Chapter 1124
Marvel Universe.
"The whole segment collapsed."
Kuier almost sprayed a mouthful of beer from laughing.
"Um, if she suddenly interrupts the ritual, will it have a bad effect on the trial?" Mantis nervously rubbed her fingers.
"Olonis shouldn't mind this." Gamora walked over, "Xing's body can fully accommodate even the cancer of myriad worlds, so the local gods' trial will surely withstand it; we might as well wonder what ability Xing will gain after this trial ends."
"Honestly, Olonis's prayer itself is already strong; this ability corresponds to part of the Time Stone's application, able to rewind an object's time. If Xing gains this ability after becoming a demigod, tsk tsk..."
Rocket Raccoon smacked its lips. It slightly imagined back when, on the Luofu Immortal Vessel, after the Jianmu grew, Xing used Olonis's prayer to make the Jianmu shrink again…… At that point, Rocket Raccoon guessed even Phantom would be startled.
"But even today we still haven't figured out which path's power Olonis's prayer belongs to." Nebula crossed her arms and said coldly, "... Is it memory? But the power shown by the prayer is related to time. In the universe, the only path related to time should be 【End】, right?"
It's a pity that, as of now, their understanding of the 【End】 path is limited to fragmented words from the simulation universe; the information is simply too scarce.
"I don't really get it either, but why worry so much?" Kuier shrugged, "As long as it's usable power, why dig into its roots? I'm just afraid that when they finish their so-called 'Recreation of the World', Xing's demigod power will be taken back by Wengfalusi, and that would be awkward."
——
"These few words are just to make the prayer sound more solemn. Please focus your spirit…… and offer the 'Fire Seed'."
"After sinking the Fire Seed of Ages into the pool, the celestial chronicle totem finally lit up, accompanied by Olonis's low whisper echoing long in the vortex's heart."
"Olonis… its soul has been waiting for a long time."
"Aglaea: "Perhaps it is also silently awaiting the arrival of a successor.""
At last the time to depart arrived; Xing finally waved back at everyone and loudly announced, "I love you!"
"……Uh." Danheng helplessly pressed his forehead: "The emotions aren't set up yet; save the farewell words for later."
Accompanied by Olonis's low whisper, Xing and Mimi slowly entered the trial. After seeing off a person and a holy beast, Bai'e blessed: "Although Xing likes to joke at inappropriate times, her resolve is as steadfast as the Golden Lineage's. She will surely succeed."
As he spoke, his tone shifted, looking toward Aglaea to the side: "During her absence, Aglaea… I want to talk with you."
"……"
Aglaea seemed unsurprised; she softly sighed: "Go ahead, I'm listening."
……
Meanwhile, inside the trial's secret realm.
"Pat… pat……"
In a patch of darkness, Xing felt a pair of furry paws patting her face, from her cheek all the way to her forehead; the soft pads pressed against her skin, leaving a fleeting warmth.
"Wake up… Xing."
Xing barely opened her eyelids, only to see Mimi floating right before her eyes.
"How do you feel?"
Wait… what's going on?
Watching Mimi speak human words, Xing's originally dazed mind instantly cleared.
"How can you talk?!"
Mimi happily put her hands on her hips: "Yeah, I also think it's amazing! Hey hey hey, one two three, hey hey hey, one two three……
——
Honkai 3.
Hmm…… this line is missing something~
Ailixiya somehow produced a trumpet, cleared her throat, and loudly shouted into it: "Hey hey hey, one two three, hey hey hey, one two three…… Mhm, now it's right♪
Everyone turned their gaze to the other end of the sofa, where Ailixiya sat.
"……How come it's so similar? Could Ailixiya's isotopic counterpart not be Xilian?" Eden reacted first. At first she only thought Mimi's way of speaking was somewhat like Aili's, but now…… she had to reconsider this issue.
Parduo quickly turned her head to glance at Ailixiya, then swiftly turned back to check the sky, repeating this three or four times before finally confirming: "Aili sis, turns out your isotopic counterpart is not just a person, but also a pink flying rabbit!"
"Interesting." Meibiwusi's vertical pupils narrowed slightly: "Without a doubt, Xilian is definitely your isotopic counterpart, but what's the deal with this Mimi?"
"Come on, can't they both be?"
Ailixiya smiled as she rose from the sofa: "Xilian or Mimi, maybe both are her isotopic counterparts? As a cute girl, she unfortunately died at the hands of a black-clad swordsman, then reincarnated…… becoming an equally cute Mimi——
Aili playfully blinked: "Of course, it's also possible that memories from a past life weren't forgotten during rebirth; now, following Xing on her journey through Wengfalusi, she's remembered it all~
Parduo couldn't help but scratch her head: "Uh… although it sounds absurd, there seems to be no more reasonable explanation."
——
"Mimi seemed surprised too, clapping a hand over her mouth: "Mwah… such a cute voice! It must be because she gathered many memories; her growth far exceeds expectations!"
"Moreover, listen—— the Titan's words have become clear as well."
Mimi pointed at the golden large eyes in the distant mist, only hearing Oluonisi's voice gently reverberating inside the narrow trial space.
"Mother… mother… it hurts so much… have I reached the end? The lonely years… will they end?"
"Oluonisi… it's so pitiful, the black cloak stole its fire seed, and it can only wait alone in such a cramped place…… we will help it ease its pain, right?"
"Mother… where…?"
Mimi couldn't help but ask curiously: "Mother… who exactly is it calling?"
Xing approached Oluonisi, and the other instantly recognized her: "You… you… I remember you. Heavenly Father… gazed upon you…… Mother… is calling you……"
"Heavenly Father… is it Furui?" Xing asked tentatively.
However, the Titan's words were indistinct; each syllable that came from beyond the mist seemed to be coated with a layer of icy cold—symbolizing the icy cold of memory.
Oluonisi: "Heavenly Father… has chosen you……"
"Who… is your mother?"
Oluonisi did not directly answer; its resonant voice penetrated the golden mist, reaching the cliff wall in the faraway unseen place, reflecting, and then transmitted to Xing's ears in the form of Huixiang. She seemed to capture from the echo… an infant's wail.
