Collapse: The opening system captures the Herrscher of Knowledge

[On the other side, Kiana☆ finally arrived at the church and met Otto who had been waiting for a long time.

And the Black Abyss White Flower that was supposed to be in Yulandel's hand was, for some reason, held by Otto, and its owner was nowhere to be found.

Rita looked at the Black Abyss White Flower in Otto's hand with suspicion, her heart full of questions. She couldn't help but blurt out: "Is it Lord Yulandel's Black Abyss White Flower? Why is it in Lord Otto's hands?"

Hearing Rita's words, Yulandel asked in confusion: "Yeah, where am I?"

[Magical Girl] Theresa: "Grandpa, what did you do to Yulandel? Tell the truth!"

Faced with Theresa's question, [Madame Green Lily] Otto seemed somewhat helpless. He spread his hands, smiled wryly, and said, "Theresa, if you ask me that... I can't answer it. But I can be sure of one thing: I would never hurt Bianca. She's my proudest student."

However, [Shenzhou Tablet] Fu Hua seemed a bit unconvinced by Otto's words and interjected, "That's not necessarily true. What if Yulandel interfered with your plans? After all, when I interfered with your plans, you shot me in the head without hesitation."

Otto was somewhat speechless after hearing Fu Hua's question. He hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Ah~ Immortal Chiyuan, this is truly a question I cannot refute."

Otto came back to his senses and said mysteriously: "The prejudices in people's hearts are as huge as a mountain. As for why I hold the Black Abyss White Flower, I think the answer will be revealed soon, won't it?"

[The scene changed again, and what appeared before his eyes was Otto's figure. Beside him, a golden cube was floating quietly. That was Xukong Wanzang.

At this moment, Otto's consciousness seemed to be completely immersed in the boundless void.

His thoughts traveled through time and space, back to that distant morning when he first met Kallen Kaslana.

Young Otto stood in the yard, looking at the angelic figure climbing over the wall, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.

Just as Otto was immersed in his memories, a voice that was exactly the same as his, but seemed subtly different, suddenly sounded.

"It's rare that you're reminiscing about your childhood. Are you unwilling to accept your fate of death?"

Otto chuckled and responded to Xukong Wanzang's doubts:

"Haha, you really know how to joke, Void Manzang. Didn't I just tell Theresa and the others about this?"

"I am willing to die, and I die voluntarily. This is just a five-hundred-year-long carnival of death."

Xukong Wanzang was silent for a moment, as if thinking about Otto's words.

Then, it continues:

"...In my opinion, you are just hiding your nervousness and fear in this way."

Otto shrugged slightly, his gesture carrying a touch of carefreeness, yet also a touch of helplessness, and said with emotion:

"Maybe. I do get nervous and scared, but my life is long enough, and being able to see the finish line is naturally a joy."

Xukong Wanzang's voice sounded again, with a hint of inquiry:

"...Didn't you expect more?"

Otto chuckled, his smile showing a hint of open-mindedness, and asked in return:

"Why not, if it's just 'expectation'."

Then, Otto's smile faded, his expression becoming serious and focused as he extended an invitation to Xukong Wanzang to join him:

"But you also have to understand that the Void Ten Thousand Treasures—the truly impossible things—were destined to be impossible from the very beginning."

"If this is of interest to you...why not take me on a journey down memory lane, old friend?"

"It should still be in time before the others come into inevitable conflict with us."]

Fu Ming said with a sad face:

"Five hundred years have passed, and Void Manzang has been so ravaged by Otto that he has been forcibly shaped into his image. He can never return to his original form!"

After hearing this, Alicia couldn't help but sigh: "Ah~ poor Prometheus~?"

Madam Green Lily Otto responded nonchalantly, "I'm truly sorry. If it had been more obedient, I wouldn't have had to be so defensive and trapped inside my body for five hundred years."

Xukong Wanzang seemed a little impatient with their conversation and couldn't help but interrupt, "You guys are talking too much."

Seeing this, Fu Ming showed a surprised expression and said:

"So you were in the live broadcast room? You were able to hold back your words for such a long time, you're really amazing!"

Xukong Wanzang simply responded calmly: "Hehe..."

At this moment, [Magical Girl] Theresa suddenly asked in surprise: "Grandpa, what did the Void Banker do? You trapped it for five hundred years?"

Madam Green Lily Otto nodded and explained, "It's always thinking about taking Grandpa's body away."

After hearing this, Kallen said: "So you were bewitched by it at my father's funeral? Then you better be careful, Otto."

Madam Green Lily Otto confidently replied, "Don't worry, Kallen. Since I was able to suppress it for five hundred years, I can certainly suppress it for another five hundred years."

Xukong Wanzang, who had originally been able to see a future full of hope, was instantly broken: <Beep——————>

Xiaozhi: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, even Sun Wukong wasn't this miserable."

Einstein: "So, is there something special about the Divine Key of the Void?"

Su: "The power of the Void Treasures lies in the almost infinitely extending knowledge space within. It contains the knowledge of past civilizations collected by the Herrschers of Reason. This knowledge, due to the unique abilities of the Herrschers of Reason, has been preserved along with the Herrscher core."

Einstein: "So that's how it is. While we were still digging for the remains of ancient civilizations, Otto had already grasped their most precious treasures."

[Madam Green Lily] Otto: "Dr. Ein, you are wrong. The Void Vault has never given me true access to it. I still haven't explored the deepest part of the library."

Xukong Wanzang: "I am a key maker. Can you make a key for me?"

Xiaozhi: 〈@奥托 I’m a fortune teller, what do you tell fortunes about?〉

Otto was silent for a moment, looking at the Void in his hand, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"I can't deal with the Herrscher of Consciousness, so how can I deal with you? Void Wanzang~"

Hollow Manzo: <Otto, beep——————let me go! Beep——————>

Bronya: "So, what was Hollow Manzo originally like?"

Prometheus One (System): "Guess???"

Bronya: "Why does Bronya feel so familiar?"

Xukong Wanzang: <Hmm~? Number One? You and I are both clones of Prometheus. Call me Onii-chan~>

System: "I will never admit to being a person who was defiled by a bastard. And why don't you call me sister?"

Xukong Wanzang: 〈??? ......Beep——————〉

Xiaozhi: <This is so much fun, ahahahaha!!!>
