The collapse started when Kiana came to the door

Chapter 4: The binary opposition between work and vacation (k)

An example that is completely opposite to Qianjie is Alicia.

Although from the perspective of "talent", the Thirteen Heroes of the former civilization have already stepped into the category of non-humans, but even a "born wise man" like Mobius still came into this world through the reproductive system of humans on Earth and through the reproductive behavior of humans to reproduce offspring.

Therefore, whether it is a warrior like Kevin, whose physical ability is even stronger than steel; or doctors like MEI, Mobius, and Velvi, whose IQ is above that of ordinary people; or a super-powered person like Aponia, who has extraordinary talents - even if they are biologically out of the category of "human beings", from a taxonomic point of view, they are still "Earthlings."

Among the Thirteen Heroes, there are only two who are truly "non-human". One is Qianjie who descended from the sky, and the other is Alishia who is also similar to falling from the sky.

But even the two of them, on a subtle level, are two completely different beings.

First of all, although Alicia is a Herrscher, her body is no different from that of an ordinary person.

Usually, the body of a Herrscher transformed from a human will completely transform into another creature the moment it becomes a Herrscher.

Most of these changes will not directly affect the appearance of the Herrscher, but will only be revealed after the Herrscher's body is dissected.

But in special circumstances, there are also cases where humans' appearances were changed after they were transformed into Herrschers - such as the pair of devil horns of the Herrscher of Lightning, Raiden Mei, the wings possessed by some Herrschers, and the pair of fox ears displayed by Yaezakura, the Pseudo-Herscher.

However, unlike these Herrschers who were "transformed from humans", the Herrschers who were not transformed from humans but came directly into the world all have bodies that are completely indistinguishable from humans.

This is true whether it is Alicia in the previous civilization era or Walter Joyce in the current civilization era.

Although the latter was determined to be a Herrscher by the Destiny at an early stage, the basis for Destiny's determination that he was a Herrscher was not the biological data obtained through a physical examination of Walter Joyce.

Whether in the pre-civilization era or the current civilization era, when Alicia and Walter Joyce were examined physically, no trace of the "Herrser" was found on them.

The so-called Herrscher Core is a "fixed point" projected into the real world by the power of the "cocoon". Most Herrscher Cores cannot be generated out of thin air. They must use humans as carriers to be condensed in the human body in the form of "organs".

On the other hand, Alicia and Walter Joyce, who were born on their own without any carrier, are two absolute outliers even among all the Herrschers.

However, since the source of all the collapse on Earth - the "Cocoon of the End" is actually just a destiny machine created by an alien civilization, then as long as the operating mechanism of the "Cocoon" can be fully understood and controlled, the Hyperion can use artificial means to actively project the two existences of "Alisa" and "Walter Joyce" into the real world.

After all, since the "Cocoon" is a mechanism, the Herrscher's Advent is a program in this mechanism, and the birth of Alicia is a bug in the Herrscher's Advent program. As long as the principle and prerequisites are understood, it is not too difficult to reproduce this bug.

In this sense, if the energy allows and the power share is sufficient, Li Shubai and Kiana can even achieve large-scale mass production of these two special beings, Alicia and Walter Joyce.

——Of course, the existing "Ends" are not the kind of people with bad tastes. The assembly-line-scale mass production of Alicia and Walter Joyce... Although it doesn't sound like a bad thing for human society, when it comes to the field of life creation, both Li Shubai and Kiana instinctively developed a slight resistance to the behavior of taking advantage of this bug.

Therefore, even though Li Shubai and his team could use the power of "cocoon" to create Alicia and Walter Joyce out of thin air, after a long period of discussion, they ultimately did not use such means to create a second Walter Joyce.

Why is it said that Alicia is the opposite of Qianjie? This is the reason.

——Although Li Shubai and his team cannot replicate Qianjie’s fall, with the arrival of Alicia, they can really reproduce this phenomenon.

Originally, Li Shubai wondered whether this act of recreating "Alisa's Arrival" might be a bit too inappropriate.

He once thought whether it would be better to let Alicia and Qianjie do the same, and directly send the two "real bodies" on the Hyperion into this world after the time in this world reaches a specific point in time.

But for some reason, neither [True Self: Herrscher of Man] nor [Miss Pink Fairy] seemed to have any resistance to "copying another Alicia".

After creating this new world that belonged only to the pre-civilization era, Li Shubai classified all the members originally belonging to this world in great detail, and based on this classification, he treated the humans in this world in completely different ways.

As for most of the ordinary people who died 50,000 years ago, he let nature take its course and did not interfere with their souls and wills.

