Chapter 1240

~6 min read 1,073 words

In the brief silence, Lin An suppressed this special sense of familiarity.

"You still haven't answered my question."

"Why don't you do it yourself?"

He could accept Andre's behavioral logic.

Like the Second Will, to ordinary people their crazy actions are precisely this kind of 'person's' sole obsession; to uphold their beliefs, they will do anything.

The reason Andre doesn't act is likely because the North American remnants are too strong.

If that's the case, he must consider the difficulty.

Who can guarantee that Andre isn't saying this on purpose, letting him directly face the remnants? After both sides suffer losses, he could then control Zhang Tie again to kill him?

Seeing Lin An's reaction, after Andre's emotions slowly faded, there was no surprise at all.

Quite normal.

Just as Lin An is constantly wary of him, he naturally wouldn't regard Lin An as an idiot. He knows that without absolute 'evidence,' Lin An could never cooperate with him.

"The answer is simple, Lin An."

"The remnants hidden in the North American war zone may be strong, but they are definitely not your match."

"I know how strong you are; otherwise I couldn't possibly cooperate with you."

"If I pay the price, I can indeed kill those remnants."

"But, I cannot kill."

"Because.... I will die."

Hearing Andre's somewhat strange statement, Lin An blinked slightly, then suddenly realized what Andre was actually saying.

"You want to 'commit suicide' to escape?"

"Exactly."

He nodded slowly.

Andre looked satisfied at Lin An, who had instantly understood, his eyes showing even more appreciation.

I kill them, and the remnants in reality will likewise kill me. No matter how wary they are of my trump card, they will not let me go.

Moreover, if I personally act against the remnants, my trump card will be exposed.

In short, I cannot act.

Therefore, I must eliminate them while avoiding exposing myself, and after returning to reality, evade their scrutiny.

Then the only way is for me to die...

He slowly turned the scepter; beneath the silver crown, Andre showed no emotional fluctuation when speaking of his own death, as if he didn't care at all.

"You really killed me."

My current state can be understood as merely a soul form.

My talent is mind control, able to invade my thoughts into others' minds.

So when Fiona sent you that message, I was already dead...

Cutting off the communication was merely because the system couldn't determine Fiona's status.

His gaze shifted slightly.

After listening, Lin An gave a deep look at Andre before him, and even beneath the mask his expression twitched slightly.

What a ruthless method.

So the Andre I saw earlier was merely a shell; the true Andre had already died physically and directly 'hid' inside Fiona's body?

To evade the remnants' control, and to eliminate this batch of remnants...

He would not hesitate to sacrifice his own death to complete the entire layout.

Is he soft-hearted?

Lin An gave a bitter smile in his heart, never expecting that one day he too would receive such an evaluation.

Exactly, he knows what Andre is saying about him.

Theoretically, the best way to resolve the Alien Species is to directly kill the billion survivors in the capital!

He could have done that long ago!

Especially when he just obtained the Meme doll, theoretically he could strangle the Alien Species in its infancy!

That's why the capital's military could only compromise back then!

However, neither he nor Chu An ever brought up that plan, tacitly agreeing.

The price is too great...

Using a billion survivors as the price to bury the Alien Species, no one can muster such a resolve. Especially after the capital's fall, the attracted corpse tide and mutants will spiral out of control.

Andre can be crazy enough to abandon all of North America, he...

He cannot do it.

"So Fiona didn't die, right?"

"Your current state is more like a single body with two souls?"

"Choosing Fiona as the vessel, you valued her being a ruler in her own right and her decent talent?"

When Andre laid out all his plans, Lin An instantly understood everything that had happened before.

No wonder Andre would represent North America in the battle against Asia.

No wonder Andre would pursue the Soviet Union..

From start to finish, from the moment he entered the confrontation, Andre incorporated all global Awakened Ones into his chessboard, scheming against everyone...

"That's right."

"Fiona's talent is not bad; in North America she counts among the most excellent Awakened Ones."

Her forces are quite clean. After all, with a holy mother leading them, it's hard for her subordinates to mix in with those remnants.

Or rather, those remnants don't think she'll last long...

Seeing Andre casually nod, Lin An didn't say anything more.

Many minor details no longer need explanation.

With their mental abilities, they can naturally tell what's true and false.

So it seems that Fiona's attempt to remind herself of something was actually Andre deliberately exposing a flaw, then after 'suicide' possessing Fiona.

Moreover, he directly lured himself into fiercely killing his true form, creating the illusion before the world that Andre was dead.

And the North American War Zone challenging Asia is even more of a reward Andre gave himself.

The first place spot, given to him.

The points earned by the Awakened Ones of the entire North American War Zone after death are also part of the reward.

Moreover, the Alien Species within the Huaxia Military will also suffer heavy losses under Xiong Hanzi's attack.

Moreover, those Alien Species couldn't even guess what was going on.

Even if investigated later, they would think it was the deceased Andre who did it.

Truly a case of killing six birds with one stone, the strategy is beyond doubt.

Upon reaching this thought, Lin An silently looked at Andre's outstretched right hand, and after a moment of silence, took hold of it.

He had no reason to refuse.

Everything is the optimal solution.

"Happy cooperation."

"Lin An."

"Kill them all for me..."

Smile and morning light.

Beneath the silver crown, the girl's face seemed to be draped with a layer of sacred color.

The next second, a flash of red light suddenly appeared in Fiona's eyes.

The aura that originally belonged to Andre gradually faded.

As if waking from a dream.

Fiona stared blankly at Lin An before her, blinking dazedly.

"Lin An!?"
