Chapter 372 System
Chapter 372 System
Clovis sucked a cold breath. He had never thought that such a person would be sitting in front of him. And it didn't seem like she came here because of his grandfather.
Meanwhile, the other party seemed to notice his shock but ignored it as she continued with her explanation.
"The first time I saw it was when I killed the mastermind who had created me."
"Created you?" Clovis frowned.
"I wouldn't go into details, but the first thing I saw was the system telling me I had a mission and had completed it.
"!!!" Clovis shivered. This was what happened to him as well.
"Judging from your reaction, it seems that you understand what I'm talking about."
She was the real deal, Clovis thought. Hence, he confirmed, "I've seen a similar thing as my first time. Is this a special power or something?"
"I don't know."
"Then, do a lot of people have this system?"
"I'm not sure. I have only seen four people who have this power. You, me, and two others. One of them is Tier 9, while the other one is a Tier 6 human."
"Another Tier 9?" Clovis frowned. When presented with this fact, Clovis first questioned his own bloodline. Obviously, the first Tier 9 that appeared in his mind was his grandfather. "Who are they?"
"Their names...I don't think I've asked for their names." Mara shook her head. "How many times have you seen the system?"
"Two times. I'm not really sure about my first time, but if it's as you describe, the trigger must be... either a certain terrorist organization or the person I hate." Clovis crossed his arms. He personally believed that Ivan might be the trigger for it. "Are you searching for the people who have this system?"
"I wonder." Mara looked out the window as if she were staring at something that didn't exist. "If this world is a simulation, does that mean our path is predestined? Or is our path a result of calculation?"
"It's nothing much. I just hope that you can continue to survive. I get the feeling that we'll meet again in the future..." Mara turned around while adding, "Besides, Flow Control doesn't necessarily mean speed. It can be pace, shape, or other things. The blood in one's body is no different than the water in the river."
"Blood in the body is not different than water in the river?" Clovis widened his eyes in shock. He didn't know why, but those words resonated with his heart.
While Clovis was shocked, Mara had already returned the tray. No, during the whole conversation, she had been finishing her food while waiting for Clovis to get over his reaction.
Now that she had finished the food, she simply left as if there was nothing else to discuss among them.
And just like that, Clovis didn't realize that she had gone.
"Ah!" Clovis snapped back and hurriedly chased her outside. Sadly, her figure was already gone by the time he exited the building. "This..."
Clovis scratched the back of his head, not knowing how to react. When he returned, he saw the bag for the last set of burger and soda as if she had bought it for Erwin.
"There are really a lot of unique people out there." Clovis could only smile wryly.
...
Several minutes later.
Erwin let out a groan as he gradually opened his eyes. "Kh..."
Erwin's mind was still fuzzy, but his body was instinctively shivering as he remembered what he saw before passing out.
"You're awake?" Clovis' voice echoed in his ears.
"!!!" Erwin turned his head to the right and hurriedly grabbed Clovis. Even though his hands were trembling and his voice was shaking, he still warned him. "Clovis! Hurry up and escape! That person is—Mmff!"
Clovis shoved the burger into his mouth in order to shut him up. "Eat this first and calm down."
