K424 of the Collapse World

In theory, Zhongyan's mind can restrain all manifestations of emotional out-of-control, but now Tiana subjectively wants to promote the outburst of her own emotions.

Listening to the uncontrolled roar, the girl on the other side sighed softly.

"Tiana, this is how the world is. You won't get satisfactory results just because you put in effort. And I didn't become this mentally ill by my own will."

"Why..."

"Why so many whys... I should have explained it very clearly. A soul that cannot be eternal will inevitably deteriorate in the wear and tear of reincarnation. Or let's put it this way, feelings have no priority, do you understand now?"

During the conversation, the girl was still sorting out her thoughts, accurately collecting and summarizing the information she had recorded over the long years, without a trace of confusion in her eyes from beginning to end.

"After regaining my true form, I realized that there is no difference between the souls of false gods and mortals. I am the same person as Lilith and I am the same person as Shilis. There is no distinction between you and them in terms of status."

"I don't believe it..."

"Is it time to stop venting your emotions? Even if you only rely on the End Herrscher's instinctive ability to analyze information, you should understand what state I am in now as I stand before you."

1044 One side gives in >>

"..."

Tiana quickly calmed down by subjectively stopping the disorder of emotional factors.

"...but I just can't accept that at all."

——Although she controlled her scattered emotions, her vision was still filled with confusion.

"Can't accept it? Then fulfill your duty as a Houkai Messenger and destroy me, the traitor. Maybe you can get a satisfactory ending while destroying civilization."

Maintaining the release of the power of the end, the girl hooked her finger at Tiana.

"I believe you can also find that the Constraint Herrscher consciousness that occupied K424's body before is probably the soul fragment closest to pure Lilith. She will choose to help you without hesitation and give everything for your plan. It is precisely because she is the dominant consciousness of Lilith and regards you as her only beloved person. Otherwise, a normal Herrscher personality born from Honkai will not help you do those trivial things that have nothing to do with the destruction of the world."

"But she is still incomplete. Besides, she has merged with you and become the only complete Lilith..."

"That's why I said, give you a chance to change the ending."

"..."

Tiana was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent.

She naturally realized what the girl was expressing.

"Well, if you want a 'Sister Lilith' who only loves you, then come and fight me quickly, try to defeat me, tear me apart, and separate my complete soul into Shilis and Lilith. This way you can get the fragment that is closest to Lilith's personality."

"...Do not."

Without even thinking, Tiana shook her head.

"It's meaningless to regard a fragment as the real Sister Lilith, which is just deceiving oneself..."

"But you can't accept me as I am now, right? You are still controlled by the Observer, so you want to use me as an experimental tool for higher-dimensional civilizations. But I want to protect the current civilized world and let the human race continue. This is an irreconcilable contradiction. Unless one side chooses to give in, our positions will be completely opposite."

"Give up, Sister Lilith. You can't hold on. Even if you are out of the control of the pseudo-Houkai system, you can't fight against the powerful enemies in higher dimensions!"

"Even so, I won't change my mind."

"..."

Tiana took a deep breath, and the gap in the space was followed by a longer period of silence.

——How cunning.

(You know very well that I can't hurt you at all...)

The only time he hurt Lilith was to protect her and prevent her from being directly wiped out by high-dimensional observers. He restrained her and put her soul into a reset reincarnation.

(Well, it’s time to admit my true feelings)

She closed her eyes gently.

No matter what she becomes, there is no doubt that the girl in front of him is the familiar sister Lilith.

Whether it's her stubborn temper or her obsession with saving civilization, these are what Lilith should have been like before.

The only difference is that I have become less important in her eyes...

——Moreover, compared to the time they were together, the light in her soul now that she has been reborn seems to have become even brighter.

It doesn’t matter, it’s enough… I’ve clearly fulfilled my wish to see her again, so why do I have to stand on both ends of the conflict?

(Although there are some flaws, my wish has indeed been fulfilled, so...)

"——I won't fight with you, Sister Lilith."

1045 The Secret of the Moon

The encounter in the World Ring has already come to an end.

The divine corpse without its core collapsed like a fragile sand castle. Under the golden dust were countless starship wreckages. After various explosions and burnings, the pitch-black scrap metal could no longer emit light. It filled up half of the gap in the airspace, almost blocking the faint light column of the World Ring connecting to the Void Tree.

