Chapter 343 Reunion
The environment created by Hua Yongyu Duchen is not complicated, and it is even debatable whether it can be called a fantasy. To be precise, it is just a psychological suggestion that she and her apprentice often use when "asking the mind."
After all...the heart is the most important thing in a person, and it is also the most fragile thing in a person. It is too easy to be contaminated by dust and generate unnecessary emotions and bonds. If these dust accumulates for too long, you will forget your original self. purpose...
"ah……"
Hua sighed, inexplicably thinking of a lot of messy things.
Also, for ordinary humans, life is just a journey of several decades. Even if the physique of the Stigma Awakener is far superior to that of ordinary people, it cannot be compared with the nearly endless lifespan of the fusion warrior.
That's why she needs to create this method to cleanse her heart at all times, abandon all distracting thoughts, just for the only original intention...
However... for the two twenty-year-old girls in front of them, the time they have experienced, the people they have met, and the things they have encountered are too small, and it does not take long to come up with their own stories. Answer it.
Thinking of this, a murmur reached Hua's ears. She raised her eyes and saw that the girl from Kaslana's family was already showing signs of waking up.
"Is this the belief of the Kaslana family..."
Hua was silent for a moment - although he had expected it, this was a bit too soon.
As for Shaniyat…
When Zaihua herself didn't realize it, a bitter smile bloomed on her face.
She quickly shook her head, brushing aside the emotions that were classified as "dust". Seeing that Kallen was already half-awake, she hesitated and took two steps forward, ready to help her up.
"Don't touch her!"
Hua's forward steps stopped abruptly, and a pebble-sized stone flew past her nose. The next moment, a young man with blond hair and blue eyes opened his arms and stood in front of Karen.
"O... Tuo..."
Kallen called softly.
"It's okay...I'm here, it's okay, I'm here."
Otto swallowed hard and nervously repeated a paragraph twice, and then he began to look at the "enemy" in front of him.
When their eyes met, he saw the girl in front of him frowning and whispering something meaningless:
"Huh? You also have his blood on you?"
"What do you mean..."
Otto's Adam's apple rolled, and before he could ask the question, he suddenly found that his body was frozen in place, unable to move, and he couldn't even control the movement of his eyes!
"It's over!"
He didn't know what was going on, but he couldn't make any moves on the battlefield. Wasn't this just letting others slaughter him?
But is this really the case?
It wasn't until he turned his right hand to hold the air aside that Otto realized that it was not the girl in front of him who had fixed his body, but that he had lost control of his body.
"Void Wanzang, what are you going to do!"
The "friendly relationship" with Void Manzo has allowed Otto to gradually let go of part of his hostility and vigilance towards it. Of course, with the huge gap in strength, he can't resist against Void Manzo's behavior no matter how vigilant he is.
Of course he also understood that he had thought about the possibility of Void Manzo invading his body from the beginning, but he did not expect that it would be at this time!
"Hey?"
In response, Void Manzang responded with a strange laugh.
"Okay Otto, just stop talking and leave the rest to me - do you think you can beat her?"
"No, I..."
Otto's words were interrupted by the sound of chains. The next moment, the heavy cross was pulled over by himself, no, by Void Manzo.
"If you want to hurt Karen, just step over my body."
Otto couldn't help but want to cover his face, but unfortunately his body could not move according to his will.
"Otto..."
Kallen weakly tugged on Otto's trousers. She didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just stared at his back blankly.
Her thoughts were still a little confused, and she couldn't raise any strength in her body. What made her even more confused was that Judas, who should have been under her control, actually responded obediently to Otto's call. As the original owner of this weapon, Master, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but she actually felt a vague excitement coming from the core of the God Key.
"Is this what is called...understanding what to protect..."
As for Eleanor, she had actually been awake for a while, but when she saw Otto standing firmly in front of Karen, she bit her lip, closed her eyes again, and pretended to have never woken up.
And Hua... And Hua's frown deepened. She took a deep look at "Otto", took half a step back with her left foot, clenched her left hand behind her waist, spread her right palm out diagonally, and made a long-lost starting position.
The wind whimpered non-stop, unknowingly blowing away the dust that filled the whole sky and earth, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on Hua's body, making it dazzlingly red.
The two of them faced each other, motionless. They obviously didn't give in at all, but neither of them launched an attack.
