Humans probably can't even maintain their current lifestyle!

Moreover, even if they continue to drag things out, Rin will eventually die from Honkai Energy...

"I think we should discuss this with Sakura!"

In the end, Ling Xi no longer rejected Mobius's proposal. After all... humanity must now preserve its power to carry out Mobius's final plan!

"No need to discuss it anymore, I agree..."

At this moment, Sakura also walked in, silently staring at Ling Xi, and said, "Ling Xi, you once told me about Ling's future, and I... am willing to believe you. I think... Ling should believe you too."

"I'm sorry, I..."

Ling Xi looked at Ying with some guilt.

"Hehe, it's alright, Ling Xi!"

Sakura smiled and shook her head, saying, "You've done very well. Now... let me see Rin off on her final journey!"

"Cherry..."

Seeing Sakura's resolute decision, Ling Xi felt immense self-reproach. She hadn't expected that in the end she still wouldn't have been able to protect Rin. Under the absolute crushing power of the Honkai, under the control of the gods, humanity...

In the end, there was nothing that could be done!

In that instant, a thought arose in Ling Xi's mind, a thought that... had been asked of Mobius before: why is God God...

Before long, Rin was transferred to the Hall of the Elysian Realm. Then, with the help of Mobius and May, and with Klein's assistance in transferring her consciousness, Rin's consciousness was successfully and completely transferred to the Elysian Realm!

At last...

Sakura Katana in hand, prepares to personally send her younger sister on her final journey...

How similar this scene was to Ling Xi's eyes...

Humans offered young girls to the gods in hopes of bringing rain, but it was her sister who ended the girl's life...

What is the difference between modern humans, who pride themselves on having mastered technology and entered the civilized era, and those ignorant humans who kill young girls in order to pray for rain?

Rin was killed to pray for rain!

Killing Rin was to stop the Honkai Energy from increasing, ultimately...

Humans are all praying to the gods, playing a game under the rules of the gods, humans...

It's just a bug!

"Stop!"

Ling Xi blocked the falling Katana from Sakura!

"Ling Xi?"

When Ling Xi suddenly stopped Ying, almost everyone in the room was very surprised. They had clearly agreed on something, so why did this happen...?

"Heh, Ling Xi..."

Only Elysia showed a knowing smile. It seems that no matter how many times, Ling Xi's choice is always the same...

"Ling Xi? What are you trying to say?"

Mobius knew about Ling Xi and Ling's relationship, but at this moment, Mobius still had some doubts.

"Doctor ..."

Ling Xi looked at Ling's body and gently shook her head, "It's no longer necessary!"

"Doctor, has the Elysian Realm suddenly been invaded?"

Suddenly, Klein had been monitoring the situation in the Elysian Realm, issued a warning. "This is bad! It's not just Elysian Realm; our base's firewall is also under attack. It is expected to fail in one minute!"

"Why..."

Mobius sighed and said, "Well, it seems there's no need for that after all. The Twelfth Herrscher... have already been born!"

Then, Mobius shouted sternly, "Everyone, proceed according to the original plan!"

"Yes, Doctor!"

Instantly, the entire Flame-Chasing Moths began to counter the Twelfth Herrscher's plan, and so on...

The Twelfth Honkai War has officially begun!

Chapter 461: The Story of Bell and the Eldest Sister Monster!

As Rin's consciousness was transferred to the Elysian Realm, the Twelfth Herrscher were officially born!

However, because Mobius and Mebius were prepared, the Twelfth Herrscher did not directly control the human network and then send mushrooms to humanity as they did in the original story...

This time, targeting the characteristics of the Twelfth Herrscher, Mobius opted to disconnect the network entirely, turning the entire base's network into a local area network, and reverting all important operations to mechanical processes. After all...

Even the most skilled hacker can't possibly come and attack me through the internet, right?

Thus, with humanity having made prior preparations, the Twelfth Herrscher caused almost no disturbance, since their true forms were trapped in the Elysian Realm!

However, Rin's consciousness ultimately could not resist the erosion of the Will of Honkai and was completely transformed into Twelfth Herrscher!

At this point, although people could kill the Twelfth Herrscher, who could do so against Ling Xi and Sakura's opposition?

In the end, it was Mei who took out the Black Box and sealed the Twelfth Herrscher inside Black Box, while also entrusting the Black Box to Sakura for safekeeping...

Thus, the Twelfth Herrscher incident came to an end. Apart from those who died in the early stages due to Honkai Energy, humanity suffered no losses in the face of the Twelfth Herrscher. The only regret was that Elysian Realm was invaded by a virus.

However, thanks to the efforts of Klein and Prometheus, the virus left behind by the Twelfth Herrscher was completely eradicated!

One week later...

"Cherry..."

Ling Xi successfully found Ying on the wall outside the base; she was sitting there in a daze.

"Ling Xi?"

Upon hearing Ling Xi's voice, Ying immediately turned around and smiled, "Why are you here?"

"Just came to see you."

Ling Xi also jumped up and sat down next to Ying, saying, "Why are you here alone again?"

"I just want to... see the outside world."

Sakura turned her head away and silently looked at the broken walls and ruins in the distance. Although the intensity of Honkai Energy in the world has decreased, after such a wave of destruction, there is basically no normal life left in the outside world!

