Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

Shen Yunie understood the sudden change in her senior sister, "See you tomorrow."

There are two reasons for the collapse of Changkong City. The first is that the Honkai energy fission bomb dropped by Anti-Entropy caused the deaths of the city's citizens. The second is that the Herrscher of Thunder was awakened, causing Honkai beasts to begin to breed in the city.

The Herrscher of Thunder disappeared, and after the biggest hidden danger was eliminated, the collapse in the city gradually subsided. After a day and a half, the great collapse came to an end, and there were only a few places in the city where the collapsed beasts had not been completely surrounded and eliminated.

Hyperion floated quietly above Changkong City, and the operator continued to broadcast the location of the Honkai beast to the Valkyries in the city.

"The South City Subway Entrance Terminal, the Honkai Beasts have been eliminated."

"The downtown square has been cleared of Honkai beasts."

As the Valkyries continued to report information, the operator stretched and moved his chair back. Finally, he didn't have to stare at the screen all the time. "Ah~ It's finally done. I haven't been active for so long, but I'm so tired this time. It seems that I can't slack off in future training."

In their eyes, this collapse is almost over.

Changkong City was already a dead city. The gathering dark clouds had long been cleared away. Something was spreading and flowing under the dead land. They began to gather towards one place. Flowers bloomed in the ruins and dust. Something was beginning to be born in the city.

68. Abnormalities in Changkong City

"Ding ding--" The red dot that suddenly appeared on the screen immediately perked up the operator who was originally relaxed.

She quickly sat up straight and operated the instrument for a while. Then a picture of the city appeared on the screen, which kept zooming in until it reached a certain spot in the city. "Strange, didn't the Honkai energy reaction disappear? How come so many Honkai beasts are born now... What is that?"

Several other operators came forward and looked at the scene on the screen with puzzled expressions. This was a scene they had never seen before.

In a collapsed residential area, dozens of lower-level Honkai beasts were wandering around in a circle. Various trees, flowers and plants were blooming on the ruins, as if they had grown overnight, drilling through the rocks and absorbing air from the Honkai energy.

Logically speaking, plants cannot grow under the energy of collapse. The current situation is very abnormal. In the middle of the flowers, plants and trees, there is a vague figure sitting quietly on the tree trunk. It looks like a dead man, but he is not wandering around, and there is no sign of death. It seems like he is waiting for something.

Could it be a Pseudo-Hermaphrodite? But the Honkai Energy value was not very high, just the sum of a large number of Honkai beasts. Such an abnormality made the operators look confused, so they had to ask the school principal for instructions.

"This is Hyperion headquarters. A large number of Honkai beasts suddenly appeared in the residential area in the northern part of the city center. Please go and investigate the situation. Do not engage in battle with them."

"This is Sakurako, read it."

In the corridor of Hyperion, Shen Yunie walked towards the main control room. After a night's rest, the ideas in his mind became stronger and stronger. Although it was a bit absurd, he really wanted to do that.

He could accept this outcome no matter what she looked like after finding out where Yuno was.

Suddenly, an operator in the main control room ran over here. He looked very anxious and didn't even make way. Shen Yunie had no choice but to stand aside and wait for him to run away. The light breeze blew on his face, and he couldn't help wondering what was going on that made him so anxious.

"The cleanup work should be finished." Leah said. After a night's rest, her body has recovered a lot. She can go out and fight with the little shota, but the battle cannot last too long. "What did you and Fu Hua talk about last night? What ultimate moves?"

"We can only start studying this matter after we return to Saint Freya." Shen Yunie explained. In the morning, he simply told Leah what Fu Hua had told him yesterday.

Walking into the main control room, I saw several operators sitting in front of a large screen, watching something intently. Noticing someone appearing, they turned around and greeted the young man. These were all staff members who stayed on Hyperion all year round.

They had even less time to see men, and a little boy in Saint Freya would naturally cause discussion among these twenty-something girls. However, the current situation was too strange, so they didn't pay much attention to the boy.

"How's the damage in the city? Do you need me to help clean it up?" Shen Yunie walked forward.

There was no immediate answer. Several people moved back a little to make room for the young man to see what was happening in front of him.

"We don't understand either. Take a look at the situation first."

Shen Yunie looked up and couldn't help but be stunned. Flowers bloomed in the city? The picture was taken by a satellite from the sky. At this time, countless vegetation grew upwards around the ruins. Huge trees broke through the houses and rose into the air. Then, the petals unfolded, and it turned out to be a giant flower.

These were obviously not normal trees. There was green moss on the ground, spreading for thousands of meters. Various strange flowers were blooming, including black roses, green roses, and various strange trees. Dozens of Honkai beasts were wandering on the grass.

