Collapse, Kaslana's Way of Survival

Chapter 223 Inhumane Plan

"You don't agree? Why?"

Feeling the strong sense of rejection from Kainuo, Fu Hua frowned.

"Does this require an answer?" Kainuo asked.

"I don't know exactly what kind of illusion you want to create to help Kiana grow spiritually, but I know it will definitely make Kiana feel terribly uncomfortable."

Fu Hua's plan will definitely succeed, Kaino believes this. After all, although Kiana is usually eccentric, she absolutely cherishes her friends and family, and would rather suffer herself than hurt them.

As long as the pain is deep enough, the regret in the illusion can be brought out. In order to avoid such an accident, Kiana will definitely use all her will and try her best to defeat the Herrscher of the Sky.

But what happens after the plan succeeds?

Kiana, who had suffered, would certainly no longer be as happy and lively as before, and would become as mature and steady as Bianca is now - although Kiana was always naughty and mischievous on weekdays, and although he would occasionally feel grateful for Bianca's understanding, if possible, he certainly hoped that Kiana could always maintain her current lively appearance.

How could he not want his sister to be happy every day! ?

When he was a child, he could only watch Bianca being seriously injured and was powerless to do anything. Now he not only possesses the power of the Six Paths but also inverts a world bubble. Could it be that he wants his sister to overcome the difficulties at the cost of painful growth?

"I can understand your reluctance, but the current situation is that we have no other choice." Fu Hua sighed.

"I don't like creating illusions, which is almost the same as directly tampering with memories. But if we don't do this, the end result will inevitably be Kiana's loss of control and the outbreak of Honkai."

Kaino gritted his teeth and rubbed his hair, looking extremely irritated.

He had to admit that he really couldn't refute Fu Hua's words.

Seeing this, Fu Hua sighed and said nothing more, intending to give Kainuo some time to calm down.

But not everyone wants to settle down at this time.

"Heh, even though you've usurped the power of God, you're still just a bunch of ants who can do nothing!"

Perhaps realizing that his life was safe, or perhaps feeling swelled by the annoyance of the people before him, the Herrscher of the Sky raised his lips, a look of delight written all over his face.

There was teasing and sarcasm in her eyes as she looked at the three of them, and her tone was full of mockery.

"Actually, I suggest you try creating an illusion for the vessel. I also want to know what she'll look like after going through so much pain."

"Wail the injustice of fate? Vent her anger on you? Pull the trigger herself and end my life and hers? ... Or, as you wish, launch a powerless resistance against me?"

"Actually, I really want to see the last scene. After all, that would definitely be interesting, wouldn't it?"

"Xilin's sorrow and despair, the expectations of her family and friends, the malice of all humanity—a girl, forced by you to bear these burdens for the rest of her life, exhausted all her strength to fight the demon king who would destroy the world. And then, with a bang, all her illusions burst like bubbles."

"I'm really looking forward to your expressions then, the resentment and despair that will appear on your hypocritical faces—ah!"

After punching the Herrscher of the Void in the face again, Xiao Shi stood up and looked at the Herrscher of the Void with extreme anger.

"Ahhhh, I've had enough of her mouth! I don't care if she holds a grudge or not, I'm going to beat her up right now!"

After saying this, Xiao Shi covered the Herrscher of the Void's mouth with one hand and began to punch and kick him like a tyrant. This time, neither Kainuo nor Fu Hua tried to stop him.

Frowning as he looked at the angry and ferocious face of the Herrscher of the Sky who was being beaten violently, Kayno's eyebrows jumped and he suddenly turned his head to look at Fu Hua.

"What's wrong?" Fu Hua noticed Kainuo's actions.

Kainuo did not answer her question directly, but glanced at the Herrscher of the Sky first, and then leaned over to start a private call with Yu Duchen and Fu Hua.

"I haven't studied the nature of consciousness in depth, so I'll ask you, Fu Hua," Kainuo said. "Herrserker of the Void and Kiana, were they first born from the good and evil in Sirin's will and then developed their own personalities, or did they first acquire their own personalities and then choose good or evil?"

Fu Hua frowned when she heard that.

"...I'm not too familiar with the philosophical debate about whether human nature is inherently good or evil, but I'm sure you don't want to hear about it. Speaking of these two, Kiana turned to goodness because she was treated kindly, while the Herrscher of the Sky, deeply sensing the malice in Sirin's memories and having no one treat her kindly for decades, turned to absolute evil."

Kayno nodded thoughtfully, the light in his eyes growing brighter. "So, the Herrscher of the Void actually has the potential to turn towards good?"

"Didn't you ask this question just now? I also refused it very clearly." Fu Hua looked at Kainuo with a strange look.

"The Herrscher of the Void's evil has already taken shape. She will treat everything with the utmost malice. In this situation, her malice cannot possibly—"

Fu Hua paused, frowned, and looked up at Kainuo.

Kaino turned his head and looked again at the Herrscher of the Void who was biting Xiaozhi's hand and trying to fight back.

