Collapse City, the beginning of the production of the anime version of Collapse 3

"Why do I feel that when Boss Kevin mentioned Sister Mei, Brother Su's tone changed."

Paduo scratched her head. Cats are very good at observing people's expressions. Once they find that something is wrong, they will retreat behind the crowd.

"Are you jealous?"

Sakura said jokingly.

"Sister Ying... Sister Ying, Boss Kevin and Brother Su are both... both boys!"

The innocent Padu had never accepted the rotten girl side of herself, and after hearing Sakura's bold words, her beautiful eyes widened and her voice began to stutter.

"Hmmmm~"

At this moment, Ying did not have the cold temperament in the plot. Instead, she looked a bit like a pink-haired fox that had eaten fried tofu.

"Sister, we still have children, how can you say such things?"

Ling's face flushed and she was in a panic.

Ying curled her lips and complained inwardly.

Ling and Padu are still too unstable. Didn’t they see that there was no expression on Grace’s face?

Teacher Hui Shi had an innocent look on her face, but she was still complaining in her heart that Sakura's willpower was not strong enough, and she only said this much.

Kevin and Sue looked at each other again.

Somewhat disgusting.

The two people quickly looked away.

Originally they thought it was nothing and just considered them good brothers. Even after seeing the plot, they didn't feel any waves in their hearts. But after hearing what Ying said, they reacted and it seemed that something was really wrong.

The emotion in Mei's eyes was no longer just suspicion, but also deep vigilance.

[“Hey, Su…what’s wrong with you? You didn’t have this attitude when I mentioned her before.”

Even the innocent Kevin could tell that something was wrong with Su's tone.

"Because at that time, you had not yet gradually turned into Mei's [Shadow]. Haven't you... noticed this yet?"

Su was already giving a clear reminder.

Kevin, however, didn't care at all. He thought Mei was a genius. Since someone had to step forward to lead everyone, if that person was Mei, at least he could follow Mei, which would be much more reassuring than groping on his own.

Su looked at Kevin quietly.

"(But... once you choose to [Follow], you will no longer be able to [travel] with her...)"

Kevin didn't hear Su's inner voice, but all the audience heard it.

"(How miserable you will be when that happens.)"

Sue asks what Kevin answered May.

Kevin scratched the back of his head shyly.

"Hehe... well... actually, it's hard to understand why I'm so lazy at this moment. I'm just going to tell you!"

"But her response was very strange... She told me... [If you can be a hero to one person, you can be a hero to everyone]."

"Su, what do you think this means?"

The memories end here. 】

Most of the time, the audience saw a cold and indifferent Kevin. It was not easy to see a sunny and cheerful Kevin. Although this memory was very warm, it still made them feel upset.

Su was right. Kevin had gradually become Mei's shadow. Once he chose to follow her, there would be no possibility for them to go together again.

Listening to Su's voice, for some reason their thoughts were drawn back to the inheritance chapter, which was the final battle on the moon. Mei didn't hold on until Kevin came back, and didn't even see him for the last time.

[Great, he's still alive... Too bad... I won't be able to see him again.]

Also, the tear Kevin shed when heading to the shelter turned into ice crystals.

A real knife, a sharp knife, a knife that penetrates into people's hearts.

The film never presents the protagonist's misery to the audience, but rather lets the audience recall the scenes themselves through some tiny details, thus achieving...

"..."

Kevin was looking at the sunshine, thinking of his cold appearance 5 years later after being ravaged by the collapse.

They didn't know what kind of willpower Kevin had to persevere, the quantum sea that had not seen the light of day for thousands of years, the misunderstanding of his best friends, the resistance of his descendants, and so on.

He sat on the throne like a lonely king.

Fighting against the collapse has become a mental seal that binds Kevin tightly.

Everyone in the Golden Courtyard was immersed in a sad atmosphere, and Kevin had a confused look on his face.

If he remembered correctly, this kind of conversation was indeed very familiar. It was the topic he and Mei talked about on their first date.

The problem is, he never talked about it with anyone else.

How did Yaqing know this?

Su's eyes were wandering.

The dormitory in college was for three people, so when Kevin was packing his clothes and getting ready to go out for the first time, Su and Yaqing guessed what was going on and followed him secretly...

[After the memories ended, Su couldn't help but sigh that even if there was no collapse, other things would appear and push them to their current situation.

In fact, Su has always been confused in his heart.

That is, has the conjecture proposed by Mei about the nature of the world been confirmed?

Kevin nodded at that.

Su couldn't help but sigh again. Everything in the world seemed like a planned play. Just as some believers said, everything they went through was just to confirm whether humans were qualified to go to some higher existence and end their childhood.

Kevin doesn't think so. He believes that everything he has experienced is his everything, not the price he paid to achieve something.

Therefore, he would never deny any part of it, even failure or pain.

If he avoided it, it would be tantamount to denying Mei, denying Su, and denying everything that Alicia brought to the world.

"May is right. Saving one person is often harder and much more difficult than being everyone's hero. But at least, we have this opportunity again."

"So, this time...will the ending be different?"

"Since it's Alicia, I'm afraid not."

