The Dimensional Codex of Destruction Chapter 9

When the Herrscher of Thunder awakened, the entire Chang Kong City was filled with special Honkai Energy, affecting almost all signals. Even now that the Herrscher of Thunder had disappeared, ordinary appliances were still unable to communicate, but the chip in Bronya's mind could barely manage.

"Bronya has reached the vicinity of Senba Academy. The Herrscher of Thunder's reaction has disappeared."

"Disappeared? How is that possible?"

Cocolia quickly looked at the staff on the ship beside her.

"Lady Cocolia, following the two Herrscher of Thunder signals from earlier, both signals have now disappeared."

Cocolia looked at the readings on the instrument with some bewilderment. The Herrscher reaction had indeed completely vanished.

Volume 2: The Valkyrie Who Obtained a Stand

Chapter 1: The Destruction Qin Mo Understood

"Where is this place!"

After the blinding light ended, Kiana found herself in a place completely different from Senba Academy. It looked like... the seaside?

How did she end up here?

She subconsciously looked at the familiar and reliable figure beside her.

At this moment, Qin Mo no longer had those purple Honkai Energy patterns on his body. It would have been even better if he wasn't holding the unconscious Mei in his arms.

Qin Mo had already confirmed the current situation at the first opportunity.

The System, due to absorbing a large amount of Honkai Energy, unlocked a new module: the Dungeon Module.

And because of the excessive energy, even after activating the Dungeon Module, the System still had surplus energy. Therefore, the System used the excess energy to unlock the Multiplayer Dungeon Module, but it still resulted in an energy overload.

Finally, it sent the three of them into the dungeon together, finally consuming all the excess Honkai Energy.

And this so-called dungeon was actually another world.

The System's name was the Dimensional Codex. Qin Mo originally intended to create a game that skirted the boundaries of various games and anime, but now, it seemed to have become a true system capable of traversing dimensions.

The world and mission for this dungeon were also displayed in the mission system immediately.

After obtaining the dungeon mission, the daily main quests would also be temporarily suspended from refreshing.

[Main Quest 1: Join the Stardust Crusaders Reward: 50 Crystals]

[Main Quest 2: Defeat Stand Users under DIO Reward: 50 Crystals for each defeated enemy]

[Main Quest 3: Participate in the killing/Kill DIO Reward: 200 Player EXP / 1000 Player EXP 500 Crystals]

[Main Quest 4: Please enjoy this journey happily Reward: 0 Crystals]

This was a familiar world, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and it was specifically Jotaro's journey to defeat DIO.

"Don't worry, Kiana. I know the current situation, but let's wait until Mei wakes up to explain everything."

Holding Mei, Qin Mo stood up, surveyed the surroundings, and used Crazy Diamond to treat Mei.

Although she wasn't injured, she still woke up under the influence of this abundant energy.

"Qin Mo..."

Raiden Mei hadn't completely lost her previous memories, but for her, the memories from her Herrscher period felt like a fleeting dream.

However, seeing the bouquet of carnations in her hand, she realized it wasn't just a dream.

Countless people had died due to her touch, even Qin Mo...

Fortunately, Qin Mo was standing before her, unharmed, and not eroded by Honkai Energy all over his body like in that dream.

"Mei, can you stand up?"

Qin Mo carefully put Mei down, and Kiana rushed over to hug her.

"I'm fine. Where is this place?"

Mei looked around. It was clearly not her school, and there wasn't a sea near Chang Kong City.

"This is also something I need to explain to you."

Looking around, the System's drop location seemed decent, with no one around.

"Actually, this is a special ability I possess. This ability has infinite possibilities. This is also why I have no adaptability to Honkai Energy, yet I could survive the Great Honkai and wasn't killed by the Herrscher of Thunder's power."

"Hey! Qin Mo!"

Kiana quickly alerted him when she heard Qin Mo's words.

Qin Mo shook his head. "Kiana, this has already happened. Hiding it won't do us any good. Moreover, after experiencing this incident, we are already bound by fate, Kiana."

"This is also why I've chosen to tell you what I've been hiding. Because I want you to trust me, to trust me completely. Because no matter what happens, I will be by your side."

"Even if you become a Herrscher, as long as I'm by your side, I won't let you harm anyone else."

Hearing Qin Mo's words, Kiana felt a bit strange. He said "you all," but he was probably referring to Mei. Why "you all"?

"But Qin Mo... I don't want to hurt you either."

Mei fell into deep self-blame upon hearing Qin Mo's self-sacrificing words. She had wanted to escape initially, but Qin Mo's actions were like tearing open a wound, making it impossible to ignore.

However, sometimes, a torn wound is meant for better healing.

"It's okay, Mei, I won't die. As long as I don't die, you can always believe me."

"This power of immortality was also granted to me by that special ability. Speaking of which, I should thank you, Kiana."

Kiana blinked. "Thank me?"

"Yes, I asked you to help me draw cards, remember? That's my ability. Although it has infinite possibilities, these possibilities are completely random. It was thanks to your good luck that I managed to draw this power."

"Huh? That wasn't a game?"

"It's not an exaggeration to call it a game, because it truly manifests in the form of a game. And our current predicament is also thanks to it. In order to absorb the excess Honkai Energy from Mei, it gained a new ability, which is to traverse worlds. You've probably heard similar terms, right? In short, this is already a new world, and once we complete the tasks it assigns, we'll return to our original world."

Qin Mo's words were a bit too overwhelming, leaving Mei and Kiana unable to react for a moment.

"So, you're saying we're in another world now?"

Kiana took a while to process it.

Mei: "Then... does that mean there's no Honkai in this world anymore..."

"That's right."

"Then... if we just stay here and don't go back, won't we end up hurting more people..."

