Collapse, survive

"You had a strange dream. It sounds a bit familiar. Don't worry, it might be a synesthetic dream. When dreams overlap, people can meet in the dream world and even start a completely new life."

"As for what you saw, there is never a shortage of coincidences or fate in the world. You were able to see those scenes probably because you and I were too close, and my outflow touched your thoughts, connected your dreams, and thus hatched 'signs' from your wishes."

"Of course, thinking about it carefully, if that's the reason, the dream is quite wonderful. It's another operation that I can't do myself, but can be done through everyone else."

After her afternoon nap, Raiden Mei found Fang Jie and told him about the strange dreams she was experiencing.

Fang Jie reassured her not to worry, and seeing Raiden Mei's confused expression, he offered a more localized explanation:

"Mei, if you don't understand, just think of it this way: this is the Paradise of the Past, where the power of consciousness is already incredibly active, plus..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but just gestured with his lips towards the front.

"Mei, I'm so hungry. What are you whispering about? I want to hear too. Fang Jie, you're not allowed to bully Mei."

A Kiana has spawned.

She had been eyeing him for a long time. If Fang Jie hadn't taken Himeko away from the Paradise of the Past to play 'games' on his space island, Kiana might have come to ruin things.

Sure enough, Raiden Mei just approached Fang Jie, accepted his invitation, and took the opportunity to tell him about her strange dream.

Kiana came along and ruined everything.

Mei is her cook, and Fang Jie often gives her snacks, which are all good things.

With her sapphire-blue, watery eyes blinking, Kiana reached out her claws from behind Raiden Mei, just like when she kidnapped Mei in her Herrscher form, "Mei, if you're being bullied, just blink, and I'll help you, I'll glare at him for you."

As she spoke, she glared fiercely at Fang Jie.

"?"

"??"

Fang Jie pulled her over in an annoyed manner, hugging her like Kiana hugs Raiden Mei, ignoring her blushing: "Which eye of yours saw me bullying Mei? I like her too much to ask."

Kiana pouted: "Don't worry about the telepathic connection between pretty girls. Wait, what did you just say? You're not allowed to like them, you pervert..."

What's wrong with you, Se?

Fang Jie chuckled strangely and gave her a deep kiss.

Kiana let out a strange, unwilling cry. This guy, this guy... this guy still smells of Himeko-sensei on him! She screamed, unwilling to accept this explanation.

"Stop arguing and stay put."

Fang Jie turned on Kiana without warning, pinning her down to prevent her from running away, and continued to address Raiden Mei's confusion:

"Among the many possibilities, there is also your own reason, Mei. 'Prayer' is a very strong 'driving force'. Strong desires and wills can transcend time and space and touch incredible realms. In addition, the Paradise of the Past is different from before. The power of consciousness and data is extremely active, climbing towards the world level, and even reconnecting to the World Serpent to share the branches and leaves of the Imaginary Tree for nourishment. Moreover, there is me and Kiana by your side. It is mainly Kiana who may cause you to see 'me' in your dreams."

Looking at Raiden Mei, who seemed to understand but remembered it perfectly, Fang Jie gave the diagnosis:

"What you see is both a dream and reality. If we go a step further, well, it's an eternal dream."

Yes, in Fang Jie's view, Raiden Mei's experience was that she unconsciously activated the Great Dream of Eternity, experienced the 'Other Self in the World' in the dream, and then returned to reality after waking up.

That dream clearly wasn't hers; it belonged to the underworld.

Mei's 'memory' fluctuations were undeniable; she had indeed come into contact with the world of her dream and was radiating a sense of nothingness. However, the subsequent effects were filtered out by the special properties of the solar system and were swept away by Fang Jie.

She was right to come to Fang Jie.

"Desire, will, dream..."

Raiden Mei was having a hard time keeping up; ever since she truly came into contact with the truth of the world, Honkai always managed to pull off some kind of mess.

Is this still the real world?

We've probably become magical girls, with all sorts of weird and wonderful superpowers...

The chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) girl Raiden Mei is filled with a desire to make sarcastic remarks.

