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

Kiana glanced at Otto. Although she didn't want to deal with Otto at all, she had to admit that it was indeed Otto who taught her how to meet Feng. Logically speaking, she did have to accept this favor from Otto.

So, Kiana nodded in agreement.

The barrier of Void Wanzang unfolded again, and the golden light isolated them from the outside world. Mei looked at the golden barrier. For some reason, she always felt a little worried.

Before Otto spoke to Kiana, he seemed to glance at me, right? Did he know something? Or was he the one who made me escape from the dream?

In the barrier.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Kiana asked with her arms folded across her chest.

"From the looks of you, you did see Lucifer, right?" Otto said.

Kiana nodded: "Indeed, you are right, but you deliberately want to talk to me alone, is it because you didn't do what you wanted to do?"

"Ha, it just confirmed a little of my guess. After all, what I want to do is a bit difficult." Otto shrugged and said, "I can only take it step by step and make every preparation step by step."

"Even if there is a bottomless abyss ahead of you?" Kiana looked into Otto's eyes and said, "I'm afraid this will be much more difficult than resurrecting Kallen, right?"

“Hahahaha…” Otto laughed. “Kiana, you still don’t understand me…Even if the road ahead is a bottomless abyss? So what? If I don’t try, how can I know that it is the abyss? What’s more…I have already been in the abyss.”

Kiana was silent.

"Instead of thinking about whether I can do it, Kiana, what do you think you can do? Or, do you know what you need to do?" Otto asked with a smile.

"No worries."

"Okay, okay, I won't say much about this. The little girl from Anti-Entropy, or the future leader of Anti-Entropy, is she going to the World Serpent with you?" Otto did not continue asking, but changed the subject.

"It is true. I agreed to it." Kiana said calmly, "Although the concept of anti-entropy is a bit naive, Bronya is different. I just believe in her, not anti-entropy... However, if you want to trip up Bronya or something..."

Kiana paused for a moment, then continued, "I can help you recall the feeling of being beaten by the Herrscher of Knowledge."

"Oh, there's no need for that. I'm not that ignorant." Otto shook his head and said, "What a touching friendship. Don't worry, Kiana, I don't need to deal with Bronya specifically, because..."

"Do you think the current anti-entropy still needs to be specifically targeted by the current destiny?"

Kiana was silent. It seemed that what Otto said was correct. On the side of Tianming, there was sister Bianca as the strongest combat force, and there were also Angelica and Anna, who were at the level of Herrscher. On the other hand, Anti-Entropy only had a Mr. Walter as the pillar to support it. Even if we had to count Dean Xuezhuang and Wendy, Tianming still had Senior Suchang and Aunt Maria.

Not to mention, even though he now holds a high status in the Shanyat family, Otto is still the leader of the Black Abyss from beginning to end. Otto has the power to mobilize the power of the Black Abyss. In this way, the combat power gap between Anti-Entropy and Destiny is further widened.

In addition, the information currently held by Anti-Entropy and Destiny is completely unequal. There is not much research on Anti-Entropy regarding the Void Tree God's Corpse, and as the energy level of the Collapse increases, the scope of Titan's application will also decrease accordingly. In other words, even if Destiny does nothing, Anti-Entropy will continue to be weakened.

Therefore, Otto really doesn't need to specifically target Anti-Entropy - provided that after Anti-Entropy, he won't step into Otto's minefield again.

Yes, this guy who always seems to have everything under control and is always calm and in control also has minefields.

If the information he had learned was correct, Otto had not intended to take the Battle of Haiyuan City seriously. However, after the Kolosten incident, Otto seemed to be serious about it.

Unfortunately, he had no idea what happened inside. Although the person directly involved in the mission was Ivar from the Black Abyss, he was unwilling to reveal anything and he really couldn't do anything about him. After all, Otto was the leader of the Black Abyss, not him.

