Collapse, the Ordinary Daily Life of the Valkyries

"......"

Gao Su didn't argue much about this, while Meiyi scooped up a shovel of lunar soil that Kiana had shot down from the meteor and threw it into the crack.

"The bishop is already holding a meeting regarding the matter of Raiden Mei. With such an enemy, we can no longer stay in this corner of the solar system."

"Restart the Ark Project?"

Bronya leaned on the shovel. She didn't understand why three Herrschers and an indescribable existence had to shovel the soil here with their hands. Isn't this the way the relationship between husband and wife should be?

"Who will be the executor then?"

Kiana shot down a meteor that streaked across the moon, her eyes filled with curiosity. However, her eager expression was genuine. Mei, noticing this, reached out to comfort her.

"Be good, leave this kind of thing to us. Alicia can be considered one of them. As the God of Earth, you should just stay in the solar system."

"Don't give me a chance!"

Kiana angrily shoveled a few shovels of dirt, then glared at Gao Su, who was calm and composed. She shoveled in her hand, making a creaking sound, and then she snapped her fingers, and the cracks on the moon disappeared.

"Alright, let's go back to the base and prepare for the meeting. My aunt's communication has arrived. She said that you have to attend, Captain."

"alright."

Gao Su nodded.

Huang Quan listened to them the entire time as they talked about their own things. 'God of Earth'...? It seemed that such a god was indeed much better than those star gods in the outer solar system.

"There is no need to show mercy to your enemies. You must understand that being kind to your enemies is being cruel to yourself."

Huang Quan was chewing a white peach while talking to Kiana and the others. Her voice was gentle, but her tone revealed a murderous intent.

Kiana nodded:

"You're right. We are the best warriors among the Destiny. We shouldn't be soft-hearted when dealing with the enemy."

"Nothing in this world is absolute. We must defend the dignity of our planet with our lives. To protect it, any price is worth it!"

Then, Huang Quan looked at the starry sky in the distance, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued:

"I've stayed here long enough. It's time to set off. There are still many lives waiting for me to rescue. This is the agreement I made with an unknown guest."

"Are you leaving now?"

Kiana looked at Huang Quan, who was holding the sword of nothingness, and she didn't know what she was thinking. When she heard the question, she turned her head and looked at Gao Su:

"I'd like to spend some time alone with your captain, is that okay?"

It’s not that Huang Quan can’t leave by relying on his own power, but this planet is really too weird.

The tentacles that bound him were now constantly drawing strength from his body and were unable to gather together.

"Ok?"

Kiana and the other two became alert instantly, took Huang Quan aside, and tried their best to persuade her not to fall into the captain's trap.

"I just talked to Him about how to leave. It's not what you think, Kiana."

Huang Quan shook her head helplessly. She really didn't understand what this group of people were thinking. At this time, Kiana put forward her own idea:

"Is it that the years of the solar system's collapse have caused us to fall too far behind, or is it that the people in the galaxy haven't taken us along with them in their evolution?"

She felt mixed emotions. According to what Huang Quan said, the outer solar system, or the entire galaxy, had indeed left them behind due to the collapse. Huang Quan comforted her and said:

"It's not what you think. In fact, in the universe, the development of each civilization is independent of each other."

"Exploration connects the entire universe, and companies are the ones that expand. There are pros and cons, but more importantly, it's a meritocracy."

"Nothing worth doing is easy. Use the phrase 'the impossible becomes possible' as motivation, never give up, and God will reward hard work."

Mei thought of what Gao Su had said to them:

"In other words, someone needs to first step into the outer solar system's starry sea, evolving first and driving the evolution of the rest."

Huang Quan thought of his hometown, Izumo Star, and then looked at the wound on the sword of the Edict of Nothingness:

"Actually, I don't agree with your premature contact with the outer solar system. Premature contact with the outer solar system will inevitably lead your galaxy into a new war."

"This kind of war is cruel. It is cruel because it is not fought with guns or cannons, but with economics, culture, ideas, and concepts."

"There is no day without peace in the universe, only days of relative peace. Even today, no one in the universe dares to say that this universe is peaceful."

"However, as long as you don't forget your original intention, then, I will go find your captain."

Kiana glanced at Gao Su over there, as if sending him some signal with her eyes. Gao Su understood Kiana's thoughts and nodded.

"You won't let me leave on the Skytrain, Captain."

The first thing Huang Quan said when he came to Gao Su was to ask him this question. Gao Su glanced at the three people who were about to have a meeting with Theresa:

"Well, after all, your encounter with the train crew wasn't today."

"In Pinocchio?"

Huang Quan thought of his destination and kicked away a piece of lunar meteorite fragment. Gao Su looked at the deep starry sky:

"Yes, it was a very wonderful experience, worth remembering for a lifetime, Miss Huang Quan."

However, Huang Quan has a different opinion:

"Haven't you changed me?"

Gao Su already had a way to deal with it:

"When you leave this galaxy, everything will return to normal. This is where the past, present, and future intersect. Time is chaotic, a place that even the Star Gods cannot reach."

