Anyway, he felt that Kosmo would most likely not get the answer he wanted. Aponia could no longer see the fate of others, except for his own death...
After everyone else left, Kosmo looked at Aponia and hesitated for a long time before saying, "... Aponia, in the Seventh Herrscher incident, Himiko ended up being..."
Aponia listened quietly to Kosmo's account of the events surrounding the Seventh Herrscher. She was also surprised that Uriel transferred the Herrscher core into Himiko's body, but she was not too surprised.
After explaining the events of the Seventh Herrscher, Kosmo asked, "Aponia, tell me, this time... Will Desdobia leave like she did before? Is the fate of the people who are related to us, the people who are important to us, unchangeable?"
Aponia was silent. The Seventh Herrscher incident proved that fate still came back in the end. Even though Zhu Yufeng prevented the complete break between humans and Herrscher in advance during the Sixth Herrscher incident, Uriel still did it on behalf of the Sixth Herrscher in the end, and Himiko also became a Herrscher in the end.
After a long while, Aponia spoke up: "Destiny is not invincible, but when you decide to change your destiny, you must be prepared to pay the corresponding price."
"I want to save Desdobia and I'm willing to do whatever it takes," Kosmo said. "But... I'm more afraid that after I've tried my best, I'll still have to watch her leave."
Aponia looked in the direction where Zhu Yufeng left, and then said: "I think Feng is more suitable to answer this question than me. I once believed that fate was invincible, but... he made me willing to believe that fate is not unchangeable, but the price he paid..."
It's also too heavy.
"…What price did Feng pay?" Kosmo keenly noticed that Abonya seemed to have something else to say, but Abonya no longer intended to say anything. He could only give up and bury this doubt in his heart.
Chapter 219 Bal: Boss, take me away!
"Since the first time I saw you, I knew that you were my destined benefactor and my boss! So..."
"Boss, please take me away!"
Zhu Yufeng looked at Bal who was holding onto his thigh with a frown on his face, wondering why he had the brain to let this Nahaima No. 2 join his team in his previous life?
He had just finished his investigation, and had basically cleared Aponia of suspicion, but for the sake of future arrangements, he still had to bring Aponia back to Fire Moth. As for the children she had taken in at the sanatorium? Didn't Seele come from an orphanage before? The director of that orphanage is now also the director of Fire Moth's shelter for orphans infected by Honkai. With the financial support of Eden and Naheima, it was nothing more than a little more expenditure. It made no difference to them whether they had them or not.
This arrangement had been planned before coming here. Regardless of the results of the investigation, in order to strictly implement confidentiality measures, the sanatorium where Abonya is located is no longer suitable to continue operating.
He told Abonya about the future arrangements, and Abonya agreed. Just as he was about to leave with Abonya and the others, he was still thinking about how he was going to find Bal. After all, in his previous life, he came to Dusk Street a few days after finishing the cleanup there and was leaving when this guy came to him.
Now he came to Dusk Street a few days in advance. If he follows the previous trajectory, he might not come back until the Eighth Herrscher incident... No, he will not go back to Dusk Street again. This time he will take Astaroth away directly. No matter whether it is Baal or Astaroth, the gray snakes sent by the World Serpent to guard here have already found out their locations and are ready.
Just when Zhu Yufeng was about to go find Baal and Astaroth, this guy showed up again, and once again, he hugged his thighs and wouldn't let go...
Zhu Yufeng: “…”
Suddenly I don't really want this player anymore.
The reason why Bal is called the second Nahaima is that his second-year syndrome is even more serious than Kosmo's. When he gets angry, he won't behave himself unless he is beaten. Once he behaves himself, he will do it again next time. Nahaima at least has some idea in his mind. Although he is often beaten by Xila or Lilith, Bal is the one who is beaten the most times.
Because Bal really has no idea in his mind, and he does things without any scruples. In a nutshell, he doesn't care about anything, just do it first and talk about it later...
He is not simple-minded, but his mind is relatively pure... As a person who hangs around in Dusk Street, Baal is not without his skills. He just regards other fallen angels as the people he trusts the most, so he is unscrupulous. When communicating with outsiders more, Baal's own emergency premonition is still useful.
According to Bal, when he was hanging out in Dusk Street, he would run away immediately if he realized something was slightly wrong. Although that was his instinct, he never thought about why. He would just run away as soon as he felt the feeling.
In the end, when the tragedy of restraint came, he still had to follow...
