My days as a Simulation Herrscher since the Honkai Impact

The Herrscher of Reason can replicate all the Divine Keys, and Bai Chen has added this ability to his Olympus System. With Eden Star powered by satellites, combined with the Herrscher of the Void's understanding of space and gravity, this thing is no longer just a Divine Key, but a true planetary wonder.

This time, no one could stop the earthquake. The shockwaves swept through all human settlements in the surrounding area, affecting places like Qingce Village, Liyue Harbor, and even Mondstadt, which was far away in the rear.

The earth was tearing apart, the mountains were howling in agony, and the Star of Eden had altered the direction of gravity within a radius of hundreds of miles and amplified its gravitational pull through the Olympus system.

Sky Island is merely a natural wonder, and the Jade Pavilion is just a tiny creation of humankind. Now, nearly a quarter of the land between Mondstadt and Liyue, along with the mineral veins below and the mountains above, has been lifted up and suspended by the Star of Eden created by the Olympus System.

If you can't defeat an enemy who can control the land, then tear the entire land off the planet, lift it high, and then crush it.

Zhongli had just stopped the seismic waves heading towards Liyue Harbor in the ley lines when he discovered that the ley lines, which he could normally move at will, suddenly stopped obeying his commands.

“It’s crazy!”

Upon realizing the unbridled power of the Star of Eden above and the entire land that had been lifted up, Zhongli finally became more furious than ever before.

This brutal and reckless geological movement will not only disrupt Liyue and Mondstadt, but also cause irreversible damage to the entire continent of Teyvat due to the existence of ley lines, a unique energy circuit.

Reduced grain production and withered plants are minor issues; if the flow of elements is disrupted, it could even escalate into a natural disaster that sweeps across the entire continent.

Unfortunately, Zhongli was unaware that Bai Chen was already using satellites to establish a weather control system encompassing the entire Teyvat world. Even without this current scene, many extreme weather events that were normally unimaginable would still occur in various regions in the future, until everyone realized just how terrifying and merciless the otherworldly demons that had arrived were.

The earth and stones that were lifted into the air converged towards a single point under the spiritual resonance of a deity. The layers of earth that originally covered the Hall of Heroes disappeared, revealing the Hall of Heroes, which was shaped like a huge sphere.

Zhongli had never dared to gather such a large amount of rock element, fearing that excessive concentration would cause irreversible damage to the earth. But now, forced by circumstances, he had no more room for hesitation. Only seven or eight scattered floating islands remained, along with the human villages that these islands housed.

In the tug-of-war with the Star of Eden, all the soil and rocks above that were not supporting human villages were compressed again, eventually forming a jet-black crystal like obsidian. Beneath the crystal, a golden dragon coiled its body, supporting the crystal with its forepaws, standing above the exposed magma layer underground.

This is Morax's true form; Zhongli is merely a disguise he made to enter the human world.

But just as the main body appeared, another jet-black sphere emerged from the magma below. That was another Star of Eden, a gravity anchor point assembled from a fleet of machines and paired with the Olympus system in the sky. Although it hadn't existed for very long, it was enough to serve as the other end of a gravitational execution platform.

The two Eden Stars, one in the sky and one on the ground, simultaneously activated their traction, using the giant dragon in mid-air as the center, mimicking a binary star system rotating in the universe, creating a gravitational twist point.

Morax's body, located at the point of gravity, is locked at both ends by different forces. Even with the power of the Rock God, he cannot find a way to break free in the air where there is nowhere to use as leverage.

Meanwhile, the Moon Throne, which had appeared in front of Valhalla long ago, began the final step of its energy charging, with a blackish-red light, resembling a solar flare, gathering at its center.

The Olympus system certainly has other attack methods besides Eden's Star, but none of them are as convenient and quick as using the Moon Throne direct attack.

But Zhongli did not sit idly by. The giant rock element that had condensed into a crystal suddenly flew into the air. Then, seemingly verified by some rule, it gained an initial acceleration that was enough to burn the air, like a meteorite falling from the sky.

