People from Beyond the Heavens, Song of Ruin, Sea Herrscher.

Sky Garden, a luxury residence, Sequence Number One.

The girl had just taken the animal crackers from Xiao Su when she couldn't help but stroke his soft, dark hair. Then, under his questioning gaze, she suddenly felt a little guilty.

No, Raiden Mei, if you do this, you'll be just as bad as that woman, Elysia!

She immediately told herself to let the guilt spread through her chest before removing her hand from the other person's head, feeling extremely shaken.

Xiao Su is so adorable right now that it easily evokes a maternal instinct in girls, making them want to pull her into their arms and cuddle her.

It's a pity, he's a married man.

Before the girl could let dangerous thoughts continue to spread in her mind, a red-highlighted encrypted file appeared in her email inbox, accompanied by a corresponding alert sound.

Raiden Mei's expression froze. In the century of memories she had accumulated, she had rarely seen such a high level of encryption.

After all, civilization has almost never gone through a period of turmoil. That Your Excellency suppressed all the Herrscher who came hundreds of years ago with his own strength, and the resulting Honkai Phenomenon and environmental erosion have never shaken the foundation of humanity.

In the centuries that followed, the only turbulence was the occasional setbacks and heavy casualties encountered when conquering other civilizations World Bubble.

However, all of this would basically involve directly dispatching a more powerful and domineering army, or even having His Majesty personally Your Excellency the expedition, to crush and dominate them in the fastest and most efficient way.

Such encrypted files are tantamount to saying that the information in question is either not a problem that can be easily solved by force, or a crisis that even His Your Excellency would find difficult to face alone.

Regardless of the specific scenario, assuming it has nothing to do with one's friends, it's likely to be an extremely troublesome situation.

Raiden Mei silently chose to open the document. After the soul detector in the courtyard scanned the corresponding wavelength, the password was unlocked, allowing the data and information inside to be seen.

About half a minute later, she quickly completed the process and understood why the message was sent directly to her email in an encrypted state.

In a sense, this is indeed an unprecedented situation.

The origin of the matter is very pure and simple.

Ninety percent of the Honkai Energy from the seventeen World Bubble breeding farms under the Taixu Sect was plundered by an unknown entity, which was suspected to exist in the form of spirit or Soul State, and also took away a certain amount of demon corpses.

Based on the quantity and type of missing demon corpses, it is highly likely that the other party took them away in order to deduce the corresponding breeding methods.

But everyone knows that this seemingly insignificant matter has been magnified and given immense importance due to the decrease in the number of demon corpses.

The reason is simple.

To His Your Excellency, the centuries-old demon corpses are like a treasure trove in the arms of a dragon; even the theft of a single gold coin from them would be enough to unleash a tsunami of fury.

The research department and other departments that depend on it for their favor will naturally feel overwhelmed by this.

The research department has now identified the true identities of the criminal gang by compiling data from past databases.

Initially, due to the numerous Lostbelt incidents that have occurred in the past six months, it was assumed that there was a high probability that it was related to this. However, after actual comparison and verification, it was found that the other party was not a product of the Lostbelt.

Rather, it is another advanced civilization.

In a sense, the other side and our side have something in common: they both plunder other civilizations.

Over the past few hundred years, the Taixu Sect, whose technology for connecting with other Leaf World was still immature, also encountered each other while attempting to take this path, and eventually made contact, with each side obtaining certain information from the other.

In short, the opposing civilization is a high-level civilization that hunts low-level civilizations and collects Honkai Energy for survival. They are bullies who prey on the weak and cowards who run rampant in the universe.

If they encounter an advanced civilization, they will secretly avoid it; otherwise, they will keep it captive and wait for it to mature before harvesting it.

It's obvious.

The difference between the Taixu Sect and this civilization lies in the fact that the former is far more rigid, domineering, and powerful than the latter.

The other party was also aware of this information. Theoretically, unless they were at their wits' end, it would be unreasonable for them to steal from the Proper World of the Taixu Sect.

Of course, these aliens are like a mobile wanderer, used to hiding everywhere. Perhaps they think that while the main force is at the Sin Domain Anchor Point, they can fight a guerrilla war and eventually escape.

However, Raiden Mei, who knew exactly how outrageous the Taixu Sect's technology points and army were, didn't think the other side could cause much trouble, nor did she think they would be that stupid.

Given this advanced civilization's past behavior of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, even if they coveted something of our civilization, they should absolutely not plunder any Honkai Energy or demon corpses.

To put it bluntly, the actions of those extraterrestrial visitors not only resulted in disproportionate costs and rewards, but also carried the risk of their entire race being wiped out.

Therefore, rather than the superficial issues of this matter, Raiden Mei is more concerned about the reasons why the other party has reached such a dead end. In addition, given the unusually gradual increase in Honkai Energy in the Proper World recently, perhaps something big is about to happen in this world.