In the middle, a huge cherry tree had just emerged from the ground. The blurry figure that the operator had originally seen was now obscured. Only between the flowers, a girl could be vaguely seen, wearing a high school uniform and with long purple hair.

Seeing this scene, Shen Yunie's pupils shook violently. It was too conspicuous. The girl's hair color. The person he wanted to see actually appeared in front of him. Everything abnormal was telling him that the girl was not simple.

"How could this happen?" Shen Yunie's voice rose a few notches and she turned to look at the operators.

"This is in the northern part of the city center. We thought it was a Pseudo-Hermaphrodite, but its Honkai energy is not very high. We have sent people to check out the situation." Someone began to explain.

He turned his gaze back to the screen. Under the huge cherry tree, he could vaguely see the motionless girl slowly raising her head. The satellite magnified the image to a limit, and her facial features could not be seen clearly, but Shen Yunie could clearly feel that the gaze seemed to fall on his heart.

The northern part of the city center, a place he had been to once before, was where Yunai's family was located.

His heartbeat became intense, and he quickly looked away, lost in thought. He said to Leah, "Sister Leah, that's Yuno, I want to go find her."

Looking at the strange scene, Leia became silent for a while, and nodded softly after a long time, "Well... let's go find her."

The boy raised his head and his gaze became firm. The previous feeling seemed to be an illusion. Now looking at the picture, Yuno was still sitting quietly under the tree.

Shen Yunie said, "I'm going to take a look. Please report the situation to me as soon as I reach the ground."

"Someone has already gone to investigate the situation. Isn't this too dangerous?" An operator quickly advised, "After all, we have never seen the current situation before."

“Didn’t you say that the Honkai energy value hasn’t reached the level of a pseudo-herrscher, and it’s not even at the level of an emperor.” The young man’s eyes were unusually firm. “I know that person, please let me go… please!”

He felt like Kiana yesterday.

Shen Yunie's words finally convinced several operators. After all, the data would not deceive them. Even if it was an emperor-level Honkai energy, they could summon nearby Valkyries to go together and defeat it. As long as it was not at the Herrscher level, they could deal with it.

Honkai is like a mother body that continuously releases its young, which are the Herrschers. Each time it releases a young, it has to recover for a while before it can release another, otherwise it will disappear due to excessive consumption. Now it seems that releasing one young is already the limit.

The birth of two Herrschers from one collapse had never happened in history, and they also thought it was unlikely.

The young man didn't plan to stay for a moment after getting the promise. He put the headset on his ears and said, "Thank you!"

After saying that, he turned and ran out of the main control room. The next room was the room where Hyperion landed. He put on the jetpack and came to the glass floor. Under his feet were clouds so thick that the city could not be seen clearly. Shen Yunie pressed the headset, "Saint Freya Knight Heiyuan, requesting to land in Changkong City."

"Requesting permission, the landing hatch will be opened in three seconds."

With a crisp sound, the three layers of glass gradually opened, and Shen Yunie fell into the sky. The wind whistled in his ears, and the spray-painted backpack on his back started to work, allowing him to soar in the air and fly towards the city.

"Knight of the Black Abyss, given the strange situation, please do not drop directly into the location. Land in the city center and wait for the exploration results to appear before approaching."

69. Cherry Tree and Girl

Falling from the sky, Shen Yunie could clearly see a strange greening phenomenon in Changkong City. They only appeared in a certain range and then did not continue to spread. He felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Following the operator's instructions and aiming at the city center, he slowly dropped down with the jetpack holding his body in the air.

Shen Yunie landed in the center of the square. In just over a day, the Honkai energy in the city was reduced a lot. With the disappearance of the Herrscher and the continuous elimination of Honkai beasts, the Honkai energy value in the city has been completely suppressed. However, it will take a long time for people to rebuild the city and survive.

"Heiyuan, let's go. There are no signs of Honkai beasts around, so be careful." The operator informed him of the information through the headset.

"Got it." Shen Yunie walked towards the north with joy and a little fear in his heart.

He was able to see Yuno again, but the sudden appearance of vegetation in the city and the fact that the girl didn't look abnormal at all showed that something had happened to her. And it was definitely something bad.

There are many bad guesses that may happen, but they don’t want to think about it anymore, otherwise they may not have the courage to see each other even for the last time.

Leah comforted him softly, "Don't worry, Yuno is a kind child, God will not torture her."

"I also hope she can relax a little." Shen Yunie's tone was calm, but he still couldn't hide the helplessness in his tone.

The girl's strangeness was bound to attract attention, and if she showed any strangeness again, she would be besieged by the Valkyries.

