Collapse, I save everything alone

she asked in a low voice.

This was actually a very bad thing. Dr. MEI had warned her that when she was in the Garuda state, she would destroy anything related to Honkai at all costs, whether it was an enemy or a friend.

"Well, your consciousness has declined to the extreme, and the power hidden in your body is naturally no longer suppressed, but..."

Mingyu waved his hand:

"It just so happens that the Herrscher of Consciousness has descended into your body and fought against it, which has resulted in a rather delicate balance."

In a sense, the mutual restraint between the Herrscher of Consciousness and Garuda also prevents the two from running out to the outside world and causing destruction.

"In that case...she did do a lot of good things."

Fu Hua looked at the Herrscher of Consciousness not far away.

Stopped Garuda's rampage and healed himself...

"After all, she is very innocent, just like a newborn baby."

After a pause, Mingyu continued:

"Moreover, as long as the Herrscher of Knowledge is willing to help you, you will be able to regain the power of [Garuda], and... completely master it, and it will not go berserk again."

With the authority of consciousness, one can completely suppress the manic consciousness of [Garuda].

In various senses, the Herrscher of Knowledge is very important to Fu Hua.

"...I understand. I will find a way to convince her."

"No, I think... squad leader, you're not very good at this kind of thing."

Mingyu's mouth twitched slightly.

Thinking about the result in the original timeline where the Herrscher of Consciousness was eventually angered and driven away by Fu Hua in Taixu Mountain... Well, the Red Kite Immortal really doesn't understand human nature.

The Herrscher of Knowledge is like a little kid who craves encouragement and praise from others, but Fu Hua is more... uh, straightforward.

It's really not something she can do to coax people.

If Fu Hua were really allowed to negotiate with the Herrscher of Knowledge herself, she would most likely drive the other party away because of her straightforwardness.

This is a result that can be predicted without looking back. Otherwise, he would not have brought Xier here directly...

A gentle girl who is good at encouraging others, she is truly a treasure specially made for the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Mingyu then said:

"Anyway, leave it to me from now on. I will create an illusion, and you, squad leader, just cooperate with me to lure her into it. By then, she will gradually recognize herself."

"...Can she do that? After all, she is the Ruler of Consciousness."

Fu Hua asked with some concern.

It is extremely difficult to create an illusion for the conscious Herrscher without letting the other party know that you have done something wrong.

"If she is still in a complete state, then of course it won't work, but she spent a lot of effort to heal you just now, so now... it can indeed be done."

Mingyu nodded.

Fu Hua's consciousness was broken and she was extremely weak. The Herrscher of Consciousness paid a great price to heal her.

In this case, if you want to confuse her with illusions, it is indeed possible.

This was within his expectations.

"...Then it's up to you."

Fu Hua said in a low voice.

Afterwards, the Herrscher of Consciousness, who was not far away, saw that the time was almost up and walked over briskly.

Yu Duchen, transformed by Mingyu, floated away and hid behind Fu Hua.

"How is it? Did you remember anything?"

“…Yeah, about the same.”

Fu Hua nodded slightly.

She was an honest person and had almost no experience of lying or deceiving others, so when she thought about the lie she was about to tell, her expression became a little stiff.

Fortunately, the Herrscher of Consciousness was quite innocent, and the harsh environment here also made it impossible for her to notice that there was something wrong with Fu Hua.

She just hurriedly asked:

"Then tell me quickly, what is the origin of this stinky bird, and how can we subdue it?"

"…This is [Garuda], the super-mutation factor fused by [Fuhua]. Have you forgotten?"

"... [Garuda]? Of course I haven't forgotten it!"

The Herrscher of Consciousness was slightly stunned, then responded quickly.

In fact, she couldn't remember such an incident at all, but when the other party said this, she immediately searched for related memories in her memory.

——Nominally, it was an operation to test the "actual combat effectiveness of the Tenth God Key", but in reality it was an experiment to use extremely dangerous life-and-death battles to force the Fire Moth warriors to awaken the super-mutation factor.

At that time, the mission the soldiers received was to hunt down ordinary Honkai beasts, but when they were airdropped into the city, what suddenly appeared in front of everyone were Emperor-level Honkai beasts that ordinary soldiers could not deal with at all.

For ordinary soldiers who had no control over Honkai energy, the key of control distributed to them was just an ordinary weapon. Although the soldiers resisted with all their might, at that time, there was only massacre on the battlefield.

This is a very cruel thing, but in such an end time, no one would think there is anything wrong with it.

After all, when Dr. MEI decided to adopt such a method to quickly mass-produce fusion warriors, human civilization had already been damaged by 85% and was almost extinct.

It was during that life-and-death struggle that she, Fu Hua, successfully awakened the super-mutation factor, becoming one of the few survivors and a fusion warrior.

"...The chaos three months ago exhausted Fu Hua's remaining strength and forced her to fall into a deep sleep. As a result, Garuda was no longer suppressed by Fu Hua's consciousness and became active again."

