I already said this is not a life simulator!

[As mentioned earlier, you played a decisive role in the "Eighth Herrscher Incident". When the "Eighth Herrscher" used your song to spread its power and invaded the "Fire Moth", you also found the connection between your song and it, and started the "Crusade" in reverse.]

[Yes, it sounds very good, but this makes people think about another question - why would the "Eighth Herrscher" use your song to spread its power? And you yourself are not affected by the power of the "Eighth Herrscher", isn't this a bit strange? ]

[Okay, maybe the "Eighth Herrscher" did this on purpose, but... shouldn't your "song" have the effect of stabilizing Honkai energy? Then why can the "Eighth Herrscher" use your song to spread power? Logically speaking, the power of all "Herschers" is driven by Honkai energy, and the "Eighth Herrscher" should be no exception, so... why can it use your "song" to spread power? ]

[And if you think about it carefully, those people who spread the rumors were right... How is it possible that listening to music can cure a disease? And it's Honkai disease, and just singing can affect Honkai energy. This kind of thing will seem strange if you think about it for a moment, right? ]

[You can’t think about the following questions too much, because you will probably come to a very bad conclusion.]

[This is also one of the reasons why "Fire Moth" is unwilling to let you go out to fight casually. A small number of people have begun to doubt your existence, and even think that you may be a Honkai creature lurking among humans... And things like Honkai should be destroyed, right? ]

[In order to prevent certain people from killing you because of their inexplicable but seemingly reasonable suspicion, "Fire Moth" has to keep you under semi-house arrest in the base, which is a disguised protection for you.]

[But this has caused another impact - those who doubt you accuse "Fire Moth" of being your accomplice. The so-called "for humanity" of "Fire Moth" is just a casual lip service. The real idea is to "rule the world". For this reason, he is even willing to protect a Honkai creation, even... "Herrser"! ]

[This horrific statement almost scared the "Fire Moth" to death, and he immediately banned it]

[If you suspect that you are a Honkai creation, then it is understandable. After all, your "song" is indeed too wonderful. The degree of weirdness is almost equal to Qianjie's identity... In short, you are "inhuman"]

[But if you suspect you are a Herrscher... Sorry, you can't say such things. From what I can see so far, everything you do is to help humanity, which is completely in line with the expectations of the "Fire Moth". How can someone like you be a killing machine like the Herrscher? ]

[Even if you have such doubts, you shouldn't say them out loud. Now most of the grassroots and middle-level cadres of "Fire Moth" regard you as "hope". The songs you use to comfort have saved countless people, and the songs you use to amplify have made "Fire Moth" win again and again in the battle against Honkai... Once they know about this kind of talk, the backlash that will come is something no one wants to see, and it is even likely to evolve into a fight among humans. Now that Honkai is approaching, this kind of thing cannot happen.]

[The last one is "rule the world", haha... I can only say that the person who spreads such rumors doesn't think before speaking... Does "Fire Moth" still need to "rule the world"? As the Honkai disaster intensifies, "Fire Moth" is affiliated with the United Nations. It can be said that it has already achieved this goal in disguise, and there is no need to "realize" it at all.]

[So this is the overall situation of the world now. About 60% of people trust you and "Fire Moth", and the remaining 35% are wavering or don't care... It's hard enough to just survive now, so how can you care so much?]

[Of the remaining 5%, 3% expressed doubts about your existence. After all, your original "song" was indeed problematic. Even though the root cause was the "Eighth Herrscher", some people still doubted you... "Even if the Eighth Herrscher was 99% wrong, don't you, Xiwang, have even 1% problems?" Probably something like this.]

[…It’s disgusting]

[As for the last 2%, it goes without saying that they clearly doubt and reject your existence and the "Fire Moth". They are immersed in their own world and cannot extricate themselves. They have even done some extreme things because of this.]

[For example, stealing the potion that Fire Moth prepared to cure Honkai, smashing it, and recording a video and posting it online, while saying "This thing is not a cure at all, this is just a conspiracy of Fire Moth!" ... and so on]

[These people once made "Fire-Chasing Moth" wonder if they were too thoroughly influenced by the "Eighth Herrscher" and went crazy, or if they were deliberately left behind by the "Eighth Herrscher" when he was dying? ]

[The main reason is that these people are so annoying. Not only do they spread rumors, but they also deliberately disrupt social order, which makes "Fire Moth" extremely annoyed.]

