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

"But when the meteorite called the end falls, we will eventually make a choice." Zhu Yufeng said calmly. Qianjie's threat to this extent no longer has any effect on him. Although it is more like Qianjie's unique threatening concern than a threat.

"Heh... So do you want to have a real fight with me right now, Feng?" Qianjie's voice began to become extremely warlike and aggressive.

"If you want to confirm my will and answer, I am always here to accompany you, Qianjie. However, if you lose, you should just move in with us. After all, no matter what, we were both heroes."

"Okay... Then let me see how much you have recovered now compared to you back then!"

the other side.

"If that day comes, I will of course go on the journey with Boss Yu Feng. Death is nothing to be afraid of for me." Mostima leaned against the wall, crossed his arms and said, "After all, my boring life as a civilized trash has become meaningful only since I met Boss Yu Feng."

“Heh…” Lilith chuckled, “Don’t worry, when that day comes, we will all be on the road together with Feng.”

"Does this count as what you promised me?"

"Yes, I promise you, if that day ever comes, I will allow you to die."

Chapter 300: The Only Person

Su sat cross-legged in the observation device of Thousand Worlds and One Vehicle, looking a little serious.

The world bubbles that exist in the quantum sea are divided into two types.

One is that the projection of the intrinsic world on the quantum sea will form a world bubble. This kind of world bubble is generally static and exists for a relatively short time. If it is a "slice" closer to the intrinsic world, then their existence time will be slightly extended, but in the end they will still be annihilated in the quantum sea like bubbles, unless some method is used to continue to exist.

The existence of another form of world bubbles is different from the previous one. At present, the view that Su agrees with more is that those world bubbles are formed by other worlds failing the test of collapse and falling into the quantum sea.

This statement was recognized by Zhu Yufeng. After all, in Zhu Yufeng's impression, he had never come across the concept of "slicing" world bubbles. Instead, he always believed that the world bubbles were formed by the fall of the world on the tree of imaginary numbers. Because later, in order to fulfill his promise to Yulandel, Otto directly connected a world bubble in the quantum sea to the tree of imaginary numbers.

The concept of the Tree of Imaginary Numbers was very vague in the previous civilization and only began to develop in the current civilization. However, due to Zhu Yufeng's confession after his rebirth and some exchanges of information, Mebius and others also had a general concept and basic theory of the Tree of Imaginary Numbers. It's just that the existence of the Tree of Imaginary Numbers has some conflicts with the existence of the Cocoon of the End.

The theory of the tree of imaginary numbers directly provides a way out for the existing theory of the quantum sea, that is, the tree of imaginary numbers is indeed an existence that is opposed to the quantum sea. Therefore, it is not a wise move to use the energy in the quantum sea to fight against the real imaginary tree that exists in the intrinsic world.

Finally, regarding the theory of the Cocoon of the End, with the help of Mei, senior researchers of the Fire Moth, such as Mobius, now agree with Mei's view on the Cocoon of the End. That is, the Cocoon of the End should be a special device made by an advanced civilization to find its own kind, which interferes with the operating laws of the Imaginary Number Tree itself. Therefore, there is not only one Cocoon of the End, and it does not only exist in the Eigenworld. This is why Su can observe similar situations in other so-called "parallel worlds".

In all worlds similar to the Eigenworld, there is no such person as Zhu Yufeng. It seems possible that this guy is the illegitimate child of the Imaginary Number Tree...

All in all, there are many theories about the collapse at this stage, and each one seems to be able to explain the situation, but when combined they always make people feel a little awkward. When people ask Zhu Yufeng how much he knows and why this is happening, Zhu Yufeng first says, "I'm not a researcher, what's the point of asking me?", and then he whispers to himself and says things like "maybe he ate the book", which are incomprehensible. Lilith, who should have understood, did not explain, but only said that Zhu Yufeng really didn't know what the specific situation was.

The essence of the Cocoon of the End that Mei envisioned was a theory put forward by alien civilizations in order to find their own kind. In fact, it also overlapped with the idea that Mebius had made a long time ago, that is, the End they faced in the Battle of the End was just a machine that performed the task of "reincarnation". The Herrscher who truly performed the power of the End, conformed to the concept of "reincarnation" and theoretically should have all the powers of a Herrscher...

