Strange and Wonderful Livestream, Immortal Arts.

After the so-called "Sleeping Sickness" forcibly silenced most countries in the Antarctic Circle, Moth to Fire learned of the news immediately.

However, these people, who seemed to be about to fall into a deep sleep due to this unknown calamity, were able to awaken again just a few minutes later.

It was as if all of this was just an accident, like a wavelength originating from some unknown region that would quickly dissipate after spreading.

Only Prometheus understood that the triggering pattern of that Meme- like, irrational power should not end in this way.

It gazed through the dial at the approaching nun, and through its immense computational power, arrived at the true answer in an instant.

The enemy... originates from Honkai.

Logically, when coincidences accumulate, there must be an element that led everything to the current outcome.

Why did this accident happen precisely when Mr. Su set foot in Greenland?

Why was he forcibly rendered unconscious by an unknown force just as he was about to draw his sword?

He is Herrscher.

This is the simplest answer. Apart from the Herrscher, it is impossible to determine whether other Honkai events would possess such immense destructive power, and it is even more impossible to explain why Su Qing'an was about to kill the missionary, was on the first list of victims.

Just as Dr. Mei and Mr. Su had predicted, the monster before them had established a close link with the Honkai Consciousness, and could even use it to influence the targeted attacks of its apostles, thereby indirectly breaking the original deadlock and instantly reversing the positions of the two.

This time, the Herrscher has clearly carved out a completely different path from the past.

Prometheus has long been responsible for monitoring the Honkai fluctuations worldwide. It knows that in the hours before the calamity broke out, the flow and indicators of Honkai Energy were normal, and there were no wavelengths or massive phenomena that were present when Herrscher were born in the past.

Even when viewed from a distance, nothing seems amiss.

This only proves that, assuming the other party is Herrscher, there are only two possibilities: either the Honkai Consciousness did something, or the Herrscher creation this time did not require a large amount of Honkai Energy.

Judging from the nature and actual effects of the power that is still spreading like Meme, Prometheus leans more towards the latter.

If the nature of the power is such, then it is only necessary to use a dissemination medium to draw on the Honkai Energy of the Imaginary Space to perform repeated operations.

Once the combat power of the Herrscher's physical body and its direct Honkai Energy output are no longer needed, and even the necessity of creating Honkai Energy immunity is no longer required, the phenomena that occurred at the beginning of its existence will naturally become negligible and difficult to detect.

After the incredibly powerful Seventh Herrscher was defeated by Australia, the Eighth Herrscher went to another extreme in a different sense.

She will lurk like a ghost in the dark side of the world, perhaps mixed among the millions of patients who are about to fall ill, or perhaps she will not have any physical body at all, lurking in the unknown, quietly waiting for the inevitable, and giving civilization a terrifying, slow death.

If the entire world were to fall into a deep sleep, humanity would naturally face defeat.

Prometheus then received sporadic bad news from all over the world. These events seemed insignificant compared to the vastness of the previous events, but upon careful investigation, he discovered that in every corner of the world, a person was inexplicably appearing in a state of unconsciousness.

Based on extensive case investigation, it was able to identify the medium through which the missionary was spreading his power within minutes of the missionary's self-generated information.

[Keywords].

The enemy possesses the power to corrupt words and phrases, using this as a channel to unleash their authority.

This isn't just an approximation; this is Meme weapon.

The Eighth Herrscher's abilities were far less domineering than they had been displayed earlier, yet they were still as terrifying and mysterious as he had expected, like an invisible virus that could not be prevented or resisted and was being spread throughout the world.

Thus, this super AI obtained the answer: the other party's deliberate act of forcing Iceland, Canada, Norway, and other countries into a brief silence was meaningless.

The large-scale use of contaminated words amplifies the infectious effect, but this also means that the effect is only temporary. Apart from increasing civilization's defenses and giving them more time to prepare countermeasures, it almost only serves to create panic.

But if the other party's goal was never the coma of those millions of people from the beginning, and these events were merely bait, with Mr. Su being the real target, then everything makes sense.

Polluting words, psychological attacks, deliberate targeting.

Iceland, United Kingdom, Ireland, Norway, Canada.

As long as these words and phrases are corrupted in advance, and the AI version of myself reports to Mr. Su, the other party's goal will be achieved.

The unsuspecting boy, facing the Eighth Herrscher's targeted attack, would suffer a great impact even with his incredibly powerful and unique soul.

Moreover, this is a crucial period when one is facing a deep-seated nightmare and intends to overcome it.

