Chapter 386
Even though Mu Ling, who was always loyal, had a tiny bit of discontent towards the Savior at this moment.
She had never worn clothes with such little fabric before.
"I won\'t show this kind of demeanor in front of men... It\'s a bit too embarrassing."
Mu Ling sighed, feeling very troubled.
Because, if the Savior really asked her to wear this outfit and fight, she wouldn\'t be able to refuse at all.
But if she really had to wear this outfit in front of a group of unfamiliar men, fighting and speaking in all seriousness, Mu Ling felt like she would be too embarrassed to show her face to anyone.
"Maryse, I kinda envy you..."
Mu Ling looked at Maryse, who was silent by her side, with a face full of envy.If she wore the sturdy outfit that Maryse had on, she wouldn\'t be afraid to appear in front of people at all.
Because of this outfit on the half-elf girl, it was even more modest than regular swimsuits.
She only revealed her arms and legs, while the rest of her body was completely covered, making it almost the complete opposite of her own attire.
"Do you envy me?"
Maryse stood there, dumbfounded, unable to decide whether to cry or laugh. "Do you envy me?" she thought, finding the situation quite perplexing.
Curse it!
"You filthy cow," she exclaimed, exasperated. "Oh, how you infuriate me! Do you even have a clue?"
Meanwhile, Bai Yan was also using his phone to "live stream" and witness the potential outcome of the Water World for the two of them.
He noticed at first glance that the outfits of the two individuals in the Water World were different, and the difference was very apparent.
Maryse went strolling down the street in her outfit, feeling absolutely confident. Although it didn\'t necessarily attract much attention, if someone plain-looking were to wear the same outfit, it would likely go unnoticed.
But Mu Ling\'s "Water World" potential... it was fine to use it to load up when fighting monsters, but when it came to dealing with people, she decided against it.
Perhaps Mu Ling would be so ashamed that she would escape from the reality dimension overnight.
"In the Water World, Mu Ling, a young girl, lived in Tatsumi City, which was a deserted place. She spent her days on the partially submerged rooftops of tall buildings, as described in the possibilities she read about in Water World."
"She could only see her own reflection and the vast blue sea every day. In the destroyed city, there was no one to accompany her, not even the hostile ocean creatures had come."
"Once upon a time, a civilization existed but it was destroyed. She no longer needed to fight and lost her sense of purpose in life. So she lived alone, feeling lonely... Until one day, she quietly chose to venture towards the depths of the ocean."
As he read the descriptions of possibilities, he felt a sense of sadness.
Bai Yan fell silent for a moment. Indeed, if he were to live in such a state, it wouldn\'t matter if he dressed a little more revealing.
"But you don\'t wish to reveal such a posture in front of strangers, do you? Don\'t worry, Mu Ling, I will not let you bear this possibility casually."
Then, came the effects of "Water World - Crime-Hunter Nightsaber" and "Water World - Psychic Dancer."
"The effect of Water World\'s crime-hunter, Nightsaber, was to replace the original abilities with the "Solitary Ripple" ability set. The new Nightsaber could unleash the power of water from her weapon, such as waves, surges, and even destructive tsunamis that could destroy cities."
Now, Mu Ling has become powerful enough to create quite significant waves. If she were to fully embrace Apocalypse, she could even effortlessly create giant tsunamis that are several hundred meters tall.
Under thorough preparation, she can even single-handedly destroy an entire city, belonging to the same category as the Imperial Guards\' "Death" - an extraordinary being with the ability to cause "large-scale attacks."
However, the shortcomings are also quite obvious. The ability is limited and the attack speed is sluggish, making it ineffective in one-on-one battles against opponents of the same level.
Bai Yan suddenly sighed and murmured to himself, "Just five more possibilities... Mu Ling, oh Mu Ling, it\'s truly difficult to help you embrace Apocalypse..."
The future is promising! The future is promising... This is the only way to comfort oneself.
The effect of "Water World - Psychic Dancer" is healing and supportive. She can use water for healing and assistance.
As long as she touches the water, it turns into "Water of Memory". Within the memories lies power. Some water can restore vitality, some water can restore mental strength, and some water can fill one with inspiration.
In the Water World timeline, Maryse, unlike Mu Ling, had a completely different encounter.
Maryse didn\'t live alone, instead, she lived with many survivors in the other half of Tatsumi City, for many years.
