K424 of the Collapse World

The green-haired girl who had been staying at the workbench nodded and responded indifferently. Then, she turned her head and looked at the other idle white-haired girl beside Kiana, and raised her eyebrows.

"Ms. Diana, I suggest you take advantage of this rest. The subsequent work, which involves multiple ultra-long-range precision teleportations, requires you to be in the best condition to complete it."

"Eh... Actually, it's okay for me. It's not difficult for me to do it with my current power. I can still maintain my concentration. As for the energy consumed, Sister Kiana will help me replenish it..."

"Please go and rest, now."

"Oh well."

Under Iselin's inexplicably strong aura, Diana obediently went to the chair on the other side of the workbench.

Leaning on the mechanical work chair, the girl looked up at the sky that was perpendicular to the direction of gravity, and narrowed her eyes slightly at the world ring forged by countless world bubbles.

In fact, the reason why the World Ring is called the World Ring is that when observed from the inside, the arrangement of the world bubbles presents a ring-like shape, which is similar to the layered structure of an onion cross-section.

But in fact, its physical three-dimensional structure still belongs to the state of a planet, occupying the third orbit of the solar system. The thousands of world bubbles as basic units are tightly squeezed together like pomegranates, forming a slightly irregular abstract sphere.

After finishing their work, the girls rested in the gap of the outermost layer of the world ring. Although they were surrounded by the twinkling sea of ​​stars, they knew that this was not the universe outside the star track, but the "branches" connecting countless world bubbles after the formation of the world tree with reality as the axis - that is, the faults between the worlds. Although there was also chaotic radiation and zero-pressure space that was approximately equal to a vacuum environment, these faults were not really connected to the outside universe.

Moreover, the World Ring also has the outermost world bubble as the shell. Although, these outer worlds will soon become a veritable crystal shell structure, completely cutting off the world tree of the composite civilization from the outside of the universe...

The faint touch of the hair ends being gently stroked is different from the gentle touch of the radiating wind field in the space between the branches, which makes the space

The Herrscher's thoughts came to an abrupt halt.

The girl then realized that someone was standing next to her.

"......Um?"

She opened her eyes and saw the petite gray-haired girl sitting next to her.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Bronya greeted her casually. The girl temporarily removed the crimson skirt of her Herrscher form and returned to the brown dress she wore in the orphanage.

Not only Diana, but all the girls would take advantage of this short and precious time to relax a little.

"I just closed my eyes and rested... Come to think of it, you just projected my virtual image to all the marginal worlds. I'm afraid the energy you consumed was no less than mine, right?"

"This is nothing. It's just a simple mass illusion interference on basic intelligent life. It's even easier than the previous battle with the Herrscher of the Stone. Besides, Bronya doesn't have any tasks scheduled next, so she has plenty of time to fill the empty Houkai energy in the Herrscher's core."

"I see... But I'm the executor of the civilization transfer plan, and I'm afraid I won't have any chance to rest from now on."

Diana turned over and sat up from the flat mechanical recliner. The four ribbons on the skirt of her Herrscher attire swayed and spread out in all directions like an octopus stretching, lightly supporting the girl in mid-air, adjusting her sitting position to a comfortable position, and then falling back into the seat.

"By the way, Bronya, you suddenly came to my place. Is there something urgent?"

"It's nothing serious... It's just that Seele is chatting with her other self, and it's not convenient for Bronya to disturb them at this time..."

"Oh~ So you are so bored that you can only come to chat with me reluctantly."

Diana joked, looking into Bronya's slightly deep eyes. With her super intuition gained from her intelligence, she could easily tell that her friend was worried about something.

"Well, Bronya has nothing to do now. Until the transfer mission to the marginal civilization is completed, there will be no place to use Bronya's Herrscher ability. Although you can use the shuttle terminal to download games to kill time, you will definitely be scolded by Iselin for doing so. So... is there anything Diana needs to entrust Bronya to do?"

"Then...how about you braid my hair? Every time I activate Herrscher form, my hair becomes tangled instantly, and I have to waste a lot of time braiding it back afterwards. It's really troublesome..."

"Ah... But Bronya remembers that when Sister Cialis commented on Diana's hairstyle, she said that the Herrscher of the Sky form would look stupid with double braids."

