"Little white rabbit, you still want to run away?"

Watch as I pounce on my prey like a hungry tiger!

"Hehe, you can't catch me!"

The girl's lithe figure was like a fox spirit in the snow, light and free, exceptionally charming...

Although her birthday is coming soon, Kiana didn't go back to prepare in advance, but instead stayed in Olympus to continue her aid work.

Even after asking Gwen, she still preferred to find out her birthday present on her actual birthday rather than in advance.

After confirming Kiana's condition, Gwen then sought out Demeter, the only surviving god in the city at that time.

As a production ship for interstellar travel supplies, restoring Olympus to its original state is not an impossible task.

However, after being reminded by Gwen, she managed to suppress the impulse, offering only the necessary assistance and letting the children create their own future.

Gwen's reason for seeking out Demeter was quite simple: to ask if she had any medical records related to conditions like the Izanami.

Other worlds may not have destiny or Aeon of Nihility, but they may still have cases similar to the Izanami.

If there is a discrepancy, even a large one, it may still have some reference value.

Fortunately, due to the characteristics of its own model, Demeter did indeed have a few similar medical records. Although their effectiveness was questionable, Gwen still thanked them sincerely.

Demeter, however, said there was no need to worry about it.

Olympus's rebirth is also a rebirth for her; perhaps one day in the future, she will be able to repair her damaged personality.

Upon leaving Demeter, Gwen encountered another ally—

"Sister Eden?"

Looking at Eden, who had shed his opulent gown and was now dressed in a proper surveying uniform, exuding a more rustic and natural beauty than his former elegance and composure, Gwen's heart began to race again.

"Um?

"Gwen, you've arrived?"

Eden, who was carrying a large roll of blueprints, also showed a look of surprise and delight when he saw Gwen.

"You've come at the right time. Could you help me carry these blueprints?"

"Okay..."

Gwen reached out and took the neatly arranged blueprints, feeling their weight.

"Is this your new work, Sister Eden?"

"It can't be called that yet. For now, it can only be described as an integration based on the existing Olympus civilization's color scheme. If we want to truly innovate, there is still a very long way to go..."

Eden himself held a scroll of blueprints, standing shoulder to shoulder with Gwen, sharing his gains in this world.

Chapter 803 Eden's Harvest and Private Appraisal

Although Eden's most striking feature is his golden figure on stage and the captivating melodies flowing from his voice, as the most brilliant jewel of the most glorious era of Previous Civilization, Eden was not just a singer, but a true artist. As is well known, many famous artists are multi-talented.

For Eden, singing is just one of the things she is best at.

In addition, Eden has also made achievements in art-related fields such as painting, fine arts, and even fashion design.

For example, during the late stages of the Previous Civilization period, when the Flame-Chasing Moth came to the forefront, many of their designs were created by Eden, such as the distinctive uniforms of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers proposed by Elysia.

As the most dazzling jewel in the last brilliance of the Previous Civilization, and what many call "the last artist of the Previous Civilization," Eden also possesses a rather unique ability—

Beneath the surface of perception, whether prosperity or decline, lies the essence of that civilization.

Eden's most prized works were mostly built upon the glorious achievements of the Previous Civilization.

When everything had settled down, the departure of her dearest friend Elysia and the destruction of the Previous Civilization made Eden completely give up the will to live. She chose to leave her last song to the ruins of the civilization and die with the civilization that had laid the foundation for her glory.

Even Mobius at that time was moved by that final song.

After being Gwen, Eden was somewhat bewildered, but his instinctive love and curiosity for civilization as an artist suppressed Eden original will to die.

Elysia's resurrection completely dispelled the dark clouds in Eden's heart.

When Gwen showed hope of completely Honkai the Honkai, the enemy of civilization, Eden also rediscovered his former self, able to use that peaceful heart to observe and feel the breath of civilization.

For example, Olympus today, although its prosperity was once a false one built on the power of the gods, Olympian has its own unique culture.

With the gods they once relied on for survival nearly all dead or wounded, and only Demeter still offering some assistance, the Olympian, after a moment of confusion, quickly regained their composure and began to advance slowly.

Although they still couldn't completely escape the influence of the gods, after Demeter relinquished much power and entrusted the direction to humanity itself, these Olympian, most of whom had lived for tens of thousands of years, began to develop their own unique character and started building their own civilization on the ruins.

The original colors are still very rich, but they have also changed dramatically.

Witnessing the growth and rebirth of this civilization firsthand was a rare experience for Eden, allowing him to immerse himself in it, become a part of it, and meticulously experience the transformation and growth of this civilization.

"Originally, this process of change would take decades or even centuries to gradually emerge."

However, the unique circumstances of Olympus drastically shortened this process, reducing it from centuries to one or two months. In fact, ideas that could potentially impact the future of this civilization were proposed daily, like tender shoots emerging from withered trees, possessing limitless possibilities.

In the somewhat simple studio, Eden held a cup of hot tea brought by Gwen and recounted her recent achievements. A serene and charming smile graced her pretty face, and her gentle tone drew people into her words, inviting them to experience the unique atmosphere of civilization alongside her.

