Thank You, Herrscher of Ice, for Supporting the Kindling Plan... / Just Like That, My Whole Mu Continent Is Gone?

Hmm... okay, I admit I do have some good ideas, but unfortunately... it's still too rare to see cat-eared girls in Fused Warrior, and for some reason, currently, it's more common for male Fused Warrior to have cat-like characteristics, which is just so awkward...

"Congratulations, Seele."

Elysia smiled and said, "I knew you would succeed."

"Mmm, thank you, Sister Elysia."

Seele smiled at Elysia. Although she had been tricked by Elysia before, the two actually had a very good relationship, especially after playing games together, their relationship became even closer!

After all, they don't have any conflict of interest, and Elysia has a friendly personality that allows her to get along with anyone, so their relationship is genuine and not just a superficial friendship.

"Seele, remember to come to the lab for a physical exam tomorrow."

At this moment, Mobius also spoke up, laughing, "Although your situation seems normal at the moment, there are cases where new aftereffects appear 24 hours after becoming Fused Warrior. So for the next week, remember to come for a check-up every day. We must completely avoid any accidents."

"Okay, I understand!"

Seele nodded obediently, after all, Seele cared a lot about her own life!

"Doctor, Seele's eye color never change back?"

Ling Xi took the opportunity to ask Seele about her eyes. Although blue eyes looked good, and were even considered the color of wisdom, but...

I don't know why, but whenever Ling Xi sees Seele with blue eyes, she always subconsciously thinks that it is White Seele!

"Of course not."

Mobius smiled slightly, "The Honkai factor I fused with for Seele is also a rather special End-Law Honkai Beast, but unlike the Great Freedom Heaven fused with Elysia, this Honkai Beast's factor has the characteristics of concealment and calmness. Therefore, after fusing with Seele, it's equivalent to hiding some of Seele's manifestations, but..."

At this point, Mobius smiled at Seele and said, "Seele, let our Ling Xi see how you've changed."

"Okay, sure!"

Seele nodded obediently, then activated her own Stigmata power instantly...

Seele's hair turned red again, and her eyes changed from blue to red. As for Seele's Honkai Energy Adaptability...

It even broke through 2000HW!

"See, Seele's eyes and hair can change color. Also, Ling Xi, you know that Honkai Factor can affect the personality of the implantee to some extent, and our Seele..."

Mobius shrugged and chuckled, "The Honkai factor fused with Seele has a more pronounced effect on her personality. Specifically, in her normal state, the blue-eyed Seele appears calmer and gentler because her emotions are suppressed by the Honkai factor. However, the Crimson Seele, after activating her power, is more irritable. Although it's still Seele, and completely the same person, but..."

At this point, Mobius spread his hands and smiled helplessly, "If you don't look closely, you might really think they are two different people. This must be the aftereffect of Seele becoming Fused Warrior."

Ling Xi: "..." The red-clad, irritable Seele; the blue-clad, gentle Seele...

Holy crap, wait a minute, could this be...?

But wait, that's not right. According to the normal script, the Previous Era didn't exist, and Seele was killed by Kevin after becoming the Herrscher of Death. So, there wouldn't be the Fused Warrior we have now. Therefore...

If the current Seele is the true White Seele of the future, then what about the White Seele in the original story?

So, Ling Xi thinks this must be a coincidence, hmm... it must be a coincidence!

"Have you seen enough, you idiot?"

At this moment, Seele glared at Ling Xi with some displeasure and snorted, "If I've seen enough, I'll change back. To be honest, I don't like this state; it feels a bit irritating!"

Ling Xi. That familiar tone and familiar voice were just like when they first met Seele!

"Ahem, alright, Seele, change back now."

Ling Xi rubbed her forehead, still wanting to quickly change Seele back to normal. After all Seele, she actually preferred the obedient Seele, the one who would never lie down when asked to!

Then, Seele released her powers, and her hair and eyes returned to blue. Meanwhile...

