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

After a long while, their lips parted. Bronya subconsciously turned her face away, and Seele's face was as red as a ripe apple.

"It seems that Sister Bronya has made great progress in many aspects in recent years..."

"Xi'er...I..."

"It's okay. I like Sister Bronya just the same."

Bronya turned her head back and looked at Seele's shy but happy expression. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and she gently embraced her in her arms.

"Xi'er, I'll come and accompany you when I'm done here."

"Well, I'm going to go find Lilia and Rosaria so I won't bother Sister Bronya anymore."

After Seele left, Bronya continued to check the defense system of Haiyuan City. After a short rest, she already had a better idea.

The defense system of Haiyuan City is currently like a house built with many different specifications, models, and quality building materials. After a period of time, the worst quality part has been damaged. Bronya's original idea was to remove the broken part and replace it with good materials.

But in this way, if the broken part is removed, the house that was barely built will inevitably collapse. Therefore, it is wisest to leave the existing part alone. After finding the BUG, ​​Bronya did not try to modify it, but added a new firewall in the problematic area.

This is equivalent to adding another layer to the outside of the house, so that the effect of preventing the house from collapsing can also be achieved.

"Dr. Einstein, the defense system of Haiyuan City has been inspected and any problems have been properly addressed."

"Bronya, you've worked hard. However, I'm afraid there is some bad news for you personally: the fleet of Destiny has retreated. In a sense, your hard work overtime just now was in vain."

Bronya was stunned, then shook her head:

"It doesn't matter. There are many problems with Haiyuan City's defense system. It's our luck that Tianming didn't seize this opportunity to attack. Solving the problem before the enemy attacks is the best outcome."

Of course, Bronya didn't actually have such a high level of awareness. No matter who it was, knowing that the things they worked so hard for were in vain, it was impossible not to have negative emotions. It was just that the joy of Bronya and Seele's reunion swept away the haze that had just arisen in her heart.

On the morning of March 3, Nienentropy, Theresa and others held another meeting in Haiyuan City. However, to the surprise of many people, Bronya, who was always punctual, was late. At 21 o'clock in the morning, when everyone else had arrived, she was still nowhere to be seen.

"Isn't Bronya overslept? Mother Cocolia, I'll go call her."

Rosalia was feeling bored when she came to the meeting room but was told that she had nothing to do there. But when she found out that Bronya was not there, she suddenly became interested.

Cocolia shook her head slightly and looked at Theresa and Einstein:

"Wait a little longer. If you don't come in 10 minutes, we'll start."

At 9:8, accompanied by a burst of anxious footsteps, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Bronya rushed in panting. Seele followed closely behind, looking a little reserved, and both of them had a blush of happiness on their faces.

Seeing this scene, the adults immediately understood what was going on. Although Theresa had not had such an experience, she remembered that when she was at St. Freya Academy, Kiana and Mei seemed to have encountered such a situation more than once.

"Ahem, take a seat. Now that everyone is here, let's get started."

Cocolia took the initiative to speak up and help her two daughters out of the situation.

Einstein looked around and spoke slowly:

"According to the news sent by Dr. Tesla, the special team of Destiny, the Undying Blade, had previously appeared in Sky City. The captain and vice-captain of the Undying Blade, the S-class Valkyrie Rita Rossweisse, and the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny, Yulandel, had also appeared in Sky City."

"what!"

Theresa stood up from her seat. As an S-class Valkyrie, she knew the abilities of these two. Even if Mei tried her best, she might not be a match for Yulandel.

"Ms. Theresa, don't worry. In Skydome City, Dr. Tesla sent two pieces of news, one good and one bad."

"The bad news is that their deal with the World Serpent was hindered by destiny, and until now, no trace of Kiana has been found."

"The good news is that Kiana did not fall into Otto's hands, and the Undying Blade's troops also evacuated the Destiny Headquarters yesterday. Dr. Tesla and Miss Raiden Mei are both fine."

"Whoo~"

Theresa let out a long sigh, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and sat back in her seat feeling relieved.

But Einstein's expression turned more serious:

"Whether it's Haiyuan City or Tianqiong City, the reason why the Destiny troops suddenly withdrew was because the Destiny headquarters was attacked. It was not until this morning that Anti-Entropy received the exact news. It was at the Destiny headquarters that a new Herrscher was born."

"From what we have learned so far, apart from the fact that Otto himself is missing and some facilities have been damaged, there is no news of any casualties, just a collective coma. This shows that this Herrscher is not a monster who only knows how to destroy. Rather than destroying him, there may be a possibility of negotiation. Before we get more information, I suggest not to make any big moves to avoid angering the Herrscher."

"In addition, according to the leader's opinion, we should take advantage of the opportunity when Tianming is too busy to open the Eye of the Abyss and further explore the Quantum Sea. Based on previous experience and lessons, we need someone who is familiar with the internal situation of the Quantum Sea, and someone who has both certain strength and the ability to analyze data."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Xier.

"Although it is a tragedy, in terms of the result, Xi'er is indeed the best person to enter the Quantum Ocean for exploration. Of course, it ultimately depends on your personal wishes."

"But...this..."

Cocolia immediately showed a worried look.

Seele stood up and held Bronya's hand:

"Sister Bronya, Mother Cocolia, don't worry about me. In fact, in the past two years, I have entered the Quantum Sea... um... no less than 10 times. Although I returned to the Eigenworld in less than an hour the first two times, Sister Ino said that this was to avoid trauma for me..."

"It's post-traumatic stress disorder, a mental illness. Ms. Enosia is worried that you may have encountered something in the Quantum Sea that frightened you so much that you subconsciously become alert and avoid others when they mention the Quantum Sea. You may even become so frightened that you completely lose your ability to live."

"Yes, that's what I mean... Anyway, I'm used to going to the Quantum Sea. I also have some understanding of my special system. Since I have expertise in this area and can help everyone, it's something worth being happy about for me."

Bronya placed her other hand on Seele's hand:

"Bronya respects Seele's decision, but... I want to be with Seele."

Xier's expression was worried at first, then relieved:

"...I understand. There are many places in the Quantum Ocean that are different from the Eigenworld. I will protect my sister."

Walter Yang pushed his eyes:

"Don't be so excited. Going to the Quantum Sea is very important. We will discuss it many times. Bronya, if you are really determined, please stay after the meeting is over."

World Serpent Headquarters.

"Aino, a new Herrscher has been born, but why do I feel like you're not in a hurry at all? From the perspective of power, her threat is only greater than that of the Herrscher of Ice. Now the Destiny Headquarters is in a mess. Are you really sure that group of rubbish can be her opponent?"

"Xilin, from the perspective of the power of the Herrscher, it is true. But her greatest strength is not the power of the Herrscher. Let her make a fuss. When she is done with Youlan Dell, she should come here. By then, Kevin will treat her well. We have more important things to do now."

"Our chances of success are too slim if we rely on ourselves. We have to find a way to get Raiden Mei over here."

"Then I'll just pull her over here?"

Seeing Xilin's serious look, Enosiya waved her hands quickly:

"No, no, no, this is kidnapping. I need her to come to the World Serpent [voluntarily]. It seems... I still have to put some effort into Kiana. But I don't want to watch the two of them perform the sinner's elegy on the rooftop of Qianyu Academy again..."

"The opening of the Eye of the Abyss... might be a good opportunity."

"By then, besides you, Mistellin may also be needed to help out a little."
