Honkai: It’s broken, I have become the Herrscher of Corrosion?

Autumn 2015

"Reporting to the headquarters, three hours ago, the Yunpeng team that was managing the corpse of the Judgment-level Honkai Beast [Chiyou] lost contact. In addition, the corpse of Chiyou, which was originally sleeping on the bottom of the East China Sea, also disappeared out of thin air along with the disappearance of the team."

"I will report to the bishop immediately. Please continue your investigation."

In the headquarters of Tianming, since Otto, Yulandel and Rita were all in London, facing such a strange situation, Amber thought about it and called Cheng Lixue.

Mariana Trench, Abyss City.

"Sorry, I still have reservations about conducting experiments directly on the Eye of the Abyss."

In the laboratory, Einstein looked at Walter Young, whose face was ashen, and wanted to make a final effort.

"We have discussed this matter many times and have made many preparations. Why are you afraid when it comes to the experiment, Ain?"

"Alliance leader, I am not questioning the probability of success. I am just afraid of the dimension that Otto calls the Quantum Ocean. Apart from knowing that the Eye of the Abyss leads there, we know nothing about its strange nature."

Old Yang sighed, and his tone became more determined:

"It is precisely because we don't know that we need experiments even more. Being timid is not a virtue that scientists should have."

Einstein raised his voice slightly:

"But it's not right to rush into it. Skipping further surveys and going straight to experiments, I'm sorry to say, leader, you're too impatient."

A look of disappointment flashed across Lao Yang's face:

"Impatient? Yes, from the disaster in 2000 to now, we have been looking for a way to permanently end the Honkai. Anyone who has experienced that catastrophe has reason to be afraid of the future."

"The second collapse destroyed Siberia, and the third collapse destroyed India and Northern Europe. Perhaps in the next moment, the newly born Herrscher will bring irreparable damage to human civilization in other regions."

"But fortunately, we found this city. The Eye of the Abyss provided another possibility for our plan... Ending the Collapse, isn't this the dream you and he have had for a long time?"

After a brief silence, Einstein nodded.

"Let's get started... Record number: ABS-, Experiment content: Activate Moonlight Throne β, project energy to the center of the Eye of the Abyss, and test spatial feedback. Release the Honkai Beast test subject and prepare to start the engine for transformation."

"…The experimental subject has been suppressed, and the transformation countdown has begun. 5, 4, 3…" Wait, the reading of the space-time curvature shows an abnormality! "

A whisper sounded in their ears, as if a shadow passed over everyone's head.

"Something... is about to come out of the Eye of the Abyss. Aiyin, stop projecting energy!"

"The engine has been shut down. The distortion of space is almost visible to the naked eye. All units, please be careful and do not approach the Eye of the Abyss!"

Seeing the space disturbance getting bigger and bigger, Lao Yang decisively jumped deep into the location of the Eye of the Abyss, and finally neutralized the space distortion by manipulating gravity. Lao Yang and Einstein were sucked into a time gap in the quantum sea.

After an unknown amount of time, Lao Yang looked around and saw a large number of huge rock plates floating in the air.

Just as he was thinking about how to return to Haiyuan City, a shadow crawled out of the sea and a snake-like monster appeared in front of him.

However, to his surprise, the snake-like monster not only did not attack him, but instead spoke in human language and talked to him about the plan of the World Serpent.

"...So this is your plan. You want to end the Houkai in this way... and bring permanent liberation to mankind? No, I don't agree. I will never agree with such a plan. This is not salvation at all!"

"But, Mr. Walter, how can you guarantee that your plan will succeed?"

Just when the two sides were on the verge of a fight, a portal opened beside them, and Inoshia and Silin walked out.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xilin, in teleporting accurately in the quantum sea that does not follow the rules."

Enosiya raised her hand and wiped the sweat off Xilin's forehead, then looked at the [monster].

"Okay Kevin, no one here will be scared by the incarnation of the end-level Houkai beast Kukulkan, so just use human form and have a good chat with us."

Under Lao Yang's shocked gaze, the snake-like monster kept shrinking, and finally standing in front of him was a frosty-faced white-haired man.

Seeing Enosiya's appearance, Kevin, whose heart had long been as hard as ice, felt a little softened.

"Kevin, seeing my appearance, I think you have already guessed it in your mind. Please allow me to introduce myself first. I am Enosia, the Herrscher of Corrosion of this era, and she is Sirin, the Herrscher of Void of this era. The one who just argued with you is Walter Yang, the Herrscher of Reason of this era."

"The three of us can stand here and talk to you in this way. I think you should understand that Alicia succeeded."

Kevin remained silent, but the changes in expression on his face in the past few minutes were probably more than the previous 1500 times combined.

"Kevin, let me make it clear first. I am not against the Stigmata Project. Rather, since I can switch between the physical world and the digital world at will, I have no reason to oppose the Stigmata Project. The Stigmata space is essentially a data space. For me, traveling between the data space and the real space is as easy as breathing."

Ainoshia then looked at Old Yang, who looked unhappy:

"Mr. Walter, I admire your courage and determination, but I must point out a basic fact: if this man named Kevin is determined to leave the Quantum Sea, even if the three of us go together, we won't be able to stop him."

"Do you still remember the Ice Herrer we killed together 15 years ago? Before it died, I read its memory. Four thousand years ago, when it met Kevin, it couldn't even withstand a single blow. Its incredible recovery ability is meaningless except for turning an immediate execution into a slow death."

"Of course, I know this won't change your resolve. If you were afraid of a powerful enemy, Anti-Entropy wouldn't have come this far.

"However, since no one can convince the other, and Anti-Entropy and World Serpent cannot mobilize any resources from the other, why don't they just do their own thing instead of fighting among themselves?"

"But... once his plan is implemented..."

"Then Mr. Walter, are you sure that the Anti-Entropy plan will be 9% successful? Obviously not, because until now when nine Herrschers have appeared, Anti-Entropy is still in the trial and error stage, and even the final plan has not been finalized! And the Stigmata Plan, how to do it and what the final goal is, has been confirmed 5 years ago."

"I know that you don't want the fate of all mankind to be handed over to the World Serpent. But the premise for you to be qualified to deny the Stigma Project is that you have the ability to fly higher."
