Is this world of yours a serious place?

Generally speaking, even a Honkai beast would not be able to survive after being dismembered.

But Janna doesn't seem to be in this category. Even though her body was dismembered, her consciousness did not disappear.

The beautiful figure on the sea was obviously very far away, but it moved to the shore in just a few breaths and looked at Chen Xiuming with a smile.

Janna was wearing an ancient blue and white nun's uniform, her long light blue hair fell to her calves, and her eyes, as blue and deep as the sea, stared directly at Chen Xiuming.

The old-style nun's uniform is very loose and even looks a bit bloated.

But as the sea breeze blows, one can vaguely see the detailed curves of Janna's body that are inadvertently outlined by the nun's uniform that clings to her body, and one can vaguely see that Janna's body is very slender yet plump.

“Nice to meet you—or maybe it’s the second time we meet. My name is Janna. I was once a planetary Houkai beast that was tasked with destroying humanity. But that’s all in the past. Now I am…”

Janna paused for a moment, and it was unknown what she was thinking about. She sighed helplessly, and the corners of her mouth curled up a little, "It's just a lonely soul floating in the endless deep sea, about to die."

"I'm Chen Xiuming." Chen Xiuming took a deep breath and calmed his inner tension. "Is there anything you need me to do?"

It is impossible for Janna to come to him for no reason, and combined with the experience of the first nightmare, Chen Xiuming can be sure that Janna must have something to ask for.

"I hope you can help that kid out."

"The child is..."

Chen Xiuming suddenly had an extremely ominous premonition, and at the same time had some incredible guesses.

Janna smiled without saying anything, walked onto the beach, leaving a trail of footprints on the clean sand.

After a moment, she stood in front of Chen Xiuming and answered Chen Xiuming's questions softly.

"My beloved Kiana, also known as the Herrscher of the End."

"And what does liberation mean..."

"As long as she is killed, she will be freed."

Janna spoke softly, as if she was talking about something insignificant.

Chen Xiuming's eyes suddenly widened, his face full of disbelief, and he couldn't help but point at himself, "Me?"

I fight the Herrscher of the End?

Eh?

real or fake?

Chen Xiuming wondered if he had missed a few words, or if he had accidentally "traveled" to the final decisive battle, so that he had to rely on his weak human body to face the strongest life created by Honkai, the "Hersher of the End".

However, Janna seemed not to notice Chen Xiuming's disbelief. She reached out and took Chen Xiuming's right hand to stroke her cheek, maintaining a very intimate posture.

"Please don't worry. You are the only hope for the child's liberation. I stole a tiny part of the power of "The End" at the cost of my life, which can protect you from the child's attack."

Chen Xiuming seemed to be thinking about something, and asked, "Is it the lines on my back?"

Janna's smile brightened a little, she reached out and gently stroked Chen Xiuming's cheek, and continued with joy: "Yes, that is a very small part of the power of "The End". Although it cannot possess the full power of the Herrscher of the End, it can temporarily make you be considered as "the same kind" by the child, and have the power to kill the child."

Even though Janna said this, Chen Xiuming did not have much confidence in killing the Herrscher of the End.

42. Use the power of "End" to kill the Herr of the End

Janna's hands were smooth and delicate, yet very cold, as if they had no temperature at all.

Not only that, her cheeks, although delicate to the touch, were also very cold.

"That child has been trapped in a cycle of despair for tens of thousands of years. I can't bear to see her continue to be trapped in this cycle."

"That being said, though..."

Chen Xiuming's face was full of confusion, and the situation was now basically clear.

If you want to leave the world bubble, you need to deal with the Herrscher of the End first, otherwise it will be difficult to leave the world bubble safely.

After much hesitation, he sighed helplessly, as if accepting his fate, and took the initiative to ask for the detailed plan.

"what should I do?"

"It's very simple - I will activate the power of "The End" in you, allowing you to temporarily exude the aura of "The End."

Although the Herrscher of the End destroyed human civilization with her own hands, this was not the girl's original intention.

