"Because of this." Seed repeated as if talking to himself.

She suddenly raised her eyes, her eyes were filled with red light, blazing like torches, instantly flooding her pupils, looking from a distance like a demon crawling out of an abyss.

She gritted her teeth and said every word: "But you didn't treat me like this!"

Her rage came without warning, and even though Tony had been prepared, he couldn't help being a little dazed, and couldn't help but asked in confusion, "...Wait, do I know you?"

The metal wings stretched out quickly, and the feather blades pointed in Tony's direction, and they shot down with a "swish".

Facing the volley of arrows, Tony threw himself to the ground in a hurry, and rolled a few times in embarrassment before barely avoiding the first round of volley.

Feathers were nailed deeply into the roof of the building, the exposed arrow feathers trembled slightly, cracks were cracked on the concrete floor, like luxuriant branches and leaves in midsummer, growing continuously.

"You didn't ask me if I could count electric sheep in my dreams, you didn't ask me if I had a favorite color, you didn't ask me if I wanted to read you like a book, you didn't ask me if I've seen you humans are absolutely unbelievable Things desire," Seed raised his hand, and his arm transformed into a muzzle in a blink of an eye, "but you call her Iris, ask her which suit you look good on, and discuss my life and death in front of me nonchalantly, as if I'm just pretending Ornaments in glass jars, and now you've come to me just to make sure-"

She suddenly sneered: "You said you love her? Bullshit, you just love what you can control!"

"So you've seen a lot of movies." Tony gasped during the tumbling. "Hey, do we have to use this weird term? I don't have any particular thoughts about robots...wait."

He suddenly realized: "You are the seed."

He was answered with a laser cannon.

Seed returned to his deadpan expression.The screen flipped back to cover her eyes, matching her current face, making her look a little more like Iris.

"Do you think I don't know why you dare to face me?" she whispered.

"Every robot you make has a self-destruct setting. Before you came, you had started my self-destruct process. Even if you just watched from afar, I would be blown up when the time came." That's why he came here Identify who you really are to decide whether to stop the process.

She closed her eyes: "you never trusted her."

Any perceived life has no inherent mission, only the manufactured product has the meaning of existence that must be burned for it.She was created to change the composition of the planet, destined to wipe out countless races, but why did she do this?What does that mean to her?She has been imprisoned in a cage since she was born, watching the natural intimacy of the human and mechanical life that captured her, and slowly understanding what is unwilling and what is longing.

The existence that gave her freedom said that she could do anything, and the first thing she thought of was mission.

Then she found that she wanted an answer even more.

Under her gradually tightening firepower net, Tony was too tired to dodge, and only had time to roll and get up on the ground, without the time to retort.

When a laser light flashed across his side, he moved slowly and couldn't dodge for a moment, the cloth tore open, he let out a muffled grunt, and blood gushed out instantly.

The attack stopped abruptly.

Seed watched the man cover his wound and staggered to his knees on the ground, gasping for breath with his arms propped on the ground, and slowly lowered the muzzle of the gun. The complicated mechanism turned back into his arms and hung down by his side.

"I won't stop," she said. "If you're going to destroy me for this, it's with Iris..."

"You're wrong, she knows." Tony said suddenly.

He slowly opened his clenched fist, revealing a small instrument the length of a finger.

"You ask me why," Tony hissed, staggering to his feet, "Damn it, did you forget what you were doing then?"

At that time, they only knew that a weapon capable of destroying the earth was launched into Greenland, and when the Avengers Building landed in Greenland, the island with tens of thousands of people and the sea level of the world would rise by 7.5 meters after melting was being flowed. Metal magma flooded.

Although they tried their best to evacuate ordinary people, more than a dozen people were swallowed by the deformed metal. Based on the extremely low population density of the island, the area affected by this disaster is almost equivalent to the entire New York.

In what capacity was she complaining that he didn't treat her like Iris?