After all, for ordinary people, "death" is not really a good memory.

From a certain perspective, although a brand new past was "created", even Li Shubai did not actually "resurrect" all the people from 50,000 years ago.

As for the Thirteen Heroes and those who were relatively close to them, Li Shubai had already quietly planted the souls captured by the soul-catching network into their different bodies before their consciousness as human beings was born.

By this means he preserved the "uniqueness" of these people.

Therefore, even if Kevin and the others suddenly awakened their past memories, "themselves in this world" would still be "themselves" and would not develop phenomena such as split personality, nor would they doubt their own existence because of the restoration of their memories.

In their eyes, there is no difference between themselves in "this world" and themselves in "that world".

It's just that they lived a peaceful and happy life when most of their memories had not yet returned.

...Having said that, after the two completely different experiences were combined into one, their personalities and ways of doing things were more or less affected.

For example, Kevin has completely become a henpecked husband.

For example, Dr. MEI has become more dignified because of his experience in leading humans.

For example,

——Because she obtained a large amount of cutting-edge technology that did not belong to this world, Vivi began to completely let herself go.

At the same moment Eden notified himself of his private jet.

The Aloha State is nineteen time zones away from the Golden Courtyard.

At nine thirty-five in the morning, the bright sunshine shone the golden coastline, the broad leaves of the coconut trees were emerald green, and the oncoming sea breeze mixed with the cries of seagulls was refreshing.

...if it weren't for the annoying and harsh noise of the drilling machine.

"Why did things turn out like this?" Li Shubai asked subconsciously.

Because the sound of the drilling machine was too harsh, he did not expect that his words would be answered by others.

But he obviously overlooked the fact that the people present were no ordinary people.

Even in such a noisy environment, it was not difficult for Kiana, Mei Raiden and Bronya, three excellent fighters who had even fought Kevin head-on, to distinguish his voice.

"Didn't you come here on your own initiative?"

As a mixed gaze of doubt and dissatisfaction pierced from the side, a crisp voice spoke unhappily.

The person who spoke was Kiana.

"No, although it is true that I am the one who is coming——"

Li Shubai looked around with a helpless look.

"But I came here as a tourist, why did I end up working for someone else?"

Although within this area of ​​50 meters from the coastline, the beach and ocean exposed to the sun look quite beautiful.

But once you exceed the range of fifty meters and look inland, the scene immediately changes from a 5A-level scenic spot to an extremely messy construction site.

Half-built amusement facilities rose from the ground, and the piercing noise of the drilling machine almost penetrated Li Shubai's eardrums. In the middle of it, he, who was wearing beach pants, and Kiana, who was also wearing a swimsuit, wore yellow helmets and stood like fools under the scorching sun.

"Regarding this question, I think you should ask Wei Liwei over there."

Mei Raiden walked past Li Shubai with a pair of long white legs and an expressionless face.

"As a captain, you failed to manage your subordinates and even became their subordinates inexplicably. I think this is your unshirkable responsibility."

"..."

The sight is so piercing.

Feeling the scrutinizing and questioning gazes of Raiden Mei and Kiana, Li Shubai turned his eyes away with a stiff expression.

At this moment, Wei Liwei's extremely penetrating voice suddenly came out from the radio.

"Safety lies in carefulness! Accidents are caused by carelessness! The construction site is a battlefield! Only protection can lead to complete victory!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

The three people wearing swimsuits and yellow helmets fell silent at the same time.

Mei Raiden raised her hand slightly and covered her forehead with her hands, unable to bear the sight.

"Well... But that person is Wei Wei after all. I can understand why you would neglect management."

"Thank you for your understanding."

Li Shubai sighed and said slowly.

Come to think of it... Why on earth was he tricked by Wei Erwei into coming to the construction site? He couldn't help but start to recall -

Whether it was the replication of the planet or the transfer of will and organisms, it was successfully completed without much resistance.

After copying the planet, Li Shubai and Lost Rosemary and others completely blocked the space near the "clone earth" into a holy scar space that simulated the earth's environment.

By this means, he simulated the sunrise and moonset, the ebb and flow of the tide, and at the same time - exhausted more than half of the energy stored on the Hyperion at an extremely fast speed.

In order to prevent the Hyperion from falling into the dilemma of energy shortage, he and the members affiliated with the Hyperion adopted a rotation system to allow qualified members to continuously maintain the normal operation of the Stigmata space, and use the characteristics of that space to gradually guide the orbit of the cloned earth to the same orbit as the earth.

