Chapter 530

If I "upgrade," will he also "upgrade" accordingly? Although there is no primary or secondary distinction between the two Herrscher Core, the benefits of my "upgrade" can be fed back to Shen Gonglin's core, while the drawbacks have no effect... That's really cheating.

However, since he is Shen Gonglin, he can complete all the trials himself. He just needs to accept the rewards properly. After all, they are family, and there is no need to be so particular.

"Huh? How can I help you?"

Shen Gonglin was completely confused. He didn't understand what she was supposed to do at all. Bronya wanted his help, but what was the help for?

"Einstein gave you some extra lessons, right? Then you should also know the other name for wormholes, the perception space, and repairing the stargate core. This isn't a difficult task for the current Herrscher of Reason Core. In short, come with Bronya."

After briefly explaining the principle, Bronya took Shen Gonglin's hand, saying there was no point in saying more and they should just get started.

"... Einstein Space Bridge, sensor confirmed. Gravity anomaly detected, initiating exotic substance injection. Three...two...one. Stargate core components repair complete, ready to activate."

Under the influence of the Herrscher of Reason's Authority, which transcends human comprehension, the Stargate, which had been destroyed 50,000 years ago, began to be repaired. In the face of the two Herrscher of Truth, such a matter was insignificant.

Chapter 442 Return to Earth

Wow, it actually succeeded! Is this what the Star Gate looks like after it's been repaired? The Herrscher of Truth's abilities are truly extraordinary. Looking at the star ring above his head, Shen Gonglin felt a sense of unease. Because he was forcibly upgraded by Bronya, even though his power was exactly the same as Bronya's, it didn't mean that Shen Gonglin could quickly master it. That's why he was surprised by everything he had caused.

It feels like I suddenly succeeded without even knowing why.

"So, the power of the Herrscher of Truth... is indeed quite formidable, isn't it? How does it compare to the Herrscher of Flamescion and the Herrscher of Thunder?"

Bronya, standing nearby, was quite pleased with Shen Gonglin's reaction. He always dissed her, calling her the "Invincible Herrscher," and today he finally let Shen Gonglin experience her power. Bronya was ready to be praised by Shen Gonglin.

Unfortunately, before Shen Gonglin could even open her mouth to praise her, the other girls ran over, and Bronya missed her chance. In front of Kiana and Mei, Bronya was too embarrassed to let Shen Gonglin praise her like that.

"Well done, Bronya."

Kiana was also very impressed with Bronya's abilities. To be able to do such a thing, it seemed that she had indeed made great progress. Looking at the stargate above her head that was working again, Kiana was very excited. Now she should be able to return to Earth.

"Wow, this is outrageous... This is practically magic, Shen Gonglin! Explain to me the principle behind how you guys can do this?"

Little Herrscher of Consciousness was also dumbfounded. When did this girl, who couldn't beat anyone, become so strong? This was simply unbelievable to her. How did Bronya do it? Moreover, Shen Gonglin now had the same ability. Compared to Bronya, Little Herrscher of Consciousness was more familiar with Shen Gonglin. Tell her quickly about the origin of their abilities.

"Ah... well... just think of it as Bronya's amazing ability. It'll probably make repairing figurines much easier in the future."

This stumped Shen Gonglin. She didn't know the Herrscher of Truth's abilities. Anyway, she had just followed Bronya's guidance to complete this operation. Compared to the Herrscher's abilities before, Bronya's current abilities were obviously much stronger. Back then, constructing a Moonlight Throne had made Bronya collapse and fall into a coma, but now... she could probably deploy many, many more with ease.

"Sister Bronya, you really didn't push yourself this time."

Seele's first concern was Bronya's current state. The girl was extremely worried that her older sister was forcing herself again, since this wasn't the first or second time she had done so. However, seeing that Bronya looked normal, Seele breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that her Sister Bronya was alright. It seemed that this matter hadn't really put much pressure on her.

"Yes, Bronya keeps her word... Class President, is there a problem?"

After comforting Seele, Bronya also felt much stronger, as if she had finally caught up with everyone. Looking around, the girl suddenly noticed Fu Hua looking up at the stargate. Was something wrong?

"Ah, it's nothing... I'm just a little emotional, this is actually the first time I've seen it working properly."

