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

Yaezakura immediately placed her hand on the hilt of the knife at her waist: "Midrash?"

Qiyana also looked over vigilantly. It was a green-haired girl wearing a deep purple suit. She raised her hands to indicate that she was not carrying any weapons and had no malicious intentions: "Don't worry, don't worry, I have no malicious intentions, nor Come to fight."

"Midrash? The Herrscher in the legend?" Bronya's voice was a little puzzled. "It is said that the first Herrscher, the Herrscher of Reason, was not the first Herrscher born. In some legends of the Mandate of Heaven, the first Herrscher should be the Herrscher of Corrosion, the Herrscher of Corrosion. She brought the horrible Black Death to Europe at that time, and then wandered around the Far East and Shenzhou, causing chaos everywhere, causing a global plague pandemic. In the end, she was killed by the Red Kite Immortal of Shenzhou and another ancestor of the Shaniyat family, Alicia Shaniyat. However, this should all be just a legend. Neither the Mandate of Heaven nor Anti-Entropy has any accurate data to record this incident... If she really exists, then her ability should be to bring plague."

"If it's a plague, there is indeed a similar legend in the Far East." Mei also said, "But it's a little different from what Bronya said. In our legend, there was a god of plague who was killed by the giant fox demon and cat demon guarding the Far East."

What is going on here? Could it be that the ancestor of the Shanyat family was a fox, and the Red Kite Immortal was a cat demon? What is this? Kiana was a little confused, and she seemed to have heard the name Midrash mentioned by a certain wicked Stigma Will, but he didn't say anything more specific.

All we know is that the wicked fellow did admit that Midrash was a law-maker.

She suddenly felt guilty. If the legend was true, then that Lady Alicia really existed? And maybe she was still alive. She had said before that she was Alicia...

Lord Alicia shouldn't care about it... Speaking of which, isn't it also the fault of some wicked stigmata who said he was Lucifer Shaniat? !

Kiana threw aside all the nonsense in her head and just looked at Midrash vigilantly, ready to fight at any time. The person in front of her might be a Herrscher. The great destruction caused by the Second Herrscher is still often mentioned. The Herrscher of Corrosion who caused the world plague five hundred years ago...

It must not be underestimated, even if it is just a legend, because even if it is a pseudo-hermeneutic, it is terrifying enough.

Midrash squinted his eyes and looked at Kiana, then looked at Yae Sakura and said with an inexplicable smile: "I still hope you will think about it carefully and don't forget why your sister died."

Yaezakura was silent.

"Fate is always the most ridiculous way to escape," Midrash said nonchalantly, "Who gave you life? Who put shackles on you? And who wove this ridiculous fate for you? You must have felt something about the things in the box, right? Have you never thought about taking revenge on the other you in this world who is so high above you?"

Yaezakura gritted her teeth.

Midrash smiled and shook his head, looking at Kiana, and said slowly: "And you... a descendant of the Kaslana family, what can you change?"

Then her smile became very strange: "Even if... you know the whole story just like him..."

As Midrash finished his words, the entire space began to distort.

"We have detected an abnormality in the Stigmata space due to an unknown reason! We cannot check your situation! Bronya will arrange for you to leave the Stigmata space immediately." Bronya's voice was full of solemnity. "Prepare for the connection and disconnection of the consciousness penetration device. 3, 2, 1... Disconnection failed?!"

"Kiana!" Mei and Himeko shouted at the same time.

After the familiar dizziness, Kiana found herself standing at the entrance of Yae Village again. Just like the ending she saw last time, thunder and phoenix cries were heard from the castle tower, and corpses of villagers were everywhere...

"The stigmata space is back to normal..." Bronya seemed relieved, "Stupid Kiyana, are you okay?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Kiana said, "It's just that the ending seems to have returned to the starting point."

With that, Kiana went to the place where she and Kallen had defeated Yae Sakura before. Seeing Kallen calling Yae Sakura's name sadly, Kiana knew that nothing had changed this time.

"The mission danger assessment level has increased. Bronya recommends terminating the mission immediately." Bronya said.

"No, Bronya, let me try again. At least this time, we know what happened." Kiana whispered, with an unquestionable firmness in her voice.

In the distance, a black-haired young man stood on a high mountain, gazing at the direction of the castle tower, and sighed softly: "Mastema, is this what you did?"

