I am the former civilized hero.

You are so smart. You can see through what I am thinking?

Ryan didn't have time to sigh, and nodded gently: "Well, so I don't mean to regret it. Now that I have started, I will do my best to keep everyone alive. I really can't be a cold weapon."

"I can see that you approached Kevin and me initially with a purpose. I was very confused at the time. Even though I had better grades, Kevin didn't have any special skills. Why did you deliberately approach him?"

"This question only emerged during the Qianyu Academy incident. You were very weak back then, but you shocked me more than you do now."

It would be fine if his grades were better, and Kevin is really good at basketball.

"So I was a clown for so long?"

"No, I didn't change your mind on purpose. You changed your goal yourself, right after the Chiba Academy incident. This doesn't fit with your smart personality. I never thought you would be a hero, not rely on others, but use them by any means necessary."

"Smart people always seek benefits and avoid harm, so why would they fall into a quagmire? For example, if you want to return to your original goal now, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven."

Ryan couldn't refute it. In fact, the change happened even earlier. Just take the initial goal as an example. He just wanted to survive until the post-civilization, and then do nothing, change nothing, and use his prophets to curry favor with others and watch the show to get through the end.

So his initial skill points were all focused on 'hiding'. Later, when he met Hua, Su, Kevin and Mei, he decided to do something small to make their lives less tragic. After all, they had been together day and night for several years, and he really couldn't just stand by and watch.

I expanded my goals step by step and finally got to where I am now. Looking back now, I still feel a little dazed.

Is it fate that changed me, or is it that I chose my own fate?

Ryan had no answer, he just couldn't go back. He asked himself, whether it was Kevin, Hua or Mebius, if they were in desperate situations, would he be able to protect himself?

Just like the Seventh Herrscher, who knew he was no match for his opponent but still fought with all his might. Three years ago, this would have been unthinkable.

"It seems I have to be the hero."

"You are already a hero, carrying all our expectations, and we will contribute our own strength, no matter whether the ending is sad or not." Mei said firmly. She also said the same thing to Mebius.

"No regrets!"

What a great way to leave no regrets.

Ryan also laughed, and just then the automatic door opened, and a somewhat confused Su walked in, holding a fruit basket in her hands.

"Hey, you guys are here too."

"What a coincidence, today is a class reunion, right?" Ryan waved, took the fruit basket, and then peeled an orange and stuffed it into his mouth. "Didn't you come here during the day? Do you miss Kevin so much?"

"It's mainly because Alicia wanted to hold a secret meeting and asked me to leave, so I just came over. Hey, why do you look so grim?"

Ryan had a look of disgust on his face, as if the Ruler of Constraint had blew a breath on the back of his neck, and even his hair stood on end.

The combat meeting is not directed at me, and why is Alicia joining in on the fun?

"Don't look at me. I don't know either." Su waved his hand gently. He was a true gentleman, a gentle brother who never got dragged into a vortex. "If you're afraid, ask Mei. She's smarter than me."

"I would be afraid. Are you kidding me? I am the commander-in-chief, the strongest person in the human race. Please teach me, Dr. Mei!"

puff.

Su laughed out loud. He had seen the scene of destroying mountains and breaking seas on TV and thought Ryan had become a demon king. But when he saw him again, he found that this guy hadn't changed at all.

Still as cold as ice on the outside, but as hot as fire on the inside.

"Okay, I was just trying to have fun." Mei suppressed her laughter, crossed her legs, and raised the tablet in her hand. "It's actually very easy to solve. Just divert their attention and defeat them one by one. Don't forget that you are the leader first. These personal matters cannot delay the fight against Honkai. Personal feelings can never be placed above the interests of mankind. This is the iron rule of the Fire Moth."

The tone was light and the content was serious, but Ryan's eyes lit up and he exclaimed that Dr. May was invincible.

"Yes, work is the most important thing. At least most people can prioritize and delay first, then have time to tackle them one by one. Once the progress is pushed to the same level, no one will have any objections."

