Bai used the power of the Herrscher of the Void to help all the teleportation and positioning, whether for offense or evasion, ensuring that the Flame-Chasers were in the best possible positions.

At the same time, he would occasionally use the Zero Rated Power of the Cleansing Thunder of Seven Sins to paralyze the Herrscher of Finality when she was about to activate the global time stop, and then teleport everyone to outside the range of the time stop.

"???"

The Herrscher of Finality was completely dumbfounded.

She had never encountered such a formidable opponent.

He clearly possessed absolute power; if his attack hit head-on, everyone except the White Youth would be instantly killed. Even Bai Ge would have to pay a considerable price if he tried to take the hit head-on.

However, this is precisely the case where the difference in combat power is so vast.

The Herrscher of Finality found that she seemed unable to Flame Chasers, and no matter how she attacked, she couldn't hit them. If it were anyone else, they would have lost their temper long ago, but fortunately, she did not show any signs of anxiety.

"... It's alright, let's see how long you can last. Unlike gods, humans have their limits."

"Enough with the rambling, keep going!"

Bai Ge made another international friendship gesture.

Although the Herrscher of Finality beautiful, Bai's current favorability towards her is negative 10,000. After all, as a player, he hates those who use cheats to lock their health when their skills are not up to par!

If this War of the End were a game, Bai Ge believed it would be the worst game in the world.

The opponent is an illogical monster with unbalanced stats. It can kill us in one hit and stop time over a large area, rendering our attacks ineffective and delaying us for more than three days.

This is absolutely incomprehensible!

Bai Ge is now very skeptical about whether the Honkai wants to embrace humanity. It is said that as long as you defeat the Herrscher of Finality, you can clear the game. However, this guy's health bar is locked, and the difficulty of defeating him is thousands of times higher than all the previous Herrscher combined!

It is an enemy that is almost impossible to defeat in terms of its design.

Even so.

He still found a sliver of possibility, a sliver of possibility that could make this Honkai Goddess bleed or even die!

Bai Ge: (But the power isn't enough yet! We have to hold them off! We need to build up even more power!)

And so, in this boundless sea of stars...

The tug-of-war between the Flame Chasers and the Herrscher of Finality continues, and time ticks by.

One hour...

Two hours...

Three hours!!!

When the time was delayed to three hours later.

The Herrscher of Finality: "Humans, I admit you have exceeded my expectations. This is the longest reset in my record, but... it ends here."

The Gods have put in their full effort, but even now they have not been able to eliminate any of the Flame-Chasers.

But as she said before.

Human beings are ultimately limited.

After three hours of all-out fighting, the Flame Chasers, including Bai Ge, had exhausted all their strength. Their Honkai Energy was almost gone, and they had reached their limit.

Bai Ge could barely maintain his rebellious godhood, but all of his God Keys had shattered. Kevin exited his demonic state, and the Heavenly Fire in his hand reverted to the most basic dual pistols. Elysia's bowstring was covered in blood, and Sakura's ice blade was broken.

The flames of Kalpas have been extinguished, all of Vill-V's weapons have been exhausted, Kosma's wings and horns have been broken, Pardo has collapsed from exhaustion, and Aponia is unable to move.

Hua's Honkai Energy was completely exhausted, Su's eyes were already bleeding, Eden's twin guns overheated and exploded, Prometheus's body was half destroyed, Misteln's body was gradually becoming transparent.

The Herrscher of Finality's golden eyes swept over every Flame-Chasers.

It seems they wanted to remember their figures.

"I will give you a painless end, I will destroy your civilization, this is the respect that the Gods have for you."

Exterminating a civilization is the highest form of respect.

The Herrscher of Finality raised the divine spear in his hand as he spoke.

She instinctively pointed the gun at Bai Ge.

The young man who defied the gods still had an unyielding look in his eyes, and he was also the one with the most power left among them.

However, with all his weapons damaged, his Honkai Energy almost depleted, and his stamina almost exhausted, Bai Ge had no chance of dodging her attack.

This is the best opportunity to kill this savior.

