Sporadic resistance was unfolding in the Second Upper Capital.
The city was already a sea of fire, and the mutation had spread throughout the city like a deadly virus.
"Those spores!" Senior Sister [Yulia] shouted in a deep voice.
Millie hurriedly opened the mask of her protective suit.
"You guys stay here!"
At that moment, Méchy had landed on Kerlot and put the two on the roof of a building. Then, without saying anything, she drove Kerlot toward that terrible tree of flesh.
Millie subconsciously glanced at Yu Liya beside her and frowned. Then, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll try to contact the other survivors, as well as the base of the most important city, and ask for help."
Senior Yu Liya, however, stared at the tree of flesh … or rather, the tree of flesh. "Can't the school's defense system work?" she asked in a low voice.
"Distant water puts out nearby fire." Millie shook her head. "Besides, there aren't enough students to control such a situation … I hope Miss Méchy can successfully destroy it!"
— I don't think so.
Senior Yu Liya didn't say that out loud. Although she couldn't precisely discern the strength of the Progenitor of Void like Medanzo could, she could only vaguely sense it, and the extent of her perception was that it was strong, very strong, as strong as fried chicken.
The tree of flesh in front of her already gave her the feeling that … it was very strong!
The eyeball-shaped emissary that appeared in the hundredth impact wasn't the Progenitor of Void, but just a Primordial Void Demon that was about to reach its growth limit. Méchy had almost been drilled to death, and now, facing the even stronger Progenitor of Void, she clearly didn't have much of a chance of winning.
"Can't [Cang Lei] activate the code?" Senior Yu Liya asked quickly again.
If [Cang Lei] could once again display the power it had when it knocked down the eyeball-shaped emissary, it should be enough to deal with the powerful Progenitor of Void together with [Kerlot], herself, and the unreliable senior Eleventh.
"I don't know." Mi Lei smiled bitterly. "Ever since the headmaster took back the control of Cang Lei from the student council, Cang Lei is no longer under the student council's control."
"Calvin again!" [Yu Liya] sneered. Then, she took a deep breath and said, "I need weapons, lots and lots of weapons. The more powerful, the better! Most of the streets in this city should have defensive systems. Do you know where the most of them are? "
"You plan to start it manually?" Mi Lei exclaimed, "Impossible! Without the orders from the central command, you can't even open the door!"
"I'm asking you if you know. There's no time to explain!" [Yu Liya] grabbed Méchy's arm. "You just need to tell me, and you can stay here … Hurry up!"
Mi Lei's heart trembled when she saw the other party's eyes. Her finger trembled as she pointed at a place on the street ahead. "The defensive system on the street is basically based on the intersection. There … there should be …"
Before she finished speaking, [Yu Liya] had already jumped over the wall on the roof and jumped down!
Mi Lei was shocked. This building was at least thirty-four stories high. How could a person survive after falling down? She hurried to the guardrail and stuck her head out to look … but she couldn't see anything.
Mi Lei fell to the ground in a daze.
She could hear the sounds of the entire city bathed in despair … The screams seemed to be ringing in her ears. Mi Lei covered her ears in horror.
Her school, classmates, family … friends, they might have all been buried in the sea of fire at this moment.
It was so desperate, but she … she couldn't do anything. She could only watch everything happen.
"Why didn't you shoot at that time?"
"Why didn't you …" Mi Lei raised her head subconsciously and looked towards the source of the voice. Then, she revealed a confused expression. "You are … you seem to be that freshman?"
Black hair, black eyes, and a warm smile … it was that guy who was always by Shinji's side.
Mi Lei didn't pay much attention to this freshman. The only reason she remembered him was because the student council president had summoned him several times.
Because she was concerned about the president's attitude towards this freshman, Mi Lei subconsciously received some information about Shinji … as well as information about him.
[Zhu Zhu] … if she remembered correctly, that should be his name.
"Why didn't you shoot? Wasn't it always your wish to be a pilot?"
