The goal, surprisingly, was to make it think.

There must be a deeper meaning behind this that ordinary people cannot understand.

Lie Yan's golden eyes were also filled with shock as she looked at Ji Dong beside her. "It's like... we deliberately ignited an inextinguishable volcano and hoped it would burn according to our wishes."

Ji Dong remained silent, only tightening his grip on her hand.

He couldn't judge whether the plan was right or wrong, because it had transcended the realm of good and evil and entered a vast domain he couldn't comprehend, called "the survival of civilization."

Ignoring the crowd's shock, the Light Screen coldly continued to state the facts.

[Although activating the plan would erase the collective consciousness of Prometheus 17, it succeeded at the moment of the Finality.]

"Collective consciousness... erased?"

Huo Yuhao keenly caught the word.

His heart sank.

Collective consciousness means that Prometheus 17 is not a solitary entity, but a vast group.

"Erasing" is the most complete form of death, leaving no trace of its existence.

What a tragic and heroic sacrifice!

For a Nihility and elusive goal, an intelligent being with "collective consciousness" chose self-destruction.

"They... are alive."

Xiao Xiao's voice trembled slightly.

Although she didn't understand what "AI" was, she understood the word "consciousness".

To have consciousness means to have life.

"To sacrifice an entire... 'clan' for a plan?" Tang Ya's face was pale. She thought of the Tang Sect of the past, and those who sacrificed themselves for the sect.

But the scale of the sacrifices before us is too enormous.

"This is the necessary price to pay."

A cold voice rang out; it was the Dragon God.

A complex light flickered in his majestic dragon eyes.

"Any price is acceptable for the continuation of the race. They are not doing it for themselves, but for a future they will never see."

Gu Yuena stood to the side, her long silver hair swaying slightly.

She gazed at the Light Screen, a feeling of indescribable resonance welling up within her.

Sacrifice... for the future...

The same applies to the Soul Beast Clan.

However, even she was horrified by the sheer determination and madness of this human sacrifice.

The image on the Light Screen began to change.

It was no longer just words; three blurry human figures appeared.

One of them was a woman in a white lab coat, with a calm and intellectual demeanor; she was the Doctor. MI.

One was Mobius, a woman with a seductive figure who seemed to merge with a snake, whose eyes were filled with a mad curiosity about the mysteries of life.

The last one is like a collection of countless different images, ever-changing and full of creative and imaginative vitality; that is Vill-V.

These three women spearheaded this astonishing plan that spanned 50,000 years.

The images flowed, revealing countless complex data streams composed of light, which converged into a vast network.

This is the collective consciousness of "Prometheus".

They have no physical form, yet possess a wisdom far greater than any other life form.

Then, a portion of them, marked "Number 17," transformed into a sharp stream of "virus" data, like a chosen Undead Soldier, and rushed headlong into the chaotic and violent sea of energy that represented "Honkai."

Everyone held their breath.

They could almost hear that silent cry.

That was Prometheus 17, launching its final assault on the Honkai with its very "existence."

[The new generation of Honkai generates "consciousness," continuing the pattern of Herrscher birth from Previous Civilization.]

The text on the Light Screen provided the final answer.

It was a success.

This incredibly crazy plan actually succeeded!

"Why... why continue the pattern of Herrscher birth?" Ning Rongrong asked, puzzled. "Aren't Herrscher the embodiment of destruction? Isn't letting them continue to appear just torture for the new civilization?"

"No."

Tang San slowly shook his head, his voice dry and hoarse, because he had finally figured out the key to it.

"It's not torture, it's 'anchoring'."

He looked at Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin, who also seemed to have realized what was happening.

"A completely unknown enemy is invincible. The destruction of Previous Civilization paved a path for future generations, though fraught with thorns, at least one that is 'visible'."

"They forcibly Honkai the indescribable beast of Honkai into an 'actor' who only acts according to a fixed script!"

"While the appearance of the Herrscher was a disaster, their order of appearance and ability tendencies had already been thoroughly understood by the Previous Civilization. This intelligence is the most valuable legacy they left to the new civilization!"

"Using the destruction of one civilization to provide a 'syllabus' for the next civilization..." Duke Dai Hao gasped, feeling a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

This kind of approach can no longer be described as "Emperor tactics".

This is a scheme devised by "God"! No, it's even more profound than God's plan!

Because the Gods protect their own followers, while they protect a group of "descendants" they have never met and who are even unaware of their existence.

[Mobius also vanished after the plan was completed.]

The last words fell.

On the screen, the woman, as alluring and beautiful as a snake, began to transform into countless green specks of light, which gradually dissipated.

Her face showed no pain, no resentment, only a calm after completing her mission, and a hint of... barely perceptible fatigue.

She studied the ultimate meaning of life in pursuit of "Infinity," but in the end, she herself also faced her "end."

Her demise, however, was to begin a completely new cycle.

"Another one..."

Ye Yinzhu sighed softly.

From Kevin to Elysia, and now to Mobius.

These heroes from Previous Civilization, each in their own way, met their predetermined ends.

Their sacrifice was so heavy it was suffocating.

A'Dai watched quietly, a hint of pity appearing Mandun his once naive, now profound eyes.

He understands that feeling.

Once the mission is accomplished, the existence of the self seems to lose its meaning.

Mobius's disappearance was not death, but a return.

All the text and images on the Light Screen disappeared.

The entire space was plunged into darkness once again.

Everyone thought that this phase of the review was over.

However, right in the very center of this extreme darkness...

A ray of light appeared.

No, that's not light.

It was a chaotic, violent energy nebula filled with destructive energy, the very embodiment of the "Honkai" they had seen before.

It was still churning and roaring.

But in the deepest part of that endless chaotic storm.

A single point.

A cold, emotionless "point of consciousness," yet containing boundless wisdom, was ignited.