However, she has transformed into the Herrscher of the End. Before the demise of human civilization, she cannot control her own body and can only watch as her body destroys human civilization uncontrollably.

When human civilization was completely destroyed, she finally took back control of her body, but it was too late. The bloody scene of destroying human civilization with her own hands kept echoing in her mind, making her fall into despair and even drive her crazy.

Because the "Herserer of the End" is a perfect life created by Honkai, she is no longer a human being, but an immortal being. So even if she wants to die, she cannot commit suicide.

The Herrscher of the End has a unique judgment mechanism, and only humans will become the target of the Herrscher of the End.

The power of "The End" that Janna had seized at the cost of her life has been engraved on Chen Xiuming's back. As long as the golden lines are fully activated, the breath of "The End" can be used to temporarily cover up the human breath, but it cannot be hidden from the girl who is numb with despair.

"In a world where humans have been exterminated by their own hands, a human who has not died suddenly appears. What do you think that child will think of you?"

“…Redemption?”

Chen Xiuming gave a tentative answer.

Janna's smile grew brighter, and she said, "Yes, and it's more than just 'redemption' - you will become the pillar of support for the child to continue living, and the 'hope of redemption'."

"It turns out that we don't have to kill the Herrscher of the End..."

Chen Xiuming breathed a sigh of relief, and the invisible pressure on his shoulders disappeared in an instant.

However, before he could relax for long, Janna tore his luck apart with her own hands.

"No, killing that child is an essential step. After all..." Janna restrained her smile, "If that child's 'body' is not dead, once the aura of the power of 'End' disappears, that child will lose control of his body and will chase you to death."

"..."

Chen Xiuming fell silent.

Janna let go of Chen Xiuming with a smile and walked behind Chen Xiuming leisurely.

"But you can rest assured that before the breath of "The End" disappears, the child will not actively attack you, and you only need to kill the child at this time - with your current strength, only the power of "The End" can kill the child who is the Herrscher of the End."

"Is this really possible?"

"Of course, this is the last chance."

Janna's right hand quietly reached into Chen Xiuming's clothes, stroking the golden lines on Chen Xiuming's back, her tone somewhat sad.

"I don't have much time left. If you come a few days later, you might not be able to see me."

Cana sighed quietly, and her tone was filled with envy. "It's a pity that I'm not human, otherwise I would be the only support for my beloved Kiana to survive."

"What should I do after I kill the End?"

Although Janna described it as easy, Chen Xiuming didn't really think it was easy.

If there is a problem in any link in the process, he will have to pay the price with his life.

"That child will rely on you who still have the power of the 'end' to continue his life, just as I said you will become the 'pillar' that keeps that child alive."

"……it is good."

If what Janna said was true, then as long as there were no mistakes in the process, Chen Xiuming would get the help of "Herrser of the End".

Even if there is a high probability that his power is incomplete, he is still the invincible "Herrser of the End".

"Thank you for helping that child get free."

Janna sincerely thanked Chen Xiuming, with a hint of sadness between her brows.

If nothing unexpected happens, after she activates the golden lines for Chen Xiuming, she will use up her last bit of strength and completely die.

"I will activate the power of "End" for you now. I'll leave the rest to you."

Janna's tone sounded like she was asking for help, but she did not give Chen Xiuming a chance to answer. The huge amount of Honkai energy instantly poured into the golden lines on Chen Xiuming's back, actively stimulating the golden lines while maintaining their stability.

But she was already looking into the distance, and her longing gaze seemed to cross the space and see the white-haired girl lying quietly in the ruins of the academy.

As the golden lines were fully activated, Janna's figure became extremely illusory.

When she was about to die, she seemed to sense something and suddenly looked at the shadow under Chen Xiuming's feet. It was as if she had discovered an opportunity to continue living. The sadness between her brows was instantly replaced by joy.

"what……"

"You are indeed me and that child..."

Janna's voice was very soft, even softer than the sound of the breeze.

Before he even had the chance to utter a complete sentence, the illusory form had already merged into the shadow under Chen Xiuming's feet.

Since she can continue to live, Janna will definitely choose to continue living no matter what the cost.