[But fortunately, most people are now rational and intelligent, and they don't pay attention to their "crazy" remarks. The "Fire Moth" has also suppressed them with some effort, forcing them to hide in their own dark corners. The overall atmosphere of the world can be said to be stable.]

【This is really great, isn't it? 】

[But...if someone is smarter and more far-sighted, they will notice a problem... "Suspicion" has finally appeared. Under the influence of the "Eighth Herrscher Incident", a crack has appeared in the human race. And based on the human nature of "wanting to doubt something", the instinct to question something in order to protect oneself... a tiny, unhealable crack has finally appeared.]

[On the other hand, the purpose of the "Eighth Herrscher" has been achieved. The seed of "distrust" has been planted. It will eventually sprout and grow, turning into a thorny vine that will firmly imprison everyone's thoughts and hearts.]

[And in the end, humans will push each other and bring themselves to...destruction]

【………】

[…Okay, that’s a bit off topic. Let’s get back to the present and the fight against Honkai.]

[After defeating the "Eighth Herrscher" and recovering his body, the "Fire Moth" began corresponding research, especially Mebius, who became very interested in this rare, intact "Herrscher body"]

[In addition to his unique power, Mobius has been staying in the laboratory recently, occupying the body of the "Eighth Herrscher", making it impossible for other researchers to do anything they want to do. After all, Mobius, who is in a good mood, will not give such a rare material to others.]

[In the end, it was only after the persuasion of "Fire Moth", and the unanimous dissuasion of Velvet and May, that Mebius gave up the core of the "Eighth Herrscher" to prevent her from conducting any overly dangerous experiments... such as trying to revive the "Eighth Herrscher" or something like that.]

[Don’t be surprised, because Mobius really tried to do this... According to Mobius’ own reasoning, the “Eighth Herrscher” who controls the power of the mind should not die in the spiritual realm, at least it is impossible for him to die completely.]

[Combined with the previous research on the "Herrser Core", Mebius believes that the existence of the "Herrser" may have gotten rid of its dependence on the flesh, and its own consciousness, strength, spirit, and even its unknown soul may have been compressed into the "Herrser Core". This can also explain why the strange fluctuations that could be vaguely detected during the previous research on the "Herrser Core"]

[And the "Hershers Core", which is the collection and representative of the power of the "Hershers", and the confirmed and well-preserved "Hershers" body, plus some... appropriate methods, can a "Hershers" be resurrected? ]

[Furthermore, is this resurrected Herrscher a completely new existence, a "newborn", or... the resurrection of the past Herrscher? ]

[Mebius was curious about this. Having spent her entire life exploring the brink of life and death, she was particularly interested in studying this aspect of the problem, not to mention that the object was the Herrscher, so... she also took action.]

[Others watched in fear as Mobius's research became more and more crazy and "over the line". Finally... after Mobius really produced some results and the corpse of the "Eighth Herrscher" began to react again, "Fire Moth" ordered her to stop the research and forcibly recovered the core of the "Eighth Herrscher". At the same time, he took back the corpse of the "Eighth Herrscher" and said that the corresponding research must be carried out under the approval and supervision of the application.]

[This made Mebius somewhat resentful, but it didn't matter. To her, this was just an extra "process" application stage, nothing big... She was very confident, because in "Fire Moth", no one except her could use this corpse to research anything.]

[And this is indeed the case. After trying to get other people to do the research, "Fire Moth" actually didn't get any results, or the research progress was too slow, and in the end, it could only reluctantly give most of the research time back to Mebius.]

[But there are still some rules. The research must be conducted under the supervision of personnel sent by "Fire Moth". If there is a problem, it must be stopped immediately... "Fire Moth" does not want a "Herrser" to suddenly jump out of its base, and it is created by "Fire Moth" itself.]

