Collapse: Start as a Mimic Herrscher

“I’m Lu Ren, and as you can see, I’m in the midst of a catastrophe.

The man in front of him was named Otto Apokalis, but he did not look very well. His face was purple and he felt light-headed.

Don't learn from him. The ancients once said: "A small Lu pleases the heart, a big Lu hurts the body, and a strong Lu turns to ashes."

"Lu Ren, what are you mumbling here?" Kiana, who had calmed down, looked at Lu Ren, who was muttering something, and asked curiously.

"Cough cough cough, it's nothing, I'm just relieving the tension." Lu Ren was startled and coughed a few times quickly.

System: Wow, it’s really easy to know the destiny.

Lu Ren: Hey, hey, hey, Tongzi, you have no role in these chapters, so please don’t come here to show off your presence!

"Be careful." Kallen reminded Kiana and the others to be careful of the Honkai energy that had condensed into mist in front of them.

A figure about several dozen meters tall walked out from the fog of Honkai energy.

The rain had stopped by then, and everything around was quiet, as if everything else had been muted.

Several people stared at the monster. It had black and purple skin, nothing on its face, and a pair of huge wings spread out behind it.

This is no longer Otto, this is a monster that Honkai can create.

Kallen's legs were shaking a little. Although she had been through many battles and had seen countless dangerous scenes, a deep sense of oppression made her deeply uneasy.

But she remembered her mission and her eyes became firm again.

Kiana's throat moved, and there was no fear in her eyes, but instead a fighting spirit.

Lu Ren just felt that this monster looked a little too abstract.

"So ugly." Bronya expressed Lu Ren's thoughts.

In the distance, the shadow Lu Ren stood on the roof and looked over here, "The plan is finally about to start, I will definitely be able to leave here..."

He smiled as he looked at the people in the distance. The current progress was exactly in line with his expectations. "Once the collapse can be released, I can leave here completely."

"Old friend, nice to see you again." Otto's voice came from behind him.

Shadow Lu Ren looked back at Otto and asked, "Why can all of you find me?"

Otto just laughed and said, "My friend, you are like a firefly in the dark night. You are easy to find."

The shadow Lu Ren didn't say anything, so Otto continued, "Back then, the Red Kite Immortal sealed Yinglong in Europe, and it was you, my old friend, who found it and imprisoned it under the European Cathedral.

After that, you were researching something there and forbade me to help you. Now it seems..."

Otto looked at the virtual Otto who had turned into a monster meaningfully, "That is indeed very dangerous. With such a pure level of Honkai energy, ordinary people would be corroded immediately without leaving any residue even if they did not get close to it. There would be no chance for them to even transform into a dead soldier."

Shadow Lu Ren looked at the monster Ao and nodded with a smile, "That's right, it will make people crazy and paranoid."

Otto felt a little strange when he heard the shadow Lu Ren say these words. Wasn't this Yinglong taken care of by his old friend? Why was he so happy about his death? In an instant, a bold idea appeared in his mind.

"My friend, you are the one who did all this." Otto did not blame me, but said playfully, "You want to leave here, right?"

The shadow Lu Ren did not deny it. When Otto saw him like this, he knew that he was turned into what he is now by the high-purity Honkai energy. It was a pity that he still thought he was doing the right thing. His departure would only cause the high-purity Honkai energy to scatter.

Thinking of this, Otto couldn't help but smile. He was the same. He was also on the road of self-destruction.

But this time, my old friend, your plan has definitely failed. You underestimated yourself now.

Otto looked at Lu Ren in the distance, but he couldn't see clearly what the latter's personality was like.

"Well, let's see whether the new technological achievements of mankind are more powerful, or whether this Honkai is more powerful." Otto collected his thoughts and returned to his leisurely expression.

The three of them were fighting a fierce battle with the monster. Kiana was flying in the sky and harassing the monster from time to time, Lu Ren was attracting the monster's attention from the front, and Kallen was attacking the monster in various places.

"I think it would be better to just use it again." Lu Ren wondered how long it would take to finish the fight if he kept on fighting like this, so he planned to use Taixu Sword God again.

"Two wins in one game, an explosion of youth. Now I have no regrets about my youth." Lu Ren thought wildly.

