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

In 2015, after Kevin came out of the Quantum Sea, the World Serpent Headquarters.

"It's really rare that you would show an expression like that."

The gray snake's eyes swept across Enosia's face.

"World Snake finally has the opportunity to do something for me, so just be happy."

The gray snake motioned for Enosia to continue.

"I want to find...or rather save someone. If the World Serpent takes action, it can greatly increase the chances of success."

"Oh, that's interesting. Someone who even Herrscher of Corrosion and Herrscher of the Void have trouble finding? Do you know where he is?"

"The Quantum Sea."

Gray Snake was silent for a few seconds before speaking again:

"Quantum Sea...Are you sure there's a chance that the person you're looking for is still alive?"

"The possibility of her surviving in the quantum ocean is close to 100%."

"Oh, that's even more interesting. I need more detailed information."

The corners of Enosiya's mouth rose slightly. She knew that since the gray snakes were interested, it meant that they were willing to help.

"Her name is Silfraie, and she was born in Estonia on October 2000, 10."

"After the second collapse, many European countries were indirectly affected, causing military turmoil. Seele lost her parents in the political turmoil and became an orphan."

"But fortunately, she was adopted by Cocolia of Anti-Entropy and entered her orphanage."

"Cocolia... I have had some contact with her. She is an interesting woman. She has obvious weaknesses, but she acts without regard for the consequences."

Gray Snake said meaningfully.

"I have the same opinion as you on this point. I wonder if she ever thought about the possibility that someone would threaten her with the children in the orphanage when she was causing trouble, or even hurt the children in the orphanage if they couldn't beat her, in order to disgust and provoke her. After all, humans have extremely high limits in many ways."

""Hmm... I think I'm off topic. Anyway, Sylphle spent a pretty good childhood in the orphanage in Cocolia, compared to other orphans. Until 2014, Cocolia conducted the X-10 experiment at the base in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, and Sylphle, as a stigma awakener, naturally became the best candidate. "

Upon hearing about the Stigma Awakener, Gray Snake showed significantly greater interest.

"In the end, the X-10 experiment failed... or to be more precise, it was not completely successful. Seele was unable to fully grasp the power of the stigmata and was destroyed the moment she broke through the subatomic level, and her form of existence transitioned to a quantum state."

"But unlike the others, she can travel freely in the Quantum Ocean with her body. Although she gets lost due to the special environment of the Quantum Ocean, even the Herrscher and Fusion Warriors do not have such ability. If Kevin had such ability, he might have been able to come out 1500 years ago."

"So, after you take this special being out of the Quantum Sea, what are you going to do with her?"

Enosia smiled:

"My words above are mainly to introduce her uniqueness to you and stimulate the audience's interest in listening. To me, all of the above is unimportant. What is important is that I can use her to establish a good relationship with Bronya Zaychek... Oh, yes, Bronya is also a member of the Cocolia Orphanage. Misterine should have told you this name."

Gray Snake nodded:

"I have some impression, but what makes you so sure..."

"The relationship between the two of them is far more than friendship. Gray Snake, I think you should not be interested in gossip between girls."

"…Since this is a deal, what kind of compensation do you want?"

Enosia blinked:

"How about giving World Snake a 100 billion subsidy? After you bring Xier out of the Quantum Sea safely, the account actually controlled by World Snake will increase by a total of billion US dollars."

"Oh, don't worry. In order to prevent inflation from causing a decrease in purchasing power or even an economic crisis, the money in the World Snake account will increase, which means that the numbers in other people's accounts will decrease."

“…The transaction is concluded.”

October 2015, 10, Quantum Ocean.

Xier drifted aimlessly in the quantum sea as usual. Looking ahead, the space that did not obey the laws of reality extended infinitely forward, and in some corners, the shadow of quantum appeared from time to time.

“Hey…ha!”

Xier held the sickle in both hands and swung it forward unsteadily. Although it looked like she couldn't even hold the sickle steadily, the damage she dealt was considerable. With just one strike, she destroyed the Quantum Shadow that rushed in front of her.

[Idiot, watch out. ]

Xier, who had just breathed a sigh of relief after destroying the quantum shadow in front of her, received a warning from her mind. She immediately took action, and before the quantum behind her pierced her, her body turned into countless blue butterflies and dissipated.

A few seconds later, blue butterflies gathered on the side of the Quantum Shadow. Xier stabbed its head with a knife, and then it became motionless.

[Well, now it's all solved. Although I'm still a cowardly fool, I've definitely improved since I first entered this hellhole.]

Xier smiled from the bottom of her heart:

"Thank you, my other self. If you hadn't been by my side all the time, I would probably still be hiding in a corner, not daring to move."

"I just don't know how much time has passed outside. How is Sister Bronya doing..."

[Alas, instead of worrying about others, you should worry more about yourself. Your sister Bronya is now in the Eigenworld. Maybe she can eat with her "new good friends" every day, read books, play games, and live a good life. Unlike us, we don't even know when we can leave this damn place, and we don't even know where we will be the next moment. ]

"Yes, you are right. Sister Bronya might be doing well now. I need to continue to work hard to hold on until I can leave here. Only when I leave here safely can Sister Bronya worry less."

[Actually, my point is... Never mind. You are the only one who would think in such a naive way. Looking at the direction we are heading now, we might be sucked into some vortex in the next moment...]

Xi'er's inner personality regretted having said such a bad thing, because what appeared in Xi'er's sight at that moment was a huge vortex. Many irregular objects around entered its range, were quickly sucked to the center by the centripetal force, and then torn into pieces.

