Collapse: Nano Brigade Captain's Journey Across the Galaxy

Continued from last time...

In the expectation of everyone, the ranger slowly opened his eyes, and the sharp-eyed elf was the first to notice the four-pointed star pattern in Chen Ye's eyes. But before she could say anything, the attack of [Herrser of the End] came unexpectedly, and everyone was shocked, but... the attack of [Herrser of the End] stopped three meters away from everyone.

How is this going?

Just when everyone was puzzled, the ranger suddenly said, "The Herrscher of the End, who represents the end of civilization? Haha - he is just a child who guards a treasure house but doesn't know how to use it."

What does it mean? This is the common question in the minds of everyone present, including the Herrscher of the End.

The Ranger also said disdainfully: "When I truly became a Herrscher, I realized what kind of premature babies you all were."

Many people were still confused about this, but the engineer's eyes lit up, because a few years ago, he had talked about a similar topic with the ranger, and in the end, they both agreed that the Herrschers they were dealing with were just premature babies.

After all... research has found that every [Herrser] is a manifestation of the ultimate laws of physics. Theoretically speaking... as long as they are given enough time to develop, destroying the universe is no problem.

What a pity... they are all poor students! What does it matter if the [Power] is powerful? If you don't have enough knowledge and don't know how to use it - it's useless!

Moreover, not only the twelve Herrschers before, but even the current [Herscher of the End] is like this, with a mountain of gold but no key. However... the Ranger is different. He possesses complete knowledge and can exert [Herscher's power] to a very high degree. This... is exactly their hope for a comeback!

The Herrscher of the End was very annoyed by what the ranger said, and he ignored everything and rushed up to fight with the ranger. But unfortunately, his use of the power was only superficial.

He really can only control lightning, fire, ice and so on. He has never even used the [Power] of time that is unique to [End]. On the other hand, the Ranger used the [Power] of [Hersher of the Wind] to create the [Ideal Fluid] and covered his body with the fluid.

He combined them into an indestructible [Fluid Armor], and... not only put it on himself, but also put this [Fluid Armor] on everyone, and then... used the [Power] of the [Rule of Reason] to create another one for himself - the [Thunder Sword]!

He also created the most suitable weapons for all the people behind him, and then the Ranger took the [Thunder Sword] and directly confronted the [Herrserker of the End]!

The opponent used the [Power] of the [Ice Ruler] to create a sword, which collided directly with the ranger's thunder sword, and then... it shattered instantly, but... he could have as many swords like this as he wanted.

But what annoyed him was that those ants had obtained weapons, which made his already limited energy even worse. It also made it more difficult for him to deal with the rangers, and in the end, he had to retreat to seek a chance to catch his breath.

But... the Knights clearly didn't want to give up this chance to turn the tables. The Ranger rushed forward, and the Thunder Sword in his hand swung at him with a strong thunderbolt! The violent thunderbolt poured into the Herrscher of the End's body, paralyzing him on the spot.

Perhaps you will ask - doesn't the [Herrser of the End] also possess the [power] of the [Herrser of Thunder]? How could it be paralyzed on the spot by lightning?

In fact, the reason is very simple, because he has not been able to perfectly master his own [Herrser's power], including the [power] of the [Origin Herrscher], so... he cannot control multiple powers at the same time, but the ranger is different. He uses the [power] of the [Origin Herrscher] to integrate the various [Herrser's powers] in his body.

This allows him to easily use multiple [Powers] at the same time, and more importantly - if you do not actively use a certain [Herrscher Power], then your resistance to attacks from that [Power] will be much lower.

The Ranger grasped this point and dared to do so. After seeing this, the Qi Master behind him also accelerated suddenly and rushed directly behind the Herrscher of the End, and knocked the Herrscher of the End back with a Chongmai Fist!

At the same time, the Mage used an [Ice Piercing] at the right time to control the enemy in place, and the [Druid] who had just woken up summoned [Poisonous Vines] to surround the [Herrserker of the End] who was frozen into ice, and finally - he directly tied an ultimate death knot!

The [Vampire] even summoned the [Vortex of Another World], directly trapping the [Herrser of the End] in place. The reason why the [Knights] tried so hard to control the [Herrser of the End] was entirely because the Ranger was holding back!

The ranger directly constructed a [Meteor Cannon] and put the [Thunder Sword] into it. Then, he injected a large amount of [Honkai Energy] into the [Meteor Cannon]. Most of this [Honkai Energy] was absorbed by the [Thunder Sword].

Then... the ranger activated the [Herrserker Core] in his body, allowing the three elements of fire, ice, and thunder to entwine around the [Thunder Sword], while the other small part of [Honkai Energy] that was not absorbed by the [Thunder Sword] was absorbed by the [Meteor Cannon].

Under the urging of the ranger, these [Honkai energy] are transforming into lightning elements and fire elements, and the overload reaction triggered between the two causes the [Thunder Sword] to tremble continuously.

If the muzzle of the [Meteor Cannon] had not been sealed by the [Ideal Fluid], then... the [Thunder Sword] would have already flown out by now!

However, the Ranger would definitely not let the [Thunder Sword] attack just like that, because... it was not strong enough to kill the [Herrserker of the End] yet. He had to wait a little longer, a little longer...

While the Ranger was charging the two, the Engineer suddenly reminded him loudly: "Ranger! Build an acceleration device outside! It's the one I showed you!"

Upon hearing this, the ranger immediately understood and directly diverted a part of the [Honkai Energy] to construct a [Repulsion Ring] in front of himself, and directly accelerated the [Thunder Sword] through electromagnetic force.