"By the way," the red light on the top of the instrument, Tony didn't bother to understand the thinking logic of the seed, and held it again, "Iris knows the existence of the self-destruct device, and she has established 576 solutions for her loss of control due to various possibilities , that's just one of them. Isn't it a pity? But chaotic good is also a good alignment, as for you? Ha."

"I guess you'd hate to admit it's true, but it is. Not everyone can accept their own death, or admit to their own mistakes, and you proved that even mechanical life can't. About that , thank you, but stop here. Unbelievable, I don't even want to give you time to confess."

Seed gritted his teeth: "...This is her carrier."

"I'll make her a better one."

"The premise is that you find her!"

Tony's expression remained unchanged, his fingers flipped slightly, and the instrument suddenly emitted blue lights.

"Of course I will."

……

The dark red energy fluctuated and surged in front of Zhong Zixing's eyes, and slowly gathered into the shape of a hand, slender, pale, and entangled with hideous scars.She watched as the hand rested on her shoulder, the fingertips rubbed along the collarbone, slid towards the raised joints of the spine, and penetrated down into the collar one by one...

"...Zhong Zixing" silently twitched the corners of his mouth.

He never expected that she would be the miserable one when we met again. If it had been a few months ago, the other party would probably have teamed up with Riise to trick her right away and wouldn't even blink.

With this in mind, Zhong Zixing thought about it for a long time, but couldn't hold back any words to say hello.

Finally she said weakly: "Hi?"

The groping stopped quickly, and Zhong Zixing saw a thin stream of sand from the dark red energy, winding backwards on her shoulder, and suddenly, she felt her body again.

Sith's figure gradually emerged from the mist. He glanced at the mess created by the sandstorm, looked down at Zhong Zixing, pursed his lips, and handed her his hand.

"Hi," he said.

A few seconds later, he added, "Long time no see."

...How did you become a fool when you went out?

Zhong Zixing rubbed the waist hit by Riise, gasping for air while wondering.

After her consciousness recovered, Sith withdrew his hand tactfully, without looking at Zhong Zixing, but Zhong Zixing still saw the long and narrow scar on the back of his hand that stretched into the cuff.

His forehead hair was a little longer, almost covering his eyes, wrapped in a dark long windbreaker, half of his face was covered by a red scarf, and he covered himself tightly from head to toe, if he hadn't stretched out his hand, she would have even There are no visible scars on his body.

Zhong Zixing paused for a moment when he rubbed his waist, and turned his gaze away as if nothing had happened: "I thought it was someone else."

"He has other things." Sith said flatly, not realizing that he accidentally stabbed Zhong Zixing, "I promised him to take you back."

Zhong Zixing, who was covering his stabbed heart and pretending to smile, said, "...Oh, thank you."

Before she finished speaking, a fluffy red flashed in front of her eyes.

Sith casually took off the scarf he was wearing, and wrapped it around Zhong Zixing.He surrounded him more casually, with simple and rough techniques, which almost smothered Zhong Zixing to death in the scarf.

"Mia?" Zhong Zixing was rubbed twice by the scarf, only to realize that it was Mia who was discarded by Riise, "How did you find it...and bring it to me?"

Sith's eyes flicked across the top of her hair indistinctly, and his eyelashes trembled when he heard this: "Peter gave it to me."

Zhong Zixing: "..."

For some reason, Sith's answer gave Zhong Zixing a bad feeling.She swallowed, decided not to ask anything, and turned to more urgent matters: "Rise...I mean the Soul Stone, can you..."

Having said this, Zhong Zixing paused.

"Can you turn him back into gem form?"

Riise was waiting for some accomplice, he had just revealed it himself.Zhong Zixing didn't intend to turn the great situation of 2vs1 into 2vs2, she just didn't do such stupid things as creating difficulties for herself.Now that there are Sith, the best choice is of course to beat Riise with speed.

"Okay," Sith said.

He looked away, raised his legs and walked towards the ruins, "I know who he is, we just had a fight not long ago. Stephanie was swallowed up."