Just when Zhu Yufeng was thinking about whether to just put up with it, after all, Bal was also his teammate, Bal suddenly looked up and said, "Astaroth, don't just stand there, I finally managed to knock down your damn parents, now is your chance to leave, come on, come with me and hug my thigh!"
Zhu Yufeng glanced at Astaroth who was standing aside with an expressionless face, then clenched his fists. His fists became hard. He wanted to beat Bal up right now. It was bad enough that he had a seizure, but he also wanted to lead Astaroth astray, right?
good, very good!
"Boom!"
A big bump appeared on Baal's head.
Bal covered his head and let go of his hand and shouted, "Boss, why did you hit me? No, I feel like your punch can at least break a wall, which means... Boss, you agreed to take me and Astaroth away from this damn place, right?"
Kosmo, who had been watching the show, covered his face and couldn't bear to watch. Zhu Yufeng's punch just now was too fast. He subconsciously wanted to help Astaroth block it, but unfortunately he didn't catch up...
He glanced at Astaroth, who said expressionlessly, "If you had been quieter, big brother wouldn't have hit you like that."
From her tone, there was absolutely no sympathy for Bal, and it even sounded a bit disgusted.
Kosmo: "..."
He was thinking too much.
Aponia glanced at Astaroth. She had also taken care of this child and had a particularly deep impression of her. The main reason was... she had clearly seen that this child would collapse due to being hurt and eventually be killed by Kevin. However, in Zhu Yufeng's hands, her fate was forcibly changed, and the thread that was supposed to be broken was reconnected.
If she started to pay attention to him before because she, like Alicia, could not see the thread of Zhu Yufeng's fate, after that, she even began to pay special attention to Zhu Yufeng. As Astaroth was the first person whose fate was changed that she had seen, and also a child who had been locked up in the deepest place for many years, she would naturally pay more attention to him.
In most cases, Astaroth doesn't care about the outside world at all. It was only after she had the fusion warrior surgery that Grayshu became easily influenced by the outside world and had to avoid other people because of her own abilities. In fact, Grayshu's heart is far from as calm as she looks. She has a strong curiosity that all children have, but... Astaroth seems to have never had curiosity.
According to Aponia's observation, when Astaroth was in the deepest place, she spent most of her time reading storybooks. The noise from the outside world had nothing to do with her. She didn't care what happened outside. Even when other serious criminals tore up Astaroth's storybook and made fun of her when she was away, Astaroth didn't react much.
Of course, the final fate of those serious criminals was to be eaten alive by Beelzebub in a collapsed state.
Literally eaten raw.
Astaroth may not take action, but that doesn't mean the fallen angels will just ignore it, and they will not care about the so-called constraints.
After that, Aponia, feeling something was wrong, imposed commandments on all the fallen angels. Beelzebub was strongly opposed at first, but later he accepted the commandments after being beaten half to death by Zhu Yufeng.
This is normal for Beelzebub, he won't give up until he is beaten half to death.
And Zhu Yufeng also had his own considerations, because Beelzebub's actions at that time were too sensational, even unprecedented, and there was Esmodes who went crazy from time to time in the team, and Astarte's own ability made the high-level people afraid Afraid, after that incident happened, the people of Moth Chasing Flame panicked, so... all members of the Fallen Angels must accept the commandments of Alponia, so that they can barely calm the floating hearts.
If he hadn't beaten Beelzebub half to death afterwards, Astaroth was the victim in this matter, and Kevin and he still had some reputation. Otherwise, with Beelzebub's behavior, the Fallen Angel Team would be forced to disband, or at best execute him.
In fact, Zhu Yufeng himself had to take the blame for this. Before, Astaroth collapsed passively because she couldn't stand being bullied. After he calmed Astaroth down, he asked other fallen angels to pay attention to Astaroth and not let her be bullied again. Beelzebub thought much more simply. Stop being bullied? Simple, just kill the person who created the problem and let other people who want to create problems see the consequences of creating problems.
Although the approach was not appropriate, from the perspective of preventing others from bullying Astaroth, it was very effective, and even a permanent solution. This is how the rumor "The person who should not be provoked in the Fire Moths is Astaroth" came about. If you accidentally provoke Beelzebub, you can find Zhu Yufeng to beat him up and resolve the matter. If you provoke Astaroth, she won't say anything, but it is hard to say what the other fallen angels will do, especially since Zhu Yufeng, the leader of the fallen angels, is very likely not to care.
Even if there are precepts, no one would dare to test them with his life.
"How did you get to know Astaroth and bring her out?" Zhu Yufeng glanced at Bal and said. He had thought about whether he should break into the house and snatch Astaroth away when he found her, but Bal just brought Astaroth out directly. If it weren't for this, he would have punched Bal in the head the moment Bal hugged him.