But sometimes the reversal happens in an instant. Just as Kallen was attacking, a Honkai beast suddenly appeared from nowhere and stabbed Kallen's body directly.

"Damn, where did this Honkai Beast come from!" Lu Ren looked into the distance and saw more Honkai Beasts rushing towards them. Without exception, all of their skin had turned black and purple.

"Could it be that the Honkai energy that was emitted just now was absorbed by these Honkai beasts, and they broke through the cage and ran over here."

Lu Ren suddenly felt that something was wrong. This timeline finally came to an end, and Kallen was still pierced by the Honkai beast.

Kiana's heart was shaken and she was almost slapped by the monster.

"Sister Karen is in danger. I have to think of a solution. This won't work." Kiana began to use her brain to think.

As expected, people often stimulate their potential in adversity. Kiana had a flash of inspiration and the key to breaking the deadlock appeared.

What was Kallen thinking when she was pierced through the body?

Maybe he hopes that this time he closes his eyes, he won’t have to see all these things repeating themselves again.

She looked back at the life of a woman named Kallen, her body falling rapidly.

The monster underwent some changes. It looked at Kallen falling, turned around and killed the Honkai beast that pierced Kallen's body.

Its giant paw seemed to be trying to catch Kallen. Kiana keenly seized the opportunity, and she leaped over the monster's head with the pair of light wings behind her spread out.

Countless golden lasers shot out like a peacock spreading its tail. The monster had its back to Kiana and was unable to react. It could only use its flesh wings to try to block the lasers.

Seeing that Kiana had already launched an attack, Lu Ren injected his Honkai energy into these lasers.

This time the laser was not only three times the size of the original one, but even more powerful was that it was filled with lightning and was extremely violent.

These lasers penetrated the monster's body without any difficulty, just like a sword cutting through mud.

The laser continued to fly forward, blasting through the Honkai beasts that were rushing towards it.

"Wow, is this power so amazing?" When Kiana first thought of using this move, she was thinking that the monster's defense might prevent this move from causing any substantial damage to it.

She just wanted to attract the monster's attention so that Bronya, who was on the ground, could move Kallen to a safe place.

Lu Ren breathed a sigh of relief. This time the problem was completely solved. There wouldn't be any more trouble.

At this moment, he looked up into the distance, his eyes suddenly froze, and then he walked over.

But Karin didn't fall to the ground in the end. Even though the monster was hit by the fatal willpower, its hand remained motionless and she fell into its hand.

"Sister Karen!" Kiana flew over, removed her Valkyrie armor, and helped Karen sit up.

Bronya also walked over to the two people, but she was thinking about something else.

"What is this Valkyrie armor? I can't find any information about it in the Destiny database."

She looked back at Kiana, whose face was filled with sadness.

"This is just an illusion. Even if we save her, nothing will change. She really died more than 500 years ago."

"I know these principles..." Kiana said softly, and Kallen, who was being supported, suddenly coughed up a pool of blood.

"Ms. Kiana..." Kallen said reluctantly, but was interrupted by Kiana.

"Sister Karen, please don't say anything. You are very weak now. Those Honkai beasts and monsters have been dealt with. Don't worry."

Kallen held Kiana's hand, "Thank you, even though I'm just a virtual personality, you're still so gentle to me."

Kiana's face tightened, "When did you know that?"

“It started from a certain day. It was when I realized that everyone was doing the same repetitive things every day.

At the end of the loop, I would be killed by these monsters, and when I woke up, I would be back to the previous day.

I tried everything to escape this cycle, and a while ago I realized I was never going to leave.”

Kiana's heart ached. She couldn't imagine what a person would become after endless repetition.

"Ms. Kiana, can you tell me how many years the real Karen has been dead?" Karen asked.

"It's been over five hundred years." Kiana said.

"It's been so many years. I am a personality reconstructed from Kallen's memories. In her memories, before she died, she sealed a person she loved deeply. The moment I thought of Yae Sakura, I understood the meaning of my birth."

"Ms. Kiana, if you meet Yae Sakura in the outside world, please tell her these words that have been buried for more than five hundred years."

Kallen leaned over to Kiana's ear and whispered softly.

"Oh no, this area can no longer hold on. Let's start the logout operation!" Bronya said hurriedly as she watched the surroundings gradually disappear.