The only thing we know is that Shanyiat's old house in Klosten was within the destroyed building range. Considering that Otto did have an old relationship with the head of the Shanyiat family of that generation and that the relationship was not shallow, it was most likely related to Eleanor Shanyiat.

As for Senior Kallen... maybe this factor is also involved. The old house of Kaslana's family was also attacked.

All in all, as long as you don't hinder Otto's plan and don't step on his minefields, Anti-Entropy really doesn't need Otto to specifically target it now.

"That's it..." Kiana lowered her eyes and thought, "This way, Bronya, you can also look for the answers you want in the World Serpent with peace of mind. Before you find the path you really want to walk, Anti-Entropy will not fall so quickly..."

As for other things, Kiana couldn't do anything. After all, although she did have some say in World Snake, she couldn't openly help Anti-Entropy. If she helped once, she would be indirectly telling others that she wanted to support Anti-Entropy... She wasn't that stupid.

Thinking of this, Kiana said: "So, this is what you want to say?"

"Ah, indeed, there is more to it than that." Otto showed a half-smile, "After all, you Herrschers who have human will and are willing to fight for humanity are also the last hope against the end of the world. I am just curious, what do you think of the Herrscher of Thunder?"

"...No comment." Kiana said coldly. She would not judge her friend in front of Otto.

"Haha, it doesn't matter if you don't say it, because I can see it." Otto said meaningfully, "Although you regard her as a friend, you don't trust her. I mean... you don't trust her ability to be your companion. I recognize your friendship, but... the path you are walking on is not something that everyone can walk with you."

"If you have something to say, just say it directly. Why beat around the bush?" Kiana said.

"Then let me be frank. The Herrscher of Thunder... did not break free from the shackles of the dream by her own strength." Otto said, "I am sure of this."

Kiana's pupils shrank slightly, but on second thought, apart from the initial surprise, she really had no more emotions, because she was not surprised. Rather, it was the fact that she thought Mei broke free from the dream by her own will that really surprised her at the beginning.

"How can I believe that what you say is true?"

"You don't have to be so wary of me all the time, Kiana." Otto said, "At least now, you and I are on the same side. We both want to defeat Honkai, right? I'm not an obstacle to you. On the contrary, I'm very willing to be your helper. The Herrscher of Lightning is in her current state and will one day become an obstacle to humans on the road to fighting Honkai. This time she was able to get out of trouble with the help of others, but what about the next time? What about the next time? How can she expect others to help her again and again?"

Kiana was silent.

"I've been through this before, Kiana." Otto put one hand on his chest and said in a sad tone, "I've encountered this kind of thing more than once. Take the most recent one for example. Although I need to take a lot of responsibility in this matter, it's not all my fault that led to everything that happened. After all, I can't control a person's thoughts and make him act completely according to my thinking, right?"

Kiana narrowed her eyes slightly. She seemed to know what Otto was talking about...

"Don't you think that the Herrscher of Thunder is somewhat similar to Siegfried Kaslana back then? Ah, sorry, I had forgotten that he had been stripped of the name of Kaslana, but that doesn't matter anymore." Otto calmly looked at Kiana's face, which suddenly darkened. "It's good to have a sense of justice, but you can't act impulsively because of your sense of justice and let others pay the price for it. Think about the Kaslana family after that, and think about the poor old Kaslana family head. Kiana, if you continue to let the Herrscher of Thunder go on like this, she will be trapped in her obsession, getting deeper and deeper, and in the end, she will also let others pay the price for her willfulness."

Kiana stared at Otto coldly. It was hard for her to comment on Siegfried's affairs, but Otto brought Siegfried up so openly...

No matter what, Kiana still feels guilty towards Siegfried.

"I just hope you can think about it carefully, and learn to be ruthless when necessary." Otto said with a serious expression, "It is not a long-term solution to leave the authority of the Herrscher of Thunder in her hands. If we want to defeat Honkai in the end, no, even for the Forerunners and Lucifer, we should not allow any accidents to happen, right?"