Fu Hua told the story slowly and leisurely.

Of course, Mingyu told her all this quietly behind her back and asked her to speak out.

"I see. So, I was tormented by myself... Hmm, something seems to be wrong..."

The Herrscher of Consciousness said this with a frown on his face, sensing that something was wrong.

She must have been unconscious for a while. If Garuda really lost control during that time, it should have destroyed everything before she woke up.

But this is not the case, that is to say...

"..."

She shook her head violently, threw that possibility out of her mind, and continued to ask the "Yu Duchen" in front of her:

"Anyway, now I know it's [Garuda] that's causing all this trouble. How can I get rid of it?"

"This matter is very difficult, very difficult."

At Mingyu's instruction, Fu Hua shook her head slightly.

In the thousands of years of modern civilization, she has not used this power again, and the Herrscher of Consciousness's understanding of [Garuda] is also quite superficial.

"It's not that difficult. Just tell me what to do. I can definitely do it."

The Herrscher of Knowledge said with confidence.

“…If you want to tame it, you must face the [past] again and face all of [Fu Hua’s] inner demons.”

Fu Hua said slowly:

"After you woke up again, you should have recalled the lost past."

“…Yes, I did suffer a lot in the past.”

The Herrscher of Knowledge said seriously.

Although she didn't know why her memories came back, she did recall a lot of things.

In the past, she had experienced failure, betrayal, and was left with nothing.

If it weren't for those troublesome things, she wouldn't be like this now.

If she were to experience it again, she would definitely be able to do better, better...than [Fu Hua].

"Okay, now that we've decided, let's get going. I'll take you with me so you don't get burned here alone."

The Herrscher of Knowledge smiled and extended his hand towards Fu Hua.

"..."

It was really quite strange to be looked at by a Herrscher who looked exactly like me with an expression that I would never normally have.

Fu Hua stretched out her hand and took out the Yu Du Chen that Ming Yu had transformed into.

It seemed to be burning, floating in the air, and turned into a door in front of the two people.

The Herrscher of Consciousness did not hesitate. As soon as the door was formed, he simply took Fu Hua's hand and walked in quickly.

"Let's go on an adventure!"

Chapter 249: Memories of Life

Passing through the door that was glowing with soft light, Fu Hua and the Herrscher of Consciousness arrived at a new space.

The surrounding scenery is a pure white snowfield and a pitch-black tower standing on the snowfield.

Without a doubt, this is Siberia, the Tower of Babel.

It was... the second collapse.

In many ways, the future of the world has taken a different turn because of this collapse.

Without the Second Collapse, there would be no Sirin Project and K423, no Usagi and the new Stigmata Project, and no displacement of Bronya and Seele.

For Fu Hua herself, who was personally involved in the event, this was also a very important event node.

A fierce battle was taking place on top of that tall tower.

"Hey, look!"

The Herrscher of Consciousness pulled Fu Hua and pointed toward the sky.

Fu Hua looked upwards in the direction of her finger, and saw another self hovering in the sky, mobilizing all her life's learning to fight against the Second Herrscher.

The dazzling flames condensed into a sword in the sky, and attacked the tiny purple figure.

"This is the [Taixu Sword God]! It's really spectacular!"

The Herrscher of Consciousness seemed somewhat excited.

But Fu Hua, who returned to the scene, looked a little sad. She had not yet fully recalled what happened in the battle, but she at least remembered that [Taixu Sword God] did not kill the Second Herrscher.

Taixu Sword God is invisible and boundless. He can penetrate the defense of any barrier and directly hit the part deep in the consciousness that cannot be perceived and recognized. It is a dual attack that includes physical and spiritual effects.

But this sword did not actually destroy the Second Herrscher, because someone else took the damage from this blow for her.

That's exactly——

"Hey, it's all Prometheus XVII's fault. He had to help this girl block the sword. Otherwise, the second collapse would have ended here. Why would there be so many troubles later?"

The Herr of Knowledge said indignantly.

That’s right, it was [Will of Honkai Impact] Prometheus XVII who blocked the fatal blow for Sirin.

“…It’s not her fault.”

Fu Hua said softly.

The artificial intelligence girl who inhabits the origin of Honkai does not have much autonomy.

"Yes, yes, she has no choice. I can understand. I can understand."

The Herrscher of Knowledge said this while turning his gaze towards the battlefield.

The Second Herrscher was safe and sound, and after releasing the Grand Void Sword God and losing her ability to fight, Fu Hua faced a considerable crisis.

What bought her time and saved her life was...

A familiar yet unfamiliar figure appeared in Fu Hua's sight.

She had the same gray hair as herself, and with a well-trained figure, she held the Xuan-Yuan Sword: Ruoshui, and stood resolutely in front of the Second Herrscher, blocking her way.

"My Lord Bishop! Please take Master away, as soon as possible!"

With her back to the blond man and her unconscious master, she said resolutely:
