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

Chapter 101: When the sky gradually darkens

Saint Freya, Infirmary.

Su closed his eyes and wrote the medical records while saying, "Although exercise can make a person grow, excessive fighting has overdrawn your spirit, Mei, my suggestion is that you should have a good rest in the next period of time."

"But, Dr. Su, I..."

"I have heard from Principal Theresa about the situation. I feel sorry for you, too, but when trying to catch up with someone, you also need to consider your own conditions." Su put down the pen in his hand and said softly, "Compared to Bronya and Wendy, Mei, your physical condition does not support long-term fighting and training. Combining work and rest is the basis for future progress."

Mei slightly closed her hands on her legs. How could she not know what Su said? Wendy was the Herrscher of Wind, Bronya also inherited the Herrscher of Reason, and she had lost the Conquest Gem and was just an ordinary Valkyrie.

"I will also inform Principal Theresa and your father about your situation later." Su said, "Mei, you should pay more attention to rest."

"I see."

Mei stood up from her chair, bowed slightly to Su, and left the infirmary. Su "watched" Mei leave, then picked up the thermos cup beside him and took a sip of the wolfberry green tea in it.

He finally chose to end his "medical training" and returned to Saint Freya. Of course, when he came back, he was naturally investigated by Theresa. There was nothing he could do about it. After all, Velvet and Grace left without saying anything, which made Theresa begin to doubt his identity.

Of course, Qianjie also returned to Saint Freya. It would be better to say that Qianjie returned to Saint Freya earlier than himself, because he really left on the pretext of taking a vacation. He returned to Saint Freya as soon as the vacation was over. It seemed that he was planning to stay in Saint Freya for a while.

As for why I want to go back to Saint Freya...

Perhaps it was because he felt more accustomed to staying in Saint Freya. Besides, these children in Saint Freya also needed someone to look after them.

Feng's focus on the current civilization is more on Kiana, and no one else in Saint Freya except Theresa is within Feng's scope of attention.

However, in Su's opinion, in addition to Kiana herself being special enough, these children of Saint Freya also have the possibility of the future. Saving the world has never been the responsibility of one person or one family. Wendy, the Herrscher of the Wind, and Bronya, the third acting Herrscher, both have considerable possibilities.

Of course, the same is true for Mei.

But that moment has not come yet.

In that final battle, Feng and Alicia left not only the spark of civilization but also the possibility of the Herrscher's metamorphosis to the present civilization. In Su's eyes, after a long period of observation, Mei and Bronya both had the possibility of metamorphosis. Because of a slight deviation caused by Feng's previous interference, Wendy's unexpected survival also made her qualified to metamorphose.

However, everything has a price. Although Feng has tried his best to avoid directly interfering with civilization, the impact he caused has gradually arrived. Feng has made it clear to others that the intensity of the upcoming collapse will be much higher than expected.

If they follow the order, the next Herrscher to appear should be the Herrscher of Ice. In Feng's initial prediction, the candidate for the Herrscher of Ice is Anna Shaniyat, who is currently guarding the Coral Island. The Herrscher of Rock was born at about the same time as the Herrscher of Ice.

However, this matter is currently only known among the Forerunners. How to fight against the Herrscher is a question that the humans of this era need to answer. All the Forerunners can do is to guide as much as possible rather than directly interfere, whether it is because of the constraints of the "Cocoon" or because this era belongs to the humans of this era.

Before the fall of the previous civilization, Feng did mention that the final destructive range of the current civilization's Herrscher of Ice and Herrscher of Rock would be limited to an island, but now Feng has confirmed that the strength of the Herrscher that will appear next will increase. The Herrscher of Rock had a record of sinking Mu Continent twice in the previous civilization, so we must be careful.

"However, although Feng mentioned before that the Herrscher of Thunder would defeat the Herrscher of Ice and the Herrscher of Rock, according to the current situation, perhaps Kiana will defeat the two Herrschers." Su thought in his heart, "As for Mei...her chance may be coming soon."

Tightening the lid of the thermos, Su sent his advice about Mei's recent health condition to Theresa.

As for Theresa, she was currently having a meeting with several Anti-Entropy executors and Anti-Entropy leader Walter.

"After the battle of Haiyuan City, Destiny finally launched a large-scale operation again, but their target was Benares." Walter briefly summarized the situation. "Before that, both Destiny and Anti-Entropy were only keeping a close watch on Benares' whereabouts."

Anti-Entropy had naturally considered capturing or killing Benares, but Benares was a Judgment-level Honkai beast with a considerable degree of intelligence. Even if Walter took action personally, it could run away if it couldn't defeat him.

