Create a parallel world in the name of "What If" and "Fiction"!

"After fooling your friends, fooling your enemies, fooling the world and the rules above it, you will successfully touch the Imaginary Tree and travel back 500 years to avert the tragedy when Kallen was killed by a Honkai beasts while saving an innocent passerby. At that moment, the branches of the Imaginary Tree will flow to another node, creating a Parallel World where Kallen is still alive. Even if it comes at your own cost, I think you won't care."

Yes, I don't care!

Otto was screaming in his heart.

"As I describe this method to you now, your future methods will still work, and may even end this sooner because of my guidance."

That's great!

Otto's joy was palpable.

"But do you remember what I just said? As a price for the countless tragedies you have created, I'm going to play a little joke on you."

What a joke!

Otto gradually developed a bad feeling.

"At this moment, I will sever time completely, severing the world of the Previous Civilization from that of this civilization, just so that I can return to the Previous Civilization and arbitrarily change Previous Civilization ending, turning the two civilizations from a causal relationship to a parallel one. And do you know what that means?"

What does it mean?

Otto slowly widened his eyes.

"This means that your only way to save Kallen —by reversing time and going back 500 years—is completely hopeless. Because now is the starting point of this civilization, and the earlier times will become the background of this civilization, something to be admired from afar but never touched."

You're essentially murdering my future! You can't do that.

"And do you know what's even more despairing?" Chen Li said slowly, then threw the dice in his hand.

What is it?

"After I finish speaking these words and sever the connection between the Previous Civilization and the Current Civilization, as a price, all my causal anchors in the Second Honkai will be erased, which means that you will not be able to remember my actions and words."

??!

"You will forget what I did, and then fool everything in vain until you touch the Imaginary Tree to reverse time. Only then will you realize that everything you did was in vain, and even though Kallen's resurrection is just around the corner, it will never be achieved!"

"You will experience the same despair again."

"I'm really looking forward to seeing your expression then!" Chen Li's face showed a pleased expression.

However, this pleasure came to an abrupt end after seeing the die roll a [1] point.

Chen Li kicked the Joy Dice in annoyance, instantly reducing the 10 Joy Points to zero. The dice flipped over again, revealing a new number. [11]

There's something wrong with this die. Chen Li has excellent luck when using it to solve small problems, but it always fails at crucial moments.

Could this die be named after Tohsaka?

Fortunately, Chen Li had developed the habit of never using this die to solve important matters before accumulating 10 Joy Points.

Chen Li looked forward to the changes that this Joy Dice would bring to him.

Because Chen Li wants to use the Judgment of All Things to sever the connection between the Previous Civilization and the Current Civilization, he needs to do one more thing: Chen Li needs to see "time".

Fortunately, this was within the scope of our abilities regarding dice.

"It's you! I remember now! You severed time! You extinguished my hope! You destroyed everything!" A hysterical voice entered Chen Li's ears.

Chen Li turned his head and saw another Otto, dragging his tired body and holding the Divine Fire Sacred Judgment. The expectation and joy that had been on his face turned into despair and anger the moment he saw Chen Li.

"So that's how it's solved? The Joy Dice are amazing!" Chen Li burst out laughing when he saw this person.

Hey, isn't that Otto?

Why do you look so bloated after just a few days?

"Ah!" Otto charged at Chen Li with the Divine Fire Sacred Judgment, swinging his greatsword at Chen Li like a madman, but was easily blocked by the Friends Circle.

"Come on, let's take a picture together." Chen Li carelessly took out his camera and then posed for a photo with his back to Otto.

Chen Li didn't know if this was the real Otto of the future or a future possibility brought about by the Joy Dice.

But anyway, it was just so much Elation!

Strength is genuine, expression cannot be imitated, and hysterical despair is unparalleled!

After recognizing himself through the screen as the figure of the seemingly invincible Chen Li, who was attacking him futilely in the distance, Otto felt as if all his strength had been drained, and he slumped into his chair.

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around. Hurry up and go back to where you belong. Then, considering your contribution to the coexistence between the Previous Civilization and Current Civilizations, I might give you another chance to Resurrection Card. How about it?" Chen Li said with interest to the hysterical Otto.

"..." Otto stopped attacking.

Because he was already exhausted.

Breaking through the barrier of the Imaginary Tree was already a defying act, and launching a continuous attack on Chen Li was the final ripple of Otto's resentment at this moment.

Chen Li's last words gave Otto both hope and drained Otto of his last bit of strength and energy.

"You... write a written agreement," Otto said slowly.

"Huh, did I hear that right? You want me to sign a written agreement? On what grounds?"

"I will give you everything I can, just in exchange for one chance," Otto said slowly, leaning against the tangible Friends Circle shield.

Keep going, my other self!

No matter what the promise is, no matter what the price, it's always better than having your hopes easily crushed just when you've exhausted everything and are about to grasp them.

Even if one deserves the punishment.

Having realized there was still a chance for things to turn around, Otto in the current timeline braced his hands against the screen, staring intently at the scene unfolding before him.

"No interest. You may not understand, but for me, all wealth is readily available."

"Then what do you want?" Otto asked, his head bowed.

"Then write a letter," Chen Li suddenly had a brilliant idea.

"Letter?"

"That's right, so that when I meet Otto again, I can make Otto believe that I have severed time and space, and give him a letter that will make him despair."

"Why?" If this is the price, Otto doesn't care.

But Otto wants to understand it as your personal logic, and use that to judge whether the other person's words are credible or not.

"Because, because, because... I really want to see your expression when I tell you, when you're heartbroken, ' Otto, even though you don't have Kallen, you still have me!'" Chen Li said excitedly.

"..."

Is this person a demon?

Sirin, who was sitting on the grass covered with countless Cecilia Flowers, holding the still-closed Cecilia, was completely distraught after hearing Chen Li and Otto's conversation.

