Chapter 229 Goodbye (Part 2)

"Boom-boom-boom-boom-"

The giant hunched over and chased the tiny fluorescent light in front of him.

After being stripped of the genes of the four Honkaiju beasts, the giant's size shrank rapidly like a popped balloon. Its height did not change much, but almost all of the originally tangled muscles dissipated, leaving only a thin The flesh hangs loosely, outlining the distinct shape of the bones.

It no longer has any Honkaimon abilities. Even after those Honkaimon factors leave, there is a question mark as to whether the [Instinct] that previously competed with Mikael still exists.

It still has the lost power of Mikael in its body, but that is not important anymore. Without consciousness as the reins, it is impossible to control the horse of power.

In short, today it is just a rampaging beast relying on its huge size.

In terms of combat effectiveness, it may not be as good as the combination of Pavanti and Shesha that Kevin will face, but this is a battle that cannot be left to others, because what he has to face is not so much the enemy as himself.

"Moo——"

The giant's soles easily wiped out a large block. Mikael jumped out of the flying stones and jumped onto a building, but the dust raised completely obscured his sight.

Although his vision was blurry, with his hearing and perception of the surrounding space, it was difficult for Mikael to figure out the giant's movements.

Just as he was about to move, the sky above his head suddenly became darker. He immediately stopped at the edge of the building, and with a wave of his five fingers as he turned around, he built a three-layer overlapping imaginary number barrier.

But before the giant's palm could overlap with the barrier, the wind from its palm when it swung to the ground still tore the imaginary barrier to pieces.

"Okay, I take back what I said before. You are much more powerful than Parvanti Gasshetha."

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge palm fell from the sky, creating a huge crater within a radius of a hundred meters.

The palm wind completely dispersed the previous dust haze, and then rolled up even thicker dust, so that the giant could not see his own fingers clearly...

"Puff——"

Across the space rift, the spear tip of the Black Abyss White Flower pierced the skin on the back of the giant's hand, opening a small hole that was too small to even cause it to feel immediate pain. However, as the "Black Abyss" wrapped in the inner layer glowed, it symbolized The power of the power of death quickly poured in through this small hole, causing blue lines to appear on the skin on the back of its hand.

As for the giant, the Black Abyss White Flower is no different to its size than a normal person being pricked by a two or three millimeter long thin wooden thorn. He may feel a little numb, or he may not notice it at the time, but when he dies, After the power invades and the cells undergo massive necrosis, even this numbness can no longer be transmitted to the nerves.

Therefore, it didn't even know about Mikael's counterattack. It just stared at his right hand with scarlet eyes, as if its gaze could penetrate the dust haze.

Until a ray of blue light flashed through the dust haze, and Mikael was seen holding the black abyss white flower behind his back, running wildly along the giant's arm, the tip of the spear reaching to his feet, dragging long blood marks on the giant's skin, but The flesh and blood exposed inside is not the normal dark red, but green and black that has been eroded by power.

Unfortunately, for a giant with such a body, this level of cell apoptosis is just a drop in the bucket.

"Moo——"

The giant raised his arm high and threw Mikael's body down, and then waved his left arm to slap Mikael away in free fall.

But at this time, the disadvantage of the huge body is undoubtedly exposed - as Mikael added after the merger, "Some Explanations on Abandoning the Wanderer Plan" said, "The huge body does give the Wanderer unparalleled destruction. It has strong strength and psychological suppression, but its disadvantage is that it is too inflexible. When dealing with large Honkaimon, it cannot provide an advantage due to its size. When dealing with Herrscher, it will be too slow to hit the fly, resulting in a situation where it cannot hit the fly. "

Unless it possesses Honkai energy that far exceeds Herrscher level to support its actions, the Honkaiju factor that previously gave the giant this condition has been stripped away...

So the giant's arms staggered back and forth, and its bones almost softened, so in the end the arms were waving like ribbons. But Mikael relied on the power of space, like a fly that couldn't be swatted, with both hands. After traveling back and forth in the arm for several times, he once again jumped onto the giant's right arm.

