There are still 5 minutes left to leave this world.

Xing Kai sat alone on the cracked road, took out his cigarette case, bit the cigarette, and the lighter ran out of oil no matter how he shook it.

The cigarette is not lit.

A flash of spark.

Smoke emitted a point of fire.

Xing Kai took a sip and let out a "ha" as if he had been reborn.

"Coming?"

"Well, it's a bit of a surprise that you're not dead."

"Chloyd, the Prophecy of the Borderline was wrong, it's really ......"

Xing Kai looked at the man behind him with a big sword on his back and heavy armor that completely covered his head.

"Sarcasm?"

"Yes, sarcasm, what are you going to do?"

A player named Chloyd said, "The Undead Slash is there, and that thing can kill Gaunt Odim." ”

"Gaunt Odim is dead, it should have been the [Remnant] who did it...... He's one step ahead of you. Xing Kai held a cigarette in his mouth, and the corners of his mouth opened: "I still have a big life......

"I see...... He changed his fate, and he also reversed his fate, and in the end, the demon only thought that his nest was all he had, lacking awe and fear of the breadth of the world. ”

Xing Kai said: "If the ending is not what you want, fight hard before the dust settles...... It's really the logic of the 'remnants'. ”

Chloyd: "There are many ways to kill demons, and force is the stupidest, but the most powerful. ”

Xing Kai quipped: "Aren't you also planning to use force?" ”

Chloyd retracted her gaze and sighed, "Aren't I here to save you?" ”

"Hmph...... Who doesn't want to save others? Xing Kai laughed, extinguished the cigarette that had burned to the fart, and said listlessly with his eyelids down, "Okay...... As agreed, I survived, I join you, Chloyd, from now on, the Rescuer is a member of the Borderline team, don't forget the promise you made. ”

"Okay."

"Any other prophecies?" Xing Kai smiled and said, "I mean, the kind that will kill me, I have to prepare in advance, it costs money to buy a cemetery this year, and I have to make an appointment." ”

"In the near future, we will meet the last player, he is stronger than you and I expected, other than that, it will be smooth sailing."

Chloyd stared at the sky.

A figure appeared in the neon-lit night.

Nanami stepped on the stick and landed on the road, and when she came down, she moved her neck and shouted in the smoke and dust:

"You're really alive...... There is good news, Xing Kai. ”

When she said this, she saw Chloyd beside Xing Kai, and was stunned for a moment, her title ability can feel the potential of gold coins contained in the player.

So Nanami was surprised: "I'll go...... A player wearing a full set of armor from Arterius? ”

Chloyd shifted his foot.

He knew that the girl in front of him was very powerful, and she must have a lot of gold coins saved.

"This young lady and my teammates all the way, they can be regarded as friends."

Xing Kai raised his eyes slightly, smiling, with a dark face, not angry and arrogant.

"If you dare to touch her, I will move you."

A strong killing intent erupted from Xing Kai's body, which made Nanami's spine cold after sweating.

This medical soldier, who had always claimed to be ineffective, burst out with a terrifying aura no less than that of Li Nuo.

Chloyd was silent for a few seconds, then turned around, translucent, and said, "Understood, [Helpers] are the most troublesome in this regard. ”

"I'm sorry, Nanami, for frightening you." Xing Kai stood up and waved his hand: "When the time comes, goodbye fate, help me and the remnant blood brother bring them well, just say...... Let's take a look. ”

Nanami pursed her lips and bowed slightly.

The roar of the train breaks into the night city of dreams.

Xing Kai looked at Chloyd behind him.

"You said you were going to be an opponent with a very strong person in the future, who was it?"

Chloyd saw a pair of glasses in his head.

"Seeker, Sauron Lee."

The train carrying the player passes by.

[Mission Countdown Ended]

【Players, please get on the bus】

……

Outside the window of the train, the scenery is like a picture that is timelessly frozen.

Li Nuo was taped to the glass, making the painting a little funny.

"Hey~ Look, who would have thought that such a kind-looking guy would make you look like this."

