Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

"These Honkai Beasts, did you summon them?"

Breathing softly, Bronya stared at the brown-haired boy in front of her and asked.

She had seen it clearly just now; those Honkai Beasts were completely chasing after her and Seele, as if they couldn't see the boy at all.

"They are called the Quantum Shadows, monsters born from your understanding."

The deeper we delve into the ocean of quantum mechanics, the more active they become.

Shaking his head, Joachim explained with a more serious expression, "Even knowing all this, do you still intend to move forward?"

“Seele has the power to fight them.”

Clutching the white scythe tightly in her hand, Seele spoke timidly.

"Bronya won't turn back like that."

Bronya added.

Although she didn't quite understand the principle, she knew that she and Seele already had the power to fight against the Quantum Shadow.

"If you really have the courage to go deeper, then go for it."

As he spoke, Joachim turned slightly to the side, revealing a long, shimmering silver corridor behind him.

"...Who exactly are you?"

Instead of moving forward immediately, Bronya stared intently at the brown-haired boy and asked.

She increasingly felt that this Joachim was not a simple person.

Faced with the girl's question, Joachim simply smiled and said, "You will understand."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bronya and Seele simultaneously felt their feet sink into the void, their bodies being sucked into the silver corridor.

Chapter 82: The Youth and the Ancestor, the Ultimate Battle Between the World and the Karmic Demon

The quantum sea, deep within.

Two beams of light, one black and one white, chased and clashed with each other, each collision accompanied by a violent roar and terrifying aftershocks like stars colliding.

Under the overwhelming tides of energy, the world bubbles, which should have been ubiquitous like bacteria, perished en masse, prematurely reaching their end, leaving the entire sea area empty for a time.

when!

The baseball bat was raised to block another black and gold bat that was thrusting straight at him. Shihen looked at the bat in front of him, which was still in a mostly intact position, and couldn't help but feel envious.

Under the influence of the Collapse energy level, which far surpassed his own, Kevin's strength and defense became incredibly powerful, and even the baseball bats he constructed were much more stable than his.

After countless exchanges, his baseball bat had already shown obvious signs of damage, but Kevin's spirit remained as strong as ever.

"Boss Kevin, of all the opponents I've encountered so far, your strength is undoubtedly the strongest."

Looking into the ancestor's cold, icy blue eyes, Shihen spoke earnestly.

"..."

Kevin paused slightly, somewhat puzzled by the boy's reason for saying those words.

Shouldn't it be taken for granted that he is the strongest?

After thinking for a moment, Kevin nodded slightly in response: "If we use humans as the standard, you are also the strongest opponent I have ever seen."

If you had been born in my time, perhaps the fates of us would have been different.

In his view, the boy's power had now completely surpassed that of Alicia, and he even showed signs of surpassing him.

If they had had such a force in the final battle back then, their chances of victory might have been much greater.

"If I had appeared 50,000 years ago, the title of the strongest would not have belonged to you, Boss Kevin."

With a smile, Shihen suddenly turned and swept his leg towards Kevin's head.

Bang!

Just as Kevin raised his arm to block the kick, he saw the boy's other foot already kicking towards his chest.

A tremendous force struck straight to the lungs, and the boy took the opportunity to escape.

"Gu..."

A muffled groan escaped Kevin's throat, and he involuntarily took a half-step back, dusting off his chest as he looked at the boy in the distance with more appreciation in his eyes. "Excellent combat skills."

Although he was slightly inferior in strength, the boy's fighting skills were undoubtedly superior to his.

"Boss Kevin, the real battle... is about to begin."

With a light laugh, Shihen suddenly turned around and kicked the badly damaged silver baseball bat in his hand.

Swish!

Like a bullet fired from a gun, the silver baseball bat transformed into a streak of light and shot away.

The black tattered wings on his back suddenly unfurled, blocking the ray of light like a shield. Kevin's eyes showed a hint of interest, and he said calmly, "Come on."

Without keeping the ancestor waiting any longer, Shihen immediately reached out and made a grasping motion towards Kevin.

The next second, a giant ice crystal dragon hundreds of meters long suddenly soared into the air, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced on Kevin.

Facing the dragon, which was the size of a mountain, Kevin remained calm. With a slight narrowing of his eyes, a piece of equally thick black prism shot out from the air.

With both claws outstretched, the ice crystal dragon gripped the black crystal firmly, then suddenly spun around and unleashed a powerful tail whip at Kevin, its force as heavy as a collapsing mountain.

Seeing the white tail rapidly growing larger and filling his entire field of vision, Kevin didn't hesitate to leap forward and smash his baseball bat at the dragon's tail with all his might.

boom!

In this clash of vastly different sizes, the ice crystal dragon was undoubtedly the first to collapse.

Like an egg dropped on a hard block of iron, the dragon's tail broke off inch by inch, turning into countless fragments that flew out in all directions.

But without a moment's mourning for its tail, the dragon, still retaining its upper body, opened its mouth wide and swallowed Kevin along with the remains of its tail.

But just as it swallowed Kevin, an incredibly intense black-gold light suddenly shone, causing countless cracks to appear all over the dragon's body.

Bang!

With a deafening roar, the upper body of the ice crystal dragon finally shattered, and the somewhat disheveled Kaiwen transformed into a streak of black light and charged toward the boy.

Knowing how terrifying Kevin's power was, Shihen naturally had no intention of continuing to clash with the ancestor. With a flap of his wings, he transformed into light and retreated rapidly, leaving behind only one after another of ice crystal dragons roaring and revealing their forms, launching a fearless, suicidal attack on Kevin.

