Zhang Heng's lies were not flawless, but his miraculous abilities and intimate knowledge of Setara made his flaws infinitely smaller. When a person's lies can be proven with the truth, then even if It's a lie, which is no different from the truth.
At this time, Tifa had no doubts about Zhang Heng's identity, but she also believed it nine out of ten. With the color of memories, she slowly told about the world-shaking battle and Alice's life experience. , the encounter between Alice and Claude tells the story of Alice using her life to inspire the 'holy', blocking Sephiroth's power of destruction, and finally dying under Sephiroth's sword.
"Alice is dead...she will never speak again, never laugh again, never cry again, never be angry again..."
Tifa spoke softly, with a hint of hoarseness, recounting those fiery years.
"Claude defeated Sephiroth and Shinra. We thought this would be the rebirth of planetary civilization. Avalanche disbanded. Barrett went to work on the development of new energy sources, while Cloud and I opened a freight company. company, but later, I found out that he had been infected with the disease Star Scar Syndrome... "
“…”
"Two years later, the Cardanju trio obtained Jenova's head above the Shinra Building and summoned Sephiroth again. Cloud used his last strength to defeat him, and life fell from the sky. The rain has washed away the world, and countless people have been cured of Star Scar Syndrome. However, we don't know that this seems to be a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution. Jenova's cells are still lurking. In the fountain of life, Star Scar Syndrome broke out all over the world in an even more violent manner... "
"Just a year ago, Cloud was infected with Star Scar Syndrome again, and finally..." At the end, a trace of crystal tears left the corners of Tifa's eyes, but they were immediately wiped away by her subconscious. She then raised her head and looked at Zhang Heng. There was a strong light in his eyes, "But, I will still live. Life is always full of hope, isn't it?"
Zhang Heng was silent, his heart was already shaken beyond measure...
At this time, he finally understood why this world was judged by the Dimension Star as a plane where civilization has disappeared. The original civilization of the planet has become deformed. Shinra's massive consumption of Mako energy has brought the world to the edge of destruction. Although he was finally stopped by the Avalanche organization, it was as if the building was about to collapse and could not be stopped.
Although the old technological system has been overturned, no one has the means to create a new civilization again.
Not only that, Jenova has infiltrated into the Fountain of Life. Even if the planet desperately resists, it still cannot be expelled from the interior of the planet. Countless humans have become Jenova’s nourishment. Today’s planet has fallen on the edge of destruction and has become a civilization. A plane where the fire is about to go out.
This is the real background of the game.
"In today's avalanche, only me, Yuffie, and this group of orphans are left. The rest of us have lost contact." Tifa sighed, tilted her head, and said with a smile, "However, in People who have survived this disease already have antibodies against Jenova cells. In the future, Jenova's influence will become increasingly shallow and eventually disappear. Will mankind once again usher in the dawn of civilization? "
Zhang Heng got what he wanted to know. He stood up from his chair and bowed, "That's true. Thank you for telling me everything. I just didn't expect that Sister Alice had already been there three years ago." Dead." Zhang Heng's expression showed a trace of regret at the right time, "So, I have really become the last Settra on the planet."
Tifa smiled when she heard this, turned around and walked upstairs, saying as she walked, "However, this planet still needs you to protect it, just like your sister did back then."
"I will." Zhang Heng nodded, but as if he thought of something, a solemn look flashed in his eyes, "Miss Tifa, if I'm not wrong, Xenovia is about to return."
Hearing this, Tifa's steps suddenly stopped, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, within two or three days." Zhang Heng nodded, "This is what the planet told me, so I was eager to find sister Alice, but I didn't expect... This time, I will be the one to replace Alice. Come and protect this world.”
"If that's the case, Avalanche will stand on the same side as you." Tifa turned around and said solemnly.
…
When he walked out of Seventh Heaven, Zhang Heng's eyes suddenly flashed with light. He looked up at the lead-colored sky, showing a solemn expression.
The reason why he is so sure of Jenova's recovery is because of the mission reminder from the Dimension Star. The Dimension Star gave him a mission time limit of seventy-two hours. In other words, it is very likely that Jenova will be able to recover within seventy-two hours. He reappeared within hours, and his goal was to obtain the opponent's cells from Jenova's body. This was the real mission of the Dimension Star.
Moreover, after hearing Tifa's explanation, Jenova polluted the planet's fountain of life, and hundreds of millions of humans died from the horrific disease Star Scar Syndrome. So, having accumulated such a huge power, Jenova Resurrection is just a matter of course.
The combination of the two factors was the basis for his guess that Jenova would be reborn again.
He once thought that he wanted to obtain Jenova cells from Cloud, so he disguised himself as the ancient species Settra, used this method to approach Tifa, and inquired about Cloud's whereabouts. However, he did not expect that Cloud would die. , and also analyzed such important information from it.
As for his ability to communicate with the planet, it is actually just a way of using mental power. With his molecular-level manipulation ability, he directly controls the grass seeds in the soil to spawn. At the same time, he uses his mental power to break the clouds in the sky, creating energy and The illusion of planetary communication was precisely because of this that the clever Tifa was deceived. However, she did not expect that Yuffie, a woman, had such a keen intuition and could see through her lies at a glance, but there was no evidence.
But these are trivial matters. Whether Zhang Heng is really an ancient species is no longer important. He has been forcibly tied into a chariot by the dimensional star. If he wants to complete the mission, he must fight against Jenova, who can destroy the world. It was something he had avoided, but he really didn't expect that the Dimensional Star would trick him again.
Zhang Heng shook his head, turned and left the block, leading several clone warriors including Zhi Shang towards the ruins of the Seventh Demonic Furnace. Before obtaining Jenova, he still needed to complete the optional task and obtain the Demonic Furnace. Akira furnace technical information.
Mako is an unknown new type of substance that can not only be used as energy for consumption, but also can be used to strengthen the human body. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. Zhang Heng will definitely not want to miss this technology of infinite value.
