Of course, they knew Honkai existed.

After thinking it over.

Kiana's Mother still could not rest easy about Kiana, so she planned to set off immediately and go to her side.

Kiana's father, however, could not simply leave whenever he wanted. Still, he called the old man, and only after receiving his assurance did they finally relax.

If all it told you was that Kiana died and everyone went to heaven together, while Kiana lived and everyone lived together.

That would have been nothing.

But the crucial point was...

The heavenly projection also told you.

The better Kiana was treated, the greater the possibility that she would eventually reclaim herself.

It was not that if Kiana stayed alive, everyone could simply skip class when the End arrived. It still depended on whether the whole world treated her well enough.

There was nothing more to say.

Even their own biological grandsons probably would not be as important as her.

Who would dare touch her?

For all anyone knew, if you sent an assassin after her, the assassin might kill you on the spot instead.

That was how terrifying it was!

To be fair.

The images projected by the heavenly screen were already incredible.

The important thing was not what it projected, but the nature of its contents.

There were surely still many people who were skeptical, and many more who did not believe it.

Some even thought it was fake, fake, all fake.

Others thought, I am just watching for fun. What does this have to do with me?

But as long as it could not be completely confirmed.

Then.

It was better to believe it existed than believe it did not.

No one dared gamble on it.

Were you not afraid of dying?

Then what about your family? Your relatives and friends?

If you had nothing at all.

Then congratulations.

Every country and every high-ranking official, without prior agreement, declared that they would start keeping an eye on people like that!

They feared those people might take revenge on society.

After all.

What if they really got Kiana killed?

Then everyone would be finished together.

Would that not mean one person had buried the entire world?

For people seeking revenge against society, was there an easier method than this?

However.

The more they thought about it.

The more they wore masks of pain.

Suddenly having an old Buddha sitting above their heads.

Who the hell could get used to that?

"Kiana... Kiana..."

Flame-Chasing Moth's First Research Institute.

Bianca suddenly muttered that name and tilted her head, seemingly pondering something.

Mobius looked at her. "What is it? Do you know her?"

"I remember something... Oh, right. She seemed to be the daughter of my mother's distant cousin... which means she is my distant cousin?"

"Tell me everything!" Mobius's eyes immediately lit up, staring at Bianca so intensely that she felt immense pressure.

"My distant cousin... I think that really was her name..." Bianca thought for a moment before finally confirming it.

"Can you contact her?"

Mobius smiled brilliantly.

Because she wanted to invite Kiana to visit her research institute. If Kiana did not mind, she could sit around here for a while and follow up on some experiments too~

She did not mind.

As for the extremely troublesome trait Kiana possessed.

It was not that Mobius did not care. She simply saw things very clearly.

Kiana was not fragile glass.

Under normal circumstances, how could she so easily sense the world's malice?

As long as she did not die and stayed in a good mood, they could interact with her however they normally would.

Mobius generally sought the consent of her test subjects before conducting experiments.

So she would ask Kiana whether she was willing to help.

If Kiana was willing, there was no need to consider whether it would taint her or not.

Right?!

She was not some child.

She knew very well what she was doing.

Rather than placing her under soft house arrest, it would be better to let her grow more.

Mobius did not believe that someone with an immature mentality could defeat the so-called Herrscher personality merely by being constantly pampered.

Perhaps it was precisely because she had always been a flower in a greenhouse that her will would become incomparably fragile later on.

Not to mention that the Vup projected by the heavenly screen had also drawn upon relevant historical records.

Official history was history, and unofficial history was history too.

Sometimes official history could be absurdly wrong, while unofficial history might instead be correct.

Therefore, her attitude was more that it could be analyzed and somewhat believed, but not trusted completely.

In fact, many national leaders, scholars, think tanks, and so on.

Gradually came to realize it.

They shared the same line of thought.

But as for the specifics, they would definitely have to make contact gradually.

So, over the next few days.

Kiana got some time off.

The school voluntarily announced that it would undergo renovations and classes would be suspended for the time being.

She could only stay at home.

Although she truly was not restricted from going out.

Whether it was the neighbors around her villa or the shops and street vendors whenever she went out for a stroll.

The vast majority.

Had openly been replaced with new faces.

And every one of them was actually a comrade from Shenzhou's Security Bureau working part-time. They were not monitoring her, merely protecting her.

It was somewhat like The Truman Show.

However.

This was actually within Kiana's expectations.

They had even worried whether she would find it annoying.

But she merely shook her head, gentle and understanding.

She looked very sensible.

This also made quite a few people behind the scenes nod slightly, feeling a little more relieved.

Through television and the news, she could learn that the country was striving to provide more jobs for unemployed people, while also trying to help more single people find someone they liked.

People with no elderly parents above them and no young children below them were especially noted.

Officials practically went door to door, conducting surveys and inspections, asking after their well-being.

But even so!

The entire internet was still dominated by the heavenly projection from several days ago.

Many people analyzed it, guessed, and put forward their own views. More and more analyses emerged.

Some people had even genuinely hit the mark.

That made Kiana feel a little impressed.

Honestly.

Over the past few days, she had neither edited videos nor wandered around. Instead, she spent most of her time at home.

Either lying around or playing games.

Or watching television, novels, manga, and such...

Mobius had Bianca invite her, but the call was intercepted before it even reached Kiana.

Infuriated, Mobius grabbed a blade and stormed straight to the upper echelons of the Flame-Chasing Moth.

Only after the higher-ups coordinated things did she manage to make an appointment with Kiana.

Otherwise, she would have died before even setting out, and she would have cursed her lungs out.

PS1: Here is the second update. More tomorrow, keep up the good work~~

Meeting Kosma, yay!

To be fair.

Indeed!

The most urgent task now was actually to let Kiana calm down on her own.

At least in the eyes of the higher-ups.

Kiana had to accept the fact that she would become the Herrscher of the End in the future.

She also had to accept her identity as the savior.

Putting all of this on a little girl was indeed too much. But the higher-ups themselves had no choice.

They were restraining themselves from contacting Kiana during this period.

Those protecting her were also doing their utmost not to disturb her.

Sometimes.

After gaining power, how one used it depended on oneself. Some became Spider-Man, while others became Homelander.

Although judging from both the past and the present, it was clear that Kiana's mentality was actually quite good.
