I am in the abyss of Collapse

"Ok."

The two of them left the Changkong City Airport, chatting like sisters about the interesting scenery they had seen recently.

————————————————————

"Okay, that's all for today's class..."

Luo Lin waved her one-handed sword, looked at Raiden Mei who was sweating and panting with a training knife not far away, and asked with a smile: "How do you feel about this warm-up activity?"

"So... so strong!" exclaimed the girl with long blue-purple hair.

Yes, Luo Lin and Raiden Mei just had a sparring match, and the result was obvious. The logistics Valkyrie of Destiny beat a certain Herrscher...

After all, Mei is still just an academic student, and they haven’t even had many competitions. How can she compare with Luo Lin, who is “dying and living” in the abyss every night?

From the beginning of the battle, Raiden Mei felt like a moth caught in a spider web. No matter what she wanted to do, Luo Lin would predict it in advance. She couldn't even swing a complete sword before being interrupted by the Valkyrie, which made the girl very angry.

In line with this emotion, blue-white lightning appeared on the training sword held by Raiden Mei, making crackling sounds.

"Mei, you need to control your emotions. This situation only shows that your anger is out of control, and your power is leaking out with the help of this uncontrolled emotion..."

Luo Lin easily deflected Mei's attack. Kiana, who was watching, blinked, and seemed to see a black and white vortex appear in front of the Valkyrie in a trance, which deflected and interrupted all of Mei's attacks.

——It is the sword guarding style in Taixu sword technique!

Although Luo Lin has always said that her Taixu swordsmanship is not very good, but look at the enemies she faced: Herrscher, martial arts masters, alien mechanical creations, imaginary numbers and quantum monsters, abyss monsters covered with ghostly terms... It can only be said that facing these out-of-specification guys, Luo Lin's attacks are very "ordinary".

But in fact, after so many battles, Luo Lin's swordsmanship has made great progress, but she didn't realize what was happening to her for a while.

Mei Raiden became the first victim of her improved swordsmanship. The Taixu swordsmanship, which contained the unique philosophy of Shenzhou, flowed and flickered. Even though Mei used some of the power of the Herrscher, she was defeated by Luo Lin's exquisite but unpretentious swordsmanship.

After a few minutes, Mei Raiden admitted defeat.

She looked at her entangled arms, wiped the sweat from her head, and said, "Teacher Luo Lin, you have experienced many battles, right?"

"Ah."

"Then you must be the S-rank Valkyrie of destiny, right?"

Luo Lin coughed: "Well, I'm still a B-level Valkyrie..."

Mei Raiden opened her mouth in surprise: "Is the strength of Tianming so strong? All B-rank Valkyries are the same as you..."

Luo Lin held his forehead with his hand: "I think you may have some misunderstandings about destiny... I just have some expertise in combat and can reach the threshold of A-level. In other aspects... I still need to learn..."

Command, strategy, etc...

Wuliangta Jizi's disappointed look appeared in Luo Lin's mind, making her shudder.

Mei Raiden nodded as if she understood. Luo Lin thought about it and explained to her, "It can be said that CA-level Valkyries are still within the scope of human understanding, but S-level... only the most talented, hardworking, and luckiest people can take on the position... They are out of the standard."

And one of them was out of specification.

"Okay, that's all for today's class. We'll come back tomorrow."

"Ok."

Luo Lin brought Qiana back to the apartment and found that Fu Hua had not returned yet. After leaving dinner for Fu Hua, they returned to their respective rooms to rest.

The Valkyrie lay on the bed and opened the system panel.

[The "Paradise" module has been upgraded. 】

"Okay, then I'm here!"

Luo Lin pressed the icon, and a white light obscured her vision. Then came the familiar feeling of falling, and she landed lightly in a familiar room.

"Wow, this is the center of Paradise, the place that looks like a living room?"