What's more, the price of continuing to live by relying on Chen Xiuming is not unacceptable.

The moment Janna merged into the shadow, Chen Xiuming immediately learned the details.

From then on, Janna would live in his shadow, and they would form an unequal coexistence relationship.

As long as Chen Xiuming is alive, Janna will not die.

On the contrary, once Chen Xiuming dies, Janna will perish as well.

Unfortunately, Janna's original body is dead. Even if she continues to live by relying on him, she cannot exert the strength of a traveling-level Honkai beast. She needs to constantly devour Honkai beasts to restore her strength.

Perhaps because the energy consumption of activating the golden lines was too great, Janna fell into a deep sleep after merging into Chen Xiuming's shadow. She only passed him a location coordinate and a brief message, which roughly said that there was a special broken world bubble at that location, and a little guy was hiding inside and struggling to survive.

If he is interested, he can consider going to that location after helping the Herrscher of the End to be freed.

"Janna didn't lie to me. As long as I help the Herrscher of the End to be freed according to the method Janna gave me, I can escape from this world..."

"Cecilia, wait for me for a while, I will be able to find you soon."

Chen Xiuming murmured softly, then looked into the distance.

After Janna activated the golden lines, he could vaguely sense the direction and distance of the Herrscher of the End.

Soon, new problems came one after another——

How could he cross such a long distance to find the Herrscher of the End?

Although the golden lines are nominally the power of "End", in fact, it is only a very small part of the power, which cannot enable Chen Xiuming to have the power to cross space.

Furthermore, the breath of "the end" will not last too long.

Just when Chen Xiuming felt that he was going to "die before accomplishing his mission", a white-haired girl with a numb face followed the sudden vague sensation, crossed the long distance, and appeared at the end of his sight.

When Chen Xiuming could sense the position of the Herr of the End, the Herr of the End could also sense his position in reverse.

43. The Liberation of the Herrscher of the End

The white-haired girl landed in front of Chen Xiuming and stared at him quietly.

Seeing that the white-haired girl did not make any move, Chen Xiuming did not dare to act rashly. While calming his inner anxiety, he carefully observed the girl.

The girl was wearing a blue and white dress, her long white hair that reached down to her knees fluttering in the wind, her golden eyes that should have been bright and dazzling were numb and dull, as if they had lost their highlight.

There is a halo like an "angel" floating above her head, and behind her there are golden symbols that look like wings, and pupils that look like simple drawings, making her look like a holy and flawless "god".

Although she was born from human origin, the girl is not a "god" of mankind, but a "devil" that destroys human civilization.

The girl stared at Chen Xiuming quietly for a long time, then seemed to realize that her body would not attack Chen Xiuming, and seemed to have regained control of her body. Her numb eyes suddenly flashed with a bright light.

"you……"

The girl seemed in disbelief. She took two or three steps subconsciously, but in an instant she crossed a distance of more than ten meters and appeared in front of Chen Xiuming.

She seemed to want to touch Chen Xiuming, but was worried about hurting him. She stretched out her right hand and hung it in the air, staring at Chen Xiuming in a daze.

Although the aura of "the end" concealed Chen Xiuming's human nature, the girl still confirmed that Chen Xiuming was a human at first glance.

Chen Xiuming knew the girl's tragic experience. When he saw that the girl did not attack him immediately, the huge rock hanging in his heart fell gently to the ground, and even the invisible pressure on his shoulders disappeared without a trace.

Then he reached out and grasped the girl's wrist, pulling her right hand close to his cheek.

The girl shuddered suddenly, and seemed to be worried about accidentally hurting Chen Xiuming and tried to retract her right hand.

At this moment, she seemed to no longer be the invincible "Herrser of the End", but had turned into a fragile and desperate weak girl who was unable to break free from Chen Xiuming's hand.

When her right hand touched Chen Xiuming's cheek and she felt the warmth from her fingertips and palm, the girl's pupils trembled and she opened her lips slightly in disbelief, but she could not utter any words and could only make meaningless sounds.