As for using the Anti-Entropy Mecha to consume Benares, it is theoretically feasible, but for Anti-Entropy, the material resources consumed are far greater than the benefits of capturing or killing Benares, not to mention that there is also Destiny watching from a distance and may take the opportunity to pick peaches.

It is absolutely impossible for other executors of Anti-Entropy to sacrifice a large number of mechas just to capture a Judgment-level Honkai Beast, and possibly lose the opportunity to be picked by destiny. When this idea was first proposed, it was strongly opposed by Cocolia who was still alive at the time.

Anti-Entropy thought so, and so did Destiny. In addition, Benares remained silent after the death of the Herrscher of the Void and did not attack humans, so both sides turned a blind eye to this.

Now that Destiny has suddenly started hunting Benares, Anti-Entropy has no choice but to respond.

As for why Theresa would also participate in the Anti-Entropy meeting, it was of course...

We have no choice but to ask for external assistance due to insufficient combat power.

The losses caused by the Battle of Haiyuan City to Anti-Entropy have not been fully recovered until now. In addition, the Congress has also exerted a lot of pressure and dragged its feet. If it wants to respond to the actions of Destiny, Theresa's strength cannot be ignored.

"I really don't know what Otto is doing recently, but people like him will definitely not do anything that is not good for him." Tesla said.

"Grandpa's thoughts are always hard to understand. Instead of trying to figure out the purpose of the Destiny Hunt to consume Benares, we should think about what we should do here, and wait and see how the situation changes, and try to collect as much information as possible." Theresa said.

"That's right. So in addition to the big move of hunting Benares, I have also collected some other information." Einstein said, "Shencheng Pharmaceutical, which caused the Tiankong City incident, has been silent for a while. Just a few days ago, Tianming announced that it would further deepen its cooperative relationship with Shencheng Pharmaceutical and provided a cover-up explanation for the various incidents caused by Shencheng Pharmaceutical before."

"The organization behind Shencheng Medicine is World Serpent, which is the organization that contacted Cocolia and provided the fusion warrior plan in the remaining archives of Haiyuan City." Walter analyzed, "In the Haiyuan City incident, I actually suspected that Otto had contact and cooperation with World Serpent. Later, according to the information provided by Xier, World Serpent is an organization established by the pioneers of civilization. It is huge, but it is also divided into different factions. Otto's cooperation with Shencheng Medicine, also known as Jackal, may be his expansion of the scope of cooperation with World Serpent."

"Joachim, are you trying to say that Otto and the Jackal have reached a cooperation, and this operation to hunt Benares may be a deal between Otto and the Jackal?" Tesla asked.

Without waiting for Walter to answer, Einstein spoke up, "This is indeed the most likely scenario, because Benares itself is not of much value to Otto. But now that Otto is making such a big fuss about hunting Benares, plus the assistance he provided to Shencheng Medicine a few days ago, this could indeed be one of the conditions for their cooperation."

"But what are the prerequisites for Otto to cooperate with the Jackal?" Tesla frowned, "Hasn't he already established contact with the pioneers of the previous civilization?"

Tesla felt a little frustrated when it came to this. The Forerunners had covered up their tracks so well that Anti-Entropy had no chance to contact them. She still wanted to know how Cocolia had gotten in touch with the World Serpent before. At present, the only person she highly suspected might be Sakura, the executor of the Forerunners, who simply ignored her.

On the other hand, the ancestor of the three major families that established Tianming was the Lord of the World Serpent. Compared with Anti-Entropy, Tianming has a more superior intelligence advantage.

"Anyway, my personal opinion is to avoid direct conflict with Destiny and figure out what they want to do first." Theresa said with her hands on her chin, "After all, Anti-Entropy is still a little lacking compared to Destiny, whether it's foundation or something else."

"Theresa is right. This is what we can do at this stage." Walter said, "By the way, Ein, is there any progress in the research on Siegfried's injuries?"

Einstein sighed and said helplessly, "We still can't remove the wounds left by Lucifer on Mr. Siegfried, but perhaps Lucifer has no intention of killing him. If we can't remove these wounds, they won't get worse. For now, Mr. Siegfried still needs to rest, especially that matter, it's better to keep it secret from him."

What Einstein was talking about was the incident a few days ago when Kaslana publicly announced that Siegfried would be completely removed from the family and all his achievements would be erased. As for the reason why the Kaslana family did this, Anti-Entropy has no conclusion yet. We can only guess that it may be related to Kevin's return. Some people also think that this is Kaslana's act of adding insult to injury in order to cater to the main rhythm of Schicksal. After all, Kaslana has indeed just begun to return to the front line and political center of Schicksal's fight against Honkai, and it is understandable that she expressed her position to Otto in order to consolidate her position.

