What? My cheat code is making my own gold coins explode?

Using the moonquake caused by the End, she found an opportunity to lift a rock that was not very large for the moon, using the five powers as fulcrums to separate the rock from the moon. After losing the rock, the moon appeared to have just another deep crater.

It was just a small rock with a long half-axis of about 32.7 kilometers and a short half-axis of about 4.3 kilometers and 2.1 kilometers respectively—although protecting this rock had left Sirin somewhat exhausted from several battles, she was content as long as she could destroy the human civilization that lived on the ground and make that guy lose all hope.

The fight with Zhao Si at the God's Palace made Xilin realize her true feelings. She respected God, but that didn't mean she would suppress herself according to God's will.

Sirin no longer needs a god.

Zhao Si, who is on his way: ? ? ?

It is humanity's arrogance and sins that gave birth to an existence like her, to punish them:

"Rejoice in your impending liberation, you ants!"

Sirin exerted all her strength to apply an electromagnetic field to accelerate the entire rock. In space, the rock that was actively rushing towards Earth had already exceeded Mach 20, but even with all her efforts, Sirin could only accelerate the rock she was pushing to this extent.

But the results will be worthwhile. In less than fifteen hours, this stone, this stone weighing only 3.8 billion tons, will be captured by Earth's gravity, causing an even more spectacular fall. At that time, Sirin will naturally be able to purify human civilization once and for all.

Even if there are other children who have suffered the same fate as her, they can find release under this stone, burying all their souls deep within this planet for the next cycle of reincarnation.

Whether as a Herrscher or no longer a Herrscher, Sirin could already sense Zhao Si getting closer and closer to her.

The other party will definitely choose to protect that traitor again, and will definitely attack me alone again. I will definitely make that boy regret it deeply, feel remorseful, and regret not surrendering to me sooner, not repenting to me sooner...

"Zhao Si, you are truly a greedy human being."

"Cirin! You bastard!"

Here it comes, that blue arc of light!

As the phoenix's light streaked across the universe, Phoenix's psycho-frame grew ever brighter, filling Sirin's vision and causing her body and soul to tremble.

The close-quarters combat with Zhao Si made Xilin realize everything about him; the physical intimacy between spiritual beings was SOX! She abandoned her usual timidity, discarding the stone beneath her feet, and charged directly at him with a joyful expression:

"You can sense me, right, Zhao Si? So, I can sense you too. Our souls were connected just now!"

"Shut up! That's not true understanding. There's an unfathomable chasm between you and me."

"Even at a time like this, are you still going to be stubborn?!"

As Sirin said, Zhao Si could clearly sense the other person's thoughts when he drove towards the stone, but Zhao Si did not believe that he and Sirin could understand each other. This Herrscher was just using his power to do whatever he wanted.

"No one who is genuinely communicating with another person... always acts superior!"

Phoenix's Vulcan cannons seemed to fire endlessly at Sirin, but these were all useless harassment attacks. Sirin casually slapped them away, and the ideal fluid blocked all the solid bullets.

"It's really unfair of me to always have you pilot such a tall machine to fight me."

Sirin's thoughts were transmitted into Zhao Si's brain. The next moment, Zhao Si watched as Sirin used five Herrscher cores to condense a 20-meter Honkai energy shell that resembled the opponent's face and figure. Although a normal human body size is more advantageous in dealing with large mechs, Sirin insisted on giving up this advantage and using Honkai energy to create a gigantic body in order to fight Phoenix in close combat.

Was this guy just getting addicted to fighting me in the mental space?

"Since that's the case, since that's the case... I'm going to correct you, a Herrscher of the Law!"

"Then come on, Zhao Si! Prove to me that your attraction to me is deeper than the Earth itself!"

"You don't need to nag me!"

Phoenix collided violently with the gigantic Honkai energy shell! Under the thrust of Phoenix's eight thrusters, the makeshift shell was pushed back step by step, and was even pressed into the meteorite.

The two people located at the center of Phoenix and the body seemed to be pressed together again, able to see each other's expressions clearly through the chaotic mental field and Honkai energy tide.

As the two collided, two DE armors behind Phoenix flew out and clashed with the Second Herrscher's Imaginary Hand. The control was equally evenly matched. The Imaginary Hand tried to grab the DE shield and refine it instantly, but it was stopped by the blue mental field that had almost solidified into a substance, and instead crushed the Imaginary Hand.

