Wanjie Game Hall, I sent Kiana to Silent Hill

Su answered the question with a chuckle, "Actually, you've seen them too, Mr. Manager."

"That's not a good guess." Wang Xuanqiao was almost back to the center of the solar system. "The people and things I've seen even include myself when I look in the mirror this morning."

"My former comrade, I'll leave you with this." Su didn't respond directly, but instead avoided the topic, "Mr. Manager, please be careful of the End. He makes his move here."

As soon as the words fell, Su's "voice call" ended. Coincidentally, Wang Xuanqiao passed by the moon. He subconsciously glanced at the satellite that had orbited the Earth for tens of millions of years, and after a moment, he suddenly laughed.

Okay, then let's see who you are.

Wang Xuanqiao, carrying the life support capsule, stepped onto the earth again. He directly chose the World Snake base to land, as skillfully as the boss of the World Snake.

And the real leader of the World Serpent, Kevin, is rushing over.

Wang Xuanqiao placed the life support capsule firmly on the ground. The backup life support system, which had been activated after the connection was severed, automatically shut down after detecting Earth's environment. The hatch slowly opened with the sound of air puffs exchanging air between the inside and outside. The girl with long, light blue hair rubbed her head and slowly sat up.

"That's really long...huh?"

Although her vision became blurry when she woke up from a long dream and she even had to close her eyes temporarily to adjust to the light, the girl instinctively sensed something was wrong.

But where I'm sitting...is the life support cabin, right?

She blinked slightly, trying to make the things in front of her clearer.

At this moment, a strange voice reached the girl's ears.

"Are you awake?"

It was a man's voice, not deep, but magnetic.

"Welcome back to Earth."

"Eh?!" The girl's eyes widened in an instant.

Volume 059: : Alicia is not dead

Grace began to doubt whether she had woken up at all.

After all, there are too many unbelievable things right now, such as why the life support capsule is not on the spacecraft, but on the ground; why some people say this is Earth, not an alien planet; why Uncle Kevin really appeared...

Uncle Kevin?!

Grace rubbed her eyes subconsciously.

Not an illusion?

"It's not an illusion, Grace. You're back on Earth." Kevin's voice came into his ears.

"Although you may not believe it, but... all of this is to bring back the lost Yingjie."

"This... How is this possible?" Grace struggled to get up from the life support cabin. "Uncle Kevin, what on earth happened?"

When she stood up, Wang Xuanqiao saw three petals flying out from the bottom of the cabin, so he stretched out his hand and let them merge into the crystal flower.

This leaves only the last two fragments - Hua and Aponya.

"Is that... the color of Alicia?" Grace suddenly spoke, her gaze completely focused on the crystal flower in Wang Xuanqiao's hand.

However, this flower still has no entity at this time and should not be seen by people.

Seeing Kevin's puzzled look, Wang Xuanqiao realized that it might be Grace's innate talent.

"Yes, this is what Alicia left on you..."

When it came time to describe the petals, Wang Xuanqiao couldn't help but ponder for a moment, considering what words to use.

"Maybe it's the thread." Gresh said first, "I remember Mother Aponya once said that there are many threads entangled in us, and Alicia's thread is special."

"That's understandable." Wang Xuanqiao nodded gently, then suddenly asked Grace, "You don't call her Sister Alicia anymore?"

"Well..." Grayshu couldn't help but lower her head and rub her fingers.

Kevin's eyes flickered several times, signaling his racing thoughts. Taking advantage of Gray Xiu's embarrassment, he asked Wang Xuanqiao his own question.

"Can I understand that Alicia still exists in this world?"

"Yes. As you all know, she's a Herrscher. However, she's a very special Herrscher." Wang Xuanqiao gazed at the crystal flower floating in his palm. "I believe it's very difficult for a Herrscher to truly die. A Herrscher with a will of their own can reside in the Herrscher core and seek a chance at resurrection, just like this civilization's Second Herrscher."

"The Herrschers of the previous civilization were merely puppets created by the Houkai, so they naturally didn't have such an opportunity. But Alicia is different. She is a Herrscher, and moreover, a human. Therefore, her consciousness will definitely not dissipate with her death."

Wang Xuanqiao raised his head and fixed his gaze on Kevin.

