I am the former civilized hero.

Soon, Mebius turned into dark green lightning and jumped more than ten meters away in an instant, staring at Ryan with eyes that contained regret, lamentation, and pity.

It happened very quickly. Ryan was stunned for a moment, and then his blood pressure exploded in his mind, like a high-explosive bomb, confusing his clear logical thinking.

Mebius!!!

If there weren't so many people watching, and if Hua hadn't already dealt with the Honkai beast and returned, Ryan would have wanted to pounce on the snake and rub it back and forth on the ground.

What's in your head? Are you a rapid-acting booster?

"My lords, I'm sorry to have caused you to misunderstand." Vita, who had finally calmed her companions, trotted back. Seeing the aggressive Ryan, she stopped in fear. "The end of the world is approaching. Edelweiss City really needs you. Please don't mind the rudeness of mortals."

You are dead. I will settle the score with you later.

After glaring at Mebius, Ryan had to focus on the business and frowned, "Didn't you say I was a monster? Aren't you afraid that I would massacre the city?"

"I am afraid, but objectively you have resolved the crisis and protected the town. Besides, everyone is in a panic and needs a super talent like you to feel safe."

The logic is clear, but the natives of the bubble world don't know that they are living in a bubble world. In an instant, the sun disappears, the world turns dark, and monsters appear. It would be strange if they don't panic.

At least in appearance, Ryan and the other two were more like the same kind, and they did not kill the sheriff.

“My prices are high.”

"Don't worry, Edelweiss City will do its best to entertain you before dawn!" The girl was obviously relieved.

"No need, just don't disturb me easily. I will try to find a solution to this eternal night."

Ryan said nothing and left no promises. He was willing to waste time only because this coincidence was a little weird. He turned around and walked down the clock tower amid a bunch of complicated gazes. The breeze blew by, and the girl's face was depicted in Ryan's mind.

There are no changes in micro-expressions, no drastic changes in emotions, and it doesn't look like he's pretending?

At this time Hua also came back, holding a dark head of the temple in his hand. The beautiful girl made people avoid her, and even the sheriffs were trembling with fear.

They saw how powerful the monster was, and of course they knew that the flintlock rifles in their hands were useless. Although these people were suspicious, they saved their lives, so they had to bow their heads when they should, because life was the most important thing.

"Brother, why did you change your mind?" Hua lowered his voice, somewhat unable to keep up with Ryan's train of thought.

At the beginning, he was like a passer-by and had no contact with the natives. Now he acts as a savior, which is a 180-degree turn.

Ryan didn't answer and took the two of them back to the previous restaurant. The boss was very considerate and gave them the seat and lit the kerosene lamp.

It was pitch black outside the broken glass, and a few swaying torches were like ghosts. Everyone was at a loss and just snapped up all the kerosene. After all, no one knew how long the eternal night would last.

The sounds of crying, quarreling, and being suppressed could be heard faintly through the darkness. Human beings' natural fear of darkness made people's heart beat faster.

"I haven't changed my mind. I just added another goal to the original two." Ryan looked outside and then answered.

"Are you interested in the power of bubbles in this world?" Mebius understood immediately.

I really envy your thick skin. You just pissed me off, but now you act like nothing happened.

Ryan couldn't complain and nodded: "Well, after confirming that it was a man-made disaster, I became interested in exploring. Maybe the gains will be greater than the authority of the Herrscher. After all, there is the power of the 'sea' in it, which is essentially different from authority."

These words made both of them serious. They knew that Ryan would not waste time for no reason and must have some expectations, especially Hua, who had just fought a monster.

"Well, the power of these monsters has a kind of repulsive effect on Honkai energy, which made me waste some energy in vain. I could have killed them with 30% of my strength, but I had to use up to 50% of my strength."

"This is because the total energy of the monsters is too small. If it were on me, even a one percentage point increase would be very valuable." Ryan thought of the Blood Ruler, who used authority to fight, but this was fundamentally different.

"Let me dissect and analyze it. It might be useful." Mobius was very perceptive now and stroked his long green hair. "But what does this have to do with staying in Edelweiss? Shouldn't we go explore for more information?"

"There's something wrong with Vita. I have to test her. You two should remember that we haven't found anything so far. The second reason is also simple." Ryan pointed to the endless darkness outside the window, his expression becoming more sinister.

"In this doomsday scenario, can't it just deal with us?"

