Collapse: Herrscher at the beginning, pre-rebirth civilization

"I know, you think I can't see it?"

"Hmm... huh? Did you see it?"

"That's right." Su Shixiu sighed, and then said helplessly, "Although I'm not much older than you, I have to admit sometimes...you two really look like children to me sometimes."

"Ah?! But I'm already nineteen..."

"I'm twenty this year."

"...You are obviously only one year older than me!"

"One year older is considered older."

"How can this be? Brother Shixiu is too much!"

Su Shixiu was basically like this, he was able to chat with most people, although of course a small number of accidents could not be ruled out.

Among them is Cosmo, who hardly speaks at all, which makes it difficult for others to talk to him.

But he is actually not bad... After all, he is one of the future Thirteen Fire Chasing Heroes.

"Okay, that baseball bat, Mo, can actually play like this? I've learned a lot, and I'll try using a gun as a stick sometime!"

"...You are remote support! But what's the matter with this baseball bat, did you learn it from that brat Kevin?"

"Senior Kevin? What does a baseball bat have to do with him?"

"He used to bully me with a baseball bat several times."

Destobia was stunned, she suddenly wanted to laugh, but she was afraid that if she laughed, it would hurt the self-esteem of the senior in front of her, so it took a lot of effort to hold back her laugh.

Of course, Su Shixiu had already seen these situations.

"Don't hold yourself back, just laugh if you want to. I'm not someone who cares about such little things."

"Ahem, hahahaha... so it turns out that Senior Kevin and Brother Shixiu still have such a past! Hahahahaha I laughed so hard hahaha..."

Su Shixiu nodded silently, and then added a fatal blow.

"Of course, in the end I made him kneel down and call him father."

"Hahahaha? Cough cough, puff ha ha ha ha ha!"

Destobia laughed even more on the spot.

Su Shixiu shrugged helplessly. After all, what he said was the truth. Of course, that kneeling may have been a bit exaggerated.

When he was nothing, Kevin did playfully bully him several times, but Su Shixiu was not without support.

As long as Mei is called, Kevin can be instantly coaxed.

Not to mention that after experiencing the third Honkai, he officially became a brand new Herrscher. No matter how fast Kevin develops, he will not be stronger than himself.

No matter how strong you are Kevin, I, Su Shixiu, will always be above you!

At the same time, Kevin, who was busy controlling the defense force in May's office, suddenly sneezed.

Rubbing his sore nose, Kevin got busy with his current work depressedly.

For him, he absolutely didn't need to pay much attention to such trivial matters. If he sneezed for no reason, it was probably one of the two bastards, Su Shixiu or Su, who scolded him behind his back.

"Okay, calm down, don't scare Gracie."

After recovering her physical strength, Destobia was so lively that Su Shixiu couldn't help feeling a little headache.

"Okay! Ah, Gracie, let Sister Tobia pinch her face!"

"Hmm..." Vertex Fiction

Gracie, who was suddenly attacked, could only enjoy it helplessly, after all, she had no ability to resist at all.

Su Shixiu didn't care about it, and continued to stare at Cosmo, who was still fighting in the simulated training room on the virtual electronic screen, and began to estimate his evaluation and analysis of his current tactics in his heart.

There is also the future positioning, what is more suitable for him, etc. Although Su Shixiu has never done this kind of thing before, it is not that Hen has never mentioned it to him, so he will make a point or two.

Hen turned out to be the instructor of Flame Chasing Moth, and his qualifications were still very old, even older than Alicia, the captain of their special team.

With the experience of his predecessors, Su Shixiu will not be like Kevin, who has no idea how to lead newcomers.

Chapter 42 Unexpected, childlike comfort

After a while, after Cosmo came out of the simulation training room panting, and was supported by Su Shixiu and Destobia to sit on the chair, Su Shixiu began to write about Cosmo's situation.

"The physical fitness is not bad, and the overall ability is good. It doesn't seem to be very good at using thermal weapons, but the close combat ability is outstanding. In comparison, it may be more suitable for unarmed combat. Hmm...Maybe there is no possibility of finding other more suitable weapons."

