"Ah." "…………"x2 Silence rarely reappeared between the two of them. "…Wang, why don't we just run away and take Ling with us, no matter where we go." "it is good." "Don't you even ask me why I said that?" "No need." Xiwang said so. "The rest don't matter... There's no connection between the Fire Moth and me. Apart from you and Alicia, Ling and Grayshu... the rest don't matter." "Besides..."
Xi Wang glanced at the dark blue sword placed beside him. "I probably won't be considered a human now, so it doesn't matter if I leave now. I just have to face the punishment of the Fire Moths." "...Okay, Wang, no need to say more." Sakura smiled and gently held his hand, speaking softly. "If we leave, and if the Fire Moths come to attack us, Alicia will definitely come, and then... we will be in trouble." "And you must be a human being... definitely... your problems can definitely be solved, and you will definitely be accepted by others in the end... definitely..." She murmured to herself, and it was clear that her words were meant to comfort Xi Wang, but her expression became increasingly stiff, and her eyes became increasingly dull, as if she was hypnotizing herself. "Ling can do this...it will definitely work..." Ying shed tears, which was rare for her, and told Xiwang what happened to Ling in a halting manner. Ling's situation is somewhat similar to Xiwang's. Both of them were detected to possess huge Honkai energy, and the wavelength of their energy is also very similar to that of the Herrscher. However, Ling did not show any abilities, and she is still that cute girl. In other words... Ling should also be imprisoned. When Alicia came to tell Ying about this, Ying's first reaction was to take Ling away from the Fire Moth, and then find Xiwang, and the three of them simply wandered together. Anyway, human civilization has already lost... Most of Mei and Mobius' plans are based on "leaving hope for the next generation", and most of the Fire Moths' combat power has disappeared due to the "Eleventh Ruler" incident. And the two people he was close to and familiar with were both labeled as "suspected Herrscher", so he might as well just leave and run away, it didn't matter. But in the end, Ling stopped her. Ling didn't want to escape... Since she entered the Fire Moth, she has seen too many tragedies caused by the collapse, and witnessed too many sacrifices. She also gradually understood what her sister and Xiwang's identities really represented. "Sister, I don't want to run away... I also don't want you and Brother Wang to be condemned by the entire human civilization because of me... If that happens, it will be very difficult for you and Brother Wang." This is how Ling comforted Sakura. "Besides, my condition is the same as Brother Wang's, right? In that case, I can also be imprisoned and observed like Brother Wang. After all, I don't show any signs of hostility towards humans, and I don't even have any special abilities... Maybe I am a special existence? Sister Mei should be very concerned, right?"
"By then, maybe we can find out why I became like this? Maybe we can find a new way to fight Honkai? Maybe by then everyone can be like me, surrounded by Honkai energy, but still an ordinary person?" "Sister, don't worry. I'm grown up. I know what Honkai means to us, and I know what I should do... In order to defeat Honkai, it is necessary to pay some price, isn't it? And I am just like Brother Wang, being imprisoned, observed and experimented on. It's nothing." Ling said this to Sakura with a smile. "Everyone is persisting, so I can't give up, and I can't escape... I'm a big girl~" "So, we will win. We will definitely defeat Honkai, sister." Ling's words made Ying not know how to refute. Her sister had unknowingly become more aware than her. But, Ling is right, it is not time to give up yet. Sakura took Ling and found Mei, and Ling voluntarily accepted detention. Sakura got Mei's promise to "do her best to ensure Ling's life safety" and was given the right to visit Ling regularly. As for why it is "try your best" instead of "do your best", this is Ling's request. Because Ling doesn't want to hurt others, and even more so doesn't want to hurt her sister and her brother Wang who always loves her, so... if she is really confirmed to be a "Hersher", then she hopes to be conquered. In order to defeat Honkai, a price must be paid and sacrifices must be made, right? It's all for humanity. But... I'm still a little worried... "........." After Ying finished saying all this in a disjointed manner, she seemed a little tired. She leaned on Xiwang and slowly fell asleep. Sakura didn't ask you for anything, she just needed someone to talk to. She was too nervous, but after saying these words, she felt a lot more relaxed. Being with Xi Wang, she could also take a rare break. Just as Ling said, Sakura also believes that humans will defeat the Houkai... definitely. "........." Xi Wang remained silent and raised his hand slightly. A small blue water ball appeared quietly, and then slowly dissipated, entering her body with Ying's breathing. Soon, Ying's breathing became steady, and her originally frowned brows gradually relaxed. At least let her rest this time. "…Dr. Mei, you're here, right?" Xiwang raised his head slightly and looked towards the observation window. "Please speak, Wang." Mei's weak voice came... Fatigue and collapse were constantly tormenting her, but she couldn't fall down here, she had to hold on. As for the reason why she was here, it was very simple... She came here to give Xiwang a promise, to let him know that although Ling was imprisoned, she was also protected. "Rin...it was her own will, and Sakura agreed, too, right?" "Yes."
