Collapse, before and after civilization, I am the only one C

"But really, it's almost time."

The Herrer of Wind has not been born yet, which makes April a little confused. Could it be that because of him, there will be a big collapse?

"Cang Xuan, you're so lazy all day, aren't you afraid of collapse?"

"Well, we still have you guys anyway, and the collapse doesn't seem to be a big deal."

Humans have begun researching machines that can predict where the Honkai will occur. If successful, the destructive power of the Honkai will be greatly reduced again.

In any case, Cang Xuan didn't feel any sense of urgency.

April nodded, and when she returned home, the lazy Alicia was already lying on the sofa.

Because I'm at home, I don't need to wear so much and I feel quite cool.

But at this moment, her expression was not very good, and she looked a little depressed.

"What's wrong? Who made you angry?"

April couldn't tell what he was feeling right now. After Xiao Ai pointed out some things to him, he inexplicably felt a heaviness in his heart.

Because of him, the Herrscher of the Void had a much easier time than in the original novel.

"No, the main thing is that I don't understand why Dr. Mobius is always so obsessed with the Stigmata Project."

Mebius's Stigmata plan was rejected once again. This plan, which had always been kept secret in the past, was made public this time.

But it does not affect her private research. In fact, it is not a big deal. The Stigmata Project pursues individual transcendence and has little to do with Honkai at present. Jun just thinks the casualty rate is too high and does not react too much.

"She seems to be very worried about the damage caused by the collapse, and has been a little radical recently."

Alicia sighed helplessly, then tilted her head to look at Xiao Yuan beside her.

April opened her mouth many times, but in the end just nodded woodenly.

He knew the reason, which was what he told Mebius in his previous life, so Mebius always had a sense of urgency.

But because of him, the sense of urgency in this great era is not very strong.

"Aren't you afraid of collapse?"

April was lying aside, somewhat bewildered. Alicia, on the other hand, did not show any nervousness at this moment. Logically speaking, she was the one who understood Honkai the most.

Alicia stammered and didn't answer immediately until April looked at her in confusion.

"I'm afraid. I'm afraid that Honkai will bring disaster. I'm also afraid that you'll foolishly rush forward. But... as long as we all work together, we won't lose, right?"

Alicia was not just dealing with it, she really thought so. Currently, human technology is developing rapidly. Before, it was not easy to deal with the oversized Honkai beasts, but now individual armor has gradually developed.

It seems that humans no longer have to fear anything.

"..."

April nodded.

"I'm going to cook, I'll be back soon."

It seems that the situation is a bit bad now. Other travelers have brought progress, but he found that although the losses were reduced, humans seemed to relax...

Who can I talk to to explain this?

He suddenly thought of a particularly psychological theory. Any time traveler who changed the past could avoid a disaster. But if there had not been this disaster, how could future generations learn from it?

It's just that future generations will make the same mistake again.

Into the night

"Xiao Yuan, we agreed not to hide anything from each other."

It is really annoying when the other person is worried but you don't know about it.

Alicia grabbed Xiao Yuan's shoulders and looked straight into his eyes.

"I just feel that humans are a little too relaxed about Honkai right now."

Alicia: ...

Suddenly I felt that I was being rude just now. Why did I ask this question for no reason?

The two were silent for a while. Alicia bit her lip and gradually exerted force with her palms.

hiss……

Her shoulder was in severe pain. Maybe Alicia had forgotten that she had a special trait of super strength. April didn't know what she was thinking. She suddenly stopped, probably because she wanted to play a trick on him.

Alicia:? ? ?

Her cherry lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but now all she could do was gasp.

[Afterwards, you were almost beaten to death by Alicia. If you dare to stop at this point, no matter what excuse you find, it will be useless.]

[What are you doing here? ]

Before the Chinese New Year, April met Jun. He was no longer as gentle as when they first met, giving April the feeling of a robot looking around.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Jun is a robot, but at this moment his eyes seem to really be measuring the value of everything around him.

To be honest, this is not a good thing. April has seen this state in Otto before, but it was fleeting and Otto was still the same funny guy.

"I think you should tone it down a bit."

Although rationality is indeed good, April always feels weird, especially Jun at this moment.

"Speaking of which, how strong are you now?"

Jun did not answer April's question. After all, he was just acting out of habit. He thought someone came to him to do something, or to talk about something else.

"…I've improved a little bit compared to before, but not much. I feel like I've reached a limit."

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the limit. After all, April’s talent is not outrageous. Now she has vaguely reached the limit, but there is still the Taixu sword energy to support her.

But to be honest, Siyue feels that the unlimited power of Taixu Sword Qi is a scam. At least it is becoming increasingly difficult for him to make progress.

But he indeed didn't touch Fu Hua... Let alone Fu Hua, he didn't even touch Cheng Lingshuang, and that made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Do you think the subsequent collapse will be solved so easily?"

April was very surprised that Jun actually took the initiative to worry about this matter. To be honest, he felt relieved instantly.

He felt that this was probably a sequelae of his past experience with Otto.

