Do you think this world is serious?

Both of these kinds of knowledge require immense power; otherwise, they are difficult to acquire.

It is worth mentioning that forcibly promoting the fusion of two world bubbles will trigger a violent "rejection reaction" and can easily lead to the failure of the fusion.

However, there is a solution: maintaining a close relationship with the "important figures" within the world bubble can reduce the rejection reaction during fusion.

The closer the relationship, the weaker the rejection reaction will be.

As for "important figures," they refer to people who have important connections with the Etheric Singularity.

Chen Xiuming delved deeper into this knowledge and realized that it was originally intended for the three Shaniat sisters, but perhaps because the three Shaniat sisters were not strong enough, World Bubble gave it to him instead.

"A gift from the world bubble..."

Chen Xiuming sighed softly. He could be said to have benefited from the Shaniat sisters' fame, as he was treated equally by the world because of their close relationship.

The azure ocean began to ripple, the sound of the waves layering upon each other like a strange and magical melody.

"I gaze at the sky through the starlight, so high and distant compared to Earth?"

"I've divided the sea, and await my guests with the uninteresting wind."

"Look! A subtle visitor, welcome to my abode!"

Chen Xiuming was slightly taken aback, then his expression changed, and he immediately moved away from the ocean.

The singing wasn't an illusion, and...

He is very familiar with this song.

Before the transmigration, this was the character theme song for the planetary Honkai Beast Janna; now, it seems to possess a captivating and special magic that easily makes people succumb to its allure.

Hearing the familiar song again was like finding a key piece of a puzzle, filling in the crucial parts of Chen Xiuming's two vague nightmares and allowing him to instantly recall the details of the nightmares.

"Jana inside this bubble..." Chen Xiuming stared intently at the figure that had silently appeared on the surface of the sea, his face grave and his body tense. He muttered to himself in a voice only he could hear, "She should be dead by now..."

The enormous corpse seen in the first nightmare was the corpse of Janna herself.

Janna's body is over four thousand kilometers in diameter, almost comparable to the diameter of an asteroid.

Generally speaking, even Honkai Beasts cannot continue to survive after being dismembered.

But Gana doesn't seem to be in this category; even though her body was dismembered, her consciousness didn't disappear.

The beautiful figure on the sea, though seemingly far apart, moved to the shore in just a few breaths, smiling at Chen Xiuming.

Gana was dressed in an old-fashioned blue and white nun's habit, her light blue hair cascading down to her calves, and her deep, ocean-blue eyes staring directly at Chen Xiuming.

The old-fashioned nun's habit is very loose, and may even look a bit bulky.

However, as the sea breeze blows, the detailed curves outlined by the nun's habit clinging to her body reveal that Janna's figure is both slender and voluptuous.

"Nice to meet you—or perhaps this is our second meeting. My name is Janna. I was once a planetary Honkai Beast burdened with the mission of destroying humanity, but that's all in the past. Now, I am..."

Janna paused for a moment, seemingly thinking of something, and sighed with a hint of helplessness, a slight smile playing on her lips, "Just a lonely soul drifting in the endless deep sea, about to perish."

"I'm Chen Xiuming." Chen Xiuming took a deep breath, calming his nerves. "Is there anything you need me to do?"

Janna wouldn't come to him for no reason, and based on his experience with the first nightmare, Chen Xiuming was certain that Janna had something to ask of him.

"I hope you can help that child get out of this predicament."

"That child refers to..."

Chen Xiuming suddenly had an extremely ominous premonition, and at the same time had some inconceivable guesses.

Gana smiled without saying a word, stepped onto the beach, and left a trail of footprints on the clean sand.

After a moment, she stood in front of Chen Xiuming and gently answered his questions.

"My beloved Kiana, also known as the 'Herrscher of the End'."

"And what does liberation mean...?"

"Killing her will free her from this predicament."

Janna spoke softly, as if she were talking about something trivial.

Chen Xiuming's eyes widened suddenly, his face filled with disbelief, and he involuntarily pointed at himself, "Me?"

I'm fighting the Herrscher of the End?

Eh?

real or fake?

Chen Xiuming wondered if he had missed a few words, or if he had accidentally "traveled" directly to the final battle, so that he had to face the strongest life form created by the Honkai, the "Herrscher of the End," with his weak human body.

However, Gana seemed oblivious to Chen Xiuming's disbelief, reaching out to pull Chen Xiuming's right hand to stroke her cheek, maintaining a very intimate gesture.

"Please do not worry, you are that child's only hope for liberation—I have stolen a tiny fraction of the power belonging to 'The End' at the cost of my life, which can protect you from that child's attacks."

Chen Xiuming seemed to be thinking about something, then asked, "Is it the pattern on my back?"

Janna's smile brightened, and she gently stroked Chen Xiuming's cheek, continuing with delight, "That's right, that's a tiny fraction of the power of 'The End.' While it doesn't grant you the full power of a Herrscher of the End, it allows you to be temporarily considered 'one of theirs' by that child, and gives you the power to kill that child."