However, the Herrscher of Finality hesitated, a feeling of almost reluctance arising in the heart of this Honkai goddess.

"I... will save you for last."

"What?"

"You are the most special human being, so I will allow you to live until the very last moment."

The Herrscher of Finality said expressionlessly, "I've decided to save the White Youth for last, until I destroy everything on Earth and reset civilization before dealing with him."

This is neither a reward nor an act of sympathy.

It was simply the Herrscher of Finality's desire to do this.

"So let's start with the others, for this very moment is the Finality!"

The light wings behind the Herrscher of Finality released beams of Honkai Energy, shooting towards everyone except Bai Ge.

Only Kevin, Elysia, Sue, and Hua were able to move and try to escape, while the others were already doomed.

"Do you think I'd allow it?!"

Bai Ge gritted his teeth and forcefully activated the Herrscher Authority of the Void.

In an instant, he teleported everyone to his side. Then, the six wings of the Reverse God transformed into a shield, enveloping everyone. At the same time, the Heavenly Devourer Honkai Beast its body to block him.

These beams of light, which had been targeting the Flame-Chasers, suddenly changed direction and shot towards the rebellious youth and the Heavenly Devourer Honkai Beast, as if they wanted to pierce through their bodies and kill the people they were protecting.

At this point, even if the Herrscher of Finality wanted to stop, it was too late.

"Roar... roar..."

In an instant, the body of the nine-headed Chimera was pierced through, and the Apocalypse-Class Honkai Beast let out a mournful cry before disappearing.

The beam of light that it could not completely block landed on Bai Ge's six wings and his body.

The next second, holy blood splattered, wings broke, dragon horns shattered, and the Rebel God Physique was mangled and bloody.

But Elysia and the others he protected were completely unharmed!

"Bai Ge, no!!!"

"No! Stop right now!!"

"Bai Ge! This isn't right!"

"You'll die if you do that!!"

The cries of the Flame-Chasers rose up. At that moment, they felt as if their hearts were being crushed. Watching the boy shield them with his own body, they would rather die under the attack of the Finality.

"It's alright... this is... good..."

Bai Ge's golden eyes dimmed, like a candle flame about to go out, but a smile appeared on his face.

When the Herrscher of Finality launched this attack, he realized that this was the moment to change his fate.

The people who couldn't avoid it at the time —Vill-V, Eden, Pardo, Kalpas, Kosma, Sakura, and Aponia— were all people who would have died in the Previous Civilization in the original storyline.

As for Prometheus, she has a data backup, so the destruction of her mecha is not death for her. And Misteln is Bai Ge's Schariac Stigmata, so as long as the Stigmata is not destroyed, she will not die.

(Because of my existence, all the Flame-Chasers survived, but fate is trying to rewrite history, so it is using the Herrscher of Finality to try to send Sakura and the others back to their deaths... There is only one way to stop it!)

Like a revolving lantern, Bai Ge recalled the ways he had changed the fates of Sirin, Bronya, and Seele in the past.

(Death is inevitable. Even if you protect someone once, the corrective force of fate will continue to try to kill everyone, just like it did with Duck Duck and Seele.)

(And the only way to change this fate is—to take someone else's place!)

Death is inevitable.

If we don't want the Flame-Chasers to die...

Transit group: 371729119

He alone must bear this death!

Substitution is the only way to change one's fate, just like how Bai Ge replaced Sirin to become the Herrscher of the Void, and replaced Seele and Bronya to undergo the X-10 experiment.

Therefore, the boy in white 5.1 smiled, feeling his own heartbeat, the cessation of life, and the arrival of death. He knew that he had changed the fate of Sakura and the others.

However, just when the Flame-Chasers were in despair...

"Roar roar roar roar roar—!!" x9

Nine earth-shattering roars rang out once more, and the Heavenly Devourer Honkai Beast, which had been dead, was awakened.

Along with him, the boy who defied the gods was also resurrected.

"How can one discuss life if one cannot even understand death?!"

Bai Ge opened his eyes again, and his previously dim golden eyes became bright again. At the same time, his bloodied and mangled body was restored.
