We are from the future ark

Chen Qi looked at the three women in the room, was slightly stunned, and asked subconsciously.

"call……"

However, after seeing Chen Qi return, the three women all breathed a sigh of relief. Although Huang and Shuangxing did not appear so anxious, they were also worried.

"You're back." Ifrit breathed a sigh of relief and came to Chen Qi's side, but after a while he saw Vina's figure beside him, and his face fell slightly again.

"...Ms. Ifrit, long time no see."

However, it was Vina who broke the silence. Facing Ifrit's somewhat incredible gaze, Vina smiled lazily and said lightly:

"As you can see, I now know the same thing you know."

"So, you can believe that I am on your side now."

Vina stated her position in just a few words. Her eyes swept across everyone present, but stayed on Frost Star for a moment.

"...A new face. Is this your new team member?"

"Ah, this is Froststar, she is indeed a new member."

Seeing that Vina's eyes were fixed on Frost Star, Chen Qi began to introduce them. Vina had seen Huang and Ifrit before, but she had no impression of Frost Star.

Vina took a few steps towards Frost Star. After the two women, who had never met before, looked at each other, they both smiled kindly at each other.

"Nice to meet you, Frost Star." Vina said this, and suddenly thought of something. She took out a candy from her pocket and handed it to Frost Star.

"...Do you like candy too?"

When Frost Star saw the candy that Vina handed over, she was slightly stunned. However, it was this action that made Frost Star feel a little favorable towards Vina.

...reminded Shuang Xing of the time when she first tried to get close to Chen Qi, and she also used candies to try to get closer to him.

"I also want candy here, you can try it."

As Frost Star spoke, he took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to Vina, then reminded her, "It's very spicy, please be prepared."

"My taste is not acceptable to ordinary people." Vina said lightly, and took the candy handed to her by Frost Star. Then she turned around and handed Chen Qi a handful of candy she took out of her pocket.

"Here, you haven't tried it yet, right? These are homemade candies made by the palace based on my taste. They taste great."

"Hmm... sour." Frost Star was the first person to eat Vina's candy. After tasting it for a while, she felt a sweet and sour taste and couldn't help but become quite interested.

"Indeed, it's sweet and sour." Chen Qi was the second one to eat it, and he echoed the same.

"Is it delicious?" Ifrit looked at the candy in his hand, opened the package, and tasted it curiously...

“—Puff! Ugh! That’s so sour aaaaaaaaaah!!!”

The next second, Ifrit's reaction was extremely violent. He spat out the candy in his mouth and his whole face was wrinkled.

However, Ifrit was still a step too slow, and Huang had already put the candy into his mouth, and the next moment, Huang also sprayed it out.

"So sour! So sour! It's a hundred times sourer than lemon!"

"…I'm sorry, my sense of taste is not very sensitive. I should have warned you."

Frost Star looked at Huang and Ifrit's extreme reactions, and after a moment of pause, he apologized.

She had forgotten that her sense of taste had not yet fully recovered. The taste she could feel... would probably be earth-shattering in other people's mouths.

"You guys really don't know how to appreciate." Seeing Ifrit and Huang's extreme reactions, Vina pointed at Chen Qi and said:

"Look at Chen Qi, he doesn't react at all. This is the work of the royal family."

"..."

However, Chen Qi did not respond when he heard this. He just silently chewed the candy in his mouth, then broke it into pieces and swallowed it.

However, this action fell into the eyes of Frost Star who was standing next to him. After being slightly stunned, Frost Star couldn't help but have some strange thoughts.

……

"Ifrit."

The simple meeting ended quickly, and just when everyone returned to their rooms to rest, Frost Star suddenly visited Ifrit's room.

"Frost Star?" Ifrit couldn't help but feel a little surprised when she saw the person coming. She was wearing pajamas and was just about to go to bed, so what was she doing here?

"Is there anything you need?"

"..."

However, Frost Star did not answer Ifrit's question immediately, but quietly locked the room, and slightly used the Originium skill to attach a thin layer of ice around the gap in the door to block out all sounds.

After doing all this, Frost Star looked at Ifrit again and said lightly:

"Ifrit, what I am going to say next is related to Chen Qi."

"…Maybe I am just worrying too much, but you are probably the only one who can ask about Chen Qi's current condition."

"……What's the meaning?"

Looking at Frost Star's serious face, Ifrit's expression gradually stiffened, and a strong sense of foreboding began to spread in his heart.

Chen Qi...did something happen?

Chapter 98: Chen Qi's End, Ifrit's Final Decision

Late at night on the second day, at this moment, the action plan of Noah's team had reached the final stage.

"Well... now that we know where the Regent is hiding, all that's left is to make a plan to kill him in one fell swoop."

"As long as the regent of Victoria dies, Kazdel and his private army in many key places controlled by Victoria will collapse. By then, Vina will be able to find an opportunity to let Victoria regain control in the name of the crown prince."

"——Of course, the assassination may not be successful. Our additional target is the archive of Victoria's lifeblood hidden somewhere else by the Regent."

"If the assassination fails, then Hei and Sister Jessica will immediately burn and destroy the archives there."

"Although Victoria will be paralyzed for a period of time if this is done, without the archives, the Regent's control over Victoria will be completely gone. In this way, it will be meaningless for him to stay in Victoria."

"But... this plan is very radical. If Victoria falls into crisis during this period, it will be very passive."

After explaining all the pros and cons clearly, Chen Qi looked at Vina in front of him again. Although Vina's expression was very indifferent at the moment, Chen Qi could feel that Vina was thinking and hesitating.

"…The choice is yours, Your Majesty Vina."

