Starting with the Herrscher, mowing down enemies without equal.

The morning sunlight shone through the sheer curtains. Vienna and Los Angeles in North America are about 9 hours apart, and little Anna, unusually, slept until 9 a.m. today!

She sat in the center of the soft, large bed, her long, smooth hair slightly messy, her pinkish-purple eyes half-closed, lost in thought for several minutes before she seemed to finally start thinking.

A moment later, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, habitually picked up her phone, and walked into the living room with her bare, white feet.

The mother was sitting elegantly on the sofa, flipping through a magazine. Hearing the sound, she looked up and her gaze fell on her daughter. Her eyes held a mixture of helplessness and amusement.

However, the father sitting on the other side had a rather unfriendly expression; he had never seen his daughter so unladylike at home.

"At home, you should dress up a bit. You're a grown woman now. What if your blind date laughs at you?"

Anna was reminded by her mother's gentle tone that she had been staying at home for almost a year since she quit her job.

They can't just stay at home all day, sponging off their parents and living off rent in the future.

"Anna!"

The mother's voice rose a little.

"Don't worry, I've met that young man before. He's from the Apocalypse family. His looks and abilities are absolutely impeccable. Go and talk to him; you might just take a liking to him."

"Don't feel guilty, our Shaniat family is no worse than theirs."

Anna didn't reply. She seemed to remember something, found the chat group on her phone, and scrolled up the chat history.

[Future Guardians - Destiny]

North America 12:13

Kiana: "Help! Seven consecutive losses! Is this Wendy really that strong?"

Kiana: "Is anyone in North America? I need your help urgently!"

Xilin: "Where is An Yu?"

North America 12:30

Kiana: "Eight consecutive losses... I refuse to believe it, I'll call Bronya over and give it a try."

Sirin: "@Kiana, where's that traitor An Yu?"

North America 12:41

Kiana: "...That damn An Yu! He must have feelings for Bronya, sob sob, and Bronya too, she promised to make me stand out, but she ended up teaming up with An Yu."

A few minutes later, all the news was Kiana complaining that An Yu was ruthless, winning 48 consecutive points and sending Wendy and Alicia home in anger.

And finally, a screenshot of An Yu and Bronya high-fiving, her fingers slightly parted; zoom in on the image.

Anna watched, a smile unconsciously appearing on her face, her dimples faintly visible, and her eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight.

"Anna!" So

Her father's stern gaze pulled her from her reverie. Anna thought for a moment; she did indeed look...too sloppy.

"I'm going to North America." (Group)

Anna went back inside and closed the door, recalling everything from her dream, and then felt she had been too impulsive.

After all, it was just a dream, but it really felt like a long time had passed. The two of them squeezed into that small rented room. An Yu was the first to support the family. She could do what she liked and didn't have to care about her image or other people's opinions.

She had to go and see, right? Well, she was just going to take a look. When people asked, she said she was going to see Kiana!

Yes, that's right, she went to find Kiana.

"Anna Schariac!!! Have you forgotten what happened at noon today?"

what's up?

Anna finished dressing, and after a moment of confusion, asked, "What's wrong? I wasn't fully awake."

"Go to the little restaurant next to Losweather's flower shop; your blind date for today is there."

The father forcibly suppressed his dissatisfaction and, in an almost declarative tone, told his confused daughter what tasks she had for the day.

"Oh……"

Anna subconsciously pursed her fair fingers, a faint smile reappearing on her lips. She remembered the scene of running away from the wedding in her dream, but this time when she called out to An Yu, she couldn't hear the voice saying "I'm here."

"Don't go!"

She bravely and loudly responded!

"I'm going to North America."

"Stop being playful! You are the eldest daughter of the Shaniat family! You are responsible for what happened today..."

boom!

Before she could finish speaking, Anna had already picked up her bag, ran to the door with a smile, waved goodbye, and then closed the door.

"Goodbye, Mom and Dad~ I'll bring you some local specialties when I come back."

She looks like her dad is really angry, but she's been obedient for over 20 years, so she'll let herself be a little willful now.

…………

Compared to those people over there who sleep until they naturally wake up, here people even get their beauty sleep and sleep until late at night.

Alicia lay limp on the bed. She was awake, no longer sleepy, but just didn't want to move.

Until the phone started ringing with a message.

She then remembered that she had applied to return to the team.

Golden Courtyard (13)

1 a.m. in China

Kevin: "No, man, I woke up in the middle of the night because I was so angry!"

Kevin: "What makes him so great?!"

Qianjie: "Fool!"

Kevin: "And you, Qianjie, we're on the same side!"

Qianjie: "Ridiculous, I didn't feel like you were all on my side in the dream."

Moreover, even if he were to truly immerse himself in the world of his dream, he had spent six or seven years with those two children, An Yu and Anna.

Alicia: "..."

The group suddenly fell silent. After all, everyone knew who An Yu's younger brother was. Things in dreams couldn't withstand close scrutiny, but Alicia seemed to be very possessive.

However, in Anna's language, in a pre-civilization era without surnames, they clearly sounded more like siblings.

