Feng and Alicia stopped at a mural in the city center, looking at the contents of the mural thoughtfully. Feng looked at Yixin, who was acting as a tour guide, and asked, "Yixin, what is painted on this painting?"

"This is the story of the birth of Pholos." Yixin also looked at the mural. "It was created by Tuohe."

"The birth of Flos?" Feng raised his eyebrows.

"Yes." Yi Xin nodded. "According to legend, Foros was originally a barren land. Then one day, an angel named Lucifer rebelled against the Creator in heaven. He was eventually shot down from the sky by the Creator. His wings fell into the sea and were picked up by the Creator in the sea. He used this as a medium to create Foros."

Alicia looked at Feng, and Feng looked up at the sky.

If this is the explanation, it is indeed correct. In the battle between him and the End, Admiral and Rovko used the shock generated by the battle to connect to the Quantum Sea, and afterwards completed a transaction with "Su".

Foros...is indeed a civilization created by using his own authority and the power of "Sa".

But why use the name Lucifer? He thought he would have another name or something.

Feng's gaze fell on the mural again. In this mural, the angel called "Lucifer" was not as hideous and terrifying as the fallen angel described by the Earth civilization. On the contrary, the creator portrayed "Lucifer" as very sacred and noble, looking like a hero who was rebelling against the tyrant in heaven.

"Ikaros..." Alicia suddenly said softly.

Feng looked at Alicia.

"This is a story from ancient Greece, ha, although to me, it is a real thing that happened." Alicia said while looking at the mural, "When Ikaros escaped from the island that imprisoned him and his father, he flapped his artificial wings with all his strength and flew towards the sun. In the end, the wax that fixed the feathers was melted by the heat of the sun, and he finally fell into the sea. It's really similar, what do you think, Feng?"

Feng thought about it seriously and said, "...I remember this is a fable that teaches children to know themselves."

At least from the story described by Alicia, he felt that it should be like this. He might have heard this story somewhere before, but the time was too long ago and he really couldn't remember it.

"Indeed, in everyone's eyes, Ikaros died in an accident due to his arrogance. But what if Ikaros said in person when he was very young: 'I will fly to the sky and welcome my victory by falling'?" Alicia looked at Feng, "Mavis and I once witnessed Ikaros' fall. Of course, before that, I also saw my own 'Ikaros' fall."

After a pause, Alicia asked again: "Feng, tell me, why can birds fly?"

Why can birds fly?

Yi Xin, who was standing aside, looked up at a bird resting on a branch of a tree. This question... uh... is it because birds yearn for the sky that they can fly?

"Because they must learn to fly." Feng replied, "When the meteorite of doom falls, only birds that can fly can escape the inevitable destruction and have the qualifications to choose their own future."

"What if they still haven't learned to fly when the meteorite falls?"

"Then I will decide their future for them." Feng looked into Alicia's eyes and said, "Kevin also told me about this question. Kevin and I have the same answer to this question, but the paths we are taking are not exactly the same. However, I believe we will reach a consensus in the end."

To prevent the sun from setting, to prevent the times from falling into silence, I will fly into the sky, snatch away the light from the earth, my wings will melt, and I will fall to the ground with the last spark in my arms. If I want to take back the light of civilization... then I will leap over and fly to a higher place than I have ever been.

This is Kevin's answer, and it is also Feng's answer.

After a moment of silence, Feng suddenly laughed: "So, it seems that I did the same thing as Ikaros..."

In the earthly story, Lucifer rebelled against the gods because of his arrogance, and his fall seemed inevitable. It was an act of overestimating his own abilities because he did not recognize his own strength. But what if... Lucifer himself never thought that he could win from the beginning?

Or perhaps he already knew that even if he eventually fell to the earth, the so-called Creator would still be unable to stop him from seizing his own victory. His own fall was a concession that the Creator had to make.

Yes, from the very beginning, when everyone thought that if they could start over again they would not make the same mistakes again, and that if they could start over again they would be able to overcome the end and gain the final victory, he already knew the final outcome.