"Um... that."

Seele looked at Ling Xi somewhat awkwardly and explained softly, "I just... cough cough, that was the Honkai factor's fault. I... I would never talk to Ling Xi like that, please believe me, Onii-chan!"

Ling Xi: "..." Something's not right with you?

Chapter 401: Thank you, Miss Herrscher of Ice, for your support of the Project Fireseed...

After Seele became Fused Warrior, Mobius had Klein take Seele to undergo more tests, especially combat power tests!

Although Mobius had no intention of including Seele in the combat force, the future was, after all, an era of Honkai, so it was necessary to prepare Seele for the worst. In a critical moment, it might prove to be surprisingly effective!

Therefore, Mobius must understand Seele's true strength to avoid misjudging her in the future!

As an expert in this field, Elysia naturally accompanied Seele, leaving only Ling Xi and Mobius in the laboratory...

"Doctor, how's your supply stockpiling going?"

Ling Xi casually asked this question. It was something she had thought of while having lunch with Elysia today. Considering the future shortage of human resources, Ling Xi still felt it was necessary to pay attention to this issue!

Perhaps the reason the Flame-Chasing Moths ate noodles during their team-building activity in the original story was because they didn't have enough supplies...

"Don't worry, I've been prepared for this for a long time."

Mobius nodded and smiled, "Ever since you told me all the information about the Herrscher, I have been secretly arranging this matter. Up to now, I have stockpiled enough food to feed 100 million people for ten years, and various supplies are also quite abundant. Considering what you said before, that there are less than 30,000 humans left, even if we are well prepared this time, the remaining number is estimated to be no more than a million. Therefore, these supplies are very plentiful!"

"Of course, I am also preparing the hibernation system and the home system. If humanity is still of a certain size, we can rely on the home circulation system to survive underground or in space. If that fails, then we will have to rely on the hibernation system."

In fact, as early as the moment Ling Xi told Mobius about the future, Mobius had already been making various preparations. Whether it was the Project Ark, the Project Fireseed, or the Underground City Project, she was working on almost every possible plan!

After all, even though Mobius had never seen the Herrscher of Finality that Ling Xi mentioned, he could tell what kind of being it was from Ling Xi's attitude and tone!

Although Mobius certainly wouldn't sit idly by and would undoubtedly wield his sword against the Herrscher of Finality, however...

Of course, we must have all the necessary backup plans. We may be reckless, but we are not without brains.

"How many people does the Doctor plan to put into hibernation?"

Ling Xi asked about the Hibernation Pod again, after all, this was her original dream, and... Ling Xi also knew that this was the most reliable plan, since the spaceship would lose contact in the future, while the underground city plan...

Please, after the destruction of the Previous Era, the Earth was filled with Honkai Energy, and there were almost no normal life forms. It was only thanks to the human Fourth Divine Key satellite, which continuously repaired the Earth's ecology in Earth's orbit, that the Earth was finally able to regain its vitality within tens of thousands of years!

You have to understand that even the raw materials for the mushroom bomb have a half-life of 50,000 years. Without the repair of the Fourth Divine Key, how could this Honkai Energy, which is comparable to nuclear radiation, disappear in just tens of thousands of years?

"The initial plan is for one thousand people."

Mobius calmly said, "Although a thousand people don't care about the continuation of human civilization, this is the Project Fireseed, a last resort, so there can't be too many slots. Resources are insufficient, and the power of the Ice Herrscher Core may not be enough either!"

"The Ice Herrscher Core?"

Ling Xi seemed puzzled and asked, "What is the relationship between the Hibernation Pod and the Ice Herrscher Core?"

"Oh, of course it's relevant."

Mobius also seemed somewhat surprised, then deliberately laughed and said, "By the way, Ling Xi, you don't think the Hibernation Pod I'm talking about is the traditional medical Hibernation Pod, do you?"

"Um... isn't that right?"