As soon as his toes came into contact with the giant's skin, he felt something was wrong. He turned the tip of his toes gently and jumped up in the opposite direction, slightly pulling away.

The next moment, the giant's body suddenly crashed down, and the air waves rolled up directly blew Mikael away.

He shuttled between phases several times in succession, and finally stopped in the solid space, only to see the giant in front of him on all fours like a wild beast.

"Gululu——"

As the throat trembled, a cloud of white steam sprayed out from the gap between the giant's teeth that were still embedded with flesh and blood.

Then, the two Mikaels' eyes met—

The same blood-red eyes, but one side has a vertical pupil that symbolizes savagery and animality, while the other side has a gear-shaped pupil that symbolizes human rationality.

"Moo——"

It roared loudly. The human body was not suitable for crawling, but under its control, the limbs were more flexible than when standing.

It opened its shoulders, lowered its body, and rushed toward Mikael.

"Tsk!"

Mikael tapped his toes on the solid space, using the power of space to walk through the empty high-rise buildings. The giants following behind easily swept these obstructive reinforced concrete jungles to the ground.

Its pupils were fixed on Mikael. No matter how he tried to escape, it would always chase him in the shortest straight line and hold him tightly.

"Boom!"

When it knocked open a building with its top of the head and swung its left claw at Mikael's back, which was within reach, the dazzling purple light stung its optic nerves for a moment.

The thunder and lightning struck it head-on, causing it to be forced back hundreds of meters with a wail. When it tried to chase again with white steam all over its head, a strong wind came from the side street again. It had to insert its hands and feet into the ground and bury its face in the ruins to avoid being blown over by the sudden strong airflow.

When it finally raised its head, it found that Mikael's distance from it was not only not pulled away, but even turned around and rushed towards it!

"Moo————"

The giant supported himself with his lower limbs, half-standing up, and with a swing of his left arm, he easily swept away the large piece of ice falling from the top of his head, and at the same time, his right arm once again made the gesture of a lucky cat——

"Not good!"

Mikael's pupils shrank slightly, and he pushed his hands flat in front of him. When the giant's arm swung down, he had already constructed five layers of imaginary barriers from front to back.

But when facing the seventh Herrscher, the air wave raised by the giant, who was only two hundred meters tall, could suppress the Herrscher without any ability to fight back, not to mention that the power comparison between the two sides was obviously more disparate as one side gained and the other lost.

The five layers of imaginary barriers were broken at the first encounter, and Mikael stretched out his hand to summon a space crack. The terrifying air wave poured into the dark space, and then poured out from the crack behind Mikael, instantly turning the tall buildings along the way into dust. The air wave rushed out of the city and rushed to the seaside, rolling up even more magnificent waves, and then gradually subsided.

At this moment, Mikael's head went dark, and the giant's right arm slapped down again.

"Tsk!"

The imaginary barrier only blocked for a moment, and Mikael took the opportunity to jump into the space crack behind him, and when he reappeared, his figure was already in mid-air.

The giant's throat rolled, and his neck bulged instantly, and then the bulging moved forward and entered the mouth, so his cheeks bulged like a toad.

"What is that?"

In just one second, the light from its teeth condensed from purple to black. There was no doubt that it was simply the compression of Honkai energy. In the case of being unable to control the power, the giant adopted the method with the lowest utilization rate, but the simplest and crudest method - it directly compressed a large amount of Honkai energy into the mouth until it could no longer be compressed and sprayed out directly.

"Stupid!"

The space crack that Mikael jumped into had just closed, and the Honkai energy jet had already swept across that space. He used phase shuttle to seemingly evade this aggressive attack irregularly, but in fact, while keeping a distance, he also guided the Honkai energy jet ejected by the giant to the sky.

Until its neck pointed almost 90 degrees to the sky, Mikael suddenly jumped over the space crack and appeared in front of the giant.

