"You are so skilled, you must have coaxed many girls." Although Noelle said teasingly, his face was full of smiles, "But thank you, I have become accustomed to being alone over the years."
"Because of this, in loneliness, I am used to reflecting on everything I have done in the past." She bent slightly and said with a chuckle, "So, I will not stay here like this."
"Isn't this much better." I sighed and said, "But then again, I was surprised when I heard the word 'heterogeneous'. After all, we are actually old friends."
Noelle's eyes widened slightly in surprise, and then he said strangely: "So, the disaster has not disappeared even after such a long time?"
Nolan Lesi folded his hands and said: "To be more precise, they were subdued for a while, but now they are probably gradually awakening due to the excavation of ancient ruins, especially in the previous period, which caused quite a commotion. , although it was quickly suppressed, the current situation has become even more chaotic because of the civil war."
"In this case, please allow me to apologize for my reckless behavior just now-" Noelle said slightly embarrassed.
I quickly held Noel down and said, "This is human nature. It is quite normal to have such emotions when meeting strange beings. And more than this, we hope to understand more about what happens when the 'heterogeneous' is inside the machine creation." What happened when it broke out?"
"Ah, I'm sorry... Hey! I didn't mean to say this, I'm sorry, huh?!" Noelle said in a panic.
I always feel that she is surprisingly natural. Is it because she relies on trees as a support?
"Anyway, in short! What happened that day was quite terrifying." She swallowed slightly and said, "It would be better to say that the heterogeneity had already begun to spread. However, when we were actually discovered, most of the important rooms had already Occupied by them. We, who do not have the relative ability to resist, after recapturing several key nodes, do not have enough personnel to continue the attack. Even with the increase in heterogeneity, our even guard has captured The facilities have also become a problem.”
"So you made that decision in the end, right?" Nolan Lusi frowned slightly and said, "What forms of heterogeneity did you encounter before?"
"Form means-"
I also suddenly remembered what happened recently, so I quickly added: "Are people controlled by heterogeneity, or are they the essence of heterogeneity, or are they creations eroded by heterogeneity? "
A look of surprise flashed across Noel's face. She widened her eyes and said in disbelief: "How did you know? It's exactly what you said."
"If we follow the classification you gave, I'm afraid the situation we encountered should be 'people controlled by the alien', right? Although they still retain their sanity, their entire minds are distorted and biased towards the alien."
"...In this case, shouldn't they have weakened a lot due to time?" I said a little strangely, "But from what you said, it doesn't seem that simple."
At this time, Nolan Lusi suddenly patted me on the shoulder and said: "I'm afraid it's the same situation we met in the prisoner's village before. In that case, the threat is much greater than imagined."
After being reminded by Nolan Lusi, I suddenly remembered what "people controlled by aliens" can do.
"Summoning aliens..."
"That's right, it's about summoning aliens." Noelle said with a heavy heart. "The most important thing is that all the defense creations of the entire biological guard agency are in the lower hangar."
Nolan Lusi concentrated slightly and said: "Well - it sounds like an extremely unfavorable situation. The difficulty is really not low."
"The alien finally took control of creation, right?" I sighed, "The situation is much more serious than imagined."
Noelle shook his head and said, "It's a little better than expected, but the difference is not that big."
"The alien cannot use the weapons used to defend the creation, and the energy source carried by the defense mechanism itself cannot be used by the alien. What is used to corrode the creation is only the solid shell and the mechanisms that the Confederacy has worked hard to build."
"This 'just' isn't easy at all."
"But in a desperate situation, any advantage can be regarded as success. That's what they say, right." Noelle said with a bitter smile.
Nolan Lusi patted Noelle on the shoulder and said with a smile: "From this point of view, you are indeed right."
"The question now is probably what has become of the lower level now." I thought about it and said, "Noelle, do you still have a certain grasp of the lower level now?"
"Unfortunately, until now, I have completely lost the monitoring of the situation on the lower level." Noai's face was a little heavy. "Because of the seal, all possible heterogeneous infection pathways from the lower level have been blocked, so I have no way of knowing what the situation at the lower level is now.”
"What about the seal?" I asked after thinking about it.
"The seal is intact, but if you don't come...the space crack is my final destination, right?" Noelle gently held his chest and lowered his head and said, "It's strange, it's obviously just He is just a creature, but he is trying to pursue the chance of life."
I looked up and thought about it, and finally chuckled.
"It's not surprising. To use a common saying, it's just human nature."
Noelle raised his head in surprise, then smiled.
"You are right."
"How about changing the situation for flirting?" Nolanle interrupted the moment of warmth without mercy, "Noel, you guided us all the way, right? Can you monitor the situation near the seal? ?”
After saying that, Nolan Lusi paused slightly and added: "As for the range setting, how about setting it within a hundred meters for the time being?"
"Huh? If it's only within a hundred meters, there won't be any problem, even before the seal -"
"Idiosyncratic thinks so too." Nolan Lusi curled her lips.
"······Give way."
"It's just an insurance." She said, "You can gradually activate the lower level techniques after we confirm the safety."
"Of course, it doesn't matter if it doesn't start."
"Because the scene may be a little inappropriate."
······Don’t say things that sound like you’re coaxing a child!
The corners of my eyes twitched suddenly, and then I looked at Noelle and said, "Nolan Lesi does occasionally say some strange things. I hope you can forgive me..."
