The collapse started when Kiana came to the door

Anyway, for the captain, traveling through time and worlds was not something that was impossible from the beginning. No matter which world he was in, he could freely go to another world.

In this case, if the captain wants to save others, Kiana can lend him her power without hesitation.

But the next moment after Kiana made this decision, she suddenly froze.

"...Kiana?" Looking at Kiana [Herser of the Fire] who seemed to have suddenly turned to stone, Yulandel asked uneasily, "You are still..."

Before Yulandel could finish her suggestion, Kiana interrupted her at a loss.

"Uh, hug, hug... Sorry, Yulandel, I, I, I suddenly remembered that I have some urgent things to do! I may not be able to train with you next time!" Feeling the strange power that she had never felt before, but instinctively understanding what would happen next, in Yulandel's gaze full of doubts and confusion, Kiana [Hersher of the Fire] broke open the door in a panic and fled from her room.

"If anyone asks me where I've been, tell them not to worry about me! I'll be back soon!"

After Kiana broke through the door, her panicked pleading voice could be heard from afar.

"Wait! Kiana! Are you going to-"

After hearing these words, Yulandel finally realized that something was wrong and hurriedly chased after him.

But after chasing out of the room, Kiana had already disappeared.

The corridor fell into complete silence, echoing with the last word of Yulandel's question, which was full of confusion, bewilderment, and inexplicability.

"……where?"

at the same time.

Eigenworld, January 2014, 1, 8pm London time.

Above the Thames, Kiana [Sky Ranger], who was about to coordinate with another self to drive the power of the power of the void in an attempt to teleport the Hyperion directly to St. Freya's Academy, suddenly stopped what she was doing.

She turned her head and looked at the stunned look of the Herrscher of the Fire beside her. She was a little surprised: "What's wrong? Aren't you going to teleport the Hyperion to the captain's side?"

"..."

no respond.

"Hmm?" [Sky Ranger] frowned slightly and stretched out his hand to wave in front of the eyes of his other self.

"..."

Still no response.

"Hey! Come back to your senses!"

"Wow!" Because he was caught in a strange situation, his shoulder was suddenly hit by [Sky Ranger] without any preparation. [Hersher of the Fire] shuddered all over and almost jumped up, "What's wrong?"

As a result, even [Sky Ranger] was shocked by the violent reaction of [Herrserker of the Fire].

"What's wrong? I was just about to ask you what's wrong with you?" [Sky Ranger] patted his chest in shock, "Didn't you just say that you would use the power of the sky to teleport the Hyperion to St. Freya's College where the captain is? Why are you suddenly in a daze?"

“Eh?” [Hersher of the Fire] turned his head and looked at the person who spoke with an obviously confused look.

Then, after seeing [Sky Ranger]'s face, she was stunned again.

"You...who are you?"

"..." [Sky Ranger] suddenly showed a speechless expression. She rolled her eyes and a few black lines hung down her forehead (=_=|||), "Did you not sleep well last night? How can you ask such a question? Who else can I be? Of course I am Kiana."

Hearing [Sky Ranger]'s self-righteous answer, [Hersher of the Fire] almost instinctively wanted to refute, what a joke, you are Kiana, then who am I?

However, the rebuttal suddenly got stuck.

"Uh...right! That's right!" After forcing the question back into his stomach, [Hersher of Fire] scratched his head and laughed a few times, "You are Kiana, and I am also Kiana. Why would I ask such a stupid question?"

“…” Was this guy’s brain burned out by her own flames?

Looking at the strange look of [Herrserker of Fire] in front of him, [Sky Ranger] could not help but remain silent.

"Do you remember what we are going to do?" she asked tentatively after a moment's silence.

"I remember, of course I remember! How could I forget!" [Herrscher of Fire] nodded hurriedly and smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, I don't know why my mind was a little confused just now, and I was distracted for a moment."

"Are you really okay?" [Sky Ranger] frowned, looking suspicious.

"It's okay! Look!" Following this assertion, [Herrscher of Fire] snapped his fingers coolly.

At her command, a huge space crack appeared out of nowhere and instantly swallowed up the Hyperion from the outside.

The entire Hyperion was enveloped in a pitch-black scene like ink.

Of course, for space travel, it doesn't take much time to cross the thousands of kilometers from London to the Far East. Soon, the scene outside the bridge changed abruptly from the port city plunged into darkness to the clouds above the early morning.

“Isn’t it just a matter of sending the Hyperion to the captain?” After easily teleporting the Hyperion to the sky above St. Freya Academy, [Hersher of the Fire] smiled brightly and said in an extremely decisive tone, “How could I forget such an important thing! Don’t you agree?”

