K424 of the Collapse World

"You also know that since the Herrscher of the End has used the Herrscher of Constraints in the space channel as a carrier to allow her true body to descend into this world, she must be able to break the shackles of the space gap and go directly to the real universe where the earth is located from the overlapping space created by Miss Xilin, and then perform the duties of the Herrscher and complete the reset of the era... Heh, we here cannot perceive the passage of time. Perhaps the earth in the outside world has long been stripped of the surface layer that hosts civilization and returned to its original state in the prehistoric period."

She spread her hands and walked to the edge of the top of the Star Tower. She looked down at the countless memory light balls that made up the Star Tower, and slowly leaned on the platform of the light wall with her chin in her hand.

"Moreover, it is too difficult for my current carrier to accurately obtain those parallel memories in the sea of ​​consciousness that span tens of millions of years. I am no longer a Constrained Lawman, and I no longer have Ji Xuanyuan's stigmata and the tempered k424 body. Now I am just a disabled soul living in a mass-produced defective replica. I rely on the knowledge of the law to manipulate a small amount of Honkai energy to take advantage of it, and I can barely maintain my existence in this law space of the Law of the End. I am not like the two of you - the perfect Herrscher of the Star Field, and the half-spirit with the split consciousness of the Constrained Lawman."

Miss Xilin, who had been watching the conversation between the two silently and had not joined in the conversation, was suddenly mentioned. Her scattered cross-shaped pupils refocused as she came back to her senses and looked at the silver-haired girl with her back to her. Her expression quietly became complicated.

"But this is just your guess, right? If... I mean if..."

"Mr. Lan Feng, I don't understand why you are so keen on being a savior of a terminal civilization. This world is nothing more than a reality of a game worldview for you, and it is completely different from the time and space you are in. And the reset of the era will not erase the non-material spiritual body. You can find a place to have a good sleep, wake up in the new era, and use the spiritual power of the half-lawsman body to take over the body of anyone at will, and restart a new life with cheats. Isn't this a good life that matches the identity of a time traveler?"

Looking at the frowning young soul, the girl closed her eyes. The more she admired and respected the former Lan Feng, the more she resisted the fake thing in front of her. The girl could not admit that an individual born from her own thoughts was her benefactor, nor could she consider the suggestions of the fake thing in front of her as Lan Feng's own suggestions just because they had similar thinking patterns.

That's enough. Well, whatever he says, just treat it as a bunch of nonsense.

(…Yes, I am tired of fighting. If I admit my defeat in the final desperate situation like this, and let this body perish along with the Lost Era, I will probably be able to comfortably obtain eternal peace, right?)

The instinctive desire to survive... It doesn't matter. After all, the outcome is doomed to fail. There is no need to put up unnecessary resistance and waste your energy...

Suddenly, the girl felt a hand gently on her shoulder, and the sticky feeling of imaginary energy of spatial nature appeared in the small airspace around her.

Ah... Celine, my little Celine~?

Without thinking, the girl raised her hand and placed it on the back of the other girl's hand, moving her small body and snuggling in the arms of the other girl.

It seems quite romantic to embrace each other and sink into the abyss of no return, doesn't it?

(Xilin... As a part of me, as another me in the past, I didn't expect that you would be by my side in the end. It's really fate. But it's better this way, so that I won't be too lonely and assimilated by the end, and it also saves Kiana and Diana from coming to die with me in this desolate star abyss. Their souls should be able to reincarnate into the next era, and should not be dissolved into the law of collapse in this place...)

(Although I am a little disappointed about the failure, and I am sorry for Xinghe's expectations of me, but thank you for staying with me until the last moment...)

............

.........

......

(Huh?! This is——)

The girl's hazy eyes suddenly opened in surprise. She clearly felt that the warm and sticky imaginary energy around her seemed to slowly seep into her body! Along with the dizzy and blurred feeling inside her mind, she felt a familiar and vivid consciousness that was cruelly decomposing her spiritual body, allowing the clear soul sediment that was dissociated to blend with the girl's consciousness.

"Celin! What are you doing?!"

She wanted to push away the purple-haired girl who was clinging to her, but

She was shocked to find that the space around her had been blocked by the power of the law. Relying on pseudo-power was not enough to eliminate it. The remaining time law in her body could not be activated according to her will...