So, after accumulating power for several minutes, the [Thunder Sword] was launched violently! In an instant, the speed exceeded three times the speed of sound, and after passing through dozens of [Repulsion Rings], the speed reached more than twice the speed of light!

(Hollow is all-powerful)

It is hard to imagine how shocking the scene would be if such a speed hit a person! But... the only thing that is certain at the moment is that at this stage, no matter who it is, they will definitely not be able to block this attack!

As expected, [Herrser of the End] just broke through everyone's hard control and was hit by the Ranger! Moreover, even if it was [Thunder Sword], it would only end up being shattered to pieces if it hit [Herrser of the End] at such a speed!

But... this is not important. What is important is that when the [Thunder Sword] was shattered, it was already inside the body of [Herrser of the End]! Therefore, that violent and unparalleled power exploded in the body of [Herrser of the End]!

This force directly blew the structure of the Herrscher of the End to pieces! However, the crowd did not become careless because of this. Instead, the engineers called on the defeated to pour all their attacks on the Herrscher of the End!

Last-hitting is a good habit, and coincidentally—everyone in the “Knights” has this good habit!

Except for the ranger who was half-kneeling on the ground due to exhaustion from using his full-strength attack, everyone else was madly pouring firepower towards the location of the "Hersher of the End"!

And among all this firepower, the proportion of "Moonlight Throne" reached a terrifying 60%!

………………

"The 75th year of the Collapse Era in the Yuanqi Universe"

Five years ago, the Knights defeated the Collapse on behalf of this universe, but the strongest fighter in the Knights fell into a deep sleep.

After a triple diagnosis by an engineer, a priest, and several mages, it was confirmed that the ranger's body was corroded by "Honkai energy".

But this is true. In the past, even if there were members of the "Knights" who fused with the "Herrser Core", they only fused one, and it was a short-lived fusion due to experiments.

Unlike the Ranger, he directly merged six at once! And he also used them in high-intensity combat. It would be strange if nothing went wrong!

But there is also good news, that is, the ranger's body did not collapse, but miraculously recovered with the help of "Honkai Energy".

To be more precise, the ranger's body was transformed into a body that is more adapted to "Honkai Energy".

Then the engineer had a guess - "If there is energy that can help the "Honkai Energy" transform the ranger's body, then the ranger can wake up earlier."

And when the engineer said this, everyone knew what he was referring to - "the Philosopher's Stone"!

The "Philosopher's Stone" is a sacred object that maintains the stability of this world. But since it is used to maintain the stability of the world, the energy in its body must not be too low.

This is indeed the truth - the reason why those guys want to snatch the "Philosopher's Stone" is because they are attracted by the huge energy contained in it.

Fortunately, their ancestors fought desperately to stop them, so they stayed on the planet. But given their foundation, it was only a matter of time before they could find parts to replace the damaged spacecraft.

Their successors wanted to counterattack and take back the "Philosopher's Stone", but it was difficult. The difficulty was not only that the opponent's technological strength was far superior to that of their predecessors.

In addition, many local compatriots also joined them, either hoping to use them to achieve their own hegemony; or hoping that they would take them with them when they left the planet.

Because in their understanding, the world is not far from destruction if it loses the "Philosopher's Stone".

Although this is not true, the fact that the Philosopher's Stone contains enormous power cannot be false.

And those aliens also used their own technology to create a radiation device, so that the entire place where they live forever is covered with energy extracted from the "Philosopher's Stone".

This energy made the creatures in the place where they were hiding even more powerful, so powerful that their ancestors found it difficult to resist.

Taking the above three factors into consideration, it is not easy for our predecessors to keep the aliens under such harsh conditions.

So... the energy in the "Philosopher's Stone" can speed up the transformation of the ranger's body by "Honkai Energy", but don't worry, doing so will not bring danger to the world.

Because according to the research of the "Knights", the so-called "maintaining world stability" is no longer important.

Because the Philosopher's Stone was created by our predecessors in ancient times, with the purpose of stabilizing the world which was still in turmoil at that time.

They collected materials from outer space and combined them with the various rules of this world to create the "Philosopher's Stone". The purpose is to allow the Philosopher's Stone to continuously release power and stabilize this world.

After a certain period of time, the world has completely settled down and the "Philosopher's Stone" is no longer so important.

The only drawback of this method is that after removing the "philosopher's stone", there will be a certain "withdrawal reaction" to the world.

That is the world turmoil caused by the aliens stealing the Philosopher's Stone. But it's strange that the Philosopher's Stone was stolen from the "altar" by aliens hundreds of years ago.

It was only during the first few years that the world was in turmoil and people were living in misery. After that, the world gradually returned to normal.

It even reached a level of prosperity that even the "Philosopher's Stone" had not achieved before. But... one's own health is different from the health gained through taking medicine.

But here comes the point... The "Church" still doesn't believe what they say and is still determined to put the "Philosopher's Stone" back on the "altar".

But if it were just that, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but... the "Church" no longer allows anyone to touch the "Sorcerer's Stone", and... everyone also discovered that the "Church" was using the "Sorcerer's Stone" to do some illegal things.

This made everyone very angry. They had been fighting on the front line for so long, all for this world, but the "Church" was doing those dirty things in secret.

This can't help but make everyone want to destroy the current "church" and create a new "church".

And now, the sleeping rangers need the help of the "Philosopher's Stone". If the "Church" does not give it to them, then everyone will have sufficient reason to destroy them.

And this is exactly the case. The "Church" was not willing to let the "Knights" take away the "Sorcerer's Stone", and the people did not tolerate them and started to snatch it directly.

And in the process of looting, they destroyed the current "church".

Finally...some people from the "Knight's House" came out to rebuild the "Church", while others stayed in the "Knight's House" to guard the ranger, waiting for him to wake up.