"After a brief conversation with Su, I confirmed that Alicia must be existing in a state that is difficult for life in this dimension to reach. Because Su and Mobius, who were moving into the higher dimension, both discovered the thread that Alicia left on them."

"You mean, Sue, and Dr. Mebius, they're not actually dead?" Kevin clenched his arms unconsciously.

"For both of them, physical death is not the end, but the beginning of spiritual transcendence." Wang Xuanqiao turned to look at Grace, who was covering her head. "I don't know about Mobius, but Su, he has been watching you from outside this world."

"For example, this time, it was because I found you that I was able to establish a connection with him."

Kevin sighed.

"That's exactly what he would do. Even though his mission has been completed, he's still worried about us." He couldn't help but look up at the sky, vaguely hoping to meet the eyes of his deceased friend.

"Uncle Su..." Grace also raised her head, and the long dream that she had not forgotten seemed to appear before her eyes again - Taixu Mountain hidden in time, Sister Hua, Sister Danzhu, Sister Cangxuan, Uncle Su, Uncle Kevin, and... the still young self.

"Hey! Stop being so sentimental." Wang Xuanqiao quickly called back the two old-timers who were reminiscing about the past. "Looks like I need to give you a heads-up. Since I'm involved, even if I shed tears, they'll only be tears of emotion or joy."

"Yes! I understand, uncle."

Grace quickly adjusted her mood, but Kevin turned around and looked around, not knowing what he was doing.

"Okay. You guys can take your time to reminisce about the past. I'm going to the next place. If nothing goes wrong, we should be done today." Wang Xuanqiao said goodbye to Grayxiu and Kevin, holding the crystal flower, and went straight to Hyperion.

Seeing the person in front of her disappear as if out of thin air, Grace couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Uncle Kevin, who is that uncle?" She turned to look at Kevin.

Kevin wanted to introduce himself, but suddenly realized that he and Wang Xuanqiao hadn't properly exchanged self-introductions yet. As a last resort, he searched his memory and pieced together some information from the people in the Anti-Entropy group.

"...His last name is Wang. However, everyone around him calls him the store manager."

"Is that so? Then next time, just call him Uncle Manager."

The shop manager, as Grayshu had mentioned, had returned to Hyperion, his main focus being efficiency. His return hadn't even alerted anyone; not even Kiana realized Wang Xuanqiao was outside her room.

After all, the person they were looking for this time was Fu Hua, who had seemed to have sealed herself off from the outside world since returning to the collapsed world. Wang Xuanqiao could understand Fu Hua's thoughts; it was probably a form of self-exile, a form of punishment.

She did indeed bear a considerable share of the responsibility for the Queen's return to the world.

So Wang Xuanqiao thought it would be best not to let others know where Fu Hua was hiding until she had reconciled with herself. What she needed was not comfort, not persuasion, and certainly not the responsibility that would push her away.

It’s just right, I can take this opportunity to take Fu Hua from Kiana to myself.

"Hmm? Why does it feel like the store manager is nearby?"

Kiana, who was practicing suppressing Honkai energy in the room, suddenly raised her head, ran to the door in three or two steps, opened the door and stuck her head out into the corridor.

But the corridor was empty. Where was anyone?

"Strange? Is it an illusion?" Kiana looked left and right, and seeing that there was indeed no one there, she retreated back into the room.

"Haha, you can't be missing the store manager, right?" The white-haired boy stroked his hair and joked to himself, "But I can't rely on the store manager anymore in the next battle, and I must not lose to my stinky dad!"

Wang Xuanqiao silently encouraged Kiana, then ran away with Yu Duchen and Fu Hua.

It was not until she left Hyperion that the woman who had locked herself in her mind finally showed up.

"Manager, what are you going to do by taking Yu Duchen away?" Although Fu Hua had no expression on her face, she was actually vaguely reluctant.

"Of course I'll take you to pick up Alicia. Don't you want to?" Wang Xuanqiao asked her.

"...Are you serious?" Like Gray Xiu Kevin, Fu Hua couldn't believe her ears for a moment.

"Do I look like someone who would lie about something like this?" Wang Xuanqiao laughed. "For such an important occasion, if one of the thirteen people was missing, everyone would definitely feel regretful, wouldn't they?"

