People are crumbling, they're vile strangers

On the broken eaves, a little boy with brown hair cried and held down the bloody wound of the indigo-haired youth——

"Why! The blood...Why can't the blood stop..." The boy's voice was clearly crying.

"Haha...don't force it anymore, I feel that my life has come to an end..." The seriously injured man stopped the boy's useless effort with a smile.

"No! You will not die, you are Walter, our hero."

The boy pressed the young man's wound without any intention of letting go.

"Walter...that's a great name, isn't it?"

The young man raised a smile with his last strength and looked at the boy.

"Um....."

"Then...you are Walter now, the core of the Herrscher, and the mission to protect this world—I'll leave it to you, [Walter]."

The gray Herrscher's core was condensed in the hands of the young man and entrusted to the boy.

At the end of his life, the young man closed his eyes, said nothing, and fell asleep quietly.

...

"This is New York on November 1955, 11, and the city was hit by a Honkai fission bomb fired by the Mandate of Heaven, Archbishop Otto Apocalypse."

"At the time, Walter Joyce, the First Herrscher, was seriously injured and still stood in front of the catastrophe for this city."

"...he never seemed to have done anything great in his life, but to protect what he wanted to protect, and to oppose what he wanted to oppose.

"But this kind of ordinaryness just happened to become greatness itself, even in the end he failed to protect everyone."

"And this greatness will continue to be passed on in the next 70 years, first by Walter Joyce, then by Walter Young—"

"They are Walters, they—the guardians of the world."

The hermit told the young knight the story of the two generations of anti-entropy leaders. Although it was not detailed, the white-haired girl could still feel the heaviness and mission contained in the name.

The scene rotated, and the eyes of the two returned to the snow field again. The avenger who vowed to burn civilization was now fighting with the guardian of the world at this moment, and the power of reason and space collided here.

...

As if endless human creations were constructed by Yang, the pouring artillery fire smashed Sirin's imaginary barrier - he announced the determination of civilization in the face of destruction.

The pale and transparent giant hand waved between the mecha and the battleship, tearing and tearing the creations of these civilizations——she vented her hatred for civilization and human beings.

But as Walter said, as long as he is not dead, this army will never fall.

However, as the original Herrscher, Sirin herself is more adaptable to the core and authority than Yang, who inherited Joyce's core. The firepower poured out by the Titans and the battleship was swallowed by the vortex of space after briefly suppressing the second Herrscher. Then return it to yourself.

"The battlefield has reached a stalemate, but this is the man's original intention. He only needs to delay until the final sword and hammer of civilization fall here."

"Further away, a miniature missile launcher has entered a state of combat readiness, carrying the god-killing weapon of this era, which is equivalent to the shining brilliance of the sun. The nuclear weapon developed by the anti-entropy Dr. Einstein ....Silver Bullet"

"He will die, on the snowfields of Siberia...he will die here, from the very beginning he has not left a retreat for himself; he will die, and be buried with the life of the Second Herrscher."

"Just like [Walter] in the past, they used their own lives to explain what is mission... what is protection."

The hermit told the girl the reason why the man (anti-trap) stood here and refused to retreat, and Qiyana looked at the man who was already bruised and bruised with respect in his eyes.

"Won't he be afraid...?"

Qiyana looked at Walter in the field, his face showed no fear or fear, and the trajectory of the nuclear warhead could already be seen in the sky, and he never wavered a bit.

"Warriors don't fear death because they are death incarnate; brave men don't fear death because there is always something higher than life—and this man is both at this moment."

Hermit's tone contained praise and admiration for him.

"...Don't lose, Teacher Yang."

And the young knight Ji silently prayed for Walter Young on the field. Even though the man appeared in front of her as a history teacher intact, the girl still sincerely prayed for him at this moment...

......

The nuclear warhead fell, and the Second Herrscher, who felt the crisis, tried his best to swallow it with the imaginary space and threw it under the ground. However, the time for the falling bullet at high speed was too short for the Second Herrscher...

The nuclear explosion tore apart the surface of the earth, turning everything around it into scorched earth. A mushroom cloud rose from the plains of Siberia, engulfing the Second Herrscher, who was already unable to support the barrier——

"Did you win?"

Qiyana watched nervously on the scorched earth where the mushroom cloud was gradually dissipating. The purple figure fell to the ground at this moment. Her arms tried to prop up her body but fell down weakly. She turned her head and looked at the man in front of her... . Eyes with resentment and fear.

Walter Yang looked at the girl with a clear look - he understood that the girl in front of him was doomed not to look back, and the anger and hatred had distorted the girl's sanity...

The man raised the God's Key in his hand, the zero rated power of the Star of Eden was activated, and the weird black hole emitting purple light sucked the Herrscher girl into it. Yang's eyes watched Sirin struggling on the edge of the black hole, There was a trace of pity and resentment across his face.

In the end it all turned into a lament——

"Goodbye, Second Herrscher..."

