Chapter 149 Solution
"……Mother?"
Looking at the girl's sleepy eyes, Chen Xiao'er was stunned for a moment, then she lowered her eyebrows and tears suddenly dripped from the corners of her gentle eyes.
She smiled.
The surging anger and sadness were greatly comforted when they saw the surviving children, and then quickly subsided.
She did not deny or reject the child's subconscious murmur.
Chen Xiao'e lifted the girl's back, wrapping her arms around her neck and shoulders. She lowered her head and whispered in her ear, "It's okay. I'll take you out first."
“…Where are we going?”
Yu raised her face, and the light in front of her eyes was as warm as the sun, but it did not burn her eyes that were accustomed to darkness.
She actually knew that this person must not be her mother.
My mother isn't that young; her face is covered in wrinkles. She doesn't cry or smile like this. She saves energy by staying still, not laughing, and not crying when nothing is happening.
But this person's embrace was so warm...she remembered.
This sister seems to be the one who gave me the sweet balls.
"sister,"
Yu subconsciously wanted to eat another sweet ball, but her brother's face suddenly flashed through her mind.
[My brother can never eat sweet balls again].
“…Ah, wuwu.”
The girl's face wrinkled and tears fell.
Chen Xiao'er patted her on the back quickly, feeling distressed but not daring to advise her casually: This child has been in the pile of corpses for so long, God knows where her parents are.
What should I... do?
Yu had a lot to say, but too many words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.
The gentle sister before her was unlike anyone she had ever met. The girl couldn't describe her subtle temperament, but she keenly sensed a strong sense of self-confidence.
[If it's this sister, she should be able to help me get revenge, right?]
Adults always have a special aura in the eyes of children, as if they can do anything. And this sister is really shining.
"Sister, sister," she stammered, trying to explain what had happened. Everyone was killed by the devil. I hope sister can kill that devil.
What does the devil look like?
She wanted to find the right adjective, but the faces of her parents, brother, and tribesmen kept appearing in her mind, evaporating her tiny memory.
Hate, hate it so much, I am so - miserable!
The deep purple light burned like a flame, spreading from the valley to the plain.
The devil grinned fiercely in the flames, sometimes engulfing countless humans with its rising flames, and sometimes re-condensing into a gorgeous yet terrifying human form amidst the wailing.
Hahahaha.
The golden hair flew behind the devil, and his green eyes were more ferocious than any beast.
No, no, no, I have to tell my sister how the devil will attack, so, so it will turn into a ball of light, and then -
"Ah, ah ah... help, help me, help me!" Yu was instantly breathless. The child's brain mixed with the temporarily solidified alien tissue, making her thoughts a mess.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't worry!" Chen Xiao'er quickly picked up the child, turned her head up and her feet down, and patted her back quickly.
Yu took a few deep breaths, grabbed her sister's collar and shouted, "It's the devil, the devil is right here! The devil is very dangerous, it will set fire to this place!!"
[“It will turn into a ball of purple fire and burn around!!”]
Chen Xiao'er bit her lip, resisting the urge to cry. "Poor child, she must have seen so many terrible things. This is a food processing factory, and there might really be an incinerator there."
Seeing her sister's expression, Jade subconsciously knew that she hadn't said enough.
In the eyes of careful children, the way adults show that they "understand" and the way they "really understand" are different.
Boom!
Along with the surge of emotions, a powerful force emerged from the bottom of my heart.
Even though Yu didn't know what a core was, she immediately noticed that there was a floating, burning stone in her chest.
Strands of golden lines were wrapped around the stone, and an unquestionable command exploded in her mind.
[Kill her!] Chen Xiao'er was the first to break the rules! She was the first to break the rules!
It's gone, it's all gone. I set up the chessboard and placed the pieces, but she took the initiative just as I was about to place the most crucial piece! No—
The will of the master came crashing down like a torrent of wind and rain, enough to crush the tiny consciousness of the newborn.
But I don't want to hurt my sister.
Kill her!
The golden threads penetrated into her veins and marrow fluid one by one, manipulating her to raise her hand.
You can't fail at such a close distance!
Snap!
"Zero?!" Chen Xiao'er looked up in disbelief. Zero had struck the girl's neck hard with a knife-like blow! The child didn't even make a sound, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
【Milo: Say it and read it immediately according to my words.】
[Milo: The child needs to rest now. I used my cleverness, so don't worry.]
Ling's eyes flickered, and then he returned to his usual calm voice. He looked into Xiao'e's eyes and said seriously, "The child needs to rest now. I used clever force, don't worry."
If it's just a matter of strength, then there's no need to worry?! There's definitely going to be problems with a knock like that!
Chen Xiao'er hurriedly flipped the girl's hair and found... she seemed fine. There wasn't even a red mark on the back of her neck. She leaned over to listen to her nose and chest. Her breathing and heartbeat were steady. It was more like she was taking a nap after drinking milk than fainting.
Zero looked at her anxious expression and his mood gradually calmed down.
After all, it is a high-level anomaly, and using high-voltage current will not cause fatal damage.
The current situation is the best one expected. According to the expert group's calculations, the anomaly will most likely instinctively fight back after being attacked.
The reason he fainted completely was probably due to the effect of [Reset]. In Chen Xiao'er's opinion, a child who was hit hard on the neck couldn't fight back.
