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

"Uncle, do you want to go back to Foros with me? Although you are very powerful, it is also very dangerous outside." Yi Xin said, "Besides, I also want to become as strong as you, uncle."

Feng glanced at Floss not far away again.

"No need, you go back first, Yixin. I'll come to visit you another day." Feng's tone was a little calmer. He really didn't have time to go back with Yixin to see Foros. After all, this time he noticed the abnormality of Idealism and came here directly. He didn't plan to stay here for too long.

In addition, he has already had some guesses about the situation of Foros, an asteroid at the edge of the solar system, and he needs to go back there to verify it.

“Oh…” Yi Xin seemed a little depressed when he heard that.

"Don't worry, we will meet again." Feng said.

So, after saying goodbye to Yi Xin, Feng, who was in the stigmata space of Shaniyat, opened his eyes.

After a brief moment of reflection, he called up the idealistic record.

Idealism is essentially the virtual tree god skeleton born from another backup plan of the current civilization planned by Rofko and Admiller. It brings together thousands of ideals just to build an ideal world.

Now it seems that there is something somewhere that I don’t know about.

Then, he found the data he was looking for in the records of Idealism, and after reading those data, he couldn't help but twitch his eyes.

Admiral, you really dare...

In order to achieve fault tolerance measurement and to collect sufficient data, Flos... is basically a testing ground created by Admiller using another existence.

Their civilization has experienced countless destruction and rebirth, reincarnation and despair over a long period of time. All of this has been recorded in idealism and has become the cornerstone of idealism.

No wonder... He said that idealistic data collection was so fast, and such a huge amount of data was collected with only thousands of years of history of modern civilization. It turned out that there was another place providing the data for this.

The essence of a transaction is the exchange of interests. The small amount of power that was stripped away from him was the bargaining chip between Admiller and another existence. Although Feng didn't know what the other existence wanted to do, one thing that was clear was that Admiller really achieved his goal.

It seems that I have to "friendly" ask Admiller what arrangements he has made without telling me. After that, I may have to go to Foros to confirm the specific situation.

After all, although Admiller is reliable in his work, he is also good at making trouble. He criticized the Eighth Herrscher incident in the previous civilization and the current civilization's attempt to lock Kiana in the time desert.

Just as Feng was thinking, Graysh's voice sounded from behind him.

"Brother Yufeng, Kiana and the others are ready to go to Saint Freya. Tianming is also ready to deal with it. Sister Destobia and Kosmo have also gone to Saint Freya, but the Herrscher of the Stone has not shown any signs of starting to move so far."

“Is that so…” Feng came back to his senses from his thoughts and turned to look at Grayshuin, “Then what have Mebius and the others done recently?”

"Sister Alicia seems to be very interested in these things, but I only know that their plan is related to the World Bubble." Grayshu said.

Feng nodded, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked: "...Grayshu, what kind of gift should I bring to meet a child?"

After all, he had to go to Foros again. Although he instinctively disliked that place, he had a good impression of Yi Xin. If they met again, it would not be impossible for him to use his ability of idealism and bring some gifts.

Grace slowly typed a question mark.

What happened in a place she didn't know? What the hell was Brother Yufeng talking about? When did he become interested in other children? Aren't they all cold and indifferent? Bring a gift?

Wait, excluding myself, sister Astaroth, Lilim, Mavis, and Kiana, if that's the case...

Grayshu's eyes began to become strange when he looked at Feng.

Could it be that Brother Yufeng has found a sister or adopted a daughter somewhere?

at the same time.

"…I knew that guy must have forgotten me."

Chapter 166: It’s time to show off. No more acting!

Saint Freya.

"What? Destobia, you mean... a new Herrscher has appeared in Saint Freya?" Theresa looked at Destobia in front of her in disbelief and said, "And you ran from Tianming to Saint Freya for this?"

"... Theresa, you should also know that as long as you are willing now, Destiny can accept Saint Freya again at any time." Destobia said with her hands on the school principal's desk, "And I can tell you with certainty that this news comes from Lucifer. He confirmed that the Herrscher of the Rock is currently in Saint Freya, but has not yet awakened."

"Herrserker of Rock... Has Destiny already analyzed the Herrserker's authority?" Theresa frowned slightly.

Desdobia let out a long breath and then said, "This is recorded in the ruins left behind by the previous civilization. The Ninth Herrscher is the Herrscher of Rock. His ability is gravity manipulation, which is the ability of the Star of Eden... According to the records of the ruins unearthed by Tianming, in the previous civilization, the Ninth Herrscher once sank the Mu Continent, the center of the world at that time, with a full force attack."

