After a moment of silence, as if some special switch had been flipped, the girls burst into laughter in unison.
After chatting for a while, the two realized that Dr. Mei, who had originally stayed there, had left sometime earlier.
Instead, Bronya stood at a distance.
Upon seeing this, the two quickly stepped forward.
"Yo~ all done?" Bronya spoke first, her tone still as flat and emotionless as ever, but her eyes swept back and forth between the two of them in a strange way.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Bronya."
“Compared to some encouraging developments, Bronya’s wait wasn’t too long,” Bronya said, a barely perceptible smile playing on her lips.
It's probably because Mei and Kiana are both girls...
Therefore... the "progress" Bronya mentioned most likely refers to the return of their Herrscher powers.
After all, the clothes they are wearing now are the Herrscher of Fire armor and the Herrscher of Thunder armor.
Of course, there is another possibility... which refers to the "progress" in the development of their relationship.
Players who enjoy watching the drama unfold will subconsciously ignore the former.
Therefore, everyone once again showed a maternal smile in front of the screen.
……
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the three decided to go find Dr. Mei to discuss their next move.
In this "deserted" base, it is still easy to find a person.
However, when they found Dr. Mei and saw her somewhat thin figure, the three of them were at a loss for words.
Dr. Mei, on the contrary, laughed nonchalantly: "Hehe~ Are you ready? Then it's time for us to say goodbye."
“…Dr. Mei,” Kiana looked at him, a hint of reluctance in her eyes, “At the moment we leave the World Bubble, our trajectory will leave behind a fleeting [Singularity].”
"While this can't guarantee it will help you in any way, but..."
Bronya went on to explain, "If you can seize this opportunity and reorganize your [form of existence], perhaps there is still a way for you to maintain your existence in the intrinsic world."
"This kind of inference, apart from making too many assumptions... isn't really a problem," Mei said indifferently, shaking her head.
"But if we want this to actually happen, we really need some extraordinary luck."
Prometheus's cold, mechanical voice also came through:
"To be precise, for Dr. Mei herself, the probability of this method succeeding... is close to the constant determined by the uncertainty principle."
That is, 10 to the power of negative 30.
"..."
The odds of this happening... are obvious to everyone.
After all, the last person to do something similar was Otto.
He paid an incredibly difficult price for his ability to deceive the world, including his own complete death.
Seeing everyone's silence, Dr. Mei chuckled again: "There's no need to feel guilty."
"Even without you, neither my body nor this bubble of worlds can sustain itself for long once time begins to pass."
(cgdf) After saying that, she didn't continue.
If time allowed, Dr. Mei would have been very willing to talk to these hopeful young people a little longer.
But as a shadow from the past, as the instigator who knows the whole story of the Stigmata Project, she understands better than anyone how important the present time is to Kiana and the others.
Prometheus: "Compared to fifty thousand years, four hours and forty days are indeed not much different."
Mei: "So, let's say goodbye to each other straightforwardly, just like Xiao Shi did."
At this point, Kiana and the others realized that there was one person who wasn't there.
"The Herald of Knowledge, she..."
Dr. Mei smiled and said, "She has been very accommodating to my choice from the very beginning."
"Of course, this contains a lot of emotional language."
This is said lightly.
But when everyone thought of Shi Bao's personality...
Countless players couldn't help but laugh.
That's probably like... a naughty child throwing a tantrum, but ultimately having to go along with the adults in the family.
Dr. Mei recalled Shi Bao's performance back then and compared it with the Hua she knew.
The difference in their personalities was truly amusing, and even she covered her mouth and laughed.
"I never expected that the Herrscher who shares memories with Hua in the main world would have such an interesting temperament..."
"This makes me really want to meet Hua from your era."
After saying that, Dr. Mei realized that she might have said something she shouldn't have, so she shook her head and added, "But it's okay, you'll say hello to her for me, right?"
These words only made Mei feel worse.
"..." She sighed softly, but there was nothing she could do but pray for Dr. Mei in her heart.
This feeling of powerlessness...
“Mei, there’s no need to look like that. You… once accepted the end of the entire [Paradise of the Past], didn’t you?”
Mei exclaimed in surprise, "How did you know?!"
Mei: "Because I see the [mark] left by Alicia on you."
"I believe in you. As someone who has inherited the will of the Moth of Flame, you should understand even better that all of our sacrifices have their own significance."
"I believe in you, just as I believe in Kevin."
Mei: "...I just feel..."
"I've witnessed far too many partings during this period."
May: "But saying goodbye was worthwhile, wasn't it?"
"【Moths Chasing Flames】When they named their organization after this, they probably never imagined that they would be more suited to be the 【fire】 that illuminates the path than the 【moths】 that chase after sparks."
"Mebius... what a fine name."
Mei: "It's also a name worthy of respect."
“Yes, that’s enough,” Mei nodded, then smiled and said, “Alright, you don’t need to be sad about things that are already buried deep in the past. Be brave and set off towards the future.”
Seeing this, the players didn't feel particularly sad.
Although, this can also be considered as killing a character.
However, since players are not very familiar with Dr. May and have no emotional attachment to the character, they naturally don't feel any resentment towards her.
.......
Chapter 535 Treasure Identification: I'm evenly matched with Kevin
"Mea Yi~"
Just as the group was about to leave to find the treasure, Dr. Mei's voice suddenly rang in Mei's mind.
This surprised Mei, but also puzzled her.
Is Dr. Mei speaking directly into her mind?
Or is it the law of knowledge?
Just as she was wondering, the voice came again.
"The essence of the Stigmata Project is [world compilation]. Once you know this, you will eventually discover how to use the power of the Herrschers to change it-..."
"Then, let's ignite a revolutionary spark for a new era."
"That is your responsibility as the [Herrschers of Humanity]."
Mei Yi: "...!!"
……
Dr. Mei's words greatly surprised Mei.
In fact, the fact that Dr. Mei was willing to help them was enough to make Mei unable to understand.
As far as she knew, Dr. Mei should be Kevin's girlfriend.
But... now Dr. May is indirectly helping them deal with Kevin...
However, players who watched the entire storyline understood Dr. May.
After all, she had already told Prometheus the reason.
Another point is that players have vaguely realized that the [Stigmata Project] was actually the last thing Kevin and May wanted to see.
But it was the worst plan that had to be implemented out of sheer necessity.