Sakura Color Samsara: The Third Samsara

"No, Bronya, prepare to disconnect Kiana's consciousness immediately." Ji Zi's voice sounded in the communication channel, "Even if it is the pseudo-Hershersman in the stigmata memory, it is a terrifying existence that once caused a world plague. It requires the dispatch of S-class Valkyries to deal with it. And from the situation just now, this Herrscher of Corrosion seems to still have strange powers in the stigmata space... Before, I could regard this as a test for you, Kiana, but now, the situation is different. I must ensure your safety!"

"But..." Kiana wanted to refute, but only Bronya's voice came into her ears:

"Bronya agrees with Teacher Jizi, idiot Qiyana, now is not the time to be competitive. Consciousness sneaks into the device, disconnect preparations, 3,2,1, , ..."

Suddenly, the communication channel seemed to be interfered by something. After a burst of noisy sound, there was no sound from Bronya's side.

"Bronya? Bronya?" Kiana tried to call her partner, but she got no response.

in the real world.

"Bronya, what's going on?!" Mei panicked, "Why can't I disconnect again?"

"The reason is unknown..." Bronya's forehead began to sweat. Her fingers moved quickly on the screen. "Heavy-Armored Bunny is analyzing the reason... Wait, this is... a data that does not belong to the stigma behind the principal has been connected to the consciousness infiltration device. The source of this data is the stupid Kiana?"

"What does this mean?" Ji Zi asked.

Bronya thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Kiana and the principal both have the blood of the Kaslana family. Their stigmata may have resonated when the Herrscher of Corrosion interfered with space. In other words, now... all we can do is wait for the results."

"Kiana..." Mei looked at Kiana lying in the device with some concern, "If the connection is forcibly interrupted, is there any way to bring Kiana back?"

"In that case, there will be only one result. Kiana's consciousness will remain in the principal's stigmata space forever." Bronya said, "Sister Mei, Bronya knows that you are worried about stupid Kiana, but... there is really no other way for us except to wait."

Mei bit her lip. If she had known this earlier, she would not have agreed to let Kiana take this risk. She would rather be the one facing the crisis now.

"It's okay, Mei, let's just trust Kiana now. Although Kiana is always unreliable, do you remember when we met?" Bronya comforted Mei, "Kiana won't be defeated so easily."

Mei heard this and recalled her first encounter with Kiana and the escape from Changkong City...

"So what if it's a Herrscher? Who says people can't like a Herrscher? I really, really like Mei!"

Mei nodded gently: "Yes, I believe Kiana."

In the holy scar space.

Kiana had to give up trying to contact Bronya after several failed attempts. She began to think about the current situation. The change happened after Midrash met her. What did Midrash say? Anyway, he seemed to be looking forward to whether she could change the original ending. In other words, it was still like playing a game, except that she had to get a happy ending to end the game.

"Come on, give it a try!" Kiana encouraged herself in her heart.

Kiana met Yae Sakura according to her original memory, and then discovered Kallen. At this time, she noticed the black box in Kallen's hand, remembered its appearance, and then helped Yae Sakura collect herbs.

While waiting for Yae Sakura to brew the herbs, Kiana entered Yae Sakura's house again and looked at the layout of her house.

According to the last memory, Yae Sakura said that she had a younger sister who passed away a few years ago, but looking at the layout of the house, if what Yae Sakura said is true, it seems that she has not walked out in the past few years. The shadow of her sister's death, everything is arranged as if there is another person in this room, as if Yae Sakura is comforting herself with this, her sister has not passed away, she just traveled far away.

Kiana picked up the small hand bell on the table. If this was true, then Yae Sakura... must be very sad, right? She kept trying to deceive herself that her sister was still alive, but she insisted on visiting her sister's grave. When she faced her sister's tombstone, she...

The words of the Midrash at that time echo again:

"Who gave you life? Who put shackles on you? And who wove this ridiculous fate for you? You yourself must have felt something about the things in that box, right? Have you never thought about taking revenge on the other you in this world who is so high above you?"

The life given, the shackles put on you...and the so-called destiny and the other you in the world?

What the hell is going on? Is there another Yae Sakura that she didn't see? I heard that there seems to be a tradition called Shadow Warrior in the Far East. Mei mentioned it to her once, and that wicked guy also mentioned it once... It seems that Shadow Warrior is a profession that specializes in taking bullets for legitimate activities?

She couldn't remember the general idea, and she didn't care about it normally! Wouldn't it be better to eat a few more bowls of rice?

"If only that guy were still here..." Kiana murmured.

After saying that, Kiana came back to her senses and shook her head. Now was not the time to think about whether someone could come to help her, because no matter how much she thought about it, that guy would not stand in front of her out of thin air. To be honest, she had only heard his voice and guessed that he should be a man. Apart from that, she knew nothing.