"So what did you do just now?" [Sky Ranger] asked

"I was just distracted for a moment!"

There is absolutely no problem! That's it! [Herrscher of the Fire] insisted with a firm attitude.

"...Okay." Seeing that [Herrscher of the Fire] really remembered everything, [Sky Ranger] was too lazy to ask any more questions.

During this whole time, a curtain of light suddenly unfolded in front of the two Kianas in the bridge.

"You two did a great job." The person who had contacted them remotely was Theresa. At the moment, she seemed to be quickly following Guanxing and several other members of Hyperion to a certain target location. "Since we have successfully teleported the Hyperion to the airspace of Saint Freya in this world, you should come along!"

[Herrscher of the Fire] and [Sky Ranger] looked at each other, then at the screen floating in the air above the bridge, and asked at the same time: "Come together? Aunt, where do you want us to go?"

"Military Situation Room." Theresa said succinctly, "Before I asked you to come to the bridge and used the power of the void to teleport the Hyperion to Saint Freya in this world, the bridge had actually issued an order for the Valkyries to attack. If we calculated the time correctly, the captain, Alicia, Yulandel, and Xiaozhi, the four attack personnel, should be almost back. If you can make it, come and help us block them."

"Of course we can make it!" [Sky Ranger] and [Herrscher of the Fire] said in unison, "We'll be there soon!"

While opening the space rift with [Sky Ranger], [Herrser of the Fire] suddenly felt a little amused.

Just now, I was envious of Kiana from another world who was able to get help from Captain Li Shubai so early, but in the blink of an eye, I found that compared to that Kiana, I had already become his crew member.

This made [Herrscher of Fire] feel both amused and sad, and at the same time he couldn't help but marvel at the magic of time.

Also, it turns out that the members who went out this time are the captain, Alicia, Yulandel and Xiaozhi?

In other words, it seems that it was this mission that allowed me, [Herrscher of the Fire], to become a member of Hyperion?

It's really...amazing.

With this thought in mind, [Herrscher of the Fire] arrived at the door of the military intelligence room with the main force.

Volume 5: Hyperion: The Captain Has a Date with His Ship

Chapter 4: The Intercepted Time Travel (k)

Outside the door of the military intelligence room, all the crew members of the Hyperion, led by Guanxing and Theresa, gathered here.

The Herrscher of Fire and Flame, who came here with another person, was swallowed up by the huge flow of people before she could react. Although with their skills and discipline, they would naturally keep a certain distance from each other even if it was crowded, but now it was obvious that no one was paying attention to this.

Guanxing, who was at the top of the group, took a deep breath, then raised his hand and opened the door of the military situation room.

But after the door of the military intelligence room was opened, everyone outside was stunned.

The Herrscher of Fire immediately poked his head into the military intelligence room, looked around, and then asked the three girls standing in the military intelligence room the question that everyone wanted to ask: "Wait, where's the captain?"

"Hmm..." Perhaps because they had just experienced time travel, the Herrscher of Consciousness, Yulandel and Alicia, who were standing in the center of the military intelligence room, all looked unhappy.

Yulandel, whose body was filled with the power of the World Bubble, was the first to come to her senses. She shook her head and looked around while answering the words of the Herrscher of the Fire, "Captain? Isn't he right there..."

Halfway through her speech, Yulandel stopped abruptly.

"Huh? What's wrong? The captain is not..." The second person to come to her senses was Alicia. After hearing Yulandel's strange pause, she raised her head and looked around, and then she was stuck like Yulandel.

After being stunned for a long while, Alysia and Yulandel raised their heads together, looking at each other in bewilderment with the people who were blocking the door of the military intelligence room, and then asked in unison: "Where is our captain?"

"Tsk, was that guy's doing?" Just when everyone was at a loss as to what to do about the fact that [Li Shubai is missing], the Herrscher of Consciousness, who had already used the power of consciousness to force himself to calm down his thoughts, suddenly let out a low groan of extreme dissatisfaction.

"Xiao Shi, what is going on?" Fu Hua [Yun Mo Dan Xin] frowned slightly.

"Who knows." The Herrscher of Consciousness had a gloomy expression. "I just felt that when the four of us were traveling through time and space, a strange consciousness suddenly intervened. That guy, like the captain, seemed to have some kind of power that could interfere with time. If that power hadn't condensed the time of its appearance to a singularity where even consciousness interference couldn't work, the guy who forcibly intervened in the time travel wouldn't have been able to escape so easily under my nose."