Anyway, some people in Anti-Entropy are very dissatisfied with this, thinking that the Kaslana family has lost their family spirit of chivalry. As for Shaniyat... they have been in cahoots with Otto for a long time anyway, so it is useless to blame them. Whether they pay attention to them or not is another matter.

Einstein and Tesla did not say anything about this. They thought it was commendable that Kaslana had held on until now before announcing the complete severance of ties with Siegfried. After all, the pressure they had withstood before was not only from Otto, but also from Shaniat. There was nothing to blame them for. After all, Kaslana was also one of the three major families of Sinister, and their foundation and glory were in Sinister.

Most of the voices accusing Kaslana came from those congressmen who were only good at talking, as well as some members who were almost driven crazy by the Shaniyat family's previous hunting operations. For those people, the strengthening of Destiny was the worst news.

The meeting fell into silence for a moment.

Theresa sighed softly. In fact, she felt that the matter concerning Siegfried had finally come to an end after this. The Shaniyat family had been suppressed by Lucifer, and the matter between Kaslana and Siegfried was also completely settled.

This might be a good thing for both sides.

As for destiny? Otto didn't care whether Siegfried lived or died. Now Siegfried didn't have the Heavenly Fire and his health was not good. Otto probably didn't even bother to take a look at him.

World Serpent.

"So did you listen to me? The Shanyat family is not a family that you can easily mess with!" Raven looked at Night Owl coldly and said, "It's about time for you to give up the fantasy in your heart, right?"

"Heh... Of course I know it. I've known it since the beginning." Night Owl said without turning his head while adjusting his mechanical prosthesis. He guessed that it was his inquiries during the Sky City incident that aroused the vigilance of the Shaniyat family. Perhaps... they thought that he was coveting Shaniyat's holy blood.

That's right. After all, for others, the Holy Blood of Shaniyat is a golden apple that is tempting enough, but he doesn't care about it. He just wants to know more about the girl named Anna.

Fortunately, he did get some information from his adventurous questioning at that time, but he will probably be closely watched by the Shanyiat family for a while.

"Don't worry, Raven. I'm not that ignorant. For example, when I went with you and the Jackal to make a deal with Otto, I really didn't do anything."

He would not step on other people's minefields casually. Once he aroused suspicion, he would decisively withdraw his hands and feet and then consider what to do next.

That was why he was sure of the reason why he was targeted by the Shanyat family. However, it was somewhat beyond his expectation that Otto would be involved. But when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that there was nothing wrong.

Over the past few hundred years, Leoto has indeed paid close attention to the marriages of the Shaniyat family. The most famous of these is the marriage of Cecilia and Siegfried. Although the reason is not very clear, Ye Xiao can still guess that it is probably related to the head of the Shaniyat family, who has a complicated reputation.

Therefore, maybe I can find a way to contact Otto later.

Chapter 102 When Thunder Rumbles in the Clouds

Changkong City.

This was once one of the most prosperous cities in the Far East, but after the outbreak of the Third Great Collapse, Changkong City gradually became deserted. Today, it has become a dead city with almost no signs of human survival.

"Is it the result of the cycle of fate or a coincidence? In our civilization, the place where the Third Herrscher was born was also Changkong City." Alicia squatted down and said as she looked at the small flower that tenaciously grew out of the ruins.

Feng stood beside him, looking out through the broken wire mesh: "Compared to the third Herrscher of the previous civilization, Raiden Mei is not a fully awakened Herrscher of Lightning. In other words, she has not yet obtained enough Honkai energy as a sustenance to fully awaken, and she has been subdued by Kiana."

"But she also gained the right to continue living as a human being, which was almost impossible in the previous civilization." Alicia stood up and said, "Does this count as... what I did in your story where you never appeared?"

"Of course." Feng said and suddenly raised his head. A discordant sound came from the dark clouds in the sky. Then, a giant white dragon fell from the clouds and landed directly in an abandoned building in the distance.

"Is it because of the instinct of the Honkai Beast that it escaped here while being hunted by the Fate?" Feng retracted his gaze from the direction where Benares fell. "It seems that a heavy rain is about to fall on this desolate city."

"If I remember correctly, you mentioned to us before that Mei completed the full awakening of the Herrscher of Thunder here..." Alicia said with one hand on her chin, "So, she actually used the imaginary singularity here to once again establish a connection with the Imaginary Tree, and thus completely transformed into a complete Herrscher of Thunder?"