Ling Xi felt that things weren't so simple. Her initial thought was that with technological advancements, humanity could create Hibernation Pod, like those in The Three-Body Problem, but...

Judging from what my Doctor said, this Hibernation Pod doesn't seem to be as simple as it appears...

"Hehe, that's impossible."

Mobius chuckled, annoyed, "Traditional Hibernation Pod have too many limitations. Even with current methods and all available resources, a person can only be kept in hibernation for about a thousand years at most. Moreover, a large amount of resources and energy are needed to maintain the Hibernation Pod's operation during this time, and if the Hibernation Pod malfunctions, it will require repairs. But..."

"Project Fireseed, that's the final plan. Once it's implemented, it means that apart from the Hibernation Pod and Project Ark, there are no other humans left. So... do you think it's possible to professionally maintain the Hibernation Pod? So..."

Mobius smiled and said, "We need to use the power of the Ice Herrscher Core, because the Ice Herrscher Core has the power to stop everything, including... time!"

"Therefore, my plan is to use the Ice Herrscher Core as the core device of the hibernation system, activate the power to stop time to create a space of absolute stillness, and use self-repairing and multiplying nanobots on the outside, requiring only simple maintenance, in this way..."

"Theoretically speaking, as long as the shelter is not attacked, the dormancy can continue indefinitely. After all, the power of dormancy comes entirely from the Herrscher Core, and the power of the Herrscher Core is virtually limitless as long as its internal input and output power can be maintained!"

"Uh... I see!"

Only then did Ling Xi realize that... the Hibernation Pod of the Previous Era ultimately relied on the power of the Herrscher Core. Thankfully, she had chosen Mobius instead of researching the Hibernation Pod herself, because...

The path was wrong from the start. Without the Ice Herrscher Core, what's the point of researching the Hibernation Pod?

Alright, alright, let me thank Miss Herrscher of Ice first for her support of the Project Fireseed. Without Herrscher of Ice, the Project Fireseed would not exist at all. Even if it did, without external maintenance, it would probably only last for a few hundred years at most!

Three months have passed since the Eighth Herrscher was defeated by humanity. During these three months, more than a dozen Honkai events have occurred almost every day around the world, and the Fused Warrior have been constantly rushing around the globe to fight against the Honkai!

However, even so, ordinary people's resistance to Honkai is still too weak. With the constant occurrence of Honkai, Fused Warrior are sacrificing themselves every day, and...

Because of Mobius's intention, the Flame-Chasing Moths provide the least support to the Mu Continent, yet the Mu Continent experiences the most frequent Honkai in the entire world, therefore...

The situation on the Mu Continent is extremely difficult; humanity has become the most precious resource!

Thus, Einstein, the father of Armed Doll, successfully developed Armed Doll with self-awareness and put them into the fight against the Honkai, greatly relieving the pressure on the Mu Continent.

Just as humanity was gaining more and more confidence in defeating the Honkai, an unprecedented gravitational fluctuation event occurred on the Mu Continent, directly causing the eruption of a supervolcano and forming an 8.5 magnitude earthquake...

Chapter 402: Suddenly, where did my enormous Mu Continent go?!

The disaster that occurred on the Mu Continent naturally attracted worldwide attention, and the Flame-Chasing Moths naturally sent people to provide support, as well as material assistance!

Although Mobius knew the future of the Mu Continent, at least for now...

Alas, if I weren't powerless, I wouldn't have stood by and watched the destruction of the Mu Continent. But there was no other way; for humanity as a whole, this was the best option. After all, I had already taken over 90% of the Mu Continent's elites, and the rest...

Perhaps this is destiny.

On the other hand, after obtaining Ling Xi's consent, Mei and Mobius created the true Divine Key, which included the Seventh Divine Key, Skyfire Judgement!

Of course, the core one used is the one that Ling Xi obtained in Changkong City, not the one that belongs to the Seventh Herrscher!

