Collapse, survive

This is an area that neither she nor Tesla has yet broken through, after all, their energy and resources have been invested in civilian applications...

Does Cocolia have such abilities?

It was unearthed from some ancient ruin, just like this Sea Abyss City.

She suddenly felt that there was yet another thing in this world that she couldn't understand, and that it was hiding too many secrets.

But there's also good news, for example—

Theresa! We've come to save you!

A powerful shout jolted Theresa, who had barely begun to struggle, into suddenly trying to break free from Fang Jie's rough treatment. "No, no, no, no, I don't want that kind of thing..."

However, Himeko can rub it but I can't?

There is no such logic in this world.

Fang Jie ignored her completely, continuing to hold her like a delicate doll, while looking at the fire falling from the sky outside Haiyuan City.

Explode instantly!

Unlike Durandal's transformation into light, this fire burned fiercely. Although its intensity was not great, its momentum was still quite high. At the very center of the explosion, everything was destroyed by the Heavenly Fire Judgment, which was in dual-gun form but only one gun was firing. The barrage cleared away a large area, as well as a small area.

There are too many, far too many.

As long as the Honkai energy rotates and the quantum ripples spread, the two monster tides seem endless.

Despite the terrifying heat that hadn't dissipated, they kept coming one after another, causing Siegfried's laughter to gradually freeze as he continued firing.

The walls of Abyss City, along with the monsters, were burned to a crisp, reddish liquid that flowed across the charred walls. It slowly solidified, radiating a dry and scorching glow.

And right above the flames, another passionate old man arrived at the scene.

Fang Jie silently released Theresa, who was clinging to him like a koala, straightened his clothes which she had chewed up, and became serious.

"Alright, stop embarrassing yourself, Theresa. Show some authority as the headmistress."

"what?"

Theresa hadn't even realized that she'd been rejected so quickly. "Wait a minute, I can still stall for time."

No, you little bear.

If it were Himeko instead, Fang Jie would be more susceptible to her charms, but even if she came, she couldn't stop him.

"Hello, Mr. Walter."

Fang Jie's explanation was reasonable, well-founded, and measured, before proceeding with the teaching materials given by Uncle Yang, which even included his methods for baiting.

"Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed time to make contact with the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance. Hopefully, we won't have to rely on war for peace talks."

"Walter? Him? Isn't he the school's history teacher?"

Theresa had no intention of leaving. With Judah's attack, she flew behind Fang Jie, her waist height almost a head taller than his, and stared at Walter in shock.

"How despicable, Yang! I know you like to change your appearance constantly, and men, women, young and old are all your personas, but to drag innocent people into this—"

Seeing her humiliating state, Theresa, not being stupid, preemptively criticized and spoke up for the history teacher at St. Freya Academy.

"..."

Are you serious?

Pushing up his glasses, Walter felt his pent-up energy and fighting spirit dissipate. His intended words of peace talks had been thwarted by Theresa, making him look quite pathetic.

I thought it was an unspoken understanding between us; I didn't even change my name.

Did you really not find anything, Theresa?

This is how I am!

"I'm here. Nice to meet you. And, do we know each other?"

Walter ignored Theresa and stared sharply at Fang Jie, whose gaze was not that of someone looking at a stranger, but rather that of an alien he had never seen before.

And, observing the 'phenomenon' that was triggered by Fang Jie merely diffusing Honkai energy and something different from Honkai energy.

Even heavenly fire couldn't completely incinerate it; the quantum shadow remained at the very center of the explosion. Tormented by the flames and intense heat, it continuously charred, deteriorated, and rotted, only to instantly regenerate. In the end, it began to draw heat from the air to develop itself, tenacious and frenzied.

It was like a nightmare.

In contrast, the Honkai Beasts were instantly reduced to charcoal and ashes in the intense heat, while the others remained alive and did not die.

Having adapted to this hellish environment, they transformed themselves into creatures capable of surviving within it. They weathered the Honkai Beast tides, were continuously wiped out, and began to expand and multiply...

This is Honkai; it is never static.

Must be stopped!

Fang Jie said earnestly, “I know you, but you don’t know me, Uncle Yang. But it doesn’t matter. The end of one adventure is the beginning of another. Let’s meet again in our time at the crossroads of our journeys. I hope that by then, everything you see will have a different look.”

Walter's pupils contracted, and the gazes from all directions became complicated. Lisser was greatly shocked, and Tesla was eager to rush over and question him—Walter, did you secretly do something when you went to another planet?

Siegfried looked over in shock: You brat!

So it was you Entropy Reversal that did it, you aliens in disguise, huh?

Fang Jie began to look forward to it just by thinking about what new memories Yang Shu would gain if he went back to synchronize with him.

.

Chapter 87 Kevin: EXE is unresponsive.

Fang Jie doesn't mind exchanging information, revealing details, or informing others.

after all.

That has nothing to do with what he wants to destroy.

He meant salvation.

—What does it matter to you if I save you?

“We have plenty of time before Kevin arrives. Ask whatever you want to know, and I will tell you what I can. You are free to interpret this as you see fit, and whatever you understand from it is up to you.”

Fang Jie was extremely easy to talk to, not just with Walter.

"So stop your little tricks. With your current power, the simulated black hole is useless against me, and even the Black Tower is helpless against my trump card."

He watched Walter approach slowly, his expression calm and smiling, like a normal visitor leaving home, his movements as gentlemanly as ever.