Fu Hua was indeed somewhat moved. He had never seen this thing function properly 50,000 years ago, but he never expected to see it today. It was truly awe-inspiring.

Like her, Mei, who also knew about that period of history, also thought of something. Seeing Fu Hua's emotional expression, she remembered what she knew.

"So, this is what was built under the supervision of Mobius and Hen..."

Seeing these remnants from 50,000 years ago now running again, Mei was filled with emotion. The people of that time accomplished such a great feat, and now Mei felt a profound sense of history. These things were all the result of the hard work and dedication of the Previous Era's sages.

"Yes."

Fu Hua sighed softly. The old friends had gradually faded away like fallen leaves in the wind, and those who remained in the present had long since changed beyond recognition. However... since she had decided to live in the new era, she could not stay in the past forever.

"Alright, Mei and Class President, let's not talk about things only you two know. Our mission now is to return to Earth... But, what about the people of New Atlanta? This remnant of the Finality is unlikely to be restored, but..."

Kiana interjected, "Now they can return to Earth, but what about the people of New Atlanta?"

Ah... No one else spoke, but everyone's eyes were on Seele. This girl was most familiar with the children of New Atlanta, and at this moment Seele's expression was particularly hesitant. She was indeed a Xiao Kong worried about Xiaokong and the others, but... taking them with her would be the most dangerous situation.

"It's alright. At a time like this, we should definitely trust Klein, right? Besides, given the current situation on Earth, it would be safer for Xiao Kong and the others to stay on the moon. Although Klein is a robot created by World Serpent, he's incredibly capable at everything he does."

Having made her decision, Seele made the most accurate assessment of the situation at present. The next battlefield will probably shift to Earth, and it is most appropriate for Xiao Kong others to stay on the moon until they have resolved everything.

Klein... So that's how it is. She did find him after all.

In the future, the last kind of infinity I created for you, farewell, my understander...

Upon hearing the familiar name, Mei suddenly realized that if it was Klein there, it would indeed be alright.

"... Indeed, Shen Gonglin and I learned about Klein's character in World Serpent, so you can trust her."

Mei assured Klein there would be absolutely no problems entrusting the children on the moon to her, and now that her worries were gone, the next step should be...

Everyone looked up at the starry sky. At the end of everyone's gaze, the Earth, surrounded by the strange power of the star ring, was slowly rotating. Next, they would return to Earth to fight.

From Earth to the Moon, and then from the Moon back to Earth, it has truly been a "long" journey, and now, Earth should be the final battlefield.

Chapter 443 The Fine Traditions of the World Serpent

"In that case... everyone, are you ready to take back your future from Kevin and the Finality?"

Bronya extended her hand. There was no need for pre-battle mobilization. Everyone standing here knew what to do next: change battlefields and then face the final challenge. That was all they had to do now.

Bronya really does look like a battlefield commander. Shen Gonglin was the first to reach out and cover Bronya's hand. Needless to say, that was a matter of course. Then Kiana, Mei, Seele, the Class President, and finally, under everyone's gaze, even the still proud Little Herrscher of Consciousness could only cover her hand.

"Certainly!"

The stars shone brightly, and under the influence of this star gate, everyone instantly disappeared from the moon. As they watched the starlight, someone who still exists on the moon understood something.

"... So that's how it is. Hatching, that's your real purpose?"

Prometheus looked at the Feathered Rabbit beside her. At first, she really thought that she was doing this for the Stigmata Plan, but judging from the current results, her purpose was obvious. This was to help Bronya hatch, to hatch the Herrscher of Truth could fight against the Stigmata Plan Project.

"You're starting to understand me, aren't you?"

Yu Tu said with a smile, "Since I've already been defeated, I can't influence any further actions. I'll just stay here and wait quietly. This Prometheus... although he also has a three-five personality, I still feel that Bronya is cuter."

As expected of Alexandra's child.

"The fact that you didn't force Bronya to see her last memories already shows that you and the calamity-ridden, crystallized being from the past are not the same existence. Her past experiences, pain, jealousy... are like another person's emotions to you, and it's impossible for you to fully empathize with them."

