Collapse: The World I Live In

As lightning struck, the entire city turned red in an instant.

"Ah!" A scream brought the stunned passers-by back to their senses, and what they saw was a horrifying scene.

A man was knocking another man to the ground, and the man bit the neck of the knocked man. Immediately, blood gushed out.

When these passersby saw this and were about to run, another person, like the previous one, rushed towards them and bit their necks. In an instant, screams continued on the street...

"This way..." Yi, who realized something was wrong, quickly grabbed Long's hand and took her to a deep alley. Usually no one came to this place, so no one was killed. It was safe for the time being. Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why did the collapse happen here?"

"Who knows? We have to contact the Fire Chaser Moth quickly." Long put a communicator on his ear and handed Yi an identical one, saying, "Take this with you. Even in an area with a high concentration of Honkai energy, you can still contact others well."

"Okay." Yi said while putting on the communicator, "No, I still have to find Xi. She's still in danger! I'll take you to a safe place first."

"No need, you go find your sister first. Don't underestimate me. Although I am a senior executive, my combat capability is still good." Long lit a cigarette as she said that. Although she said that, she was actually still very panicked in her heart. After all, this was her first time to be truly in the midst of collapse, and she lit a cigarette to relieve the tension.

"Well... okay." Yi hesitated and said, "Then you have to pay attention to safety..."

"Got it. Don't worry, I'll come to see you later. You go over first." Long waved his hand and said.

"Okay then..." After saying that, Yi ran towards the school where Xi was.

Long also took out the computer from his luggage and contacted the Fire Moth on the spot. Finally, the communicator was connected. Just when Long was about to be happy, a voice came from the other side, "The sixth collapse is coming..." Long was stunned.

……

"What's wrong? Long, is there any problem?" Yi received a call from Long not long after he went out.

"I have bad news for you... This collapse is not an ordinary collapse... This is the beginning of the sixth collapse..." said Long on the other side of the communicator.

"What? Hasn't it been more than half a year? The Herrscher appears again?" Yi said in surprise, but still did not slow down.

"There is no time to explain all this. I will send you the area with the highest concentration of Honkai energy. When you go to find your sister, remember to take a detour and don't rush in. Be careful not to run into the Herrscher. After all, you haven't been to the battlefield for a long time..." After Long finished speaking, he used the computer to send the image of the Honkai energy detection in the Fire Moth to Yi.

On Yi's side, he was stunned when he saw the picture sent by Long, and asked, "How is it possible?"

"What happened?" Long asked after hearing Yi's voice.

"The area with the highest concentration of Honkai energy... is the school where Xi is located..." Yi said, and quickened his pace to rush towards the place with the highest concentration of Honkai energy.

"Wait! Yi, don't do anything stupid. I have already reported to the Fire Moth. Kevin is on the way! Hello! Hello!" But Long did not get Yi's reply, but the sound of the communicator hanging up. Long was so angry that he bit off the cigarette in his mouth and said, "Damn it! Why don't you listen to anyone's advice! Why do I like a guy like you!" Although Long said this, his body still rushed in the direction where Yi was going.

The closer Yi gets to the area with the highest concentration of Honkai energy, the more Honkai beasts and dead soldiers appear.

Yi had to clean up the dead soldiers and the Honkai beasts while rushing towards the destination, and his speed slowed down a lot.

"Damn it, why is this never-ending!" Yi projected a katana and just cut a dead man in half, and then a knight-level Honkai beast wielding a spear attacked him.

The collision of the sword and the spear caused a burst of sparks, but in the end it was the spear in Honkai Beast's hand that won. Seeing this, Yi couldn't help but curl his lips, kicked on Honkai Beast's shield, jumped into the sky, and then projected a black longbow and a spiral sword, put it on the bow, and shot it towards Honkai Beast. "Pseudo Spiral Sword (Caladbolg 2)" A red light shot towards Honkai Beast and hit Honkai Beast's forehead accurately. Then Yi also landed, looking at the dead soldiers and Honkai Beast who gathered towards him, chuckled and said, "Broken Phantasm"

Then, there was a burst of explosion. The small sword contained a huge amount of Honkai energy, which exploded in that instant, swallowing up the surrounding Honkai beasts and dead soldiers. Finally, when the explosion disappeared, there was no Honkai beast or dead soldier around.

Yi also wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Fortunately, my technique has not become rusty..." and rushed towards Xi again.

At the same time, on Xi's side, the campus that was originally full of laughter and joy was now dead silent. Xi stood in her original classroom. The walls around the classroom had been stained red with blood, and were filled with the remains of her former classmates. There were also faint traces of blood on Xi's face, but these were other people's blood...

"Why? Xi, why are you doing this..." said a dying boy. He couldn't believe that the girl who was so timid in the class would become like this. He also couldn't believe that the girl he liked would become so violent... Xi was bullied not only because of her family reasons, but also because of her appearance. She had a good-looking face, so there were many boys who liked her secretly.

The boy in front of him was one of them, but Xi did not answer his question. In the boy's horrified eyes, he used the iron chain to manipulate the claws and pierced the boy's heart. The boy also lost his breath of life...

“Ha, hahahahaha!” Xi, who had done all this, did not feel sorry for it. Instead, she showed a sickly smile and said hysterically, “You all asked for this! You obviously like me, but you don’t dare to stand up for me! You all deserve to die! You all deserve to die!”

Xi stopped smiling, touched his chin with his hand, and said, "What should I do next?" Then, as if he had thought of something, he smiled again and said, "Oh, right! My dear brother is also in this city. Let's go find him next~ I really want to see him die with his eyes open~"

Xi held her face with both hands, breathing heavily, her cheeks turned pink, and she said, "Ah~ I'm really... looking forward to it~ Let's go [Yaki]." After that, a big snake with eight heads and eight tails, the heads looked like dragons, its eyes were as red as sour sauce, and its overall color was white and purple. It was one section longer and one circle thicker than the third Herrscher's companion Honkai beast [Shesha], which was also a snake. It broke through the wall and came in front of Xi. This big snake was Xi's companion Honkai beast—named [Yaki].

One of the heads of the big snake lowered its head, and Xi slowly walked up to the head of the big snake. Then, the big snake raised its head and placed Xi in the highest position.

Looking at the ruined city, Xi couldn't help but feel happy. Listening to those people's screams and wails was really irresistible!

At this time, Yi was looking at the huge eight-headed snake standing in the distance where he was going, and he kept praying in his heart, "God bless you! I hope Xi can hide and not be discovered."

When Yi arrived at the scene, the scene he saw was something he would never forget. At that moment, Xi was driving the big snake to slaughter the remaining survivors on the campus, with a yandere smile on his face, and he did not stop until he killed the last survivor.

"Xi! What are you doing!" At this moment, Yi couldn't believe it, nor was he willing to believe that Xi had become the thing he was most worried about - the Herrscher.

"Hey~ Isn't this my dear brother? As you can see, I am slaughtering humans." Xi said with a smile as he looked at Yi who was lowering his head.

"Why..." Yi bit his lips until they bled and dug his nails into the flesh. Even though he already knew the reality and Xi had become a Herrscher, as a brother he still couldn't bring himself to do anything to his sister.

"Why? What a stupid question. Because I am a Herrscher. A Herrscher should destroy humanity, right?" Xi said with a smile, then changed his expression and said, "And it is you who caused all this, my dear brother."

"I have never hated you so much...my brother..." Xi's last words broke Yi's defense. Yi's eyes gradually lost their luster and he fell to the ground, because Xi was right...

Everything... is his fault...
