Let's Go to Shenzhou to Find the Immortal! / Ling Xi Wants to Build a Home with Sirin.
"Um."
Sirin nodded gently, appearing very calm. The core had given her not only power, but also mind. "They... took everything from me, so... I killed them all, leaving no one alive, because... I have power now!"
As she spoke, Sirin looked at Ling Xi with a hint of excitement and said as if she wanted to take credit, "Ling Xi, look, I have power now. I can control power. We... we can take revenge. We can kill all those humans who hurt us. This world... doesn't need such filthy creatures as humans."
"Yes, you have power now."
Ling Xi tentatively reached out her right hand and stroked Sirin's head. Sirin did not resist and even showed a look of enjoyment. It seems that even if she has become a Herrscher of Law, Sirin is still Sirin. This point is very important.
"But we have to leave."
Ling Xi knew the script going to go. Tomorrow at noon, the investigation team dispatched by Schicksal Theresa would arrive, along with Siegfried and Yang, the Anti-Entropy Leader. With Sirin's current strength, facing any one of those three would basically be suicide...
Therefore, we must take Sirin away before the people from Schicksal and Anti-Entropy arrive.
"Why?"
However, Sirin seemed somewhat displeased, saying, "They're all dead, why should we leave? This is our territory now."
"Because this is the Babylon Laboratory of Schicksal!"
Ling Xi put her arms around Sirin's shoulders and said seriously, "Schicksal will definitely know what happened tonight. At the latest, Schicksal's Valkyrie force will arrive by noon tomorrow. And S-rank Valkyrie are extremely powerful. If they find out about us..."
"It doesn't matter."
Sirin interrupted Ling Xi, then gently touched Ling Xi's face and confidently smiled, "Ling Xi, I have power now, immense power. Even the Valkyrie of Schicksal is no match for me. Moreover... I can sense the energy I need beneath this laboratory. I must stay here to absorb enough power, so I won't leave, nor is there any need for me to leave. And..."
"I still need to take revenge. The price humanity has paid for Bella and the others is far from enough!"
"Forehead..."
Ling Xi didn't know what to say. Sure enough, this girl started to get arrogant after gaining power. Sirin... there's a reason why this girl is called a pufferfish.
I want to be with you.
Helpless, Ling Xi could only resort to words. He gently hugged Sirin and said earnestly, "Sirin, I like you, that's why I want to protect you. I hope you can be happier under my protection, so..."
Ling Xi said with utmost seriousness, "That's why I don't want you to seek revenge and live in hatred. Besides... haven't we already avenged Bella and the others? Everyone who hurt us in the lab has disappeared..."
"So Sirin, please stop thinking about taking revenge on humans, okay? We... can live a good life together!"
This was Ling Xi's last effort, hoping to change Sirin's mind before she made up her mind to seek revenge. Otherwise... she would have no choice but to stand on the side of humanity and "subdue" Sirin, after all...
In this era, there are still many people who need our protection!
"Hmm..."
Faced with Ling Xi's sudden attack, Sirin was initially surprised and a little shy, but as she listened to Ling Xi's words, she gradually calmed down. She knew she had the power to avenge Bella and the others, and she could do it, but...
"Ugh... Okay, I... I'll listen to you."
Sirin hesitated for a long time, but finally nodded, choosing to believe Ling Xi. Compared to Bella and the others, Ling Xi was the most important person now. Although she wanted revenge, she absolutely didn't want to go against Ling Xi's wishes. Although she now had enough power to not need Ling Xi's protection, and could even protect Ling Xi herself, but...
I still crave that feeling of being protected.
"That's good!"
Seeing that Sirin agreed so easily, Ling Xi breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that as long as Sirin's desire for revenge was suppressed at its source, Sirin could still be well controlled, preventing her from becoming an enemy of all humanity and ultimately heading down the path of self-destruction.
"Hey-hey..."
Seeing Ling Xi's smile, Sirin felt very gratified. She had agreed for no other reason than for Ling Xi.
"But I still want to absorb energy."
Although Sirin agreed, she still wanted the energy at the bottom of the tower because that energy would make her stronger.
"Well, alright, but we have to leave before dawn."
Ling Xi hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't stop them. According to the comics, Theresa and the others should arrive around noon tomorrow...
So, should I leave the lab with Sirin now, or wait until tomorrow to be picked up by Theresa and the others?
Ling Xi only thought about the question briefly before choosing the former without hesitation. She decisively decided to escape with Sirin, since with Schicksal's technology, they could definitely discover Sirin's situation, so...
