Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

Seeing this, Kiana became embarrassed first, and her eyes showed a hint of pity as she looked at Anna.

Judging from how adeptly this eldest daughter of the Shaniat family took the blame, she couldn't even imagine what kind of life she had lived before.

"Alright, let's talk about these things later."

Patting Kiana on the shoulder, Shihen smiled with relief. "It's rare that Peggy is back from Coral Island too, let's go have a meal together..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shihen felt a weak consciousness envelop him, causing him to quickly gather his power and accept this wave of consciousness manipulation.

And at the very moment his consciousness enveloped him, the scene before him also changed.

Amidst the drifting clouds and mist, a towering and majestic mountain suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

His gaze quickly shifted, and countless scenes, some ordinary and some magnificent, flashed past him. Finally, the image settled on a huge blue stone, where a gray-haired girl sitting upright on the stone opened her eyes and cast a detached glance at him.

"I'll be waiting for you on Mount Taixu."

The moment the girl's gaze fell upon him, a faint, ethereal melody quietly rang in Shihen's ears.

"mark?"

Noticing the boy's absent-mindedness, Kiana immediately cried out in concern.

"Oh...it's nothing, it's just..."

With one hand supporting his forehead, Shihen swayed slightly and leaned against the white fur ball, his face showing just the right amount of fatigue.

As an ordinary person, he should feel somewhat uncomfortable when suddenly receiving a large wave of messages from Shibao.

Just as he should have been pondering what had happened, another gentle voice rang out: "Shihen, it's me, Fu Hua."

Don't be nervous. The Herald of Knowledge just conveyed a message to you, and she is right beside you now.

Try to find a way to evoke more emotions in her; I'll do my best to help you.

A clear realization flashed in Shihen's eyes, and he immediately sighed, "It's just that we can all be together, but our class monitor is still wandering alone."

I wonder how she's doing every day, whether she's eating and resting on time...

As he spoke, Shihen winked at Bronya.

"Huh? I didn't realize this kid cared about me so much~"

Upon hearing this, Fu Hua's face showed a hint of surprise, which quickly turned into a bright smile. "However, he would never guess that I eat and sleep well every day on Mount Taixu, living a much freer life than he, the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance!"

"Huh? Did we just mention the class monitor?"

Unaware of the intricacies involved, Kiana couldn't help but ask, her blinking blue eyes revealing a clear sense of bewilderment.

On the other side, Duck Duck, having received the signal, nodded slightly and immediately echoed, "That's right. Although there were some misunderstandings before, the class monitor is still the class monitor after all."

The thought of us enjoying delicious food while our squad leader is wandering alone made Bronya feel that even the best food would taste bland.

Even if she couldn't see the Herrscher of Knowledge, since the boy had already given the signal, she would act according to the pre-prepared plan.

"Pah! You're the one who's homeless!"

"I call this traveling the world, vanquishing demons and monsters; I'm doing great things to help all living beings and save humanity!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Hua immediately denied it.

If it's something that immortals do, can it still be called wandering?

“But you’ve always stayed on Mount Taixu.”

Fu Hua added.

Fu Hua: "..."

Is Yu Duchen toxic? Why does she keep undermining her?

Beside him, facing the questioning gazes of Kiana and the others, Shihen still pretended not to see Shi Bao and sighed softly, "Bronya is right. Even if some changes have occurred to her, the class monitor is still the class monitor."

I hope she can come back soon and fight alongside us again, just like before…

"..."

Upon hearing the boy's words, Fu Hua couldn't help but recall her life in St. Freya, a hint of nostalgia appearing in her eyes.

Even within the vast array of her memories, those short three years were extraordinary.

For a moment, Fu Hua couldn't help but feel an urge to appear at this very moment and give the boy and the others a big surprise.

But then she remembered her previous infusion of consciousness, and Fu Hua forcibly suppressed the thought.

She had promised to stay at Mount Taixu. If she suddenly reappears now... where will she put her face?

It's okay to meet the boys and the others a little later, but we absolutely cannot lose face!

"Cough cough! As expected, these guys still care about me. They can't even eat properly without me."

"In that case, I'd better go back and prepare early; I can't look too shabby, can I?"

Clearing her throat, Fu Hua could no longer suppress the smile on her lips.

For her, nothing was more joyful than being valued as Fu Hua.

Fu Hua: "..."

She felt that the Herald of Knowledge had an excessive amount of self-awareness.

Ignoring Fu Hua's inner thoughts, Fu Hua only gave the boy a final mental suggestion to hurry to Mount Taixu before retreating and leaving the warship.

Chapter 138: White Boy's Taixu Chess Game

In the land of China, a hundred miles away from Mount Taixu, a silver floating warship is speeding through the sky, tearing through the sea of ​​clouds and leaving a long trail in its wake.

Inside the warship were Shihen and the 4.5 Herrschers currently serving in Anti-Entropy.

Since Shi Bao had given him a hint to hurry to Mount Taixu, after explaining the situation to Einstein and the others and leaving Peggy with a bunch of overtime quotas, Shi Hen hurriedly set off with Kiana and the others.

"...In conclusion, the basic logic of the Law Enforcer is that they mistake themselves for the class monitor, so the goal of our operation this time is to persuade them."

