I am a former Flame Chasers

Ryan scanned the dark cabin and found it was full of cables, screens, and some unnamed instruments. Each one looked crude, messy, and incomprehensible. Anyway, with his knowledge, he couldn't see any use for them.

Leaving all this aside for now, he set his sights on the girl ten meters away.

She wore a wide brimmed hat and a leather jacket that looked like gears. Her waist was narrowed, forming a perfect curve with her protruding breasts. Her eyes were even more strange, as if she was curious but also afraid, eager but introverted.

Just like a spiral of contradictions, it is hard to tell the real her.

"Vill-V, the most wanted criminal of the Fire Moth?"

"Well, I don't deserve the title of the most wanted criminal. I just have a little reputation." Vill-V scratched her hair and said a little depressed: "I didn't expect that besides the pink fairy, there is also a superman like you in the Fire Moth."

Tearing machines apart with hands and cutting iron like paper, this is something that humans cannot do.

Ryan was amused for a moment, but he maintained a serious expression: "Do you think the Honkai was caused by the Fire Moth?"

"Otherwise, why are you trying so hard to cover it up? And I destroyed several laboratories. The things inside... Tsk, tsk, I can't even describe how disgusting they are." Vill-V counted on her fingers, her tone becoming more and more certain: "Out of control imaginary energy, a large number of human experiments, and some experimental subjects failed, but there are also finished products like you. As long as they have a superman like you, the Fire Moth can rule the world. Hey, what are you laughing at!"

Phew, you've watched too many movies.

Ryan couldn't help laughing, and at the same time he felt that Vill-V had some truth in his words. Some of the top leaders of the Fire Moth did have this idea, and in the name of fighting the Honkai, they eliminated many dissidents.

"So you think you should be the savior?"

"Not really. With the world as the stage and an evil organization like yours as the villain..." Vill-V puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Such a great show, of course, needs a protagonist!"

She is truly a 'magician' who deceived herself. I almost forgot that she is also a 'fraudster'.

"The stage is indeed big, but you have picked the wrong opponent. Also, take out your left hand. It will only take me two seconds to kill you. Your toys can't stop me."

Vill-V confident expression froze. She looked at Ryan slowly raised fist, her mouth twitching as she took out her left hand. Sure enough, she was holding a controller in her palm.

"Uh...how do you know me so well?"

Ryan did not answer this question, but just stared at Vill-V seriously, which made her feel creepy. After a long time, she shook her head gently.

"You are such a genius. You have come up with so many troublesome things without a laboratory. How did you do it?"

Vill-V eyes lit up, and she immediately forgot about the terrifying man in front of her. She patted her chest, causing a slight wave of flesh.

"Because I think it sounds interesting to see the gears meshing, the steam roaring, and turning the unattainable fantasy into reality, right?"

I'm looking for the power of thought? Are you a green skin?

Ryan didn't know where to start complaining, so he put his hands down and told her not to speak in a hurry.

"Are you relaxed because you think I'm easy to talk to?"

"Hehe, if Fire Moth wants to kill me, I'm afraid he won't wait until now. It's impossible that you are too lonely and want to chat with me? Impossible, you have that Mobius as your girlfriend, even though she is very mean."

Who would want Mobius, that poisonous snake, as a girlfriend? Do you think your life span is too long?

In an instant, Ryan eyes turned fierce: "Don't think too much. Based on the information you got, the Fire Moth will definitely kill you. There will be no chance for you to be imprisoned in the deepest place."

Ryan has thought it through. If Vill-V is just a troublemaker, it would be fine to lock her up. After all, her achievements in engineering are extremely high and she will be very useful in dealing with Honkai. But she is involved in a power struggle, which is a matter of life and death.

"If I'm not mistaken, you don't know who the informant is, but you didn't expect to be caught by me."

"It's inevitable that people make mistakes in calculation. Who knew you were dating that doctor in the middle of the night?" Vill-V scratched her face. Of course she knew the danger, but magic shows are supposed to be thrilling.

"I'll say it again. Mobius and I just happened to meet."

"I understand. I understand."

"What do you know!" Ryan took a deep breath and brought the topic back to the topic, "Do you know why you fell into my hands?"

Vill-V was more serious this time and answered immediately: "Apart from coincidence, the most important thing is the nature of power. The cost-effectiveness ratio of ordinary weapons and Honkai energy is about one to ten, just like the trebuchet and artillery. The gap has a dimension. If I want to be on the same level as you supermen, I have to make good use of this energy."

