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

"Feng, you don't look very well." Lilith looked at Zhu Yufeng and said, "What are you still worried about?"

"I still feel something is wrong. Not long after we entered the Divine Grace Barrier, Lionel and his men were hit by a tide of Honkai beasts. Now both inside and outside the barrier are in a battle... Although it could be a coincidence, I still feel something is wrong." Zhu Yufeng frowned and said, "We still have to resolve the matter inside the Divine Grace Barrier as soon as possible."

"I... feel the same way too." Alysia whispered, "Everything seems too coincidental, and too reasonable..."

The appearance of the Honkai tide was to force Lionel and his men to fight back and do their best to protect Su and the others from interference, and to maintain the exploration of the Divine Grace barrier by the fusion warriors. It seemed like a coincidence, but it was not without reason. However, according to the information passed on by Su, Lionel had to mobilize some of the fusion warriors in the Divine Grace barrier to suppress the Honkai tide outside because of the huge size of the Honkai tide.

If what has happened will happen again, then will the tragedy of restraint that happened in the previous life really be so easy to get over this time?

"But... I really feel that the effect of this Divine Grace Barrier is getting stronger..." Paduo scratched his head and said, "I feel that my physical strength is being consumed faster and faster. Doesn't everyone feel the same way?"

Zhu Yufeng looked at the others. He really didn't feel anything. Lilith shrugged, indicating that she didn't have that feeling either. Alicia also shook her head, indicating that she didn't have that feeling either.

Zhu Yufeng looked at Ying again. He, Alicia and Lilith were all Herrs, so it was normal that they couldn't feel it. But Ying should be able to sense it, right?

Ying was silent for a moment, then said uncertainly: "Maybe... the effect of the Divine Grace Barrier is slightly increasing, so I don't have any reaction, right? If Phyllis is right, maybe we can move quickly in this direction for a while, and maybe we will get the answer."

Zhu Yufeng glanced at Xila and Mostima again. Nahaima and the others were not on his side, but on Kevin's side. It seemed that except for himself, all the members of his team were girls...

Xila and Mostima didn't feel much either.

"Maybe... it's because I'm the weakest one in this team..." Padu poked his finger, "It's also my first time entering the Divine Grace Boundary, so..."

"No, I believe in your judgment." Zhu Yufeng said, "Pado, you don't have to feel inferior. You are already an excellent warrior now. Perhaps it is because we have all entered the Divine Grace Boundary before, so we have certain expectations for this barrier and thus ignored this change."

Although Xila has no memory of his previous life, he is still affected to some extent. In addition, Xila's judgment of the situation is not enough. In most cases, Xila behaves like a killing machine that executes orders without considering the process and consequences.

In addition, Zhu Yufeng still believed in Pado's good luck. If it was Pado who proposed this idea, it might really be the case.

"So assuming that what Phyllis said is right, if we just search in the direction where the effect of the Divine Grace Barrier gradually increases, could the source be the Ruler of Constraint?" Alicia guessed.

"Su, has there been any changes in the Divine Grace Barrier?" Zhu Yufeng contacted Su and asked.

"No, Padu's guess is very likely correct. Several other warriors have also suggested that the effect of the Divine Grace Barrier is gradually increasing." Su's voice sounded, "I just wanted to tell you this. Judging from the paths of the warriors who have said this, you will all converge at the same point in the end. In other words... this final gathering place may really be the location of the Ruler of Constraint."

"After all, it is only incomplete power, so the closer to the power, the more obvious its effect will be?" Zhu Yufeng thought, but since Su confirmed what Pado said, then he just needs to hurry on his way to confirm the result. The uneasy feeling in his heart could not be shaken off, making him a little irritated and wanting to end the battle here quickly.

The outer perimeter of the divine grace barrier.

"What? The communication signal was interfered with?" Lionel frowned, "Has the Honkai Beast evolved this ability?"

"Yes, sir." A soldier said, "We have confirmed that several alien Honkai beasts have appeared in the Honkai beast tide. The strong electromagnetic waves they emit have interfered with the operation of our equipment, making it impossible for us to contact the headquarters now."

"Immediately notify all fusion warriors outside the Divine Grace Barrier to prioritize decapitation operations against those interfering alien Honkai beasts. We must restore contact with the headquarters!" Lionel ordered.

After the soldiers left, Lionel looked in the direction of the headquarters. A large force of fusion warriors was concentrated here at the Divine Grace Barrier. The outer command center was also impacted by the tide of Honkai beasts, and alien Honkai beasts that could interfere with communications appeared... If we look at it from a strategic perspective, the ultimate goal of all this is the headquarters?

Although Dr. Mei and Wei Wei are both here to conduct field surveys of the Divine Grace Boundary, there are still a large number of researchers and senior executives at the headquarters. Will the remaining Tenth Herrscher take advantage of this to take action? But there are also many fusion warriors stationed at the headquarters...

