Collapse City, the beginning of the production of the anime version of Collapse 3

"Because the highest commander of this base is Mei." Su shook his head: "Before entering the archives room, Ying used the excuse of obeying Dr. Mei's orders."

"Little follower, you are a little follower wherever you go." Mebius laughed.

"In other words, this is not actually a world bubble, but something that happened in the previous civilization." Alicia suddenly realized.

"So, the 'snake' in the quantum sea is Kevin?" Mei said.

"Eh? Isn't that Mebius?"

"Humph, idiots are idiots." Mobius snorted, "I've said it many times, it's not me. When you mention snakes, is Mobius the only one you think of?"

"Aili, in the files Xier found, the code name of the Chimera Project is Tlaloc, which has the same name as the monster encountered in the Quantum Sea. Currently, it is the only one that can be confirmed to have absorbed most of the Honkai Beast Factors..."

Mei patiently explained to Alysia: "Only Kevin, plus the foreshadowing and Kevin's appearance at this time, unless Yaqing wants to play a contrast, I can't think of anyone other than Kevin."

"Oh oh oh."

Kevin could clearly see Qianjie's eyes and his arm hurt again.

Qianjie is Kevin’s fitness coach, and he seemed to see Kevin typing on the keyboard with sore hands after work.

"Kevin, you look so handsome every time you appear on stage." Xiao Shi turned his head and said, "You and Yaqing, do you really have no special deal?"

"How is that possible? I'm an innocent boy!" Kevin was thinking about proving himself and kept insulting Yaqing in his heart.

Yaqing, who was far away in Central Europe, sneezed again.

"Brother, are you really not catching a cold?" Cecilia asked with concern.

"No, sister." Yaqing was helpless.

It must be that damn Kevin scolding me again.

Chapter 4: The Tragedy of Corrosion, Humans’ Revenge on the Herrscher (K)

[Kevin's appearance doubled the pressure on Sakura.

Kevin was not afraid of Sakura who had already touched the hilt of the knife.

"Your behavior is tantamount to betrayal of humanity." Kevin came here to stop Sakura.

"Oh, betraying humanity?" Ying snorted coldly, as if venting her anger: "Ling is innocent! She didn't do anything. You can't just arbitrarily declare her a threat, let alone imprison her!"

Kevin calmly but indifferently reminded that Honkai energy reaction had been detected in Ling's body, and there was no doubt that she was the twelfth Herrscher.

Sakura felt that this reason was ridiculous. They also had Honkai energy reactions in their bodies, but they were also warriors fighting for humanity. However, Suzu had done nothing, yet she was being imprisoned and her life was being taken away.

"Ying, I understand how you feel." Kevin, who had just experienced the tragedy of the Restraint, did not want humans to suffer losses because of the Herrscher again. At the same time, he also hoped that Sakura could believe in Mei and that Mei would make a wise judgment.

"I don't doubt Dr. May's character, but I can't trust Fire Moth."

Sakura couldn't believe the Fire Moth's top brass. In their eyes, the fusion warriors who fought for humanity were no longer worthy of being called human beings.

"Step aside!"

Seeing that she couldn't convince Kevin, Ying decided to take action.

"Ying, the Fire Moth needs you. We need you." Kevin ignored Ying's threat. 】

"I... am a Herrscher? That's really..."

Ling stared at her hands in a daze.

Seeing Ling like this, Ying felt a little distressed and comforted her: "Ling, don't be too proud..."

"That would be great!"

Sakura was completely confused by Ling's excited tone.

"Sister, can I be as cool as Bronya when I become a Herrscher? A Herrscher fighting for humanity, it's so cool just thinking about it!" Ling was very excited, especially when she thought of the scene of Bronya just now.

In this regard, Ying was reluctant to break the child's beautiful fantasy, but she was also afraid that the child would not be able to accept the following plot.

