K424 of the Collapse World

Pseudo-creative power, activate...

397 Evacuation

A figure hiding in the street corner was holding a terminal, looking at everything that was happening not far away with a dull look on his face. At this moment, he was only a few hundred meters away from the front battlefield of the Herrscher and the army. At this distance, he could see everything that was happening over there with his naked eyes...

As an agent in an informed organization, he was naturally familiar with the term Herrscher. However, most people only knew about it in theory, and this agent was no exception. But now, instead of books and slides, the mobile natural disaster produced by the extreme performance of Honkai actually appeared before his eyes!

"...Before the day of judgment comes, I will not allow you sinners to return to peace so easily!"

Following the declaration of the silver-haired Herrscher, what happened next made the man's eyes widen! The golden spear of light that destroyed everything had completely stopped, and the pure white light particles that replaced it formed feathers of light in the air, slowly falling on the bodies of those seriously injured and dead. Then, the man saw with his own eyes that the bodies that were torn apart by the beam of light actually began to reorganize and regenerate after the penetration of the feathers of light. The destroyed flesh and bones were completely repaired at the genetic level under the filling of energy. Soon, except for the not-so-serious injured, even the pieces of flesh were pieced together into human forms again...

“Ah——! Eh?! What’s wrong with me?”

"I'm not dead? But, I was clearly hit by a beam of light..."

"I've lost too much blood. The conscripts must help stop the bleeding quickly. If this continues, the wound will...! Eh? Where's my wound?"

"..."

Putting aside those soldiers who haven't figured out the situation yet, the agents who witnessed it all have already firmly believed in the conclusion in their hearts!

(That’s right! That must be… that must be a true Herrscher! Apart from the gods, only the messengers of the gods can do such a thing as resurrecting the dead…!)

The man's eyes were suddenly filled with astonishment. As a staunch materialist in science, he could not find any principle to explain what was happening before his eyes. In the end, he could only use this reason as an explanation...

Although it looked very shocking, in fact, what Shiris had just done was far from resurrecting the dead. It was just reassembling those broken bodies in time.

Even if their heads were pierced by the beam, within a few seconds, as long as the body cells that were not completely dead were reassembled and completely repaired, for these people, it was just like walking through the gates of hell and coming back intact...

However, no one could remain calm in such an extreme situation and analyze the possibility of such a fact. Driven by the remaining rationality and sense of mission in his heart, the man did not kneel down to the "angel" wrapped in light, but tremblingly raised the terminal in his hand, wanting to record everything he saw...

The golden light screen that prevented the terminal from starting up just now has disappeared. Picking up the terminal that was reconnected to the headquarters, the man just pointed the recording light screen towards the direction of the "angel" when his wrist was suddenly controlled by a huge force!

The man was shocked, and before he could react, his right hand holding the terminal was twisted behind his back, and the terminal in his hand was almost taken away at the same time.

Coming back to his senses from his previous distraction, he hurriedly tried to break free from the person who was holding him, but the big hand was like cast iron and could not be shaken at all.

"Ugh! Who...?!"

"Hey, candid photography is not a

Good habit, sir."

A deep middle-aged male voice sounded behind him. Without giving the agent a chance to draw his gun, the man simply pressed his neck and threw him to the ground!

The man gasped as his body hit the hard ground. He felt as if his whole body was falling apart. His left hand, which had been placed in his arms, fell limply, apparently dislocated in the collision.

"Actually, for something as minor as secretly filming, I can just leave it to the police. There's no need for me to stop it myself. But if the person being secretly filmed is my wife, then the situation is a different matter."

“Wife? You said that Herrscher is your wife? What nonsense are you talking about, you lunatic?! Enough, since she is not from the local military, let me go immediately, otherwise I…!”

--Snapped!

A punch hit the agent's head, and the man immediately rolled his eyes and fainted. The white-haired man looked at the terminal with a flashing communication screen in his hand, chuckled, threw it on the ground and crushed it, then stood where the agent was just now, looking at the silver-haired girl surrounded by light in the air, and the smile on his mouth became subtle.

"I don't know why you went to so much trouble, but you actually dared to do such an outrageous thing in the city. You are really worthy of me..."

Siegfried smiled bitterly and sighed. He could tell that the silver-haired girl was not controlled by Honkai. If not, there would be no need for her to go to the trouble of rescuing those people.

(Still the same as you were before...)

After a slight hesitation, the man turned and left the block, slowly turning into another alley next to it.