There is a bar, sofas, tables, a workbench with a holographic projection, stairs leading to the basement and the second floor... and that huge portal, where you can quickly start your journey to the paradise of suffering.

Wait, did she just go straight to the paradise of the afterlife?

"Luo Lin, what is this place?"

The Herrscher of Consciousness descended from the sky and looked around with interest: "I saw a huge object appear in the system space from above, and then I came over to take a look..."

"So, this is still in the system space... Then how can I get to the real paradise of the afterlife?"

Luo Lin looked around and finally fixed his sight on an iron door on the underground floor, below the transparent glass.

She had a feeling that it should be connected to the real Paradise reception room.

"Let's go to the real paradise."

Luo Lin grabbed Shibao's arm and pulled her to the iron gate. She reached out and touched the gate, and ripples spread out like water waves.

I can get there!

Luo Lin took a deep breath and rushed towards the door like Harry Potter rushing through the wall of King's Cross Station.

"Boom!"

Does it sound good? What sounds good is a good start.

Luo Lin covered her head with tears in her eyes. The Herrscher of Consciousness clicked her tongue twice and reached her hand through the portal. As expected, she touched another tightly closed iron door.

It turned out that the door opposite was not open.

"Hello? Is anyone there? Open the door, please..."

"Is this voice... Hua?"

Eden, who was tasting wine at the bar, was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked in the direction of the sound.

The struggle is over, and I don’t know when the review will end.

Volume 217: Galloping towards a new future: Chapter Chapter Paradise Loudspeaker

"Are you sure you can find someone by shouting like that?"

"I don't know, but let's try it anyway. Besides, the crisp sound you just bumped into was a little familiar. Could this door be made of soul steel?"

Eden stood in front of the iron gate on the underground floor, listening to two voices coming from behind the gate. One of them should be Hua, and the other was more unfamiliar.

"Dong dong."

The person behind the door knocked a few more times, as if analyzing the material of the door.

“Oh my god, it’s really soul steel?! Eden is so rich!” The strange girl exclaimed, “I remember this place was originally called the Golden Courtyard. It was Eden’s property, and later she took it out and transformed it into the Paradise of the Afterlife…”

"Please, Luo Lin, although Soul Steel was not a particularly rare thing in the previous era, it was not something that could be easily purchased in Eden at that time, right?"

——Indeed, soul steel is not something she can buy casually, but when Weiliwei was renovating this place, she held up the banner of "to make [Paradise] reliable and durable, we must use the best materials", and purchased a lot of soul steel from outside in one go, and replaced all the important places in [Paradise] from top to bottom.

Eden was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.

It seems that Hua brought a new visitor, and this visitor seems to know a lot about [Paradise of the Past]?

"What should we do? We can't just take out the [Skyfire Great Sword] and make a hole in it, right?"

The child named Luo Lin said hesitantly.

"Okay, Hua, wait a moment, I'll open the door for you."

The burgundy-haired woman was almost choked by Luo Lin's dangerous remarks. She quickly spoke out to show her presence and pressed the button next to the door to open it quickly.

No matter what, at least don't use the [Key of God] to poke the facilities of [Paradise]...

Luo Lin scratched his head: "Oh, there is someone in the reception room? I thought there was no one..."

Normally speaking, places like the reception room wouldn't have many people staying there. Just like the [Paradise of the Past] in the game Honkai Impact 3, where people would come on stage one after another, there would be people waiting to chat after a round of the paradise. The main reason was that the visitor was the Herrscher of Lightning, Raiden Mei, who was willing to help humanity.

The heroes were willing to come and see what this Herrscher looked like, wanting to understand her character. And Raiden Mei was also willing to talk to the heroes in order to find out why Kevin Kaslana in the real world sent her to the Paradise of the Afterlife.

Both directions went to belong to yes.

Luo Lin felt that the lounge was just an ordinary room. The heroes should also have their own territory in a data space like [Paradise], where they could do whatever they wanted and occasionally visit other people...

