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

"I'm afraid... I'm still missing. Although Mei and Ai Li have exchanged true hearts, she still doesn't know Ai Li well enough in the past. With my memories, it should be enough."

Now people on the internet are speculating that Eden was left until the end because the screenwriter was afraid that Eden’s fans would turn on him.

Although Alicia also has a huge number of fans, compared with the global Eden, it is like the starlight and the bright moon, or the bright moon and the sun.

No one doubted Eden's understanding of Alicia.

And at the same time on the other side.

"Failed?!"

Mebius was stunned.

She said that she really hated Alicia, but she felt bad when she saw the failure of the resurrection.

The heroes sacrificed themselves one after another just to bring back Alicia.

Yaqing saw Mebius's stunned expression.

He must have known in his heart that although Mobius said that he hated Alicia, every time Alicia tried to get close to him, she had never explicitly rejected her.

"Snake, how can you witness the ending without going through hardships?"

"Speak human language..."

“The process may be painful, but the ending will be satisfying.”

"You mean to say that Yingjie will be resurrected and won't die?"

"Uh……"

Yaqing scratched his head.

[Mei called out to Alicia, and the next second, the voice of the fairy Ali appeared in Mei's ears, along with her helper, Eden.

Eden came to Mei's memory space with the help of the fairy Airi's ability.

She already knew everything that had happened before, and she comforted Mei, who was about to cry, not to blame herself. Ai Lisia's life was so colorful, and it was a bit too much to restore all her memories based on the short time they spent together.

Mei has completed ninety-nine steps, and the next final step will be completed by her and the fairy Airi.

The lack of one memory must naturally be supplemented by another memory.

Hearing this, Mei understood that, as a memory, if Eden used her own memories to complete the existence of Alicia, then...

"I would be a part of her forever. Isn't that... a very romantic thing?"

"Eden..."

"Please don't worry about me, Miss Mei. I am not afraid of any form of death. To me, life is just a long drama. As long as I can end it in the most beautiful way at the most appropriate time, then this performance will be perfect."

A gentle smile appeared on Eden's face.

"This... is also her wish."]

No one doubted Eden's death.

Because the title of this episode has clearly told the audience.

[Eden Chapter: Farewell to the Song of the Past]

"Eden...you are indeed my best friend!"

Alicia was moved and hugged Eden's slender waist.

If possible, she really didn't want to see Eden's death, let alone die in order to resurrect her.

"That's not necessary, Ellie. I don't think I'm doing well enough."

Eden gently stroked Alicia's pink hair.

"No, Eden, you did the best you could."

Alicia disagreed with Eden's words and was serious.

Eden smiled.

Just as the plot says, making yourself a part of Alicia is indeed a very romantic thing.

Eden was suddenly stunned.

She thought that this idea was similar to that of a yandere. If it continued to develop, it would be unimaginable...

[Eden spread out his palms, and Mei did the same.

Four crystal flowers of different colors were finally collected, and the four keys together guarded a past event.

The memory of Alicia did not know what happened at the party, but the four witnesses of the party, who also watched her leave the world, would never forget it.

That banquet was the farewell banquet that Alicia prepared for herself. She had arranged everything for the banquet, including, of course, her final moment as a Herrscher.

Now that Mei has collected all four keys, it means that the keeper of the secret has acknowledged her will, so it is time for everything to see the light of day again.

"Ms. Mei, I'll leave everything else to you..."

Eden held Mei's hand.

"Please bring Ai Li - our "hope" back to this world."

Mei finally asked Eden a question. There was something she couldn't figure out no matter what. Was Alicia's death really as she had deduced?

In order to unite the remaining warriors and to strengthen people's resistance against Honkai, Alicia chose to become a Herrscher, and she sacrificed herself without hesitation to gain what she had won.

But all of this is full of problems. Regardless of how Alicia could voluntarily become a Herrscher, even if she did, how could she make the warriors wake up? If so, how could the history of the Thirteenth Herrscher be erased?

There are many unreasonable situations in this statement.

"Could there be a twist? Alicia isn't the thirteenth Herrscher?!"

Xiao Shi's eyes widened.

Eden is about to end, but at this time, Mei actually asked this question.

Alicia herself was also bewildered.

When everyone had already accepted Alicia's identity as the Thirteenth Herrscher, an unexpected reversal told them that there were many unreasonable aspects of this identity.

No wonder Mei couldn't revive Alicia. Mei still hasn't figured out the whole story of the banquet.

