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

"Thank you, I'm very happy." Hearing the boy's words, Alicia immediately laughed happily, "But you can't say this to other girls casually."

The boy is also very cute and easy to like.

But not every girl has such an omnipotent girlish heart like hers.

Well, in short, thick-skinned.

"..."

Glancing at the person who was unscrupulously acting as the Sea King in the previous civilization, Shi Hen pursed his lips and said nothing.

"I'm really happy to be with you." She walked briskly to the boy and looked into his deep and dark eyes. A trace of disappointment appeared on her face. "But, you have to leave eventually, right?"

She belongs to the unchangeable past, while the boy will continue to explore the future.

"This world is still waiting for me to save it."

Shi Hen raised his head slightly and said confidently.

A mere Final Boss, you want to snatch the position of the final boss from him?

"Really?"

Covering her mouth lightly with one hand, Alicia raised an eyebrow at the boy.

In the battle just now, she was the winner.

"Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't look down on the poor young man." Seeing the teasing in the girl's eyes, Shi Hen was immediately angry, "Ailixia, I..."

"I believe in you." Ai Lishia said softly, interrupting the boy's declaration, "Hen, I believe you can go further than any of us."

Although she couldn't fully see the secret of Shi Hen, the girl had already glimpsed a talent that was far superior to hers.

At the beginning of the battle, the opponent is not yet able to fully control his own power.

But soon, the boy improved at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he absorbed the skills she demonstrated like a sponge.

In the end, she was only able to defeat the young man because of the experience she had accumulated from years of fighting.

And this monstrous fighting talent is just one of the boy's qualities.

This young boy, who is still a mystery, will definitely surpass everyone of their time in the future. Even the destination that is beyond their reach is just the beginning of another journey for him.

She believed all of this so sincerely.

"..." Looking at the calm and indifferent smile on the girl's face, Shi Hen was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Isn't that natural?"

He also believed what Alicia believed.

In this dance, he actually has a chance to win, as long as he uses the resurrection armor to start the second chapter.

But, there is no need.

This was just a dance done for fun, and both he and Alicia had already enjoyed it to their heart's content.

So after he was no longer able to maintain his Tianyuan and Herrscher forms, the girl took the initiative to bring the dance to an end.

“So, I love Lisia, the second of the Thirteen Fire Chasers, the deputy leader of the Fusion Warriors, and the human who bears the mark of [True Self].

I recognize you."

The girl whispered softly, standing on tiptoe and leaving a light kiss on the boy's forehead.

"..."

Shi Hen was stunned, not only because of Alicia's sudden kiss, but also because of the subtitles that suddenly flashed before his eyes:

[Side Quest: Paradise of the Past: You have come to the tomb built by the previous civilization. Explore everything inside as much as you can and find the deepest secrets hidden by the Fire Moth. (Completed)]

[You have received the reward: Flawless Heart]

[Pure Heart: A pure and flawless heart is the proof of what makes a person human, and it is also the gift given to you by the Origin. No matter what state you are in, you will always maintain your original heart.]

[Main Quest: Path of Destiny: You have become a member of a secret organization that resists the collapse, so hide behind the world and work hard to become the final boss. (Current progress: 10.9%)]

[You have obtained a new phased reward: Blank Herrscher Core.]

[Blank Herrscher Core: A high-energy crystal that contains powerful Honkai energy. It has the mysterious power to communicate with imaginary space. It may change after encountering the authority of other Herrschers.]

In an instant, a new Herrscher Core was generated in Shihen's body, and terrifying Honkai energy surged out from deep within the boy's body. The surging energy tide directly blew the unsuspecting girl away, causing her to sit on the ground with her buttocks.

Not very harmful, but very insulting.

Alicia: "..."

Shi Hen: “…”

Two pairs of eyes, one blue and one black, looked at each other, and both seemed a little embarrassed.

"Hey... I said this was an accident, do you believe it?"

Shi Hen took the initiative to break the awkward silence.

Alicia's brows twitched.

I don't believe you at all, you little devil are such a bad guy!

Secretly rubbing her hips that were a little sore from falling on the ground, Alicia looked at the boy, her gem-like blue eyes blinking curiously: "Is this the gift you got from imaginary numbers?"

After witnessing Shi Hen obtain a new Herrscher core, she saw the boy's peculiarities more clearly.

It's really weird.

It looks weird no matter how you look at it.

She had never seen a Herrscher Core that looked so unlike a Herrscher Core.

Normally, the Herrscher Core possesses its own unique powers.

Just as there are no two leaves in the world that are exactly the same, the Herrscher Core also has unique attributes.