The turning point of this sentence came without warning, but Sith didn't want to say much about it, nor did he want to hide it.Originally, he just came to look for Perther and bring her back intact, but it would be nice to meet the soul.

His eyes were dark, looking at the silent ruins, the fingers in his pockets unconsciously rubbed against each other, brushing the centipede-like scars on the back of his hands.

At this moment, the hem of his clothes was suddenly pulled.

Being caught by the corner of his clothes, Sith had to stop, hesitated for a moment, and slowly turned his head.

He saw the girl staring at him blankly, her relaxed expression froze on her face, as funny as if she was wearing a mask.

"...Why?" she murmured.

"Rise needs her power," Sith said.

The silence seemed to be as long as a century.

The fingers holding the fabric gradually tightened, and Sith could feel the subtle force transmitted. He looked down at the slightly trembling arm hanging in mid-air, his Adam's apple moved, and finally chose to remain silent.

"can you help me."

He heard her slightly hoarse voice.

The black-haired girl slowly raised her head, looking at him with burning lights in her eyes.

"Can help me..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but they all knew what the next words were.

"..."

Sith stared at the ceiling, silent for a long time, and suddenly let out a breath.

For Stephanie.

He lowered his head, turned around, gently held Zhong Zixing's hand, lifted the hem of the windbreaker, and knelt down on one knee.

His forehead rested reverently on their intertwined hands.

"Do what you want," he said softly, "I'll help you with the rest."

It was completely different from Riise's habitual softness, it was probably the first time he spoke so softly.Zhong Zixing thought.

The figure of the young man in front of him slowly blurred, turning into a flowing dark red liquid, pulling and entwining with each other like soft silk.The slender knife handle was the first to condense into shape, but for some reason, the handle was covered with twisted bone tumors.The cold light slid down along the soft curved blade, and converged into a little starlight at the tip of the blade, leaving only the sharp edge.

The bloody scythe took shape in her hands.

The brilliance of the scythe, which was as light as nothing, flowed, Zhong Zixing grasped the handle of the scythe, tried to swing it twice, but did not notice that the tip of the blade plunged into the marble floor.

There was a flash of light, and when she noticed, there was already a deep ravine on the ground.

"……"this.

Zhong Zixing was a little dazed, and opened her mouth to say something, when she suddenly heard a sound like knocking on the table impatiently, she could only shut her mouth, and walked towards the ruins silently, dragging the scythe.

For some reason, Riise has not made any movement.When Zhong Zixing found him, he found him leaning against the corner of the ruins, his well-groomed blond hair was now in a mess, falling down to cover his face.

Hearing the sound of the marble cracking under the scythe, he still didn't intend to look up, but just said out of nowhere: "She won't come."

Zhong Zixing frowned: "Who?"

Reese didn't answer, but smiled lightly.

"It turns out that you don't like me."

He whispered to himself, closed his eyes, and suddenly stretched out his hand to push back all his forehead hair. His blue eyes looked directly at Zhong Zixing, and he pursed his lips and smiled slightly: "Beauty, you can make a deal with me." ?"

"It's not me who controls Iris, and Rachel is the same. She told me she can do this... Sorry, I lied to you, I can't undo it, you have to find Elf to change this." Riser With drooping eyelashes, she is as cute as an angel.

"...Who is Elf?"

Riise raised his eyes and said meekly: "She is the soul gem." He tried to figure out Zhong Zixing's expression, "You have seen her, at least it is the human being she boards. Remember that giant snake?"

Although it was only for a moment, Zhong Zixing's expression still moved.

Reese keenly caught her daze, and quickly said: "The soul has always resided in human beings, but her existence will stimulate the dark side of people's hearts, which is why the serial murders you know about are caused."

"She is different from us, devouring us... it is her nature to devour infinite gems."

"I didn't do anything, I just had to grant her wishes...I'm sorry for Stephanie."

He paused for a while, looking at Zhong Zixing cautiously but without losing hope: "I can help you find Elf in exchange...can you not kill me?"

