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

"Give up, you are not Youlandel, even if you add up, you are still not as good as Youlandel." Cheng Lixue said with one hand holding the sword behind her back, "This battle is meaningless."

"Yulandel? Speaking of which, when the invasion of Destiny was so serious, the strongest S-class Valkyrie of Destiny didn't show up?" Ji Zi asked, "Or did she have an accident?"

"This is not something you can control." Cheng Lixue said calmly, her eyes falling on the four people in front of her. They did not seem discouraged by the gap in strength between the two sides. On the contrary, the determination flashing in their eyes was just like the strongest S-class Valkyrie with destiny whom she and her master had just met not long ago.

At that time, Yulandel had just defeated Rita and Leopold, and when she was about to leave, she ran into herself and her master. Cheng Lixue, who knew Yulandel's purpose, wanted to stop her, but her master Fu Hua stopped her and did not stop Yulandel.

"Master, why don't you stop her?" She asked. She knew very well that what Yulandel would face next would be the dark side of the Shanyiat family, the Black Abyss where monsters gathered. If she failed to win the fight against the Black Abyss, she would only have death.

"You can't stop someone who has already made up his mind and is ready to move forward." Fu Hua replied, "Just like her ancestors did in the past."

Just as Cheng Lixue was coming to her senses, the four Valkyries in front of her had regrouped and rushed towards her.

Cheng Lixue raised her eyes and then put two fingers of her left hand together. She didn't plan to continue wasting time with the four people. There was a Herrscher of Wind on the opposite side, and it was meaningless to continue wasting time. Moreover, due to the existence of ideal fluid, conventional physical means could hardly cause effective attack. In addition, her master left in a hurry, which probably was not good news. She wanted to rush to her master to see if she could help in any way.

If physical means have little effect...

"It's Taixu Sword God!" Ji Zi said in a deep voice. Although she had not seen Cheng Lixue use Taixu Sword God, it was very obvious that Cheng Lixue wanted to end the battle quickly. Wendy could use ideal fluid to protect everyone before, so that everyone would not be too disadvantaged when facing Cheng Lixue. However, Taixu Sword God's attack was a spiritual one, and this blow was simply unstoppable.

Suddenly, the ground beneath their feet began to shake, forcing the five people present to stop what they were doing. Then the alarm sounded throughout Tianming.

"What's going on?" Cheng Lixue frowned slightly. This level of alarm meant that the alert level of Tianming had been raised to the highest level at this moment. However, there was no alarm of this level when the Far East Branch and Anti-Entropy jointly invaded Tianming Airport. After all, the invaders were basically blocked in the outer area of ​​the airport and did not enter the interior.

The highest level of alarm means... a large-scale collapse has occurred at the Destiny Airport.

Wendy frowned tightly, and Mei's expression became a little strange. Bronya noticed the abnormality of the two people and asked, "Sister Mei, Wendy, what's wrong with you?"

"...I feel something is calling me, or rather, calling the Gem of Desire in my body." Wendy said, looking in one direction.

"Me too..." Mei whispered, "If that's the case..."

"The Herrscher of the Void has awakened." Cheng Lixue looked at Meiyi deeply. She knew that Wendy had the Gem of Desire on her body, but she didn't expect that Meiyi seemed to have a gem on her body as well. At the beginning, the Herrscher's core of the Void was broken into several pieces, and one piece was taken away by Anti-Entropy. The one on this child should be the Gem of Conquest, which is consistent with the authority of thunder wielded by the Herrscher of the Void.

Calculating the time, the bishop should be using Kiana as a [container] to awaken Lucifer Shaniate, but why did the Herrscher of the Void awaken? Neither the master nor the bishop mentioned this to her... In any case, she had to go to the laboratory to confirm the situation first.

"I'm giving you some advice. Leave here immediately and don't let the Ruler of the Void find you." Cheng Lixue left after saying this.

The Herrscher of the Void should be able to detect the location of the other gems as soon as he wakes up, and come over to recover them immediately. Although Sariel and Misterine are guarding the laboratory, the Herrscher of the Void without the four gems may not be their opponent, but one should always be prepared for the unexpected.

This is Fu Hua.

Frost and blazing flames divided the battlefield into two parts. The collapsed Qianjie and Ying, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time, stood on both sides. Qianjie was surrounded by flames that seemed to burn everything to ashes, and frost spread from under Ying's feet. In addition to the frost spreading from the sword in Ying's left hand, there was also lightning surging on the sword in Ying's right hand.

"Qianjie, I don't want to fight with you." Ying said coldly, "But if you want to hinder all this, I can only stop you here."

Fu Hua and Desdobia both looked solemnly in the direction of the laboratory where the Herrscher's fluctuations came from, and then the two looked at each other again, and they both saw what was meant in each other's eyes.

Originally, when Qianjie came and bluntly said that Mobius had other plans and wanted to enter the laboratory area with an unquestionable attitude, the two of them began to have some doubts about this plan. When Qianjie was about to force his way through the defense line formed by the two of them, Sakura appeared.

This confirms Qianjie's words from another perspective - Mebius has other intentions.

"Heh... Ying, you really have been cooperating with that woman for a long time." Qianjie said coldly, "Humph, that's right. After all, compared to that woman, you have been crazy for a long time."

"Compared to an insignificant experimental subject, don't you think that only if Feng comes back, our chances of winning against the Honkai will be greater?" Sakura did not comment on Qianjie's words.

The next second, frost and flames collided with each other, mixed with lightning.

The Honkai energy that erupted when Qianjie and Ying fought with all their strength instantly annihilated the Honkai beasts that appeared in the surrounding area due to the awakening of the Herrscher. Of course, the Tianming Shenji that came to fight back according to the order was not spared.

"Should we stop them?" Desdobia looked at Fu Hua, "It's not a good idea for them to keep fighting like this."

The Second Herrscher should have just awakened now, and his strength has not recovered much yet. If these two people fight with all their strength, the destructive power may be higher than that of the Second Herrscher at this time.

Fu Hua was silent for a moment, then said, "Now is not the time for us to interfere. Desdobia, you stay here and watch them so that they don't make too much trouble. It's easiest to separate them with your ability. As for Mobius, leave it to me."

Desdobia nodded and said, "Okay."

She knew what Fu Hua meant. Qianjie and Ying had just fought and were in full swing. If she and Fu Hua forcibly intervened to stop them at this time, they might not be able to stop the fight and both of them would get injured.

After all, it looks like Sakura and Qianjie are serious about this. Sakura doesn't intend to let Qianjie go, but Qianjie has to go no matter what.

We can only wait for the two of them to consume each other first before intervening to stop the war.

"Qianjie, you are always so straightforward, always trying to achieve your goals by means of destruction, but in the end... you ended up not being able to protect anything." Ying said coldly, "Now there is an opportunity for Feng to come back completely, instead of being trapped in a mere [Container]. What on earth are you thinking?!"

“Hmph!” Qianjie snorted coldly, “I don’t understand your great principles, and I can’t argue with you, but what did you guys who keep talking about great principles accomplish in the end? Before he came back, you were already torn apart and hurting each other!”

He grasped the blade of the Seven Thunders of Purification in Ying's hand with his bare hands, and said in a hoarse voice: "I never agreed to this bullshit plan from the beginning. His death is a sin that none of us can do anything about, but what is the difference between your actions and tarnishing his wish to sacrifice him?"

"Yes, he shouldn't be trapped in a damn [Container] and come back in a strange appearance to all of us. So should he come back in this way?! I don't understand your bullshit logic. I only know that we can only win and not lose. I only know that he has pointed out the way to completely defeat this damn Honkai!"

"Just relying on those kids who can't do anything?" Sakura asked, "What can they do? Do they think they can defeat Honkai with just them? With a cowardly Herrscher of Lightning and a Herrscher of Wind who is worse than any other Herrscher we've ever faced? Or with that Infinite Tower Himeko? What can they do?"

"Haven't we done something similar in the last era? But what was the result? What have we changed?!" Qianjie sneered, "He still died, and we survived like deserters, and were even shackled by that damn Cocoon of the End. We always thought we could control everything in our own hands, but in the end, didn't Siegfried still take advantage of us?!"

"So you choose to believe those children? What can they do now? Use their innocence and tears to make Honkai retreat?" Sakura gritted her teeth and said, "How can they face the Herrscher who comes next? How can they face the constraints and the final end?"

"It's not that I believe in them, but I believe in that hateful guy who died before me in the past!"

The knife light and the palm together slashed across Qianjie's body, leaving a shocking wound. Ordinary people would be almost helpless if they suffered such a level of wound, but this kind of wound could be healed in the blink of an eye on Qianjie's body. Qianjie then turned around and punched the blade that Yingge was blocking in front of him, knocking the opponent away.

"What a stubborn guy..." Ying calmed her breath a little, but it seemed that her words were not just directed at Qianjie.

Do you believe him... Oh, yes, believe him. He really saved the destined fate of thirteen people, but he couldn't save himself...

the other side.

Yulandel held the Black Abyss White Flower in her hand. She had already suffered many wounds on her body, but these wounds were constantly recovering, but new wounds would appear soon after recovery.

Under the siege of Ivar and others, Yulandel was sure that if it were not for the power boost brought by the help provided by Lilith, she would have died in the attack of the Abyss, especially Ivar and others who appeared in an artificial collapse posture. Their strength far exceeded that of Rita, an S-level Valkyrie.

In addition to facing other Shaniyat, he now also has to face these four monsters that are far beyond the level of ordinary S-class Valkyries.

"Their artificial collapse has a time limit. The longer it takes, the greater the damage to their bodies. But the current situation is that they will not retreat even if they fight you to death." Lilith said in a tone of watching the fun and not minding the trouble. "If you continue like this, regardless of who will die first, I'm afraid your sister really can't be saved~"

"What's going on with the vibration just now and the alarm now? Has the experiment already begun?" Yulandel asked in her heart.

"Well, it should be that the Herrscher of the Void has awakened. After all, Lucifer is not actually dead in the strict sense, but has been exiled to an imaginary space that cannot be reached by ordinary means. The authority of the Second Herrscher is exactly the key to Lucifer's return. You don't have much time left~"

Yulandel gritted her teeth. In addition to the power of the stigmata lent to her by Lilith, she also used the power of the world bubble that she stabilized with the help of the Sumeru mustard seed given to her by the enlightened one. However, she did not want to kill Ivar and the others but wanted to subdue or knock them out. However, the strongest Ivar and his men would not give up until they were killed, which eventually led to a stalemate in the battle.

However, Lilith's words seemed to have other intentions... She still wanted to liberate the power of artificial collapse herself, but Yulandel believed that although the battle situation was currently stalemate, this state would not last too long.

"boom!"

Another round of fighting, Ivar was thrown into the air by Yulandel and slammed hard against the wall. Because his body had reached its limit and it was difficult for him to continue to maintain the artificial collapse posture, he turned back into a human when he fell to the ground. He supported his body with difficulty with both hands, looking at Yulandel who was still fighting with the other three. His vision, which had become a little blurred because of reaching his limit, overlapped Yulandel with someone.

"You really look alike... It would be nice if you were really sisters, but unfortunately..."

A secret laboratory of Destiny.

"Mobius, what is going on?!" Fu Hua stood in front of Mobius and questioned, "Why is Qianjie here? What on earth did Qianjie say?"

"Why don't you just do what you are supposed to do, Hua?" Mobius said coldly, "It's just that K423's existence is swapped with Yu Feng's existence. Compared to an insignificant person, doesn't Yu Feng play a greater role than K423?"

"Kiana is not an insignificant person." Fu Hua took a fighting stance, "She is someone recognized by Feng. She already carries the expectations given by Feng. She still has a lot of room for growth and unlimited possibilities in the future..."

"But so what?" Mobius sneered, "The future is the future, and the present is the present. We were only a little short of defeating the End, weren't we? Do you still think that K423 alone can do what we and Feng have never done together?"

"I believe in Kiana, and I believe in Feng's judgment." Fu Hua's body was surrounded by flames, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes. She knew that Mobius would not waver at all, so she could only end the battle quickly with force.

Suddenly, feathers fell from around her and the scene around her began to distort. Fu Hua instantly realized that this was the power of Yu Duchen. She turned around and looked behind her, where Grayshu was standing quietly.

"Grace? Why? Didn't you say..."

"I've said it before. No matter what, no more accidents can happen." Grayshu lowered his eyes. "Sister Hua, I'm not lying. Yu Duchen... Zero rated power, start."

These were the last words Fu Hua heard before being sealed.

Chapter 47: Equivalent Exchange

The white-haired girl was walking in a desert. The sky was bright, but the sun was not visible, and there was no other light source. It was a dead and silent sky close to nothingness.

In addition, although it is a desert, there is no feeling of heat. Looking back at the way I came, I can't see any footprints.

"Hmm...what's going on..." Kiana covered her head and carefully recalled her memories before coming to this hellish desert. She remembered that she saw the two ancestors of the Shaniyat family. The Elly who had fought with her was Alicia Shaniyat, and Sariel and Misterine who followed her...

Mistelline Shaniat, she has the same face as Cecilia, but according to her own words, she and Cecilia are not the same person.

Half an hour ago, in the Helheim Laboratory.

"Aren't you afraid?" Alicia asked her.

"Afraid... Of course I am afraid. After all, my life may end at this moment. How can I not be afraid?" Kiana said so, but there was no fear on her face. Instead, she smiled with a little relief. "But, is there any difference between being afraid and not being afraid?"

"Perhaps in your opinion, there really is no difference..." Alicia said, crossing her arms, "Then let me change the question. Aren't you curious about why Lucifer, ah, maybe it's more appropriate to call him Feng, Feng is a boy, but the [Container] he chose in the end was a girl like you?"

"This does make me curious. Feng didn't tell me the reason..." Kiana didn't finish her words. She looked at Alicia. At this moment, the expression of this ancestor of Shaniyat seemed somewhat meaningful.

"As expected... I have to admit, as a junior, you are the only one that I envy." Alysia lowered her eyes, "You can talk to him directly, and you will not forget everything about him..."

"Lady Alicia, what you mean is..."

"I believe you also know that the Shaniyat family has been passing on one thing since ancient times, that is, Lucifer is with them, and Lucifer's eyes are always on them." Alicia said, "This now seems to be true. Feng has always been watching us, but anyone who meets and talks with him will forget him. In the end, only Lucifer Shaniyat is remembered, and no one remembers his true name."

Feng... So that's his real name...

"Why is this happening?" Kiana couldn't help but ask.

"Because he rebelled against God, twisted the fate of all living beings, and saved us who were originally going to die." Alicia said calmly, "This is the world's punishment for a rebel like him."

In other words, those Shaniyat family members who were said to have been blessed by Lucifer in history, have they all seen Lucifer? However, due to the limitations of the world, they all forgot all these things and only remembered that the power in their bodies came from Lucifer's gift. This can be regarded as the last stubbornness of Shaniyat in the face of the rules of the world.

"Then, Lady Alicia, will you... also forget your encounter with him for the same reason?" Kiana asked again.

Alicia's eyes moved away from Kiana and became a little distant. She seemed to have thought a lot, but in the end, all her words turned into just one sentence: "...I am the only Shaniyat who cannot see him."

Kiana was stunned, then apologized and said, "I'm sorry, Alicia, I'm not..."

"Okay, you don't have to apologize. This is reality." Alicia waved her hand as if she didn't care and said, "I can feel his presence and know that he has been trying to come back, but I can't see him or touch him... He is punished by the world, so how can I not be punished as well?"

Kiana was silent.

