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

When Bronya was about to activate the star gate, Sirin and Enosia, who had just finished touring around New Atla, also arrived late, followed by Bella and Reina.

"The transformation from a Ruler of Reason to a Ruler of Truth, well... the preparations are halfway done.

"The Herr of Truth, could it be that Bronya was the Herr of False Truth before?"

Bronya: (? ? ?)

In addition...

Enosia shifted her gaze from Bronya to Kiana and Mei:

"Parents, please take good care of your children..."

"Ahem, Enosia, let's get down to business first. What have you found?"

"...I have already contacted many of my avatars on Earth. Now more than half of the world's population has fallen into a deep sleep. Due to the invasion of the imaginary space, a large number of imaginary creations have appeared in Changkong City, Taixu Mountain and other places. Rita, Cheng Lixue and others are communicating with the anti-entropy doctor while organizing people to clean up."

"No matter what, everyone has to return to Earth first, right?"

After everyone stood in place, Bronya activated the power of the Herrscher of Reason.

"...Einstein Space Bridge, perception confirmed. Gravity anomaly detected, injection of exotic matter started. Three...two...one...Stargate core components repaired, ready to start!"

In the blink of an eye, everyone disappeared from the spot.

"This is... Haiyuan City?!"

"...I see. Haiyuan City is the remains of the former civilization and technological center of Mu Continent. It makes sense that the "Star Gate" would send us here."

Fu Hua looked at the Haiyuan City in front of her, feeling quite emotional:

"'New Atla'... That's exactly what it means. This place once belonged to a city called 'Atla'. I guess it's for this reason that the other side of the moon connected by the 'Star Gate' is called 'New Atla'."

"…But this is the deepest part of the Mariana Trench. If we plan to go to other places on Earth, we have to be more careful."

Xilin closed her eyes lightly and then shook her head.

"The situation is slightly better than on the moon, but the dimension is also in a mess due to the Stigmata Project, just like on the moon, so it is difficult for the Herrscher of the Void to exert his power."

"In the past, this place was directly connected to the Quantum Sea, and the environment was also greatly affected by the Quantum Sea. But now..."

Bronya's gaze stopped on Seele.

"...Hmm. Right now, we can hardly feel the extra power from the Quantum Ocean. This was not the case when Anti-Entropy just closed the Eye of the Abyss."

【Kiana】:

"Sure enough. It seems that the Stigmata Plan has still affected this place... It's just that the power of the Quantum Sea is balancing this influence, so Haiyuan City can still maintain its status quo like this."

[Bu Yi]:

"That is to say, if there is no intervention, as time goes by, this Haiyuan City will eventually be included in the Stigmata Plan."

【Fu Hua】：

"...According to the information we have obtained before, the Stigmata Project is indeed trying to rewrite the entire earth into a dream in a certain sense. Although we still have no way of knowing the specific meaning of this statement."

[Bronya]:

"Let's first thoroughly investigate this Haiyuan City. Whether it's something that remains the same as in the past or something that has changed, it will be a valuable experience to help us understand this world again."

【Fu Hua】：

"We can say there are 11 of us. After we go up from here, should we split up and investigate to find out the various conditions in the entire area?"

[Bronya]:

"Well, this is certainly more efficient. And the area of ​​this 'Haiyuan City' is not very large, so if we encounter any problems, it will be more convenient for everyone to support each other.

Then...how about the division of the team consisting of Kiana and Mei, Reina, the squad leader and the Herrscher of Knowledge, Seele and Bronya, and Enoscia, Sirin, and Bella?"

Kiana's team can find a way to contact the outside world; the squad leader's team may be able to monitor the impact of the Stigmata Project on ordinary humans and the world; Seele and Bronya are more familiar with the former Haiyuan City and are suitable for looking for various resources that Anti-Entropy once left here; and Enosia's team..."

"We can start investigating the nature of the nearby space and find a way to [enter] the dream world."

"Indeed, this division of labor is more reasonable. Since Enosia chose to follow us to Earth, she must be willing to help."

"To be precise, there is still one step left, but... if we can find a way to [contact] dreams before then, it's not impossible."

"Then, shall we split up and start our actions now?"

"Wait a minute, the Herrscher of Knowledge said that although this place is already more than 6,000 meters under the sea, she still hopes to find a relatively high position so as to identify more clues."

"Sister Bronya, if we want to look for supplies, should we first go to the place where Hyperion stopped before?"

"Okay. If Bronya remembers correctly... at that time, in order to conduct experiments to transfer Houkai energy to the Quantum Sea, Professor Einstein and his team stored various tools there.

However, although Haiyuan City seems relatively safe at first glance... we still can't let our guard down. After all, the World Serpent also caused a big commotion here in the past."

"Yes. When we need to communicate, we can use the consciousness network that the Herrscher of Knowledge has built before. Squad leader, what's wrong?"

"Ah, nothing, it's just that the Herrscher of Knowledge said..."

"Alright, alright! You old antique, you don't have to tell them everything, right? Ahem. Anyway, you have to remember that all of this, in the final analysis, comes from the benefits brought to you by the great Lady Herrscher of Knowledge. I am not seeking fame or profit - but you have to remember that the benefits I give you are what others cannot give you even if they want to. Do you understand?"

"Pfft... Yeah. Thank you, Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge."