"But at least... we don't have to feel as sorry as we did before, right?"

"Well, since that was supposed to be her dance... this time, let's let the master stay until the end."]

Although Kevin and Sue's conversation remains as puzzling as usual.

But as old viewers of the show, they can still guess the general idea from just a few words.

The end of the matter still cannot be avoided by the ball, the ball about the birth and death of the Thirteenth Herrscher.

"The nature of the world..."

Mei frowned.

Through Otto's previous plot, she has guessed most of it, probably the theory of trees and the sea.

It is obviously just an animation, but because of the special identity of the screenwriter, this theory is now widely known in the scientific community, and even many scientists have begun to conduct experiments.

It’s just because the person who wrote such a plot was once the highest authority in the Destiny Research Institute. No one can guarantee what the Destiny Research Institute has really researched in private under Yaqing’s leadership?

But Mei still couldn't understand it. The tree and the sea were clearly in a mutually devouring relationship, so why did it seem like a trial in Su's mouth?

"Boss Kevin and Brother Su really care about Sister Ai Li. Even if it means sacrificing their own lives, they want to buy time for Sister Ai Li's resurrection."

Paddo had a complicated expression.

When Alicia heard this, she didn't feel the slightest bit of joy that Kevin and Su sacrificed themselves to save him, only sadness.

If possible, she would definitely not accept such a resurrection.

"Su, next is our joint attack. I really hope I can die handsomely. This is one of the few highlights for me."

Kevin's lips curved into a smile.

"Yes, from now on, we will end it all."

Sue exhaled.

They never care how tragic their death is. They only care whether their sacrifice is meaningful and whether they look handsome at the moment of their death.

"No... You are not dead, Su is not dead either. Not only are you in the eternal paradise, you are also alive in the current civilization."

Eden suddenly spoke.

If it were someone else, they might never have the chance to appear on the stage again, but Kevin is different. He is the Lord of the World Serpent and the executor of the Stigmata Plan. Although Su has lost his body, his consciousness is eternal.

They all have a chance to make a comeback.

[The time has not yet come, Kevin and Su still need to wait.

At the same time, on the other side, the shadow of the expert personality Velvet appeared in front of Pado. Pado still wanted to pretend to have amnesia. Velvet directly pointed out that she was the backdoor so that Pado could also maintain her self.

But even though Vivi said this, Padu still chose to turn a deaf ear and dumb.

Weiwei didn't want to continue to tangle with Paduo, so she directly stated her purpose. She hoped that Paduo could act as a guide for Kevin's attack.

Although the destructive power of Kevin's full-strength attack was unquestionable, if it was just swung out like that, it would only destroy some insignificant data. She needed Pado to open a path to the outside world so that this attack could work in a crucial place.

Of course, Padu would not want to do such a dangerous task. She was just a mortal and just wanted to survive, so she planned to use the same trick again and find a chance to escape when Vivi wasn't paying attention.

But what she didn't expect was that Weiwei didn't seem to try to stop her.

Vivi made it clear that the purpose of her existence was to allow Paddo to maintain her self-esteem, and she did not have the ability to force her.

"Look - there are no boundaries here, you are freer than ever. You don't have to do what you should do, just do what you want to do."

After saying the last sentence, Wei Wei's shadow disappeared.

Only Padu was left with a complicated expression, and it was unknown whether she had heard what Weiwei said.

"What a weird guy..."]

Mei sighed.

Kevin was surprised.

Unexpectedly, the development of the plot was exactly as Mei guessed. Just a while ago, when he heard Mei's guess, he didn't take it seriously.

"Pado..."

Alicia glanced at the dazed cat.

Of course she knew why Pado was pretending to be stupid. It was human instinct to seek good fortune and avoid danger. Vivi would not force Pado, and no one had the right to force Pado to sacrifice.

But Alicia believes that Padu will eventually choose to complete this task which is equivalent to sacrifice.

"Sister Wei Wei is really..."

Paduo came back to her senses from her daze. She didn't know how to evaluate Weiwei. She had just "tricked" herself to death. The voice of "Sister Mei, I don't want to die" was still lingering in her ears.

"I...I can't possibly agree to that. I'm most afraid of death. I can't possibly agree to that..."

Paddo kept repeating.

Because she didn't know what she was thinking.

Weiwei was also very helpless about this.

She originally thought that Paduo was just an accident in the plan, but she didn't expect that the "herself" in the plot had even taken Paduo into account.

"Wei Weiwei, it's so terrifying, the calculation is so cruel, no wonder Pado, who has low combat power, is also in the plan, it has never been a surprise, but an indispensable part."

Xiaozhi shuddered.

If possible, she never wanted to meet an opponent like Wei Erwei in her life. She could have taken action but had to use her brain, and could have solved the problem quickly but had to plan for a long time.

"This is clearly a death sentence..."

Fu Hua muttered to herself.

This is too cruel both for Paddo and the audience.

I just saw Paddo's reappearance, and before I could be happy for long, I had to watch Paddo sacrifice again.

No one thought that Paduo would escape, and no one doubted that Paduo would give up the mission.
