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

Feng slapped his forehead with one hand. It seemed that this year's New Year's Eve dinner was still full of troubles.

Kiana Extra: Another World (1)

"Who are you? Why do you appear in Kiana's consciousness space?" Fu Hua stared at the white-haired girl who seemed to appear in front of her suddenly. The white-haired girls and the Herrscher of the Void around her had exactly the same appearance as Kiana, but compared to the Herrscher of the Void, the threat posed by this white-haired girl to her was far greater than that of the Herrscher of the Void.

"Squad leader?" Kiana looked at Fu Hua who was staring at her warily, then looked around, and finally her gaze fell back on Fu Hua.

No, the person in front of her didn't seem to be the squad leader she knew... In her impression, the squad leader always gave people a calm and introverted feeling, a sense of calmness brought by his own strength. However, the one in front of her... apart from anything else, it seemed that he was just a consciousness, and his condition was not very good.

"Don't worry, I have no ill intentions. My appearance here...maybe, just maybe, is an accident?" Although Kiana didn't feel that she would be under much pressure if she had to confront the squad leader head-on, given her current situation, it would be best not to take action. Even if she had to take action in the end, she should find a way to obtain the necessary information.

Judging from the situation, this seems to be another world?

I have heard Feng say before that there are countless possible parallel worlds on the branches of the Imaginary Number Tree. The Hengsha Plan implemented by Su is to find the possibility of fighting against the collapse through observing parallel worlds through the Thousand Worlds. Unfortunately... Su confessed to himself that there is only one Feng in countless worlds, so even if other worlds defeat the collapse, they can only provide a reference at most.

Feng also mentioned that he was once inexplicably dragged into a war for a cup?

A war over a cup that could blow up a city? That world sounds really magical... Feng also said what his job in the present world was? Lancer or swordsman? I forgot, after all, I just listened to it as a bedtime story...

I just don’t know what the situation is with the world I live in now.

"Accident? How can I believe you? Do you have any evidence?" Fu Hua still hadn't let go of her hostility towards Kiana.

The main reason was that the current situation was too special. Otto had just said to her, "Red Kite Immortal, I did not lie," and then she was shot in the head by Otto with the Void Wanzang. At the critical moment, she had to use Yu Duchen's zero rated power to transfer her consciousness to Kiana, and her consciousness was highly bound to Kiana's.

Even though she was betrayed by Otto, Fu Hua never forgot her mission. She had to eliminate the threat from humans, but she also had hope for Kiana, so she did not immediately drag the consciousness of the Herrscher of the Void to die together with Kiana. But if Kiana continued to be so depressed and eventually lost to the consciousness of the Herrscher of the Void, then she would have to take the final measure and die together.

Hearing Fu Hua's words, Kiana couldn't help but frown. She felt that she should not have released any hostility, and there should be nothing wrong with her attitude and tone of inquiry. Why did the hostility and vigilance of the class monitor in front of her not decrease at all?

Moreover, according to her understanding of Fu Hua in her own world, wouldn't it be easy for the squad leader with Yu Duchen to see through her hostility and bad intentions? Not to mention Yu Duchen, even the squad leader in her own world without Yu Duchen wouldn't be so wary of her...

After all, her strength is there...

Kiana couldn't produce any substantial evidence to make Fu Hua believe her for the time being, but the other party now looked hostile to her and unwilling to fight with her, so it was hard not to make her suspect that Fu Hua was simply unable to do it and had no chance of winning against her, or even... maybe the only way was to fight with her to death.

So even if Fu Hua was hostile to me, she couldn't do anything to me.

Kiana's guess was correct. Fu Hua was already in a very weak state, and she had just used Yu Duchen to suppress the Herrscher of the Void who wanted to forcibly wake up. Now, Kiana, who was even more threatening than the Herrscher of the Void, appeared. If a fight really broke out, Fu Hua estimated that she had no choice but to fight this Kiana.

After the two of them confronted each other for a while, Kiana completely saw through Fu Hua's plan: "Okay, squad leader, I can call you that, right? There's no point in staring at me like this, because you can't do anything to me... Trapping that guy has already consumed most of your strength, right? If you really want to take action, you have no choice but to destroy this consciousness space and die with me."

Totally seen through.

This was Fu Hua's first thought. She looked at Kiana, who was standing in front of her with her arms folded and a cold expression, in surprise. This Kiana had actually noticed the consciousness of the trapped Herrscher of the Void, which she could have concealed, and...