Mi Lei opened her mouth and revealed a terrified expression. The choice that appeared in front of her at that time … that should be her biggest secret. How did he know?
"You're not the only one." The young man in front of her shook his head. He came to Mi Lei's side and casually placed his hands on the wall as he looked around. "Many people here have their own choices. You, some of the students in the school, some of the people living in the city … and that person who was killed, Jamia, as well."
Mi Lei couldn't use the word 'fear' to describe her feelings. She looked up blankly at the young man's face … it was just that the face she was looking at seemed to be extremely far away.
Mi Lei's eyes flashed with a confused expression. "I … I don't understand."
"There's no right or wrong choice. No matter what you choose, it's your choice. As for whether you can achieve your ideal ending, it's up to you … after all, this is the second chance I've given you."
Mi Lei's gaze was still confused. The [Zhu Zhu] in front of her gave her a different feeling from the first time she saw him … could it be because he took off his ordinary black-rimmed glasses?
Just as she was about to speak, she saw something unbelievable.
The [Zhu Zhu] in front of her, who took off his glasses, suddenly flipped his hand. Then, a golden page appeared in his hand.
"What are you …"
"It doesn't matter who I am. After all, this is just the [Past]." He shook his head. "But it's a miracle that we can talk like this."
Mi Lei was stunned.
But he had already looked at her and reached out his hand to her. He whispered, "I will find your story. Then, one day, we will meet again. "
She instinctively reached out her hand to him. At the moment when their fingers touched, Mi Lei raised her head slightly. Her eyes focused. Her confused expression recovered a touch of clarity. She murmured subconsciously, "Your Highness …"
In the end, only his smile was left for her.
She dissipated. In a special way, she completely disappeared from this world … in the [Book of Gaia].
He looked back and saw a busy figure on the street. Suddenly, he whispered with a smile, "Lady Nan, you're getting better and better."
…
The door leading to the rooftop of the tall building slowly opened. A figure walked in slowly. He looked at everything here curiously … It seemed that someone had stayed here before.
It was a familiar feeling that seemed right but was actually wrong.
The city was crimson red, and the night sky was still as dark as ever … His eyes, which were covered by his black glasses, were suffused with a demonic golden light.
He had been in human society for some time, but his observation of human beings was not enough. He only vaguely remembered that he came here for a certain matter.
"Almost, remember …" He whispered softly.
— Then remember quickly.
A voice like an auditory hallucination suddenly sounded in his ears … There was no one around. The voice seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.
"Who is it …"
He looked around blankly. Everything in front of him was red.
…
…
When leaving the hangar, [Kerlot] didn't have time to equip too many weapons, but it had already rushed to the poisonous tree.
On the surface of the squirming poisonous tree trunk, some strange outlines could be vaguely seen. They were the faces of the messengers who had appeared in the past impacts.
The pilot was familiar with the information of each impact and learned from each battle.
Méchy could easily tell that the outlines on the poisonous tree were the messengers who had been killed by the Second Upper Capital City.
This poisonous tree absorbed the remains of those messengers and grew into its current state?
She instantly came to this conclusion. At the same time, [Kerlot]'s hand took out the high-frequency oscillation sword from the leg armor and directly chopped the trunk of the poisonous tree!
However, the surface of the poisonous tree was extremely firm!
Méchy was shocked.
The part of the tree trunk that was attacked suddenly swelled up, and then a giant palm instantly reached out and slapped [Kael Lot] heavily!
The body was hit by an unprecedented horrible impact and instantly crashed to the ground. After landing, [Kerlot] hurriedly climbed up. However, at this time, a terrifying huge eyeball had already appeared in front of it!
It was the eyeball-shaped messenger that was killed by [Cang Lei] in the 100th impact … It was later named [Demon Eye] by the base!
The eyes of the [Demon Eye] were like a whirlpool!
In the cockpit, Méchy suddenly stopped breathing … This [Demon Eye] was also connected to the poisonous tree trunk! It was not destroyed … No, it was reborn with the help of the poisonous tree!