After writing this passage, Su Shixiu glanced at Cosmo, and then continued to write:

"The personality is relatively introverted... It's not a big deal, but there must be basic communication between comrades in arms. This point needs to be paid attention to. After going down, you can tell Kevin to let him use Ah Mo's melee skills. It is possible Will use the weapon that comes in handy."

"The overall development is towards comprehensive development. The combat method is mainly close combat, and there is no need to overthink long-range combat."

After recording these things, Su Shixiu put away his mobile phone, glanced at the two people who were teasing Gracie, and walked slowly in front of them.

"Xiaoya, Ah Mo, both of you have good overall abilities and battle statistics. After a little more training, you will be able to officially join the special team. You just came to the base today, so take a day off first. Get training."

"Great!"

Upon receiving the news of the holiday, Destobia immediately became happy. Cosmo beside her didn't say much, but there was a smile on her face.

No matter how taciturn he is, it can't change the reality that he is just a teenager now, and even a teenager has an inexplicable attachment to vacations and rest.

After telling the two about the situation of the base, seeing Destobia dragging Cosmo away directly, Su Shixiu smiled helplessly, feeling that it is good to be young.

Deliberately ignoring Cosmo's eyes calling for help, Su Shixiu picked up Gracio and prepared to take her back to his dormitory first.

After all, who would have imagined that Hen and Blanca would go out for their honeymoon at this time, the key is that Hen, the sixth son, after taking over Cosmo, would not teach him, but just to blame Su Shixiu, and let him have a one-off. Take two newcomers.

Tsk tsk, I remember you, Hen, see if I will let you be my father-in-law in the future, and that's it! ! !

Of course, Su Shixiu was just joking about this kind of thinking, if he took it seriously, it would be outrageous, he would be inhuman!

Thinking angrily in his heart, Su Shixiu rubbed Gracio's head, and the smile on his face became wider.

"Grexiu, brother Shixiu's dormitory is quite big, and there are a lot of newly bought paints and drawing boards. You can paint as much as you want when you go to my brother's place. If you are tired of painting, you can just eat and sleep directly. It's okay, Gao Are you unhappy?"

"Hmm... happy (≧?▽?≦?)!"

"It's so cute!"

Su Shixiu pressed his own face to the little guy's face, and walked towards his dormitory while shaking off his father's scandal.

After returning to the dormitory, Su Shixiu quickly prepared the drawing board and brushes for little Gracie, and then let the little guy start painting slowly.

In this way, in this relatively quiet noon, in Su Shixiu's dormitory, Gracie picked up a brush and drew with a smile, while Su Shixiu moved a stool and sat on Grace's body. Beside her, quietly watching her painting.

Behind Su Shixiu, three purple-red stigmata shimmered, and only Su Shixiu could see the phantom of Jiuxiao in Penglai Temple, appearing behind him.

"Axiu, this cute baby is really a rare painting god in this world. Her unfathomable painting talent and the purest and firm heart for painting really shock the world!"

Su Shixiu nodded, speaking in a very low voice, so low that only he himself and the Penglai Temple Jiuxiao in his body could hear clearly.

"That's right... Gracie's painting is really good, and she finally drew herself into the painting..."

Su Shixiu's tone obviously lost a lot.

In Su Shixiu's body, Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple could clearly feel that Su Shixiu's mood had also dropped a lot, and he even felt a little sad.

Even though Su Shixiu couldn't feel the existence of Jiuxiao in Penglai Temple at all, he could see that illusory figure hugging him from behind, making him feel a moment of warmth and comfort.

"I want to open something... this time the story, with your presence. The ending of this story has changed a long time ago"

Su Shixiu nodded in agreement.

Because of my own existence, the butterfly effect has already happened. Even if the ending of this story may still not be happy, at least it has changed.

"Shixiu... Brother. Here!"

Just at this moment, Gracie in front of her had finished drawing the painting in her hand.

Su Shixiu nodded with a smile, took the painting from Gracie's hand, and glanced at it.

In this painting, a little girl with long sky-blue hair is holding the hand of a young man with short silver-gray hair, standing on this green lawn.

Countless flowers bloomed on the lawn, and the girl pulling the young man was running towards the gate of the garden in the distance.