What makes this Kiana more threatening than the Herrscher of the Void is not only the power she has not yet shown, but also her insight, which is different from the Kiana and the Herrscher of the Void that he knows. In just a short period of time, she has already grasped the situation here.

Although she should be an outside intruder, she was the one who took the initiative from beginning to end.

Moreover, judging from the tone of this Kiana, she was even confident that even if she destroyed this consciousness space, she would not be able to do anything to her.

At a certain moment, the figure of Kiana in front of him seemed to overlap with the figure of one of his comrades...

Kevin.

Yes, it's Kevin.

The Kiana that was confronting him right now was too much like Kevin. Facing her was like facing Kevin... No, she didn't look exactly like Kevin...

Since all her cards had been seen through, and the other party had no intention of taking action, and she would not gain any benefit if she took action, Fu Hua had to put aside some of her hostility: "What is your purpose?"

"My purpose..." Kiana thought about it. She didn't know what her purpose was. How should she answer?

After a long while, Kiana said, "I told you that I only appeared here because of an accident, so the purpose... Ha, if you are talking about the current purpose, I would like to know something about this world. For example... why did you and the Herrscher of the Void appear in this consciousness space? And you can't do anything about the Herrscher of the Void's consciousness?"

Fu Hua slowly asked a question. From the tone of Kiana's voice, was she from another world? And could she in another world easily control the Herrscher of the Void?

Well...if my body was in its prime, it would be no problem for me to control the Herrscher of the Void...even if it wasn't in its prime, if Otto hadn't ambushed me, I would have been able to kill the Herrscher of the Void.

Therefore, Fu Hua spent some time to briefly explain to Kiana the period before the outbreak of the War of Destiny, as well as the current situation during the War of Destiny.

After listening to Fu Hua's story, Kiana was silent for a long time, and then she said in surprise: "The Shanyat family didn't react at all? The Battle of Destiny is such a big thing, but none of the three major families of Destiny participated? Otto went to so much trouble just to use my body in this world to revive a mere Herrscher of the Void?"

If I were in my own world, if I had disappeared after the Battle of Destiny, the Shaniyat family would have come to my house long ago. But from what the squad leader described, not to mention Shaniyat, neither Kaslana nor Apokalis mentioned anything about this incident.

The most important thing is... did he really use himself as the vessel of the Herrscher of the Sky? And he really succeeded? How come anyone can bully him without Feng?

Tsk, how about I let Feng find another opportunity to beat Otto up when I get back... After Feng is done beating him up, I'll find another opportunity to beat him up...

Fu Hua was stunned. Is this what Kiana said? Just a Herrscher of the Void? Are you ashamed to use your body as a vessel to revive the Herrscher of the Void?

A sealed Ruler of the Void: "???"

What did you just say? A mere Herrscher of the Void?

Fu Hua's expression changed. Oh no, the Herrscher of the Void was going berserk. She had to hurry...

Kiana glanced at the place where the Herrscher of the Void was chained, raised her hand and added a dozen more chains to the Herrscher of the Void, which directly made the Herrscher of the Void lose his temper, just like a pufferfish that was deflated physically right after it was inflated.

Ruler of the Void: "..."

Fu Hua: "..."

Yes, no wonder she dared to say that he was just a Herrscher of the Void.

Kiana just glanced at him and then looked away. What's the big deal? The Herrscher of the Void in her own world was still being bullied by her every day in the paradise, and even his tough talk was over in the end.

After solving the problem of the Herrscher of the Sky, Kiana looked at Fu Hua again and said, "Let me ask you something. The me in this world, um... my bloodline should still be from the Kaslana and Shaniyat families, right?"

Fu Hua nodded: "Yes, you are the daughter of Cecilia Shaniat and Siegfried Kaslana."

"Biological or artificial?" Kiana asked.

Fu Hua choked and said after a while: "The Kiana in this world... is man-made."

"That's exactly the same as me... So the me in this world was created just to be a vessel for the Herrscher of the Void?" Kiana said and glanced at the Herrscher of the Void again.

Ruler of the Void: "..."

Sister, you are awesome, you have a big fist, and everything you said is right, so please stop queering me, okay?

Fu Hua was silent. According to this statement, the Kiana in front of her was also artificial, but...isn't the purpose of creating this Kiana in that world a bit scary? In this world, the fact that Kiana was created as a container of the Herrscher of the Void already made Fu Hua uneasy. She felt that Otto was playing with fire.

What is the other world doing? One Herrscher of the Void is not enough for Otto. Is Otto planning to directly perform a ritual to summon the End?