The casualties were heavy, but victory was in sight.

From the moment Tiana's incarnation left the real material world, the split individuals of the divine body lost the supply of the original laws, degenerated into a collapse corresponding to the strength of civilization, and were subsequently eliminated one by one by the powerful united army.

At this moment, only the final endgame remains.

......burn off——!

The flaming sword cut off the head of the last divine skeleton, and the rolling flames rushed through the broken cracks; the next moment, the torrent of energy penetrated the thick star shell.

Heavy armor was hurled at almost the same time as the light beam, and the golden heavy lance fell like a meteor, instantly shattering the exposed imaginary core and deciding the outcome of the battle.

The black and gold stellar body of the god gradually disintegrated. Diana swung the sword horizontally, dispersing the huge energized sword body of the Godly Sword, and put the heavy sword back into the quantum storage terminal.

Turning around, in the seemingly infinite gap in the air, one can see countless Alliance spaceships emitting star-like lights, embellishing the dim universe inside the World Ring.

With the enhanced perception of a Herrscher, the girl could see Kiana, who looked a little depressed, in the distance, and Yulandel, who was slightly below her, breathing slightly while holding the Star-piercing Spear.

Expanding her perception further, she also resonated with the Herrscher energy of her former companions.

Not one less, very good.

It seems that this time the joint attack was a perfect success thanks to the tacit understanding on the spot, and no casualties were caused by the Herrschers who were the main attackers.

"It should be over...for now."

The girl muttered to herself, touching Kiana's shoulder with her extended mental power as a small greeting.

Then, the girl, who had severely overdrawn her strength, swayed and fell from the gradually collapsing huge divine skeleton. Before falling into the void, she fell into a warm embrace...

·————————————·

"...Did you see that? We won. We defeated the vanguard of the Honkai. They can't stop us from moving forward! Now and in the future!!"

The subhuman general with fangs and claws roared loudly, and his soldiers echoed his roar, issuing a victory cry that shook the galaxy.

Although sound cannot be transmitted in the world's ring airspace, their voices can be heard in many adjacent fleets through inter-fleet communications, infecting some soldiers with excitement and cheering for the hard-earned victory.

Even if they come from different civilizations and races, even if they have different blood flowing in their veins, they can become comrades-in-arms because of a common goal and share the joy of victory with each other...

However, the brief celebration soon ended, and the front and rear of the United Army once again restored iron-clad order.

After all, the soldiers all knew that the mission of the expeditionary force was to go to the outside of the star ring and build the first line of defense of the world ring. However, this strategic goal had not yet been achieved. It was only a small wave of sudden attacks by the Honkai Envoys that were defeated. Naturally, no one would think that this was the final victory.

[Operation continues——Strategic goal: Unite with outer civilizations to establish the initial line of defense]

Indeed, behind the victory, there are many puzzling doubts. For example, those unidentified divine corpses were originally extremely strong, but suddenly their strength dropped sharply as if they were leaking air. What is the reason?

The technicians in charge of observation racked their brains but could not figure out the reason for the downgrade of the Divine Relics. How could the soldiers on the front battlefield know the truth of the attack?

But now, to the civilized masses of the World Ring, this is no longer important.

Because this victory is not fake, people will always believe what they want to believe. No matter how strange the doubts are, as long as someone is willing, there will always be countless explanations for the problem.

Perhaps those divine corpses can only explode for a short time? Perhaps the long tug-of-war has exhausted their energy storage? Perhaps the upper echelons have used some secret weapons to destroy their regeneration ability?

The part of the truth that could not be made public and was only known by a few Herrscher girls destined the warriors to use all the reasons they could think of to explain this victory.

1045 The Secret of the Moon >>

What the ordinary soldiers saw was that thousands of civilized races united, relying on endless resources and blood to pile up, and finally temporarily overwhelmed the offensive of the Divine Skeleton "Dimension Blueprint", creating an opportunity for the Herrschers on the civilized side to kill it.

They worked together, united as one, made countless sacrifices to bridge the gap in strength, and ultimately won the victory - at least on the surface.

And that's enough.

The quantum network created by Xukong Wanzang is still maintained. The surviving soldiers occasionally hear the interstellar broadcast channel from their hometown, and their eyes are filled with tears; looking at the tens of thousands of pages of lists of victims within their respective legions, they are also proud of their own civilization. The fear of collapse can no longer drown out the growing fighting spirit and courage.