"The battle between Sakura and Kevin?" The first thing that Alicia thought of was not the battle in the plot, but the battle between Sakura, who had practiced swordsmanship since childhood, and Kevin, a corporate slave, in real life.

Kevin will be miserable...

"He really knows you." Mebius glanced at Kevin.

"What?" Kevin didn't respond.

Mebius snorted coldly: "You have no judgment of your own and you always believe in Dr. Mei. You are really just a follower."

"The Twelfth Herrscher? I remember it was said in the plot that the Herrscher of the End who destroys the world is the Fourteenth Herrscher. In other words, Ling and the Thirteenth Herrscher together can wipe out humanity and leave only eight warriors?" In order to avoid Ling, Willie deliberately spoke in a low voice.

"After all, the power of the Herrscher is too outrageous. If it were put in the main storyline, the Anti-Entropy, which uses mecha as its main means of attack, would be directly useless."

[Sakura used her true ability for the first time in front of Kevin. Kevin walked towards Sakura with a flaming sword in his hand, and the person in front of him suddenly disappeared.

"what?!"

Kevin could have turned around and found that the two people in front of him were already behind him, running deep into the cave without looking back. The alarm sounded at an inopportune time.

"Attack alarm?" Kevin frowned. "It's not from them, it's from other floors. Not good!"

May's communication rang in Kevin's ears, issuing the order to attack. Kevin asked what exactly happened.

"The Herrscher has awakened."】

"What kind of superpower is this? Stopping time?!" Kiana was shocked.

Unlike the game, the movie specifically depicts the moment when Sakura draws her sword and the surroundings slow down. Sakura grabs Seele's hand and comes behind Kevin, and time returns to normal.

"Impossible! If time stopped, it would be too weird. The ice effect at the moment of drawing the sword is more like freezing time." Bronya analyzed calmly.

"Bronya, are you awake?" Kiana looked at Bronya: "If time is frozen, wouldn't it be even more BT?"

"There must be a limit." Bronya shook her head: "If Sakura can freeze time at will, then she doesn't need to hide. When she meets Kevin, she can just freeze time and run away with Seele."

"I think the restriction should be on the knife." Mei suddenly spoke.

"The Herrscher has awakened..."

I heard what Dr. Mei said at the end.

Everyone's faces looked grim, as if they had seen the tragedy that was about to happen.

Only Ling was still pulling Ying and saying, "Sister, watch out for my next transformation!"

The only response she got was Sakura's forced smile.

[Ying was glad that Kevin left, but was surprised that assassins appeared in the base. Xier also went berserk due to the power of the stigmata, and her clothes appeared and disappeared.

After hearing Sakura's cry, he regained consciousness.

Xier blamed herself for her loss of control, and Ying gently comforted her. When she lowered her head in frustration, Ying gently rubbed her head.

"Everyone has something they want to protect, regardless of strength or weakness."

"Even the weakest people can find ways to protect their important treasures."

"I don't want to lose you no matter what. I want to protect you at all costs. Xier has also had this thought, right?"

"At that moment, you are the strongest person in the world."】

"It sounds so familiar, I seem to have heard it somewhere." Kiana scratched her head but couldn't remember where she had heard it before.

"Stupid Kiana, have you forgotten the web drama of Anti-Entropy: Origin?"

"Oh, that's right, so it was Sister Sakura who said this. I thought it was Edison who said it." Kiana suddenly realized.

Bronya shook her head. "It seems that the reason why the web series was broadcast before the movie was released was probably to warm up the movie."

[“Sister Ying, have you always been protecting Ling with this feeling?”

"Aren't they all like this, elder sisters and younger sisters?" Ying's originally cold face also showed some tenderness.

"Xier will always remember this sentence."

Xier asked Heixi in her heart. Heixi didn't understand why Xier lost control, but she wanted to know why Xier was so scared?

Xier could only feel that there was something terrible. At that moment, she suddenly felt a very angry and sad emotion. 】

"I have a knife, quick!" Paduo closed his eyes.

