Kiana, Your Potential Is Beyond Imagination / Bud of Wishes? An Impromptu Interstellar Trip!

"How could this be, I..."

As Kiana was speaking, she suddenly patted her chest.

"Puff..."

Gwen couldn't help but chuckle, and gently patted her back with a smile.

"Eat slowly. I've regained my senses and can bring you food anytime you want."

If you suddenly overeat and get an upset stomach, there's no one to take you to the doctor.

Gwen watched Kiana tilt her head back and gulp down her soda, then poked her puffed-up cheeks.

Chapter 866 Kiana, your potential is beyond your imagination.

"Ah?"

Kiana blinked in confusion, her eyes showing utter bewilderment, then pointed uncertainly to herself—

"Do you need me to help you stabilize things here?"

Although it seemed like she was just indulging in a feast, Kiana was also paying attention to the changes in her surroundings.

Compared to her efforts to maintain the still fragile balance, Gwen, now distracted here, still manages to keep this dangerous ocean in a stable dynamic equilibrium.

Kiana believed that she had held out until Gwen's return, and now it was time to pass the baton to him and let him end it all.

However, Kiana would be happy to help if she could.

"To be precise, I'm the one who helped you stabilize this place."

Gwen smiled and pinched the tip of the girl's nose—

"A long time ago, I thought that if I were strong enough, I would eat the Honkai like it was food."

Now, the Honkai has been defeated by us, leaving behind only a rich legacy.

As is well known, high-end ingredients often require only the simplest cooking methods.

So, let's just treat it like eating sashimi.

"Sashimi?"

Kiana thought about what she had seen and heard in the Far East and gave an example.

"More or less."

Gwen nodded.

"After the Cocoon of the End was destroyed, it was like a pile of equipment dropped everywhere—"

I remember you and Bronya playing games together, it was like defeating a boss and getting loot.

"Um...

You mean you'll give me a piece of equipment too?

Kiana seemed to understand, but not quite.

"Pretty much, but as I understand it, the gold coins that hatch from the cocoon can be roughly divided into three types—"

Firstly, the various powers it aggregates can be seen as equipment, which has basically all ended up on me.

Secondly, there is a massive amount of experience points, which is the almost inexhaustible energy in the ocean beneath our feet.

These 'experience points' are useful to me too, but rather than letting me drain them and only level up once or twice, I'd rather leave them to you. You can then train another powerful character.

Gwen tried his best to express his understanding and insights through metaphors.

"Let me absorb them?"

Kiana looked around at the boundless sea of energy, a conflicted expression appearing on her face.

"Even when I'm completely out of consciousness, I still won't be able to absorb all of this, right?"

"Oh...

Have some confidence in yourself. You are the Herrscher of the Void. Your predecessor, Sirin, was directly endowed with four Herrscher Gem containing powers by the Honkai Consciousness Cluster.

Your potential is beyond your imagination.

The reason you absorbed nutrients slowly before was largely because you needed to devote a lot of energy to maintaining balance.

Now I will help you greatly improve this efficiency.

Gwen rubbed Kiana's head and said.

"Hmm, what do you need me to do?"

Upon hearing this, Kiana's hesitation vanished, and she looked at Gwen with bright, alert eyes.

Although it feels good to be hugged and protected, Kiana also wants to do more, to protect more people like You Lan Dai Er, and to safeguard the wishes of more people.

"This brings us to the cocoon's third inheritance—"

Gwen smiled and pointed to the boundless sea beneath his feet—

"Although I did break the cocoon, what remained in the Solar System and on this branch of the Imaginary Tree was not completely destroyed. We can make use of it."

Whether it's the mechanism of converting the thermal energy consumed by civilization into Imaginary Internal Energy, and then into Honkai Energy, or its ability to influence the flow of time both internally and externally, thus concealing the Solar System, both are extremely valuable.

This is almost a natural galactic defense system, requiring no special power source from the civilization itself.

By leveraging this legacy, you become the new core, giving you the opportunity to bring all of this under control.

Hmm... It's like capturing an enemy warship and instantly upgrading from a slingshot to a cannon.

"So, Captain Kiana, are you ready?"

"Certainly!"

Kiana nodded vigorously, her smile bright and radiant.

"Then let's get ready and take it one step at a time."

Gwen patted her on the shoulder—

"You fill your stomach first, then I'll bring Mei and Anna over."

Although the Herrscher deployed on Earth do not possess the strongest powers in terms of Honkai, their sheer number can still play a significant role.

Shall we all come together?

Very good!"

Upon hearing her friends' names, Kiana immediately beamed with joy.

Although she could tolerate being alone, it would be much better if someone were to keep her company; after all, sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone...

"Well, Anna and Himeko can also help you catch up on the lessons you've missed, and Shiki and Fu Hua can help you improve your basic skills."

Gwen smiled and nodded.

"Forehead..."

