After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

However, this expression of emotion was fleeting. A moment later, Elusia took Lonnie's wrist and said, "Alright, the short rest is over, and we should continue our journey."

"!"

Elusia's change of expression was so rapid that Lonnies thought she had just witnessed a hallucination.

but……

It absolutely cannot be a hallucination.

Even if everything in this world can be considered an illusion, as Elcia's lover, there is absolutely no way I could think it's an illusion.

Just now, Elusia's eyes did indeed glisten.

But why?

Could it be that……

……

A possibility occurred to Lonnie, and her heart skipped a beat, while the silver-haired princess had already stood up and said, "Alright, stop thinking nonsense. We're about to do the most important thing."

"Elusia, wait a minute!"

"Why do we have to wait?"

"what?"

"People always have to move forward; they can't always stay in the same place... And compared to who I am now, you'll be more familiar with who I am now, right?"

"!"

"So let's keep going. I'm sure there's some work I need to do, otherwise, we wouldn't be here, would we?"

The silver-haired girl smiled and said this.

Chapter 91 Brave

"Are there no more heroes?"

The rice stork could hardly believe the reality laid out before it.

Because she firmly believed from a young age that she could be the perfect partner for the hero and spend the happiest time in the world with him.

Together they will travel across mountains and rivers to search for those lost treasures.

They will help those who have been displaced and rebuild their homes for villagers who have suffered from the anomalies.

to this end,

Not only did the Inari learn various skills, but it also traveled a great distance to the City of Heroes, hoping to encounter the one destined for it.

however……

there is none left?

How can this be? !

Doesn't this mean that all my efforts have been a joke?

Not only that, he was also imprisoned and unable to return to the Dragon Roar Fleet on time.

If that's the case...

Then who can command the ships to jointly resist the invasion from the abyss?

Therefore,

The Inari was emotionally devastated.

She pounded on the prison door, desperately wanting to get out, but all she got in response was the cold, mechanical voice of the machine.

"Warning, prisoner, your behavior constitutes a disturbance of prison order. However, the warden has ordered that, considering your special circumstances, you will not be punished."

"Please, please, let me out. I really, I really can't..."

But no matter how much they pleaded, it was to no avail.

The laws of the City of Heroes are all ironclad rules. Even though Lian Lan is the warden, she only has the power to reduce sentences within a certain scope; she does not have the authority to judge whether a person is guilty or not.

(Wait, is that really all...?)

……

Lianlan looked into the distance at the boundless, vast sea.

In addition to face-to-face contact with other systems in the city, Lianlan can also confirm other modules through hyperdimensional communication.

but……

No matter how I called out, there was no signal from the third pole.

This means that the current City of Heroes consists entirely of generic NPCs created by the system, and there are no longer any who can be considered as potential heroes.

Therefore, no matter how much Inago pleads, she will not be able to get the hero's help.

My only option is to comfort her and help her give up.

After all, it's better to face reality head-on than to cling to unrealistic fantasies.

Lianlan made this decision, but

"No, I don't... believe it..."

"why?"

"Because my mother told me from a young age that at the end of the sea is the homeland of heroes, which is also my father's hometown... the place where he was born."

"Is your father a member of this community?"

"So, there must be more. Everyone is just testing my resolve. As long as I don't give up and I don't succumb to fate, there will definitely be a brave hero who will recognize me."

Although the girl's voice was so weak, it was as if all her tears had already dried up.

But upon hearing these words, Lianlan felt a jolt in her mind, as if a gravitational wave had swept through her soul.

Refusing to succumb to fate?

Yes, as an artificial intelligence, I must submit to fate. I must ensure the normal operation of the prison, because it is my duty and my mission.

If I leave prison, everything will definitely fall apart.

but,

but……

Wasn't this city of heroes already in complete chaos?

Because there are no more heroes here, and even the tidal dragons that serve as transport have recently become very strange in their movements.

Isn't our mission to serve the brave and to provide opportunities for the brave?

and so……

If there are no heroes in this world, then let me...

Be the last hero of this city.

Feeling the loss of her memories, Lianlan trembled and knelt on the ground.

In that instant, she understood many things.

It turns out that she wasn't a human at all, but rather the ultimate AI, Lianlan, created to assist the City of Heroes.

No wonder I can forget so many things so easily. It's because I'm not good at using my brain to think. I thought I had backed up many things from the past, but in reality, they have turned into dust in the river of time and disappeared.

So……

Was my past life experience also fabricated?

Also, why can't I remember anything about this prison anymore?

What about that girl named Inago?

Is she still alive, or is she completely dead?

……

In an effort to ascertain what had happened, Lianlan pounded her palms on the screen, attempting to gain maximum access to investigate what had actually occurred.

But at that very moment...

"Traces of forced entry detected. Emergency response mechanism activated."

"what?!"

"Visual nerve connection established. Destruction program initiated."

……

……

---------------------------

……

……

Walking alongside Elusia, Lonnies felt extremely uneasy.

This unease stemmed not only from her arrival in this completely unfamiliar place, but also from her ability to sense that Elusia was currently feeling quite lost.

Because for this girl...

She is still the princess of the Mingjin Kingdom, isn't she?

However, after experiencing all these things and having a conversation with herself, how could a girl as intelligent as Elcia not have guessed something?

……

The once familiar snow country has been reduced to scorched earth.

Whether it's fathers, mothers, or even ordinary citizens, they have probably all disappeared from this world.