Kiana was silent. Otto was asking her to take back the authority over Mei, and she had to admit that what Otto said was indeed correct...

After a long while, she finally spoke: "Since you mentioned Siegfried, Otto, I have a question for you. Do you know about his disappearance in the Anti-Entropy Base? How much do you know?"

"If it weren't for you, Lucifer would have taken his life long ago. You and him should have no ties at all." Otto spread his hands. "Lucifer...he has indeed always been thinking about you and alleviating the unnecessary guilt you have towards Siegfried."

"...I know. So, how much do you know?"

"I can only say that I know a little bit. If I guess correctly, he should be in Kaslana's stigmata space." Otto said, "However, the control of Kaslana's stigmata space is in Kevin's hands. Going there to rescue him... Ha, is he worth it for you to do so?"

"...Mr. Siegfried did me a favor after all."

"He was kind to you? Does he mean that he didn't allow you to receive a formal education before you were 12? Does he mean that he left you on your 12th birthday and left you to survive on your own? Lucifer taught you all your knowledge and fighting skills, Kiana. Does he mean that he was just taking up the title of "father" for nothing?"

"..."

"You are too kind and too indecisive, Kiana. Think about it carefully. What kind of favor did he show you? How did you get your current name? If those four years were his favor to you, then didn't you repay it when Lucifer went to Anti-Entropy to take back the Holy Fire Judgement? If it weren't for you, he would have died long ago."

"……I……"

"But I am willing to help you and put an end to everything between you and Siegfried..."

"why?"

"Didn't I tell you? We are in the same camp. I am your most suitable ally. I will help you get what you want. You know, if you want to save Siegfried, how can you face the savior hero, Kaslana's ancestor? And, what you want to get...how are you going to fight against another ancestor of Shaniyat?"

"…So, what's the price? Otto, what do you want?"

Chapter 149 Return

"So, Herrscher of Consciousness, you originally wanted to return to the World Serpent and confront Alicia face to face, but you ran into Alicia on the way back... So after the fight, you decided to return to Taixu Mountain first?"

On the way back to the World Serpent, Kiana heard the Herrscher of Knowledge talk about the beginning of everything.

Originally, she had wanted to ask the Herrscher of Consciousness about this matter when she was in Taixu Mountain before, but the Herrscher of Consciousness got angry when he mentioned this, and she didn't get to ask anything at all. She only knew that the Herrscher of Consciousness finally appeared in Taixu Mountain and that the strange phenomenon in Taixu Mountain was closely related to Alicia.

Now the Herrscher of Consciousness was subdued, or rather, he was exhausted and had no temper left, so naturally he told everyone on the way what had happened before.

“Hey, hey, hey, let me make one thing clear. It’s not that I can’t beat Alicia.” The Herrscher of Knowledge still tried to save his dignity. “It’s that Alicia has the Future in her hands. If we don’t count the Future, I’m still better than her in terms of martial arts attainments!”

Kiana glanced at the Herrscher of Knowledge but didn't expose her. In terms of strength alone, even if the Herrscher of Knowledge had Fu Hua's body and all her memories, Fu Hua had never defeated Alicia since 50,000 years ago. 50,000 years later...

She thought again about the joining forces of Alicia and Kevin, which was the most troublesome thing. One of them was Feng's wife and the other was Feng's best friend. When the forerunners divided the three keys of time, they took away the [Future] and [Past] respectively. In addition, even without the two keys of time, Alicia and Kevin were the strongest among the heroes except Feng. When the two of them joined forces, the other heroes combined might not be their opponents.

Moreover, they may have other heroes as helpers.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to find out what Alicia and Kevin's plan is...

To be honest, Kiana has never seen Alicia's real strength so far, but she has seen Kevin's strength, whether it was when he fought the End with him as the [Savior] Kevin in Feng's memory, or when he appeared as the Demon in daily training.

That feeling of oppression...

Moreover, unlike the demon posture of Kevin in Paradise, the demon Kevin in reality... in addition to the sense of oppression, also has a sense of heaviness that comes from human history.

