The civilization before the collapse, heroes and heroes are reborn with me

Is this... giving himself a way out? But... he doesn't need this way out. He can deceive others with this way out, but he can't deceive his own heart. He chose to confess because of his irrepressible emotions. He knows that he can't bear it if he continues like this.

"No, that's not what I meant..." He said, "Alicea, what I meant is that the feelings I have for you are the kind of feelings I have for the lover I admire... Yes, that's the kind of feelings I have for you."

The girl was silent. She looked into the boy's eyes. He was not afraid. He still looked at her, waiting for her answer.

This kind of love... She knew it. She knew it from the very beginning when he said he liked her. However, she really didn't have any thoughts in this regard, so she said that, which was also to give the boy a way out.

However, he did not choose this step, but made everything clear. He looked at himself so seriously, and at this moment, there was only himself in his eyes.

It was a sincere and passionate feeling. She admitted that she also enjoyed being with him, but... she was not sure whether her feelings for him were equal to his feelings for her.

This was his intention and the first confession she had ever received, so she didn't want to just deal with it casually.

So, refuse?

If I refuse, this should all end...

That's what she thought, but when the words came to her lips, she remembered the fireworks they watched together that night, and remembered what he said to her at that time, just like now, just as serious, so the words she said became: "Sorry, Feng. I... may not be able to respond to you now, please give me some time, okay?"

Yes, give her some time, she needs to think seriously about the relationship between the two of them and sort out her feelings... Whether she agrees or refuses, she is a little confused at this moment.

What she was thinking about was the cooperation and interactions between the two of them over the past period of time. To her, he might indeed be more special than others, but... she was a little confused about her feelings for him.

She had never thought about this, nor had any experience...

She also knew that the response she gave this time was very cunning, but she couldn't think of what to do else. She looked into the boy's eyes, and she saw a hint of loss and unwillingness in his eyes, but then relief appeared.

"Is it because I'm not a hero like Kevin?" There was reluctance in his tone, but she felt that he was just asking her for an answer.

She rejected his idea decisively and firmly: "Why do you think so? Feng, you are you, you don't need to be anyone else."

Everyone is unique and doesn't need to be like anyone else, and he shouldn't have this idea...

"But... I understand. Sorry, I was abrupt."

"It's okay, I don't mind."

"But I will still work hard to become a hero. After all... I really like you, and I also want to get more of your attention like Kevin..."

"Well, let's make a deal. I will keep watching you until you become the hero you want to be. By that time, maybe I will know my answer."

"……I see."

Both of them were silent for a long, long time.

When they were about to leave, she heard him say, "Thank you, Alicia."

It seemed... he took what she said as comfort to him... but she was really serious, she would do what she said, she would keep looking at him as promised, and at the same time find her own answers, and... in her heart, she had always been uneasy about some things about herself.

There is a long way to go and they still have a lot of time.

……

"Alicia, the parliament agreed to your proposal to establish the Fourteen Heroes." The white-haired young man conveyed the parliament's answer to the girl expressionlessly.

"Eh? Didn't they refuse before? Did you also think that I was right, and brought Tianhuo and Mei to convince everyone?" The girl was a little surprised, but this answer was indeed what she wanted, and she even made a joke by the way.

The Fourteen Heroes were formed, and he was in it, once again serving as the leader... In this case, it was more or less possible...

"Feng went to talk to the parliament." The white-haired young man said, "I'm not very clear about the specific content, but the result is that the parliament agreed to the establishment of the Fourteen Heroes, but he also put forward his conditions."

Anyway, he probably didn't want to see me... After that, she never saw him again...

"Oh? What is it?" she asked.

"He doesn't plan to be the leader, nor does he plan to be the deputy leader." The white-haired young man relayed his conditions, "He also said that if necessary, the position of Yingjie doesn't need to be left to him."

"How can that be possible?!" she retorted, "We are the only remaining fusion warriors, the last weapon of mankind. How can we leave him alone..."

The white-haired young man just said indifferently: "Ailishia, I think you need to be clear about one thing. Even if the Heroic System is established, the Fourteenth Heroic is not the Thirteen Fallen Angels after all. What's more, you and I are very clear about the reasons why the Parliament is worried about the Heroic System. If he does not take the position of Heroic, the difficulty of establishing the Heroic System will be much smaller."

