As a symbiotic being, I raise children amidst the chaos.

"Hmph! Even without the help of others, I can still transform myself into the most powerful and incomparable Valkyrie! Then I can smoothly find my stinky old man and mother!" Kiana stubbornly raised her chin and shouted loudly.

Kiana first subconsciously bit her pink lips, then turned her head sharply to the side as if in a huff, but secretly opened one of her big round eyes and glanced furtively at Chen Yuan.

After a long while, she finally seemed to have made a major decision, and said coquettishly, "But, thinking about it carefully, what you just said wasn't entirely without merit. In that case, alright, I'll let myself develop a little bit of dependence on you!"

“That’s right, this is the Kiana I know! But remember not to worry me.” Chen Yuan said with a smile, slowly standing up, stretching his body, and letting out a pleasant sigh.

"Alright, alright, let's go downstairs for lunch. You've been training for so long this morning, your stomach must be growling by now." With that, Chen Yuan walked towards the door.

"Hmph, I won't let you worry!" Kiana muttered under her breath, then took a deep breath and suddenly raised one arm. A circular black hole suddenly appeared in the air above her palm, like a mysterious vortex. "Chenyuan, come and take a look at this."

Hearing Kiana's call, Chen Yuan turned around curiously. When his gaze fell on the circular black hole, a sense of familiarity welled up in his heart, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.

"What is this?" It felt like something important had been forgotten deep in his memory, so close yet so far, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, you'll find out soon." Kiana winked mischievously, then imitated Sirin's action, snapping her fingers lightly.

As the fingers snapped, several short swords gleaming with dazzling golden light emerged slowly from the black hole as if by magic. They were neatly arranged in the air, exuding a powerful aura that sent chills down one's spine.

"Spears of the Void!" When Chen Yuan's gaze fell upon those short swords, his heart jolted, and he recognized their origin almost instantly. These were created by Sirin through imaginary number transformation; how could they be in Kiana's hands?

"Hmm? Chenyuan, so you know what this thing is." Kiana felt a surge of pride after noticing Chenyuan's intense reaction.

She tilted her head playfully, looked straight at Chen Yuan, and said in a sweet voice, "Since that's the case, then tell me in detail."

Chen Yuan took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart and make his voice sound as calm as possible. "The Spear of Subspace is a deadly weapon forged by the Herrscher of the Void using the power of imaginary numbers."

"It contains extremely terrifying destructive power, capable of easily tearing through space, and even creating black holes that attract enemies. But... I really can't understand why it appeared in your hands."

After hearing Chen Yuan's explanation, Kiana's eyes instantly brightened. Excitedly brandishing her Void Spear a few times, she shouted, "It seems that girl named Sirin really didn't lie to me! I didn't expect that little thing to be so powerful!"

"You just said... Sirin?" Chen Yuan's eyes widened as he stared at Kiana in disbelief. If it were just the Spear of the Void, he might have been able to maintain his composure, but when those two words came out of Kiana's mouth, Chen Yuan felt his mind go blank for a moment, and he was completely stunned.

"How did you know she existed? No, wait! How did you even meet her?" Chen Yuan grabbed Kiana's shoulders tightly, questioning her with agitated emotions.

Faced with Chen Yuan's barrage of questions, Kiana tilted her head, blinked her big eyes, and tried hard to remember. After a long while, she slowly spoke.

"Actually, I'm not really sure... Last night when I was sleeping, I suddenly felt like I had entered a space completely enveloped in purple light."

Kiana paused, then continued, "Then I saw Sirin in that space. I was quite startled, and soon we started fighting for no apparent reason."

"Sigh, it's a pity I still lost in the end..." Kiana said, her head drooping listlessly like a deflated balloon, looking very dejected.

"Then she handed this thing to me and said some things about power that were completely baffling. I had absolutely no idea what she meant!"

“Power…” Chen Yuan murmured to himself, his originally relaxed brows now tightly furrowed. The meaning of the word “power” should be the core of the Lawyer.