Where he stood was the history of the confrontation between humans and Honkai.

And Alicia... Compared to the Alicia in Feng's past memories, the current Alicia, even the Alicia in the paradise, is a little different...

If it is said that in Feng's memory, the Alicia who walked with him, met and fell in love with him, always had goodwill towards the world and always had enthusiasm for the world...

The paradise and reality of Alicia are no longer the same.

Although Alicia in Paradise was still curious about the outside world and kind to visitors, she had already shown signs of being away from the world. All her curiosity was just curiosity. The changes in the outside world did not seem to have much appeal to her, and even the number of visitors who had seen her was very small.

As for the real Alicia, Kiana thought that if Feng hadn't come back, Alicia would probably continue to lock herself in the "future" and ignore the world.

It seems that the world has no meaning to her except for her longing for the old people.

Given that Alicia has never fought seriously either in Paradise or in reality, Kiana cannot judge what level Alicia's current strength is at, but there is no doubt that she is definitely at the same level as Kevin.

"No matter what... after returning to World Serpent this time, I need to meet with Alicia..." Kiana thought with her eyes lowered.

"[Future]? What is that?"

Bronya was curious about this somewhat unfamiliar term, while Mei, who had remained silent on the road, raised her eyes slightly. She seemed to have heard the word "future" somewhere before.

It sounded like the name of a God's Key? But she had seen the names of almost all the God's Keys in Paradise, starting with the First God's Key, Void Myriad Treasures, and ending with the Eleventh God's Key, Judah's Oath. The Twelfth God's Key had not yet been successfully manufactured when the previous civilization collapsed. The First God's Key... seemed to have been successfully manufactured when the previous civilization collapsed? Paradise's records on this were also a little vague...

However, judging from the tone of the Herrscher of Knowledge, this so-called [Future] might not be an ordinary Key of God...

Suddenly, Mei suddenly remembered an experience before coming to Taixu Mountain, about the thirteenth divine key... That's right, this divine key is the most mysterious divine key so far. When she asked Ying Jie in Paradise, she almost got into danger because of it. When she asked Kiana, Kiana's first reaction was also alert.

If the Thirteenth God Key is really that important, it wouldn't be strange for Alicia to have it...

Although Mei already had some guesses in her heart, considering that even Kiana was taboo about this, she chose to remain silent. Besides, she didn't dare to speak at this time.

Because she really doubted whether Otto had noticed something and "complained" to Kiana in the barrier...

Hearing Bronya's question, Herrscher of Knowledge and Kiana turned their eyes to her. After looking at each other, Herrscher of Knowledge waved his hand and said, "Aren't you going to the World Serpent for further studies? You will know what you need to know in due time. This is a question that children should not ask too much."

Don't ask too many questions, kids?

A question mark popped up in Bronya's head. To be honest, in terms of age, she is about the same age as Kiana? And to be honest, if we really talk about the age of the Herrscher of Knowledge, it seems that she is less than a month old, right?

"Hey, Bronya, don't think I don't know what you're saying in your heart?" The Herrscher of Knowledge frowned, "I'm telling you, even if I'm not the real Hua, I still have Hua's memories, and I'm still the Herrscher of Knowledge. You can't hide anything from me!"

Mei suddenly felt a chill on her back, and then she thought to herself that she was also a Herrscher. The Herrscher of Knowledge should not use her authority to judge her thoughts casually, right?

The Herrscher of Knowledge glanced at Mei, then looked at Kiana, and complained in his heart: "You are just like what Otto said, indecisive... If you are wrong, you are wrong, you have to admit your mistakes, and you have to stand at attention when you are beaten. What are you doing here... One is pretending not to know, and the other is trying hard to hide it and is always worried about being exposed..."

She knew what Kiana was thinking. After learning that Mei did not break free from the dream through her own efforts, Kiana did not choose to expose her immediately, but chose to give Mei a chance.