She was silent for a while before she said stubbornly, "I don't care. He is also a comrade who has fought side by side with us. Even if he doesn't want to be a leader... he is still our companion and should be a hero!"

The white-haired young man looked at her, then turned away after a while: "I see, I'll tell him."

She looked at the back of the white-haired young man as he left, and was a little dazed for a moment. She knew that they were now like close friends, and it was estimated that among the remaining people, few people still remembered that their relationship was not good at all... and now the communication between her and him could only be relayed by the young man.

Communication...if that can be considered communication...

……

"Finally... we meet again, Feng..."

She stood at the door of the operating room, quietly looking at the young man lying inside. His face was much paler than he remembered, and his originally black hair had turned into the color of his deceased lover... This was the first time she had seen it. After all... before this, she was the only person he didn't want to see.

She finally understood her feelings and found the answer from that year, but... it was too late.

Really... it's too late.

She was watching him as promised, but she didn't even know the side effects of his fusion warrior surgery. She had been watching him all the time, but she didn't even know the pain he had been enduring. She should have had the answer to the original question a long time ago, but she didn't understand it until now.

At this moment, she was looking at him. At this moment, he was the only one in her eyes. She no longer wanted to pay attention to the things around her. She just wanted him to wake up.

But even if she was looking at him now as she did at the beginning, there was no longer any trace of her in his eyes.

"Is it because of the torture of the side effects that makes you so cold even in your sleep? Or is it because you haven't slept for so long that you have forgotten what sleep feels like? Feng...really, you have become a hero just like we promised, a hero...more powerful than Kevin."

"I also want to tell you that I already have the answer to that confession."

"But... this doesn't matter to you anymore, right?"

"I really want to touch you again, but I can't do it... The distance between us is so far that we can never get close again..."

"Even if it's Mobius, even if it's Mei... even if they're together, the final estimate of your survival rate is less than 1%... It's really a familiar probability. During the Seventh Herrscher incident, when Kevin and you decided to participate in the Fusion Warrior Project, that probability was even lower than it is now..."

"Heh... at that time, Kevin did it for Mei, and you... did it for me, but I only found out about this now, and it was Mobius who told me... this is a joke, right? We agreed to keep an eye on you, but in the end, I was the one who knew the least. I didn't know what Lilith knew, and I didn't know what Mobius knew, and even... I still didn't know what Kevin knew... why? Why... did it turn out like this in the end?"

"The probability is obviously higher than the lowest time, and you managed to hold on at that time, but this time, is there anyone who can keep you... Don't die... Okay?"

"do not die……"

……

The moonlight is as warm as in memory, and the stars are still twinkling.

Alicia looked at the person in front of her, and her thoughts were pulled out of her memories. She probably knew the reason why Lilith did this, but... she no longer needed to replay the past in her dreams, even if she could make up for the regrets of the past this time.

The past is called the past because there is no way to go back, so we have to move towards the future.

She walked forward, and she could see that Zhu Yufeng was quite speechless at the moment, after all, she just accepted Lilith's confession in the last dream.

Before he could speak, Alicia gently pressed her index finger on his lips, chuckled and said, "We already know everything, don't we?"

Zhu Yufeng: “?”

Why is this routine wrong? Wait, this person in front of him, is this the real Alicia? But why is she...

"The past, let it be the past, and become our shared memory. Our destinies have intersected once again, and our hearts have long been known to each other, so..." Alicia put down her hands and gently tiptoed Kissed Zhu Yufeng.

Then, she stepped back half a step, put her hands behind her back, and said with a smile: "That's enough."

On the building in the distance.

Lilith shrugged helplessly: "Well, it's not a surprise... But I have to find a good excuse to go to Feng's place tomorrow..."

I looked at it and found that I have been taking leave quite frequently recently. I am helpless. I have been busy with many things and I have to prepare for the final exam. But I also want to say that I am definitely not going to give up. I am very serious about this. This is my first book and I will finish it no matter what.

It's been like this in May and June, so I'll have to add more chapters in July.

