Chapter 273

"You want the beacon of the Key of the Thousand Worlds; could it be that you intend to head to the Imaginary Tree?" Kevin asked with a frown of surprise.

The Second Divine Key, the Key of the Thousand Worlds, can create a gate leading to the Imaginary Tree; its zero-rated power can even open a passage to the Imaginary Tree.

But for a mortal—no, even for a Herrscher—heading to the Imaginary Tree is a path to certain death. Kevin looked at Bai Mou, who was positive, sunny, optimistic, and upward-looking, and he didn't look like someone seeking death at all.

"Heading to the Imaginary Tree, huh? Hehe~ That is indeed a goal worth yearning for."

Bai Ge said with his eyes slightly narrowed in excitement.

What is the Imaginary Tree?

It is the law of all things, the eternal instant!

The place where all essence and roots are formed!

The place where all truths and laws are born!

As long as one can touch the Imaginary Tree, even for a single instant, one can rewrite the world into whatever shape one desires.

"Once I have sufficient certainty, I will definitely give it a try."

Bai Ge said with a smile.

Kevin moved slightly further away from him.

In Bai Ge's eyes at this moment, he saw a familiar madness, the kind of madness similar to Mobius'.

The Herrschers of this world are undoubtedly strong.

But a Herrscher is, after all, a part of the Cocoon of Finality, and the Cocoon of Finality belongs to a part of the Imaginary Tree. Looking across the entire timeline of Honkai, only Otto Apocalypse would eventually incarnate as a False God and reach the Imaginary Tree in the future!

And the authority of the Imaginary Tree.

That is a level far beyond the Cocoon of Finality!

To tell the truth, Bai Ge asking Kevin for the beacon of the Key of the Thousand Worlds was specifically to throw it to Otto.

He would even help Otto walk this path, then find a way to observe this process, understand this process, and ultimately find a more perfect way to master it!

In the end, he would also go to charge at the Imaginary Tree himself, and not as a False God, but as a True God who transcends it!

This was one of the ultimate goals that Bai Ge had formed in his heart after transmigrating to this world!

"……It seems my understanding of you is still insufficient."

Kevin re-examined Bai Ge and said.

One must know that even in their previous civilization, their goal was merely set upon the Cocoon of Finality.

Yet the goal of the youth before him was the Imaginary Tree.

Although the possibility of success... one in a billion is an overestimation, if he could truly master the authority of the Imaginary Tree, then defeating Honkai would be a trivial matter.

"Alright, for now, it's just a thought. The reason I'm asking you for the beacon of the Key of the Thousand Worlds is, of course, for my own use, and besides, it's useless for you to keep it anyway."

"No, I need a definite reason. Although the beacon is useless to me, its value is undeniable."

"Tsk! We've already shared a bowl of noodles together; can't you have a little trust?"

Bai Ge said with dissatisfaction. He felt that the favorability points from these past two chapters were wasted for nothing. Is this big ice stick really only approachable if he takes out Su's gender-bent photos?

Kevin expressionlessly took out a certain golden device, which emitted an aura similar to that of the Herrscher of the Void.

Undoubtedly, this was the beacon of the Key of the Thousand Worlds.

"Hey~ Fine, I'll tell you. The beacon of the Key of the Thousand Worlds can help our new civilization pass the hurdle of the Herrscher of Binding without casualties, so are you going to give it to me or not?"

Bai Ge crossed his arms, looking helpless as if he couldn't stand Kevin, not knowing that Kevin was shocked once again at this moment.

Pass the Herrscher of Binding without casualties?

These short eight words made his brain tremble.

Kevin thought of the tragedy of Binding in the previous civilization, that miserable victory barely exchanged for by the sacrifice of almost all the Fusion Warriors.

Facing the Herrscher of Binding's ability, which could be called unsolvable, even now, Kevin could not think of a perfect solution.

He looked down at the beacon of the Key of the Thousand Worlds in his hand, his grip tightening slightly on the hand holding it.

Even though this era did not belong to him, Kevin did not want such a tragedy to happen again, therefore...

"Fine, then I'll give it to you."

"Mm, thank you."

"No need. I sincerely hope the current civilization can accomplish the great feat you spoke of, passing the Herrscher of Binding without casualties. If the beacon can truly help you achieve that, then giving it to you is a good thing."

Kevin shook his head and said earnestly.

In any case, even if he wanted to execute the Stigmata Project, he would have to clear all the Herrschers of the current civilization, and the difficulty of the Herrscher of Binding hurdle was so great that even if Kevin acted personally, he would have to pay a price.

If the price of the beacon of the Key of the Thousand Worlds could allow them to pass this most difficult hurdle without casualties, then in Kevin's view, it was well worth it!

However, what he did not know was.