Hua's eyes lit up, knowing that Ryan wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, at least to use these mutations to find the Herrscher. Those two illiterates didn't know as much as they did.

But this would take a lot of time and be full of uncertainty.

"But what about the Herrscher of Blood? What about the Earth?"

"As a representative of the imaginary side, He can replenish energy, but authority here has no growth potential. This is the most fundamental difference from me. As for the Earth, I can only trust Mei. Half of the 217 plans will prevent me from returning in time. She must have a way." Ryan was not panicked at all, and looked full of confidence, but he kept the second half of the sentence in his heart.

Crossing the end is not something that can be done with words, he has to find a way to open up an unprecedented path. The time on the imaginary side alone is not enough, and Honkai is not a fool, so he will not keep sending Herrscher to feed himself into a fat pig.

Moreover, since he missed the first and second Herrschers, he lost the chance to integrate the authority of all Herrschers like the second generation of Paramecium, so the power of the Quantum Sea became a necessity to find another way.

Ryan's eyes became deeper and deeper, as if they could penetrate the eternal night. At the end of this darkness, maybe he could see the dawn?

Chapter 378: Sustainable Exhaustion of Fish

Under the deep sea, the city has begun to take shape. In the central data room of Haiyuan City, a model is flashing on the giant holographic screen. It is an inverted triangle filled with countless symbols.

Dr. Vidic, who called himself a "twenty-year-old programmer," kept observing the model, occasionally giving his subordinates some advice, and his bald head was covered with sweat.

Bringing the director back in a short period of time is an impossible task. The quantum ocean is so vast that it can be called another universe. It does not even have approximate coordinates. It is ten thousand times more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.

But with Professor Mei standing next to him, he had to try his best to find it, at least to detect a little bit of strong Honkai energy reaction. This depended purely on luck. If it was in the deep sea, it might not be able to create too big a wave in the end.

"Why hasn't Ryan come back yet?" Alicia couldn't understand the data and yawned out of boredom.

It has been half a month and there is no news at all. Even she is getting a little anxious.

"Are you anxious?" Mei glanced at her and the relevant plan had been activated.

"May, don't you want Ryan back?"

"At least not as much as you think, and certainly not as much as Sakura thinks. It's very contradictory." Mei shook her head. Intellectually speaking, it was good for Ryan to be buried deep in the sea. He could escape the end of the world and become the most important part of the Spark Project.

Think about it, tens of thousands of years later, the post-civilization that has inherited its own legacy will welcome a new leader with full combat power, full personal charm, and full IQ. If that leader can't survive the end, no one else can.

"What I lack most is time. Even though this may be a little cruel to everyone, it is indeed the safest option."

Alicia was slightly startled, but she was not angry. Instead, she said with a smile: "You have to ask the person involved about this kind of thing. I think Ryan must be reluctant to leave everyone."

"That's inevitable, but aren't you afraid that he will never come back, or even die in the sea?"

"I'm not afraid." Alicia blinked gently, and her smile became even sweeter: "Because Ryan has already promised me that he will bear that fate. He has always been a man who keeps his promises."

Under the cold moon, in the sea of ​​flowers, the man made a promise, and the girl happily accepted it, never to doubt it again.

Your problem is indeed troublesome, and perhaps only he can solve it.

Mei glanced at Alyssia, who obviously knew everything. If there was no Spark Project, there would be no need to unlock that fate. She and Ryan were truly bound together.

"If I really dare to make the decision on my own, Ryan will be furious." Mei laughed at herself. Although she felt conflicted, she did not stop doing things.

We have to get him out and then give it a try with the fate of the entire civilization at stake.

"Dr. May, urgent message from New York."

At this time, Sene, dressed in military uniform, came hurriedly and read out without Mei's order.

"Madrid has been breached, a new plague is spreading across the peninsula, and the medicine left by Dr. Mebius has lost its effect."

Bad news, another stronghold is lost, fortunately most of the population has been moved out.

"The Herrscher of Death has been dispatched again. Even if Ryan has taken away the Ninth and Tenth Herrschers, we are still under great pressure." Mei silently took the document and ordered: "The [Exploration] [Discipline] team will be stationed in Great Britain for alert and transport the remaining population of Western Europe to the island as soon as possible. The [Rectification] team will maintain the Atlantic route. Let's do this for now."

"Yes."

