I am a former Flame Chasers

Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Vill-V?



The shrill sound of sirens passed by on the road, proving that the Changkong City Police Department was not deaf or blind. In a small house on the side of the road, Ryan gently lowered a corner of the curtain.

The police were dispatched, but it was of no use. The Fire Moth did not come, which further confirmed his thoughts.

The Far East branch has been infiltrated, and it would be even more dangerous to go find them now. If I were alone, these pieces of junk wouldn't be able to stop me at all, but they're not coming for me.

Ryan turned his head and saw the chandelier on the ceiling flickering. He could see that the room was filled with takeout boxes and a sloppy man was lying in the corner.

A few minutes ago, Ryan broke into the room and knocked the otaku into a deep sleep with one punch. On the other side of the room, Mobius was kneeling on the ground, eating instant noodles in small bites.

Open your little mouth and blow gently, then put it into your mouth and close your eyes in enjoyment.

"Mm, it's my favorite barbecued pork flavor."

"You seem to lack a sense of urgency?" Ryan walked over expressionlessly. He couldn't quite understand this woman.

Sometimes elegant, sometimes rational, sometimes persistent, sometimes evil, just like a thousand faces.

"With you here, why should I be nervous? Anyway, you will die first, and then it will be my turn."

Ryan didn't know how to respond to this. After a long while, he said sullenly:

"Aren't you afraid that I'll abandon you?"

"Why should you be afraid? If you give up halfway, all your work tonight will be in vain." Mobius glanced at him sideways, very calm.

you...

Ryan took a deep breath. He certainly couldn't let Mobius die, because she was the one who did the most in depth research on Honkai at this stage, and the "Fusion Warrior" plan was even more crucial.

"Stop talking nonsense. Are you sure the other person is the wanted criminal Vill-V?"

"That's absolutely right. Only this 'magician' can create something that is both high-end and low-end." Mobius drank a mouthful of noodle soup and said comfortably, "Of course, it's not just her."

It was indeed Vill-V.

Ryan rubbed his head. Weiwei was also one of the Thirteen Heroes and the designer of the Key of God. She was even more of a weirdo with the ability to rub her hands like an orc.

To put it bluntly, because Fire Moth was secretive about how it handled the Honkai Impact 3, and because she herself had a dirty trick, she thought she had found the truth, and kept fighting against Fire Moth, and was put on the wanted list.

Hmm, I remember it was Elysia who recruited her.

"Where's Elysia?"

"She? She ran off to Shenzhou. I heard she wanted to taste some delicious food. That's ridiculous." Mobius immediately hugged the instant noodle bucket tightly, feeling a bit resentful. "She'll turn into a fat woman sooner or later."

That's really her style. Looks like I can't count on Elysia anymore.

Ryan was not surprised. Elysia always did what she wanted, so she narrowed her eyes and said, "You know why you didn't contact the Far East Branch."

"Are you testing me? There must be someone behind that wanted criminal providing information. Let me think about it." Mobius bit his thumb and muttered to himself, "It shouldn't be someone from the parliament. The League of Nations and some major powers are the most likely suspects."

"Why?"

"If the people above want to deal with me, they can just cut the funding and that's it. There's no need to kill me."

"That makes sense."

Ryan also fell into deep thought. The real world is about politics. Unlike the "Schicksal" in later generations, which is like the emperor, the Fire Moth has always been a subordinate organization of the International Union. It's just that as the Honkai Impact 3rd is getting worse, this organization is getting bigger and bigger.

Priority is given to the mobilization of materials, the best scientists are recruited, and combat troops are above the law. If necessary, the army can be mobilized.

If there is no Honkai, such an organization would not be able to exist in reality, and the leaders of various countries are not stupid, so why would they divide their power?

And there is another thing, because he worked part-time as a killer in the past few years, he helped Fire Moth eliminate many political enemies. While maintaining his own values, he also allowed those opposition parties to unite in advance, and the accumulated power should be stronger.

This is also the butterfly effect...

Ryan frowned and said coldly: "It seems that the second Honkai was not big enough to make them think that the disaster can still be controlled."

"Oh, humans are always short sighted when it comes to interests, and it's ugly and disgusting. You also know that the current situation is very delicate." Mobius smile turned into a mocking one, and he raised his head slightly: "The Fire Moths have taken up too many resources, and countries have had to cut welfare. There are strikes in Europe every day, and those leaders are very aggrieved."

