"Mr. Traveler." Like a corpse, the dark-skinned man walked up to Merlin's side.

"It's strange that Mr. Traveler still retains the breath of the living when he comes to the Stygian." He looked at Merlin, who had not changed, and said in some surprise.

"Maybe I'm just an outsider to this world, and the boundaries between life and death don't apply to me." Merlin said with a smile.

"It's really enviable, having friends and family waiting in your own world, and being able to travel between worlds." The heartfelt man said with some envy that he had not yet found the underworld where his wife and woman were.

When he finds it, he will definitely follow them to the final world of the dead.

"Is it convenient to add me one?" With a flicker, Fragir appeared next to the two of them, followed by a makeshift medical room.

"Of course, after all, this is a world-historic scene."

…………

"The final stranding has begun, and my Stygian has formed a Styx border with everyone's Styx."

"As long as I take a step forward, this world will be completely destroyed by a huge explosion!"

"So, this is your first option, stand by and witness the end with me!" Under the fiery afterglow, Ameri's face was compassionate, and she quietly looked at Sam on the beach.

"Let the whole world be consumed by the Big Bang?" Sam's grip on the pistol tightened.

"yes, it doesn't sound too bad, does it?"

"The world will eventually be destroyed anyway." Ameri in the sea once again reflects the sunset and steps forward.

"There is a second option......"

"As you expand your Cairol network, you've brought people together and become a much larger community."

"Just kill me and prevent me from crossing the Styx border, and the mass extinction will be postponed until tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of years later."

"It's you who bind the world together, and you have the right to make decisions!"

"Whether to pull the rope into the noose or cut it, whatever your choice, don't hesitate!" After saying that, Ameri resolutely headed towards the sea.

Sam aimed his pistol at Ameri, his mind tangled.

"What the hell should I do...... he looked unusually tangled, one side is the whole world, and the other side is the relatives who raised him.

…………

"I'll face it with you!"

An unusually resolute voice suddenly sounded in the dead silence of the aco, and Ameri's footsteps paused, and the corners of her mouth subconsciously hooked.

She turned her head slowly and gently hugged Sam in her arms.

"Thanks, Sam! Thank you for choosing me resolutely! ”

"Bang!" A crisp gunshot suddenly broke the heartwarming scene, and a bloody hole suddenly appeared in Ameri's head!

Sam also lost his speech under this sudden change, and his pupils trembled as he looked at Ameri, who slowly collapsed in his arms.

He turned his head, and the traveler, who hadn't been seen in a long time, raised his pistol and aimed it in his direction.

The bullet just now was fired from the opponent's pistol.

"Boom !!" The entire Stygian trembled violently, as if the end of the world, and the originally calm dark red sea suddenly became turbulent, and terrifying tsunamis rose one after another.

Countless rocks began to decompose, like a swarm of meteorites in space, rising into the air and wandering in the air.

"You bring Sam back first, I'll take it here." Merlin met the crashing waves, slowly walking towards the grief-stricken Sam and the dead America.

The two did not seem surprised.

Fragir suddenly flashed behind Sam, who was still a little dazed, and reached out on his shoulder to teleport him.

The heart man entered the medical room and activated the instrument.

…………

Merlin quickly entered the infirmary with Ameri's body in his arms, and he was lying on the bed.

"Let's get started...... Merlin slowly closed his eyes and waited for the next heart transplant.

The healing factor and super soldier serum on the body surface are also prepared.

"Hmm." The heart man also nodded solemnly, no one understands the heart better than him.

However, it was the first time he had done this surgery to stitch Ameri's heart and Merlin's heart together.

However, with today's medical technology, it is completely possible to eliminate rejection, and this operation is not very difficult for the heart.

And Merlin has also prepared a healing factor and a super soldier serum to deal with sudden situations at any time.

The Super Soldier Serum is an optimized version of the serum obtained from the Black Cat's father, and is stitched into the heart after it is stitched into the body.

If the Super Soldier serum is injected first, it will be an unforeseen surprise for the heart transplant operation.

After injecting anesthesia into Merlin's body, the heart man began to remove Ameri's heart next to him.

The whole world is still trembling, and it seems that it will collapse in the next moment, and the heart is racing against time to start the operation.

…………

……

I don't know how long it took, the Stygian seemed to feel the return of its master, and the original apocalyptic scene gradually stabilized, but the gravel in the sky was still floating quietly, and the endless dark red sea, red and huge, like the sun in front of me, dim beams......

It's like a dilapidated universe.

"Boom!"

"Knock knock!!"

…………

A rhythmic heartbeat sounded in the dark darkness, and Merlin, who was awakened, slowly opened his eyes, and the smiling face of the heartheart was the first to meet his eyes, which made his heart settle down a lot.

"Looks like it worked......" Merlin sat up, looking at his bulging muscles, his originally thin figure had become much stronger.

At the same time, he could feel his heart beating and pumping stronger.

"Yes, the serum you brought is amazing, you can now be called Superman." Looking at the abnormal heart rate fluctuations on the computer, the heart man couldn't help but touch his strong arm with some amazement.

"It's so hard!"

Merlin was initially unwell, but soon returned to normal.

"It's exciting...... he muttered, and then he began to feel the Stygian that he now owned.

"How are you feeling?" Seeing Merlin get up, the heartfelt couldn't wait to ask.

"Very well, I'm starting to bond with Ameri's Stygian."

"Sure enough, my conjecture is right, although the formation of the Stygian has the most direct relationship with the 'card', but the heart is the most closely related to the 'card'." The heart man clenched his fist excitedly.

'Ka' is the name for the soul in Death Stranding.
