Collapse, I save everything alone

Mingyu replied.

"What does this mean...?"

Xilin obviously didn't understand.

Mingyu did not answer immediately, but just looked into the distance.

There, a white-haired man holding the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire appeared.

Kevin Kaslana.

Mingyu said softly:

"I have used the Feather Dust to project the future we are about to experience into the dream. This way, you can hone your power through [actual combat] with Kevin."

In a sense, it can probably be considered a "memory battlefield" within the brain.

"future……"

Xilin chewed over these words again and again, seeming to realize something.

The reason why he was able to find Seer in that vast quantum ocean, and the reason why he was able to easily find survivors on the ruins of the city...

She looked at Mingyu:

"Well, Mingyu, before you..."

"Xilin, I'm glad you understand."

Mingyu smiled and then said:

"Come on, let's have a real fight with Kevin. Only in this way can we grow the fastest."

"……it is good."

The girl nodded.

"In this spiritual world, you can repeat the battle with Kevin endlessly. It doesn't matter if you get defeated. Just familiarize yourself with your own powers one by one."

No matter how long time passes in the spiritual space, it is nothing but a fleeting dream. When they wake up, not much time will have passed in reality.

——He also figured out this technique after spending time in the world bubble.

For Xilin now, all she needs is to accumulate experience, so it is feasible to use this method to quickly "upgrade" her.

"Then let's get started."

"Well, anyway... let's start with the power of Thunder."

Mingyu groaned.

In terms of helping Xilin become familiar with power, he can still act as a teacher.

In addition to the power of thunder, the abilities of the Key of God and the Herrscher also have many similarities, and he can give Xilin some guidance.

As for the power of erosion...well, let's call Ling and Feiyumaru out to help teach Xilin.

The result of the battle was naturally no surprise, Xilin was easily defeated by Kevin again and again.

However, amidst her continuous failures, she did begin to master the techniques of using her own powers.

Mingyu patiently observed Xilin and Kevin's simulated battle from the sidelines, and gave corresponding body types.

When the number of repetitions reached three digits, the battle was finally not one-sided.

Xilin, who has begun to be able to use her power freely, is now able to engage in a certain degree of offense and defense with Kevin.

When the number of repetitions reached four digits, Xilin had already achieved the result of wrestling with Kevin for more than ten minutes.

..............................

Above the bright moon.

A man was sitting here alone.

He looked at the earth being transformed, his face calm.

As for how to carry out the [Stigmata Plan] at this moment when the end is approaching, the Fire Moth had already discussed it many times fifty thousand years ago.

There are as many as sixteen versions of the form and content of the "Stigmata Plan" proposed by Mebius alone.

What he is working on now is the most original and initial first version of the [Stigmata Plan].

Pure natural selection forces humans to evolve through harsh environments.

After being locked up in the Quantum Sea by his best friend, he has been thinking about whether he can implement the [Stigmata Plan] in a gentler way so as not to harm too many humans.

But unfortunately, after he was rescued from the Quantum Sea by the followers of the World Serpent, there was little time left before the end of the world.

The Gray Snakes, who have been exploring various possibilities for the Stigmata Project, have also failed to confirm the feasibility of other versions of the plan.

After his first meeting with the leader of Anti-Entropy, he finally decided to launch the Stigmata Project on the moon.

No matter which version of the [Stigmata Plan], the transformation of the world is a necessary step.

Only by transforming the entire Earth into a world where only a few beings such as the Stigma Awakeners and Herrschers can survive, can we escape His detection when the End truly comes.

He has deliberately slowed down the transformation process, and the Houkai energy radiating to the earth from the moon will only mainly affect half of the world.

It takes a total of twenty-four hours from the launch of the Stigmata Project to the completion of the first phase of environmental transformation.

The people of this generation still have a chance to challenge him and stop him.

——He hoped from the bottom of his heart that this plan would not be activated, but at the moment of temporary doomsday, he still did not see that the people of this generation could come up with a plan to survive the end of the world.

Therefore, he is the only one who can act on behalf of the End, seize the authority of the End, and start the [Stigma Project].

He has no choice.

