Honkai, the behind-the-scenes simulator

[At this time, it can be said that the strength of the three awakened people who have reached the third stage is gathered. 】

[Any one of these three people has the power to compete with the Herrscher of Flame who burned the Australian continent before, or to defeat him alone. 】

[However, in the face of the Ninth Herrscher, who controls the large comet that is about to fall into the atmosphere, it is only a counterbalance. 】

[The war between human beings and Houkai is not a game, and death is inevitable. 】

[At the moment when Herrscher was just born, one of the saints of the "Masquerade Ball" lost contact. 】

【And in the process of fighting the Herrscher...】

[Epsilon, lost the link, the current link object, 10 people. 】

[Jita, lost the link, the current link object, 9 bodies. 】

[In your perception, the two starlights quietly went out. 】

【You lowered your head slightly, remained silent without a word, and continued to maintain the spiritual connection. 】

[However, your silence does not mean that everyone can remain silent. 】

[You heard the angry roar from the deepest part of your heart. 】

【—Thousands of calamities. 】

[Among all the members of the "Masquerade Ball", Qian Jie has always been the most withdrawn. 】

[Even every time I communicate with others, I seem to be used to using ridicule and provocation instead of normal speech. 】

[But at this time, his anger is like lava surging under the earth's crust, tearing the fragile surface and erupting. 】

[You feel his anger. 】

[Almost at the same moment, you quickly adjusted with the mind link, and switched the center in a very short period of time. 】

[At first it was Teresa, upholding the will to restrain all disasters, her burst of light suppressed the Ninth Herrscher for a short time, making her stature slightly stagnant. 】

[Secondly, it is Sakura. 】

【She breathed out lightly, and suddenly opened her blazing ice-blue eyes the next moment. 】

【The tangible sword in his hand cut through the invisible gravitational field surrounding the Ninth Herrscher in an instant. 】

[This doesn't seem to be a difficult thing to do - because she is just executing your orders. 】

[Finally, it is a thousand calamities. 】

[Qianjie under the rage had no intention of cooperating with anyone at all, but at this moment you all cooperated with him by coincidence. 】

[No, it should be said that it is precisely because he knows that you will cooperate with him, so he will do this. 】

[When the center of the soul connection shifted to her, he showed his anger without any concealment or restraint. 】

【Anger, turning him into a raging fire that devours everything, clamoring and roaring, trying to kill and shatter everything. 】

[When his anger subsided a little, the enemy in front of him had been reduced to ashes, leaving only the Herrscher core left there. 】

[The Ninth Great Crash, it's over—but, it's not completely over. 】

[Your eyes are fixed on the large comet that has already entered the atmosphere. 】

【Previously, you didn't really take any measures against this comet, because while the Ninth Herrscher is pulling this comet, this comet is also dispersing the power of the most powerful Herrscher born so far. 】

[And now, it's time to solve it. 】

【"Sakura, please lend me your truth."】

[Through the connection of the soul link, you said so in your heart. 】

【"Yes--let me do what you want." Sakura responded with a cold but fiery voice. 】

[Your hearts are closely connected to each other. 】

[You close your eyes slightly. 】

【You give orders to yourself with your own mind. 】

【You follow your heart at all costs and consequences, and never violate it. 】

【Your heart gives absolute trust to yourself, and you also absolutely trust your own heart. 】

[Sakura's "truth" is displayed on your body in an alternative manner. 】

【You obeyed the commands of your own heart and carried them out with all your might. 】

[The next moment, you open your eyes, and your figure has disappeared from the tower. 】

[Your figure appeared on the large comet that was gradually falling in the atmosphere, and its surface was entwined with raging flames caused by friction. 】

【This may symbolize the comet of disaster into your eyes, and the voice of your heart becomes clearer and clearer. 】

【"—Smash it."】

【So, you strictly followed the order from your heart. 】

[Crush it. 】

【You stretch out your hand and pull out the "sword". 】

[Suddenly, an invisible light spread out, as if it was a flower blooming vigorously. 】

[The next moment, you will withdraw from this state, and the 'truth' that belongs to Sakura will leave your heart. 】

【You can feel your heart beating rapidly, as if it will explode completely in the next instant. 】

[Your body surface suddenly spread cracks like broken porcelain, but under the action of your conscious power, it instantly returned to normal. 】

[The large comet with a diameter of eighteen kilometers has suddenly turned into hundreds of huge meteorites. 】

【You didn't stop. 】

【"Qianjie, let me experience your anger."】

[You said so in your heart with the help of the soul link. 】

【"Cut." Along the soul link came the extremely unpleasant lip smacking sound of Qianjie. 】