"Ellie is really mysterious. We thought we understood 80% of her, but it turns out that we may not even understand 8%."

Mei couldn't help but sigh.

Among all the heroes now, the most mysterious one is Alicia.

They seem to understand, but in fact they don't understand at all.

"If Mei wants to get to know me, I'd love to."

Alicia turned around and blinked her beautiful eyes at Mei.

Kevin became anxious and quickly stood in front of Mei.

He had just witnessed with his own eyes how Alicia quickly transformed Mei, whose mind was filled with Kiana, into her shape.

Although Mei and Mei have different personalities, they look very similar.

He believed that Mei would not betray him, but he also believed that Alicia was really good at turning women into lesbians.

Isn't Eden a good example?

[After hearing Mei's last question, Eden nodded in approval.

There are indeed many unreasonable aspects of the Thirteenth Herrscher, and she also admitted that this statement was only for the purpose of explaining it to others and future generations.

"And there is only one answer that can turn all the [irrational] things into [rational] ones... and that is the [truth] you have been searching for."

Eden smiled.

"Is that so? So..."

All the past events had not yet come to Mei's mind, but those casual conversations had already revealed the answer.

"That's right, maybe... I really told a big lie, the only lie in my life."

"After all... I am afraid too. Hmm - I wonder what everyone will think of me? But the ending should be good, otherwise there would be no Alicia in the paradise of the afterlife."

"Ah, haha, thank you Mei. I'm so lucky to meet you in this way. You brought me... the [gift] that I've always longed for but never dared to ask for."

The fragments of words from the past gradually formed a line, leading Mei's thoughts to the only answer.

Alicia has never been the Thirteenth Herrscher!

Mei looked at Eden in surprise.

Eden nodded.

"Well, [Thirteen] is a false number. She told a lie to the world just to tell the truth to her loved ones before leaving."]

Eden's soft voice was deafening to the audience's ears.

When they heard Eden admit it himself, they were shocked.

Alicia opened her mouth slightly.

Mei and Wei Liwei kept staring at each other. As the two people with the highest IQs present, they didn't even react.

From the very beginning, they had never doubted Alicia's identity as the Thirteenth Herrscher.

[Eden is happy for Mei.

Mei finally found the answer on her own.

"This is what you have been looking for all along, the final secret buried in the paradise of the past."

Eden whispered the secret.

"The second of the Fire Chasing Heroes, Alysia, the Inscription of the True Self, this girl who deeply loves everyone... She was born a Herrscher."

When Mei heard this secret again, her eyes widened and her lips trembled slightly. 】

When they heard this truly hidden secret, their reactions as the audience were no less than Mei's, with emotions such as confusion, helplessness, and stupor.

There has never been a Thirteenth Herrscher, only the First Herrscher.

This is a huge reversal.

"Nani?!"

Sakura even spoke in her hometown dialect for a moment.

Alicia was stunned.

She finally understood why she was afraid to tell everyone the truth and afraid to see their reactions.

It turns out that she was a Herrscher from the very beginning, and fighting against Honkai together with everyone was a deception in itself, as she concealed her identity as the Herrscher, the apostle of Honkai.

This is why Mebius called Alicia a traitor.

What she betrayed was never everyone, but Honkai.

This is probably the source of Alicia's fear and terror. She is afraid that if she tells the truth, others will look at her strangely, and everyone will stay away from her because of the initial deception.

"I finally know why [I] kept this secret and didn't even tell Sue."

Kevin exclaimed.

This is the biggest secret hidden in the land of the past, and it is also the true self of Alicia.

"In that case, wouldn't Sister Ellie be the First Herrscher?"

Paddo discovered the blind spot.

"But then again, if Ellie is a Herrscher, why can she keep her own identity?"

Mei frowned.

There is a huge difference between the hermits of the previous civilization and the hermits of the current civilization.

There has never been a Herrscher who fights for humanity. Once he becomes a Herrscher, he seems to have lost his mind, and his mind is full of destruction. The Herrscher of Death reveals his humanity when he dies, which makes Kevin waver. As a result...

Only Himiko smiled before her death, but Kevin would not hold back anymore.

Now, Alicia is the first one to make the journey, so how did she retain her humanity? This is the biggest question, and also the biggest gap between the previous civilization and the current civilization.

It was only at this moment that they realized that the previous civilization also had Herrschers who fought for humanity.

"I am becoming more and more curious about what happened at the party. Did Kevin really..."