"Eh!? That's an exaggerated statement..."

The corners of Diana's mouth twitched, but when she saw Bronya's dull look, the emotion that was originally intended to liven up the atmosphere calmed down.

It seemed that this Bronya had fallen into a state of distraction and awkward conversation, not knowing what to say. If she couldn't directly solve her inner troubles, no matter how many meaningless topics she talked about, it would be useless.

As Diana was thinking about it, the gray-haired girl next to her sighed with a sad look on her face again.

"Alas... First the consciousness lost control, and then its whereabouts became unknown. I don't know how Sister Shilis is doing now..."

"..."

"Ah! Sorry...Diana, I didn't mean to..."

"It doesn't matter. According to the information from the Bishop of Destiny, at least we can confirm that Sister Shilis is still alive. Although she is most likely fighting with the Herrscher of the End, if it is her... well! She will definitely be fine."

Diana waved her hand, then made a decision in her mind and took a deep breath.

The next moment, she stood up and rushed in front of the small gray-haired ball, staring straight into her eyes.

"Diana...?"

"So even the Ruler of the Heart can't solve his own troubles."

"Eh?! What are you......"

"Bronya, I'm not a very talkative person, but if you have something bothering you and don't want Seele to worry, you can just talk to me... Isn't that what friends are for?"

As she was saying the heartwarming words, Diana smiled wickedly, gently pushed the dazed Bronya onto the back of the chair without much effort, and pressed her down.

"Hehe... Since you took the initiative to find me and I found you on the spot, don't even think about running away~"

"..."

The girl struggled tentatively, but when she realized that Diana was not going to let her go easily, she finally started talking.

"Bronya is just... a little confused about the future."

Bronya's cold voice became much weaker. She subconsciously turned her eyes away, avoiding Diana's gaze.

"A few minutes after Otto created this new world, thirteen databases at Anti-Entropy Headquarters were abandoned one after another..."

"Bronya has seen those abandoned documents, which contain an analysis of the original world's collapsed environment and comprehensive geographical and cultural data of multiple regions, as well as some virtual

The environmental property survey reports of the anchor points were all very valuable data in the past. But now they have all lost their value, and even most long-term plans have become completely abandoned. I am afraid that other branches of the Destiny and the World Serpent are in the same situation, and even other worlds are the same as us... It can be said that we have gained and lost almost as much from the Quantum Sea. This world has stepped into an unprecedented unknown area. "

"Bronya, I don't know... If we continue down this road that has no end in sight, can we really get the results we want? A hodgepodge of civilizations without any foundation, facing the most dangerous situations without any countermeasures. The seemingly invincible Herrscher of the End, and the mastermind behind the collapse who is manipulating all of this, with the remnants of a civilization that has sunk countless times, how can we..."

But before Bronya could finish, Diana silenced her physically—not with a gentle citrus kick, but a headbutt to her head.

Boom!

"It hurts... Diana, what are you doing all of a sudden..."

"No need to say more, I already understand what you are worried about~"

The silver-haired girl nodded to herself, recalling her recent speech to countless worlds, and restrained her smile with a serious expression.

"Bronya is very smart. You often think more than Mei and I combined. Perhaps because of this, you think too much about random things and may end up getting yourself into trouble."

She looked at Bronya who seemed to be deep in thought, and tried hard to search for usable words in her mind to piece together the ideas she wanted to convey.

"How should I put it... Our generation has completely lost touch with the civilization of the past. The lessons learned from the Honkai disaster, the things we can see in the present world, and the relics left by our predecessors in the past are no longer of any reference value."

"But this is a war between civilization and the Herrscher of the End. It is precisely because we have come to a place farther away than everyone else that history can no longer be our guide. Just like when I copied Bronya's holiday homework, if one day I can write faster than Bronya, then I won't have to copy, and there will be no need to copy Bronya's homework, right?"

"No matter how bad the current situation is, in my opinion, it is better than the desperate struggle of our individual worlds. Besides, now is not the time for us to risk everything.

"Once we have overcome the final obstacle, we will have surpassed the limitations of the Honkai system and begun to challenge the chess master behind the scenes. So, this is the end, but also the beginning. There is still a long way to go in the future of this new world... We are still far from reaching the end of this battle."

(What the hell am I talking about...)

