I am the former civilized hero.

Thinking back to the time, his biggest wish was to become Yingjie and occupy a spot in the hibernation chamber. For this purpose, he approached Mei and Kevin specifically. He was a typical scoundrel.

During the final battle, he was responsible for shouting 666, and then Kevin chopped the Herrscher of the End down to the point of crashing, and then he quickly crawled to the hibernation chamber, and lived like this for the next years.

Then in the post-civilization, I can show off. After all, I am the senior brother of the Immortal Fu Hua, and I am more familiar with the plot. Otto can also be my younger brother. I can say some cool lines like "My punch is the result of 50,000 years of skill. Can you block it?"

A super soldier of the former civilization, with a very high survival rate while being full of energy. If Kiana wins, my treatment will not be worse than Fu Hua. If Kevin wins, based on our friendship, he will definitely get a first-class seat.

When I think of it, I feel relaxed and carefree...

"Hey, what are you thinking about? That smile on your face is so evil."

Suddenly, a hand waved in front of his eyes, waking Ryan from his fantasy. He turned around awkwardly and saw Mebius' confused face.

That's right, if you just live a lazy life, you can only meet in the eternal paradise. After all, the highest level of survival is to do nothing and just live a lazy life. The more world lines you change, the more you will be entangled in cause and effect.

Ryan actually knew the answer a long time ago, but at this moment he couldn't control his fantasy, so he gently spread his hands and said, "I'm deducing another path."

"Hmm? What road?"

"It means doing nothing, avoiding problems, avoiding the butterfly effect, preserving oneself with absolute selfishness, and at most helping to advance the Spark Project."

Mei and Wei Liwei, who were discussing the details, also stopped chatting and turned their heads to look. They were confused at first, wondering why they were thinking about such a meaningless thing at this time, but as smart people, they quickly caught the key words.

The butterfly effect? ​​Sure enough.

Everyone had long speculated about Ryan's identity, because he didn't hide it very well and had revealed clues long ago.

Ryan smiled frankly. This was not a secret in the first place. Even if he said that he was the incarnation of the Cocoon of the End, the Herrscher above the Herrscher, Mei and the others would believe it and then do what they were supposed to do.

But there was nothing to do in the last fifteen minutes, so he didn't mind pretending to be cool, so he showed an unfathomable smile.

"Do you want to know what fate really looks like?"

"Let me guess first. Human civilization will definitely be destroyed, and then my Spark Plan will come in handy to help post-civilization survive the end?" Mei spoke directly, then shook her head slightly and slowed down her speech:

"Well, it's not just that simple. Prometheus will definitely work, and that child is also a prerequisite. Of course, with my personality, I won't put my hope on the post-civilization. Those of you who survive will definitely each lead a plan, with Kevin as the leader. I will definitely die, because this is the only way to remove his last shackles. Under his obsession, the possibility of mankind crossing the end is more than 80%. As for how to cross it, it depends on whether the people of the post-civilization are good enough."

The smile on Ryan's face slowly froze. It was really pointless to guess riddles with smart people. Mei even guessed who would survive.

"Alisa will definitely die, Eden doesn't want to live even if there's a chance, Qianjie definitely doesn't want to live in humiliation, Ying's sister's survival rate is very low, and it's hard to say about people like Velvet, Mobius, and Aponia. It seems that I have an idea of ​​who will execute the plan."

You were peeking at the script, right? You must be a platinum master when writing online novels.

Ryan had the urge to hand her the pen and let her write, but he knew that with Mei's intelligence, it would not be difficult for her to deduce the future after eliminating the factor of herself.

"Hey, why shouldn't I say anything? In terms of survival rate, my ability is the most suitable. And if you die, I'm the best successor based on your knowledge and wisdom!" Mobius was not happy. When it came to leaving behind a legacy of civilization, he was the most suitable person.

With my methods, post-civilization has been transformed at the primitive stage. I will create a new race.

"It's just a hunch. Why are you so excited?"

“How can scientists trust their intuition?”

"It's just a meaningless guess. Do I have to waste time on real deduction?" Mei snorted coldly and pointed at the man next to her. "Instead of holding me back, you might as well ask Ryan if he regrets it. This is the safest way for him. He will probably survive the end of the world unscathed, find a few wives in the post-civilization world, and have a bunch of children."

I think the last sentence is totally unnecessary. You are such a sinister woman. I just wanted to show off, but you set a trap for me.

Ryan felt the gazes beside him gradually sharpen, and laughed awkwardly: "Don't listen to Mei Hu, this kind of thing is out of control. If you take chances, I might be the first one to die."

"That's not necessarily true. Before the fusion warrior plan succeeds, you are one of the strongest humans, and your mortality rate will be very low." Weiwei, who had personal experience, added.

"Yes, the power is definitely first-class, and your brain can go to the last step to fight against Honkai, wouldn't it be easier to use it to save your life?" Mebius put his hand on Ryan's shoulder and asked slowly: "No wonder you are so imaginative now, you won't really regret it, right? Who are you going to have a bunch of children with?"

Kiana? Mei Raiden? I'm more open to everyone.

"Hey, you are really thinking about it!" Mebius decisively noticed Ryan's hesitation.

Ryan had no way to explain, so he just spread his hands and said, "It's no use regretting now."

"No matter what, you are not allowed to have this idea anyway!"

This is a bit unreasonable. Didn't you just say that you would survive? Wouldn't that be more to your liking? Oh no, if I were a jerk, Mebius would not have a deep conversation with me.

Ryan was just thinking casually, just like deducing the plot when writing an online article, but since Mebius asked, he would also ask himself before the end.

If I could go back in time and return to before the Chiba Academy incident, what would I choose?

After hesitating for a second, he already had the answer.

"No, whether I have the memory of this moment or not, if I go back to that moment four years ago, I will still bravely take that step, because the road of 'exploration' can only move forward, and I can't tolerate myself staying where I am."

"Just because of that fate?" Mebius was a little disappointed.

"The path of pioneering made me take that step, and only if I take that step can I deserve this destiny. It's a bit like the paradox of 'chicken and egg'." Ryan's eyes lit up. It was just a meaningless chat, but he felt like he had an epiphany.

Yes, if you really want to be a slacker, you don't even need to have a destiny. No matter how good you are at calculating, a long time will always leave countless pains. If you want to be happy, I can just run away when I encounter a Honkai beast for the first time. Why do I need to practice martial arts?

My family background is that of Fire Chaser. Even if human civilization is doomed to be destroyed, I will be one of the last to die. I have enjoyed enough in the past few decades.

He didn't feel anything when he was walking on the road, but now looking back, Ryan found that he was not cut out to be a slacker, or if he was, his character would have been annihilated in the imaginary space long ago.

Was I lucky to meet Akivalli, or was he attracted to me? Was it fate that chose me, or did I respond to fate?

The answer was clear and concise, and it made Mebius smile.

There is no need to ask further questions. Ryan's expression proves everything. It is a desire for the unknown and a determination to break through all obstacles. There is no way this man will take the path of escape.

"You are indeed someone I value. With my pride, how can I allow my other half to be mediocre and useless? Just like vixens and fat women, being gentle, handsome, or even strong is useless."

This requires a kind of heroism. How can ordinary people possibly bear such expectations?

"Okay, enough small talk, we should start preparing."

The projection outside the ship turned into the deep sea, and they had arrived at Haiyuan City. Ryan took the initiative to end the topic.

"Do you think it makes sense?" Mei called him, and Ryan turned sideways, revealing half of his face.

"Looking back at the past is the only way to face the future. These fifteen minutes are worth it."

Ryan replied with a smile that at this moment, he didn't need comfort or persuasion from anyone, he just needed to look back on the past.

Asking and answering questions to yourself will help you sort out the past and no longer feel confused. Since that road did not exist from the beginning, then just follow this road that you have walked through by overcoming all obstacles.

Keep going with determination.

"Ryan, with your personality, are you really so obsessed with crossing the end?" Mei suddenly asked in a low voice, which puzzled Mebius next to her.

Isn't it for this goal that everyone has been busy for so long? But when I think about it carefully, I feel that there are some problems.