In an instant, the whirlpool in the [Demon Eye]'s eyes spun crazily. Méchy felt that her consciousness was drawn into the whirlpool and instantly lost all perception of the outside world.
"That dream …" She murmured absent-mindedly.
However, at this moment, countless roars sounded and pulled her out of the terrifying whirlpool of consciousness. Méchy immediately gasped and saw that the door of the cockpit had been broken open!
She was exposed to the air. At this time, countless dancing tentacles reached out from the [Demon Eye]'s eyeball and crawled into the cockpit!
Bang, bang, bang —!!
A large number of flames burst out from the [Demon Eye]'s body. Those tentacles that invaded the cockpit were frightened and retreated one after another!
"Méchy —!!!"
A desperate shout came. Méchy subconsciously looked at the only screen left in the cockpit … It was an intersection in the street.
At this time, [Yu Liya] was standing on the barrel of a mortar … Her face was faintly pale, and her legs were even a little weak. It seemed that she could not stand steadily!
But as [Yu Liya] waved her hand, the whole city was instantly filled with the sound of cannons!
Like a meteor shower, countless cannons lit up at the same time and launched a terrifying attack on the poisonous tree —!!
The cannons were not enough to break the defensive field of the poisonous tree, but the dead messenger that emerged from the trunk was not protected by the field.
Under the attack of the cannons, the [Demon Eye] retreated step by step!
Surprised and overjoyed, Méchy quickly retreated to the intersection where the mortar was located. "Yu Liya, how did you activate the defense system?!"
"I risked my life!" At this time, Senior Sister [Yulia] said weakly, "The whole defense belt … I'm so tired!"
"Unfortunately, ordinary cannons can't break the messenger's field." Méchy smiled bitterly.
Although the city's defense system had been activated, and a large number of heavy weapons emerged from the ground, these weapons could only interfere with the messenger's movements; they could not cause any substantial damage to the messenger.
Although [Kerlot] could neutralize the messenger's field, he could not break the shell of the poisonous tree.
"Listen, Méchy! A special hole will appear on the messenger's body! That's its only weakness! Find it and attack it! "[Yu Liya] said quickly," I'll support you with the most powerful firepower! "
"Hole?"
"It's the empty place of the soul!" [Yu Liya] said hurriedly, "This thing doesn't have a heart, and it needs to constantly devour souls to fill its emptiness … The empty place is the hole! Once you get close to it, you can feel it. It's a kind of attraction, like the whisper of a demon! "
"This …" Méchy was speechless … Yu Liya, how did she know?
"Don't ask!" [Yu Liya] took a deep breath and said, "This is our current combat power. It seems that this is the only way to defeat it! We don't have enough power to directly destroy this thing, so we can only attack its weak points! Remember, it's a special hole. Don't randomly attack any hole you see! Go straight for the root of the problem and kill it with one blow! "
"I understand!" Méchy gritted her teeth and turned around resolutely.
[Yu Liya] took a deep breath again. Seeing [Kerlot] rush out again, she stood on the barrel of the cannon and waved her arm. "Ordinary cannons won't work. I don't know if Xing Chuang's cannons can withstand it … Whatever! I'll show you what the Cannon God Sect is like!!! Please, my Big Cannon!! "
Instantly, the cannons in the sky poured out as if they didn't care about their lives!
…
The defense system's attacks seemed to be fiercer than before … [Kerlot] was crazily rushing toward the poisonous tree, but a large number of corpses of messengers appeared on the tree trunk and kept attacking it!
However, every time it was about to be attacked, a large number of cannons would come to support it, giving [Kerlot] room to move forward!
Even the central control system didn't seem to be able to react so quickly … However, Méchy didn't have time to think about this because she had successfully climbed to the top of the poisonous tree!
Moreover, she felt the kind of call that Yu Liya said was like the whisper of a demon …
Hole!
