Chapter 834

The players and Mei did not believe the Herrscher of Corruption's words, feeling she was lying.

At the same time, they began to ponder the purpose of the Herrscher of Corruption doing this.

After thinking for a moment, Mei suppressed the anger in her heart and began to converse seriously with this Herrscher, feigning calmness:

"I am quite surprised you would say that."

"Who told me to take over 【her】 data~" The Herrscher of Corruption pointed to her own face:

"You should know better than me that in this world, no one cherishes this unique, beautiful appearance more than she—that is, the current me."

"While accepting external data, I am also constantly growing."

"Because I have life, I learn to fear death; because I have a form, I understand the pursuit of beauty... because I have nothing, I want to cherish everything~"

"Born from nothingness, I am slowly understanding the meaning of 【living】~ If you simply think of me as an enemy of humanity, that would be a bit of a misunderstanding, wouldn't it?"

"Misunderstanding?" Mei sneered.

But before she could speak, the Herrscher of Corruption defended herself first: "Yes... I invaded the Elysian Realm, that is an undeniable fact."

"After all, the foundation of my existence is constant 【corruption】."

"But you must know, Mei—" Saying this, the Herrscher of Corruption's tone became slightly gentler.

"I have never had the thought of harming anyone, even if they are just memory bodies composed of data." Her gentleness sounded more like she was bewitching Mei.

After speaking, she laughed again: "And the fact is just that, look, everything in the Elysian Realm hasn't disappeared~"

"Although they don't exist in the form you are familiar with, now, they are right by our side~ right..."

She pointed to her own head: "Right here~"

"After the corruption is complete, they become a part of me; conversely, 【I】 also become a part of them~"

"Precisely because I was once a blank slate, I can fully accept everything about them."

"I obtained their data, experienced their journeys, and inherited their emotions and will~"

"So, you can completely regard me as the continuation of the heroes' lives~ Does saying this... make you feel a bit more cheerful?"

Surely no one would agree with the twisted logic the Herrscher of Corruption was spouting.

·· ······Seeking flowers··· ·····

But at the same time, many players fell into deep thought.

This reminded them of the 【Herrscher of Sentience】.

【I thought of Senti...】

【Yeah... you guys say, could the Herrscher of Corruption really have been made foolish by Elysia's memories?】

【But she looks... not as silly as Senti... and killing Elysia, then impersonating her appearance... I can't accept it.】

【I can't accept it either, those things she said just now were simply killing the heart and soul, it's too disgusting!】

【Did you forget, she is the Herrscher of Corruption!! So it should be that she swallowed Elysia's memories, rather than absorbing them...】

【The person above is right, which means—she will definitely not become a second Senti.】

"... 【Cheerful】?"

In the game, Mei could no longer hide the anger in her heart.

This Herrscher clearly killed them in the Elysian Realm, and now she was so righteous in telling her that she was the continuation of their lives?

Those obituaries fluttering like snowflakes, those points of light dissipating from her palms... the scenes of the past surfaced in her mind again.

"You occupied this place, manipulated everything, and wantonly trampled on the last traces these heroes left in the world..."

.... 0 0

"They died right before my eyes, yet you say... you are the continuation of their lives??"

The mix of grief and indignation caused lightning to flash around Mei.

Seeing this, the Herrscher of Corruption was not panicked at all.

"Sigh... fine~" She sighed: "It seems no matter how I defend myself, in Mei's heart, I am a villain~"

"Since you want to fight me no matter what, I have no choice but to satisfy your expectations."

"After all... the thing I least want to do is let others down~"

Seeing this, countless people became excited.

Kiana even muttered excitedly in a low voice.

"Beat her! Beat this hateful woman down for me!!"

The anger that had been suppressed in Kiana's heart was finally about to be released.

"If I could, I wouldn't want to fight Mei at all, this battle is meaningless, and you and I should definitely not be enemies~"

"But I also know very well that Mei is just such a girl who likes to get to the bottom of things~"

"So, I am also very happy to show you the power of 【Corruption】... I will hand over my trump cards to Mei one by one."

"And then prove—what you see is the unreserved... real me~"

It must be said, the Herrscher of Corruption was really quite good at bewitching people.

She had just failed to defend her "crimes."

Yet the next moment, these words of hers made the players have a feeling—【Does this Herrscher really want to be friends with Mei?】

Because she used Elysia's appearance?

Because she used Elysia's tone?

That's why it seemed... very sincere?

Moreover, Mei had actually been defeated by the Herrscher of Corruption once before.

But... why didn't she kill Mei?

Various doubts, plus the words the Herrscher of Corruption just said, made the players subconsciously start to think about the possibility of the 【Herrscher of Corruption】 being redeemed.

However, when the battle in the game began...

That scene once again successfully stimulated countless players!

The Herrscher of Corruption did not fight Mei directly.

Instead, she summoned Mobius's Herrscher form...

【Damn!! Another act of killing the heart and soul ahhh...】

【Hahahaha... Herrscher of Corruption, you successfully proved yourself... worth killing!!】
