Time has stopped.

The movements of Irene and Xiao Hui remained at the moment before shaking hands. The rare expression on Xiao Hui's face was well preserved, and Irene's helpless expression was also frozen.

No, now that body can only be called "Tachigawa Reina". Li Zheng, who unknowingly floated out of the yin and yang fish on Dongfeng Tanihui's chest, had seen Irene's true form.

A faint shadow floated above Rena Tadokawa. It belonged to Irene's soul and where Irene's consciousness was.

Compared with Tatokawa Rena's body, Irene is very thin. After all, she has been in the hospital since she was a child. Material matters determine consciousness. The image reflected in her soul is also a very thin woman.

[This feeling seems familiar.] At this time, Li Zheng suddenly remembered a scene from the past.

That was the feeling after completing the duel with Li Ao, who came through time and occupied the body of the duelist killer on the island of the duelist kingdom. The power of the "fusion" that destroyed the world was still deeply imprinted on Li Ao.

In Zheng’s memory.

This time, although there was no "fusion", the situation just became less dangerous. In fact, the reasons for the two incidents were the same.

[Upgrade patch detected, the system has started downloading, please wait...]

Yes, it's an upgrade patch! In fact, the system had already detected the upgrade patch when Li Zheng met Irene for the first time (please see Chapter 141 for details), and now it may be because Li Zheng defeated Irene, Irene

The "upgrade patches" on your body will be taken away by the system.

Li Zheng held the terminal and wanted to go out to download the upgrade patch. He still had many questions to ask Irene.

Irene no longer looks like a girl. She should be around twenty-five years old, which is the best time for a woman. But for Irene, apart from choosing to become a witch and killing people, she can only act like a witch.

A corpse is usually lying on the bed, unable to see, hear, speak, or move.

Although she was a little thin, Li Zheng could still tell that if she had adequate nutrition, Irene might be as good as those popular movie stars in appearance.

"Well, we really can't leave this time." Irene looked at Li Zheng who was walking towards him, waved to him with some relief, and said to him: "It seems that the thing in your hand is very dangerous."

Want to eat me? Why don't you let it go? There shouldn't be anything worthy of mercy for people like me, right?"

"It's not pity." Li Zheng held the terminal and contacted Zero to ask her to turn off this guy's voice system, otherwise it would be too noisy. After the environment was quiet, Li Zheng continued: "I still have some questions to ask you."

"Oh? It's an honor." Eileen simply sat down, "I know everything, but there is a condition. Can you at least keep me in this state for a while? I haven't been able to move freely with my body for 20 years."

Li Zheng nodded, and then said curiously: "You are quite open-minded. But I am very curious as to why you killed so many ordinary girls to carry out the operation without any pressure. If you are really just like that stupid kid.

People usually just want to see the outside world, so you just need to choose a contractor and see the world from her perspective, right? You have no scruples in using this extremely destructive and very...

An easy way to expose yourself?”

"If you really want to say it, it's my obsession. Of course, you can also say it's because of my greed." Irene spread her hands and said that she had anticipated this problem, and said: "Many people once said that I was

A greedy witch who kills other people's lives to maintain the filthy souls that should not exist in the world. Later, I simply admitted that I was a witch and that I was doing things that were harmful to nature and not tolerated by heaven and earth."

"What you said is really straightforward. Don't you know how to restrain yourself at all?" Li Zheng said helplessly, "Looking at it from this perspective, you are simply inhumane."

"If you lose your humanity, you lose a lot; if you lose your animality, you lose everything." Irene closed her eyes and said calmly: "I never deny that I am a wicked person. If I die, I will definitely be in hell forever, right? But I

Everything I do is just to survive and to take a look at this world that I still like even though it is full of malice towards me."

Li Zheng remained silent.

"I can see that you and I are the same kind of people - maybe the word 'spirit' should be used here? Forget it, it doesn't matter. The only difference is that you are very lucky and have the foundation to be able to do it without hurting the other person.

Possession skills, and..." Irene glanced at Dongfeng Guhui, who maintained a rare smile during the time pause, and continued: "And a person who is willing to let you possess you and is willing to hand over everything in his body.