"So, Aponya, what does my future look like to you at this moment?"

"...is the death of the dawn..."

Alicia retracted her gaze: "Yes... It seems that you have done the same thing. You fought for me... for us, for a future that did not belong to us, and showed us the height you once reached... The final plan of the Stigmata Project was actually inferred based on the data of your last battle."

“The first bird did not have wings, but it had a heart that tried to fly to the sky. So it kept trying to flap its wings and fly to the sky. Even if it finally fell to the ground, it allowed other birds to see the sky and develop a yearning for the sky. That is why later birds kept trying on this basis, flying higher each time, until finally they were able to hover in the sky.”

"I used to think so too. I regret that I will not be able to see the birth of a Herrscher like me in the future. I regret that I will not be able to see civilization flourish again. But I know that I will return, and my arrows, my flowers, and my love will be woven into new seeds, fall on the withered earth, and after years of watering, they will eventually bloom into the eternal and flawless flower of humanity..."

"This time, I will make the same choice as before, but I will not have any regrets, because I will leave with my lover. We will fall from the sky together and weave the future of civilization together."

"If our meeting is due to your yearning for my story, and if everything ends up being irreversible, then let everything begin with our meeting and end with our departure, and let it end here."

Feng was slightly stunned, then nodded gently and said: "Of course, this is what I promised you from the beginning. This time, I will not leave you alone, we will face it together."

Yi Xin, who was standing by, listened to the whole thing but looked confused and had no idea what the two adults were talking about.

Alicia smiled, then turned her gaze to the mural and said, "By the way, was this mural painted by Xiao Diaoxie? It looks like it took a lot of effort..."

"After all, Tune is the city's emcee. She is in charge of all the celebrations in Foros." Yi Xin saw that he had something to say again and immediately said, "She really likes the story of Lucifer. She is very serious every time she organizes the Dawn celebrations."

"Oh~ I like it very much~" Alicia looked at Feng mischievously.

But Feng was thinking about the ability of the Tuned Vita. According to Idealism's records and his own feelings about the other little Vitas who were watching him, the Tuned Vita should be the strongest among the seven little Vitas, otherwise it wouldn't be like this...

"Is she difficult to talk to?" Feng suddenly asked.

"Tiaoxie? How could that be? She's always been easy to talk to." Yixin touched her head and said, not quite understanding, "Tiaoxie has always been responsive to everyone's requests in Foros. For her, perhaps there is nothing more wonderful than receiving compliments and thanks from others every day."

"Well, sounds like a good kid." Alicia nodded, then looked at Feng, "Feng, have you...thought of anything?"

Feng sighed softly and said, "... Shaniyat."

Alicia was stunned for a moment.

"For Tuning, maybe she feels that she is the emcee of the city, in charge of the most sacred cause of Foros, and she should do her best..." Feng turned his eyes to the mural, "Forget it, just take it as my casual remark."

Yixin was tainted with the sin of rage because of her justice and enthusiasm, and Tuohe was tainted with the sin of arrogance because of her responsibility and willingness to respond to requests...

This does make sense, regarding the seven sins and ten plagues of Foros... However, Feng became curious at this time, which of the seven deadly sins did the other five little Vitas each fall into?

Alicia looked at Feng with empty eyes and said, "Feng, is there something you didn't tell me?"

"Well... it's just a guess at the moment, maybe it's not time to reveal it yet." Feng said, "But..."

Before he finished speaking, other people in Foros suddenly shouted in fear: "What's going on? Monsters... Why did monsters appear in Foros!"

“Not good!” Yixin heard someone calling for help and wanted to save them, but then he realized that the other Vitas were watching from the dark and would also take action, and he was now the tour guide for the two people in front of him…

"Let's go and take a look together." Feng said.

Yi Xin nodded and immediately ran in the direction where the cry for help came from.

"So, what exactly is this place in Foros..." Alicia frowned.

"The scheduled day of doom is approaching soon." Feng said concisely.

somewhere.