No, pressing the Herrscher down on the meteorite like this will only make it fall to Earth faster.

Realizing this, Zhao Si immediately released Xilin's body, and then a wanton laugh came from the latter's mind:

"Hahahaha! Zhao Si, admit it, right now you'd rather fight me than save those so-called ants on Earth."

"How can I save the Earth if I don't defeat you!"

The stones that Xilin had brought down were still being accelerated by the opponent's power. The journey, which was originally expected to take fifteen hours, had been shortened to less than ten hours in the short time the two were fighting.

It was precisely because Zhao Si realized this that he wanted to deal with the Second Herrscher who was stationed on the meteorite first. The Herrscher took advantage of this to trap Zhao Si and Phoenix here.

To be honest, Sirin, who sacrificed the convenience of her physical form, was completely clueless about fighting. A mage with 10,000 HP and high resistance, who had a turret with no cooldown and a teleportation ability, took the initiative to go up and fight in close combat.

It was only thanks to her status as a Herrscher that she could manipulate the imaginary space to obtain almost unlimited Honkai energy; otherwise, under Phoenix's punches imbued with mental fields, Sirin's playful body would have been shattered by his force.

However, the current situation is that Sirin stands on the meteorite, repeating the cycle of being pierced by Phoenix and then being restored to the same spot, while the meteorite below is still being accelerated by Sirin, with less than eight hours left before it is captured by Earth's gravity.

However, only 10 minutes have passed since Zhao Si and Xi Lin first clashed.

Zhao Si knew that if he allowed Xilin to continue accelerating like this, even if he used Phoenix to eliminate the meteorite's accelerating magnetic field, could the initial velocity that the meteorite possessed in the zero-resistance universe really be stopped? This meteorite had already reached Mach 45.

"So you're finally starting to worry, Zhao Si?"

"It's precisely because of troublesome Herrschers like you that I'm unable to protect people!"

"Even if you don't know them, do you still want to show off?"

"Even if you know them, would you still do this? Even if I only saw poor children like Yulia Bazaeva at the Tower of Babel, wouldn't I still decide to protect other children like them in the world?"

Yulia Bazareva, Xilin remembered, was one of the surviving test subjects from the same batch as her, but Zhao Si only saw her pitiful state and wanted to stand on the opposite side.

However, now that things had come to this, Xilin would no longer bother asking Zhao Si such a coquettish question as "Why don't you pity me?" She simply shed her playful facade, revealing her true nature, and then snapped her fingers—

No sound could be heard in space, but a warning signal flashed through Zhao Si's mind. He controlled Phoenix to immediately turn away from Xilin, but the imaginary cube that appeared in front of him blocked his way for a moment:

"The meteorite is currently traveling at Mach 50, so I don't need to accelerate it. It will fall to Earth in five hours."

"And Zhao Si, you will wait for the rebirth of Earth in this infinite corridor of space."

Phoenix used all her strength to activate the psycho-framework, but Zhao Si had reached her limit and could not go any further. She could only let the power creation of the Herrscher of the Void engulf her.

"Cirin...stop..."

"What a mess, even my telepathy has become intermittent."

Celine gracefully stepped forward, stroking Phoenix's mechanical fingers that were stretching out with her slender right palm. Then, with a gentle press, all of Phoenix's last desperate resistance was sealed off by the Infinite Corridor.

"It's a promise, I'll be waiting for you at the Tower of Babylon. The meteorite represents my hatred for humanity. If you can stop this meteorite, then it will be a life-or-death battle between us. Before that, I will not kill a single ant."

"Zhao Si, I am captivated by your overwhelming fighting prowess. I would call this feeling love! But once it is overcome, love turns to hate. An overly strong belief can incite war. This is the war between you and me."

Sirin's words were unusually calm and gentle. What was this Herrscher saying at this moment that was so nonsensical?

For the first time, Zhao Si couldn't understand what the other person was saying. Before this, he was always the one talking to others about these nonsensical things.

Now is not the time to think about these things. Zhao Si tried his best to urge Phoenix on, but without the Second Herrscher as a combat opponent, Phoenix seemed to fall into inertia. Along with the machine, Zhao Si's own spirit also sank.

Another Newtype?

