Collapse, how did I become the Devil King of Destruction while playing a game?

"This is to save humanity."

"Also, to avenge the Honkai."

"I need to awaken you."

Chapter 336 is unimportant

"A Thousand Calamities"

Aponia arrived outside the Firemoth base and saw Thousand Calamity.

She came to Qianjie's side and followed his gaze to the desolate and barren land before her. There were almost no tall plants on the land, and from a distance, it was mostly bare.

There were no birds flying in the sky, and even the clouds were few and far between.

This is the real world, a world that has already been destroyed.

Aponia bent down and grabbed a handful of soil. The soil was so barren that she couldn't even smell any earthy aroma.

Aponia stared blankly as the soil in her hand slipped to the ground.

"What do you want?" Qian Jie's voice was flat and emotionless, his gaze coldly fixed on the desolate world before him.

Aponia didn't answer, nor did she know how to answer, because she didn't know why she had come to see Qianjie.

Since she and Qianjie woke up in the real world two days ago, she and Qianjie have remained silent about everything.

Honkai, Fusion Warriors, Herrschers, Destruction of Civilization.

To Aponia and Thousand Calamities, these things were like stories, because they only knew about them in their dreams in the virtual world. They always thought that it was just a dream, that the experience in the dream was not real and had no sense of reality, just like seeing a person with the same name as themselves.

But they did appear in this so-called real world.

"Is this... really reality?" Aponia couldn't help but ask. She remembered everything from childhood to adulthood: going to school, making friends, being scolded, growing up, graduating. She even remembered her parents' birthdays and the date they would be returning to Canghai City a few days later, as they were finishing their trip.

Aponia was thinking about the elderly and children in the nursing home, the dates they arrived, their lives and experiences there, their laughter and sorrow... These were far more real than any experience in a dream.

"do not know"

Qianjie spoke stiffly, but when Aponia saw his clenched fist, she understood that Qianjie was actually far from calm.

"How are Xiaoyu's grades?" Aponia suddenly asked. She was referring to a middle school girl at the sanatorium.

Qianjie's hand unconsciously relaxed.

"Her grades are pretty good. The high school entrance exam is coming up soon, and she should be able to get into the high school section of St. Freya Academy."

"Didn't you attend Xiaoyu's parent-teacher conference before? Is she doing well at school?"

Aponia sat casually on the ground, completely unconcerned about the dirt and dust.

"fine"

Qianjie's voice sounded somewhat relaxed and happy, and Aponia even saw a slight smile on the corner of Qianjie's mouth.

"Xiaoyu has made many friends at school, and my worries about whether anyone would bully her haven't happened."

Qianjie sat on the ground and said calmly.

"You often pick up and drop off Xiaoyu, and many teachers and students at her school know your fierce appearance. No one will dare to bully Xiaoyu then."

Aponia smiled slightly as she spoke.

"I've never taken off the mask, so why do I look so fierce?" Qianjie touched the mask on his face.

"Is it a feeling? I remember when we went to pick up Xiaoyu together before, I saw a lot of students who seemed afraid of you."

But I didn't do anything.

"When you stand at the school gate, the students shrink back like quails."

Aponia covered her mouth and laughed.

Qianjie looked up at the sky and fell silent.

"...What will happen to those children in the future?"

Qianjie received no response from Aponia. He turned around and saw that Aponia, who had just been laughing, was now silently shedding tears, one tear after another falling from her face.

“They…they…” Aponia sobbed uncontrollably.

That night, the elderly and children in the nursing home witnessed Aponia and Qianjie being shot and killed by Kevin. Before Aponia lost consciousness, she saw the children and the elderly rushing angrily towards Kevin. However, after killing Aponia and Qianjie, Kevin immediately set himself on fire and committed suicide.

Aponia had no idea what kind of psychological trauma those children would suffer after witnessing her and Thousand's deaths. It might even be an indelible scar in their hearts, requiring a lifetime to heal from the shadows of their childhood.

Aponia hated Kevin intensely over this matter.

As for Qianjie, after he woke up, he punched Kevin. It wasn't that he only hit him once, but that half of Qianjie's body was frozen by Kevin.

Then Kevin started giving a long list of reasons. In a fit of anger, Qianjie broke free from Kevin's ice. However, even in his anger, Qianjie still had some rationality and simply left with Aponia.

The events in the real world were told to Aponia and Qianjie by Mei and Mebius, including their plan to kill Yingjie in the virtual world, which they devised and directly told Aponia and Qianjie.

Qianjie silently comforted Aponia, but at that moment, they heard footsteps behind them.

"What are you doing here?" Even without turning around, Qianjie knew who was coming.

Mebius did not answer, but simply walked over and sat down next to Aponia.

"Didn't you go kill someone again with those two bastards?!"

Qianjie's tone was very impolite and extremely angry. Kevin was the main culprit who killed Aponia and Qianjie himself in the virtual world, while Mebius and Mei were accomplices. How could Qianjie possibly give Mebius a good look?

Do you think I like it?

Mebius replied coldly.

"Humph......"

Qian Jie snorted coldly but said nothing more. He and Aponia actually knew Mebius, but not in the so-called real world, but in the virtual world. Mebius had once brought her parents to live in Aponia's sanatorium, but after Mebius's parents recovered, they went to teach at St. Freya Academy.

The three then fell silent, and Aponia gradually regained her composure.

"This is the real world, but perhaps that world is reality too."