Even with Janna saying that, Chen Xiuming didn't have much confidence in killing the Herrscher of the End.

42. Use the "End" power to kill the Herrscher of the End.

Janna's hands were smooth and delicate, yet icy cold, as if they had no warmth at all.

Not only that, her cheeks, though smooth to the touch, were also very cold.

“That child has been trapped in a cycle of despair for tens of thousands of years, and I can’t bear to see her continue to be trapped in that cycle.”

"That being said, but..."

Chen Xiuming looked conflicted; the situation was now pretty clear.

If you want to leave the World Bubble, you need to deal with the Herrscher of the End first; otherwise, it will be difficult to leave the World Bubble safely.

After much deliberation, he sighed helplessly, as if resigning himself to his fate, and took the initiative to inquire about the detailed plan.

"what should I do?"

"It's simple—I will activate the 'End' power within you, allowing you to temporarily emanate the aura of 'End'."

Although the Herrscher of the End destroyed human civilization with her own hands, this was not the girl's original intention.

However, having already transformed into the Herrscher of the End, she was unable to control her body before the destruction of human civilization, and could only watch helplessly as her body uncontrollably destroyed human civilization.

When human civilization was completely destroyed, she regained control of her body, but it was too late. The bloody scene of destroying human civilization with her own hands kept echoing in her mind, plunging her into despair and even driving her insane.

Because the "Herrscher of the End" is a perfect life created by Honkai, she is no longer considered human, but rather an existence similar to immortality. Therefore, even if she is determined to die, she cannot commit suicide.

The Herrscher of the End has a unique judgment mechanism; only humans can become the targets of the Herrscher of the End.

The "End" power that Janna obtained at the cost of her life has been imprinted on Chen Xiuming's back. As long as the golden patterns are fully activated, he can temporarily conceal his human aura with the aura of "End," but he cannot hide it from the girl who is so desperate that she is numb.

"In a world where humanity has been wiped out by its own hands, if a human who has not died suddenly appears, how do you think that child would regard you?"

"...Redemption?"

Chen Xiuming gave a tentative answer.

Janna's smile grew even brighter as she said, "That's right, and it's not just about 'redemption'—you will become the pillar that child continues to live, and the 'hope for atonement'."

"So, you don't need to kill the Herrscher of the End..."

Chen Xiuming breathed a sigh of relief, the invisible pressure on his shoulders vanishing instantly.

However, before he could relax for long, Janna personally shattered his illusions.

“No, killing that child is an essential part, after all…” Janna’s smile faded slightly, “If that child’s ‘body’ doesn’t die, once the aura of the ‘End’ power disappears, that child will lose control of their body and relentlessly hunt you down.”

"..."

Chen Xiuming fell silent immediately.

Gana smiled and released Chen Xiuming, then strolled leisurely behind him.

"But you can rest assured, the child won't attack you until the aura of 'The End' disappears. You just need to kill the child then—with your current strength, only the power of 'The End' can kill that child who is the Herrscher of the End."

Is this really feasible?

"Of course, this is the last chance."

Gana's right hand quietly slipped inside Chen Xiuming's clothes, stroking the golden patterns on his back, her tone tinged with sorrow.

"I don't have much time left. If you come a few days later, you might not see me again."

Janna sighed softly, her tone tinged with envy, "It's a pity I'm not human, otherwise I could be the only pillar that keeps my beloved Kiana alive."

"What happens after I kill the End? What should I do then?"

Although Gana described it as easy, Chen Xiuming did not actually find it easy.

If any link in the chain goes wrong, he will have to pay with his life.

"That child will rely on you, who retains the power of 'End,' to continue living, just as I said you will become the 'pillar' for that child to continue living."

"……it is good."

If what Janna said is true, then as long as the process goes smoothly, Chen Xiuming will gain the help of the "Herrscher of the End".

Even with a very high probability of having incomplete powers, she is still an invincible "Herrscher of the End".

"Thank you for helping that child find relief."

Gana expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Chen Xiuming, though a hint of sorrow lingered in her eyes.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, after activating the golden patterns for Chen Xiuming, she will exhaust her last bit of power and perish completely.

"I'm now activating the 'End' power for you. The rest is up to you."

Janna's tone was like entrusting her son to someone, but she didn't give Chen Xiuming a chance to answer. In an instant, a huge amount of Honkai energy surged into the golden patterns on Chen Xiuming's back, actively activating the golden patterns while maintaining their stability.

However, she was already gazing into the distance, her longing gaze seemingly transcending space, seeing the white-haired girl lying quietly in the ruins of the academy.

As the golden patterns were fully activated, Janna's form became extremely ethereal.

As she was about to perish, she seemed to sense something and suddenly looked at the shadow at Chen Xiuming's feet, as if she had discovered a chance to continue living. The sorrow between her brows was instantly replaced by joy.
