This is my revenge!

And right now...

"I can roughly infer what that person (Ling Ke) wants to do."

Mei took another cup of fruit latte, took a sip, looked at Kevin, and then... she looked at Alicia who had just arrived.

She was silent...or rather hesitated for a moment.

He seemed to be considering whether to share information with Alicia.

But, considering what Kevin had revealed to me before...

She finally decided to trust Alicia.

then……

"K-423, according to that person (Ling Ke), this girl was originally going to be recognized by the 'Cocoon of the End' and become the God of Earth over fifty thousand years in the future, through the path paved by our generation and her own transformation."

"But with his (Ling Ke's) arrival and intervention, this seemingly happy-ending future no longer exists."

"And now, since he (Ling Ke), who possesses extraordinary power, wants to restore this point in a 'half-baked' way, then..."

Mei looked at Kevin, "That's actually conveying a message to us in disguise—"

"That is: if you (our) era wants to survive for a long time, you must nip K-423 in the bud."

"Otherwise, the decision-making power will fall into the hands of the so-called 'Current Civilization Era' group."

She spoke out such a cold fact.

Kevin nodded as well.

On the way back, he had already vaguely thought of this.

That person... Ling Ke is forcing people from two different civilizations into complete opposition.

Alicia stood aside, speechless.

Mei continued, "Based on my analysis, since that person (Ling Ke) has already established this rule, it likely means... if we kill K-423 beforehand, we'll have bypassed the most devastating 'Final Battle'."

"On the contrary, if we choose to leave it alone, then... the other personality within K-423 will become a hidden danger that we must consider, like a time bomb."

"To sum up, the benefits of following the 'script' are too great to ignore, while the costs of doing so are also too great to ignore."

"We actually have no choice."

"Because from the beginning to the end, it was Mei Raiden who had to make the cruelest choice, not us."

"She will be caught in a dilemma after we decide to target K-423."

Should he ignore K-423's dangerous situation and completely collapse internally, or should he do everything he can to protect her and ultimately... become a heartless monster himself (the Herrscher of this era)?

"No matter what, she has been forced onto the trial stand and there is no hope for her anymore."

"Next, we just have to wait for half a year to expire..."

Mei didn't say anything more.

She has made the most calm analysis.

At this moment……

"Ah~"

Alicia sighed.

Now, she has fully understood this cruel reality.

If one side wants to survive, it must completely take away the other side's hope.

There is no room for maneuver.

aside...

"..."

Kevin didn't know how to persuade his comrade.

He should be the first person to recognize this fact.

Although he felt extremely regretful about this, he had already seen the truth.

But for others, when this cruel truth is laid out in plain sight...

"Should I tell other people about this?"

In the end, he only asked Mei this question.

And hearing this...

"Tell that to Gray Snake and Mebius."

Mei replied, "Aside from the blocked Twilight Street, Su, and the people we're about to meet, Eden, Kosmo, Hua... and 'you,' they might not be able to accept what we just saw."

"Verbal explanations seem insignificant at a time like this."

"Based on what you told me about their personalities..."

"Perhaps, we can only wait for them to come into contact with it themselves and then judge for themselves."

"We don't actually have the power to judge for them."

Having said this, she turned to look at the pink-haired girl beside her, "Well, Alicia, you now understand everything..."

"What's your answer?"

Hearing this...

"I……"

Alicia opened her mouth.

She recalled the shattered look on Mei Raiden's face when she last saw her.

Feeling distressed?

Perhaps there is a bit of compassion at work.

But as mentioned before, she is not familiar with the other party now.

Moreover, after understanding the whole process...

In fact, she felt more sorry for the black-haired young man named "Ling Ke".

No one is willing to have their kindness let down.

Even she might cry...

Not to mention, he was persecuted because of this and fell into a dark hell and abyss for several years.

Alicia asked herself, if she had not met the gentle, considerate and understanding mother Celia when she first came into the world, but had... the same experience as Ling Ke.

Will she still be willing to believe in humans like she does now, or even want to become a real human being, and then firmly recognize the so-called "beauty" and "hope"?

this moment……

"Could he... be considered the Herrscher of Man from more than fifty thousand years from now?"

Ai Lishia made this guess with a double meaning.

Volume 2: Chapter 77 "Snake" and "Rabbit"

Will Ling Ke be the "ruler of humanity" of the next era?

Alicia's guess was obviously based on the fact that she had never seen that "non-existent memory", so she spoke it subconsciously.

Kevin, who had personally witnessed that "non-existent memory" and had been indirectly reminded by the ascended Su "not to become an enemy of Ling Ke", naturally knew very well...

For human civilization on Earth, Lingke actually has a similar origin to the "Cocoon of the End".

In fact, its status is higher than that of the "Cocoon of the End".

and so……

"Don't think too much, Alicia."

Kevin spoke up and reminded her directly, "He and you... no, you and Him are not the same."

In just a few short sentences, Alicia could hear the subtle difference in Kevin's tone.

At that moment, she forced a smile and nodded.

But he did not continue to answer the question that Mei had just raised.

Mei certainly saw this too.

She also tacitly didn't mention it again.

Because, as she said before: No one here is qualified to make decisions for others.

After all, what the New World Snake has to do next is to extinguish the hopes of others with his own hands in exchange for his own long-term future.

In this kind of situation, if the person involved is not determined to go down this path, then anyone who is forced onto the chariot will easily cause big problems at a critical moment.

in this way……

"We'll be busy from now on."

Mei changed the subject.

She first looked at the white-haired young man (?) not far away, "Kevin, you go to North America first to contact Kosmo and Desdobia."

Kevin nodded, "Okay!"

She looked at the pink-haired girl on the sofa next to her and said, "Alicea, go contact Eden... I remember you two knew each other a long time ago."

"Hmm~"

Alicia nodded, knowing that Mei was referring to "future intelligence," and immediately said with a smile, "Leave it to me."

Mei chuckled softly, then continued, "Currently, Dusk Street and its surrounding areas are likely blocked by that person (Ling Ke). The reason is unknown."

"So, Aponia, Qianjie, and Padufilis... these three Fire Chasers, we can't contact them for the time being."

"But precisely because it was "He" who blocked off Dusk Street, we don't need to worry about the safety of the three of them for the time being."

Obviously, she was very wise and tried her best to avoid standing against Ling Ke.

And to some extent, she has great "confidence" in Ling Ke.

So, on this basis...

"Grace, her mother, Ms. Blanca, and her father, Mr. Hen, can ask Dr. Mebius to try to contact them."

"Of course, at this stage, it's best not to put this huge pressure, such as what we discussed today, on a single child."

Mei said calmly, "But considering our subsequent actions, we'll sooner or later face a direct confrontation with the Fire Moth. We should first notify the three of them...at least both of Grace's parents."

"After this, when Dr. Mobius deems it unnecessary to stay in the Fire Moth any longer, he will take the three of you away from there."

"Finally, only Wei Erwei, Ying, and Hua are left among the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire..."

Mei took another sip of her fruit latte and continued, "According to intelligence, Weiwei is currently being held captive on the isolated island of P-21, which is also the future construction site of the 'Deepest Place'..."

Alicia suddenly raised her hand like a student and said, "You can give this to me, too."

"However, I feel that the timing of the contact needs to be switched around."

"Although I also want to see my good Eden again soon, the situation over there is relatively stable, but Weiwei..."

Alicia said with some concern: "If it takes too long, she might be in danger."

"After all, because of some things she did privately before, she is now a criminal identified by the Fire Moth."

Alicia's expression was a little strange. "I caught him not long ago."

Mei nodded.

From the information provided by Kevin, it was learned that all matters related to Velvet were previously handled by Alicia, who had not yet left the Fire Moth.

She really knows all about these things.

But after bringing Velvi here... Well, with Alicia here, and Kevin and I keeping things under control, I seem to be able to feel a little more at ease.

To put it bluntly, it was Wei Erwei's talent that made it worthwhile for us to take the risks she might bring about.

So……
