Conversion Potions.

Aware of this proper noun mentioned from Luo Shui's mouth before, Heng Xie on the other side stood opposite the countless infected people and the soldiers of Chuanliu Town with his back to the unknown shadow of his life, his left hand raised high as if playing a unique overture in mid-air, the slender knuckles flipped the rhythm, and after that, the layers of infected people were dominated and controlled with his movements.

Zhao Mingsi waved his metal wings and wanted to fly to stop him, but everyone hesitated and didn't dare to step forward in fear of this strange and powerful force. And only Qiu Xuan, who was closest to him, could see clearly, Heng Xie kept the movements he had originally controlled, but his outstretched arms were trembling at a frequency visible to the naked eye, and cold sweat fell from his forehead and fell straight on the blood-stained ground.

Hengxie's genes can't be completely fused with the Elpis virus...... She thought so, almost with some transparency and pathos that knew the end, and looked at the half-blood mage who was already at the end of the crossbow with complicated eyes.

With the order to attack in Zhao Mingsi's mouth, the cowering soldiers still set out of the battle phalanx and surrounded it, Heng Xie gritted his teeth and controlled those infected people to block in front of him and Shuying, but in the next second, his face was hideous, and his muscles burst out and spit out a mouthful of blood. Seeing that the situation was reversed, Zhao Mingsi didn't show half of his ugly face just now, he patted the delicate mechanical wings and landed on the ground steadily, touched his chin and said to himself with interest: "Machines and magic, are you still a hybrid...... If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't fuse with Elpis either, he would have been a flawless test subject. ”

The scorching battle situation became more and more difficult for Heng Xie as time progressed, and once again he held on and held his hands down, holding back a mouthful of turbid blood from his chest, and Qiu Xuan could clearly see some flocculent fragments mixed in the blood. The soldier's encirclement shrank closer and closer, and several times the sharp tip of the knife had already poked Hengxie's body, Qiu Xuan sighed and turned back to no longer look at the picture that had a clear ending, which was the last respect left for it.

As the colorless and odorless gas was released, the infected crowd was as sluggish as when they came, and they swarmed out of the land of Kawaliu Town.

The half-blood mage was bent backwards and pressed to the ground in disarray, his right hand pierced by a sharp blade as he struggled, and it was obvious that he had lost his most basic function as an organ, but no one cared about it. The swarming jackals tore and devoured the flesh one by one, tying the tendons of the promising young man's magic to the shelves like a tying up livestock, and followed the man's command towards the invisible underground laboratory underneath.

Qiu Xuan followed the team in silence, and once again as a bystander, returned to the place that had brought her a huge psychological impact. A group of white-robed men hurried through the dim and long tunnels, sickly faces with excited smiles. They walked straight past the rows of towering shelves and headed straight into the black man's "pit" deep inside the room.

The shocking mountain of corpses was still the same as Qiu Xuan's memory, and in the next second, the huge mechanical arm was stretched out after entering a few commands, dragging Heng Xie up like grasping some garbage.

"Lord Zhao, just follow the experimental plan prepared for 'that batch of goods' and do it for him, right?" After bowing his head and recording something on the paper in his hand, a white coat looked back at Zhao Mingsi.

"The general direction remains the same, but the details have to be changed." Zhao Mingsi touched his chin and thought about it, "By the way, I thought about it!" Do you know how special his physique is, even though he is a magician, he can use his mana element to convert the ability of a mechanic, in this case, we simply completely transformed him into a mechanical body. ”

As if touching his lover's face, Zhao Mingsi gently stroked Hengxie's soft right hand that hung down at a strange angle.

"You know, I have a hunch. He's going to be one of my most outstanding works. ”

"Almost perfect, unique, miraculous."

……

When she saw the sunlight on the ground again, Qiu Xuan didn't know how she had spent the hours she had spent in the dimly lit basement. Even now, the sun wheel is back in sight, and the mess on the wall has been well cleaned, and even the air purifier has been thoughtfully sprayed. But the screams and heavy blood that lingered in the ears and eyes lingered for a long time.

