The black castle stands in the depths of the dead woods, and the clouds above are thicker and darker than other places, so that the environment has been almost night for a long time.

In the entire forest of death, the castle is surrounded by forbidden areas that all undead will not set foot on. The breath of the owner here makes them not dare to offend at all.

The castle was only lit with a few faint rays of light.

In the pure darkness, the dim light added a strange aura to it.

Like bait, it lures ignorant people into the hunting range of giant beasts.

The space in front of the castle suddenly appeared with ripples like water waves, and a figure wrapped in black robes appeared out of thin air.

The gate stood quietly, the pure black metal seemed to be able to engulf even the light, and the twisted thorns were intertwined with the bones.

"The living stop, here is... the master."

The black fence gate woke up from its slumber, and just as he was about to say the set line, he felt a familiar breath, and his voice and body trembled.

"Open the door."

"Yes."

The door opened slowly with a sour squeak.

The blood-devouring flowers planted in the clearings of the castle also drooped down, expressing their submission to the owner of the castle.

When Elizabeth came to the castle, the dusty solid wood door slowly opened.

"Lord Duke."

The ghost girl whose body was translucent bowed slightly to welcome the arrival of the master here.

"Um."

Elizabeth nodded, but her steps did not stop.

The interior of the castle was dark and quiet, and the ethereal singing and music came from far away, with a strange and cold atmosphere.

Silver-white armor stood quietly on both sides of the corridor, and the blade of the spear even had dark brown stains.

The broken doll is placed on the windowsill, and a ball is slowly rolling on the ground...

After Elizabeth left, the rolling ball took a sigh of relief, and was picked up by a headless statue standing in the corner and pressed against her neck.

The armor standing upright relaxed, and the chandelier also opened its eyes.

But in just a short moment, the entire castle seemed to come alive, and whispers echoed.

"The master is finally back."

"It is said that the master followed the tide to the land of chaos."

"Hehehehe, is that the reason for the Holy Light the day before yesterday?"

"What holy light, that is not holy light at all, and it has no effect on the undead at all."

"I heard Ruo Ye say that only the lives eroded by the Honkai will be affected, and the Honkai energy in the air has completely subsided."

"…"

"...According to the observed data, there was a huge fluctuation in the magic power of the world at the moment when the rays of light erupted, and the collapse that strayed everywhere was also within the scope of influence."

"In addition to the initial increase in the content concentration, it dropped by 50% in just a few breaths, and then began to drop rapidly with the passage of time, until only 10% of the normal level remained. The rate is gradually slowing down.”

"Until today, the concentration is less than 1% compared to the past, and I believe it will not be possible to monitor it soon."

Wakaba stood beside Elizabeth, telling all kinds of things that had happened these days.

Elizabeth listened quietly.

At this time, in her heart, she couldn't help but give birth to a speculation that she had never had before.

Maybe the collapse is there from beginning to end.

The outbreak of natural disasters is just a concrete manifestation of the dramatic increase in its energy concentration.

Even if the light that erupted from Chaos Land suppressed it again, it was just suppression.

As before, the collapse is always there.

When certain conditions are met, it will come back again.

It was just a guess, but it convinced Elizabeth that it was likely to be the case.

"Ruo Ye, do you think Honkai Energy will disappear completely?" Elizabeth asked suddenly.

Ruo Ye was startled, thinking about the question Elizabeth asked.

After a long time, she shook her head gently: "Probably not."

"why?"

"According to the conclusion of the data analysis, Honkai energy may belong to the same part of the world as magic power. Our power is far from the level of arbitrarily distorting the rules of the world. That is the domain of gods."

"Can the gods do it?"

Elizabeth remembered something. On the way to the Chaos Land, Oxia once asked her some questions.

"Why do you think we were born?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Simply put, it's humans, elves, orcs, dwarves, etc., etc., all the intelligent life of Kolo, how did they appear in this world?"

"of course…"

"Can't tell?"

"Don't you know?"

"Goddess, we are all children of the goddess."

"…"

"Surprised? You'll understand why I said this when you have a chance. As for why we have to experience this, it is the power of another god, or a will that is equal to the power of a god."

"What's the meaning?"

"Guess it?"

Elizabeth breathed a sigh of relief, her palms clenched unconsciously, and talking to Oxia always made her feel angry.

According to the other party's meaning, Honkai is essentially an extension of the power of that unknown will.

The ignition of the first fire can indeed completely suppress it to the extent of almost nothing, but due to the same restrictions on the rank, it cannot be completely eliminated after all.

Of course, if the goddess shot herself, that's another story.

"Lord Duke? Lord Duke?"

Ruo Ye's words brought Elizabeth's thoughts back to reality.

"I think it should be possible if the gods did it in person." Ruo Ye repeated his answer.

"Yeah." Elizabeth nodded.

Ruo Ye didn't know what she meant, whether it meant she knew or agreed with her answer.

"What if it's the boss?" Elizabeth asked again.

"Boss?" Ruo Ye blinked, unable to react for a while.

"The boss himself took action, can this be done?"

"It might work."

Ruo Ye's words were somewhat uncertain.

He can easily cross the barriers of the world, and even created "outsiders". He also opened the Hearthstone Tavern, a shop with out-of-the-ordinary goods, calling himself "an ordinary owner of interest"...

Ruoye couldn't see through Luochuan.

Perhaps, he does have the power of the gods.

But Ruo Ye never saw the scene where the boss shot, so he couldn't make a firm judgment directly.

Elizabeth laughed.

"By the way, there will be a new movie showing at the Opera House in the City of Steel tonight. Is the Duke going to watch it?" Ruo Ye suddenly remembered something.

"The new movie? What's it called?"

"Second speed of five centimeters."
