Someday, Let's Visit Our Hometown Together to See the Cherry Blossoms!

After his conversation with May, Mobius returned to his laboratory, but his mind remained unsettled for a long time. He had to admit, May's ideas and plans were incredibly bold; even in his arrogance, he had never considered something so outrageous. But...

Mei really does have this idea!

Seizing divine power and making humanity its own gods— Mobius was indeed somewhat tempted!

Although she knew the success rate of this plan was almost zero, but...

Since humanity is destined to fail anyway, why not take a desperate gamble?

However, the biggest problem with this plan is...

First, you must see Him.

However, to date, the only person who has ever come into contact with Him is Ling Xi!

Moreover, Ling Xi can only see Ling Xi when He wants her to, since humanity currently does not have a way to directly travel to the location of the Will of Honkai!

According to Mei, these four forces exist in this chaotic world, and Honkai is just one of them, belonging to the forces derived from imaginary numbers, so...

If a direct link to the power of imaginary numbers could be established, humanity would reap indescribable benefits, at least...

From now on, we won't have to act according to the whims of the Honkai anymore!

Of course, Mobius was also well aware that even if humanity ultimately succeeded, the disappearance of his Previous Era would be irreversible, so...

Even if we ultimately defeat Him, it will only leave hope for the future!

Finally, there's one more problem: the only person capable of executing this plan is probably Ling Xi, but...

Ling Xi reached an agreement with Him because of Seele, and Mobius was also well aware that Ling Xi had always safely navigated the Previous Era before leading everyone to the new civilization era...

Therefore, whether Ling Xi is willing to accept this plan with a probability that is infinitely close to zero is truly an unknown.

After all, as long as the Project Fireseed is followed, the Hibernation Pod are enough for Ling Xi to take some people to the new civilization era. So, is it really necessary to give up a safe option for a vague goal?

Mobius was genuinely unsure about this, but Mobius would never try to persuade Ling Xi, after all...

She knew very well that killing a god was definitely not a wise choice!

"Hello, Ling Xi..."

On the other side, Aponia also came to find Ling Xi.

"Hmm? Aponia, what's up?"

Ling Xi smiled at Aponia and asked her what her purpose was.

"You should know who the next Herrscher is, right?"

Aponia silently looked at Ling Xi and said what she wanted to say.

"Um."

Ling Xi nodded slightly and said, "The Corrosion Herrscher, her powers are only activated upon death, but I will not let her die!"

"I hope so."

Aponia also said quietly, "According to the fate I see, she will die at the hands of the Flame-Chasing Moths soldiers, but with you here, I think the outcome will be different."

"..."

Ling Xi remained silent without answering, after all, Ling's original fate was just like in the comics, to be killed by her own people.

"Ling Xi".

Aponia then spoke again, asking, "Do you know the identity of the Thirteenth Herrscher?"

"Um?"

Ling Xi simply turned to look at Aponia, trying to glean something from her eyes, but unfortunately, Aponia remained unchanged, and it was impossible to find any answers in her expression or gaze.

"Does this have anything to do with what you said, that I would kill Elysia with my own hands?"

However, Ling Xi had already roughly guessed what was going on. After all, back in the game Elysian Realm the Past, she had gleaned something from the snippets of conversation among the various Flame-Chasing Moths, and Aponia had even said that she would personally kill Elysia, so...

The truth is practically on the verge of being revealed!

Even now, Ling Xi doesn't believe she would kill Elysia for any reason!

"Yes..."

Aponia placed her hands on her chest, closed her eyes as if in prayer, and whispered, "Elysia, she is different from everyone else. Her existence seems to have been made for you. In parallel worlds, I have seen countless fates of Elysia, but every time, Elysia makes the same choice!"

"Why..."

Ling Xi just sighed softly, her feelings complicated and she didn't know what to say. God can manipulate the world, because God is God!

"Aponia, besides the world we saw last time, have you found any other clues about me in other parallel worlds?"

Ling Xi decided to ask this question. Ever since she discussed this topic with Mobius and Elysia that day, Ling Xi had been thinking about the reality of the world.

"Have."

Aponia opened her eyes and looked at Ling Xi, saying, "Su and I observed about two hundred parallel worlds. In three of them, we found clues related to you. However... these three worlds all have the same characteristic: they are all related to Elysia. In short..."

Aponia said seriously, "The reason why you don't exist in other parallel worlds may be related to Elysia, but there are no reliable clues as to why this is the case. However, the inference is that you once existed, but then you stopped existing."

"I understand, Aponia, thank you."

Ling Xi didn't say much, only thanked Aponia.

"You're welcome, it's my duty."

Aponia nodded slightly, without saying anything more.

"Aponia, are you planning to join the Project Fireseed?"

Ling Xi asked Aponia another question. Although Ling Xi knew that all the subsequent plans of the Previous Era had basically failed, the Project Fireseed was undoubtedly the best option to bring people from the Previous Era to the post-civilization era.

"I have no idea..."

Aponia shook her head slightly and said, "Project Fireseed is a good project, but I'm not sure whether I'll join it."

"Why?"

Ling Xi looked at Aponia with some confusion. If it was good, why did she refuse?

