"Yu Feng..." She whispered the boy's name, recalling the boy who shouldered all the sins of the world alone. Thinking of his lonely figure leaving in the end, Mebius clenched his hands. At least this time, he had to survive.
He never owed the world anything, but the world owed him too much.
If I remember correctly, his earliest identity was a survivor rescued by Alicia in an incident caused by Honkai energy. Thinking of this, Mebius looked at his assistant: "Klein, where is Alicia?"
Forgive her for not remembering which incident caused by the collapse Zhu Yufeng was the survivor of. After all, she didn't know Zhu Yufeng at that time. However, if it was the detailed data of his body afterwards, she would know it clearly.
She only vaguely remembered that Zhu Yufeng was discovered before the third collapse, and now it is about the same time period, so as long as she follows Alicia, she will be able to find him.
"Alicia?" Klein looked at his own doctor and said speechlessly, "Doctor, wasn't Alicia just transferred to participate in the investigation of a small-scale collapse a few days ago? The investigation results have been sent in." And don't you hate her very much?
"Let me see it." Mebius said. Klein flipped through the reports that Mebius had thrown away and found the one that Mebius had glanced at and thrown away: "Here it is."
Mebius took it eagerly, his eyes falling on the row of survivors: "One survivor, name: Zhu Yufeng."
"Klein, say hello to those old guys. I want to go meet this survivor."
Klein thought that Mebius had set his sights on a new test subject. She said, "But even if he is the only survivor, there is a possibility that his resistance to Honkai energy is higher than that of ordinary people. If we want him to assist in the experiment, we still need his consent, right?"
"He will agree." Mobius said firmly, "Klein, don't waste time, I want to see him as soon as possible." Regardless of whether Zhu Yufeng was reborn or not, Mobius was sure that he would agree to it. Moreover, Mobius did not think that rebirth would only happen to him, and there might be others who were also reborn. He must be taken down before other people who might be reborn can make a move, especially Alicia.
She more or less knew that the reason Zhu Yufeng initially joined the Fire Moth was for Alicia, but it didn't matter. As long as the hoe was used well, there was no wall that could not be dug down. Lilith was a good example!
At the same time, at dusk on the street.
"Oh, Sister Nia, do you really have no idea at all? Now is a good opportunity to save Brother Yufeng!" Padu looked at Abonya with a crazy look on his face.
Paduo, who didn't think much, ran to the welfare home where Abonya was as soon as she realized she was reborn, wanting to know if Abonya was also reborn, and then the other party gave a positive answer. Paduo just wanted to pull Zhu Yufeng out of the mud pit of fighting against the collapse, and then the two of them lived an ordinary life without caring about anything.
"Pado, don't worry. We will meet each other eventually." Aponiya said softly, "It's not the right time to meet him now."
"Aponia, get out here!" A hoarse voice came from outside the door. If Paddy still had a tail, the hair on her tail would definitely stand up.
"Jie Jie Jie... Brother Jie?" Padu came back to her senses from the shock, "Sister Nia, have you known Brother Jie so long?" Aponia shook her head. She knew Qianjie after the Fifth Herrscher incident, that is, after Qianjie tore the Fifth Herrscher apart with his bare hands. Moreover, when she knew Qianjie, he was not yelling outside like he is now. Although the Fire Moths blocked all the news about Honkai, Aponia could still speculate that the Fifth Herrscher has not appeared yet, because Qianjie has not torn the Fifth Herrscher apart and came to the welfare home again. "In other words, Qianjie, are you also reborn?" Aponia thought to herself, "Then, Alicia, you must have been reborn too, right?"
She still remembered the dejected look on Alicia's face during the last banquet, and also remembered Zhu Yufeng's answer when she asked him why he didn't go to the appointment. "There's nothing to see. The relationship between her and me...is not that close." The boy who had been chasing after Alicia finally parted ways with her.