Mebius's voice reached Aponia and Thousand Calamity's ears.

The two of them didn't react, but Mebius continued talking.

"The true 12th Herrscher, through some unknown method, created another reality, a world without the Honkai, and we lived in that world before the Honkai."

"But for some unknown reason, the 12th Herrscher brought Kevin back to this world that has been destroyed by the Honkai, and also allowed him to travel back and forth between these two worlds."

"Kevin killed us so that all the Fusion Warriors could unite against the Twelfth Herrscher."

Unfortunately, these are just speculations.

Qianjie chuckled, not knowing who he was laughing at, and he didn't want to respond at all.

Aponia remained unresponsive, silently gazing upon this desolate world.

Mebius sighed softly.

"Actually, you are not important, I am not important, May is not important, and Kevin is not important either."

The 12th Herald implies, no, it has been explicitly stated, that Mebius and Mebius could reach this conclusion with almost no thought.

"Alicia is the key to everything."

"So, it's okay for you to treat everything you're experiencing now as a dream."

Mebius really wanted to say that as long as they united, they could defeat the 12th Herrscher, but unfortunately, her reason and common sense told her that there were no miracles in this world, and the 12th Herrscher didn't take humanity seriously at all.

P.S.: I've been sick these past two days, sorry. _?

Chapter 337 Continuing to Go to School

Morning, St. Freya College dormitory area

Alicia slowly opened her eyes, but she looked somewhat tired. Dark circles had appeared on her once delicate and beautiful face. Alicia hadn't been able to sleep well for the past few days.

"Sigh..." Alicia sighed as she looked out the window.

However, the view outside the window looked somewhat blurry and unreal because her room's windows were fitted with a full 13 layers of bulletproof glass. Naturally, one couldn't expect to see the view outside clearly with such thick bulletproof glass.

Alicia got up, changed her clothes, and was about to leave the room to wash up when she pressed the doorknob but couldn't open the door.

Only then did Alicia remember that the room door had also been replaced with a heavy-duty blast-proof door.

After she pressed the fingerprint lock on the doorknob, the door slowly opened.

"Is it really necessary?"

Alicia looked helplessly at her sister's room.

The villa where she and her sister lived had already been renovated. If Alicia hadn't stopped her, Alicia really wanted to spend all the money she earned online to turn the villa into a top-notch shelter, the kind that could withstand missiles.

Even if it weren't now, the villas and dormitories where people currently live still have a very high level of protection.

Alicia thought it was really unnecessary, but Ali obviously didn't think so.

At that moment, the blue-purple room door opened, and Ellie appeared with a messy, disheveled hairstyle. She looked like she hadn't woken up yet.

"Good morning," Ellie said with a yawn.

"Why have you been waking up at the same time as me these past few days?" Alicia asked curiously.

"The alarm clock went off as soon as you opened the door."

Ellie lay down on the living room sofa and answered weakly.

I was just sleepy because I was woken up by the alarm clock early in the morning.

"You're being too cautious," Alicia said while combing her hair.

“You can’t be careless,” Ellie replied.

Alicia fell silent and let out a soft sigh.

After a long while, once she finished washing up, Alicia also went into the bathroom. However, Alicia didn't have the chance to get ready in the morning like she used to.

Alicia also lay down on the sofa, her long pink hair cascading down like a waterfall.

“...Why did they do this?” Alicia’s voice was filled with pain and sorrow.

From the day she was attacked, the terrorists began to kill other innocent people, including Mebius, Velvi, Aponia, and Qianjie.

Except for Velvi, who lived in the heavily guarded St. Freya Academy, the other three were all killed, and the terrorists who killed them committed suicide.

Alicia didn't know why those terrorists were doing this.

Those who were killed were all innocent people.

In addition, the victims' relatives and friends were also severely affected, including many elderly people and young children.

Alicia and Ali also donated a lot of money to help them, but the dead are gone and will never come back.

"I don't know," Ellie came to Elise's side, reached out and gently hugged her to comfort her.

Ellie really didn't know what Kevin and the others were thinking, although their actions were exactly as Ellie had expected.

But there are actually many other options, and it's not necessary to be so intense and crazy.

Report it directly, leave a suicide note, and come back. Then you won't need to worry about these things anymore. Let others have their headaches. This way, you can continue to live a peaceful and stable life.

While the world destroyed by the Honkai may have some value, it's actually not much, because this world doesn't have Honkai energy. The technologies developed based on Honkai energy are just for show; they're completely meaningless.

After exploring a few more times and finding that other people can commit suicide to get there, you can just relax and become a couch potato.

As for slicing, only countries with extremely low moral standards would do that.

However, Kevin and his companions ultimately embarked on the path of killing the Fusion Warriors of this world to awaken their own existence in the Honkai world.

After comforting Alicia for a while, Alicia realized that it was almost time.

"We should change our clothes and go to school," Ellie said, picking up Alicia.

"Um"

Alicia nodded softly.

After changing their clothes, the two sisters left home to go to school.

St. Freya Academy is currently in a semi-closed state. Both entering and leaving require strict security checks. In addition, there are visible and covert patrols around the academy 24 hours a day, and there are also people inside the academy responsible for inspection and security.

The level of security here is almost equivalent to that of protecting the nation's leader.

The events at St. Freya Academy have spread throughout the entire world, and people all over the world are paying attention to it. Any small problem will be magnified infinitely.
