Collapse Immortal

"Are you asking about the Herrscher?"

"Hersher? That name is quite fitting. Am I also a Herrscher?"

"Of course you are a Herrscher, but you are different from them."

"What's the difference? Because I'm a pretty and cute girl?"

"That's true, but the real difference is that you are a native, complete Herrscher, with your own thoughts and feelings, while They are incomplete, without thoughts or feelings."

The voice on the communicator paused for a moment before continuing:

"Ellie, you can make your own choices, but they have no choices. They are more like a natural phenomenon than life itself."

“I feel like they’re also very pitiful.”

“Don’t pity natural phenomena.”

"But, didn't you say I'm also a Herrscher?"

Alicia looked up at the sky, as if searching for the moon in the daytime. She said slowly:

"We are all Herrschers. If possible, I hope to allow them to make their own choices. Who knows, maybe we can become good friends."

“…I will do it.”

"I haven't even said what I want to do yet, but I'm very happy."

The moon is not very conspicuous during the day, but it can still be found. Alicia looked at the moon and said:

"I'm sorry for making you work so hard because of my willfulness, but as a lover, it's okay for me to rely on you a little more, right?"

On the moon, the boy looked at the town, seemed to feel the girl's gaze, and nodded solemnly.

"Ah."

"Yeah, I'm really happy now. I feel like singing. Do you want to hear me sing?"

"Next time, don't ask questions like this even though you already know the answer."

"That's right. After all, no one dislikes my singing. But before I sing, I want to ask you something."

"what happened again?"

"I heard that the First Herrscher was killed by an unknown attack. Do you have any clues?"

“…Maybe it’s justice from heaven.”

"Hmph, you must have informed Weiwei in advance, right? This is biased, so I decided that we are entering a relationship crisis from now on."

"Ah this..."

"From now on, just call me once a month, biased Mr. Moon Rabbit."

Listening to the cute coquettish voice in the communicator, Fang Ning naturally understood that Alicia was not angry. She might have said that because she thought she would be very busy in the future.

"Actually, I'm not that busy. Half a month should be no problem."

"No, we're already in a relationship crisis. After listening to my song, Mr. Moon Rabbit, please remember to hang up the phone."

The pink girl hummed softly, and her cheerful and lively voice drifted among the ruins, adding a few touches of lightness to this increasingly crumbling world.

The singing stopped soon after, but Alicia noticed that the communicator hadn't been disconnected as expected, so she pretended to be angry and asked:

"Mr. Tsukito hasn't hung up yet. Is there anything else you want to say? Miss Fairy will listen to you."

"It's nothing, but you know, I'm the only one on the moon..."

"so what?"

"You know, rabbits can die of loneliness, Miss Fairy."

Alicia suddenly became happy, and she jumped down from the broken wall lightly, landing silently, and walked forward, but she still said:

"Let Wei Erwei accompany you. There are so many of them. You won't be lonely even without me."

"But Miss Fairy, you are unique in my heart. Nothing can replace you. Even the loneliness I feel when I can't see you is different from other loneliness."

"really?"

"Of course!"

"Then I'll trust you, even if it's only with reluctance. Remember, it's only with reluctance."

"I'm definitely keeping it in mind."

"Oh, yes, there's one more thing I forgot to mention."

"What's the matter again?"

Looking at the moon in the sky, Alicia put her finger to her lips, blew a kiss, and said with a chuckle:

"I love you."

Feeling the love that flew across the earth and moon and hit him directly, Fang Ning couldn't help but reveal a helpless yet doting look, and replied with a smile:

"I love you too."

Chapter 28 The So-called Perfect Ruler

The first great collapse came to an end. On the moon, Fang Ning continued to study the divine power in the waves.

After all, I have promised Alicia that those Herrschers will have the power of choice, or in other words, have humanity.

If we don't work harder, when the next great collapse comes, we won't have any results to show for it...

Ellie won't always listen to him.

The next great collapse will probably break out in a year, and Fang Ning knows the location and types of Herrschers very clearly.

The premise is that he does not get involved.

The essence of collapse is disorder and chaos, and the addition of any variable will lead to a sudden change in the result.

Fang Ning realized this when she faced the Honkai disease.

The chaotic storm outside the world did not disappear, but appeared inside the world in a different form.

The so-called Herrschers, with the exception of Alicia, are all complete laws that were accidentally pieced together from the incomplete laws mixed in the chaotic storm.

Therefore, a rule of law is essentially just a rule of law.

For example, the Ruler of Reason this time was born when the law of knowledge attached to human beings.

All His actions appear to be destructive, but in reality, He is merely enforcing His own laws through the medium of humankind.

Each Herr has his own laws, but the process of enforcing their own laws will cause great damage to humanity.