"I don't know, but I hope you can really take this matter seriously. I always feel that the atmosphere of the Fire Moth is a little off right now."

“There’s a feeling that the collapse is not taken seriously.”

April was also unusually frank, even though he didn't know how to solve the problem either.

Jun glanced at him and was not surprised by April's answer. He could only say that he had already guessed it.

“Have you seen the attitude of the lower-level soldiers?”

April didn't answer.

"No, right? Then where did you get this conclusion?"

"Poison Pupa, Alicia, or your group of friends?"

Different from April's feelings, Jun felt that the attitude of the Fire Moths towards Honkai was enough at the moment. Although they were not as strong as the Army of Faith back then, soldiers driven by hatred would bring out a sense of urgency in other soldiers.

The first collapse, the second collapse, and the third collapse brought a lot of fresh blood to the Fire Moth's army. They harbored hatred and influenced others.

If there are no major changes during the collapse, with the current development of technology, he is confident that he can face the next major collapse.

"You are still young, and it is normal to admire individual heroes, but you have to remember this."

"The human race needs leaders, but what it needs more is unity. The reason why individual heroes are emphasized in history is that... it is difficult for humans to unite spontaneously."

"But besides heroism, there is one thing that unites humanity more easily: hatred."

After making some dangerous remarks, Jun paused for a moment, his expression becoming somewhat helpless.

"However, it seems that the peaceful days have lasted too long, and now humans have lost some of their bloodiness."

"The situation was originally created for the sake of stability, but it allowed the collapse to take advantage of the situation."

Almost every country in the world emphasizes family and national education, and strives to maintain social stability. To this goal, various policies naturally tend to wear down the bloodiness of ordinary people, but who could have thought that such a thing as collapse would occur.

Just... taking advantage of the situation? April's originally relaxed mood completely disappeared.

"You still look down on Honkai."

April was silent for a long time, and finally said only this one sentence. He didn't know what to say.

In the eyes of Jun, who seems to value Honkai, it seems that human unity can cope with all disasters in the world.

April couldn’t tell whether it was right or wrong, because he thought so too, but humans couldn’t unite!

"You still don't believe in my ability."

Jun looked at April calmly, as he had been doing since a long time ago.

He believed that this was easy to understand for April because April was very much like him when he was a teenager, but April was not as extreme as he was.

But now, Fire Moth is almost the only one in power. What is April worried about?

Alicia is very mysterious, and Jun has even tried not to think about some things. But in Jun's opinion, April is even more mysterious than Alicia.

April looked at the man who was no longer young and calmly asked the question, a question that made him not believe Jun at all.

"If one day the only way for humans to survive a disaster is to stop being human..."

"Then I would rather the human race become extinct."

Jun showed no hesitation, his expression was calm and a little arrogant.

Call him arrogant or stubborn, but he can't accept humans being kept in captivity.

When humans need monsters for protection, aren't they just lambs in captivity, having to look at other people's faces? What's more terrifying is that this kind of monster was once a human being and can easily make others let down their guard.

Over time, humans have become accustomed to their rule. They have lost their bones. After kneeling for so long, how can they stand up again?

"Why don't you want to believe them?"

April and Jun had already discussed the previous question once, and his answer left April at a loss for words.

April didn't even know how to explain to him that fusion fighters are originally human beings! Would they definitely become monsters if they had the power?

"Because I'm not young like you."

Here it comes again, his age seems to be a big flaw, the innocence and passion of youth are all shortcomings, and Jun can ridicule his immaturity at will by relying on his age.

"I remember you are very familiar with the history of Shenzhou, right?"

April nodded. She couldn't say she understood it very clearly, but she did understand part of it.

"Then tell me, when the princes were first divided, everyone was so harmonious, why did so many problems arise later?"

"Is it time? They are high up, and their offspring are also high up. Are they really intimate with you?"

"What's even more ridiculous is that quite a few people use the friendship of the original princes to erase their crimes."

"They are just ordinary people. There are many ways to deal with them, but what about the monsters you are talking about?"

Jun didn't say much. He believed in human beings, but he absolutely didn't believe that human hearts would never change.

"So I believe in technology. Isn't the current individual armor very good?"

"If one day technology cannot keep up with progress, humans will have to protect humans at the cost of no longer being human."

"By that time, will the development of technology still be able to surpass... the possibility of protecting humans at the cost of no longer being human?"

Then the situation he mentioned above would be repeated. Humans got used to the protection of these monsters. They controlled humans with their strength, and then as time went by, humans completely became lambs.

He is definitely not a stubborn fool. He is not from the founding generation, the second generation, or even the third generation. It is impossible for him to have come this far and say that he does not know how to adapt.

But he admires humanity immensely. The fact that he has a good relationship with April actually shows something. He likes boys with this kind of youthful mentality.

"If I tell you that these monsters have protected humans for a full 50,000 years, would you believe it?"

Jun was a little surprised, but he didn't show too much surprise. He just quietly asked April back.

“Is it affection or hatred that keeps them going?”

"Are they looking at humans or a species?"