Analyzing Yutu's various actions, Prometheus felt somewhat puzzled. He was still learning, studying the various emotions of humans... But was Yutu even human? Why couldn't he understand her behavior patterns?

"Even... your disappointment with the Herrscher of Reason was just a facade. But even with that lack of motivation, you still fought with all your might."

"Don't say that, it makes me sound like a bad person."

Yu Tu shook her finger. This was what the real Saniyat should do. Since she had inherited the name Misterin Saniyat, of course she should help her former self fulfill her wishes.

"Are you really not going to tell her that story? In any case, she is a party involved and therefore has the right to know the truth."

Prometheus asked this question. The Feathered Rabbit had not told Bronya about that history, and Bronya was still unaware of her and her mother's experiences. According to human thinking, Prometheus believed that the Feathered Rabbit should tell Bronya about it.

"As for the desire to share, haven't I already shared it with Shen Gonglin? So, when everything becomes history and all the conflicts are over... if I have the chance, I will. But I absolutely cannot do that before she challenges me. Your Dr. Mei is right, the essence of humanity is to give up one's life for something that is not originally mine."

Yuto blinked. Of course, she also wanted to share, to let Bronya know about her past with her mother, but she had to restrain herself from sharing now. Telling Shen Gonglin would already be against the rules.

"If the reason she challenges me changes from the Herrscher Authority that were originally unrelated to her to a personal relationship that seems more justifiable... then she will be unable to come up with a winning strategy and will only be able to defeat me by relying on the power of her allies. In that case, she will be unable to become the Herrscher of Truth."

Yu Tu said that if she knew that she was her "aunt", how could she continue to fight with all her might? Therefore, in conclusion, her actions were completely correct.

"... So, you're still as arrogant as ever."

Prometheus made this exclamation, while the Feathered Rabbit was surprised by her reaction.

"Hmm? Isn't this the kind of view that only humans would have? The programs that make you up are getting better and better."

Yu Tu said excitedly, but for some reason, the joy in her tone made people quite worried. Prometheus even took a half step back. This feeling... Has Elysia's behavior already spread from person to person?

"Speaking of which... you actually wanted to ensure that she would be the winner from the very beginning?"

"What? Is this strange... After all, I need to give my past self a real explanation. The curse she left behind has finally turned into a gift, isn't that wonderful?"

Although her former self has disappeared, Yuto can still try her best to "empathize" with what she left behind. If she knew, she would be very happy now.

"... I do understand why you were able to get along with Kevin in the past."

Prometheus sighed, and Yu Tu echoed his sentiments, or rather, echoed what he had read in a book, saying that this was more in line with his current mood.

Venice has changed beyond recognition, and the best Greek islands are sinking faster than ever. But it is precisely because we possess, rather than merely preserve, that we are worth cherishing.

If Shen Gonglin heard this, she would probably go crazy again.

For no apparent reason, Prometheus thought of Shen Gonglin's possible reaction. Even though Shen Gonglin knew about the connection between Yuto and Bronya, he probably wouldn't tell Bronya, since... it was simply because he was too lazy to say it.

"The difference between owning and keeping... wait, so you..."

As Prometheus pondered the meaning behind the rabbit's words, he suddenly realized that the rabbit's frank interest in hatching seemed to have another meaning.

"Yes, in any case, the Stigmata Plan is no longer my concern. Whether it's for the Herrscher fighting for humanity, for Kevin himself, or even for that Gray Serpent, we're better off being mere witnesses, aren't we?"

Having acknowledged Prometheus's judgment, Yu Tu said thoughtfully, "After all... this is the fine tradition of the World Serpent."

Chapter 444 Dream

If measured by the proportions to planets, the Moon is undoubtedly one of the largest satellites in the solar system. For example, one scientific view holds that Earth and the Moon are twin sisters, sharing the title of the third planet in the solar system for 4.5 billion years. And right now, 380,000 kilometers away from the Moon...

Dark purple runes shrouded the Earth, making this once aquamarine planet appear dull and indistinct, a biosphere that, billions of years ago, relied on retinaldehyde rather than chlorophyll.

Mountains, oceans, rivers, cities... everything is shrouded in darkness and silence, an ordinary infant sleeps soundly in its mother's arms. The earth remains silent, remains gentle. It embraces all that it can hold, even as the world changes and things are no longer the same.

