Bronya called out to Kiana with a look of disgust: "You're going the wrong way, you idiot Kiana."

Kiana coughed lightly, without turning around, and used her Herrscher of the Void powers to change direction.

When everyone arrived at the epicenter of the Great Collapse, they were all stunned. The once bustling city was now just a desolate wasteland, with not even ruins remaining.

Like being bombed by thousands of nuclear bombs, it was razed to the ground, leaving not a single flower or blade of grass.

On such an empty land, a woman stands, which, without suspense, leads to a massive collapse of the Herrscher.

Based on relevant records from previous civilizations, and considering the physical characteristics of the other party, as well as the special wings on their back.

“The eleventh law, the law of restraint, indeed, come.”

"constraint?!"

Everyone's mood instantly plummeted. According to records from previous civilizations, the Herrscher of Binding was almost the strongest Herrscher below the End, capable of completely restricting Honkai energy and greatly limiting energy power, just like an NPC with cheat codes.

The human body is made up of energy. If the energy within a living organism is restricted, not only will the body's organs fail, but the brain will also die on its own.

The only good news is that the other side doesn't seem to have made a move, preserving human consciousness?

Karen looked at the crowd, her face expressionless.

"Ancestor Karen?"

Kiana's voice broke the tense silence, and everyone reacted quickly.

With her white hair, blue eyes, and the face of an adult Theresa, there is no doubt that she is the Herrscher of Restraint.

"I see. So Otto used the Holy Blood to resurrect Kallen Kaslana, who sacrificed herself five hundred years ago? What an astonishing achievement! To give her the identity of a Herrscher and bring her back to life—such a bold move." A look of admiration appeared in Ain's eyes.

Could this method be replicated to bring Joyce back to her side?

"That has nothing to do with the Holy Blood?" Tesla asked, puzzled.

"I don't know either. If I had the ability to know, I wouldn't be unable to see through Otto," Ai-in answered frankly.

Walter took a deep breath, strode up to Karen, and his expression was stern.

As a representative of humanity, he naturally needs to step forward and make a communication effort for the future of humanity.

"Hello, Karen Young, a hero from five hundred years ago, now known as Wenmingli."

As Welt was introducing himself, Kallen bypassed him and came to Kiana, thoughtfully looking her up and down.

"You call."

Kiana froze for a second, not realizing that the other party was completely ignoring Welt.

The Lawyer is not wrong, but half of the people present are Lawyers.

Because of me, Kaslana?

“My name is Kiana Kaslana,” Kiana replied sincerely.

Walter's face darkened, and he silently placed his hands behind his back while suspended in mid-air.

"You've come to Rimu?" Karen continued to press.

"Unravel the truth behind the Great Collapse outbreak, and find hope of killing the Herrscher of the End!" Welt seized the opportunity, and the next second he collapsed to the ground as if his skeleton had lost its support.

Karen's voice was icy: "I didn't ask you."

The son was so rude to everyone present that he didn't even have the right to interrupt if they weren't family members.

Is Kiana the only special one?

Communication is difficult; the Law Enforcer can only rely on Kiana's individual performance.

"The previous one was correct with Mr. Walter. We need to uncover the truth behind the Great Collapse and find a way to ensure the world's survival."

Kiana revised Walter's wording, subconsciously not considering Su Xin as an enemy.

"Well, what if I told you that Su Xin, the Herrscher of the End, would kill everyone in the world indiscriminately? What would you choose then? Others' answers are meaningless; I want to hear yours. Kiana, what will you choose?"

Kallen moved close to Kiana, their noses almost touching, and Kallen clearly sensed Kiana's disordered, rapid, and warm breathing.

"I"

"Kill him, the only way for us humans to survive!" Welt activated his Herrscher form, forcibly maintaining his stance.

Karen didn't press the matter further, but a hint of disappointment was hard to hide in her eyes.

He was heartbroken and cried desperately, wanting to protect people, but they did everything they could to see him as their greatest enemy, unleashing all their malice upon him.

In Chinese, it's called being ungrateful.

But human nature is inherently selfish. Even if someone was once a benefactor, they will turn against each other if their positions are different.

No matter how fancy the words or how noble the reasons, they cannot hide the fact that people are only thinking about how to greedily seize their positions and interests.

One person's freedom must be built upon the trampling of the freedom of others.

In order to survive, others have to die in their place—that's what they call fairness.

Perhaps they were unaware of everything Su Xin had done for them, but ignorance is a sin in itself.

Or perhaps they actually know, but deep down they don't approve of everything Su Xin has done, believing that he has already changed.

A hero of a former civilization becomes the most villainous villain of the present civilization.

"You want to kill Su Xin?"

"Because he wants to destroy the world."

"Does he want to destroy the world?"

"We know!?"

"So, you call yourself a representative of humanity, yet you are completely ignorant of the ins and outs of the matter and jump to conclusions, right? As a leader, you are undoubtedly quite incompetent, Walter Yang."

Kallen stared at Welt expressionlessly. Was she afraid to use her restraining powers again, since he remained in Herrscher mode?