Regardless of the circumstances, this incident wiped out the time the girl had felt she had plenty of just a few minutes earlier, leaving her with absolutely no time to continue her vacation.

In such an environment of one-man rule, even a high-ranking research minister must adhere to the most basic political correctness.

Raiden Mei glanced at Xiao Su, who had already started playing with the data cube, sighed, and still took the child's hand, preparing to use the permission to teleport to the research institute in Chao Xian City.

To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, let's bring the invincible Su Qing'an along for now.

As for whether he would be discovered by his colleagues or by His Your Excellency came on a whim, she was not worried.

After all, once the Soul Link between the two was severed, there was no one in the world who could detect their existence without their consent.

Five seconds later, accompanied by a spatial fluctuation within the courtyard, it fell into an empty, deathly silence once again.

Norway is an island nation located in the western part of the Scandinavian Peninsula, bordering the Arctic Ocean.

At this very moment, accompanied by the shattering sound that resounded in the ears of millions, the mayfly Nano rune patrolled the world according to a predetermined formula all lit up with a dazzling light.

The Tome of Cangxuan links to the personal crystals of all citizens, broadcasting the origin of the current anomaly:

"Red alert alert: Data detection indicates that Honkai Energy phenomenon, suspected to be caused by a powerful force, is occurring."

"First-class citizens can directly access the corresponding security sequence's World Bubble via the conveyor belt."

"Second-class citizens may queue in turn at the teleportation channel to travel to the other main urban areas. The cost of this teleportation will be reimbursed by the national treasury."

"The rest of the residents proceeded to their respective underground shelters in turn."

As this Sky Net system executed effective judgments and issued various guiding commands in an orderly manner, all the mayfly Nano rune, linked together in an extremely orderly ring of light, encircling the entire island from the atmosphere, creating a large defensive circle with the function of absorbing Honkai Energy and converting it into backup energy.

However, the spontaneously generated Honkai Energy tsunami ignored logic and reason, stubbornly surging from within, creating sounds like waves crashing against rocks, washing away layers of overlapping storms, and together with the buzzing sound of breaking apart, playing a tragic song of destruction.

In that instant, apart from the Tome of Cangxuan still repeating the voice instructing the escape, everyone who witnessed this strange phenomenon looked up in a daze at the sky filled with mayfly Nano rune and glimpsed an incredible scene.

That was... a colossal object that blotted out the sky, an island that existed between illusion and reality, drifting down like a kite.

This is a bizarre phenomenon that should have instilled even greater panic and fueled the public's desire to flee.

But at this moment, regardless of age, gender, or circumstances, everyone seemed to have their time frozen, all their movements uniformly stilled.

The entire island's inhabitants were drawn into that indescribable murmur, like a lament, letting their thoughts sink into a deathly, Lightless sea, listening to the ancient ballad that seemed to originate from nowhere.

The defensive barrier woven from Nano rune, slowly overlapped.

Storms, tsunamis, thunderstorms, hail, heavy snow, floods...

Countless bizarre Celestial Phenomenon, caused by overlapping Honkai Energy, ravaged city after city. Those who were stunned into silence sank into the swamp of death. Others were awakened by the songs, but lost their reason and became madmen, opening their arms to the overwhelming mirage.

Madness, ignorance, evil, and complete loss of reason.

Ghostly, faith, decadence, incomprehensible.

As this inexplicable calamity befell the world, countless aspects of human life were reduced to the skeletons of all living beings.

In the nearly thousand years that the Taixu Sect has dominated the world, never before has any Herrscher caused such a massive and terrifying loss of lives before even arriving.

The Sky Net system had barely detected the anomaly when, half a minute later, an unreasonable mirage and a large-scale mental attack directly destroyed a country with a population of six million, as if wiping away a speck of dust on a blank sheet of paper, leaving only a few faint stains.

In this hell on earth, a young girl emerged from the mirage. She wore an exquisite white robe resembling a priestess's garment, with a veil edged with blue patterns. Her beautiful, alluring face and her sea-blue eyes revealed a deep-seated indifference.

She seemed to emerge from the deep sea as a saint to worship the gods, or perhaps as a judge who brought about the destruction of all humanity, radiating an eerie stance that was neither human nor comprehensible.

The girl strolled through the icy Seawater, her gaze falling upon the skeletons and corpses of the foolish. Her expression remained unchanged, as if she had no empathy for any of it. Her eyes were filled with disgust, as if absorbing the essence of all things, revealing a profound emptiness.

She gazed at the distant main-city-class warship she had just jumped from the teleportation point to, and murmured, initially speaking in an unintelligible language, but gradually conforming to human logic, uttering clear words:

"Blindness, ignorance, and worthlessness should be destroyed."

Thus, this statement became a law.