He stretched out his body the moment he jumped out of the space crack. He held the middle part of the Black Abyss White Flower with his right hand. Under the insight and planning of the Ruler of Reason, the state of each muscle, the force and angle of the Black Abyss White Flower were all calculated with the most precision.

What's more, he was not fighting alone from beginning to end!

"Xier!"

Mikael did not use the power of space when throwing the spear, because it takes time to open the space crack, and the speed of this shot is faster than phase transmission!

The Black Abyss White Flower easily broke the giant's skin, and the huge force made this blow no longer just a penetrating wound - the impact force spread along the wound, and the surface skin and muscles were rippling like ripples at this moment.

"Hah!"

At this moment, Mikael's gear-version pupils also locked onto the wound.

The next moment, the power of space exploded, with the black abyss and white flower as the anchor point, the entire space quickly spiraled and twisted, until the giant's left arm and half of his left chest were completely twisted off!

"I would like to call this blow divine power!"

The giant wailed, and the jet of collapse energy gushing out of its throat was replaced by blood. The dark red liquid splashed tens of thousands of meters high in the sky like a fountain, and hit the "border" of the world bubble, just like hitting a layer of transparent glass, instantly dyeing the whole sky red.

Then, the blood stuck to the invisible border gradually dripped, and blood rained in the sky for a while.

The giant looked at Mikael standing in the air less than an arm's length in front of him. While wailing, he shrugged his other shoulder and tried to mobilize his right arm. That's right, until this moment, he was seriously injured, but he didn't give up killing Mikael.

Perhaps, killing another self in the world is also the instinct of creatures [survival].

Because there is another self, it means that one's existence is not unique, but a standard part that can be discarded and replaced at any time.

Only by making oneself unique can one survive in this world.

So Homo sapiens killed all humans except himself, and became the darling of [God], and had the current civilization.

And at this moment, due to this instinct engraved in the body of the organism, the two [Mikael] are so obsessed with killing each other.

It is not something that can be analyzed rationally and described in words, but a [blessing] buried in every chromosome, and the uncontrollable turmoil of blood in the chest.

Mikael's throwing posture has just ended. He waved his right hand and held it flat in front of him. A space crack suddenly opened up beside him. He clenched his hand in time and grabbed the black abyss white flower that shot out.

The holding position is exactly the same as the holding position when throwing it. Except that the posture is reversed, there is still a little sweat remaining on the handle of the gun.

On the other hand, the other Mikael held his neck and kept roaring. His voice was full of pain at one moment, and naked anger at the other.

Its right shoulder shrugged several times, but for some reason, its entire right arm didn't obey its orders at all. When it turned its gaze to its right arm in confusion, it saw that the originally gray-brown skin there had been covered in blue-black, the tendons and blood vessels on the skin were deflated, and a strong stench could even be smelled.

Obviously, that was the power of death that Mikael had injected into its right arm previously. Logically speaking, based on the power level and duration that Black Abyss White Flower poured into it at that time, it was naturally not enough to cause the cells in the giant's entire right arm to undergo apoptosis in such a short period of time. But who said this is the world?

Mikael wants to drag the giant into this world bubble in one step, naturally not only out of a sense of responsibility and destiny to fight alone, but also because in this world bubble, in this world bubble where the Sixth Herrscher has lost his power. , he can amplify the power of the Black Abyss White Flower countless times.

"Are you ready, Xier!"

"Tsk! It's such a waste of time, give it the final blow quickly!"

"Okay!"

Mikael held the Black Abyss White Flower upside down with both hands, and used the momentum of his body's fall to easily pierce it into the ground.

Accompanied by the interweaving light of black and white, snow-white flowers grew immediately and covered every corner in sight. Even the fine blood rain hitting the petals could not stain them with a trace of blood red. They slide along the petals and into the ground below, but they nourish the flowers even more. Then, thick green vines sprang out from the ground at Herrscher's feet, binding him easily.

