Collapse: The World I Live In

"Hey, Doctor, is this true?" Yi looked at Mebius in disbelief.

"Really, Yi, what we have been looking for for a year has long been known by the government and sealed up, not telling the world. I only recently learned about this thing called collapse for some reasons. Collapse is a periodic natural disaster, and it is also the rhythm of the universe's periodic adjustment. The time of collapse is irregular, and the form of expression is unpredictable, but what is certain is that when collapse breaks out, it will release a highly efficient and dangerous energy - collapse energy, and the unknown energy in your body is also this kind of thing, collapse energy, but according to the information provided by the government, people who have been exposed to collapse energy will get collapse disease, which is the disease your mother suffers from. So far, no case has survived, and you, Yi, have a lot of collapse energy in your body, but you are still like nothing happened, and you have gained unique abilities. Who are you, Yi?" Mobius sat in a chair and stared at Yi. Yi lowered his head and did not answer. He had not reacted to what he heard yet. He didn't know how to answer Mobius. Should he ask the doctor about the specifics of collapse? Or what about his mother's disease? Yi didn't say a word.

"..."

Mobius sighed and said, "Yi, if you want to know the truth of this world, come with me, join me and the Fire Moth organization. I hope you can give me your answer as soon as possible. If you join, I will tell you more about the Honkai. If you don't want to join and face the Honkai, leave as soon as possible. Also, don't tell anyone about the Honkai, otherwise nothing good will happen." After that, Mobius got up and left the laboratory.

Yi was still stunned. If he didn't join, he couldn't continue the research and cure his mother. If he joined, his life would be in danger. He was afraid that if he died, no one would take care of his mother and sister. He was the only supporter of the family. But Yi told himself in his heart that he should join quickly. The truth of the world kept attracting Yi. Ordinary people would feel afraid when facing the unknown, but Yi was different. He had been planted with seeds. Just like seeds crave nutrients, he also craves the truth.

夜晚

Yi stood on the balcony, the biting cold wind blowing on his face, "The wind is so noisy tonight." Yi sighed.

After a while, Yi took out his phone and dialed the number. When the call was connected, the familiar voice rang out.

"Hello, son, why are you calling so late? What's the matter?" a gentle voice sounded.

Listening to this familiar and slightly tired voice, Yi couldn't help but shed tears from the corners of his eyes, "Mom, it's okay, I just miss you and Xi"

"Your sister and I miss you too..."

On Yi's mother's side, Xi roared when he heard his mother say that he missed her stupid brother.

"Who wants this idiot!" Yi couldn't help but laugh when he heard the familiar voice. Xi might be in a rebellious period at this age.

"Don't listen to Xi. She might be a little rebellious in high school," said her mother.

"Got it, Mom. Please take care of your health in Changkong City."

"Got it, son. Don't be too tired when you are away. Come back if you miss home. Xi and I will always be here waiting for you."

"I know, Mom, I will, that's it, have a sweet dream, good night, Mom"

"Well, sweet dreams, my son."

After hanging up the phone, Yi took a deep breath and made up his mind. Whether for himself or his family, he would follow in Mebius' footsteps, join the Fire Moth, and explore the truth of this world.

…………

The next morning, in the laboratory

"Have you thought it through? Once you join, you can't regret it," Mebius asked Yi seriously, "Once you join, you will face the risk of death at any time. There is no possibility of regret."

"I've thought it through, Doctor. No matter what the reason is, I will not regret it when I make this decision." Yi said to Mobius seriously and looked at him. He did not retreat under Mobius's gaze as usual, but was extremely firm.

Mebius looked at Yi and laughed out loud, "That's great, otherwise I don't know where to find such a useful "babysitter"."

"Doctor, can you be serious about such an important matter? I have thought about this decision for a long time," Yi couldn't help but say as he looked at Mobius.

"Oh, it's been a year and you're still so stingy. Be careful not to find a girlfriend."

"Don't worry about that, Doctor."

"Tsk, that's boring." Mobius turned his head away and said indifferently, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Mobius's expression changed from cynical to serious, as if he was doing an experiment, and he told Yi about the so-called collapse.

"The manifestation of collapse is unpredictable. War, infectious diseases, climate disasters, comet impacts, and even the advent of the giant god soldiers are all possible. According to the explanation in the classics, collapse can only be said to be the unpredictable will of God, but judging from the results, it will definitely lead to the mass extinction of the world's dominant species. In the collapse, a kind of energy that has never been seen in past technology will be released - collapse energy. The efficiency of collapse energy is higher than any other energy in the world, but collapse energy will corrode organisms, causing them to become collapse creatures - collapse beasts and dead soldiers. Your "cockroach rat" is a so-called collapse beast, but in The most basic Honkai beasts. Honkai energy also has the property of attracting each other, and they will attract each other and gather together to produce "Hunkai Sources". Every time a Great Honkai occurs, a Herrscher will be born. Herrschers have a high level of Honkai adaptability, and even have certain Honkai ability characteristics from birth, so it is speculated that the location of the Great Honkai is not random, but because of humans with Herrscher characteristics in this area that caused the Great Honkai to break out. However, there are very few such humans. According to the information we know, the purpose of the Herrscher is to execute the will of Honkai, showing a strong desire to destroy existing things. "

After listening to Mobius' explanation of Honkai and Herrscher, Yi suddenly remembered the monster he and Eden encountered in high school, and wondered if it was a creature, so he asked, "How many times has a human like Herrscher appeared?"

Hearing Yi's question, Mebius said, "Humans? Are they still considered humans? So far, no Herrscher has appeared. The Fire Moth organization was also organized because of the frequent outbreaks of Honkai recently. Therefore, joining this organization is not only for one's own selfish desires, but also for the future of the entire human race, for the future that humans can survive Honkai."

The future of mankind? Yi felt that he did not have such a great ideal, nor such great power to shoulder this responsibility. He was just one among millions of people who was better than ordinary people. He was not qualified to shoulder the future of mankind.

"Don't worry, Yi, I will help you. We will fight for humanity together and make the entire human race evolve!" Mobius walked towards Yi, took his hand, looked into Yi's eyes, and said excitedly. Mobius was nearly a head shorter than Yi, so Mobius could only look up at Yi, and her beautiful face was completely reflected in Yi's eyes.

"I know, I know, Doctor. I will work hard. And please pay attention to your image. There are differences between men and women." Yi immediately pulled his hand back and said with a slightly blushing face. In this year, Yi has figured out Mobius.

Mebius watched Yi's movements, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Yi, you're still so shy, a pure boy?"

"Doctor!" Yi said with resentment.

"Okay, okay, remember to pack your things. We will be heading to Mu Continent soon. We will also meet our new companion in the laboratory. She is a cute girl." Mebius said to the chess player.

"I understand." After saying that, Yi also began to look forward to new companions and the place that all scholars yearn for - Mu Continent.
