Unlike her relationships with Fukaros and Funina, Black Seele is not actually Seele, but a special individual born from the Stigmata.
Although the two share the same body, their 'fundamentals' are different.
This will not change just because Black Seele considers herself to be Seele, or because Seele identifies Black Seele as a part of herself.
Unless she 'eats' the other person.
Since it's not Seele, then Black Seele's existence in this body is no different from that of a temporary resident, except that she's stayed there for a long time and is too familiar with it.
However, she didn't seem to realize that Seele had been switched.
The one currently with her, the one who holds the reins of this body, is Jiang.
This is not surprising, after all, the [body swap] I possess is not so simple.
What it is doing is not merely an exchange at the level of 'consciousness', but something more fundamental, where consciousness is just the most superficial external manifestation.
This is precisely why the ability of "body swapping" possesses the power to "acquire the power of others"—no, more accurately, the ability to "imprint power blueprints".
When Jiang Qiao discovered the true nature of the imprinted power blueprint, she understood it to some extent.
On the surface, exchange is the most important effect of this ability, while power is just an add-on.
In reality, the effect of imprinting the blueprint of power is the most important function of this ability; exchange is merely a means, a process, to achieve this goal.
The most urgent task seems to be to communicate with Seele as soon as possible.
but...
Looking at the Moon Throne beneath her feet, 'Seele' sighed helplessly.
Seele was also brought along during this Great Collapse.
Of course, her purpose in coming here wasn't to provide any combat power—in fact, Ain and Kiana were against Seele coming along.
After all, this is the front line in the fight against the Honkai, and it's very dangerous.
However, Bronya was there... Actually, Duck wasn't too keen on having Seele come along, but she was worried that Seele would misunderstand and think they were looking down on her. In addition, her confidence and vanity got the better of her, so after careful consideration, she brought her along under the pretext of 'broadening her horizons'.
Putting aside the fact that they are indeed capable of protecting Seele, as long as she doesn't step down from the Moon Throne, what if something were to happen... ptooey, ptooey, how could anything possibly happen?!
"Well, I'm fine."
Although there was no need to hide it, Jiang Qiao, focused on the present, didn't explain the matter to Hei Xier, after all, the latter had a bad temper and it would be troublesome if she made a scene.
Most importantly, it is clearly this region of Australia that is currently experiencing a massive collapse.
"It's a little weird."
Gazing at the simulated black hole covering a large part of Australia, 'Seele', resting her chin on her hand, frowned slightly.
"What's weird?"
Why would such a black hole be deliberately created?
Pseudo-black holes are also classified into different types.
Although the term "black hole" itself symbolizes extreme 'destructive power', artificial simulated black holes like Eden's Star and Herrscher of Rock are undoubtedly controllable to some extent.
Needless to say, its destructive power was immense; the entire Mu continent of the pre-civilization was submerged in the Sea of Quanta.
Those with weaker destructive power, like the multiple fights with pufferfish and Fu Hua's dealing with Kevin, mainly focused on 'delaying time'.
Australia's current situation is trending towards the latter.
If the Herrschers that are born are unconscious and anti-human types, then the opponent should choose the former and kill as many humans as possible in this era.
If it's done intentionally, then doing it deliberately suggests that the other party is probably plotting something.
"Hmph, it's definitely not a good thing anyway. Whatever that Herrscher wants to do, just tear it to shreds!" Black Seele, with her fiery temper, felt something was amiss, but she was too lazy to think about it. She grumbled, her attitude quite simple and brutal.
"..."
It's worth mentioning that the simulated black hole technique itself would completely isolate the inside from the outside, making it easy for people outside to get in, but difficult for people inside to get out.
In other words, Kiana and Bronya, who had already gone into the Moon Throne and Salt Lake Base, have completely lost contact with them.
Gazing at the simulated black hole that seemed capable of swallowing everything, 'Xier'—Jiang Qiaohui—narrowed her eyes slightly, her clear, beautiful eyes revealing a hint of thoughtfulness and amusement.
Within Australia.
"Ugh, this place is so uncomfortable." Kiana bit her lip and complained uncomfortably as she set foot on Australian soil and entered the simulated black hole.
