For example, if Lilith were to study mechanical dynamics, she could master the knowledge quickly, but she would not be able to make various inventions like Vilvi. She could understand the principle and structure of the God's Key, but she could not make the God's Key without the precedent wooden board.
"Do you have anything else to do this afternoon?" Kevin asked.
"I don't think so." Zhu Yufeng replied, "Basketball court?"
"Ah."
“…I’ll come too.”
The other Fire Moth soldiers looked over here. To them, the three guys sitting here were simply a trio of winners in life, especially Feng... But there was nothing they could do, these three guys were better at fighting than each other...
Chapter 209: On the Eve of the Great Collapse
"I thought that the person who escorted the biological samples of Mahadeva this time would be Captain Himiko." Uriel looked at the biological samples of Mahadeva in the container and said, "You are the captain of the action team that Alicia is in now, Feng, right? Captain Himiko thinks highly of you."
"Then I am really honored to receive such high praise from Senior Himiko." Zhu Yufeng glanced around Uriel's laboratory. He didn't have any impression of Uriel. He just heard from Mebius when he came here that Uriel died in the Seventh Herrscher incident. The cause was presumed to be the birth of the Judgment-level Honkai Beast Surya near her research institute, and Surya's flames burned down the entire research institute, so he paid attention to Uriel's laboratory.
There was no way around it. After all, he was forcibly transferred back to the headquarters in order to fight against the Seventh Herrscher during the Seventh Herrscher incident. There was absolutely no possibility for him and Uriel to have any intersection.
As for the reason why Himiko didn't come, it was naturally because the World Serpent was operating in secret. Himiko underwent a physical examination at the headquarters, and no conditions that met the requirements of a Herrscher's body were found. Therefore, Zhu Yufeng was more convinced that Himiko was a Herrscher who was forcibly injected with Honkai energy. Mobius remained skeptical about his speculation, but to be on the safe side, he still found a way to keep Himiko at the headquarters and monitor her regularly.
What Zhu Yufeng is more worried about now is that, assuming his guess is correct, if Himiko no longer has the conditions to become the Seventh Herrscher, then where will the huge collapse energy that erupted during the Seventh Great Collapse go in the end?
This is also what Mobius and Velvi are worried about. If the opponent they face this time is still Himiko, then they will be quite confident that they can kill Himiko in time. At worst, Australia will still be burned in the end, and there will be no worse results. But if it becomes someone else... the strength of the Seventh Herrscher will become an unknown.
The reason why Himiko, the Seventh Herrscher, was able to wreak havoc in Australia and paralyze all of Australia and the Fire Moth's means of defense was because even though her consciousness was replaced by Honkai, Himiko's own combat consciousness and experience were also absorbed by Honkai, so... the Seventh Herrscher is actually quite capable.
While possessing the combat capability of an elite warrior, he also possessed the destructive power of the Seventh Herrscher to burn everything, which made all the counterattack methods used by humans at the time ineffective.
Because of this, the Fire Moth had to accept the Fusion Warrior Plan proposed by Mei. The Seventh Herrscher incident had truly posed a huge threat to human civilization. Otherwise, the Fusion Warrior Plan, which only existed in theory at the time and even Mei herself predicted a zero success rate, would have been difficult to pass the parliament's vote.
In other words, although the seventh Herrscher that Himiko became was very powerful, at least those who were reborn had a rough idea of its strength. Mobius even thought that if conditions permitted, the only fusion warrior now, Xila, had a good chance of killing Himiko, but if it was someone else...
Although it is possible that he will be even weaker, just like the Third Herrscher who was just a student before awakening, the possibility of him becoming stronger cannot be ruled out.
According to Zhu Yufeng's memory, the former civilization encountered three crises that directly threatened the survival of mankind in the process of fighting against the collapse. The first was the Seventh Herrscher incident, the second was the tragedy of Constraint, and the last was the End of the War.
The impact of these three crises on humanity was enormous. The Seventh Herrscher led to the birth of Fusion Warriors, the Eleventh Herrscher almost annihilated all Fusion Warriors, and the Herrscher of the End was able to reset the surface civilization.
Perhaps after the incident with the Twelfth Herrscher, human civilization was in fact close to extinction, and the Last Battle was just a dying struggle, but the Twelfth Herrscher is essentially incomparable to the Seventh, Eleventh and Last Herrschers. These three Herrschers brought humans to a situation where it was difficult to win with existing means, and if they were not defeated, humans would perish, and they were all extremely powerful for human civilization at that time.