If Feng and Mebius had not established an industrial system outside Mu Continent in advance, the entire industrial system of human civilization would have been completely destroyed by this attack from the Ninth Herrscher.

"I see... In other words, the Herrscher is secretly behind the current situation in Saint Freya, right?" Theresa's tone became flat.

"Maybe, but... nothing always happens without a whim. I also know about Saint Freya's current situation. Theresa, I am your friend, and if you still think of me as your friend, I hope you can think about it carefully." Desdobia's tone was very sincere. "As long as you are willing, destiny will definitely accept Saint Freya again. Moreover, you should also know that Kallen Kaslana has been resurrected. With her around, Otto's behavior will be restrained."

She was just about to make it clear that there was no future in following Anti-Entropy.

"Saint Freya has become a hotbed for the birth of Herrschers. These are Lucifer's original words." Desdobia continued, "Theresa, I know your concerns and your grudge against Otto, but think about it carefully. Didn't you lead the Far East Branch to rebel against the Destiny in the first place just to be taken to the Destiny Airport? And Kiana hasn't suffered any injustice now. She has established a firm foothold in the Shaniyat family. So what reason do you have to continue to oppose the Destiny?"

Theresa was silent.

Well, in a sense, what Desdobia said was not wrong. If Kiana had not been brought back to the Sky Harbor, she would still choose to compromise while being dissatisfied with Otto. But there are always unexpected things, and it only takes a suitable opportunity for long-term dissatisfaction to be detonated.

Theresa has a big shortcoming, which is that she is too nostalgic for old relationships and tends to become indecisive.

Previously, she had chosen to leave the headquarters and go to the Far East Branch to establish Saint Freya. She had endured the experiments on the Desire Gem that were carried out by Destiny on Wendy. A large part of the reason was that she was indecisive due to Otto's excessive indulgence and leniency towards her when she was a child, which made it difficult for her to completely break up with Otto.

The same is true now. Although rationally speaking, abandoning Anti-Entropy and returning to Destiny is the best choice for Saint Freya, she is very clear that once she completely breaks with Anti-Entropy, the situation of several old friends on the Anti-Entropy side will become very difficult.

This is why Theresa kept delaying her return to destiny.

She knew very well in her heart that no matter how many tragedies Otto had caused or how many evil things he had done in the past, as long as Kallen was by his side, he would probably be more restrained in his actions after his wish was fulfilled. Moreover, she also knew that Otto was gradually handing over power to Yulandel and others, so...

In fact, she no longer had any reason to continue fighting against Otto.

But she was too nostalgic. During the time Walter was in Saint Freya, she saw how he cultivated Wendy and Bronya. She even gave the Herrscher Core to Bronya because she trusted him and asked Bronya to take it to the World Serpent...

"I see. Thank you for telling me this, Desdobia." Theresa pressed her brows and said, "Thank you... but let me think about it again... I'm sorry..."

"Theresa..." Desdobia looked at Theresa with a complicated expression. After a long while, she sighed helplessly and said, "I... I will be here all this time. I know Saint Freya is your hard work, and I will help you. But, Theresa, you will have to make a decision sooner or later. As long as the current environment continues, even if the Ninth Herrscher is defeated, the Tenth and Eleventh Herrschers will probably be born in Saint Freya... You have to solve the problem from the root."

Isn't the root of the problem... the current conflict between St. Freya's students and Anti-Entropy?

Theresa looked up at Desdobia, and after a long while she gave a somewhat forced smile and said, "Thank you, Desdobia, you've worked hard."

"Theresa..." Desdobia lowered her eyes, opened her mouth and seemed to want to say something, but finally shook her head gently, said nothing more, and chose to leave.

Theresa watched Desdobia leave, her eyes becoming distant.

She dreamed of Desdobia and Kosmo, so she actually knew Desdobia's identity, a pioneer from a previous civilization.

She still remembered that in her dream, she had risked everything to intercept the Herrscher who was almost impossible to defeat, and tried everything to delay time. At the most critical moment, it was Desdobia who arrived in time. Even though she knew that the only outcome she would face was death, Desdobia still chose to come, and together with her she gained the most critical time and achieved the final victory.

"I'm sorry to bother you again, Desdobia."

Theresa jumped off her chair and walked to the French window of the principal's office. She looked at the scenery outside the window and sighed quietly, "Am I...making trouble for myself?"

Desdobia was right. Sooner or later, she would have to make a choice. Now that the Herrscher had been born in Saint Freya, the conflict between Saint Freya and Anti-Entropy had intensified. The past could not be changed, but the future could still be pursued. She had to make a decision by the end of this incident at the latest.

"Anti-entropy... Dr. Einstein and Dr. Tesla, I hope your research progress will yield sufficient results."

