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

The important reason for this is probably the existence of the two major families of Kaslana and Shaniyat...

It’s not that the Forerunners hadn’t thought about intervening with force, but the frequency of collapse tended to increase over time, almost forcing them to take action only when their survival was in danger.

This incident also caused quite a headache for the remaining pioneers.

It was at this time that Aponia proposed to Kevin to start the Stigmata Project, a plan to protect civilization and should not be used unless absolutely necessary. However, Kevin knew that the relevant information of the Stigmata Project had been destroyed by Mei long ago. If he started the research from scratch, he would certainly not be able to hide it from others, and the resistance he would encounter would certainly be enormous.

"Why are you so sure that Mei has destroyed everything?" Aponya said softly, "Mei is a very rational person, we all know that, right? She would not easily give up such a plan to protect civilization, so she may have left something behind at the end, but we have not carefully looked for it."

"Impossible, Mei told me before..." Kevin suddenly stopped talking and fell silent.

"Ellie has fallen into a long sleep, and Mebius is missing. Among the current Forerunners, who else can stop you from launching the Stigmata Project?" Aponia said, "Do you think Mei will consider such a situation?"

Kevin didn't speak to Aponya again and left.

"He has wavered. It would be better to say that he has not taken any action before because he has no plan for the Stigmata Project." A voice came from the shadows, "For Kevin, this war can only be won, not lost."

"No, I think Kevin may have wanted to start the Stigmata Project a long time ago, but he hasn't made up his mind yet. All our words now only reinforce this idea in his mind."

"Heh...what about you? Aponya, what are you thinking about? Or do you and Kevin have the same opinion?"

"Perhaps. Maybe I just want to grasp the last straw left by a dying person 50,000 years ago. He should not have stayed in that era, nor should he be forgotten by the world."

"...Yes, it shouldn't be like this. The world has no right to forget him... Kevin can find the information about the Stigmata Project as long as he is willing to look for it."

The person who made the sound disappeared into the shadows, and when I looked again, he was gone.

Aponia sighed softly, she raised her head and looked at the blue sky outside. The sun was pouring in front of her, but she did not take a step forward. Instead, she turned and walked into the darkness.

Kevin, feeling somewhat upset, found his best friend Su and asked him about the progress of the Hengsha project, but all he got was a sigh.

"In the end, is there nothing we can do?" Kevin asked.

"No, there are still things we can do." Su said, "The Spark Project is still going on, and we should also trust the humans of this civilization."

But I can't wait until then.

Kevin thought about this and asked again: "Is there still no trace of Feng in the observation of the quantum sea?"

Su frowned, somewhat confused, and said, "Kevin, we knew this a long time ago. He can't leave any projection in the Quantum Sea."

And the intrinsic world we live in is also forgetting him.

"...I know, I was just asking."

The knight threw the black and white lance in his hand, and it pierced through the body of the giant beast in front of him like a meteor. The black silk thread began to spread from the place where the lance pierced, and the body of the giant beast disintegrated and dissipated in the gradually spreading black line.

The knight walked up to the lance and pulled it out from the soil. As the knight moved, several branches grew out from the place where the lance had fallen, and then white flowers bloomed.

"This is the Honkai beast that is rumored to be causing trouble in this area... After we get rid of this one, this area should be more peaceful from now on." The knight said as if muttering to himself.

It seemed that the previous battle made the knight wearing the helmet feel a little stuffy. He stretched out his hand to take off the helmet on his head, revealing a beautiful face as bright as the bright moon, and his long silver hair fell apart. In this era, no one would have thought that the knight who had just fought with the giant dragon that had brought disaster to the country and killed it was actually a girl, right?

The girl's beauty was enough to put the princesses of all nations to shame. Her silver hair glowed with a soft blue hue in the sunlight, just like her eyes, which were as clear and azure as the sky.

"Well done, Lancelot. You have grown very quickly." A gentle voice sounded not far away. "You should be the most outstanding member of the Shaniyat family in the past few hundred years."

The girl shifted her gaze over there, and a young man with closed eyes and a face that could be mistaken for a girl walked out of the woods.

"Teacher." Lancelot immediately placed one hand across her chest and bowed to the young man. "Why are you here?"

The young man was her teacher. When she was still an infant, her parents had already sacrificed their lives in defeating the behemoth Honkai beast like the one she was defeating today. It was for this reason that the teacher adopted her, raised her, and taught her all kinds of knowledge and combat skills. In the end, she lived up to her teacher's expectations and picked up the Divine Key, Heiyuan Baihua, which had been passed down from generation to generation in the family, and became the new user of Heiyuan Baihua.

