The Artifact Forger from the Beginning of Collapse

Although her father Siegfried was secretly observing and protecting Kiana, Kiana's ability to investigate the Honkai everywhere, from Europe to Asia, is simply incredible.

In Chen Li's view, Kiana is a born wandering saint, the kind of person who... if she has no companions by her side, her brain will be used to its limit, and if she has companions by her side, she will donate her brain.

In a game, it would be an absolute one-bond holy body.

Wanderer: When there is only one hero on our side and that hero is Qiyana, attack power +80%, health +80%, defense +80%, and when health drops to 1 point, there is a chance to dodge this fatal attack and quickly recover to full health.

[Dad]: How about... Your Majesty, you bestow the snacks you can't finish on your original body?

[Queen of the Sky]: By what right?

[Dad]: It breaks my heart to see you starving.

[Queen of the Sky]: ...

[Dad]: Although it seems like your physical body is suffering now, once you regain control of your body, it will be your own body that will be depleted. It breaks my heart.

[Queen of the Sky]: What you said makes some sense...

[Queen of the Sky]: But I can't use my powers now, so I can't transform the food within my heart into food to bestow upon her.

[Father]: Leave this to me. You can try using this bullet. It's a small thing I made by combining the power of the void with other things. It can briefly and weakly interfere with the spatial relationship between reality and consciousness.

Chen Li teleported several bullets to the Queen.

But this was actually a "bullet screen" or chat log that Chen Li obtained from Yakumo Yukari.

After gaining access to WeChat Moments, Chen Li naturally used chat logs from different friends.

Chen Li discovered that these bullet comments not only had different special effects and colors, but also contained some small surprises.

For example, Yukari Yakumo's gaps can move people from reality into the painting, breaking down the barriers between realms, and her bullet comments have a similar subtle effect.

Chen Li is now using this "bullet screen" in the illusion created by Xilin, and can even throw the small cake that Xilin left for Chen Li in the illusion into reality.

The influence of "bullet comments" is weak, but they are sufficient for simply delivering some food.

[Father]: Also, I suggest that Your Majesty give the food bestowed upon your spirit form a resounding yet affectionate name. This will not only reflect your compassion but also instill in your spirit form a subconscious sense of submission upon hearing your name. This is very important.

[Queen of the Sky]: That makes sense. So what name should I use?

[Old Man]: Spirit of the Spring!

See you in the picture!

……

"...Why were you able to follow me out?" Xilin looked at Chen Li, the Golden Houmu King, who was swaggering behind her, with a puzzled expression.

“Your Majesty, is it possible that I am not so out of place in this world?” Chen Li pointed to another colleague wearing a yellow Houmu doll coat who was passing by as he was following behind Xilin.

"..." Xilin didn't know why, but in the illusionary world created by Yu Duchen, Houmu had become an extremely popular toy that swept the entire world.

So much so that if someone is accompanied by a Golden Houmu King, people will only think that person is fashionable, not strange.

After thinking about it, Xilin felt that it might still be her own problem, since she was the one who created this illusion.

I never imagined that Chen Li was actually the one who plagiarized this illusion.

"Alright, Your Majesty, you should continue to enjoy your wonderful time," Chen Li said, observing the illusory world.

"W-What do you mean by 'good times'?"

"Sorry, it was a slip of the tongue. Your Majesty, you should continue to lurk around these two people, looking for an opportunity to find a weakness, and then give them a ruthless blow." Chen Li changed his words again.

"Hmph! That's more like it." Sirin nodded reluctantly.

“Celine, come here quickly! This mall just opened last month, and there are so many interesting shops. I’ve been wanting to bring you here for ages. Let’s shop to our hearts’ content today!” Cecilia’s voice rang out just in time.

As Chen Li watched Cecilia reluctantly walk towards her, he could sense her satisfaction with this illusory world.

Although this world is just an illusion, the environment simulated by the Eighth God's Key Feather Crossing Dust is just like reality.

With any game or food, you can have an extremely realistic or even more realistic experience in Feather Dust.

Chen Li had been in this illusionary world for three whole days.

Chen Li personally enjoyed this carefree time in the illusionary world. After all, in this illusionary world, he could learn knowledge, accumulate the number of times he could ask "Then let me ask you", and also give himself a good vacation.

Of course, this also means that Chen Li was held by Xi Lin for three whole days, and Xi Lin really didn't treat Chen Li like an outsider...

You're in big trouble; you've fallen into the trap of karma.

[So, after three days in this illusion, can you still easily accept the ending Sirin deserves?]

