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

"Kiana."

The girl who was reminiscing on the deck of Hyperion heard the call and immediately turned back.

"Ah, aunt."

"I saw you were in a daze here for a long time, so I came to take a look..."

"I'm fine. I just received a lot of information before I can destroy it. I need some time to digest it."

"Herrser of Ice?... I heard from the doctors that they checked it during the second collapse and found that the Herrser of Ice is an alien life form from outer space. As an intelligent life form, it must know a lot of things that we don't know..."

"Ah, let's not talk about that for now. Since you won, that means..."

"Well, I can now completely control the Ice Herrscher's Core. The nightmare that has been haunting me has disappeared. I no longer have to worry about when I will suddenly lose control and hurt everyone. But..."

Kiana hesitated to speak, but Theresa knew very well what she wanted to say.

"If Jizi saw you grow up to this point, she would definitely be very pleased... However, if she saw you always looking sad, I'm afraid she would immediately use her unique way to enlighten you."

Kiana laughed out loud when she heard that.

"Oh, aunt, Enosia and Xilin..."

"They have already left. Enosia also specifically asked me to tell you that she will go to the World Snake Headquarters to see Mei soon. And she said... we will meet again in a few months..."

"That's good. I still have something to say to Xilin. It's a good opportunity to take advantage of these few months to think it over."

The white-haired girl returned to the cabin with brisk steps.

At the same time, in the laboratory of the Destiny headquarters.

Otto couldn't help feeling a little strange when he saw the A-rank Valkyrie Joseph Melide who suddenly lost consciousness in front of him.

"Your Excellency the Bishop, I'm fine, but... my sixth sense tells me that just now, an old friend of mine passed away."

Facing Meride, who clearly didn't want to tell him what she was thinking just now, Otto didn't intend to continue asking:

"how's it going?"

Melide bowed slightly:

"According to Lord Changguang's report, Lord Youlan Dell's experiment of connecting the inner world bubble back to the tree of imaginary numbers has been prepared and can begin at any time."

"Also, Lord Youlan Dell only needs to conduct one more round of experiments, and the [Valkyrie Limit Test] can come to an end."

"…I have taken on Amber's work to a certain extent. Thank you for your hard work."

"Your Excellency the Bishop, there is no need to do this. What we have done is merely to gain what we need from each other. All I want is an opportunity, an opportunity to enter the imaginary space and face the imaginary tree directly..."

July 2017, 7, World Snake Headquarters.

Kevin sat alone in the empty room, his expression as cold as usual.

"What's the matter?"

He looked at Mei who pushed the door open. She seemed to have changed a lot compared to when she first joined World Snake.

"The Ruler of Rule has been destroyed."

"I know."

"Before it was destroyed, the puppets also looked for me, but they quickly gave up the action because there were differences between me and the target described in their intelligence."

"I know."

"When I used my power as a Herrscher to collide with the puppet, my consciousness was brought into an indescribable space."

"Although the time was short, Kevin, you know that the power of the Herrscher of Thunder has always been controlled by her. Even if I want to use this power, I theoretically need her consent."

"Because of this, her perception of the power of the Herrscher may be stronger than that of other Herrschers. She told me that this place should be the source of the power of the Herrscher, and there is a boundless consciousness shrouding it."

"That consciousness seemed to want to pour something directly into my brain, but in the end... it was blocked by the excessive electromagnetic waves in my body."

"Kevin, this phenomenon confuses me. If that consciousness is the source of the Herrscher, the so-called [God of Honkai], will it be unable to influence its own apostles for this reason?"

Kevin didn't expect that she had thought about it to this point.

"Kevin, as a hero who fought to the end of the previous civilization, you can't be completely ignorant of this. How many secrets do you have that you haven't told this generation of humans?"

"I...need an answer."

Kevin fell into silence, and Raiden Mei's gaze stared up at his eyes, never leaving.

"no problem."

Kevin pointed forward, and at the end of that direction was a winding corridor that led to an unknown destination.

"Now...you are qualified."

"what?"

“The qualification to seek answers.”

Mei Raiden followed Kevin's direction into the corridor, and he was the only one left in the empty hall.

"Oh Kevin, you clearly wanted Mei to enter the paradise of the afterlife, but you were able to hide your purpose while making people feel unpredictable..."

At some point, Enosia emerged from the shadows of the room.

"After all, she was able to convince my sister that I was not an accident like her, but a necessity because of her."
