Collapse, I am actually in the villain camp

They seemed to be outsiders, just watching a film from the past, and they did not have the opportunity to do anything and change the past like the previous trials.

Alicia's beautiful face did not seem to be happy about her gorgeous dress. Instead, there was a hint of worry between her brows, as if she was worried about something.

However, not long after, her worries disappeared with the arrival of a person.

Weiwei, the director of the "Fire Moth Engineering Department", became the first visitor to this elaborately decorated hall.

It was also from Velvi that Li Wen and Kiana finally learned the whole story - Alicia was actually a Herrscher!

The thirteenth Herrscher? An unrecorded existence?

Moreover, this hall, which was carefully decorated by Alicia, was not prepared for any festival celebration, but a place to attack Alicia?

The reason why Alicia dressed up was just to meet her "end" here.

When they thought of this, Li Wen and Kiana felt a little heavy.

After all, they both had encountered Alicia many times during these trials.

Because of each other's enthusiasm and friendliness, they have always had a very good impression of each other.

But there was one thing they couldn't figure out.

Unlike Ling, Alyssia is not a stranger to the "Fire Moth". She is a fusion warrior who has always fought against Honkai. And judging from the previous situations, Alyssia's status in the entire "Fire Moth" is definitely not low.

Since Alicia still maintains her normal will, there is no reason for the "Fire Moth" to attack Alicia. Dr. Mei is definitely not someone who can make such a decision.

The two people who couldn't figure it out just continued to watch the next content.

Soon after, Aponia, Eden, and even Kevin rushed into this elaborately decorated hall.

After that, the people present waited for a long time, but still no fifth visitor came.

Seeing that only four people arrived, Alicia looked a little disappointed.

Weiwei seemed to realize her frustration and offered solace, "Those who left refused to attack because they believed in Alicia. Those present attended the banquet because they believed in Alicia."

Velvet's comfort was very effective, and Alicia soon regained her smile, blooming with dazzling colors again.

"There are no Herrschers here, only heroes who go by the name of 'True Self.'" Kevin also spoke immediately.

Among the four people present, Eden had already heard Alicia's confession, Aponia had also sensed clues through the thread of fate, and Velvet had even relied on her own intelligence to deduce the general situation.

Only Kevin didn't know the real truth, but he still chose to believe his comrades.

The final farewell was joyful, just what Alicia wanted to see.

It was also during the conversation between these five people that Li Wen and Kiana finally learned the full story of the incident.

Alicia was born a Herrscher, but she truly became a "human."

And ultimately, he relied on his own power and his own end to unite the remaining humans.

"madness."

Perhaps the other party's behavior was very respectable, but if it were in the past, Li Wen would have uttered these two words without hesitation.

However, looking at the girl who was smiling sincerely, he couldn't utter these two words no matter what.

Now that all the props prepared by Weiwei have been played with, it is time to say goodbye.

At this time, the previous joy had disappeared, and Velvi, Aponya, Eden, and Kevin all showed very sad expressions.

"Okay, from now on, let them accompany you as 'Alishia'." Alishia condensed four crystal flowers in front of her.

"Even if I'm gone, these four crystal flowers will never wither. So... everyone, smile, okay?"

Alicia made her request, pushing a crystal flower in front of Velvet. "Come here, Velvet. I'm sorry, I told such a big lie... I hope the claim of being the Thirteenth Herrscher won't cause you too much trouble."

She gave an apologetic look. "After all, I am such a special existence... Telling the truth would probably only cause more unrest."

Weiwei took a few deep breaths and forced a gentle expression on her face. "Don't worry, Alicia. I will use several lies to cover it up... to protect your secret.

"Deceiving the world, deceiving history, is not a difficult task for me. Let the Thirteenth Herrscher become a blank page in the book."

Only after hearing this did Li Wen finally understand why there was no mention of the "Thirteenth Herrscher" in any relevant information.

Wei Erwei continued, "As for Ying Jie who didn't show up today... I think their absence is the best proof.

"Those who left the banquet refused to attack because they believed in Alicia; those who were present attended the banquet because they believed in Alicia.

"Look... the people you trust always trust you. The people you love always love you."

"Well, thank you. I didn't expect that..." When Alicia heard Weiwei's words, a slight tremor appeared in her voice. "I... am really happy."

In order to prevent herself from crying, she quickly changed the subject and said, "It's a pity that dear Mebius is not here, otherwise I would like to give her a green crystal flower."

Velvet also helped Mebius explain the specific situation at this time, "After receiving the report from the Fire Moth about the 13th Herrscher, she threw them into the shredder without even looking at them.

"After all, it's that Mobius. Maybe she's seen through everything and doesn't want you to say goodbye to her as you wish, so she refused to attend.

"Of course, it's also possible that she just doesn't want to be seen crying?"

Although Mebius has always shown her dislike for Alicia, anyone with a discerning eye can see that her attitude towards Alicia has always been unusual.

"Yes, Mobius always has such a girlish side." As if thinking of Mobius's red eyes from crying, Alicia also chuckled.

If possible, she really wants to see it.

Then she turned her gaze to Aponia, who was wearing a gorgeous dress, "Well, Aponia... although the "deepest place" no longer exists, I know that it still exists deep in your heart, right?

"The threads of fate can no longer bind you, so why not step out of that cage once in a while and take a look around?"