"For example, we can use it as an energy core and create a Honkai laser cannon. It would be best if we could convert it into electrical energy or something."

Ryan nodded as he listened. It turned out that Vill-V was committed to creating a spiral of "common sense" and "anti-common sense", which could be considered a kind of assessment.

Humans still think that everything is under control, but Ryan knows that this is a crushing of the Era level. The courage of a common man is useless, and defeating the Honkai does not depend on Kevin reckless rush.

The contributions of Mobius, Mei, Vill-V and others were even greater. Without the Fusion Warrior and God's Key Plan, Era would have been destroyed long ago and would not have survived until the end of time.

"You've passed."

"Ah? What does that mean?" Vill-V didn't quite understand. She saw something thrown over there. She picked it up and saw that it was a data disk.

"There are some files on the Fire Moth and some research on Honkai in there. You should clear things up first."

"Are you trying to recruit me? Or are you planning to betray the Fire Moth?" Vill-V raised the USB flash drive. She could make up stories, but she couldn't be fooled by data.

"I'm just trying to save your life. Don't jump out and get yourself killed. The Fire Moths will soon be too busy to care about political struggles, and your talent is exactly what they need."

"Why?"

"Because the desire to survive is the first instinct of human beings, and it is especially strong for those who are in a high position." Ryan did not explain too much, and smiled confidently: "As for you, the future stage is even more magnificent, and you will not refuse it."

It's mysterious, but sounds interesting.

Vill-V grabbed it and stuffed it into the cleavage of her chest. She always felt that the man in front of her was more like a magician than herself, with an unfathomable sense of mystery.

"Well, since you know so many secrets and you're not satisfied with what they do, why don't you try to change it?"

"Because I'm not strong enough, and the world hasn't reached a true existential crisis yet."

"What if we get there?"

"Easy, physically wipe them out."

Ryan spoke briefly and to the point, and then he saw Vill-V expression become strange. It was not surprise, nor admiration. It was as if she wanted to engrave him in her mind.

"I kind of want to stay with you and help."

"Why?"

Vill-V put her hands behind her back, made the same cold expression as Ryan, and said simply: "Because this character is very cool."

"Get out of here!"

"Got it." Vill-V gave a weird military salute and stamped her feet lightly.

The steel floor cracked right before Ryan eyes, and he realized that the patterns on the floor were all cut marks. In the blink of an eye, a large hole appeared in the center of the cabin.

Various instruments fell into the sea with a crash. Ryan grabbed the steel beam above his head and looked down, only to see a black miniature submarine sinking into the water.

It turns out that this guy had already thought of a way out.

Ryan mouth twitched. Vill-V appearance was very deceptive, as if there were many people living in that body. However, when you peel off the magician's appearance, you will find that she is a cunning fraudster.

With her brain, she should be able to understand the truth about the Honkai soon. It's better than being locked up in the deepest place. That kind of imagination will be indispensable in the future.

"The person who provided her with the information was quite powerful and was able to infiltrate the Far East Branch."

Ryan didn't think much about it. There is no shortage of self-righteous and ambitious people in this world. But as he answered, when the time comes, he doesn't have the patience to engage in power struggles with them.

Vill-V has escaped, and they will notice me because they are guilty. This is a good thing, as it will save a lot of trouble in the future. By then, no one can bear to fight against the Honkai while being on guard against backstabs.

Ryan was not panicked. The third Honkai was the turning point. After that, the world would quickly slide into the abyss, so he pressed the microphone.

"The matter has been resolved. Let's get the people from the Far East Branch over here."

"You killed Vill-V?" Mobius voice was a little complicated.

"No, she escaped. She is indeed a cunning magician."

The headset was silent for several seconds before a cold reply came: "You don't trust me?"

Mobius was not a retard and could tell immediately that Ryan was lying, and Ryan knew that this woman would not tell on anyone, so he explained.

"The truth means nothing to you, and I'm too lazy to waste my time explaining it."

"But you will be in trouble. To be honest, I guarantee that there is a 50% chance that Vill-V will not die."

"I don't want to bet on my other half. In terms of value, that group of people combined cannot compare to her. As for me, you don't have to worry about me." Ryan adjusted his glasses and looked at the helicopter flying in the distance.

"I am an expert at dealing with Honkai, but when it comes to killing people—"

"I'm more of an expert."