The goal is to make the Herrscher of Knowledge realize her true identity while avoiding excessive stimulation that could push her to the brink of collapse.

If the plan goes smoothly, there is a certain probability that a battle can be avoided.

Inside the combat readiness room, Shihen solemnly explained to everyone.

By making combat a backup option, he was able to participate in the operation, despite his delicate and frail physique as the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance.

Otherwise, it would have been like that time on Coral Island. If it weren't for Night Owl's sudden intrusion, he would never have gotten close to the battlefield of the Herrscher-level.

This is a sense of self-awareness that the weak should have.

As a leader, he can be weaker, but knowing this and still insisting on going to high-energy battlefields... that's just dragging the team down.

"I understand the logic, but why is Anna here?"

Upon hearing the boy's explanation, Kiana nodded slightly, but her gaze towards the other white-haired girl in the combat preparation room instantly became wary.

As the boy said, the key to this operation lies in love and bonds, so the other party, who is a strategist, may not be unable to play a role far superior to a Herrscher.

But... Anna and Fu Hua aren't even close at all, okay?

If that's the case, is it really necessary to bring this Herrscher of Ice along?

"Woo..."

Meeting the scrutinizing gaze of the white fluffy ball, Anna immediately lowered her head.

"Because there is still a possibility of combat during this operation."

Shihen glanced at the overly humble girl beside him, rubbed his temples, and said, a hint of helplessness creeping into his eyes.

Whether as a member of the Schariac family or now as the Herrscher of Ice, Anna could have acted more arrogantly and confidently.

However, the other party still acted weak and vulnerable, as if she still thought she was just an A-rank Valkyrie.

They are really too easy to bully.

With a silent sigh, Shihen's gaze lingered on Wendy for a few more moments.

If bringing Anna along was for combat reasons, then Wendy's boarding was somewhat influenced by Theresa's personal motives.

However... even though Wendy wouldn't be of much use without regaining the power of the Herrscher of Wind, considering the girl's overly intense training recently, Shihen finally agreed to Theresa's request to bring Wendy along.

As the third leader of Anti-Entropy, he should not neglect to care for any Herrscher.

"Well……"

Listening to the boy's words, Kiana frowned and began to think with her not-so-developed mind.

"Alright, although the possibility of an accident is not high, we should still be vigilant."

In this world, not everything can go as we expect.

Shihen smiled and said, gently smoothing the white-haired ball of hair at its temples.

"Okay, I know~"

Kiana pouted and said, feeling the warmth from the boy's fingers, her attitude immediately became obedient.

"..."

Watching the two of them interact in this almost habitual way, Wendy couldn't help but bite her lip, and a hint of resentment appeared in her eyes.

She and the boy were feeding each other fruit just yesterday...

Having long been accustomed to this scene, Bronya tilted her head and said, "Captain Hen, are you worried that other factors might interfere with this operation?"

Bringing all of Anti-Entropy's Herrscher-level combat power just to guard against a Herrscher of Knowledge is truly an exaggeration.

Moreover, according to the analysis of the abilities of the Herrscher of Knowledge by Einstein and others, numerical superiority is actually meaningless to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Especially for those with inner flaws, the power of the Lawbringer is virtually unsolvable.

Therefore, rather than saying that the boy was wary of the Law Enforcer, it would be more accurate to say that the other party was on guard against someone else.

"Being more careful is never a bad thing."

Without denying Bronya's guess, Shihen smiled and said.

beep—

Almost the instant the boy finished speaking, the warning sound of the airship suddenly rang out.

[Warning! Warning! Unidentified flying object is rapidly approaching!]

At the very moment the warship's alarm sounded, an overwhelming and terrifying force suddenly descended, engulfing the entire warship and causing it to inevitably plummet to the ground as if it were carrying a mountain on its back.

Anna's body was also pulled down by the sudden increase in gravity, and her beautiful eyes widened in shock: "This power... is Chen Tianwu!"

Having once clashed with Night Owl, the Herrscher of the Stars, she knew very well that this power to arbitrarily rewrite the laws of gravity originated from him.

Swish!

He quickly summoned the Star of Eden to restore the gravity in the combat preparation room to normal, then frowned and shouted, "Kiana!"

"clear."

Kiana responded immediately, transforming into her fiery form and disappearing from the spot through a suddenly appearing golden wormhole.

Although she may act like a little girl when she's with boys, once she gets into battle, Kiana is always the most trustworthy one.

boom!

A deafening roar resounded, and the gravitational field enveloping the floating warship vanished instantly, barely halting its descent.

The next second, a projection screen unfolded in front of everyone, showing the confrontation between the two Herrschers outside the warship.

……

"Night Owl! What is your purpose in attacking us!?"

If you leave now, I can pretend this never happened, otherwise…

Looking at the gray-haired man standing in mid-air in front of her, Kiana shouted coldly, and a blazing longsword quickly materialized in her hand.

Unlike during the Fifth Honkai Impact, she is now at her peak and could easily handle a Herrscher of the Star.

"Herrscher of the Void, there's no need for such bluster."

Undeterred by the girl's words, Night Owl gently shook his head and said with a resolute air of despair, "You and I should both know that I have no choice but to back down now."

Even if he harbored no resentment towards the Herrscher of the Void before him, once he became a pawn in Welt White's hands, he had long since lost his freedom.
