Collapse, women's clothing strategy Qiyana, then

"...It doesn't sound like something that's hard to understand."

"Perhaps, after you come into contact with it, you will be able to understand something from it."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan nodded slowly.

Upon seeing this, Durandal's face showed a look of astonishment.

Wait a minute, although I don't know much about it, coming into contact with that kind of thing is definitely extremely dangerous!

Soon, Kiana's voice came through, sounding slightly anxious.

"Don't worry, with Kevin here, I don't think there will be any problems. It's just a little bit, and I'll stop as soon as things get bad."

I think it's still too dangerous, and my sisters are strongly against it too.

"Tell them that I have strong Honkai energy resistance and am a Herrscher, so seeing the End is like seeing the leader."

Okay... but you have to be very careful!

“Understood,” Bai Yan said, then looked at Kevin. “How should I make contact?”

“Come with me.” Kevin nodded and turned around to say.

Bai Yan immediately followed.

Durandal followed closely behind, her expression solemn as if she didn't want to miss a single detail.

Volume 1: Chapter 252: Between Illusion and Reality, Kevin's Message

As Bai Yan followed Kevin, he noticed that the surrounding scenery was slowly collapsing involuntarily.

He glanced at Durandal stealthily, but she seemed oblivious.

So they waited a while longer, until the breakdown had become unbearable.

The chaotic space is like a wall that has been neglected for a long time, with pieces falling off to reveal the emptiness behind it.

Bai Yan finally couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you notice that something is wrong here?"

However, neither Kevin nor Durandal responded; they simply continued on their way, ignoring his words.

He stopped and let the two walk in front of him, then stared at their backs.

The space continued to collapse, and the ground beneath our feet turned into empty space, but we could still stand on it without falling.

Just then, Durandal's figure suddenly disappeared.

Only Kevin remained.

Kevin stopped in his tracks.

Turn around Lu Yi Er II Chao Er.

That gaze remained indifferent, but at this moment it maintained a genuine interaction with Bai Yan.

Clearly, it is somewhat different from the recently vanished "Durandal".

How many did you guess?

"That depends on what you're asking about—the truth of this world, or the thoughts of Dr. Mei, whom I know."

"...There is only one plum."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan felt much more at ease.

Very well, this Kevin is indeed special.

Just like that plum blossom in the World Bubble!

"It seems that whether it's the world bubble or the illusion, they are essentially part of a smokescreen, right?" Bai Yan asked.

For a fleeting moment, Kevin's perpetually frozen face showed a flicker of doubt.

After 50,000 years of perseverance, he, who was struggling to express his pain, was now wavering.

He stood in the void, silent for a long time before speaking: "When the end is crossed, civilization will end the true eternal cycle. No one should live in the past... or sacrifice for the past."

"Alright, you brought me here just to talk about this? Let's get down to business."

"..."

"Since that bubble world is also part of an illusion, you, as a similar being, should know that as well."

"I never knew that May had received systematic acting training, but it is clear that she was very successful."

“You’re different. You can’t hide anything, so you can’t play this role well at all.”

As he spoke, Bai Yan, though still looking ahead, had already part of his consciousness sinking into the depths of his soul.

To date, the four sacred pillars have been integrated into itself, and the power of the four runes no longer remains on the "Gate".

It remains closed, but opening it is no longer difficult.

Once the door is opened, the compressed force will be completely released.

After hearing what Bai Yan said, Kevin let out a sigh for the first time.

It sounds like some kind of liberation.

"You're right. When Mei wants to do something well, there are never any major mistakes."

"The illusion of the world bubble can only exist with the help of some kind of power, and so can I."

"Neither she nor I are the main characters in this smokescreen."

He stared at Bai Yan, trying to read something from the latter's eyes.

Unfortunately, this was not his forte, and he ultimately had to give it up.

Do you know what the cost of this is?

"Some things can't be judged by their cost. It's like someone asking you, if Mei were terminally ill, would you consider whether it would be worth saving her?"

"..."

"It seems I need to be more honest: I agreed to her plan."