She remembered that in the legend of the Shanyat family, Lucifer, no, he should be called Feng now. Feng chose to save the world for Alicia, and embarked on the road of rebellion against God for Alicia. Even during the time when he was the spirit behind her, he and Alicia kept missing each other...

Feng's punishment was eternal exile and being forgotten by the world, while Alicia's punishment was to become the only Shaniyat who could not see him.

"Okay, let's get back to the point. At least in the current plan, you don't exist as a [Container]," Alicia said, "but as a [Sacrifice]."

"【Sacrifice】?" Kiana repeated the word she heard, and after a little thought, she understood the meaning of the word.

"You want to use my existence to exchange for Feng's existence, right?"

"That's right. Your existence will be erased from the world. In exchange, Feng will come back. It's that simple." Alicia stepped forward and stood in front of Kiana. She reached out and touched Kiana's face, as if she was looking at her seriously. "I still think you'll look better without these two braids. Can you let your hair down?"

"Of course, these two braids are basically a habit of mine..." Kiana didn't think much about it, she loosened her braids and let her hair down. She had been braiding her hair like this since she was a child. She also looked at herself in front of the mirror and tentatively asked Feng if she would look better with her braids down.

Feng’s answer was: “Wait until you are more mature. Now you… well, just wear these two braids.”

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but after letting her hair down, she first saw surprise in Alicia's eyes, followed by a flash of coldness, but this coldness disappeared so quickly that Kiana suspected she had seen it wrong.

But she knew very well that it was not her illusion.

"I finally understand why you are the [Sacrifice]. Bianca can never replace you..." Alicia took her hand away, took a few steps back, and muttered to herself thoughtfully, "I see... Did Mobius' plan start from that time?"

"Lady Alicia?" Kiana asked tentatively.

Alicia came back to her senses. She looked at Kiana and asked, "Kiana, you have always had this hairstyle. Didn't Feng say anything?"

"He said it would be better for me to stay like this until I mature a little bit," Kiana answered honestly.

"Did he say that?" Alicia looked into Kiana's eyes and said, this was the first time Kiana saw doubt in Alicia's eyes.

"Kiana did not lie, her color did not change." Grayshu's voice sounded, and both Kiana and Alicia turned their eyes over, and Grayshu walked over from the other side.

“Is that so…” Alicia’s expression became more complicated, and then she looked at Grayshure with empty eyes and said, “Well, speaking of this, little Grayshure, shouldn’t you explain it clearly? You already knew that Feng was with Kiana, right?”

"Because there is no real evidence, telling her will only cause trouble to Kiana's real life, right?" Gray Xiu replied calmly, "And maybe brother Yufeng thinks the same way?"

Kiana's mind was now filled with only one thought: Teacher Gray Shu is indeed one of the heroes of the same generation as Feng! Speaking of Yu Feng... uh, is that Feng? Why does this name sound a bit like someone from Shenzhou?

The ancestor of the ancient aristocratic family Shaniyat, which has been active in Europe for thousands of years, was from Shenzhou?

"I'll assume you didn't lie. You said Feng thought the same thing..." Alicia didn't intend to pursue the matter further, but looked at Kiana again, "Kiana, your swordsmanship, and your growth along the way, has Feng been with you?"

"You can say that... He did teach me a lot of survival skills." Kiana replied, "I always feel a different kind of security when he is around."

The corner of Alicia's eye twitched at first, and Grayshu turned her face away, as if she was trying to hold back her laughter. Of course, Alicia quickly regained her composure: "In other words, you actually trust Feng too, right?"

"Well... I think I have no reason not to believe him, and even less reason to doubt him." Kiana said frankly, and then added in her heart: It would be better if Feng didn't mock me every day.

Heh... But now that I think about it, I still miss the past that has gone by. If possible, I would go back to the time before I arrived in the Far East and joined Saint Freya, the journey with only two of us...

"So this time, are you still willing to believe him?" Alicia asked.

Kiana was confused when she heard this. She didn't know why Alicia suddenly said this. What did she mean this time? Believe in Feng? Believe in what?