Fu Hua stopped talking and returned to Yu Duchen.

At the same time, a petal gently fell from the end of Yu Duchen.

The incomplete crystal flower is almost complete, with only one last gap left!

——The author has something to say——

Is Ai Li considered to be full of face? He even ran half the universe to save her 233

In addition, Mebius's status in the original work is still ambiguous. Although the Paradise Snake claimed that she interfered with the real Snake's thoughts and chose to destroy herself, we all know that the most stubborn thing in Paradise is Snake's mouth, and she is likely to be talking nonsense.

Combining Su's advancement through death and the fact that Snake in reality found Prometheus in the last few minutes before the end of the world, my personal judgment is that she made a huge gamble with her death. If she wins, she will transcend, but if she loses, she will be destroyed.

Of course, book lovers will definitely have their own interpretations, and welcome to discuss.

Volume 060: : The Time of Return Has Come

The last petal is in the paradise of the afterlife.

It’s like a journey, no matter how wonderful or ordinary it is, you will eventually return to the place where you started.

Wang Xuanqiao, carrying the crystal flower, passed by Kevin and Grace who were having a long conversation, and plunged into the paradise of the afterlife.

Alicia sat on the sofa in the lounge. She seemed to have never left, waiting there silently until Wang Xuanqiao appeared again.

"Huh? You're back so soon..." Alicia was about to get up to greet him, but her movements and words suddenly stopped in an instant.

This was the first time Wang Xuanqiao had seen Alicia look surprised. Even when he revealed the existence of the arcade to her, Alicia had only shown curiosity and a desire to explore.

"You really brought it back." Alicia quickly recovered from her surprise, but her tone was no longer as lively and cheerful as before. It was a bit too quiet, like a whisper to her heart.

In a sense, this reaction is like touching upon a little secret in a girl's heart.

If the girl had a lower emotional threshold, she would probably be incoherent by now.

"There's still one piece missing. Don't worry." Wang Xuanqiao couldn't help but smile. "Besides, this is the clue you left for me."

A smile appeared on Alicia's face again.

"It seems both the real me and the Elysian me are placing their hopes on you," she said. "Then I have nothing to worry about. Alas, I was just thinking of it as a cryptic hint, but I'm a little disappointed~"

Alicia walked up to Wang Xuanqiao with slow steps, and he saw that the pair of eyes as clear as autumn water were completely filled with his image.

"Xuan Qiao, can you take me to see this world again?" Alicia said softly.

"Well, keep it on me."

Wang Xuanqiao walked past Alicia and headed straight into the depths of the paradise.

Aponia still imprisoned herself in the deepest darkness. She built a deep threshold for herself, confining her freedom and self-confined to this small space.

This is what it means to be a prisoner of fate. The tragedy of the prophet destined her to bear shackles.

"You're back, manager." Aponiya sat upright in the cage and greeted Wang Xuanqiao's arrival with a soft voice.

"Yes, I'm back." Wang Xuanqiao nodded, "I'm here to end my past life in paradise."

"I've seen it," Aponya said softly, "This time, fate has finally reached its end."

Wang Xuanqiao suddenly wanted to play a trick on her, otherwise the word "fate" would probably continue to haunt this woman.

"Then did you see how the paradise of the past ended?" he asked.

"It is the nothingness of all loss."

"Okay, then..." Wang Xuanqiao turned around, his back to Aponya, and opened his arms. "I've decided not to destroy the Paradise of the Past!"

"...Manager, fate is not..."

"Look again at the scene that fate has told you." Wang Xuanqiao turned his head and said.

"This..." There was hesitation in Aponya's voice.

"What has become of fate?"

“…it became what it was.”

Wang Xuanqiao then turned around again and extended his hand holding the crystal flower to Aponiya.

"See. When you're strong enough, fate will only dance to your will. This term isn't sacred; don't let it suppress you." He said, "Hasn't Alicia already shown you this truth?"

Aponiya couldn't see the crystal flower, but when Wang Xuanqiao brought it closer, the familiar "line" suddenly flashed across her eyes.

Aponia's pupils dilated instantly, and her eyelids, which had been lowered unwillingly to face fate, slowly lifted up, wanting to retain the past that had been lost in the years.