It seems to coincide with the power that someone should theoretically possess and his current performance?

Moreover, the Herrscher of the End in the theory of the Tree of Imaginary Numbers is consistent with the predictions of Mei and others about the End in the previous life, that is, the Moonlight Throne Plan can work on the Herrscher of the End, but the actual result is... Even if it is running at self-destructive power and almost cost the life of Vilvi inside, it can only make the End lose 30% of its Honkai energy. And judging from the final result, the End is not very short of that 30% Honkai energy. At most, it will enter a downtime state and will recover after a period of time. During the downtime, Kevin and others tried their best but could not hurt the End at all.

According to the current theory of the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, the true end exists to bring the final judgment to the world. The end born in the cocoon of the end simply opened a back door and borrowed the authority of the end from the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, executing an incomplete "reincarnation" command.

But no matter what, the concept of the Herrscher of the End has been confirmed in the Fire Moth now after the end of the Tenth Herrscher incident. This is one of the main reasons why researcher Yafan urgently proposed to develop the energy of the Quantum Sea a while ago. However, in the current thinking of the researchers of the Fire Moth, there should be a long time before the end comes, it’s just that the existence of the end has been confirmed.

This is also due to the existence of Yuga, which allowed Fire Moth to propose the X-Herder theory very early on. This is the main reason why the theory of the Herrscher of the End was proposed earlier in this life than in the previous life and was widely recognized.

Because of Yuga, the theory that the end is time has been further confirmed. Now almost all the researchers of Fire Moth believe that Yuga is the companion Honkai beast of the Herrscher of the End. Even though Yuga has behaved relatively well so far, the researchers led by Mei still insist on labeling Yuga as an enemy.

According to Mei's theory of the cocoon of the end, Yuga is indeed the enemy of mankind. According to the theory of the end of the imaginary tree, Yuga is also the enemy of mankind. This is also true... After all, Mebius and Velvet, who know the inside story, can't say that Yuga's master has actually been chasing the fire moth all the time, and there is a high probability that he is the end in the theory of the end of the imaginary tree...

However, the reason why Su looked serious now was not because of these things, but because of the anomaly in the quantum sea.

According to existing theories and the practice of his previous life, Su believes that if Zhu Yufeng is the end in the theory of the tree of imaginary numbers, his reset of the world's time is a higher level of reincarnation than the end in the cocoon of the end. After all, in the theory of the tree of imaginary numbers, the tree of imaginary numbers is the essence of the existence of the world. However, because the tree of imaginary numbers is opposed to the quantum sea, the time reset of the intrinsic world within the tree of imaginary numbers should not be able to affect the corresponding time slice before the reset in the quantum sea.

As long as that part of the time slice is found, the connection between time reset and the true power of the end can be proved, which can help Zhu Yufeng and others further understand his identity as a Herrscher.

But here lies the problem:

Su discovered that he could not find the "sliced" world bubbles at that time, but he could find traces of their suspected existence.

This is a very strange phenomenon. The "slice" world bubbles at that time should not have disappeared so quickly, but according to Su's observations and his own analysis, those "slice" world bubbles may have self-annihilated not long after their birth. A few "slice" world bubbles that may have existed for a longer time seemed to be swallowed up by some existence in the quantum sea.

This made Su feel a little tricky. After all, all of the above were just his guesses. Those traces could be said to be coincidences or the real situation, but they could not be used as direct evidence. Science emphasizes rigor, and it is useless to rely on guesses alone.

Afterwards, Su began to look for other time slices of the intrinsic world in the quantum sea. After all, the birth of these "slices" was partly due to the different choices made by the people in them.

Just like Father Otto and Evil Walter in later generations, it was a world bubble that appeared because a person made a choice different from the original world in different time periods.

These choices do not occur in the intrinsic world, but are "possibilities" derived from the imaginary space outside the intrinsic world based on the development of the intrinsic world and the momentary thoughts of the parties involved. Then, because of the different choices at key nodes, they are separated from the intrinsic world and become the "divergence slices" left by the intrinsic world in the quantum sea.

Yes, there are two types of "slice" world bubbles, one is "divergence slice" and the other is "cross-section slice".