"Alicea... knows that too, right?" "Yes." "...Can you promise that you won't kill Ling for any reason other than to become a Herrscher?" "Of course. After all, Ling is a cute and well-behaved girl, isn't she? And she trusts us so much, we should also respond to this trust." "…All this is to defeat Honkai?" "Everything is done to defeat the Honkai." Mei still said so. It’s not time to give up… It’s not the final moment yet… We must not give up. "Everything is to defeat the Honkai...?" Xi Wang chewed over these words, somewhat absent-mindedly. ………… ……………… In the dim light, there seemed to be a horn sound, and the pure white wings trembled, bringing up a large amount of azure "water". In a trance, the holy light fell again, and she walked slowly towards him, holding a pure white lily. She stopped in front of him and handed the lily in her hand to him. 【■■■……】 She seemed to be saying something, but I couldn't understand it. 【■■■……】 Seeing that I ignored her, she called out softly again, took back the lily in her hand, slightly spread her pure white wings, and gently hugged my body. The gentle and soft touch came to me, as if she was comforting me. Chapter 51: Fading like cherry blossoms [Because of Ling's request, Ling voluntarily accepted the imprisonment of the Fire Moth, and voluntarily accepted observation and experiments... This is not a bad thing. After all, the two existing "suspected Herrschers" still have self-awareness and have not madly destroyed human civilization. As long as we move forward steadily and study slowly, we may be able to unravel the strange existence of "Herscher"] [As for the issue of guarding Ling, considering that she is not as powerful as you, the Fire Moth placed her in a base and buried a large number of nuclear bombs in it. Only ordinary personnel were arranged to monitor her. Except for Sakura who visited her regularly and Mei and Mebius who needed to be experimented on, the rest of the personnel had to reduce their contact time with Ling.] [After all, everyone in the Fire Moth knows that you "heroes" have a good relationship with Ling. They are worried that you will let Ling go because of a moment of weakness... It's really hilarious.] [And once they find out that Ling has become the Herrscher, the Fire Moth will directly launch a nuclear bomb to blow up Ling and the entire base.] [There is nothing wrong with this arrangement. After all, Ling is not like you. She is just an ordinary little girl with no power. Therefore, there is no need to arrange "Fusion Warriors" to monitor her, and there is no need to specially transform the entire "Deep Place" to imprison her.] [But… that’s where the problem lies] [In this extremely high-pressure environment, even a determined person would find it difficult to sustain, let alone an ordinary person] [At the beginning, it was okay. The Fire Moth guards were quite friendly to Ling. After all, they had seen this cute little girl before. Although they were not familiar with her, they knew that Ling was Sakura's sister. Therefore, there were no problems in the early stage of her imprisonment. When Sakura came to visit Ling, they even entertained her warmly.] [But... as time went on, fear and loneliness began to spread, and the mental torture began to manifest itself]
[The "Eighth Herrscher" made people's spirits fragile, the "Ninth Herrscher" destroyed human industry, the "Tenth Herrscher" disrupted society and spread the seeds of doubt in everyone's hearts, and finally... the "Eleventh Herrscher" completely destroyed humanity's hope] [“What will this child bring us in the end? Will he kill us all? Will he destroy the last city we survived in? Or…” Such thoughts kept coming to mind.] [Nervous, fearful, the little concern I had was slowly overwhelmed by suspicion] [What should we do? What should we do to avoid this outcome? — So they thought] [We can’t give up. We absolutely can’t give up hope of fighting the Honkai… We must stop