Their commission was suspicious.

Throughout the entire spiritual plane, whether on Earth or other planets, a vast rain of flowers fell.

Countless petals fell from the sky, a spectacular sight, yet without obstructing people's view of the moon.

"It's my birthday, shouldn't I be the one making a wish to someone else?" Chen Luo disappeared from the spot, feeling distressed.

……

Chen Luo was not seen in the bar.

The bar usually opens at 8 p.m., but today was a little different. Raiden Mei and Yomi brought out a birthday cake, and Chen Luo cut the cake and distributed it to everyone at exactly 8 p.m.

Chen Luo carried the top layer of the 18-layer cake home to celebrate with his family, and everyone in the bar understood.

Logically, Chen Luo should have spent the rest of the time in the bar, but the cake was eaten too quickly, and Luo Li chased Chen Luo away too fast.

It was also because of Luo Li's words that Chen Luo, moved by her thoughts, arrived at another place.

"Is the memory synchronization complete?" Chen Luo sat at the entrance of the Paradise of the Past, watching Mebius walk out of the Paradise of the Past.

"Hmm." Mebius nodded slightly and took the cake from Chen Luo's hand.

Chen Luo thought that with an 18-layer cake, even if everyone in the bar ate one slice, they wouldn't be able to finish it all, so he took two layers instead of one.

The second layer can be divided into approximately 12-14 sections.

Mebius took the last piece.

The first 12 pieces were taken away by the 11 heroes who came to the Paradise of the Past and synchronized their memories.

Kevin took two pieces because he would share one with May.

However, some people take it before going in, while others take it after coming out.

“Yes, it’s all synchronized. I was the last one. It tastes good. Is this your birthday cake?” Mebius said, sitting with Chen Luo above the Paradise of the Past, looking down at the desolate land.

"Ah."

The Land of the Past is a palace buried deep underground, and above it, 50,000 years ago, was a scattered but well-organized group of buildings.

These ruined architectural complexes were everywhere on this land of the pre-civilization era.

After fifty thousand years of weathering, all of this will be smoothed over, leaving only the paradise of the past buried deep underground.

The earth is the last barrier left to this civilization by the previous civilization.

The power of the Herrscher of the End will ultimately only cleanse the surface of this planet.

Because the purpose of the End is never to destroy the world, but to allow this civilization to evolve into a civilization similar to the one that created the Cocoon of the End.

Therefore, the only thing the Herrscher of the End will not destroy is this cradle of life—the planet.

This is also the last chance for survival left to the survivors of the previous civilization.

"My memory, as expected, has never been well-behaved from beginning to end. A mental seed... how could she do such a thing? She's just as good as me." Möbius chuckled after finishing his cake.

“That’s perfectly normal. So, do you need me to remove it for you?” Chen Luo asked.

The fact that Mebius could detect the hidden tricks left by the other person during their memory synchronization did not mean that Mebius could remove them.

“No need. In any case, simply being immortal is no longer my goal. In that respect, I should thank her for forcing me onto the path of pursuing the highest and the infinite.” Möbius shook his head.

"The relationship between the two of you is really... well, whatever makes you both happy."

Chen Luo didn't see any aversion from Mebius to Memory Mebius; on the contrary, he seemed to enjoy seeing Memory Mebius in a fit of rage.

Is this something that every person with a bad temper would do?

“What’s there to be unhappy about? All her memories come from me, so she is me, isn’t she? Anyway, I’m going to create memory bodies, and I’m going to create them anyway, so what’s the difference? Oh no, the difference is that it really is a memory body.” Thinking of this, Möbius’s lips curled up slightly.

In a sense, the memory entity Mebius is one of the most unique people in the afterlife.

Since everyone is quite special, only Möbius is a simple memory, so Möbius is actually the most special one, isn't he?

"Hey, stop gloating. By the way, have you prepared a birthday present? I didn't tell the others, so it's fine if they don't prepare one, but you can't just not prepare one either," Chen Luo said, extending his hand to Mebius.

“Emmm…” After hesitating for a moment, Mebius took off his white coat and handed it to Chen Luo.

"So your birthday present is your own lab coat? What about the doll?"

