Don't shoot, I'm just a Honkai Impact 3rd content creator!

Even now, when Su recalls that memory, her resolve still wavers.

If Durandal can also perform actions that satisfy Su in that memory, then she will be able to pass Su's test, and Su will then pass on the method he has observed to truly defeat the Honkai to Durandal!

P.S.: Some posts have raised questions about whether Anka should be called Durandal now. In fact, the timeline of the "Legacy" comic is after World Travel, and Durandal had already been added to his name by then.

Chapter Sixty-One: The Stigmata Project and the Herrscher of the End!

Inside the base, Bianca sat alone, silently drinking her wine.

All the staff and test personnel at the base, including Dr. Otto, died at the hands of the Eighth Herrscher; only she survived.

Bianca was at a loss; she didn't know what to do next.

Just when Bianca was feeling down, someone came to the base and brought her good news.

And this person is none other than Bianca's best friend, Rita Losweiser, the strongest warrior of the Firemoth!

Rita snatched the bottle from Bianca's hand.

"Drinking alcohol is not a good habit."

"Dr. Mei has sent word that, based on the information you provided, the location of the Eighth Herrscher will be determined soon."

Once the location of the Eighth Herrscher is confirmed, there is no doubt that the Flame Chaser will send out its most elite forces to strike it, and this Herrscher is practically dead!

Despite it being such exciting news, Bianca just couldn't feel happy at all.

"But Dr. Otto is dead, and most of the experimental personnel in this base are dead too..."

Seeing Bianca's dejected expression, Rita didn't know how to comfort her; she had never been good at comforting others. Rita could only watch Bianca silently from the side until finally relaying Dr. Mei's message.

"By the way, Bianca, regarding your future work arrangements, Dr. Mei hopes you can be transferred to headquarters to participate in the [Stigmata Project] research."

"The Stigmata, the plan?"

......

The sudden emergence of the new term "Stigmata Project" temporarily interrupted the debate in the comments about Otto's previous actions, and everyone's attention was shifted to this newly appeared term.

After all, on the internet, no matter how fierce the debate is, as long as it doesn't involve the netizens' vital interests, their enthusiasm will only last for three minutes, and their attention will be very easily diverted.

Of course, if such a catastrophe as Honkai were to actually occur in reality, then the situation would be hard to say.

"The Stigmata Project, it must be about researching Stigmata, right? Didn't Sakura mention in 'Angel Reconstruction' that the little girl named Hill possessed the power of Stigmata?"

"It's Seele, not Hill. (laughs)"

"That's about enough, don't worry about the details."

"I remember that the Valkyrie of Destiny also had Stigmata, so it seems that the technology of Stigmata was passed down and was stolen by the Destiny tomb raiders?"

"What the hell is tomb raiding? That's called archaeology! Don't you understand?"

"Putting aside archaeology and tomb raiding, is the Stigmata technology that Schicksal has mastered really that advanced? I always feel that the Valkyrie's Stigmata is quite different from that Seele's!"

"It's obvious you watched the video using Crimson King. The technology for creating real Stigmata has never been passed down. Valkyrie uses artificial Stigmata that Schicksal replicated based on data. Not only is the effect poor, but the side effects are also significant!"

"Based on the information here, the real Stigmata must have been invented by this Dr. Mei? I think this name appeared in 'Angel Reconstruction' before? This person seems to be very powerful!"

"Unfortunately, the uploader has only mentioned Dr. Mei through other people's words so far, and has never shown Dr. Mei's face! I'm a little curious about what this great scientist looks like?"

"Curiosity plus one!"

"Curiosity plus two!"

"..."

"Curiosity plus 10086!"

Compared to these silly netizens who could easily veer off-topic from the Stigmata Project to Dr. Mei's appearance, Jackal in his office was indeed staring intently at the screen, afraid of missing any detail in the upcoming video.

The Stigmata Project—isn't that the ultimate goal of their World Serpent?

Unfortunately, although Jackal was the chief scientist of the World Serpent, he also took on a lot of scientific research assigned by the organization, which was said to be in preparation for the Stigmata Project.

However, Jackal was unaware of the true nature of the Stigmata Project.

Or rather, among all the World Serpents, apart from Kevin and the Gray Serpents who have been with the organization since its inception, none of the other executives are aware of the full details of the Stigmata Project.

Each person is responsible for a portion of the content, but no one knows the entire content.

As a scientist, Jackal naturally has a strong thirst for knowledge, and she also wants to know the full details of the Stigmata Project.

It wasn't that I had any ill intentions towards the World Serpent; it was simply out of my own curiosity.

Unfortunately, Lord Kevin had been trapped in the Sea of ​​Quanta for a long time and hadn't been able to escape even after Jackal's arrival. Moreover, even if Kevin had come out, Jackal felt he probably wouldn't have the courage to ask him about the full details of the Stigmata Project.

Otherwise, what if they're mistaken for rebels and get hacked to smithereens by Tianhuo?

As for Gray Snake, that old thing who has lived for who knows how long, Jackal didn't think he could get any useful information out of him.