Except, Ellie.

Fang Ning didn't know what the law of origin was because Ai Li had never exercised her own law.

But he guessed that perhaps because she had her own thoughts and emotions, she was able to control her instincts.

If other Herrschers could possess their own thoughts and emotions, then it would indeed be possible for them to become friends with Alicia and humans.

Because the Herrs are free, according to Fang Ning's understanding, they are born from the laws and are born gods and demons.

If there is enough time, it is not impossible for spiritual intelligence to be born.

But this time is often tens of thousands of years. By the time they develop intelligence, the civilization on the planet will have been destroyed by their laws.

And according to Fang Ning's calculations, when the laws of a Herrscher cover the entire planet and give birth to spiritual intelligence, it will become another kind of existence.

Star God.

Their person is higher than that of the Lawgiver, or in other words, they are the perfect Lawgiver.

Fang Ning was unable to estimate how many star gods there were in the universe.

There are just too many, too many.

The appearance of every star god means the complete destruction of a civilization.

As for Alicia, as long as she enforces her own laws, she will immediately be honored as a star god.

Even among the star gods, she is probably the most special.

Back to the point, Fang Ning knew a lot of things because of his ability to deduce, but he couldn't say it out loud.

Because the Herrscher is the key to this great catastrophe.

If Fang Ning revealed their information, it would mean that he would be involved in this disaster, and the entry of a variable like him would make the collapse even more chaotic, thus giving birth to a new Herrscher.

Moreover, because he was in the midst of a great catastrophe, at that time, the aura of catastrophe was overwhelming, and Fang Ning could not even calculate the laws held by the new law maker.

In addition, collapse is always a catastrophe for civilization.

Therefore, although the Herrschers born from the Honkai have no intention of destroying civilization, they are simply enforcing the law.

But that law is bound to cause great damage to civilization.

Simply put, no matter how fast civilization develops during the collapse, the laws held by the Herrschers will always pose a huge threat.

This is not targeted, but simply a characteristic of the collapse.

Therefore, when faced with collapse, civilization will never be able to rely on just one trick to conquer everything.

Only by constantly changing and improving can we overcome collapse.

If you only covet temporary convenience, you will surely suffer the consequences in the future.

Fang Ning really hopes that the current civilization can overcome the collapse, but this is impossible.

Because although human civilization has unified the language today, it is still inevitably trapped in solidification.

Civilization lacks sufficient vitality. Even if it has many extraordinary geniuses, it will be powerless in the face of collapse.

And individual heroism is prevalent.

So they can never defeat the collapse.

We cannot rely on certain individuals alone. Collapse is a test of civilization. No matter how powerful an individual is, he cannot represent the entire civilization.

The more you pursue individual strength, the less likely you are to defeat the collapse.

The Herrscher is a trap for Honkai. If people only see its power and chase after it, it means failure in the fight against Honkai.

Eliminating the Herrscher is necessary, but not everything.

Under this premise, it is clear why his sister is a demon star.

Because in the future, it was she who single-handedly pushed humanity into the huge pit of madly pursuing individual power.

And if you think about it, you will understand that how can a strong person born on a planet defeat a cosmic phenomenon?

Even if it can destroy a single star, it is useless because the magnitude difference between the two is too great.

Therefore, taking the mass line is the correct answer.

All people are part of civilization.

Fang Ning knew that he did not have the leadership to convince all of humanity to unite, nor could he reverse the individualistic trend of the entire civilization, so he could only find a way to save some people from this doomed failure.

Time passes quickly on the moon, and in the blink of an eye, three months have passed.

Fang Ning's analysis of the waves was also getting better. If nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to figure out the internal structure of the wave before the second major collapse.

On this day, Fang Ning immersed his mind into the waves as usual to explore the mysteries within.

At this moment, the wheelchair began to vibrate.

Fang Ning broke away from the waves and shook his head. The familiar screen appeared in front of him. Snowflakes flashed by, and the mechanic with his arms crossed came into view.

"What's wrong? What happened again?"

"We had some conflicts with the Fire Moths, resulting in casualties. Now the United Nations has defined Spiral Workshop as a terrorist organization."

"As expected, with the tyranny of the Fire Moth, there's no way they'd tolerate the existence of another organization that knows about the collapse."

"That's normal. After all, they don't understand what Honkai symbolizes. I'm afraid they still think it's just a coincidence."

“Have you communicated with them?”

"They thought I was talking nonsense. No one believed that the world would end in a dozen years."

Fang Ning sighed. That's why he said that the current civilization cannot overcome the collapse and is too slow.

However, this can only be said from an outsider's perspective. For those senior executives, things can indeed be described as a time of peace and prosperity.
