Time in a collapsing world

"Things are a bit troublesome..."

Not only Kevin and Hen, but also Alicia and Destobia. There were densely packed Honkai beasts around them, as well as Kosmo, who was already fighting with the beasts. .

"Can you protect yourself?" Alicia and Destobia stood back to back.

"Don't worry about me, captain, don't forget, I'm also a fusion warrior~" Destobia held up the black abyss in her hand, and together with Alicia, who replaced the bow and arrow with white flowers, they fearlessly faced the incoming forces from around them. The fierce herd of Honkai beasts.

"Then, let's break out first. These Honkai beasts are coming in endlessly. We can't waste more time here~?" Alicia could already feel a faint attraction acting on her body, and she couldn't help but feel the pain on her forehead. A trickle of sweat broke out.

The Herrscher appeared too quickly this time, and used such a powerful killing move as soon as he appeared. No one could react. If there is no solution at the base, Mu Dalu may really disappear into history. .

Roar---! ! !

All the Honkai Beasts swarmed up and rushed towards the two people in the center.

……

Fire Chasing Moth Base.

"Dr. Mei, the black hole created by the Ninth Herrscher..."

"Don't worry about it."

"what?"

"Don't worry about it, our attention should be on the Ninth Herrscher's body now." Mei exhaled a long breath, "With our human abilities, we cannot suppress the black hole. In addition to eradicating the Ninth Herrscher as soon as possible, Apart from the Nine Laws, there is no other way.”

"But the location of the Ninth Herrscher is also next to the black hole, and even the 'bullets' of the Seven Thunders of Purification will be affected..."

"Then wait until the Ninth Herrscher leaves the gravitational field of the black hole." Mei looked at the Ninth Herrscher on the big screen who seemed to be floating easily next to the black hole and said, "He also needs to use his own power. To resist the gravity of the black hole, even if it is his own creation, who says that the Creator can definitely suppress his own creation? When the black hole continues to grow, the Ninth Herrscher will definitely be unable to bear the consumption. At that time, he will be killed His perfect timing.”

"But then...!"

Mu Continent will probably cease to exist!

"This is the only way at the moment." Mei thought for a moment and added: "This is the only way for us humans at the moment."

If it weren't for humans...

Mei thought of Li who had just been found and was rushing to the battlefield. To be honest, she couldn't figure out where the upper limit of his power was after another transformation. It was related to the concept, but it was not limited to extraction. There must be more. Something happened.

But even if he has a way to suppress the black hole and kill the Ninth Herrscher, Mei doesn't really want Li to do this, because if he really shows his true ability, Li will probably become another agent of Honkai, that is to say, After the ninth Honkai, the tenth Honkai will also follow due to Ri's rampage.

And Li without restrictions... Mei suspected that he would be a more powerful being than any Herrscher before.

This is the contradiction between the two current methods. If humans want to kill the Ninth Herrscher, they must wait for him to actively stay away from the black hole. However, the ever-expanding black hole is like the Damocles that hangs over everyone in Mu Continent. The sword will lose one point with every second that passes. In the end, the cost of killing the Ninth Herrscher may very well be the entire Mu Continent.

The second method requires the help of Li's hand, and the price is full of unknowns. Will Li go berserk in the battle with the Ninth Herrscher? Will Li's power cause a monster bigger than the Ninth Herrscher? harm, and whether Li is willing to save a continent at her own expense...

Two methods, choose one.

Mei cannot see into the future, so she needs to take every step carefully.

After a long silence, Mei ordered: "Connect Li's communication."

……

"Mr. Li, Dr. Mei's communication." Li, who was still rushing to the scene, was sitting in the car when a communicator was suddenly thrust into the car by the soldier in front, saying that it would be exclusively for Li's use.

"Dr. Mei, it's me." Li picked up the communicator and put it to his ear. He didn't know what the other person said, but he actually raised his eyebrows with a surprised look on his face, and then hung up the communication without saying anything.

"Mr. Li, do you need me to take you to Captain Alicia?" the soldier acting as the driver asked.

"No, send me directly to Kevin. They should be closest to the Ninth Herrscher, right?"

"Okay." As soon as the soldier turned the steering wheel, the car drove onto another road.

"Kill the Ninth Herrscher in the shortest possible time? Doesn't that look too high on me?" With an unknown smile on her face, Li looked out the window. From here, she could already see the black hole in the distance. location.

Kill the Ninth Herrscher through a black hole? Although he can do it, he can even solve the black hole easily, but the cost will definitely be greater than imagined.

Did Mei mean what she said? She was clearly warning him not to abuse his powers before, but now her attitude has completely changed, and she has directly asked him to carry him up the black hole. Isn't she no longer afraid that she will go to Honkai's side and backhand some big mouths to humans? ?

But it's right to think about it. As a Herrscher, compared with a continent, the continent must be more important.

Li thought of those acquaintances who were still on the battlefield, and put aside protecting this continent. She still wanted to live well, and did not want to waste all her time on this continent that even if it disappeared, it would not be painful for her. There is not much time left, so we just need to protect Alicia and the others, right? As for the black hole, the Ninth Herrscher... he just needs to say that he can't do it. Mei shouldn't embarrass him, right?

However, this does not mean that he will not help, but he will do what he can. Li can help Mu Dalu, but only if he can protect himself.

Li doesn't obey Mei's orders unconditionally like Kevin. He has his own ideas. He refuses to work mindlessly and just wants to live for himself and the people around him. That's enough.

For the lives of those around him, he will go all out and even sacrifice everything. As for wanting to become the savior of the entire continent? Sorry, he can't do it, go all out just to get a good reputation and some insignificant human lives?

Ah~ Then they should just go and die, even though there are a lot of them, but so what? Their life and death will not affect my daily life. After all, I don't know them at all. But after this continent sinks, the world will become worse, right? That would be a bit troublesome for me, but is it really necessary to continue to protect the world that is becoming increasingly riddled with holes?

Sigh... It would be great if there was another world. I could take other people there and live a happy and ordinary life. How great.

[Something is wrong with your thoughts~] His voice sounded.

"Oh? Are you trying to say that I have to sacrifice my life for this continent?"

[I didn’t say that, I just wanted to remind you that your disregard for human life has become more and more serious. 】

"How could it be? Aren't I very good to Alicia and Nozomi?"

[Ha...it's just a step-by-step process, first the dead, then the strangers, what's next? Will it be the turn of those familiar people around you? 】

"..."

[Haha... Just calm down after this collapse. I don't want to remind you all the time. Although I don't care, I just don't want to see you fall into it without realizing it like a fool. 】