"Why? You must have seen the same thing countless times in the past tens of thousands of years, right? Do you still care about these things?" Mobius raised his eyebrows and looked at the three-dimensional image of Da Vita beside him and said, "If Xi'er hadn't told me, I'm afraid no one would have thought that you could create a civilization on the edge of the solar system - although you did it with the help of Yu Feng's authority."

"...Even without his authority, Suo could still do it." Vita lowered her eyes, "But, in the end, she was still tricked by Admiral."

Mobius curled his lips and immediately observed the image in front of him with great interest. According to Vita, the civilization on this asteroid at the edge of the solar system will once again face destruction... Hmm? Wait, what are those men and women holding hands?

The corner of Mebius's eye twitched, and she looked at Vita, who shrugged and said, "After all, even 'Su' has to be afraid of his true form, so it's easy to understand that he can compete with 'Cocoon' and project his own projection onto Foros, isn't it?"

Mebius: "..."

So why did an extra Alicia appear? !

Good job, Alicia, you are going to do this kind of thing in the name of locking Yufeng up to prevent him from doing anything wrong, right?

Vita glanced at Mebius, and seeing that he was not paying attention to her at the moment, she shifted her gaze to the little Vita who appeared in the image.

Her little trick this time was planned for a long time. Then the actions of Xier and Mebius covered up her little trick and attracted Feng's attention, making Feng's eyes fall on Foros.

Yes, she had seen the destruction of Foros countless times, and she had also seen the deaths of little Vita countless times...

Suo had long been preparing to rebuild the Frausha civilization on the edge of the solar system. The deal that Admiral made with her was only to allow her to achieve the goal of rebuilding civilization more quickly, and to take this opportunity to try to seize Feng's authority. However, she probably didn't expect that she would be directly tricked by Admiral.

Rebuilding civilization with the help of Feng's authority can indeed better adapt to the original world, but everything has a price. Feng's power is not borrowed casually. After all, it is the end. The civilization created with the help of the authority of the end will eventually face the judgment of the end.

In order to avoid the final judgment, Suo had to accept her own proposal to use the authority of Maple that Admiral traded with her, plus the slices of Maple that she collected in the Quantum Sea, and then merge her own power, and finally created seven little Vitas.

This did slow down the destruction of civilization, but the appearance of little Vita further promoted the extension of the roots of idealism, and eventually Foros was caught in a situation where Sa and idealism were fighting for control.

To sum it up in one sentence, Suo lost so much money from that transaction fifty thousand years ago that he almost lost all his money.

The base that was built with great difficulty was betrayed by Admire. In desperation, Suo tried to completely destroy the seven little Vitas in order to regain control of Foros, because they were the foundation for idealism to control the Foros civilization.

So... in order to put an end to all this, Vita decided to bring down the guy who could judge everything. It didn't matter who Flos ended up with, but only Feng could completely cut off all the reincarnations and allow little Vita... and her sisters to truly have a future.

Chapter 176: Chaos of Anti-Entropy

Just as Feng and Alicia were having a wonderful adventure at the edge of the solar system, Saint Freya was in a state of fighting against the Herrscher, and the entire area near Saint Freya was under martial law, the situation at the Anti-Entropy Headquarters began to seem a little abstract.

Einstein and Tesla sat in their chairs, watching the congressman in front of them spitting in front of them: "...The Valkyrie of Destiny went to Saint Freya as soon as the Saint Freya chaos broke out. What does this mean? It is a provocation to you Anti-Entropy! Everyone knows that Saint Freya is now an ally of Anti-Entropy, and the Far East is now the territory of Anti-Entropy. What does Destiny mean by this?"

Tesla and Einstein looked at each other. Did you consider Theresa as an ally now? Did you consider her as an ally when you were pressing Theresa to compromise with you?

They all knew that this member of parliament and the Congress he represented were probably really panicking at this moment. If it weren't for the fact that Schicksal sent out the Valkyrie troops to rush to the rescue as soon as Saint Freya's collapse broke out, they would most likely have regarded Theresa's threat as a joke and believed that Theresa would not return to Schicksal.