Zhu Yufeng felt a headache. The reason why he wanted to keep Himiko was for Hua. He and Kevin both saw the rare excitement on Hua's face when she saw Seele successfully transformed from a Herrscher back into a human. Himiko... For Hua, Himiko was her life mentor and one of the most important people to her. Even though the memories of Himiko left for Hua had been deleted by Yu Duchen 50,000 years later, when Hua, who had experienced thousands of years, saw Himiko, the time and space isotope of Himiko, Hua still couldn't help crying, even though she herself didn't know why she was crying.
"I want to save Captain Himiko, and I want to reverse the tragedy that was about to happen here." This was the first time Hua said what she wanted.
and so……
"I still have to give it a try, right?" Zhu Yufeng thought to himself.
He stopped thinking and found that there was a pair of eyes fixed on him. He looked at Uriel, who was staring at him straight. Even though Uriel was a beautiful girl, it was creepy to see her looking at him with such an undisguised gaze.
"Doctor Uriel, why are you looking at me like that?" Zhu Yufeng suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and at the same time he was alert to Uriel. This look was different from the way Mobius looked at the experimental subject. It seemed to be exploring, and it seemed to carry some other meaning...
Could it be that the seventh Herrscher born this time would be Uriel? After all, Surya was indeed born near the research institute where Uriel was in his previous life, but the Seventh Collapse has not yet occurred? As far as he knew, the Herrscher of the Seventh Collapse was born when the Collapse occurred...
But this is not right. In her previous life, Uriel was still in Australia. If she met the conditions for the Herrscher's body, she would have been the Seventh Herrscher's body before the Seventh Collapse. Then why was it Himiko who became the Seventh Herrscher at that time? And Himiko was forcibly injected with Collapse Energy to become the Seventh Herrscher.
Is it the butterfly effect after my rebirth?
Uriel retracted his gaze and said calmly: "I am beginning to believe in Himiko's judgment. You may... indeed be as good as Alicia."
Huh? That's it? You looked at me with such a weird look for so long and just said this?
What did Himiko praise me to make you look at me like that?
That's right... Before coming here, Himiko said that Uriel believed that Alicia was currently the strongest warrior of the Fire Moth. Even himself and Lilith, in Uriel's opinion, were still inferior to Alicia in terms of their performance.
Thinking of what Himiko had said about Uriel being a somewhat weird scientific researcher, Zhu Yufeng began to feel that it was not strange that Uriel looked at him in that way. After all, the people he knew who were related to scientific research... were all a little... different from ordinary people.
"The biological samples have been delivered. In the near future, I will stay in Australia with Alicia and the others to help clean up the Honkai incident that occurred in Australia. If Dr. Uriel has nothing else to do, I will leave first." Zhu Yufeng said. He still felt uncomfortable with the way Uriel looked at him before and was ready to run away.
Just when Zhu Yufeng thought that there was nothing left for him to do, Uriel suddenly asked, "Feng, what do you think of Honkai?"
Zhu Yufeng frowned. Why did she ask this?
Seeing that he didn't answer, Uriel continued to speak as if he was thinking to himself: "The current academic view is that Honkai appeared with the birth of human civilization and evolved with the evolution of human civilization. In other words, Honkai can even be considered to exist with human civilization. So, do you think that Honkai is like a mechanism used by the earth to clean up humans?"
I believe more in the mechanism of the tree of imaginary numbers to screen civilizations.
Zhu Yufeng said this in his heart, but on the surface he asked Uriel: "Why do you think so, Doctor?"
Uriel replied calmly, "Because humans are the only species in the history of biological evolution that interferes with the natural process at will. The steel jungle has replaced the original grass and trees. The animals that were originally free to roam have been locked up in cages for people to admire. The creatures that should have been extinct have been retained because of human greed, and the creatures that should not have been extinct have been extinct because of human greed...Humans are constantly trying to challenge the laws of nature, trying to dominate nature, trying to surpass nature. They will also start wars and destroy nature for their own desires. If the earth is a conscious life form, then could collapse be a mechanism used by the earth to eliminate humans?"