"Well, it's up to you. I just hope those people won't be tortured too badly by you. Before we meet up, let me get rid of those damn paparazzi first..."

Siegfried clenched his fists and began to move towards the next hiding spot marked on the terminal.

(The existence of Honkai has been exposed, and the situation in the world may change... Never mind. These future events have nothing to do with me. Let's deal with the current affairs seriously. Hmm... Members of a no-name organization dare to secretly take pictures of my wife? It seems that I have to teach you a lesson...)

The area around the cleared block, except for the building where the bar was located, had become a barren, charred land. The buildings that had originally stood on the ground had been literally razed to the ground by the Herrscher's Light Spear.

The silver-haired girl was still floating in the sky, with six dazzling golden wings, as bright as a second sun. The girl surrounded by the wings was still so holy and flawless. She held the spear of light in one hand and pointed it at the ground. Her eyes, which were full of arrogance and kindness, were exactly the same as those of a true god.

397 Evacuation >>

(Ouch... so embarrassing...)

However, although it looked so imposing, the person was not willing to do such a gesture. In fact, Shilis was already a little stiff. If she was walking, I'm afraid she would have walked with her hands and feet together. Fortunately, the wings behind her were only shadows, otherwise what would be displayed in front of everyone would be six wings that were stretched to the point of being completely straight.

However, the golden light concealed her unnatural expression and stiff movements, and she didn't reveal anything. However, Shilis had more serious problems. After all, the psychological barriers of the self are not so easy to overcome.

Just being watched by many people will make you feel nervous instinctively. But if you force yourself to suppress this nervousness, you will unconsciously develop an arrogance that regards life as worthless, just like the second collapse more than a decade ago...

(Tsk...! If I lose control because of something like this, I'll be useless... Don't think about it. Once the situation stabilizes, I'll take Kiana and the others away...)

"Although rebirth after conviction can wash away your sins, this is far from enough! There is no possibility of forgiveness for filthy humans. When the last day comes, the omniscient and omnipotent God will grant you an equal death..."

Shiris spoke loudly again, and the slightly trembling soft voice, after being enhanced by the Honkai energy, once again turned into the same majestic roar that resounded through the sky as before.

"..."

Hearing Shirley's voice, the soldiers below looked up dully, and hundreds of them all remained in deathly silence. Most people retained the memories that were instantly restored when they were near death, especially those who had been "resurrected". The shock and fear of this had been completely engraved in the depths of their hearts... Now, facing the girl who claimed to be a messenger of God, they no longer had the courage to fight against her. Even if a few people still had fighting spirit, almost all of their weapons and equipment were destroyed in the rain of light. Even if they wanted to launch an attack, they had no way to reach the girl in the sky...

In the silence of the scene, no one noticed that some soldiers looked at the lawyer.

A hint of hidden enthusiasm began to appear in the eyes of the young girl...

"God...?"

Even Shirley herself was not aware of this, she just felt a certain gaze that made her feel cold...

She suppressed the entire army alone, without causing any deaths to the enemy, and resurrected all the seriously injured and dead. This power, which could be called a miracle, had shocked all the witnesses. But for Shiris, it was almost no pressure at all.

The Herrscher was a being that could fight the entire world on its own, so it was not a difficult task for her to manipulate a small country. If she had not used up most of her mental energy to consolidate the chains that bound Fenrir, the end of this farce would have been even simpler. She could have directly deployed the restraining chains to tie up all the hundreds of people, and she would not have to worry about accidental injuries, and she could have solved the problem.

"The announcement of God's will has ended. Now... sinners! In the last time you have left, repent of your sins. When you face the judgment, it will be the day of your true redemption!"

Leaving these words behind, the golden wings of light around the girl slowly spread out, gradually becoming brighter and brighter. After the wings of light spread out, the suppression of the energy device took effect again, and this time the scope of influence was even more exaggerated, even most of the city outside the quarantine area was affected. The street lights went out at the same time, and the brightly lit high-rise building suddenly went dark, and the only light source around was Shirley's wings of light...

At the same time, Shirley's figure became blurred. In the strong light, it was impossible to see where she was.

After a while, the phantom of the light and wings began to shrink rapidly, dim, and then completely disappear. Within just a few seconds, the night sky returned to darkness, and the figure of the Herrscher girl disappeared as well.