Normally, those people would come here to negotiate terms with Theresa, and Theresa would just put up with it and let it go, not wanting to bother about it. However, her students were her bottom line, and she didn't care if those people did something to disgust her, but they shouldn't and couldn't use their students' affairs as conditions.

The pressure from Honkai that Saint Freya is facing now is no less than that from Anti-Entropy. Those people are also trying to strangle Saint Freya on the most critical issue of equipment, attempting to gain an advantageous position in the negotiations and force Theresa to compromise.

In the past, Theresa might have endured some grievances for the sake of making everyone get along with each other, but after experiencing those dreams, Theresa's thoughts changed slightly.

For example, now, she has no intention of continuing to pamper those people. She has put the conditions there. They either accept them or disagree and continue to fight with her. After she has fought off the enemies here, she will take Saint Freya back to Tianming. Anyway, this will be worthy of the help from Anti-Entropy before.

As for negotiation? There was no point in talking. Theresa simply refused to negotiate.

Negotiations also require bargaining chips, the problem is that the bargaining chips in Theresa's hand have made those people's bargaining chips worthless. They think that Theresa has no other way out except to continue cooperating with Anti-Entropy, but Theresa can really turn back the tide.

Not long after Desdobia left, Theresa received another communication.

"Principal Theresa, why hasn't Saint Freya sent a Valkyrie to support us when we have a collapse?"

Listening to the somewhat anxious voice on the other end of the communicator, Theresa sat on the chair, continued to review the documents without even raising her eyelids, and then calmly replied: "Sorry, Saint Freya's idle Valkyrie's equipment is still being repaired. Please continue to hold on for a while. Once we have repaired it here or the collapse in other areas has been dealt with, we will come to support you as soon as possible."

"That's what you said last time! I'm almost using up all the Titans here, and after I finally cleared them out once, they showed up again!"

"Ah, there's nothing we can do about it, right? After all, Saint Freya's equipment hasn't been repaired yet, and the soldiers' guns can't have problems on the battlefield."

"Don't you have any intention of contributing to the support we give you, Saint Freya? Isn't it the duty of a warrior to accept favors and go to the battlefield for the people?"

"Support? But if I remember correctly, the equipment and materials I purchased recently at a price 30% higher than usual have not yet arrived at Saint Freya?" For the first time, Theresa felt that seeing others getting angry was not a bad thing. "If the equipment and materials cannot arrive, it will be difficult for us."

"As long as Principal Theresa can send out the Valkyries to clear out the Houkai here, these materials and equipment will be delivered immediately!"

"Isn't this what you should have done? When did it become that we have to pay you and then do things for you before we can get the things?" Theresa asked with a sneer.

The person on the other end of the communicator was suddenly speechless.

After a long while, the person on the other side spoke in a low voice: "Principal Theresa, do you really want to continue wasting time like this? What good will this do to either of us?"

"I should be asking you this. Saint Freya has her own rules. If you can accept them, then accept them. If you don't, then you have to rely on your own hands to fight against the Honkai?" Theresa's tone was calm. She didn't take the threat in the other party's words seriously at all. If it was the Theresa of the past, she would definitely be shocked to see her current appearance, but the fact is... Theresa has let it go.

Theresa had also communicated with Anti-Entropy about Saint Freya's current situation, and the final result was that Anti-Entropy would find a way to deal with those people. If they could deal with them, they would deal with them, and if they couldn't... it had nothing to do with Saint Freya.

"Principal Theresa, you have to know that Saint Freya is no longer the same Saint Freya. To put it bluntly, we are all on the same side, and the premise of cooperation is the exchange of interests. Your stubbornness will not benefit either of us, and will only allow Tianming to gain an advantage for nothing."

"An exchange of interests? Isn't it the interest we exchanged that Saint Freya's Valkyrie risked her own life to ensure the safety of the people? Why don't you ask for too much and stretch your hand too far?"

"Ha... Principal Theresa, do you think we are still in the same situation as before? Since we have broken away from the destiny and become independent, Saint Freya should also abide by the new rules, right?"

"What are the rules? Who makes the rules?"

"you……"

"Alright, I don't want to continue this meaningless discussion with you. This is my ultimatum and my last official reply. Listen carefully: Saint Freya, it's not that we can't regain our destiny, and it's not that we don't have a way out. But have you thought about the way out in advance?"

Theresa no longer planned to act anymore. She didn't have the energy to argue with this group of people. She just threw out the trump card. No matter whether they believed it or not, she had already said it. It depended on whether they dared to take the gamble.

On the other end of the communicator, the person who was talking to Theresa was shaking with trembling hands, and said in disbelief: "Return to Tianming? You have already betrayed Tianming and attacked Tianming Airport. Now you say you want to go back to Tianming? What do you think Tianming is? Is it a place where you can go back and leave whenever you want?!"