Looking at Bronya who remained silent, the silver-haired girl, knowing that she had not expressed herself clearly, gritted her teeth and continued to read out her speech.

“Bronya… don’t think too much, it will only add unnecessary pressure to yourself. You must know that there is nothing that we can’t do if we unite! Even if the Herrscher of the End comes again, we were able to stop her once before. Now we have become stronger with the fusion of the worlds, and there are so many powerful world bubbles fighting side by side. I dare say that even if it is the Herrscher of the End, I can beat her into a paramecium the next time we meet!”

"..."

"Um, Bronya..."

Looking at the silent gray-haired girl, just as Diana was wondering whether to say something else, that familiar cold voice sounded in her ears.

"As expected of Diana, the logic of her sentences is still as confusing as ever... But this time, Bronya understood what Diana wanted to say."

Pushing the bewildered silver-haired girl aside, Bronya stood up, jumped off the chair, and walked to the other side of the workbench as if nothing had happened.

Under the pressure of the survival of civilization, Bronya is a little confused, but she is not that fragile yet.

Rather than being confused, she just lacked a way to vent. Even if she didn't say it, she could quickly adjust her mindset. Seeing that Diana herself was still worried about the future and was still trying to comfort herself, Bronya couldn't bear to show that worried look again.

"Bronya..."

"Don't worry, Bronya won't let such a small thing get to her head. She just came here to avoid Seele worrying about her, but she didn't expect to be caught and lectured by the stupid Diana. This time, Bronya made a wrong choice and got embarrassed, but what's next -"

There was a smile in the gray-haired girl's eyes.

"If you don't want to be laughed at by Bronya, don't mess up the follow-up work of migrating the marginal civilization later..."

1027 Light and Dark

When the Honkai fission bomb fell into the myriad worlds, deep purple erosion lines spread between the cracks in the earth, gradually transforming the crustal material into crystals of Honkai-like materials, and causing the concentration of Honkai energy in the atmosphere to continue to rise.

"The star shell transformation device has been confirmed to be effective. The falling coordinate deviation value is ≤0.01. The current diffusion range is normal. There is no abnormal energy neutralization reaction..."

The space stations set up in the inner ring world bubble started

Operation, precious imaginary energy is maintained regardless of loss in the inter-space energy monitoring station. The countdown to the collapse experiment of the marginal civilization is passing by minute by minute. As the world rings that merge and share the time rules are integrated, the current time unit of each world has been established as the only standard by the Axis World Alliance, which is the West Sixth District Time in the middle of the earth - 10:43.

At the same time, people living on the edge of the World Ring, whose homes were about to become "star shells", could only watch the purple meteors falling from the inner ring bombard the uninhabited hillside wilderness, watching those purple waves gradually spread in all directions, hiding the dazzling star ring of the universe in the sky...

"The settlement observation point detected a collapse reaction and began to calculate the information of the individual individuals with collapsed genes in the Star Shell Civilization, and recorded it in the General Intelligence Bureau of the Alliance Public Conference Room "Haiyuan"."

The collapse has arrived - as the residents of the world bubble began to show varying degrees of collapse erosion reactions, the alliance's observation stations also began to use the super-civilization technology of the Void Wanzang to quickly collect this information accurate to the individual, upload it to the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Worlds Alliance in Haiyuan City, and under the witness of representatives from all walks of life, Iselin and her group who traveled to the fringe area received this individual coordinate information, and then, with the power of the Herrscher of the Void, transferred those unqualified people who showed rejection reactions to the safe zone in the inner ring of the world.

The inhabitants of the outer ring are unaware of all this, they are just waiting for the erosion to fall on their heads. The world on the edge does not have the power to shake the stars, nor the technology to trample on the laws at will. As the weakest civilization, it floats on the outermost layer of the world tree. The inner ring civilization is like the gods who make the rules, and the alliance's decision is no different from the oracle of the upper world.

They don't know how the alliance's plan has been modified and changed, nor do they know that the Outer Ring would have suffered a more tragic fate. Therefore, they will not be grateful to the alliance that accepted them, nor will they have a correct understanding and understanding of the collapse disaster. They know almost nothing and can only accept this future imposed by the outside world.

Just because everyone is forced to accept all of this does not mean that everyone is willing to accept it - although this is already the utmost mercy from kind people.