"Yes, although the world is a makeshift operation, it is precisely because of this makeshift operation that anything is possible, and incredible miracles can occur where the impossible is not possible."

Gwen smiled and nodded in agreement.

He didn't possess Eden's keen artistic sense, but the historical stories he had read since childhood taught him the allure of civilization.

"That's exactly right..."

Eden nodded with a smile, took a sip of the hot tea in her cup, and her fair face was slightly flushed from the still-hot tea.

"While I was here, what happened on Earth?"

Setting down his teacup, Eden asked curiously.

Although somewhat captivated by the rapid transformation of Olympus civilization, Eden never forgot about what was happening on Earth.

Although the current civilization differs from the Previous Civilization, it is also a continuation of the Previous Civilization, embodying the hard work of many people she knows.

"There aren't any major global events, but there are a few things you might be interested in—"

Gwen recounted some events from this period, such as reconnecting the World Bubble for You Lan Dai Er, the Candy House he encountered, and Ai, who was born in the time crystal and returned to the Ai Yi from the future.

Time travel...

"Ha... something I thought only existed in science fiction movies has actually happened."

Eden sighed—

"The world is truly full of surprises."

"Isn't that the charm of civilization?"

Gwen laughed...

After chatting for quite a while and listening to Eden's many new ideas, a thought flashed through Gwen's mind—

"By the way, Sister Eden, may I commission you to compose a ballad?"

Perhaps what you've gained here in Olympus will come in handy.

"Um?

I would like to hear the details.

Upon hearing this, Eden immediately sat up straight, eager to hear Gwen's request.

"Kiana... is not actually the real Kiana, but Experimental Subject created by Bishop Otto. However, Siegfried, who lost his daughter, gave her his daughter's name, which I'm sure you know."

Gwen set up a soundproof barrier to ensure that Kiana, who happened to be passing by, wouldn't hear him before speaking slowly.

"Um...

"Does he want me to compose a song for Kiana, to do my part for her rebirth?"

Eden asked curiously.

"That's not all—"

Gwen gave a mysterious smile and shook his head slightly—

"I mean, is it possible that Kiana Caslana, who went missing after her spacecraft was hit—did not die?"

"!"

Even with Eden's composed nature, he was taken aback by Gwen's words—

"What?"

Even in ordinary plane crashes, the mortality rate is almost 100%, with the exception of a miracle.

And since the downed aircraft did not have a parachute function, how could anyone possibly survive?

Especially since the target wasn't a powerful warrior, but a frail little girl!

"This is another inspiring story..."

Having finally unlocked Eden's new expression, Gwen began to recount Bianca's miracle with great pleasure.

Well, although You Lan Dai Er's short life of just over ten years was inspiring enough, Eden already knew the latter half of it all very well, Gwen only needed to tell a very short part of it.

After learning that You Lan Dai Er was actually the original Kiana who had fallen from a height of several thousand meters into a snow-covered mountain after the plane crash and was rescued by the pursuing Valkyrie forces, even Eden took a while to process this shocking news.

However, while he was awestruck by this physiological miracle, Eden did not forget his initial topic—

"If that's the case..."

I think I understand what kind of piece you need.

"Unfortunately, I thought of it a little late, and time may be a bit tight."

Gwen scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.

"Oh...

Have more faith in me.

At this opportune moment, countless inspirations are surging through my mind.

Eden covered his mouth and smiled, his eyebrows curving upwards, a rare hint of pride showing in his eyes—

"Even if I only have one night, I can create a piece that is most suitable for these two special sisters."

"Then I'll thank you on their behalf."

Gwen, of course, believed in Eden's abilities and said with a smile.

"You will definitely not be disappointed."

Eden smiled, picked up his teacup again, and changed the subject, asking—

"Speaking of which, it's been a while since that series of Honkai that occurred worldwide, hasn't it?"

Have you found any clues about the Erosion Herrscher?

At the end of the Previous Civilization, the Erosion Herrscher delivered a fatal blow to the already riddled Previous Civilization, completely sealing the coffin of the once glorious Previous Civilization. Eden will never ignore this enemy, for whom negligence could be fatal.

"Not yet, but the project I jokingly mentioned earlier has brought Ai Yi out of the picture."

She said she would provide relevant clues after Kiana's birthday.

Gwen gave Eden an answer that reassured him somewhat.

"That's right. With intelligence support from the future, this most dangerous hurdle before the Finality is actually quite simple."

Eden suddenly realized that in her concern, she had completely overlooked Ai Yi's presence.

"However, Ai Yi will only provide information after Kiana's birthday..."

Does this also conceal some kind of information?

After a moment's thought, Eden asked the question.

"Perhaps that's the case—"

Gwen nodded.

"The Erosion Herrscher possesses a certain degree of delay compared to other Herrscher."

It doesn't seem to really manifest itself until certain conditions are met.

In other words, it will take a little time for the Erosion Herrscher to truly take shape.

That timeframe might just happen to be around Kiana's birthday.
