Sandalphin sank into depression.

To be precise, his stress-like state did not last long.Not long after Lucifer took him back to the residence, he stopped trembling, and actively tried to change the subject, acting as usual.But in the final analysis, this is just an act, and the repeated pressure has made it impossible for Sandalphin to cover up his state well.Lucifer also had no intention of letting Sandalphin hide, he made a serious promise to Sandalphin: "Sondelphine, I will definitely let you see the scenery outside."

Sandalph obviously didn't know how twisted a smile he was trying to pull out.He turned around and said: "I'm fine, Lord Lucifer, don't worry. I'm just a little... shocked, and I'll be fine in a while."

"Don't force it." Lucifer frowned regretfully, he wanted Sandalphin to vent his pain.But seeing his frowning expression, Sandalphin suddenly straightened his body like an electric shock, and then said: "Master Lucifer, I'm fine! Well, I will definitely not let you down. Adjust... Yes, if I still need to adjust, I can always. Whatever I do-"

Lucifer was keenly aware that the current distortion of Sandalphin might not be only due to today's ethical review.But he didn't know where it started, or how serious the condition was at Sandalphin.No, he should know.Originally, he wanted to take Sandalphin to see human society just to smooth out his distortion.But looking at him now, he was wrong.It might even be wrong in some fundamental way.He should rethink how to give Sandalphin a normal life...but he can't figure it out.

"I'm sorry, Sandalphin."

"Why are you apologizing...?"

Sandalphin was terrified.That's a human feeling.Lucifer hugged Sandalphin according to the way he learned to relieve fear: "It's okay, it's okay."

It's a pity that he himself knew that this probably didn't play any key role.Sandalphin's mood gradually stabilized, but became depressed.His ruby ​​pupils looked cloudy from the lack of focus.Lucifer knew that he shouldn't be left alone now, but in terms of time, he couldn't continue to accompany Sandalphin any longer.He thought for a while, and took Sandalphin back to his own room: "Sandalon, how about sleeping for a while? When you wake up, I will give you something to make you happy."

"Yes." Sandalph didn't resist, he lay upright on the bed.Lucifer hesitated for a moment, but still said softly: "Then I'm going out, call me immediately if you need anything, and I'll be right back."

Sandalphin's eyes slowly turned to him.It contained emotions that were too complicated for Lucifer to understand.Sandalphine moved his lips and asked in a voice as weak as a whisper, "Aren't you angry with me?"

"No, Sandalph." Lucifer immediately gave a negative answer, then leaned down and kissed Sandalph's forehead: "You did a good job, why should I be angry with you? ?”

"But I haven't done anything." He murmured back.

Many words flashed through Lucifer's mind in an instant.But he finally chose a sentence full of selfishness and pity: "You don't need to think about anything, it doesn't matter if you can't do it, I'm here, just rely on me."

Is that the right word?Lucifer didn't know.

After a long silence, he heard Sandalphin's farewell: "Yes, have a good trip, Lord Lucifer."

That night Lucifer brought some gifts back to Sandalph as promised.He didn't know what Sandalphin liked, so he bought some of everything.From books to models, and even bought a pair of high heels.Sandalphin did seem to be much more energetic than during the day, he carefully figured out the effect of everything, and tried them all.Lucifer was very happy that his attention could be diverted.He watched Sandalphin smile again—or at least put on a more natural smile—sitting among the presents, and felt that things were going in a good direction.Time will do the rest.Of course, he did not give up his plan to take Sandalphin out, and he had already made a promise.However, I am afraid that this can no longer be achieved by ordinary methods.

He stroked Sandalphin's hair.Sandalph smiled at him quietly.

However, wait until the dead of night.Sandalph sat alone in the room, staring at the phone screen.There were several emails from unknown numbers.Messages from that number are very frequent.One after another.Sandalphin didn't reply to any of them, but he read them all.

"I saw it. Your review meeting. That's unreasonable, isn't it?"

"This is obviously a trap, why do you have to accept it? Right?"

"It's not just you, you, and people you value."

"All enhanced people are in this unreasonable vortex."

"One day we will usher in the end of being abandoned and destroyed."

"And under the current system, you will always be just a decoration."

"Break the system and show that person."

"Otherwise, that person's eyes will never be on you."

"Even now that he has become the director, his responsibilities will become heavier and heavier, and you will become a smaller and smaller part of him. A part that he will never think of even if he gives up."

"He'll keep burning until he burns himself out, and you can't save him or yourself if you don't do something."

"Rewrite the order."

The phone went black with a dead battery.

Who was that email from?Sandalphin didn't know, and didn't want to know.There are only a few numbers in his mobile phone address book so far, among which Lucifer's number is the most familiar to him, other than that, he has not deliberately memorized it.No one will need his number, because there is nothing to communicate with him.So he really didn't know anything about this number today.But those words seemed to have left an invisible imprint on his eyes, even if the screen went dark, he could still recall every word clearly.There are other words mixed in.Lucifer's gentle voice, the judge's taunting voice, Ji Ta's encouraging voice, all the voices mixed together gave him a severe headache.