The rest are basically Dishi and Honkai Beast!

"Why..."

Looking at Sakura, Ling Xi sighed helplessly. He naturally knew why Sakura had been preferring to stay alone lately, because...

The person who could keep her company is gone. Although Rin is still alive in a strict sense, she cannot be released until the influence of the Will of Honkai is weakened, since she is now the Twelfth Herrscher!

In short, Rin's current situation is very complicated. Even Aponia and Klein cannot affect Rin's mind, so...

We can only leave it to time to resolve, until the person who opens the box appears in the future!

"I'm sorry, Sakura, Rin..."

Thinking of this, Ling Xi still felt somewhat guilty. Although she had made preparations in advance, humans are still humans after all. Faced with the influence of the Will of Honkai, even if she tried her best, she could not change much!

As Aponia said, what fate foresees will come true, no matter what it is now!

"I told you, this isn't Ling Xi's fault."

Sakura smiled gently and shook her head, saying, "After all, I've already prepared myself to accept Rin's fate. Besides... Ling Xi, didn't you say that we'll meet again in the future? At most... I'll just go to the future and wait for Rin."

"Yes, definitely... it will!"

Ling Xi didn't say anything more...

However, having lived with Sakura and Rin for over two years, I've long been accustomed to Rin's constant chatter and pestering. Now that it's suddenly so quiet, I'm really not used to it...

Fortunately, Sakura did not choose to commit suicide this time because of Rin's disappearance, which is the biggest gain!

After all, Sakura and Rin might meet again in the future, although...

"Sakura, let me tell you a story."

Thinking of this, Ling Xi also decided to tell Ying some things about the future. After all, some details of the Previous Era had already been changed, so the future might also be affected. Therefore...

Ling Xi hoped that by telling Ying some things about the future, she could improve Ying's mood!

"Story?"

Sakura looked at Ling Xi with some curiosity, nodded and smiled, "Okay, I like to hear Ling Xi's stories."

"Ah, the story goes like this: In the Far East, there is a village called Yae Village, and in that village lives a shrine maiden named Yae Sakura..."

So, Ling Xi slowly began to tell Sakura the story of Sakura's reminiscences, and Sakura listened very attentively. Especially when she heard about Higanbana, Sakura already understood what Ling Xi was talking about, although...

Sakura knows she still doesn't know Ling Xi's true identity, but she has never doubted what Ling Xi has said, so...

Is this the ending for Suzumiya...?

Finally, when Sakura heard her younger sister call someone else named Yae Sakura sister, she was still slightly annoyed, after all... that was her younger sister!

However, Sakura couldn't bring herself to hate the girl named Yae Sakura, because her fate was even more tragic than her own!

"Thank you for your story, Ling Xi."

As the story ended, Sakura smiled, as if she had breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I think... the future shouldn't be too bad."

"Yes!"

Ling Xi also laughed and said, "So, Sakura, you need to cheer up. After all, if you want to see Rin again, you have to live to see her again."

"Um!"

Sakura nodded seriously, but then asked, "But this time, Rin shouldn't act like she's pretending, right? After all, I plan to keep Rin by my side all the time."

"It's unlikely."

Ling Xi nodded and said, "Our preparations for this Project Fireseed are very thorough. We can place the Black Box in the lowest storage room to ensure it won't fall out again. And after 50,000 years, the influence of the Will of Honkai will be minimized, and then..."

"I think that under the influence of Aponia and Klein, Rin should be able to regain her senses, but..."

At this point, Ling Xi still reminded her, "Bell will probably not have any memories of the past by then. After all, 50,000 years is enough time for humans to forget everything!"

"It's okay, we'll..."

Sakura smiled slightly and said, "Can't I just have Rin call me 'older sister' again? Or... calling me 'big sister' is fine too!"

Ling Xi: "..." Good grief, are you jealous of Yae Sakura?

"Ling Xi ..."

At this moment, Sakura seemed to be in a very good mood. She gently hugged Ling Xi's arm and said with a smile, "Let's go back."

"Ha, good!"

Ling Xi had no objection to this, and gently took Ying's hand as the two returned to the underground base together...

Chapter 462: Dr. Doctor Mobius Wants to Kill a God?

After the Twelfth Herrscher were sealed away, humanity relied on the power to Corrosion Herrscher' cores, and electronic technology developed rapidly, with supercomputers even surpassing quantum computing power in speed!

Therefore, with this computing power, humans can create parallel worlds in computers, thereby finding a way to defeat the Honkai!

Ultimately, through the research of May and Mobius, humanity finally found a method with a 1% chance of defeating the Honkai from fourteen million simulations, which is... the method to access the Imaginary Tree!

However, to come into contact with the Imaginary Tree is something no human being can accomplish...

"So, defeating the Honkai is almost impossible, right?"

That day, Mobius summoned Ling Xi again, but this time it wasn't a private chat between the two of them; instead, Mei was also there!

"You could say that."

Mobius nodded slightly and said, "The power of the Imaginary Tree is not something that a human being can withstand, let alone... we haven't found a reliable way to access the Imaginary Tree yet."
