Collapse, harem after the end of the world

Adam retracted his sword, his eyes flickering with thought. He realized that if these phantoms continued to exist, they might become real.

There is absolutely no point in continuing to fight like this.

Unless the space-time channel in the air disappears, there is no end to this matter.

At this moment, a figure flashed by like lightning, almost making it difficult to see clearly. This figure was a young woman, with an elegant figure and a look of determination and resoluteness in her eyes.

At this moment, Yae Sakura showed the true power of the "Momentary" swordsmanship. Her sword moves were so fast that people could not catch them. Every swing of the sword was accompanied by the end of a monster's life.

Yaezakura's swordplay flowed with the force of flowing water, a scene of sheer beauty. With each swing, the blade's edge clashed with the enemy's body, resounding with a resounding tear. The monster's blood gushed out like a fountain, stained her blade with a vibrant crimson. Her movements were as smooth as flowing water, effortless and majestic, like a sword god descended to earth.

However, even though she quickly eliminated the enemy in front of her, more enemies appeared in the next moment. These monsters pounced on her recklessly, roaring, baring their fangs and claws, and emitting a foul odor.

Yaesakura's brow furrowed slightly, her eyes revealing a steely determination. She didn't flinch, but instead stood even more resolutely. With a flick of her body, she dodged like a swallow returning to its nest. Her sword's edge, like lightning, sliced through the air, neutralizing the monster's attack.

Her body seemed to dance through the air, each step calculated and seamless. Her sword strikes were sometimes swift and fierce like a storm, sometimes graceful and elegant like a dancer. Each movement was precise, her blade barely touching her foe, leaving only a flicker of energy before the monster's corpse gently fell to the ground.

At this moment, Yae Sakura seemed to be the only one in the world, her sword dance oblivious to everything around her. The aura she exuded was as oppressive as a mountain, forcing no one to underestimate her.

However, even if Yae Sakura defeated the enemy in front of her, she knew that this was only the beginning of the battle. More enemies would follow, and she had to remain vigilant and calm. She took a deep breath, regained her spirit, and continued to wait for the next wave of enemies to arrive.

At this time, the Valkyries had already deployed the strongest defense line outside Hyperion, stopping countless enemies here.

However, no matter who they were, they all realized that if they continued to fight like this, there would be no end.

As time went on, the enemies they faced grew stronger and stronger, and even multiple enemies appeared.

Take Wendy now, for example. She has just shattered five or six illusions of her past.

"If we continue like this, we won't be able to hold on!"

At this point, everyone's bodies were already beginning to show signs of fatigue, and it would probably be meaningless to continue fighting like this.

"Tesla and the others, aren't they okay yet?!"

In the dimly lit laboratory, silence reigned, with only a faint light dispelling the darkness and illuminating the faces of the three doctors. They worked eagerly, their fingers dancing rapidly across the keyboard, their eyes revealing urgent anxiety.

A stifling atmosphere permeated the laboratory, as if time itself were against them. The particles of time were no longer obeying their rules, becoming tangled and chaotic, incomprehensible. As the problem grew more and more serious, the three doctors felt deeply that time was slipping through their fingers like quicksand.

The clock on the wall ticked silently, each tick like the strike of a judge, urging them on. Time had become a frantic serpent, forcing them to face sudden pressures and unignorable threats. They knew that if they didn't quickly resolve the current predicament, the timeline would collapse completely, and the world would face catastrophe.

The three doctors gazed at the experimental apparatus before them, their hearts filled with endless worry and doubt. Their brows furrowed, sweat dripping from their foreheads, soaking their heavy thoughts. To find the right moment, they constantly explored, trial and error, searching for a solution.

The room was filled with the scent of various experiments, and the faint sound of electricity echoed in the air. The doctors' fingers nimbly tapped the keyboard, each stroke representing a decision, a hope. Their hearts beat faster, and they could almost hear their blood rushing violently, surging like a tidal wave.

In the laboratory, in addition to the three doctors, the three people who had been there were also waiting quietly in the laboratory.

Just in case the correct time channel was opened, the three of them could leave here immediately.

However, the waiting process was undoubtedly extremely torturous for the three of them.

The three of them could only wait here and watch time pass by.

The three of them could do nothing about what was happening outside.

It is impossible to fight those enemies, and it is not possible to fight them at all.

(No kidding! If you die or get hurt, the whole world ends!)

The three of them vaguely remembered that when they wanted to go up and help, Adam rejected them without hesitation.

Because these three people are the key to this timeline. Once they are injured or die, the timeline supported by them will be destroyed in an instant.

No matter what, they must protect the three from any harm, even if the time channel is destroyed.

The consequences of the three deaths are probably a hundred times more serious than the destruction of the time channel.

Time began to pass by minute by minute, and sweat began to drip from the foreheads of the people present.

And at this last moment, Dr. Ein pressed a button for the last time, and the final time node was finally determined.

Chapter 388: Farewell

"Success!"

When Dr. Ein pressed the last button, the passage to the door to the past was finally completely opened.

Along with the roar of lightning and the distortion of time and space, the real space-time channel has been completely opened.

"Can we leave now?"

Looking at the space-time channel in front of her, Kiana [Old] felt a sense of unreality.

Thinking of all the things she had experienced during this period, Kiana [Old] couldn't help but feel like she was in a dream.

"Yes, as long as you pass through here, you can return to your original timeline. However, you may have to wait a while."

In response to Kiana's [old] question, Ein nodded, indicating that it was indeed the case.

However, the three of them cannot leave like this now, because there is still a very important matter in the world that has not been resolved.

Before the three of them could understand what was going on, the next moment, Adam, who looked a little embarrassed, brought the three future people to the laboratory.

"Let's hurry up, time is running out." Adam hurried to the lab and anxiously told everyone present. The situation outside had become precarious, which made him feel more stressed.

"Are you finally here, Adam?" Dr. Ein looked at Adam eagerly, his eyes filled with anticipation. Adam immediately responded, "Yes, we're ready. Now it's time to act." He and the other three had come to this lab, primarily to bid a final farewell to Kiana and the others from the past.

The laboratory environment seemed extremely tense, with various codes and experimental data flashing on the computer screen, and huge maps and complex sketches hanging on the walls.

The atmosphere in the entire laboratory has become extremely heavy.

"Is it really necessary to do something like this?"

Kiana [Old] asked Adam somewhat unwillingly at this time.

They had actually anticipated what was going to happen next.

The purpose of Adam and others coming here, in addition to saying goodbye to them, was more to seal their memories.

But Kiana [Old] was unwilling to accept it. She had finally learned about the future and had formed bonds with different people. How could she give up so easily?

However, at this time, Mei [Old] shook her head slightly.

Because this is something they have to do.

If he and others go back with their memories, it means that this timeline will completely collapse, and the consequence is that everyone here will disappear in an instant.

Even she was reluctant to let go of such memories, but she had to do so in order to protect everyone and this world.

"But……"

"it does not matter."

At this moment, Kiana whispered to her past self: "Don't worry, even if the memory fades, we will still meet again one day, right? Don't forget, I am you."

Kiana's hand gently stroked her cheek, as if to comfort herself.

At this time, the other two were also comforting their past selves. Even though they all knew that separation was so difficult, this was the only way to save the world now.

"Well, goodbye everyone. Although you may not remember what we've experienced during this period, I still want to tell you now. I really enjoyed the time I spent with you."

Adam now began to say his final goodbyes to the three of them.

"Yeah, we're the same."

"Captain, we are also pleased to meet you."

In the past, both Bronya and Mei were very happy that they would be able to meet someone like Adam in the future.

Perhaps, it is because of people like Adam that the future will not be destroyed.

"Goodbye, Captain. Goodbye, me."

Mei and Bronya gradually began to block their memories under Adam's power.

At the last moment, he was thrown into the tunnel.

However, at this moment, Kiana was still standing in front of the passage, with no intention of leaving.

"Hurry up, the passage has become unstable. If we don't go back now, there will be no chance!"

At this time, Ain saw that Kiana had not moved yet, so he hurriedly began to urge her.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

At this time, Adam asked Kiana with some confusion.

