Chapter 405

Freya chose her own Saintess because when the Floating Island of Schicksal was dismantled, the mental amplifier in her room on the Floating Island of Schicksal had been transferred to her own Saintess.

At the same time, she also asked Tesla and Einstein to help her eliminate the hidden door that Otto had left inside.

With Freya's current mental strength, except for Kiana who occasionally loses connection due to distance, Kiana and Aurora can usually connect to their consciousness space.

Of course, based on Freya's previous speculation, she should be connected to Kiana, and Aurora should be connected to her, but she is the core of building the consciousness space.

In fact, during Freya's time in the parallel world, neither Kiana Aurora entered that consciousness space again.

Why choose this place?

Kevin watched as the new and old senior executives arrived one after another on the deck of the Saintess and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Hmm, where's Gray Serpent?"

Kevin frowned instinctively when he didn't see Gray Serpent among the group of high-ranking officials led by Siegfried.

SU, with a smile on her face, responded with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

"I just received a message that he's still at the banquet. He just sent a message saying he doesn't know where the other senior executives went. I'm trying to contact Siegfried but I can't reach him..."

At this point, SU looked at Siegfried, who was walking ahead while having a long phone conversation with his wife.

The reason Siegfried could not be reached was simply because the phone line was busy.

Freya also noticed the situation of Siegfried and his group of high-ranking officials, who clearly didn't care that they had come to watch the test of the Key of Reason, so she explained to Kevin.

"The reason I chose the Saintess is because a mental amplifier that I use specifically was installed on this Saintess."

Although the alliance is building a completely new satellite network, the satellite network that Otto set up has not been abandoned.

Based on the idea of making use of waste, this satellite network has been monitoring Honkai reactions around the world.

The new satellite network that Ryoma is in charge of can only fill in the gaps in the existing satellite network for the time being. After all, his current task is to transform the Floating Island of Schicksal into a space Space Fortress with a complete ecosystem and the ability to be self-sufficient, and to launch it into the planet's geostationary orbit.

"That mental amplifier system, connected to the Schicksal's satellite network, allows my mental coverage to encompass the entire planet."

"..."×N+1

Hearing Freya's calm reply, Kevin and the others felt a chill run down their spines. Meanwhile, the Twos, who had just arrived after hearing about the prototype test of the Key of Reason, coincidentally overheard Freya's words and couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

The twos from the parallel world observed everyone present and found that they were completely unaware of the seriousness of the situation. Even if Kevin sensed something, he only felt a chill and did not understand how terrifying a mental Herrscher of Finality, who could cast Mind Plague, connect everyone's consciousness to establish a consciousness network, and then pull everyone's consciousness into the dream, could be after possessing a mental amplifier whose mental power covered the entire globe.

So, people in this world are really too lucky.

Seemingly noticing the strange looks being cast at them by the Twos, Kevin, Tesla, and the others in this world became confused.

Although it was strange why these twos from parallel worlds were looking at them with a hint of pity, their attention was quickly drawn to Freya was testing three prototypes of the Key of Reason.

Freya received the three boxes containing the Key of Reason from Tesla, a very pleasant smile spreading across her face.

"As you know, the Stigmata abilities of these three Key of Reason prototypes are quite ordinary. They are 'Guidance' to increase accuracy, 'Energy Gathering' to enhance power, and 'Cage' to imprison targets and form a binding Honkai Energy. The performance of each prototype is roughly the same as the Relic series from the Previous Era."

Although the Stigmata built into the three prototype Key of Reason were all quite ordinary, even less capable of converting Honkai Energy into some kind of attack than the toys that were byproducts, the Stigmata built into the three prototype Key of Reason did indeed possess extremely strong performance.

"And the real use of these three Key of Reason prototypes is like this, Kevin... I didn't say that each person can only use one of these external Stigmata."

As she spoke, Freya discarded the three prototype Key of Reason. After mentally connecting the three Key of Reason, they floated around Freya. At the same time, the three prototype Key of Reason lined up in a row around Freya, and the faint light emanating from Key of Reason seemed to resonate, forming a very unique pattern...

—A purple spear flashing with lightning.

465. How about it? It's quite similar to a constellation, isn't it?

As the three prototype Key of Reason lined up diagonally upwards behind Freya, a pattern resembling a purple spear piercing the sky and crackling with lightning slowly appeared.

"In terms you can understand, this is unique to the external Stigmata Key of Reason — the Honkai Energy Resonance Array."

Freya laughed.

"I had no idea that three Key of Reason are needed to unleash their true power."

Even Kevin was surprised at this moment.

Freya smiled happily, as if she had successfully pulled off a prank.

"The surprise is saved for last, isn't it?"

Freya continued to resonate with the three Key of Reason through her spiritual power, and the three Key of Reason also opened a channel connecting to the Imaginary Space, from which a large amount of Honkai Energy was extracted.

"As you know, 'Guidance,' 'Enhancement,' and 'Cage' are only basic Stigmata. They cannot be compared with the Stigmata power of those who have awakened, or the Stigmata power guided by the Type-B Stigmata. In fact, the Stigmata built into these three Key of Reason cannot be considered a complete Stigmata at all."

Given the Alliance's current technological level, these three types of Stigmata are the three most complete basic Stigmata they can master. Other Stigmata are either incomplete or the technological level is still insufficient.

"When the three basic Stigmata are combined, the resulting new Stigmata is the truly complete form, which I name—[Thunder Prison Spear Seat]."

As she spoke, Freya grasped a lightning spear several meters long, wrapped in lightning, and the purple spear pattern wrapped in lightning behind Freya burst forth with an even more dazzling light.

"My naming method is based on constellations. In the future, whether it is Valkyrie or other warrior, they will be able to choose the most suitable fighting style by resonating with the Key of Reason their own spiritual power. In fact, the most suitable candidates to test the [Thunder Prison Spear Seat] are Ms. Raiden Mei and some Type-B Valkyrie with Lightning Stigmata Power. After all, they have rich experience in controlling the Lightning Stigmata Power."

Freya shrugged at this point and then continued talking to herself.

"I have already informed Miss Mei and some Type-B Valkyrie with Lightning Stigmata Power to come to the Saintess. They can be in charge of the follow-up testing of the [Thunder Prison Spear Seat]. Next, let me take care of that Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast that needs to be dealt with properly."

Freya then connected to the mental amplifier on the Saintess.

In an instant, her mental energy was amplified and projected into the Schicksal's satellite network, instantly covering the entire planet.

"Tsk, as expected, we couldn't find that bastard. That satellite network really did block him."

Even though Tesla and Einstein managed to remove the hidden door Otto had left in the satellite network, they still couldn't unlock the highest level of access Otto had set.

If the Schicksal's permission system continues to be used, Otto's authority will naturally be unmatched by anyone. Whether it's Freya or Tesla, they can only stare helplessly at Otto's highest authority, unable to modify the settings he has changed with the highest authority.

This is why the access control system used within the alliance was redesigned by Tesla and Einstein.

Using Schicksal's satellite network to search for Otto is clearly an impossible task.

However, it is not difficult to find a certain Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast.

Freya didn't even need to lock onto the Honkai Energy of the Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast like Kiana and Aurora did.

However, Freya always had an indescribable feeling whenever she used the Mental Amplifier, especially since seawater could isolate the aura of Honkai Energy. Therefore, if that Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast hid in the sea, Freya would be helpless.

Fortunately, this Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast did not hide in the sea, but instead wandered around in a ruined city.

"Ah, that's a real shame... Since you're so unlucky, don't blame me for being ruthless."

As she spoke, Freya raised her ten-meter-long lightning spear and ran forward a distance as if throwing a javelin. Before everyone's stunned expressions, she hurled the purple lightning spear, which was wrapped in lightning.

The thrown thunder spears roared and ripped across the sky.

"Guidance can improve accuracy. As long as the target is confirmed, the lightning spear can be automatically guided to hit the target. Convergence can continuously increase the power of the lightning spear during its flight. In fact, the farther the distance, the longer the time for the lightning spear to increase its power, and the greater the power of the lightning spear will naturally be. Finally, the reason why the resonance array composed of these three Key of Reason prototypes is called the Thunder Prison Spear Seat is also because of the final cage Stigmata..."

At this moment, numerous virtual screens were projected into the air above the deck of the Saintess, displaying images of lightning spears flying across the sky.

As the lightning bolts continued to accelerate, many screens only captured a fleeting flash of purple lightning.

Meanwhile, satellites in space could only capture a flash of purple light as it rapidly streaked across half the continent.

"... Is this the unique resonance array of the Key of Reason?"

"I see. By combining different basic Stigmata, all Valkyrie can choose the resonance array that best suits their style."

"Not only that, I remember that some Valkyrie possess Stigmata that enhance concentration and focus. If those Stigmata could also be transformed into Key of Reason, wouldn't ordinary people like us benefit as well? Even if we can't control multiple Key of Reason to form a resonance array like the Valkyrie, the impact of just one Key of Reason would be enormous."

"Yes, and this Key of Reason can connect to the Imaginary Space and extract Honkai Energy from it. Could this function be enhanced to create a small Honkai Energy furnace?"

After witnessing the demonstration, the senior executives of various departments had a variety of ideas and immediately began to communicate, once again excluding the belated Gray Serpent.

(Gray Serpent: What was that purple light just now? Can anyone tell me what happened? Don't ignore me!!)

Even some high-ranking members who originally belonged to World Serpent joined the heated discussion.

No matter how powerful a single Key of Reason is, it cannot compare to the Divine Key, and can only be compared to general-purpose combat weapons developed in the later stages of Previous Civilization.

However, after Freya announced this resonance array, the entire trend immediately changed. The researchers in charge of the Key of Reason, as well as Tesla, the main person in charge, naturally wore smug expressions.

Although the resonance array of the Key of Reason still relies on the Stigmata system created by Mei, it is equivalent to the predecessors creating addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, and the successors extending it on this basis.

Of course, this is also why Freya needs the Stigmata Terminal.

Stigmata's not just about customizing Stigmata, but also about developing unique combat and support Stigmata for our current civilization after fully understanding the Stigmata system.

Kevin couldn't help but marvel at this moment.

"It really is a surprise..."

Kevin had felt a sense of despair when he was told that the Stigmata Project was doomed to fail.

He hadn't expected Freya to take a different approach and continue the Stigmata Project in this way. Compared to the Stigmata Project, which could only create containers for the Herrscher of Finality, Freya's research on the Key of Reason and Resonance Array based on the Stigmata system was a pleasant surprise.

"Should I say, as expected of FU? No, I should say... as expected of Miss Freya. Kevin, you've really been held hostage by a formidable person."

As SU watched Freya release the resonance and hand over the three prototype Key of Reason to Tesla, he couldn't help but tease Kevin beside him.

Kevin sighed helplessly.

"They're clearly not the same person, yet they both hold grudges. Both FU and this young girl are incredibly petty."

"However, there is still a big gap between us and Mei."

That being said, Kevin had more confidence in whether the current civilization could defeat the Honkai.

"I'll assume you and Miss Freya have made up."

"No, given her temper, she'll probably hold a grudge against me for a while longer."

Kevin shook his head and said in a relaxed tone.

SU felt a pang of nostalgia at his friend's relaxed demeanor; it had been so long since he'd seen his best friend like that.

On the screen projected in mid-air, a purple bolt of lightning crashed down onto a pile of ruins. The purple thunder rumbled through the air, and even through the screen, one could feel the intense heat.

At that moment, in the ruins of a city on another continent Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast looked up and saw a bolt of purple lightning falling from the sky.