Zhao Si tried his best to activate Phoenix, but Phoenix still did not respond to Zhao Si's brainwaves.

"Phoenix, move! Phoenix, why aren't you moving!"

Inevitably, Zhao Si fell into despair. He never expected that he would fail in such a place. He should have known that Sirin, as the Second Herrscher, had not yet used this move. However, he had been engaged in a real and mental battle with her and had no extra energy to think about anything else.

No, that's not right. I shouldn't make excuses for myself, but what can I do now?

Zhao Si was strapped to the cockpit of Phoenix. The anti-G-force injection had been temporarily stopped. He was panting heavily, sweat poured out and spread throughout the cockpit, his lips were dry, and his eyes were bloodshot with exhaustion.

If I can't calm down, will I just have to watch the meteorite fall again, doing nothing?

"We can't do this, we can't run away, we can't do this, we can't run away, we can't do this, we can't run away..."

"Is it really impossible? Am I really incapable of doing anything?"

The machine's psycho-sensory framework was gradually dimming. Zhao Si couldn't break through this infinite corridor, and he couldn't even activate the DE shield behind him.

Xilin thoughtfully opened up a view to the outside world for Zhao Si. She embedded the Infinite Corridor at the very front of the meteorite, allowing Zhao Si to watch himself getting closer and closer to the blue Earth.

Is this the end of it...?

Zhao Si had already closed his eyes; the world was pitch black, and it had nothing to do with him.

"juvenile!"

A deafening shout tore through the infinite corridor of space. An SR-71 "Blackbird" reconnaissance plane rushed into the corridor. Walter Yang, the First Herrscher, who created the SR-71 that could accelerate at will in the universe, caught up with the speed of the meteorite, broke through the infinite corridor, and came to Zhao Si.

"Walter? What's this feeling, Phoenix... Phoenix can move again."

Walter Young jumped out of the Blackbird reconnaissance plane, and Zhao Si reacted immediately, opening the cockpit to welcome the enemy's intrusion.

Then, Walter Yang removed a dusty white, prismatic crystal from his body and handed it to Zhao Si.

"I believe in you, the core of the Law of Reason."

Zhao Si took the Herrscher core. At the same time, Welt Yang, who had forcibly extracted the Herrscher core, began to bleed from his mouth. Without the support of the Herrscher core, his body was on the verge of collapse.

"Okay, I know what to do."

At this very moment, half of the people on the ground could clearly see a meteorite approaching Earth, and an indescribable sense of panic gripped their hearts.

It was only then that governments around the world realized that the Second Herrscher had been using ideal fluids to conceal the existence of the meteorite. Even though Anti-Entropy, which was the first to react, had already launched nuclear missiles, the electromagnetic field surrounding the meteorite prevented these missiles from detonating.

Only after the Second Herrscher's departure could people observe the existence of the meteorite, and the launched missiles could detonate normally, but it was too late; the announcement of the end of the world was imminent.

So Phoenix braced itself against the very tip of the meteorite with both hands, its eight thrusters working continuously to generate power:

"It's just a rock, watch me push you back with my Gundam!"

Phoenix is ​​more than just good-looking!

Phoenix's entire psycho-frame glowed brightly with blue light, but the meteorite had already developed a fiery flow layer—it had been captured by Earth's gravity and was irresistibly falling towards Earth. Even when Phoenix's armored DE flew out to hold the meteorite back, it was to no avail.

The meteorite's temperature was gradually rising, and this high temperature was even able to break through Phoenix's mental field, constantly scorching his palm inside the stone.

"The boy... the boy's life, along with mine, is going to be sucked away by this machine, this Phoenix."

Walter Young clearly sensed that his and Zhao Si's spirits were fading away, but along with it, all of Phoenix's power nozzles stopped working.

Yes, after such a fierce battle, even the Milovsky nuclear fusion reactor has run out of energy, with only the psycho-frame still responding to the will of the two people inside the machine.

No, it wasn't just the two of them.

That is the core of the Herrscher of Reason, the core of the Herrscher of Reason formed from the will of 300,000 humans who died in the First Honkai Impact.

The thoughts of 300,000 people have come together to speak a single, unified voice:

"This is a critical moment for the survival of the Earth; it's worth a try!"

The psycho-frame was resonating wildly, and blue-green light burst forth from Phoenix, quickly covering the 3.8 billion-ton rock!