According to what Mei said just now, when executing the Spark Plan, apart from the question of who the protagonist is and in what form the crossing is done, humans also have a great chance of crossing the end.

Seeing several eyes focused on his face, Ryan was stunned for a moment and spread his hands: "If possible, I hope to surpass the end."

One word made a world of difference. May suddenly became serious, while Mebius simply rolled his eyes.

"Pfft, I really want to record this for you so I can laugh at you later. You even surpassed the end. The probability of crossing it is low anyway."

"Alas, how can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan?"

"Get lost, you are addicted to pretending, aren't you?"

While the two were bickering with each other, Mei remained serious. She felt that Ryan was serious, but it was too unbelievable, so she did not interrupt.

As the mechanical arm secured the hull, the Hyperion rocked gently, and the door to the conference room opened. Ryan, who had just let Mebius go berserk, was the first to walk out and saw that the corridor was crowded with people.

Eleven detachments and 668 fusion warriors filled the corridor. This was the force that Ryan had tried his best to preserve, and it was of great use in the battle against the 'beast'.

It was because of their hard work that Ryan was able to seize the opportunity and make a profit. It can be said that this was better than a loss in business.

The end, how many can survive?

Ryan didn't know the answer to this question either. Maybe it would be better than the original world line, or maybe it would be worse. He had cut off the retreat route with his own hands. How many people were left alive in the original world line?

At least at a glance, you can only see some tension. Some people even have smiles on their faces as if they have seen a comedy.

"It seems I don't need to give you psychological counseling."

"Am I as fragile as you think?" Ryan glanced at the girl who suddenly jumped to his side.

"Yes, after all, Ryan is also a human being. He will be nervous when he is under pressure, and he will be afraid when he is nervous. This is the same for everyone else." Alicia's voice was not loud, but it was deafening in this corridor.

"But if everyone can see your back, you won't panic. And you can feel that everyone is following you, which makes you feel at ease. If you can lean on each other like this, you won't be afraid of anything."

The words were like swords piercing into people's hearts. After a moment's contemplation, everyone realized that they made sense.

Why did the Herrscher say that Ryan was no different from humans and repeatedly wanted to kill him? Why could he be put aside and human civilization be destroyed first?

The same interests, the same goals, the same values, this is the community with Ryan as the core. It is difficult to separate them, and the only way is to use the greatest pressure and eliminate them together.

"Aili, you are really suitable for psychological counseling. Your perspective on problems is really novel."

"I am a smart and beautiful girl who is loved by everyone."

"Then please do me a favor and give me a push."

Alicia was confused at first, then she smiled, raised her fair right hand, and gently pushed Ryan on half of his back.

"go"

The force was not strong, and even if Ryan did not resist, it could only push him a small step, but he felt a vast and boundless force hitting his heart.

Hope, nostalgia, expectation, love... indescribable emotions burst out, lifting the right foot and placing it firmly.

Firm and steady, as if breaking through the last fog, those gray eyes traveled through the deep sea and the sky, went to the endless starry sky, and landed on the moon.

"Everyone, please follow me and move towards the finish line together."

No one answered, and Alicia immediately followed, followed by Mebius, Qianjie, Ying, Hua, and Kevin...

In the silence, only the sound of leather boots stepping on the ground echoed, indistinguishable from each other, all in unison, like one person.

A person, an organization, a civilization, is heading towards its end.

march!

Chapter 7: Ai Li's Social Death Plan (K)

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. All Ryan has to do is to let this "arrow" shoot out without hesitation and with unstoppable force.

Even if this means death, sacrifice, and destruction, this responsibility is borne by him, and there is no need for Abonia to use the commandments.

Willingly marching towards the end rather than having a group of cannon fodder puppets surrounding you, perhaps the latter would be better in terms of effect, but Ryan prefers the former.

Everyone's destiny is controlled by himself. He is responsible for finding the way out and then walking in the front.

The time is too short and the construction progress of Haiyuan City is less than 60%. Of course, there is no need to build it now. Through the long corridor bridge, you can see that the port is already full of supplies.

Various Honkai energy engines, various weapons and power armors, the end also represents the end of various plans. No matter whether they are completed or not, just take them out and use them first, even if it means spitting on Honkai's face.
