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

Wait, if I were to exchange my existence for Feng’s, given Feng’s personality, he might…

"He will come back." Kiana raised her eyes and said to Alicia.

She didn't seem to give an answer to Alicia's question, but she seemed to give her own choice.

Alicia crossed her arms and looked at Kiana in silence. After a long time, she just smiled faintly: "Then you have to pay close attention. That guy is always willful."

"When a person carries the expectations of everyone, his ending is no longer decided by him alone, right?" Kiana said.

"But he does have the ability to decide everyone's fate." Alicia shrugged. "Believe me, I know him too well."

I'm not too bad at understanding Feng...

Kiana almost blurted out these words subconsciously, but she quickly suppressed them.

Grayshut, who was standing by, looked up at the sky, mourning in his heart for someone who was about to come back. It was estimated that Alicia would not let him go easily when he came back this time...

Time returns to the present.

Kiana walked in this desolate desert. After sorting out her memories, she guessed that this was probably the place where the so-called "God" imprisoned Feng. However, this ghost place made it impossible to tell the direction. Not only did it all look the same no matter which way you went, but you couldn't even see the footprints you left when you came here. It was possible that you would end up back where you started if you were not careful.

and……

Kiana stepped on the gravel beneath her feet with a little force, but no sound was made.

"Tsk... He couldn't have been locked up in this place for thousands of years, right?" Kiana pursed her lips, "How on earth did he do it..."

If it were her, she would go crazy even in an hour, let alone thousands of years.

I couldn't hear any sound and every time I looked I saw the same scenery. I reached out my hand to scoop up some sand, but I couldn't catch it at all. It slipped through my fingers in the blink of an eye and I ended up with nothing in my hand just like at the beginning. It looked like this broken sand was not even enough to build a sand castle.

Even time has lost its meaning here because there is no way to count it.

Just when Kiana was in a confused state of losing her goal, she suddenly felt a throbbing in her heart. At this moment, it was as if something had guided her in the right direction. Kiana looked up in that direction. Although there was still an endless desert, her intuition told her to go there.

Without hesitation, Kiana ran over there.

After running for who knows how much time, she finally saw something that didn't belong here in the endless desert.

"That's... Black Abyss White Flower?!"

At this time, in another space that seemed like a paradise.

Alicia stood on the high tower, gazing at the dreamy and misty sky in the distance, as if she was talking to someone in the air: "Even if she was your former mortal enemy, are you willing to give her a chance to become a human? I thought you only believed in her because of that distant story... This is not a coincidence, right, Feng?"

You even deliberately asked her to hide her true appearance...

There was no answer. Alicia knew that she had no way of getting answers from that man now. These questions could only be answered from his mouth after all this was over and the two of them met again.

When she saw Kiana, she felt that she looked familiar. She didn't think much about it at first, until Mobius explained her idea about the "Sacrifice" plan. Then Alicia recalled some things in the past and began to doubt some of Kiana's identity.

When Kiana let her hair down, Alicia had to admit that she did feel hostile at that moment.

It clearly looked like the end...

The essence of [Sacrifice] is equal exchange. Of course, the only thing that can be exchanged for equal value with the eternally exiled Ruler of the End is the End.

And it seems that Feng is not unaware. He is even very likely to have known it from the beginning, but he still chose to teach Kiana and protect Kiana...

For a moment, she wanted to agree with Mebius' plan and nip the danger in the bud, but she quickly rejected this idea because she could see that Kiana was a kind child at heart, even so kind that she loved others before herself, and she was willing to believe Kiana.

Of course, she believed more in Feng's choice. Just like Kiana said, as long as he was there, she could feel at ease. Although she was still a little unhappy, the child had only been with Feng for a few years and had met him a few times. He looked like he knew Feng so well...

Chapter 48 His Past

"here it is……"

Kiana stood in the ruins, looking a little confused. After seeing the Black Abyss and White Flower, guided by her heart, Kiana reached out and touched the Black Abyss and White Flower. Immediately, the surrounding scenery changed. When she came to her senses, she was already standing in the ruins.

Kiana looked around, trying to find a key point to break the deadlock. This place must be related to whether she can find Feng, but where is it...

Suddenly, a touch of pink caught her eyes, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "Ancestor Alicia?"

But she realized instantly that something was wrong. The Alicia in front of her was slightly different from the Alicia she had seen before, but she couldn't tell exactly what was different.

"She seems to not see me?" Kiana watched Alicia run past her without any reaction to her presence, and thought, "If it is related to Feng, then... this should be the scene in Feng's memory? Let's follow Lady Alicia and take a look first."

After making up her mind, she followed Alicia to a ruin, under which she saw another familiar figure.

"Feng?" Kiana was a little surprised. Although the face of the young man trapped under the rubble in front of her looked much younger than the Feng in her impression, she could still tell that this was what Feng looked like when he was young.

I see. No wonder Alicia is different from what I remembered. At this time, Alicia is probably the same age as Feng.

Before the boy lost consciousness, he desperately stretched out his hand as if he was trying to survive, and the girl held the boy's hand at this time. This was the beginning of the story, their first meeting.

Kiana silently watched the scene around her freeze at the moment when Alicia rescued Feng from the ruins. She also guessed that this was the beginning of everything, but...

"Why are you showing me these? Is it because you have to exchange my existence for Feng's existence so that my memories will intersect with his?" Kiana turned her gaze around and finally saw the Black Abyss and White Flower on a piece of ruins. After hesitating for a moment, she walked forward and held the Black Abyss and White Flower in her hand again.

Under the guidance of this black abyss white flower, Kiana started from the first meeting between Feng and Alicia, watched them separate and then meet again. During this period, she also learned the concept of "pre-civilization" and knew that the era in which Feng and his friends once lived also faced the same Herrscher as this era. It was after the Fourth Herrscher incident that Feng officially became a member of the same team as Alicia and fought side by side.

She watched Feng confess his love to Alicia during the Sixth Herrscher incident, then leave the Fire Moth and go to the European branch, and then return during the Seventh Herrscher incident. At this time, there was a girl named Lilith by his side.

Of course, his attitude towards Kevin also changed from being always unhappy, or jealous, at the beginning to being relieved. After returning to the Fire Moth, the first thing he did was to apologize to Kevin for what happened before. The relationship between the two should have improved here.

"Fusion Warriors... Kevin and Feng are the earliest fusion warriors? No wonder the Shaniyat family and the Kaslana family became the line of defense for humanity against the Honkai. The relationship between the Kaslana family and the Shaniyat family has always been very good... although the two sides don't seem to have much contact after my dad defected from the Mandate of Heaven." Kiana thought so, and then looked at Feng, who had returned victoriously again, walking alone in the aisle of the Fire Moth. Suddenly, he stopped and pressed his chest, and his expression became a little ferocious.

He held onto the wall with one hand, as if he was suppressing some pain. After a long while, he stood up again, his face expressionless.

Is this a side effect of being a fusion warrior? Kevin's side effect is hypothermia, which can even freeze people around him, while Feng, a fusion warrior of the same period, has never shown any side effects.

That's right. After all, the two of them are fusion warriors of the same period, and both are emperor-level Honkai beasts. Kevin has side effects, so Feng should not be without side effects.

It seems that Feng's side effects are not as obvious as Kevin's, causing harm to others, but rather causing harm to himself internally.

For some reason, Kiana realized at this moment that Feng was different, but she couldn't tell what was different. Feng used to be expressionless... but now Feng has become as cold as Kevin. After the fusion warrior operation, these two strongest warriors of mankind have changed. Kevin is immersed in depression for killing his comrades, and Feng's expression is no longer gentle.

It was really hard to imagine that Feng had experienced such a time before. Compared to the initial youthfulness and gentleness, the current Feng was like a cold machine. I wondered how he turned into the person I saw in the end, the gentle Feng...

Is it because of Lady Alicia? After all, as far as I can see now, only Lady Alicia can do such a thing.

After Feng recovered, he continued to move forward, and the next person to come towards him was Alicia.

Alicia looked at the expressionless young man in front of her, put her hands on her hips, and said with a distressed expression: "Feng, why are you starting to follow Kevin's cold-faced cool guy route? After all, you are now one of the signature characters of the Fusion Warriors. It's not good to duplicate Kevin's personality. Smile, okay?"

Kiana twitched her lips. Feng had just come out of the torture of similar side effects. How could she smile at this time? However, Alicia did not seem to know about this at that time, but for herself who was currently in a God's perspective, it was really a bit...

Feng was stunned, and then he seemed to be trying to raise the corners of his mouth, but that kind of smile... was really hard to describe.

I can only say that a fake smile is better than this expression.

Alicia frowned her pretty eyebrows, stepped forward and stretched out her hand to pinch Feng's already angular face, then took a half step back and said with satisfaction: "This is what it means to smile. What was your expression just now? Could it be that the side effect of your surgery is that you forgot how to smile?"

Feng maintained this expression and reached out to touch his face, as if he wanted to remember this expression. His eyes softened as he looked at her. He said, "Yeah... I forgot how to laugh. It's a terrible side effect... Thank you, Alicia."

Kiana: “???”

No, what's going on? Feng, why don't you listen to what you are saying? Is this your side effect? ​​And Lady Alicia, you don't really believe it, do you?

"You're welcome. We've always been friends!" Alicia said with a smile.

Kiana: "..."

If I remember correctly, it was about a year ago when Feng confessed to me? We have always been friends... I always feel that things are not going in the right direction...

No, there shouldn't be any problem. After all, the Shanyiat family are all descendants of Feng and Lady Alicia.

Afterwards, Alicia handed Feng a beautifully crafted invitation to Kevin's birthday party to encourage Kevin to get out of depression.

Feng took the invitation and said that he would definitely attend the banquet. Then he watched Alicia leave with a smile until she disappeared from his sight. Then he became expressionless again. He looked down at the invitation in his hand, as if thinking about something.

Afterwards, Kiana saw Lilith asking Feng: "Why are you so determined to hide your side effects from her? If you want to pursue her, tell her about your side effects and let her see your sacrifice. Wouldn't it be easier for you to get closer?"

Feng, who was suffering from the side effects at the time, just glanced at Lilith coldly without saying anything.

After a while, perhaps because the side effects had worn off, Feng temporarily diverted his attention from it and said, "Tell her? Why should I tell her? I said, we also agreed that I would become a hero like Kevin... Besides, just because I like her doesn't mean I want to attract her attention in this way. I want to... appear in her eyes as a hero, not a poor man tortured by side effects."

"What a stubborn guy..." Lilith said with a pout.

That's right, you are too stubborn, aren't you? What's wrong with saying it!

No wonder Lady Alicia didn't know about it. It turned out that Feng took the initiative to block the news from her... In the end, Lady Alicia must have known about it. At that time, she must have felt very sad. She must have blamed herself for discovering Kevin's depression but not seeing the torture that the people around her were going through.

As the memories progressed, Kiana increasingly felt that there was something seriously wrong with the way Alicia and Feng got along with each other.

And isn't this progress too slow? You guys are going both ways? You're going both ways, but you can't even see any progress in the Ninth Herrscher incident? How did the Shaniyat family come about?

Why does Kiana feel that Lilith is about to overtake her?

Lilith has confessed her love now! Lady Alicia, what are you doing? Why are you just looking at me...ah, you left? No, don't you like Feng too? Why are you leaving?

Kiana became more and more confused as to why the two ancestors of the Shaniyat family were Feng and Alicia instead of Feng and Lilith.

Although Feng rejected Lilith, Lilith obviously had no intention of giving up. After being rejected, she invited Feng to dance with her under the moon.

Kiana didn't know what to say. It was obvious that Alicia was unhappy. When she saw Kevin's expression as if he was wishing well for Feng and Lilith, Alicia's face turned dark.

"Lady Alicia will surely find a way to overtake us in the future... If we continue like this, the Shaniyat family will be gone..." Kiana complained in her heart as she found the Black Abyss White Flower in the scene, opening the next scene of memories.

She saw the disagreement between Feng and Alicia when they were discussing the battle plan against the Divine Grace Barrier of the Eleventh Ruler. Feng made the decision to abandon civilians without hesitation, wanting to use civilians to fill the upper limit of the Divine Grace Barrier. However, this plan was only possible in theory, and no one could guarantee that it would succeed.

However, Alicia firmly opposed Feng's plan and supported the existing fusion warriors to break into the Divine Grace Barrier to lock the position of the Herrscher of Constraint.

Finally, the top management decided to adopt the plan supported by Alicia. To be honest, Kiana also supported Alicia's idea. Feng's idea was too risky. If it failed, the consequences would be disastrous. At this time, Feng... really didn't take the lives of civilians seriously...

However, on the eve of the operation, Feng led his team to forcibly implement his plan, intending to execute it before Alicia and others. Lilith seemed to deliberately expose her whereabouts to Alicia at this time, forcing Alicia to start the operation in advance with others.