"Damn it..." Perhaps because he felt extremely frustrated and annoyed at having Li Shubai snatched away from him without any resistance, the Herrscher of Consciousness pounded the wall of the military intelligence room with his fists, with an almost crazy murderous intent brewing in his pupils.

Not only the Herrscher of Consciousness, but also Alicia and Yulandel's faces suddenly became uglier than ever after hearing the Herrscher of Consciousness's low voice of narration.

Although they could tell from the words of the Herrscher of Knowledge that the being who forcibly intervened in their ongoing time travel and quietly took Li Shubai away was a pure consciousness, it was understandable that they could not detect such a thing when they were traveling through time, as their perception abilities were already weakened.

But no matter what, they, the strongest Valkyrie in the contemporary civilization era and the second-ranked hero in the previous civilization era, could not even detect the slightest abnormality, which made them feel extremely frustrated and sad, and they could not help but begin to curse their own incompetence.

"Time manipulation...?" But just before this heavy and depressing atmosphere was about to permeate everyone's emotions, a young voice mixed with hesitation and rationality suddenly broke the boundless silence, "Could it be... her?"

After hearing the childish voice that did not lose its composure because of Li Shubai's disappearance, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly turned their heads to stare at Guanxing's face.

"Did you and the captain plan this incident together?" [Twilight Knight] Theresa's voice was terribly low. She narrowed her eyes and bent her knees slightly, as if she was ready to subdue Guanxing at any time.

Facing the Twilight Knight's cold gaze, Guanxing simply glanced back at her calmly, and then dispelled her doubts with words full of resentment like a grudge woman: "Do you think that during this time when the captain has not returned, I still have the opportunity to communicate with the captain?"

"...Then why do you know who took the captain away?" After a moment's silence, Twilight Knight asked a question that puzzled everyone.

"First of all, I am just guessing, not being certain." Guan Xing rubbed his brows, "...and if it is really the person I think of, even if I have to suspect, I should suspect you since you have the closest relationship with that person."

"Ah?" Twilight Knight was stunned. She frowned and searched her memory carefully. "Are you kidding me?"

“I’m not kidding.” Guan Xing said calmly, “Possessing the ability to interfere with time, and being a pure consciousness… The only person who meets both of these conditions is the artificial intelligence on board the Hyperion that originally belonged to you.”

"You mean... Ai-chan?" Twilight Knight was stunned, "When did she gain the ability to manipulate time?"

"Who knows." Guan Xing covered his face with a feather fan and narrowed his eyes slightly. "However, if it is really her, maybe this time, we may need to borrow your power in this world."

Just as the people on the Hyperion in the Eigenworld decided on their next course of action.

On the other side, in a world bubble in the quantum sea.

Li Shubai stood on the bridge of the Hyperion and looked out the window. He raised his palms to support his brows, not knowing what words to use to describe the powerlessness and shit he felt in his heart.

The bustling city sinking into the night is full of tall buildings. Several-story-high advertising screens are clinging to the edge of the towering commercial buildings. The huge advertising screens are glowing with blue light in the rolling pictures. A blond man who is very familiar to Li Shubai is working hard on the screen to promote a silver-haired idol who is also very familiar to him. The maglev train on the viaduct is speeding between the buildings with a low sound of wind. Pedestrians and vehicles are crowded in the downtown streets. The street lights on the roadside, the windows of tall buildings, and the neon lights in front of the shops are shining brightly.

It was above this unreal prosperous city that the gigantic Hyperion was hovering in mid-air with its optical camouflage system activated.

After escaping from reality for half a minute, Li Shubai lowered his hands from his face, his words filled with frustration: "So, why did I suddenly appear here with the Hyperion after ending my interference in the future?"

"Because after a long journey, our lovely Brownie wants to return to the city and world where she was born and spend some time with her old friends and family." A mature female voice that Li Shubai had never heard before answered him, "You know, although she is a child who can't sit still, no matter how energetic she is, she still needs to rest sometimes, so I chose the Sky Dome Room as her base for this period of time, so that--"

"If you don't understand what I want to ask, then I'll be frank. This is not the answer I want." Li Shubai turned his head and stared at the woman with two hollow cabbages on her head with a calm gaze. "After returning to the military intelligence room of the Hyperion from the future world, not only did Alicia and the others who were supposed to follow me disappear, but even the location of the Hyperion inexplicably became the Sky City in the world bubble. On the way from the military intelligence room to the bridge, I didn't even see a single person except you."

