Roland was in confusion.

The brain, which has been repeatedly washed by all kinds of emotions, is completely clueless.

Remorse.

Anxiety.

Fear.

Contradiction.

Confused.

The intertwined emotions eventually condensed into a question.

（...... What the hell is going on?)

The only thing that can come to mind for a moment is this sentence.

Mikana.

In the past, Roland was kindly taken in by Emir's young mother, who took care of him and took the trouble to preach to him.

Incomparably devout believers.

and the death throes of the Church.

Roland saw her die in the battle of Li Lin to annihilate Emir, and in the container of the church's strategic attack technique in order to seize the consciousness capacity of believers, she and her family were as if they were asleep** Maybe they are still alive, but a blank spirit is equivalent to declaring a spiritual death. Eventually, along with the whole of Emir, he was drowned under Li Lin's third onslaught ().

Although Roland didn't witness the last part of the project, Mikana had no chance of escaping under the rainbow light where everyone had lost their human form and turned into amniotic fluid-like objects.

So......

What is it that is now attacking the crew in droves inside the "Endeavour"?

What are these things that look exactly like Mikana?

"Roland, what the hell is this......"

"I don't know, what the hell is this!!"

In response to Valrhona's question, Roland could only scream in response.

Why is the dead Mikana here, and why are they killing people in droves on the Endeavour?

"Roland!"

Why?

"Calm down!

A calm, majestic voice pulled Roland back into view, and Valrhona's determined face appeared in her refocused pupils.

"Calm down. Those things can't be human. It may be made from a human base like the Chimera, but it can never be called human. ”

“...... I know. ”

Maybe that's the only truth.

But

"I'm afraid that the enemy has deliberately shaped those things into that shape for a certain purpose, and if even you are shaken, this battle will really be lost. ”

Not afraid.

One of the enemy's goals is to use Mikana to shake himself.

The "Endeavour", which has lost its core, is nothing more than a rabble, and even without the missiles outside, it can kill the entire crew with those biological weapons in the shape of Mikana. However, in reality, it could not wait for that time, as long as more than half of the hull's cabins were invaded, or the bridge and hangar were invaded, it could be regarded as a failure in general.

Judging from the input cost and exchange ratio, it is indeed a very cost-effective tactic, and it is also obvious that it shows a very familiar combat style.

Li Lin personally commanded

For a moment, Roland almost believed the hypothesis.

If that guy who prioritizes efficiency and results really wants to kill someone, would he use such a tactic of beating around the bush and deliberately taking pleasure in torturing others? If Li Lin really did it, I am afraid that the target would have evaporated from the world before he even had time to perceive the fear and pain.

Therefore, this time it is not really an action with the goal of efficiency like Li Lin, but just disguised as that and mixed with personal bad taste.

"Imitating that guy's behavior and then adding your own preferences ...... the 'Seven Deadly Sins'?"

"Probably not wrong. ”

The Seven Deadly Sins.

Li Lin's doppelganger, the strongest shadow guard, has supernormal strength and malicious existence.

Of the seven deadly sins that remain, there are two who possess similar abilities.

Gulatoni, a "gluttony" that can multiply infinitely and fuse and prey on other creatures;

Sloth, who is good at making others have nightmares and kills people in his dreams;

The hobbies and paranoia of the two of them are just right in the things that have the appearance of Mikana in the ship, and if they work together, the situation in front of them will make sense.

But this raises another question.

"Do you want to experience a living nightmare...... It's a lot like what that bald bastard would do, but how the hell do they know they can make a shock to you with that girl's appearance?"

Valrhona tried not to change her voice, but Roland could still distinguish the fierce resistance in her words and the unusually cold heaviness of her words.

Sloss's ability to induce nightmares is somewhat similar to Jerrus's ability to "read minds", both of which use brain quantum waves to parse the human brain's thoughts and memories, and then use them. But Gelles only interprets directly, and Slos not only analyzes, but also distinguishes and distinguishes which parts can be combined. How does he ensure the level and freshness of the horror in the process?

Knowing that the Seven Deadly Sins are inherently different from humans, how can they understand the human definition of "horror" and ensure the diversity of nightmares?

"I have an assumption about this. Some members of the Seven Deadly Sins often go in and out of human society, and in addition to completing assigned tasks, are they also observing human beings and tracking human thoughts and emotions to ensure that they show the diversity of 'original sin'...... In other words, their human form is actually a model for studying 'original sin' from a human perspective. ”

Roland took a deep breath, and the frightened and inexplicable gazes around him made him feel a little unbearable.

Humans can't actually experience the horror of ants being trampled to death.

With the huge difference between the positions and existence of the two sides, no matter how human beings imagine it, it is only a fantasy based on their own experience, which is far from the real feelings of ants.

In the same way, if we want to show and understand "original sin" more deeply in front of human beings, we must observe it from a human perspective. Therefore, the vast majority of the seven deadly sins can mix with the crowd in the form and posture of human beings, come into contact with human beings, and lure human beings into depravity. Someone like Sloth, who specializes in psychic attacks, draws on the diverse understandings of "terror" in this way, and constantly creates fresh and tender horror nightmares.

The basic information in Li Lin's hand, Sloth's hobby, and Gulatoni's proliferation and regeneration ability were combined, and a biological weapon that imitated Mikana's appearance was born.

"Whether this assumption is true or not, these things in front of us are no match that humans can defeat......"

Valrhona's slightly agitated voice abruptly stopped.

The terrifying silence froze, and the sound of something scraping steel ran down the ceiling overhead into the hangar.

Everyone looked up in amazement.

Between the ceiling above the hangar and the upper deck, there is a space dedicated to the maintenance and management of the steam lines, which is not impossible to accommodate petite humans, but from where it is impossible to break into the hangar.

The maintenance aisle and hangar are completely isolated, and the use of compartment structures to enhance the survivability of the ship was also taken into account in the design, and in order to prevent enemy shells from penetrating all the compartments at once, the walls and floors of some compartments are also made of armor steel. The bulkhead between the service access and the hangar is also designed in this way, with no connected sealed doors, so even if a special tool is used to disassemble it, it will not be possible to open a gap that allows light to pass through it all day.

However, at the moment the heavy armor plate is being scraped by something, knocked, and even tried to tear the whole armor plate.

What will it be?

No need to ask, of course

“......！”

Roland felt his heart tighten for a moment.

The monster that looks exactly like Mikana is right above his head.

Swarms gathered like green worms and ants.

"Are you here......"

Valrhona frowned at the top of her head, and the white figure of the "unicorn" reflected in the corner of her eye.

I'm afraid that Sloth and Gulatoni, based on the battle data recovered earlier, judged that it would be difficult to directly annihilate the "Endeavour", or that it would not be possible to achieve annihilation without affecting friendly forces. So as a matter of course, the target was set on Roland.

If Roland died, it would be no problem to deal with the Endeavour and the rest of the people.

If all the people on board the Endeavour die, there will be no force that can hinder Alfheim's strategic planning in the short term, and there will never be anyone who can say "no" to them until the "new order" is completely established and consolidated. Later, even if a new "savior" emerges, or Roland reorganizes the resistance, all he can set off is "institutionalized strife" to stimulate the economic cycle and the functioning of society.

Achieving either of these two goals would be enough to shatter the hopes of humanity and the world.

This is indeed appropriate, and it is also the response that the "Seven Deadly Sins" should take.