This is the final move that the Rock God uses to destroy powerful enemies. It uses the power of the gods' rules to imitate meteorites from the sky. No matter how strong the demon god's body is, it will be vulnerable in the face of the power from the stars in the sky.

However, the previously invincible celestial phenomena were now useless. To Bai Chen, meteorites were like meteor showers, materials used to forge Damascus steel. They were nothing more than hard rocks that could be broken.

Just as Bai Chen summoned the Olympus System in the sky and activated the simulated Heavenly Fire Judgment module to drop the Sword of Damocles from the sky, another massive wave of Honkai energy suddenly flew in from afar.

The Honkai energy contained a violence that seemed capable of burning everything in the world, not only scorching the enemy in front of it to ashes, but even burying the user himself under this extreme power.

It is truly the Heavenly Fire Judgment!

Kevin and his group, who were sent by Bai Chen to Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain early in the morning to collect the Frost Nails and the Relic Heavy Machine, and to try to set up a permanent spatial passage to the Honkai World, have returned!

"Kevin! Spare the dragon!" Bai Chen was genuinely shocked this time.

Chapter Twenty-Six: Yearning for the Pillar of Heaven

Flames, burning everything, flew in from the distant horizon, their concentrated power tearing cracks in the space along their path.

This is the most destructive Divine Key in the Honkai world, the Judgment of Heavenly Fire. Forged using the core of the Herrscher of Flame, this Divine Key can even backfire on its user, burning both the user and the enemy to ashes. However, Kevin can completely control this weapon and will not die from a single attack.

Upon his return, Kevin was unaware of Morax's situation. He only knew that the original base, Valhalla, was currently engaged in battle in mid-air, so he drew his Heavenly Judgment sword from afar.

Earlier, after Kiana and Mei left Valhalla, Bai Chen asked Otto to go to another place on the border between Mondstadt and Liyue, Dragonspine Mountains.

Due to the unique ley lines of the Teyvat continent, it is perpetually covered in snow, and everything is frozen. In addition, there is another special feature: a celestial nail once fell into the snow-capped mountains, destroying the civilization that once existed there.

Bai Chen didn't know exactly what the Frostfire Nails were, he could only guess that they were some kind of special space-based weapon, but more importantly, there were many remnants of the Kanria civilization there, and he hoped that Otto would bring some back for Dr. Mei to study.

However, after Otto and Kallen arrived at the snow mountain, a message suddenly came back that they had discovered that Dragonspine Snow Mountain was a weak point in the space of the Teyvat world. The space there was more active than in other places, and it seemed to have ready-made spatial openings, which were very suitable for establishing a permanent spatial passage to the Honkai world.

However, Otto and Karen did not have the necessary equipment and were unable to make more precise measurements. So Dr. May sent Kevin to bring the equipment to support the snow mountain and also to help Otto clear out the monsters on the snow mountain.

Whether it was because he finished his business over there or because the chaotic energy here attracted Kevin's attention, although the fight between Bai Chen and Zhong Li was short, even brief, Kevin actually managed to return at the last moment.

The problem is that Bai Chen doesn't need Kevin's help at all right now. There is only one Rock God in the world. It's always more useful to be alive than dead. It would be such a reckless and ruthless act to attack right away!

Fortunately, the Honkai energy was transmitted very quickly. Although the Heavenly Fire Judgment was about to strike Zhongli, who was locked in mid-air, Kevin heard Bai Chen's message and knew that he was probably going to make things worse, so he withdrew his power at the last moment.

Most of the power of the Heavenly Fire Judgment cleaved into empty air, leaving only a flaming sword hilt that slammed heavily onto Zhongli's head.

This slap to the head was arguably the crispest sound since the creation of Teyvat. After a deafening roar, the massive dragon was slammed onto the Star of Eden below, hanging in the center of the black sphere, completely unconscious.

“I told you there was no need to rush, Bai Chen would handle the trouble himself.” Otto, who was slowly flying over behind Kevin, spread his hands. He had been watching Kallen tease a few white foxes unique to the snow mountain with fruit, and he didn’t care at all even when he felt the drastic changes in Honkai energy behind him. He didn’t expect Kevin to lack trust in Bai Chen and rush back in such a hurry.

