Weird collapse, chasing husband crematorium

Call duration: 01:45.

Mei: "If I don't speak, you're really going to say nothing, right?"

Li Mo: "I can't rule out the possibility that Guiyi called me, but answering the call is the biggest concession I can make."

Mei: "Alright, it's good to be cautious. I have something to remind you. That ghost town has experienced abnormal Honkai energy fluctuations, exceeding 2000 HW. There's a high possibility that a Herrscher has emerged. If you see a Herrscher, don't act rashly. While the Strangeness can keep you alive, the Herrscher is equally powerful. If you're not careful, you could be controlled to death or killed instantly."

Li Mo: "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Mei: "I've already sent a team of Fire Moth soldiers to your location to gather intelligence. Once I've formulated a comprehensive plan, I'll begin to eliminate the Third Herrscher."

Li Mo: "Then you can let them go back. The Herrisher of Thunder is dead."

Mei: "...You did it? How did you do it?"

Mei's tone was the same as Ling's, but she wasn't as surprised.

Li Mo, like a puppet, repeated what he had said to Ling to Mei on the phone: "Run over and cut her neck with your hands."

Mei: “…”

Call time: 03:00.

Mei on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time and didn't speak for a long time.

Li Mo did not make any noise to disturb him and waited silently.

Mei: "It seems I underestimated your combat power. I originally thought that your combat power came largely from the strange primordial laws and the demonic sword left by Beichen. After all... the reason most ghosts are so difficult to deal with is because of their immortality, coupled with the law of instant death when triggered. Their physical strength varies, but the force of their destructive efforts is difficult to control, and is easily offset by the laws of reactivation."

"You are different from other ghosts. I don't think this is an ability you should have. Do you... understand me?"

Chapter 65 The End

Li Mo was silent for a few seconds, then truthfully explained his current state: "Each restart will significantly increase the level of contamination on my body, as well as my abilities in all aspects. The price is the loss of most of my human cognition. I can't restart too many times, at most four. If I die more than three times, I will lose my self-awareness forever and become a ghost that executes the laws. Now that I'm in a triple-death state, killing the Herrscher is not a difficult task for me."

Mei: "Whether you can kill the Herrscher or not is irrelevant now. Your situation is clearly illogical. You yourself said that each reboot significantly increases your physical qualities and abilities. From your description, killing the Herrscher in your triple-death state would be as easy as stepping on an ant."

"But other ghosts don't have this ability. No matter how many times they're restarted, their patterns and physical qualities won't change."

"So... have you ever thought about why you are different from them? What is the reason?"

Mei desperately wanted to know the answer. Only by figuring out the reason could she continue to delve deeper.

Just like solving a math problem, if a definition has not been proven, then blindly pursuing it will only result in a result that seems reasonable but is actually not supported by any correct theory.

Every step needs to have a foundation, a reason, and be able to be proven.

Li Mo: “…”

Call duration: 09:00.

Li Mo was silent for a long time, standing there motionless. He had never been so confused as he was now.

In the triple-death state, the mind should be very active and sensitive, and the extreme rationality can easily guess dozens or even hundreds of possibilities, among which may be the tip of the iceberg of the truth.

But he didn't, he couldn't even think of a possibility, as if he was born without this memory template and thinking template.

Another minute passed.

The call time has reached double digits: 10:00.

"I don't know." Li Mo said calmly, without any emotion on his face and without any waves in his mind.

Mei didn't say anything on the other end of the phone. She vaguely sensed something, but chose not to tell it, but kept it in her heart.

Even if it is said out loud, it is meaningless, just like people from the future world returning to the primitive world and telling them: there is an attraction between two objects, which is proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance. When you use weapons to hunt wild beasts, it is actually the squeezing of atoms and the confrontation of forces.

What's the point?

Primitive people are still trying their best to survive, so no matter how much truth they say, it is all empty talk.

What's more... she has mentioned that illusory and vague truth several times, even if it is just a possibility.

A strange resurgence.

Distortion of the source.

Over time, pollution accumulates.

Death restarted and pollution increased sharply.

There is no difference in essence between the two.

Mei: "Come back first. We'll talk about this later. Remember to bring your Herrscher Core, the glittering gem within the Herrscher's body. You should still be able to feel the energy surge."

Li Mo: "Okay, do you have anything else to say?"

Mei: "Tsk, the way you say that makes it sound like you're sending me off."

Li Mo: "You're misinterpreting what I said. That's not what I meant."

Mei: "Did I misinterpret it? Never mind, I understand. You can't communicate with me in your current state. In short, just do as I say. There's nothing else to worry about. If there is anything else to worry about, it's just to be safe."

Li Mo: "Yeah, hanging up."

Mei: “…”

The call was hung up, and after both phones beeped, Li Mo and Mei showed different expressions.

Li Mo remained calm, Mei sighed deeply, and lay on the table with a sad face and eyes full of pity.

Let’s keep going…

Only when you move forward to the last moment will you give up.

"But it's time to prepare for my 'end', on the moon..."

Back in the laboratory, Li Mo became idle.

In the following years, apart from regular patrols to check for any missed ghosts or new ghosts that appeared, there was no more work to do.

In the fight against Honkai, Mei asked Li Mo not to contribute without her permission.

No weird interference.

Humanity and Honkai engaged in a protracted tug-of-war, with the humans suffering heavy losses in the battle.

The top leaders of various countries have united together, showing unprecedented cohesion and overall vision, regardless of you or me, to fight against the collapse together.

The effect is also very significant.

Every time the Herrscher appears, he destroys several countries and causes the deaths of countless people.

Most of the survivors became soldiers, went to the battlefield, and shed their last drop of blood for that false victory.