Qin Mo hadn't expected Mei to be so fixated on this.

"But, Mei, in that world, there are still people waiting for us, aren't there?"

"Think about Mr. Raiden Ryoma."

Upon hearing her father's name, Mei instinctively hugged herself. "Dad... But I'll end up hurting Dad too..."

"It's okay, Mei, I'll be by your side."

Kiana quickly hugged Mei.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Mo also hugged both of them.

"Listen, Mei, Kiana, don't fear Honkai, and don't fear the Herrschers. In our world, Honkai is just a simple power. What you need to do is not reject it, but master it, and transform it into a power to protect others."

"But..."

Qin Mo let go of them. "Although it's a bit late to say this now, let me explain what Honkai is."

"So-called Honkai is a special energy that accompanies civilization. It can be converted into any other form of energy, but because it is too powerful, those who lack sufficient adaptability will be eroded and die, or turn into monsters. Herrschers are born due to their extremely high adaptability."

"Honkai possesses immense negative energy, causing each Herrscher's birth to be accompanied by extremely strong negative emotions. Their cognition originates from the memories of their host bodies. Therefore, it can be said that each Herrscher's personality is equivalent to the other side of their host body, only with an intense desire for destruction due to the negative emotions of Honkai."

"But they are still human at their core... Even with strong negative emotions, they are still human. Rejecting them extremely will only exacerbate their negative emotions, so what should be done is to accept them."

"They are like a version of ourselves who has gone astray. What if they've become Herrschers? Just like people have good and bad ones, Herrschers are just more prone to becoming bad. But that doesn't mean they can't become good. Communicating with them, tolerating them, and guiding them onto the path of protection is a better approach."

Mei recalled what happened in her dream. The Herrscher of Thunder had indeed chosen to return herself in the end, and Raiden Mei woke up. Although her appearance had led to the deaths of those around her, it wasn't her intention.

"But my power... even if I don't want to hurt others, people will still get hurt because of it..."

Chapter 2: First Encounter with JOJO

"Don't worry, Mei, there's no Honkai in this world, and I will solve this problem you're worried about here."

Qin Mo had already thought of a good solution, but he couldn't implement it yet.

"What solution..."

Kiana also looked over curiously. Although Mei didn't understand what Qin Mo had said, Kiana understood it quite well and had many questions because of it.

For example, the incident of the Second Honkai Outbreak, and how Qin Mo's words differed from what her father, Siegfried, had said.

Although the "Grasshopper" was a bit slow and naive, she wasn't stupid. At least Mei had accepted Qin Mo's explanation, and she was also curious about the method Qin Mo mentioned.

"Since we're on the topic, let's set aside the matters of that world for now and talk about the mission."

"This world has a special power called a Stand. It is a manifestation of a person's spiritual power. People who possess Stands are called Stand Users. Each Stand has myriad strange abilities, such as stopping time, shooting flames, creating ice, and repairing anything. Not only damaged objects, but even people. As long as they don't die instantly, even if their heads are blown to pieces, they can be healed."

"And Stands can only be seen by Stand Users. So, in order to complete the mission, I will give each of you a gift, which is a Stand. And Mei, the Stand I will give you is the one that can repair anything. Although it cannot heal yourself, it can heal anyone who is injured because you couldn't control your power."

Kiana blinked. "That amazing? What about me, what about me?"

"Repairing everything... If there was such a power..."

Seeing their interest piqued, Qin Mo nodded. It seemed his guidance was correct.

"This power was also granted by my special ability, but I can't give it to you yet. We need to defeat a few enemies first."

Cannot give it yet ×

Not enough Crystals √

Twelve days had passed since the last draw, and the Crystals had just accumulated to sixty.

As long as the first mission to join the Stardust Crusaders was completed, fifty Crystals would be obtained, allowing a character card to be converted into a Stigmata.

And for the second Stigmata, all that was needed was to defeat two enemies.

"There's no rush with this matter. Now, remember the mission I'm about to tell you."

Qin Mo roughly explained the cause and effect of this mission, from a century-old grudge to the savior of villains, and the ambition of the Emperor of Darkness, DIO.

"We will encounter many Stand Users on our way, so be careful. I'll tell you about the abilities of those enemies once we join the Stardust Crusaders."

"I understand!"

Kiana nodded. It was clear that this special world excited her, and it came with special abilities. Although she hadn't obtained them yet, she was greatly looking forward to what Qin Mo had promised, like a child anticipating a field trip tomorrow.

"I understand too. Since Stand power can let me protect others, I want to protect everyone as well."

Mei also set an example. Although she still felt some guilt, seeing Kiana and Qin Mo constantly comforting her about her situation made the kind girl feel a little bad.

Even if she had to force herself, she managed to break free from these negative emotions. Moreover, according to Qin Mo, she shouldn't be so passive because she still had the mission to guide the nascent Herrscher consciousness.

Hmph, coward. You just need to take care of yourself.

As if hearing these words, Mei disappeared before she could even react.

This also confirmed for her that the Herrscher consciousness was still present, but it seemed... she wasn't as dangerous as she appeared?

"Alright, next I'll see how to find Jotaro and the others."

Qin Mo first sought help from his System. He had initially prepared to return empty-handed, but the System actually responded to him, which was...

Do you wish to use 10 Crystals to activate Main Quest 1's guidance?

"..."

Qin Mo thought for a moment. "Activate!"

After all, the Stardust Crusaders' operation was international. He had no idea where they were now, and it would be terrible if he missed them.

As his Crystals changed from fifty, a small map appeared on the System's screen. In Qin Mo's eyes, a beam of light, visible only to him, appeared, seemingly guiding him to the location marked on the map.

"Let's go, I've found the location."

The two nodded and followed Qin Mo toward the spot marked on the map.