Kevin couldn't help but be surprised as he watched the series of ice crystal dragons appear.

Even though he was not as powerful as him in terms of energy level, the boy's excellent control over Honkai energy allowed him to mobilize a large amount of Honkai energy in a short period of time, thus achieving an output power that was not much worse than his.

In fact, it surpasses him in terms of exquisiteness.

While he could only condense Honkai energy into ice crystals, the boy seemed to imbue these ice crystal creations with a kind of spirit.

Is this the boy's innate talent, or his power as a Herrscher?

As Kevin pondered silently, his anticipation for the boy before him grew stronger.

Even so, Kevin did not soften his movements in the slightest.

The blue light in his eyes intensified, and clusters of black ice crystals rose from the ground under Kevin's control, intertwining and piercing towards the blue and white dragon.

In an instant, the white dragon roared and flew, while the black ice crystals silently thrust forward. The two clashed back and forth, quickly transforming the entire quantum sea into a forest of solidified ice.

Two different colored ice creations fought fiercely, with dragons being pierced and destroyed almost every second, and black crystals being broken and shattered by the dragons.

Amidst the battle between the ice creations, two beams of light, one black and one white, darted through the fray, shattering the dragons and black crystals in their wake, leaving behind only countless quietly floating fragments of ice.

After a long while, when the entire sea was covered with black and white ice crystal debris, Shihen and Kevin finally slowed down.

Bang!

White wings folded in front of him to block Kevin's downward strike. Shihen's body shot out like a cannonball, smashing through several larger pieces of ice before finally coming to a stop.

Kevin let out a long breath, looked down at the boy whose aura had clearly weakened, and stopped at a distance without giving chase.

"As expected, if we only compare the collapsed form, Kevin, you're still stronger."

He flapped his wings, shaking off a large number of tattered feathers, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth as he spoke, his face still bearing a calm smile.

Even though Kevin temporarily compensated for his lack of strength with skill, he was not an opponent that could be easily defeated.

However, once the battle drags on, his disadvantage in strength becomes apparent.

Having fought to this point, his strength was almost depleted, while Kevin's condition remained strong.

This is the absolute difference in strength between the two.

"You seem to be hiding something."

Kevin glanced at the boy's disheveled state and spoke calmly.

From the moment the other person appeared in front of him, he vaguely sensed that the boy had been preparing something.

"It seems that Boss Kevin's intuition is also very sharp."

With a soft sigh, Shihen's antlers and wings quickly disappeared, and he transformed back into Tianyuan from his collapsed form.

Even though he has completely subdued the Collapsed Form, when it comes to the degree of control over power, the Heavenly Origin Form is still the way he is used to.

"Aren't you going to continue fighting?"

Kevin asked casually.

"Boss Kevin, what does a weapon really mean to you?"

"I haven't risen to the same height as Kevin," Shihen asked with a smile, looking up.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Kevin's eyes flashed with contemplation. He looked at the black and gold baseball bat in his hand before slowly speaking, "A sword can become my weapon because only I can break it with my own hands."

Whether it's the Celestial Judgment already in Durandal's hands, or the baseball bat he has now constructed with his own power, his requirement for weapons has always been the same—that they can withstand his own power.

"But for me, a sword becomes my weapon simply because it happens to be in my hand, nothing more."

With a light laugh, Shihen slightly opened his palm, and a golden knight's longsword slowly materialized.

Out of respect for Kevin, he was unwilling to use the Judgment of Heavenly Fire to fight him.

Therefore, he chose Durandal.

After the World Bubble within Durandal's body was reconnected to the Imaginary Tree with the help of the [Shugs] clan, the holy sword [Durandal] wielded by the girl could be shared with others, and the wielder would also receive the blessing of the Star Anchor.

This time, the boy is not fighting alone!

"Then show me your sword."

He spoke in a detached tone, but a hint of anticipation rose in Kevin's eyes.

"According to the conventions of this world, I should actually say now..."

After a slight pause, Shi Hen's lips curled into a confident smile. "Respond to me, [Durandal]!"

As soon as the boy finished speaking, the knight's longsword in his hand burst forth with dazzling light, and the brilliant gold spread towards the white robe on the boy's body.

Golden scale armor replaced the white robe on Shihen's body, with a white gemstone emitting a moonlight-like luster on his chest, and a silver-white cloak symbolizing a strongman extending from his shoulders and fluttering.

"The power of the quantum sea?"

Kevin murmured to himself, having seen through the essence of the boy's power at a glance.

"I prefer to call it the power of the world."

Looking up at the endless depths above, Shihen smiled.

If we must define it using stars and abyss, then the Sea of ​​Quanta should undoubtedly be classified as the abyss.

Interestingly, the power of the Quantum Sea is closely related to the stars.

Stars and abyss may be consistent in some sense.

Shaking his head to dismiss these thoughts, Shihen's gaze returned to the white-haired man in front of him, and he said with a smile, "Boss Kevin, have you ever seen what it looks like when the world collapses?"

"Then let me see what you call the world."

As Kevin calmly spoke, the black and gold baseball bat in his hand suddenly extended forward, growing a section of black ice crystal, and quickly thickened, making the entire bat look like a giant hammer.

Without saying another word, Shihen twirled the [Yulandel] sword and then casually tucked it into his waistband before slowly taking half a step forward.

Even among those who are star anchors, the blessings each person receives will differ depending on their individual aptitude.