But... after she came of age and took over the position of head of Shanyiat, she rarely saw her teacher again.

She knew very well that the teacher had things he needed to do, so she was also surprised by the teacher's appearance today.

"Lancelot, have you ever heard of the Kingdom of Camelot on the other side of the strait?" asked the young man.

Lancelot thought for a moment, then replied, "Of course I know something."

The Kingdom of Camelot is located in the British Isles and has long been invaded by foreign races. However, the Shaniyat family has never paid attention to or intervened in the fights between humans, so she has only heard about them.

However, since it was her teacher who mentioned it, it must be that something unusual happened on the British Isles on the other side of the strait, so she immediately asked, "Did a Honkai beast appear there that the humans there can't contend with? Do I need to set off immediately to defeat the Honkai beast there?"

Fighting against the Honkai beasts that humans cannot contend with is a common occurrence for Lancelot. Ordinary people of this era are too weak, and only a few are qualified to become knights who can contend with those Honkai beasts. As a thousand-year-old noble family, almost everyone in the Shaniyat family is a knight who fights against the Honkai.

However, it was precisely because they had been at the forefront of the fight against Honkai for many years that Shaniyat suffered heavy losses in a large-scale battle against a tide of Honkai beasts in order to protect humanity more than a decade ago. The young ones had not yet grown up, while the old and the young were almost all killed in battle. Lancelot's parents died in the final decisive decapitation operation.

With the end of the battle, the surrounding nobles' coveting of the family's territory and wealth made the Shaniyat family precarious for a while, but fortunately, the "Black Abyss" in the dark still retained some combat power. At the same time, Kaslana and Apokalis, who were Shaniyat's allies, intervened and interfered, so that no major chaos was caused in the end.

And now, the children who were still young at the time have gradually grown up, and the Shaniyat family has gone through the most difficult time, especially after Lancelot officially took over the position of head of the family. The nobles around who were still unwilling to give up finally witnessed how sharp the sword of the Shaniyat family was. Under the deliberate guidance of the Apokalis family and the joint attack of the vassal families of the Shaniyat family, the nobles who once coveted the Shaniyat family either paid the price in blood or completely surrendered.

"It's not that there are Honkai beasts that they can't deal with." The young man sighed softly and said, "On the contrary, according to my observation, the frequency and intensity of Honkai beasts appearing in the British Isles are stronger than those in the European continent, but... so far, the British Isles have not fallen because of this. Perhaps something bad happened between the people there."

"Even you, the teacher, can't observe it?" Lancelot was a little surprised. "You mentioned the Kingdom of Camelot before. Is it because the King Arthur who now rules Camelot caused the changes in the British Isles? If necessary, the Shaniyat family can form a British expeditionary force in France..."

"There's no need to make such a big fuss, Lancelot." The young man said, "The principle of the Shaniyat family is to try not to interfere in the fights between ordinary humans. Under the premise that everything has not been investigated clearly, we must not act rashly."

"Then...you mean..."

"Lancelot, my excellent student, I need you to go to Camelot in person as a knight, enter King Arthur's court, and observe King Arthur and the entire kingdom. Based on your observations, I will proceed with the next deployment." The young man's expression became a little serious. "Of course, you must also act carefully and not act rashly, especially... pay attention to the court magician."

"I understand, teacher. I will pay attention to it." Lancelot nodded and said, "Then I will set off for Britain today."

"Sometimes you may feel powerless alone, Lancelot, you need other companions." said the young man.

"I will remember all your teachings in my heart." Lancelot said again with her head down.

After the young man finished explaining what happened, he disappeared into the woods. Lancelot stood there silently for a while. She shifted her gaze to the ground which looked a little messy due to her recent battle with the behemoth. She reached out and grasped the handle of the Black Abyss White Flower's gun and inserted the tip of the gun into the ground. As the warm white light came on, new plants grew on the torn ground, and the plants quickly repaired the messy environment. Soon, the place returned to peace and tranquility, and white irises bloomed all around.

Lancelot let out a long breath. She was very satisfied with the scene before her. Then she began to think about how to fulfill her teacher's instructions.

What Lancelot said before about forming a British expeditionary force was not a joke. With the influence of the Shaniat family, plus the Apocalis family as the Bishop of Heaven's Mandate, not to mention one expeditionary force, several can be formed. This is also the truth that Lancelot summed up when dealing with those nobles over the years.

A strong fist is more effective than anything else.

"If I want to find a more suitable companion..." Lancelot stroked her chin and thought for a while, "Then I can only find Gallewater..."