Of course, he might also be worried about Dr. May, who is still in Valhalla, but with his icy expression, Kevin would never admit it.

"Bring Morax back, and our plan will move into its second phase." The aircraft landed on Kevin and Otto's shoulders, and Bai Chen said with a hint of helplessness.

He had originally planned to try out some more research and development technologies on Morax. The weapons he developed based on the blueprints left by the previous civilization and his understanding of the Herrscher of Reason's powers had not yet been put into real combat. He had finally gotten a free opportunity to experiment, but Kevin interrupted it.

He secretly decided that he would just ask Kevin to be his sparring partner from now on. Anyway, all those weapons had corresponding output data, and with precise calculations, there was no way something would go wrong.

The unconscious dragon was quickly taken to the Hall of Heroes, where Bai Chen specially built a cell to isolate him from all energy, especially the flow of external elements, to prevent any accidents.

Dr. Mei, who rushed to the scene upon hearing the news, quickly completed her work, collecting blood, cutting, and gathering samples in one go. All the tissue materials were then stored in the laboratory's cold storage.

"This is the creator of the rock pillar? Although it is not metal, it has excellent energy conductivity. Its permeability to Honkai energy is even stronger than that of Soul Steel. It even has semiconductor characteristics, making it very suitable to replace our existing materials as the motherboard for the next generation of chips in the Alaya Consciousness Project."

Dr. Mei held a stack of experimental results in his hand, looking at Morax, who was coiled up in a circle, with the eyes of someone eyeing a gold mine. It was not impossible to create similar substitutes for his rock creations using technology from the last era, but it would likely require a huge cost, be extremely expensive, and take a lot of time. It was even possible that the maximum production capacity of four or five factories could not match the number that Morax could create with a wave of his hand.

"It's just that we don't know whether this power comes from his divine status or is a universal characteristic of his racial talent. If it's the latter, we can collect his bone marrow stem cell tissue and use his cells to make a biological crucible. As long as we feed him nutrient solution, we can continuously produce what we need."

With a wave of his hand, Dr. Mei decided on the next research direction. There had been no further progress on Barbatos's side. All the experiments that could be conducted in the short term had been completed. It could only be said that Barbatos's biological form was too different from the creatures of the Honkai world. Dr. Mei was also somewhat at a loss as to how to deal with this strange thing that was generally somewhere between an energy creature and a material creature.

Bronya always followed behind Dr. Mei. Bai Chen was too busy to deal with various matters to provide her with further education, so her courses were temporarily handed over to Dr. Mei.

In fact, Dr. Mei is more reliable than Bai Chen when it comes to teaching and nurturing students. At least in the last era, she genuinely guided many young people in the Fire Moths. However, she spends more time on her own experiments and doesn't have Bai Chen's perverse interest in disciplining these girls.

“Bronya has mastered the manufacturing principles of energy blocking devices and isolation equipment very well. With her here, there’s no need to worry. Bai Chen, you should first establish a fixed spatial channel connecting to the Honkai World. I plan to return to World Serpent to replenish a batch of experimental supplies and recruit some assistants as well.”

Reaching out to embrace Bronya, Dr. May's mature and alluring figure caused the young girl's face to flush slightly. It seemed that during their time together, Bronya had awakened some extraordinary attribute.

Otto clearly shared similar plans with Dr. May: "I also want to relocate Schicksal's research department here. Some projects that are inconvenient to conduct there can be carried out in uninhabited areas of this world."

This was a plan set before they came to the world. If they hadn't encountered Barbatos upon arrival, and if the sudden events hadn't led to the current situation, the group's primary purpose in coming to Teyvat should have been to find a place where they could establish a stable spatial passage.

"Speaking of which, Keqing and Karen haven't returned yet. How's your operation in the snow mountain going?"

