Madman Otto! Stealing Genes to Create a Vessel, Turning the Real Kiana into a Murderous Tool

The image freezes on Siegfried's grief-stricken face.

Then, it slowly darkened.

A new line of small white text quietly appeared in the center of the dark screen.

[The Kaslana Family Tragedy - Prologue]

[The chosen girl, codename: K423, was born at this moment.]

The Light Screen lit up again, and a chilling atmosphere instantly enveloped the entire God Realm Central.

Having witnessed the Finality scene of the Herrscher named "Elysia," everyone's emotions had not yet fully calmed down. That resolute determination, like a moth drawn to a flame, that sacrifice for the future of humanity, weighed heavily on the hearts of every observer.

At this moment, a new scene unfolds, but it is no longer a pink fairy; instead, it is a cold Laboratory filled with an inorganic texture.

A cold, impersonal title appeared on the Light Screen.

In the image, a handsome blond man with an inhuman air, dressed in a platinum bishop's robe, is silently gazing at a huge petri dish.

His name is Otto Apocalypse.

Inside the petri dish, countless spiral chains of Genes sequences slowly rotated, and two distinctly different colors—pure white symbolizing Kiana Kaslana and dark purple symbolizing the Second Herrscher Sirin —began to merge with difficulty under the guidance of some force.

"What is he doing?" Huo Yuhao frowned deeply.

His Divine Power could clearly perceive the terrifying energy contained in the two Genes sequences in the image: one was sacred Life Force, and the other was destructive Honkai Energy. Forcibly fusing these two diametrically opposed forces was simply madness!

The text on the Light Screen coldly revealed the truth.

[Otto Apocalypse, Archbishop of Schicksal. In order to realize his "Holy Mark Plan" of resurrecting his beloved Kallen Kaslana, he secretly stole the Genes of Siegfried Kaslana's daughter—the real Kiana —and fused them with the core and Genes of the sealed Second Herrscher, Sirin.]

[The goal is to create a "container" that possesses the Kaslana Family's powerful Honkai Energy resistance and can perfectly contain the core power of Herrscher.]

[This created life form is codenamed K423.]

"Container..." Tang Wulin muttered to himself, a flash of anger appearing in his golden eyes.

He thought of himself, of the essence of the Golden Dragon King. Wasn't he also a "vessel"? But that was to seal away the power of destruction, to protect the entire world. And this Otto, merely to resurrect someone who had long since passed away, wantonly toyed with life, creating a soul destined to bear suffering!

"How... selfish! How... evil!" Gu Yuena gritted her teeth. As the Lord of Soul Beasts, she detested nothing more than this kind of behavior that treated life as a tool. In her eyes, Otto was a hundred times more despicable than any Evil Soul Master in history.

The scene changes.

A man with equally white hair, but a wild and unruly face, suddenly kicked open the Laboratory door. He looked at the baby in the petri dish who looked exactly like his daughter, his eyes first filled with shock, then turning into a raging fire.

"Siegfried Kaslana." His identity was displayed on the Light Screen.

"This man... he's found out!" Bei Bei whispered, her fists clenching involuntarily.

What followed was a thrilling surprise attack.

Siegfried, wielding the massive Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment, transformed into a streak of crimson light, unleashing a destructive storm upon the Schicksal Headquarters. With one arm tightly cradling the experimental subject K423, whom he had just rescued from the petri dish, he wielded a blazing Giant Sword with the God of Slaughter, slaying all who stood in his way.

A real little Kiana, about four or five years old, clung tightly to her father's trouser leg, following in his footsteps in terror amidst the hail of bullets and the roar of explosions.

"What a father!" Niu Tian exclaimed sincerely.

This fierce courage, willing to defy the world for his children, reminded him of his brother, the Titan Giant Ape, who also fought a bloody battle against the Spirit Hall for Tang San.

However, tragedy struck at that very moment.

As they fled to a broken suspension bridge, a violent shockwave from an explosion struck. Siegfried jolted violently as he tried to protect K423 in his arms.

The small figure behind him, the real Kiana, could no longer hold onto her father's clothes.

Her small hand flared helplessly in the air, her eyes filled with terror and confusion, before she fell like a snowflake into the bottomless icy cliff.

"No--!"

Ning Rongrong screamed and covered her mouth tightly with both hands.

Tang Ya's eyes instantly reddened, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

The entire space was deathly silent.

Everyone watched the girl fall, saw Siegfried's face contorted with despair. He reached out, but grasped nothing, and could only let out a silent, mournful cry that echoed through the heavens and earth.

The K423 in his arms, the replica, was unharmed.

His real daughter, however, fell into the Abyss.

"How could this be... how could this happen..." Xiao Xiao's voice trembled.

Tang San's body stiffened slightly. He recalled his helplessness when Xiao Wu sacrificed herself, and the pain of watching his beloved being torn from his life. He could empathize with that feeling.

A hint of emotion flickered in Emperor Dai Hao's fierce eyes. Although he had a rift with his son Huo Yuhao, the bond of blood could not be severed. This scene deeply wounded the softest part of his heart.

The images on the Light Screen became increasingly cruel.

In the snow-covered valley, Otto appeared. Like a ghost, he found the white-haired girl who had fallen off a cliff, covered in blood, and had lost all her Remembrance.

Looking at the girl's face, which bore a resemblance to Kallen Kaslana, Otto revealed a strange yet satisfied smile.

[The real Kiana survived the crash, but lost all her Remembrance.]

[Otto found her, erased all traces of her as "Kiana Kaslana," and gave her a new name— Bianca Durandal.]

[Afterwards, she was personally trained by Otto under the name "Durandal," undergoing the most rigorous training to eventually become Schicksal's strongest S-rank Valkyrie, serving her greatest enemy.]

On the screen, a dashing white-haired woman appears. She holds a black lance, her eyes are resolute and cold, and her every move exudes an unparalleled aura of power.

She was Durandal.

That's the real Kiana.

"You bastard!!" Zhou Weiqing slammed his fist on the table, furious. "That scumbag Otto! He not only stole someone's daughter, but he also turned the real princess into his murder weapon! How can there be such a shameless person in this world!"

Rong Nianbing, the God of Emotion, clearly sensed that a raging fire of anger was burning in the hearts of almost everyone present. Otto's actions had crossed the line between good and evil and touched the darkest side of human nature.