"Our conversation now may be taking place at a future time point, or it may be taking place at a past time point, in a different place."

Hearing this, Huang Quan sighed, and an indescribable dark light flashed in his eyes hidden by his bangs:

"In other words, as soon as I leave the solar system, everything that happened to me here, and the short time I've spent with you, will become a blur?"

Gao Su could not deny:

"Yes, until you meet us again."

Then, he continued to say to Huang Quan:

"After all, you should be familiar with the butterfly effect."

"What if the Star Train you trapped comes here? What will you do?"

Huang Quan asked back, and Gao Su chuckled a few times, as if mocking her naivety.

Volume 1: Did We Really Defeat Honkai?: Chapter 130: Huang Quan and Gao Su's Private Conversation

"Mei, should the universe be in order or disorder?"

Huang Quan felt a little surprised when she heard Gao Su ask this question, but she also thought that it might be because she didn't understand:

"Given your status, you shouldn't be asking this question. I want to know why you're asking this question."

After finding a clean place to sit down at the lunar base, Gao Su looked at Huang Quan with a calm expression:

"I said a statement, not a question."

"What do you mean? I don't quite understand."

Huang Quan chose to give up thinking directly. Gao Su was not surprised by her behavior, but continued to explain:

"Human society, or any kind of social civilization, cannot be separated from the laws of nature."

"So-called order and disorder are merely the settings that humans, or rather individual organisms, have for their own civilization, or for the civilizations they come from."

Listening to Gao Su's words, Huang Quan thought for a moment and asked:

"On what basis do you say this?"

"This is exactly what Mr. Boshizun wants to know about the mystery of the universe, and even the mystery of all things. Don't you want to hear it?"

Gao Su's words made Huang Quan swallow her saliva. The truth of the world was like a tempting cake, waving at her.

She could feel her heart beating wildly, making sounds of desire.

However, just as Huang Quan was about to speak, the rationality born from human beings facing crisis pulled her back:

"No, I don't want to hear it."

"Well, that makes sense."

Gao Su nodded. Huang Quan's behavior was consistent with the actual situation. Huang Quan looked at Gao Su with a hint of fear and contemplation:

"You're scary."

"Really? It's just that you think I'm scary. Your perception of me comes from your attitude towards me. It's terrifying if you think about it carefully, Mei."

Gao Su's words dispelled the fear and doubt that had risen in Huang Quan's heart. Then, He continued to speak to Huang Quan:

"What exactly is truth? There doesn't seem to be a clear answer to this question, largely because the definition of truth is subjective."

“Simply put, something is considered true only if it is generally accepted that it is true, and vice versa.”

“Thus, the so-called standard of ‘truth’ is not absolute, but a product of collective consciousness.”

"You're just afraid that what I say will go against your understanding and your established values."

Huang Quan did not deny Gao Su's answer, but chose to avoid answering and raised another question:

"The company attaches great importance to resources."

"I know, but so what? The company isn't monolithic. After all, humans are always good at internal strife."

Huang Quan couldn't help but shudder. Compared to the star gods who were restricted by their fate, this one was much more powerful:

"Do you want to start another war within the company?"

"It's common sense that living things are renewable resources. And, as I've said before, I always determine my attitude towards others based on how they treat me."

These words, on the contrary, made Huang Quan alert:

"But you brought the train here."

Gao Su chuckled:

"Do you think this will have any impact? Even the star gods' gaze can't penetrate the imaginary tides. What good will it do even if the train lays down star tracks?"

"A railway track sunk to the bottom of the sea, where the risks far outweigh the benefits, will never be used by anyone."

Volume 1: Did We Really Defeat Honkai?: Chapter 131: The Gap Between Us and the Star Gods

"I came here, did you control my fate? Including the train crew, according to reason, we should not be able to come here."

Gao Su chuckled at Huang Quan's question, then leaned back, supported himself on the ground with both hands, looked at her, and shook his head:

"No, I have always let things take their course. But there is someone else."

"Do you think I will believe this?"

In response to Huang Quan's question, Gao Su took out his photo from his pocket again and handed it to her:

"You'll understand if you take this with you. Just consider it a favor for me, okay? Mei."

"........"

Huang Quan looked at Gao Su and fell silent. After a period of psychological struggle, she took the photo of Him from Gao Su's hand:

"it is good."

"Thank you."

Huang Quan was a little at a loss as to what to do with Gao Su's unexpected politeness. After all, it was the first time in her life that she was thanked by such a person.

"Oh, please, don't look so suspicious. It's the superiority of the Star Gods and the Messengers that makes you feel uncomfortable, right?"

Gao Su waved his hand and said humorously, to which Huang Quan did not deny:

"What's wrong with this?"

"No, not really. It's natural. As part of the natural world of existence, it's not surprising for human society to have such a situation."

Huang Quan's eyes showed regret. If possible, she wanted to discuss with the captain for a long time:
