Chapter 1281

~6 min read 1,138 words

The players had actually all guessed it.

As Ancestor Kaiwen, who bears the title of 【Deliverer】, he certainly would not want the final victory to be achieved through the 【Stigmata Project】.

The reason Mei helped Kiana and the others... was to imprison all the Herrschers, yet without restricting their freedom.

Perhaps... he really was looking forward to Kiana and the others being able to create a miracle.

The reason it is called a 【Miracle】 is because Ancestor Kaiwen knows very well just how difficult it is to transcend the Finality.

So this is the reason he would be so lonely and desperate???

Could it be that Immortal Fu Hua also guessed the other party's thoughts?

Therefore, she said that Ancestor Kaiwen was choosing his 【Burial Ground】; after all, this place clearly has incomparable and significant meaning to Ancestor Kaiwen.

After taking a deep breath, Immortal Fu Hua said in a deep voice:

"The reason I came here to find you is precisely to offer you recognition as 【Hua】."

"You have achieved the grand wish of the Moth-Chasing-the-Fire, and you are about to lead humanity to defeat the Honkai."

"On this point, as 【Hua】, I must acknowledge it."

"In the past, I once misunderstood a sentence of Su's; he said..."

"【Not being able to die in the battle of Finality is your greatest regret.】"

"At that time, I thought this simply referred to Dr. Mei—"

"But today I finally understood completely what this 【Regret】 also included."

"At the moment of becoming the victor... you will also personally kill that self who bears the title of 【Deliverer】."

Ancestor Kaiwen: "..."

He did not refute, and at this moment, he also understood the other purpose of Hua coming here to find him—

Besides being his companion and chatting with him... Hua would also, as 【Immortal Fu Hua】, stand on the opposite side of him.

For Ancestor Kaiwen, this was another major blow.

But at the same time, he also understood Hua's approach.

After all, the other party is different from him.

【Hua】 had long since integrated into this generation.

"So, Immortal Fu Hua..." At this point, Ancestor Kaiwen finally addressed her by her current-generation name.

"Friend or enemy, choose..."

Without a doubt, the two of them started fighting.

And the ripples of the battle also reached Kiana and the others.

However, the scene shifted here once again, returning to the World Bubble, to Dr. Mei's side.

Following a long-familiar path, Prometheus and Dr. Mei met for the 【Last Time】 at this moment.

In the conversation between the two, a fact was revealed that left the audience incredibly shocked, yet also feeling emo...

"In the past, when we were able to move freely—"

"Every year on this day, no matter how important things were, you would abandon them and come here alone, yet do nothing."

Prometheus's words made the players naturally think of the Ancestor Kaiwen in the main world.

Immortal Fu Hua just said that Ancestor Kaiwen would also abandon everything on this day and go to a certain place on the moon to sit alone for the whole day.

He and Dr. Mei are...

Accompanying each other across a world???

Soon, Dr. Mei gave an explanation.

Back then, Dr. Mei of the main world discovered that the Herrscher of Finality might 【split】 some World Bubbles from the main world, so she shared this discovery with Ancestor Kaiwen immediately.

Although Ancestor Kaiwen didn't understand anything at the time, he discovered a detail that Dr. Mei had overlooked.

Ancestor Kaiwen brought up a conjecture at the time and made a promise—

【If in the future, any one of us can survive after the Finality, then that person will come here on this day every year... the day I met you, and stay quietly for a day.】

Ancestor Kaiwen believed that since World Bubbles would be created because of the 【Finality】's destruction of the world, then the versions of himself and Mei in the World Bubbles might also remember this promise.

And the meaning of this day lies in—crossing endless space and time, Ancestor Kaiwen and Mei... perhaps can accompany the other 【who has lost everything】 in the netherworld.

Just as expected...

Seeing this, the barrage exploded instantly.

Especially those more emotional female players.

This plot, comparable to a tragic romance, is also the part that touches them the most.

It is just like the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

But Mei and Ancestor Kaiwen are even more miserable; at least the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can still meet once a year on the Qixi Festival.

While Ancestor Kaiwen and Mei are separated by life and death forever.

And a simple promise, Ancestor Kaiwen and Mei have remembered for fifty thousand years, and have never missed it.

Even if Ancestor Kaiwen doesn't know if she in the World Bubble remembers this promise, he still earnestly fulfills the promise he made.

【Pain... too much pain!】

【Woooooo...】

【Romantic, but also so miserable~~QAQ】

【Ancestor Kaiwen clearly knows that Dr. Mei is already dead, and she in the World Bubble is not her either QAQ】

【Mei also knows that she is just a shadow of the main world's Mei, but she still remembered this promise QAQ】

But things did not stop there.

Through Prometheus's subsequent words, it can be learned.

The reason Dr. Mei was so anxious to send Yayi and the others out, besides buying them time, had another main purpose—

Because this World Bubble would eventually return to the main world, at that moment, she had a certain chance to let her appearance appear in the main world for an instant at the very last moment when the World Bubble completely dissipated and merged.

And on this day, as long as she stood at the place Ancestor Kaiwen had agreed upon, she would have a chance to let Ancestor Kaiwen see her one last time.

But...

Generally speaking, before the world fusion is completed, Dr. Mei would completely dissipate, so how could she meet Ancestor Kaiwen??

Although the success rate of such a thing is almost close to zero... but Dr. Mei still wanted to try it.

Anyway, she also said before... whether it dissipates in fourteen days or in four hours... it makes no difference to her.

"And Dr. Mei... I must point out one thing."

"For someone who possesses 【The First Key】, this is completely meaningless. If he has the corresponding will, he can actively do all of this at any time."

"The way his World Serpent contacts us and makes us 【act as tools】 itself—is enough to show that his level of cognition of this world is no longer 【ignorant】."

The subtext of Prometheus's words is that—Ancestor Kaiwen actually never regarded Dr. Mei in this World Bubble as the real Doctor.

After all, he has The First Key...