"——I'm just a little curious." Noelle smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't quite understand what Miss Nolan means."
"To put it simply, the method is probably a bit violent." I could only explain it this way.
"I plan to destroy the entire lower level." Nolan Lusi said quietly, "But from our previous observations, if the lower level is destroyed, there will be structural problems in the operation of the entire health security agency."
"Although this matter requires your consent, it is impossible to imagine how the entire organization has been eroded after so many years. It is better to destroy it to be on the safe side. But according to my observation, your root system is also Have you completely taken root here?”
Noelle was silent for a long time, and the expression on his face seemed slightly lost.
"Sure enough, I thought it was too wonderful -"
"Are you thinking about something sad?" Nolan Lusi interrupted Noelle rudely and said slightly irritably, "I just want to ask, if you leave here, will you be okay? Is this a problem? I’m going to use other methods to take you out of here.”
"Hey!? Wait, wait, of course it was okay before, but my current state of existence has obviously changed..."
"Just think about it and leave the solution to me." The dark particles in Nolan Lesi's hands condensed, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes and then disappeared without a trace, "Be my attribute. How about the next one? Although those guys are pretty good, their reliability is quite different. I don’t want to go out and see a ruin when I get home.”
"Subordinate?" Noelle said slightly awkwardly.
"I can be regarded as a ruler in a certain sense... right?" It was obvious that after Nolan Lusi said this, she suddenly felt a little weak, and she also revealed a picture of vicissitudes of life. expression.
Well - poverty is indeed something that can temper one's will and experience.
"I have no choice." Noelle laughed, "Because this is a great good thing for me."
"I can live for a long time." Nolan Lusi said lightly.
Noelle tilted his head and said, "I have lived for a long time."
Nolan Lusi chuckled.
She took out a strange-looking gold coin from her necklace and gently threw it to Noelle.
The gold coin traced a bright path in mid-air, and then stopped in front of Noelle.
"With its power, you can break away from the limitations of your own body and stay connected."
I looked at the strange-shaped gold coins in the air with some surprise, and said to Nolan Lusi: "Gold coins? Are you going to become the God of Wealth or the God of Gold Coins this time?"
"...No." Nolan said calmly, "This gold coin comes from an era that has perished and has been kept here for a long time."
"The power embedded in it is the hope that is like the longing of billions of living beings."
"This is enough to carry the souls of an era."
Next, countless rays of light scattered out, turning into brilliant particles and scattering down the moment they approached Noelle, slowly integrating into and enriching her body.
"I've already thought about the name of God." Nolan Lusi chuckled, "I'll call you the God of Separation of the Past."
——With all due respect, this is not a normal name for a god.
However, it doesn't matter anymore.
Nolan Lusi patted my shoulder lightly and said with a smile: "Okay, don't look at it. It will take some time for her to accept all the power of hope. This free time will be used to clean up those guys below. Bar."
I nodded.
The moment I left and closed the door, I saw countless lights slanting down from the broken skylight paper, shining on Noel's body.
Like salvation.
Bang——
The door is closed.
After returning to the original hall along the original path, walking in the opposite direction from here is already an unknown territory.
Although it's not that I don't believe Noel's statement, it is incredible in itself to still maintain sufficient sealing ability after a long time.
Therefore, it is never a bad thing to remain vigilant.
The flowing light gradually became sparser as we went deeper into the middle floor, as if we were entering a corridor at midnight.
Nolan Lusi snapped her fingers, and a pale blue light immediately illuminated the dark corridor.
However, the scene in front of me is much messier than that of the middle level, and messy alloys can be seen everywhere on the ground.
Some have been melted down, and some are just scattered into parts, but most of them are creations that have been cut into two parts simply and roughly.
These fragments were simply piled up and set aside, as if they had been there for thousands of years, waiting for someone to clean them out.
"...Ah, it's not valuable." Nolan Lusi said after taking a look.
"If these special alloys were given to the empire's alchemists, they would be delighted to receive them, right?" I said.
Both in terms of toughness and hardness, they are all high-quality works. Studying them may make materials science go back hundreds of thousands of years, returning to super-ancient levels.
"Farewell, I don't want to get into trouble for no reason." Nolan Lusi dropped the alloy in his hand and patted the dust on his hands.
"It's almost time to arrive." I also dropped the alloy and said calmly as I looked at the deep corridor ahead.
The flowing light has completely disappeared at this time.
The corridor in front of me seemed to be swallowing light, and its dark mouth opened like a giant beast.
And my perception is also telling me crazily that there is something terrible ahead.
The dark long sword reflected a little light in the lightless darkness because of the magic aura set up by Nolan Lesi.
"...Are you ready?" Nolan Lusi smiled faintly.
The magic circle was activated simultaneously in front of me, and with the concentration of magic power, violent flames were condensed and compressed within it.
Nolan Lusi tilted her head and looked at me and said, "Hey, you don't want to throw this fire directly, do you?"
"Of course that's the plan."
"Boss Lin, this isn't flavorful enough!" Kellas raised his hands with a smile and shouted: "Let me add some ingredients for you!"
"Don't worry about adding ingredients or not...don't you think there is something to do before throwing the big fireball?"
Nolan Lusi took a step forward.
The reflected light streaked through the darkness like meteors.
The next moment, a huge shattering sound boomed from the corridor.