"That shouldn't be the case... Since the Battle of Destiny is to take me back, then what about the Shanyat family? Didn't they participate in it at all? For example, intercepting Theresa, intercepting Anti-Entropy, etc." Kiana asked again.

Fu Hua choked again. What on earth was going on? The Shanyat family was just a background in this world. The three major families of Tianming had long been reduced to nothing by Otto.

"They... are not qualified to participate in this matter..." Fu Hua explained reluctantly, "The three major families of Tianming are no longer as powerful as they used to be. Now they are just the name of the three major families in vain."

She said that this Kiana gave her a completely different feeling from the Kiana she knew. It turned out that although this Kiana was artificially created, she was actually a young lady from a wealthy family.

"What about Siegfried Kaslana? Didn't he participate in the Battle of Destiny?" Kiana frowned. "In this world, he should also hold the Holy Fire Judgement, right? In my world, he took the initiative to act as bait and was seriously injured in the end, which tied down some of the top combat forces and family members of the Shaniyat family and gave Anti-Entropy the opportunity to board the Destiny Airport."

Fu Hua was shocked. Is the Shanyat family in another world so powerful? If Siegfried hadn't risked his life to hold them back, Anti-Entropy wouldn't even have had a chance to board the Destiny Airport?

But in this case, how should she answer this question?

Siegfried in another world is willing to risk his life to restrain Shanyatid from helping Theresa launch the War of Destiny. What is Siegfried in this world doing?

"Maybe... it's because his physical condition is not suitable for participating in the Battle of Destiny..." This was the only reason Fu Hua could think of.

Kiana lowered her eyes slightly, but didn't mind too much. After all, in reality, she was not Siegfried's biological daughter, but just an artificial human. Being willing to save her was a favor, not a duty, and there was no need to force it.

The two were silent for a while, and then Fu Hua said, "From what you said, in your world, the Shaniyat family still has a very high status in Tianming, right?"

Almost all the senior members of Tianming are members of the Shanyiat family. If Otto and his sister are counted as members of the Shanyiat family, then as for Rita... well, she is not much different from being a member of the Shanyiat family.

Kiana thought so, and then said: "The Shaniyat family has always been the main force of the Mandate of Heaven against the Honkai, and is also the family that Bishop Otto Apokalis trusts and values ​​the most."

Fu Hua seemed to be thinking about something.

Otto's most trusted and most important person... Doesn't that basically mean that most of the senior executives of the Mandate of Heaven are from the Shaniyat family? No wonder Kiana was surprised at first that the Shaniyat family did not participate in the Mandate of Heaven War.

"We have finished talking about the battle of destiny. Now let's talk about me in this world..." Kiana's eyes moved to the boundary of the consciousness space. "Tell me about me in this world, squad leader. I want to know all the stories you know about me. Please."

Fu Hua: "..."

She said please, but why did it feel like Kiana didn't give her any room to refuse and was just being polite? And she really didn't have the qualifications to refuse... Judging from her current strength, she would have to be crazy to fight with Kiana.

Who on earth taught this Kiana? Siegfried definitely couldn't teach a daughter like this.

Kiana Extra: Another World (2)

"Who are you? Why are you appearing in front of me in my appearance?!"

In her own base, Kiana looked at another self who seemed to appear in the mirror and questioned. She didn't know whether this was a trick of the Herrscher of the Void, or a way for the person she had deliberately ignored for some time to attract her attention and force her to speak.

She looked at herself in the mirror, her questioning was filled with a bit of hysterical anger, but when she looked into the other person's eyes as calm as water, all the anger was forcibly suppressed at this moment, and the appearance of forced anger was removed, leaving only the panic reality.

The person in the mirror is completely different from the person now. It's not like she hasn't looked in the mirror before. Isn't she clear about what she looks like now? Her hairstyle is a double braid. At the same time, she has no way to completely suppress the power of the Herrscher of the Void in her body. The color of her eyes is one blue and one yellow.

But what about the person in the mirror? She has a ponytail and her eyes are pure blue.

His feigned angry questioning did not cause the slightest ripple in her eyes. She just stood there with her arms folded across her chest, as if she was looking down at him, completely different from himself at this moment, who was like a frightened young animal that was threatening.

For a moment, Kiana had an illusion that it was the self she had dreamed of, calm, confident, and powerful, as if she would not be disturbed by anything, the strongest Valkyrie, the hero who saved the world...

But... it was just an unrealistic and absurd dream of mine...