"No, nothing, it's just... I want to thank you, Captain, before I leave."

When she knew that her departure was inevitable, Kiana in the past said this to Adam.

"Thank me?"

"That's right. It's because of your encouragement and support, Captain, that I... I've been able to stay the way I am now. Whether it was when I learned about my life story or when I was confused about myself, it was because of you that I was able to..."

"It's nothing." Adam shook his head slightly and said to Kiana, "This kind of thing is what I should do. Didn't you call me captain? As the captain, it's my job to guide the Valkyrie."

Facing Adam's words, Kiana from the past couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Now, I finally understand why my future self fell in love with you, Captain. You really are very handsome."

"Of course. After all, he is my favorite captain."

Kiana said to her past self at this moment.

"Then you better be careful. After all, you have quite a few competitors."

"Hmph! Then let them come at me! I won't admit defeat!"

The two people from the past and the future smiled at each other at this moment, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding.

"Then I shall be leaving, Captain. We shall see each other again in the future."

At this time, after Kiana said her final goodbye to Adam, she suddenly came to Adam and kissed Adam's lips lightly.

While Adam was still not reacting, Kiana rushed directly into the passage as if her prank had succeeded.

"What the hell is going on?"

Looking at Kiana who had left so suddenly, Adam had not yet reacted.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ein and others immediately closed the channel.

As the time tunnel closed, the weather outside gradually began to clear up, and the monsters in the distance also began to dissipate.

"They should have gone back already, right?"

Adam was a little unsure at this time and asked Kiana beside him.

But the next moment, Kiana suddenly kissed Adam.

"I'm back."

Volume 6: Military Advisor and Captain

Chapter 389: The Ferryman in the Quantum Sea

As night falls, the starry sky shimmers. In this vast and mysterious universe, everything is composed of tiny, miraculous quanta. These particles, brimming with uncertainty, seem to speak volumes about their unique existence.

Scientists have discovered that when quantum states are observed, they collapse into a single universe from countless parallel universes. It's like comparing the universe to a glass of water, surrounded by countless identical glasses. Imagine the water overflowing from the glass, flowing along the sides, and forming a small puddle in the middle of the table. This "puddle" doesn't belong to any one "cup," but every drop of "water" in the puddle could have come from any one of them. This unique phenomenon is the "quantum sea," which exists between parallel worlds.

In this mysterious "quantum ocean," people believe that simply crossing it could lead to another universe. However, this is only a theory, and no one truly knows where the end of the "quantum ocean" lies. Is it a bridge to infinite possibilities, or a trap leading to disaster? No one can give a definitive answer.

Only a few are able to enter the "Quantum Ocean," and most are rejected. Those rejected experience discomfort at best, and even coma at worst. This mysterious dimension is fraught with danger, and only a few brave adventurers dare to take the plunge.

Yet, within this perilous "Quantum Sea," a massive ship resembling the Hyperion floats. It stands majestically, commanding attention. The metal of its hull reflects starlight, emitting a mysterious and alluring glow. Faint lights shimmer through its portholes, inviting visitors into this mysterious world.

Inside the ship's wheelhouse, the ferryman sat silently in his chair, his entire figure shrouded in a black cloak, like a silent death. A strong, bloody smell emanated from the cloak, making one shudder.

The cabin was gloomy, highlighting the ferryman's pale face. His eyes were deep and dark, as if hiding endless secrets. Although he exuded an air of death, only his slightly rising and falling chest, like an isolated island, hinted that he still possessed a breath of life.

The ferryman's cloak gleamed metallically in the dim cabin light, revealing the mysterious power still lingering within him. The lines on the cloak twitched slightly with his breathing, like a nimble snake, imbued with boundless power.

His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest, creating a low echo. The world seemed to have fallen silent because of his presence, and a hint of terror permeated the silence.

"We're back!"

At this moment, a lively and clear voice suddenly rang out, breaking the terrifying atmosphere like a stream of clear water. Rosalia and Lilia pushed open the door and walked in lightly.

With the arrival of the two, the atmosphere on the ship became cheerful.