Normally, Baal didn't know Astaroth when he was still in Dusk Street, but this time he let Gray Snake come first.
Bal touched the bump on his head and said, "Parents like Astaroth are either quarreling or scolding their children every day. When they are tired of scolding, they beat their children to vent their anger. I have been wandering around Dusk Street for so long, and that Gray Snake also asked me about this matter. I was inexplicably concerned about it, so I paid close attention to it."
It seems that it was useful to ask Gray Snake to come and investigate in advance.
Zhu Yufeng looked at Astaroth, and Astaroth looked at Baal. Baal was silent for a moment before he said, "Originally, I always think less trouble is worse than more trouble. Such things happen every day in Dusk Street, and I basically watch them... I don't know why, but at that time, I suddenly felt very unhappy with those two guys, so... if I have the ability, I... work with that gray snake to find a way to bring Astaroth out."
Zhu Yufeng subconsciously glanced at Aponia, who sighed softly. She really didn't know about this, but even if she knew, there was nothing she could do. Astaroth was not an orphan, and her parents didn't allow her to leave "home". She had no reason to take Astaroth away, and beating and scolding children... was not uncommon in Dusk Street. She had no way of interfering. It was something she couldn't control at all.
"Oh, isn't this Sister Nia?" Bal said as if he had just recognized her. "Oh, sorry, I only saw the boss just now... Sister Nia, are you also going to run away with the boss?"
Aponya smiled helplessly and said, "Okay... think of it this way."
Bal looked at Abonya seriously with his chin raised, and then said: "Although Sister Nia is very popular with children and is very good at taking care of children, I always feel that the people around the eldest brother should..."
"Boom!"
Zhu Yufeng withdrew his hand. The bag he had just made was symmetrical with the previous one, which was pretty good.
He did it almost subconsciously. It might be because he had been tormented like this too many times by Kevin or Nahaima who had just returned in his daily life. If he was not careful, they would create a Shura scene for him, so he would subconsciously bring up this topic and end the conversation as soon as possible.
Come to think of it, Lionel seemed to be saying that he wanted to transfer Beffinger to the Fire Moth. If that Fire King came over now...
"Boss, why did you hit me again..." Bal asked aggrievedly.
"Don't say what you shouldn't say." Zhu Yufeng said expressionlessly. He seemed to notice that Seele's gaze seemed to be a little strange at that moment... Anyway, for Bal's sake, he would punch him first.
see亇le folded her arms and looked at Baal. If she remembered correctly, in her previous life, she saw Baal, Abaddon and Naheima secretly plotting how to make Zhu Yufeng and Lilith kiss. If they hadn't found a way to steal the Black Abyss White Flower in order to implement the plan, she wouldn't have known.
Among all the fallen angels, these three are the most determined male Maple members. Esmodesma is probably the only female fallen angel who is a Maple member with a firm stance and really doesn't care. As for Astaroth, she should have an indifferent attitude.
However, Seele also remembered that Abaddon had always been very honest and would only take action when the opportunity was right. If it weren't for the time when they stole the Black Abyss White Flower, she wouldn't have known that Abaddon was actually a staunch Maple Party member. And as for Naheima and Baal, well, they could both be beaten.
After hearing about Astaroth's situation, Kosmo subconsciously clenched his hands. Beat the child after a quarrel? Why give birth to a child if you don't love yourself? If possible, he also wanted to beat up Astaroth's parents.
Children of this age should be little princes and princesses in the eyes of their parents, not puppets that can be beaten and scolded at will.
He looked at Zhu Yufeng again, and thinking about what happened to Astaroth after she met Zhu Yufeng, he felt a little relieved. At least, Astaroth finally met someone who was good to her.
But thinking of the Eighth Herrscher incident as the opportunity for Astarotte and Zhu Yufeng to meet, Cosmo's heart became heavy again.
"So how did you bring Astaroth out?" Zhu Yufeng turned the topic back and looked at Astaroth. Astaroth was now even younger than when he met her in his memory. She was still as thin and looked dirty, with bruises visible on the exposed skin.
He squatted down, reached out and touched Astaroth's head, and said after a long time: "Sorry, I'm late."
"What else can we do? With the help of that guy called Gray Snake, we just put him in a sack and knocked him out." Barr shrugged. "I kicked him a few times before I left. Then I heard that Gray Snake say that his leader, the big boss, would come today, so I brought Astaroth here."