After a while, Hua let go of his arrogance, and Otto suddenly found that he had regained control of his body, but no matter how he called out to the void Manzo in his heart, he could not get any response.
He hesitated for a moment and took this opportunity to help Karen up, and then he heard the gentle footsteps behind him.
Hua looked past Otto and looked at the two familiar figures behind him. She snorted softly and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute, Hua!"
Kevin took two quick steps and passed Otto, only one step away from Hua, while Su followed up leisurely.
But Hua seemed to have no intention of negotiating with her old friend. She only hesitated for a moment, and then left without looking back.
"bass--"
"That's..."
As a last resort, Kevin took out two pistols from his arms, merged them at the front and back, and immediately turned into a blazing sword of sky fire, with the sword tip piercing deeply into the soil. He didn't know what to say or what to do at this time. There might be more euphemistic ways of expression, but he could only express his attitude in this way for a while -
Friend or foe, choose!
Hua's footsteps indeed stopped, but she didn't turn around for a long time. She didn't know what she was thinking.
"Sage of Heavenly Fire!"
Compared to Hua's silence, Kallen and Otto became extremely excited. The same Heavenly Fire Saint, the same tall body, also stood in front of them, but... he couldn't be Francis Kaslana, and he didn't seem to care much about the two of them, until he heard someone calling him out. After seeing the name of the weapon in his hand, he turned his head slightly and glanced behind him with his peripheral vision.
"Who the hell are you!"
Kallen used all her strength to stand up with Otto's help.
With snow-white hair and aqua blue eyes, there is no doubt that this is also a Kaslana, but...
"I've never seen you in the Kaslana family! Also, why is the Holy Inquisition of Skyfire in your hands!"
"snort!"
Kevin turned his head, not wanting to answer.
Su opened her mouth, hesitating to say something. The situation on the field was suddenly very chaotic. Kevin's mind was filled with Hua, or to be precise, the Mikael who might exist behind her. In the eyes of his descendants, It's full of him, to be precise, it's the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment in his hand.
Of course, there was also an autistic girl lying next to her.
but……
Su's eyes opened a crack and she glanced back at Otto.
When their eyes met, Otto felt guilty for some reason and silently looked away. Su just followed his intuition and glanced at that, then quickly turned his head and followed Kevin in persuading:
"Hua, we don't know what you have experienced since we said goodbye to the moon, but...since you are still alive and you are still standing here unscathed, I think it is still necessary for us to exchange information, isn't it? "
"Yeah?"
Hua slowly turned around, her face looked a little embarrassed, but at least she didn't leave directly.
In fact, even if she wants to leave directly, it is not a bad idea. "There is no doubt that thanks to Shenyin, you will be the most powerful [human being] in the world now, including for a long time to come."
Mebius's smug words were still in her ears. The divine voice gave her infinite possibilities for growth and sealed the biggest risk as a fusion warrior. If it were Kevin in his heyday, she might not be a match yet. After all, the blow that lit up the entire moon couldn't even be received head-on. But that blow ultimately caused irreversible injuries to Kevin. Even with Su assisting him,...
"Kevin, put away your sky fire. Friend or enemy...Kevin, can you still enter the man-made collapse now?"
"able."
Kevin answered without hesitation, but this only caused Hua to shake his head:
"Kevin, you are still the same, and so will your descendants - what's the point of showing off?"
When Hua turned around again, her long hair returned to its normal dark gray color.
Kevin's hand holding the hilt of the sword gradually tightened. When Hua took steps away again, he finally couldn't help but said:
"Hua, you still recognize us, which means that that time Yue Yue used Yu to cross the dust, you..."
"Don't be so sentimental, Kevin. All my feelings for you right now only stop at the two names Kevin and Su."
Hua directly interrupted Kevin's statement. She was right. For her now, the memories retained in Yu Duchen are not so much memories that belong to her in the past, but rather belong to a man named "Hua" girl's memory.
What does Hua's memory have to do with Chi Yuan?
This is indeed the case, but the fact does not mean that Kevin can accept it:
"What about the Fire Chasing Moth? In your eyes now, what does the Fire Chasing Moth count? What does everything we have fought for count?"
"You should ask the past me this question, if you can meet her."
Hua turned his face sideways, seemingly answering Kevin's words, but in fact he glanced at Otto who was confused.
Kevin opened his mouth, not knowing what to say at all.
