Time in a collapsing world

"Big brother?"

"It's me." Li slightly blocked the muzzle of the others' guns with his body to prevent them from firing when they were nervous, which would be bad.

Li checked Xi's body several times. Well... it was intact, not even a scratch could be seen.

This is also thanks to the Herrscher of Death who repaired himself before he died. Otherwise, even if Xi's consciousness could be restored, he would probably die directly from his injuries.

"It's amazing that you can still survive after being possessed by the Herrscher..." Mei's voice sounded, "It seems that your ability has some hidden functions that we don't know about~"

"I do not know either……"

Li really didn't know about this. He only knew that his ability could make creatures remain immortal without a heart. Who would have thought that it would have the same effect on the Herrscher's core?

However, is this a good thing?

"Then before confirming that this girl has truly turned back into a human being, we must first take her into custody." Mei adjusted the channel and gave the next order. Ten minutes later, a medical vehicle arrived and stopped steadily in Li. on the edge.

Two members of the Fire Chasing Moth who were responsible for medical treatment got out of the car with a stretcher and carried Xi up with Li's help.

"Big brother……?"

Xi showed some panic and struggled to get down, but because he was too mentally weak, he could only be sent up without any resistance.

"You shouldn't use her as a material for experiments, right?" Li asked just in case.

"No." Mei said firmly, "For ordinary humans, the Fire Chaser Moth will not kill them for no reason."

"Really?" Li recalled the crazy scientists in the base and felt increasingly uneasy.

"Don't worry, I will remind them that this is the first person that a fusion warrior has personally saved. I believe that no matter how crazy they are, they still have to consider whether their small bodies can withstand your punch." Mei saw it. Li's general thoughts, he casually comforted, "Or, you can also come forward to persuade them in person?"

"Thank you then." Li thanked her sincerely, "But let's just convince him personally."

"If you really want to thank me, just donate yourself. I am very interested in your body now~"

"...This is unnecessary."

……

At the end of the war, people from several combat teams got into their vehicles one after another. Although the sun was about to rise, they still hoped to take advantage of this time to catch up on some sleep and nap for a while.

The cleaning of the battlefield is the responsibility of other departments. It seems that Velvet works in such a department?

Sitting in the car, Li opened his eyes and looked around, and found that almost everyone was sleeping with a gun in his arms. The only exception was him and Alicia. Alicia used a bow as a weapon, so naturally He won't sleep with it in his arms, and Li's biggest weapon is himself, so what should he do? Hug yourself?

Li took out the pistol from his waist and stared at it depressedly. Although he usually didn't use it, he still hoped that Fire Chaser Moth would give him a big one.

"Li? You're not sleeping either?" At this time, Alicia's voice came from Li's left. She leaned against the car window and looked at Li through the reflection above.

"How can you sleep here?"

After experiencing such an exciting battle, Li really couldn't sleep. Although she was not in danger of her life, she still couldn't calm down from the surging feeling.

"What a coincidence, so am I~?" Alicia turned her head and looked at him with a smile, "Li, the core of the Herrscher should still be in you, right?"

"Yes." Li knocked on a box on his lap. Inside was the core of Herrscher of Death. He didn't expect that Mei would eventually ask him to be responsible for delivering the core to the base. He was just a recruit. !

"Can you let me take a look?" Alicia wanted to reach out and touch the box, but was slapped back by Li.

"It's better not to watch it. It will be bad if something happens. Isn't there a similar scene in the movie? Rebirth through other people's bodies or something." Li Yizheng sternly rejected Alicia's request. .

He does have such concerns. After all, in addition to [death], the Herrscher also has the power of [life]. If Alicia is attracted by the core, they combine and become a new Herrscher, then All the people in their car will suffer.

"Well... when did you become so timid, Li? You used to like to cause trouble so much~?"

...In the past, Mebius would help him settle whatever trouble he caused, but if something happened to the Herrscher Core in his hands, the trouble would be beyond what Mebius's little scientist could solve.

"Anyway, if it doesn't work, it won't work."

"Okay, okay, since you are so determined, let's forget it~?" After saying that, Alicia's topic turned to the battle just now, "Li, can you tell me about the Herrscher's body?" What does it feel like after taking out the core?"

"Feeling?" This question is not difficult to answer. Li thought about it for a moment, "It seems like that... because my target is the core of Herrscher, so when I put my hand in, I can't touch anything else except the core. …”

"Li, your answer is wrong~?"

"what?"

"I'm talking about how you feel after taking out the core~?"

"..." Li was silent. How did it feel after taking out the core? Hmm... does it refer to the changes in the contours of the piece in his body that is suspected to be the Herrscher's core? It shouldn't be. How could Alicia know about this...?

"Alicia, I don't quite understand what you said. Can you explain it in detail?"

"Eh? Don't you understand?" Alicia tilted her head, "I-am-saying, Li, did you feel any physical discomfort after directly contacting the Herrscher's core? If something goes wrong, you should go check it out early. Yeah~?”

"So that's it..." Li breathed out, frightening him to death. He thought that his secret was about to be exposed. If Alicia knew that she also had a piece of something suspected to be the Herrscher's core in her body, she didn't know what she would do. I will simply forget about my old feelings and dig out my heart and lungs.

"Li, what do you think I'm going to ask?" Alicia stretched out a hand and touched Li's chest, "So, what do you think? How do you feel after taking the core out of this position on that girl's body?"

"No, I don't feel anything, everything is normal." Li unnaturally took away Alicia's hand on her chest, always feeling like she was going to dig into him at any time.

Alicia's hand is placed in the wrong way. The tips of these five fingers are touching it. It's very scary, isn't it?

"Really? I don't believe it."

"Really! And wouldn't it be better not to feel anything? Do you still hope that something will happen to me?"

"Pfft! Okay, okay, I'm teasing you. Of course I hope you'll be fine~?" Alicia covered her mouth and smiled, "But, you're so nervous, is there really something wrong?"

"Ahem, you're thinking too much." Li waved her hand quickly.

Alicia was really scary, and Li couldn't tell her true inner thoughts through her smile.
