“It’s very simple. Cocolia is currently plotting with Gray Serpent for the Desire Gem in New Zealand. If you go back to North America to deal with her, she will probably achieve her goal in the meantime.”
"The Gemstone is in New Zealand?! That Cocolia guy!"
Tesla exclaimed in surprise, followed by gritted teeth.
—It's really hard to evaluate the intelligence system of anti-entropy, or rather, the anti-entropy conservative faction. It's not that it doesn't exist, but it's not much different from not having it at all.
However, she then noticed another person mentioned in Jiang Qiao's words, and was somewhat puzzled:
"Who is Gray Serpent?!"
"A force hidden in the shadows, a remnant of a previous civilization... It would be too complicated to explain everything, so just know that it is your enemy."
The silver-haired girl spoke casually.
Leaking information about World Serpent to Anti-Entropy was useless, after all, these three... are really hard to judge.
It might alert the enemy prematurely and disrupt his plans, so there's no need to reveal too much about this.
"...I understand. We'll change course and head towards New Zealand immediately."
Ai Yin nodded.
The Gem of Desire must not fall into the hands of that vixen, Cocolia.
Don't you see how a mere mortal conquering a gem in Changkong City almost led that female fox to do something horrible? With this precedent in mind, they have no doubt that their colleague could go even further.
Changkong City was unaware of the situation and had no time to worry about it. Now that they know Cocolia's next move, they can no longer allow the other side to continue to act recklessly.
"Do as you please. Besides informing you, Bronya also has her own purposes."
"?"
Faced with the three somewhat puzzled individuals, the silver-haired girl revealed the true purpose of her trip in her indifferent, formula-scented words:
"Give me the core of the Law of Reason, how about it?"
The Herrscher of the Void was ultimately unsuitable for the Bronya. The reason he forcibly borrowed the Herrscher of the Void's core despite the burden was simply to use the Imaginary Authority to teleport to Welt Yang and the others. This was thanks to the fact that Welt Yang and the others were not far away. If they had already reached North America, even with a portion of the Primal Authority, Jiang Qiao might not have been able to complete such a long spatial teleportation.
For the sake of the Bronya, and in order to bring back a new Herrscher of Reason cub's power when the exchange takes place, it is necessary for him to take the power belonging to the Herrscher of Reason from Welt Yang.
"..."
Yang frowned.
This request is not unreasonable; on the contrary, it is extremely unreasonable.
Although he did not covet the power belonging to the Herrscher of Reason, the power of the Herrscher of Reason was inherited from his predecessor Welt Joyce, and also carried on the thoughts of 300,000 people.
Even though the girl in front of him was also a Herrscher fighting for humanity, Yang could not easily hand over this power.
Furthermore, the power of the Herrscher of Reason also requires adaptability; it's not that if you possess the power of the Herrscher of Void, you can easily grasp the authority of the Herrscher of Reason.
These are two different domains, unless—you are a Herald.
However, with Yang's keen eyesight and analytical abilities, it was not difficult to see that the girl in front of him was still just a human. Moreover, even though she had mastered the power of the Herrscher of the Void very well, she was using it in a way that caused damage to her body at all times.
Yang tried to dissuade him in a tactful way:
"Your body can no longer bear the power of a second Herrscher."
To be honest, he even considered suggesting that the other party strip away the power of the Herrscher of the Void as well.
If this continues, it won't be long before Bronya's body is ruined due to overuse of the Herrscher of the Void's power.
If you add the power of the Herrscher of Reason... don't assume that just because the Herrscher of Reason fights for humanity, this power is kind or gentle to people. It is essentially the power of a Herrscher, and its ferocity is no less than that of the core of the Herrscher of the Void. Even if the will contained within actively cooperates with Bronya, this is still beyond the control of the girl in front of you.
If he could, he really didn't want a Herrscher who stood on the side of humanity, just like himself, to meet such an end.
"As expected of the Herrscher of Reason who can analyze and reconstruct, she saw through Bronya's physical condition at a glance." The silver-haired girl's words were full of praise.
These words, when heard by Yang, made him think that the other party had heeded his advice, and he immediately planned to further persuade the other party to give up the power of the Herrscher of the Void:
"so..."
"That's why I need the core of the Herald of Reason even more."
Before Yang could finish speaking, the girl's unquestionable and affirmative words rang in their ears.
This left Yang speechless.
I'm trying to persuade you to give up the power of the Herrscher. I've already explained the dangers to you, so why are you still insisting? Are you really planning to die in front of everyone?
"Oh dear, why are you so stubborn? Wouldn't it be better for a child like you to live a little longer? Why do you have to try to kill yourself?"
Tesla was somewhat dissatisfied. It wasn't that she cared about the powers of the Herrscher of Reason... well, she did care a little, but what she cared about more than the powers was Bronya herself.
For some reason, she seemed to see the shadow of an old friend in the girl in front of her.
They were equally confident and full of vigor.
Therefore, she hopes that the other person can live a good life.
"Don't get me wrong, Tesla may have said some harsh things, but she just didn't want anything to happen to you."
"I know, but—"
"I can."
The silver-haired girl's expression remained unchanged, appearing so calm, yet one could sense a composure and confidence within that calmness, as if nothing could faze her.
"you..."
Looking at Bronya like this, Yang hesitated briefly.
But before he could respond to the other party's request, a piercing siren blared from inside the warship—
[WARNING! WARNING! High Honkai energy reaction detected! High Honkai energy reaction detected!]
The location is...the sea area of China!
Chapter 134 Chi You: What the hell is going on?
"It's a Honkai Beast! This energy level... is close to, no, it has even far surpassed, the Judgment-class Honkai Beast Benares that appeared during the Second Great Honkai Impact!"
Although it was suffering greatly under the suppression of Destiny, Anti-Entropy still had its own satellites. Ai Yin urgently used the satellites to display the images of that sea area on the large screen in the central cabin of the warship. Looking at the data information reflected by the huge black shadow hidden under the sea in the image, she was very tense.
Despite the dismal battle records of the Judgment-class Honkai Beasts that appeared in the story, there is no doubt that in the standard system established by Schicksal, Judgment-class Honkai Beasts are dangerous beings comparable to Herrschers.
"What's going on? How could a Honkai Beast of this level be hiding in this sea?!"
Judgment-class Honkai Beasts are only born from massive Honkai events and usually appear as byproducts of Herrschers. Although this concept has been largely obsolete in this era, the appearance of this behemoth has undoubtedly left the two doctors from Anti-Entropy somewhat bewildered.
The third major collapse in Changkong City has clearly not yet occurred, and there has been no news of a fourth major collapse in New Zealand. Moreover, this is the waters of China.
According to the database records, there have been almost no major collapses in China. The most recent one was in Siberia, in some remote place.
"It is [Chi You]."
Bronya stared at the area on the screen and the huge black shadow, and immediately recognized its true form.
The two PhDs from Reverse Entropy had some doubts about this answer:
"Chi You? Isn't that a figure from ancient Chinese legends?"
Because the Shenzhou region has never experienced any major collapses, they pay very little attention to it and know very little about it.
The silver-haired girl explained:
"That was a Judgment-class Honkai Beast born at the beginning of civilization. Due to the evil consequences of the previous civilization's Fire Seed Project's rapid technological development, [Chi You] destroyed the early Shenzhou region and was sealed in the abyss called Jiuyou by the remnants of the previous civilization at the cost of their lives. Because the time was too long and those who knew about it at the time also suffered misfortunes, the details were not recorded and were only remembered by later generations in the form of myths and legends."
Chi You is a very special Honkai Beast.
Logically speaking, the remnants of the previous civilization should not have been directly attacked by a Judgment-class Honkai Beast. If that were the case, the first Herrscher should have been born at the beginning of the civilization.
However, given Chi You's special ability to grow in size and strength by devouring land, Jiang Qiao judged that this thing was originally just an Emperor-level Honkai Beast. It was only because it was suppressed too late that it developed for too long and became the Judgment-level Honkai Beast we see today.
He did not conceal Chi You's abilities. Although the three of them were curious about how he learned this information, smart people always know to keep things tacit. Since Jiang Qiao was unwilling to say, they would not ask.
"Chi You is heading towards Guangdong and Guangxi, probably intending to devour them and further restore his power."
Knowing that Chi You had awakened from the seal and was still recovering, Bronya looked at Chi You's trajectory map and a hint of understanding appeared in her eyes.
"How can that be done!"
Tesla immediately cried out in alarm.
Even if she didn't pay much attention to Shenzhou, she knew that the Guangdong and Guangxi regions were densely populated areas of Shenzhou. If Chi You went there, it would definitely cause heavy casualties, and the information about the collapse would definitely not be kept secret.
"Yes, we can't let it run into that kind of place."
"and--"
Gazing at the flight path on the map, a cold glint flashed in Bronya's silver eyes:
"Kiana and the others' ship is nearby."
"Mr. Walter, make your choice."
Not wanting to waste any more time, the silver-haired girl fixed her gaze on Yang, who was present.
“Bronya doesn’t want us to have to get the result she wants through an unnecessary conflict. You know, that wouldn’t be good for humanity, for you, or even for Bronya.”