To your people.”

"..." Li Zheng was silent. Indeed, he was very lucky. If his contractor was not Dongfeng Guhui, who was willing to communicate, obey the teachings, and be willing to be possessed to control everything about his body, but was a person who used himself as a plug-in tool.

, if you think of using it when you are showing off, if you are an arrogant young man who usually gets sidelined and uses Li Zheng's ability to start a harem as a stud, his choice may not be any more humane than Irene.

"Really? But I don't have such good luck. I also wanted to negotiate with them, but the final result was failure." Eileen changed her posture and continued: "If you are not desperate, who would like to be

Being hunted every day as a witch? But my childhood experience tells me that this world cannot tolerate me: When I was five years old, the plane crashed, and it was my mother who used her own

A sudden switch stopped my survival; later, my five senses gradually faded away, until I became a waste that was no different from a corpse; finally I had the ability to get out, and all the dark ability users in Europe wanted to kill me.

I followed quickly. Fortunately, in order to monopolize my power, they did not spread this news to District 11, otherwise I would be dead in this competition."

"Actually, it seems like you won't live much longer now." Li Zheng looked at the terminal that was becoming more and more unbearable and the countless warning sounds coming from the system, and said to Eileen: "Then why did you go to Europe before?

Cup? It’s easier to expose this way, isn’t it?”

"That time I went there because I wanted to die. But those people were driven away by John. Really, don't treat yourself as an adult even though you are only twelve years old..." Irene's expression appeared for the first time.

In the past, Irene had a look of indifference, but now she looked doting. "It was also that time that I realized that I was not alone. After that, I hoped that the organization under my name could go all out to

Do research on prosthetics instead of continuing to hunt people.”

"Then you came to Duel City because of a shortage of funds, right?" Li Zheng frowned, feeling that the situation was not that simple, "Then why did you go on a killing spree? Logically speaking, you let others use the 'Beetle Installer'

Is it okay to win the game? I also know the strength of this deck."

"As for this, I can only say that I'm used to it." Irene finally showed a very apologetic expression. She looked at the body of "Tachigawa Rena" who was standing still in time and said: "I'm used to this way of action.

It was completed before I knew it. I'm very sorry..."

When Li Zheng talked about this, he felt that he had nothing to say. He should be able to answer Xiao Hui's questions from now on. Irene is indeed a villain, and she even admitted that she is a person who does not even give up her humanity in order to survive.

A real witch; but put yourself in her shoes

Next, in the novels that Irene and Li Zheng occasionally read in their previous lives, Long Aotian was the one who would kill everyone after just one look at his woman. If something didn't go his way, he would shout "My fate is up to me" and then kill everyone everywhere.

In comparison, everything Irene did could only be considered mild.

To be fair, if the Q-level dark ability is placed in the "Academy City" of an anime in the previous life, it can easily be rated as LV5, and it can even compete for the top two. If the person who obtains this theory is an ordinary middle school boy or

If you are a cynical person, the consequences can be imagined.

Of course, reality cannot be compared with fiction. This is the 21st century after all, and Irene's behavior can be considered outrageous.

Then, he stretched out the almost uncontrollable terminal in front of Irene and said: "Xiao Hui gave you the right to surrender so that you can freely decide your own destiny for once, so I will give it to you now.

A right: let me tell you clearly that time-stopping will end soon.

You can use your ability to leave, I won't stop you; then, you can also choose to be eaten by this thing now. It may only eat your ability and turn you back to the fragile sick person you were before.

, or it may directly eat your soul and prevent you from even going to hell. Take your pick."

"There is no need to choose at all." Irene smiled slightly and reached out to catch Li Zheng's terminal. Then Li Zheng released all restraints on the terminal, and the terminal sucked in all of Irene in an instant!

[The download of the upgrade component "Greedy" has been completed, and the installation of the upgrade patch has begun. Please wait... the installation is complete! 】

["Greed"?] Li Zheng pinched his chin and thought: [The struggle for the most basic right to survive, is it greed...]