In the face of the collapse, the most powerless are ordinary people, who have no choice and no ability. In the blink of an eye, everything they have will be destroyed and they will even turn into monsters. The next are these people who have the ability to fight against the collapse. What does it matter? They are also wandering in loss.

"But no matter what, I want to see her." Shen Yunie's gaze gradually became firm, and his steps became much faster.

Sakuraba Tsukiko is a fifth-year student at Saint Freya. After receiving the operator's instructions, she began to walk north. Although she is still a B-rank Valkyrie, she has performed many missions and is not afraid even if she is alone on the battlefield.

At this time, she was the first person to approach that strange place.

This was originally a ruin, but due to the growth of vegetation, it became a flat land. The green moss seemed to have eaten away all the stones. Sakuraba Tsukiko walked on it without feeling any discomfort. Instead, the air became much fresher after walking into the grass.

"Report, no abnormalities were found, but the air is much fresher." She reported the information to the other side. She had been fighting in Changkong City for a long time, and had inhaled a lot of dust and collapsed energy. Finally, she encountered fresh air. She couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.

"Please enter and explore."

Her words were also heard by Shen Yunie who was rushing over. The air in the place where the Collapse Beast was was still fresh, which made him even more confused. Not far away, a large area of ​​green could be vaguely seen, and these vegetation seemed to have expanded a lot.

Is it an illusion? The operators did not say that the area covered by plants has increased.

Sakuraba Tsukiko continued to walk forward, and gradually the figures of Honkai beasts appeared in front of her. There were at least forty or fifty of them. They wandered back and forth, surrounding the huge cherry tree as if it were their master.

She subconsciously released her sword and held it in her hand, "Hyperion, nearly fifty Honkai beasts have been found and need to be eliminated."

There was no response, only a faint sound of electricity came from the headset. Just as she was wondering if Hyperion had received it, all the Honkai beasts suddenly turned around and faced her. They did not attack, but just looked at her and then walked to both sides, making way in the middle.

Sakuraba Tsukiko's attention was diverted from the headset, "Hyperion, the Honkai beast is making way for me..."

She said hesitantly, and walked forward tentatively. The Honkai beasts kept splitting apart, and the road stretched all the way to the end under the huge cherry tree. Sakuraba Tsukiko looked at this scene with a surprised face. She was a little afraid to get closer. The Honkai beasts made way for her? She was not a Herrscher, so how could such a situation happen?

His eyes fell on the big tree in the village and the figure under the tree.

Under the cherry tree, thick roots broke through the ground and were exposed to the air, tumbling and spreading. It seemed that such a huge tree took hundreds of years to grow. But hundreds of years old cherry trees only exist in legends.

The girl sat quietly on a platform made of tree roots, wearing a high school uniform. Every corner of the collapsed city was covered with dust, but there was not a single stain on her. The calm, gentle, perfect girl seemed out of place in this broken world.

The pink and white petals fell in the wind, and she slowly raised her head, her flawless face meeting Sakuraba Tsukiko's. Something seemed to be surging and spreading underground, and the Honkai Beast stood still, like a statue guarding its master, and something in the girl's body began to change.

"Headquarters!" Sakuraba Tsukiko's eyes widened in fear. She was frightened and stepped back, quickly pressing the earphone, "Something is wrong, this is a pseudo-herrscher! She is pretending to be, but in fact she is absorbing the Honkai energy in Changkong City!"

There was no response, the noise in the headset became louder and louder, she suddenly realized that when she set foot in this territory, all the instruments on her body were cut off from the outside world without her noticing, all the abnormalities were created by this girl, just to blur Hyperion's vision!

"Sakurako, Team Member Sakurako?" On the Hyperion, the operator had tried to call Sakuraba Tsukiko several times, but there was no response from the other party.

After she stepped onto the vegetation-covered area on the screen, the Honkai energy on her body was covered by the Honkai beasts, and now it is completely impossible to find where she is.

The operator's intuition told her that this situation was definitely not normal. She immediately called Shen Yunie to stop the boy from moving forward. "Knight of the Black Abyss, this is Hyperion Headquarters. Please reply if you get it! The situation ahead is abnormal. Do not continue forward. I repeat, the situation ahead is abnormal. Do not continue forward!"

The vegetation that was originally only in an area on the screen suddenly began to change. Everyone looked at this scene in amazement. The green area instantly began to expand, and the area had actually surrounded most of Changkong City.

They seemed to have been hiding underground before, and quickly broke through the ground under manipulation. The purpose of all this was to make Hyperion underestimate the enemy, and the opponent's goal had been achieved!

