Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 383 Contradictory Choice and Existence

"And what are you?"

"Me? I am Kallen Kaslana's powerlessness and cowardice, and her tiny conscience."

Kallen smiled self-deprecatingly: "I once had a close friend who I grew up with. In order to prevent me from joining the battle against Honkai, he participated in inhumane experiments."

"At that time, I denounced his stupidity and madness and abandoned my mission to escape to this remote Far East. But now, looking back, I think I was the stupid one..."

"But I don't regret the decision I made. I can only understand his state of mind to some extent. How crazy can a person be for love? He can abandon his rationality and conscience, and even his resistance to touching taboos. How can I, as a person like him, accuse him of being paranoid and ruthless?"

"So, what does this have to do with your desire to seize the [Hungry Ghost Realm]?" Xia continued to press the issue.

"Because I want to eradicate the root of that tragedy, and if my speculation is correct, the ability of the Hungry Ghost Realm is necessary to do this."

As if she had sensed the other party's thoughts, Kallen did not expose them: "But the power of this curse is indeed somewhat beyond my expectations. It seems that there is no way to understand its power without experiencing it with your own body."

"What... do you want to do?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to try what Raiden Mei couldn't do."

Seeing that Kallen also wanted to stuff the original curse seal of the hungry ghost realm into her own body, Xia became anxious and shouted quickly.

"Wait! Although I don't know what you want to do, you have seen Ming's methods. Once he settles down Raiden Mei, do you think your plan will succeed? Also, are you unwilling to wait any longer? Ming may understand you and help you, or think of the worst case scenario. Ming may have already figured out your plan."

"..."

"What you said does make sense."

Kallen nodded slowly and admitted undeniably: "He is from another world. He has endless means and is deep and powerful. Maybe he can really help me."

Just when Xia was about to breathe a sigh of relief, her originally relaxed nerves suddenly tensed up again. She heard Kallen muttering to herself as if she had given up on herself: "But, there is no one by my side anymore. The soul transfer experiment..."

“Forget it. With Lord Ming here, even someone like Raiden Mei couldn’t succeed, so how could I? Regardless of whether he figured out my plan or not, I have to complete what I should do and completely destroy the Herrscher of Corrosion... If I fail, then he can do it.”

"You are clearly committing suicide. Hand over the seals to me. The original copy of the Six Laws of the Outer Path will restore these seals to their original form."

Kasumi walked towards Kallen, who did not stop her, but clenched her fist and retorted: "But if you do this, the seal of the Herrscher will disappear completely, and the residents of Yae Town will have to face the same fear as a hundred years ago."

Xia's tone was harsh, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed: "Are you still saying this? How long do you want to use this lame excuse?"

Kallen blinked: "Excuse? No, this..."

However, Kasumi interrupted Karen directly: "This reason is not false at all, and it is indeed from your heart, but it is not all, right? If the you who exist at this moment is indeed the extension of the past as you said before, and the countless you named Karen are gathered together, then from your previous remarks, it is also a state of multiple souls in one body."

"Then this must also include Kallen, who violated the taboo for her beloved, and you who finally accepted yourself. If it was just out of a pure sense of responsibility to "protect the people", you could just defeat the Herrscher who broke the seal once more, regardless of your life. However, you seem to be afraid of something other than the Herrscher breaking the seal, and even want to absorb the original curse of the evil spirit for this reason. What are you hiding?"

"......"

"I didn't expect that I would be seen through to this extent. Sure enough, I still can't beat you? Hehehe..."

Kallen smiled bitterly three times, then her face turned grim. In front of Xia's surprised look, she slammed the original curse seal of the Hungry Ghost Realm on her chest and absorbed it into her body without any hesitation.

“Ahhh, Aaaaaaaaaaa——!”

As the curse seal completely merged into her chest, Kallen leaned forward and let out a painful roar.

The surrounding space began to fluctuate unsteadily, and the next moment, a dark crack suddenly appeared behind Kallen... So this was how it should be.

However, things went against her wishes. Kallen's expression, which was originally distorted by pain, suddenly turned into surprise. She was completely unable to control her body and could not even make a sound. The pain in her body began to gradually dissipate, but the original curse of the hungry ghost realm also emerged from her chest and floated in the air.

Afterwards, the hungry ghost floated in one direction as if receiving an order, and was held in the right hand of a young girl.

Xia and Kallen cast their eyes towards the girl, and saw that she had white teeth, cherry lips, a slim figure, skin as white as snow, a pretty face, slightly twinkling violet eyes, and lush, fluffy white hair with a little violet hair, which was extremely moving.

"Who is it?!" Karen asked subconsciously.

The girl smiled sweetly, with stars twinkling in her eyes: "The person next to Jiang Ming is Mistrylin."

After introducing herself, she tilted her head slightly to look at Yae Rin beside her, and said with a smile: "Sister Rin, how about the method I just activated? That is the time universe rule. I begged and persuaded Jiang Ming for a long time before he agreed to let me practice this with my seventh universe rule."

Yae Rin followed her lead, smiled and gave a thumbs up: "Sister Mistylin's talent is really amazing. I'm afraid she is the second best person besides Brother Jiang Ming, right?"

Mistellin sighed instead: "Alas, talent and so on are nothing, they are just some tricks to cheat and play tricks. As for the rules of time and universe, it was Jiang Ming who condensed the true meaning of time and gave it to me."

Although the Great Dream Divine Mind Roaming Technique allows Misterine to wander through many dreams and explore the mysteries of the rules of the universe, there are very few people who practice the rules of the universe at this time, and there is almost no way for her to explore dreams and gain the corresponding realm improvement.

You must know that if you want to explore dreams, you must first find dreams, otherwise everything is just nonsense.