Sakura's hands, which were holding the armrest, were shaking as she looked at Ling worriedly.

[Taking the elevator to the 33rd floor underground, blood was splattered everywhere. Sakura ran wildly in the corridor that seemed like hell, and the alarm kept stirring her heartstrings.

When you find the room where the bell is imprisoned.

Ying broke into the room, but was stunned by the scene in front of her. The panic in her heart disappeared, leaving only a blankness. There was no more light in her eyes, and she knelt on the ground in a daze.

The air was filled with the smell of blood.

When Xier arrived, the camera turned to Ling lying on the ground, her body covered with shocking scars. One can imagine the treatment the girl suffered and her despair before death.

Xier couldn't imagine what kind of demon could do such a thing? 】

"This is... me?" The girl who was just thinking about how to kill everyone and save humanity was completely stunned when she saw "herself" dying tragically.

She didn't cry.

Because it happened so fast, she didn't have time to react.

"Beast!" This was Qianjie's angriest moment, even more angry than the first time he saw what the Tianming researcher did in the movie.

Although Qianjie didn't say it, he really liked children in his heart.

"Please calm down, Qianjie, these are all fake." Abonnia once again used her expertise as a psychological counselor to try to calm the furious Qianjie.

With Aponia's persuasion, Qianjie calmed down a little.

"It was actually stabbed..." Paddo didn't expect that the movie role of someone close to her would be stabbed so soon.

Kevin sighed: "This is what I said. The Corrosion tragedy was not a tragedy of the Herrscher against humans, but a tragedy of humans against the Herrscher."

Kevin understood why Ying blocked Yaqing in the office at that time, and why Yaqing didn't dare to say a word.

"Pre-civilization is a tragedy in itself. As long as your character is in the pre-civilization, you must be prepared for death." As a doctor, Su is very open-minded.

[Yakura stared blankly at Ling's body, and just repeated that if she was faster...

In order to buy time for Sakura to recover, Xier fought against the assassins alone.

Red flames suddenly swept in, burning the dead soldiers to ashes. In the center of the fire storm, stood a white-haired warrior.

They looked at each other in silence.

Kevin walked to Sakura, but received no response when he called her. He thought about Sakura's emotions countless times, but now, Sakura just sat there quietly, and refused to wake up no matter how others called her.

Kevin shook his head and reported to Dr. Mei that the dead soldiers had been cleared out.

Dr. Mei asked Kevin to continue observing the Herrscher's true form.

Kevin explained to Xier the ability of the twelfth Herrscher, which would only awaken after death. Without their knowledge, the soldiers in the base executed her without authorization, which awakened the Herrscher.

"Sakura is wrong. Ling is a genuine Herrscher. Sakura must take responsibility for her intrusion."

In the face of Xier's argument, Kevin said that even if he stopped those soldiers, there would be other people and other things that would become the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"When Ling was chosen to become the Herrscher, her fate was already determined."

"This is the collapse......!"

Kevin's eyes flashed with ferocity, and his clenched fists looked as if blood would flow out at any moment. He tried to calm his tone, but his trembling body revealed his pain and anger.

"Bastards, the person they killed wasn't the Herrscher, but just an unarmed girl who wanted to be reunited with her sister." Qianjie, who had just been comforted, became furious again.

Apocynia had no choice but to continue comforting her.

"How can there be such a bastard organization!" Padu couldn't stand it anymore. This was the first time she hoped that Otto would lead this organization. At least Otto could order his men to study the Herrscher instead of killing him directly.

Blanca covered Gresh's eyes as soon as she got off the elevator and said angrily, "These people should all be sent to the doctor's laboratory table."

"What are you talking about, Blanca?" Mobius waved his hand and said disdainfully, "My lab is full of volunteers working for the future of mankind and the financial future. I find these dregs sent here dirty."

"But to be honest, Mei, you are really cold now that you have become a leader." Mebius smiled.