Although the primary purpose of this pseudo-black hole is not destruction, its very nature dictates that it cannot be entirely without harm.
Under the influence of the simulated black hole, the gravity in the interior of Australia is completely different from that in the outside, making it difficult enough to move an inch.
Kiana and Bronya are no exception.
Although their physical abilities are superior to those of ordinary people, gravity is a very special thing.
Especially when it acts on organs, fragile organs do not have the same resilience as muscle tissue.
However, the moment the two stepped into the simulated black hole, a faint glow emanated from within their bodies.
It alleviates the pressure of gravity to some extent.
But the most important thing is that it relies on Bronya to manifest the Star of Eden.
There's no need to use a simulated black hole; simply creating an anti-gravity field would greatly reduce the strain on their senses.
"Phew, that feels much better."
"Hmph, Eden's Star is the nemesis of the Herrscher of Rock." Bronya raised her little face, looking confident.
Her confidence didn't come from nowhere.
With the Star of Eden, the Herrscher of Geo's gravitational authority will be greatly reduced, and in addition to being able to use the Star of Eden to restrain the opponent, I can also use the Herrscher of Reason's power to attack—this is the confidence that the name of truth brings me!
Especially after generations of dedicated work, the very foundation of Eden's Star has been almost completely wiped clean.
As the ultimate Herrscher of Reason and the strongest Herrscher of Reason, wouldn't it be easy for Bronya to take down someone who has been thoroughly studied?
We didn't see anyone along the way.
This is not surprising, after all, it is difficult for ordinary people to survive in such a harsh environment, and because a small collapse had occurred before, Australia, which is a frequent location of collapse, had already been moved towards Europe under the arrangement of the Oceania branch.
The majority of the Australian survivors live in the small, unaffected area.
"Bronya sensed a powerful Honkai energy reaction ahead; the enemy is right in front of us."
For a Herrscher, the existence of another Herrscher is as conspicuous as a spotlight, especially a newly born Herrscher... Regardless of which one, it is obviously unrealistic to try to contain or hide that massive Honkai energy level.
Soon, they saw the source of this Honkai energy reaction.
A young man wearing a trench coat and with heavy dark circles under his eyes...
The Ninth Lawyer, the Lawyer of Rock, Chen Tianwu.
It wasn't Night Owl—although World Serpent was indeed facing a shortage of cadres due to its repeated defeats, the discovery of 'Night Owl' itself came from Miss Raven's business expansion.
According to the original plot, after the collapse of Manila, he was rescued by Anna as a survivor. He then joined the underground organization Thousand Fist Society in an attempt to find a way to cure his Honkai disease, but was eventually kidnapped by Miss Dodo.
Unfortunately, although the Manila Collapse still occurred this time, and he was still saved by Anna, Raven no longer had the time or inclination to act as a pimp.
After graduating from the Paradise of the Past training program, she followed suit and went back to her old professions, such as working as a mercenary to earn money and taking care of children.
The good news is that perhaps because Miss Dodo had been the second-in-command too many times, Gray Snake may have become wary, so she has now been marginalized.
The bad news is—World Serpent's cadre allowance has also been cancelled.
Although the dodo was very dissatisfied with this, it could only resist through action.
You're not going to pay me, huh? If you're not going to pay me, then don't expect me to do any work!
In conclusion, Mr. Chen Tianwu successfully missed the opportunity to become a World Snake cadre and began to grow unchecked.
Judging from the current situation, he does indeed look quite wild.
They went straight to Australia and caused a huge uproar.
"Look, there's someone over there."
Kiana immediately spotted a beautiful figure imprisoned in a gravity prison not far from Chen Tianwu.
"It seems to be... the Valkyrie of Destiny!"
—Anna Shaniat.
As if by some twist of fate, she still appeared beside Chen Tianwu.
However, unlike before, the situation between these two people has become extremely distorted.
"Why didn't you save my sister... why did you save me..."
His voice was low, filled with resentment, and his angry words echoed.
Kiana, sensing something, asked:
"Hey, I'm telling you... why did you arrest her?"
"...Why did you arrest her?"
You ask me why?
"My suffering is all thanks to this woman!"
"Because...she saved you?"
