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

“Woo… Yu Feng doesn’t think that all of us are perverts, does he?” Baiwei squatted on the ground and drew circles.

"What's the big deal?" The magician shrugged. "If Yu Feng finds out, he can just say it was done by Ji E. We just didn't react in time and didn't have time to stop it."

"Haha." Ji E sneered, "What? You dare not admit it, right? I just lay on the bed for a while, and then who took control and rolled around on it?"

"After all, compared with others, the time we spend with Yu Feng is probably only Mobius who can compete with us. Oh, no, because we have to supervise her exercise and make instant noodles for her, we should be the ones who spend the shortest time with Yu Feng." The conductor tried to make an excuse.

"Extreme evil is also a part of [Vilvi]. Our other personalities are more or less affected by extreme evil. Isn't it reasonable to do such a thing?" The magician continued to try to make trouble.

"Okay." Ji'e rolled his eyes. "When Yufeng asks me about this, I will just say that I did it all. Yufeng knows me anyway, so if I do something like this again, Yufeng won't say anything. But you guys..."

"Ahem, after all, this is what we do together."

"Now that you have done it, you need to be responsible for your actions."

"Yes."

"Ha ha……"

The scene turns back.

After Alicia, Ying and Zhu Yufeng arrived, the next one to arrive was Pado.

"Good morning, Phyllis, you're here earlier than I expected." Alicia waved to Pado.

Paduo still said with some trepidation: "After all, this is our first official mission... Before, we would just run away whenever we could..."

Then the first time I went to the battlefield to fight was to fight the End.

The next ones to come over were Kosmo and Desdobia. Kosmo said to Desdobia as he came over: "This is your first mission, you must be mentally prepared."

"I know, I know. I think you, Amo, are the most nervous one." Desdobia waved her hand and said.

Kosmo: "..."

(I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear it… After all, this is indeed the first time for you, and it’s not the first time for me to face such a situation that is very likely to happen.)

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get ready to set off~" Alicia said as she prepared to board the transport plane.

Then Su's voice came from not far away: "Please wait a moment, Kevin and I are coming too."

Everyone looked over and saw Su carrying Kevin and walking towards them with difficulty.

Everyone: "..."

Let’s not talk about why Su came here, Kevin, you…

"It will take some time for the transport plane to arrive at its destination. I can recover a little. Although it's not as good as normal, it's enough." Kevin explained.

Zhu Yufeng looked at Su: "I can understand Kevin is a man with a strong will despite his disability, but why are you......"

"My teacher wants me to participate in this investigation. He said that he wants me to see the world and that I can ask him anytime if I encounter something I don't know." Su smiled helplessly. "Besides, he thinks that the other members of this investigation are all my acquaintances, which will be more convenient."

Kosmo looked at Kevin with awe in his heart.

(As expected of Kevin, even with the memories of my previous life, I still have a lot to learn from him.)

The group boarded the transport plane and got ready in the transport cabin. This time, Padoko seized the opportunity and took advantage of Kevin's inability to move, and immediately took the seat next to Alicia after she sat next to Zhu Yufeng.

Kevin was stunned at first, then he thought, this was the first time for Padu to go on such a mission, and there were some things she wanted to know from Feng, so it was okay for her to sit next to him. He really had to keep a close eye on Alicia.

After everyone sat down, Paduo couldn't wait to ask the question she had been wanting to know the answer to yesterday: "Brother Yufeng, what on earth is that helpless solution you were talking about yesterday?"

Zhu Yufeng looked at Alicia, who sighed and chose to look away. Kevin and Kosmo could explain, but they were nominally new recruits, so it was difficult for them to speak.

Although Su had never participated in a similar mission before, he had guessed a little bit and decided to take the lead: "If I'm not mistaken, you may need to take action against humans in this investigation?" And kill them.

"Huh? Why?" Desdobia was a little confused. "Is it because our destination is a remote mountainous area? Considering that the locals may be quite xenophobic, do we need to use force to protect ourselves?"

"That would be great if that's all." Zhu Yufeng crossed his arms and said, "Desdobia, how much do you know about Honkai during the days you've been here at the Fire Moth?"

"Uh... a natural disaster?" Desdobia thought for a moment. "Its impact on humans depends on the individual's resistance to Honkai energy. When the concentration of Honkai energy is high, it will give rise to Honkai beasts, death warriors, and even Herrschers?"

"So, do you know where the assassins came from?" Zhu Yufeng asked.

"Aren't the dead soldiers humans who have been eroded by Honkai energy? Because they have lost their sanity and the ability to communicate, they cannot be considered humans." Desdobia replied.

Zhu Yufeng continued: "So what should people who have been half eroded by Honkai energy do?"