[You close your eyes slightly. 】

[The moment you opened your eyes, your eyes were already filled with anger. 】

[However, not hysterical, nor furious. 】

[It's not a raging sea of ​​flames, but it burns extraordinarily calmly. 】

[This is... warm anger. 】

[The high-temperature flame will burn more quietly. 】

【The flames flowed out—yes, not raging and roaring, but spreading and flowing out like a gentle current,】

【The flowing flame wrapped around the falling meteorite which was rubbing against the atmosphere, burning silently and quietly. 】

【At last--】

【"Teresa, I need your determination and faith."】

【Your words have not yet been finished, the soft but firm light has been transmitted along the soul link. 】

[Constrain the disaster and use yourself as a barrier. 】

[Upholding this kind of awareness, the light that was born will be displayed in your heart. 】

【With the help of Teresa, you finally weakened the power of this disaster. 】

【In the end, you returned to the Tower of Light, raised your hand and gently pressed the center of your brow. 】

【And the countless missiles launched from the various bases of Moth Chasing Fire fell on the meteor fire rain across the sky, bursting out huge sparks. 】

[Since then, the Ninth Great Crash...]

[Completely over. 】

[You are standing in the research institute, staring at the recovered Herrscher's Core that belongs to the Ninth Herrscher. 】

【Crash...】

[Only the damage caused by the seventh and ninth major collapses combined has reached half of the total population of this civilization before the outbreak of the seventh major collapse. 】

[Not to mention, the damage in the rest of the Houkai incident will also be added. 】

[Now, you have facts that you can already identify. 】

[Honkai is deliberately targeting humans. 】

[As for the purpose of this deliberate targeting...]

[Except for resisting the upcoming collapse, it is meaningless to explore this issue. 】

[Because no matter what the reason is, the scars and pain this disaster has brought to mankind cannot be erased. 】

[For you, Honkai has deprived more than half of the human lives in this world with the most brutal, worthless, and meaningless reasons. 】

[Its indiscretion is like erasing the numbers written on the paper lightly. 】

[Among more than half of the human race, how many exceptionally eye-catching and brilliant people will there be?How gorgeous will their colors be? 】

[Today, this question cannot be answered at all. 】

[But what is certain is that...]

[Now you, it is absolutely impossible for you to feel relieved about the traces left by the collapse on human beings. 】

[So, who can target humans? 】

[Previously, you thought that Honkai was just a unique mechanism that originated in the imaginary number space. 】

[The reason for the collapse is that the energy and laws in the imaginary space penetrate into the real world, just like seawater penetrates into the land. 】

[But now, your thoughts have gradually changed. 】

[Perhaps, it is the water in the sea itself that is desperately surging upwards to submerge the land. 】

[Maybe, someone deliberately carried a bucket to divert water to the land. 】

[It is also possible that the ocean wants to include the land within its scope. 】

[But in any case, the facts you can determine are...]

[They are malicious. 】

[As for whether this maliciousness comes from the collapse itself, or from the imaginary space...]

[For now, this makes no difference to humans. 】

[You contact the Moth of the Fire and ask what is going on on the Mu Continent. 】

[The newly born Ninth Herrscher, after destroying the Mu Continent, directly regarded your research institute as a target. 】

[From this, you can recognize that the research results you have obtained are probably taboos for the driving force behind the collapse. 】

[However, even so, the Ninth Herrscher still appeared on the Mu Continent, destroying that continent first, and then taking your research institute as a target. 】

[You got the answer from mei. 】

【What they were studying there was...】

【quantum. 】

[The threat that mankind is facing, the collapse, is a disaster from the world of imaginary numbers. 】

[Compared to the entire imaginary number, let alone human beings, even the current real universe is tiny. 】

[Wanting to compete with the power from the imaginary number world, they naturally realized the existence of opposing each other with the imaginary number...]

[Quantum Sea. 】

[They hope to use the power of quantum to fight against imaginary numbers, at least to find a chance for human beings to protect themselves. 】

[However, what I didn't expect was that this kind of result would be ushered in in the end. 】

【Whether it's you or Flame Chasing Moths, at first they only regarded imaginary numbers as simple spaces or groups of worlds, and Honkai as a mechanism similar to natural disasters. 】

[Flame Chasing Moth chose Quantum, which eventually led to the entire Mu Continent being hit by the Ninth Herrscher with precision, and the entire Continent was instantly destroyed. 】

[Obviously, for imaginary numbers, quantum is an intolerable enemy. 】

[Therefore, Continental Mu, which uses cutting-edge technology to carry out quantum research, has become the first target that needs to be solved. 】