After thinking it over again and again, Lionel decided to suppress this speculation and the current situation for the time being. If he told this to the fusion warriors in the barrier, it would inevitably cause anxiety and lead to some hasty actions, which might play into Honkai's hands.

Fire Moth Headquarters.

Hen looked back in the direction of the headquarters and secretly clenched the communicator in his hand. He was the person assigned to carry the communication device to the outside world to send signals. He was the only fusion warrior to carry out this mission. There was no way. A Herrscher suspected to be another eleventh Herrscher attacked the headquarters and cut off the connection with the outside world. The number of fusion warriors stationed in the headquarters was not enough, and the number of people who could be sent to the outside world was extremely limited.

And this does not mean it is safe. The Herrscher has made corresponding preparations for someone to escape and contact the outside world. Some warriors have already paid the price of their lives to prove that the closer to the outside world, the more obvious the suppressive effect of the Divine Grace Barrier on energy. Those scientific researchers and warriors in the outer circle... may have been wiped out.

It is difficult for ordinary people to survive under the suppression of the Divine Grace Barrier, and only fusion warriors can do it.

So, Hen took the initiative to take on this job.

As an experienced veteran, Hen still has some points. He can make corresponding countermeasures in crisis situations, and he is also the strongest among the remaining fusion warriors. What's more, most of the other fusion warriors who remain in the Fire Moth are young. The more they stay, the greater their hope of survival.

"Grayshus... this time, Daddy doesn't even dare to promise you that he will come back..." Hen smiled bitterly in his heart. Because of the communication blockage, he couldn't even say goodbye to his wife and daughter...

Hen knew very well that he would most likely die on this trip, so before setting off again, he entrusted Mebius to convey his last words to Grayshu and Blanca.

"We must contact Feng and the others!"

Chapter 311 Dilemma

In the Visatan area, within the Divine Grace barrier.

"I feel like... it's getting harder and harder to breathe..." Padu said while panting heavily, "Brother Yufeng, why do you look like nothing's wrong?"

"Compared to the Divine Grace Barrier in my previous life, the current suppression level is still within the range I can adapt to. However, if this trend continues, perhaps when we reach the Herrscher of Constraint, the suppression effect of the Divine Grace Barrier will most likely be at the same level as in my previous life." Zhu Yufeng said as he looked at the road ahead. "If that's the case... Paduo, for your safety, and for the safety of others... Su, please notify the other fusion warriors to stop moving forward. Leave the Herrscher of Constraint to us."

Coincidentally, the location where the Divine Grace Barrier has the strongest effect is the central area of ​​the entire barrier. In his previous life, Michael was not in the central area. Instead, after unfolding the Divine Grace Barrier, he randomly found a collapsed church and went in.

"How about that..."

"Don't be so stubborn, Padu. Retreating is not cowardice, and it is not shameful." Zhu Yufeng looked back at Padu and said, "Being reckless and aggressive is not bravery either."

"Yes, little Padu, you really don't have to follow us to such a deep place." Mostima shrugged and said, "There is no need to force yourself to be a hero. Being a hero is never something that can be achieved by showing off."

Paduo was silent for a while, then said: "I don't understand those great principles, and I have never thought about becoming a great hero, but... I don't want to hide behind you, Brother Yufeng! I know very well that at the time of the Final Battle, I used up all my luck in this life to open that 'door'. If it weren't for you, Brother Yufeng, after opening the 'door', I would have already..."

Zhu Yufeng looked at Paduo in silence.

When Paddo's emotions are particularly strong, she will change her self-reference from "we" to "I", just like what she said to Mei at the end of Paradise.

Zhu Yufeng still remembers Paduo's words until now: "Sister Yayi, I don't want to die..."

Because... at the time of the final battle, after opening the "door", when he was closest to death, Padu also said something similar: "Brother Yufeng, I really... still don't want to die..."

He heard it, and Padu also knew that she would die if she opened the "door", but she went anyway, exhausting all her luck and risking her life to open the "door". Only when nothing could be changed did she follow the instinct of life's fear of death and say those words.

Zhu Yufeng heard it and remembered it.

Who would want to die unless they have completely lost hope and are helpless?

Paddo could choose not to go to the Final Battle, but for Mei, opening the "door" would become more difficult and hopeless. If Paddo didn't want to, no one could force her, but she made this choice herself.

So now, why was she standing here? Why did she insist on following him towards that extremely dangerous road ahead?

"If it's for me... you should go back. I don't want any of you to be in danger." Zhu Yufeng thought to himself.

"That's why I said you never count..." Lilith's voice sounded in my mind, "How can Phyllis be as simple as you think?"

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

When will Lilith do it again... Never mind, there's no point in worrying about it. Just get used to it. If you're not used to it, it won't affect Lilith, so you can only lie down and let it go.