Only Otto and Kevin have just returned; Kallen, who was there as an extra, and Keqing, who was there as a guide, haven't shown up yet. Bai Chen didn't notice that the two were carrying any relic heavy mobile suits; those things are everywhere in the snowy mountains, and with Otto and Kevin's abilities, shouldn't they have been able to catch them easily?

“Hmm, a somewhat unexpected discovery. Regarding the Frostfire Nail you mentioned, although it's shattered beyond recognition and has undergone numerous modifications, you can still see traces of its original form.” Otto took out a fragment from his waist—a small piece of the energy core crystal he had removed from the Frostfire Nail.

The moment Bai Chen touched the fragment, he immediately discovered that it contained the same energy as his own. This thing was actually powered by Honkai energy, and even the nature of Honkai energy was exactly the same. A weapon that fell from the Teyvat continent thousands of years ago used Honkai energy as its energy source, and the implications of this were self-evident.

"Those remnant machines are very similar to some of the equipment that Destiny once had, and could even be said to have the same origin. A large amount of the technology used in them should come from the archaeology of the previous era civilization, and obvious technological gaps and divisions can be detected. When I was disassembling them, I even found that the materials used in the core parts were completely different from the rest of the parts. It seems that this material can only be cast using a special furnace, and they only have one such furnace."

Otto is also one of the greatest inventors of modern times. Although no technological product has been released under his name, he is actually the most deeply hidden behind-the-scenes figure in the Schicksal research department. Therefore, his research on the Relic Machine is certainly credible and in no way inferior to Dr. May's.

"But there are also things I don't understand. I've never seen the material they used to forge the mechanical core before. This metal is not recorded in the Destiny Database, and I've never even seen it in the Void Archives."

The archbishop then produced a very heavy-looking metal ring. At the center of this ring, adorned with layers of patterns, was a slowly rotating mechanical sphere. The sphere radiated a weak but stable amount of energy, clearly indicating a healthy and harmless energy core capable of providing a long-term, stable power supply.

This thing is called the Chaos Core on the continent of Teyvat; it is the energy hub of the Relic Heavy Machine. As for the origin of the name, it is because one can feel the flow of all kinds of elements within this hub. These elements are mixed together, without proportion or fixed flow pattern, yet they form a strange self-circulating system.

Dr. Mei picked up the Chaos Furnace Core, and the Zero Divine Key on his body automatically entered scientific research exploration mode. After a brief examination, even his handsome eyebrows couldn't help but furrow: "It's not the technology of our civilization. Could it be a special technology developed by the locals by combining elemental power? No, the equipment required for this metal smelting method must have a considerable industrial base. If this industrial base can be achieved, this civilization should theoretically be able to manufacture spacecraft."

"A flash of inspiration from some wise man in civilization? But this material looks somewhat familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before, but I can't quite place it..."

Dr. Mei frowned and muttered to herself, lost in her own thoughts. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she must have seen something similar somewhere, but she couldn't remember where. It seemed like she had only caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye, leaving a faint impression, and then she hadn't paid any attention to it since.

Things gradually became more complicated. Bai Chen originally thought that all the ancient ruins in the Teyvat world should have been born on the basis of the legacy of the previous civilization, but he did not expect that other forces would intervene now.

However, this is also the charm of exploring the world. If everything were under our control, wouldn't arriving in a new world seem too boring?

Bai Chen casually opened a spatial passage leading to Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, and together with Kevin and Otto, they returned to the top of the snow mountain.

Dragonspine Snow Mountain is a continuous snow-covered mountain range. Due to the accumulation of ice elements, the temperature at the top is extremely low, and prolonged exposure will cause elemental damage. Ordinary explorers simply cannot survive in such low temperatures. Even those who possess the Eye of God will freeze to death in the cold wind if they do not have a campfire for warmth or a similar heating device to raise their body temperature.

Of course, Otto, who uses a Soulsteel body, and Kevin, whose body temperature is constantly at a frigid level, are completely unaffected by this low temperature. However, Kallen and Keqing, who are traveling with them, will need the protection of a temporary camp to conduct normal exploration in the snowy mountains.