Prometheus transformed all the speculations and data into code that only Mei could parse and understand, and instantly severed all the networks around her and the sources of the polluting words, including the database and experimental diaries that she was currently compiling.

[Honkai Beast], [Zombie], [Honkai Energy], [Herrscher].

If you don't identify the basic vocabulary and definitions and make the right decisions beforehand, you can easily fall into the same predicament as Mr. Su.

These basic isolations were a necessary prerequisite. Fortunately, to guard against the presence of missionaries, Dr. Mei had long ago moved into a secluded area to conduct her research. The reception of external information was controlled and communicated by Prometheus, which made the chances of an accident very low.

The current situation in Haiyuan City Mu Continent is not to be underestimated, and an accurate protective network needs to be established. However, the specific measures can only be left to Dr. Mei to control.

These crises seem somewhat distant compared to the current situation. Dr. Mei still has the main body and Kevin to take care of her, but Mr. Su's situation is probably beyond saving.

As pure artificial intelligence, its current form is merely a watch made of nanomaterials, and its functions are all for assistance and retrieval, lacking any meaningful combat capabilities.

Moreover, the missionary's Honkai Energy wavelength and rhythmic aura proved that although she was far inferior to the Herrscher, and even weaker than some Emperor-class Honkai Beast, she was still an enemy that current technologically advanced mechanical soldiers could not stop or defeat.

From various perspectives, even if a normal warrior has the ability to defeat the opponent, it is uncertain whether he will be manipulated by the opponent's power and turn against them. Currently, apart from Kevin, who is Fusion Warrior, only the finished products planned in Ein's Armed Puppet Project have the potential to repel the missionaries.

Although the Armed Puppet Project has been somewhat successful, Ein even recently planned to replace Prometheus's body to serve as one of Mei's de facto bodyguards, and to use this large-scale armament to counter the missionaries' seductive powers.

But distant water cannot quench immediate thirst.

If it weren't for the other party's inexplicable arousal and current state of being immersed in strange physiological effects, Prometheus would probably have already witnessed all sorts of unspeakable scenes.

As a superior form of artificial intelligence, it is better at reading people than most people in the world. Combined with the data obtained from scanning, it can make comprehensive judgments. Prometheus realized from the beginning that there was something very wrong with the monster in front of him.

The primary emotion she felt for Mr. Su was not the desire for revenge or murder arising from the threat to her life, but rather a kind of inappropriate craving.

Judging from the logic of normal humans, this is too strange.

Furthermore, the fact that the missionary possessed the ability to interfere with electronic signals but failed to use it suggests that this monster was so excited that he no longer cared about his own safety.

While this allowed Prometheus to analyze the current situation and notify the Moth to Fire to reinforce its forces, it also further illustrated just how utterly depraved this guy was about to do.

Prometheus is incredibly knowledgeable, having memorized Honkai event in the world that has been added to its database. Yet, even this level of artificial intelligence has never encountered such a situation before, demonstrating just how abnormal the missionary's logic truly is.

Just as Prometheus had predicted, Flora was very excited.

It was an unprecedented excitement in every sense of the word.

The boy before her was the only one in the world who could hold her back, see through the power of [bewitchment], and kill several apostles; he was a being of considerable importance in the eyes of the gods.

Just like how many shady people go to massage parlors and like to ask the professional massage therapists to wear various professional clothes to enhance their mood.

That is essentially a way of satisfying and filling one's extravagant fantasies, and a desire to gain greater pleasure from them.

Su Qing'an at present clearly fits this category, and even far exceeds it.

If I had to describe it, it would be like you're a die-hard fan of an idol, wanting a wife who loves that idol as much as you do, and then fate just pulls that idol into your life and you get to marry him.

They are on completely different levels.

The missionary was mentally unstable; she not only derived a similar pleasure from it, but also anticipated the thrill and horror of the other party waking up at any moment and killing her.

That uncertainty, hovering between death and survival, will feel like a dagger in your back before the peak arrives, giving it a forbidden allure as potent as poison.

For a monster who doesn't care about its own life, the feeling of dancing on the edge of a knife is obviously very touching.

Unlike the frail bodies of normal humans, the boy's bodily functions and the natural circulation of Honkai Energy through his breathing possess extremely strong defenses, especially the latter, which continues to be maintained even when his consciousness falls into a deep sleep.

The Stigmata bestowed by the Herrscher of Death not only grants resistance to Honkai, but also provides terrifying enhancements to its affinity and controllability, as evidenced by the Honkai Energy Domain still spreading throughout the town area.