She still remembered that Feng said that Mei beat Kiana here?

Thinking about the various trainings Kiana had undergone during this period, and the fact that Kevin had given her the Holy Fire Judgement as a sign of his recognition of her, Alyssia couldn't help but wonder, even if she had fully awakened and become the Herrscher of Lightning, would it be possible for Mei to defeat Kiana here?

Probably not.

"In fact, I have always had doubts. If our enemy is the Cocoon of the End, the authority of the twelve Herrschers comes from the projection of the End at different times. Even with your help, what Mei Raiden did in Changkong City is tantamount to embracing the collapse again. Even if Prometheus interferes with the 'Cocoon', it will be difficult for her to maintain her human consciousness again." Feng turned his eyes to the dark clouds in the sky. "But now I know that the connection she established here is a direct connection to the Imaginary Tree through the imaginary singularity, bypassing the Cocoon of the End. In other words... from the moment she became the Herrscher of Thunder, her authority is no longer just a projection of the Cocoon of the End."

So, in the original world line, Kevin let her enter the paradise of the afterlife?

If his guess was correct, the reason why Kevin allowed Mei to enter the paradise of the afterlife was not only because she was a human Herrscher born under the authority of Alicia, but she was also the first Herrscher in the current civilization to complete the "metamorphosis" and directly connect to the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, and was qualified to inherit the origin.

Precisely because it is directly connected to the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, the Cocoon of the End has difficulty in controlling Mei, and needs to use some tricks to try to start from Mei's consciousness to achieve control over the Herrscher of Thunder again, but this little trick of His is invalidated by the electromagnetic energy overflowing from Mei herself.

Before Mei, there was another Herrscher of Man, and that was Walter Joyce, but his authority still came from the projection of the Cocoon of the End. In order to get rid of the constraints of the Cocoon of the End, the Herrscher of modern civilization needs further "transformation".

"So, Feng, what are you going to do? Find a way to contact Su in Saint Freya, and ask him to find an opportunity to let Mei come to Changkong City to accept the trial of the imaginary singularity and complete the 'metamorphosis'?" asked Alicia.

"I'm not interested in going to great lengths." Feng's tone was a little cold. "Aili, the reason I'm here has nothing to do with whether Raiden Mei can complete her 'metamorphosis'. If she can complete it, everyone will be happy. I still have my own things to do."

Alicia shrugged helplessly, looked at Feng with empty eyes and complained: "Feng, you are still as cold as ever in this regard. It seems that among these children of the current civilization, you only pay attention to Kiana and Bianca?"

Feng didn't reply.

The imaginary singularity can provide an opportunity to directly connect to the imaginary tree, which means that it can not only help the unawakened Mei to complete the "metamorphosis" in one step, but also allow Mei to gradually restore the connection she established with the imaginary tree in the pre-civilization period, thus...

Take them back.

This was his main purpose for coming here.

Since Mei had just awakened not long ago, the Gem of Conquest in her body had not yet fully begun to evolve into the Herrscher Core of Thunder Herrscher. The evolution process of the Herrscher was forcibly interrupted by Kiana, who was under her guidance. The connection of the Cocoon of the End was broken, and because the authority of the Cocoon of the End itself came from the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, although the connection of the Cocoon of the End was broken, the passage to the Tree of Imaginary Numbers was not completely blocked, and therefore the imaginary singularity appeared here.

Only when the authority of the Third Herrscher is fully awakened, the imaginary singularity of Changkong City will be blocked. This is why Changkong City can still be abandoned when the resistance of humans in the current civilization to Honkai energy is generally higher than that of the previous civilization due to the Stigmata Project, and the concentration of Honkai energy in the current civilization is also lower than that of the previous civilization.

If the imaginary singularity is not blocked, the Honkai energy here will leak out continuously.

Honestly speaking, Kiana also has the Gem of Conquest in her body. Theoretically, she can also obtain the full authority of the Herrscher of Thunder from it. I have also told Kiana about the situation of the imaginary singularity here. Anyway, with me here, Kiana doesn't need to worry about the side effects of the Herrscher core and the erosion of various gems on her body in the original world line.

Therefore, for Feng, it is not very important whether the authority of the Herrscher of Thunder is finally obtained by Kiana or Mei. Anyway, as long as one person awakens the authority of the Herrscher of Thunder, the imaginary singularity here will disappear.

"By the way, Feng, are you going to let Xilin stay in the paradise of the past?" Alysia suddenly asked, "Do you have any other plans for this child?"