Isn't it as simple as you think?

Zhu Yufeng thought about the training that he had witnessed Paduo go through over the years. Although she would occasionally slack off, Paduo had always been serious about her training. Her progress was visible to the naked eye, but he always tended to bring her back to her past life.

So, are we the ones who are clinging to the past and holding back from moving forward?

Paduo looked into Zhu Yufeng's eyes and said, "I don't want to hide behind you anymore. I... I am also a Fire Chaser and a reserve member of the Fallen Angel. So, this time, I... want to fight with you all, and with you, Brother Yufeng! I'm not trying to be brave. I can do it!"

Alicia looked at the girl's stubborn eyes, then looked at Zhu Yufeng. Although she felt a little strange, "Shouldn't the 11th Herrscher subjugation war be her and Feng's home court?", she also felt what Padu was thinking, so she was ready to speak up for it.

"I understand." Zhu Yufeng retracted his gaze, "I... believe what you said."

Lilith looked at Alicia, Padu and Zhu Yufeng with a look of anticipation. Logically, the protagonists of this crusade should undoubtedly be Alicia and Zhu Yufeng, but the occurrence of this episode...

"Heh... As expected, world-class luck can sometimes be unreasonable... But it's not Alicia's fault for not performing well. Who made the battle against the Herrscher of Constraint so dull? There was no excitement at all. I found it boring. It seems that we have to hope for a direct battle with the Herrscher of Constraint~"

Compared to Zhu Yufeng's doubts, Lilith was just curious whether the so-called "something else" included the tragedy of restraint. If this continued, there would be no tragedy of restraint...

After all, she had never loved the world or civilization. She only poured all her feelings into one person.

"Then let's continue." Zhu Yufeng said, "Be careful to reduce the consumption of Honkai energy. In the Divine Grace Boundary, Honkai energy cannot be restored. Once the Honkai energy is exhausted, the fusion warrior will become the same as an ordinary person."

"Hey, Brother Yufeng, you've said it before. I've always cherished my life, and I definitely won't try to be so strong!"

"Hmph... then you must remember what you said." Zhu Yufeng raised the corner of his mouth slightly and continued on his way.

In the previous life, in the Divine Grace Barrier, everyone could only walk in it, because every extra step they took consumed the Honkai energy stored in themselves. For other people, if they wanted to reduce the consumption of Honkai energy, they could only try to reduce the intensity of activities in the Divine Grace Barrier. If they ran in it, it would intensify the consumption of Honkai energy and they would die quickly.

Because within the Divine Grace Barrier, all forms of energy will be suppressed, the reason why fusion warriors can move is because they have the protection of their own Honkai energy and the resistance of the Divine Grace Barrier. The reason why fusion warriors have physical fitness far superior to that of ordinary people is also because the huge amount of energy they consume more than ordinary people is supplied by Honkai energy. Therefore, if they move vigorously within the Divine Grace Barrier, the energy that cannot be replenished will have to be consumed by Honkai energy. However, the less Honkai energy is used, the more it is, which is no different from accelerating death.

But now the strength of this divine grace barrier is not enough to reach the level of Michael, so there is no need to worry for the time being.

Besides, the reason why Zhu Yufeng hurried on his way was that he was really worried. Although he didn't know why, he couldn't let go of his worry unless he killed the Ruler of Constraint.

Speaking of which, we saw a lot of different kinds of Honkai beasts that can move in the Divine Grace Boundary along the way, but no warriors have ever seen Gabriel, the Judgment-level Honkai beast that we saw in our previous life. Is it because the Herrscher of Constraint is incomplete that the companion Honkai beast has not appeared? Or is Gabriel with the Herrscher of Constraint at this moment?

Fire Moth Headquarters, Observation Center.

Einstein leaned against the console, and the researchers around her fell to the ground. She stared at the red-haired girl with closed eyes in front of her, and said in a low self-deprecating voice: "I didn't expect that the first place to be attacked by the Ruler of Constraint was the Observation Center..."

"Don't get me wrong, I just 'briefly' asked others where the person in charge of this place is." The red-haired girl said with some melancholy, "They said you were here, what a pity... Obviously there is such a good opportunity, but in the end you are the only one who can be found. However, you should tell me where the other people like you are, right?"

"Is that so..." Einstein smiled, "Then you will be disappointed."

When people are facing death, they often have a strong desire to survive, so Einstein would not blame those researchers who were about to die for revealing their location. Instead, she was more grateful that Mei and Lionel were not in the Fire Moth now.

As an ordinary person, Mei's wisdom is far superior to his. Even if he died here today, as long as Mei is still alive, there is still hope for mankind. What's more, Dr. Mebius may not be able to do anything to the Herrscher of Constraint. She is a fusion warrior. Then there is Lionel. He is the only ordinary member of the Fire Moth who has combat experience and sharp eyesight. He cannot get into trouble either.