The girl hurriedly resisted the energy flowing towards her, wanting to return the fragments of spiritual essence to Sirin, but she was unable to stop the other party from constantly shattering herself, causing the core Herrscher energy to become ownerless and free, and naturally merge into her body.

(Damn it! This idiot... Oh, right, the law of space... simulate the inverse operation of the law of space...)

"Don't worry, Shirley. Once you have completely integrated my soul and energy, the powers of these Herrschers will also be yours. After all, these things originally belonged to you~"

"What on earth do you... do you agree with that impostor's whimsical suggestion? Stop kidding, not to mention the possibility of my soul being repaired, if you keep tearing yourself apart like this... you will really die!"

The girl stared at Miss Xilin who was hugged by her, but she just smiled at her anger.

"To be honest, I had been planning to merge my consciousness with yours once everything was over. This was my promise to Bella, and it was also my duty to your friends... But now, since fusion can bring about a new turn of events, I will just fulfill my duty in advance and make the real "Cylis" complete."

"You... bastard! Do you really want to die? I still remember how unwilling you were to die in the second Honkai and how much you wanted to continue living. Is your brain broken? Now that you are free, don't you want to live?"

987 Return to One>>

"No, as an independent individual, Sirin, the Herrscher of the Sky, has committed an unforgivable sin. It is absolutely impossible for me to return to the civilized world as a human being. I no longer have the opportunity to seek forgiveness from those who died in the Second Collapse. As the little girl Sirin, I cannot forgive myself for what I did..."

Xilin said softly. As the energy decomposition intensified, her half-spiritual body of the Herrscher began to fluctuate unsteadily, like an unstable radio wave image. The girl saw this and was already tearing her eyes out, but she endured the pain of her soul being shattered and continued to speak calmly.

"......But, if I am a part of the past of "Cirris", a pure historical memory and genetic source, existing only in the past that has already vanished. Then, as the Herrscher of the Void, I can also accept my fate calmly. Besides, I was originally separated from you by the Herrscher of Constraints, just like Mr. Lan Feng over there, I am originally a part of you. "

"you......!"

The young man's soul remained silent, watching the two girls embracing each other gradually merge into one. He had imagined countless situations to persuade the girl's original soul who had lost her will, but he never expected that things would develop in this way...

It was actually Xilin, who was hostile to him, who took the initiative to break the deadlock of the girl's refusal to cooperate.

"I am a dead person. Unlike Cecilia, I have truly lost everything. Even my soul has become a part of someone else's consciousness. As long as I am still alive as an independent individual, you will never be able to recover your true self. Then, fusion is both the salvation of Shiris and Sirin. For the common wish of everyone, wouldn't it be great if I, a dead soul from the old times, can play a role in my surplus value~☆"

"But... I can't accept this! You killed yourself, turned yourself into a dead thing like memories and emotions and merged with me, fulfilling what you thought was your responsibility. What about me? Do I deserve to accept your damn emotions and die alone in the prison of the Law of the End?"

"You will definitely find a way out of this predicament. When it comes to analyzing and manipulating the power of laws, I have a very high opinion of you. A complete Shiris can do anything!"

"That's enough! I... don't want to lose you at all..."

The girl's cold exterior gradually peeled off, revealing the sorrow and fear from the bottom of her heart. She pleaded with tears to the purple-haired girl, whose face was fading, but her tears could not shake her resolute will.

At this time, the young man who was watching not far away finally made a decision. He walked towards the two girls and slowly extended his hand towards Shiris...

"Go away!"

The girl shouted angrily, swinging her fist to force the other party back, but the young man grabbed her wrist directly. The rough and thick skin touched the girl's slender fingers, and the "memories of the previous life" that briefly surged into her mind made her struggle freeze in an instant.

Then, some bright blue light particles began to emanate from the young man's soul, just like the spirit body that Xilin had decomposed, and flew towards the silver-haired girl along the touching palms of the two parties...

"I'm sorry... maybe this is our will that we have imposed on you, but you must change now. The savior of the world, Shilis... should never be so self-destructive."

"..."