At the same time, to be on the safe side, the members who were replaced will not return to the Hyperion, but will come to this "clone Earth" while resting and monitor any movement of this new world with their own eyes.

So far...although we have encountered some difficulties, overall, these so-called difficulties are still within the scope of what can be solved.

However, after Li Shubai himself came to this cloned Earth, things began to develop strangely.

The speed of time flowing inside the Holy Mark Space is about ten times faster than that of the outside world. Therefore, although this world has gone through more than twenty years from the advent of the Ruler of Reason to being reset by the Ruler of the End, only about two years have passed in the original world.

Because of the time difference between the two sides, most of the Hyperion members see this world as a place where they can take a long vacation. Although the purpose of coming to this world is to "maintain the stable development of the world", to be honest, the development trajectory of this world is much more stable than they initially expected.

After escaping the threat of the end of the world, this world, which already had many talented people and was quite prosperous, showed a peaceful and happy appearance.

Most people who came to this world had a very high opinion of it. Although they had lost the power beyond common sense, it was clear that for most people, the disappearance of "Honkai" had only benefits and no disadvantages.

After watching the development of this world in the past twenty years, the Valkyries of the Original World suddenly felt more and more disgusted with "Honkai Impact" and the "Cocoon" that brought about the Honkai Impact.

Based on these high evaluations, Li Shubai actually had high expectations for this world before coming here.

Although he has always emphasized that he is only responsible for the collapse, after all, the birth of this world was also caused by him. Seeing the world he created thriving, Li Shubai always feels somewhat gratified.

As he was feeling relieved, Kiana, who had teamed up with him to come to this world, suddenly won a prize in a store promotion.

Chapter 4: The Three Xu Family in Dihua (k)

For most people in this world, winning the first prize in a lottery can be considered a blessing.

But for Kiana, a seal who was favored by the goddess of luck, this was not something that was worth surprising her at all.

It should be stated in advance that although Kiana and the others following Li Shubai can barely be considered members of the Hyperion, they have only joined the Hyperion not long ago and do not actually have much personal feelings for this aerospace ship that spans time and space.

As for Captain Li Shubai, they can regard him as an excellent leader and are willing to follow his instructions and orders within a reasonable scope to the best of their ability.

But the difference from several other peers is that, at least at this point in time, none of them is prepared to get involved in the captain's messy love life.

Based on this idea, even after joining the Hyperion, he put considerable effort into Li Shubai's plan during this year.

However, apart from this kind of official business, the three Herrscher ladies who had just joined the Hyperion had not even been alone with the captain.

Kiana and the others are very satisfied with this situation.

After all, no matter how messy the captain's love life is, as long as it has no impact on them, they will naturally not comment on the captain's love life.

It is true that out of sight, out of mind.

But such a life of out of sight and out of mind doesn't seem to last long.

——In fact, the reason why they followed the captain to this reshaped pre-civilization era was because the three of them had been avoiding the captain intentionally or unintentionally.

Apart from matters involving principles, the rules set by Hyperion are actually quite loose.

The Valkyrie who joins the Hyperion does not lose the freedom to make her own choices.

If a special situation occurs, the Valkyrie belonging to the Hyperion can even temporarily borrow all the power of the Hyperion from Li Shubai.

After working together for a year, Kiana and the other two fully realized this truth.

Therefore, even though they avoided the captain intentionally or unintentionally, from beginning to end, the three powerful Herrschers never thought of canceling their crew status.

However, just as the original intention of establishing the rules was, no matter how loose the rules are, there are a few principles that everyone on the Hyperion must abide by.

- First of all, any member of the Hyperion is not allowed to defect from the Hyperion once they cancel their status as a crew member.

Although joining the Hyperion is not difficult, the reason why these Valkyries can easily join the Hyperion is that Li Shubai, the captain, has a deep enough understanding of them.

The captain believed in their character and trusted their code of conduct, and therefore believed that these Valkyries would never betray him.

However, the captain's unilateral understanding of them does not mean that these Valkyries have established an absolute trust relationship with each other.

——Therefore, based on the simple idea of ​​"not wanting anyone to betray the captain's trust", the Valkyries affiliated with Hyperion will review all new members.

Of course, up to now, the captain's vision has never been wrong, so this review work has begun to become loose as the number of members increased.

After all, most of the members who could join the Hyperion were their own peers. Even if there were slight differences in their behavior and personality, they were essentially the same.

However, the fact that the rules have become loose does not mean that the regulation has been abandoned.

Therefore, even though Li Shubai himself was not clear about this review mechanism, if someone wanted to use this review mechanism to do something, no other Valkyrie would have any objection.
