53. The Third Simulation End
"Is it really out of control? It's almost impossible for one person to maintain a pure heart when he has to bear nearly a thousand amplified evil thoughts..."
Dr. Mei looked at Ling in the surveillance video, who seemed a little abnormal, and sighed softly.
"Xiao Ling, don't scare Sister Ely, she will be unhappy!" Elysia said half-jokingly.
Suddenly, her eyes focused, and she immediately opened a crystal shield at her side.
The harsh friction sound made her teeth ache. Her shoes rubbed against the ground, leaving a long crack.
"This is...a string!" Elysia couldn't imagine that a string could have such terrifying power.
The other end of the line is connected to Ling's fingers.
He just gently retracted his fingers, and the surrounding buildings were instantly cut off, with the cuts as smooth as a mirror.
"Kevin, kill him."
Dr. Mei gave the order coldly.
After Kevin received Mei's order, the Cleaver of Shamash in his hand ignited with flames, and then he jumped high and slashed towards Ling!
The scorching flames made the ends of Ling's hair curl slightly.
However, Ling did not dodge or evade, but stood still, intending to take the attack head-on.
The silk thread with flames attached to it looked so bright in the night that before Ling could see it, the ice and snow below had already begun to spread outwards.
Countless ice cones rose from the ground!
Ling wanted to evacuate when he saw this, but his feet were frozen.
The icicles pierced his body easily, and blood flowed down the icicles, staining the ground red.
"Xiao Ling..." Elysia bit her lower lip. She knew she shouldn't act rashly at this moment, but...
Ling's body was pierced, but his hands did not stop moving, and ten silk threads strangled Kevin.
Sakura moved quickly, and the constant friction between Frozen Naraka and the silk thread slightly slowed down the speed of the silk thread.
Ling still refused to give up and only attacked Kevin.
The ice created by Kevin was easily cut through and stabbed straight towards his face.
At the critical moment, Elysia shot an arrow and hit the silk thread accurately.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kevin quickly stepped back.
However, before he knew it, a silk thread had quietly wrapped around the Cleaver of Shamash.
"Oh no…"
As Ling exerted a little force with his fingers, the Cleaver of Shamash flew out of his hand, drew an arc in the sky, and fell into Ling's hand.
The temperature around him began to rise sharply, the ice cone on Ling's chest melted, and the wound miraculously healed.
"Die!!!"
Kalpas's attack came from behind.
However, scorching flames gushed out from Ling's body, directly forcing Kalpas back.
"Herrscher of Domination", complete domination authority.
As long as he obtains the Herrscher Core, he will be able to perfectly control this power!
Now, he has the authority of the "Herrscher of Fire"!
The flames billowed and burned down the surrounding buildings.
At this moment, everyone felt as if they were back on the battlefield in Australia.
Kevin pressed his hands on the ground, and the extremely cold force began to spread around him.
The black ice was wrapped in a terrible chill, which for a moment suppressed Ling's power of fire.
Everyone took the opportunity to rush forward and attack him from all directions.
Elysia's arrow pierced his knee, Sakura's blade cut off his right hand, and Kalpas hit him with an unreserved blow.
Ling's entire body rushed into the building complex like a kite with a broken string.
"Be careful, there is no sign of the Honkai energy decreasing; it's not over yet." Dr. Mei warned.
Everyone looked cautiously at the smoke and dust rising in the distance.
When the smoke and dust cleared, there was no one in the huge hole that Ling had created.
"Did he escape?"
"No, the entire Fire Moth has been surrounded by MANTIS warriors. He can't escape." Dr. Mei said confidently.
Suddenly, she seemed to think of something.
"Kevin, go to the Herrscher Core storage room!"
"Maybe it's too late." Kevin roughly understood what Dr. Mei meant.
The cold air spread rapidly towards the storage room, and soon the entire storage room turned into a huge block of ice.
However, the next second, countless wind blades shot out from it.