Cecilia had completely erased the impression of Chen Li as gentle, kind, considerate, and funny in the illusion, leaving only the impression that "this person should never be messed with."

"...Okay." Otto readily accepted the olive branch offered by Chen Li.

Because he had no other choice.

Otto will suffer, and Otto will bear the blame.

Everything was for the purpose of Resurrection Card.

Otto believes that his past or future self would also choose to forgive him if he knew the truth.

Otto then slammed the Divine Fire Sacred Judgment, formed from the Imaginary Power and on the paper Chen Li handed him, which was about to disintegrate. This created a series of secret texts that only Otto himself could understand.

"How is it, Your Queen? Are you happier now?" After finishing all this, Chen Li put away the letter and turned to look at Sirin.

Anyway, Chen Li is very happy now. Chen Li thinks Sirin can be happy too.

Sirin was too exhausted to answer Chen Li, but the way Sirin looked at Chen Li made Chen Li feel a little strange.

"Now it's time for you to leave, and it's also time for me to sever the connection between the Previous Civilization and the Current Civilization. It's also time for me to edit this [historical fragment] of the Second Honkai."

"Although we haven't known each other for long, after seeing what happened to you, Sirin, at the Tower of Babylon Tower, it's really hard to say something like, 'Your Queen, if you want to live, you need to die first.'" Chen Li shrugged helplessly.

It's all Chen Li's fault for being greedy for the term "Second Honkai" and insisting on seeing Sirin's experiences before that.

It's all Sirin's fault for throwing all her experiences into that Dream Bubble.

Tsk tsk, Chen Li could hardly imagine how Sirin felt after being tortured day and night, watching her companions die one by one, and then having to be led by the experimental staff to bury her companions' bodies in the snow.

Otto, you're a fucking genius!

Making you despair twice is far too lenient!

I'll have to give you even more work!

Otto's body, which appeared before Chen Li because of the Joy Dice, slowly disappeared, and Chen Li seemed to see the path Otto had taken.

History and time are thus revealed.

Chen Li also Judgment of All Things had transformed into two single-edged swords, together, and they reverted to being scissors.

[Bite!]

The crisp sound echoed across the snow-covered plains, bringing the world to a moment of silence!

Time and space seemed to be torn apart at that moment.

Chapter 144 creates Parallel World in the name of "What If" and "fiction"!

Judgment of All Things, vanished in a single thought, yet eternal in a single thought.

Although the process was somewhat arduous (but extremely enjoyable), with Otto's selfless help, Chen Li also witnessed history and time.

The Joy Dice are a great thing!

It needs to be used more often.

We really should enjoy life while we can!

Of course, I'm not thinking about these kinds of nonsense right now.

Chen Li is currently in a Nihility, resting his chin on one hand and holding scissors in the other, watching the film reels playing different images in front of him.

Although he didn't quite understand why the River of Time wasn't a single river, when the bottom of Chen Li's scissors touched a certain segment of the film, Chen Li was indeed clearly aware of what he was doing and what the consequences would be.

Chen Li ran his hand over the film and saw the anchor points he had left in this world called the Honkai world.

First, what comes into view is naturally the time when Chen Li first appeared during the Second Honkai War. However, Chen Li rewinds a long time before seeing his first true "appearance" 50,000 years ago.

After Chen Li disappeared, things proceeded as Chen Li had imagined.

With Chen Li gone, the Moth Chasing Flames, who only obeyed Chen Li's orders, and the United Nations high-ranking officials naturally no longer needed to obey Chen Li's orders.

This was a loophole deliberately left by Chen Li.

Those high-ranking officials were simply carrying out the civilization fiction project set up by Chen Li, and did nothing else.

Fortunately, Chen Li's relationship with Mebius, Alice, and Vervier is still shallow, which is within the normal range in the eyes of these high-level people, so these people were not affected.

Of course, it could also be because Elysia and the others are indeed a bit more capable in combat, plus these higher-ups still harbor lingering fears about Chen Li's existence...

Although Chen Li left two Miraculous Item for the Previous Civilization, the Miraculous Item he left for Mobius was even more significant, theoretically capable of changing the world.

However, the reason why the Previous Civilization Destruction in the same orderly manner as in the original story was because although the higher-ups did not dare to do anything to those who had contact with Chen Li, they subconsciously ignored them.

Mobius's Miraculous Item were rather unique. Although they could create Miracles in Mobius's hands, Mobius was powerless to do so without sufficient experimental funding.

The existence of these Miraculous Item allowed Mobius to advance further, but these higher-ups also hindered Mobius further. With one increasing and the other decreasing, coupled with the Herrscher of the End, the ultimate balance-maker, and the 50,000-year gap in time, the existence of these Miraculous Item was practically negligible.

Mobius's Miraculous Item require extensive research and support; highly specialized Miraculous Item are indeed easily hampered by research.

"Hey, these damn high-ranking officials are a bunch of damn geniuses!" Chen Li was amused and annoyed after reading through the initial history.

Chen Li wasn't looking to relive the process of the Previous Civilization's fight against the Herrscher, but rather to examine the gift he left for this world through the film reels.

Those were weapons with special attributes, personally crafted by Chen Li and left behind in the Previous Civilization. They had endured war and trials and tribulations, and had been successfully passed down from 50,000 years ago to the present day.

Chen Li was checking their tracks one by one.

Chen Li can view the past for free in this Nihility, but he has to pay to view the future.

Perhaps it's because the past cannot be changed, and the future is unknowable.

And the fee charged... is, of course, Starstones.

After reluctantly spending 300 stars Chen Li meticulously recorded the remaining items and traces of the products of his numerous past plans.

They are just waiting to be taken back one by one in the future.