Neither the expert group nor Zero knew about the classic scene in Blue Star movies where a knife-hand gesture equals fainting, but they were also happy with the result.
Chen Xiao'er covered the girl with clothes, feeling a little worried:
The physical constitution of the Red Star people is indeed much better than that of the Blue Star people. Being knocked unconscious will only hurt for a moment. If this child is awake, he will definitely ask where his mother is... and there are corpses everywhere, so it's better to faint.
It seems that Zero's behavior is not wrong. Maybe the doctor would also recommend this.
Chen Xiao'er sighed, picked up Yu and walked out. "Let's go first. There's evidence everywhere. We can just call the police."
"Okay." Zero glanced at the map on his iris. The Knights and the abnormal assistants had broken through the second line of defense and successfully entered the inner area.
The Overlord is already at the end of its strength. Once Xiao'e gets the last mark that symbolizes protection, she can put on the crown and easily wipe it out.
[Expert Team: 0. Keep an eye on Chen Xiao'er's movements and persuade her to return her power. She will likely manifest the power in a crown-like form.]
[Expert Group: Act in the order of ABCD first. If persuasion fails, initiate the backup plan.]
“…”
[0: Yes.]
Boom boom.
What's that sound? Zero immediately turned his neck.
Large clumps of red and black mud broke through the doors and windows and poured into the basement built by Chen Xiao'er.
Woo woo woo~
They dragged along the half-dead anomalies along with them. The fog could not get close and simply evaporated. On the surface of each drop of boiling water, there was a distorted human face screaming loudly.
[Expert Team: Retreat immediately! Protect Chen Xiao'er. These things are]

Zero's figure turned into a ray of light, and in the next second he rushed forward and hugged the girl's waist.
"Huh?" Why did you pick me up?
Chen Xiao'er's waist trembled, and she almost shook the child off her arms, and quickly tightened her hands.
She looked back through her senior's shoulder, and her hair stood on end: a group of people in security uniforms rushed in with electric batons, and they had guns on their waists!
The security guards' clothes were as red as blood. Seeing their blood-red uniforms and pitch-black pants, Chen Xiao'er suddenly felt a chill: they wore clothes of this color just to cover up the blood stains. God knows how many people they have killed!
"Xiao'er, don't be afraid." Ling's voice was like a tranquil spring. "These people can't catch up to me, even if you worry, it's no use." ["These anomalies aren't fast enough. The energy invested by the Overlord is wasted."]
Zero held her and ran quickly, overcoming one obstacle after another, and jumped onto the windowsill by stepping on a table.
"roar--"
The pursuers roared like wild beasts, their eyes were bloodshot, and their pupils looked like long strips standing upright in the dim light.
Chen Xiao'er didn't dare to look anymore. She hugged the little girl tightly in her arms and rose and fell with Ling's jumping.
Whoosh.
The evening breeze blew against her face, and she looked back in disbelief—it turned out that the end of the passage was not the basement, but the tower behind it!!!
Zero was holding them and hanging on a high building. The windowsill under his feet was only half the width of his index finger. He had to rely on his left hand to hold on to the protruding railing to barely maintain his balance.
Chen Xiao'e glanced down at the abyss-like wall, feeling dizzy from head to toe. Luckily, one couldn't see very far in the dark, or else that single glimpse would have been enough to scare her to death.
"Click, click, click." Her teeth chattered in the wind, her arms still tightly holding Yu.
Feeling Xiao'e's intense fear, Ling calmly lowered his head, his silver-white hair blocking her sight like a curtain.
"Believe me."
This sentence is like a spell.
Chen Xiao'e's eyes were filled with an icy blue. She forgot the shouts and the rustling of the wind, and with the next leap, she soared into the sky.
On the translucent screen, the apostle's nimble figure cut through the darkness. The girl in her arms looked like an ordinary person, yet she was enveloped in a brilliant light, even the dust she stirred up resembled pale stars surrounding the moon.
…
"Oh."
Sinaya stood in a large pool of sticky debris, leisurely lifting her long hair. "Hey, human, hurry up over there~"
"..." Are you really that afraid of Chen? Where's your devilish dignity? You killed hundreds of anomalies and didn't even dare to come close.
No one wanted to pay attention to her, and Lin Lang even rolled his eyes.
Finally, Xing Shuyao said helplessly: "Wait a minute, there are two more."
"Aba, aba aba."
Two "Chen Xiao'er" with crooked mouths, slanted eyes and drooling came out from the corner, walking with their feet turned inward and could not run fast at all.
The rules of the Overlord are incomplete, and what it manifests depends entirely on the concepts deep in the hearts of the fearful.
When an individual's fear of something is too singular, multiple anomalies manifest, each distorted to some degree in order to create greater fear from all angles.
"Hey." Lin Lang took out a rope and tied it around Chen Xiaomie on the left, and Zheng Xiuli tied it around the right.
The two people exerted force at the same time and threw the two Chen Xiao'er to the side, where they piled up with dozens of "Chen Xiao'er" of various shapes.
What kind of strange perception did this devil have of Chen that could have thought of him this way? But it was also okay this way, at least the ability to [Reset to Zero] wasn't manifested at all.
Xing Shuyao thought secretly: The devil is not afraid of returning to zero, what is it afraid of?