For hundreds of years, no one had been able to reach the summit of the snow-capped mountain due to the seal, until Kevin and Otto forcibly broke the seal and created a path to the Nails of Frost.

At the highest peak of Longji Snow Mountain, there is a sunken valley, and floating directly above the valley are the broken, silvery-white metal pillars, the Frost Nails.

In a newly built camp beneath the Frost Spikes, Keqing and Kallen stood in front of a pile of dismantled relic heavy machines, facing off against the two people opposite them.

One of them was a boy with short, platinum blonde hair, elegant in demeanor, wearing a well-fitting simple suit, carrying a drawing board on his back, and with several paintbrushes and paint bags tucked into his waistband. The other was a very cute little girl dressed in bright red, as cheerful as a bombshell.

Bai Chen's eyes lit up slightly. He recognized the two Mondstadt people, Abedo and his sister Cleo, two alchemists, exactly the kind of talent he needed.

Meanwhile, Abedo, who was patiently negotiating, was unaware that someone was targeting him. He continued to explain calmly, "Gentlemen, breaking through space here will release the evil hidden inside the snow mountain. So please wait patiently before I cleanse the filth."

Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Homunculus Abedo and the Newborn Herrscher

Abedo's arrival at the snow mountain was not accidental; he had received a commission from the Knights Commander, Jean.

Yesterday, after Bai Chen and the others left, Captain Qin asked Abedo some questions about alchemists. Abedo and Klee's mother were both the most renowned alchemists on the continent of Teyvat, and their research in alchemy was highly prestigious.

For alchemists, space is also a part of their research. Powerful alchemists are no less adept at controlling space than the immortals of Liyue, and may even be better at creating items.

The leader of the guild hopes that Abedo can create items that stabilize the space around Mondstadt, so that at least within Mondstadt, there is a way to monitor spatial fluctuations within the city.

Abedo did indeed learn how to make a spatial detection device from his master, but several important materials could only be found in Dragonspine Mountain, and he didn't have any in stock. That's why he took Klee, who had always wanted to go out and play, to Dragonspine Mountain to collect materials.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving at Dragonspine, they encountered Kevin and his group violently breaking through the barrier. Completely ignorant of the ley lines on the Teyvat continent, their destruction was extremely brutal and appalling. Unfortunately, Abedor couldn't keep up with their rampage and could only watch helplessly as the precious ancient ruins of Dragonspine were leveled.

Despite their best efforts, they only managed to catch up with Karen and Keqing, who were guarding the camp below the Frost Spike. It was only when they saw the device behind them used to break through space that Abedo stepped in to stop them.

"Tell him what you have to say; he's the one in charge of this matter."

Upon seeing Bai Chen appear, Karen pointed at Abedo, signaling him to stop talking to her about those strange and incomprehensible things, like spatial parameters and alchemical systems. Karen couldn't understand any of it; it was just wasting her patience.

"You're the ones who took that ancient book from the Mondstadt Library and came from another world? Then you should know what the consequences would be if a permanent spatial portal were set up here to connect to the world of Teyvat."

Abelardo is exceptionally handsome, so handsome that he looks like a sculpture. When he frowns and talks to you, you might even subconsciously ignore his gender.

A dark blue flame ignited in Bai Chen's eyes. He looked Abedo up and down for a good seven or eight seconds before the flame in his eyes died down.

The Herrscher of Reason's analytical abilities remain useful even on the continent of Teyvat. Although, in principle, Bai Chen cannot use this ability to analyze life and can only apply it to inanimate rules, the one in front of him is an exception.

"If I had to choose one thing to take away from Teyvat, I would definitely choose you, Abedor." Bai Chen's index finger twitched, a rare longing rising in his heart.

"Even if I am an alchemical being, it is very impolite to be stared at like this. People from another world, with your technology, it is impossible that you do not have a way to create artificial humans. Please do not have any unnecessary thoughts about me." Abedo sighed with his arms crossed. He had not felt this stinging pain of being seen through in a long time. In fact, if he did not admit his identity, very few people on this continent could tell his origin.
