Chapter 480
Even if she chooses to stay here, it is completely impossible.
It will cause an additional burden on the spirit particle calculation device Trismegistus, which will prevent Chaldea from being able to teleport to the next singularity.
More importantly, once the current singularity is repaired, the time and space in the singularity will collapse, causing her to disappear in the sense of existence, and she will still die.
——This is the same even if she escapes to other singularities.
After a long silence, Olga Marie spoke in a low voice:
"...Romani, get ready. Since the singularity has been completed, send Mashu and Ritsuka back to Chaldea."
"Eh? But..."
"Stop talking nonsense. The operation of Chaldea will be handed over to Kiara from now on. It's time for her, the deputy director, to go to work! And Fujimaru Ritsuka, you are an ordinary person. Although I don't want to admit it, since you are the only existing Master in Chaldea, I can only ask you to repair the singularity."
"Director..."
Looking at Olga Marie who turned her back, with her shoulders trembling slightly, but was forcibly suppressed, Ritsuka was speechless for a while.
In many ways, this can be said to be a last will.
"What are you doing? I am Olga Marie Asmirete Animusphia, the ruler of the Department of Astronomy, the head of Animusphia, and the director of Chaldea..."
"Don't underestimate me!"
Her hands were clenched into fists, and there was a hint of crying in her words, or even if she tried her best to suppress her emotions, she couldn't help but shed tears.
Chapter 620: Survival without meaning
It has to be said that for a girl who is only in her twenties and whose life is in its prime, it is too cruel to let her face death.
The only people who can face it calmly are those wise men who have a great understanding of life.
But unfortunately, there are only a few people.
Olga Marie obviously can't reach such an open-minded state...but being able to face her own death and leaving a last word to her successor is already amazing.
To be honest, if the outside world has not yet been burned by human reason, maybe there is still a way to think of a way, such as using the relationship of Animusphia to seek help from the Atlas Institute.
But now.....
Although they were very unwilling, all the people in Chaldea could do was to listen to and inherit each other's will.
"I.....Ah!"
Just when Olga Marie wanted to continue to say something, Lin Qiao, who couldn't bear it any longer, directly hit her, Mashu and Ritsuka on the head with a knife.
"It's too early to stage a sensational moment now... Do you think I don't exist?"
"It's also very important to learn how to ask for help from others."
Ignoring Olga Marie's angry glare and Ritsuka's whispered muttering, Lin Qiao took off the bracelet used for communication from Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand.
"Anyway, Dr. Roman, you guys should teleport Mashu and Ritsuka back first, and leave the rest to me... Of course, for the sake of safety, I hope to continue to use the spirit particle calculation device to observe this singularity and maintain Olga Marie's current state."
"I know, but is that all?"
"Let's do this for now. You can't help me with other things... But if you need me, I will contact you later using this bracelet."
After the voice fell, Lin Qiao hung up the communication, leaving Mashu and Ritsuka standing there with their eyes wide open.
"The director is really..."
"Don't worry, all you have to do now is to return to Chaldea as soon as possible, take a hot bath to put aside all your worries, and have a good sleep on the soft big bed."
Before Mashu could finish her words, Lin Qiao waved her hand.
And at this moment, the two of them emitted a faint glow, and their bodies gradually became transparent.
——They are leaving this singularity.
"Um, Mr. Lin..."
"No need to be so respectful, just call me Qiao directly, but what's wrong, is there anything else?"
"No, just..."
After hesitating for a while, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked up at Lin Qiao and said, "Although it's a bit sudden to say this, if possible, can Qiao come to Chaldea later?"
"Senior...!?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka's words instantly made Mashu next to him panic.
After all, even if the two sides are no longer enemies now, it is really too bold to directly recruit the other party to work in Chaldea under this situation.
"You are really rude, Ritsuka."
Shaking his head, Lin Qiao showed an interested look on his face, and facing his direct gaze, the latter's eyes did not shrink or waver at all.
"Because it takes more power to repair the singularity, but Chaldea, which has been severely damaged, does not have that kind of power, so I hope to use Qiao's power to protect human reason... and you said that you should learn to ask for help from others."
"Heh, you actually use my words to deal with me?"
Lin Qiao couldn't help but chuckled, but he didn't laugh at the other party's idea.
Although it was a bit too direct, he didn't hate this approach of not shying away from admitting that he was weak and trying to use all the power he could.
In other words, compared to the tough-talking situation, this is indeed a wise and correct approach.
"It's just a pity that I can't agree to your request."
Hearing what Lin Qiao said, Fujimaru Ritsuka had a look of disappointment on his face.
"But I can promise that if you encounter an unsolvable crisis in the future, I can help you."
"Eh? Wait, let's put it this way..." Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes lit up.
"That's the literal meaning. Oh, by the way, there's one more thing I want to tell you about the Roman Singularity..."
After a few brief explanations, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu disappeared due to the transfer of spirit children.