I need to leave with Sirin beforehand, otherwise we'll definitely be exposed once Sirin is taken back to Schicksal!
It's a pity. If St. Freya Academy were still there, I could trust Theresa this time and take Sirin to the St. Freya Academy. After all, St. Freya Academy will be full of Herrscher in the future. But now...
St. Freya Academy hadn't been established yet, and Theresa was still just Valkyrie belonging to the Schicksal Headquarters, so...
We absolutely must not follow Theresa back to our Schicksal.
After all, Schicksal now has top-tier combat power like Cecilia, as well as her father-in-law and Theresa. If Sirin goes to Schicksal with her current level, it would be suicide.
Chapter 601: Let's go to the Shenzhou to find the Immortal!
After a brief moment of thought, Ling Xi rejected the idea of going to Schicksal, but where to go next was also a question worth considering for Ling Xi, since the world was basically in a bipolar opposition between Schicksal and Anti-Entropy!
The Immortal, who was the guardian of Shenzhou, was seriously injured, which led to the deal between the Immortal and Otto. Otto's Schicksal was to protect Shenzhou, while the Immortal would serve that Schicksal. Therefore, Shenzhou is not actually the best choice now...
Wait, Shenzhou? Immortal?
In the original story, the Immortal was killed by his seven disciples, which caused his Sword Heart to never fully recover, leading to his weakened state and his subsequent deal with Otto. However...
In this timeline, because of his existence, the Immortal's Sword Heart had long since been repaired. And with the Immortal's strength, let alone Shenzhou, without the appearance of the Fused Warrior from the Previous Era, the Immortal could have easily wiped out the entire world, so...
When in doubt, consult the Immortal!
Immortal, my current situation is not optimistic, but if I can find the Immortal, then all problems will be solved. After all... even if the Immortal is currently serving the Mandate of Schicksal, would the Immortal oppose the Schicksal for my sake? Obviously, he would!
Therefore, as long as they can find the Immortal, then he and Sirin will be absolutely safe, after all...
The Immortal of this era still represent the pinnacle of combat power in the current civilization!
However, according to the plot, the Immortal didn't intervene at first. He only appeared when Schicksal was about to crumble and Cheng Lixue was on the verge of death. As for the Immortal now...
Could they still be on Mount Tai Xu?
So...
I should go back to Mount Tai Xu myself!
Ling Xi then made a decision to return to Mount Tai Xu in Shenzhou to find the Immortal.
Although Ling Xi felt that after finding the Immortal, he would most likely be Immortal first, there was nothing he could do. Five hundred years ago... no, for him, it should only be less than a day ago. It was truly an accident.
Afterwards, Sirin and Ling Xi went to the Honkai Reactor at the bottom of the laboratory, where Honkai Energy was being released continuously, which was Sirin's favorite thing.
However, this didn't seem to be of much use to Ling Xi. After all, the upper limit of Honkai Energy that her body could withstand was still too low. It's like if you can eat three bowls of rice, then even if there were ten bowls of rice in front of you, you still wouldn't be able to eat them!
"Sirin, you stay here by yourself for a while, I'll be right back."
With about two or three hours until dawn and nothing else to do, Ling Xi decided to do something.
Where are you going?
As soon as Ling Xi finished speaking, Sirin looked at Ling Xi nervously, as if afraid that Ling Xi would leave her side.
"Take some food to them."
Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "The people from the Schicksal will probably arrive tomorrow morning, but you still have some little girls locked up in the prison. I'm afraid they won't last until noon tomorrow, so I plan to send them some food."
"Mmm... uh!"
Sirin didn't refuse, nodded, and asked, "We... aren't we taking them with us?"
"That won't be necessary..."
Ling Xi smiled again and said, "I think among the Valkyrie coming tomorrow, there should be Valkyrie named Theresa. She is a relatively gentle and kind Valkyrie. It won't be a problem to leave them with Theresa."
Ling Xi knew the plot and that her mother-in-law and aunt were preparing to establish St. Freya Academy at this time. The girls locked up here should be the first batch of students of the St. Freya Academy.
"Snort..."
Sirin gave a quiet hum and didn't say anything, but it was clear that Ling Xi's words in defense of the Valkyrie had displeased her. After these days of experiments, she also knew what the Valkyrie was like.
After all, the reason why he and those innocent girls had to endure such cruel experiments was to make the Valkyrie stronger, wasn't it?
Therefore, Sirin has absolutely no good feelings towards the Valkyrie.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
Ling Xi knew that Sirin was a little unhappy, so she didn't linger any longer and went to take care of her business.