At present, it is still expected to be completed before the end of July.

Chapter 251: Fallen Angels All Have That Serious Disease.jpg

"Well……"

Zhu Yufeng opened his eyes. A crystal butterfly flew past his eyes, circled a few times and then landed on the tip of his nose. A colorful bird stood beside his pillow, tilting its head and looking at him.

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

He sat up, startling the butterflies, but they eventually flew around him, and the bird that had been standing next to his pillow flew over his head.

He glanced at Astaroth who was still sleeping beside him, reached out to cover her with the quilt, and got up to wash.

As long as he was in the Fire Moth, Astaroth lived with him. When he was in his own room, he didn't care about Astaroth's so-called abilities, so Astaroth didn't need to wear Velvet's suppressor unless she was going out.

The direct result is that my room has become colorful.

Before becoming the executor of the Chimera Project and consuming the super-mutation factor of Brahmaten, Astaroth's fantasies did not have the ability to materialize, and at most could cause mental harm to humans. After merging with Brahmaten, Brahmaten's ability to create Honkai beasts extended Astaroth's abilities.

When fighting as a fallen angel, Astaroth can usually really call out Fenrir and Jörmungandr, and Astaroth's own dualistic artificial collapse is a bit like Fenrir and Jörmungandr's younger sister, the goddess of death Hela. Because she has the ability to attack mentally, her artificial collapse image depends on the observer's inner thoughts and mood at the time after she has mastered her power.

Some people see a screaming demon from the abyss of hell, while others see a smiling angel with his head bowed and his eyes kind.

Under her control, Astarota's passive mental attack can produce psychological hints to the target according to Astarota's own thoughts. People with weaker mental strength are easily guided by Astarota and then fall into collapse.

This is also the reason why Astaroth was viewed very critically in the later period and was listed as one of the most dangerous fusion warriors of the Fire Moth. At the same time, Astaroth's own personality is also very dangerous to others.

To put it in an analogy, Astaroth is similar to the Black Holy Grail in a certain moon world. She can fulfill the wishes of the wisher, but the way of achieving it and the final result will be a very bad situation. After all, the essence of Astaroth's ability is mental illusion, and the monsters summoned by Brahmaten's ability also belong to the category of alien Honkai beasts. She herself basically accepts everyone, and she will definitely fulfill the wish as long as you make a wish to her.

Someone had promised her an ideal lover, but once he left Astaroth's range, he found out that it was a humanoid Honkai beast, and he looked very ugly...

Cough cough... In short, the person was almost frightened into cardiopulmonary arrest at that moment. I heard that he even kissed him?But even so, even after the Flaming Moth forbade him to enter the deepest place, he still tried to find Astarothe more than once when the fallen angel was performing a mission, and in the end Astarote was so annoying that he did it. A big one, it drives people crazy...

This is the fact. Even though people know that Astaroth's ability is like this in the real world, there are still many people who try to find her and indulge in that illusory world.

So the Fire Moth strictly prohibited others from contacting Astaroth at that time...

After all, not everyone can resist such temptation. This may not be a big deal for Kevin and others, but in the later stages of the fight against Honkai, for ordinary warriors struggling in despair, Astaroth's ability... is similar to the addictive anesthetics commonly used in surgery.

They don't have as much power as Kevin or other fusion warriors, and they basically have no part in the duel with the Herrscher. The future of mankind seems to have little to do with them - there are always people who think so, so they will try to find comfort in the world of illusion, and then sink into it.

"If everyone in the Fallen Angel Team represents a kind of evil, then Astaroth should represent that kind of invisible evil, right? She herself has no ill intentions, but in the end, she always manages to make things like what happened to Apolonia. The difference is that Astaroth probably never really cared about what would happen to other people."

This is Lilith's evaluation of Astaroth.