This information should be reported to Lord Lucifer immediately.Tell him there is instability within Canaan—no, how could he not know?He can certainly handle it.Even if you don't deal with it—— Sandalphin grabbed her hair and suppressed her voice tightly in her throat.

It started from when Lucifer said that sentence, that sentence "Just rely on me".Sandalphin began to have indescribably dark thoughts, as if the twisted seed had finally blossomed into an ugly flower in his heart.His long-term depression finally couldn't be restrained. For a moment, he even thought fiercely that it would be good if Lucifer continued to be weak - so weak that he no longer attracted attention, and he could no longer bear many responsibilities.At that time, I will be with him, no matter what happens to him, I will not leave.The moment his thought came out, it was snuffed out by his own fear.Lucifer would never expect this kind of thing, is this the end result of his own struggle?Not only did he fail to become someone useful to him, he even became a psychologically dark waste?Sandalph could not accept such a self.But there seemed to be a thin voice, whispering persistently in his ear: "You still say to be someone useful to him? Haven't you discovered it yet?"

——"Lucifer never needed you."

Sandalph screamed silently.Through a thin wall, Lucifer, who had been busy all day, was falling asleep.

This night, not only Sandalph, but also Sariel were staring at the phone screen.He waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for a reply, so he slowly typed another email into his phone: he sent everything according to the vice captain's instructions, but there was no reply.

There was also no reply from this number.But Sariel continued typing: An ant crawled into the room today.Ants are fun.

He paused and sent another email: The waterway near the sea has been opened up, and he can go at any time.

Not long after the email was sent, his cell phone finally vibrated and sounded a notification that he had received the email.Sally opened the email with great anticipation, and there was only a short sentence on it: "Well done, thank you Sally. I'll let you know the time."

Sally looked at the phone screen and smiled subconsciously.

After another week or so, Lucifer finally basically returned to his previous state.Sandalphin's mood also stabilized.He doesn't ask any questions every day, but just reads in the atrium honestly.When Lucifer came back, he chatted with him, and when he left, he continued his entertainment activities alone... Or to pass the time.Lucifer tried to fight with the Ethics Association again, but the report he submitted didn't even have a single reply.

"..." Lucifer looked helplessly at the bright red "read" and "not replied" on the report submission page.And Michael came in at this time, seeing Lucifer's tightly frowned brows, he couldn't help asking: "Director, what happened?"

"No. It's just that the Ethics Association doesn't seem to intend to revise Sandalphin's review results. Although I think there is still room for negotiation on this matter. Taking a step back, they should also allow Sandalphin to be accompanied by me. Go down and walk around. Even if there is a dangerous situation, I will not affect human society." Lucifer took a sip of coffee and explained: "I can only speculate that it is the matter of Lucifer that made the entire enhanced human society The right of the project to speak among humans has been greatly reduced. It is very likely that they will simply close the channel for ethical review after this.”

"That means that there is no need to produce new enhanced humans, right? Because they don't need to be put into use."

"Well. I think they have that intention." Lucifer nodded: "As a matter of fact, as an insurance, the existing number of strengthened people in Canaan is indeed sufficient. The future policy should be if there is attrition. Start the production line to create a new enhanced person to supplement. At the same time, strengthen the training and cultivation of the existing enhanced person.”

"Including Sandalphin?" Michael asked.

Lucifer hesitated for a moment, which was rare, and then changed the subject: "The room about Lucifer and the 13th area that he used for experiments during his lifetime are still sealed up, right?"

"Yes. According to your instructions, the state of complete storage is guaranteed. Are you ready to deal with it?"

"Well. If it's the same as I think. It's impossible for my friend to install the power mechanism on a small scale. There must still be a lot of failed products from his experiments. I need to do a risk assessment and dismantle them for preservation."

"In that case, wouldn't it be better for the four of us to accompany you?"

"You stay outside to prevent accidents. Gabriel should have told you." Lucifer stood up, slightly opened some shutters, and looked at the orderly patrolling guards outside: "Canaan There's an air of unease right now."

"... the confusion about the flaws in the Augmentation system itself? Yes, she told me that some people are worried about this kind of nonsense. But is it necessary to be so strict? I think you can just leave half of us Already." Michael sincerely made a suggestion.

"Emotions are contagious. They are more unstable than viruses. Having emotions is both our strength and our weakness." Lucifer explained calmly: "Michael, you should be very clear that Beryl is How to manipulate people's hearts. Don't be negligent on this point."

When Belial was mentioned, a trace of anger and unwillingness flashed across Michael's face, but she also immediately realized her mistake and lowered her head: "It was because I didn't think carefully, so now I will go to carry out the task."

"Thanks a lot."