"I'm still a step too slow..." Kevin frowned.
Ling used his only remaining hand to twist the silk thread into a strand and rushed directly into the storage room from underground.
To avoid arousing the suspicion of the Herrscher of Domination, the storage room does indeed store a core of the Herrscher of Wind.
She just didn't expect...
"Elysia, you can't hold back anymore," Kevin reminded.
"..." Elysia didn't say anything, but the slightly glowing bow and arrow in her hand proved her determination.
Ling is now equivalent to a triple-core Herrscher, which is quite troublesome.
With the support of the three Herrscher cores, Ling's strength increased again. Facing four MANTUS warriors alone, he was not at a disadvantage at all and even tended to suppress them.
Just when the battle was getting tense, the four of them suddenly felt dizzy.
"It's mental power! Be careful!"
The thread shot towards Sakura and Kalpas.
The enormous force made Sakura's arms a little weak, and she could hardly hold the blade in her hand.
Kalpas grabbed the silk thread directly with his hands, but his body kept sliding backward uncontrollably.
"Click…"
A voice made Sakura's lips turn pale instantly.
The Frozen Naraka...is shattered!
The blue blade shattered into pieces and fell to the ground, while the silk thread pierced through her heart!
Suddenly, someone stood in front of Sakura and used the two guns in their hands to push the silk thread away, blocking the fatal blow for her.
"Eden!"
When Ling heard this name, his mind suddenly became clear.
He looked in Eden's direction, who was now looking at him with great concern.
"Xiao Ling..."
"Sister...sister..." Ling shouted subconsciously.
"Don't go over there, Eden!" Sakura wanted to hold Eden, but she dodged past her.
"My brother will never hurt me..." Eden put away her guns and walked towards Ling.
A look of pain appeared on Ling's face.
"No, sister... don't come over..." The silk thread in his hand began to attack Eden frantically.
However, it only tore the ground around her into pieces.
"Xiao Ling is my younger brother; he will never hurt me." Eden still believed it.
"Don't want..."
Blood splattered everywhere, and Eden's shoulder was pierced.
"Don't come over here…"
"Xiao Ling, your sister is here." Eden looked painful, but still kept smiling, walking towards Ling step by step.
"I said, don't come over here!"
There was a cut on Eden's calf, and blood began to flow out in large quantities.
Eden leaned to one side and nearly fell to the ground.
"It's okay, Xiao Ling, don't be afraid. Sister will be by your side soon."
Finally, Eden walked towards him and her hands gently stroked Ling's face.
Ling's face was covered in blood at this moment, and Eden carefully wiped it off for him.
"Xiao Ling, believe in your sister, okay? You will be fine, we will all be fine." Eden hugged Ling gently.
"Sister... please, leave here... I don't want to hurt you..."
Ling's face was already covered with tears.
"Sister, I won't leave you. Let me sing to Xiao Ling like we used to..."
A familiar melody sounded from Eden's mouth. For countless days and nights, Eden hummed this song to make him fall asleep.
The violent atmosphere slowly calmed down, and at this moment, it seemed as if they had really returned to those times.
Ling lay quietly in Eden's arms and fell into a deep sleep.
"The concentration of Honkai energy is weakening. What happened to him?" Dr. Mei asked in confusion.
At this moment, the sharp-eyed Kevin noticed that Ling manipulated his silk thread and pierced his body from behind.
Three cores fell to the ground.
In order not to hurt his sister, he can only end everything in this way.
Ling's aura also weakened visibly.
He died quietly, as if he had never changed, always being the little Ling nestled in his sister's arms.
Eden's singing gradually turned into a sad cry; this was the second time.
For the second time, she watched her brother die in front of her.
"He...maybe he can be called a hero."
He alone bore the evil thoughts of a thousand people, allowing the real bodies of most of the Herrscher of Dominations to survive.
"No, he is just Miss A Quan's Ling and Eden's Xiao Ling, that's all."
"The third simulation is over!"