The girl fell into a brief silence, looking at the

The young soul with a warm smile couldn't help biting his lips.

"You are the same... Why would you rather give up your life to change me? You are not the real Lan Feng, you are just a forgery with only his memories. You should be like him at the beginning, an indecisive and cowardly otaku. Why do you have to imitate those bastards to be a hero? Is self-satisfaction so important?!"

——A loser like me...is obviously not worthy of you guys...

"Indeed, I have not really experienced your adventures, nor did I save you when you collapsed. All I have are some false memories that do not belong to me. But no matter what, I am also "Lan Feng" born from your memories. Think about it, what kind of image do you have of Lan Feng in your own mind?"

"..."

Looking at the girl with wide eyes, a smug smile appeared on the young man's face.

"That's right! In your heart, Lan Feng is your hero, and even the most noble and great person in this world. Although I am not really that person, I was born with this impression of you, so how could I become a cowardly and humble time traveler?"

Hearing this, the silver-haired girl subconsciously wanted to refute, but she had no idea how to start.

At this point, she knew she could no longer stop these two stubborn people, but the growing resistance and worry in her heart forced her to ask the two people in front of her again...

"I... still don't understand. Is this world so important to you? The Herrscher who was killed by humans, the alien souls who mistakenly entered the world of Honkai, the survival of this civilized era, obviously have nothing to do with you..."

——Even if I have to save her, it’s something I should bear alone, and I don’t care about it now…

"Fool, because Shiris's wish to save the world was inherited by our split consciousness. And now, those beautiful wishes that you have lost will soon be remembered by you again."

"Hehe~ It doesn't matter if you don't understand now. I just don't know how you will feel when you think back to your current self in a few minutes."

The tranquility of her heart was completely broken, and the emotions of a mortal became more and more obvious in her mind. Although something was missing, it was impossible for her to return to her previous negative state.

But the more this happened, the girl's heart gradually softened, and she became more and more resistant to the scene before her.

——I hate separation. It doesn’t matter what I become, but I don’t want to see others disappear...

"But if I lose you, if I lose all of you, I...if I can't find a way to leave here, or if I still can't stop the judgment of the Herrscher of the End, and become a lonely soldier abandoned by the world, then I..."

"Don't be afraid, believe in yourself, just as we all believe in you."

"Yeah~ Don't worry, we are the same person. In just a little while, our trust will turn into your self-confidence, and then you won't have to be afraid of anything!☆"

Xilin and Lan Feng smiled at each other. Their faces were so dim that they could not be seen clearly. They continued to encourage the girl softly. However, the girl could not tell whether these vague voices came from the mouths of these two figures or were the remaining echoes in her heart...

(—— Civilization should keep moving forward, rather than being held back by the cycle imposed by external things. The infinite future of mankind should not be forever confined to the fish tank of God... Even if it is really just a story, it should not end in this way.)

(——Our will will always be with you, and this is your own will. The end of the world will not come, right? I’ll have to trouble you to take us to see the future of this world~☆)

"I......"

The voices in her ears had completely disappeared. Standing on the top of the high tower in the starry sky, the girl, who had found herself alone without knowing when, stared at the two rays of light in the distance that had returned to the galaxy, and she was already crying.

"I...promise you..."

“The world we love will not stop here!”

988 The Truth About Gods

The distance to the sky never gets shorter.

When she realized this, Kiana knew that it was probably too late for her to take any action.

She rushed straight into the sky from the ruins of the Anti-Entropy Headquarters. With the propulsion of her own powerful Herrscher energy conversion, she could reach the outer ring of the atmosphere, let alone the space around the exosphere. Even if she went straight to the moon like Diana, it would not take her more than a few minutes at her maximum speed.

That's right, after escaping from the quarantine zone released by the unknown entity, Kiana rushed towards the Herrscher of the End outside the sky. And more than five minutes had passed while she was speeding towards the outside of the universe.

Because she was eager to get to the Herrscher of the End who looked like Shirley, she had been speeding up madly with energy overload for the past five minutes. She only noticed something was wrong when she began to gasp for breath.

With an average flight speed of over Mach 10 and continuous short-distance space movement to assist acceleration, the distance she traveled must have been

It has exceeded the height of the outermost layer of the atmosphere.