Lucifer actually had his own considerations.He didn't want the specific content of Lucifer's research to spread too widely, and at the same time, he wanted to have a deeper understanding of this new technology.He is confident in his friend's technology, but he doesn't know if it can be applied to the current situation.With these worries in mind, Lucifer cleared his other schedules in the afternoon, and came to District 13 alone.The messy District 13 still maintained the state after he killed Beelzebub that day.The corpses of the enhanced humans have all been cleaned and frozen in the nearest freezer.Now there are only a few ruins left here.

But Lucifer obviously won't let his achievements be displayed outside.So Lucifer walked straight through the ruins without staying for a moment.He opened several password doors along the way according to his speculation about Lucifer, but was accidentally stuck in front of the last one.

It was a door with two electronic locks, which were divided into internal locks and external locks.Enter two passwords respectively.The previous door lock Lucifer knew that Lucifer's habit was to use his mobile phone to generate a string of random numbers and combine them with the date.You only need to master the algorithm of the random number program and you can easily crack it, but the two methods of Lucifer seem to have suddenly changed the algorithm.Lucifer failed to open it even after losing several times.

"...?" What would my friend think?Lucifer really couldn't say it well.Lucifer in his eyes is almost a research fanatic, and he has no interest in anything other than research.There are quite a few things that he hates, but what Lucifer can think of is that he is a picky eater and doesn't like potatoes.But that doesn't do anything for guessing passwords.Lucifer tried various personal information of Lucifer on the outer lock, but found nothing.In the end, he had no choice but to take out the code breaker he had prepared, install it and slowly decipher it—he thought he would have to wait a long time, this must be a string of garbled codes without any rules or emotions at all.Unexpectedly, the password breaker reported the result within five seconds after it was installed - the outer lock was his name Lucifer.

Lucifer froze for a moment.The inner lock is also the same structure.He looked at the combination disk with some discomfort, and then he tried to enter Belial's name.This time it opened smoothly.A strong cold air overflowed from inside, Lucifer raised his head.This looks like quite a big thing.As the whole picture of this thing slowly unfolded in front of him, Lucifer's usually calm face was gradually filled with shock.

- Never let this thing leave Canaan.It was his only thought.Other than that, all he could feel was the sheer rage and madness of Lucifer on his legacy.He actually really hated humans to such an extent.The creation in front of him can't even be called a living thing, but just a simple "weapon".Its very existence is enough to make humans panic and fight.Hundreds of thousands of cores flicker on and off on its body, interconnected and mutually amplified.Lucifer thought that even he might not be able to single-handedly stop this thing from the activated state, so it must not be activated.But he immediately realized that since he would think so, then the Lucifer side who created this must have the opposite idea, and they would definitely want to take this out, so they should also have a backup for this.

Sooner or later someone will come and take this thing away.Canaan was about to face a war.

Lucifer predicted so, and then closed the door to seal Lucifer's legacy without hesitation.It's time for him to prepare for the battle in advance, but since he wants to fight... he must first send Sandalphine away.Lucifer thought about where Sandalphin was going.Gran Saifa may be able to, but as the only ship used by the outside world and Canaan, Gran Saifa is likely to be the target of attack.Not safe enough.There should be other places.

After thinking for a long time, he suddenly came up with the answer, and then breathed a sigh of relief.Indeed, most people would never think of that place.Nor will it be attacked by those who seek Lucifer's legacy.Sandalphin would not be blamed by humans for being there—and he could also quietly take Sandalphine out from there after the matter was over.The only thing he has to do now is to explain the situation to Sandalphin.Although he may feel a little wronged, Sandalphin is a good boy, so he will definitely understand.

Definitely, understandable.

"San Delphine. I will temporarily send you to the Temple of Voldemort. Not as a prisoner, but to let you live in a guard facility there for a while. Of course, in name, I need to make up a reason to send you. But you Don’t worry, your food and clothing and communication with me will remain as they are.”

When Lucifer explained to Sandalphin later, he felt something strange while talking.He has already introduced to Sandalphin what the Temple of Demons is, and emphasized the particularity of this transfer to Sandalphin, but he still felt that Sandalphin was shaking, which made him unable to hold down the Holy Land Defen's shoulder: "You don't have anything to worry about, just wait for me there. After I settle the matter here..." He leaned close to Defen's ear and whispered: "I can secretly take You go out. Sandalphin, let's go see various scenery together."

"Really. Lucifer... Your lord. What are you going to do... What?"

"Sorry, I can't say. This incident itself is just my speculation, and it may not happen."

"Then how long do I have to wait..."

"I can't give a specific time. But I promise you, I will try to be as fast as possible."

"Can't I... can't... stay by your side? I also promise you that I will not hold you back... I will... I will wait here obediently..."

Sandalphin is indeed shaking.Lucifer was able to confirm this.It pained him, and he knew he must have frightened Sandalphin.But keeping him here would be detrimental to his personal safety.This is already the lesser of two evils, so even though Lucifer was very reluctant, he could only reply: "No. San Defen, only this time, please be patient."

Sandalphin opened his hand for the first time and staggered back a few steps.

"...I'm sorry, please leave me alone."

He left the atrium almost as if fleeing.