After Feng learned that Alicia had entered the Divine Grace Barrier, he hesitated for a brief moment before deciding that the others would continue to carry out the plan, while he would go to the Divine Grace Barrier to collaborate on the plan supported by Alicia. But then Lilith proposed to go with him, and after that, the other team members also proposed to go to the Divine Grace Barrier with their captain.

When seeing this scene, Kiana said in her heart that she was in trouble.

Lilith really did whatever it took. No matter how the situation turned out, as long as there were casualties among Feng's team members, there would be a big rift between Alicia and Feng...

Feng must have a way! He must have saved everyone in the end!

However, things went against her wishes. Kiana watched with her own eyes as the members of the Fallen Angel Team fell one after another. They supported Lilith and Feng to reach the Herrscher of Constraint, and Lilith finally sacrificed herself to protect Feng.

"How could it be... Didn't Lilith want to use this opportunity to separate Feng and Lady Alicia? Why did she..."

Kiana pursed her lips. She seemed to understand. Lilith...she had loved Feng from the beginning to the end. Everything she did was based on this premise. Therefore, she could die for Feng.

The Herrscher of Constraint was conquered, and everything ended in the rain. Feng picked up Lilith and walked back the way he came. This was the first time he ignored the call from Alicia behind him.

Kiana now wonders if the Shaniyat family is artificially created. She really can't see any hope that Alicia can save everything.

Unless there is still a chance to start over again, there is really no hope at this moment. Feng really cares about his teammates and almost regards them as his own family. Now everything is gone.

The development of the matter was similar to what Kiana expected. After the tragedy of the restraint, Feng stopped meeting with Alicia. The necessary communication about the establishment of the Fourteen Heroes was relayed by Kevin as an intermediary. The most outrageous thing was that Alicia actually didn't know about the side effects of Feng at this time...

Dr. Mobius's confidentiality measures were too good... Feng didn't tell anyone, Lilith didn't tell anyone either, and Dr. Mobius also blocked all the files about Feng's physical condition from Alicia. Alicia really had no chance to find out...

It was not until the next Herrscher appeared that Feng's life was hanging by a thread because of the Honkai energy interference bomb that Alicia learned about the side effects of Feng. Even Kiana could see Alicia's collapse at that time.

While Kiana was still in someone's memory, on the other side.

Feng stood in a long corridor. Every step he took saw the memory of Shaniyat represented by that step, their entire life.

This corridor records thousands of years of history of Shaniyat and their long-cherished wishes that have been carried out for thousands of years.

"Mavis, Lilim... Never mind. I'll settle accounts with you after we get out. You didn't even discuss such a big thing with your mother." Feng lowered his eyes and looked towards the end of the long corridor in the distance. He could vaguely see a pink light. "I know what you think and what your plan is, but you did what you wanted to do, and I will certainly do what I want to do. She will not be erased."

"Huh? This is..."

Feng looked down at his hands. A touch of colorful paint had appeared on his hands at some point. Following the guidance of this touch of paint, he discovered that something seemed to be wrong with the corridor.

"Graysh's paint? It was at that time... Is that so? Wilvi, I really have to thank you for the backup plan this time. So, Alicia should also..."

He looked towards the end of the corridor again. The pink light was flickering, as if conveying some information to him. After standing in silence for a while, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "I see..."

Chapter 49: Mobius: What other surprises could there be?!

A secret laboratory in Tianming Airport.

"The Herrscher of the Void has been confirmed to have awakened. The next step is for her to recover the four gems and fully awaken." Mebius said as he looked at the data on the screen. "She probably didn't expect that when she thought she had regained all her original power, she would disappear from this world completely."

Grayshut just glanced at Fu Hua, whose consciousness was imprisoned by Yu Duchen's zero rated power, sitting on the chair next to her, and said nothing.

"Come to think of it, maybe unexpected things really happened one after another on this day. Grayshu, when Hua gave you Yu Duchen, she certainly didn't expect that you would use Yu Duchen to control her in turn, right?" Mobius looked at Grayshu and said with a smile.

Grayshu lowered her eyes: "...I just want to make sure no more accidents happen."

"As for accidents, Qianjie has Ying to block it, and Alysia has Velvet to cooperate with her, responsible for the next guidance and reconstruction. Now that the matter is done, what kind of accidents can happen?" Mobius said nonchalantly, "After that, I also need to continue to stabilize the construction of the channel. Can I leave the task of guarding the surrounding area to you, Grayshu?"

“No problem.” Gresh said briefly, her eyes falling on Klein who was working like a ruthless machine, wondering what she was thinking.