"You control the intensity of the battle yourself. Be careful not to be distracted or you might get into trouble." Mei warned. She had seen that there were more than just a few people who wanted to join the war.

"Well, I will determine the important goals first, and the secondary goals can be put aside later, following the principle of starting with the easy and then the difficult."

"I still suggest you stay focused and don't bite off more than you can chew."

"It's okay. I'm very self-aware, and don't underestimate my abilities."

The two of them exchanged glances, which stunned Su next to them. Was this a war meeting? And Mei had a faint smile on her face. She must be waiting to see the show. Did Ryan offend her badly recently?

Su was confused for a moment, and found that he could not interrupt the conversation between these two geniuses at all. How much sin had Ryan committed? Mobius, Hua, Ying, and maybe an Alicia, but was there anyone else besides them?

I take back what I said. He has changed. The Ryan who once loved foreign languages ​​has disappeared.

"There will be an opportunity soon." Mei raised the tablet again and slid to the beginning page. "I have already organized the 13th Fire Chasing Team and can recruit people. This way, they will be separated and at least won't get sick from idleness in that villa. In a few days, the open struggle will turn into a covert fight."

That's right, it's because she's too idle. That's why trouble arises. You see, once Yue Yu Wei Li got a job, she rarely showed up.

I have to increase the intensity of work and work overtime, especially Alicia, the pink fat woman who picked up a shovel and kept digging holes for me.

Ryan gritted his teeth and looked carefully. Sure enough, he saw that the plan had been completed. Editor-in-Chief Mei Lai handed it to Prometheus for inspection. All the fusion warriors were divided into thirteen teams according to the situation in the simulated battle.

He didn't even look at the groups carefully, obviously trusting Mei.

"When are you going to start?"

"Now is a rare window period, and we can gather the upper-level fusion warriors together. Send a message to each branch tonight and ask them to drop all their affairs and come as soon as possible." Ryan stood up seriously, as if he had entered working mode.

"So soon? We can't even set up the venue."

"Now is an extraordinary period, and we should keep everything simple. Su, go back and tell Alicia that I have to work overtime tonight, so I won't be back." Ryan had an expression that seemed to be pressing, and in a trance, he had the aura of a superior.

Su opened his mouth silently, somewhat confused as to what was true and what was false.

"Are you really here for work?"

Ryan looked at him, then slowly shifted his gaze to Kevin on the bed, and sighed, "It's half true and half false."

.......

"Ryan is really not coming back tonight."

Alicia glanced at the clock and saw that it was already two o'clock in the morning. She couldn't help but yawn.

With her as a golden wingman staff officer, the plan of "Operation Ryan" is already very beautiful, but she can't do anything if the real owner doesn't come back.

"I've said before that Senior Brother won't avoid me. He just has more important things to do." Hua Yazi sat on the carpet, rubbing his smooth knees with his fingers. "Actually, I just want to know how far he and Platypus have come. What if they progress too fast?"

"This is a simple matter. I can just ask Danzhu. This girl is greedy and two cups of milk tea can solve the problem." Ying seemed unusually enthusiastic.

When Alicia heard this, she immediately patted her chest and said, "Then let's get the intelligence first. Don't worry, with the participation of my love master, Ali, you will definitely be able to catch up."

Why do you sound like an expert? And you are too enthusiastic. I feel like you are not that innocent.

Ying and Hua looked at each other, but before they could say anything, a voice came from the side.

"I advise you not to do that."

"Why, Aponya."

A few people turned their heads and saw the nun knitting a scarf on a recliner like an old grandmother, with the same compassionate and gentle expression on her face.

"Because the timing is not right, and I guess Mebius is still stubborn. She planted the seeds and has no intention of letting them bloom now, so you don't have to rush at all. Just keep a calm mind."

"I don't believe that my dear Mobius, who has finally mustered up the courage, will let this opportunity go in vain?" Alicia shook her head. According to her, it was now their turn and they should activate the 'Night Attack' card.

Aponia did not explain, but just looked at Ying calmly. The assassin took a deep breath, as if he understood something.