Jackal had already suppressed his curiosity, but now that there was information about the Stigmata Project, how could he not be excited?

Jackal stared intently at the screen, wanting to see the footage of Bianca being transferred to headquarters to participate in Project Stigmata, hoping to deduce any clues related to Project Stigmata from it.

However, the jackal was inevitably disappointed.

Because after Rita finished speaking, the scene suddenly changed, no longer showing Durandal's experience in the illusion, and returned to Su's perspective.

Jackal: ? ? ?

I've already taken my pants off, and this is what you show me?

Jackal finally couldn't hold back and punched the screen in front of him right through it!

Then, after calmly instructing his men to change the screen, Jackal turned on another computer in the office and continued watching Su Yu's videos.

As the chairperson of Shencheng Pharmaceuticals, it's perfectly reasonable for her to have several computers in her office, right?

In the video, the scene shifts, no longer showing the illusion experienced by Durandal, but instead showing Su's own real memories.

Clearly, Su herself could no longer remain absolutely calm when recalling this memory.

“Miss Bianca, this is the final trial. The whole truth of the Stigmata Project is hidden within it, and it all started from that day!”

And that so-called "that day" is the final moment of the previous civilization, the time when the Herrscher of the End descends!

Chapter Sixty-Two: The True Face of the End, Shocking Everyone!

The previous civilization was very strong, extremely strong!

Although the previous civilization suffered heavy losses under the Herrscher's continuous attacks, leaving only the three bases of the Firemoth, that was only because destruction was far easier than protection.

In the Land of the Past, Kevin's memory once said that defeating the Herrscher was not a difficult task for Yingjie.

Therefore, in terms of combat power alone, most of the Thirteen Heroes of the Flame Chaser are no weaker than Herrschers, and may even be far stronger than ordinary Herrschers, except for a certain cat.

If that's the case, then why did the previous civilization perish?

There is only one answer: the final apostle of Honkai, the Herrscher of the End!

Dr. Mei foresaw the arrival of the Herrscher of the End long ago. To this end, she led the remnants of the Flame Chaser to make full preparations, designing and completing the Moon Throne, building the Soul Steel Ruins on the moon, and so on.

Of course, just in case, the naturally cautious Mei also prepared for the possibility that they might not be able to defeat the Herrscher of the End, and formulated a series of backup plans, including the Ark Project, the Fire Seed Project, the Thousand Sands Project, and the Stigmata Project.

The purpose is that if they fail, they can leave behind the possibility and hope for those who come after them to defeat the Honkai!

With all preparations complete, the final moment finally arrived. The Firemoth detected an unprecedentedly massive Honkai energy reaction on the moon; the Herrscher of the End had descended!

The immense Honkai energy affected the observation satellites of the Firemoth, so they could only know that the Herrscher of the End was on the moon, but could not observe the specific features of the moon.

After some deliberation, Dr. Mei decided that instead of waiting to be killed, it would be better to take the initiative and set up the battlefield on the moon.

Therefore, of the remaining nine heroes of the Fire Moth, except for Su, who remained on the ground to command due to his special mental perception ability, the other eight fusion warriors all boarded the spaceship to the moon.

Originally, when Su Yu was reading the "Inheritance" comic before his transmigration, apart from Kevin, a familiar face that everyone already knew, miHoYo didn't reveal any of the other information about Ying Jie, replacing them all with black shadows.

Su Yu was much more considerate. Anyway, it will appear when the Past Paradise and Eternal Paradise are updated later, so why hide it?

It's better to release it sooner, so as to create some anticipation for future updates to the Paradise series.

So when the heroes boarded the spaceship, Su Yu took a close-up shot of these scenes, adding their respective engraved names next to them.

[Salvation] Kevin, [Gold] Eden, [Spiral] Velvi, [Annihilation] Thousand Calamities, [Soaring Light] Kosmo, [Infinite] Mebius, [Floating Life] Hua, and [Empty Dream] Paddo Phyllis.

Of course, the only two Yingjie still alive at this time were [Tianhui] Su and [Fanxing] Gretchen.

However, one of them was on the ground responsible for remote support and command, while the other had already boarded the spaceship carrying out Project Ark and flown into distant space!

The sudden revelation of so many heroes' true faces caused an explosion of comments from fans.

"Holy crap, the uploader didn't hold back this time, but released so many heroes' true forms all at once? I love it, I'm going to be the uploader's biggest fan from now on!"

"Indeed, there's no riddle solver!!! Someone slap me, I suspect I might still be dreaming."

"Slap! Slap! Slap! Is that enough? If not, I can give you three more slaps! Don't hold back!"

"..."

"Wait a minute, isn't this Qianjie one of those characters in the short video the uploader posted before? If he's also a Hero, then how come Alicia was able to suppress him without taking any damage the whole time? Why isn't Alicia on the list of Heroes?"

"...This should be the list of heroes who survived to this point, right? Is it possible that Alicia sacrificed herself before?"

"Indeed, just like Sakura, he sacrificed himself in the fight against a certain Herrscher!"
