"Bang... Bang bang..."

As the flames grew, more and more stones fell from the ceiling, as if they were about to collapse, causing the entire control room to crumble and cause explosions.

Both Luo Zhen and Matthew looked at the completely closed door in front of them in a daze, and fell silent.

Luo really understands.

Neither he nor Matthew could leave here.

The door of the control room is specially made, and the measures for magic are also very good, even the highest magician cannot break it by brute force, even if it is by physical means, if you want to break this door that is stronger than steel, you don't know how much, the difficulty is conceivable.

Unless you can summon a superior demon, it's worth a try.

Otherwise, with the current Luo Zhen's words, he would not be able to escape from here at all.

And if you can't escape here, there is no need to talk about the end.

Not only will Matthew not be saved, but even Luo Zhen himself will be devoured by the flames and lose this hard-won life.

That's how it is now.

For a while, Luo Zhen didn't know what to react to.

As for Matthew, his voice rang out slightly.

"I'm sorry... Predecessor... It's all because of me..."

The fragile voice, which seemed to disappear at any moment, and the guilt contained in the voice, made people feel distressed.

However, for some reason, hearing this voice, Luo Zhen felt calm.

It's clear that they are about to die, but their mood is incredibly calm.

And the impression is even more crisp.

"Well, there's no way around it."

Luo Zhen's voice returned to its previous casualness, and he smiled as if relaxed.

This made all the thousand words in Matthew's heart dissipate, turning into a weak but unusually beautiful smile.

"Senior... Sure enough, it's still a senior..."

Matthew was left with this mood left.

The flames grew again, engulfing both Rozhen and Matthew's paths.

Luo Zhen hugged Matthew and sat in front of the blocked gate, looking at the sea of fire in front of him.

"Senior..."

I don't know how long it took, but Matthew's weak voice rang out again.

"I remember when we first met... Is it? ”

This sentence made Luo Zhen's memories immediately pulled to the past.

That was two years ago.

At that time, Rogen had been in the Chaldees for a year.

As the existence with the best qualifications of the master in the current record, although Luo Zhen was welcomed by many people when he came to Chaldea, but in that year, Luo Zhen's various non-cooperation with Chaldea has gradually worn out Chaldean's patience, so that his interpersonal relationship in Chaldea fell to the lowest point.

To put it bluntly, except for Roman, Luo Zhen at that time couldn't see anyone else approaching at all.

This was something that Luo Zhen couldn't ask for at that time.

"Instead of wasting time with these guys who don't know what inhuman magic experiments are going on behind the scenes, I might as well play a game."

Luo Zhen sincerely held these thoughts, and at the same time held the resistance to Chaldea and lived a life alone.

Sometimes it's doing magic in places that others don't know.

Sometimes I'm playing a game alone in my room.

Except for Roman coming in person, asking Luo Zhen to go out and cooperating with some inspections, Luo Zhen never stepped out of the door.

This was the life of Rojin in Chaldea two years ago.

A life of utter loneliness.

Until one day...

"Her name is Matthew Gileadlet, and she will live in the Chaldees like you in the future, so you must get along well."

Roman suddenly came to him with a girl of the same age as Luo Zhen, and introduced the girl standing beside him to Luo Zhen.

Luo Zhen still remembers Matthew at that time.

Shoulder-length short hair that is no different from today.

A delicate face that is no different from today.

A wonderful atmosphere that is no different from today.

An intellectual appearance that is no different from today.

The only difference is the slightly immature appearance, and the calm and abnormal look that emerges in a pair of pure eyes.

Luo Zhen knew that kind of look.

It was exactly the same look in my eyes when I was two years old, before I got a miracle.

So, Luo Zhen understood.

The girl in front of her is the same as her past self.

Both men had once succumbed to their fate and accepted it.

Therefore, even at that time, Luo Zhen didn't know what had happened to Matthew, but Luo Zhen knew that the girl in front of him was walking the path she had walked, and she didn't treat cruelty as cruelty.

At the moment when he understood this, Luo Zhen could no longer remain alone by his side.

Just like the original acceptance of Roman, Luo Zhen, who has always rejected others, simply accepted the girl in front of him.

At the same time, Matthew also accepted the teenager in front of him.

Just because, at that time, Luo Zhen said a word to Matthew.

"In that case, I'm your senior."

This sentence alone also pried open Matthew's heart.

This is the scene when the boy and girl meet for the first time.

"So far... I haven't forgotten the words of my predecessors..."

In the midst of the fire, only Matthew's weak but serene voice, as if it had some warmth, came clearly into Rogen's ears.

"For me at the time... Predecessor... It's really dazzling..."

People are like that, right?

For people who are the same as themselves, but have done what they haven't done, people will have a kind of longing.

Luo Zhen is such a character in Matthew's heart.

The past of the two is similar, and they are both so cruel in the eyes of others.

However, Luo Zhen got a miracle and got rid of this fate.

Therefore, as a young girl who has not yet received a miracle, Matthew feels that this "senior" is very dazzling, and that is also a matter of course.

That's why Matthew can tell anyone from the heart.

"To be able to meet seniors... It's really good..."

The girl's frank confession made De Luo Zhen's heart extremely complicated.

If you say it, it's like this.

"I'm just luckier than you."

It's a fact.

Luo Zhen is just better luck than Ma Xiu.

Even if a miracle happened, it was not something that Luo Zhen had won for himself, but a gift that appeared on him out of thin air.

If it's not good luck, what is?

But...

"Thanks to that, I was able to meet Matthew."

Other words...

"I'm so good to have met you."

Luo Zhen's words with a slight chuckle made Matthew completely relax his mind.

"Senior..."

Matthew involuntarily used the last of his strength to hold Luo Zhen's hand.

Luo Zhen immediately shook it back, as if he was holding it tightly in his hand, and kept exerting force.

The fire engulfed the entire control room in this case.

However, at that moment, the mechanical system sound also sounded.

"The system experiment has been detected and the manual operation has stopped, please resume the operation within three seconds."

“3…”

“2…”

“1…”

"There is no recovery of the operation, and the switch will be made from manual to automatic operation."

"The experiment continues, and the search for the Master begins."

"The Master in the Basket has been detected to be in an abnormal state, and the only Master List is Competency No. 1, and Competency No. 1 is set as the main subject of the experiment."

"Anti-summoning system, activate."

"Reiko transfer, begin."