"Hmm...more or less. Alright, what are you babbling about? Let's continue teaching me the original script." Chen Li didn't want to discuss this issue with the little elf.

【Alright, my dear master. But today we're not learning any new primordial script, just a review. Come, follow me…】

The Miracle Sprite dutifully began writing the original text for Professor Chen Li.

While studying, Chen Li also diligently fed the Spring Spirit.

In order to quickly increase the favorability of the Spring Spirit, Chen Li specially spent Star Stones to make the Spring Spirit's time linked to his own illusion time.

Serving two Herrschers of the Void at the same time, Chen Li felt like he was a master at conquering the Herrschers of the Void!

Watching Cecilia dragging her around the mall, constantly changing clothes and experiencing new sensations, Chen Li was genuinely worried that Cecilia would become too engrossed in it.

No, or rather, we're already deeply involved.

Chen Li watched as Xilin's mood changed from "restrained" to "happy", then to "triumphant", and even to "proud".

Celine's excuses finally changed from "Is this one better, or that one..." to "Hey, do I look good in this dress?"

Cecilia's words were naturally full of genuine praise.

The two seemed to be getting along more and more harmoniously.

However, every time Cecilia tries to hug Sirin, Sirin seems to resist a little.

Chen Li knew that Cecilia's strategy to win over Sirin had reached a critical moment.

Chen Li's gaze left Xilin and fell on Siegfried, who was slumped on a mall bench, exhausted from carrying large bags.

At this moment, a mature, brown-haired man wearing a trench coat, glasses, and a scarf is seemingly conducting some kind of soul-searching questioning in front of Siegfried.

“Siegfried, every second you stay here makes reality more precarious, or are you planning to give up the fight and drown in this false dream?” Walter stood in front of Siegfried, adjusted his glasses, and said slowly.

Walter Yang, leader of Anti-Entropy Alliance, the second Herrscher of Reason, a legendary man.

I've taught students, created animations, and even hand-crafted mecha... but that was in the future, of course.

However, Walter is no ordinary man now, after all, he is a man who can do sit-ups on the verge of life and death.

Even though Sirin had crushed his body into dust, he could still hide in the Herrscher Core as a consciousness, and could reconstruct his body at any time after regaining control of the Herrscher Core.

For this man, death was merely the beginning of a new life.

Faced with Walter's questioning, Siegfried slumped in his chair, a series of images flashing before his eyes, as if he were in another time and space.

A time and space of blood and fire.

Siegfried instinctively looked at his left hand, but what he saw was a claw as sharp as a ferocious beast!

This is the form of the Kaslana family after awakening.

"Boom!" Just as Siegfried's mind was extremely unstable and his power was about to spiral out of control, the huge floor-to-ceiling window behind him shattered with a deafening crash.

Even Sirin, who was a little further away, was affected.

Just as Sirin was completely oblivious to the small shards of glass produced by the explosion, a figure rushed towards her and grabbed her, ignoring the glass shards that momentarily cut her face... The brilliance of that instant dazzled Sirin.

Chen Li stood behind Xilin, using the soft body of the mascot costume as a cushion for the mother and daughter in front of him.

"Your Majesty, you're in trouble! You've fallen in love!" Seeing that Xilin was still in a daze, Chen Li lifted his leg and walked away.

Walter, watching all this from afar, could only hope that Siegfried would wake up from the illusion as soon as possible.

However, just as Walter was about to turn and leave, a soft hand landed on his shoulder.

"Who?" Walter instinctively raised his cane.

However, when I saw that it was a giant Houmu doll, I felt that I was making a fuss over nothing.

"Phew..." But just as Walter breathed a sigh of relief, the doll's voice made his heart leap into his throat.

“Joachim Nokian Vitanen…” the Houmu doll slowly spoke, calling out Walter Yang’s real name.

"you……"

"You have reached a turning point in your destiny. I have high hopes for you, the man who will repeatedly save the world from peril," Chen Li said slowly.

"Saving the world? And repeatedly?" Walter was completely dumbfounded.

Chen Li's words were no different from a person from the future traveling to World War I and asking a passing soldier whether it was World War I or World War II.

The first reaction of that soldier during World War I must have been: Holy crap, there's a World War II?

"who are you?"

"You don't need to know who I am, you only need to know that I will always watch over you, forever... No matter which world you go to, I will write your story in detail in my history. And then, when those who love you and those you love temporarily lose you, I will offer all of this." A strange smile was outlined on the Houmu doll.

"What do you mean? Who are you?"

Holy crap, what do you mean by "no matter which world you go to"?

What does it mean for the person who loves you and the person you love to temporarily lose you?