When everyone's attention was drawn to the light wings, no one noticed that several shadows flashed out of the back window of the hotel. Under the cover of night, they crossed the nearby ruined streets at an astonishing speed and entered the dark edge of the city without attracting anyone's attention...

Government District...

An old man stood at the dim window, looking at the sky outside which was gradually turning pale, with an indifferent expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"This world is about to start to become unstable..."

He muttered to himself. Suddenly, as a light flashed in the distant building, the old man's eyes fixed and he walked out of his office quickly.

“Has the city’s power been restored?”

"Yes, Mr. Li, the city's electricity has begun to recover gradually, and the collapse reaction has disappeared. The military has stopped the search and is now retreating."

The man in the suit who was asked answered respectfully. His attitude was enough to tell the old man's identity. After hearing this, the old man was silent for a while, and then asked the second question.

"Casualty ratio... no, what is the loss of our army?"

"this......"

"Just tell me, Speaker."

Seeing the man's subtle reaction, the old man frowned and his heart sank. However, he quickly adjusted his mentality and asked again in a deep voice.

No matter how tragic the outcome of the battle with the Herrscher is, he must face it all.

"Yes, apart from the civilian casualties that have not yet been counted, the number of losses of our military is... zero."

"What did you say?! Zero? Ahem...!"

The old man's eyes widened instantly, and he gasped in shock, coughing so hard that he almost couldn't breathe.

"How is this possible? How could our army suffer zero losses when it was completely covered by a strategic-level attack of that scale?"

He could see the rain of light that illuminated the sky even from a distance of tens of kilometers. How could the army possibly withstand such an attack that was powerful enough to destroy everything...

"Regarding this, Mr. President...According to the oral testimony of the military personnel present at the time, the girl who was identified as the Herrscher explained her actions in this way..."

398 Return to Saint Freya

One day in September 2014, something happened that shocked the whole world and shook humanity's inherent understanding of this planet.

Human beings are a race based on material civilization. Although there are many people who believe in the highest virtues, after emerging from the ignorant feudal society, there are only a few of them left in the entire modern civilization.

The existence of collapse is controlled by a few people. The vast majority of people in society have never been exposed to supernatural phenomena. The progress of material civilization has made these people look down on those illusory beliefs and increasingly abandon useless gods. After all, from ancient times to the present, all the viewpoints and theories in idealism have never had a truly reasonable explanation. Compared with such ethereal things that cannot be proven to exist, the foundation of human survival is ultimately those material things. Pious beliefs cannot fill the stomach, and the existence of gods will not save the world from disasters. Although this has been explained in various religious and cultural works,

But a product of delusion that has no real significance for the development of civilization will eventually be completely eliminated one day in the future...

This is how it should be.

However, when a certain being descended on Singapore as a messenger of God and announced the destruction of the world, the trajectory of the future was completely disrupted.

In the surrounding area where the "Angel" was, all electronic communication equipment within a certain range had unexplained malfunctions. Therefore, except for those agents who had been prepared, all the images and pictures that captured that scene came from high-rise buildings far away, so they only got the general outline of the "Angel" and could not see the details of its appearance.

The complete picture obtained by those agents will not appear in the headlines of world news. Moreover, most of the agents nearby were knocked down by a strange white-haired man and destroyed the recorded images in the communication. However, there are still many organizations that know the full picture of the 11th Ruler...

For ordinary people, this is the first time they have been so close to the truth of the world except for the second collapse. However, if they want to go a step further and make all the truth of the collapse known to the world, this level is obviously far from enough. Under the joint regulation of most informed organizations and the United Nations, as well as the fabrications of various self-media, the spread of accurate information has been suppressed within the Asia-Pacific region. Some countries that are too far away still don’t know whether this incident is a rumor or a real thing...

"Hey, Shirley, what were you thinking at that time? Would you mind talking to us for a moment?"

"Frei, I've only been back for less than two hours and I haven't even changed my clothes yet. Can't you let me rest for a while? Besides, things haven't been dealt with yet..."

"Huh? Do you think it's so tiring to chat with me? Answer my questions quickly, or I'll connect you to the Moonlight Throne's experimental coil!"

On the upper floor of the central office building of St. Freya Academy, the red-haired girl holding the terminal said dissatisfiedly, then sat down at the desk, looked at the silver-haired girl opposite with a distressed face, and spread the terminal in her hand in front of the girl.

"Shock! A real angel descended on Singapore to announce the oracle. Her true identity is actually...!"

"Singapore: This happened yesterday, and 99% of people don't know about it!"