Garerwater Kaslana, the current head of the Kaslana family, has a good relationship with him. He has the Black Abyss and White Flower, and Garerwater has the Holy Judge of Skyfire. Considering the combat power, it should be more than enough.

Her gaze fell on the battlefield that she had repaired. The emperor-level Honkai beasts on the European continent had basically been cleared out by her. As for those Honkai beasts in the north, Dietrich was there, and if anything happened, the teacher would definitely notify her, so it should be fine for her and Galwater to leave.

On the other side, the young man was walking towards a lake, when suddenly a voice sounded behind him: "I didn't expect, Su, that even you have started to use these little tricks."

Su didn't look back, but just said: "Wei Weiwei, Lancelot is the best candidate, you and I both know it."

"That's right, whether it's her martial arts or her identity." Wei Weiwei said with her arms folded across her chest, "But I think her identity is more important than her martial arts, right?"

Sue didn't answer.

"She is not only the child you watched grow up, she is also the orphan of Shanyat who was brought back from the battlefield by Kevin himself." Weiwei said meaningfully, "If she goes to Britain like this, even if Kevin notices her coming, as long as Lancelot is not too reckless, he will not do anything to Lancelot. In this respect, she is indeed the most suitable candidate."

Wei Wei paused, then continued, "At the same time, if Kevin really acted as we thought in the worst case scenario, he would not do anything to Lancelot. On the contrary, Lancelot would be very safe. Because he is the strongest person in the current civilization. If we are enemies with Kevin now, what do you think our chances of winning are, Su?"

"With Alicia and the [Future] missing, facing Kevin who has the [Past], even if the remaining heroes act together, their chances of winning are almost zero."

"Yeah, almost zero, not to mention that Ying doesn't even want to deal with us right now. The only real combatants on our side, apart from Hua who is far away in Shenzhou, are Qianjie, Kosmo, Desdobia and Padu."

Su pursed her lips.

He knew very well that although they had an absolute advantage in numbers, it was useless in front of Kevin. In the final battle, only Kevin was qualified to fight alongside the fallen angel. How could others who were not even qualified compete with Kevin?

"If the worst happens..." Su was silent for a moment before saying, "Even if that happens, we must stop Kevin."

"So...what I said before was based on my reasoning, but you, Su, as Kevin's best friend and the one who knows Kevin best among the pioneers, do you really think so?" Wei Wei continued, "Or did you just throw Lancelot to Britain as a bait to attract Kevin's attention so that Kevin would misjudge that we don't actually know his plan yet?"

Hearing this, Su turned around, opened his eyes and looked at Wei Wei: "You are right, Wei Wei, based on my understanding of Kevin, even if he used the [Past] to hinder my use of the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle to observe Britain, making it impossible for me to know the specific situation in Britain, but... since he did this, he must have acted according to the worst case scenario we expected."

"So you let Lancelot go over there and be the 'bait'?"

"She is my excellent student. I believe she will be fine. If anything happens, I have a way to save her." Su said.

"Ah……"

Weiwei didn't comment.

The two were silent for a while before Wei Wei spoke again: "The question now is, everything is based on the fact that Kevin has already started to implement the Stigmata Plan. What exactly pushed Kevin to do this?"

"You mean... among the current pioneers, there are people who share the same philosophy as Kevin?" Su frowned slightly. When he mentioned the "Stigmata Project", a figure quickly emerged in his mind. "Are you suspecting that the missing Mebius is also involved in this?"

"There is no doubt that Mobius is a big suspect, or rather... no one else can reproduce the Stigmata Project file that was destroyed by Mei." Weiwei said, "Not to mention, the Stigmata Project was originally designed by her. If I remember correctly, she was forced by Mei to revise the 15th version of the plan."

"It is indeed possible that Mebius... But given Mebius's personality, she may not necessarily seek cooperation with Kevin. There may be other middlemen in the middle." Su thought, "For example... Aponia."

"If Aponya says so, then this is indeed possible..." Weiwei sighed, "But speculation is just speculation after all. We have too little information at this stage. Kevin is the only executor in the open, but his collaborators are always in the dark... Compared to the collaborators in the dark, if we want to make any plans, we will be very passive."

Su did not reply. In fact, he had already outlined a preliminary response plan in his mind, but... as Velvi said, both Mobius and Aponia were suspected of cooperating with Kevin, but at the same time, Velvi herself could not rule out this suspicion. After all... in addition to Mobius, Velvi herself could also restore the destroyed Stigmata Project file data.

