Chapter 369: The Collapse is over? Temporarily (1)
At this moment, our Alicia is with her friends, who are the other members of the Fire Chaser team.
Alicia and the others came to Zhongli's room, and it seemed that they didn't find anything related to Tianhe. But it could be seen that the other party was hiding very deeply and didn't intend to expose himself now.
However, although they have very little evidence at this time, it is not enough to support them to point out that Zhongli is Tianhe. But their time is limited. At present, they can only use special methods to make Tianhe reveal his identity himself.
So everyone waited quietly in the house for Zhongli to return to the room.
On the other side, after Zhongli finished washing the dishes, he found that only Hu Tao, Keqing, and Ye Lan were left in the living room. Did Alicia and the others go back to their rooms? That shouldn't be the case. It's not time to go to bed yet.
"So, Master Hu, where are Alicia and the others? It's still early, have they returned to their rooms?"
Zhongli had a bad feeling in his heart. He looked at Master Hu and wanted to confirm with them.
Hu Tao waved her hands. She wanted Zhongli to be patient and not worry about Alicia and the others for now.
Hu Tao stood up and pulled Ke Qing to sit beside her. Our Hu Tao said to Zhong Li earnestly.
"Aiya, guest Zhongli. At this time, you should not worry about Alicia and the others. Talk to us first. Look, everyone here in Wangsheng Hall is from your International Column. As the [Emperor of Rock] of the International Column, you must explain yourself."
Hu Tao pointed at [Yu Heng Star] Keqing and [Tian Shu Star] Ye Lan beside her. But she didn't look angry, instead she looked at her with a smile. Hu Tao wanted to hear Zhong Li's explanation, otherwise, why would she take the initiative to confront Keqing and Ye Lan.
Zhongli spread his hands and began to explain to them, "Master, I... can explain to you. Well... Actually, I did send them to the Hall of Rebirth. On the one hand, whether it is Keqing or Ye Lan, their strength is far from enough. Sooner or later, this place will collapse, and I can't change it. Civilization is progressing, and I don't want to talk about big principles.
Therefore, I need to train them individually and let them stay by my side. After that, they will leave the Hall of Rebirth to perform some tasks. Although I don't want to reveal my identity, it seems that my worries are unnecessary now. I'm afraid that Ai Li and the others have already seen my identity. "
Walnut poked Zhongli's face and said, "Oh, so you knew that too. The Herrscher of the End, who destroyed the previous civilization, has now become a guest of this hall master. No matter who hears this, they can't believe it, but now no matter how you look at it, it seems very dreamy."
Ye Lan now obviously doesn’t know that Zhongli is the Herrscher of the End. She looks a little confused.
After all, Ye Lan only knew that she would have to fight against Honkai in the future, and would definitely have to face the Herrscher. But she didn't expect that her boss was actually an End Herrscher, which really surprised her.
Ye Lan looked at Keqing and found that she was not surprised at all when she heard this. She actually knew about this. Could it be that the Wangsheng Hall was the only one who didn't know about it?
"Master, please give me some face. I am just an ordinary guest official now." Zhongli was a little helpless, but what Master Hu said was indeed right. Anyone who heard this would find it extremely dreamy.
Keqing also spoke at this time, and she expressed the thoughts of many people present, "Um, Emperor... I want to ask, in the future, will you choose to destroy this civilization? In the future, will you stay in this world? If you want to leave, can you take us with you?"
"I..." Zhongli couldn't give them a promise. After all, he didn't know which world he would go to in the future. However, Zhongli still gave them his answer.
"I will not choose to destroy this civilization. I see hope in it. However, I will hand over the authority of the Herrscher of the End to someone else. However, the International Brigade will still be preserved. In the future, I will leave this world, and I cannot take anyone with me. I am very sorry."
"..." After hearing Zhongli's answer, everyone fell silent. They said they were unwilling to accept it. But this day will come sooner or later, and they have to be mentally prepared. Keqing was silent for a long time, but she finally spoke her mind.
"Emperor, as the [Yuheng Star], I will fulfill my duties within the International Column. However, in the future, after you leave this world and I relieve myself of my duties, I will definitely look for you. No matter which world you go to, I will find you. Even if you lose your memory and forget me, I will find you back."
"Hehe, then Miss Keqing, you must bring me along at that time. After all, I also have to go and get my guest official back. Miss Ye Lan, what about you?" Hu Tao looked at Ye Lan without holding any grudges. Anyway, she was mentally prepared now.
"As for me, although I have no experience of sailing outside the world, this is still a challenge for me. Well... I think it's okay." Ye Lan expressed her thoughts. She also didn't want Zhongli to leave.
Hu Tao patted Zhongli on the shoulder and said, "Keqing, listen to this, so many people don't want you to leave. If you leave, then we have to leave this world to find you. We don't ask you to stay here, but you have to give us a contact method.
We know where to find you, it might be far away from here, but we don’t care.”
"Well... Thank you. I promised to give you a way to contact me on the day I leave. If I don't reply, you can still find my current location and not be like a headless fly in the universe."
Zhongli thanked them, saying that he could still do this. Moreover, he would come back here one day and reunite with them.
After spending some time with Hu Tao, Ke Qing, and Ye Lan, they returned to their rooms contentedly. Zhong Li came to his room, hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the door and walked in. To be continued...