"I think it's very likely. For a warrior, having too many emotions in his heart will affect the speed of drawing the sword. For Ryan who is fighting on the front line, this is fatal."

The living room suddenly fell silent. Ying was right. At least no one present wanted Ryan to take the knife. But after thinking about it, they still felt unwilling.

"It's okay, I can not affect my senior brother, but--" Hua suddenly became smart and patted the table lightly.

"I can keep an eye on Mebius too!"

Chapter 329: Upper Fusion Warrior

The timing was just right, the Seventh Herrscher fell, the Eighth Herrscher was severely damaged, and the Honkai side had temporarily lost its ability to attack.

The only complete form left now is the Herrscher of Death, who is probably also licking his wounds and has no energy to deal with humans. This creates a precious window of opportunity.

Under normal circumstances, Mei would never dare to transfer the strong men back to the headquarters. Now, even if the Herrscher seizes the opportunity, the price he pays is only one or two cities.

The price is painful, but still within the range that humans can bear.

As pragmatists, May and Ryan did not like extravagance. In order to keep the secret, they naturally chose to be as low-key as possible. They did not even alert the underground city. Only the transport planes flying in from all over the world proved that today was extraordinary.

"Don't look around, it's right here."

Coleman waved his hand. As the former head of the intelligence department, he knew every upper-level fusion warrior, so he was sent out as a greeter, and beside him was the brown bear-like Andevich.

This warrior, whose body was still covered with frost, had just arrived. He clasped his strong hands to his chest and glanced at the people getting off the plane one by one.

First came a pair of twins, both with waist-length black hair. The one on the left had a cold and serious expression, while the one on the right had a bad look on his face, as if he was ready to scold someone at any time.

"It's sisters Anna and Isa, Coleman, why don't you go up and say hello?"

"Well, there is a little conflict." Coleman was suddenly speechless. He was scared by the poisonous tongue in New York last time. He just sighed and said, "It's a pity that John died in the battle, otherwise it would be very suitable for him to deal with the twins."

John was classified as killed in action, but Ryan did not say anything about the fact that he was being controlled, which saved his face.

"Hey, isn't this Lieutenant Colonel Coleman? Have you been to the Golden Courtyard to peep?" Isa, with red eyes, immediately noticed the blond young man and made his face tremble when she opened her mouth.

"How dare I? But I am very interested in your boudoir."

"Come on if you dare!"

"Haha, of course I'll come while you're sleeping. I'm not stupid." Coleman didn't give her any face. Just when Isa was about to go berserk, a pair of white gloves separated the two of them.

"God said that we should unite. As companions who have been entrusted with each other's support, why should we speak ill of each other?"

Wearing a straight monk's uniform and with a kind expression, the two turned their heads away when they saw the priest. They still respected Joshua, who often helped refugees.

"Father, I'll give you this face and not bother with a child."

"Haha, I don't want to waste time talking to a pervert, sister, let's go."

The two sides separated, and of course there were soldiers leading the way. Andevich was surprised to see Joshua walking to the other side.

"Father Joshua, aren't you going to headquarters?"

"I'll go later. I have to meet Sister Aponia first. Excuse me, both of you."

He used the word "audience", which kept the two of them in shock for a long time. At this moment, their shoulders were pressed again. When they turned around, they saw that it was a man in his thirties.

He was wearing a neat black and gold uniform of the Fire Moth with a small gold belt around his waist. His overly long bangs made him look a little depressed, but at least there was a hint of a smile on his face.

"These charlatans are so boring. Arguing with a beautiful girl is actually a kind of fun. They will never understand."

"Yun, you're here too. You didn't even participate in the previous mock battle." Coleman's eyes lit up. This guy was considered a half-friend of his. "You're talking nonsense to me now, but you won't be able to fart when you really face those twins. Do you want to have some fun later?"

Andevich also tilted his head slightly. He was not familiar with this young man. He only knew that his number was CM014 and he was usually assigned to the Beishenzhou branch. And how come this Coleman could get along with everyone?