Alicia: "What are your thoughts on the fact that Herrschers are now appearing in pairs? @Mebius @Vilvie @..."

She had just joined the group and didn't have permission to @ everyone, so she patiently clicked on each one. 6※ˉ“≯∶=∽〔,

Aponia: "Exhausted cat emoji.jpg"

What else is there to say? We've already lost Tianhu Ju again. She trusted the precepts too much, and Qianjie trusted his past friends too much.

Möbius: "I thought something serious had happened; my phone was ringing in the middle of the night."

Möbius: "It's the same thing again, that special gene segment came into play."

Möbius: "Perhaps the vassals in the dream are the true heralds. After all, in the beginning, An Yu was just the End, and didn't have so many identities."

Alicia: "Then why did it turn out like this?"

Möbius: "Little bear shrugs.jpg"

Möbius: "Pheromone has been proven to exist, and so has the consciousness space. We are linked together because of that failed fate, and that's why we have this strange dream."

Möbius: "Why can't you team up with An Yu again? It's a genetic inheritance passed down for countless generations, randomly arranged and combined, who knows what it will ultimately look like?"

Möbius: "Go to sleep, go to sleep. I've turned on Do Not Disturb. Don't fuss over this all day."

That's because you're really dreaming! Alicia was getting a little crazy!

Moreover, in her dreams, she seemed to be gradually losing that omnipotent power.

P.S. When I scheduled this chapter, exactly one week had passed. I was seventh on the update ranking, which is pretty stable!

By the way, I'd like to ask for your monthly votes, although I don't really know what they're for.

Volume 1: Chapter 115, Section 114: Alicia - Evolution

When Alicia went out, there were already several people sitting in the living room, most of whom were An Yu's seniors.

"Is Xiaoyu awake?"

"Oh dear, why do you always talk about Xiaoyu? You've finally come all the way to North America, why don't you do something fun for yourself?"

Planck played the violin skillfully, the sound lingering and tender, making Kiana, who was standing beside him, seem thoughtful.

"Mainly... there are some things I can't figure out." Yue

Alicia rubbed her temples, looking somewhat troubled: "Xiaoyu is smarter..." Fei

Before she could finish speaking, Alicia suddenly fell silent, as if she had thought of something.

The people in the living room were smiling faintly. Kiana blinked her big eyes, not understanding what everyone was laughing at, but she smiled along.

"Why don't you tell us about some of your problems?" Planck put down his violin, smiled, and rested his cheek on the back of his hand, his fingertips lightly touching his cheek, appearing kind and easygoing.

Kiana carefully took the violin from him, intending to try it out secretly.

"There's just one thing I don't understand: efficiency often comes with ruthlessness, but ruthlessness..."

Alicia's expression was very complicated. Perhaps it was because of the recurring dreams, she now found it difficult to even immerse herself in the story from a first-person perspective. She was always in the player's viewpoint, but it wasn't entirely the player's time.

Being indecisive and hesitant is really torturing yourself.

"Wolf culture, huh?"

Planck pondered for a moment. As Einstein's teacher and cousin of the most famous psychologist, she had her own understanding of this.

"So, do you think a world where every effort is rewarded should be ruthless or warm?"

Her smile was gentle.

Without hesitation, Alicia replied, "It must be warm."

Planck pursed his lips. "You're quite the dreamer."

“Not wrong.” She smiled slightly, toning down her playful tone a bit: “But reality is reality precisely because there are differences between people—talent, opportunity, resources.”

"Often, most people's small efforts don't deserve the rewards, and often, most people's large efforts go unrewarded." (Collection)

"Both are acts of giving, but because the results are the same, they are often confused." - So

"You believe that efficiency leads to ruthlessness, but often efficiency kills progress, and no one will try to innovate and bring themselves down."

"But there are always people who are willing to eat instant noodles and pickled vegetables for their ideals."

Planck extended his hand, gesturing for her to sit closer. Alicia hesitated for a moment, then went and sat down beside him.

"I'm saying all this just to tell you that efficiency and ruthlessness are not mutually exclusive."

"It's just that in the spiral of social systems, some people try to abandon emotions in exchange for extreme efficiency."

"Ultimately, this is a systemic problem."

Ultimately, society is made up of people, and everything we have now is part of humanity's exploration of society. This process is neither always positive and progressive, nor is it always downward.

Just like human history, this process will be a spiral upward, and it may even go for hundreds of years without progress, or an innovation may lead to a decline.

Alicia shook her head; she didn't understand. Lu

She simply asked with anticipation, "Is there a system that can make everyone happy, where every effort is rewarded?"

Planck's smile was somewhat subtle: "Perhaps there is, but I can't think of any specific form at the moment."

"Perhaps as humanity explores society and constantly seeks out rules, this system will one day in the future."

Alicia's eyes remained blank, but she briefly recalled her past dreams. However, the trials of reality and dreams had worn her down.

Are you interested in studying social psychology with me for a while?

Planck, with his light green hair, reached out his hand, and Alicia hesitated for a moment.

The green-haired professor is a good person, but: "I came here with Xiaoyu."

What if An Yu goes home early?