If Kiana's words are true, does that mean the Queen is about to descend upon the land during this period? However, Chenyuan felt that this possibility was extremely slim. After all, based on his understanding of the plot, there was no way to revive Sirin now, and Otto couldn't do that either.

Just then, Kiana continued, "Besides, Sirin has always called you brother..." As she spoke, she looked at Chen Yuan with a strange gaze, a look that contained both curiosity and a hint of dissatisfaction.

Finally, she pouted slightly and complained irritably, "How many sisters do you have? How come someone keeps popping up everywhere calling you 'brother'?" After saying that, Kiana crossed her arms and stared at Chen Yuan with a suspicious look.

After hearing this, Chen Yuan was momentarily at a loss for words to explain to Kiana. After all, the word "brother" could very well cause a series of unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles in certain situations.

However, at this moment, more concerned than these possible misunderstandings was the question of why Sirin appeared in Kiana's dream.

"Kiana, don't be anxious." Chen Yuan took a deep breath, calming his restless heart. Although deep down he already had some guesses about why Sirin addressed him that way.

However, due to the lack of that crucial memory, it was difficult to give a reasonable explanation. So he could only bite the bullet and say, "The matter of Sirin calling me brother is a bit complicated and difficult to explain. Let's just assume it's similar to the situation with Yae Sakura and the others."

"Tch, who cares! I don't care at all!" Kiana pouted and replied irritably. For some reason, when she saw Chen Yuan's seemingly perfunctory attitude, a trace of dissatisfaction welled up in her heart.

"Since you're unwilling to talk about it, then forget it. I'm not interested in listening anyway! Humph!" With that, Kiana turned her head away angrily, refusing to look at Chen Yuan anymore.

[Important story item detected – Spear of the Void, key story character: Sirin; Simulation – Second Great Collapse about to begin, location: Babylon Laboratory!]

[Dungeon Help: Sirin's Affection Level Increases/Decreases by 50%; Start Simulation?]

"The Second Great Collapse, Babylon Laboratory?" Before Chen Yuan could ask Kiana a few more questions, that familiar yet cold system voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"Another bot? What a coincidence!" Chen Yuan sighed helplessly, slowly walking to Kiana's side and staring intently at the Void Spear in her hand that emitted a mysterious light.

After a moment, Chen Yuan gently raised his hand and patted Kiana's head tenderly, saying softly in his heart, "Alright, let's begin the simulation."

Following Chen Yuan's command, a system notification sounded—[Simulation begins, scene transition.] However, this situation was different from the past.

Normally, Chen Yuan would be instantly teleported to the simulation instance, but at this moment, what first entered his mind was not a specific scene, but a blurry and incomprehensible image.

In the images presented, the once magnificent Babylonian laboratory is now a mess and in ruins.

Broken walls and ruins were scattered everywhere, as if they had been wantonly kneaded by a huge and merciless hand. Streaks of lightning ripped through the night sky, accompanied by bursts of thunder, illuminating this desolate land in an intermittent light.

The air was thick with a nauseating stench of decay and an atmosphere of despair, making it feel suffocating. Cracks in the ground, like the gaping maws of a ferocious beast, continued to expand outwards, proclaiming that this land was utterly devastated.

Countless illusory figures darted swiftly through the ruins, their movements stiff and eerie. The eyes of these figures were empty and lifeless, like soulless shells, no longer living individuals, but walking corpses manipulated by endless pain and corrupting forces.

Chen Yuan stood in the center of the ruins, his gaze heavy as lead, fixed intently on the scene before him. His brows furrowed slightly, forming a deep furrow.

Slowly raising his head, he felt the intense, almost tangible pressure emanating from the sky, like a mountain pressing down on his heart, making it hard for Chen Yuan to breathe.

"This is the Babylon Laboratory... the place left behind after the devastating collapse," Chen Yuan murmured to himself, his voice low and hoarse, carrying an indescribable heaviness. He whispered, "Sirin... wait for me!"

Just then, without warning, an extremely dazzling light suddenly struck. The light was so bright that it instantly engulfed everything. Chen Yuan felt a white light before his eyes, then lost all consciousness, and his body involuntarily slumped forward...
