After roughly understanding Siegfried's problems, Gwen frowned—

Although Siegfried only lost an arm, the increasingly active Hyper-Mutation Factor in his body had a far greater impact on him than just the loss of an arm. It directly disrupted a certain balance between his body and the Hyper-Mutation Factor.

Several years after losing his arm, and without the powerful Honkai source that was always with him, the Heavenly Fire Judgment, Siegfried's body managed to find a balance with the Hyper-Mutation Factor within him once again.

Now, to treat the severed arm, a new balance needs to be found. If there is any mistake, Siegfried may fall into a state of collapse, or even face mortal danger.

Fortunately, Gwen has several solutions at his disposal.

The Five Elements Seal, the suppression of the Cosmo, or perhaps the Authority of Restraint...

"Hiss..."

Soon, Siegfried, who felt incredibly comfortable all over, felt a sharp, burning heat mixed with an unbearable tingling and itching sensation at the site of his severed arm, and subconsciously gasped.

However, noticing Welt Yang's surprised gaze, Siegfried quickly gritted his teeth and endured it.

In reality, Welt Yang was not surprised by Siegfried's voice, but by the dazzling golden light emanating from his body—

This is quite different from what he remembered and what the records showed of the Black Abyss White Flower's operation...

However, regardless of what Welt Young and the two doctors watching on the monitors thought, Gwen's actions did not falter in the slightest—

Once the Gene Lock reaches the intermediate level of the fourth stage, it gains the ability to actively adjust its own genes.

Although adjusting one's own genes and adjusting someone else's genes are two different things, Gwen, with this ability and his strong mental power, can suppress the Hyper-Mutation Factor in Siegfried's body at the genetic level to a certain extent, preventing it from interfering when he is restoring Siegfried's arm.

In the dazzling golden light, Siegfried's severed arm rapidly swelled up, and a brand new arm grew out from it, becoming the same size as the arm that Gwen had been holding within a few breaths.

After a moment, confirming that there were no structural problems with the arm, Gwen a slight sigh of relief and began to sort out the Hyper-Mutation Factor and Honkai Energy in Siegfried's body.

"Tsk..."

As Honkai Energy surged in, Siegfried felt a sudden, needle-like stinging pain in his arm, which was still somewhat unreal, causing him to involuntarily let out a groan.

However, the pain quickly turned into a strange sense of comfort, and did not put too much pressure on Siegfried.

"Okay, move around a bit. Is there anything that's bothering you?"

Soon after, his restrained arm was released, and Gwen's voice reached his ears. Siegfried instinctively obeyed Gwen's words and moved his long-unused left arm...

I'm still finding it hard to get used to.

"Don't rush. After all, you've lost several years. Give yourself some time to adjust."

Welt Young patted Siegfried on the shoulder and laughed.

Walter Young was naturally happy from the bottom of his heart that Siegfried, an old man who could or had watched his transformation from a spirited young man to the decadent uncle he was now, recover his missing limbs.

"Ha...

"It won't be long, I'll be there soon."

Siegfried endured the discomfort and tried to adjust to the feeling of having both arms again. He wanted to say something to Gwen, but found that Gwen was no longer there.

Where are the others?

Siegfried asked Welt Young.

"Um?"

Welt Young looked around in confusion, only to find that Gwen had disappeared.

"Gwen left while you two were talking..."

"Wait a moment, it should come back—"

Dr. Einstein said—

"Judging from his expression just now, it seemed like he wanted to get something."

"Get something?"

Siegfried paused for a moment, then a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

"Could it be that the kid is going to bring Kiana and the others over?"

With this expectation, Siegfried moved his arms even more vigorously, and even Dr. Einstein's persuasion had no effect.

Soon after, Gwen reappeared before the two.

"This is..."

Siegfried was slightly disappointed not to see the two figures he had longed for, but his gaze was still drawn to what Gwen was holding—

It was a sword blade that was entirely golden in color, and Siegfried felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

"The Key of Domination, the Xuanyuan Sword".

Gwen casually offered an explanation and shoved the Divine Keys, which he had retrieved from the Schicksal vault, into Siegfried's hand.

"Now I'm going to say something, listen carefully—"

"Good."

Siegfried, without bothering to find the source of that familiar feeling, nodded solemnly.

"Imagine the feeling of using the Heavenly Fire Judgment before, imagine that the person standing in front of you now is that smiling blond guy, that... Otto you wish you could tear to pieces..."

Go all out... swing your sword!

Using a small trick of family coordination, Gwen successfully manipulated Siegfried's emotions and power with his mental energy.

"Drink--"

With a roar, Siegfried suddenly unleashed terrifying Welt Honkai Energy even Welt Young couldn't help but notice, transforming into endless flames on his golden sword that engulfed Gwen's figure.