And for Weiwei, as Kevin's best friend, is she also equally untrustworthy?

And... Alicia was the first one to disappear among the pioneers. After Mavis passed away for unknown reasons, for Alicia, wasn't this the disappearance of the last bit of care that Feng had left for her in this world? Would she be involved?

In addition, who is the Midrash who exists like a shadow and whose true identity has not been identified so far?

Interlude: Purple Kite

first encounter

Apokalis Mansion.

"I've been working on this all night, and now I can finally fly..."

The young child stretched out his hands and released the small plane he made. After several test flights, the small plane was finally able to fly into the sky. However, before the small plane had flown for long, it was hit by a stone and fell on the other side of the courtyard wall.

"Doing these boring things again." His brother's somewhat contemptuous voice sounded behind him.

The boy pursed his lips. He was used to the sarcasm from his brothers. If he refuted them, they would only laugh at him more harshly. So he planned to climb the wall which seemed a little too high for him and go to the other side to pick up his little plane.

But his body was too weak, he could not climb up the wall at all, and finally fell to the ground, leaving his hands red and sore.

"Don't waste your time. Your health is so poor. You're lucky to be alive." The elder brother's voice was full of disappointment. "How could I have such a useless brother like you!"

The boy was at a loss, he was not as active as his two brothers, he was not born in good health, his only hobby was to stay in his room and tinker with small things, he was also the least welcomed son in the Apokalis family, and now his hobby was denied by his brothers, the things he spent a lot of time making were smashed by his brothers with stones, and he couldn't even get them back.

"Otto, listen to me, don't mess with these useless things anymore! You are from the Apokalis family, don't be so embarrassing! I will smash these things every time I see them in the future."

After saying this, my brother left.

Tears of grievance began to well up in the boy's eyes, but he tried hard to hold them back, fearing that his tears would be seen by his brother when he returned. He would then scold him for being as crybaby as a girl.

"It just flew so high!"

Suddenly, a girl's excited voice came from above his head. He looked up and saw a white-haired girl sitting on the courtyard wall with his little plane in her hand.

He nodded somewhat dazedly.

The little girl climbed over the wall, jumped down from it, and handed the broken airplane to the boy: "Is this yours?"

The boy nodded somewhat embarrassedly and said, "...Yes...I did it myself."

He was a little afraid that the little girl would blame and laugh at him like his brother did, but he changed his mind and realized that no one had any hope for him and no one needed him, so what could he not listen to?

However, contrary to his expectations, the little girl's voice became even more excited: "Wow... That's amazing! You are so amazing, you will definitely become a great inventor in the future!"

He looked up in astonishment and looked into the little girl's sparkling eyes. For the first time, he felt the purest kindness and beauty in the world, and realized that he, who had been abandoned by everyone, could actually get recognition and encouragement from others...

At this time, the other side.

"I'm sorry, Miss Eleanor, I embarrassed you." The brother who had just reprimanded the boy said to the expressionless girl in front of him who was much shorter than him, "Just now, that was just a little thing my good-for-nothing brother tinkered with. I have already reprimanded him... I'm sorry to let you see these things that are not presentable. It's my fault that the Apokalis family didn't entertain you well..."

"Sorry... why should I apologize?" The little girl looked up at the place where the plane had just flown past. "Did he do it himself?"

"Alas, these are just some small things that are not presentable. If he has the time to do these things, he might as well take care of his body and lock himself in a room where he can't see the sun every day."

"It's not presentable... He made it himself, so what's so not presentable about it?"

Under the somewhat surprised gaze of the boy's brother, the little girl quietly expressed her approval of the boy.

"A wise man is not known for his military prowess. A knight guards the people on the battlefield, but a knight's sword is not omnipotent... The first person to discover and learn to use fire is not necessarily a knight."

"he is great."

I'm afraid the boy in the yard at this moment would not have thought that he was recognized by more than one person at this moment.

The boy's brother was silent for a moment and did not answer the little girl. Most of the Apokalis family members of this generation admired the two major knight families, the Kaslana family and the Shaniyat family. Not to mention that as one of the three major families of the Church of Heaven, although the Apokalis family was not famous for its military power, it also required its descendants to meet the minimum knight standards.

Because of this, the boy's situation in Apocalis's house was extremely difficult. His health was not good and he couldn't even hold the sword steadily. He also didn't like sports. He locked himself in the room every day and rarely went out. No matter how many times others scolded him, he didn't change except crying out of grievance.

Therefore, in addition to sarcasm, the boy's brother's rebuke also contained a hint of disappointment.