·————————————·

"Your plan failed."

Inside the expeditionary force’s flagship, the white-haired man looked at the last divine corpse that had turned into dust of light, and turned his gaze to the blond man beside him.

"No, it was just delayed. Apparently, something went wrong with the scheduled "trial" announced by the end, but the collapse of this world cannot be eliminated so easily."

Otto shrugged, and the holographic projection stopped fluctuating because of the stable communication connection. He still sat in the virtual chair, distractedly handling the matters at hand while replying to Kevin.

"The miracle came true... But this is also what I had assumed before."

"That is to say, the situation is still under your control."

"That's about right. As you can see, we had prepared for the worst, but the hidden move we made in advance was a great success.

It even disrupted the planned plan, but in the final analysis, the advantages are greater. Haha... In terms of unexpectedness, she is still the same as before..."

As if recalling something interesting, the blond man smiled and withdrew his gaze from a certain observation point where there was no target.

"And this is enough to show that her influence on the Herrscher of the End is beyond our expectations..."

As he was speaking, Otto in reality received an encrypted communication from the Destiny Observatory. His projection also connected the communication in front of Kevin without any hesitation, synchronizing the terminal light screen inside the Glorious Covenant flagship.

"What is it? If it is an internal matter of the New Era Destiny Organization, you can report it directly to Acting Bishop Rita Rossweisse."

"Lord Otto, the Heavenly Mandate Command has observed an unidentified star body, 37405.25 meters from the Earth of the Axis Void Tree World, and is about to move in a circular motion through the predicted orbit."

"Oh? Not a celebrity body... Could it be that guy has another trick up his sleeve?"

Otto raised his eyebrows with interest, and glanced at Kevin beside him. He found that the man was still indifferent. He didn't say much and continued to communicate with the communicator.

"Synchronize the specific data of that 'unknown star'."

"Wait a moment, the live image is being transmitted..."

Following the operator's operation, the image quickly appeared on the terminal's screen. The blond man saw a silver disk with shadow flaws embedded in the dark and empty sky.

"This is......"

In the civilization circle of the Axis World, this planet has a well-known name.

"......moon?"

Looking at the pattern on the screen that was undoubtedly called "moon", the blond man was stunned. The next moment, the relaxed expression that had been on his face from beginning to end completely disappeared.

Instead, there was a dark and solemn atmosphere.

When the Earth, as a world tree, supported countless quantum world bubbles outside, the near-atmospheric cosmic matter, including the moon, should have been filled into the expanding material layer at the moment of world fusion.

And now, the moon, which was supposed to become part of the crust of the new world, now appears intact on one track of the star ring...

"What's wrong with you, Bishop? Don't worry, according to the latest analysis data just obtained, the moon's rotation orbit avoids the surrounding world bubble, and no Houkai reaction has been detected on the moon's surface."

"The most terrifying thing is that no Honkai energy reaction is detected..."

1046 Release

When the first battle between civilization and Honkai was won, the "moon" that appeared out of nowhere in the center of the World Ring once again alarmed countless organizations within the alliance.

Ordinary people on Earth were already accustomed to the existence of the moon, and seeing the moon again after the catastrophe of the Great Collapse was not surprising. However, in the Earth Government Headquarters at the Axis of All Worlds, especially those senior officials who had investigated the nature of the Second Collapse and knew a little about the relationship between the moon and the Collapse, this discovery was extraordinary.

While all civilizations in the alliance were closely watching the expeditionary force's battle situation, a small number of people left the conference room and even suspended the collection of expedition intelligence and began to urgently prepare plans to survey the moon...

Many people have a premonition that this unprecedented decisive battle between civilization and destruction is about to usher in new drastic changes.

However, in this fleeting moment, in the high-dimensional crack world created by the Herrschers of the End, everything in the World Ring is still in a relatively static state.

——The space and time of the entire dimensional universe were frozen.

When the resurrected Herrscher girl returned to the throne of God, she used the authority of time in her hands to tie a "knot" on the timeline of the four-dimensional universe in advance, blocking the flow of time before something happened.

After all, she didn't want her world to come to an end before resolving the conflict between the sisters.

——Here, everything that happens in the outside world at this moment has nothing to do with the twin Herrschers who are confronting each other in different time and space.

Tiana stared at the girl in front of her.