Aponia came to the door of the welfare home and saw Qianjie. Qianjie said directly: "Aponia, do you remember where the nearest base of the Fire Moth is?" Qianjie didn't think too much. His first thought after rebirth was to beat Zhu Yufeng up, preferably to make him disabled so that he couldn't join the Fire Moth. However, he didn't know the way at all and didn't know how to get to the Fire Moth. Then he came all the way to find Aponia. He thought that this woman Aponia would probably be reborn too. If Aponia didn't reborn, he would go back the same way and wait for the fifth Herrscher to appear and then tear his hands apart and wait for the Fire Moth to come.
"Qianjie, that is his destiny. Even if you go to the Fire Moth now, you cannot change his fate of becoming a fusion warrior and Satan." Aponia said calmly.
Paduo was standing next to her and was confused. Sister Nia, are you playing me here? So you know where the Fire Moth is. Paduo rolled her eyes. It seems that Sister Nia probably has no idea to rescue Brother Yufeng. Then she has another way, Sister Weierwei! Sister Weierwei must know where the Fire Moth is. She just needs to find Sister Weierwei.
"Fuck fate!" Qianjie cursed. "Your so-called fate is to let Feng die alone on the moon? To let him never have a chance to sleep well again? F***! Aponiya, don't forget that it was you who almost killed Feng at the hands of those scum!"
"That's my sin." Aponia sighed softly. In the 12th Herrscher incident, Zhu Yufeng arrived at Ling's side before anyone else. In the process of protecting Ling, the soldiers used Honkai energy interference bombs on him, causing the many different super-mutation factors in Zhu Yufeng's body to repel each other.
He never fought back, and the result was that he almost died at the hands of the human he had always protected, and died under her commandments. The awakening of the twelfth Herrscher was also related to him.
"Aponya, guess what, can I crush you into ashes now?" Qianjie clenched his hands, looking like he was about to go berserk and attack.
Aponia looked at Qianjie calmly without answering. She knew better than anyone how crucial Zhu Yufeng was to the future of mankind, because he was the only person she had ever met who could challenge and change fate.
He must become a fusion warrior, become Satan. This is his will, unless Qianjie kills him, Zhu Yufeng will still go on the operating table to become a fusion warrior.
She couldn't change his ending, but... she could change the process. At the very least, she wouldn't let him fight against fate alone.
"Hey, hey, hey, Brother Jie, calm down. We still have other ways to find Brother Yufeng!" Pado hurried out to smooth things over.
Qianjie then looked at Paduo: "You say!"
"We can look for Sister Wei Erwei, she must know, and she will appear in Dusk Street from time to time, we can wait for her here!" Paduo said. Brother Jie will be responsible for bringing Brother Yu Feng out, and she will take Brother Yu Feng with her to live as a thief, a win-win situation, right?
"That woman?" Qianjie thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll let you go this time, Aponya, next time..."
“Um…Brother Jie, have you ever thought about where you’ll be staying while you’re waiting for Sister Wei Erwei?”
Qianjie was silent.
"You can be a porter here like before. There are still vacant rooms here." Abonya said. Qianjie stared at Abonya fiercely, and then went to find the room he lived in in his previous life.
“Huh… Sister Nia, you really have to thank me for saving you this time.” Padu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, “Brother Jie is still so scary when he’s angry…”
Aponiya did not answer. She just looked up at the setting sun and said in her heart: "I can't save you from the quagmire of eternal damnation, but this time, Feng, I will not let you fall into it alone."
In the distance, Wei Liwei watched the whole process and said to herself: "It turns out that everyone has been reborn, which means that Alicia may also be reborn... Well, then don't I have to compete with Alicia for her?" On one side is her favorite person, and on the other side is her best friend. What should she do if she wants both?
Suddenly, her eyes were like a different person, and her temperament became evil: "Humph... so what, she didn't seize the opportunity before, that's her business, we are just standing on the same starting line now. What's more, if Yu Feng is also reborn, he and Alicia will be even less likely!" Unlike others, Wei Wei's rebirth also brought eight personalities with her, but her control over the appearance of personality is not so strong, and she often switches suddenly. The personality that appeared now is the "extreme evil" that was originally going to be sealed, all her pride. As for why it was not sealed, it was of course someone's reason, who convinced her to let the extreme evil appear.