"Wait for you."

Aponia didn't hide anything and said directly, "If Ling Xi, you join, then I will naturally join as well. But if Ling Xi, you're not here, then there's no need for me to join."

"Hehe, you're obviously overthinking it. I'll definitely join."

Ling Xi smiled without any hesitation. After all, from the very beginning, ever since she learned that this was Previous Era, she had never stopped thinking about joining the Project Fireseed. Now that she had finally come this far, how could she not join?

"Well, I hope so."

Aponia didn't refute this at all, but simply smiled and said, "If you join, then I will naturally accompany you!"

Chapter 449: Let's go see the cherry blossoms in our hometown together in the future!

After talking with Aponia, Ling Xi returned to her room.

"Ling Xi, you're back!"

In his own room, Rin, Sakura, Seele, and others were all there, with Rin still appearing very lively.

"Yeah, that's true, since there's not much to do right now, is there?"

Ling Xi pinched Ling's cheek and then said, "Ling, Seele, you two play by yourselves for now. Ying and I have something to talk about."

"Um?"

Ling's face immediately showed a suspicious expression, and she asked curiously, "You guys, you wouldn't have been thinking about... you know... during the day, would you? Ugh, how shameless... Ahhhhh, it hurts, it hurts, sister, sister, I'm sorry..."

Before Ling could finish speaking, she received a righteous lash on the head from Sakura!

"Stay put and don't go out!"

Sakura glared at Rin before leaving the room with Ling Xi.

Ling Xi: "..." I think you're partly to blame for Rin's retaliatory actions after she becomes Corrosion Herrscher...

"Sakura, you should already know about Rin, right?"

After arriving at another room with Sakura, Ling Xi went straight to the point and brought up the matter with her.

"Um."

Sakura's expression was relatively calm. She nodded and said, "The Doctor and Klein have already told me, and they have also told me how to prevent Rin from becoming Herrscher."

"Why..."

Ling Xi sighed softly and said, "Sakura, if Rin becomes Herrscher, I'm not confident I can turn her back, so... the best way is to let her live well, which is also our only option at the moment."

"I know."

Sakura nodded gently. "Rin is my sister, so no matter what, I will protect her. No one can hurt her."

"I feel much more at ease knowing that you said that."

Ling Xi also smiled. After all, in the original work, the tragedy was caused by the fact that the high-ranking officials of the Previous Era were still around, coupled with humanity's fear of the Herrscher, and Sakura no longer being by Rin's side.

This time, however, the power of the Flame-Chasing Moths had long been firmly in the Doctor's hands. Moreover, among humanity's current high-end combat force, two of the three leaders are his wives, and Kevin, the third, is unlikely to do such a thing. As for the other Fused Warrior...

To be honest, even if you put them all together, they wouldn't be enough to defeat Elysia and Sakura.

Furthermore, this time she will arrange for Sakura to stay by Rin's side at all times, and with Elysia's help, so...

In any case, Ling will absolutely not repeat the same mistake!

Of course, even so, Ling Xi couldn't be completely at ease. After all, He was conscious, and who knew if, in order to advance the plot, the Will of Honkai might replace the Corrosion Herrscher with someone else, or cause the Corrosion Herrscher to be born in another form? In short...

Even if you are confident, you must not be careless!

"Cherry!"

Suddenly, Ling Xi asked, "You'll participate in Project Fireseed, right?"

Sakura naturally knew about the Project Fireseed long ago, and the sisters would certainly be included in the list of Hibernation Pod. Ling Xi's only worry was whether Sakura would change her mind!

"Nature."

Sakura nodded and smiled, "If Ling Xi participates, then I will naturally participate as well."

"Don't worry, I will definitely participate."

Ling Xi pursed her lips, giving the same answer she had given Aponia before, then asked seriously, "Sakura, although I don't know if I should ask this, but..."

Ling Xi asked seriously, "I still want to ask, if Ling's fate is inevitable, will you still go to the future with me?"

"This..."

Sakura hesitated for a moment!

"Cherry!"

Ling Xi gently took Ying's hand and smiled, "I may not be able to guarantee you other things, but I can guarantee you one thing: even if Ling inevitably takes a different path, we will definitely see her again in the future, but the premise is..."

"You have to live to see the future!"

Ling Xi stared intently into Sakura's eyes, still worried that Ling Xi's fate might be arranged by Him. Ling Xi feared that if Rin met that fate, Sakura would suffer the same fate as in the original story—her heart would die, and then she would die too...

Therefore, Ling Xi plans to talk to Ying about this beforehand, at least...

Even if the future is truly unchangeable, Sakura must live on, after all, isn't the future Higokumaru just like Rin?

"I see."

In the end, Sakura obediently nodded and smiled at Ling Xi, "Although I don't know why you said that, Ling Xi, but... I said I... would carry out your orders, any orders, so..."

"Ling Xi, I will wait for you in the future!"

"Okay, that's good..."

Seeing that Ying had agreed, Ling Xi was completely relieved. At least... now he didn't have to worry about his wife dying after his sister's death. To be honest, he was actually quite looking forward to seeing the two little girls tugging at each other's ears in the future!

"Ling Xi ..."