In Changkong City, Shen Yunie looked at the moss that suddenly appeared under his feet in shock. The world around him turned green in the blink of an eye. The headset had been paralyzed at some point, and he could not hear the news that Hyperion and Sakuraba Tsukiko said.

70. The Law-Simulating

Behind him was a large expanse of moss and grass, with no end in sight. Shen Yunie looked at the scene in a daze, while Leah appeared and watched him vigilantly, fearing that any danger might suddenly appear.

The two waited for a long time, but no danger appeared. Except for the greenery that instantly spread over most of Changkong City, the scene looked like a scene from an anime.

"Even the city center has been spread." Shen Yunie frowned. There was no collapse energy and no danger, but what was going on with this weird scene? The deeper he went, the more lush the vegetation became. After hesitating for a few seconds, he decided to continue to go deeper to check, "Sister Leah, let's go to the center to see the situation."

"But we can't contact Hyperion and the Valkyrie." Leah was still a little hesitant, but followed the little boy into the depths. The worst-case scenario came to mind one by one, "Yuno..."

"No, if she becomes like that, I will do it without hesitation." Shen Yunie interrupted the unfinished words, looking unusually calm.

She was the first girl who told him that she liked him. Although he didn't like her that much yet, he seemed to have gotten used to the days when she was around him, just like Bianca when she was a child.

Be kind to those who are kind to you. He wants to save Yuno, but the girl is about to become a monster to be attacked by others, so he should end the girl's suffering as soon as possible.

Above Hyperion, a large amount of green appeared on the screen. The operator finally realized that he had been fooled by the girl on the screen.

The Honkai energy was not displayed by a group of Honkai beasts, but was only released by her. The reason why she had brought so many Honkai beasts was just to use puppets to cover up the large amount of Honkai energy so that she could break through faster.

A pseudo-Hershersman! And a Herrscher that was evolving towards its final form. Only a monster of this level could possess such intelligence.

A shrill alarm sounded in the mothership. The first one to rush over was Theresa. She frowned. She had felt something strange when she saw the document, but she didn't have time to stop the Valkyrie from approaching.

The people around her made way. She came to the screen and stared at the spreading green, and asked, "How many Valkyries are close to that place?"

"Two people are close to the center circle, and there are still a dozen Valkyries affected." As the operator was speaking, the screen suddenly fluctuated violently, and the situation that appeared made her eyes widen again.

Changkong City, which was originally divided into a central circle and an outer circle, had its Honkai energy dispersed at this time. It no longer had the same high Honkai energy as before, and the trace of the Pseudo-Herrscher that had just been locked on also disappeared.

"She hid herself!"

The methods of this Pseudo-Herrser were much more clever than those of the Herrser of Thunder. He even went so far as to hide himself in order to avoid being found when he was exposed.

However, this also indirectly shows that her power is far inferior to that of the Herrscher of Thunder, and she is not strong enough to expose herself at will.

Theresa looked at them coldly, turned around and walked out of the main control room, "I will go find the Herrscher, and once I can get in touch with them, have them return to Hyperion immediately."

"Okay." The operator nodded quickly. Only then did she realize that the principal had been dragging the golden cross called the Oath of Judas since he came in.

She is ready for the next battle, the only S-class Valkyrie in Saint Freya.

Weird trees, flowers, and cool air, Shen Yunie gradually saw the environment in the depths. The surrounding area within a thousand meters was full of blooming cherry trees, which were lined up on both sides, and a road was deliberately left in the middle.

"Remember to come and see me when you have time. Next time, you'll be able to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom!"

The boy heard a voice in his mind. He stopped and looked around in confusion, but no one appeared. Leah asked, "Yune, why did you stop?"

"I just heard Yuno's voice, maybe it was an illusion." Shen Yunie shook his head, his mind became a lot more fuzzy because of the previous words. Maybe it was an illusion because he wanted to see Yuno too much?

After coming to this conclusion, he started walking again. In the distance was a huge and lush cherry tree. A girl with long purple hair was sitting quietly under the tree, with her head buried in her knees as if she was asleep.

His heartbeat inexplicably began to accelerate, as if this was not an exploration mission but rather that he was about to embark on a grand ceremony. Shen Yunie's breathing began to weaken, and even his footsteps became silent.

Seeing the little boy's strange behavior, Leia couldn't help but frowned but didn't say anything.

A gust of wind blew, and the flowers, plants, and trees swayed in the wind. The cherry blossoms were blown down to form a pink rain of flowers. A lot of flowers fell on the boy's shoulders and body. A large number of memories flooded into his mind. They seemed to be out of control and began to appear one by one in front of Shen Yunie.