Weiwei looked in another direction.
That was the entrance to Dusk Street. Surrounded by bodyguards, Eden walked towards the welfare home where Aponya was.
A noodle shop in the Far East.
Kevin and Su sat opposite each other. One had a sluggish face, the other squinted. Both were reborn, and both had the habits from before rebirth, especially Su. He was used to closing his eyes and would close them carelessly, but now that he was no longer a fusion warrior, he obviously couldn't see anything if he closed his eyes, so he had to settle for the next best thing and squint. Although his field of vision was reduced, at least he would not be unable to see anything. As for Kevin, he just had to keep this sluggish face as a hero, and when fighting against the late stage of Honkai... how could he laugh at those things?
Except for Zhu Yufeng, his situation is different.
He could laugh when he thought about the pain that person was suffering from as if his body was covered by lava all the time, but now he couldn't laugh anymore when he thought about the tragedy of restraint... Kevin always hated himself for not being strong enough to defeat Honkai as everyone hoped.
"Kevin, what are you going to do?" Su asked.
"When the third collapse happens, just like before, I will join the Fire Moth with Mei, and then... let him join my team. If possible, try to prevent him from meeting Alicia." Kevin said. Of course, he knew that Alicia liked Zhu Yufeng, but... he also knew that Zhu Yufeng's reason for fighting against the collapse was for Alicia. If Zhu Yufeng didn't like Alicia at the beginning, would his future suffering be lessened? But if Alicia was also reborn... I'm afraid she wouldn't let go easily.
Su was silent for a moment, then said, "Are you going to do nothing before the third great collapse occurs?"
"What can I do?" Kevin asked back, "You and I both know that the collapse occurs randomly, and the Herrscher is also born randomly in the great collapse. With our current abilities, we can't stop the collapse from happening at all."
"You're right." Su sighed softly.
Kevin looked down at the bowl that was empty and said, "Su, you didn't participate in our battle with the End, so you may not understand how we felt at that time... Feng stood there alone, and even after all his life was burned out, he didn't fall down. It wasn't until I promised him that humans would definitely defeat Honkai that he closed his eyes and his body slowly dissipated... Do you understand how I felt at that time?"
"I understand..." Su's narrowed eyes closed completely. He thought of the incident with the 12th Herrscher. Aponia said that it was her sin because she had given Zhu Yufeng a "commandment" not to harm the members of the Fire Moth, which led to the tragedy. But Su knew very well that Aponia's commandment was invalid for Zhu Yufeng. That is to say, at that time, the reason why Zhu Yufeng did not resist was not because of the commandment, but because of his own will.
Su didn't tell anyone about his discovery. He didn't want to make other people more sad and angry.
This is a truth that even the enlightened ones cannot let go of.
Both fell into silence.
A certain mansion.
Ying Zhenluo's bloodstains on her knife reported the completion of the mission and got the reward she wanted - the area suspected of collapse recently. She is now just a killer and has not joined the Fire Moth. In her previous life, she joined the Fire Moth after the failed assassination of Mei. Now Changkong City is safe and sound, and the third great collapse obviously did not happen.
She only cares about where that person is.
Now that everything has been reset, she will never let the tragedy of the 12th Herrscher happen again, for Ling, and for him. This time, she will join the Fire Moth in advance and fight alongside him.
"Feng, this time, please let me protect you..."
Chapter 3 Alicia: Why is Mobius here?
Zhu Yufeng felt something was wrong.
Has the frequency of Alicia appearing around him been too high these days? He can see her when he gets up in the morning for morning exercises, when he is training, and when he is running at night... Does she really have nothing to do?
By the way, he was simply crushed under the rubble and did not suffer any broken bones... but it is true that he was scratched by the debris and lost too much blood.
The direct result was that he was discharged from the hospital soon and entered the Fire Moth branch here for training.