After doing this, Mikael's body suddenly staggered. Fortunately, he was able to stand firmly with the help of the Black Abyss White Flower. After all, he was too hasty just now, and he did not completely reach "reconciliation" with his core, but almost used violence to forcefully obtain part of his power.

The power itself is incomplete and unstable, and the synchronization rate is even lower. Until now, the battle seems to be running out of gas.

But then, a force completely opposite to the Herrscher surged violently from his chest into his limbs, causing all the muscles in his body to feel a slight soreness due to the overwhelming power.

"Wait a minute, Xi'er, you gave me too much!"

"Lusuo, are you going to fight me or not?"

Mikael chuckled lightly, and in the blink of an eye, the land where white flowers were blooming was suddenly covered with a layer of blue color.

That was the color he and Xier shared, as blue as water and the sky.

Then, tens of thousands of various rail guns, rockets, and electromagnetic sniper rifles locked onto the huge figure in the middle.

"A long-lost attack method..."

Mikael's soliloquy was covered up by the deafening sound of gunfire from the beginning. The dust kicked up by the explosion far exceeded the scale caused by the previous giant impact. If we observe this world bubble from the quantum sea, I am afraid that we can only see It looked like it was gray and chaotic.

Even the blood rain falling from the sky was covered with dust and haze.

Even Mikael's ability to use space power can only be vaguely understood.

But he believed in his own strength and Xi'er's strength, so he launched a charge towards his former self without hesitation.

His body continued to rise through the cracks in space. When it broke out of the dust haze, what came into view was the giant's body riddled with holes.

Its face is painful and ferocious, but its facial features are so similar to Mikael's... no, those are Mikael's facial features...

The tip of the spear was getting closer and closer to the giant's eyebrows, and he could see the complex emotions suddenly flashing in the giant's eyes——

There was resentment, fear, and surprisingly, there was also a hint of relief.

And Mikael did not hesitate, allowing the black abyss white flowers to pierce the giant's eyebrows.

"Puchchi——"

He did not restrain his strength until he completely penetrated the black abyss white flower.

But when he blinked because of the blood on his face, what appeared in front of him was no longer a giant, but an extremely familiar, normal-sized figure, himself.

Black Abyss White Flower completely penetrated the other Mikael, almost cutting off his body at the waist, but Mikael himself maintained the thrusting movement and posture. Since he was in the air and falling posture before, it seemed inevitable at this time Somewhat funny.

"Ho ho..."

The other Mikael's Adam's apple rolled twice, and blood foam flowed from the corners of his mouth.

"Haha, I thought you would hesitate for a while. Being so decisive is really not like...me."

He said this to Mikael.

"..."

Mikael opened his mouth in vain. He seemed to realize something, but... he was still not good at speaking when saying goodbye.

"But okay, decisively... oh... ahem! Just let the fragile part of you die with me... Dear myself, I don't know if I will be the last one, but if there is another one in the future, In this situation... please be the same as you are today and don't hesitate. Only by constantly killing your past can you truly move towards... ahem! "

"..."

"It seems I can't say anything sensational anymore. Goodbye, future me."

Mikael stretched out his left hand, trying to press against his body and pull out the white flowers from the black abyss, but before his hand could touch the other self, the other person turned into light and disappeared.

Mikael only had time to grasp a handful of light particles, but they immediately flowed out from his fingers and disappeared without a trace.

In the blink of an eye, he was standing in a field of blooming white flowers. The body of the giant in front of him was quickly decomposed under the power of death and finally disappeared.

The palm of his left hand was suddenly hit, which made him realize that he was not completely holding nothing.

He raised his hand and saw two gems, one blue and one red, floating in his palm.

"..."

Looking further away, on the high-rise building that he set as the initial anchor point, a pink figure was looking at this place from afar.

Across a distance of dozens of kilometers, the two looked at each other without any obstacles.

He could even see the trembling of her eyelashes.

But he shook his head slightly - she was not her after all.

The next moment, his figure disappeared in the world bubble.

