"Theresis, ambush him from behind." Xing Chen parried the heavy blow of the great halberd with his black sword, barely holding it off.

Theresis did not speak, but quickly flashed behind the Wendigo, defeating the afterimage from behind.

"Xing Chen, are you alright?" Theresa finished her battle and quickly returned to Xing Chen and Theresis's side.

Xing Chen waved his hand, indicating he was fine.

The Blood Demon Grand Duke and the Wendigo's bodies slowly disappeared, and the three were all puzzled by the situation.

Weren't these two doing well in the Royal Court Council? How did they appear in the Internalized Universe?

"Do you have questions?" Theresis stood behind Xing Chen and Theresa.

"That's right, Brother," Theresa looked at the giant rhombus above her head, "Theoretically, only lives assimilated by Originium should exist in the Internalized Universe. Unless we use special methods, we shouldn't be alive here."

"I don't understand." Theresis shook his head, "Is this closely related to the Sarkaz?"

"What if I told you that all the suffering the Sarkaz have endured until now is merely a speck of dust shaken off by a higher existence?" Theresa summoned a pink speck of dust, which floated gently on her hand.

To Theresa, or Sarkaz of her level, this speck of dust was merely an ordinary Originium Art, but to the ordinary people of Terra, it was an extremely fatal blow.

"If we cannot solve their problems, the suffering of the Sarkaz will only be the beginning." Theresa placed the crown on her head, trying to persuade her brother, "They once possessed countless planets and built a civilization more advanced than ours, but now, we can only glimpse a corner of them from their legacy."

The Seaborn and Originium are merely some of the Pre-civilization's self-salvation methods. The analogy of a robotic vacuum cleaner and a Nanfu battery is not entirely accurate, but it is very vivid.

Without saving the Pre-civilization, Terra is merely delaying its death.

"Someone once said that to me," Theresis looked at Xing Chen and said calmly.

"Theresa and I chose to return to the Military Commission for a simple reason: you and she both want to save the Sarkaz, but you cannot just save the Sarkaz."

Theresa nodded, agreeing with Xing Chen's statement, "It's just that the Sarkaz are currently at a critical juncture of life and death, so we need to resolve some of the most urgent crises first."

In the hearts of Xing Chen and Theresa, they both believed they were not the protagonists of Terra's story. But for the continent of Terra, they could shape a better future.

The current civilization and the Pre-civilization should not be in opposition; they should work together towards the future.

As for how to reconcile them, that is the task of the destined protagonist. Aren't you amazing? Aren't you incredibly powerful? Everyone else, make way, it's your time to shine.

"Theresa, you just need to tell me who I should raise my blade against."

The Pre-civilization was truly too advanced, far exceeding the understanding of their lower civilizations. Many common-sense knowledge points were also unknown mysteries to them.

But fortunately, for the matter of the continent of Terra moving towards tomorrow hand in hand, they only needed to know a part of the answer.

"Xiao Te, I have a premonition." Recalling the appearances of Patriot and Dukare, Xing Chen couldn't help but look at Theresa.

"Hmm, I feel it too." Theresa crossed her hands over her abdomen, smiling as she walked with Xing Chen.

After stepping on the last stair, the surrounding environment suddenly changed.

The giant rhombus above their heads disappeared, and the light became dim.

Theresis and Theresa, the siblings, clutched their heads, seemingly enduring some kind of mental attack.

Xing Chen could roughly guess that this was the closest location to the collective souls, and it was the whispers of the collective souls affecting the two of them.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Xing Chen drew his black sword, plunged it into the floor, and fully released its power.

Immediately after, the three were teleported to another scene.

"Thank you, Xing Chen." Theresa stood up, leaning on Xing Chen's arm, "Where's my brother?"

"I think he's over there." Xing Chen pointed in another direction, where two giant statues stood.

"Are you sure you want to see it?"

"I've already prepared myself mentally."

The two passed through sparse bushes, and Theresis was waiting for them on the other side.

Beneath the statues, two familiar figures were conversing, content that he and Theresis were both familiar with.

Theresa silently listened to their secret conversation, while Xing Chen and Theresis remained silent, standing on either side of the Demon King.

The plan to murder Theresa was not complicated. After listening, Theresa shook her head, asking Xing Chen to lead them forward.

Xing Chen raised his sword and brought it down, and the three arrived inside Rhodes Island.

Xing Chen had experienced this scene half a year ago, and for Theresis, it was only two years ago.

Countless Assassins continuously surged towards the Demon King in the center of the room. The Demon King protected the Cattus in her arms while sending away the Assassins she knew well.

And the man who resembled him stood not far away, watching.

"Sometimes, I wonder why villains always bring up these past scenes. What's the point for people who won't regret anything?"

Theresa made a joke, Theresis didn't respond, and Xing Chen gave two fake laughs.

"On the topic of survival, there are no villains. As long as you survive, it's correct."

Saying that, Xing Chen raised his sword and brought it down again, sending them back to the dim space.

This time, a ray of dawn appeared on the horizon of the space, and a figure was faintly discernible in the distance.

As they got closer, it was, as the three expected, "Theresa."

"We've already met," Theresa extended her hand to "herself."

"Hello," the other "Theresa" also showed a friendly smile, "I've been waiting for you here for a long time."

"Where are the collective souls? My brother, Xing Chen, and I shouldn't have eliminated all of them."

"Here," It was then that Theresa noticed the other party holding a strange sphere in her arms.

"Theresa" handed the sphere, aggregated from the collective souls, to the three. Xing Chen and Theresa jointly gripped the hilt of the black sword and plunged it down forcefully.

The sphere disappeared, and "Theresa" stood in place, awaiting her end.

"I want to ask, who exactly are you?" Xing Chen couldn't help but ask.

"I am one of the Six Heroes of the Sarkaz, the Demon King of Kazdel, the Speaker of Babel... and my brother's sister."

"Then what about me?" Theresa asked.

"You are also Theresa. The moment I died, I felt a strange power, as if I had lost something."

"You mean, I am a part of you?"

"You could say that."

Theresa's identity was clear. As for that strange power, perhaps it was the future Seer and Prythian trying to change the past.

"I believe that the Sarkaz will have a better future in your hands. I am tired, please send me away."

"Theresa" closed her eyes, waiting for the blade to pierce her chest again.

Xing Chen gripped the hilt tightly; he really didn't want to raise his sword against her.

"Now, I fight for the Sarkaz. Staying here will only allow the whispers to continue affecting future generations."

At this moment, Theresis came to his side, telling him with his eyes that if he couldn't do it, he could send his blood relative to rest on his behalf.

"No need," Xing Chen put away his sword, "Perhaps parting is not yet a mandatory choice."