Only Lin Qiao and Olga Marie, who was a little overwhelmed, were left in the big hole.
"I finally left..."
He shook his head and said nothing more.
Not long after the two girls left, Lin Qiao took out the bracelet he took from Fujimaru Ritsuka and pressed the button on it.
"Continue the topic, doctor, about some things I concealed before."
Looking at Dr. Roman's projection in front of her, Lin Qiao's tone became more serious.
The latter did not show any surprise at Lin Qiao's sudden contact.
Although he has lost his power, he is still the same King Solomon he once was, and he can still understand some of the hints in his words.
"But I can ask first, why can't you say it in front of Mashu and the others?"
"Because of pressure." Lin Qiao explained calmly.
"Although pressure is motivation to a certain extent, for them now, the pressure caused by physical therapy alone is enough, and any more will only make them breathless."
"I understand, please continue."
Dr. Roman nodded. It was not that he didn't understand the reasoning.
Even though the pressure caused by the insanity has indeed been felt by everyone in Chaldea, the responsibilities faced by frontline combatants and logistical support personnel are different.
As the only Master in Chaldea, too much pressure might crush the girl's spirit.
And more importantly, Lin Qiao's words vaguely revealed something even more sinister than having a fever.
"First of all, you must understand one thing, that is, human incineration is only a means, not an end."
"Eh? Didn't I say this before? The purpose of human incineration is to energize human beings and go to the ancient times to reshape the planet..."
"So as I said, it's just a means, just like burning a fire to keep warm, but if there is nothing wrong, who will light a fire to keep warm?"
Not to mention burning the entire history of mankind.
"So you're saying... the incineration itself was just to prevent a bigger disaster?"
"That's right, it's called "Human Freeze""
It is undeniable that Goetia's incineration of human psychology was indeed mixed with some private goods, but as far as the starting point itself is concerned, it is indeed a method adopted to prevent the freezing of human psychology.
But for everyone in Chaldea, they could only feel chills running down their backs.
Good guy, I didn’t even come out of the Novice Village, but I learned such exciting news. Especially the more I listened to Lin Qiao’s words, the more I felt that Goetia’s side was right...ah this, this, this!
Of course, the one with the most complicated mentality is Dr. Roman.
When he heard that the culprit of human body incineration was the spell he created, he did feel a kind of despair that was about to suffocate, but now it seems... Although there is indeed a bug in the code, it doesn't seem to be what he wrote. It's all shit.
"So we humans deserve to be exterminated...?"
I don’t know who was the first to sigh like this, but it doesn’t matter anymore.
A mood called despair enveloped Chaldea.
Compared to a terrifying opponent like Goetia, perhaps the fact that he looks like a villain in a movie makes him even more sad.
After all, now that humanity is being burned down, their greatest support is their belief in saving humanity.
And if even this last belief is denied and lost, then why and what will they fight for next?
"Stop feeling sorry for yourself."
Lin Qiao's sharp scolding from the other end of the communication brought people who had fallen into despair and confusion back to their senses.
"Listen up, I'm telling you about the human freeze just to give you a vaccination in advance so that you won't be able to react to what happens if you are attacked by someone in the future."
"For human beings, regardless of good or evil or other messy things, survival itself is the greatest meaning."
"If you can't even think about this kind of thing, you'd better go outside Chaldea as soon as possible and experience the cold wind of minus 50 degrees to sober up!"
It is true that Goetia has a great sense of responsibility to resist the freezing of human nature, but this does not mean that humans should be allowed to be slaughtered by it.
Reason for resistance?
No, no need, or survival itself is the biggest reason.
No existence can deprive human beings of their right to exist based on so-called righteousness...even if the object is human nature itself.
It has nothing to do with anything else, just to survive.
Chapter 621 The third method cannot save Director Chaldea
In general, although there is such a trivial thing as human reason, in Lin Qiao's view, Goetia is indeed a combat force that can be tried for in the future.
If we do this, we can have a powerful ally in the future when facing the human freeze.
Secondly, we can prevent a champion who is here to slack off from self-destructing.
And after all, both sides have a common enemy... the real battle has not yet begun.
Of course, before that, Chaldea needs to slap Goetia in the face.
While teaching the other party a lesson, we must also prove that we have the ability to become the other party's ally and stop the human freeze.
——I have to admit that it is not easy to do this.
But the biggest advantage of Chaldea is that there is a champion who is here to slack off... Don't think about using that crappy self-destructing treasure every day, and work overtime to modify the shitty code you wrote!
So in general, although things are difficult, it cannot be said that there is no chance at all.
Of course, before that, Lin Qiao still had to deal with the troubles related to Olga Marie first...
"Wait! What are you doing? No! Not there! Absolutely not!"
"Here too... Hehehe! Ahhhhh!"
In the large cave of Yuanzang Mountain, Olga Marie's screams and cries echoed.
Although it was indeed a treatment, the sound made by the person involved really made people have some kind of reverie, making people doubt whether this treatment was serious.