Cold mechanical metal was attached to the severed sections of the stumps that once belonged to humans, flesh and blood were sawn off, gears filled vacancies in blood vessels, joints embedded in moving pressure gauges, and living beating brains injected with a sharp needle......

Now she is not trembling for this bloody and painful scene, but for the "humanity" that has been erased and buried little by little.

She watched as the light faded in Hengxie's eyes, and cold and hard machinery replaced the warm human body. With the last sound of metal splicing on the load, little by little, the gifted half-blood magician turned into the appearance of Number One before her eyes.

In the reception room of Chuanliu Town, Zhao Mingsi had already thought about his words, and looked at the person in charge of Nobeli who came to inquire with a sad face, and in the sight of the other party who was also surprised and incredulous, but in the end there was no other way, and the people of the army returned to the main city with Shuying, who had escaped because it had no use value.

And beneath the ground under their feet, no one knew that the half-human, half-mechanical "half-blood" monster opened its cold eyes from a black corpse.

As the space in front of him suddenly began to distort and fold, the memory of No. 1 came to an abrupt end.

The vortex that appeared out of thin air again spit Qiu Xuan back with a disgusted snort as if it were spitting out some bones. She barely recovered from her dizziness and found herself lying in a small clearing surrounded by the old man's Xihan Pavilion and the team behind them, while Heng Xie, who had come out one step earlier, was staring at the floor in front of her in a stunned manner, not knowing what he was thinking.

Hind Foot One slowly propped himself up, he straightened his arm and picked up his broken brain again, and stuffed it into his brain—still belonging to Elmetra's "immortal" ability—closed his eyes and slowed down gently, and looked coldly in the direction of Hengxie, who seemed to be autistic.

"Do you see it all?" He spoke coldly to Hengxie, "Listen, I went back in time and had no intention of trying to take your place or do anything to you, after all, we are one person, and I'm not sure what will happen to me if something happens to you." Zhao Mingsi was already dead before my memory was restored, so I couldn't find a chance to talk about revenge again. However, another important reason why I chose to travel through time is to end the plague. ”

"I don't care if there are any other irreconcilable conflicts between you, but this is the purpose of my return, and I must complete it. Anyone who tries to stop me, I won't take a step back unless I kill me, you can try it. ”

“…… I have a question. ”

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on her for a moment, Qiu Xuan paused, and slowly stood up and looked at No. 1 with the strength of the Xihan Pavilion beside her. "First of all, I have no intention of peeping into the little secret between you, and I am forced to be pulled into your memory. But there's one thing I've always cared about. ”

"At the beginning, you were instructed by Luo Shui to infect Shuying with the Elpis virus, and later, knowing that Shuying and the virus were rejected, you still insisted on not shifting the target to other people who might succeed. The reason Luo Shui gave for this was 'no time', but the conversion potion was obviously in your hand, wasn't it, and later you used the potion to transfer the virus in an instant in order to protect Shuying. So the 'no time' assumption is not valid, you are deliberately not transferring the virus. ”

But why do you want to do that? Since, as I said before, this is your last hope of victory, and unless you have foreseen that I will come and be able to merge perfectly with the virus, which is obviously impossible, even if you are a 'prophet', and for some unspeakable reason I am not within your rules, then can I understand that your purpose is the same as ours? And Luoshui has been on the same side as us from the beginning? ”

“……”

In a suffocating and strange silence, the woman who was as warm as water suddenly chuckled, this laughter was so incompatible with the dead silence around her that the Great Elder's face was ugly for a moment as if he had swallowed a dead mouse alive.

"Luoshui...... I don't know what's in that kid's memory, but please explain what she just said. ”

"Good, good. Explain, explain......"

Luo Shui didn't see the monstrous anger in the eyes of the Great Elder and the Academy of Sciences around her that was about to engulf her, and her soft gaze went straight through the crowd and went straight to Qiu Xuan.

"Good boy, you know what to do, right?"

The slender wrist as thin as a bone flipped to the arc of the water, and the ubiquitous water element jumped out of the crowd. Qiu Xuan slowly shook her palm, feeling that her connection to the infected person because of the Elpis virus became clearer and clearer.