"We will do our best to complete the first plan, but we have to consider everything. We also need your approval for the second plan."

"…Now, there is no way back."

After a moment of silence, Vina said calmly: "Rather than perishing in the hands of the Regent, I would rather Victoria experience an unprecedented paralysis."

"As long as this country returns to the control of our royal family and escapes from Kazdel's control, then we will have the strength to compete with other countries."

"——It's just that our people have to suffer and experience an unprecedented storm."

Vina said this, exhaled slowly, and after a moment of silence, she said to Chen Qi indifferently:

"I want to be alone now... I want to talk to Indra and the others."

"Chen Qi, as for you guys... just do as you think."

After that, Vina really had nothing to say. The fact is indeed as Vina said, Victoria now has no other choice.

Rather than becoming a puppet under Kazdel's control, it would be better to... let him turn things around once and for all!

No one knows what Victoria will become after starting over.

Vina left, her slightly lonely yet determined back slowly disappearing into the night.

Chen Qi and his team will eventually start their action. Now that everything is ready, they will truly begin the mission of Noah's team.

"…Are you hungry? Do you need something to eat?"

However, everyone slowly dispersed and returned to their rooms, and looking at Chen Qi who was packing up the information, Ifrit suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?" Chen Qi was slightly stunned, and subconsciously touched his stomach. After a long while, he smiled faintly and said, "Now that you mention it, it is indeed a little bit."

"...I'll make you something to eat."

Ifrit said this, seeming to notice Chen Qi's slightly stunned expression, and revealed a somewhat arrogant and dissatisfied expression.

"What... With that expression, do I know how to cook?"

"...I hope you don't blow up the kitchen like you did last time. The chef in Rhodes Island has told me several times that you are forbidden to use the kitchen as a laboratory."

Chen Qi gave a bitter smile, but still sat down obediently and said to Ifrit, "I'll wait. Please ask Lord Ifrit to make me something delicious."

"...Just wait."

However, despite such "provocation", Ifrit was not angry at all. After showing a smile, he said this to Chen Qi.

……

This time, Ifrit's cooking skills were indeed much more normal. It would be more accurate to say that the reason why she caused such great damage in the kitchen in the past was because she always wanted to experiment with the combination of certain ingredients and come up with some innovations.

As someone who spends most of her time in the laboratory, Ifrit must know how to cook instant noodles in a beaker. Therefore, although her cooking skills are not good, the food is still edible.

"Here, soup noodles, just eat some."

"Thank you." Chen Qi looked at the bowl of noodle soup in front of him that had just come out of the pot. The soup was quite watery with some vegetable leaves and meat particles on top. Although it was light, Chen Qi didn't care.

Since this was the first time Ifrit had made a meal that was edible, he should have eaten this level of food with gratitude.

Chen Qi took a bite slowly, slowly savoring the taste of the noodle soup. A look flashed across Ifrit's eyes, and he asked with a hint of anticipation:

"Is it tasty?"

"...It's pretty good." Chen Qi smiled and said lightly: "No need to say, it's delicious."

"..."

However, Chen Qi's praise did not bring a single smile from Ifrit. Ifrit looked at Chen Qi, who was eating noodles with his head down, for a long time before he said calmly:

"…I added a full half bag of salt to it."

"..."

As Ifrit's words just fell, Chen Qi, who was eating noodles with his head down, froze. After a long time, he slowly raised his head and put down the fork in his hand.

"If everything is alright, I'll go back."

"stop!"

However, just as Chen Qi stood up, Ifrit behind him shouted at him, stopping him immediately.

Chen Qi didn't dare to stop, because he heard Ifrit's crying voice behind him.

"...When did your sense of taste disappear?" Ifrit slowly came to Chen Qi's side and pulled him over. At this moment, the woman who had been bleeding and sweating without blinking, had two lines of tears slowly falling.

"When was it? Was it the time when you fainted because you overexerted your Originium skills?!"

"... About the same." Chen Qi shrugged helplessly, recalled carefully, and said lightly: "After waking up that time, when I ate liquid food for the first time... I couldn't taste anything for some reason."

"I didn't pay much attention to it before, I thought it was liquid food, but then I realized...I lost my sense of taste."

"It's probably because my Originium technique caused some sensory disturbance in my brain, which led to a side effect... It's just a small matter."

“……凯尔希医生让你戴上束缚器，就是为了让你少施展一点源石技艺。”伊芙利特看着面前这个满脸无所谓的心爱的人，心中是真的涌上一股怒气，让她想把面前的这个人狠狠的揍一顿。

"Why, why didn't you tell me?! Your Originium Technique is taking your life?!"

"...Tell you, and then let me transfer the emotions in my [Emotional Infection] to you?" Chen Qi shook his head and looked at Ifrit and said lightly:

"I will go crazy. Believe me, I will go crazy. If I didn't have this thing in my head, I wouldn't dare to guarantee such huge data. I don't know if I can support my Originium skills."

"Ifrit, you know, there is an artificial chip in my brain that is directly connected to my brain. The moment my Originium skills are received, they will all be converted into data and stored in this capacity."

"Without this, how could I possibly perform more Originium techniques for the first time? Ordinary people simply cannot accept such a huge amount of data, and their brains cannot accept the impact of such a huge amount of data."

"...It's a little funny to say this, but the end of my life has been planned since the day I was created."

There are only two possibilities: death due to excessive use of Originium skills, or... death due to the Chimera's short lifespan.

Death is inevitable, but the death date of others is unpredictable, but Chen Qi knows when his life will end.

"…I'm sorry, Ifrit."

"I might... die soon."