She still remembers the guy's ridicule towards her:

"Hey, I can only hear your voice, but you can see what's going on outside. So were you peeking at me while I was taking a shower?"

"Let's not talk about what's so good about your figure. What's the point of me looking at this?"

That thing sounded very honest when he said this, so honest that Kiana wanted to beat him up but didn't know where he was.

Why doesn't she have a good figure?! She's obviously in great shape, right?!

Kiana patted her head and thought about that evil smoking stigma will again. Really, every time it comes to this moment, it is easy to think of that worthless bastard. It would be better to think about how to get into Mei's bed tonight...

Just as Kiana was thinking, Kallen woke up. Seeing that Kallen was awake, Kiana repeated what she had said to Kallen before. After gaining Kallen's initial trust, Kiana chose to go straight to the point and asked a question that concerned her: "Lord Kallen, what exactly is that black box you have been carrying? Why are all three major families looking for you for this?"

Karen was stunned for a moment, then shook her head with a bitter smile and said, "Yeah... Most people probably don't know what this is. Even if I tell them, I'm afraid no one will believe it... The only people who know what this is, besides me, should be Eleanor, Otto, and Uncle Nicholas..."

"I'm willing to believe you!" Kiana said firmly.

Karen pursed her lips upon hearing this, revealing a somewhat tired smile. She said, "That look... I didn't expect that at this point, there would still be someone in the Kaslana family willing to believe me... Then I'll tell you, Kiana, that box contains one of the sources of the Black Death that is rampant in Europe. I don't know who created this thing. I only saw Uncle Nicholas give it to Otto and ask Otto to study it... I questioned Otto, and Otto only told me that this was something Eleanor brought out from the forbidden area of ​​the Shaniyat family. Tianming wanted to launch a second eastern expedition. They wanted to release the things in this box to Shenzhou, and for this they even used civilians for experiments... There was no time left for me to do more. All I could do was knock Otto unconscious and take the box away..."

What should I do if I suddenly feel a little sympathy for Bishop Otto?

Kallen looked up at the ceiling, lost in thought as she recalled the situation at that time and said, "I want to bring this box to the Red Kite Immortal. With her power, she can definitely destroy the things in the box, but... when I went to Taixu Mountain to visit the immortal, his students told me that the immortal had gone out and no one knew where he was, and that the soldiers of destiny were following closely. I had no choice but to go all the way east, and finally arrived here... I came here because I heard that there was a fox demon with unpredictable strength guarding the far east, and I thought, if the legend is true, then she might be able to help me."

Kiana also fell into thought after hearing this.

She remembered that Bronya said that the Red Kite Sage and Lady Alicia jointly killed Midrash, and Mei said that the fox demon and the cat demon killed a plague god together. If what Kallen said was true, then should Midrash and the plague god be considered separately? What the fox demon killed was actually the thing in the black box?

After all, the Red Kite Immortal did exist in the archives of destiny, but she ascended to heaven later, and Lady Alicia's words were completely a legend, and Far East... Kiana decisively chose to believe Mei!

If Mei says there is, then there is!

So after some thinking, Kiana came up with a solution. First, she had to untie Yae Sakura's knot. She might not be able to do it, but Kallen should be able to do it. Then there was the thing in the black box. Anyway, there was no record of this thing later. If there was, it was because she didn't listen to the class. Now there was no other way out. Just think of it as being destroyed by the fox demon, so...

A sudden idea flashed in Kiana's mind.

Fox demon? Wasn't the Honkai beast that Yae Sakura turned into a giant fox demon? Midrash also mentioned another her in the world, which means that Yae Sakura is likely to know the real giant fox demon? !

It seems to make sense. As expected, I am really smart!

Just as Kiana was feeling proud of her own reasoning, the scene suddenly began to change, and she was standing in front of the entrance of Yae Village at night.

Kiana: "?"

This... Yaezakura hadn't come in to talk to Kallen just now, right? Could it be that the conditions for skipping the plot had been met, so the plot was skipped directly?

Then she immediately noticed Yaesakura who left the village alone. Without thinking too much, Kiana ran towards Yaesakura's village and ran all the way to Yaesakura's house. When she went in, she saw Karin was there, but Karin was not asleep. Instead, she was standing at the door looking outside with some worry.

"Lady Kallen!" Kiana shouted hurriedly.

"Kiana? Why are you here?" Kallen asked in surprise.

Kiana took Kallen's hand and ran out: "There's no time to explain. I just saw Yae Sakura walking out of the village alone."

"Eh?" Kallen was stunned for a moment, then whispered thoughtfully, "Should... she go to see Rin? Sakura is indeed a little strange recently..."