It is not shameful to overcome a difficult situation with the help of others this time. As long as you can do it yourself next time, there will be no problem.

Of course, the Herrscher of Knowledge would definitely not admit it. She was somewhat grateful to Kiana for not exposing her initial words. After all, in her own understanding, the battle between Alicia and Renta... In fact, Alicia didn't use the power of the [Future] at all, nor did she use her full strength, but she really couldn't beat that woman.

It's not like she hadn't thought about using Yu Duchen, or using her own authority to check on Alysia's thoughts, but Alysia was simply immune to her authority...

"I see. Then Bronya, just go find the answer yourself when the time comes." Bronya didn't ask any more questions. She had a clear idea of ​​who she was. She was just a seeker of knowledge, nothing more.

She looked down at her chest again. When she parted with Walter and the others, Walter handed her the core of the Herrscher of Reason. Although she had not yet fully mastered the power of the Herrscher of Reason, in order to make it easier for her to move around in the World Serpent and to have an extra trump card, Walter gave Bronya the only Herrscher core held by Anti-Entropy and asked her to take it to the World Serpent.

Although this matter is a secret, Bronya is not sure whether Kiana knows about it. However, judging by the ability of the Herrscher of Knowledge, she most likely knows about it.

"Bronya will definitely find a way to reverse the future of entropy, and will definitely try to understand the past of the pioneers, face up to the present of mankind, and then... she and Kiana will shoulder the future of the world together." Bronya said in her heart, "Saving the world has never been and cannot be a one-person journey..."

The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at Bronya, nodded with an expression that said "this child is teachable", and then looked at Mei. At this time, Mei had decided to read a book to pass the time and act as if she was nowhere to be seen. He couldn't help but shook his head again.

If she remembered correctly, Mei, Bronya, and Kiana were all in the same class, right? Kiana could still say that it was because Kaede taught her well, but Bronya and Mei had no such excuse. Mei joined the World Snake earlier, so how come it seems that Bronya, who just decided to join the World Snake, is closer to Kiana than Mei?

It’s just… a future of anti-entropy?

"The Mandate of Heaven is corrupt, anti-entropy is incapable, and heroes are few and far between in the world," said the Herr of Knowledge.

Bronya looked at the Herrscher of Knowledge. She knew very well that the Herrscher of Knowledge was talking to her.

"This world has never lacked people with ideals, but it doesn't need people who only have ideals..." The Herrscher of Knowledge crossed his legs, propped up his head with one hand and closed his eyes and said, "I'm not saying anything bad about you, Bronya, but the future Honkai will definitely be stronger than today's. Although Otto of Destiny is not a good guy, after Kallen's resurrection, Otto is still working diligently. But you Anti-Entropy... Well, Walter is a brick, and he can be moved wherever he is needed, right?"

Bronya was silent. She really had no words to say.

"Such a large organization can only rely on Walter in the end. If Theresa could not help, how would you face the next collapse?" The Herrscher of Knowledge continued, "Walter could suppress the Second Herrscher in the Second Collapse, but what about after that? I can defeat Walter with one hand without any pressure. And I also have the Herrscher of Stone, the predecessor of the Star of Eden, the real gravity manipulator. What can you, Anti-Entropy, rely on to fight against the Herrscher of Stone?"

Kiana coughed and said, "Hersher of Consciousness... your body is still the class monitor's body after all. Even if the Herrsher of Stone has a higher Houku level than you, if you really count, it is still not as good as you..."

"Hiss... That makes sense, Kiana... No, you're wrong. What do you mean by not as good as me? That means much worse than me!"

When the Herrscher of Knowledge said this, Kiana seemed to see a cat's tail shaking behind him.

Forget it, let it be.

She has already mastered the method of controlling the rhythm of the Herrscher of Consciousness, which is not very difficult.

"Then, Herrscher of Knowledge, if you have inherited the monitor's memories as a pioneer, can you tell me whether the ideal of anti-entropy... is right or wrong?" Bronya asked.