"Crack--"

The white tip of the gun pierced into the dark scorched earth. Mobius suddenly opened the tent of the temporary command post, and Mikael stood in front of her unscathed.

"Solved?"

"Well, where are they?"

"Tsk, they are all solved, on their way back. What? Do you want to go and greet them in person?"

There was nothing wrong with her words, and her tone was as familiar as ever, but coupled with her unprecedented "age", it was really hard not to give people the feeling of a female ghost.

"No, I have other things to do."

Mikael shook her head and simply refused.

Before Mobius recovered from the surprise, Mikael closed his eyes, lowered his head, and clenched the gun of Heiyuan Baihua.

He only heard him mutter: "Help me again, Xier!"

"Tsk! I can't do anything with you!"

The two kinds of blue that protected each other entangled with each other rippled around Mikael's body until the entire underground city, a radius of nearly 60 kilometers, was completely covered.

Wherever this light passed, the originally dark scorched earth gradually became fertile, and even green sprouts broke out of the ground.

But the shock he brought to Mebius was far more than that.

I saw a clearer light spread out, like a sketch pen, outlining the simple sketch of the underground city in Mikael's memory on the new land - high-rise buildings lined up one after another, a pyramid-like headquarters base, asphalt roads that extend in all directions, artificial lakes, breakwaters, willows beside the breakwaters, and the "Vilvi Chain" slanting in the sky.

As Mikael grinned lightly, the simple lines rendered each other, and finally from lines to surfaces, and finally to everything that existed, from beginning to end, it took only ten seconds.

The flooding light in the sky changed slightly, and people rushed out of the tents one after another, stepped on the cold asphalt road and looked up, only to see that even the artificial "sky" above their heads had been completed by Mikael.

But just when Mebius lowered his gaze, just when Mei and others wanted to ask, the person who created all this disappeared again.

…………

11 degrees and 20 minutes north latitude, 142 degrees and 11.5 minutes east longitude.

This is the deepest seabed in the world, and less than ten nautical miles to the east is the most technologically advanced and densely populated continent on this planet - Mu Continent.

The seabed is dim, without even a trace of light, but it is different here. The small fluorescent light blooming not far away points Mikael in the direction.

"Tsk! I didn't expect you to understand her mind."

"Xier has always wanted to see the sea carefully, completely relaxed, and not hindered by any mundane things. And we have had countless opportunities to achieve this wish."

"..."

This time, it was Xier's turn to be silent.

"Are you/I Xier?"

Tacitly, at the deepest bottom of the sea in the world, two consciousnesses were thinking about the same question.

Suppose there is a ship that can sail for an infinite time, called the Ship of Theseus. From the first day it leaves the port, the planks and parts that make up it begin to decay and break down one by one. Whenever this happens, the sailors will replace it with new parts until there is no part on the ship that is the original one.

So, is this ship still the Ship of Theseus?

If the dismantled decayed parts are put together to form a ship, which one is the Ship of Theseus, this one or the one that is still sailing now?

This is the question that lies before the two of them now.

Seele's consciousness is a copy of the previous Seele's personality by Apolonia, and it only represents half of the personality under schizophrenia, which is why her surface personality is very different from the previous Seele.

As for the way of existence, she does not occupy Seer's original body, nor is she even in human form.

When the soul steel necklace that she relied on for survival was devoured by the Vishnu factor, she lost her original carrier and merged with the holy scar that had only a carrier but no consciousness, becoming the existence she is now.

From her consciousness to the carrier, everything is brand new, but she can still be called Seer, which is amazing...

"Anyway, I don't want to stay in your body all day and night and watch you... Forget it, you can still use the power of the holy scar without me. Even if I leave for a short time with your help, I can come back here at any time, right?"

"That's right."

"Then don't hesitate, let me see what [Hai] really looks like."

"Yes."

In front of Mikael, the entrance to the quantum sea opened slightly, then suddenly closed, and finally, under the stitching of spatial power, it was completely imperceptible from the outside world.

Neither of them said goodbye, so this naturally could not be considered a farewell.