Or perhaps, they are wary of his strength.

It's ridiculous that if you lack the strength, it seems you don't even have the right to communicate and negotiate.

They were killed, labeled as villains after death, and then history was embellished, making them heroes.

Self-deception.

Humans keep repeating the same mistakes.

"Would it benefit you if he destroyed the world? Why would you help someone who's a villain?"

Walter tried his best to suppress his inner turmoil and forced himself to calm down.

Karen always had an icy expression, perhaps because she had just arrived in a new era and didn't feel a sense of belonging, or perhaps because she had spent too long in the glorious previous civilization.

This caused her to feel absolutely no connection to modern civilization.

In Karen's view, Walter and others did not just stand on the shoulders of giants and then loudly boast that they had climbed to a higher level through their own strength; they surpassed the former.

"Kiana, I don't care what others think, but I want to know what you really think? You bear the marks of time left by him, so you must also have seen his past and experienced his unforgettable growth."

"Not everyone can persevere for that long, let alone an ordinary person. Over the long course of time, Su Xin has spent time with countless people, observing their life trajectories, feeling their joys and sorrows, sharing their thoughts and ideas, and witnessing their unique souls."

"We are all ordinary yet extraordinary people."

"He understands the beauty of the world and the preciousness of humanity better than anyone else. But Su Xin still chooses the path of destruction. What does that mean?"

"How do you see him? What choice do you make? Kill him or support him?"

Kallen leaned forward, giving Kiana no room to maneuver, and focused all her attention on Kiana's answer.

After hesitating for a long time, Kiana slowly offered her opinion amidst the gazes of many.

"He is a hero in every sense of the word, but I still can't guess what he's thinking now. If it were possible to completely eliminate the Honkai, I think no one would object. But the premise of killing all of humanity is something I can't agree with."

"Kaslana will never allow such a tragedy to happen. Ancestor Karen, five hundred years ago, didn't you willingly sacrifice yourself to protect your people?"

Kiana countered with a question, citing the example of Kallen, who sacrificed herself five hundred years ago while steadfastly upholding the Kaslana faith.

Karen felt as if she had a fishbone stuck in her throat, and finally let out a bitter laugh.

She did nothing wrong in protecting the people, and she is even more right in protecting Su Xin now.

Now that our positions have changed, everything is natural, and no one can criticize us.

Karen has always acted only with a clear conscience.

She was devoted to protecting the people until her death, and she remained faithful to Su Xin until her last breath.

"As expected, we can't understand each other, Kiana."

Karen turned her back and pointed to the full moon on the horizon.

"Where is he now? I'm going to find him. See you again next time, my enemy."

"I only have Kallen; Kaslana means nothing to me anymore."

"Kiana, I thought that after witnessing his struggles throughout his life, you would choose to understand and accompany him, but you chose a different path from mine."

“I won’t stop him, and he won’t stop him either, because we are all free. It doesn’t matter what choices we make, as long as we bear the consequences and weight of those choices.”

"As for who will ultimately gain true freedom, let's settle that with our fists."

Goodbye, Kiana.

Karen unfurled her wings, like a mythical daughter of the stars and moon, and set off for a distant planet, carrying with her a radiant glow.

Between those cheeks and brows, gentle calmness speaks louder than words.

Her smile is captivating, and her radiance shines through.

Tell of every day and night that God has blessed us.

A heart at peace with the world, a love pure and innocent.

The selfish elf, active on the high stage, is agile and beautiful.

The world is already destroyed, let it be destroyed.

Courage: I'll be the first to die.

Politeness: Please let all of humanity perish.

Kindness: Supporting humane, painless, and peaceful euthanasia.

Let it go: Humanity will perish, and so be it.

Calm: Wouldn't it be better if humanity went extinct?

Fairness: Every human being should perish.

Open-mindedness: It doesn't matter if humanity perishes.

Understanding: Humanity truly deserves to perish.

"Pfft, these weird ideas pop into my head. I guess I'm a bad kid after all."

Karen didn't care about the words; she was quite happy at the moment.

Because she knew she would see him again soon.

On the other hand, the people on the ground, including Anti-Entropy, looked at each other, speechless, in a heavy atmosphere.

Welt deactivated his Herrscher state, clenching his fists but never letting them loosen.

The fact that even those who uphold the laws of restraint have become enemies is undoubtedly devastating news for humanity.

To eliminate the Herrscher of Constraint, human lives must be used to replenish the energy limit of the barrier that the constraints can control. Humanity will then face the even more powerful Herrscher of the End. If a large number of combat forces are lost in the fight against the Herrscher of Constraint, there is no doubt that even if they stand up to the Herrscher of the End, they will not be able to cope.

Moreover, would anyone really be willing to sacrifice themselves?

Walter believed that even if he wanted to live, he also wanted his companions to live.

I don't want to get involved unless it's a life-or-death situation.

The situation was the same in St. Freya; no one wanted to see their companion die.

But they don't realize that this is a sign of weakness.

Su Xin surveyed everything from the moon, seated on her desolate throne, and sneered: "You cannot give up anything, that's why you cannot defeat me."
