People are working on collapsing iron, and one concept-level capability is developed every month.

It's virtually impossible to crack it using normal methods.

Hearing this, Lin Yinzhou became interested.

Cracking it? Cracking my ass!

The seal was also enlightened, ensuring that it would become nourishment for the two "scepter" girls.

With this in mind, Lin Yinzhou no longer hesitated. He raised his hand and activated the two crystal balls that sealed the "Emperor's Scepter" together.

The hazy glow reappeared, and when it dissipated, two tall, white-haired girls appeared before everyone.

Their waist-length hair, as pure white and flawless as fresh snow, moved without wind, with faint starlight shimmering between the strands.

Their skin, like their white hair, was clear and flawless, even faintly translucent, as if they had never seen the sun.

Just as Lin Yinzhou was observing the two with great interest, they silently opened their eyes.

In an instant, his dazzling golden eyes, like blazing flames, filled the vision of everyone present.

Within those golden eyes, they witnessed the destruction of billions upon billions of stars!

The crimson flames of calamity consumed the galaxy, and countless stars were crushed to dust by an invisible force amidst silent lamentations. The magnificent tapestry of countless civilizations—towering towers, floating city-states, and networks of consciousness—were all twisted and carbonized in the raging inferno, turning into scattered ashes and dust.

As his golden eyes shifted, the scenery that everyone saw also changed imperceptibly.

Suddenly, everyone seemed to see the "end" of the universe.

The once magnificent starry sky cooled and dimmed at a visible speed until the last ray of light and heat was swallowed up by absolute cold, and the universe fell into eternal deathly darkness.

In that boundless darkness, even the "path of destiny" began to crumble. The seemingly tangible "path of destiny" broke and withered inch by inch, like the roots of an ancient tree that had been drained of all life force, and finally turned into ashes and vanished.

The structural basis of matter also silently crumbles, atoms disperse, particles lose their connection, and the macroscopic universe and microscopic particles simultaneously return to the most primordial "nothingness," as if they had never existed.

"Heat Death...The End of Dharma..."

Lin Yinzhou murmured softly.

""destroy"......"

The two experienced and prudent generals of the Immortal Boat, Jing Yuan and Huai Yan, seemed to be deep in thought.

Fei Xiao, on the other hand, was filled with fighting spirit, staring intently at the two of them.

"interesting."

Xingxiao curled the corners of his mouth, revealing the first smile he had shown since arriving beside Lin Yinzhou.

Such pure "destruction" is truly rare, even compared to hers, it's not much different.

Undeniably, she was somewhat tempted.

She was willing to pay any price to bring the two of them under her command.

Thinking this, Xingxiao glanced at Lin Yinzhou almost imperceptibly.

However, at that moment, everyone's expression changed drastically, and they suddenly looked up at the sky.

Above, the sun still blazed overhead, but everyone present knew that a star god was watching over this place. His name was... "Destruction".

The person being watched is...

Everyone silently looked at the two "scepter" girls gazing up at the sky.

At this moment, Xingxiao was also somewhat surprised.

Did these two's belief in "destruction" even move the "negative creation god"?

It seems that she and her partner are the two of them. Given their background and beliefs, they might actually become her colleagues.

Wait, if these two become her colleagues, then the Iron Tomb...

As his thoughts raced, Xingxiao suddenly awoke.

Why think so much! She doesn't have time to care about others right now! The "God of Negative Creation" has arrived! Isn't this the best time for her to escape? She might even have a chance to turn this strangely capable kid into a phantom soldier and take him as her subordinate!

Xingxiao no longer hesitated and immediately forced his way into the "Crossroads of Fate" to meet the "God of Negative Creation"!

However......

When she forced her way into the "Crossroads of Fate", she only saw the "God of Negation" leaving with his eyes closed.

"?!!"

Xingxiao's beautiful eyes widened!

No! I'm already inside! Why did you leave?!

Why don't you look at me even once more?

I am the "Great Lord of Annihilation" personally promoted by you! Didn't you notice I was standing there?! Or did you notice but didn't care?!

Just as Xingxiao was puzzled, the "Crossroads of Fate" had dissipated, and everyone's attention was focused on her.

Xingxiao's heart sank, and Qinjun lowered her head, not looking at anyone.

"Haha~"

Lin Yinzhou sneered, noted the matter down, and planned to discuss it with Xingxiao later.

As for now...

Lin Yinzhou's expression turned serious as he looked at the two girls wielding "scepters" and tentatively asked them a question.

"You've become the 'Great Lords of Annihilation'?"

The two, who looked almost identical, shook their heads in unison. "No, in His eyes, we may not be pure enough yet."

"Not pure enough?"

Lin Yinzhou immediately understood.

Previously, when they were the "Imperial Scepter," the two were perhaps pure enough, but after being enlightened by him, their underlying logic was engraved with the word "idol," and they were naturally not as pure as before.