And the young man who was pulled by this little girl also had a smile on his face.

Around the two of them, there were countless butterflies flying, even in the blue sky, the sun was so clear and bright.

This painting is full of beauty, and Su Shixiu can recognize the two protagonists in this painting.

That little girl is Gracie, to be precise, it should be him after he has grown up, and the young man in the painting, who can finally truly follow his heart, relax and smile once, is naturally him, Su Shixiu .Vertex Fiction

Seeing that crappy but recognizable smile, Su Shixiu was stunned, and then he couldn't help laughing, but the gentle smile in the past was tinged with a bit of bitterness.

"Yeah, I let go of my whole-hearted smile, I am really happy, my own carefree smile, it seems that I haven't seen it for a long time, right?"

The last time I laughed so carelessly, yet genuinely, was probably when I came to this world as a child, and I still had my parents by my side.

It's just that everything has become a cloud of the past. The beauty and past, the memories and experiences of the past have long become a fragment in the brain, a time that can never go back.

"Brother, you are very gentle. I hope that brother can smile. It's not the kind of fake smile that people don't understand. It's really from the heart."

Gracie actually hates people with fake smiles, but she doesn't hate Su Shixiu at all. Even though she is young and doesn't understand anything, she can vaguely feel that there seems to be something on Su Shixiu's body. Very heavy stuff.

Those are the ones who made him like this, maybe this is the responsibility his parents once said?

How could the little guy know so much? She only hoped that this brother who was very gentle to her could also smile as he wanted.

After Su Shixiu was silent for a while, he finally picked up Gracie and put the little girl into his arms.

"Okay, Brother Shixiu will smile often in the future... Brother will definitely try his best to show Gracie a smile from the bottom of his heart, definitely will..."

Feeling something warm passing over her face, Gracie wiped her face with her small hands suspiciously, only to see some transparent liquid.

That was, Su Shixiu's tears, silently contained countless emotional tears.

"Brother don't cry, Gracie is here... well, it's okay if you think about it, then... only this one time."

"Okay, just this time."

Although tears were running down his face, making him look a bit embarrassed, Su Shixiu's smile was very happy.

Different from the gentleness in the past, at this moment, he has more feelings that are difficult to express. There is a lot of warmth and sadness in it, and various complex emotions are added to it.

When did I start to carry so many things gradually without knowing it?

Sometimes he can't justify it, because he doesn't know, but he doesn't regret it.

No matter how heavy the things on his shoulders are, at least, as long as he can change the imperfect ending, then everything is worth it for Su Shixiu.

Yes, it is worth everything to create a future that allows everyone to move towards tomorrow.

Even if he paid a heavy price on this road, Su Shixiu would not regret it.

That is not only his mission in this world, but also his desire to fulfill no matter what.

Save everyone, protect all the beauty, and change this imperfect story.

May all good things be blessed with this blessing.

Chapter 43

After venting his emotions for a while, Su Shixiu quickly adjusted his state.

After all, he has grown up, he is an indomitable man, and he is also one of the most important fighters in this world against the collapse.

People, occasionally need to vent their emotions... It is equivalent to a rare willful one time, although it is destined not to be too willful, but it is not a bad thing to come a little bit, right?

Afterwards, Gracie continued to draw for a while, but in the end she didn't know if she fell asleep, or Su Shixiu carried the little guy to her bed and let her go to sleep.

Looking at the unfinished family of three on the drawing board, Su Shixiu smiled silently, and then left the dormitory.

The headquarters of Moth Chasing Flame, the top of a tall building.

Looking at the bright starry sky, Su Shixiu slowly stretched out his right hand, aiming at the stars in the sky, held it empty, and then let go of his hand with regret.

Letting his arms hang down freely, Su Shixiu's gaze was still on the rare clear starry sky.

In this too real world, everyone needs to look up at the starry sky, and Su Shixiu will do the same.

In those blue to a little purple eyes, there is a little nostalgia, which is the remembrance of the past time.

The singing of cicadas in that summer was more boring than any other year. The branches grew wildly outside the classroom window, but they couldn't stop the scorching sun.