Everyone in the Fallen Angel Team is more or less infected with that disease, except for Astaroth's evil of inaction. As the leader, she is willing to do anything to achieve her goals at any cost. The deputy leader Lilith is essentially evil for humans. Sira kills as an instinct and is almost an execution machine. Beelzebub is extremely warlike and will never stop fighting to the death. Esmodesm has a serious tendency towards sadism. Roffko is immersed in the despair brought by wisdom all day long. Admire is too rational and everything is the necessary price to pay for fighting the collapse in his eyes. Beffinger is crazy about fanning the flames and takes pleasure in creating divisions and disputes. Baal is arrogant and acts rashly. Abaddon is disdainful and silent about saving the world. Naheima is extremely materialistic. Mostima is keen on teasing the world and snooping on privacy.

Such a team seemed to be quite normal when he was leading it, but taking any one of them out alone would be a disaster...

And speaking of Lilith...

"In last night's dream, the Lilith and Alicia I saw were both real, right? When did I get the power of the Eighth Herrscher? Mobius obviously didn't detect anything... Then it shouldn't be my problem, right? I can still use some of the space-time power, but I can't use the power of the Eighth Herrscher at all. Wait..."

Zhu Yufeng paused as he was brushing his teeth and thinking. If it wasn't his problem, considering that the Eighth Herrscher did have the ability to read memories, and Alicia didn't seem like someone who would put herself in the picture and trick her again, in all the dreams, the only one who didn't get humiliated was Lilith...

It is indeed something she can do!

"It seems that I have to ask Lilith later... Although I don't know why she dragged Alicia into this, but after thinking about it, she is probably the only one who can and will do this." Zhu Yufeng continued to brush his teeth, preparing to ask Lilith later.

It's not wrong for him to think this way, after all, Lilith has a criminal record.

He didn't expect that he had to bring Astaroth to his side to guard against Lilith's night attacks, but it didn't work in reality. Lilith began to attack him in his dreams all night... No wonder Lilith didn't say anything about Alicia's actions that day. It must be because no matter what Alicia did during the day, it didn't affect her possession of the night time, right?

"Ok?"

Suddenly, the screen of the mobile phone placed next to the sink lit up. It was a message from Lilith.

Zhu Yufeng brushed his teeth, picked up his phone and unlocked the screen. Lilith's message was also very simple: "Good morning, Feng. Now that all the fallen angels are at the headquarters, do you want to do another team building together?"

Zhu Yufeng put down his phone and began to wash his face.

"Yes, although I often have dinner with Mostima and Lilith during this period, and I also went to play basketball and baseball with Kevin with Nahema, Baal, and Abaddon... As for Sira, she should have just returned from Africa after completing the cleanup mission... Counting Beelzebub and Esmodesma in the Deep Place, Admiral has been staying at the Third European Research Institute and will only stay at the headquarters during this period. As for Beffinger and Roffko, there should be no problem..."

Although none of the fallen angels had any memories left except for themselves and Lilith, they still left some traces of each other in their subconscious. Mebius speculated that this was because he devoured all the fallen angels in the ascension plan, so he preserved something for them.

Is this also the reason why Mei and Desdobia seem to have no recollection of their past lives at all?

However, there is something a little bit strange about the speed of Meizhan Fengli's party.

The fallen angels' team building... I suddenly got a little excited? This should be the first collective team building of the fallen angels since their rebirth, right?

After all, before this, everyone was basically far away from each other, especially Admiral. In order to consolidate the World Snake's intelligence network in Europe and build the Third Research Institute into the World Snake's base camp, Admiral really couldn't spare the time to leave Europe. This time he came to the headquarters because the World Snake had almost infiltrated Europe, and the Stigmata Project he had been working on had been shelved by himself...

Well, the Stigmata Project... I have to give him a beating later, I can't forget this.

According to Xila, she went to Africa to carry out the task of killing people. This was not the task given to her by the fire moth, but the task of the world snake.After the Seventh Herrscher incident, the ex-senator who was exiled to Africa to mine coal didn't seem to give up, but was actively communicating with some local armed forces.

It is no exaggeration to say that this was the prototype of the subsequent resistance against the Fire Moths.

During the Eighth Herrscher incident in the previous life, there were already signs of the resistance. In addition, the situation in Africa was not very stable to begin with, and Fire Moth did not have enough control over that side, which led to them causing trouble during the Ninth Herrscher incident. After the Ninth Herrscher incident, they simply stopped acting and turned the table over to openly challenge Fire Moth.
