I am in the abyss of Collapse

"Not only can it be converted into any other energy source, it can also be stored in a solid state. Its reserves are huge. As long as we can open the channel to the imaginary space, we can create something that seems to be a perpetual motion machine now..." The girl picked up the fragments of Honkai energy on the ground and pinched the strange purple crystals with her fingers. "It can also enhance human functions, make people extremely powerful, and even... gain immortality."

As he spoke, Luo Lin glanced at the treasure.

Fu Hua is a fusion warrior from 50,000 years ago, and Kevin is also a survivor of the previous civilization. 50,000 years have not had much impact on their bodies. In the foreseeable future, they will remain young...

"Whether in the East or the West, for the sake of the illusory method of prolonging life, the powerful have done so many terrible things, such as refining elixirs, practicing Taoism, and performing witchcraft sacrifices... It is conceivable that when something like Honkai Energy, which is almost certain to strengthen the human body, appeared, they were ecstatic."

Luo Lin turned his eyes back and looked at Xilin.

The Valkyrie said softly, "Have you discovered it? Xilin, what is the most important reason here that would allow people to lose face and capture irrelevant people for experiments just to seek immortality?"

Xilin pursed her lips.

“It’s [Honkai].”

Luo Lin raised her head and stared at the sky illuminated by purple and red: "Without it, there would be no destiny, no crazy Otto, and the Black Death would be just an ordinary epidemic... Xilin, your parents might still be alive, and you would live a comfortable and harmonious life in the town."

She thought of a lot, and countless images flashed through the girl's mind, the most common of which was the country she had crossed before.

Wide streets, people walking with their heads held high, and smiling faces.

"...The one you should take revenge on the most should be [Honkai] itself."

"..."

"Wait a minute, you seem to have seen... you have seen a world where [Houkai] does not exist!?"

The scenes that flashed through Luo Lin's mind were so shocking that the Herrscher of Consciousness couldn't help but interrupt her communication with Xilin.

After Jing Shibao mentioned this, Xilin also reacted. She looked at Luo Lin with her golden eyes, with complex emotions lingering in her eyes.

"Yes, I am not from this world - I am a nosy time traveler. In a sense, I am the same kind of person as you, Xilin."

"…Humans and Herrscher are different."

"Really? I don't see any difference between you and humans." Luo Lin said, "You get angry and sad, you get better because of delicious food, and you get depressed because you can't enjoy delicious food... You have all seven emotions and six desires, so how come you are not a human?"

Thinking of this, Luo Lin couldn't help but thank Alicia. Thanks to this guy who ran back and did a great job on Honkai, the Herrschers here are now no different from humans.

"Alicia...?"

Shibao remembered the pink-haired girl who seemed to be very familiar with her. She subconsciously pinched Yu Duchen and felt that this thing was not as smooth as the Herrscher Core.

The Herrishers are human beings...

"I... am human?"

"That's right. Besides, aren't your family members here? Kiana has truly acknowledged you. Didn't that dumb guy Siegfried show his true feelings towards you before? Remember when you used Yu Du Chen during the second Honkai? And now, he has decided to trust me and believe that I can bring you back."

Luo Lin felt the holy scar on his back gradually burning, and a white-haired figure appeared, casting a gentle look at Xilin.

——Of course, how can Cecilia be missing at this time?

"...I have killed tens of millions of people. I know that I am the same as those bad guys."

Xilin blinked and bit her lip gently.

"How could that be? We all make mistakes, we just have to correct them."

Luo Lin said.

"Come back, Xilin. You can still supervise us. We will work hard to bring all the bad guys in this world to justice and spread smiles and warmth all over the earth..."

"In order to prevent children like you from being persecuted again, in order to eradicate the source of all this suffering... and in order to allow you to feel the warmth of home again and make up for all that is missing."

"I extend an invitation to you, Sirin, to return to our side and fight for all that is good in the world."

"……Um."

The next moment, Xilin threw herself into Cecilia's arms like a young swallow returning to its nest, and her tears fell on the Honkai energy crystal, emitting colorful light.

The Herrscher of Consciousness saw that a piece of quantum erosion on Yu Duchen disappeared.

"Ha, Herrscher is human... well, human."

The gray-haired girl lightly played the Key of God.

Luo Lin looked at Xilin and Cecilia hugging each other, and breathed a sigh of relief. Then she thanked Shibao next to her:

"Thank you, Fu Hua."