Of course, besides bringing food to those girls, Ling Xi's main purpose was to lick their bags!
Since he didn't have any currency from this era on him, although he had some gold and other things in his System Space, it wasn't appropriate for him to exchange them in a high-profile manner right now. So Ling Xi decided to loot the loot boxes. These soldiers and researchers should have some cash on them, more or less.
Ling Xi was well aware that you can't get anywhere without money.
So, Ling Xi simply licked a few packets of food, then quietly left some for the remaining surviving girls before finally returning to Sirin's side.
When Ling Xi discovered that Sirin was still quietly absorbing Honkai Energy, Ling Xi didn't sit idle. She took out her phone to contact Little Klein and see if Klein could reach Fu Hua. If so, it would be best if Fu Hua could come and pick her up in person.
But...
It doesn't seem like that will work, because the Fourth Divine Key no longer exists in this era, and Ling Xi's phone was specially prepared by the Doctor, so it seems unable to connect to the modern network. This is a bit awkward...
"Sirin, let's go."
Around six in the morning, Sirin had been absorbing Honkai Energy for an hour, and Ling Xi decided to take her with him. No matter what, they would return to Shenzhou first.
"Okay..."
Although Sirin was somewhat reluctant, since staying here would make her stronger, she still decided to listen to Ling Xi and avoid contact with the Valkyrie of Schicksal, even though Sirin felt that she had no reason to be afraid.
Sirin hugged Ling Xi tightly, and the two flew out of the Babylon Laboratory together. At the same time, she asked, "Ling Xi, how should we leave? If we fly, I probably won't be able to fly for long."
Although Sirin is the Herrscher of the Void, she is not in her complete form at the moment. Moreover, because Ling Xi took her away in a hurry, she did not fully absorb her Honkai Energy. If this continues, she will probably run out of energy in two hours at most!
"Don't worry, I have a car."
Ling Xi didn't choose to drive the car in the lab, because those cars were probably equipped with GPS tracking systems. So, Ling Xi decisively used her own car, and then...
Ling Xi was embarrassed to find that her current size made it difficult to drive a large vehicle, and because of the snow, ordinary vehicles simply could not be driven out.
"Um, that..."
Finally, Ling Xi could only look at Sirin silently and say somewhat awkwardly, "Sirin, why don't you fly with me for a while? We can take a car after we get to the nearest city."
Sirin "..."
In the end, Sirin could only fly away from the Babylon Laboratory with Ling Xi. However, this place was just too remote, and Ling Xi used the phone she found to search the map, only to discover that the nearest city was more than 300 kilometers away...
No wonder that guy said no test subject had ever left the lab alive, because...
For ordinary people, even if they manage to escape from the laboratory, they will eventually freeze to death in this icy wasteland!
Fortunately, our little angel Sirin can fly, otherwise Ling Xi would probably only be able to wait for Theresa and the others to arrive, or wait for her strength to recover before flying on her sword.
Strange, what are you doing in my house?. jpg
Chapter 602: Ling Xi wants to have a home with Sirin.
With the power of the Herrscher of the Void, Sirin was incredibly fast. Together with Ling Xi, they arrived at the nearest city in about ten minutes. It was still dark, but the city had already begun to move. Through the power of money, Ling Xi successfully bought plane tickets to Shenzhou for himself and Sirin!
Finally, after about six hours, Ling Xi returned to Shenzhou...
To be honest, Ling Xi has always wanted to complain about one thing: she died in Shenzhou, so why was she resurrected in Siberia?
I can understand why I died in the Far East Ocean and was resurrected Far East, picked up by a silly girl. But...
It was rendered useless in Shenzhou, but it was resurrected in the Babylon Laboratory in Siberia. Isn't that a bit too much?
Never mind, let's not worry about these details.
"Ah, I'm finally back."
After getting off the plane at Capital City Airport, Ling Xi couldn't help but stretch. Now, she should be safe, right?
Although there are now forces of Schicksal in Shenzhou, as long as one keeps a low profile, it is virtually impossible to be exposed with the surveillance network of this era.
As for the data in the Babylon Laboratory, he had already had Sirin destroy it all before leaving, so it was impossible for Schicksal to find him and Sirin in the short term. Even if they knew his and Sirin's information, they would not be able to find him in the short term.
Where is this?
Following Ling Xi, Sirin looked around curiously. Having grown up in a snowy country, she could see snow for more than half the year. As for going abroad, apart from the Babylon Laboratory, this was her first time.