.... However, everything is not destined to go so smoothly, just when Kiyana let out a big breath.

Sudden mutation——

Yang's abdomen received a heavy punch the moment he realized it, and this punch made Walter Yang, who was at the end of his strength, directly lost his fighting power.

"#@￥%" (Kaslana's family swearing)

Qiyana pointed to the open space and suddenly appeared, and the man wearing the clown mask exhaled fragrant.

"Hermit!! Who is this ￥#!@ dog thing???"

After all, the young and energetic girl seemed to have forgotten that this was an illusion, and was angry and ready to rush up and beat someone.

This feeling is as if the movie is about to reach a happy ending, and as a result, a dump truck rushed out from nowhere and killed the brave man who had defeated the demon king and was about to go home and reunite.

"You mean the blond masked man?"

"That's Clown α, oh...he has another name—Catholic Bishop Otto Apocalypse."

Under the incredulous eyes of the young lady knight, the hermit uttered a name that she had never thought of, and then the girl reacted abruptly——

"Wait, are you calling Hermit Ω?!"

"? Is your focus wrong..."

"So, you say this masked man is the Archbishop of Destiny? He shouldn't...why...?!"

Kiyana, who got an unexpected answer, froze in place.

"As the supreme leader of the Destiny, an organization that fights against the collapse, why did he let go of a Herrscher who intends to destroy humanity? Right?"

The hermit explained the knight's confusion, and the white-haired girl nodded.

"Because he is looking for an answer, eager to fulfill a long-cherished wish..."

"And this answer can only be given by a god...so in his eyes, the Second Herrscher cannot die, at least... not now, because she is the answer he is most likely to meet that god."

The huge dragon-shaped judge-level Honkai beast took over her queen and flew out of the atmosphere, towards the moon, while everyone on the ground could only watch her go away in despair.

"...The current Catholic bishop, Otto Apocalypse, has lived for 500 years. As long as he is willing, he can continue to live for another 500 years...until his long-cherished wish is fulfilled."

"So, what is his wish... He even let go of a Herrscher for it?!"

"Don't be too impatient... Kiyana—everyone is eager for the truth, but if you don't dismantle and analyze the wrapped clues and fog, who can see the truth."

"You should always keep calm, it can help you see the flaws and omissions of others—"

The hermit looked at the impatient Qiyana in front of him and shook his head, then reached out and patted her on the head.

"I want to be like you, but how can this kind of thing make people calm down..."

The young knight rubbed his slightly sore forehead from the knock and complained loudly.

"Because it serves no purpose other than to make you angrier..."

"What can you do with anger...you growl louder when you hit someone? Does your output rely on roaring?"

The hermit looked at Qiyana, the girl froze for a moment, then shook her head decisively.

"That's right...Keep reading...The truth of the story will always be revealed at the end, isn't it?"

"Okay...but this bishop is really annoying..."

Kiyana muttered, obediently following the hermit's footsteps.

"Let's put him aside first..." The hermit seemed to cut off something in the middle of the scene, and his perspective shifted to a piece of gray land.

"What did you pinch off just now? Hermit, how can I see the figures of my stinky father and mother?"

Kiana looked at the hermit who pinched off the link of sister Cecilia falling from the sky, and the latter just replied without thinking.

"Kids don't have puppy love—!"

"Uh....."

The harshness of her tone made Qiyana shrink back her curiosity on the spot.

"This is the moon? What are we doing here?" Qiyana looked around curiously, then looked up and saw a certain blue planet, and immediately understood where she was now.

"After being rescued by Bishop Otto, the dragon-shaped Honkai Beast brought the Second Herrscher here...the back of the moon."

"Hey, why is there a ruin here?"

Qiyana turned her head away, and a damaged ancient temple stood there quietly.

"That is the relic of the previous civilization. In that era, humans sealed part of the power of the collapse here."

"The Second Herrscher obtained the power that was sealed here in the past...and some of the power should be familiar to you..."

"The thunder and lightning of conquest, the storm of longing, the flames of disease, and the quiet death, those are the four gems, representing the extension of a certain authority of the Herrscher..."

"The Lightning of Conquest...is that the gem of conquest on Mei's body..."

Kiyana looked at the hermit, while the woman nodded, acknowledging the girl's conjecture.

"The Second Herrscher, who possesses five kinds of Herrscher's authority, is now on a path of complete irreversibility... the path of self-destruction."

The hermit looked at the purple-haired girl who laughed and lifted the pillars and gravel from the ruins and turned them into meteorites and threw them to the earth, with a hint of sarcasm and pity in her tone.

"Self-destruction? Why?" The white-haired girl heard the sarcasm and pity in the hermit's tone, and asked curiously.

"The Herrscher of the Five Powers shouldn't be very strong, right...?"

"Qiana, do you know why the first thirteen Herrschers only had one kind of authority when they were born...?"