Now, Destiny has dispatched its top Valkyrie troops. According to the intelligence collected by Anti-Entropy, Yulandel has confirmed that they have been dispatched, and in the area around Saint Freya, the Valkyrie troops supported by Destiny are actively helping to evacuate the people and carry out disaster relief under the command of Rita.

It seems as if Saint Freya has not broken with the Mandate at all and is still the Far Eastern branch of the Mandate.

It was not until this time that the congressmen really believed what Theresa said was true, but what was the point of thinking about it now? Einstein and Tesla were now basically certain that after the Herrscher incident was over, the return of Saint Freya led by Theresa to Destiny was almost certain.

"Why did this happen? I think Congressman Brandon and the Congress behind you should know clearly, right?" Einstein said expressionlessly. "From the beginning, our leader has repeatedly emphasized that Saint Freya is our ally, but are you really considering Saint Freya as an ally of Anti-Entropy? Or to be more practical, in your minds, Saint Freya should never be an ally, but a subordinate organization that should be under the jurisdiction and control of Anti-Entropy."

Einstein also felt quite powerless about the current situation. When did the anti-entropy that Joyce had established with his lofty aspirations change? When did the anti-entropy that was once full of ideals decay before its ideals were fulfilled?

Einstein thought about this for a long time, and everything turned into a sigh in the end.

Perhaps she knew the answer from the beginning.

Anti-Entropy's foundation is too poor. Compared to Destiny, which owns several continents and has thousands of years of history, Anti-Entropy's existence time is not even that of a toddler. So in order to catch up with Destiny, Anti-Entropy has to take many measures. Using mass-produced Titans to replace Valkyries is one aspect, and the Executor System is another.

However, when they established the executor system in order to expand the anti-entropy's combat power and gain more support, they had already laid the seeds for the current situation.

But... they had no choice at the time. The newly born Anti-Entropy was too fragile. Otto was always eyeing Anti-Entropy on the other side of the ocean, and Walter was still seizing the time to learn all kinds of knowledge in order to fully understand the power of the Ruler of Reason...

Einstein's words made the congressman choke. This matter should indeed be regarded as the fault of Congress, but would they admit it? Could they admit it?

No, no matter how wrong it is, it cannot be Congress’s fault.

"Saint Freya is an ally of Anti-Entropy, and allies should be mutually beneficial. We have provided them with assistance, so what's wrong with them taking a step back?" The congressman said stubbornly, "Theresa Apokalis is simply unreasonable in this regard. Can't we understand a little bit about Saint Freya's affairs when we provide money and materials? The essence of negotiation is mutual compromise and concession. Compared with the initial request, we are willing to make concessions, but what about Theresa Apokalis? She is not willing to compromise at all... What kind of ally is this?"

What a good answer! "Putting aside the facts, is Theresa never wrong?" Einstein looked at the congressman in front of her who was still being stubborn and she felt like she was about to laugh out of anger.

Compromise? Concession?

How about you take another look at the relationship between Anti-Entropy and Saint Freya to see if it is an equal relationship?

Mutual benefit between allies. Now the skeletons of the Void Tree are mixed with Honkai and are rampant everywhere. Are the Valkyries of Saint Freya dispatched to deal with them? Are Theresa and Wendy handling the difficult Honkai beasts?

What? Do you think this is what Theresa should do?

Even though they have been stuck with supplies and funds, they have not yet turned against Anti-Entropy. That's already a sign of their good temper. If someone else came over, they would have fallen out on the first day.

Seeing the mocking expressions on Einstein and Tesla's faces, the congressman blushed. It was not like they had not thought about attacking Saint Freya from both the material and financial aspects, but Saint Freya's board member named Eden ignored them and never reduced the funds that should have been given, making it possible for Saint Freya to operate without their funds.

As for threatening Eden...

As soon as the information about hiring a killer was posted, the entire family of the congressman who was responsible for spreading the news was killed, not even a single mouse in the house was left alive...