the Herrscher from destroying our last living space… What should we do? What should we do? ] [Oh, right, let's kill her before she becomes a Herrscher! We can't let her become a Herrscher! That would kill us all! Get rid of the Herrscher in advance, and kill her before she has that kind of powerful power! This way we can keep our last living space! That's right, that's it!] [This is all for humanity! To fight the Honkai! To defeat the Honkai! That’s right!] [The guards' thoughts became more and more strange and extreme. Unconsciously, the resentment that had been accumulated in their hearts gradually surged up. Whether it was towards this world, towards the collapse, or towards the increasingly difficult life, too many complaints and resentments were ignited at this moment.] […But they firmly believe that all this is for humanity, to fight against Honkai] [After all... killing the Herrscher, isn't that what the Fire Moth has always been doing? ] [So, when Sakura came to visit Ling again, she found that the entire base was extremely quiet, as if everyone in the base had disappeared.] [She reacted immediately and rushed to where Ling was imprisoned, but what she saw in the end was... Ling's body] [Yakura kneels down on the ground somewhat powerlessly, with a dazed look on her face] [The body was badly injured. The marks left on the wrists and ankles proved that Ling had struggled violently. The tools scattered around suggested the methods used by the abuser... Ling was not killed directly. Instead, she died of exhaustion and blood loss after being tortured.] [It is hard to understand, hard to accept, and... even more unforgivable, to do such a cruel thing to a girl who has not hurt anyone, who was judged as a "suspected Herrscher" and voluntarily accepted detention and experiments.] [However, the Herrscher's alarm has already sounded, and the original perpetrators have all become corpses, corroded by the Honkai... They all died the moment the Herrscher appeared.] [Ying pursed her lips, and her originally dizzy pupils gradually became clear. She supported her body again, staggered for a while, and then ran quickly and firmly.] [The Herrscher has appeared. She... must fulfill her duty and go and defeat him.] [Similarly, as an elder sister...she should also go find her younger sister] -------- boom! On [P21 Island], a huge roar was heard, and a large amount of blue water rushed up into the sky, breaking through the entire [Deepest Place]. Boom boom boom—— What followed were countless explosions and sounds of attacks. All the remaining weapons on the entire island began to attack the figure. Wei Liwei also entered the device she had prepared long ago in a somewhat embarrassed manner, trying to delay time and allow others to deal with Xi Wang who suddenly destroyed everything. But Xi Wang ignored her. The water quickly gathered and formed an "ocean current" in the air, which quickly took him in that direction, the direction that exuded the aura of the Ruler. The [Hersher] appeared... He finally appeared, but he was not the one who was first judged as a "suspected Herrsher", so the only one that could be him was... Ling. We have to go... We must go... It doesn't matter, nothing else matters, just take Ling and Ying and run away. The world is big anyway, the three of them can just find a place to live, and the current Fire Moths can't do anything to them. Haiyang seemed to be happy and concerned, as if asking him if he needed help... Xiwang didn't care. Come on, as long as it could make him go faster, faster!
As a result, the sea water began to rhythmically move, and the power of the "ocean" was added to the "ocean current" in the sky, allowing Xiwang's speed to increase to a higher level. tick- The sky gradually darkened and a steady stream of rain began to fall. Here I am... I am coming... please... faster... I can already feel that familiar breath, the increasingly faint breath that belongs to Sakura.