So you've got your black hole all ready, huh?

Uncle Yang has even written about these micro-expressions and subtle movements in his teaching materials!

"..."

Walter had no intention of asking what the Black Tower was, but Fang Jie's composure did indeed shake him.

Everyone seemed to be negotiating and avoiding violence—but he kept unleashing Honkai energy and shifting the topic to himself, sowing discord within the group.

From now on, anti-entropy and the name Walter will be subject to much scrutiny.

Tianming was just worried that he couldn't beat Fang Jie.

"Ha ha ha ha,"

Walter thought of Otto and calmed down considerably:

"Mr. Fang Jie, you are being overly cautious."

"Say it again?"

"?"

“Please repeat the first half of the sentence, sir.”

"Mr. Fang Jie?"

It felt so good, just like being addressed as "Madam" during the third month of pregnancy. Fang Jie felt even better.

“Speaking of which, I am also Uncle Yang’s student, inheriting the name ‘Walter’. Your respect for him is so great... it makes me worry about how to face him later. Why don’t you write a statement saying that you called him that on your own initiative?”

"..."

To be honest, this flurry of overly familiar punches left Walter's thoughts disjointed, but he wouldn't let his guard down too much—he was wary of scams targeting middle-aged and elderly people.

After all these years of ups and downs, it would be extremely irresponsible of him to trust people so easily again.

So Theresa, don't look at me like that!

Lisel, don't be so thoughtful!

Siegfried...

Do whatever you want, keep wandering around. Bring the potions and prepare to unleash the Heavenly Fire to cover me. I will not let your sacrifice go to waste.

as well as……

He silently wrote down the agreement, which Fang Jie carefully kept.

The sneak attack failed. We should continue to look for opportunities, and... perhaps we can really persuade him to stop through negotiations.

"Mr. Fang Jie, I won't ask what our concerns are for now. There's something more important: can we stop initiating the Great Collapse?"

The terrifying Honkai energy was so intense that just being near it caused him constant, stinging pain. The Herrscher of Reason's power was incompatible with Welt's body; his life was like a candle flickering in the wind.

"Unfortunately, no."

Fang Jie waved his hand gently, and Welt felt relieved. The intensity of Honkai energy in the surrounding space dropped to a level that made him feel comfortable. His terrifying ability to manipulate Honkai energy was evident.

"Why? For... Kevin?"

His expression was solemn.

"Kevin is only part of the reason. Ultimately, it's about making the world the way I want it to be."

Fang Jie was no longer as shy as before. Once the shield was activated, he didn't care about anyone and refused to communicate as if he had a blood deficiency.

This time he was open and honest, speaking his mind frankly and sincerely as always.

"Saving the world is a troublesome, difficult, narrow, and unforgiving thing. I have no intention of doing it for you, but I want it to be, well, more beautiful."

“Cocolia’s stupidity is the norm for humans, I mean that Cocolia.”

Fang Jie pointed to Entropy Cocolia, whose expression had become quite pleasant.

"The snake bewitched her, using the excuse of 'blowing the whistle' to awaken the humans who still harbored illusions from the beautiful dream Joyce brought them, that there was nothing to fear about the Honkai. She told them the real threat of the Honkai, and made those hesitant, cunning, calculating, and sinister human leaders understand that in the face of the Honkai, humanity has no way out."

"That makes sense, even though it makes no sense at all."

"You ultimately know nothing about the Honkai. Perhaps a huge price will be paid to awaken your dullness and numbness, to stimulate your survival instincts. So let's have another Great Honkai that accompanies the birth of a Herrscher, the kind that kills half the population first..."

"enough."

A streak of light, which had pierced through the sea of ​​beasts, swept across the sky, carrying Durandal's will: "I have always been told that if we are to save the world, the sacrifice of a few is inevitable. They call this belief 'Justice'."

She gazed at Fang Jie with a calmness that was no longer as intense as it had been at the beginning, but rather a growing resolve.

"Don't be ridiculous! What kind of justice is this! The justice I seek is not like this!"

In Destiny, Durandal embraced that philosophy, accepted the most realistic truth, and constantly honed herself, all for the sake of...

Try to change all of this!

She never believed in Otto's reasoning; she just hadn't found a better one yet. Durandal was deeply influenced by Rita.

If you really intend to unleash a massive collapse, wiping out half of the ordinary humans on the surface and causing a mass extinction of the biosphere... the girl wielding the holy sword arrives nearby immediately.

"Stop for a moment, Bianca."

Fang Jie felt a headache coming on. Was he too straightforward? Didn't he understand what peace talks meant? It was just sincere deception. Don't believe everything I say, even though I'm being honest.

Walter also took a deep breath: "This is not something to joke about."

"I'm just describing one possibility, which, among many possibilities, is gentle, friendly, and realistic enough."

Fang Jie has always adhered to the bottom line of "not bullying the weak and not killing the innocent".

However, in this birthplace where the bottom line is deeply ingrained, the way the people of Xianzhou resolve social conflicts is also through infighting, fighting among themselves, wasting the world, killing their own relatives, and causing immense suffering to the people.

Is humanity truly ready to step into that crazy galaxy?

In just a few short years—a blink of an eye for civilization—the gates of the galaxy will open to the solar system, and civilization will still have to rely on a "savior."

This world needs more heroes, it needs everyone to be more aware, it needs... people to know the fate they are about to face.