"what is that……"

Seeing this scene, Xier subconsciously gripped the sickle tightly and showed a frightened expression.

[I don't know either, but according to my guess, this thing is like a crack in the quantum sea. If you are lucky, you may be teleported to a world bubble or another area. If you are unlucky... I am afraid that before being teleported, your body will be torn into pieces like the thing just now. In short, try to avoid it as much as possible.]

However, on the outside of the vortex, a very strong energy erupted, and a pair of light blue hands stretched out from the quantum sea.

Finally, what appeared in front of Xier was a monster named Tlaloc, which had only the upper body, clearly visible ribs, and whose appearance had a lot of room for improvement.

It crossed its hands and smashed them downwards. The entire sea area shook, generating a huge shock wave that directly blew Xier away.

[Idiot, get out of the way! ]

Xier dodged Tlaloc's sweeping arm, but she soon discovered that a suction force was slowly sucking her toward the center of the vortex.

Xier was in a very awkward position: if she wanted to escape the attraction of the whirlpool, she had to rush out with all her strength, but this would inevitably put her in Tlaloc's attack range. Xier didn't think she was a match for the giant in front of her.

But standing still is not an option. In order to resist the suction of the vortex, Xier's physical strength is constantly decreasing. The final result will only be falling into the center of the vortex.

At such an urgent moment, Xier took countless deep breaths before finally making up her mind.

"Another me, I think there is only one way now."

【? 】

"I know that I cannot bring out the full power of this body, so... I decided to give you full control of the body."

[Are you sure? If you do this, you will enter a deep sleep and won't know what's happening outside.]

"I understand."

[In this way, if I want, I can occupy this body forever and make you never wake up. ]

"You won't do that. I believe you."

[But even if I were to control this body, I might not be able to escape from that ugly monster.]

"It doesn't matter. Just try your best. You're better than me, so your chances of success are definitely much higher than mine."

【………】

"So... please, other me!"

[Yes, yes, there is nothing I can do about you. ]

Xi'er's originally azure eyes instantly turned red, and she jumped forward, jumping out of the vortex's attraction range, and then unsurprisingly attracted the attention of Tlaloc. It opened its mouth, facing Xi'er, and a purple beam of light gushed out.

Xier immediately sped up, and instead of moving away, she rushed towards Tlaloc's body, with the purple beam of light following closely behind her.

Seeing that the distance was close, Xier leaped and jumped onto Tlaloc's arm, thus entering its blind spot.

Seeing that Tlaloc had stopped attacking, Xier immediately launched a counterattack. She walked up Tlaloc's arm while dragging the sickle, leaving a deep red scratch on its arm.

"It can cause damage, but it's not very effective... It seems that I am not as strong as she thought. I still disappointed her."

Seeing that Tlaloc didn't react at all to the wound on his arm, Xier knew that it was probably just a minor injury.

"At least, make sure she leaves here."

Xier walked to Tlaloc's shoulder and jumped back. Since she couldn't beat him, she was ready to run.

"If it uses the same trick as before, I might be able to use its power to push myself away..."

As if aware of Xi'er's departure, Tlaloc immediately turned around, but failed to release shock waves in all directions as she wished. It opened its hands, and five black energy balls appeared around it, quickly surrounding her.

"Tsk, this is troublesome."

Seeing the five energy balls connected to each other, it was obvious that they were preparing to trap her. Xier began to accumulate strength, preparing to concentrate and break through with all her strength.

"Although I don't know what will happen if I cut this thing open, I don't think there is any other way now..."

At this moment, a dark [hole] suddenly appeared behind Tlaloc, and dozens of narrow [thorns] flew out and smashed its ribs.

As its huge body fell, the energy ball around Xi'er also disappeared. A girl with purple hair and yellow eyes walked out of the cave, looking a little annoyed.

"What's happening here?"

Although Xier was able to move freely, her eyes were still fixed on Tlaloc, because she knew that the battle was not over yet.

Just as she expected, Tlaloc was still able to fight. It raised its head and fired the same beam of light as before at the purple-haired girl in the air.

But the purple-haired girl was not panicked at all. She raised her right hand and snapped her fingers. A hole appeared in front of her and behind Tlaloc at the same time. The beam fell into the hole in front and shot out from the hole behind. Tlaloc's full-strength attack successfully blasted himself into pieces.

"So that thing is something like a portal...what the hell!?"

After Tlaloc fell, a transparent rope stretched out from the original portal and was tied precisely around Xier's waist. Then it was pulled hard, and before Xier could react, she was pulled in.

5 minutes later, World Serpent Headquarters.

Xilin looked at Xier, who was breathing evenly, and the stone in her chest finally fell to the ground. Because the spatial distribution of the quantum sea is different from that of the intrinsic world, when Xilin opened the portal according to her usual thinking, the position was likely to have a huge error, and she didn't know where the person was teleported to. Therefore, after the world snake found Xier's location, Enosiya asked Misterin to help.

Misterlin's main job is to ensure the stability of the Eigenworld and the Quantum Sea channel, and to assist Xilin in adjusting the error. With her help, Xilin was able to successfully complete the mission.

"Strange, she obviously didn't suffer any serious injuries, why did she faint?"

After examining Xier, Jackal looked at the data on the instrument, his heart full of doubts.

"Alright, since she's fine, I won't give you a penny less than what we agreed on. Don't think I don't know that you wanted to use this special person for human experiments from the beginning."

The jackal immediately and obediently retreated from the room.

Ainoshia looked at Xier, and a playful smile gradually appeared on her face.

"Xilin, bring Xi'er home. It's a good opportunity for Alexandra to meet her."