"Are there any questions? If not... I'm going back to Taixu Mountain. Did you create the destiny? Take care of them, and next time you will use the power of Honkai so casually..."
Kevin took a step forward and wanted to say something. Su grabbed him, then took a step forward and said in a gentler manner:
"Hua, we don't mean to offend, but you should understand that the reason why we are standing here is not just because of you. By the way, not long ago, we also discovered a strange creature suspected to be created by Mebius. It’s not necessary to get to the bottom of it, but if you’d like, just answer a few simple questions for us…three! Just three questions, okay?”
Before Hua's heels hit the ground, he tapped his toes on the ground instead. After hesitating for a moment, he stepped back.
She did not give a clear response, but her attitude was self-evident.
"In that case, I will ask directly - the first question, Hua, Mobius, is she still alive?"
"..."
Hua took a deep breath and paused for a long time, as if they were not communicating face to face... face to face, but were talking on the phone as before. As a result, there was a problem with the line of one party, and it was not until a delay that Hua's answer was heard:
"Mobius...she was alive, now, I don't know."
Su turned his head sharply the moment he opened his eyes, and Kevin did the same. The two looked at each other for a moment, and both showed a clear look in their eyes - Hua could not say meaningless nonsense, "she was alive", it was definitely not that she was alive in the last era, but after the world entered reincarnation.
"As expected... did he show mercy to a single individual, or to everyone?"
Su tilted his head and did not ask this overly direct question, because he had a more important doubt:
"Don't know? Hua, what happened to you afterwards?"
This time, Hua's answer came very quickly and without mercy:
"Is that your second question?"
Su pursed his lips, knowing that he had wasted an opportunity. Then, according to their previous agreement, there was only one last question left.
What happened after the Battle of the End?
How many of the other heroes survived?
Why were you willing to return to the team? And why did you still take the initiative to implement the "Spark Plan" formulated by Mei?
If you have to choose between the Fire Moth and Mikael, which side would you choose?
There are countless questions in my heart, but there is only one chance, and...it is not certain whether Hua will give an answer.
If it was someone else, such as Mobius, Su might still be able to rely on his mental power to try to pry into the heart of his former comrade, but Hua, as the eighth God Key and the only holder of the Consciousness Key that Su had not recovered in time, was obviously immune to the invasion of mental power.
So, what question to choose, he could only rely on Su's own intuition.
After thinking about it, he simply asked in the most direct way:
"Hua, Mikael, is he still alive?"
Hua was disconnected again. She didn't seem to expect Su to ask this question at all... No, rather than saying that she never expected it, it's better to say that she knew from the beginning that Kevin and Su's purpose was this, but after spending so much time preparing in advance, she still couldn't give an answer to this question at the first time Su asked.
However, that can't be called an answer, but a choice. Mikael is alive, Hua certainly knows this, so the answer is fixed, and there is no need to think about it. What she really needs to think about is to make a choice between telling it frankly and concealing it.
But, the long silence itself means everything. Su nodded knowingly and stopped asking.
"I understand, Hua, if one day in the future, you want to return to the Fire Moth... you should still remember the location of the headquarters base, I won't repeat it... Kevin, let's go."
Su tugged at Kevin, who turned around and left expressionlessly before he could exert his strength.
Soon, only Karen, Otto and Eleanor were left behind Hua.
According to everything that happened before, she should have left directly, but at this time she turned around again, without even looking at Otto and Karen who were still in shock, and walked straight to Eleanor who was pretending to faint, and lifted her up.
"Let go... let go!"
Eleanor struggled quickly, but in just two or three seconds, she heard the noisy sound of people shouting and horses neighing behind her.
Her face lit up, and she shouted at Hua:
"Don't put me down! The army of destiny has arrived. Even if you are good at fighting, you can't form an army by yourself. Where are the main forces of you Ming people? In this battle, we won by destiny after all!"
Hua shook his head with pity, put Eleanor down casually, and turned to look at the huge army formation that was slowly approaching under the sunset.
"One person can form an army..."
After the voice fell, she stood there and did nothing, but the army formation that was no different from the thick clouds seemed to be blown away by the strong wind, and both people and pack animals fell to the ground at the same time.
"This...this..."
That was an army of more than 100,000 people, and their "destruction" only took half a sentence.
Eleanor turned her head stiffly and met Hua's cold eyes.
"Okay, you can go back, take your God's Key, but the two of them will stay, as defeated hostages."
