A smile appeared on Su's lips. He knew the person he was waiting for had finally arrived. He got up and left.

"It seems I must go first, Kevin. Goodbye, my dearest friend."

Upon hearing that it was Su who sealed Kevin in the Sea of Quanta, everyone's faces showed surprise and deep doubt. Judging from the fact that Su still called Kevin his best friend, it seemed that the two of them had not fallen out.

Why did Sue seal Kevin away?

Four words came to mind.

Stigmata Project.

Aside from Kevin's insistence on carrying out the Stigmata Project, they couldn't think of any reason why Sue would take action against Kevin.

Kevin looked at Sue with the eyes of someone looking at a traitor.

"Su, you betrayed me?!"

Kevin never imagined that the one who had rebelled against him, as mentioned in Fu Hua's words, was actually his good brother Su.

"It must be your fault, otherwise I wouldn't have sealed you away."

Su knew his own personality well; if Kevin hadn't insisted on carrying out the Stigmata Project and harmed innocent people, he would never have sealed away his best friend.

"What?!"

Kevin saw this as a case of turning the tables on him, which made him even angrier.

If Mei hadn't been holding him back, he probably would have pounced on Su long ago.

Mei's eyes were full of vigilance.

According to Vill-V's guess, Kevin was Merlin who was eventually imprisoned by the Lady of the Lake. So, wouldn't the Lady of the Lake be the one who sealed Kevin away?

There was a mix-up back in college. After Kevin and Mei started dating, one day they saw Kevin and Su with their arms around each other. Because of Su's long hair and pretty face, Mei unsurprisingly mistook Su for a girl.

Although the misunderstanding was eventually cleared up, Mei still felt embarrassed whenever she recalled it. Later on, she would always have a strange feeling when she saw Sue and Kevin's interactions.

But Su didn't know any of this. He couldn't understand why Mei was looking at him with such a wary gaze.

"..."

Yaqing smiled silently.

Next, Durandal and Rita play Kevin and Sue, it should be time for May to be on her guard.

"I have a feeling you're not thinking anything good?"

Mobius's pretty face showed suspicion.

"Senior, how could that be? I am an upright person by nature and would never think of harming anyone."

Yaqing said with righteous indignation.

I silently added a few more words in my mind, "Except for acquaintances."

Mobius rolled his eyes at this and said disdainfully, "If you're a good person, then there are no bad people in the world."

"So that's what my senior thinks? I'm so sad~"

The scene shifts to the Schicksal Headquarters. A week has passed since Otto obtained the Second Divine Key. Through the records inside the Soul Compendium of the Thousand Realms, Otto has learned about the Imaginary Tree and the purpose of the Second Divine Key.

Overjoyed, Otto knew his wish was no longer a fantasy; the Second Divine Key was the key he was looking for. Forcing himself to calm down, he realized that the record was like bait, urging him to activate the Second Divine Key.

Knowing it might be a trap, Otto had to activate it and could only make thorough preparations.

At this point, the audience understood why Otto had such a profound understanding of the Imaginary Tree in the main storyline: because the Imaginary Tree was an indispensable element in reviving Kallen.

The purpose of the Second Divine Key is to bring Otto to the Imaginary Tree.

"So, the tree Su relied on was the Imaginary Tree?"

Elysia was surprised.

"This blind man is quite capable."

Kalpas gave it the highest rating.

"Kalpas, I was just squinting, not blind."

Su tried his best to prove that he wasn't blind. After all, he studied Western medicine, and although he had learned a little about traditional Chinese medicine, he couldn't diagnose diseases by feeling bones like a blind person.

"It shouldn't be the Imaginary Tree. Su himself said that he locked himself in the Second Divine Key and used the Divine Key to observe other World Bubble, so it's most likely a projection of consciousness."

Vill-V shook her head.

"Ah, so it's not the Imaginary Tree after all."

Elysia was a little disappointed.

"Is the person Su is waiting for Otto?"

Sakura frowned.

In the previous scene, Kevin that the person she was waiting for had arrived. In the next scene, Otto knew it was a trap, but he still activated the Second Divine Key.

"Impossible, the person Su is waiting for can't be Otto."

"Why?"

Sakura didn't understand why Aponia was so resolute.

"Because the name of this web series is Durandal."

Aponia smiled gently, making a joke.

Sakura smiled. It made sense. Since the web series was all called Durandal, the main character must be Bianka, and Su was waiting for her.

In the training room of the Schicksal Headquarters, Durandal is running. Amber has delivered Otto's message: the activation experiment for the Second Divine Key will be in 12 hours, and she should prepare.

Durandal turned her head and saw Susannah lying in a puddle of water on the ground.

It's obvious that they've been overtrained.

After Susannah recovered, she said that she could become stronger by learning Durandal's training method, but she was so tired after only a short time that she asked Durandal for a way to become stronger.

Durandal touched Susannah's forehead with one finger and spoke softly.

"The first lesson I taught you was... don't just imitate others, find your own path."