"No, this lab coat is a doll, because it has a snake pattern that Klein embroidered himself."

"Are you serious? I want to hug the plush toy."

"I see, I understand." Mebius stood up from the bench, put his feet on the chair, gently took off his shoes, and then slowly pulled off his smooth, knee-length black stockings, rolled them into a ball, and stuffed them into Chen Luo's hand.

"kindness?"

“Consider this a toy. If you want to hug it anytime, just come find me. Hugging a toy is no fun. As for the gift…” Mebius hesitated for a moment, then slowly took off the “infinity” style earring from his ear.

Chen Luo watched as Mebius placed the earring in his hand, his expression changing slightly.

"Are you serious about giving this to me as a gift?" Chen Luo asked, somewhat surprised.

“Of course, is there a problem? After all, strictly speaking, this is what brought us together, isn’t it? Isn’t it memorable enough?” Möbius said casually.

Mebius and Chen Luo first met after Mebius got drunk.

Möbius was supposed to leave the party smoothly and meet Klein, who had come to pick him up, but because he was a little too drunk, he accidentally pushed open the bar door and entered the bar.

However, Mebius was drunk at the time, so his memory was rather hazy; he came and went in a daze.

If it weren't for the fact that the pendant given to Möbius by his mother was left in the bar, and that Möbius hadn't relentlessly searched for it, he might not have been able to recall what the bar looked like from his memory.

If that's the case, then the bar and Chen Luo will just be a small interlude in Mebius's life. Although Chen Luo will find that the new customers never come again, he won't care too much about it.

But life is made up of a series of coincidences.

This earring acted as a catalyst, leading Chen Luo to the pre-civilization and binding his fate with that of Mebius, Alicia, Kevin, and even the entire pre-civilization.

If Chen Luo hadn't encountered the previous civilization, he wouldn't have had so many adventurers in Paradise, because Chen Luo simply didn't like to influence others unnecessarily.

Unless it's a situation like in the previous civilization where Chen Luo would truly die if he didn't save the other party.

Therefore, while there will be some adventurers and wish-granters in Chen Luo's Paradise at that time, their numbers will be very small.

The number of adventurers and wish-seekers in the park may not have a decisive impact on Chen Luo, but it will certainly slow down his progress considerably.

At the same time, the positive impact that the Wish Walker had on Chen Luo through his extensive activities in the Dimensional Sea cannot be denied.

If the previous civilization had not encountered Chen Luo, the vast majority of its inhabitants would have truly vanished from this planet like dust.

A person will experience death three times in their lifetime.

The existence of heroes may illuminate future generations, but ordinary people in the midst of great calamity have no right to leave their names.

There was no question of who owed whom between Qian Wenming and Chen Luo; rather, they complemented each other.

At least Chen Luo didn't care about the hard work he put into finding monsters that would produce Paradise Coins for the adventurers in the early stages.

The adventurers in the amusement park never cared about the spiritual mark Chen Luo had etched on them.

This small earring, which had no special power attached to it, left Chen Luo in a daze for a long time.

“It seems you’re quite pleased with my birthday present.” Mebius finally broke Chen Luo’s reverie.

Möbius felt he had never been a romantic person, just as he does now.

“I’m very satisfied, but this is the only thing your mother left you.”

"It doesn't matter. A gift from an important person can certainly be given to someone equally important. I hope you won't just leave this earring in your backpack to gather dust. After all, compared to this little earring, there are far more magical items that you've only used once and never used again," Möbius said casually.

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of it." Chen Luo nodded.

"Okay, that's good. If there's nothing else, I'll head back to the survivor base. There are still some experiments I haven't finished."

"..."

“I’ve never been a romantic person, you know that. And now is not the time to be romantic.” Looking at Chen Luo’s slightly helpless expression, Möbius replied.

"Yes, yes, but remember to wait for me to pick you up and take you back to the bar after everything is over. Don't really give up on Immortality." Chen Luo nodded.

"Why should I wait for you? Don't I have hands?" As Mebius passed Chen Luo, who was sitting on a bench, he roughly ruffled Chen Luo's hair and walked away.

[She means she wants you to do what you need to do and not worry about her too much.] the humanized plugin translated.