"I am the head of the Apokalis family, the acknowledged granddaughter of Otto Apokalis, the Bishop of the Fate of Heaven, the former commander of the Valkyrie of the Fate of Heaven, and a friend of Shaniat. Is this enough?"

"Even if you can turn back the clock, can your situation be any better than it is now?!"

"Chief Instructor Cheng Lixue of the Destiny Valkyrie is my comrade-in-arms and friend. Deputy Instructor Desdobia is also my close friend. The relationship between the Shanyat family and me is not as bad as you think. So...please answer me, even if I return to Destiny, can the situation be worse than it is now?"

Let’s be frank. I’m not going to act anymore. Do you really think I’m a Judas launch pad?

Theresa just didn't want to take extreme measures like Otto. For subordinates who don't obey their orders, Tianming has a special scavenger Valkyrie, and the Shanyiat family also has its own hunting dogs. After the last Singapore incident, those who participated in the incident were replaced by Ivar on the grounds of the occurrence of Honkai.

Theresa just didn't want to do that, so she didn't set up the Scavenger Valkyrie in Saint Freya.

So, in a sense, they might really have to be thankful that the person negotiating with them here was Theresa. If it had been Maria or Otto, they might not even have the chance to sit at the negotiating table.

After saying this, Theresa quickly cut off the call and let out a long sigh.

Cool!

Chapter 167 When the Ideal Has Decayed

Inverse entropy.

"Do those guys have no brains or have their brains been eaten by Honkai beasts?!" Tesla said frantically, "How many drugs did they take to damage their brains to threaten Theresa?!"

After Theresa confronted the congressman who tried to threaten her, the congressman immediately reported the matter to Congress, and Congress immediately informed Anti-Entropy and told it in stern terms that it had to find a way to coordinate the matter with Theresa.

Tesla couldn't figure out what gave that group of people the confidence to directly threaten Theresa. In addition to demanding that Saint Freya's Valkyrie be mobilized under their arrangement, they also wanted to ask Wendy, as the fourth Herrscher, to accept their supervision. The reason was legitimate.

When Wendy awakened as the Fourth Herrscher, she destroyed the Oceania branch of Sentence and caused damage to the Oceania region that has not yet been fully repaired.

The problem is, no matter how legitimate your reasons are, if the gun is in someone else's hands, can you still expect them to hand it over to you on their own initiative?

What brain?

"Joachim, Chicken-Cot Hair, why don't you say something? It's not a good idea for us to continue like this." Tesla looked at Walter and Einstein who had remained silent. "The Congress is really too arrogant. If we continue like this..."

"If this continues, what can we do?" Einstein supported his chin with both hands and said expressionlessly, "Dr. Tesla, we all know that if it weren't for their relentless pressure, Ms. Theresa would never have thought of returning to Heaven's Will. In the final analysis, Anti-Entropy and Saint Freya are only a strategic alliance. If Heaven's Will is really willing to accept Saint Freya again, we really have no advantage over Heaven's Will."

"Tsk..."

Hearing this, Tesla was also very troubled.

"Then are we just going to do nothing? We also know the situation in Saint Freya. Theresa is still cooperating with Anti-Entropy because of Joachim's consideration. The Valkyries are so resentful." Tesla said helplessly, "And...tsk..."

Anti-Entropy is naturally also stepping up its research on absurdism and the skeleton of the virtual tree, but the problem is that this is a completely new field for them. Compared to Tianming, who has already done some research on this, Anti-Entropy is basically starting from scratch in their research on these.

However, Einstein and Tesla were very clear about one thing: no matter how much they speeded up their research, the collapse might not leave them so much time.

In comparison, the advantages that destiny possesses are truly breathtaking.

After all, the ancestors of the three major families who established the Mandate of Heaven were pioneers themselves. No matter how many wrong things the Mandate of Heaven had done in the course of history, for the course of history, the merits of the Mandate of Heaven always outweighed its faults. Similarly, no matter how many evil things Otto had done in the five hundred years that he had been in power, in fact, for the pioneers, they did not touch their bottom line too much.

In other words, Tianming has a history of thousands of years. No matter how corrupt it is, it is an organization established by the forerunners to fight against the collapse in order to protect mankind. Its foundation is there, which is far from comparable to Anti-Entropy, which has only been established for a few decades.

The reason why the North American branch of Mandate, the predecessor of Anti-Entropy, was able to successfully separate from Mandate was partly because Nancy had almost sidelined the top management of the North American branch of Mandate at the time, and partly because Mandate did not actually attach importance to the North American branch, and Otto turned a blind eye to what Nancy wanted to do.