"Plus, if I remember correctly, the Hyperion that belongs to me should not be equipped with the artificial intelligence system named Ai-Hyperion." He tensed his muscles and looked at the smiling mature woman calmly and indifferently. "In summary, this Hyperion is not the one I own. So, back to the original question-"

"——Why didn't I return to my Hyperion, but appeared in this city with you? Besides, who are you?"

Although, whether it was the main storyline world he had just interfered with or the eigenworld, the Hyperion in both worlds possessed an autonomous artificial intelligence named Ai Hyperion, Li Shubai knew very well that the Hyperion he owned was the only exception.

The reason is very simple. Even though the appearance looks exactly the same, the Hyperion he owns, which can sail freely in the gap between the worlds, is completely different from the Hyperion built by Tianming, both in essence and in function.

"Well, although I want the captain not to be so hostile to me, given the captain's personality, I won't be able to gain your trust if I don't explain everything in detail." The mature blonde woman raised her finger and gently tapped her cheek. She narrowed her eyes slightly, pretending to be thinking, and then suddenly smiled. "If you insist on making an analogy, it's just like what the captain did to that child Kiana not long ago?"

"What I did to that child Kiana..." Li Shubai frowned deeply, "...you might as well explain it more clearly."

"You should understand the abilities you have as a captain." Ai said with a smile, "When the [Captain] and the [Valkyrie] both recognize each other, at that moment, she will be logged into the Hyperion's list as a [crew member]. While enjoying her privileges, she will also be forcibly transferred to the Hyperion's reception hall when she is first entered into the list."

"...So what?" After a moment's silence, Li Shubai had to admit that the other party was right and asked back.

"As a time traveler who is very familiar with them, you will instinctively identify them as your own crew members in your subconscious mind." Aiyi pointed at Li Shubai's forehead, "Your idea is equivalent to opening a special channel for them to join the Hyperion. Of course, if it is only your unilateral identification, it will not allow them to join the Hyperion directly. But if the other party also has the idea of ​​[hoping to join the Hyperion] or [hoping to get the captain's help]... Even if neither of you has really discussed the matter of joining the ship, the relationship between [crew members] and [captain] will naturally link you to each other."

"...I see. So, this is why after I approved Velvet's application to bring her memory into the ship, her body naturally entered the Hyperion?" Li Shubai frowned. "But what does this have to do with Kiana?"

"That's because you don't know that after you finished interfering with the future, in addition to Velvi, there were two other Valkyries... or Herrschers? They also joined your Hyperion unconsciously." Ai Yi spread her hands, with a mature yet gentle face, showing a rather helpless expression, "For example, Miss Alicia, who has the dual identities of a hero and a Herrscher, and for example... the Herrscher of Fire, Kiana Kaslana."

"... I can understand Alicia, but Kiana from that world also came to my ship?" Li Shubai frowned, "Where is the evidence? Not to mention that my Hyperion already has a Firefly... a Herrscher of the Fire, there should be no reason for Kiana from that world to insist on joining the Hyperion, right?"

"Whether she has a reason to join the Hyperion is not up to you, Captain." Ai Yi smiled and blinked her eyes gently. "As for the evidence... If I say that I saw it with my own eyes, will you believe me?"

"Seen it with my own eyes?" Li Shubai's pupils slightly dilated. "You mean, you have been monitoring us since I went to that world?"

"It's not that serious." Ai shook her head. "Strictly speaking, although I know most of the things that happened at that time just like you, and I have even experienced them myself, after you stepped into the game as a [chess piece], the story that you changed is no longer something I have experienced personally. Aside from Miss Kiana, whom I saw with my own eyes, whether it's Alicia or Velvet, I know that they will join your ship, but it's just a reasonable guess based on my understanding of you."

"...Except for Kiana?" Li Shubai asked, "In other words, you arrived in that world after we all left?"

Chapter 4: Stealing Love Sauce (k)

"To be exact, I arrived at that world just before you were about to leave, when the Captain and Kevin were conducting experiments on the power of the end." Ai Yi smiled and shook her head. "To put it in a language that the Captain can understand--"

"——When Kevin took over part of the power of the End, the Stigmata Project of that world was also completed. Outside the Earth... that is, the space outside the atmosphere, an extremely complex pseudo-time crystal was constructed at the moment the Stigmata Project was completed." Ai stuck out her tongue, and her mature and dignified face showed a playful expression. "Although for the people of that world, the outer space of the Earth being covered by pseudo-time crystals means that they have lost the possibility of leaving the surface by conventional means, but for a life like me who originally lived in the time crystal, the completion of the Stigmata Project also gave me the basic conditions to reach that point in time."