"Although I've never used it, Yu Duchen can actually modify other people's memories, right? If that's the case, then it stands to reason that modifying the Herrscher's memory shouldn't be impossible too."

Hearing this slightly inhumane idea, Fu Hua frowned and began to wonder whether it was feasible.

Previous civilizations undoubtedly did not do this, but that was due to many reasons.

The Key of Consciousness was created relatively late, and after the Ruler of Reason, only the Ruler of Corrosion was successfully captured. It was also strange that most of the Rulers of the previous civilization seemed to lose their identity once awakened, and were willing to destroy humanity even at the cost of their own lives... All of this was the reason why the previous civilization did not make such an attempt.

But in this era, the Herrscher of the Void before us is different!

Yu Duchen was in her hands, and there was even a living Herrscher of Consciousness and Herrscher of Corrosion next to him.

The Herrscher of the Sky has undoubtedly been subdued now, and it wouldn't be difficult to kill him if one really wanted to.

For some reason, the Herrschers of this era all have independent selves, and the Honkai consciousness that constantly tempted the Herrscher of the Sky had long been seen through by her.

Thinking about it this way...it seems that it is not impossible to give it a try?

Fu Hua's eyes lit up slightly, and she nodded at Kainuo, "It's worth a try!"

If this succeeds, then the remaining Herrschers can also join the human side!

The two smiled at each other and exited the private chat, then looked at Xiao Shi who was still struggling with the Herrscher of the Sky.

Chapter 224 Newborn

"Hiss, it hurts! Are you a dog? Let me go!" Xiao Shi put one foot against the head of the Ruler of the Sky and shouted at her.

"Mmmmm, Mmmmm! Mmmmm!"

The Herrscher of the Void stared at Xiao Shi with her eyes wide open, and she refused to let go of her mouth that was biting Xiao Shi's hand, and her two hands also tightly gripped Xiao Shi's thighs and refused to let go.

Kaino couldn't help but cover his forehead and sigh.

After all, they are two Herrschers, but they fight like children. It's really enough.

He walked forward and pried open the hands and mouth of the Herrscher of the Sky and froze her directly with ice. Kainuo helped Xiaozhi up, and then told her the purpose plan through private messaging with Yu Duchen.

"Wow, modifying memories?" Xiao Shi's eyes widened. "Even I, the Herrscher of Consciousness, have never done such a thing? You two are the Herrschers of Consciousness, right?"

"Don't look at me. I'm not the Herrscher of Corrosion." Kainuo shrugged and pointed at Fu Hua. "And it will be Fu Hua who will modify the memory. The two of us just need to disable the Herrscher of Void and let Fu Hua do whatever she wants."

"Your choice of words is really strange, like a villain in a comic book who is about to do something to an innocent girl." Xiao Shi said, rubbing his arms.

Kainuo was stunned after hearing this, and the look he gave Xiaoshi became a little strange.

"What comics do you read?"

Xiao Shi blinked and turned his head away as if he didn't hear it.

"Stop chatting and let's talk business."

Fu Hua urged Yu Duchen to join the conversation among the three.

She looked at Kainuo with a serious expression and her voice was also serious.

"Although we've decided on a plan to modify memories, how to do it is a question that requires careful consideration. If the memories we create have too many loopholes, the Herrscher of the Void might be able to see through them and hide in the dark to conceal the Houkai."

"Not only that, the content of the memory also needs to be carefully considered. If our attitude towards her makes her sad or differs from her memories, it may become a factor that triggers the collapse."

Seeing Fu Hua's experienced look, Xiao Shi couldn't help but ask, "How many people's memories have you modified?!"

Fu Hua was stunned, and hesitated, "I haven't counted."

Although she disliked modifying other people's memories, she had always been forced to do so during her waking hours over the past thousands of years. Furthermore, compared to how she manipulated other people's memories, she had tampered with her own memories countless times.

"Since you have sufficient experience, is there any safe way?" After thinking for a while, Kainuo asked Fu Hua directly.

"Any plan has the risk of failure." Fu Hua shook her head. "But the Herrscher of the Void hasn't truly awakened yet, and Kiana often stays in Saint Freya. If anything unexpected does happen, we'll be able to stop it in time, so the risk will be much smaller."

"As for the plan to modify memories... I suggest not modifying them and just deleting them all."

After truly realizing that the Herrschers of this era had the possibility of having their memories directly modified, Fu Hua's thinking became broader.

She looked at Kainuo and Xiaozhi and explained to them.

"I've said before that the battle between Kiana and the Herrscher of the Void was a battle of wills and convictions. If all memories were lost, the Herrscher of the Void would be no different from a baby, and would absolutely be at a disadvantage in the struggle for power."

"More than that. Because she's a blank slate, her future memories will be entirely factual. In this situation, as long as we guide her properly, she can develop a healthy perspective and realize that the possibility of her memories being altered is infinitely close to zero. Even if she does realize this and regains her memories, it's still unclear which will dominate, the new personality or the old memories."

