666 had foreseen this kind of brutality from its Host. It did not even feel an ounce of shock. It was already different from the system it used to be, who could only cower in fear everytime Lu Yizhou talked about killing someone. This time, it could even discuss the strategy with its Host.
[666: Well, if those creatures die, the burden on 55 will be lifted for sure. We will be able to break the time loop as well. 666 assumed that this is the correct way to save the villain in this world. But, Host… there are more than a hundred experimental subjects in that place. Are you sure you will be able to handle them…?]
666's concern was not unfounded. After all, Lu Yizhou was only a lone person. If he was besieged by a dozen experimental subjects who threw all kinds of strange powers at him, then he would surely be overwhelmed. He could even lose his life and fail the mission.
A little explanation because delana doesn't know how to include it in the main text QAQ actually it's been explained but if you're still confused, here is the concise explanation of what 55 is going through
1. He is currently trapped in a time loop which he created by himself
2. It's caused by his wish to save the humankind from the experimental subjects and hence, he travelled countless times to the past and future to find someone who could fight them in his place
3. Even tho he is quite OP, he is actually not strong enough to get rid of all the subjects by himself and thus, he needed outside help
In other words, the time loop is the origin of the curse.
The time loop is as follows:
55 woke up and triggered Pandora's Box > research institute destroyed > Nightingale Prison was built > 55 was betrayed by human's greed > 55 self-destructed and turned into Pandora > Pandora escaped from prison > 55 woke up
So LYZ needs to break this time loop in order to save 55
I'm sorry for how complicated this arc is QAQ if you have any questions please ask me in the comment section!