"That's right, this little girl is indeed capable."

Kalpas crossed his arms, his face covered with a face mask and garnished with a few slices of cucumber. Those familiar with him know that this is already a high compliment for Kalpas.

If you mention the name, that's the highest praise.

"It seems that this sentence will be the core of this chapter."

Vill-V fell into deep thought.

Does blind imitation mean that modern civilization should not imitate Previous Era, or does it mean that modern civilization must take a completely different path from Previous Era?

"The plot involving Su, which the Pioneers handed over to Durandal, was probably taught by Su."

Mei couldn't help but glance at Su's muscles under his shirt.

None of the Previous Era Fusion Warrior appearing now are weak in combat power.

Kevin needs no further explanation; he's the one who brought down the Finality.

Fu Hua, facing a six-core Herrscher, managed to knock the Collapse God offline. If it weren't for the Collapse Consciousness, she could have soloed Sirin.

Sakura's sword can freeze time.

Although Sue appears gentle, in anime, the more gentle a person is, the more terrifying their combat power is. Being able to seal Kevin means she is at least a high-level fighter.

Su didn't think his combat strength was that high. He was a frail and scholarly person.

If Yaqing hadn't seen the extent of Su's workout at the gym last time, she would have almost believed it to be true.

429

Chapter 429 Su is the villain? Everyone was shocked.

The experiment for the Second Divine Key is about to begin. Otto tells Durandal to stay vigilant and protect the core of the Second Divine Key no matter what happens.

As the experiment began, a purple beam of light shot into the sky, revealing a huge, bottomless circular opening in the air, like an abyss, with a star at its center.

Durandal seemed to hear a gentle male voice telling her not to worry and urging her to step inside.

Enveloped in purple light, Durandal vanished into the distance, and the cave entrance closed. Otto then realized he had been tricked and immediately ordered the energy from the other floating islands to be transferred, preparing to restart the experiment.

Suddenly, Durandal's past, her life, appeared in the shot.

Durandal watched Sue sitting under the tree warily.

Su, however, continued talking about how deeply Durandal's existence impressed him, and then introduced the World Bubble he had created, named "Sumeru Mustard Seed."

I thought the World Bubble sealed within Durandal's body was powerful enough, but I never expected someone to be even more daring than her, actually able to create a World Bubble.

"Creating World Bubble?!"

Pardo's eyes widened.

In "Angel Rebuild", they witnessed the Sea of Quanta and the World Bubble, each World Bubble symbolizing a parallel world.

"Tch, this blind man is quite capable."

Kalpas crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"Are all Fusion Warrior from Previous Era this terrifying?"

Vill-V was stunned. You know, the strongest warriors in the current civilization are Durandal and Xinqi, and neither of them can create a World Bubble.

What is the concept of creating World Bubble? It is equivalent to the creator of a world.

"To survive the battle at the Finality, one must possess special abilities. However... Su's World Bubble seems to be very different from other World Bubble. Kevin did the same thing."

Mei hesitated for a moment.

Kevin used his memories to create a World Bubble, allowing Seele to experience it.

Only then did everyone recall the plot of the Angel Rebuild.

"Yeah, Kevin tried it too. Does that mean every Fusion Warrior from the Previous Era could create World Bubble?"

Elysia was stunned.

There were at least hundreds or thousands of Fusion Warriors from the Previous Era. If every one of them were like Kevin, how terrifying would the Herrscher of Binding be to be called the "Binding Tragedy"?

How can modern civilization possibly overcome this Herrscher?

"Wait, I suddenly remembered, since Su can use the Chijie Yicheng to observe other worlds, and has also observed Durandal's life, then when Durandal was taking a bath..."

Kevin's expression grew increasingly strange as he spoke.

Everyone watched as Su Lu revealed herself, and they realized that this was the kind of person she was.

Even the gentlest Su had veins bulging on her forehead at this moment.

"Just kidding, just kidding."

Kevin quickly chuckled awkwardly.

He's not some Previous Era's strongest warrior; Su's punch could probably kill this untrained office worker.

Kevin's antics made everyone burst into laughter.

["Who are you?"

Upon hearing about the World Bubble created by the person in front of her, Durandal immediately asked a question with caution.

Su stated that he had no ill intentions and that his mission was to protect humanity in this era and help them defeat the Honkai.

Perhaps feeling that this wouldn't gain Durandal's trust, Su showed her the function of the Second Divine Key. A virtual screen suddenly appeared, displaying Durandal from various timelines.

Su found the most perfect way to Honkai the Durandal is an essential part of this method.

"Miss Bianka, in order to save the world, I need you to follow my instructions."

Cold sweat trickled down Durandal's cheeks. She wouldn't trust Su just because of his few words. Before trying to win people over, she should at least tell them how to defeat the Honkai.

But Su rejected that very sentence.

"Countless threads of cause and effect are intertwined here, their intricate complexity beyond description."

Su's words left the audience completely bewildered.