"Cross-section slices" are slices that are born following the historical operation of the intrinsic world. The world time inside is close to stillness, while "divergence slices" will continue to run due to different choices until the natural demise of the world bubble. One of Su's main tasks in observing the quantum sea in his previous life was to observe these "divergence slices".

After all, the time of "cross-section slicing" is almost constant, so it has no reference value...

As for the world bubbles formed by other worlds falling into the quantum sea, Su could only say that the probability of finding the information he needed in them was really low... After all, even the physical laws in those world bubbles might not be the same as those in the intrinsic world. Su still remembered the shock he felt when he saw the "Magic Boy Kevin" in it, and his expression as an awakened being almost couldn't be held back.

How did Kevin become like this? What the hell is a magic boy? Fortunately, I am still normal in that world. Although I am still Kevin's friend, I am a student who doesn't know his friend's identity... It's great that there is no weird setting like a magic boy...

For the sake of Kevin's image, Su finally buried the matter deep in her heart and didn't tell anyone, especially Alicia. If she told Alicia, there was a high probability that Alicia would spread the matter everywhere the next day. Even if not, she would definitely try to get Kevin to dress like him in the World Bubble.

However, speaking of Alicia, Su had indeed never seen Alicia in the world bubble of the Quantum Sea, but he did not think too much about what was wrong. After all, in the worlds on other imaginary numbers, Alicia chose to sacrifice herself without exception, so it was easy to explain why there was no Alicia in the world bubble that fell into the Quantum Sea.

Then the problem arose again. Not only did Su fail to find the "cross-section slice" before the world was reset, he also failed to find the "divergence slice" of the world after the current reset.

This is not just a thorny problem, it is a huge problem...

I could clearly find it in my previous life, but I really can’t find it at all in this life?

Su took a deep breath and could only think that he had not "dive" deep enough into the quantum ocean. Although he did not need to go so deep to find the "divergence slice" in his previous life, there are always exceptions to everything now. If he did not "dive" to see, how could he further confirm the details of the abnormal situation?

However, the deeper the "infiltration", the greater the probability of encountering Vita, the crazy woman who lived hundreds of millions of years ago and now. Now Su still feels unconfident whether he can escape Vita's pursuit.

This forced Su to first think about why he couldn't find the "divergence slices", and why the "cross-section slices" of the period after the battle against the end in the previous life disappeared so quickly that he could only guess that those slices should exist.

Su was puzzled by this, and when he was thinking about whether he should take the risk of "diving" to further search for the "divergence slice" and unconsciously flipping through the existing "cross-sectional slices", he suddenly found something wrong. It was as if a light bulb flashed in his mind, making him open his eyes, and then he began to quickly search all the "cross-sectional slices".

"What's going on? In all the 'cross sections'... there's no Alicia and Feng? Um... not even Lilith..."

Su fell into thought again. The connection between these three people could only be that they were all Herrschers. It had been confirmed that Alicia was the Herrscher of Origin, Lilith was suspected to be the Herrscher of Origin, and Zhu Yufeng was presumed to be the Herrscher of the End.

"Is it that the Herrschers of the Eigenworld cannot appear in the Quantum Sea? No, in my previous life, I clearly observed the existence of other Herrschers in the 'Bifurcated Slice', and the 'Fractional Slice' is no exception. Wait... It seems that I have never seen Alicia in the 'Bifurcated Slice'... When I observed the 'Bifurcated Slice' in my previous life, I only observed that the people in it mentioned Alicia, but I have never really seen her in the 'Bifurcated Slice'."

Is it because the choices Alicia makes in each world have never changed, so there is no possibility of a "divergence"?

Or is it that the Herrscher of Origin is so special that even the Quantum Ocean cannot reproduce her reflection? So neither the "Point Slice" nor the "Cross-Section Slice" can find Alicia?

There must be some connection between the origin and the end, but what kind of connection it is has not been confirmed so far. However, this does not prevent Su from making further speculations on this basis.

Can this...be proof that Feng is indeed the Herrscher of the End?

The authority of the end was undoubtedly granted by the Imaginary Tree itself. The creation of the world and the extinction of all things were manifestations of the authority of the end. So, the quantum sea, which does not have the ability to give birth to life on its own, is unable to reproduce the end of the Imaginary Tree? That is why I can't find the world bubble where Feng exists so far?

