it and causing it to take a step back. The distorted sound also stopped.
"Interesting power. You seem to be able to dig out emotions that I have forgotten. But you want to shake me with such specious things. Isn't that too contemptuous of me?"
In a cold and somewhat sarcastic voice, Lin Yi aimed the gun in his hand at the monster's head and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Chapter 29: Calculation School
Bang bang bang bang bang——
Gunshots suddenly rang out continuously, and the impact force brought by the bullets collided violently, pushing the monster back a long distance.
The grenade flew forward, and the pull ring rotated between Lin Yi's fingers before falling to the ground. The gun that had emptied its bullets had been thrown away first, and then the shotgun on his back was taken off. Lin Yi held it between his left fingers with one hand, aimed at the tall monster that rushed up in an instant, and pulled the trigger. The next moment, the thing was knocked away with an astonishing impact force, and it half-knelt on the ground.
Lin Yi immediately started running, taking one step onto the pile of rubble that had fallen as the research institute collapsed not far away. He turned suddenly in mid-air, and fired another shot at the moment the monster pounced on him again, knocking it away with a roar.
Fighting with one hand, I have no time to replace bullets and can only fight with the existing weapons.
The opponent is very fast and powerful, and may have unknown moves that have not yet been used. You cannot get close to him, nor can you face him at a medium or long distance without any obstacles. You must be on guard against any possible moves as much as possible...
Gee, that’s really troublesome.
Step down and then jump up again.
The monster came forward again, and a dim flame burst out instantly, but Lin Yi dodged it by rolling down the slope of the ruins.
Bang!
The shotgun blasted loudly, knocking the monster's body flying once again and rolling to the side of the ruins.
Lin Yi in mid-air raised his gun and aimed again, pointing the muzzle at the ceiling above the monster, which was covered with cracks and was about to collapse.
Bang!
Amid the sound of gunfire, the concrete and steel bars that were shattered by the explosion fell downwards.
The monster quickly stood up and was about to rush out, but Lin Yi immediately threw the shotgun in his hand. The solid wooden butt of the gun hit the monster's head, slowing its movements for a moment, and then it was directly buried by a large amount of rubble.
At the same time, Lin Yi quickly ran upwards, jumped along the piled rubble, and landed on the ground on the fourth floor underground.
There were monsters on this floor. Lin Yi remembered it very clearly. He saw a lot of monsters in the surveillance on this floor, and most of them were gathered in the corridor of the rooms on the west side.
I don’t know if I will encounter those things here, and I don’t have time to think about them now.
Lin Yi pulled the ring of a fragmentation bomb and threw it out without even looking behind him. The grenade flew in the air and fell in front of the tall monster that crawled out of the rubble and chased after him, then exploded into countless fragments.
This attack brought a considerable impact force. Regardless of its strength, the monster, whose body was not much different from that of humans, was knocked back a little. However, because the grenade did not contain special engraved power, this attack did not hurt it. It immediately took action to chase Lin Yi again.
Then he was hit by a metal cabinet that rolled down from the upstairs and rolled down again.
As early as when he was downstairs, Lin Yi noticed that there were many lockers in a room with a broken wall upstairs. The first thing he did after going upstairs was to push these lockers out and throw them down, hitting the monster and knocking it down again. Then he half-crouched, untied the assault rifle on his back, held it with one hand, supported the butt with his shoulder, and fired a few bursts at the monster that was crawling up, directly piercing the opponent's head.
[You...reject the fire of rebirth...reject your own despair...]
"Shut up, mother!"
The sound of gunfire and curses simultaneously interrupted the monster's voice. Lin Yi kicked down another large locker and jumped down and stepped on it. He then slid down the rubble on the locker and bumped into the thing, then slammed into a wall in the corridor below.
The monster was pinned against the locker and slammed against the wall. It began to struggle and opened its mouth to spit out flames.
But before that, Lin Yi had already taken a step forward, with the muzzle of the assault rifle almost touching the thing's head. The extended magazine of 60 rounds was emptied in a few seconds, and the thing's head was torn apart on the spot with a roar.
not enough.
This is not enough to kill the opponent.
Lin Yi could sense that the healing speed of the other party's wounds was decreasing, and the energy activity of the whole body was gradually decreasing.
But it was not enough. This level of attack could not completely wipe out the existence of this thing. Although these engraved bullets had the power to damage this thing, compared with the previous monsters, the vitality of this thing had obviously reached a whole new level. Only relying on these low-level special bullets could not play a decisive role.
But it’s about the same.
Click——
Lin Yi thrust the rifle with an empty magazine forward and stabbed it directly into the broken part of the monster's neck, getting stuck in his body and hindering its healing speed.
Lin Yi jumped down from the locker and took out the pistol from his waist.
The eruption of dim yellow flames dissolved the locker the next moment. The twisted object tore apart the gun that Lin Yi had worn around its neck, and then rushed forward again to meet Lin Yi.
[Chaos... is what we are waiting for...]
"As a Dr. Ira who is admired by thousands of people, don't you think this pursuit is a bit too low?"