Snake has always been arrogant, but coincidentally, the job of the humanized plugin is to translate the messy and incomprehensible prophecies displayed by the reconnaissance ability.

Mind reading overcomes arrogance!

“Yes, now is definitely not the time for romance…” Chen Luo’s gaze was deep as he looked toward the ancient paradise buried countless meters underground.

Chen Luo held the pendant that Mebius had left for him in his hand.

"Clang! Clang!" A colorful firecracker went off, and at the same time, Vervi appeared in front of Chen Luo from the underground passage leading to Paradise.

Möbius was the last to complete the synchronization of his memories with the memory body, but not the last to leave the afterlife.

Some people took their cakes before entering Paradise, like Aponia and Vervière. Others took their cakes after leaving, like Möbius.

"How is it? Surprised?" Wilvi asked as she walked over to Chen Luo.

Why are you setting up a firework display?

“I don’t know. When I saw you bring out that delicious cake, I knew today must be an important day, but I didn’t know what it was, so I got a confetti cannon from my memory to cheer you up, but you don’t seem to be as happy as I am.” Velvi sat on the bench by the armrest, resting her chin on one hand.

"Yes, so Aponia did make that choice, didn't she?"

“Hmm, you know the answer already. But before Aponia merged her spirit with the Land of the Past, she told me to give you a message,” Velvi suddenly said.

"Hmm, what did you say?"

"She said she hoped you would keep your promise and not let Alicia down. So... what did you do?" Velvi looked at Chen Luo suspiciously.

This is also why Vervier felt that Chen Luoming was an advisor.

Perhaps without Vervi's knowledge, Aponia and Chen Luo had already reached some tacit agreement.

Otherwise, Aponia shouldn't have merged with the Paradise of the Past through the back door left by Velvi before the final battle even began, right?

While it's true that fusion warriors with mental perception aren't very effective against Honkai Beasts, fusion warriors like Aponia and Su aren't even on the list of those fighting in the End.

Of course, Greta wasn't there either.

Because Gretchen will replace Kosmo, who is best suited for the Ark Project, to carry out the Ark Project and sail into the stars.

"It's nothing, it's just that the agreement gave her a dream that was indistinguishable from reality," Chen Luo said.

Chen Luo was referring to the children at the nursing home that Aponia had always longed for.

But Chen Luo felt that there was no need to worry about Aponia. The children's skill in manipulating the power of wishes was now no less than that of some adults.

Many children from the pre-civilization era became Paradise Adventurers, but these children were more likely than adults to become Wish Walkers.

Children who are born without personality defects can change faster than adults after receiving proper education.

And those little devils who were born evil and did a lot of bad things at a young age... are already in the soul lamp.

He punched the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicked the Beihai Kindergarten. Whether the bad guys had grown old or were still young, Chen Luo treated them all the same.

"It was just a dream, I don't believe it. Please tell me."

"That's really all."

Chen Luo merely concealed the fact that Aponia vaguely suspected he was not simple, and that Aponia still trusted him completely even after he watched Alicia vanish.

Aponia believed that either everything was already predetermined, or there was still a possibility of reversing things; otherwise, Chen Luo would not have remained indifferent.

Regardless of which choice she makes, Aponia has already made her decision.

"I don't believe it, Chen Luo!" Wilvi suddenly stepped onto the bench, looking at Chen Luo with a fierce gaze.

"Ok?"

“As someone I acknowledge, you surely wouldn’t want Velvi to leave this world with doubts, would you? Hehehe!” Velvi lifted Chen Luo’s chin with her fingers.

"Vilvie, calm down...wait a minute, something seems off. Who did you just use to threaten me?"

"Of course it's me. Do you think I have anything else to threaten you with? So you really won't tell me?"

"...Don't worry, everything will be revealed in the end." Chen Luo smiled.

Although Velvi's outward appearance resembles that of a psychic-sensory fusion warrior, Velvi's artificially decomposed state is capable of going toe-to-toe with Kevin.

As a powerful force, Velvi will also participate in the final battle.

Velvi had no confidence that she would survive the final battle. However, some things, even knowing they are impossible, must still be done.

That's why Virvi made that statement.