Bai Yan suddenly understood from the description that Tatsumi City was actually divided in half by the sea.
But the two parts of Tatsumi City were not supposed to be far apart.
"In other words... Mu Ling..."
In Water World, Mu Ling had no idea until her death that the survivors of Tatsumi City could be found just a few days\' swim away in a certain direction.
"Oh no," he sighed.
Regarding the descriptions of fairy tale worlds, Water World, and other worlds, are they accounts of events that have already happened, events that are yet to happen, or just possibilities?
Bai Yan actually didn\'t know either.
Even if they knew, it seemed that nothing could be changed, and they were unsure of how to change it.
The only thing he could do now was to hold onto this timeline, staying by the side of his companions, and fighting together.
Bai Yan carefully put away his phone and took a deep breath.
"The next event is the Crown Ceremony of Ms. Amy."
The time had finally come.
On this day, a certain ceremony was held, and if Amy could make the right choice, she would be successfully promoted to become a Crown.
"Come on, Amy! Work hard and succeed!"
--
Night Union.
The Ring City.
In the middle of the secret base, Amy\'s room.
"Oh, wise prophet!"
Zero, the miraculous android, walked in from the door and looked eagerly at her identical creator, Ms. Amy, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
Amy sat in the wheelchair and slowly turned around, asking, "Zero, what\'s wrong? Has Number Thirteen escaped again?"
After Amy had forcefully called Number Thirteen back the last time, it took less than a day for him to have the desire to leave again. However, Amy, who had been watching him closely, noticed his attempt.
Because Number Thirteen continued to repeat his behavior without learning any lessons, Zero made a suggestion to "shut her down" for a while. However, Amy vetoed the idea.
In the end, they simply put Number Thirteen in temporary confinement.
Amy could tell that Number Thirteen was extremely unhappy. He silently protested by refusing to communicate. However, Amy also noticed that the child would occasionally secretly connect to the internet and play games while being confined.
Zero shook his head and said, "No, it\'s something else entirely. Lately, it seems like someone has noticed the traces of our existence..."
After a moment of silence, Amy replied, "The fact that this base, built amidst the cracks of the Layered District, would eventually be discovered was inevitable. It\'s just that the timing shouldn\'t be now."
The timing of her ideal base being discovered was actually waiting for the day when the members of Babel Tower, under Noah\'s guidance, became strong enough.
Amy, unlike the others, actually dared to think in a more forward-looking direction.
In her heart, she always believed that since Babel Tower was meant to save the world, it would eventually nurture at least a few near-god-level superbeings.
When that time came, even if the secret of the underground base was discovered, the Rock Morgan group couldn\'t harm them in the slightest.
Of course, Amy could never have imagined that Babel Tower possessed the power to cultivate deities.
She continued to ask, "Are the people investigating us the agents of the group?"
Maintainer.
They were a group of commercial agents working for the Rock Morgan group, supposedly in the name of maintaining order. But in reality, they were a bunch of unruly fellows who would do anything.
Without any moral boundaries.
They once, without hesitation, used large-scale destructive weapons to protect the major shareholder of the Rock Morgan group, killing anyone they saw on a certain street, almost wiping out half of the civilian population in the neighborhood.
These fellows were bloodthirsty and ruthless. If they were to discover the secret of the base, it would surely cause a great uproar.
"What should we do, Master Prophet?" Zero asked.
Amy asked, "How far have they investigated?"
"It\'s actually like this, recently we had some development activities in the base, which affected some underground water channels, and then a urban legend appeared in the Ring City... Those Maintainers may be too vigilant, or maybe someone is helping them, these guys actually followed these little clues and started to search in the underground water channels."
Amy knew very well that the mezzanine base, situated between two levels, was actually interconnected with the underground water channel system.
If the Maintainer agents were certain that there was a problem underground, they would eventually find their way here.
She took a deep breath and earnestly said,
"Hmm, we need to get rid of these spies, so that we can delay being discovered."
Amy gazed at the girl in front of her, who looked exactly like herself. Finally, she made up her mind, allowing the Omnic to have a taste of what it\'s like to harm humans.
She created the Omnics, in order to help Babel Tower, and to save the world.
If they could only be assigned to logistical tasks, it would be putting the cart before the horse.
"Zero, the task is now in your hands," said the commander.