"I'll let Gray Snake take care of the rest of the things later." Zhu Yufeng stood up and said. He actually only knew a general idea about Astaroth's past. He knew that her parents were not kind to her, but... after all, he was born in a harmonious and happy family, and even grew up in a warm and harmonious environment. He was born in the light and could not think about the darkness.
After posting this article, I read it carefully several times, but still felt that it was not right, so I revised it. You can just refresh Chapter 219. I modified some parts that I felt were not right to make the plot more reasonable. I'm very sorry that there was a small problem.
However, it seems that I can get through the Eighth Herrscher incident before the end of this month or this week.
Chapter 220 Padu: Seele, don't be as stubborn as Brother Yufeng
The hard shell of the Honkai creature was cut open by a sharp sickle, and the entire Honkai beast was destroyed in an instant. At the same time, the surrounding environment began to change, and an artificially synthesized voice sounded: "This test has ended, the system is automatically restoring the initial data, and the test score is requested to be checked by the tester."
Seele stood still, carrying the blood-red sickle that was not in line with her body size on her shoulder, and calmed her somewhat rapid breathing. She took a look at the score she got in this test. It was far more than the requirement for an ordinary warrior to participate in the official battlefield against Honkai, and she almost belonged to the category of elite warriors.
"Tsk... but in the end it's still just this score..." Seele whispered. This score is definitely excellent for most Fire Moth warriors, but Seele's requirement for herself is at least not to let that dead wood make a fool of herself during the formal operation, or in the end only the dead wood can go to a place but she can't.
Paduo, who was in charge of training with her, twitched her lips. What she wanted to say was that Brother Yufeng really didn’t care about these things. Her training results were just average. She still went on missions with Brother Yufeng every time. It was just that her luck was a little better than others. Usually, the missions would end early due to various reasons...
In short, seele, please don't be as curled up as Brother Yufeng. I'm just a cat, and I really can't be curled up any more...
"That's great... Another rising star who is highly adaptable to Honkai energy and can manipulate it precisely." A soldier sat in a rest chair and said to his companions helplessly.
If Honkai energy is used properly, it can be used to strengthen one's physical fitness in a short period of time. The extent of the side effects depends on the upper limit of Honkai energy adaptability. If it is high, there may not even be any side effects. This is why Seele, a student with standard weight and body shape, can easily wield a scythe taller than her.
There were very few people like this in the previous civilization. Most warriors needed the assistance of instruments to operate Honkai energy, and they also needed some protective equipment to enter and exit the central areas where Honkai occurred. As for that small number of warriors, such as Zhu Yufeng, Kevin, Alicia, etc., they were adept at operating Honkai energy and had high adaptability to Honkai energy. Therefore, no one except them would take on some difficult tasks, unless they were busy with another task and could not get away.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Who told us that we don't have the qualifications?" His companion said, "There's no need to be dejected. People like Feng are a minority after all. We have to deal with some minor collapses, right? We all have our own responsibilities, right?"
"But I also want to be a hero admired by everyone like Feng..." The soldier who spoke leaned back, "We are also veterans, aren't we? We have experienced quite a few battles so far, but in the end, our training results were still surpassed by a child who didn't even have any combat experience before, and we couldn't catch up with him... Oh, I understand what you said, but I can't help but feel a little emotional..."
His companion was silent for a moment, then said, "So? Assuming you have the same qualifications as them, will you also join the Fusion Warrior Program?"
The warrior was silent. Up to now, the failure rate of surgeries for volunteers in the Fusion Warrior Program had reached an alarming number. So far, only Xila, Zhu Yufeng, Kevin, Alicia, Lilith, Ying, Abaddon, Admiller, Mebius, Rolfko and Velvi had successfully passed the surgery. All the others had failed, and the only result of failure was death.
The girl in front of them was also on the list of the Fusion Warrior Program.
"However, the people in Feng's original team will basically all undergo the fusion warrior surgery, right?" The companion sighed, "After all, the heroes in the story always gather together, right?"
The ones who haven't undergone the fusion warrior surgery yet are Pado, Hua, Kosmo and Desdobia. Hen will undergo the fusion warrior surgery soon. Blanca is actually quite opposed to this, but after thinking for a long time, Hen decides to agree to Lionel's participation in the fusion warrior program.
As for Hua, she was not on the list in Lionel's hand, and Pado was just at the standard line for surgery. There were other people with better qualifications than her, but their operations still failed in the end, so Lionel put Pado at the end of the list.
