Beng San, I have an unfinished date with her

"Bringing those people eternal soul and complete essential evolution, adapted to the truth and origin of the world."

"Yes, Son of God." Aponya said, holding the beads in both hands, and wanted to kneel down to pray.

But the strip of light extending from Long's body dragged her knees and made her stand up.

Long turned to look at her and said: "This is... my first and last order to you."

"This is also the order given to you by some of my identities...as [Herrscher of the End] and [Hengkai Consciousness]."

"I will accommodate everything they have before and after death. Real death will cease to exist after passing the test."

"But suffering brings memory, and memory promotes progress."

"So there will be no shortage of tests."

"Adaptability is the lowest standard."

"Go, Aponya."

"Aponia remember this."

Brand new branches: 300. Under the witness of the moonlight, the contract is made again

"The Honkai energy on the earth will continue to increase after my arrival, producing a lot of monsters and a lot of pain. Am I right?"

"That's the result of me being the fulcrum of imaginary numbers in this world, right?"

"maybe..."

"Then, is my existence good or bad for this world? Alicia."

"This is a difficult question to answer. I can only say that for me, having Long by my side is a good thing."

"This world never revolves around anyone, right?"

"People just live in this world and live out their own lives, whether it's pain, joy, sadness, happiness... they all live their own life."

"In that case, how about I let them have a bigger stage?"

"Hmm... As for this, I don't know either~ But, Takashi, do you think humans are ready to face such a stage?"

"I have no idea."

"Then let's go and see if humans have this chance, okay?"

"Ah."

.....

...

Long sat on the dangerous guardrail on the top edge of the small building, looking at the moon in the sky, thinking silently.

"Hi~ Are you admiring the beautiful moonlight?"

A pink figure came behind him with a sweet voice.

"Alicia."

"Well, did you miss me?"

"You are more beautiful than the moonlight."

"Oh, your mouth is so sweet, the girl's heartbeat has accelerated a lot~"

Clichéd love words cannot break the tenderness between the two.

Alicia came and sat down next to Long. She sat very firmly, even though her legs were still dangling on the guardrail like a swing.

"Alicia...I thought about it and now I can choose to take action."

"Really? What kind of action is it?"

"Human beings haven't reached the stage yet, but - I can let them have basic qualifications first, and when that day comes, they will shine extremely brightly in the universe."

"This is the result of my observation of different humans, Alicia."

"What shall we do then?"

"I will transform their essence into existences related to imaginary numbers. This is something that only I can do in this world."

Alicia was stunned: "Are you going to turn humans into beings similar to the Herrscher?"

Takashi looked at Alicia: "The answer is with me, isn't it?"

"They will become close to the power of the imaginary number, and the power of the Honkai Impact - but they are different from the Herrscher, they do not have the power of the Herrscher, and they do not have the authority of the imaginary number."

"Just like you, Alicia."

"I once asked you, wouldn't it be good for all humans to become Alicia?"

"You can't answer me."

"Now I understand why."

"The unknown nature of existence is a desire that is worth exploring for intelligent creatures."

"Contradiction, opposition and unity are vividly reflected in the human race - because they are separate individuals and separate creatures, they will go to find the direction to achieve any kind of [possibility]."

"I don't hate this."

"Even if there will be many, many not-so-good things and events happening in it?" Alicia asked.

"Yes." Long nodded: "Whether it's good or bad, because the world is vast, the universe is infinite, and the tree of imaginary numbers is even more indeterminately infinite. Good and bad will lose their meaning in it, and everything will only remain in the end. Here are several concepts - [what can be done] [what cannot be done] and [what you want to do]"

"For all [beings] in this world, this will be the case in the end."

"But if a race is one, the same, single, then it can only do one of them."

"Human beings are the same as many other beings in the universe. All individuals among them have the possibilities brought by being [independent individuals], and thus have the opportunity to achieve all three items - but they have not done so. Qualifications to bear them.”

"Because of this, Alicia...I gave up the idea of ​​turning all humans into like you."

"Even if you are so perfect."

