Chapter 62: Chapter 62: A Hundred Years of Obsession! The End of Mobius!
Chapter 62: A Hundred Years of Obsession! The End of Mobius!
Finally, the much-anticipated new video was released to the entire Internet.
Ordinary people who were originally doing various things took out their mobile phones at the first moment, looked at the scenes in the video excitedly, and looked forward to the beginning of the story.
The first scene in the video.
It was an isolated island in the midst of ruins.
Death and silence enveloped everything.
However, in a corner of the ruins, a flower is blooming, as if symbolizing some new concept, blooming on the earth.
[A hundred years later, this is the land after the apocalypse, the last ruins of the human race against the Honkai organization, the Fire Moth.]
[Humanity has persisted in the face of Honkai for decades, but finally could not withstand the attack of the Herrscher of the End, and ushered in the final destruction]
[Death came to the earth and destroyed everything]
[However, human civilization was not destroyed]
[Under the arrangement of Fire Moth scientist Mebius, a large number of humans survived by hiding underground and changing their life forms]
[After several decades, with the help of calculations on the Herrscher of the End and exploration of the laws, Mobius spent a long life and finally found the answer she had been searching for nearly a hundred years at the end of her life.]
[This will be the moment when human wisdom surpasses that of God]
[This will be the moment when mankind transcends death and defeats fate]
[Just like the agreement that Mobius made with Mo Chen in the end]
[——I will seize the power of God and meet you in the world after death]
…
"What the hell?!"
When seeing the video for the first time, not only Bronya was shocked, but even Mo Chen's eyes widened, shocked by the fire moths still remaining in the ruins.
Although Mobius in this world line failed to defeat the Honkai, she did lead a part of humanity to survive in the world after the Honkai ended.
Although the world had become a wasteland, with the civilization of mankind at that time, it was not difficult to build a home in such a world.
In her own way, Mobius led humanity to "defeat" the Honkai.
However, it is obvious that Mobius's goal is not to fight against Honkai, and she has never thought about fighting for humanity to defeat Honkai.
She has persisted until now only to achieve her own goal.
"Dr. Mobius has persisted alone for so long, she must be very lonely and sad. It's really pitiful to see her like this..." Bronya couldn't help but speak, and she felt empathy for Mobius, who persisted alone in the apocalypse and realized his ideals.
"This..."
Mo Chen was speechless for a moment, feeling that it was extremely absurd.
After all, if Mobius felt lonely and sad, it would be like the sun rising from the west.
Can cold-blooded snakes really have such negative emotions?
Mo Chen expressed great doubt.
At the same time, comments in the video also expressed surprise at the content of the video.
[Fuck! It's updated so quickly?]
[I was just cooking, but halfway through, I suddenly got a surprise]
[Wow, wow, wow, cool! This is so exciting!]
[I never thought that Dr. Mobius would survive the apocalypse for nearly a hundred years. This is too heartbreaking...]
[Can she really achieve her goal and meet Mo Chen again?]
[If these two people meet, I will directly collect and forward the coins]
[+1, if you give me a kiss I will charge you right away!!]
[Wuhu, let's get started quickly!]
I don't know how many people followed the uploader Void Archives. As soon as they saw the video update, they rushed in and started a heated discussion.
…
With everyone's attention, the video officially began.
Mobius, who is now old and wearing a white coat, appeared in the video.
In this worldline, she did not fuse the genes of the Honkai Beast [Shesha] to become a fusion warrior, so she ages at a normal rate.
Although she looks much younger than her actual age due to her special physique and the help of various potions, she still gives people a sense of obvious vicissitudes.
As Elysia said, she has completely become a gloomy, old-fashioned, stay-at-home girl.
"Doctor, do you really want to do this?"
Klein, who had become an armed puppet, walked out from the side, her face full of worry.
She obviously knew Mobius's true purpose and was therefore extremely worried about the other party's next move.
And there was only a faint smile on Mobius' face. The long years had made her emotions increasingly thin, and only a trace of obsession kept her actions going.
It is because of this obsession that she has insisted on living to this day and has been unwilling to change her human identity from beginning to end, facing her final fate with the same attitude as before.
"Life is such a fragile thing..."
"When I was a child, I watched my mother die. She told me that death is not the end of life. People will always continue to exist in this world in some way..."
"I didn't believe it because my reason told me that after death, people would just turn into nothingness, into a wisp of dust in the world, leaving nothing behind..."
"Later, my father became seriously ill and, due to mental distortion, he began to abuse me..."
"I am not in pain, nor do I hate him, because I know that his pain is greater than mine. He chooses to inflict pain on others because he cannot bear the pain..."
"From that day on, I swore that I would make mankind evolve and defeat death..."
"But, I failed in the end."
"Mo Chen... the day that man died, I realized that my wish would never be fulfilled. The individual Mobius died in this world with him that day."
"But I still haven't given up. I'm still yearning for the hope that may exist..."
"Death is not the end. The eternity we pursue really exists in this world..."
Mobius spoke calmly, but few people knew her true face beneath those bottomless pupils.
She witnessed the coming of Honkai time and time again and witnessed the sacrifices that mankind made in order to defeat Honkai.
However, she herself gave up the path of evolution because of her obsession with the past.
However, this does not mean that she has given up her wish or given up on transcending death. It's just that what she wants to transcend is no longer her own death.
Mobius's true wish is simply to revive the only person who matters to her.
For this reason, even a hundred years of time would be as short as a snap of the fingers for her.
"Klein, go and help me prepare that instrument."
Raising her old and dry arms, Mobius walked silently into the ruined research institute.
Klein wanted to go over and help but found that the other party was unwilling to let her help, so she could only take the initiative to debug the instruments in the laboratory.
Mobius had been preparing for this day for a very, very long time.
But she showed no signs of anxiety and just watched the preparations proceed patiently.
"I'm just a scientist. I don't have the same power as them." Mobius looked at the halos emitted by the many instruments in front of her and spoke slowly, "Therefore, I can't forcibly open the gap in time and space with force, and I can't force a breakthrough and enter the realm of the law of imaginary numbers."
"In this case, if the body cannot do something, then use the spirit to do it."
"If a living person cannot accomplish something, then try to accomplish it at the cost of death."
"At the end of death, in that instant, we can connect to a higher dimension."
"In that fraction of a millisecond, we will have the opportunity—"
"To Talk to God!"