Okay, she recalled Fang Jie's previous question—that aliens exist and the world is both materialistic and idealistic.

"I don't quite understand, but it should be a good thing, Mei."

Kiana understood and, with her natural talent for magical girl magic, accepted the concept.

That's probably what qualifications are.

Fang Jie looked at Raiden Mei, who was clearly a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) but still pretended to be serious: "Mei, you need to face your heart. Since you have accepted my invitation, you will encounter many things that break through your worldview in the future. Don't worry about the unknown. The pioneers never allow such things to exist. Even magic has its rules and principles. Just observe and think more, and you will get used to it."

Sometimes, Fang Jie also wants to complain about whether Yinhe is reasonable or logical.

But he himself is an exception who has to cheat to get on the road. If you can't build the second floor before laying the foundation, there's no point in going to the Milky Way.

Even if you're a nobody, you're still just a lowly soldier.

"Yes, I understand."

Taking a deep breath, Raiden Mei tried to imagine herself as a sponge, capable of absorbing a lot of moisture.

The result was just a slight rise and fall of his chest when he took a deep breath, which made the idiot in Fang Jie's arms stare straight into his eyes.

So delicious!

You scoundrel.

Fang Jie told her not to look directly at him and to hide the fact that she was looking.

So she became a delicacy. Kiana pouted, twisted her body, and looked somewhat smug, just as smug as Mei was when she faced herself.

For some reason, Fang Jie was much more enthusiastic when he returned this time, and he kept holding her and wouldn't let go.

Hmph, my charm is truly irresistible.

"Wait, what invitation? Why didn't I receive one?"

Kiana suddenly discovered the blind spot.

Fang Jie ignored her and patiently coaxed Raiden Mei: "Of course, your way to the galaxy will be through the Star Train's latest nameless passenger exclusive pioneering technology, which provides a remote reflection, allowing you to travel the galaxy without leaving home."

"Therefore, we still need to study the rules of Honkai well, which are very complex. The touching, distortion, and control of the rules are quite profound."

"On the edge of the solar system, a girl named [Suo], who can be considered a god, set up her own rules. In those worlds where [rules] were implanted, some of people's wishes would even become reality. As long as a wish was made, it would be answered and eventually turned into energy to be harvested by the creator of the rules."

It is no exaggeration to say that once Sa breaks free from the constraints of the solar system map and goes to the Milky Way, it can completely transform into an alternative end of reincarnation.

Sign a contract with civilization to 'grant your wish,' and ultimately...

Just like Silver Wolf's account, it was hacked and then disappeared.

"Our solar system is truly teeming with talent."

Before Raiden Mei could say anything, Kiana couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

Because of Fang Jie's honesty, Kiana can understand how many monsters and demons are around her. It wouldn't be surprising if Yang Chaoyue suddenly appeared in the World Bubble and beat Spain to its knees.

Fang Jie also exclaimed, "All the wise men have gathered, and all the upright officials fill the court."

It can only be said that the human species has too much potential. As long as we dare to think, dare to do, can do things, and don't self-destruct, creating another world is a piece of cake. Of course, what we are discussing here is only the level of creating another world at the level of a leaf on the tree of imaginary numbers.

Check out Ah Ruan's bag.

The Genius Club is a gathering of stars, and there are always people who want to compare the creativity of these geniuses—Ruan Mei’s pocket is among the top.

It is said that she hoped to carry the universe with her, but ultimately had to seal it away because the dimensions inside the pocket kept expanding; Aruan's pocket spent its last days in a shop window, and Stephen Lloyd regarded it as an important companion, probably because of some special complex - he never revealed to anyone that he wanted to crawl into the pocket to hide from his family.

Destroying the world is even simpler; when a traveler on the path of destiny cannot control their own power at will, they are often very likely to destroy the world.

For example, cheese is the end of the world: A nanny robot once had a sudden inspiration to turn rich and delicious cheese into cheese to satisfy its little master's seemingly endless appetite.

Then, the savory cheese had an even more ingenious idea: it grew on its own.

The end result was that even with the nanny robot and its owner working at full capacity, their digestion rate couldn't keep up with the cheese's growth. So they had to ask a passing mourner for help and escape to another star system in a gondola.

