Chapter 1650

Several minutes later, after the light on the screen dissipated.

People were astonished to discover that where there had originally been stars in the distance, only deep darkness remained.

It was as if the previously erupted light had exhausted all the energy in that region ahead.

【Alice:... It's gone. That area affected by the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse"—neither stars nor planets remain.】

【Rhinedottir: Although I had anticipated it, this level of power is truly worthy of a sigh.】

【Dottore: Wonderful, simply wonderful! Is this the masterpiece of a true genius?

Hahaha, it is truly admirable. The Genius Society is indeed the Genius Society; I am still very far from that glory.】

【Signora: It's truly rare to see you admit defeat, Dottore.】

【Dottore: After seeing Dr. Chadwick's masterpiece, it is hard not to concede. However, there is still plenty of time; I will do my best to follow in his footsteps.】

【Tartaglia: Uh, you wouldn't also want to research the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse," would you, Dottore?】

【Morax: In terms of general reason, the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse" is too dangerous. It would be better if such weapons did not appear in the Teyvat continent.】

【The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles: A weapon of this level must never be allowed to exist!】

【Dottore: Oh my, even the Geo Archon and the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles can't sit still? This only proves the value of the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse" even more... No, wait, for a weapon of this level, neither the Geo Archon nor the Sustainer can even begin to measure its value!】

【Dottore: Rest assured, my research direction is far removed from Dr. Chadwick's, so I will not specifically set out to create another "Imaginary Collapse Pulse." Compared to technology like the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse," I am more inclined toward biotechnology.】

【Morax: Is that so? I will be watching you, Dottore.】

【The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles: Even if the direction is different, technology of the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse" level must never appear on the Teyvat continent, absolutely not!】

【Dottore: The Geo Archon and the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, who were just dueling not long ago, are going to join forces to watch me? This is truly an honor, hehe.】

The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles clenched her fists while watching Dottore's message, then looked at The Knave's live stream with trepidation.

Although separated by the screen in front of The Knave and the screens of the Teyvat forum.

The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles still felt fear at the power displayed by the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse."

A single shot could destroy stars; if such a weapon were to pass by the Teyvat continent, Teyvat would likely face the danger of destruction.

To the point that the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles even felt that Morax drawing power from outside Teyvat wasn't such a big deal anymore.

At least Morax drawing on the power of Preservation was still for the sake of protecting a corner of the Teyvat continent.

But Dottore—if this madman were to research something, he might truly bring a devastating catastrophe to Teyvat.

"Luo Feng's arrival is a foregone conclusion. To prevent someone like Dottore from bringing disaster to Teyvat."

"Perhaps I should also actively contact the power of the Paths, just like the Geo Archon and the Anemo Archon."

"At least for now, it seems the power of the Paths does not bring negative influences to Teyvat like the Abyss does."

The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles muttered to herself, taking one more look at the cosmic void left behind by the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse."

"If I possessed the power of the Paths, when facing a disaster of this level."

"At least Teyvat would have more opportunities."

Having said that, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles clearly understood that unless one walked far enough on various Paths like Luo Feng.

Otherwise, even someone like Morax, who had already walked a distance on the Path of Preservation, would have no chance against the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse."

But at least, when facing threats from smaller universes, the Teyvat continent could have a glimmer of hope.

She took a deep breath, turned her head to look at the Throne of the Heavenly Principles, and whispered:

"If you were to wake up, would you make such a decision, Heavenly Principles?"

【Kaveh: I really don't understand. Chadwick was able to research a weapon of the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse" level; how did he end up being locked up by the Hounds of Penacony?】

【Dehya: Exactly! With such technology as a foundation, no matter how he lived, he shouldn't have ended up in his current state. People might curse him because of the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse," but they should also fear him, right?】

【Xilonen: Could it be that "The Family," like the Interastral Peace Corporation, holds leverage over Chadwick, which is why they could imprison him in Penacony?】

【Lisa: Looking at Chadwick's current state, it seems his memories have also been tampered with.】

【Dori: Even the people from the Interastral Peace Corporation didn't go to this extent. How exactly did "The Family" do it? Or rather, did Chadwick experience some other major events, leading him to his current state?】

【Ningguang: Chadwick's memories haven't ended yet; I imagine the upcoming memory display will give us the answer.】

【Beidou: That's right... Wait, what's happening? Why does it feel like the screen is shaking?】

【Jean: Is there a problem with the footage?! No! The scene where Luo Feng and the others are is also shaking!】

"The memory scene is vibrating?"

Black Swan frowned and looked at Luo Feng beside her:

"Lord Luo Feng, is there something wrong with Dr. Chadwick's memory?"

Luo Feng shook his head without speaking, but his eyes were fixed straight on The Knave.

Black Swan followed Luo Feng's gaze and immediately showed a look of sudden realization.

"So it was her."

"It seems the shock she received was too great."

Black Swan whispered.

The Knave was still under Luo Feng's Word Spirit; for her, what had just happened was very likely to affect her as the anchor point for this memory.

When the memory anchor point has a problem, the scene of the memory naturally experiences anomalies.

Black Swan had intended to step in to soothe The Knave's spirit, but after looking at Luo Feng, who seemed to be waiting to see what would happen, she ultimately lowered her hand.

"Is this another test from Luo Feng for The Knave?"

Black Swan whispered softly.

………………

"... In the end, the button for destruction was pressed after all."

The Knave muttered to herself, looking at her own hands.

She felt as if she could see endless blood flowing in her palms.

No matter how she wiped, the blood did not disappear.

"Sure enough, I've killed too many."

The Knave took a deep breath, trying to force herself to calm down.

However, the methods she used to calm herself in the past had no effect at all now.

Instead, The Knave felt her mood becoming increasingly chaotic.

To the point that the surrounding memory scene vibrated even more violently.

Finally, accompanied by a sound like glass shattering, Chadwick's memory scene suddenly dissipated.

Luo Feng, Screwllum, Dr. Ratio, Black Swan, Raiden Ei, and The Knave were forced back to Penacony in the dream, in front of the aged Chadwick.

"... Is it over."

Raiden Ei closed her eyes and sighed slightly.

Although it was The Knave who experienced all that, and it wasn't Inazuma that was destroyed by the "Imaginary Collapse Pulse."

But Raiden Ei still felt sympathy for The Knave.

She didn't understand why, even though The Knave had successfully stepped onto the Path of Preservation, Luo Feng hadn't lifted the Word Spirit on her.

"Luo Feng, you..."

Raiden Ei opened her eyes, wanting to ask Luo Feng, but the scene before her made her swallow the words she wanted to ask.

"This is... the spiritual universe space?"

Raiden Ei's beautiful eyes widened, and she muttered in disbelief.

Suddenly, as if thinking of something, she looked at the huge pillar of light in the distance and quickly locked onto the familiar figure near the pillar.

"Is it really her again?"

Raiden Ei took a deep breath; even she couldn't help but feel surprised at this moment.

If Raiden Ei was like this, there was no need to mention Paimon, Lumine, Furina, and the other Teyvat passengers who had arrived here at the same time.

"No... way, again?"

"Who stepped onto a Path this time?"

"Is it Raiden Ei who is following Luo Feng?"

Paimon looked around and muttered in surprise.

"Raiden Ei and Luo Feng are right behind you, Paimon."

Lumine glanced at Luo Feng and Raiden Ei and said.

Although her words were calm, her trembling eyes indicated that her inner state was completely different.

"It's not Raiden Ei, then who is it?"

"Except for Raiden Ei and The Knave, none of us are by Luo Feng's side." ===== CHAPTER 1651 =====