So, I was the only one who died. I am really... so lucky.

Einstein has discovered that the range of the Divine Grace Barrier not only becomes stronger as it goes further out, but it also becomes stronger near the Ruler of Constraint. It's just that the Ruler of Constraint wanted to get information from him, which allowed him to survive.

She still had some time left in her life, and she had to do something within that time...but here, all the equipment had failed, and she had no way of transmitting any information to the outside world.

However, she didn't need to convey anything to the outside world. She had already done what she could do.

"Oh? It seems you don't want to say it." The Herrscher shrugged, "But it doesn't matter, the others said the same thing at first, but they all spoke up in the end."

Einstein said nothing.

Suddenly, it felt like someone was gripping my heart tightly. It began to hurt violently, and my breathing became very difficult, as if I had to use up all my strength to complete that short breath.

Einstein immediately figured out what was going on. The ability of the Divine Grace Barrier was to quickly suppress all kinds of energy, but this Herrscher slowed down the process. In other words, he was now like a drowning person, experiencing the feeling of being deprived of life bit by bit...

"Really? Are you still trying to be brave? Everyone else has said it by now~" The Herrscher tilted his head, "Or is it that you are in a higher position than them and have a more stubborn temper? But it doesn't matter, I believe you will say it~"

The pain in his body intensified. Einstein, who was almost losing consciousness but was forced to stay awake, realized that the power of the Ruler of Constraint was not only to suppress energy, but she seemed to be able to control the flow of energy.

But Einstein just showed a mocking smile. She looked at the Herrscher. Even though the scene in front of her eyes had begun to blur and her whole body was in pain, she used all her strength to say the only dirty word she had ever said in her life to the Herrscher: "F****."

Another place.

The environment in the villa was not as silent as other places, but was filled with the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds. Blanca looked at Astaroth who was reading silently with concern. Mebius had just come here not long ago. After taking a look at the situation here, he told her, Lilith, Gretchen and Ling not to leave the villa, and left in a hurry.

Danzhu and Cangxuan also came with Mobius, and they were also left here by Mobius.

As for what exactly happened, Danzhu and Cangxuan refused to reveal anything to her. Every time she tried to get Danzhu to talk, Cangxuan would immediately cover his sister's mouth. In the end, Danzhu simply kept silent and took the child away.

Something very serious must have happened outside...

Danzhu and Cangxuan were here to keep an eye on themselves and other children so that they would not wander around.

But what is her husband doing now? Although she failed to get information from Danzhu, Danzhu's expression betrayed her. Hen's current situation may be extremely dangerous.

Also, Danzhu and Cangxuan were not friends at all times, but they were always in love, and they always kept in touch with each other.

In other words, the reason why this villa is safe and sound now is purely because Astaroth is here.

So what kind of pressure is this child under now?

Just as Blanca was thinking about this, someone knocked on the door of the villa and entered. Blanca looked over and saw a huge crowd of people outside the door. Blanca knew them. Most of them were researchers of the Fire Moth and people from the family quarters.

Astaroth raised her eyes, glanced at them briefly, then looked away and continued reading.

"Everyone, go in and take shelter first. The villa has enough space. Believe us, we will be able to handle things quickly!" Desdobia said, and then she looked at Astaroth. Danzhu stood up almost in an instant, and was about to say something when Cangxuan pushed him down.

"Listen to Astaroth." Cang Xuan said.

Astaroth turned the page of the book and simply said, "I don't want to make too much noise."

She glanced at Lilim again and continued, "Nothing can happen to her."

"We know." Cang Xuan whispered, "Sorry, Astaroth..."

If Feng knew about this when he came back, he would really tear his own hands apart...

Protecting so many people in the Divine Grace Barrier at the same time would definitely be a huge drain on Astaroth. If anything happened to her, Feng would definitely tear her hands apart, absolutely...

Desdobia might at least not say anything on the surface for Kosmo's sake...

"I will probably be scolded to death by Feng when he comes back..." Destobia smiled bitterly in her heart. Mobius's initial opinion was to protect the existing Fire Moth researchers as much as possible. There is no news from Dr. Einstein yet. Mobius went to inform him himself, but these people in the nearby family quarters... It should be considered as their own decision...

Suddenly, Desdobia looked up and saw alien Honkai beasts flying all over the sky. After the last person entered, Desdobia closed the door and forcibly used Honkai energy to lift herself into the sky. She couldn't do what Astaroth could do. All she could do was fight with all her might and not let Astaroth consume any more Honkai energy.

Suddenly, she saw someone on the roof: "Miss Eden?"

"Don't worry, I will fight alongside you." Eden smiled calmly, holding the Harmony of the Stars in his hand.