"Hey, I think this is great." Xiao Shi said excitedly, "Although this is our first meeting, I have a feeling that Kiana will be a very caring girl. If she educates the new Herrscher of the Sky, his values ​​will definitely be correct!"

"...I always feel like when you say it, it's like a mother raising a child, even though it might sound similar." Kainuo scratched his face. "But then the threat of the Herrscher of the Void will be almost gone, right?"

"We also need to guard against the possibility that Honkai consciousness will reconnect with the Herrscher of the Void and remove the effects of Yu Duchen."

However, having said this, Fu Hua was not as serious and nervous as before.

"But there's no need to worry about that."

"Since the Herrscher of the Void, a complete beginner, can't compete with Kiana in terms of power, I will teach her some knowledge about the Grand Void Sword Qi later. Thanks to the Herrscher's terrifying Honkai Energy, she will definitely make rapid progress in this area."

"As long as she can successfully master the Grand Void Sword God, there's no need to worry about the invasion of the Honkai consciousness. The Grand Void Sword God can directly kill the Honkai consciousness. I've experimented with this."

"In short, the future is bright!" Xiao Shi said with a smile.

Kainuo couldn't help but twitch his lips.

It was obviously a normal and nice thing to say, but for some reason he felt something strange when Xiao Shi said it.

After exiting Yu Duchen's chat room, Kainuo removed the ice from the Herrscher of the Sky, then nodded to Xiao Shi and Fu Hua.

"Shall we start now?"

"Let's do it now without further delay." Fu Hua said softly.

The Herrscher of the Sky, who had just escaped from the ice, shuddered twice, gritted his teeth, and looked at the three people with sneer.

"So, have you finally decided to use the illusion on that girl? I'm really looking forward to seeing the regret and despair on your faces when the time comes."

Looking at this girl who still didn't know what would happen to her, Xiao Shi shook his head with pity and didn't continue arguing with her.

Kainuo didn't say much, but put one hand directly on the surprised and angry face of the Herrscher of the Sky.

"Wait, what do you want to do!?" She widened her eyes, looking uneasy. "I'm warning you, if you kill me, that girl named Kiana will die!"

"Ah, yes, thank you for that. If you hadn't reminded us before, we might have killed you."

Kainuo's thanks are sincere.

If Kiana really died because of their carelessness, then everyone in this room would probably live in the shadow for the rest of their lives.

But he would not let the other party go just because of this little gratitude.

Black and red lines emitting a hint of mist appeared on Kayno's hand, then spread to the face of the Herrscher of the Sky at a speed of one piece, and quickly spread to her entire body.

Almost at the same time, the angry expression on the Herrscher of the Sky's face froze for a moment, and he couldn't make a sound.

Seeing this smooth scene, Kainuo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then nodded to Fu Hua and Xiao Shi behind him.

Without saying anything, the two of them put their hands on the Herrscher of the Sky's head, squeezing her head full.

Kainuo could not observe the field of consciousness. In short, it didn't take much time for Xiaoshi and Fu Hua to let go of their hands and breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.

"It's over." Fu Hua wiped the nonexistent sweat from her forehead and looked at Kainuo with a strange look in her eyes. "You are unexpectedly talented in eroding consciousness. The expected instinctive resistance from the Herrscher of the Void didn't occur, and Xiaoshi didn't even do anything."

"Yes, yes, Immortal Chiyuan, you are right!" Xiao Shi pursed his lips, but his expression did not show the joy of a successful plan.

"What kind of organization is this Destiny? I've seen Xilin's memories and she suffered a lot of abuse as a child. No wonder she's so violent. It makes me want to help her."

"If her revenge was limited to the Destiny Laboratory, many people would stand on her side."

"But it was only the Destiny Laboratory that abused her. She also killed many Valkyries and tens of millions of humans, and even wanted to spread the disaster to all mankind. I can't say whether there is the instigation of Honkai consciousness here, but we must stop such a situation." Kainuo couldn't help but twitch his mouth after glancing at Fu Hua who was looking at her warily behind Xiao Shi.

Fu Hua, you are too vigilant. Xiao Shi was just speaking up for Xilin. He even spoke up for her during his period.

Xiaozhi nodded thoughtfully, "That's indeed the case!"

The vigilance on Fu Hua's face gradually disappeared, and she turned to look at Kainuo.

"Her memory has been wiped clean, we can go back."

Letting go of his hand and looking at the Herrscher of the Sky babbling like a newborn baby, Kainuo felt a little worried.

"Is it okay to leave her here?"

"...It's not so easy to die in the realm of consciousness. The Taixu Sword God can kill the opponent because it has a mental effect. Speaking of the Taixu Sword God, Kainuo, can you tell me where you learned your Taixu Sword Qi? Did you learn it from Xiaoshi?"

A hint of curiosity appeared on Fu Hua's face.

She didn't dare to ask before because she had to hide her identity, but now that they have confessed to each other, she is naturally very curious about the source of Kainuo's martial arts.