Although Kosmo and Desdobia met the criteria for the surgery, for some reason, they did not choose to participate in the Fusion Warrior Program. Fire Moth certainly did not force them to do so. After all, the probability of success of the surgery was really low. Kosmo and Desdobia were both excellent warriors. If the surgery failed, the price would still be quite heavy...
Rofko met the criteria for the Fusion Warrior surgery, but when she wanted to join the Fusion Warrior program, she was strongly opposed by Lionel. He believed that even if Rofko was qualified as a researcher, there was no need for her to participate in this kind of surgery, as she would not go to the battlefield. However, Rofko ignored Lionel and contacted Admiral directly to secretly complete the Fusion Warrior surgery. By the time Lionel found out, the surgery was already completed.
There is now increasing pressure within the Fire Moth regarding the Fusion Warrior Program, as there are so few successful cases. The only reason they can continue to insist on the program is simply because the benefits it brings are also quite huge, so they are still following the voluntary principle to perform surgery on people with suitable qualifications.
"Feng and his team are still in the first echelon. If you don't complete the operation, even if you have the same qualifications as them, you won't be able to catch up with them." The companion said slowly, "You know that Kevin's heart stopped beating several times during the operation, and Feng's vital signs almost dropped to zero during the operation... Becoming a hero is not as easy as you think..."
"That's right. If you want to be a hero, you must have the courage to take risks. Because they are heroes, they must move forward even in the most difficult and dangerous situations, because behind them are the lights of thousands of homes."
"Captain Lionel?!"
The two warriors were startled by the sudden appearance of Lionel.
"I think not everyone is willing to protect the lights of thousands of homes. Is it possible that some people simply like the world because of the person they like, so they protect the lights of thousands of homes for the person they like?" A gentle man wearing a gold-rimmed monocle said with a smile.
Lionel just looked at Seele in the training ground. He was too lazy to argue with Beffinger, the nitpicking guy.
"Seele, a survivor of the Sixth Great Honkai, was found to have signs of Honkai infection by the Admiller Laboratory after being rescued. She was then transferred to the Mobius Laboratory to become a collaborator of Mobius in exchange for treatment... She has the qualifications to undergo the Fusion Warrior surgery. For her, the Fusion Warrior surgery may be her life-saving straw." Lionel looked at the information in his hand. He came here today just to see the results of Seele's training. He personally opposed Seele joining the Fusion Warrior program because she was too young and lacked practical experience... From a common sense point of view, Lionel did not want her to participate in the Fusion Warrior surgery now.
In addition, Seele has a split personality like Velvi, although not as many as Velvi, but Leonard has also observed the other personality. He feels that the other personality is a bit cowardly and not suitable to appear on the battlefield. It may be more appropriate to be a logistics soldier in the rear.
When it comes to split personality, who can tell for sure when the personality will switch?
As for Padova who was beside Seele, Lionel was also amazed at her good luck. He even thought that her warrior fusion surgery would definitely succeed, but he couldn't do that because he still had to be responsible for the lives of the warriors, so he finally put Padova's name at the end of the surgery list.
"Right, maybe some people just want to survive?" Beffinger shrugged, although he personally felt that it seemed that the girls who were having or passing the surgery here were all going for a guy who looked very pleasing to him.
Even though he really liked Feng, for some reason, he wanted to see Feng's Shura field, and wanted to see his headache and helpless expression... He had only been here for a few days, and he had not succeeded in adding fuel to the fire a few times, but was tricked by Lilith several times...
So Beffinger secretly joined the Maple Party promoted by Hen. Anyway, he wanted to get involved in anything that was opposed to the Maple Party. Of course, he would not show it openly. He was still a little intimidated by Lilith, and he joined the Maple Party purely because he felt that the Maple Party was the only faction that could compete with the Maple Party.
If he had to say, he personally leaned towards Fengli's party...
"No matter what, in the future battle against Honkai, they will be humanity's last line of defense against Honkai." Lionel said. He didn't know about the other people, but he had paid close attention to Feng and Kevin. Kevin should be trying to fight against Honkai for Dr. Mei, and as for Feng, although all the Fire Moths knew that Feng joined the Fire Moths because of Alicia, Feng, as the Fire King, had some complicated personal emotional issues, and even Lionel could not find any fault with him. Lionel approved of his firm belief in fighting Honkai.
Well... he actually believed more in the comradeship between Feng and Kevin. His Majesty the King's attempt to balance the two seemed to be of no use to them at all, but Lionel did not intend to report it. In his opinion, it was fine as it is now.
While the two were talking, Seele had finished his rest and started the next round of training with Padu.