"Of course we should take them in..." Desdobia's words were stuck in the middle. She looked at Zhu Yufeng's calm face, then at Alicia who chose to look away, and then at Ying. A bad premonition arose in her heart.

Her voice became a little lighter: "We are going to take them in and treat them, right?"

She remembered that Dr. Mobius also had symptoms of Honkai energy erosion, so Feng asked him to stop being involved in Honkai energy-related experiments for a period of time, and Feng also supervised his diet and exercise.

Su spoke up: "For Honkai energy erosion, if the symptoms are very mild, like what happened to Dr. Mobius before, then it is possible to recover by minimizing exposure to Honkai energy and using some drugs to assist. But... as long as the degree of erosion reaches the point where obvious red lines appear on the body surface, then no matter how normal the person being eroded behaves, they... are beyond saving."

He had experienced this deeply when he was a doctor in his previous life. At that time, even before the appearance of the Eighth Herrscher, humans were still helpless against their own kind who were corroded by Honkai energy.

Let alone now.

In order to prevent the further erosion of the host by Honkai energy and its subsequent spread, they need to take appropriate measures against those who are eroded by Honkai energy.

"Really... is there no other way?" Desdobia asked with some difficulty.

"If there are not many people and their symptoms are mild, we can indeed bring back the Fire Chaser Moths." Zhu Yufeng said, "However, since there is currently no effective treatment, they can also be used as experimental subjects. But if the situation is serious, we can only kill them quickly."

Desdobia's pupils shrank.

She looked at Kosmo, hoping that Ah Mo would speak up to refute, but Kosmo finally said only one sentence: "...between the two evils, there is no other choice."

Chapter 55 Investigation Begins

After Kosmo gave his answer, Desdobia looked at him in disbelief. She didn't believe that the Amo she knew would give such an answer. Shouldn't he be on her side?

In fact, if Kosmo had not been reborn, he would indeed stand on the side of Desdobia, believing that no matter how severe the symptoms of Honkai erosion were, they should try to bring back the Fire Moth for treatment.

But... after being reborn, he knew very well that there was no way to do this, and... for the top leaders, it was simply unrealistic to invest a large amount of resources in something that had no clear benefits.

Desdobia shifted her gaze to Kevin, who simply chose to close his eyes and pretend to sleep. He was not the kind of person who would care about such things. His reason for saving the world was already very narrow, just for Mei, but now he had another reason to save Feng and Alicia as well.

Although he did not support Alicia and Feng, this did not affect his desire to remove the suffering that Alicia had to bear from her back.

If it were him before, he might have hesitated, but the final decision would not change. Moreover, after experiencing the Sixth Herrscher incident, he would be even less merciful.

"Then...little Pado, do you think so too?" Desdobia looked at Pado and asked as if asking for help.

"As for us... maybe we would feel a little bit reluctant..." Padu said uncertainly, because she had no real feeling about this kind of thing. Growing up in Dusk Street, she had seen too many intrigues and life-and-death struggles. Maybe she would feel pity, but more likely she would want to stay out of it.

Desdobia said nothing more.

The investigation team arrived at their destination in silence.

Before getting off the transport plane, Zhu Yufeng asked everyone to wear combat uniforms. Although a small-scale collapse might not have much impact on the people present given their physical conditions, at least wearing combat uniforms could be a precaution.

"Speaking of which, Brother Yufeng, why didn't Ahua come?" Paduo asked when getting off the transport plane.

"Hua's training time is not enough. Although her training results are good enough, she has only been in the headquarters for a few days. She cannot go on a mission until she has enough training time." Zhu Yufeng explained.

This area has been blocked by the authorities. People inside cannot leave, and people outside cannot come in.

As the leader of this investigation, Alicia showed her credentials to the soldier guarding the entrance, who immediately made way. But before entering the investigation area, the soldier suddenly asked, "What will happen to those people inside?"

Zhu Yufeng, who was walking at the end, glanced at him and said, "Most of them can still be alive." Then he walked in.

Watching the investigation team enter the blockade area, the soldier's companion asked, "What's wrong with you? They are specialists sent by higher-ups. How dare you ask them questions like this?"

The soldier replied: "They... are too young. It is hard to imagine that the higher-ups would assign such a mission to such a group of young people... Besides, I have participated in similar blockades before..."

"The results of it?"

"No one survived. I heard it was a very special plague."

"Who cares? We just do what the higher-ups tell us to do. They must have their reasons for sending them here. We don't need to worry about that."

"Alas... I just hope that not so many more people will die."

The scene turns to the investigation team.

"The concentration of Honkai energy has been confirmed to be abnormal. It seems that a minor Honkai has indeed occurred here." Su said while holding the Honkai energy monitor, "If this is the case..."