If it's not pure enough, then why did "Nanook" come?

Lin Yinzhou asked when he didn't understand, and the two "scepter" girls answered in unison.

"Because of 'possibility'."

"possibility?"

Lin Yinzhou seemed to be deep in thought.

-------------------------------------

There will be another chapter before six o'clock.

Volume 1: 141. Absence makes the heart grow fonder

Without a doubt, the "possibilities" seen by Nanook would only lead to "destruction," and the kind of massive calamity that could affect half the universe.

In other words, even if the two "scepter" girls were under his command, they could still bring destruction to the world.

Lin Yinzhou frowned slightly, but did not press the matter further.

The current "Industrial Construction Department" is crowded and has many people talking. In addition to the three generals and Mr. Zhu Ming, there are also a large number of craftsmen of the immortal ships and diviners of the Grand Diviner. Some sensitive topics still need to be avoided.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Lin Yinzhou looked at the two girls with "scepters" again.

The two white-haired, golden-eyed beings were filled with inhuman divinity and destructive pressure. Staring at them for a while would inexplicably stretch the scale of time and space.

Immediately afterwards, an invisible, chilling wail silently rang in his ears, and after a while, it seemed that even his own body temperature was dropping.

After carefully sensing their strengths for a while, Lin Yinzhou gained a general understanding of their abilities.

Undoubtedly, they are at the level of a quasi-commander. If the two of them join forces, they can easily contend with a commander.

If the other "scepter" girls provide full assistance and amplification, its potential is very likely to be even higher than that of Black Phoenix.

Of course, this is just speculation. We'll have to wait until we reach the "Azure Star Sea" to figure out their true situation.

Thinking of this, Lin Yinzhou became even more convinced that starting his own business was the right choice.

After a period of expansion in combat power, he would be somewhat constrained if he continued to stay on the Immortal Ship.

Expansion...

Lin Yinzhou's mood suddenly became complicated.

Indeed, in the world of Honkai Impact 3rd, "expansion" is an essential element to experience.

Whether it's an inflation of combat power, an inflation of numerical values, or some other indescribable inflation, it's worth taking a good look at.

After a brief moment of distraction, Lin Yinzhou regained his composure and looked at the two of them with a normal expression.

Have you decided on your names yet?

"Please, Father God, bestow a name upon us."

The two girls with "scepters" said in unison.

Hmm... let me think...

Looking at the two people's striking resemblance, Lin Yinzhou suddenly had an idea.

"What do you think of the names Di Ehuang and Di Nüying?"

The reason they took "Di" as their surname is because their true form was an "imperial scepter".

The names Ehuang and Nüying were borrowed from the names of Emperor Yao's two daughters, namely the two Xiangfei.

"Ehuang/Nüying greets Father God."

The two accepted Lin Yinzhou's bestowed name without any change in expression.

Lin Yinzhou nodded slightly, gesturing for the two to come behind him.

After a while, the original "scepter" girl had also been transformed. Lin Yinzhou enlightened her again and gave her the name "Beiming".

As for the other 1313 "scepter" girls, sorry, they can only choose their own names.

The group of "scepter" girls had no objections. Taking Beiming's name as a reference, they all chose names for themselves using the surnames of East, South, West, and North, and registered with the "Earth Balance Division" staff who had been waiting for a long time.

After doing all this, Lin Yinzhou asked Lao Jing to find a place in "Luofu" to settle them down temporarily.

After a moment's consideration, Jing Yuan simply arranged for the group of "scepter" girls to stay in the separate cave where Morana and the others were.

After watching Ehuang and Nüying lead a group of "scepter" girls onto the starship, Lin Yinzhou also showed some signs of fatigue.

Seeing this, Jing Yuan instantly understood.

"Your Excellency has been working tirelessly for several days on matters concerning the clan; you should take a rest. How about I have someone escort you back?"

"Alright."

Lin Yinzhou readily agreed.

Afterwards, he led Xingxiao onto the star raft summoned by Lao Jing and returned to Changle Tianyuheng Villa.

............

After watching the star raft disappear into the distance, Fei Xiao suddenly spoke.

"Who... exactly is he?"

She had asked this question more than once before during the "Heavenly Alliance," but had never received an answer.

This time too.

Huaiyan stroked his white beard in silence, while Jingyuan sighed and said with a hint of helplessness.

"I don't know."

“““…”””

No one spoke, and the atmosphere fell silent once again.

After a long while, Huaiyan suddenly smiled and said.

"Who he is is not important; what matters is his attitude toward the Immortal Ship."

As he spoke, Huaiyan looked at Jingyuan and said, "Jingyuan, you did a very good job on this matter."

Jing Yuan shook his head slightly, "I was just doing my duty, it's nothing."

"It is already not easy to do one's job well."