Zhu Yufeng obviously didn't care much about this. What happened to the pre-civilized humans had little to do with him, and he wouldn't spend too much time on such things. Moreover, war... couldn't be said to be unique to humans. In her previous life, when Wei Liwei was imprisoned on a deserted island, she distributed weapons to the monkeys on the island, and the monkeys waged wars against each other as fiercely as humans.
“Humanity may indeed need to reflect on itself, but if nature threatens human survival, who stipulates that humans cannot resist?” Zhu Yufeng remembered a similar discussion in Ultraman, the Earth Destroyer. “Human history has always been a struggle with nature. Humanity may not be qualified to point fingers at nature, but this does not mean that humans should be destroyed by nature.”
"So, you are fighting against the Honkai for the survival of mankind?" Uriel asked again.
Zhu Yufeng's doubts and vigilance deepened. Because the carrier of the Seventh Herrscher was unknown, he would subconsciously wonder if anyone in Australia could be the Seventh Herrscher. He was not familiar with Uriel, and he stared at him when they met, and now he asked him so many questions that seemed to hint at something... He was really suspicious...
But there are scientists like this, just like Admiller's teacher whose grave is now covered with grass three meters high. The former director of the Third Institute is very extreme about some things. He even cooperated with a killer organization just to kill Mobius. The reason is even more outrageous. He just thinks that Mobius's research is a threat to humans, so he wants to get rid of Mobius for humans.
What is this?
Zhu Yufeng didn't want to discuss this issue with Uriel too much. He turned around and prepared to leave, and replied: "I am not fighting for humanity, I am only fighting for the people I care about. If that's all you want to say to me, then there is actually no point in continuing this topic, so I won't accompany you anymore."
"Because of Alicia?" Uriel asked again behind him.
Zhu Yufeng paused.
After all, the fact that he joined Fire Moth because of Alicia is no secret within Fire Moth. Rather, when Fire Moth opens up about its CP issue, it will be difficult to avoid the point about his original purpose of joining Fire Moth when mentioning himself and Alicia.
"You can think of it that way." After saying that, Zhu Yufeng left.
Uriel looked at the closed door of the laboratory, and muttered to himself after a while: "After all... you are similar beings, the same as us but different... No, you are just similar to us, not the same..."
After Zhu Yufeng walked out of Uriel's laboratory, he took a look at his mobile phone. It was a message from Alicia, which roughly meant that she and Lilith had gone shopping for clothes because Eden would be holding a concert in Australia soon, and she planned to dress herself up and go to see Eden's concert.
Of course, he had to go there too.
Zhu Yufeng turned off his phone and looked up at the sky. But he remembered that the Seventh Great Collapse had occurred when Eden held a concert? Would it really not affect the battle if he wore too fancy clothes? No, the concert was also divided into several days...
Never mind, Alicia wants to pick them up herself, so let her do it...
After Zhu Yufeng walked out of the research institute, he went directly to the commercial center where Alicia and Lilith went. Looking at the people coming and going in front of him, he looked down at Alicia's message, which said that he just needed to wait at the entrance.
It seems that the clothes I bought shouldn't be too many, so I don't need to go in and carry them myself...
Then just wait here.
Just as Zhu Yufeng was chatting with Mebius on the phone, trying to get some information about Uriel, a voice came from not far away: "Sir, are you waiting for someone here?"
Zhu Yufeng looked up and saw a young man with silver hair and purple eyes looking at him. Looking at his face and the characteristic eye and hair colors, he could basically determine that this was the younger brother that Lilith mentioned but she just glossed over. His name was... what was it?
"Is there something wrong?" Zhu Yufeng was not in a hurry to answer his question. At the same time, he was also looking at the young man. It seemed that he had just become an adult not long ago, but he seemed very calm and experienced. That should be Lilith's younger brother. After all, when Lilith disappeared, her brother was still a teenager. He was the only one left in his family. Of course, he would be more mature than his peers, right?
What's more, Lilith's family are all monsters in a sense...
Chapter 210 The Seventh Herrscher
So...why was Lilith's brother here and came to me?
Zhu Yufeng didn't remember where he had seen Lilith's brother. He just remembered that when Atlantis was sinking and they were evacuating, he felt as if someone was looking at him. Then Lilith mentioned that she had a younger brother, and he was a hidden, tsundere brother who loved his sister.
