I'm not Yingjie

Sitting on the clouds.

There are many people bustling about under my feet.

Warm sandy beach.

Laughing people.

Why... is it always so out of reach...

Lin looked at the Fifth Herrscher who was struggling to survive like him. The familiar face and the unfamiliar face gradually became blurred under the light of the fireflies.

"Anna...Lin..."

I can't tell whether it's an illusion or what the Herrscher said.

A rustling sound reached his ears, and Lin felt that the Fifth Herrscher who had fallen to the ground was crawling towards him, approaching him slowly, weakly, and with deadly coldness.

Lin stood still and let the Ice Death come to his side, and then pressed his body, which was colder than ice, on top of his.

He gently pressed two hands on his helmet, trying to take it off, but was stopped by the buckles.

After a long period of groping, she found the helmet buckle, unfastened it clumsily, and then pulled the helmet off Lin's head.

The blood-stained hair was frozen into ice in the cold air, and his left eye, which was about to close at any time, stared at the Fifth Herrscher.

After a long time, the Fifth Herrscher stretched out his hand and strangled his neck.

"Lin..." She was still muttering softly.

And after hearing what she said, Lin's left eye slowly widened.

"Oh!"

A stream of blood spurted out from the Fifth Herrscher's chest and landed on Lin's cheek.

It was not frozen into ice crystals by the cold, but had the normal human heat, emitting hot air and rising on Lin's face.

He watched as the Fifth Herrscher's eyes gradually lost their luster, but at the last moment he looked at him, and then his hands still reached out to his lower body.

"Snapped."

His fingers gently slid across Lin's cheek, as warm as the spring breeze in March.

The Fifth Herrscher fell on top of him, and under his gaze, the eyes that once gave the children warmth slowly closed and fell asleep quietly.

"Lin! Are you okay?"

Alicia's voice was heard in the distance, and she came to Lin's side and hurriedly helped him up from the ground.

White smoke was still coming out of the muzzle of the gun behind her, indicating that she had just shot and killed the Fifth Herrscher.

Alicia injected an injection of unknown medicine into Lin's body. He let Alicia support him and knelt on one leg on the ground.

Alicia checked the horrible injuries on Lin's body. His right eye and right leg had completely disappeared, lines of erosion by the Honkai energy were entangled on his body, and his scattered left eye could not focus at all.

But Lin is still alive, even though he is now no different from a dead person.

"This is Alicia. The fifth Herrscher has been confirmed dead."

Lin's right eye, which could not see anything, looked at the Fifth Herrscher lying on the ground, blood still flowing.

She was no longer cold and turned back into the nun girl named Binet, just sleeping quietly.

The cold cloud that had been hanging over Tran dissipated.

Children hugged each other while waiting for their families.

Chapter 14: The Reappearance of the Conspiracy

Every time Mei wanted to pry information out of these heroes, it was very difficult. She felt like an elementary school student who had not grown up in decades. She had to deal with guys who didn't speak human language all day long, deduce the information she wanted, and then go to Alicia to verify whether it was correct.

The only consolation is that at least Alicia never asks riddles when Mei asks for evidence.

Mobius is somewhere between telling in riddles and not telling in riddles. She sometimes puts on airs so that Mei can immediately understand what she wants to express, but she may also suddenly lose her temper and send people away with just two sentences.

But there is one thing that Mei and everyone else firmly believe in.

If you want to get something from Mebius, you must first agree to her experiments that are more horrible than creating Frankenstein.

"Where are we going?" Mei asked as she followed behind Mebius, looking at her figure sitting on the strange device and the increasingly gloomy environment.

"Don't you want to know who knows the three conditions?" Mobius raised his lips and smiled. "It's very simple. Just ask him and you'll know."

"..."

"What's with that expression on your face? Do I think I'm a guy like Qianjie who has a brain as smooth and solid as the back of his fist?" Mebius snorted coldly, "Of course I'm not asking you to ask the man himself. That guy with a mouth harder than a rock is, as Alicia said, a dead tsundere. You won't get any answer from him if you try to ask him using normal methods."

"Wait a minute, you don't mean to..." Mei looked at Mobius hesitantly. She seemed to have guessed who the "person" Mobius was talking about was.

And Mebius replied as she expected: "Haha, it seems you have already met him."

Is it really the murderous "Lin"?

Although it was only a very brief meeting and fight, the silent but deadly "Lin" still left a deep impression on her. And based on the impression alone, that "Lin" seemed to be a unconscious puppet who only listened to Lin's words.

"That 'person' doesn't seem to have the wisdom to answer questions." Mei asked Mobius with a skeptical attitude.

Mobius, who was walking in front, gave a barely perceptible evil smile: "That's just because you didn't have enough strength to ask him to answer. He is a supercomputer. Apart from Lin who has the ultimate authority, only some elites who have been reviewed and obtained authority can command him."

"Partially... So that authority review is 'strength'? Because not everyone can defeat him, so not everyone can order him around."

"That's right, so it's easy for you to get the authority. Of course, if you can't defeat him the second time, then I really can't do anything~"

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about that." Mei, who had experienced Lin's own training, naturally would not be afraid of this supercomputer. "As for your experiment, aren't you afraid that I will go back on my word and not agree after it's done?"

"Oh, Herrscher sister, why are you so mean? I never thought you would deceive me like this~" Mebius turned his head with tears in his eyes, sobbing while wiping his tears.

……

"'Super computer'...hahahaha..."

Alicia rolled on the ground laughing. Lin looked at her coldly, and after staring at her for a long time, she stood up from the ground awkwardly.

