Herrscher of the Thousand: Baige Is Already Dead!!
(Host, what you did in the original timeline was actually pretty much the same, the only difference is that you died in this timeline, while you didn't die in the original timeline.)
"Forehead..."
Bai Ge was stunned. After reviewing the memories from an outsider's perspective, he realized that he had really been quite reckless in the past, completely disregarding his own dignity.
However, a very important question has arisen now.
Although it's another timeline, the person who did all these things is undoubtedly "Bai Ge." After saving everyone, he died in front of the other party, which speaks volumes about the depth of Kiana and the others' feelings for him.
He could completely imagine what would happen if Bai Ge went to meet Kiana, Mei, Bronya, and the others from this timeline right now!
When someone you once lost reappears in front of you, your only thought is to hold her tight forever and never let her leave again, no matter what means you have to do!
"I'd better get the last piece of the puzzle quickly, then go back to the original timeline. Hmm, I need to cover my face."
Bai Ge muttered to himself as he constructed a platinum mask and put it on his face, thinking that he absolutely could not be recognized.
As for how to return to the original timeline.
The method can be described as "super simple".
If you can travel back in time through the Imaginary Tree and save Elysia, you can return to the Current Civilization not through [All Things Dormant], but by using the system's time-travel function when it ends.
In this way, Bai Ge's paused "present" will continue to move forward, which means that he has returned to his original timeline.
"Let's finish this quickly and go home! Besides that, nothing else has changed, right?"
(Yes, it's gone.)
"Great, this is a sure thing. And thank you, system. Now that I think about it, without you, not only would I not have had the chance to change the tragedy of the past, but even if I had changed the outcome, I would definitely have lost my life like me in this world."
Bai Ge gently touched the system interface and said.
Although his own system didn't have any powerful cheat codes that made him invincible, he was content with what he had.
The mere fact that he could return to the past, and that his death during the time travel only ended the travel and returned him to the original timeline, was already more than enough to satisfy him.
This gave Bai Ge the confidence to charge forward with all his might.
"I think I said some harsh words to you before, I'm sorry."
(Please don't worry, host. It's because I failed to give you powerful cheat abilities that you have to desperately try to change the tragedy time and time again. I'm a useless system.)
"Don't say that. To me, you are the best system. Please continue to guide me in the future, System Master~"
(Yes, Master!)
After learning the details of this timeline, Bai Ge decided to act quickly to avoid any unforeseen complications.
"Gray Serpent, how is the Tenth Herrscher of this era? 463 should have been born by now."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Herrscher of the Thousand have arrived and possess abilities vastly different from those of the Previous Civilization. Judging from their current performance, they are capable of seizing the powers of other Herrscher."
"Great! This is exactly what I wanted!"
Bai Ge's Golden Eyes shone brightly at this moment, like a hunter who had found his prey.
He deliberately had the Gray Serpent awaken him at this time, all for the sake of the Current Civilization's Tenth Herrscher, the Herrscher of the Thousand!
The abilities of the Herrscher of the Thousand of the Previous Civilization were very weak; they were merely a thousand simple superpowers that could communicate through quantum entanglement and were far inferior to the Herrscher Authority.
But the Herrscher of the Thousand of Current Civilization are different.
They were created by Herrscher Honkai specifically to deal with the Herrscher, since it is well known that most of the Herrscher in the Current Civilization are Honkai traitors who stand on the side of humanity.
Their domineering power, capable of seizing the Herrscher Authority, is the final piece of the puzzle that Bai Ge needs!
"My Lord, the Herrscher of the Thousand were actually defeated by the St. Freya Academy and Anti-Entropy yesterday."
Gray Serpent then presented the intelligence he had gathered.
"The Lord has just awakened and is unaware that the Herrscher of this era are incredibly unique, unlike those of our time, and have given rise to many Herrscher from the human faction."
"The Herrscher of the Void among them is named Kiana Kaslana. Just yesterday, she used her own power as bait to gather Herrscher of the Thousand together, and then joined forces with the two major organizations, St. Freya and Anti-Entropy, to wipe them out."
"We have obtained accurate intelligence that the total number of Herrscher of the Thousand who were defeated was 1,000, and we have also obtained several cores of Herrscher of the Thousand were defeated."
Gray Serpent looked at Bai Ge respectfully and took out several Herrscher of the Thousand that he had prepared beforehand.
As a member of the Previous Civilization, he knew that his savior possessed a power of "foreseeing the future" that surpassed that of a certain [Discipline] Flame-Chasers.
The reason why the Previous Civilization suffered such few casualties was almost entirely due to Bai Ge's command that foresaw the future.
Moreover, Gray Serpent had long suspected that since his Lord could see all the futures of the Previous Civilization, could he also see the future of this Current Civilization?
If that's the case, then the Lord's request to awaken him at this time must have a deeper meaning.
The moment the Herrscher of the Thousand were born, Gray Serpent knew that Bai Ge's target was very likely this Herrscher! Therefore, the capable Gray Serpent immediately made various preparations and even obtained the core of the Herrscher of the Thousand in advance.
