I'm not Yingjie

This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone. No one will care if the Speaker dies, there will only be cheers.

Take action?

now?

Without any hesitation, Spasi raised the gun and pointed it at the Speaker's heart. He didn't want to see the Speaker's head explode like a watermelon. That scene would remind him of his wife.

"..."

But his finger never pulled the trigger.

The speaker's smile before he fell into coma still lingered. It was not a smile of sarcasm or sneer, but a smile of... success.

Would anyone be happy to hear that he would die? Was his purpose from the beginning to die?

But in order to survive, the Speaker brought the Sixth Herrscher to a densely populated city, which was equivalent to dropping a nuclear bomb into the city.

"I want to live to the fifth branch!" The ferocious roar echoed in his ears, shaking Spasi's body.

Live to...the fifth branch.

Only when a person dies can he see himself clearly.

Spasi suddenly understood why the Speaker smiled like that, because his plan was successful.

He brought the Herrscher with him just to survive to the fifth branch, and he cracked the Herrscher's power for the sake of humanity, but after completing this last thing for his own good, only selfishness remained in his heart.

The Speaker wants to use the body of this last Honkai disease patient to gamble on the completion of the serum, even at the cost of the fate of the entire city and even mankind.

And this is just for another person, another Honkai disease patient, the man who went to the front line.

Sometimes, the significance of one person transcends that of many others.

Spashi thought of the night when he lost his wife and daughter. He lost his mind and vented all his anger on Lin, even though he knew that was the best solution, even though he knew that he was the one responsible for researching the antidote for Honkai Disease...

But if he had the chance, he would definitely choose to exchange his life for the lives of his wife and daughter. Even if he could save more lives and let more people live happily, he would not hesitate.

But does this justify the significance of all the former members of the fifth branch?

Spasi clenched his teeth, his eyes widened, and he showed no intention of loosening his fingers.

This man destroyed the fifth branch for his plan, and now he wants to sacrifice so many lives for his important people.

The significance of the Fifth Branch...

Gradually, the fingers exert force.

I will do it——

Press the trigger fully.

"Oh!"

The boiling blood splashed onto Spasi's murderous face, and the bloodshot in his eyes was hideous and terrifying.

"..."

He inhaled and exhaled slowly, and his rapidly beating heart slowed down.

The bullet hole was clearly visible on the table beside the Speaker, and after coughing up blood, the Speaker became even weaker and could die at any time.

Spacey's hand fell to his side and the pistol fell to the ground with a clang.

The purpose of the Fifth Branch is to save lives, and all of them are Fire Moths who joined to risk their lives for this purpose.

He wants to carry on their will.

Spasi felt some slight phantom pain on the side of his missing arm. He turned his head and saw a white-haired woman holding his hand and a young child smiling at him.

Lifelike, as if they were still alive.

"Karen, Sizhi... wait for me a little longer... wait for me a little longer..."

Spasi sat down against the wall, tilted his head back and whispered.

……

“Where will my dream end?”

“At the beginning of reality.”

"Where does my reality end?"

“At the beginning of your heart.”

Lin stood in the darkness. He looked back, but could not see the road he came from, nor could he see a trace of light.

After looking forward again, he could not see the way forward.

It turns out that he was not on the right path at all.

He chuckled to himself and walked in a random direction.

Lin could not hear any other voices in the darkness. He wanted to shout, but he could only hear the roar in his throat, like a demon, unbearable and ugly.

After walking in the dark for a long time, he lost his way and didn't know whether he was going in circles or going back.

But it didn't matter. No matter where he went, all he could see was darkness.

The others said the same thing to him, and he followed them in. They were the same kind of people, and could only survive in the darkness. Even if there was only a little light, they would be burned to ashes.

Yes, like a moth to a flame.

Once you put on the mask, you can't take it off.

But Lin has no regrets, this is the path he chose.

He cannot allow the sacrifices of those who fall on this road to lose their meaning. He must keep going, even if more and more people die, even if he becomes cold-blooded and ruthless, he must abide by this principle.

Mistakes breed mistakes, he's been doing the wrong things all his life, and in the end, he did just that.

Where will this road lead?

After a lifetime of exploring this bumpy night road, I'm afraid the end will also be bottomless darkness.

That’s right, people like him don’t need a good ending.

By the way, what about “him”?

"..."

Never mind. It's not his business to worry about it.

Lin smiled sadly.

The number of people he has offended is innumerable, and the lives he has destroyed are countless. It is ridiculous and shameless that he simply wants to use "him" to atone for his sins.

"He" regained his memory and left Dusk Street to return to this battlefield, which was a punishment for his naive behavior.

How far do we have to go on this road? It's really cold.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, a faint and soft light shone at Lin's feet, and he raised his head in confusion.

An inconspicuous ball of light, emitting warm light in the darkness, appeared in front of us at some point.

There was where the night ended and his reality began.