Its biological instincts told it to immediately dodge the purple lightning spear wrapped in thunder, but its instincts also told it that the lightning spear was impossible to avoid; all the energy of the lightning spear was directed at it, clearly indicating that it had some kind of tracking function.

The Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast suddenly left its spot and leaped more than 100 meters away in one sprint.

However, the falling Thunder Spear was like a piece of iron attracted by a magnet, and it veered towards the Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast just before it hit the ground.

The Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast originally intended to use obstacles to block the lightning spear, but the lightning spear, which was wrapped in lightning and made of Honkai Energy, was too fast and hit it directly before it could even use this method.

The distance across a continent, combined with nearly a minute of energy gathering, doubled the length of the purple lightning spear, and even increased its diameter several times over.

The enhanced effect of energy gathering made the Thunder Spear fly even faster.

The Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast was unable to dodge the Thunder Spear. The moment the purple Thunder Spear pierced its body, the burst of purple lightning formed Electromagnetic Cage that wrapped around the Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast. While burning the Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast's body with the Thunder Spear that pierced through it, it also bound it in the form of a cage. At the same time, the effect of the energy gathering continued to enhance the Thunder Spear, and the Electromagnetic Cage released from the Thunder Spear was also strengthened.

"While launching an attack, it uses Electromagnetic Cage to imprison the target. This is the true power of the [Thunder Prison Spear Seat]. Hmm, Mei, Amy, you've come at the right time. Come and try out the functions of these three Key of Reason prototypes. By the way, arrange for the airship to retrieve that Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast in three hours. Before that, let it get some shocks."

After Freya gave Tesla some instructions, she smiled at Kevin and continued.

"How about it? It's a lot like a Constellation, isn't it? But the potential of this resonance array is not just that. The most important part of this system is that it can combine different Stigmata to form the most suitable resonance array. At that time, it will not be just the current three Key of Reason resonating, but like constellations in the sky, a Starmap will be formed by multiple Key of Reason, thereby strengthening the Valkyrie."

466. You're really good at betraying your teammates.

The concept of constellations is just a harmless joke.

However, there was indeed a lot of strange knowledge etched into her soul, making it hard for Freya not to be curious about her past life. It can only be said that this strong curiosity is a common problem among researchers.

At this moment, the screen projected in mid-air showed the miserable scene of the Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast.

The high-ranking officials, led by the Valkyrie, immediately felt extremely pleased, like drinking an ice-cold cola on a sweltering summer day or soaking in a hot spring in the dead of winter.

Looking at the increasingly distorted smiles of the Valkyrie's higher-ups, one might mistake them for members of some evil (HX) organization. The phrase "all villains" could almost be used to describe their cruel smiles.

However, their feelings are understandable.

The trainees living in the St. Freya Academy dormitory, as well as the Sealed Rank Valkyrie living in the exclusive high-rise apartment floors with Freya, would naturally not understand what it feels like to suddenly have the water cut off, sewage flowing back from the sewers, or even to have the toilet suddenly erupt halfway through using it.

Although all the Valkyrie can be considered beautiful girls, the fairy tale that beautiful girls don't need to go to the toilet is impossible in reality.

These Valkyrie leaders and their squad members lived in the Valkyrie dormitory in Changkong City. The Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast had attacked Changkong City's sewage system repeatedly, and had always targeted the sewage pipe in the Valkyrie dormitory as its primary attack target...

Honestly, Freya had never seen such a despicable Honkai creature before.

If Freya hadn't known that this Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast was merely a target used to draw the Alliance's attention, she would have even suspected that the Honkai Consciousness had gone mad, wondering how it could come up with such a disgusting Honkai creature.

Of course, even if there is a so-called 'mastermind' behind this, Freya still suspects that the Honkai Consciousness has lost its mind, that it would create such a despicable Enhanced Humanoid Honkai Beast in order to cooperate with the actions of that 'mastermind'.

Ignoring the Valkyrie executives who all seemed like villains, Freya's attention fell on Mei Key of Reason.