Kallen, who reacted quickly, even ran faster than Kiana.

When the two arrived at the cemetery outside the village, Yae Sakura was confronting Midrash, and Midrash was trying to seduce Yae Sakura.

"Sakura!" Kallen called out Yae Sakura's name first, then stood beside her and looked at Midrash warily, "What is this...?"

Midrash seemed a little surprised, and then glanced at Kiana who was following behind Kallen, then a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she bowed gracefully: "It seems that tonight does not belong to you and me alone, then, let me leave first, but I still hope you can consider my suggestion, Yaezakura."

After saying this, she merged into the shadows like a shadow, leaving no trace.

"Sakura, who is she?" Kallen looked at Yae Sakura who had let down her guard with some confusion and said, "I just seemed to hear her say something about another you in the world? Is it the one in the castle tower?"

"Eh? Lady Kallen, do you know another Yae Sakura?" Kiana asked with some surprise.

"No... not really... Kiana, remember the fox demon guarding here that I told you about? She... looks almost exactly like Sakura, except for the pair of fox ears." Kallen said hesitantly, "I've already given her the box. I believe she can handle it."

Yaezakura just looked at Kallen in silence.

Kallen noticed that Yae Sakura looked strange. She stepped forward, held Yae Sakura's hands and said, "Sakura, I don't know what that person said to you. I only know that you must have hidden something from me, and that thing must have made you very sad. Sakura, I said that I would protect you, I would fight with you, and go on with you, so...if there is anything unhappy, I hope you can tell me, we can bear it together...isn't it?"

Yaezakura's eyes moved. She looked at Kallen's sincere eyes for a long time before she said, "Kallen, it's not that I want to hide it from you, but... I'm just afraid that you will leave me because of this."

"How could that be?" Kallen said firmly, "We have been together for almost a year. Don't I know what kind of girl you are? If that's the case, why would I leave you? It was you who saved me and took me in when I had nowhere else to go."

Yaezakura was silent for a moment, then said: "Kallen, I... am not actually a normal human being."

"Huh?" Kallen and Kiana were both stunned.

"My sister Rin and I were both created by the lady in the castle tower who actually has the name 'Sakura'. She called us experimental subjects for the connection between the Stigmata Project and the Fusion Warrior Project. All the people in Yae Village are just her experimental subjects. From the moment we were born, we had to fight against those monsters in order to stimulate the power of the stigmata behind us... The Honkai beasts that appear from time to time outside the village are actually released by that lady."

"How could she..." Kallen's pupils shrank, "Why would she do this?"

"I don't know." Yaezakura shook her head sadly. "My sister Rin, a few years ago, lost control of the stigma on her back and turned into a monster. I killed her with my own hands..."

Kiana and Kallen's pupils trembled.

"Before that, I killed many people like Rin who turned into monsters because of the loss of control of the stigma, but... I never thought that even my sister would die in my hands." Yaezakura's voice was a little trembling, "The villagers cheered for my victory. They still say that Rin overestimated her own abilities, but... Rin's original intention of becoming like that was to protect them! Why... why did it happen like this?"

Kallen and Kiana both fell silent.

"Just like Midrash said, this village was a mistake from the beginning." Yaezakura continued, "I can't defeat that lady. Her power is beyond your imagination. I've seen the sword she used to kill the giant beast. It's something I can never achieve, the thunder of God... Midrash gave me another way, a way to cut off all the fate. She asked me to go to the castle tower, steal the box, release it in the village, and bury all the sins."

"Maybe... that lady is indeed wrong, but the villagers of this village... are innocent." Karen said somewhat dryly. Are they really innocent? She didn't know, she could only say this.

"But I lost my only relative because of them!" Yaezakura said, "And I still have to be here, fulfilling my duties as a shrine maiden to protect them day after day..."

"But you still have me now, don't you, Ying?" Kallen said, "No matter what happens next, I will face it with you. I will live with you. At worst, we can leave this village and live in Shenzhou together."

"Karen..."

Kiana silently looked at Kallen and Yae Sakura hugging each other under the moon, and thought, this should be a happy ending, right?

Then the world around her began to distort, and Kiana found herself in a forest.

In front of her were Yaesakura and Kallen, who looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Opposite them was a girl wearing a fox mask and fox ears. Her voice was exactly the same as Yaesakura's, except that it was even colder: "Kaslana family, I don't care why you came here, and I don't care what happened between you and Yaesakura, but she belongs to Yaesakura."

"Everyone has the right to control their own life!" said Karen.

"That's true, but I don't care." said the fox demon.