Most ordinary people gather in the open areas of the settlement, anxiously and numbly waiting for their own fate, but the appearances of all beings are destined to be different. The ruling class of some marginal worlds is dissatisfied with the fate of their own world and tries to contact the Alliance of All Worlds to renegotiate; the forces in the dark are out in full force, and anti-socialists who spread conspiracy theories are active in the streets and alleys; people who are afraid and desperate about the unknown collapse, trembling and holding the gun and pulling the trigger...

But no matter what, the result is already determined, and the fate of most mortals will not change.

Fortunately, the silver-haired girl who holds the power of space has already silently made a vow to save all the innocent people who have lost their homes.

However, the irony is that while the Herrs who fight for humanity are ready to go at the front line, the so-called alliance representatives under the abyss are urgently discussing the coordinates of the transfer of civilization. After all, not all world bubble authorities are willing to accept foreign civilizations, and world bubbles willing to accept marginal civilizations may not be approved by other representatives.

——In any case, the internal friction of the civilization of intelligent races is inevitable. And for these world bubbles that truly possess interstellar power, coercive measures are unlikely to be effective.

The members of the "Starship Hyperion" who first advocated a conciliatory policy have already stepped down from the main stage of the venue and watched the battle of wits and courage between these politicians from other worlds. The returnees of the Hyperion of Saint Freya, led by Theresa and Walter, are struggling to reconcile the alliance members, which have been a motley crowd so far...

Although Delta from the starship wanted to take out his greatsword and make a decision for them, Rita(?) stopped her - if no conclusion was reached, the Herrscher of the Void would choose to move the coordinates according to his own judgment, which was not what the representatives from all walks of life wanted to see.

1027 Light and Dark >>

Therefore, before the deadline for the execution of the plan, they will surely be able to put an end to this seemingly meaningless issue, but one that involves complex implications for the top leaders of various worlds.

In a corner under the platform, an inconspicuous short hacker quietly approached Rita(?).

"Rita, have you really decided?"

"Miss Brownie, what do you mean...?"

"Although that guy doesn't have much actual say, he is still our captain and nominal leader. Without getting his consent, you got involved in this mess and exposed Hyperion's existence to the public. If things go wrong, you should have a backup plan, right? Don't tell me that you made this decision in the heat of the moment..."

"The connection of the new world is a foregone conclusion. The union of civilizations is also the best measure to face the collapse. We have an obligation to facilitate the formation of the alliance. If that person is still with us at this moment, Miss Brownie, what decision do you think he can make?"

"That's right... that idiot always gets himself into trouble. If he were here, he would probably do something even more troublesome."

Thinking of someone she had lost contact with for a long time, the young hacker pulled at the edge of her hood in annoyance and stopped talking about this topic.

And she was ready to keep silent

Before leaving, Rita(?) behind him added another sentence.

"We, the crew members who have been wandering in the Quantum Sea, are not affiliated with any official world bubble organization of the Ring of All Worlds. Obviously, the Alliance of All Worlds needs a supervisory committee to review and make decisions, and in this situation, we, Hyperion, should be the most suitable candidates."

"Oh wow... I never thought that the witch from the lost world could still be compassionate... Did you think I would say that?"

The hacker paused but did not turn around.

"You are a wicked fellow who plays political games as a hobby. You have encountered this golden opportunity... I'm afraid you have been enjoying it from the beginning, right?"

·————————————·

Behind the podium, in the core area of ​​the Void Wanzang cross-civilization system, the blond man who remained calm and composed presented the next stage of the plan to the allies in front of him.

"...In other words, the developments so far are still within your expectations?"

"Ha... indeed, it can be said that, except for those insignificant details, the steps of the plan to maintain the survival of civilization are basically consistent with the plan blueprint I estimated before... If Miss Shilis is willing to take that step and start a war that lasts to the end of the one-dimensional universe in the form of the Herrscher of the End, this is a time span that no matter how large the four-dimensional civilization process is, it cannot span... Giving future generations almost unlimited time can be regarded as successfully winning the future for civilization, right?"

The blond man no longer acted pretentiously, and seemed to have a hint of sincerity, but Kevin could still see the part of him that he was trying to hide...

"But you're still hiding something."