Along with the friction sound of the heavy soul steel door moving, the scenery behind it appeared in front of Eden - it was an empty corridor.

"Ugh?"

Eden became alert and a gun condensed out of thin air in her hand, but before she could raise her hand to aim at the empty corridor, a man in strange clothes appeared from the air with a girl.

"Uh...hi?"

Luo Lin shook her hands awkwardly, looked at Eden with a serious face, and aimed her pistol at the Herrscher of Consciousness next to her.

"You are not Hua, who are you?" Eden asked harshly.

"She is……"

Shibao didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem at all, and said with a smile: "As for me, I am the Herrscher of Knowledge."

The woman with wine-red hair narrowed her eyes. She could indeed feel a strong sense of oppression from this person who looked like Hua, and the Herrscher... did look like a Herrscher...

Luo Lin felt like she was almost out of breath. She was a weak and helpless B-rank logistics Valkyrie, sandwiched between the Herrscher of Consciousness who "could do anything" and the fourth of the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire, whose Eden was engraved with the name [Gold]...

"What did you do to Hua?"

"That old antique? Nothing happened."

Why do I feel like Shibao is provoking me?

The atmosphere became increasingly serious. Luo Lin could see the woman with burgundy hair gradually tightening her grip on the gun handle. A terrifying force was gathering in her body. Wow, she was going to [manually collapse] if she didn't agree with him?!

Come to think of it, while they were drinking wine and singing songs, suddenly the Herrscher came. I'm afraid Eden's mind was full of speculations like the current era has been conquered by the Herrscher of Consciousness?

Luo Lin looked at the half-smile on Shibao's face and felt that this guy was just bored and wanted to fight after seeing Fu Hua's old friend, to make friends through martial arts or something...

Luo Lin quickly stood between the two people who were confronting each other and shouted loudly: "Hey, hey, hey, you two, calm down, calm down!"

“Herrscher——!”

"You want to be with me...Wow! You..."

Luo Lin grabbed Shibao's wrist in the astonishment of her eyes and begged, "Shibao, don't... Even if you want to fight, this is not a place where you can let go, right?"

"...Then you have to calm Eden down. As for me...I don't really want to fight..."

Shibao blushed for some reason, coughed, and explained.

Luo Lin breathed a sigh of relief and returned her gaze to Eden.

"...You are Luo Lin, right? Can you explain what is going on?"

The woman with burgundy hair bit her lip, still holding the luxurious gun.

Luo Lin scratched his head, not knowing where to start for a moment.

"Well, if Alicia is here, maybe... Miss Eden, could you please send a message to Alicia? It would be easier to explain if she came over, and it would be easier for you to believe..."

"No."

Eden rejected Luo Lin's request with a brief and powerful sentence, and the black-haired girl looked helpless.

Luo Lin looked at the Herrscher of Knowledge next to him again. It seemed that the Herrscher of Knowledge did not feel that he was the "culprit" of the current situation. Instead, he had a trance-like expression and even rubbed his wrist, as if he regretted that they did not fight...

What should I do? How can I call Alicia to calm the situation?

Luo Lin's brain was working rapidly, and she turned her attention to the pink-haired character in the Valkyrie formation...

"Well, Miss Eden, I'm going to do something next. Don't be afraid. I don't mean to replace anyone. I am me, and Alicia is Alicia..."

Eden: “?”

Shibao seemed to realize what Luo Lin was trying to do and made an unhappy smacking sound.

In a flash of light, Luo Lin disappeared, replaced by a pink-haired figure that made Eden's eyes widen.

"…I think you look better the way you are now."

"Ahahaha... I'm just borrowing it..."

Without caring about Eden's reaction, Luo Lin's version of Alicia closed her eyes, and the power surged and condensed in her body, and finally condensed into a purple crystal flower in her hand. As it bloomed, it spread out invisible ripples -

【I'm here!】

"Ah! It's Luo Lin, she's here!"