Instantly, Kiana's smile froze, and she stared at Gwen with a crestfallen expression. Seeing that Gwen had no reaction, she could only channel her grief and anger into her appetite and continue to satisfy her hunger.

Soon, Mei, Anna, and the others, who were already preparing to deal with a sudden crisis, arrived at this Imaginary Space, causing the ocean below to become even more restless.

After they expressed their concern for Kiana, Gwen briefly explained his plan.

"You mean... Gwen, you won't be here with us to Honkai the legacy of the Honkai?"

After hearing Gwen's plan, Mei, without waiting for anyone else to agree, preemptively asked the question she had gleaned from Gwen's words.

"Um."

Meeting Mei's gaze, which inexplicably exerted immense pressure on him, Gwen slowly nodded, confirming her guess—

"Although this process can bring me some gains, not much, and it will greatly take away the gains you can get."

In contrast, I only need to focus on controlling the overall direction, leaving the rest to you. I will still gain something from this, and I can also devote more energy to digesting and absorbing those powers.

Don't forget, the greatest legacy of Honkai is those precious powers, and they're all with me now.

It would take a lot of energy to eat them all.

So...

I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you with things here.

"What, Mei doesn't want to help me with this?"

Gwen spoke, he took two steps forward and stood in front of Mei, their breaths almost audible to each other.

"Of course not."

Mei shook her head vigorously, a faint blush rising to her pretty face, and her tone carrying a hint of panic.

"I will definitely live up to your expectations."

"Yes, I trust Mei more than I trust myself."

As Gwen spoke, he had already taken her thin lips into his mouth, which made Himeko cheer and shout, causing Mei's ears to turn slightly red. However, she refused to let go of Gwen and retorted defiantly.

After calming Mei, Gwen addressed the other people's questions one by one and made several promises.

With everything prepared, we began our operation.

Chapter 867 The Sprout of Wishes? A Spontaneous Interstellar Trip!

Time passed silently, and by the time Gwen's thoughts were withdrawn from the intertwined power, everyone who had arrived had already been submerged in the boundless ocean, becoming part of the system that controlled this "ocean"—

Using the method provided by Xenadia as a reference, and taking the Herrscher girls who came here as anchors, Gwen wove this simple system that allowed them to absorb the uncontrolled Honkai Energy and Imaginary Internal Energy while stabilizing the legacy left by the Cocoon of the End, preventing it from collapsing on its own.

After all, this almost natural galactic defense system, even if it might not be able to defend Emanator experts at the Envoy level, is still extremely valuable. If it can be preserved, it would be better to keep it.

"Next, the only problem is probably..."

Feeling the Imaginary Space now covered by the system built by the Herrscher girls, Gwen stretched and muttered this somewhat regrettable fact to himself—

"Me."

Gwen's goal is to use the resources here to raise the Herrscher girls, so that the Solar System can have more powerful beings.

However, in this process, he became an obstacle—

Even though Gwen was trying his best to reduce his presence and influence in order to minimize the impact.

However, as the saying goes, "He who blinds himself will find a tiger crouching before him," his presence will not disappear just because he does not take any initiative to do anything.

Therefore, in order for this system to operate at its highest efficiency and digest the legacy left by the Cocoon of the End, Gwen needs to leave this place.

"Does this mean we won't even be able to enjoy ourselves after the war is over?"

Gwen muttered a low complaint, glancing at the group scattered throughout the sea, but he didn't actually show any emotional reaction to it.

If Earth is hard to return to, he can go somewhere else.

Although Belobog is not large, it is still full of its grand house. Playing to your heart's content in the icy alien world, and then doing things you love in the warm house, isn't that a kind of fun?

After taking one last look, Gwen stepped out of the Imaginary Space to check whether the changes here would have any other impact on the Eigenworld.

The boundless ocean, which occasionally surged with waves, did not experience any further turmoil due to Gwen's departure. Instead, thanks to the efforts of the Herrscher, it gradually calmed down, revealing a crystalline purple hue, exquisite and beautiful.

The next moment, that crystalline purple light had already fallen into Gwen's hand.

"Oh...

I thought you could hide for a long time...

His fingertips gently stirred the shimmering purple light, and Gwen, who had somehow returned, wore a playful smile.

When Gwen was building the system to maintain stability, he had vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite grasp the key point, so he simply pretended not to notice.

As soon as he left, the little thing popped up on its own, clearly impatient.

Only...

If there are still remnants of the cocoon, would I really be that stupid?

Looking at the trembling purple light in his palm, Gwen felt a little puzzled.

However, after a moment, a look of surprise appeared on Gwen's face—

This thing wasn't the remnant of the Honkai Consciousness cluster he thought it was, but a newly born, nascent consciousness...

No, it's not even a conscious thought; at most, it's a mimosa-level instinctive reaction. The previous hiding motion is more driven by instinctual stimulation.
