Chapter 110: Saving Private Matthew (3rd Update.)
"What's the matter, why are the lights all of a sudden!"
Although the tone was very anxious, Dr. Roman's movements did not show any panic at all, which made Firena, who was standing on the sidelines and saw the truth, secretly say in her heart that she is worthy of a man with secrets.
"There was an emergency, there was an emergency. Fires broke out at the central power plant and the central control room. The wall in the central area will be closed in 90 seconds, so staff are requested to evacuate quickly through the second gate. RepeatβCentral ........."
The cold and merciless sound of the radio rang throughout the Chaldean space with the rapid alarm bell.
And when Firena heard that the place where the danger occurred was in the central control room, the peace of mind that had been hanging high was no longer what it had been. What kept flashing through my mind was the girl with the shield in my memory, and the back of Matthew when she left.
"Damn, was that an explosion? What the hell is going on in the central control room...... Monitor, show the situation in the control room, the people in there are okay. β
With Dr. Roman's transfer instructions, the situation in the central control room was instantly displayed on the display.
However, what was shown on the display was a hell on earth. Except for the Chaldean in the center of the sky, the rest of the place was completely engulfed in fierce flames, and among the ruins, the figures of people in cans could be faintly seen.
"It's ......"
Looking at Chaldeas in the flames, Firena's brain was filtered at a high speed, and the scene of her first encounter with the girl in her dream resurfaced.
"The same...... Same! β
Looking at Chaldeas on the screen in horror, Firena's whole body trembled slightly, and her legs unconsciously fell backwards, as if trying to get away from the area.
"Hey, Firena, calm down."
Seeing Firena's frightened expression, Dr. Roman, who simply thought that she dared to be scared because of these scenes, immediately shouted at her.
"Firena, calm me down!"
Sensing that Firena's abnormality was abnormal, Dr. Roman decisively cut off the surveillance. Then he grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her from her memory.
"Don't be foolish, go and evacuate, I'm going to go to the central control room now to see the situation. Also, the wall is about to close, and you'll have to escape outside before then! β
After saying that, Dr. Roman also paid attention to Firena's situation, and rushed out of the room in an instant with a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to achieve.
"That dream...... Is it real...... That dream, is it a foreknowledge dream that will not come true? β
Staring at her still trembling hands, Firena asked herself in disbelief.
She wanted to recall the dream again, but the reality was like a joke with her, and the more anxious she was, the more she couldn't recall a single star. Even Firena felt that her memories were fading rapidly.
"If that's the case......... If that's the case...... The girl...... The girl who has been with me all the time......"
Tapping her head vigorously, at that moment, Firena seemed to feel that the white mist that had shrouded the girl had disappeared. However, before she could take a closer look, she could no longer recall any of her voice and appearance.
"Damn...... Hurry up...... Hurry up...... Hurry up and remind me......... Damn it! β
ββ¦β¦ Predecessor!!! β
Just as Firena clutched her head and tried to recall the girl's face, a short but powerful call suddenly appeared in her mind. With this shout, Firena's memories were instantly strung together as if she had seen the sun through the clouds.
"Matthew ......"
The fading memory was frozen in the moment when Matthew unfolded her Noble Phantasm and fended off the bombardment of the Demon God King's Third Phantasm.
I don't know where those dreams came from, or why they were sealed again. But Firena knew that the girl who had always been by her side and fought side by side with her in her dream was Matthew, who called her as her senior.
Matthew...... Damn it! She's in the central control room right now. β
"Fu~!!"
Just as she was about to rush out the door, Fufu, who was standing next to her lap, called out and stopped her steps. Then, regardless of whether it resisted or not, he grabbed the back of its neck, brought it to his eyes, and said straight to the point:
"Little thing, I know you can understand people, and now your owner is in danger. If you still want to save her, then hurry up and bring me to her. β
"Fufu~!!"
Being held so roughly in Firena's hands, Fufu rarely didn't resist. After Zaifena finished speaking, she nodded at her very humanly and called softly.
Given the order, Fufu turned around and broke free from Firena's clutches. The moment he landed, the little guy jumped a few meters in front of Firena. Seeing that Firena was still standing still, Fufu turned and called out to her again, as if calling her to follow. Then it turned into a white light and quickly disappeared from her sight.
"Hey, wait, which way are you running!? The second gate is in the opposite direction. β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β
Glancing at Dr. Roman, Firena didn't reply, but overtook him at a faster pace and ran towards the central control room.
It's not that Firena doesn't want to reply, but at this time she doesn't even have the strength to open her mouth. Not long after she ran out, her physical strength began to plummet, and her breathing began to feel uncomfortable. Even a few times the thought of wanting to stop and rest.
However, when she thought of the countless times she had faced a powerful enemy, the petite figure who raised her shield to block her was in a critical moment at this time. Firena's whole body seemed to be full of strength again, and her speed became faster.
"Hey, Firena, do you hear me, it's dangerous over there!"
Dr. Roman, who was behind him, couldn't help but speed up a little when he saw Firena so fast. But seeing that Firena did not pay attention to her words, Dr. Roman could only run to Firena's side at a faster pace and said loudly to her:
"Ahh You can help, but remember to go back before the wall closes. β
Looking at Roman's tone that had to answer herself, Firena could only laugh helplessly in her heart, and then nodded slightly with all her strength.
"Except for Chaldees...... No one survived. β
Looking at the central control room, which was engulfed in flames, Dr. Roman stood still and muttered to himself, then looked to the ground and said to Firena:
"This is where the explosion took place, and this is not an accident, but a man-made incident. Also, I'm going to the Chaldean underground power plant to keep the fire, and you should hurry up and return the way you came, maybe it's still too late. β
After giving an explanation, Dr. Roman quickly left the place.
"Is there really no one alive...... Am you still a step too late after all...... Sure enough, the dream... Is it always just a dream? β
Just after Dr. Roman said that no one would survive, Firena's heart instantly cooled. Although she doesn't know much about magic, she still knows that only after death can people become heroic spirits.
"Fleur...... Fufu! β
Just as Firena was feeling guilty, Fufu's hurried cry could be heard from the ruins. Firena, who was immortal, hurried over, and finally saw the girl she had been looking for in a messy pile of ruins.
"Matthew......!"