The recent situation was very abnormal, because he thought that he and Alysia were not that close at this stage. No matter how enthusiastic and familiar Alysia was, it was impossible for her to be so close to a boy, right? He was not a born hanger-up like Kevin.
"Could it be... that Alicia was also reborn?"
Such a thought popped up in Zhu Yufeng's mind, but if that was the case, then it would be even more wrong.
In the later period of the fight against the collapse, he and Alicia had become strangers, and he did not even go when the Fourteen Heroes of the Fire Chaser were established. Yes, because of him, the top leaders of the Fire Chaser Moth approved the proposal to establish the Fourteen Heroes of the Fire Chaser. In the previous life, the predecessor of the Fourteen Heroes of the Fire Chaser was the thirteen fallen angels led by him. Originally, the top leaders decided that he would be the leader, but he pushed this position to Alicia, and Alicia pushed it to Kevin the next day... Back to the topic, if Alicia was a reborn person, why was she so enthusiastic about him?
Zhu Yufeng thought for a long time before he remembered the only invitation that Alicia had sent him before the final banquet. Although he had almost forgotten the details after reading the plot, he still knew the reason why Alicia did not send invitations to other heroes. Therefore, he regarded the reason why Alicia sent this invitation as a lack of trust in him, and felt that Alicia did not treat him like other heroes, which made him a little upset. In addition, his body had just recovered and he needed to make the final adjustments before the end, so he chose to let Kevin take this invitation to return it to Alicia, and Xue Meiyi told Alicia that he absolutely trusted Alicia and did not need this invitation, and then went to Mobius's laboratory to carry out the final stage of the [God Ascension Plan].
Could it be that... he misunderstood what Alicia meant?
"At that time, was she the only one of all people who wanted to make sure I went to the party?" Zhu Yufeng said to himself, and then denied this idea. This was impossible. How could Alicia like a single human individual?
But...if it's true...
Then his attitude towards Alicia during that period, and his final refusal to keep the date... must have really made her very sad, right?
Zhu Yufeng sat up from the bed, washed up briefly, and prepared to go for morning exercise. As soon as he opened the door and walked out of the dormitory, he saw Alicia who seemed to be passing by.
Alicia greeted him: "Hi~ Good morning, Feng, I slept a little late today and thought I wouldn't run into you, but I didn't expect you to get up a little late~"
"Ah... That's such a coincidence, Miss Alicia." Zhu Yufeng responded with a smile, but he kept muttering in his heart, is Alicia really interested in him? Or is this all just a coincidence?
Coincidentally, they had the same schedule, they both had the habit of exercising, and today he just thought about things for a while longer and Alicia just happened to get up late...
Is there such a coincidence?
No, his original schedule was not this. It was later adjusted according to Alicia's schedule. After his rebirth, he brought this schedule into the present... That's okay, then today might really be a coincidence.
So what have you been thinking about for all this time?
Zhu Yufeng, who had "figured it out", regarded all this as a coincidence and did not investigate further. However, he still kept a thought in his mind about the possibility that Alicia might have been reborn. After all... the current situation was somewhat different from the previous life. What he did not know was that Alicia was waiting for him to come out and then pretended to pass by.
When he was confused, Alicia also had doubts, that is, whether Zhu Yufeng was reborn. In her memory, when she first got along with him, whenever he saw her, his eyes would become brighter, but now... his reaction was really flat, just like... at that time.
If Zhu Yufeng is also reborn, then is there really hope for me?
She recalled that when she proposed to establish the Fourteen Fire-Chasing Heroes and let him be the leader, he simply pushed the position to her and was unwilling to even be the deputy leader.
He was clearly the leader of the Thirteen Fallen Angels, the strongest fusion warrior team of the Fire Moth... She often wondered if it was because of her that he refused to become the leader?
When Alicia was struggling, another person came to Zhu Yufeng, and the sound of her conversation with Zhu Yufeng brought Alicia back to her senses from the whirlpool of thoughts.