Furthermore, the Skyfire Judgement was successfully handed over to Kevin. This was unavoidable, given the power of the Skyfire Judgement when activated. Unless one intended to launch a suicide attack, only Kevin in the entire world could use it without taking any damage!

As for Ling Xi... of course she can use it too. After all, the temperature released by the Skyfire Judgement is nothing to Ling Xi, who is the Herrscher of Flame. But Ling Xi can't attack Herrscher, so in reality, it's pretty much only Kevin can use it without getting hurt. For others, it's a one-time use... well, people are one-time use!

Ling Xi had no objections to this, even though the core had been given to her by the Kiana...

Ancestor Kevin, Kallen's father, father-in-law, and finally in the hands of the Kiana, it will eventually be returned to the Kiana's wife anyway. Moreover, without the Skyfire Judgement, the humans of the Previous Era would probably have had an even more difficult time!

A week later, the Ninth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Rock, descended upon the Mu Continent. Almost the instant the Flame-Chasing Moths detected the Honkai Energy reaction, the power released by the Herrscher of Rock upon her birth enveloped the entire Mu Continent. In Kiana, the Mu Continent vanished from the physical realm...

Meanwhile, in Einstein, the capital of the Mu Continent, upon sensing the presence of the Herrscher of Rock, she immediately activated her newly developed quantum device, submerging half the city in the Quantum Sea, thus saving the lives of millions. However...

The entire city's land has been contaminated by Honkai Energy, making it impossible for crops to grow. Furthermore, this was once the capital of the Mu Continent, and almost all of its resources came from surrounding cities, so...

Soon, chaos erupted. People scrambled for supplies and killed each other in an effort to survive. Einstein, however, was temporarily safe under the protection of Armed Doll and was searching for a way to survive...

On Earth, after the Herrscher of Rock destroyed the Mu Continent, Kevin, who had been waiting on the space carrier, committed suicide with the Heavenly Flame. He descended from the sky and released the maximum power of the Skyfire Judgement, completely burning everything within a radius of tens of kilometers. Humanity thus defeated the Herrscher of Rock!

The Herrscher of Rock, from her birth to her destruction, lasted less than five minutes, but the losses she caused to humanity were undoubtedly the greatest...

The Law of Wind and the Herrscher of Flamescion merely annihilate life in a region, while the Herrscher of Rock goes straight to the point, destroying the entire continent in a true physical sense!

The human population plummeted by a billion in an instant, and the global human population has decreased from tens of billions a year ago to less than seven billion now...

The only saving grace is that Mobius knew the plot in advance this time, so he basically preserved the technology and elite scholars of the Mu Continent, therefore...

Although humanity suffered significant population loss and countless resource depletion, in terms of overall strength, the losses were not too great, at least within an acceptable range!

Only...

After the Herrscher of Rock, humanity seems to have become even more desperate because of this enemy...

It is truly an existence capable of wiping out all of humanity. Faced with such an enemy, can humanity... really win?

"Wow, I never expected the Herrscher of Rock to be this powerful..."

At home, Sakura was preparing dinner, while Elysia was chatting with Ling Xi about the Herrscher. She now fully understood why Mobius had suddenly decided to move, although...

I discussed this matter with Ling Xi some time ago, but...

It wasn't until the arrival of the Herrscher of Rock that Elysia fully understood why Mobius had been so decisive this time, because... the Herrscher of Rock's power was truly outrageous.

"Don't worry, there shouldn't be any more Herrscher this outrageous in the future..."

Ling Xi didn't hide anything from Elysia and said these words directly, although they weren't entirely accurate, because...

There are no more Herrscher as outrageous as that, but there are Herrscher are even more outrageous from another perspective, especially... the Bond!

"Oh, then I'm relieved..."

Seeing this, Elysia patted her chest and laughed, "I don't want to suddenly lose everything, including our home, someday. I can't accept that."

"Heh, don't worry, as long as I'm here, our home will remain."
