Meet the principal
Act 425. The great escape
Reiner's words echoed in the empty hall, making Hohenheim entranced.
The reason why he fell into madness was because he saw the end of the world. He believed that no matter how he moved forward, it would be difficult to escape the fate of destruction. As long as humans are still humans, one day, he will personally exterminate himself, and Hohenheim Everything done to promote magic only accelerates the self-destruction of mankind.
But Reiner told Hohenheim that precisely because he is a human being, he can keep moving forward, has infinite possibilities, and can break away from the shackles of fate. It would be foolish to stagnate due to possible destruction.
Hohenheim was confused.
With all the past events raging in his heart, Hohenheim could no longer see the things around him. There seemed to be a woman standing in front of him. Her appearance was somewhat similar to Hellaison's, but she was significantly older.
"Villa Sheila, what should I do?"
Hohenheim asked, a question that had been gnawing in his mind for hundreds of years but could never find an answer to.
"You actually knew the answer all along, Hohenheim, but you just didn't want to face it."
The woman said extremely gently.
"I……"
In Hohenheim's eyes, there was confusion, recollection, and sadness.
"I see."
He was silent for a long time and finally nodded.
"I know, Vera Sheila."
With Hohenheim's words, all the illusions disappeared, and the shackles surrounding him were shattered in an instant.
In reality, just after Reiner finished speaking, he felt that the entire ruins seemed to be shaking.
"Is it an explosion?"
Some dust fell on the ceiling, Reiner frowned slightly, and then, a certain sound came into his ears.
It was like countless bugs crawling across it, like fingernails scratching the glass, sharp, harsh, and uncomfortable.
"It's those monsters."
Phyllis was the first to react. A look of panic appeared on her face for the first time, and she exclaimed in a low voice.
"This ruins is filled with monster lairs. It seems that these monsters that have been sleeping for a long time have woken up because they smelled the scent of humans."
In the memory from the previous era, Phyllis had already seen the power of these monsters. This was a nightmare that lasted from the previous era, a doomsday created by humans themselves. At this moment, in this place where mages cannot use magic, In the Dead Zone, this kind of creature can rely on its numerical advantage to quickly kill everyone present.
"There should be an exit here."
Reiner asked. Phyllis seemed to be second only to Mr. Hohenheim in her familiarity with this ruins. Since she dared to come in with the Chaos Serpents, she should naturally know how to get out.
"Of course."
Phyllis said, taking out a map drawn on parchment from the package hanging behind her.
It seems that she has known about the existence of claustrophobic space for a long time, and knows that most of the magic props here will be ineffective, and if things are placed in the storage bag, they will not be taken out at all.
Therefore, we specially prepared physical bags.
"This is a map of this ruins, from the Serpent of Chaos. Although the structure here is complex, there is only one exit, which is the hall in the center of the ruins."
Phyllis pointed to the center of the map, and then marked a nearby hall.
"This is where we are now, not far from the exit."
"Without further ado, let's get out of here."
Reiner said as he carried Helleson, who had little breath left, on his back. Although he knew that this was a doll, Reiner believed that Helleson had given him a lot of help before, and he could not ignore it.
Phyllis glanced at it but said nothing.
"Sir Hohenheim, let's leave quickly."
Reiner yelled, and regardless of whether Hohenheim agreed, he picked him up and forced him out of the room.
As for the box that carried the memory of the world, Phyllis put it into her luggage bag and took it away with her.
The three of them followed the map's guidance and soon saw an open door.
At this time, a figure appeared on the other side of the door.
"Reiner, and this is...Master Hohenheim!!?"
Newington was sweating profusely and panting. He looked back from time to time to confirm what was behind him.
"Mr. Newington, as long as you're okay, let's get out of here quickly."
Reiner didn't bother to explain and walked into the hall.
There was already another person in the hall, and it turned out to be Mr. Alberton, who had been missing before.
"I discovered this place after exploring the peculiarities of this space. I thought this should be the connection between this space and the outside world."
Lord Alberton said hurriedly. He also saw Lord Hohenheim and saluted hurriedly.
"Master Hohenheim."
Hohenheim, who was still in a dazed state, did not respond, and the other mages couldn't care less.
The sound of countless crawling insects was getting closer and closer, and several black shadows seemed to have appeared at the end of the long corridor in the distance.
"Where is Lord Penzance?"
Reiner asked when he couldn't see Penzance.
"Teacher, in order to save me..."
Newington shook his head and sighed.
"...He still can't let you go after all."
Lord Alberton sighed, and then turned his attention to Phyllis, who was studying the black stone pillar in the center of the hall.
"Do you know how to get out of here?"
Phyllis glanced at the legendary mage, and then continued to fumble on the smooth black pillar.
On the other side, opposite the open door, at the end of the long corridor in the distance, a monster rushed out from the corner.
One, two, three, more and more monsters gathered into a black torrent, sweeping towards this hall.
"I can only hold on once. "
Lord Alberton said that he was condensing magic power. The legendary mage has stronger power than the high-level mage in the dead zone, but it is only to the extent that he can use magic one or two more times.
As the monster got closer and closer, everyone's hearts were in their throats.
Just when the monster at the front was about to arrive at the gate, a ray of light bloomed in Lord Alberton's palm.
Boom boom boom boom——
The space near the gate seemed to be distorted. The monster at the front immediately exploded due to the distortion of the space. Before the black blood splashed, the entire gate collapsed, blocking the way in.
Bang bang bang——
Through the rubble, the sounds of monsters' constant collisions could be heard. The buried ruins also shook, and pieces of rubble collapsed.
"Not okay yet?"
Newington asked anxiously. He saw Phyllis' hand moving across the black pillar, and finally touched a different position.
"Yes."
Felice's eyes lit up and she pressed it immediately.
A ray of light bloomed from the black pillar, and everyone's eyes were filled with colors. ...