This was the worst plan, and nearly 90% of humanity would die within 24 hours, but he had no choice.

Preserving some new humans is much better than "total annihilation" in any case.

Come and stop me if you can.

And if he fails to do so, let him bear the crime of [destroying the world].

"..."

The white-haired man who was lost in thought heard the footsteps.

——It was the sound of two people’s footsteps.

He raised his head slightly and saw two unfamiliar figures appearing on the desolate land in front of him.

One...a young man who looks like he is from Shenzhou, and the other is a girl with purple hair.

His intuition as a warrior made him feel that these two people were much stronger than the leader of the Anti-Entropy, the Ruler of Reason.

Very good, that's good.

Kevin stood up and picked up the Holy Fire Judgment standing beside him.

An excessively powerful force was poured into the Key of Destruction, causing its appearance to change drastically, becoming more ominous and emitting an extremely dangerous aura.

【Heavenly Fire·Destruction】.

Even though the open flame had not yet been ignited, the temperature around Kevin had already risen to an unimaginable level, causing a heat wave that spread out from him.

The huge heat wave brought up the smoke and dust on the moon, which rolled forward like a sandstorm, towards Mingyu and Xilin.

The girl raised her hand and controlled the wind, changing the direction of the sandstorm so that it would not blow onto the two of them.

Soon, the two came to a place closer to Kevin.

"…You are the challengers."

He said calmly.

"Kevin Kaslana...we are here to stop you."

Mingyu groaned.

"…I am just Kevin. Kaslana has no meaning to me anymore."

The white-haired man shook his head calmly.

His eyes fell on Xilin:

"You have seized all the power."

He was a veteran of the battlefield and had sufficient understanding of all the Herrschers. After stealing the power of the end, he could also feel Xilin's current state.

"If I don't do this, I won't be able to get close to you."

Mingyu said in a low voice.

"..."

Kevin closed his eyes.

He was able to wield the power of the end because his abnormally strong [Chimaera] physique was able to forcibly bear the power of the end.

But this does not mean that he has become the [Rule of the End]. After all, he is just an agent who steals fire.

Even at this moment, the power of the End was burning his body, but he relied on the super-mutation factor of recovery to maintain a dynamic balance and forcibly enslaved those forces.

If he did not restrain himself, the power from the End would escape from his body and return to the body of the sleeping [Herrser of the End].

But... the girl in front of him is different from him.

She had not undergone Mobius's transformation experiment, but had inherited all the powers of the Herrscher simply by virtue of her talent.

This talent is just like the collapsed [Son of God].

...If the World Snake could have discovered such talents earlier, perhaps the future of the world would have been greatly rewritten.

Unfortunately, there is no if in this world, at least, not for him.

Then Kevin looked at Mingyu again.

Compared to Xilin, who has integrated the powers of all the Herrschers, Mingyu gives him a more bizarre feeling.

His power doesn't seem to come entirely from Honkai energy.

"You are not from this world."

Kevin whispered.

The power from the end allowed him to identify Mingyu's identity.

"I don't really belong here, but... that doesn't stop me from saving this world."

Mingyu responded with a smile.

“…I wish you success.”

Kevin said calmly.

This sentence comes from the heart.

He longed for a defeat, hoping that someone could stop him from carrying out the [Stigmata Plan].

But he also had no intention of giving in. Facing this group of challengers, giving it his all was what he should do.

Then Kevin raised the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire.

——Skyfire, unsheathed.

The zeroth rated power of the Seventh Divine Key was his greeting to the two challengers.

Mingyu took a step forward and stood in front of Xilin.

Relying on the absolute defense of the [Unlimited Technique] he deployed, he blocked the flames approaching the two of them.

Dazzling flames exploded in the area close at hand, enveloping the two of them, but not harming them at all.

——Of course, for Kevin, who already possesses the power of the end, this layer of space barrier is not an unbreakable defense.

The powers of the Herrscher of the Void and the Herrscher of Constraint can both interfere with the defense to a certain extent, so Kevin can naturally break through them easily.

"..."

Sure enough, after noticing the strange technique used by Mingyu, Kevin adjusted his strength slightly and swung out the second sword of Heavenly Fire.