"Then there must be infected people." Kevin took over the conversation.

He has almost recovered now. Although he may not have fully recovered his combat effectiveness, at least he will not hold the team back.

Kosmo took the rare opportunity to speak to Desdobia: "Desdobia, you..."

"Hmph, you traitorous demon, don't talk to me!" Desdobia turned her head away.

Kosmo: "..."

(I remember in my last life, when Kevin led us on a mission, it was you who comforted me. I didn’t expect that this time, it was me who comforted you. Did you mind this matter as much as I did at that time?)

He thought of the Eighth Herrscher incident again. He still didn't know what Desdobia saw in her dream when she was trying to locate the Eighth Herrscher that could make her fall into an eternal sleep. Now, if he could do it again, he wanted to save Desdobia.

Sakura, who was walking in the front, suddenly asked, "Su, is the source of the collapse in that village?"

Su looked at the village not far away, then looked at the instrument in his hand, shook his head and said: "The source of this collapse is not in that village, but in another direction."

Alicia looked at Zhu Yufeng, who nodded at her and raised his hand to signal everyone to look at him.

"Then we will split into two teams here. One team will go to investigate the source of the Honkai, and the other team will go to the village to investigate." Zhu Yufeng said, and he glanced at Desdobia again, "Desdobia, you, Kosmo, and Su will go to the village to investigate. Su will be in charge of the command. To be on the safe side, Ying, you will also follow Kosmo and the others. The rest of you will go to investigate the source of the Honkai together."

Before Desdobia could speak, Kosmo said, "Feng, I want to go investigate with you. As for Su, I think Paduo is more suitable than me."

Kevin glanced at Kosmo. Why did it feel like he had to worry about this couple?

Zhu Yufeng looked at Padu and asked, "What do you think, Padu?"

Padu looked at Zhu Yufeng, then at Desdobia, hesitated for a while, and said: "Amo is not good at communicating with others, let us do it."

Zhu Yufeng glanced at Kosmo and nodded: "That's it."

The group split up and went in two directions.

On the way to the source of the collapse, Alicia said with a smile: "Wow, you are worthy of being the leader of the fallen angels. How about I give you the position of captain now, Feng?"

Zhu Yufeng looked in the direction of the village and said, "If it were you, you would have arranged it the same way, right? And wasn't it you who asked me to step up and arrange it at that time?"

"That's right, but you understood when I just gave you a look. Maybe we actually work well together?" said Alicia.

Zhu Yufeng did not take over the conversation. He was afraid that Kevin would cause trouble again, so he immediately said to Kosmo, "I originally hoped that you, as Desdobia's childhood sweetheart, would go and enlighten her."

"I... am not good at guiding others." Kosmo said, "Compared to me, Padu, who has a good relationship with Desdobia, is more suitable."

"She will have to get used to it sooner or later. Our enemies are never just Honkai. Sometimes humans can also become our enemies." Zhu Yufeng said.

Kosmo was silent for a moment, then said, "...the resistance army?"

"The original intentions of the warriors among them may be good, and they are fighting for humanity just like us, but among the initial resistance army, there were also some who failed because of the struggle for power within the top leadership." Zhu Yufeng said expressionlessly.

The composition of the resistance army is actually quite complicated. Some people join the resistance army because they do not believe in the Fire Moths, some people join the resistance army because they are bewitched and coerced by others, and some people join the resistance army because they want to break away from the Fire Moths and pursue more power and status.

No matter what the reason for becoming a rebel, their fate was sealed when they became enemies with the Fire Moths.

"You are a treacherous liar! You promised us that you would let us live!"

He remembered that it was Lilith who answered for him at that time: "Feng promised to give you a way out. What does it have to do with us?"

It's really a standard villain line.

It's not that he didn't consider leaving some people to fill the God's Grace Barrier. After all, he knew the weakness of the God's Grace Barrier from the beginning. However, there were several months between the Tenth and Eleventh Herrscher incidents. How should the prisoners be fed during this period? How should their accommodation be arranged?

After all, the top management didn't give him any corresponding arrangements.

It was obvious that he was asked to do the dirty work.

"Maybe this time we can avoid the emergence of the resistance." Kosmo said.

Zhu Yufeng looked at Kosmo and continued on his way: "You are too naive, Kosmo."

There will always be people who are unwilling to lose power, and there will always be people who want to seize more power.

This is the heart of the people.

Alicia said: "But at least we can try, right?"

Zhu Yufeng was silent for a moment. He remembered Mobius' plan. If Mobius really had a way, then it seemed that it was not impossible. All he had to do was to eradicate those who were squeezed out of the center of power.

"You're right, Alicia," he said.

Kosmo: "..."

What is differential treatment? This is differential treatment!