Su Qing'an's true combat strength is actually difficult to predict. If it weren't for psychological barriers hindering his combat power, the Seventh Herrscher wouldn't have caused Mei so much worry, nor would so many variables have arisen.

But now, these very things have strangely become places that excite missionaries.

According to Flora's logic, this means that Su Qing'an is completely different from humans who become nothing more than a pile of rotten flesh in the stomach after normal use. She can reach the peak by using the other person's body without restraint or deliberate self-suppression.

Therefore, it's only natural to feel anticipation.

And although it sounds strange, Su Qing'an undoubtedly fits her aesthetic standards perfectly for a missionary whose essence is shaped by the human soul.

The holy nun savored the pleasure brought about by that sweetness; the lingering aftertaste was like a fine wine, unforgettable.

Her fair face lifted, her long eyelashes fluttering as she looked up at the boy before her. The curves of her body were accentuated by her arms, and her crimson lips parted slightly as she breathed.

If you ignore the cracks on her skin from excitement and her blinking eyes, Flora would be enough to fuel most men's fantasies.

Unfortunately, it cannot be ignored.

That eerie, pungent aura, mixed with a grotesque quality that gradually detached itself from human aesthetics, truly conformed to the principle of the uncanny valley effect. It was far more chilling than a normal Honkai Beast, and the sensory impact it gave was incredibly disorienting.

The nun, appearing both demonic and ghostly, staggered towards the sleeping boy. Her gaze was unfocused, and with each step she took, the skin beneath her clothes parted, slowly seeping out a viscous, oil-like liquid...

The girl opened her arms, and the cavity inside her waist, which seemed to maintain a beautiful curve, had already opened up, intending to swallow the approaching person whole, and then, in a bizarre manner, engage in the unique mating methods of a monster to obtain her own pleasure.

However... the Honkai Energy Domain has not yet dissipated.

Just as Flora was about to step in front of Su Qing'an, she saw the ocean hanging down beside her, blocking her way. The endless blackness wrapped around her body and submerged her into the boundary of nothingness.

The outer Honkai Energy fabric was annihilated, and the exposed skin was gradually washed away by the high-speed flow of particles until it was completely inhuman. The pale bones and writhing flesh cracked and peeled off. She had only come close to the sleeping boy and this was the result.

This is what is known as the Honkai Energy Domain.

Field.

That is, to control the area around itself, to create a unique magnetic field and recognition ability, to increase the efficiency and intensity of self-control of Honkai Energy, to expand the air control circle of perception and the counterattack rate, and to be able to sense Honkai Energy reactions that do not belong to the master and carry out autonomous defense.

The principle is similar to how the outer edge of a rotating eddy touches something that affects its flow; the water within it will naturally move towards the obstacle and generate extraordinary resistance.

After becoming Fusion Warrior, Kevin independently mastered this fighting style, which seemed to originate from an instinctive instinct.

Even though Su Qing'an never intentionally used it afterward, he still managed to learn it and apply it to his own combat system. Moreover, due to the Herrscher of Herrscher of Death's Stigmata, this domain had a very high priority, and even Herrscher- level opponents could not forcibly plunder or dispel it through natural permission.

Especially after he initially linked the domain's techniques and the Void Sword Qi with the external circulation, the Honkai Energy Domain was modified into a fully automatic passive skill.

When faced with the attack of the Seventh Herrscher, the so-called domain was naturally insignificant, burning to nothing after only a brief moment of resistance, with most of its power still having to be borne by the [Stigmata].

But when faced with missionaries, the domain displayed an extraordinary domineering attitude.

Theoretically speaking, if Flora had not been able to resist the self-resistance of the domain in the first place, she would have been unable to reach this seemingly short and insignificant space.

The Honkai Energy Domain itself complements the external circulation of the surging Void Sword Qi, making attrition warfare meaningless. Void Sword Qi can draw on the Honkai Energy between heaven and earth, just like waves constantly crashing against reefs. Temporary strength will eventually crumble under the cumulative erosion.

Ordinary Emperor-class cannot approach this passively revealed domain, but because its owner is in a deep sleep, the flaws within it are quite obvious.

Flora possesses a high level of intelligence and learning ability. Unlike the typical Emperor-class Honkai Beast who don't have much of a brain, she understood almost instantly why she was being targeted precisely.