The king sat in the chariot seat, his hands stretched over the backrest.

He was wearing a white T-shirt, black sweatpants of unknown age, combing a ponytail, a smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at the opposite side with teasing.

In the black mist, a drooping old figure stared at him.

"[Evoking Brand] caused you to take away a small part of his soul, which can sustain you back to life in Hell, probably ...... This is the only thing that Li Nuo did not calculate. ”

"Here it is...... Where? ”

Gaunt Odim tilted his head slightly, and the unfamiliar environment made him feel confused.

"Trains, trains to the worlds."

The king shrugged his shoulders.

"It's like your hometown, the gates of hell that connect the unknown worlds, except that this train is more advanced than that."

"Hometown...... You ......"

"Forgotten? I remind you? ”

The king sat upright, and then said solemnly: "Yellow Springs, Hell, Border Hell, and the Demon Realm are originally connected things, 2000 years ago, a certain mirror villain ran out of the gate of the border prison, and the gate of hell connects the various worlds, you are lucky to come to a world that does not even have magic, and you have mastered it." Fantasy 'magic-like you're above the rules of the world, you've become a high-dimensional being, and interestingly, as the world's weakness entangled, you become stronger and stronger, you become a mirror seller, and you become the god and demon of that world. ”

He paused, his fingers pinching his chin: "A mere evil thought who escaped from the border prison, a slave of Gardeira, turned into a high-dimensional creature......"

When he heard the name "Gardeira", Günter Odim felt a chill.

The king shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly: "This is the reason why high-level things can't enter low-level worlds, if it's you everywhere, I'll be busy to death." ”

Günter Odim: "I'm amazed at how well you know me. ”

King: "I know more about you than you know about yourself." ”

"I want to hear it." Günter Odim took a deep breath: "I feel like it's going to be a long time. ”

The King smiled slyly, "The world may be divided into many, for example, there may be other Night Cities outside of Night City that are similar to the ones that are known to the public, they are similar but not the same. ”

Günter Odim: "Parallel universes? ”

"Almost." The king shrugged his shoulders: "For example, in a certain world, you are still in the world of the 'witcher', and that world has developed a magical revolution, and you are still the god and the demon, but the goddess of fate can't help but take action one day, she instigated a group of magical aliens, tied you to the black hole and threw you in, and then you traveled to the monster world full of 'dragons', you turned into a mosquito, and finally was shot to death by a ghost." ”

"For example, you are becoming more and more terrible in the original world, and some people even worship you as a god, and the demon eventually has a godhead, and when you become the object of worship, you really become a god, and hundreds of years later, no one still remembers that 'Günter Odim', only the real god of creation."

Günter Odim interrupted him: "Interesting but boring story. ”

King: "But they have already happened. ”

Günter Odim: "......"

The king tapped the window, referring to Lino on the glass.

"In some timelines, Li Nuo died of 'congenital immunity syndrome' at the age of 22, but in this timeline, he has created achievements that I could not even imagine." He said word by word: "As a priest, with the body of a demon hunter, he exiled the invincible Mirror Master twice in a row, and finally killed the high-dimensional demon. ”

"Interestingly, in a large number of timelines, only this one Li Nuo has become a 'traveler in the other world', and only this one Li Nuo has met you, and now the ending you are facing is the only one, in other words, you have met your nemesis."

"Oh, what an ironic story." The demon said this, but there was anger in his tone.

The king spread his hands gently: "Don't be so angry, Master Mirror, you lost, you lost to an ant who only has twenty years of life, and you are on this eternal train with your thousands of years of ridiculous dreams, if you want to blame yourself." ”

"And now?" Gaunt Odim paused for a moment, looked at the front of the car, and his dark eyes exuded malice: "Send me back to that border prison?" Do it all over again? ”

"How, maybe~" The king issued a particularly mocking tone: "I am a link of the Fate Corrector, Li Nuo defeated Fate, I have to send you, who can also be resurrected from the reincarnation of the border prison, to a world where you can never be reborn." ”

"Huh?" The black mist from the demon's body erupted, instantly sweeping the carriage.