“Ahem… puff… hahahaha…” Alicia wanted to be serious at first, but she couldn’t help laughing as soon as she opened her mouth. She patted Lin’s shoulder vigorously and said, “Our dear Dr. Mobius is really good at joking. I think I should take out the “One Hundred Episodes of Paradise Jokes” that I didn’t finish last time and continue writing it~”

"..."

"But then again, it seems quite appropriate to describe it as a 'supercomputer', but it's just too funny to see Mebius talking nonsense with a serious face." Alicia couldn't help laughing and said to Lin, "By the way, Lin, aren't you going to stop them this time?"

"…It doesn't matter. Now Raiden Mei has to solve my problem. Even if she can win, it won't do her any good."

After all, this was the game set by Mobius, and it made no difference whether Raiden Mei won or lost.

"What about Mobius? Lin, do you really believe that Mei can beat Mobius? Although I think so too!"

"Mobius will know his limits." Lin shook his head.

……

"We're here. The problem with the Paradise is that Klein is managing it. Last time she said that there was an error in the Paradise that connected this channel to other anchor points, causing it to appear when it shouldn't be there." Mebius stood in front of a wooden door in front of him, turned his head and said to Mei, who had been skeptical all the way, "This is what it really looks like."

This plain-looking wooden door is the anchor?

To be honest, if it weren't for the stairs they encountered last time, Mei really wouldn't believe Mebius.

But every time there was something related to Lin, it was rather strange, so this time she believed it halfway, and the other half would have to wait until she went in to verify it.

"By the way, this is my gift. Just in case, please accept my blessing."

Mobius suddenly gave all the [Infinite] engraving power to Mei at once, and Mei didn't say much. She just looked at the smiling Mobius, accepted the "gift", and reached out to open the door.

"Whoosh-"

After the world spun around, Mei was already standing in a familiar place, that empty and sad space where it was raining. There was nothing in it except for a distant figure sitting on the ground, with a black and a white spear and a lance placed beside him.

What was different from the weirdness of the last time was that this time, "Lin" was surrounded by a solemn and murderous atmosphere. When Mei was watching him, he silently stood up, pulled out two guns, and then put the two guns into one in front of Mei.

"Click."

The complete form of the Black Abyss and White Flower, the Key of God is only complete when the White Flower with the power of creation and the Black Abyss with the power of decomposition are combined together.

Under Mei's puzzled gaze, "Lin" did not hold the Black Abyss White Flower after reappearing it, but waved it casually, letting it disappear into the void.

He wasn't going to use a weapon?

Then, Mei understood why he didn't use it.

A giant sword burning with flames appeared in his hand. The terrifying destructive power made the surrounding space unstable, and Mei's face changed.

Heavenly Fire...Holy Judgment?

Before Mei could figure out what was going on, the strange armor on Lin's body suddenly turned red under the rendering of the Holy Judgement of Heavenly Fire!

I'm still feeling bad today, sorry

Chapter 15 Lin's Regretful Youth

"It's finally warm."

The girl sat on a mat, drinking hot water from the cup in small sips, her gorgeous sapphire eyes gazing at the snow piles melting in the spring breeze outside the window.

This unprecedented cold winter disappeared without a trace as if it was suddenly cut off by someone. It only took about a day for the temperature to go from the lowest in history to normal. This huge temperature change caused many people to get sick in this season, but she had been hiding in this house and was safe and sound.

After the temperature warmed up, she wanted to leave here for a while. After all, even cats know when to stop stealing food. If she stayed here any longer, it would be bad if something bad happened to her.

Being able to survive in this Dusk Street until now, the girl can be said to be able to get along with everyone, be flexible and adaptable, and be content with what she has.

But the words of the man last time were still fresh in her mind. If she didn't do what he said, would she get into more trouble? She didn't know if her "background" could scare him...

"Oh...really, I'll leave when the boy in the photo comes back!" The girl hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to go through with this matter.

Just think of it as your reward for that person finding out that you stole things and lived in his house but didn't arrest you!

When the girl thought of this, she felt much more at ease. After all, it’s not bad to do good things occasionally.

"By the way, when will he come here..."

"Clap."

“Meow—”

The door was pushed open abruptly. After a month of eating and drinking well here, the girl, who had gained a lot of weight but also had a lowered vigilance, jumped up with a startle.

I saw a man sitting in a wheelchair with his face wrapped coming in, pushing the wheels of the wheelchair.

"..." The girl looked at him nervously. If he planned to catch her, she would run away immediately.

But the man came in and closed the door as if he didn't see the girl. Then he started pushing his wheelchair around the room and didn't even look at her when he passed by her.

What do you mean? Who is he? Isn't he the same man from last time?

The girl noticed that the person sitting in the wheelchair was missing his right leg, so it couldn't be the man from last time.

"Let me be clear first. I'm living here because someone asked me to. I'm waiting for someone. Are you that person?" The girl followed him and watched him slowly push the wheelchair as it creaked on the wooden floor, like an old man returning to his hometown. A distant breath emanated from him.

But looking at the skin on his hands, he looks very young, he shouldn't be an old man.

"Yeah, I know." At this time the man suddenly turned his head and said to the air around him.

There was a steadiness in his voice that was not in keeping with his age.

The girl heaved a long sigh: "Huh, it's good that you know... My name is..."

The man continued: "Maybe, but I can't cook now."

"Eh? There's food, no need..."

"It's okay. I have a change of clothes."

"..."

The girl tilted her head and looked at the man who was talking to himself in an empty place.

Who is he talking to?

……

"The task you assigned to me is completed, and the thing that man asked me to do is also completed. Now it's time for you to fulfill your agreement."

Sakura had been waiting in the deepest place for a long time. When Mei and Kevin appeared here together, she stood up, her long hair no longer fluttering like last time.