Feng looked at Alicia and tilted his head. Alicia understood. Well, this guy really just threw the consciousness of the Second Herrscher and Kiana into the paradise of the afterlife. As for what happened afterwards, he really didn't think about it much.

Just as Alicia was thinking about Xilin's future arrangements, she suddenly remembered something: "Wait a minute, Feng, I remember you said before you came here that there will be more drastic changes here than before?"

"Because I projected my consciousness into the Eigenworld, and my original body is the Herrscher of the End crowned by the Imaginary Tree, my appearance in the Eigenworld has further increased the strength and instability of the imaginary singularity." Feng explained, "I think, Ellie, you should have felt it too. As you and I arrived here, the concentration of Honkai energy here is also increasing at a rate far exceeding the past. This is the resonance between the imaginary singularity and my projection."

In other words, the difficulty of becoming the Herrscher of Thunder will increase. This is one of the reasons why Feng is not very optimistic about Mei and is planning to let Kiana come over. Under the guidance of the real heroes and the heroes of paradise, Kiana's willpower and strength are not on the same level as Kiana in the original world line. If she comes, there will be no accidents.

As for Mei, since he didn't pay much attention to Mei's movements, he didn't know much about Mei's inner mental problems and her physical fitness at the moment, but he was sure that she was definitely not as good as Kiana at this moment.

Alicia looked at Feng and sighed helplessly. Perhaps it was because he had been exiled for 50,000 years, and Feng's personality was originally cold. After his return, Feng became even more indifferent towards people or things he didn't care about. Although he became more gentle to himself, he basically didn't consider the situation of other people at all.

Just like the action of Destiny and the Jackal joining forces to force Benares into Changkong City, according to the information from the World Serpent, Anti-Entropy will soon intervene. The Jackal has sent out Night Owl and Raven to carry out the capture operation, but Raven still has some concerns in Changkong City. However, Feng doesn't care about these at all.

You still have to look at yourself.

Raven settled some children who were left homeless due to the collapse in Changkong City. According to Raven's original plan, she would buy a villa island and let all the children live there, but...

Although the Second Herrscher's revival during the War of Destiny did not cause a global collapse, and the World Serpent had been preparing for it, the damage caused by the Second Herrscher's revival was limited to a certain range. However, Raven's villa island was not spared in the end.

There was no other way. The villa island that Raven bought was located in a remote area, and there were not many people nearby. When Paduo was in charge of the matter, she did not take that area into consideration...

All in all, Feng probably forgot, or simply didn't think that there might be other survivors here, so he just came here directly, and later planned to further expand the imaginary singularity. Although he promised himself that the scope would be controlled within Changkong City, he did not guarantee that the possible survivors in Changkong City would have a chance of survival.

Therefore, before she and Feng came to Changkong City, she had already told Kiana that the Shanyiat team led by Kiana should still be searching for possible survivors in Changkong City. As for the children that Raven had placed in the "nest", Alyssia decided to come forward in person and have the Shanyiat family properly place them.

Anyway, Feng doesn't care about these things at all. Apart from himself and Mebius and other close people from the previous civilization, the people he cares about in the current civilization are only Bianca, Kiana, Xi'er and Theresa. I don't know if Cecilia is among them, but at least he still cares about the affairs of the Shaniyat family.

Other than that...most people don't really care.

Even after I told him about it, he would just say "Oh" at most to indicate that he understood, and then he would not change.

In this respect, he is exactly the same as Kevin, both of them are just focused on fighting the collapse.

Just when Alicia was lost in thought, Feng had already opened the umbrella and stood beside her: "It's starting to drizzle, and it might turn into heavy rain later."

Alicia looked up at the umbrella Feng held for her and sighed with some happiness but distress.

"Let's take a look around here. When you open the imaginary singularity later, you have to pay attention to the imaginary divine skeleton that appears."

the other side.

"I really didn't expect that the Jackal had her own plan, and it turned out that the Lord also had his own plan." Raven pressed her brows with a headache. She also rushed here after hearing the news that the Shaniyat family entered Changkong City and went straight to the "Nest". After she arrived, she learned from Kiana what would happen next in Changkong City.

For Lucifer, what he is going to do will not actually affect the Jackal's plan. The increase in the concentration of Honkai energy will not affect Raven, who is a fusion warrior. Since Night Owl uses a mechanical prosthesis, the impact will not be too great. However, the same cannot be said for the children in the "nest".

Raven had mixed feelings about the second young lady of the Shanyat family, who had brought the Shanyat family here to move the children in the "nest". After all, they had just fought in the Sky City incident not long ago.
