Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

"Perhaps there is another Yaezakura in another world, and her life path will be completely different from mine, but that is her, not me - just like the Sakura in the paradise who looks like me."

At this point, she smiled lightly and added,

"Even if that Miss Anna really had the chance to know Lin Weijun's secrets like I do, I'm sure her answers would be the same as mine."

"……Yeah?"

Lin Wei pondered for a moment, then smiled.

"Being accepted by you to this extent, it seems that I have really become half a local?"

"Lin Weijun is Lin Weijun, nothing else."

Yaezakura said firmly,

"I think Ling has the same idea, which is why she is so confident in entrusting herself to you."

“…Haha, really?”

Lin Wei seemed to have untied a knot in his heart, not too big or too small, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Sakura."

What kind of existence is a “traveler”?

In Lin Wei's view, they are born troublemakers, plunderers, and even destroyers.

Because of this, Lin Wei always has an inexplicable sense of debt deep in his heart towards those who accepted and trusted him, feeling that he had just deceived their feelings in a despicable way.

Because of this, Lin Wei always consciously or unconsciously draws a subtle line in his heart, telling himself not to cross it easily.

Even now, Lin Wei still couldn't understand why his existence was a hidden danger that would subtly destroy the future that the world should have, but neither Yaezakura nor Ling had ever expressed any negative thoughts about it.

Even the always cautious and conservative Fu Hua easily acknowledged his existence and even gave him her memories of this part to preserve...

"What virtue can I have?"

Ever since escaping the survival crisis and having enough free time and energy, Lin Wei always asks himself this question from time to time.

"Hehe, if there's a chance, I'll slowly look for the answer later."

Watching the tsunami in the distance sweeping across the harbor in an instant, swallowing everything, and coming in overwhelming force; Lin Wei smiled lightly, putting aside the questions that he could not figure out for the time being,

"Whether it's to make amends, repay a debt, or simply be destiny, I will face the horrific devastation of the Houkai..."

He stretched out his hand gently, and a dull black ball appeared in his hand.

"Whether it's for others or for ourselves..."

"Ying! Ling! Help me one more time!"

"Ha ha……"

Yaezakura smiled lightly and said nothing.

It is precisely because this man, although he always claims to be "selfish", has never actually been selfish, always gives a lot and asks for very little, that they sincerely recognize and believe in him.

Outside, the situation changed suddenly.

"Projection·Ninth God's Key·Star Sea Harmony" A dull black light flashed by, and the increasingly violent sea breeze beside Lin Wei's ears suddenly stopped. The whole world fell silent at this moment, and only Anna's anxious shouts could be heard from the distance behind him.

"Lin Wei, be careful!"

The terrifying water wall that covered the sky and seemed to be a hundred meters high came in an instant. Lin Wei was like an ant that could be crushed in front of it.

"Wow!"

The moment it touched him, it was as if an invisible giant axe chopped down vertically, splitting the terrifying giant wall that seemed like a world-destroying disaster into a huge gap more than ten meters wide, crushing countless Honkai beasts trapped in it, and protecting himself and the two girls, Anna and Jill behind him, from the invasion of sea water and monsters.

"not enough!"

Lin Wei shouted, and the holy mark behind him emitted a brilliant light in an instant. At this moment, it burst out with all its strength. There was a loud bang, as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting apart. The huge wall that had already had a gap collapsed in an instant over a wide area of ​​nearly 300 meters!

In an instant, the huge area with a radius of more than 300 meters centered on Lin Wei was like an invisible huge fortress, silently and firmly blocking the terrible flood that seemed to be destroying the world, forcing the terrible huge waves that seemed to be carrying the will of the gods to compromise and give in, circling hundreds of meters to the left and right, leaving a huge gap, as if admitting defeat.

Without the obstruction of huge waves, the sea in the distance is clearly visible - as calm as ever.

"Is it...successful?"

Behind him in the distance, Jier looked at this scene that seemed like a miracle in a daze, muttering to himself.

She had never thought that she would be able to participate in such a magnificent scene at such a close distance. For a moment, her heart was overwhelmed with emotion and she couldn't control herself.

"Lin Wei..."

Unlike her, Anna understood Lin Wei's true situation better, and was worried about the figure in the distance who was desperately trying to stop the disaster.

"No, it's still not enough!"

Different from Jie'er's idea, Lin Wei was shouting and was extremely dissatisfied with the current results of the battle.

He had only opened a gap of 300 meters, which sounded large, but compared to the huge wave that stretched for who knows how many kilometers from north to south, it was just a drop in the ocean!

Could Rita, who was far away on the other side of the city, see such a small gap? Could she understand the efforts she had made here?

If not, can she still calm people's hearts and organize the defense line tacitly?

With such a narrow gap and such high waves, how much safety zone can be created? Can Chen Tianwu and his companions escape successfully?

And Anna and Jill, the two of them accompanied him to such a far and dangerous place to make trouble. If this is all the results they achieved, when they are surrounded by Honkai beasts like a tide from all directions, can they escape safely?

"If I can't do it, what's the point of me going through so much trouble?!"

Lin Wei shouted angrily, trying to squeeze out all his strength, but still with little effect.

Reality is not anime. You can't easily become powerful and sweep everything by shouting weird words like "partners" or "bonds".

