Arknights is too real, right?

"Sister, you are finally here."

Although she wasn't calling him, Xia Feng immediately felt a creepy feeling when she heard this sound.

This little girl is not Ifrit. According to Helmer, she is a replica, an "artificial human" imitated by Ifrit.

A long time ago, Xia Feng, who had not yet left Lain's life, made a guess. If Ifrit had no memory of her childhood, then she was an artificial human.

Now it seems that the answer is already there.

Ifrit is not an artificial person, she is just a little Sakaz girl who was taken into custody. During various experiments, her genetic structure was changed, causing her horns to degenerate, and she became the current experimental subject.

What appears in front of us now is the true artificial human.

【Black Flame Plan】

Another dark experiment after the failure of the Balrog Plan.

"Fire" refers to the Fire Demon, and "black" undoubtedly refers to the black and white twins.

Among the characteristics of the black and white twins, black power represents destructive power and is controllable at the same time, while white power is passive healing power in an uncontrollable form.

Even as the orthodox successor, he could not actively control the white power, and it was even less possible for the artificial man created by Rhine Life through genetic replication, so the white part was discarded.

All they need is "black".

However, as Yuan Shan once said, the black and white twins are the most powerful and the most fragile among the four ancient stones.

Only by relying on each other can the birds cross the sea.

Complementing each other, black and white twins, is the eternal principle.

Hearing this call, Ifrit opened her eyes and raised her head with her weak body.

"you"

"I am No. 021, your sister."

"younger sister."

It is impossible for Ifrit's IQ to smooth out the complicated relationships, and the current situation is not the time to seek relatives.

Xia Feng knew very well what No. 021 was going to do.

She wants to kill Ifrit with her own hands, and then transfer the power into her own body before the Fire Demon Stone disappears, becoming the new successor.

Hummer's voice came urgently from the communicator.

"Xia Feng, Xia Feng, take Ifrit away, don't worry about me anymore, leave here, leave Colombia, and never come back!"

Ifrit was stunned for a moment and murmured.

"Hemer. Where are you, Hemer?"

"Ifrit, get out of here quickly, you will die!"

"Hermer."

Xia Feng couldn't stand this situation, so he turned off the communicator and winked at the wolf behind him.

"Big Wolf, take Ifrit to Turtle."

"how about you?"

"I'm going to kill that No. 021."

"But...that little girl is"

"Nothing to worry about."

He knew what Lang Da wanted to say, but he had to stay rational at this moment because he was the leader.

This little girl looks very similar to Ifrit. It can be said that she is a derivative of Ifrit. It is not unreasonable to call her sister.

However, the body was created and the mind was given. Even the so-called soul does not exist.

In this case, Xia Feng only needs to know one thing.

No matter how similar or related she is, she is not Ifrit after all.

Even if he is deceiving himself, he must regard this No. 021 as a flesh-and-blood robot. No, she is a robot.

When Xia Feng mentioned the Shenyue Sword, there was no hesitation in Xia Feng's eyes. He stared at No. 021 in a white dress.

"do not blame me."

No. 021 tilted his head slightly.

"You are No. 020. What I am looking for is not you, but my sister, No. 019."

"What the hell 020, my name is Xia Feng."

"Pass!"

The red flame grew in 021's palm, and the already hot air became even more unbearable.

Obviously, as a replica of Ifrit, 021 possesses Origin Stone skills that are infinitely close to the power of the Balrog.

Xia Feng had to take action without hesitation. This was his mission.

The black power was drawn out to the maximum extent, the flames in his left eye burned blazingly, Xia Feng clenched the Shenyue Sword and roared.

"ah!"

However, just as he took half a step, his whole person suddenly froze.

An extremely familiar aura locked him tightly, and he could easily discern a gaze that seemed to be staring straight into his soul.

Xia Feng's eyes widened and he quickly followed the source of the aura.

After passing through the vast field of Origin Stone Beasts, at the main entrance of Base 4, a thin young man looked at him expressionlessly from afar.

Seeing this young man's appearance, to be honest, Xia Feng almost vomited.

"Nima."

This boy was about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was wearing a white experimental suit. His hair was gray. As for the reason for the gray, Xia Feng knew very well.

Yes, this boy had the same facial features as him. From a distance, Xia Feng seemed to see himself in high school.

Different from No. 021, who imitated Enma, this boy's number at this time was No. 022. Judging from the hair color, the so-called triggering cracking has begun.

According to the characteristics of black and white twins, that is to say, no matter what, 022 can only live for a maximum of 30 days, and according to the current situation, 022 is undoubtedly not just triggered.

022 may have reached the end of its operating cycle, or even the last day.

Xia Feng already roughly knew from Hemo's explanation that the power of the replica was not the real ancient stone, but a similar energy conversion.

Absorb the source stone material into the physical body, and convert the source stone energy into an energy form similar to black power through the same genes and cell structure, thereby exerting a power similar to black and white twins. To put it bluntly, this is still a source stone skill.

He didn't know how powerful this imitation could be, but for now, Rheinland Life was obviously very confident.

Xia Feng probably figured it out, this plan should be like this.

He used the Origin Stone Beast to make Ifrit unable to resist "self-destruction", and then sent No. 021 to devour her who was too weak to resist.

On the other side, use No. 022 to hold him back. If the Balrog's power is successfully inherited, he will have the bargaining chip to defeat them completely. Then, let No. 022 devour his black and white twins.

By then, both the Balrog and the Black and White Twins have become the weapons of Rhine Life, and there will be no suspense about the aftermath of this war.

Xia Feng hesitated. He didn't know how strong the boy who copied the black and white twins was.

If he rushes over and fights 021, 022 may scatter his own formation. Conservative estimates suggest that if that kid had about 70% of his current strength, it would be difficult for Red Sword and the others to resist.

Xia Feng hesitated, but No. 021 didn't need to think.

"Pass!"

The flames in his palms surged and became even hotter.

At this time, Ifrit, who had just been helped up by the wolf, lowered his head and shouted.

"You get out of here."

Xia Feng turned around.

"What are you talking about, you stinky girl?"

"I'm telling you all to leave, get out, get away. You are not needed here. I am enough. I can save Hemo by myself."

Xia Feng's eyes reflected Ifrit's shoulders shaking due to weakness.

"This provoking method is too exaggerated. You are too weak now. You can't beat your sister."

Ifrit raised her head and gritted her teeth.

"It doesn't matter. I, Lady Ifrit, am not afraid of fire."
