Reencountering the Herrscher of the End

"I'm telling you very seriously, this is the child of you and MIE."

Xu Zifu levitated the Little White Ball with his mind, showing it to Kevin.

"That... I believe it."

The moment Kevin looked at the Little White Ball, he felt a connection, a bond of blood that couldn't be faked.

"And then, I! Call me Xu Yanwu! Not some Head of the War Gods!" Xu Yanwu's words drifted back to himself.

"This..."

Kevin awkwardly rubbed his nose. The truth was, he had been called the Head of the War Gods since he joined Fire Moth.

At that time, Xu Yanwu's brain was arguably Fire Moth's greatest weapon against the Honkai, and the pure energy extracted from it almost covered the entire expenditure of the organization.

Looking at Xu Yanwu's somewhat listless face now, Kevin wondered if Fire Moth had been draining too much energy from him...

"Hoo..." Xu Yanwu let out a long breath. Forcibly saving Kevin just now had consumed a lot of his energy, and he was already exhausted again.

Just now, Xu Yanwu had not only suppressed the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire to the ground but had also forcibly quelled the riot of the Herrscher Cores within the two Holy Judgments of Heavenly Fire.

As expected, using abilities on Herrscher Cores within Divine Keys was a bit of a stretch.

Xu Yanwu thought to himself.

"Kevin, although I've been staying in this laboratory, your generation of humans..." Xu Yanwu paused, as if trying to organize his thoughts. "Are about to be destroyed, aren't they?"

Kevin's expression turned somber. Xu Yanwu was telling the truth. "Yes, I can't fight the fourteenth Herrscher. She's too strong."

"Of course she's strong. I wasn't cut up like this for nothing..." Xu Yanwu rolled his eyes. "I'm not some expert at fighting the Honkai, and I have no solution for the final Herrscher either. You expecting anything from me from the start was ridiculous..."

"Mmm..." Kevin said dejectedly.

"However, your efforts won't be in vain."

Xu Yanwu's tone shifted, making Kevin's eyes light up. "What do you mean?!"

"This..."

Xu Yanwu glanced at the beautiful girls lying in the stasis pods behind him, twitching his nose slightly. "You probably won't see it, but the descendants of this Little White Ball, along with these girls, will be the hope of the next civilization..."

"Them..." Kevin hesitated, then asked Xu Yanwu, "Thank you for taking care of my child."

Xu Yanwu raised an eyebrow. "What? What are you going to do?"

"Before the final Herrscher destroys the world... I'm going to enter the stasis pod with my child with MIE." Kevin picked up the Little White Ball. Its special genes didn't cause him to be affected by the cold; he just curiously looked at the man holding him.

"So soon? Aren't you going to chat with me a bit longer?"

Xu Yanwu was a little annoyed. He had finally woken up, only to have to go back to sleep again. It felt terrible.

"If you leave now, you'll never see me again. Don't you want to ask about other things?"

Kevin lowered his eyelids. "I know, but I don't want to ask anymore."

"I only need to know that humanity will ultimately triumph. That's enough."

"I'm all alone now..."

Staying in the empty laboratory, Xu Yanwu felt an inexplicable loneliness.

When you know that you are the only one left in the entire world, how would you feel?

It was probably how Xu Yanwu felt now.

No relatives in the world, no friends in the world.

"Well... I can't die anyway, so I'll just wait for the next civilization.

It's only... fifty thousand years..."

Xu Yanwu's voice trembled slightly. Fifty thousand years of solitude, that was a cruel number.

"Hey, hey, hey! Kevin! I regret it! Take me with you into hibernation, ahhh!"

Xu Yanwu wailed and banged on the stasis pod door.

But it was useless.

Kevin and the Little White Ball had already entered deep hibernation.

Let alone Xu Yanwu shouting like this, even if the sky fell, they wouldn't react in the slightest.

Don't do this...

I'm so lonely by myself...

Seeing that he couldn't wake Kevin up, Xu Yanwu decided to go outside to a place with abundant Honkai energy, absorb some energy, and then directly enter the stasis pod.

However, when Xu Yanwu emerged from the base and looked at the hellish scene outside, his heart shuddered again.

"It really is a ruin... how cruel."

Xu Yanwu flew in the sky for a long time, looking at many places, and finally couldn't help but sigh, "Humanity has been destroyed again and again and again and again and again and again."

Xu Yanwu clicked his tongue. "I didn't pay close attention to the last civilization either. Was it also this miserable?"

"Humanity was never meant to be born."

A pleasant voice, yet one that sent shivers down Xu Yanwu's spine, came from behind his head.

"Eek!"

Startled by the voice, Xu Yanwu screamed and lunged forward, only to have his hair yanked by a delicate, jade-like hand.

"You've broken my seal, god from another world."

The jade hand turned Xu Yanwu's face, revealing an unfamiliar face that somehow felt familiar...

"I-I-I'm not some god from another world, I'm just an ordinary person..."

Xu Yanwu felt like crying, wondering how he'd ended up in the clutches of this powerful being again...

Is this Honkai world really this small...

The Herrscher of the End's golden eyes gazed at the trembling Xu Yanwu in her hand and shook her head. "No, you are a god, but it seems you can't quite control your power yet."

The Herrscher of the End patted Xu Yanwu's head. "Stop shaking, I'm not in a hurry to seal you."

"...Uh, it's not about whether you seal me or not... And you mentioned my power... is it immortality and wish fulfillment?"

Xu Yanwu managed to calm his nerves a little, appearing less terrified.

To his surprise, the moment Xu Yanwu spoke, the Herrscher of the End looked at him with a strange expression.

Xu Yanwu's mouth twitched. "Uh, what's wrong?"

"How would I know what your powers are?"

"..."

"Come with me."

The Herrscher of the End tugged on Xu Yanwu's hair, pulling him high into the sky.

Of course, we won't mention how much hair was pulled out in the process...

The Herrscher of the End only stopped when Xu Yanwu was foaming at the mouth.

"Look at this planet."

The Herrscher of the End's voice roused Xu Yanwu. "Huh?"

"This planet is beautiful, like a jewel."
