Starting with the Herrscher, mowing down enemies without equal.

Instead, there is a kind of... more even, or rather, a prosperity that has had some desires forcibly suppressed... My older sister is starting to bash the rich again?

In response, An Yu directly approached a passerby and quickly learned about the other person's experiences over the years.

The world is indeed different now.

Alicia successfully obtained the right to distribute the property... or more accurately, the goddess established new rules.

No one could understand how Alicia acquired this knowledge and courage during her journey around the world.

Searching through the vague impressions of social change in the memories of passersby and official propaganda, An Yu tried to piece together the whole picture.

[Legislative power, military force, and her own name.]

An Yu had no way of knowing the specific details of the process; after all, you can't expect an ordinary citizen to know any core inside information.

This time, however, Alicia didn't completely eradicate all aristocratic capital; she changed the course of her Noah's Ark.

[A fleeting memory flashed through the minds of citizens: during the reforms, taxes on the wealthy were once raised to 90%.]

Honestly, An Yu didn't understand why this policy could be implemented, nor did she know how many people died in the process, but thanks to the selfless dedication of these wealthy and noble people, human civilization did indeed achieve a major industrial breakthrough in a very short period of time.

"She wouldn't want to be a saintly king, would she...?"

An Yu muttered to herself.

Ironically, once Alicia truly learned the knowledge and sat in that position, she felt quite secure, and was even able to maintain a very delicate balance.

Because her power comes from the nobility within her heart, she must not allow herself to fall into depravity, otherwise she will lose this power to balance the world and be torn to shreds by the counterattack of others.

"How arrogant."

Of course, An Yu knew that Alicia's exploration of the system was not perfect and could not be accomplished overnight, although she had always been lucky.

Under this rudimentary and far from perfect system, a highly efficient and incorruptible organization did not emerge; however, the average moral standard of this organization was indeed forcibly raised to an unprecedented level.

Fortunately, there are a few scientists in this era who can lead the development of the times. They are selfless... have few selfish desires... and have few selfish desires most of the time.

An Yu stood by the roadside, looking at the huge advertising screen next to her. Alicia occupied the center position, her smile still perfect, while Aponia and Kevin's figures were hidden behind her.

"Alicia has too many advantages: age advantage and initial strength."

We're all grown up now. Alicia was able to start planning years in advance, and Kevin and Aponia couldn't compete with her even if they wanted to.

“However…” He keenly noticed a detail: “The exploration and radical reform of this system seem to have stopped a few years ago.”

It's clear that once you reach a certain level, it becomes increasingly difficult to explore further.

8. "As the younger brother, I should definitely answer my older sister's questions."

2 An Yu smiled and told her to find something for her to do so that Alicia wouldn't overthink things all day.

"Let's start with some chaos events, but the scale can't be too big, so that no one gets suspicious."

Moreover, An Yu doesn't need to worry too much right now, because the Herrscher is only on the verge of death, and he still has at least one more chance to escape through the flames.

An Yu had to admit one thing: her abilities had been significantly weakened.

Perhaps Alicia's current actions seem like trial and error, even absurd, but she seems to be genuinely on this path.

[Her Noah's Ark seemed to have inadvertently conformed to some kind of pattern, to the point that the power levels of the Herrschers were reduced to varying degrees.]

[As for the fact that the wealthy are taxed up to 90% and subject to various strict laws, won't that cause chaos?]

[It seems unlikely at the moment, after all, Alicia is too strong. Although she abandoned Aponia, it was still too unconventional for her to display her full strength in the early stages.]

[And An Yu's biggest potential breakthrough lies in her initial skill.]

[Those who understand the laws of knowledge can freely acquire information, even their own. They can also, in a united atmosphere, gradually guide others, leading them to genuinely change themselves.]

An Yu immediately identified herself.

[It wasn't hypnosis; it was just that Himeko's words about the Honkai being watched over them in the previous level made An Yu somewhat suspicious.]

[However, the ability to discern rules seemed unrelated to inspiration, but he still managed to find the communication with the Cocoon, which An Yu described as the shape of a door.]