Even now, there is still a galaxy in the Milky Way that is completely stuffed with delicious cheese, leaving not a single gap. It should be considered as having been destroyed.

This story is very educational: it teaches us not to waste food.

Fang Jie fed Kiana delicious cake, not wasting a single grain of rice.

The dream about Raiden Mei ends here for now. Unless it recurs in the future, Fang Jie suspects that he showed her information about 'Yellow Springs', which led to some kind of connection.

After all, the trio that Raiden Mei saw in her dream even included Pam, so it must be those three no matter how you look at it.

With the Star Core Essence Pearl as a precedent, Fang Jie was uncertain whether Huang Quan could achieve what Ji Zi could only do with the help of Taiyi's Dream, but uncertainty itself is a kind of certainty.

"Don't worry too much, Mei. Come with me. I'm going to reflect a body onto you."

"I want me too!"

"You can't, Kiana, you're not allowed to participate."

"No, why, no—"

"Because then you won't need to travel anymore, you can just stay at home and be a couch potato."

As he spoke, Fang Jie grabbed Kiana, who was still eating while Yuan Hua was eating, and the group entered a place that was actually similar to the Paradise of the Past, his Destiny Space, which was also the Holy Mark Space, an ever-expanding universe.

This place is self-contained, like the final moment when Kevin re-weaves the world, or the origin of the Stigmata Space, a finite real number in an endless torrent of imaginary numbers.

It's been constantly enriching its content, like a cosmic home decor guide, with stars, the moon, the sun...

Fang Jie arrived at a Valkyrie dormitory that wasn't luxurious but had a very ordinary feel to it.

Himeko collapsed right here.

……

……

The alarm clock on the bedside table went off, its sound as eerie as a magnetic field.

The babbling sound woke Himeko Murata from her deep sleep. Her long eyelashes fluttered, and she opened her eyes to see Fang Jie sitting on the bed with his back to her, gazing out the window at the dark sun.

His expression was serious and earnest, as if he were gazing at someone who might have gotten lost and wandered here, and thus he pondered.

Fortunately, that person didn't get completely lost; they're probably still lost in the Milky Way.

As Himeko awoke, the silent solemnity around them dissipated, and Fang Jie wore a smile.

"Are you awake? Does your back hurt? Does your waist ache?"

"It's sore, it hurts, and I'm so tired, you beast."

Himeko's voice carried a hint of languor from just waking up.

"Who insisted on fighting me to the death? Turns out, it was a weakling."

Fang Jie chuckled in response, smelling the pleasant scent of the shower gel emanating from Ji Zi. It was the same Fang Jie who had ravaged her, who was now giving her a good wash before she could sleep soundly.

Himeko rolled her eyes cutely, her earlobes turning slightly red. She pretended not to know who had been shouting earlier, and moved a little closer, tucking her sideburns behind her ears and exposing her long neck to someone's view.

She is very knowledgeable about dialects.

She also enjoys displaying her sexuality in front of him.

As for being beaten to his knees because of this...

In any case, she won't be the one who lacks masculinity in the end.

The older sister who killed but didn't bury was also quite mischievous. What could Fang Jie say? He could only defeat her even more fiercely.

"What are you looking at?"

"Watching those two idiots get swept away by the spacetime storm, they're like a meteorite in space, just like Kars. I'm looking forward to the moment they start crying and making a scene again..."

Fang Jie was also very malicious.

"what?"

Ji Zi didn't quite understand, but fortunately she pushed herself forward, so she couldn't see what Fang Jie was looking at, but she could see his phone.

The image that Fang Jie saw was projected there at just the right time, and it was remarkably accurate...

Uh, Kiana and Raiden Mei went on a space trip.

This is Kiana's first step in conquering the galaxy and becoming the strongest Valkyrie.

"This……"

Himeko didn't need to hear the details; she only needed to see Kiana's strange scream to know that they were playing around again.

"You idiot, don't bully her too much."

She decided to punish both sides equally.

"Bullying? This is called getting used to it in advance, or rather, recovering memories."