His already limited strength was almost drained in an instant, and the power of the stigma was also rapidly overdrawn; on the back of his hand, the erosion lines of the collapse energy that had disappeared for a long time reappeared and spread towards his wrist like a reptile.

Lin Wei gritted his teeth, becoming increasingly anxious, and turned a blind eye to it.

Pandora noticed that Lin Wei's physical condition began to deteriorate, and the projected Key of God began to fade, and she wanted to forcibly end Lin Wei's adventure.

“Don’t stop!”

Lin Wei roared like an angry lion, tightly gripping the Key of God in his hand, and stopped the Key of God from acting on its own.

"Om..."

Pandora hummed a little aggrievedly and cooperated with his actions reluctantly.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Wei manipulated gravity to fly into the sky, wanting to use height to exchange for a larger range, but unfortunately, the effect was still not as expected.

The waves had gradually begun to recede, and were gradually converging and merging into one thousands of meters behind Lin Wei and the other two. All his efforts were meaningless at this moment.

"hateful……"

Lin Wei was a little unwilling.

He didn't understand why he was trying so hard. It was obvious that these had nothing to do with him. He could just close his eyes and pretend not to see!

But at this moment, he only knew that he didn't want to see Rita die here, he didn't want to see Anna die here, and he didn't want to see Chen Tianwu and his sister who took the initiative to face their fate...

These people who should not have died here gathered here and faced serious danger because of their self-righteousness. They came here and worked hard because they believed in themselves. How could I let them down?

And there's Jier and her Valkyrie team. Those Valkyries who fought desperately in desperate situations just died so meaninglessly. Isn't it a pity?

There are also tens of thousands of survivors who have just experienced terrible things and are waiting to usher in a new life;

And further away from the defense line, there were Valkyries and survivors he didn't know, all fighting and struggling desperately in every corner of this land...

These magnificent scenes that I have seen with my own eyes and heard with my own ears, as well as those that I have not seen or heard but can easily guess by thinking about them with my heart, are spread out behind me;

This is the most magnificent and beautiful picture that mankind has created for survival and civilization for self-salvation!

They are right behind him, and he is now standing in front of everyone and is the last line of defense!

How could Lin Wei allow himself to be ignored by Honkai like this, like a clown who was trying to stop a chariot with his bare hands and overestimating his own capabilities?

"I don't want to die. I want to live well, that's right..."

Lin Wei, who tried his best but still felt powerless, murmured to himself sadly,

"But do the others deserve to die?"

It is because we know the preciousness of life that we want to cherish the lives of others. Is there anything wrong with that?

"Lin Wei, stop it, it's enough!"

Anna's crying voice was a little hazy in the distance.

"Failed?"

Lin Wei, whose physical strength was almost exhausted and whose body was eroded to an unknown extent by the collapse, smiled bitterly.

"Forget it, now that things have come to this, what else is there to say? Let's just treat this adventure game as coming to an end..."

"It's just that I'm so unwilling..."

Lin Wei's consciousness began to become hazy and drowsy, and his figure floating in the sky seemed to be shaky.

But the more hazy your consciousness is, the more likely it is that strange ideas that are unimaginable under normal circumstances will flash out from the depths of your soul.

Lin Wei instinctively grasped the sudden flash of inspiration in his mind, woke up with a start, and shouted to the sky,

"Alicia!"

"If you still loved humans, you would have seen what happened today!"

"In that case, give me a hand!"

"Click..."

Lin Wei heard a crisp sound coming from the depths of his consciousness, as if a flower carved from crystal suddenly shattered, splashing out an indescribably magnificent picture.

For a moment, Lin Wei's mind went blank. He only vaguely felt that at that moment, he seemed to be more powerful than ever before...

………………

Destiny headquarters, floating island.

"Your Majesty Bishop!"

The amber eyepiece suddenly lit up, and after taking a look, he quickly raised his head and reported to the blond man on the high seat.

"The intelligence department sent a test report, and they detected an extremely powerful energy in Southeast Asia! They speculate it might be..."

"The Herrscher."

Otto interrupted gently, his tone not showing any surprise at all. Instead, he looked at the scene on the screen with great interest, a strange smile on his lips.

"Uh?"

Amber was a little surprised by the bishop's calmness, and couldn't help but cast her eyes on the huge screen.

The screen was a satellite surveillance image: a vast ocean, a huge continent, a string of countless islands, and a huge dark cloud that looked like a stain...

Amber knew that this was the scene in Southeast Asia. The area covered by dark clouds was the Philippines, which was currently suffering from the devastation.

"This is……"

Amber exclaimed in surprise—she saw a huge hole opening above the dark cloud.

That hollow, spacious and vast space allows the sunlight to break through the dark clouds and shine onto the earth; it also allows the ravaged earth and city to be seen from the sky.

“Walter, it’s really you…”

Otto muttered to himself somewhat listlessly,

"You're just as stubborn and boring as ever!"

………………

Manila, Philippines.

"Lin Wei!"

Anna wiped away her tears, stared at the figure falling from the sky with her red and swollen eyes, ran over desperately, jumped high, hugged him in her arms, and cried loudly.

"Idiot! You're such a fool!"

Chapter 204: Retreat

Manila, Philippines.

The sky is cloudless, the air is clear and the sun is shining.