The king hunched over, his beautiful eyes fixed on the demon.

The eyes are facing each other.

The malice between the demon's pupils grew heavier and heavier.

The king looked at each other with a little deep meaning.

"Gaunt Odim, you still think you are the master of the world?"

"The smug clown who is in his lair will never see the infinite world created by the limited imagination of human beings, and you are still the slave of the demon god Gardella in the gate of Octopath Traveler."

The black fog suddenly vanished.

Gaunt Odim looked at the man across from him in disbelief.

"What the hell are you?"

The king ignored it, but looked at Lino who was taped to the window.

"Correspondingly, I'm going to reward this player as a reward for my surprise and invalidating the prophecy of the [Borderliner]."

The king snapped his fingers, and the demon on the other side froze.

"I read his most pressing desire right now, and then I understood why you, as a high-dimensional demon, lost to a mere witcher."

He knocked on the window, and the glass cracked.

Cracked windows.

Cold air pours in from the outside.

"Angel is right, you are indeed like me before, but for how long."

The king took out a [Shilipo Sword God Card], tore off a corner, and pasted it on Li Nuo's body.

"Those two simple wishes, I'll help you make them come true."

With the wind, Li Nuo disappeared outside along with the glass shards.

"The story of the sorceress and the witcher should not end in the hands of the demon, but the meaning of the demon is very broad, and the things to face in the future are far above this high-dimensional demon."

"Moreover, you can't escape, you want to be a nobody, you are already going to be famous all over the world, that's a very dangerous world, the remnant of the blood."

As if telling his story, he turned his head, the wind blowing through his hair curtains, and his ponytail swaying in the cold wind.

The king clapped his hands at the demon with the smile that Gaunt Odim usually treated.

"I'm here to see you off on one last ride, Master Mirror."

……

[It has been detected that the soul you stole contains the gene of the Majin Canghuo, and the location of the trip has been matched]

【As a special passenger, it will be a one-way line and you have arrived at the station】

【Gaunt Odim】

【Please get off the bus】

【Have a nice trip】

When his gaze returned, Gaunt Odim looked around.

Night.

The crescent moon is in the sky.

He was standing in the middle of a street.

It is flanked by townhouses that are more modern than Novigre and slightly more backward than Night City.

The neighborhood is uninhabited.

Steam exited from the sewer opening, obscuring his view.

Gaunt Odim looked at the door opposite under a flashing neon sign, and a moth lingered on the door.

Syllable......

He clapped his hands lightly, exuding irrepressible malice.

Time did not stop, but the door of the room where the moth stayed opened.

Out of the house came a sloppy man with white hair.

The eyes are facing each other.

"Devil...... I thought it was a pizza delivery ......."

The man suddenly drew his silver-white pistol.

I don't know how long it took for the neighborhood to be quiet again.

The door that walked out of the white-haired man was closed, and the demon's black blood was dripping to the ground along the sign of [Devil May Cry] on the door.

……

【Shilipo Sword God Card in effect】

[You reconnect with your squad and can stay in the world for an additional hour]

【Your Mosaic Curse Has Been Cleared】

Li Nuo got up from the grass.

[The script of "Final Fantasy" is forced to quit, and someone will vouch for you, no need to consume gold coins]

【The world you are in now......

He got up.

The vision is blurred, and the freshness with the smell of earth and horse manure intrudes into the sense of smell.

On the banks of the Grass River.

Blue sky and white clouds.

【Witcher】

His gaze was not far away.

Geralt's tombstone stands on a hill.

Ciri's back was facing him.

"It's ......"

"Towcent?"

[The negative status of "Pixel Tinder" continues]

[You need to go back to the space and use the old chair to ease the state before you can continue to view the panel]

Li Nuo used all the strength of his body to get up as much as possible.

The special effect of the [Red Tearstone Ring] is on.

The whole body is surrounded by red speckles.

[The curse remains, and your HP is 10% of the original limit]

In addition to this, there are also symptoms of "muscle weakness" that afflict him.

Opening a [Remnant] should be able to cancel it out.