Although Lilith came out with Alicia this time, she was still dressed up like the last time she came to Australia, still in the same black hair and red eye outfit, but after all, she only changed her hair and eye color. For people who know her, especially her brother, who is a tsundere sister complex... I'm afraid it wouldn't be difficult to recognize her.
That means he came to me because of Lilith's problem? Did he see me and Lilith together somewhere?
"What's the matter?" Zhu Yufeng asked, while thinking about how to answer the young man. According to Lilith's explanation, she and Alicia would come out together later. Let's not talk about whether the young man would recognize his sister on the spot. Lilith would definitely not recognize this brother anyway. Even if Alicia and Lilith had a competitive hug or something, things might get a little out of hand.
Creatures that have sister control and brother control seem quite scary, especially when they have the attribute of being tsundere...
On the other side, Davion was also looking at the black-haired young man in front of him. He could judge that the young man did recognize him, or that the young man saw characteristics similar to his sister Lilith in him. This basically means that the young man knows his sister.
He had met his sister at the Australian Arts Festival before, and his sister did say that she had a boyfriend now. He had also seen this young man from a distance at the Arts Festival, and now if he looked at him up close... he seemed to be from Shenzhou? A Shenzhou person should be more reliable than Adams, right?
So, the young man in front of me is my sister's boyfriend. He came to Australia this time to discuss the next step of cooperation with Nahaima. At the same time, he also wanted to invite Miss Eden to hold a concert in his city again. This would be an opportunity for him.
Perhaps it was true as the ancient Chinese saying goes, "Everything has its own will." He ran into his sister again, but he still had no way to recognize her because he still had no qualifications to learn the truth about the South American hurricane. His sister seemed to recognize him, but she quickly looked away.
The pink-haired girl next to her... is she my sister's new friend? They seem to have a good relationship. It seems that my sister's life over there is really good. At least in Davion's impression, my sister has almost no friends who can make her not talk like an elegant princess.
But... until now, after the South American hurricane, he has never lived like before. Although his late hateful father would still try to provoke a fight between them, just to make the Atajina family go further, but... at least at that time, his elder sister and younger sister were still there, and the family was still there...
He had to force himself to be more indifferent than before, and to become more mature...
But every time when it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he would stare at the family photos that they had taken together in the past.
Those days will never come back.
Although he finally confirmed that his sister was still alive, he had no way of recognizing her. He could only learn about her and her younger sister from his sister. But he was still worried, because no matter how wronged his sister was, she would hardly show it to her family. He was very worried that his sister might be bullied.
But... he had no choice. The place or organization his sister was currently in was not something he could contact now. After they parted at the Australian Art Festival, he couldn't even find the whereabouts of the fake identity his sister used. It was not until today that they met again.
Since this man who is his sister's current boyfriend also showed up here, he thought it necessary for him to find out the situation, at least to confirm that this man was not a scumbag who deceived his sister's feelings.
"Nothing, I just saw you at the entrance of a busy shopping street, looking like you were waiting for someone, so I was a little curious and came over to ask." Davion looked at Zhu Yufeng and said, "Have you... seen someone who looks a bit like me somewhere before?"
"Have you seen me somewhere before?" Zhu Yufeng asked back. He had no interest in testing each other with Lilith's brother here, and he felt that the other party seemed to be really testing and sizing him up as his brother-in-law. According to the confidentiality regulations of the Fire Moth, he certainly would not disclose any information related to the Fire Moth, but he could still tell him some other things, it just depended on whether Lilith's brother could understand him.
"I saw you from afar at the Australian Arts Festival before." Davion said bluntly, "The girlfriend next to you at that time looked a bit like someone I know, so I had a slight impression of her. Today, I saw you here, seemingly waiting for someone, so I wondered if you were waiting for your girlfriend."
Girlfriend? Has Lilith met her brother before? Otherwise, why is he so sure that Lilith is his girlfriend? And this way... his situation seems to be even worse. He doesn't know when Lilith and Alicia will come out. If something happens then...
It’s better to have less trouble than more, so let’s find a way to get rid of him.
"Indeed, she and her friends are buying clothes here." Zhu Yufeng said while observing Davion. As he expected, Davion should have met Alicia and Lilith, but it seemed that he did not go to find Lilith, otherwise Alicia would definitely have mentioned it in the text message to him.
"Is that so? I heard that girls buy a lot of things when they go shopping. Don't you plan to go in and help them carry some of the things?" Davion asked again.