Except for the disabled and seriously injured, most of the fusion warriors have recovered. Mei now at least has a card to play. Even if a detachment cannot defeat the Herrscher, they can withdraw by taking turns to provide cover.

"Won't you praise me for this genius idea?" Alicia stretched her face forward, put her hands on her hips, and looked very proud.

"Ellie, I've praised you several times." Mei rolled her eyes and roughly estimated in her mind, "Anna was killed, Mebius and Hua sank into the sea with Ryan, and our opponents are still formidable."

"The Ruler of Constraints can't hold back so many of us, right? Besides, didn't those Honkai beasts and traitors suffer heavy losses?"

"So they are accumulating strength, and the Thousand Herrscher and the Constraint Herrscher don't come out. I'm always worried that there is a conspiracy. We are waiting, and they are waiting too." Mei sighed, and finally understood what Ryan meant by 'waiting is the most painful thing'.

There is no need to worry, there must be a conspiracy. The main problem of the Ruler of Constraints now is that he does not have enough energy. If there is a way to make His energy level skyrocket, it would be terrifying.

When the main force retreated, the restraining force became more concentrated, and even Ryan could not move at all. Fortunately, the Herrscher of Blood was taken away by design, otherwise if the two Herrschers cooperated with each other, humans would have already lost.

"It's really beyond my ability to play this game of chess alone against Honkai. Even the slightest mistake could lead to the end of civilization."

May muttered to herself that she was the last person to fear in the South American war, and if Ryan hadn't considered the worst-case scenario, everyone would have died.

"Dr. Mei, there's the latest news from headquarters." Sene came back with an even uglier expression.

"Just read out what the bad news is."

"The Ruler of Constraint has appeared. He has just annihilated the Second Atlantic Fleet..."

As he was speaking, the big screen flashed and switched to satellite images. More than 20 giant steel ships were seen floating on the sea. The 100,000-ton aircraft carrier was like a ghost ship. Under thermal detection, it only felt the sharpest cold.

Not to mention the Honkai energy engines, artillery, and missiles, not even a mouse could be seen. The sea was filled with dead fish, and thousands of people were killed in an instant.

"He destroyed the Second Fleet and headed for the Antarctic Sanctuary." Sene said the second half of the sentence bitterly.

Really, the Antarctic Sanctuary?

Mei knew that there were huge amounts of supplies stored there. In addition to weapons and raw materials, there were also a large number of daily necessities and food to feed the human beings who now had little arable land.

"Let the garrison withdraw and send the supplies to the Herrscher. There's no need for fearless sacrifice." Mei thought for a second and made the decision. Millions of tons of supplies were worthless like pieces of paper.

There was total silence in the central database, as everyone knew that if they abandoned the shelter, even if nothing was done about it, starvation would be enough to wipe out more than 80% of the human race.

Mei's face was expressionless, she just felt her whole body getting colder. There was nothing she could do about it, the Ruler of Constraint was too ruthless. Apart from concentrating absolute forces to share the constraints, sending a few detachments over would be like sending meat, and their hearts would stop beating in an instant.

But the Ruler of Constraint is not only a cheater, but also incredibly thick-skinned. How can he concentrate his forces while moving so quickly?

She glanced at the worried Alysia and said with a wry smile, "It seems like it won't work if he doesn't come back."

......

"I don't know if Mei can handle it."

Ryan looked at the eternal night with a heavy heart. The collapse of the previous civilization was already very intense, and the Herrscher who was endowed with subjective initiative would not be disconnected. He and Mei had been barely coping with it all along.

"Brother, are you reminded of something emotional by the scene?" Hua approached quietly, his eyes as if he had night vision.

She could see that in just one night, the extremely fertile fields outside the town were already beginning to have problems, the leaves were turning yellow, the fruits were rotting, and the golden waves of wheat were beginning to wither.

"The destruction of a world always makes people sigh, because our hometown is not much better. There are too many loopholes that can be exploited. In the past, all my plans were to take the initiative and hide these loopholes."

"You can't hide it now?"

"Well, since I'm not here, the Herrschers can carry out their true mission without being led by me."

Ryan spread his hands. He once created an illusion, which was to bind the individual to the entire human race. This aroused enough hatred and made the Herrscher regard him as the top priority.

This is very dangerous, but individuals do not have as many loopholes as the entire group, so when the Herrscher of Death began to fight guerrilla warfare, he hurriedly jumped out to continue attracting hatred.