Gray Serpent: (Everything for the Lord! White Gate!)
Bai Ge: "Well done, Gray Serpent, but the Herrscher of the Thousand haven't been dealt with yet; they're just pretending to be defeated."
Knowing the plot, Bai wouldn't fall for it.
Now comes the crucial moment! A thousand people are about to make a comeback!
But...
Bai Ge: "Let me test the strength of the Herrscher of the Thousand of this era. I hope it will be fun."
Second update. Please give me flowers, votes, and tips!
Chapter 373, The Herrscher of the Thousand: Bai Ge is Dead!! (Please Subscribe)
The Herrscher of the Thousand of the Current Civilization (Herrscher of Dominion) are the only way that Bai Ge found to protect Elysia's life while freeing the Herrscher from Honkai control.
Because the Current Civilization produces a Herrscher of the Human, most of them have betrayed the Honkai and joined the human camp.
Therefore, in order to deal with these Herrscher of the Human, Honkai gave the originally weak Herrscher of the Thousand a massive buff, granting them the power to control other Herrscher Authority.
Note! This is domination, not seizure.
Unlike Bai Ge, who [seizes] the cores of other Herrscher and embeds them into the Void Archives or puts them into their bodies to exert their powers.
In the Current Civilization, the [Domination] of the Herrscher of the Thousand does not require obtaining the core; it simply involves seizing the powers of the other Herrscher.
Bai Ge: "This is the only hope! The Herrscher of Origin and the Herrscher of Finality are both special Herrscher who do not need a core, and whose very existence is power."
In other words, as long as he obtains the power to control the Herrscher of the Thousand of the Current Civilization, he can control Elysia's the Origin Authority and use it to make a wish on behalf of that Pink Fairy Lady!
As for how to return from the Current Civilization to the Previous Civilization, it's quite simple. Just steal Otto Apocalypse's plan and use it to reach the Imaginary Tree, and you can travel back 50,000 years through the Imaginary Tree to return to the past.
Returning to the last day of the Previous Civilization before Bai Ge kept his promise!
Bai Ge: "Dog Tout only went back 500 years, so it shouldn't be too much for me to go back 50,000 years, right?"
However, a problem arose here.
Because Bai Ge returned to the Current Civilization directly through the [All Things Dormant] without ending the time travel, a serious conflict arose between the past and the future.
He traveled to the time of the Previous Civilization, when Kiana had just awakened the power of the Herrscher of the Void. However, [All Things Dormant] brought Bai Ge directly to the time when the Herrscher of the Thousand descended.
This caused serious disruption to the timeline.
This problem can no longer be solved by simple corrections.
Therefore, in order to resolve this irreparable contradiction, a parallel world that could handle it reasonably was born.
While "Bai Ge from the Parallel World" also changed the fates of Mei, Kiana, Bronya, Himeko, Sirin, and others, it came at the cost of her own life.
However, in this world where "Bai Ge from the parallel world" has died, "Bai Ge from the Prime World" is able to exist reasonably despite the problem of timeline disorder.
It must be mentioned here that the death of "Parallel World Bai Ge" is unrelated to "Prime World Bai Ge".
The former died because there was no system.
The system's existence is extremely unique; it is possessed only by "the Prime World Bai Ge," and even parallel worlds cannot replicate it.
Bai Ge: "This means that even in countless parallel worlds, we are unique! But that being said... that memory sharing just now was a bit too real."
It wasn't just memories, but also the feelings and emotions at the time. The memories the system had just given Bai Ge were almost as if he had personally experienced them.
However, Bai didn't really feel it deeply, because those things weren't much different from what he had done in his Prime World.
All I can say is that no matter which world he's in, he's still the same person—a fool who would sacrifice himself for the one he loves without hesitation.
In short, Bai Ge needs to seize control of the Herrscher of the Thousand in this parallel world, then return to the Previous Civilization to save Elysia, and finally return to the Prime World.
(The previous chapter seemed a bit disorganized, so here's a general explanation.)
Although Gray Serpent has handed over several Herrscher of the Thousand Cores to Bai Ge, he knows that his purpose has not yet been achieved.
Bai Ge, who was familiar with the game's storyline, knew that the defeat of the Herrscher of the Thousand was just an illusion, and that the total number of Herrscher of the Thousand in the Current Civilization was not 1,000, but 1,001.
The one person who was missed was enough to bring the remaining 1,000 back to life! So, if we're really talking about it, the Herrscher of the Thousand is the Herrscher is the most survivable and the most difficult to kill.
(Bai Ge: Yeah, in my past life, when I watched videos, there were always a few Herrscher of the Thousand in the comments section...)
The resurrected Herrscher of the Thousand will take advantage of the moment when the people of the Current Civilization are immersed in the joy of victory and become careless, and strike again to catch them off guard!
In the end, only by having the Kiana awaken and become a firefly can it be defeated... This is the situation in the original story.