[It's somewhat funny that an existence that destroys humanity emerges from an organization that saves humanity, and is awakened by the organization itself]

[And this person who was assigned by "Fire Moth" to be in charge of monitoring, you also know him. He is your friend, and the one who brought you into "Fire Moth" - Light]

[In addition, Mei seems to have some plans. She has been negotiating with the people of "Fire Moth" recently. The content seems to be related to the moon... It seems that she is planning to transform a base on the moon? ]

[However, those are a little too far away from you... Right now, you basically stay inside the "Fire Moth" base, trying to continuously develop your abilities while continuing what you have been doing all along - writing songs.]

[Well~ After all, you are still a musician~ Although Eden doesn't want to continue singing on the stage for her own reasons, and she has gradually adapted to the activities in the Honkai battlefield, and slowly, like Sakura, she has to participate in the battles and missions against Honkai. She doesn't have much time to write music. She can only improvise a few lines when she is relaxing or when inspiration suddenly bursts out... And in this situation, you naturally have to do your part together with her~]

[Besides, your power is also exerted in the form of "songs", so you should naturally write more songs. It will always be boring to let people listen to the same few songs over and over again... Although you can also use old songs. After all, your power only needs "songs" to exert, and it is not limited to any particular song, so it is actually okay to use old songs, haha...]

[…But you still want to write some new songs]

[Everyone's hard work gives you inspiration, the dull social environment gives you some enlightenment, and the various aspects of human life under the disaster are presented before your eyes, and you... want to turn them into songs and compose them one by one]

[You and Eden watched helplessly as the world evolved from that glorious era into what it is now, turning into a giant war machine to fight the collapse. Even though you provided relief in the middle, everything inevitably led to this outcome in the face of an increasingly worse reality.]

[Even Eden was dragged into it. She, who used to be a singer, now stepped onto a new "stage" as a "warrior", shining her glory in a new way. Even though she still called herself a singer, was still obsessed with art, and intoxicated by the "beauty" that belonged only to civilization, but... she finally refused to sing in front of the world.]

[The glory of art is gradually fading, and humans are abandoning all unnecessary entertainment. Even art, which should have always existed and demonstrated the progress of human civilization and described the traces of human civilization, is gradually fading and is on the verge of disappearing.]

[And now, you have to protect it and keep it well... because you are special]

[Your power is exerted by your "song", and everything you gain is because of your "song". Therefore, you want to give back to everyone with "song"]

After all, you are special.

[Your "song" is your "power". Composing new music and singing new songs is the way to exert your power. Therefore, you will never stop, and you will never stop composing new music.]

【after all……】

[These are the few things you can do now]

Chapter 6037: A Little Abnormality ()

[Yes, composing new music is one of the few things you can do now]

[After the "Eighth Herrscher Incident", "Fire-Chasing Moth" confirmed that the music you developed to increase the power of other fusion warriors could also be "copied", and the places where you were needed to fight became fewer and fewer.]

[Thanks to your "song", many people survived the fusion warrior surgery, so the "Fire Moth" has a sufficient number of combatants. Now, coupled with your "song" that can increase strength... Well, now you can probably understand why the "Fire Moth" can win every battle against the Honkai, right? ]

[With your calming "song", the quarantine area doesn't really need you to stay there all the time. After all, all you need to do is play your "song" and give them some medicine, and the patients can wait for recovery. Although this may take a long time... but it is more or less certain that this method is useful.]

[For a while, you had nothing to do in "Fire Moth". Apart from composing new songs, you would at most take care of Grayshu, or be dragged by Velvet to watch her new performance, and then modify her performance music list under her "outrageous client" request, or be asked by Alicia to sing... It doesn't matter, you are passionate about it anyway]

[As for the rest of the time, you will wait for Eden and Sakura to return, and accompany them in their activities, such as watching Eden drink one cup after another, and finally get drunk, and dazedly drag you to chat about some random things; for example, go to visit Ling with Sakura, and then take Ling to meet people like Padufils and Grace who might get along with her...]

Everything seems to be fine, right?

[…Yeah, everything is fine.]

--------

"Hahahaha!!! Come again! That's right! Kevin! Come again! Use your strength! Spread your coldness! Try to freeze my rage!"

"Qianjie, this is just practice."

"This is a battle! And a battle is a fight! Kevin! Don't hold back! Come! Try to kill me!!!"