Volume 1: Chapter 172 (170) The Girl Who Can't Refuse

"Another case of collapse."

Desdobia muttered to herself as she set foot alone on this foreign land that had just experienced trauma.

In principle, a standard combat team should consist of three people. The three-person system can provide mutual support in both tactical coordination and mission execution, making it more reliable.

However, as a newly recruited fusion warrior, she does not yet have a fixed regular squad. Moreover, using a fusion warrior to deal with such a small-scale Honkai remnant is really a waste of her talents.

"A Temple-class Honkai Beast, easy." Z

The petite girl smiled confidently and brightly, as if she were facing not a terrifying monster, but a normal outing, after all, everyone was on this Noah's Ark.

"I can bring some snacks back for Amo, and I think Alicia will too, as well as Sakura and Qianjie..."

Desdovia recounted the important companions among the Flame-Chasing Moths, her heart always filled with this simple wish—that her friends be happy, that she could do everything well, and then… not be disliked by everyone.

Just as she was silently calculating her gift list, a deafening roar came from the street ahead! A Honkai Beast, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, shattered skyscrapers, sending dust billowing as the massive beast rampaged through the air.

"Hmph, a piece of cake."

Desdovia's eyes narrowed, and her powerful telekinetic energy erupted instantly, like an invisible giant hand pressing the massive Honkai Beast to the ground!

For the sake of looking cool, Desdovia appeared in front of the Honkai Beast like a ghost, smashed it to pieces with a heavy punch, and waved her hand in a cool manner like a Kamen Rider.

She mimicked the gesture of a tokusatsu hero from her memories, waved her hand casually, turned to the boy behind her who seemed to have been caught in the crossfire, and confidently looked back.

"Are you alright, young man?" Seven

"Thank you?"

An Yu was momentarily confused. Did a collapse case of this scale really require Daisy Dobiya's intervention? After all, she was considered a hidden trump card in the previous level.

Or perhaps Desmond is no longer... as important.

"You're welcome. This is a hero's duty."

Desdobia straightened her back, trying to sound mature and reliable.

The boy's lack of excitement or lingering fear, as she had expected, made her feel slightly embarrassed.

This rhetoric and demeanor was taught to them by Alicia, who said it would make ordinary people who were traumatized by the disaster feel close to and trust them.

An Yu gazed quietly at the distant ruins, her experience points slowly accumulating—not many, just enough for level 4, 120 points.

Moreover, he discovered that as time went on, characters like Desdobia, who were initially useless, had now become boss cards.

"Don't be sad, young man, disasters always pass."

Suddenly a hand landed on his head. The original drawing was probably based on one of Mebius's discarded designs, so much so that Desdobia, who wasn't very tall, tiptoed and rubbed his head, trying to make a soothing gesture.

Desdovia, a girl whose people-pleasing personality wasn't very obvious, pondered the First Laboratory's judgment, remained silent for a long time, and then turned her head.

"What do I do next?"

Desdovia: ...?

You're asking me? Are you asking me, someone who constantly repeats a bunch of troublesome instructions, whose most outrageous act was being egged on by Alicia, and who's used to waiting for orders?

But she was indeed a meticulous person. Perhaps it stemmed from her inner sensitivity and delicacy. She could always sense the unspoken needs of others. Looking at the boy's confused yet expectant eyes, an idea popped into her head.

"Do you... want to join the Firemoth?" she asked tentatively, her voice soft.

An Yu immediately seized the opportunity, asking in an almost pleading tone, "Can I stay with you for a while?"

"Ah!" Desdobia was probably encountering such a request for the first time, and she was a little at a loss: "This, this is a little difficult."

An Yu thought to himself: Okay, he had almost mentally rehearsed the next scenario—his actions were likely to be too presumptuous, and Desdobia, as a mental fusion warrior, would probably conduct a mental examination on him out of duty or suspicion.

Then he could use his power to guide her consciousness to directly clash with the cocoon of the core source, thus easily stealing the initial resources needed for activation...

"Then...then you have to behave well during this time, and I'll help you find a job as soon as possible." Desdobia's voice trembled as if she had made a major decision.