But how long has it been since this picture of the night sky painted with the aurora before our eyes changed?

It shouldn't be like this.

Looking at the starry sky scene that never changed, the girl slowly stopped her flying body and closed her eyes...

"...Is that really the case?"

She could still see the bright and eye-catching galaxy embedded in the dark universe, shining with the light source from nowhere, presenting the most suitable picture of "starry sky" in her vision, even though she had closed her eyes.

Is it that my perception ability is disrupted, or is it that my consciousness has directly left my body and been taken somewhere else?

Kiana felt her body, and apart from the strange scene in front of her, there was nothing abnormal. The flow of Honkai energy in her body, the consumption of power to fly at high speed, and even the scars left by the battle with the Herrscher of Corrosion not long ago, the area around the wounds was still aching...

Wait, wounds left by the Herrscher of Corrosion?

Even if he forgot to use his ability to repair himself, the recovery power of his Herrscher's body should be enough to assimilate and repair the erosion marks left by a dead Herrscher for such a long time? Why would a minor injury from a few hours ago still remain on his body?

Kiana frowned as she looked at the shallow, almost invisible scratch on her wrist.

Is it because the rules of the space that traps oneself are different from those of the real world?

Or, from that moment on, I fell into some kind of undetectable trap...? !

The girl suddenly turned around and looked back along the path she had taken, but what she saw was not the blue planet, but only the endless black universe.

There was not even the light of a star.

Regardless of where the Earth went, there was the dazzling brilliance of the Milky Way ahead, but behind was a pitch-black horizon with nothing in it. Was he standing right in front of the center of a black hole?

Who is it?

How long are you going to play with me?

The anxious worry and unknown fear gradually subsided in this absolutely silent universe. The girl took a deep breath and opened her eyes again.

She wants to activate her strongest pseudo-power and tear open a huge rift of dimensional collapse in this universe that she is not sure whether it is an illusion or a space of creation!

Perhaps the structure here is the same as the previous law domain, which can completely limit the power of Honkai and leave her helpless. However, what if it is not just the power of the K-0 experiment, but another real law power?

The specially made armored wrist guard suddenly unfolded, and crimson crystals were embedded in her upper wrist, which was covered with lava cracks. This was a secret she had never told anyone else...

She had secretly intercepted a small part of the core left behind by the defeated Herrscher of Fire and hid it inside her Valkyrie armor wristband. She only needed to send a small command, and the implant device she had modified without authorization would implant the core fragment into her skin like a syringe.

The Herrscher cores were mostly irregular multifaceted crystals, and they themselves might have some unstable properties, such as missing a corner or an extra section, which were basically difficult to detect before the senior staff of the research institute took over.

This is a trump card Kiana left for herself, and also her last choice.

She would combine the rules of the world she controlled with the laws of the core of fire. What kind of wonderful reaction would it produce if she used her manipulation skills that could trigger nuclear fission with just a drop of water and combined it with the law that could destroy everything and even melt space?

"Right now... eh?!"

However, the series of actions that were planned to be performed after opening her eyes were stuck at the first step due to the scene that Kiana saw when she opened her eyes.

"This is......"

When she reopened her eyes, the fake starry sky no longer existed, and even the boundary spaces that resembled the universe were no longer as dim as before.

988 The Truth About Gods>>

This is a magnificent palace with a unique and magnificent shape. Eight tall pillars support the vast rectangular space. The brilliant white dome has fourteen familiar engraved reliefs lined up from front to back.

And these were just what Kiana saw from the corner of her eye, information she instantly obtained with her super processing ability. At this moment, what really attracted her attention was just a very simple thing.

Is this... a mirror?

Looking at the silver-haired girl who looked exactly like herself in the translucent frame in front of her, Kiana frowned slightly and slowly stretched out her hand to touch the mirror. Sure enough, the silver-haired girl in the mirror made the same move, using the inverted image of the same hand to overlap her five fingers.

Mirror? But even if it was still a fake space, why put such an inappropriate mirror in the middle of the auditorium?

The burning pain on the back of her hand stimulated Kiana's spirit, making her stay alert as much as possible. She observed all the images in the mirror, spread her perception energy, and carefully analyzed the surrounding structures.