When she saw the green-haired woman, Alicia almost didn't recognize who she was, but she immediately realized that the woman who was talking to Zhu Yufeng was Mobius.
But why is Mebius here? She shouldn't be here.
Could it be... that she was also reborn?
Alicia decided to find a way to join the conversation first, and then follow up with what Mobius said.
"Because I am the only survivor of this small-scale collapse, I am suspected to have extraordinary resistance to collapse, so I hope to join your laboratory?" Zhu Yufeng frowned and briefly repeated the purpose of Mobius's explanation to him, "But, Dr. Mobius, why me?"
He does have an abnormally strong resistance to Honkai energy, but that is only relative to ordinary people. His resistance to Honkai energy is not as abnormal as Kevin's, and is not even as good as Kosmo who later joined the Fire Moth.
What he was curious about now was that Mebius did not come to him in his previous life. Although Mebius's reasons now made sense, he just felt something was wrong.
Mebius glanced at Alicia who was leaning over to join the conversation, and then she said, "It was the report Alicia submitted to me that aroused my curiosity about you."
Alicia was confused. What report did she submit? How come she didn't know?
Zhu Yufeng understood. So that's why. Then it wasn't so hard to understand why Alicia had been close to him these past few days. He just observed her and he understood.
Alicia quickly realized that Mebius was lying with his eyes open, and was also hinting to her that she was reborn just like herself.
She decided to follow what Mebius said: "Yeah, I didn't expect Dr. Mebius to act so quickly. It turns out that you care about me~"
"Who cares about you!" Mobius rolled his eyes and continued to lie to Zhu Yufeng, "Your report just caught my attention. I came here after analyzing the possibilities in detail." Detailed analysis refers to the reasons he spent a long time thinking about to fool Zhu Yufeng on the plane, as well as analyzing how he would choose to answer in various situations.
"It makes sense..." Zhu Yufeng whispered. Although everything made sense, the original problem was not solved. That is why the progress of things now is different from the previous life? The source of everything is Alicia's unusually enthusiastic attitude towards him...
As expected, the most likely possibility is that Alicia is also a reborn person. Does Alicia do this because she thinks her behavior in the previous life needs to be changed?
"What a waste of effort." He thought so. His approach was the most suitable for humans and the best way to fight against Honkai. No matter how much Alicia wanted him to feel the true love between humans this time, he would not change his determination.
In his previous life, he bloodily suppressed all the armed forces that opposed the Fire Moths, killing all the rebels regardless of age. It was also because of this that he ensured that the Fire Moths were the only voice against the collapse.
In the original world line, when the end came, only 30,000 humans survived, but in the previous life, he left behind a full 100,000 human elites who had been selected by him, and a total of 12 of the fourteen heroes survived to the future generations.
Therefore, he did not think he had done anything wrong.
This is Zhu Yufeng. This guy is essentially an extremely arrogant person. He is more obsessed than anyone else in fighting against the collapse and stubbornly believes that he is right.
He is always gentle to his friends, and never merciful to his enemies.
There is actually another fundamental reason for this, which is that he is not a person from this world, but a player who looks at the previous civilization through tinted glasses.
He met the 13 Fire Chasing Heroes who were more real than in the game, and even formed a deep friendship with Kevin and most of the other heroes, but... that was all. He only knew the members of his team outside of the game characters, and he had never communicated with anyone else.
Now, there is an opportunity before him to do better than in his previous life, how could he refuse?
"Then I'll leave it to you, Dr. Mobius." Zhu Yufeng stretched out his hand, and Mobius smiled victoriously and shook his hand back.
Now that she has obtained Zhu Yufeng's consent, the next procedures will be much easier. She will take Zhu Yufeng back to the Fire Moth headquarters for special training in conjunction with her experiment.
Of course, it would be better if his will to fight against Honkai could be less strong.
While Zhu Yufeng was away handling formalities with Klein, Alicia and Mebius had some time to spend alone together.
Alicia was the first to speak: "Mebius, you are also reborn, right?"