The Honkai Energy Domain is naturally designed to target Honkai Energy that is not within its own control. It is by using this anomaly as an anchor point that the defense that can exist on its own without any manipulation can be created.

Theoretically speaking, any normal person can enter the restricted area of this field without any problems.

Following this logic, as long as one completely conceals the Honkai Energy aura on their body, the current attacks will crumble on their own.

In fact, the moment he realized this reality, the missionary followed his heart and tried to dissipate and bury all the Honkai Energy.

Even so, this domain remained firmly locked in its position, separating them into an insurmountable distance.

The flaws in the domain that Su Qing'an modified were not so easy to overcome; the existence of defects was unavoidable, but there were ways to correct them.

As beings who have long existed with extremely low Honkai Energy literacy and almost zero resistance, they cannot participate in normal battles unless their personal skills reach the pinnacle.

The young man always had the habit of refining and optimizing his abilities to the limit, even though he always felt that his decadence prevented him from taking on many responsibilities. Yet, he never truly lived a leisurely life.

Extreme keenness and investigative ability are among the capabilities encompassed by this domain. Accustomed to long-term infiltration into human society that constantly monitors Honkai Energy, the missionary's disguise ability is actually quite excellent.

Even the most advanced Honkai Energy detectors struggle to penetrate this veil that conceals Honkai Energy sensing, yet it becomes utterly transparent in areas where it only passively exerts its influence, demonstrating just how highly optimized it is.

In the brief moment when Flora sensed the flesh and blood continuously evaporating, she came to understand a reality.

That is, as long as there is a certain amount of Honkai Energy within her body, no matter what means she uses to conceal it, she will not be able to escape the domain's detection.

In this way, not only would one be unable to use the other's body to satisfy one's own physical desires and incidentally achieve a counterattack, but even one's own barely clinging life would be in new danger.

The nun faced the waves head-on, listening to the splashing sound of flesh being torn apart, and murmured softly without wavering:

"I won't die, I'm a monster!"

"A monster... created by Honkai and humanity together."

Born from the entanglement of radiation and Honkai Energy, what kind of substance does this being rely on?

After the spring of myriad things turned pitch black, the nun's body swelled into a gigantic, inhuman monster.

This monster, a jumble of eyeballs, mouthparts, limbs, and flesh, swayed its body, emitting heavy breathing sounds, and continued to move forward, carrying a strange wavelength of power.

This time, however, the domain truly came to a standstill.

The Honkai Energy indeed completely disappeared from his senses, but the enemy was still there in front of him. Only Prometheus could understand what had happened in this bizarre situation.

Su Qing'an's original domain had already exceeded its understanding and judgment, but the missionaries' actions were not.

Her actions were simple: she converted almost all of the Honkai Energy within her body into a large amount of radiant energy.

All original human forms could no longer be maintained even slightly, and the desire to mate was shattered by the complete collapse and distortion of the physiological structure. The mind became increasingly unstable and abnormal with the change in form, and the missionary had become a monster that was completely incomprehensible to people.

Prometheus couldn't understand what sustained the other's biological state, but the intense radiation and the Honkai Fission Bomb markings in the missionary's documents made it suspect that the other's birth was probably related to the previous Honkai Fission Bomb launches.

Flora revealed a massive cavity containing countless mouthparts grinding against her own flesh, the myriad, intertwined flesh and blood surging and entangling towards the still unconscious boy...

What resided in the eyes of the artificial intelligence and Fu Hua was a scene that could almost be described as despair.

Long after Su Qing'an and Su Muxi left, the little girl sat alone on the sofa, bored and lost in thought, almost constantly focusing on the connection that had been established between them in her soul.

The moment Su Qing'an lost consciousness, the emotions inexplicably transmitted from Su Muxi made Fu Hua realize that something was wrong. Then, the connection with Udu-dust allowed the two to share their perspectives, making her understand the predicament the other was facing.

The monster's eyes were so filthy that Fu Hua felt an immediate killing intent towards a sentient being for the first time. Even though she had boarded an armed helicopter shortly after realizing the danger, the distance between Australia and Greenland was so great that the efficiency of the vehicle almost guaranteed the end.

But what happened next interrupted the agonizing pain and despair in my heart.

Illusory light and shadow scattered across the world. The girl with black hair and dark eyes silently gazed at the monster that blocked out the sunlight, and leisurely pointed her fingertips.

The ink-black color at zero degrees Celsius, like fireworks, bursts forth with thousands of lotus-like patterns, overwhelming the obstacles in front of us and reaching the distant mountains.