Ryan couldn't laugh. Put yourself in his shoes. If you were the prime minister of a country, and you gave a large amount of financial resources to an organization, and then had to take the blame and put out fires every day, who would be satisfied?

With money, people, weapons, and cutting-edge technology, isn't this definitely a warlord?

"That's why the Fire Chasing Council is composed of elites from various countries. They make the organization grow, but also cause conflicts."

"A few people have swallowed up most of the profits. It's strange that others can be satisfied. Who knows if they have embezzled money, such as my experimental funds..."

Mobius spread out his hands helplessly, and Ryan glanced at her, also feeling helpless.

he is not a movie goer who can broadcast the despair of the end to all mankind. In fact, no one will believe it even if he broadcasts it, because humans only believe what they think.

Even if the end of the world comes, it will be difficult for humans to unite, not to mention the peace and prosperity they are experiencing now. They don't believe that the Honkai can destroy humanity, and ignorance makes people arrogant.

Gaming, infiltration, betrayal, alliance, and intrigue happen every day. This is one of the reasons why Ryan is reluctant to join the Fire Moth now.

How short-sighted and stupid.

"Okay, let's not talk about this crap. I'm only responsible for getting you out."

"It's helpless, right? Humans today are so short-sighted. So saving the world is not enough. We also need to let humans evolve and become more beautiful. And this path of evolution is the most magnificent epic."

"I know, and I understand you. From monkeys to walking upright, from primitive society to modern Era, humans are evolving." Ryan answered casually. He himself was on a path of infinite evolution, and his end point was Star God.

He quickly walked to the window, glanced outside quietly, opened the door, and then frowned slightly.

"Hey, what are you standing there for? Why don't you catch up?"

Mobius was holding a bucket of instant noodles and staring at Ryan. There seemed to be something else in his cold eyes.

"After hearing what you said, my impression of you has changed a little."

"What changes?"

Mobius was kneeling on the ground, his legs tightly closed in black stockings, his expression both cold and charming.

"You can understand this, which proves that we have a solid foundation with our peers."

For many years, everyone from short sighted high ranking officials to crude soldiers have found it difficult to understand my efforts for human evolution.

I clearly didn't know anything and thought the products on the operating table were monsters. No, they were just cocoons that would turn into beautiful butterflies sooner or later.

In the same industry? We do have some things in common.

Ryan had this idea in mind and walked away.

"Being faster, stronger, and smarter is what humans pursue. Okay, take your time to eat your noodles. I'm leaving now."

After saying that, he walked out of the room, ignoring the voice behind him saying "How about we cooperate?"

It was already the second half of the night, the moonlight was completely obscured by dark clouds, and the sound of alarm bells could be heard from afar in the silent night. Occasionally, there would be a drunk in the alley, but whenever they approached, Ryan would send them into a deep sleep like a baby.

The Fire Moth was still nowhere to be seen. Needless to say, it was held up by something. Ryan leaned against the alley and glanced at the empty street outside.

There was no one in sight, but the cameras were moving back and forth everywhere.

As expected, she hacked into the municipal network. The firewall was no different from a blank sheet of paper in front of Vill-V, and the cameras on the patrol police were also her eyes.

"As long as we find the approximate coordinates, we can directly cover the area with firepower. We can't kill Honkai beasts, but there are many ways to kill people."

Ryan was silent for a moment, then he had an idea.

He turned his head and saw Mobius hidden in the darkness, with only half of his face exposed: "I want you to do me a favor, okay?"

"no problem."

"You are so straightforward that it makes me feel a little guilty."

Mobius rolled his eyes at him and answered seriously, "I just suddenly realized that your life is more important than I thought. Picking up a corpse is fine. Tell me what you want me to do."

I take back my preface, it's still a weird one.

Ryan was too lazy to talk nonsense. He put on the headset and spoke faster: "First, give me the distress signal device. Second, find a way to hack into the network and find the terminal location of that Vill-V. Can you do it?"

"You must be joking. I'm a jack of all trades. Hacking is too easy for me." Mobius raised his chin quietly and asked, "You really don't want my help? Your life is an order of magnitude more important."

Ryan glanced at her, dropped his knees, and jumped directly onto the roof.

"No need. It's more dangerous to bring a burden with you."

"you!"

Ryan didn't even give her a chance to retort. He disappeared from her sight in the blink of an eye. The cold night breeze blew past, and the corners of her eyes twitched unconsciously.

The doctor stamped his feet heavily, but soon bent down again.

Hiss, it hurts, it hurts...