"No matter what your actual situation is now, you should continue to carry it out—as long as you still believe in me."

"The only right time, the only right place, and the only right person."

"..."

Kevin closed his eyes.

A moment later, she slowly opened her eyes.

"Okay, what do you plan to do?"

"The answer lies in the riddle itself. You've used all your strength, yet you still don't understand?"

Upon hearing this, Kevin slowly said, "I once asked May, but she said she didn't really understand this power either. And the only person she could understand, Aponia, also said she couldn't understand it. Moreover, Aponia herself said that the facts were completely different from her guesses and experiences, so she abandoned her initial conclusion."

"She doesn't think so either... It seems these two women are both very shrewd, with incredibly sharp eyes."

"?"

"Don't be confused. When the mystery is revealed, you will find that your previous guesses were meaningless."

　1灵yi;泣咝久IV揪“芭“是吗…”

"In fact, I was also very confused about this before I fell into this multiple dream world."

"There are too few clues left by Mei, and too many things to guess."

"For example, dividing the Mu continent into world bubbles and then reconnecting them, or using countless world bubbles to copy a piece of each and then recombining them... The more I think about it, the more outrageous it seems."

Bai Yan smiled, then started walking, admiring the empty void as he went.

Kevin looked at him, his doubts growing deeper.

"So much time has passed, and I still haven't seen Sakura?" Bai Yan stopped and asked, as if he had thought of something.

“May said the makeover was very successful, far exceeding expectations, which is why we chose her,” Kevin said.

It sounded like a completely irrelevant answer, but Bai Yan knew what it meant.

That's why he was so surprised when he received the answer.

"Sakura, you don't have any issues with me, do you?" Bai Yan suddenly asked out of the blue.

"..."

A hint of embarrassment flashed in Kevin's eyes, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although he was expressionless, Bai Yan knew what kind of reaction it was.

—I hope Sakura won't hold a grudge.

“In fact, this is related to Su,” Kevin suddenly said. “He once mastered the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle and hid in the Sumeru Mustard Seed to observe the real parallel worlds.”

"Then I understood, and then I told you what I had discovered?"

"..."

Very well, I'll remember this grudge.

Bai Yan then stood still and closed his eyes.

Deep within the soul, the power of the Four Pillars slowly rippled, striking the eternally existing "gate".

With this impact, a crack gradually appeared in the "door".

Bai Yan's heart stirred, and the fluctuations increased in amplitude and frequency.

The door gap widened, and then it opened uncontrollably.

He opened his eyes.

Mixed feelings.

Bai Yan looked at Kevin: "I thought Sakura created a shackle through her power, which forced everyone, including the Herrscher, into the dream. But I didn't feel that shackle..."

“At first, I didn’t know why Sakura did this, but Aponia reminded me, and after seeing you in person, I understood the reason. Perhaps in Sakura’s eyes, this is a necessary step. I respect her choice.”

"It's truly a series of interconnected layers... Even if it wasn't all planned, it's still quite remarkable."

Bai Yan shook his head, but soon he saw that Kevin's appearance had changed.

Two horns, broken wings.

It's Kevin, the "Karma Demon".

Volume 1: Chapter 253: Because I Want to Try

Seeing that Kevin was ready for battle, Bai Yan understood.

Fight a battle to free others from their shackles.

With his power fully unleashed, he could reach his true limit without any special attire.

Because the "door" has been completely blasted open.

"It's unbelievable that this grand dream could actually help me break free from my shackles," Bai Yan exclaimed again.

“It wasn’t a pure dream,” Kevin shook his head. “As I said before, we were able to find a way to contact you by using that kind of illusion.”

“I know, I mean Aponia and the others.”

"Is this so?"

"And I guess your reason for needing to fight my ghost Kirs in the Death Tower is also to maintain the illusion, right?"

"That's right, but I don't know what it is. It's just that Mei asked for it."

Even after making such a request, she still says she doesn't understand it?

"She said it was ambiguous."

"..."

Bai Yan remained silent.

A moment later, he extended his index and middle fingers with his right hand, forming a mudra.