In this transformed Earth, a vast dream is captivating its inhabitants.

"Liliya! Ahhhhhh!"

A sharp scream echoed through the room as the little girl in pink shouted her sister's name. The bright, warm room was filled with warmth as the girl screamed and spun around. Something terrible had happened!

"Rosaliya, what's wrong?"

Unlike the pink girl's sharp and lively personality, the blue girl who peeked in from outside the door after hearing the sound seemed much quieter. However, the cream on the tip of her nose proved that she had been secretly doing something. What's wrong with this silly Rosaliya now? Liliya is concentrating on secretly eating cake.

"Oh no, oh no, this is terrible!"

Rosaliya spoke urgently to Liliya, but the blue-haired girl only responded with a soft "oh." After all, Rosaliya was always in big trouble, and she was used to it.

"Liliya, didn't you hear me? This is terrible!"

Dissatisfied with her sister's calm reaction, Rosaliya continued to emphasize that something was terribly wrong. However, Liliya was all too familiar with this behavior; her so-called "terrible situation"...

"The last time you said something terrible was happening, it was when you got your hand stuck in a cookie tin and couldn't get it out; the time before that, it was when you got bubble gum stuck in your hair; and the time before that..."

Liliya counted on her fingers the serious situations Rosaliya described. These were all things Rosaliya considered to be serious. Couldn't this girl just be quiet for a moment?

"In short, if you don't want our dinner to turn from cream cake into charcoal cake, you'd better not let things get out of hand."

In the end, Liliya shrugged, wondering what terrible situation Rosaliya had encountered this time. All Liliya wanted to do was enjoy a nice cake.

"This time is different, Liliya, we've been attacked!"

This isn't some terrible situation like before. This is even more unacceptable than having bubblegum stuck in your hair. Liliya has no idea what their current predicament is like. What an idiot.

"What attack? By whom, and where?"

Liliya calmly asked about these three elements, but the question truly stumped Rosaliya. Huh? Why is she suddenly confused? She clearly remembers it being a very dangerous situation, but now...

Rosaliya looked around. Before her was a sunlit bedroom, and the aroma of desserts wafted from the kitchen. It was only then that Rosaliya seemed to realize where she was. A look of confusion crept into the girl's eyes. Something wasn't right. She had a feeling that things weren't supposed to be this way.

"What happened...? I clearly remember that we sneaked out just now and were surrounded by so many strange enemies. They were so tall and so big, and they could release crackling and buzzing... basically, they were super powerful attacks!"

The pink-haired girl stood on tiptoe, trying to raise her arm to describe the terror of the enemy to her sister. She clearly remembered that they should be fighting that kind of monster, but what was going on now?

"... Huh? Wait a minute, are you talking about... Honkai Beast?"

After listening to Rosaliya's description, Liliya felt like she had grasped the key point. Rosaliya's description sounded very familiar to Liliya. The girl shrugged and sighed, "That idiot."

"That's right! That's it! Since Liliya knows it too, it means this isn't a dream, right?"

Rosaliya nodded her little head frantically. "They must be fighting Honkai Beast."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course it's not a dream. Isn't that part of the movie we're filming? Have you forgotten?"

He explained to Rosaliya, quite speechless, "This girl must have taken the plot of the movie seriously. I've always felt that she's not very smart, and now I can confirm it; she really is not very smart."

"... Hmm? Hmm... Oh! That's right, the twentieth movie starring Vodka Girls! The greatest film of this century, it tells the story of two genius and beautiful girls who volunteer to be transformed into super soldiers in order to defeat the monster that destroys the world, and ultimately save the world."

Suddenly realizing what had happened, Rosaliya finally remembered everything. Oh, so that's how it was; she had almost forgotten.

"Yes, and the name of those monsters is Honkai Beast. You idiot Rosaliya, can't you even distinguish between the script and reality?"

Liliya muttered to herself, speechless. Seeing Rosaliya scratching her head in a daze was truly exasperating.

"Hehehe, I see... Then there's nothing to worry about, Liliya, let's go out and play!"

The matter was easily resolved, and the girl in pink excitedly invited her younger sister, who was sure she would agree.