From the beginning, I...

"Do you know what you are doing now?" asked the self in the mirror.

"I……"

Facing the question in the mirror, Kiana didn't know how to answer for a moment. What was she doing now? She should have said that she was fighting against the Herrscher of the Void, but... when the words came to her lips, she felt that this answer was pale and powerless.

"After the battle of destiny, you woke up on the coast. You wandered and hid for three months until you ended up here, in Sky City..." the self in the mirror said slowly, "You deliberately ignored your former squad leader, and thought you were fighting against the will of the Herrscher of the Void..."

"I didn't!" Kiana stared at herself in the mirror fiercely and interrupted, "What do you understand? What do you know?! I have no choice at all..."

As she spoke, a tragic smile appeared on her face. She didn't care whether the person in the mirror was an illusion created by the so-called squad leader. She only knew that the mental pressure she had been under for the past few months had reached its limit at this moment. She might have continued to hold on, but... for some reason, facing herself in the mirror, she chose to reveal everything about herself.

Maybe... it's because the person in the mirror is "myself", the one I can trust, the one who will not abandon me or betray me. The only one I have is "myself".

She said: "What else do I have? I was not Kiana Kaslana from the beginning. The past I thought of did not belong to me at all... It was me who implicated everyone in Saint Freya, it was me who harmed Teacher Jizi... But, can I choose all of this? Who am I, where should I go, what should I do... I don't know..."

Only when facing themselves will people be willing to speak their true feelings.

"You should know how dangerous you are right now. You are not in a good enough state to suppress the Herrscher of the Void. Sooner or later, she will wake up again."

"But where can I go? Go back to Destiny and let Otto use me, or rather, use the Herrscher of the Void, to do more wrong things? And Anti-Entropy...how are they any better than Destiny?"

At this time, Kiana was in a state where she didn't trust anyone, whether it was Destiny or Anti-Entropy.

What's more, for her, her impression of Anti-Entropy was only a few times of hostility, from the Singapore Collapse incident, to the Jiuyou Chiyou incident, to Wendy's death, these were all things that Anti-Entropy did in her memory.

It was impossible to go back to destiny, and anti-entropy? There was no possibility that she could trust him.

"...Saint Freya." The self in the mirror gave an answer that she knew very well but had always avoided.

"No, I can't go back..."

"Why? Did Theresa betray you too? Did Mei hurt you? Are they not worthy of your trust?"

Facing a series of questions from herself in the mirror, Kiana was silent for a long time before she whispered, "I... I can't go back..."

The person in the mirror is speechless.

"...How can I face Mei and the others? It was me who harmed Teacher Himeko. I saw her fall from my side into the imaginary space and I was powerless to do anything... I also remember that it was [me] who almost killed Mei with my own hands... How can I face them after hurting them so much?"

She raised her dim eyes, looked at herself in the mirror and said, "I don't want to hurt anyone anymore. I don't want to see anyone get hurt because of me, especially... my friends... No, if I never had it in the first place, would I not be afraid of losing it now?"

Over the past few months, the Herrscher of the Void has repeatedly attacked Kiana's mind. Even though Kiana herself knows that those are just illusions created by the Herrscher of the Void, but...what if? What if that is what will happen next?

"Kiana? My niece is not some clone numbered K423. You have never been Kiana. You are just a thief who stole her name!"

"Kiana...our friend is not the one who killed Himeko-sensei, you murderer!"

Even if it was just an illusion, even if she just thought about these scenes in her mind, Kiana would be in so much pain that she couldn't sleep all night. She was really too afraid of losing.

Even though she has nothing now, she still has that pitiful memory of her time in Saint Freya, right? If those illusions really appeared in front of her, she would not even have that little memory!

"But what can you do now? Neither Destiny nor Anti-Entropy are trustworthy, and Saint Freya cannot go back. There is a time bomb called the Herrscher of the Void in your body. You should understand that you are on the verge of collapse. Once your will collapses completely, the Herrscher of the Void will inevitably wake up, and by then, the entire Sky City... will become ruins."

Kiana looked at herself in the mirror, smiled sadly, and said in a tone that was almost self-destructive: "Of course I know, so..."

She looked at the gun at hand, and her tone became calm at this moment: "...I always keep a bullet for myself."

She had already made up her mind to die together with the Herrscher of the Void. She could not defeat the Herrscher of the Void, but the Herrscher of the Void could never use her body to wake up again and bring disaster to the world.

But why should you wait until you really can't hold on any longer before taking action?