First of all, as Herrschers, they would have no problem hanging you up and beating you up if they get serious. Second...
"She said I don't need to go in." Zhu Yufeng glanced inside the mall. "You seem to care too much about some things. What I can tell you is that she is doing well now and is living according to her own wishes."
It would be impolite to say more. Has he made it clear enough? If he still doesn't understand... If he still doesn't understand, he will have to doubt whether this is Lilith's biological brother. How can his IQ be so much lower than your sister's?
Refusing any beating around the bush, he had no interest in being a riddle man, let alone having an encrypted conversation with these two riddle men.
"Is that so..." Davion also saw from the coldness on Zhu Yufeng's face that he didn't want to talk more. When he looked at him from a distance before, he didn't seem to have any expression. Did his sister find a boyfriend with expressionless face? However, although it is debatable whether he didn't go in to help his sister carry things, at least his sister told him that he didn't need to go in, and he was waiting here, so at least... he really cared about his sister.
I can feel a little relieved now...
"I'm sorry to bother you. To express my apology, please take this necklace as my compensation." Davion said as he took out a box containing a necklace inlaid with purple gemstones.
Zhu Yufeng took a look and examined the box briefly. He was not sure whether Davion had placed a bug in it. After all, it was unpredictable what a creature with sister complex would do after not seeing his sister for such a long time.
"No need." Zhu Yufeng chose to refuse, "There is nothing for you to apologize for... You don't need to know too much, at least for your own safety."
Davion was silent for a moment. He soon realized that the other party suspected that he had placed a bug in the necklace or box. In fact, he did so. He still felt uneasy without carefully confirming the character of his sister's boyfriend...
But since the other party is so wary...it's even more suspicious!
"Hey, this guy looks familiar. Have we met before?" A voice that Zhu Yufeng was quite familiar with sounded. Zhu Yufeng looked over and saw that it was Nahaima...
Why is this guy here? Isn't his daily routine all about picking up girls and spending money?
"How could I have the chance to meet Master Nahaima?" Zhu Yufeng said, "At most, I saw you give a speech from afar during the previous art festival."
"Oh? Really? Indeed, I don't have any memory of seeing you anywhere, but you look familiar." Nahaima shrugged. "Originally, the old man at home asked me to come here to look for Davion. I was thinking why would a pretty girl ask me to come here, but I didn't expect to meet a guy who looks so familiar to me. Boy, it's fate that we meet. How about having a few drinks with me tonight?"
Zhu Yufeng: “…”
This second-rate guy...
"I'm sorry, Master Nahaima, I may not be free at night, please understand." Zhu Yufeng said lightly.
Davion looked at Zhu Yufeng in surprise. This guy said he had never met Nahaima, but his tone... wouldn't it really make Nahaima unhappy? It was a bit offensive anyway, right?
"Hahaha, oh, I always feel like you would talk like that, then I won't bother you anymore, you can come find me if you have a chance in the future." Nahaima said with a smile, he felt in his heart that this guy seemed to really talk like that, and why did that sentence that Master Nahaima said sound a little bit wrong to him...
"How about you just call me Nahaima from now on?" Nahaima said, "By the way, what's your name, brother? We are so destined to meet, it would be a pity if we don't get to know each other."
"Just call me Feng." Zhu Yufeng said.
"Feng? Hmm... it's a nice name... Well, since you don't have time, Feng, I'll take Davion back first. See you sometime in the future!" Naheima said, touching his chin. Actually, he was not in a very good mood when he came out, but the old man in the family admired Davion and was ready to support him, so he asked him to come over to show his respect.
But for some reason, after meeting this guy named Feng, I felt like I was meeting an old friend again. Also... did this Feng know Lilith? The moment I heard his name, I inexplicably thought of Lilith, and now these two people have an inexplicable CP feeling in my heart?
However, Nahema didn't think too much about it. He said goodbye to Zhu Yufeng and left with Davion.
Zhu Yufeng watched the two people leave and fell into deep thought. Naheima... Although this guy is the most stupid fallen angel and is often disliked and humiliated by Abaddon, it is undeniable that he is actually a brother like Kevin to him, even if his brain circuit is indeed a little problematic.
"Feng~You didn't wait too long, did you?" Alicia's voice rang out. Zhu Yufeng looked over and saw Alicia and Lilith both trotting towards him with a bag in their hands.