He thought so.

But gave up the idea.

Because it's not necessary, it's safe here.

Ciri turned his head and saw Li Nuo's figure, his pupils widening slightly.

"Hey...... You're ......."

"I don't think I'm dreaming."

Li Nuo walked over step by step, using his cane as a crutch, and before entering the "Endless Corridor", he was very accustomed to this way of walking.

"I don't even know where you came from."

Ciri walked over and reached out to put his hand on Lenovo's shoulder.

"Sorry...... There were some symptoms in the body...... "Li Nuo couldn't hold on and collapsed.

He was held by Ciri, his chin resting on the witch's shoulder, and his gaze was pointing to Geralt's tombstone.

"I've met a nobleman......"

"What's going on?" Ciri asked puzzledly, "Why did you suddenly appear, and how did you become like this!" ”

"I went down with two things on my mind...... First thing ......" Li Nuo smiled and said with a little weakness, "I did the work of the witcher quite perfectly, Ciri...... I slaughtered Gaunt Odim. ”

"You put ......"

"Ah...... You don't have to worry about that guy coming back after opening the teleportation of Ancient Blood. Li Nuo paused, looked in Geralt's direction, and said, "You can go back." ”

"Huh?"

"Hmm."

Ciri's expression soothed.

"Well, I see, Mr. Witcher...... That's why you're here? ”

She let go of Lino and let him sit on the lawn.

Li Nuo raised his amber eyes and reluctantly squeezed out a smile.

"Because you helped me."

This is a strange person.

You don't feel guilty about doing bad things, but you will engrave the good of others in your mind, and you have to pay it back.

Even if it's a little grace.

"Thank you."

Ciri has nothing to say.

In fact, as long as she knows that there are still demon hunters in this world, it will be fine.

Other ...... As a person who has traveled through various eras and experienced countless winds and waves, she has long seen it.

It's 1890, 40 years after Lenovo's last visit.

Healy has been living alone for 40 years.

She raised her head and looked at the edge of the lake dozens of meters behind Li Nuo.

The magic of familiarity spreads.

There was an opening there, and a small car with a magical BGM jumped out of it and fell into the lake.

"Miss Chabai...... Even if you're in a hurry, you can't just open an opening and come out! ”

"I, I didn't, I didn't know what was going on in the middle of the teleportation, and suddenly there was an uncontrollable ......"

Cha Bai poked his head out of the lake and saw a familiar back.

Calm.

Silence.

Rapid heartbeat.

Biting your lip.

She swam to the shore, stumbling in a messy foot, running for Linuo's position.

"Found ......"

Li Nuo turned back in hindsight.

"Found it."

Chabai threw herself into his arms and knocked him into the grass.

"I found it!"

Li Nuo gasped for a fishy sweet breath in his mouth: "Wait...... Wait, I'm only 10% HP...... Tea white! You've got three hundred pounds! ”

"It's 126 kilograms!" Cha Bai quibbled, his head buried deep in Li Nuo's chest.

Ciri looked at this scene with a sad face: "The experience of the two, I guess I shouldn't understand...... But...... The witchers and sorceresses of Tousent...... It's also a kind of romance. ”

"That's exactly what you said......" Li Nuo stopped struggling.

His pupils swept to the shore and he glanced at Marger, who was sitting on the grass with his vending cart.

He touched his titanium-white wet hair, took a breath, and said:

"I did."

"I know."

Li Nuo looked at the sky and asked with a smile like a spring breeze:

"Chabai, you man...... It's not a coward, is it? ”

She left his chest and took off her goggles, her azure eyes reflecting Linuo's face.

Then he smiled and nodded slightly.

"Hmm."

……

Gamer World Basel.

The bell rang at the top of the central tower.

The bell echoes under the white clouds and blue sky.

The voice seemed to materialize, leaving a striking message in front of the eyes of all the players of the Grand Guild.

[Parallel timeline area 021, the world-class boss Mirror Master has been killed]

[Completed by: Fifth Detective Guild, "Certain" Squad]

[Killer's information is confidential]