As for freezing Eden’s funds… most of their funds were in Europe, so they just froze them in America and no one cared. The congressman who was responsible for freezing the funds encountered an “accident” not long after. Moreover, in terms of attitude towards Eden, there were congressmen in Congress who strongly opposed starting with Eden, and they openly argued with other congressmen for this.

After all this, even the dumbest person could see that the backers behind Eden were too powerful to handle.

After a long while, the councillor said, "The Herrscher appeared in Saint Freya. This matter has nothing to do with Destiny. Last time the Coral Island under Destiny's jurisdiction had a Honkai Impact, Anti-Entropy did not participate in the rescue. Destiny simply broke the rules this time. Aren't they just trying to snatch the Herrscher's core from the newly born Herrscher? Can we just sit back and do nothing?"

Einstein looked at the councillor sideways. Anti-Entropy didn't interfere in the previous Coral Island incident. Did Anti-Entropy follow the so-called rules? That was because the collapse was originally under the control of Destiny, and with the assistance of the World Serpent, it made no difference whether Anti-Entropy was there or not.

"Rules... who made the rules?" Tesla snorted. "If you want to bring up the treaty signed between Anti-Entropy and Destiny decades ago, then you should also know that the treaty stipulates that under normal circumstances, Destiny and Anti-Entropy will not directly send troops to each other's territories. So, let me ask you, is the Far East a territory under Anti-Entropy's jurisdiction?"

“Why not…”

As soon as the congressman spoke up, he saw Tesla looking at him with a half-smile, and he knew he had fallen into a trap. It was said before that Saint Freya was an ally of Anti-Entropy. Before Saint Freya became independent, it was the Far East branch of Mandate. Even if Anti-Entropy also had executors in the Far East, the entire Far East was not really a jurisdiction under Anti-Entropy.

Therefore, even according to the international convention previously signed by Destiny and Anti-Entropy, there is nothing wrong with Destiny's action this time.

Saint Freya only said that it would be independent from Anti-Entropy, but didn't say that it would be merged into Anti-Entropy? The international convention also stipulates that neither Mandate of Heaven nor Anti-Entropy can send troops to interfere with neutral countries. So is Saint Freya a neutral country or organization? No, it's not.

According to the rules, Tianming's action this time really stands out as reasonable and logical.

"This...you...you..." The congressman pointed at Einstein and Tesla and couldn't say a word for a long time.

If the Anti-Entropy Leader, the only one in Anti-Entropy who can fight the Herrscher head-on, was not here, he would not have been arranged by Congress to come here and be ridiculed.

Regarding the collapse that Saint Freya encountered, the Congress had a very unified opinion, which was to seize the time to maximize the benefits that Congress could obtain. As for Saint Freya, if they wanted to return to the destiny, then Congress would have to do everything possible to collect some interest or something. In addition, the Herrscher Core of the newly born Herrscher must be obtained.

"So you're just going to sit back and watch Heaven's Mandate continue to grow stronger?" The congressman finally found what he could say, and said angrily, "Look at you guys, you said you could confront Heaven's Mandate, but what's the result? How many Herrscher Cores did Heaven's Mandate have? Huh? You can't take back the Gems of Desire, and you gave away the only Gems of Conquest. What on earth have you done? Look at Heaven's Mandate, how many Herrscher Cores do they have? What do you have? Our Congress has taken the trouble to give you financial support and to negotiate for you internationally, and this is how you repay us?"

"Ha..." Einstein just sneered and said nothing.

Tesla, who was standing by, had no intention of accommodating the councillor at all: "You still dare to talk about conquering gems? You dare to say you didn't know about the great collapse caused by Cocolia in Changkong City? If it wasn't her who caused the collapse, would Mei go to Saint Freya? Isn't she still attending classes at Qianyu Academy?"

"Humph, that sounds good, but do you have any evidence?" The congressman said without changing his expression. "That was clearly a mess that you anti-entropy executors created yourself. What does it have to do with our Congress? Don't slander me."

"You..." Tesla's eyes twitched. The person in front of her once again refreshed her understanding of the shamelessness of those people in Congress.