"If this is really the case... Feng, you are not only the only one in the imaginary world. If you pass away again and we are powerless to do anything about it, we will never be able to find you again, not even your afterimage..."

Chapter 301: Together to Save You

"Ugh……"

Lilith supported her chin and sighed deeply, a rare depressed expression appearing on her face.

"I didn't expect that there would be something that could make you depressed." Alicia stirred the freshly brewed black tea in the cup and said to Lilith. At least in her impression, Lilith would hardly have this kind of expression.

Although this expression did not mean that Lilith was worried about something serious, this was Alicia's intuition.

Lilith glanced at Alicia without answering, then looked away with a somewhat depressed look.

Alicia: "..."

Just now...did Lilith's eyes reveal a meaning of "Can you do it?"

Lilith stirred the tea in her cup with one hand and supported her chin with the other. How long had it been? How long had she been waiting? How long had it been since Lilim was brought to the Fire Moth? It had been so long since the Ninth Herrscher incident and now the Tenth Herrscher incident. It was fine with Alicia, but why hadn't anyone else taken action yet?

They were clearly bringing Lilim and Feng along to run in front of them, so why didn't any of them think of doing anything to Feng? What were they doing? If they didn't do anything to Feng, they couldn't do anything to Feng either... And Alicia seemed to develop immunity faster than expected. What, when did Alicia go to learn how to lie down from Phyllis?

Alicia looked at Lilith in silence. For some reason, she felt offended.

She wanted to increase the intensity of someone, but she never found the right time, and...if she really wanted to increase the intensity, she would be the first one to collapse...

I always feel that... the relationship between two people has progressed to a certain extent. If I want to take it a step further, I don't know how to start...

After Mostima recovered her memory, she had no intention of acting anymore and went straight into the battlefield. Every time she saw Mostima, she would always think of the tragedy of restraint in her previous life and feel very sorry for Mostima. And, yes, this reminded her once again that the tragedy of restraint was still a hurdle between Zhu Yufeng and herself.

Neither she nor he could step out.

Especially what Zhu Yufeng had told her, in front of the Cocoon of the End, the message that the Cocoon of the End directly conveyed to him:

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again.

What exactly did this sentence mean? Was it just what Zhu Yufeng said, that the Cocoon of the End was trying to deceive him? In addition, she discovered that Mobius and the others seemed to be hiding something from her, and it seemed that Zhu Yufeng was also hiding something from them.

Alicia has inquired about it. Some warriors witnessed that Raphael, one of the leaders of the Thousand Herrschers, grabbed Kosmo's hand tightly and said something before he died. Kosmo just said that Raphael was just thanking him for ending his life as a Herrscher, and said that Raphael died as a soldier of the Fire Moth in the end.

Considering Raphael's daily behavior in the Fire Moth, not many people doubted this.

But Alicia was not so easily fooled. Kosmo's ability to hide his emotions was much weaker than Zhu Yufeng's. When Alicia talked to Kosmo about this, it was easy to see that Kosmo had concealed the real information. Only the part about Raphael's death as a soldier was true.

So, what did Raphael say to Kosmo that made everyone hide it from him and Feng?

Zhu Yufeng was also aware of this, but he didn't care much. It seemed that he had guessed what Mobius and the others wanted to hide from him and Alicia, but he didn't seem to be planning to tell Alicia, so Alicia...

I'm really confused!

Just like in the previous life, everyone kept secrets from each other, and after so much secrets, in the end, Alicia found out that she was the one who knew the least...

Damn Kevin, how come in his previous life Kevin knew more about Feng than I did!

Is this good? This is not good! Let's talk it out, why are we back to the way we were in our last life...

Thinking of this, Alicia looked at the vortex she had stirred up in the cup with some depression. She remembered that Mobius had previously speculated that Zhu Yufeng might be the Herrscher of the End who had not yet fully awakened, but he only told herself and others and asked them to keep it secret from Zhu Yufeng. But after Zhu Yufeng had seen the Cocoon of the End, Mobius no longer concealed it from Zhu Yufeng and directly told him about this possibility... So, what was it that Mobius and the others were hiding from herself and Feng now?