"Ugh……"

Before he even entered the training room, Qianjie's manic voice and Kevin's rare helpless sigh came into his ears on the wind.

"Hello~ I'm here again~"

Xiwang gently pushed open the door and quietly poked his head into the training room.

"Hello, Mr. Xiwang...Are you here to watch the battle?"

Su, who was standing at the edge, turned his head and "looked" at Xi Wang, then nodded at him.

"So you're here too, Sue. I didn't sense you before... Have you become more powerful?"

Xi Wang walked in and asked curiously while paying attention to the two people fighting not far away.

"I did explore my own abilities a bit, but what do you mean by feeling?"

"Ah, you know, my power will produce some byproducts... that is, wind, so I can occasionally sense some information through this. I just couldn't sense you just now."

"Is that so... It's a very convenient ability."

"Haha, it's nothing... they can't compare to yours."

Xiwang shook her head happily, and the ends of her white hair rose and fell.

"Speaking of which, I wanted to ask you before... Su, is your eyes affected by a side effect? ​​Or something else?"

"This? After I got familiar with it, I got used to perceiving my surroundings in a clearer way. Closing my eyes helps me concentrate better... But people often think I'm asleep, which is a bit annoying."

Su said with a wry smile.

"I see... I was wondering if this was a side effect, could I still help you..."

"help me?"

"Well, you know I've been quite free lately, so I've been trying to develop my abilities... like reducing the side effects on you."

"Is that so... If this really succeeds, it will surely help a lot of people."

"Yes, maybe everyone in the "Deepest Place" can recover their identities and fight alongside us as comrades~"

"...I see. You think a little further."

Su was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

Originally, he thought that Xiwang wanted to do this in order to solve Ying's problem. After all, Xiwang and Ying had a good relationship, and Ying had always cared about her pair of animal ears... It was understandable that Xiwang wanted to help her solve this problem.

At the same time, other fusion warriors who suffer from side effects can also benefit from it, such as his good friend Kevin... Did Xiwang's target turn out to be those who were imprisoned in the "Deepest Place"? He is really kinder than expected...

"And I just figured out something, so I wanted to come and see if there's a chance to try it out..."

"Oh? Have you achieved any results yet?"

"Not really. It can only be considered an extension of the previous usage... I want to try and see if it works."

Xi Wang picked out a small bunch of hair, twisted it between his fingertips, and gave an embarrassed smile.

"If possible, maybe I can fight alongside you again~"

"You don't have to do this, Xiwang. You've already done a lot."

"But there's more we need to do, isn't there, Sue?"

Xi Wang sighed... As he saw more and more "fragments" in the rain, he felt more and more clearly that what they were doing at the moment was not enough, far from enough.

"Even though my song has been copied and popularized, even though the number of fusion warriors is steadily increasing, the combat troops are constantly winning, and the various plans of the "Fire Moth" are proceeding smoothly...but the collapse seems to have no end, making victory seem far away."

"That's why we have to do more so that we can hold victory in our hands... just like you chose to participate in the Fusion Warrior surgery."

"...You know this too? Did Kevin tell you?"

Su Di opened his eyes slightly, and there was a rare hint of embarrassment in his words.

"That's about right... But I think what you said back then was pretty cool, Su, like [Studying medicine can't eliminate Honkai] or something like that..."

"Stop, please, stop..."

"Isn't this great? And you didn't give up your duties as a doctor after becoming a fusion warrior, did you? I heard that many girls like to visit you in the infirmary..."

"Please, stop talking..."

"Okay~"

Xiwang responded with a happy voice.

"Ah, just in time, they finished..."

"Huh?! It's you? Why are you here again?"

Qianjie, who had just pulled himself out of the ground, looked at Xiwang who was walking towards him and growled in a somewhat impatient tone.

"If you are not here to fight, get out of here, or... do you want to fight me? Hahaha! I don't mind, okay? When the time comes, I will remind you little by little how to escape, how to fight, and finally..."

"Thousands of calamities."

Kevin spoke up to stop Qianjie from going crazy, in case he really got the mood and wanted to fight Xiwang... Although they were familiar with each other, and they all understood that Qianjie was only verbally aggressive and would not actually attack Xiwang, but... these dangerous-sounding remarks still made people worried.
