Chapter 245

'Could it be because of Kallen?' Mei suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. Being stared at by Yae Sakura really did make her feel cold! This... this has a bad feeling!

"If you're doing this for Kallen," MEI changed the subject, "Kallen is no longer here."

"You don't need to look at me like that. The connection between me and Kallen is not what you think."

"I am not Kallen, Kallen is not me."

"I can only use Kallen's identity."

"Oh," Yae Sakura replied simply, "I know."

'No... what do you know?' MEI suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

I regret it!

This was the first time MEI had ever felt regret!

Why the hell do you have to be curious about this?

What exactly is Yae Sakura trying to do?

"But you no longer have a body in the outside world," MEI said. "If you go out..."

"I know," Yae Sakura interrupted Mei, "That's why you keep asking this."

"Does this mean they want me to stay here?"

"No, that's not it." MEI shook her head and said, "Everyone has the right to decide their own destiny. Do you plan to stay here or return to the outside world?"

"This is your own decision, and I have no right to interfere."

"I'm just offering some suggestions based on the current situation."

"After all, this is a real problem."

"Your body is gone."

"I know," Yae Sakura nodded and said, "But it's not entirely impossible. If you want to go to the outside world, return to the real world, and accomplish the things you want to do."

"There is a way."

"What method?" MEI looked at Yae Sakura.

Way?

Um...

MEI seems to know a way, following the game's settings.

Yae Sakura will 'borrow' Mei's body for a while.

So...

Is this the time for her to bring Mei here?

Hmm, something feels off!

"Of course!"

Just then, Yae Sakura suddenly moved. Mei, who was moving so fast, could barely react before Yae Sakura pounced on her and pinned her down.

Yae Sakura pressed her entire body against MEI.

His thighs were staring intently at MEI's private parts.

She gently stroked Mei's face with one hand, played with Mei's hair, and whispered in Mei's ear, "I want to borrow your body for a while."

Is that alright?

"Kallen".

"Eh... Eh?!?!"

MEI was shocked!

This was the first time she had ever been so panicked!

No...

Something's not right here!

Why borrow her body?

No, shouldn't we be borrowing Mei's body at this time? Aren't you Mei's soul awakening? What are you doing borrowing my body? And what are you trying to do with this ambiguous posture?!

No.

Something's not right with you!

"No, no, no, no!" MEI cried out in a panic, "You can't! You can't do this to Yae Sakura!"

"I want to emphasize again, I am not Kallen."

"I'm really not Kallen."

"And you can't use my body."

"No! If you need me, I can recommend someone!"

"Hey, let's talk this out."

"Don't touch me!"

This isn't right!

How did it suddenly switch from free content to paid content?

Please don't do that!

Let's talk this out!

This can't be happening, Yae Sakura!

Knock knock knock~

Just then, several footsteps were heard in the corridor, and then they stopped.

Then...

"No! Wait a minute!" Mei looked at the group with almost despair and said, "Wait! Mei! It's not what you think, no! That! It's not!"

"No! Mei, wait a minute. I have something very important to ask you to do!"

"Mei!"

In the real world.

Redhead and Himeko waited anxiously.

What exactly happened in the darkroom? The contact time was fast approaching, yet there seemed to be no movement from inside. So, did they succeed or fail this time?

If it succeeds, then that's fine.

But what if it fails?

If it fails, then the door to the darkroom has been opened.

Wouldn't that mean the only and last line of defense would be completely destroyed?

The entire base will be infected.

Although the base is isolated from the outside world, if people outside don't know what's happening and rashly open the base, the success or failure is uncertain.

Then the outside world will also be infected.

A massive Honkai is about to occur.

If this happens...

No one can bear this.

What do we do now?

Redhead couldn't sit still any longer; he glanced at Himeko.

This was a female soldier from Area 11 who was older than me.

Should we ask for her opinion?

She's a soldier, and Valkyrie. Her perspectives and opinions should be more insightful than mine, right?

"It's almost time to open." The Redhead glanced at his watch and tried to appear calm as he asked, "Major Himeko, what do you think of the situation inside?"

Redhead didn't directly ask if they wanted the gate opened.

However, if Himeko's estimate is optimistic...

He could consider it.

Of course, if things aren't looking good, Redhead plans to postpone it a little.

"From my personal feelings and thoughts," Himeko said, not giving the Redhead man much thought. Since he asked, she'd just give a brief answer.

"I trust Theresa completely, and I also believe in my students. And I think Artoria is very strong too."

"With them inside, nothing too serious should happen."

"They may have already persuaded the Demon in the Box to surrender."

"Of course." Himeko paused for a moment and said, "I feel that even the worst-case scenario is that the Demon in the Box has been resealed."

"The Demon in the Box doesn't seem to be able to defeat Artoria."

"Then, from a practical point of view?" Redhead asked again.

"I'm afraid I can't explain that," Himeko said, shaking her head. "Because there's no evidence or information, I can't draw any conclusions about the opposing side."

"Soldiers must be realistic and pragmatic."

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Or a false report."

'Ha, this is just fabricating military intelligence, making optimistic estimates, and altering simulations,' Redhead thought to himself. 'Isn't this an old tradition of you Japanese soldiers from Area 11?'

"Now we emphasize seeking truth from facts."

It's highly likely they just don't want to take the blame.

Of course, Himeko shouldn't be blamed for this either.

Well, never mind.

Someone always has to make the decision.

Moreover, Himeko was right about some things; this Herrscher from the previous era does seem to be no match for Artoria.

As long as Artoria is around, she's the pillar of stability! Besides, she was the strongest doctor of the last era. So even if she's bad, she can't be that bad, right?

It's roughly like this.

"Let's go!" Redhead said, glancing at the time. "The Doctor should be able to resolve this smoothly, right?"

Although Redhead wasn't the highest-ranking or most senior officer here, he had a decision-making power in this matter that no one else possessed.

Since he has already made up his mind.

Let's begin.

"Click~ Click~ Click~"

The heavy, massive mechanical door clattered with a metallic clanging sound as it slowly opened.

Redhead's heart began to clench as the door opened.

What was the final result?

It's done?

Or did it fail?

What exactly happened?

The gate slowly opened, and gradually several figures appeared inside.

It seems like...