"I say, you didn't forget that our mind connection has not been broken yet?"

The Herrscher of Knowledge squinted his eyes, smiled bitterly and said, "Knowledge Treasure, huh? Luo Lin, you didn't know that there was something wrong with me a long time ago, did you?"

"..."

It’s broken, what should I do?

----------

Good night. If there are any mistakes, I will correct them tomorrow.

Volume 187: Carrot and stick are most effective: Chapter Chapter A small talk

"that……"

Luo Lin opened her mouth, her mind was in a mess.

Ah, I just comforted Xilin, and now she's getting into trouble with Shibao again. What should I say? Should I join her in scolding the old antique for not knowing how to adapt? Or should I just punch Otto in the face to vent my anger? Or should I drag her out to find Kevin to reminisce about the past?

"First of all, without mentioning who the old antique is, why do you think I want to punch Otto? How did he provoke me?"

"How has he not provoked you?"

Luo Lin widened her eyes and was about to say that Fu Hua had been shot in the forehead by Otto, but then she remembered that this had not actually happened.

Never mind, let's change to someone else. Otto Apokalis has done too many bad things anyway...

Shibao was confused: "Wait a minute, what did you say? Why would Otto hit me... No, hit Fu Hua? I see that so far, the two of them have been working together pretty well, haven't they?"

The Herrscher of Knowledge's question brought back Luo Lin's memories. She certainly could not forget Otto Apokalis' famous statement: "Red Kite Immortal, I am not lying."

Shibao saw Otto's gloomy face and the fleeting figure of the Holy Judge of Skyfire.

Damn Mimicry Skyfire Holy Judge... Oh, it seems like Luo Lin can also make this thing now, but currently he can only make the Skyfire Greatsword, and there is still a long way to go before he can make the dual guns...

The girl shook her head and explained, "It only looks like they are getting along well on the surface. In fact, Fu Hua should also know that Otto is doing something shameful behind her back - but she needs Otto's power to protect Shenzhou, so she has to tolerate it."

"Fu Hua is a conservative person. All she thinks about is protecting humanity, guarding Shenzhou, and eliminating Honkai... and Otto..."

Luo Lin found it difficult to find an accurate word to describe this Bishop of Heaven's Fate: "On the surface, he is a great orator, a leader who leads the times to fight against the collapse... But he is also a madman, a clown, and will do anything to achieve his goals... I suspect that Otto Apokalis is essentially different from normal humans. More importantly..."

"Karen control?"

The word "know treasure" suddenly popped up, choking Luo Lin. Obviously, this was the result of the spiritual connection.

The black-haired girl nodded helplessly: "Yes, Kallen-con. A part of Otto has been left forever five hundred years ago. All he has now is just to reverse time and create a world where his Kallen exists on the Tree of Imaginary Numbers..."

The Herrscher of Knowledge saw the giant golden tree that reached from the sky to the earth through the mental link, and Otto who was staggering forward... It was hard to imagine that Otto would have such an expression on his face. At least in the hundreds of years that Fu Hua had worked with Otto, she had basically seen Otto who was calm and unhurried.

——The above pictures are from the MV of “Thus Spoke Apokalis”.

"The picture in your memory is a bit strange... That guy's mind is full of this?"

Shibao didn't dwell on this. She murmured in disbelief, "But Otto usually looks normal..."

"This is the terrifying thing about Otto." Luo Lin sighed, "He can even seamlessly connect to a woman's soul steel body. Whether in action or performance, he looks 100% female...but the soul inside is actually Otto Apokalis."

"He also uses soul steel to make his body?!"

I have become a little numb to treasure recognition. To be honest, most of the soul steel left in the Earth's shelter by the previous era civilization was used to make "Soul Steel Computers", which stored various scientific and technological research. Another part was used to make weapons, and the remaining soul steel was used to protect these items from collapse or other accidental damage.

After all, the most important property of soul steel is its self-repairing ability. This property has allowed the shelters and computers that preserve the fire of civilization to persist from the previous era to the present...

Then Otto used this strategic material to make his own body, and it seems that he made more than one or two. It seems that he also dismantled the soul steel computer and used it to do this?

"What a loser! Just this alone is enough to give Otto and I a fight!"

"Actually, this is nothing... The important thing is that Otto let the Herrscher of the Void go time and again just to carry out his plan. In fact, the second Honkai Impact could have ended long ago. Walter Yang and Siegfried even knocked Sirin down at the beginning, but Otto later scared them off..."