The warm water flowed through the crowd, the rhythm around her, slightly oppressive but always soft and firm, and the strength that held her up made her feel blessed for a moment. Guided by the overwhelming elements, Qiu Xuan's wrists suddenly hung low in the air, and her ten-finger fingertips flew to chant the Doomsday Overture. Suddenly, the first breeze swept up the fine sand and rocks, and the next second, the howling wind came instantly, and the rushing water rushed through the sky!

"I got it......"

Standing in the center of the storm, Qiu Xuan's black hair was tilted behind her by the wind and waves, she raised her face and squinted her eyes to see the vast sky like black clouds pressing down on the city, and in an instant, the mysterious and treacherous incantations that were faintly chanting around her were scattered.

Behind her, the black soldier named Meng Chong was the first to feel the fiery touch on his forearm, he was stunned for a moment, temporarily put down the scene in front of him and looked down, the familiar pitch-black spell totem was vivid.

The fiery texture that extended from the treacherous totem spread all over his body, and Meng Chong crouched down in a little pain to prevent himself from suddenly fainting, and for a moment he wanted to ask for help from his companions but couldn't say a word. Then he found that his companion, who had been relatively healthy, also seemed to crouch down in pain, his brow furrowed as if he was enduring the same burning heat as him.

This move was like a signal for the opening of the prologue, and all the black people who were still alive in the huge area that radiated outward from the center point of the raging storm were surprised to find that there was an extra black totem on their forearm, and then they were faced with the pain that followed.

The Great Elder picked up the weapon that had been knocked down by One, and with a wave of his arm, he swung it towards the nearest black soldier who was in pain. There was a crisp sound, and Meng Ge held the box to block his movements.

"You, you're all reversed, aren't you?! What has the Academy of Sciences done to you in the past few decades? A Luo Shui, a female magician, and an airborne executive, can just say two words to reverse all the loyalty of these decades?! ”

"Old Wu, calm down." Meng Ge looked at the Great Elder with a solemn old face, "Maybe this is part of the plan, besides, those black people don't look like they've been cursed." ”

"I've said it a long time ago, it's not a curse."

Luo Shui let go of the elemental power that had been exerting behind Qiu Xuan in his hand, and for the first time saw a feverish fiery feeling on her gentle and jade-like face. "It's a miracle, a miracle for the Negro, a miracle for Elpis."

“…… I now order, in my capacity as the Chief Grand Elder of the Academy of Sciences and Head of the Holy Knights, that you have been removed, Luo Shui. You are no longer an Academy of Sciences, you are the executive of the Human Co-Evolution Project, you are not worthy. Catch her for me. ”

“……”

"I said, give, I, catch, stop, her!!" The Great Elder's expression was so dark that he could drip water, and his eyes darkly scanned the circle of black soldiers lying on the ground and groaning in pain, as well as the elders who stood motionless after hearing this. "Why, what I'm saying doesn't work now, does it?"

"In fact, you can retire." Bai Hexi leaned against the huge mecha and flipped his nails lazily. "I don't know about the others, but I joined the Academy of Sciences for the sake of Luoshui University, I will go wherever the adults go, if this Academy of Sciences is uncomfortable, then it is okay not to stay."

"You!"

The sudden loud sound of the wind rolling the waves interrupted the confrontation between the elders of the Academy of Sciences here, and they temporarily put it aside to follow the prestige, Qiu Xuan stood at the center of the black mist tide and slowly withdrew his hand. With the movement of her hand retracting, the wind and waves faded silently, and everything returned to the calm before.

"I see." She repeated her previous words again, her eyes calmly looking at Luo Shui who was standing. After that, the black people who fell to the ground and hugged themselves got back to their feet, staring at their bodies in amazement or bewildered, without exception, their faces more than twice as energetic as before.

Luo Shui smiled with relief, "Oh? Our Miss Miracle finally had an epiphany, it's good that you understand, hard work for you. ”

Qiu Xuan: "I understand, you have to use magic to defeat magic." ”

Luo Shui: ?
