Killing Me Is Humanity's Only Chance!
Soon after, with Eden's help, Elysia completed her final outfit. Tonight... she would dress up and become the brightest star!
Chapter 464: With the True Self's Inscription, the Thirteenth Herrscher!
The banquet proceeded as scheduled, and everyone attended in formal attire as agreed!
Of course, Elysia was the most dazzling person in the venue, because she was wearing the wedding dress, or rather... gown, that she had prepared for herself!
"Elysia, you..."
Looking at the dazzling Elysia, Ling Xi was speechless with surprise, because...
Elysia is truly beautiful, like the brightest star in the sky, completely overshadowing everyone else, and...
Isn't this the wedding dress Elysia mentioned? Why is she wearing it? But...
So beautiful!
"Hehe, Ling Xi, how do I look? Am I pretty?"
Seeing Ling Xi's somewhat dazed expression, Elysia felt very satisfied, and all her preparations for tonight had not been in vain!
"Yes, it looks good."
Ling Xi smiled, without using too many words of praise, because those two words were her most direct feeling!
Elysia usually appears lively, charming, and energetic, but tonight Elysia...
It is noble, holy, and... perfect!
If I had to use one word to describe her, it would be... Elysia!
Because there are no words left to describe Elysia!
"Ling Xi... try this, I made it myself."
Elysia brought Ling Xi a pastry and said with a smile, "You always say you want to eat my cooking, tonight... I'll make it happen!"
"What's this?"
Ling Xi took the pastry from Elysia's hand and glanced at it curiously!
"Hmm, I won't tell you!"
Elysia winked mischievously and said with a smile, "Try it."
"Ah... good!"
Ling Xi didn't ask any further questions, and simply put it in her mouth and took a bite...
Immediately, Ling Xi felt a familiar taste, but... this was definitely the first time she had ever tasted it!
"How is it? Is it delicious?"
Elysia asked with a smile!
"Mmm, delicious!"
Ling Xi devoured the rest of the pastries in one bite, nodding and saying, "This is the first time I've ever had such delicious pastries. Elysia, what are they made of?"
"Don't ask, you'll be disappointed."
Elysia shook her head and smiled, "After all, the raw materials for this kind of pastry are extinct, so it's impossible to eat it even in the future. Tonight's... is the last one!"
Ling Xi: "..." Okay, I'm definitely going to be disappointed...
As the banquet progressed, everyone couldn't help but relax. Although the apocalyptic war was approaching, but...
At least for this moment, I can relax a little...
Elysia stayed almost the entire time around Ling Xi. Seele wanted to join in the fun, but she was stopped by Aponia and Eden!
"Ling Xi, how about we go for a walk?"
During the dinner, Elysia suddenly grabbed Ling Xi, wanting to go out for a walk!
"What? Did you eat too much and need to digest?"
Ling Xi couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"Hey, wanna go?"
Elysia simply smiled and didn't answer!
"Go!"
Although he didn't know why Elysia wanted to go out for a stroll, how could Ling Xi refuse his wife's request? After saying goodbye to Mobius, he decisively left with Elysia...
"Elysia, what are you Elysian Realm?"
Before long, Elysia led Ling Xi to the main hall of the Elysian Realm, which is one of the most central areas of the entire underground base!
"Hehe, of course I want to keep my current appearance!"
Elysia laughed happily, "After all, I look my best tonight, and of course I want to stay this beautiful forever!"
Ling Xi "..."
"Can't you wear it anytime?"
Ling Xi smiled helplessly, "Besides, when we get to the future, I'll buy you a hundred wedding dresses so you can wear a different one every day!"
"Pshaw, no way, that's so boring."
Elysia led Ling Xi to the entrance of the Elysian Realm, then reached out her hand to begin the connection...
"Ling Xi, do you think... humanity really can't defeat the Finality?"
While synchronizing her memories, Elysia chatted with Ling Xi.
"At least in my opinion, it's unlikely."
Ling Xi shook her head slightly and smiled, "After all, I've already told you about my background. Do you really think what I said about the future is false?"
"Hmm... that makes sense."
Elysia nodded thoughtfully and smiled, "After all, if the Finality really that easy to defeat, we wouldn't be struggling to find a parallel world that could defeat the Finality, but..."
Elysia looked at Ling Xi with a smile and said, "I think the success rate of Mobius and Mei's plan is quite high. Are you sure you don't want to participate?"
"I told you, it won't happen."
Ling Xi shook her head. "After all, you know about my agreement with Him. If... if I break the agreement, then He will take back the deal with me. Moreover... I can't guarantee whether the Project Fireseed can proceed smoothly in the future!"
"Yeah..."
Elysia didn't seem surprised by Ling Xi's answer, and smiled, "Then... what if... He breaks the agreement first?"
"Huh?"
Ling Xi looked at Elysia with some confusion!
"Hehe..."
Elysia smiled slightly and said, "Ling Xi, you... should know who I am, right?"