"Call...

Call..."

With a single swing of his sword, Siegfried, feeling utterly drained, leaned on his sword, panting, and looked with some worry at the flames not far away—

Once he regained consciousness, he was somewhat worried that he might get killed by this brat.

Although he is very strong, my sword strike is no weakling either...

Amidst Siegfried's worried gaze, a crisp clapping sound rang out from the rapidly dissipating flames—

"Good, one-time success."

Chapter 703 Flame-Chaser Siegfried

"Incredible..."

Looking at Siegfried's medical report, even the usually aloof Einstein showed a look of astonishment—

"The hidden dangers brought about by the Hyper-Mutation Factor have almost all disappeared, and his already superhuman physical qualities have been improved by leaps and bounds."

"Chicken-hair bun, are you sure the machine isn't broken?"

After glancing at the report, Tesla her fiery red twin ponytails, couldn't help but jump and exclaim in surprise.

"Dr. Tesla, you should be asking yourself whether there's a problem with the machine."

Einstein succinctly stated.

"Huh?"

"This instrument doesn't seem to be something I made, does it?"

Tesla scratched his head, completely unable to recall ever having created such a device.

Mechs and cannons are clearly her favorite things.

"After the Second Honkai War, what we unearthed from a Previous Civilization ruin was the restoration you personally carried out."

Einstein reminded me.

"But I remember that the instrument's casing didn't look like this?"

Tesla suddenly realized what was happening and glared fiercely at Einstein—

"How am I supposed to recognize you now that you've changed the exterior?"

Just as the two doctors were about to start their usual argument, Siegfried finally got dressed and came out from next door.

What was the result?

"See for yourself—"

Welt Yang smoothly inserted himself between Einstein and Tesla, and took the report.

"To sum it up in one sentence, it's probably unprecedented, right?"

"Indeed..."

Siegfried nodded in agreement.

"I also feel like my body has returned to what it was more than ten years ago—"

No, it's just... I've recovered to that state, but my strength is far greater than when you easily knocked me down...

It's probably only slightly weaker than when he used the true power of the Heavenly Fire Judgment after that person's prompting..."

As he spoke, Siegfried didn't even look at the report, but instead stared intently at the man who had orchestrated all of this... his good son-in-law—

What exactly is wrong with me?

Although he had felt somewhat drained before, after being given a pack of energy bars before the checkup, Siegfried could now clearly feel his current strength.

"The Fusion Warrior Project is a plan initiated by Previous Civilization in response to the Honkai, based on a human modification technology."

A well-configured Flame-Chaser squad can even defeat Herrscher at a relatively low cost.

In your current state, you could easily be called Flame-Chaser.

"If they had this technology, why did the Previous Civilization still perish?"

Dr. Einstein asked in bewilderment.

Compared to Schicksal, which possesses data extracted from Fu Hua's head, Anti-Entropy doesn't have much data on Previous Civilization.

"Because almost all of them were killed by the Herrscher of Restraint appeared later—"

After the tragic incident involving the restraints, only thirteen Flame-Chaser remained, who could have formed an independent combat group. Among them were many researchers and even children unsuitable for direct combat.

"The Herrscher of Restraint?"

Could you elaborate?

Einstein frowned and pressed for an answer.

Herrscher capable of killing dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of powerful warriors like Siegfried is no ordinary Herrscher; we must prepare in advance.

"You guys experience it for yourselves—"

Gwen pondered for a moment, then chose to explain to them through his actions—

With a light wave of his right hand, a restrictive barrier instantly enveloped the entire room.

Aside from Gwen, the other four felt as if all their strength had been drained away. The two doctors, who were physically weaker, almost fell over, but were caught by Welt Yang, who had gotten used to it beforehand, so they didn't embarrass themselves.

As for Siegfried, he simply collapsed onto the table next to him.

"It is indeed a terrifying power—"

This directly limited the Honkai Energy within our bodies to an incredibly low level, even affecting biochemical energy as well.

Holding his slightly dizzy head, Einstein tried to analyze his current state.

Although they are not Herrscher or Flame-Chaser, both Doctors were modified by the Black Abyss White Flower, which is why they have survived from the 1940s and 50s to the present day, still lively and radiant.

"That's why that battle was called a tragedy of restraint, which almost shattered the last backbone of humanity."

Gwen sighed, released the Force Field, and then helped the others recover their condition.

"It is indeed a terrifying power."

Tesla shook his listless red hair, his eyes fixed on Gwen—

"But why do you have this power?"

"In short, I am the Herrscher of Restraint the current civilization, and also the Thousand-Man Herrscher of Rock, or the Herrscher of Stars."

As Gwen spoke, he raised his hand, releasing a power that felt incredibly familiar to the Anti-Entropy trio.

"This is... the power of Star of Eden?"