Amidst the mirage, immeasurable Heaven and Earth Qi surged forth, swift as lightning, condensing into a black-red beam of light. Like a scepter of God, it swept lightly across the Mountain and Sea Warship named [Nine Phoenix], causing the unactivated Immortal Martial Puppet within, and even the warship itself, to melt and shatter together in the extremely highly concentrated beam of Honkai Energy.

But this was not the end. This offensive was like a hot knife slicing through butter, relentlessly annihilating the tsunamis, storms, and floods along its path, sweeping out a large vacuum zone. Thus, following the physical meaning of silence, it easily cleaved into the island's thick crust, forcefully spreading and falling endlessly from within.

At this moment, a violent earthquake struck every corner of the country called Norway. Skyscrapers and buildings of all kinds collapsed under the onslaught of various natural disasters. People in the streets and houses were like dust shaken off a chessboard, drifting with the force of the waves.

Countless natural disasters and human remnants are locked in a struggle, squeezing out a cacophony of noise, as if adding a few stirring drumbeats to the melody of this lament of destruction, thus proving the prosperity that once existed.

The ultimate result was that the entire Scandinavian Peninsula, like a sliced cake, shattered its crust amidst a deafening roar, forcibly separated by this immense force.

There is no power, no skill, no prelude.

The result achieved by such pure power has already sounded the highest alarm for the Taixu Sect.

This land, ruled by that Your Excellency, has not seen a true Herrscher for centuries, aside from the numerous Lostbelt phenomena of the past six months that have caused some turmoil. Let alone a mass casualty event with over a million deaths at once?

The culprit behind all this walked without flinching or avoiding the area where the Scandinavian Peninsula was cut off by a diagonal slit, stepping into the void, his pure white ceremonial robes with blue patterns swaying in the wind.

She gazed at the churning waves and floating ice, her expression indifferent, yet from her hazy memories, she recalled once again the true reason she had come to this Leaf World.

--To execute a foolish race that evaded the selection mechanism and scrambled for divine favor.

However, in the process of searching for this race, they discovered a vibrant world that they found even more repulsive. So they first projected their own projection from a distant light-year, creating this body to come here.

Even if there are some twists and turns in the middle, the ending will not change.

She will destroy that race, and she will also execute all the humans in this Leaf World.

The mirage-like island gradually merged with this devastated and scarred land, and the lament of destruction continued to rise and fall with the waves, rippling repeatedly and extending towards a wider area.

The mysterious young woman then slowly walked towards the direction in which the waves were rising...

Beneath the deep sea Sea of Quanta.

Satou Yunona, who was secretly plugging her ears with Honkai Energy, heard a mournful song that sounded like a murmur. She blinked in surprise, clearly sensing that something was intruding into her soul, distorting and interfering with her perception.

After experiencing five layers of overlapping records, the girl who was qualified to glimpse the Timeline only felt some noise and confusion. She looked at her companions who had also stopped communicating and the Pink Fairy Lady, and asked:

"Among the Flame-Chasers of the Sea of Quanta, were there any who loved to sing?"

As a memory entity from the Sea of Quanta, Elysia is essentially a void and non-existent thing, merely an existence that is a combination of intelligence and virtual soul. Yet even she could sense a strange wavelength that caused her to become disordered.

She responded:

"Among the Flame-Chasers, only Eden likes to sing, but her voice is a rare gem from the last era, not some unpleasant noise."

"Moreover, as a memory entity, my perception is probably different from yours. Although I can sense that something has spread in from beyond the Sea of Quanta, it is difficult for me to identify what kind of song it is."

Bronya frowned. As the only one among them who had not been superimposed on the records, she could more clearly perceive the chaos and ominousness that was stirring the strings of her consciousness.

Although the Herrscher seems to have a strange resistance to this, only feeling somewhat unpleasant, the meaning and events behind this song are likely to be extraordinary.

Kiana's situation was similar to Satou Yunona's; she was highly resistant to it and hardly felt any mental or physical discomfort. However, this inexplicable situation still bothered her a lot.

Theoretically speaking, this Sea of Quanta is located within a World Bubble, and the spatial layers of its outer shell are also chaotic and disordered, capable of appearing randomly in almost any corner of the world.

Even if such strange songs were being sung near the Arctic Ocean at this moment, there would be no reason for them to reach this place.

"Meow!"

The pure white kitten, which had been using its own power to transform the real into the illusory and curled up on Satou Yunona's hand as a tattoo, finally woke up from its sleep. It landed unhappily between the girl's thighs, its soft fur almost standing on end, as if it had seen a demon and was very uneasy.

Satou Yunona stroked its back, skillfully smoothing the fur of the kitten that had been acting as a mascot, scratching its chin, and then, hearing the purring sound, looked up to meet Elysia's gradually brightening eyes, and sighed:

Even Little White, who's always been like a pig and only knows how to sleep, is starting to get all worked up.

"What on earth happened outside? We didn't even have time to take the Class President's memory device with us!"

Elysia thought for a moment and replied:

"Class President? If you mean Hua."

"Her memories no longer exist here."