But the Herrscher core on the boy... not only could she not see its attributes, but the two cores were exactly the same! ?

It's really fucking weird.

“I guess so.” Nodding, Shi Hen opened his hand and summoned the newly acquired Herrscher Core, “How about you keep it for me for a while?”

As he spoke, Shi Hen threw the core directly at the girl.

If there are two cores in his body, he will not be able to hide his identity using the previous method.

Moreover, even if we only consider the combat power, simply stacking the number of cores does not make much sense. It only increases the energy intensity by a few thousand.

At his level, the control over Honkai energy and the authority of the Herrscher are the real sources of combat power.

If he obtains the authority of the Herrscher of Fire, he can still fight Alicia even if his Honkai energy strength is only 5000HW.

And there is a high probability of winning.

"Huh? Why? You don't want it?"

After catching the core, Alicia asked in confusion.

Is the Herrscher Core such a casual thing?

Even though there seemed to be some problems with this core, she could still feel the extremely abundant Honkai energy from it.

In terms of energy intensity alone, it is definitely not inferior to any Herrscher core.

"I'm just going to keep it with you for a while." Shi Hen explained, "Also, do you mind adding another person to the Thirteen Heroes?"

With this Herrscher Core as an anchor, and something he hasn't gotten yet, he can already perform some cool moves.

I think, when Mei comes to the paradise of the afterlife in the future, she will be very surprised to see him, right?

"Ok?"

Alicia blinked.

"There are fourteen of the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire. This should be reasonable, right?"

The corners of Shi Hen's mouth slowly curled up.

Chapter 63 Promotion and Salary Increase

[Novice Mission: Saint Freya's Gate: You have already had a preliminary understanding of the madness of this world. It is time to join a secret organization that fights against the collapse and find a group of like-minded companions to save the world. (Completed)]

[You have received the reward: Infinite Snake]

[Infinite Snake: The endlessly eating giant snake is your greed that can never be satisfied. When you defeat a fusion warrior, you will obtain the fusion factor from the other party.]

[Currently obtained fusion factor: None. ]

"..."

Returning to the Paradise Hall and looking at the subtitles appearing before his eyes, Shi Hen felt that his system, which didn't even deserve a name, was most likely broken.

Have you ever seen anyone who can repeatedly get rewards for novice tasks?

Besides, the Fire Moths have been dead for more than 50,000 years. Do you still want me to go with that group of people to save the world?

This stupid system.

Complaining in his heart, Shi Hen turned around and threw the reward away.

Although the fusion factor is very powerful, look at the few fusion warriors who are still alive today.

Kevin was lying in the Quantum Sea, Su was staying at Thousand Worlds, Fu Hua was hiding in Saint Freya, and as for Theresa... God knows if she can be considered a fusion warrior.

After all, fusion factors also require activation levels, and people like Kaslana with white hair obviously cannot be included in the ranks of fusion warriors.

This system is getting more and more stupid!

If you had allowed me to travel back to the previous era, I would have already reached the end.

After all, even in the Chimaera experiment conducted on Kevin, there is a limit to the fusion factors that can be carried.

And he has already written infinity into the setting.

I don't know whether there will be settlement rewards for playing memory?

Glancing at the door behind him, Shi Hen felt that the probability was not high, otherwise he would have to go back and beat Qianjie up.

This system is stupid, but it really is a lock.

He has been traveling through time for more than a year, and the number of tasks issued by the system is very small, leaving him with no way to get rewards.

As he was thinking, a chill suddenly appeared, causing Shi Hen to shiver subconsciously.

"Boss Kevin?"

Looking up, Shi Hen saw the big icy guy as expected.

"Tell me your name, successor."

With his arms folded across his chest, Kevin looked at the boy coldly.

"mark."

Shi Hen said simply.

Kevin: "..."

Facing the man's cold gaze, Shi Hen knew that the other party wanted more than just a name.

"Shi Hen, the current World Serpent cadre, will definitely become the final boss of this world in the future."

Looking directly into Kevin's ice-blue eyes, Shi Hen spoke every word seriously.

After all, this was a strong candidate who could compete with him for the final boss of the world, so Shi Hen felt that he should be more honest.

This is the respect that Kevin deserves.

"very good."

Kevin nodded slightly.

I don’t know whether I was praising the boy’s ideals or simply admiring his courage.

"Boss Kevin, do you know why birds fly?"

Shi Hen asked with a smile.

As a courtesy, he should also have the qualifications to ask questions, right?

"Because they have to." Kevin said, his tone as cold as the temperature of his body, "Only by flying into the sky can they have the qualification to survive."