Shibao’s fist hardened!

Wait a minute, it seems like she is the Herrscher now, why is she angry with Otto who allowed the Honkai Impact to happen?

The Herrscher of Knowledge was a little stuck, but she soon found a reason for herself - didn't Luo Lin just say that Herrschers are human? I am human, I am not happy with this guy Otto, of course!

Well, that’s right!

Luo Lin pondered for a moment and continued, "What completely triggered the conflict between Fu Hua and Otto was that he allowed the Herrscher of the Void to hunt down Theresa, Raiden Mei and the others... Oh, this seems to be a story that happens in the future..."

"How do you know so much about the future?"

The Herrscher of Knowledge finally realized that something was wrong. The stories that Luo Lin was thinking about now... looked so strange, like some not-so-delicate 2D or 3D images...

"Well... didn't I say before that I'm a time traveler..."

"The time traveler is...? Oh, you don't have to tell me, I already know through the mind link, please continue."

"...Before I traveled through time, I played a game called... "Honkai Impact 3" - there are so many stories about this world in it."

When saying this, Luo Lin's eyes were filled with nostalgia.

"Among them is you, the Herr of Knowledge, our most beloved treasure of knowledge."

A series of emoticons emerged from the girl's heart, highlighting a cute and playful image. Similarly, these emoticons and pictures also include various black kites, sunglasses, and various fraud elements.

The most important thing is of course Shibao’s iconic healthy smile. You can tell it’s Shibao at first glance!

"...My god, the people in your world are so weird. They actually like a Herrscher."

Shibao couldn't tell whether she was happy or helpless, but her mood was obviously not as bad as before.

"Because you're really cute!"

Luo Lin said sincerely: "Even when he realized that he was a Herrscher in the end, he did not take extreme revengeful actions. He just left after saying a few words... He was even willing to lend his power to Fu Hua in the end, uh..."

"Good fellow, Fu Hua is trying to steal my power, right?"

----------

I can't struggle anymore today, so I took a nap.

Good night everyone!

Volume 188: Carrot and stick are most effective: Chapter Chapter How much memory did Fu Hua burn?

It must be said that when Fu Hua was fighting with the Ruler of Rule, the scene of forcibly snatching the power of identifying treasures left a deep impression on Luo Lin, so much so that when the incident was mentioned, the girl began to replay the scene in her mind -

The Herr of Consciousness kept nagging for a long time, saying that Fu Hua would solve the trouble herself. In fact, his attitude had already softened. He would have willingly borrowed the power if they had just chatted a few more words, but he didn't expect Fu Hua to transform into the anxious King and snatch it away.

“I’m sorry—!”

Seeing the moment when the Ruler of Consciousness was slacking off, Fu Hua pulled the chain representing the Ruler's power towards herself with all her strength!

"Old antique! You——!"

Shibao watched this scene in the mind link, which was labeled by Luo Lin as "the original scam" and "fainted by the old antique", and listened to his own angry voice. He couldn't describe how weird and embarrassing it was.

She was speechless, covering her face, and muttered:

"...So the old antique was talking about Fu Hua. This guy really looks like an old antique... No, is the power of the Herrscher so easy to steal?!"

After saying this, the Herrscher of Knowledge had a somewhat subtle expression on her face. She looked at the black feather-shaped Herrscher core that was still supplying energy to her body. It seemed that it didn't take her much effort to get this thing...

Uh, no, I am the Herrer, this thing is mine, it is my right to take it, it must be easy to return it to its original owner - but what happened to Fu Hua? Just pull it like that?

"Is there a possibility that you actually trust Fu Hua very much? So..."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, the person you know is not the real me." Shibao said in a very sure tone, "I trust you more than Old Antique now."

After saying this, the Herrscher of Consciousness was stunned. She looked at Luo Lin's surprised expression and her face suddenly turned red.

Luo Lin's eyes became subtle. Did she let the cat out of the bag?

Shibao shouted, "Well, you actually know how to trick me! You are so cunning, so Otto!"

"...I won't complain about why you use Otto as a unit of measurement, but the mind link has always been there. If I wanted to trick you into talking, wouldn't you have known it a long time ago?"

Luo Lin looked at the Herrscher of Knowledge and shook her head - she felt that he was not as stubborn as Mobius.

There is a joke that the Herrscher of the End destroyed the earth, but Mebius is still alive because her mouth still exists...

"I seem to have some impression of the person you mentioned, but not much."
