Humanity

"Okay! Figurines, right? I'll make them for you right now..."

Heh heh heh, people in the Sky Ship's Legion on Earth, did you see this! Did you see it! A beautiful girl's request! Your waifu Nuwa's request!

Do you think I can refuse?

Of course not!

Not only are we going to make figurines!

We're going to make them meticulously, in great detail!

To the point where you could zoom in and use them as inflatable dolls if they were life-sized!

"Watch closely... this is a stone..."

Xu Yanwu casually picked up a stone from the ground and held it out to Danzhu and Cang Xuan: "Next, it's time to witness a miracle!"

"Transform!"

Xu Yanwu silently gave the command in his mind. The stone began to writhe strangely in Xu Yanwu's palm, twisting and deforming. As it continuously shifted towards a human form, layers of excess stone powder fell away.

Then, under the gaze of the three, the stone transformed into Danzhu's likeness.

A lively and adorable little girl stood with her hands on her hips, revealing half of a small canine tooth as if threatening something. However, she didn't appear fierce at all; instead, one felt an urge to scoop her up and hug her tightly...

Hmm, super fierce...

"Uncle Xu Yanwu, didn't you say you'd use the best materials? Why is it made of stone?" Danzhu pouted slightly, clearly dissatisfied.

"Don't rush it..."

Xu Yanwu grinned slyly and wiped his hand over the stone: "Change the material to the most suitable rubber and alloy skeleton, then add color."

As soon as Xu Yanwu finished speaking, he felt a slight drain on the energy he had stored for so many years, and the weight in his hand began to lighten.

Danzhu's expression shifted from dissatisfaction to shock, then from shock to delight, and finally, she pounced forward: "Ah! So amazing!"

"See? See! I'm that amazing!"

After Danzhu's praise, Xu Yanwu's nose practically pointed to the sky.

"Then, Uncle Xu Yanwu, since you're so amazing, why are you only left with a head?"

Danzhu asked curiously, hugging her figurine.

"..." Zhenned, little Fei.

"I couldn't defeat the Last Herrscher."

Xu Yanwu said with a dejected expression. He truly couldn't defeat the Herrscher of the End. Not only could he not defeat her, but he was also pinned down and sealed the moment he appeared...

However...

Xu Yanwu recalled. The Herrscher of the End seemed wary of him?

She had also said before that she couldn't do anything to him.

Gods from other worlds... immortal and indestructible... wishes come true...

Perhaps I actually have the power to threaten the Herrscher of the End.

"Your current strength might not even be enough to defeat a Herrscher," Cang Xuan commented objectively on Xu Yanwu's power.

"Nonsense! Do you think I want this?!"

Xu Yanwu shouted in frustration. "The moment I appeared, humanity was already fighting the Last Herrscher. Do you think I'd have the power to shake the heavens and earth the instant I showed up?"

"Besides, my body isn't here right now. How am I supposed to fight a Herrscher? I'd be lucky if I could fight them to a standstill..."

Xu Yanwu was genuinely annoyed. Logically speaking, encountering the final boss immediately after transmigrating was a very frustrating situation...

"However, I do possess the ability to threaten the Herrscher of the End," Xu Yanwu's spirits lifted. "Although the Herrscher of the End sealed me, in your civilization, I broke free from the seal and escaped from the Last Herrscher. From now on, as long as I find my body! It won't be impossible to fight the Herrscher of the End."

Yet, what Xu Yanwu was thinking internally was...

That little brat sealed me for so many years and even chopped off my head... You're finished! My fear of women won't save you this time! I, Xu Yanwu, will pin you to the bed and do unspeakable things!

Cang Xuan glanced at Xu Yanwu.

Why is it that even though what Xu Yanwu is saying sounds righteous and not like a lie, I still feel like he's thinking of something lewd...?

"Well, let's put that aside for now. At the end of your civilization, the Last Herrscher said some things to me. Do you want to hear them?"

"What things?" (x2)

Xu Yanwu, with a self-proclaimed mysterious and unfathomable smile that was actually quite lewd, began to speak.

"The Last Herrscher believes that humans should not exist in this world."

"She believes humans are pests in this world."

"But I don't think so."

"Humans don't have the imposing presence of lions and tigers, nor the massive bodies of whales and elephants. They lack the agility of birds and the long lifespan of turtles. They don't even have the reproductive capacity of mice."

"However, humans possess one thing that other creatures can never match: intelligence."

"It is precisely because of intelligence that humans can use fire to drive away invading animals."

"It is precisely because of intelligence that humans have learned to use tools to fight creatures more powerful than themselves."

"It is precisely because of intelligence that humans can climb from the bottom of the food chain to the throne of the world."

"Humans are not gods, but humans are the masters who have fought their way to the top on Earth! This was not granted by anything! Nor can it be erased by anything with a single sentence!"

Xu Yanwu's expression suddenly became agitated.

"Humans are not gods! But human potential is not limited to that of gods!"

"Soaring through the nine heavens to embrace the bright moon, diving into the five oceans to gather dragon rock."

"What gods can do! Humans can do it too, and even do it better!"

"The Honkai may be powerful! But it has never destroyed the will of humanity!"

"You guys..."

Xu Yanwu originally wanted to say more, but when he lowered his head, he found... two little heads slumped on the table in front of him.

Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu had fallen asleep during Xu Yanwu's rambling speech, and Dan Zhu even had a little snot bubble forming at her nose.

As for Cang Xuan, although she was usually emotionless, she was still emotionless even in her sleep...

If it weren't for her slight breathing, Xu Yanwu would have thought she was dead...

"Pfft..."

Xu Yanwu chuckled, amused by the two sisters.

These two sisters were really bold, falling asleep right in front of him, a man. Weren't they afraid he'd do something to them...

Xu Yanwu suddenly fell silent. Damn it, I don't have any...!

Never mind, never mind... I can't really do anything to them, can I...

Speaking of which, have these two girls become less wary of me...

As Xu Yanwu's thoughts shifted, two arms formed of energy turned into fine, thread-like strands, which then continuously intertwined, finally forming two large cotton-like masses.

Xu Yanwu bent down, picked up the two sisters, and wrapped them in the cotton: "Alright... I've become someone who takes care of others... Never mind, never mind, as long as they don't catch a cold..."