"I look forward to a world with all kinds of different possibilities, not just for humans, but also for various [existences] in the universe in more dimensions."

"After all...except for the [World View], my Father God no longer has the same identity as my ontological consciousness that has assimilated the Tree of Imaginary Numbers and the Sea of ​​Quantum, or even the entire [World View], right?"

"A world without possibilities is too boring for me."

"Long... you know everything." Alicia's eyes widened: "I only know a little bit of very fragmentary information, right?"

"Well...even more than you know, Alicia. After all, you can only get knowledge and information by entering the corresponding marked point..."

"Because I am the one who replaced [Tree and Sea]~"

"Because of this, I also know... I am like a dream at this moment. My body dreamed of such a me, existing in all the earth and moon systems, with the real you."

"Alicia, you can come back here, but my body can't. I have completely transformed into the source of everything."

Alicia felt a little lonely: "I don't even know what you're talking about."

Long smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Alicia... Although I said [dream and body], but that is just a description used in human language for easy understanding - the actual me... exists at the same time. In the whole world, I am the world.”

"[Ontology and Dream] - I am who I am"

"So, help me, Alicia - for the sake of a broader future for mankind."

"It's up to you to decide how to conduct the test I give humans."

"Whether it's indulging love or painful injuries!"

"There is no need to escape, I will not let any creature in this world achieve true death!"

"The roots and branches that transcend time will continue to extend!"

"No matter what the situation is, I can go back to the corresponding branch and node to change everything!"

The little Takashi stood up.

Standing on the railing on the roof, looking at the moonlight, open arms.

The deepest part of Long Na's body was filled with dazzling light - for the first time, Alicia could see clearly what kind of light it was.

That is... an extremely lush [tree] and an extremely deep [sea]

They merged and turned into an extremely deep light.

In Long's body here, it is also in the extremely distant high-dimensional space and time.

A great existence that transcends time and space.

He extended an invitation to a date to himself.

Alicia smiled slightly, stretched out her hand and put it on Long's small and thick arm.

Witnessed by the moonlight.

"Long, let you be my pride forever."

"Well, definitely!"

Brand new branches: 301. Guests coming from afar, can you stop and listen to the words of our God?

Twilight Street has probably never had such a "grand occasion"

On this street, it was even blocked.

A stage was erected at one end.

Many people were gathered there.

Waiting for the famous magician to perform on stage - all because of the flyers that dropped from the sky on Dusk Street this morning.

The best viewing position around the stage is not that of ordinary people with lower status in Twilight Street.

Those are the guys who need to be eradicated.

They formed a large group and sat distinctly among them.

The destruction of the two leaders made these guys, big and small, hostile to each other.

Rather than saying that Qianjie just arrived and crushed a group of little ants to death, they were more willing to believe that someone hired Qianjie to come and eradicate their opponents.

Once the "trust" order established during years of chaos is broken, the rift will never be repaired or eliminated.

This atmosphere even affected the performance and the ordinary audience behind, which made Velvet very unhappy!

Although there are some... among the general audience, they are not considered "ordinary".

After all, it is Twilight Street.

But Velvet still attracted everyone's attention with her perfect performance, making the chaos late.

But when Velvet wanted to leave after finishing her performance, confusion still arose.

The trigger was the guys who were chasing Velvet's casino before.

All of a sudden, in the area between the stage and the outside crowd - the melee began.

The people on the periphery dispersed in a hurry, leaving enough area for them.

Shouts of kill, curses and sporadic gunshots echoed in the area of ​​Dusk Street.

Already completely confused.

Except here, some people even went to steal homes at the invitation of their bosses.

...

On the roof next to it, there were two figures.

The masked man sat on the edge, watching all this ridiculous noise.

A woman in simple clothing stands in the back with her hands folded in prayer.

Finally, the time came.

Qianjie looked at the shadow of the car that had long since disappeared outside the street at dusk.

Aponya also opened his eyes and looked at the real blood and bodies splashing on the ground in the dusk, illuminated by the blood-like sunlight of the setting sun.

When she was growing up, this kind of thing happened in Twilight Street...but it was far less serious than what she saw this time.