An Yu: ...

Wait a minute, this isn't the script he envisioned! What's going on here? There's this inexplicable feeling of having a hypnotic app and then discovering that no girl in this world would refuse it.

You agree?

"In fact, after a disaster, the government usually guides people to start a new life."

An Yu explained softly, hoping the kind-hearted girl would realize how unreasonable her request was.

“I know, but…” Desmondia pursed her lips, “you’ll feel resentful, won’t you?”

An Yu was taken aback.

"Living an ordinary life, powerless to resist disasters, and forced to passively accept whatever comes your way... You must be very unwilling to accept that, right?"

She spoke softly again, as if she were expressing An Yu's inner disappointment.

An Yu: ...

What is she imagining?

Desdovia was quiet for a moment, then reached out her hand, her cute little face full of an encouraging smile.

"Sometimes, all it takes is for someone to give you a helping hand, and you can save yourself years or even decades of walking."

Let's just consider it as ordinary people showing each other compassion.

After hesitating for a long time, An Yu finally asked with difficulty, "Why, why?"

An Yu was now frantically thinking about whether the other person was faking it, or if they were just messing around. No, girl, why would you care so much about other people's feelings?

If Alicia knew about your personality, she would drag you into doing a whole bunch of shameful things, and might even publicly reveal other people's embarrassing pasts on the radio. You probably wouldn't be able to resist their pleas and would just agree.

I don't think you're a bad person.

Desdobia offered a reason so simple it was almost intuitive.

An Yu opened her mouth, but all her calculations and contingency plans stalled in the face of this pure kindness. In the end, she could only squeeze out two dry words: "Thank you."

For the first time, he felt that his words were so pale and powerless, completely unable to keep up with the other person's thought process.

Just as he could never understand Alicia, you simply have no idea whether it's genuine or some more complex performance.

And so, you successfully infiltrated the Moths of Fire.

An Yu watched as Desmond Dobby packed the gifts, carefully dressed them, and distributed them to everyone.

[Then, tirelessly delivering the supplies to everyone, I returned home to ponder An Yu's problem, thinking about how to help her, and finally, it was time for me to go to sleep.]

[By the way, An Yu guessed correctly; Desdovia was indeed coaxed by Alicia and recounted Kosmo's glorious achievements on the Firemoth's loudspeaker.]

The reason was simply that Alicia told her: This way you can get closer to your team members faster!

An Yu wasn't sure about the logic behind it, because the effect was indeed achieved in a bizarre way. If Kosmo and Desdovia hadn't both become fusion warriors, the two would still be in the same team, helping each other.

An Yu couldn't understand this at all.

[He ultimately categorized Kosmo's personality as either a repressed pervert or a deeply immature teenager; otherwise, it's hard to explain why someone, after learning that all their shameful past deeds had been publicly revealed, would simply lock themselves in their room and feel ashamed for an afternoon, and never mention the matter or their past embarrassing experiences again.]

[Furthermore, the favorability rating really does increase by +10]

Volume 1: Chapter 173-171 The Ever-Changing Dream

In An Yu's view, Desdobia's tolerance and inability to refuse others stemmed from her immense power; the strong naturally have the leeway to display benevolence.

Until An Yu met Desdovia's neighbor, Hua.

A character who appears in a loving and harmonious family.

"So, you're actually an actuary?"

Hua confirmed that her voice was steady, and although she was very young, it had a reliable quality.

An Yu was silent for a moment, then nodded. Although he did look young, impersonating someone else was not too difficult for him.

Hua sighed with emotion as the seemingly dull girl patted An Yu on the shoulder in encouragement.

“Coincidentally, I know two friends who really need someone like you over there.”

"Perhaps you can shine there."

"Another kind-hearted girl," An Yu nodded blankly. He could say with certainty that something was wrong with this game level.

The course of Noah's Ark was never meant to represent any dream or game, but it was influenced by Noah's Ark, so the problem should lie with him.

Yes, the person with problems in this world is An Yu.

After a brief farewell to Hua, An Yu sat on the cold emergency staircase for a long time, the setting sun casting a long, thin shadow through the small window.