It was like a feather gently falling on my heart.

Alicia paused while stirring the black tea. She suddenly thought of a possibility. If the Cocoon of the End could take the initiative to find Zhu Yufeng to communicate, then is it possible that other Herrschers had also been contacted by the Cocoon of the End?

The Cocoon of the End only conveyed one message to Zhu Yufeng after he approached him. As for the other Herrs...is it the same message?

Because the people being kept secret are himself and Feng, and there is only one thing that will happen between himself and Feng in the near future, at the same time as in the previous life, and that is a tragic dilemma.

Tragedy of restraint.

When it comes to the tragedy of restraint, it is easy to think of the message conveyed by the Cocoon of the End.

"The past events... are you referring to the tragedy of constraint? If this is what Raphael said to Cosmo at the end, then Mobius and the others would not tell Feng and me about this matter. Only the tragedy of constraint... is the 'past event' that is only related to Feng and me." Alicia lowered her eyes and thought, "No wonder, in addition to searching for the last dormant Tenth Herrscher, Mobius also notified Michael to undergo a test every day..."

Mobius... is really never very honest... He always says the harshest words, but his actions are quite honest...

If the tragedy of restraint is what has happened, what about what has been done?

All Alicia could think of was the [Last Banquet] she had hosted after the incident with the Twelfth Herrscher. She believed that she and Zhu Yufeng would not break up again this time. But if human civilization was once again in dire straits and destruction was about to come, what should she do?

This question did not bother Alicia, and she gave the answer in her heart almost without hesitation.

She would make the same choice as in her previous life, because she knew that only in this way could she leave hope for the next civilization. However, this time she made this choice not only because she loved humans and human civilization, but also because of the person she loved...

This was not a difficult decision for her. On the contrary, it was because she knew more in this life than in her previous life, and she and Zhu Yufeng understood each other's burdens better, so she made this choice so firmly.

Reluctant? Of course she was reluctant. She loved and loved humans and their civilization so much, and loved and loved the alien traveler who bore the sin of heaven so much. She wanted to walk hand in hand with him to the end, and watch human civilization continue to move forward together.

But if that day really comes, she will still be the one who lets go of the world.

Because he told her that the next civilization is destined to defeat the collapse, because he told her that in the next civilization, more "Human Herrschers" will be born because of her, and there will be more Herrschers who choose to fight for all the beauty in this world... The story of Zhuhuo Yingjie will not be lost in the long river of history, because there is a Herrscher who will step into the paradise of the past and know everything about them.

Is there any news that could make her happier than this?

She didn't think about anything else, nor did she need to think too much. She just believed what he told her and believed everything about him.

Once upon a time, she hesitated in her relationship with him because of her identity as a Herrscher, but he always chose to believe in her... So, now that everything has started over again and they have started over with each other, she will naturally believe in him as well, without reservation.

If such a day really came, if the two of them would eventually be separated again...even though she was extremely reluctant, she knew she had to do it. It was no longer for humanity, but also for him.

Civilization is about to be destroyed, and he no longer needs to fight for his life with the End on the battlefield on the moon like in his previous life. She hopes that he can continue to live and witness everything of the next civilization on her behalf. When the seed of "humanity" she planted blooms in the hearts of the rulers of the next civilization, it will also be... her confession to him after tens of thousands of years.

Because... that's what she agreed with him, right? He said he would definitely save his own fate, and she also said she would definitely save his fate.

"I'm sorry, Feng. If that day really comes, I might... break your promise... But, I promised you that I would save you and let your life continue instead of staying in the final battle. I'm sorry..."

Lilith shifted her gaze again to Alishia, who was lost in thought and seemed to be in a depressed mood. She looked at Alishia quietly, watching her change from being a little depressed at the beginning to having firm determination in her eyes at the end.

Lilith picked up the cup and took a sip of the black tea in it. She quickly guessed what Alicia was thinking. Well... it was faster than expected. At least she was no longer as hesitant as she was in her previous life.

When Lilith heard Zhu Yufeng say that the Cocoon of the End conveyed to him, she had actually thought of the tragedy of restraint and the final banquet, and thought that the day when civilization might be destroyed would still come, but she didn't care. As long as she had Feng, it was enough, and she didn't need anything else.