"For me, 'the deepest place' is outside the cage. But that's no longer important... I've already stepped into the sunlight." Aponya's voice choked with emotion, "Because, you are here."

After calming down a bit, she continued, "So, I don't want your 'story' to become a forgotten thing.

"I will remember everything about you in the Promised Land, and read through it carefully over a long period of time, waiting for someone with the same aspirations as you to visit.

“Then, I look forward to the day when ‘this page’ is turned over again.”

"Yeah, sure." Alicia nodded vigorously. "I'm looking forward to it too... After all, it's my 'story'."

Then, Alicia turned her gaze to Eden, her best friend, "Eden...this time, we really have to say goodbye.

"I'm sorry, I kept it a secret from you before. You won't hate me, will you?"

"How could that be, Ellie?" Eden shook his head, his voice a little hoarse, "I understand you, maybe I am the person who understands you best in the world.

“And, there’s no need to say goodbye.

"You're still 'here,' aren't you? You'll be with the heavens and the earth... forever."

“Then, no matter where I am or what I have become, I will sing for you.

"Until the last moment."

Hearing Eden's words, Alicia laughed, "Okay, it's our promise after all...

"No matter what the ending is, we must see it together... okay?"

After deciding the final outcome with Eden, Alicia finally turned her attention to the last visitor, "As for Kevin... Actually, I don't have anything to tell you.

"You are a true hero, the undisputed leader of the Thirteen Heroes.

"If there is one person who can "support" humanity towards a tomorrow without collapse, then... that person must be you."

Alicia gave a very high evaluation of Kevin.

"However, I have one last request, which is about the question you've never told me the answer to..." Alicia showed a curious look, "I really want to know - Kevin, if you shed tears, will they freeze?"

Kevin remained silent and did not answer. He seemed unable to control his emotions and two lines of tears flowed from his eyes.

"Oh, I'm just asking, please don't really cry... behave more like a boy, okay?" Seeing that Kevin, who was always strong, also shed tears, Alicia acted a little flustered.

"But...thank you, now...I know the answer.

"Look, it really freezes...

"But...it's so warm..."

……

Watching the conversation between the five people, Li Wen and Kiana felt increasingly depressed.

But they are just outsiders and can do nothing but watch.

……

Soon, the conversation between the heroes ended.

Alicia said her final goodbye to everyone.

Then she activated her power for the first and last time.

Her body was enveloped in light, like an illusory mirage, and soon Alicia's figure completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

Jingle Bell--

The sound of the two bells seemed to still be echoing, Alicia's smile was still rippling in people's hearts, and everyone was still standing there, without moving at all.

After a while, the four people finally came to their senses and left the hall with heavy steps.

Following Alicia's passing, Aponia also walked out of the hall and looked towards the sky.

Countless glowing threads had once gathered there, and the "strings of fate" that only she could see were gradually disappearing into nothingness.

It seems as if a pair of hands arranging the stars are erasing the originally predetermined future one by one.

Chapter 70: Ending and Inheritance (Two in One)

……

With the disappearance of Alicia, everything returned to the collapse, and the scene before her eyes froze and merged again.

When the picture became clear again, what appeared before my eyes was a desolate and ruined scene.

Li Wen took a quick glance and found a familiar figure in this desolate land.

At this moment, they are fighting against an extremely huge existence.

"The Ruler of the End."

Although he didn't know him well, the moment he felt his power, Li Wen slowly uttered the other party's name.

So, this is the moon? Is the battle unfolding before our eyes the final "Final War" of the previous civilization?

When Li Wen focused his gaze on that enormous existence, his eyes froze instantly.

He discovered that the being called "Hersher of the End" actually looked very similar to Kiana.

This is not a coincidence.

In the information he obtained, the Herrschers of the previous civilization and the Herrschers of the current civilization both appeared to have extremely similar appearances.

For example, the Second Herrscher and Sirin of the previous civilization, the Third Herrscher and Raiden Mei of the previous civilization, etc.

This is clearly not a coincidence.

If you have to say it, this makes Li Wen feel a sense of reincarnation and fate.

Could it be that Kiana will become the body of the Herrscher of the End?

Indeed, from the perspective of personal qualities, Kiana is indeed a very suitable candidate.

After all, Kiana's predecessor was Sirin, who once controlled the six Herrscher cores.

It was precisely based on this situation that "Anti-Entropy" once proposed a plan to create an artificial Ruler of the End. However, considering the stability of its plan, it was not fully implemented in the end and has always been in the planning stage.

Originally, Li Wen didn't think this was a good idea, but now after seeing the appearance of the Herrscher of the End, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart - could the plan based on the "anti-entropy" theory really help Kiana become an artificial End, and thus help the Earth escape the cleansing of the Herrscher of the End?

After seeing the face in the sky, Kiana trembled her lips a few times, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't speak and just looked at it quietly.

Looking at the face that looked like her own, she seemed to have some doubts in her heart.

Just as the two were lost in thought, the situation on the battlefield had changed dramatically.

Less than five minutes after the battle began, Qianjie and Padufilis, two of the Thirteen Heroes, were killed in battle one after another. The genius work that Vilvi had always been proud of was also beaten to pieces in this fierce battle and turned into fragments on the ground.

It’s not that they are weak, but that the enemy is too powerful.

Frankly speaking, the combat effectiveness of any one of these people in front of us is basically the top combat effectiveness in the current civilization.

Even Padofelice, who has never been good at fighting, is like this.