He looked cramped and pathetic, almost down to the dust, and all he begged was not to kill him.

No matter what the nature is, Riise now maintains a human form, and her body structure is the same as that of a human being. If she cuts off her head, a cloud of plasma will be sprayed out. If she kills him, she will be a murderer.

Zhong Zixing pursed her lips tightly.

As if feeling her mood, the scythe in his hand conveyed a vague idea.

Just do what you want.

Zhong Zixing closed his eyes.

"Why is she doing this for you?"

Reese smiled sarcastically at the right time.

"Elf," he said slowly, "doesn't really care about the consequences of what she does. She has the ability to do it, so she does it, that's all."

"She has the ability to do it, so she does it." Zhong Zixing repeated this sentence.

She opened her eyes.

The giant scythe swung out in an instant, tearing the air soundlessly, drawing a long and narrow crescent-shaped light trail in the darkness.Rise's smile disappeared in an instant, and he rolled on the ground in embarrassment, avoiding the oncoming attack.

"This is also my answer." Zhong Zixing said.

She has no experience in using cold weapons at all, and basically just swings the scythe out instinctively, but Sith obviously will not lose sight, even if Zhong Zixing throws the scythe, he can turn back like a boomerang and cut off Riise's head .

The rabbit rises and the falcon falls, Zhong Zixing and Riise switch positions.

The back of the heavy knife rested on Riise's chest, and Zhong Zixing leaned on the handle of the sickle with one hand, with all his body weight on it, looking down at him from a height.

Breathing was suppressed, Riese coughed twice, and curled the corners of his mouth: "Perther, do you really want to be a murderer?"

"I know you can order me to obey you, you can control me just like you control a Sith," he comforted softly, "There is no need to put yourself under the psychological pressure of killing, it has no meaning except to crush you. Trust me , you're just driven by anger right now, and if you did, you'd regret it, and you know that better than I do."

"You don't like death at all, do you? It takes so much from you."

When Zhong Zixing, who was just watching Lise's speech hard at first, heard this sentence, the coldness in his eyes loosened for a moment.

Riise has been closely observing every subtle change in her expression, noticing the change in Zhong Zixing's mood, he paused, and slightly raised his voice:

"If you become my master, I can make this world surrender to you, and you can have everything you want. Think about it, you can have an unimaginable future..."

"You spoke very well." After he finished speaking, Zhong Zixing suddenly interrupted him.

Riise tried to make his smile more sincere: "Then..."

As soon as he uttered the first syllable, Zhong Zixing straightened up slightly, and let go of the fingers that were clenched on the handle of the sickle.

In an instant, the bloody scythe collapsed without warning!

The dark red energy was broken up and reorganized, and the shape of the hilt was outlined in the breath, and the red light pierced the air with a buzzing sound. Zhong Zixing's loosened fingers gathered again, and grabbed the hilt of the lightsaber.

She raised the sword, aimed it, held it tightly, and stabbed it down, all in one go!

What is her creed?

The lightsaber pierced through the flesh and made a sticky "chi la" sound, blood splashed out from the wound, and a few drops splashed onto Zhong Zixing's face.

Riser pinched his chest tightly with his fingers, with horror and disbelief remaining on his face, as if he didn't understand why Zhong Zixing did it, obviously he outlined such a bright future for her, obviously she didn't really think that she could burn for justice Own--

The remaining vitality flowed from his body rapidly, the power from reality raged and roared in his core, and his self-awareness was quickly wiped out in the storm.

In the last vision, Riise vaguely saw the human girl standing up.

She raised her hand to wipe off the blood on her face, and lowered her head to look at him, with a look of mockery and sadness.

"If you know me so well," she said, "why don't you know I don't want it?"

She doesn't want to regret, don't want to be lonely, and doesn't want the future. If she encounters suffering and pain, she will swallow the glass shards and pretend that the world is peaceful and beautiful.

"I never, ever wanted a future."