Tears slid down from the corners of Lin's eyes, illuminated by the light.

"Why... I am always so hesitant... I have done everything wrong, and I can't even stick to my mistakes..." He knelt on the ground, crying loudly, and the mask on his face collapsed in the light.

"Why are we born into this world full of pain..."

"Why do we have to meet..."

“Why on earth is this happening…”

Even if nothing is illuminated, are you willing to appear in this darkness?

If only you had never been born...

If only I hadn't found you...

If only you had grown up normally...

"If only... I could love you normally..."

Chapter 75: Salvation? Destruction?

"Can you find the Sixth Herrscher?"

After hearing this information from Lin, Spashi's first reaction was that the Sixth Herrscher's Honkai reaction had been captured, but there was no corresponding information from the monitor, so he asked doubtfully, "How do we find it?"

Lin's voice from the communicator was mixed with some noisy noises. It seemed that he was not inside the Fifth Branch but outside. "There are two types of Herrscher personalities. One is that a new personality appears to replace the original personality, and the other is that the original personality is polluted. The difference between the two is that the former is more like an AI program, while the latter has strong anti-human tendencies and lacks common sense."

After hearing this, Spasi frowned. He certainly knew the basic knowledge about the Herrscher. "But no matter which one it is, the original personality is equivalent to complete death. Even if it is personality pollution, it will become another personality from the inside out. It is better to say that the Herrscher produced by personality pollution is more dangerous."

In addition to their powers, Herrschers with personality pollution will have more human characteristics, which means they will be more flexible and know how to use their power.

"Are you trying to say that the Sixth Herrscher is a type of Herrscher with a corrupted personality? But even so, you..."

"Yes, the Herrscher of the fifth Honkai Impact is of the same type." Lin's tone was extremely calm. "The fifth Herrscher retained her original memories and personality after becoming a Herrscher. She can speak normally and say the names of people she knows, and she will subconsciously go to places that are important to her."

The Herrscher of the fifth Honkai, the Herrscher of Ice, is Sister Bina. After she transformed into a Herrscher, she was able to recognize Lin, kept repeating Anna's name, and built a nest in the orphanage to enhance her control over her power, which were not shown by the Herrschers of the first four Honkai.

In other words, Binet is still Binet, her personality has not changed much. The only thing that has changed is that she will cruelly and ruthlessly kill humans, even if that is her most important relative Anna.

Maybe it was a subconscious modification, or maybe it was something more profound and elusive, but in any case it sent a signal -

The consciousness of the Herr is not elusive.

"Are you trying to say you know the location?"

"…There are two possible places in this city. One is the Fifth Branch. If she didn't come to the Fifth Branch, it means she went to another place."

Lin looked far away and saw the Ferris wheel reaching into the sky standing before him.

Once, he and Soul came to this amusement park, and it was here that Soul vowed to him to fight for the dead and for the living.

He knew the soul was here.

He kept his oath.

So he wants to kill the soul.

For another vow.

……

“She” “resurrected” another person, that was Lin’s friend, the former R&D director Delta. After seeing his surprised expression, “she” couldn’t help laughing and said, “Okay, don’t be surprised. I’ll take you to see Lin in a while. He will definitely be surprised to see you.”

"Oh, by the way, I also have to cure Lin's illness. I can do it." "She" said to herself, "I won't let anyone die. Well, those who were killed by me will also be resurrected... No..."

Killed person?

“She” shook her head, feeling a little confused. Why would “she” think like that?

“She” has never killed anyone?

"She" clearly remembered that she had been fighting for her comrades and friends, so how could she possibly kill someone?

Yes, I must have remembered it wrong. Those “she” killed were all monsters, all monsters created by Honkai!

I haven’t had enough rest recently, so my brain may be a little confused. It doesn’t matter. After “she” finishes these things, “she” can live happily together with everyone.

There is also a gift from Destobia that needs to be given to Lin. Will he be happy or shocked when he sees it?

Hehe, I'm really looking forward to what expression he will have under his helmet.

This time, I must see what he looks like. He must be a very stern-looking person, right? After all, he has always been a man of few words, so he must be a stern and handsome guy to fit the image.

“She” was eager to continue to revive more people. There were already quite a few people standing behind “her”. They were all people “she” remembered, people who died on the battlefield or in accidents. There were former members of the Seventh Squad, members of the Fifth Branch, and members engraved in the “cemetery”…

"She" doesn't know what some people look like, but when she is resurrected, she doesn't need to think about it at all. As long as she knows the name, her mind will automatically fill in everything about that person, including appearance and memory.

But just when "she" used her ability of "creation", an outsider accidentally stepped into the green shade.

"Gah-"

"Her" expression froze, she turned her head in fear and saw a pale figure.

A dead man with a twisted body was standing at the intersection of the path, staring at her motionlessly with his cloudy yellow eyes.

Dead soldier?
