The moment Ma En lifted his legs and stepped out of the door, he felt that his body began to become heavier. However, the paradox and weird thing was that this heaviness was very "slight" and disappeared almost the next moment.
Then he immediately tried to call the control board's panel, but as he expected, there was no response from the control board.
After all, he walked into a reality stabilization prison.
But Ma En was immediately a little surprised, because the abnormal abilities he had used did not seem to be lifted. He originally thought that the abilities used through the Control Bureau would also be suppressed by the prison, but the fact is that they are still functioning normally. operating.
This is unexpected good news.
"Just follow me forward." Kania said in a normal voice, "The passage of our progress will be automatically checked."
"Okay," he replied shortly.
In fact, Ma En came to meet Shen Xiao with a small risk, that is, he might be exposed as a reality warper, but he was not too worried about this possibility coming true, because Hong Yuan did not recognize him as a reality warper at the time. , and it seemed that even Shen Xiao was not particularly affirmative when he spoke.
Secondly, it is also because if this is really possible, then Shenxiao should have mentioned this when guiding him to join the Federation. After all, it is obvious that her cooperation with the Federation is something she can see.
And even if the Federation really has a way to detect that he is a reality bender, it may not be a bad thing. After all, being a reality bender does not mean that he has to save Shenxiao. Even if the Federation knows, it will only work harder to win over him.
So even if there is a slight possibility of exposure, this risk is far from enough to make him miss the opportunity to meet Shen Xiao.
It took them more than ten minutes to walk through the long passage and pass through dozens of doors, and finally arrived at the last door smoothly.
When Kania opened the door, what was revealed in front of Ma En was a courtyard that looked quite warm and harmonious, and a rather luxurious single-family villa standing more than ten meters away. Behind the courtyard, at least several square kilometers could be seen. vast activity space.
"Do you want me to accompany you in, or go and talk to her alone?" Kania suddenly stopped and asked.
Ma En said with some confusion:
"Didn't the Federation send you here just to watch me?"
Kania said:
"There are at least three digits of federal members monitoring this conversation now. I am here just to provide support for you. After all, I am a professional who studies Shenxiao. But if you feel that you can complete the task alone, I will also I can let you try it first.
"Although it's just a superficial illusion, I think being alone with you can make Shenxiao let down his guard a little.
"Of course, if there is any problem, I will go in immediately."
Ma En nodded:
"If you don't mind, I'd like to go in by myself.
"I think it's more likely to accomplish your goals this way, and I really want to be 'alone' with her if possible. "
Kania nodded:
"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll break in myself if necessary."
Ma En walked to the door with a slightly uneasy mood, and then the main door opened directly remotely, and he immediately reached out to open the door and walked into Shenxiao's residence at this time, and then walked a few steps to the luxuriously decorated living room on the first floor. .
Shen Xiao is sitting on a rather expensive-looking solid wood bench. There is a coffee table directly opposite the long table in front of him. There is a small refrigerator on the left, and an unfinished Go board on the right. Finally, there is A few scattered books fell on the corner of the table.
"I didn't expect it was you." Shen Xiao said with a very kind and gentle expression, "Sit down, do you want something to drink?"
The scene in front of him was not what Ma En expected, but it seemed reasonable.
After he sat down according to Shenxiao's instructions, he came back to his senses and looked at the extraordinary person opposite him, the strongest known human ability user.
This was the first time he had seen the real Shen Xiao. She was a very good-looking woman. There were only a few people he had ever met who had similar talents to Shen Xiao.
level of color, but in fact Ma En didn't even pay special attention to her appearance.
Because after feeling the otherworldly temperament in her body, he would naturally ignore her appearance. Even the temperament of his incarnation of the moon god who was as beautiful as a dream seemed extremely mediocre in front of her.
Just sitting opposite her, Ma En felt like he was looking at the unreachable mountains, but unexpectedly he didn't feel any oppression or dullness. Instead, he felt a bit of natural tranquility in his heart.
"Shenxiao." He slowly said these two words of extraordinary significance.
Shen Xiao smiled and joked:
"Don't be so formal. You and I are no different. We both have one nose and two eyes."
Ma En answered honestly:
"I feel like I might not be ready to see you yet."
Shen Xiao said with a gentle expression:
"I didn't expect you to come to see me, but actually thinking about it carefully, it seems that it should be you. In fact, this is my fault. I also didn't expect that Qin Lan would encounter such a thing just after he recruited you into the Salvation Alliance. Sorry."
Mahn replied:
"It's nothing, we didn't know it would be like this at the time."
Shen Xiao said with a smile:
"You may have some truth to what you said to other people, but I am Shenxiao. I should have expected it, but it doesn't matter. Now you seem to be doing well. I hope I didn't bring you any trouble. What an irreparable loss.”
Ma En said:
"No, I'm honored to join the Salvation Alliance. If it's really a pity..."
When he said this, he paused and then said:
"Actually, we still failed to defeat the Federation. Although I have joined them now, I have actually fought hard. I almost thought I had a chance to win. But in the face of such an unrivaled force, we actually You can't decide your own victory or defeat.
"I'm sorry that I failed to live up to your expectations."
At first glance, this sentence sounds like Ma En feels a little guilty for her behavior at the moment, and is worried that Shen Xiao will feel that she has betrayed her, so she explains her sincerity to Shen Xiao in advance.
But in fact, what he is really talking about is "the conspiracy of the two gods."
Shen Xiao comforted softly:
"Had I been victorious I could have prevented these things, but since the Federation and their allies' plan against me was perfect enough to succeed, and they were strong enough to defeat me, I would have been defeated.
"The strong will win and the weak will lose. This is the reality. You are not as strong as the Federation, so you cannot defeat them."
Ma En asked with some confusion:
"If so, shouldn't we have resisted at that time? Shouldn't we have just accepted defeat?"
Have I failed?
Shenxiao replied:
"Of course not, your resistance must be meaningful, because you are not the only ones fighting against the Federation, but there are also many camps that I may not have thought of, and it's not like you can see the results in advance.
"It's not that the federation is strong that wins, it's that they win that are strong."
Having said this, she continued to comfort her.
"But don't care too much about this result. You have done a good job, but since we can't change reality, we have to slowly learn to accept failure. Reality is not a fairy tale. We will all lose. No one in this world can always win. people.
"Look, don't I lose?"
If the subject and object are replaced and Shen Xiao's words are understood in terms of "the conspiracy of the two gods", her meaning seems to be agreeing and admitting that Ma En failed in dealing with the conspiracy of the two gods, and is still Comfort him that this is because his opponent is too strong and failure is normal.
At the same time, she seemed to be saying that Ma En should not be too concerned about it, because he was not the only one fighting, but there were many other individuals or forces that she had not anticipated. Whether he could completely predict it was not that important.
What percentage of all people completes it may be more important.
And he has never lost. It's not that Shen Xiao's prediction is so strong that he is invincible. It's just that his previous opponents happened to be not as strong as him. As Shen Xiao said, "The strong one is the one who wins."
This is actually different from what Ma En expected. Although he is not particularly optimistic, deep down in his heart, he still feels that Shenxiao will suddenly come up with a solution to the "conspiracy of the two gods" during this meeting.
But she said, "You have to learn to accept failure."
This gave Ma En a feeling of frustrated expectations, but at the same time...
It also made him feel deserved.
Because this is normal. If every prophecy left in the past by Shen Xiao can be perfectly realized, and she can completely hide it from the federation, then she should not stay here at all, nor should she lose in that battle.
You must know that these prophecies correspond to her fate after being imprisoned. If all of these can come true, it means that the federal method of blocking her prophecy ability has not actually taken effect. Then there may be some unknown reason for her defeat. .
In this case, Shen Xiao's purpose is slightly unknown. At the same time, if this situation is true, it also means that Shen Xiao is an excellent actor, but in general, this is not something worth worrying about. things.
Because even if Shen Xiao has other intentions, there is a high possibility that they are for saving the world or other good things.
The real question is why she did this, because on the surface if she was really that strong, there would be no need to risk coming here. In other words, if that situation is true, it must mean that there is something that she has to do. reason.
But now these are meaningless, because the success of the conspiracy of the two gods has proved that she is not omnipotent.
These thoughts flashed through Ma En's mind, and the next moment he naturally showed a look of shame:
"You are right. In fact, before I stepped here, I had fully accepted our failure in front of the Federation. Noble ideals will not win, only strong enough lofty ideals will, but even you are still not enough. powerful.
"But maybe I was a little afraid that you would be disappointed in us, so when I saw you, I suddenly became "careful" about it. "
Shen Xiao said in a very gentle manner:
"Of course you don't have to feel guilty. When I agreed to the Federation's dissolution of the Salvation Alliance in exchange for the armistice, you no longer shouldered any responsibilities that did not belong to you. The rest is all between me and the Federation, and there may be some mischief. Ghosts come looking for trouble.
"But this is no longer your war."
Ma En paused, and then finally got to the point:
"I'm here on behalf of the Federation this time."
Shen Xiao nodded:
"I know, like I said, your war is over.
"You are free to do whatever you want now."
This sentence seemed to completely expose the reason why Ma En said so much - because he joined the Federation, and Shen Xiao also gently expressed his understanding of his doing so, comforting him that he didn't have to feel guilty about it.
At least this is what federal experts think is the case.
Ma En took this step seemingly with difficulty:
"They want me to tell you that the destruction of Atlantis is real. They have shown me the scene. I am 90% sure that Atlantis was indeed destroyed as they said, and everywhere They are all those sea people."
Shen Xiao frowned slightly:
"The Sea Tribe is a very troublesome group for me, but I wasn't particularly worried about them in the past, because it might take hundreds of years for these creatures to pose a sufficient threat, but I didn't expect them to actually do so now. It became the source of doom.
"If this is true, then it shouldn't be a conspiracy by the Federation, but there must be some force secretly involved, and the Federation told me that the man behind it is the Sun God. Do you think their speculation is correct?"
Ma En nodded:
"Some time ago he
I was indeed involved in the Atlantis incident. If you ask me, I think what they said is right. However, I am only a super-level ability user, and my thoughts actually don’t make much sense. "
"No, you are not just a level 1 ability user." Shen Xiao said sincerely, "You are also a member of the Salvation Alliance who persisted until the end."
Ma En showed a ashamed expression:
"I was actually worried that my information would mislead you, but I finally convinced myself to trust your judgment, okay...
"Now that my work is done, it's time to leave."
So as not to arouse federal suspicion.
Shen Xiao looked at him with understanding and said:
"goodbye."
He also replied:
"goodbye."
Ma En stood up and turned around to leave Shen Xiao's house.
Kania outside the door asked curiously:
"How about it?"
Ma En replied calmly:
"very smooth."
She nodded:
"Then let's go."
He followed Kania into the passage again without any hesitation.
Shen Xiao admitted that the Sun God had defeated her prophecy, but also failed to provide a solution to the conspiracy between the two gods. This result was a little beyond Ma En's expectations, but it was also reasonable.
After all, he and his "present Shenxiao" are in a stable reality prison, and the person who provided the prophecy was also the past Shenxiao, so...
Now he can start his plan.