"Regarding the truth of the 923 incident, the Singaporean government's rumor-busting statement is full of loopholes. The United Nations has forcibly intervened in the country to launch an investigation. Netizens: Well done!"

"The voice of the oracle lady is so beautiful! I can listen to it on repeat for three years..."

"..."

Although they are all related to the Singapore incident, most of them are fabricated by self-media, and there are also a lot of junk news that are just trying to attract attention.

Looking at those familiar headlines, the corners of Hillis' mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but recall the days when she used to use the terminal to read Shenzhou News when she was bored while working at Tesla's company. She looked at Tesla helplessly and was about to say something. At this time, another cold girl's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"The unspoken rule within the organization is to hide the truth about Honkai from the outside world. This is the first time in thousands of years that Honkai has been made public so clearly. Shiris, this is no joke. Tell us, why did you make such a plan at the time? In my impression, you should not be such a reckless person..."

(Unfortunately, I am indeed a reckless person...)

Unaware of what Hillary was complaining about, the blue-haired girl, who was originally standing next to Tesla, now walked towards Hillary and gently tapped the table in front of the silver-haired girl with her finger.

"Could it be that this is a secret plan jointly planned by you, the leader, and the Destiny Organization? I think that as core members of the Anti-Entropy Organization, we should have an obligation to know the truth here."

Facing these two scientists who were confronting her, Shirley lowered her head helplessly, wondering how to deal with their questions. Until now, she still did not intend to let others get to know the truth about the collapse of this world. Shirley knew very well what enemy she was facing. In the near future, when she was fighting against the real enemy, she did not want to involve these important people...

As long as we are not implicated by future events, it doesn’t matter even if we gradually become distant.

"No... It was because I was cornered by those troops during the mission. I had no choice but to attack them. That's why I chose to attack them as a Herrscher. In this way, I could easily defeat those troops with the power of Houkai without violating international conventions and then leave. Otherwise, you would probably have to see me in the special prison in Singapore."

"So, what does your declaration mean? Even if you want to show it to the public as an unknown identity, there is no need to reveal so much information about the Honkai, right? Because of your indescribable actions, a lot of cult organizations have emerged in the world overnight, and the propaganda pictures are very similar to your Herrscher form. This is yours in any way.

Is that a mistake? "

"This... Ahahaha~~ The situation was not urgent at the time, I just spoke out of my feelings, but I didn't expect it to have such serious consequences..."

Looking at the two young scientists who were questioning her one after another, Silis suddenly felt a great deal of pressure. However, it had been a long time since she had talked to such a familiar partner, so she couldn't help but smile with relief.

"For this kind of thing, you can just ask the leader directly. Mr. Walter is my immediate superior. If there are things he is unwilling to tell you, how can I dare to disclose them casually?"

Without hesitation, she threw the blame on Walter who was busy improving the Moonlight Throne. She stretched her neck and planned to run away as soon as possible. But as soon as she stood up, Einstein next to her raised his hand and pushed her back to the chair.

“…Huh?”

"We have already negotiated with the leader. In fact, it was he who asked us to question you. The leader said that Miss Hillis is closer to the two of us, so he thinks it is most appropriate for you to explain everything. In addition, he also said that no matter how much information you reveal to us, he will not pursue it."

"That's right! So, Shirley, don't even think about running away this time. Tell me everything you know! What did you see in the ruins of Jiuyou? Why did you help Otto? What are you three planning? Tell me the truth. Otherwise, today I will let you see how powerful Dr. Tesla is!"

Tesla quickly came over from the other side to block Hillis's escape route. With a grim smile on his face, he approached the girl, raised his hand to grab the girl's right arm, and pressed it against the armrest of the chair. It seemed that if he didn't get the answer he wanted today, he would never let go...

After a few symbolic struggles, Shirley looked helplessly at the red-haired girl in front of her who was acting like a rogue, her watery eyes wide open.

"Wu... Frey, do you still want to do that to me? I'm obviously not a loli anymore, and you still want to do that to me? Are you tired of Theresa? Or is it because your sexual taste has changed..."

"Don't interrupt! At this point, don't even think about using that rumor to stop me. So what if you're a perverted lolita? Call me whatever you want, I don't care! I just want to know what exactly you're hiding from us!"

398 Return to Saint Freya>>

"..."

Tesla's desperate look made Hillis open her eyes slightly. However, in response to the girl's question, she just bit her lip and said nothing.