"Huh?"
Ling Xi was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, "Elysia... what are you talking about? You are Elysia, my wife, who else could you be?"
"Hmm, you're really being naughty..."
Elysia poked Ling Xi's face with her finger and laughed, "Ling Xi, you're lying to me again. After all, I know very well who you are, so... you should have known my identity long ago, but... you're just afraid to accept it, right?"
"Elysia ..."
Ling Xi immediately wanted to say something; he was a little flustered. Could it be... really...?
"Ling Xi ..."
Elysia shook her head, but still maintained her smile, and whispered, "I know more than you do, because my power grants me the ability to never forget you, so..."
Elysia gently hugged Ling Xi and said happily, "I know you... better than you know yourself!"
"Elysia ..."
Ling Xi simply stared silently at Elysia, unable to utter a single word. Therefore, whether it was the clues he had previously known, Aponia's information, or... Elysia's words now, they all undeniably pointed to one fact...
"Ling Xi ..."
After the memory synchronization was complete, Elysia released Ling Xi's hand, took two steps back, and smiled, "Well then, let me reintroduce you. I am the second of the Flame-Chasers, and my other identity is..."
Elysia extended her right hand, unfolding a core formed from pink petals, and smiled, "The Thirteenth Herrscher, Elysia!"
Chapter 465: Killing me is humanity's only chance!
Following Elysia's words, Ling Xi simply looked at her silently, seemingly wanting to say something, but when the words reached her lips, she felt speechless...
"Judging from your expression, you clearly already guessed my identity, didn't you?"
Elysia returned to Ling Xi's side, took her hand, and led her outside, smiling, "After all, you're a time traveler who knows about the future, so you'll understand my identity..."
Elysia blinked and asked softly, "You might not be sure, but you've definitely had a guess, right?"
"Elysia ..."
Ling Xi calmly asked, "Are you Herrscher now?"
"Probably."
Elysia smiled and said, "After all, I can use my powers now, but... I can't tell you, because my powers cannot be known to others, unless..."
Elysia hugged Ling Xi, her lips close to Ling Xi's, and whispered with a laugh, "You took away my power..."
Seeing that Elysia wouldn't tell him about her powers, Ling Xi didn't press her for details, because he believed that Elysia must have a reason for doing so!
"So Elysia, what are you trying to tell me by telling me this now?"
Compared to the powers of the Thirteenth Herrscher, Ling Xi was more concerned about Elysia's situation, since Elysia obviously wouldn't suddenly tell her about this without any reason!
"Uh-huh..."
Elysia nodded slightly and smiled, "Ling Xi, you should know very well that with humanity's current strength, facing the Finality is simply suicide. After all, Aponia and Su have observed so many parallel worlds, and I've experienced them many times myself, but..."
"Humanity has never won, because the power of the Finality surpasses the sum of all power in our parallel worlds. In other words..."
Elysia spread her hands and laughed, "Even if we integrate the power of this parallel world, we still can't surpass the Finality. In battles of this level, skills and tactics don't matter. The only factor in victory or defeat is the upper limit of energy!"
"That's true..."
Ling Xi. The Finality... Although she occasionally had thoughts about it, she was also very clear that defeating the Finality was basically impossible, at least... in the Previous Era!
"But I found a way."
Elysia smiled slightly and said, "Ling Xi, you should possess three cores from outside the world, right?"
"Yes..."
Ling Xi didn't hide anything. He silently opened his right hand and took out his Lightning Herrscher Core Wind Herrscher Core, which he obtained from Sirin. As for Kiana's Flame Herrscher Core, it has now become the Skyfire Judgement, while his own Flame Herrscher Core has always been inside his body!
However, Ling Xi only has these three cores now, because the other cores have either become Divine Key or are in the hands of the Doctor.
"This is our chance of winning!"
Elysia smiled slightly, "In a certain cycle, our Dr. Mobius calculated and concluded that if humanity possessed twice the number of Herrscher Core, the total energy would exceed that of the Finality. This is humanity's only chance of victory, but..."
"There are strict rules and restrictions between parallel worlds, so theoretically speaking, the Herrscher Core in other parallel worlds cannot come to another parallel world. Therefore, the power of humanity has never been able to surpass the Finality, which is why the Finality absolutely invincible!"
Is that so?
Hearing Elysia's answer, Ling Xi seemed somewhat surprised, and also curious. Since the cores of other parallel worlds couldn't be brought into this one, how could her own core...?
"Um?"
Suddenly, Ling Xi thought of a possibility: the core of another parallel world...
However, what Sirin Kiana gave were not the cores of other parallel worlds, but... the cores of the future!
In other words, he obtained the Herrscher Core in this world, which is why he was not restricted by the rules!
"It seems you already guessed it."
Elysia laughed again, "That's right, just as you thought. This was one of our original plans. Although you won't remember, three cores are the best we can do. If we had any more, spacetime would become unstable, and time in our world would be completely chaotic!"