The United Nations, the Fire Moth, and major non-governmental organizations hold high the banner of perseverance, cheering every victory and alerting every failure and impending crisis. Everyone is diligently fulfilling their duties and working tirelessly.

The soldiers went forward one after another, fearlessly launching a death charge against the products of the Great Collapse - the Death Soldiers and the Collapse Beasts.

The researchers worked day and night, dragging their exhausted spirits and using their tenacious will to carry out intensive research on the Honkai series of weapons.

From a certain perspective, this may be the most united time in human history.

With a powerful enemy at hand, it is rare that there is no internal strife.

But... the ending has already been determined. When the end comes, it will be the day when the world collapses.

The so-called efforts pale in comparison to absolute strength, just like a pile of ants, which can be easily destroyed by a single punch from humans.

In the face of destruction, humans are nothing more than ants.

If we say that the previous twelve Herrschers all had their own ways of taking shortcuts.

Then, the battle would end, and they would have to fight head-on. No matter how hard they tried, how could they surpass the strongest person defined by Honkai energy, even with the strength boosted by Honkai energy?

Unless there is a bug in the rules, or the end is not the final pass.

But obviously, the end is the last threshold for the ascension of civilization, the end of civilization, and the end of mankind.

A few years passed by like a flash.

Except for a few special cases where Li Mo took action to understand the constraints, all other problems were successfully solved under the leadership of Mei and the Fire Moth.

The last Herrscher of Corrosion appeared on Ling. The Herrscher of Corrosion would only awaken after being killed, but Li Mo did not let this happen.

As time passed, the collapse judged that the erosion had failed, allowing the last Herrscher, who symbolized Nirvana, to appear on the moon.

Her arrival will draw down the curtain of civilization.

The divine pattern of the end unfolded, covering the universe and the galaxy, shining with a deep and mysterious golden glow.

According to Mei's plan, the brilliant human civilization was subverted at this moment.

After the Final War, there are no living people in the outside world except for the hibernation chambers on the seabed.

Li Mo went alone to the devastated moon. At a glance, he saw the broken Xuanyuan Sword, the destroyed mask, the broken pocket watch, and scattered bloody limbs...

Seeing these familiar old things, I can think of the scene on the battlefield of the End, where the heroes fought to the death until the last moment.

Unfortunately……

Their efforts were meaningless. Li Mo later spent quite a bit of time in the Fire Moth and heard different opinions from different people.

In summary, the hope of victory is slim, but at least it exists, estimated to be around 20%.

But Li Mo knew clearly that there was no possibility of victory, and the end of this civilization had already been determined.

Therefore, those who died on the battlefield of the end could have escaped and survived.

Not only did they die at the hands of the end, but they also died in the grave called hope.

But these have nothing to do with me.

Li Mo came to the desolate dark side of the moon. It was pitch black all around. The human eye could not capture anything. The light seemed to be extinguished here.

But ghosts have different vision. Li Mo does not rely on his eyes to see things.

With the help of his special vision, Li Mo quickly came to a dark and dim pit with some fresh blood remaining on it.

"As planned, here I am."

"..."

After a few seconds, a slender figure crawled out of the pit in a panic, with its exposed skin covered with wounds that were bleeding.

The blank key slightly diffused visible light, illuminating the surrounding area.

Mei's face turned pale, and she stuck out her tongue. She replied playfully, somewhat out of character: "It's so slow, but I managed to catch up before I died. The last Herrscher is indeed the Herrscher of the End. I hid from the beginning and built a defensive base. I didn't expect the aftermath of the Herrscher of the End to injure me so badly. Luckily I equipped myself with the Blank Key in advance, otherwise I would have been doomed~"

"So that's why I came here in the end."

"Ah, you are such an unromantic man. I'm about to die. Shouldn't you care about me first?"

"Since you know you're going to die, tell me what happens next as soon as possible. If you delay, something bad will happen."

"Forget it. I can't communicate with you on this matter. Although human civilization has been destroyed, the Herrscher of the End has not disappeared. I speculate that He will not leave until all living people in civilization have disappeared, and He will not leave until He kills the last person in the world. It is only a matter of time before He finds the people in the hibernation chamber."

"So you want me to kill her."

"No, no, no. The Herrscher of the End's authority comes from the Cocoon of the End, which has now descended upon this world. In the process of killing the Herrscher of the End, pollution will inevitably leak out, and the world will be contaminated along with the Cocoon of the End, which will be more harm than good. So all you have to do is find a way to control the Herrscher of the End."

"..."

Li Mo didn't answer and thought for a few seconds.

Killing the Ruler of the End was indeed not an easy task for him, unless he actively entered the Four Deaths state, at which time killing the Ruler of the End was just a piece of cake.

But the only fault tolerance is lost, which is not cost-effective.

The Herrscher of the End can be dealt with in the triple death state, but as Mei said, the process of killing Him will inevitably be accompanied by the spread of pollution over a large area.

I still can't make it through the final stage without any damage.

What’s even more terrible is... that face... The Herrscher of the End is pressing against Chong Chong’s face. If he confronts him head-on, he won’t be able to bring himself to attack him and can only passively take the beating.

Li Mo pursed his lips slightly, and his sudden and lively expression aroused the curiosity of the dying Mei.

She was very curious about what Li Mo was thinking that caused such a weak emotion to control his body's subconscious reaction.

"I will find a way to control the Ruler of the End. Is there anything else you want to tell me?" Li Mo said after he came to his senses.

Mei smacked her lips, lay back down in the pit, and looked up at the starry sky.

It’s like lying on the soft grass when I was a child, surrounded by the fresh scent of grass and moist soil.

When she opened her eyes, she was greeted by the vast expanse of the night sky. The twinkling lights of the stars, like countless small lanterns, shone brightly in the darkness.
