Capítulo 113: Chapter 113: The Aeon Attracted by a Paper Contract

Su is a psychic-type MANTIS. The moment he met the opponent, they basically entered Su's combat range.

However, any attack will inevitably leave traces. As long as you find a method and understand the principle, then mental attacks can easily be blocked.

Back then, after the birth of the Eighth Herrscher of the previous era, Fire Moth developed drugs specifically targeting meme information.

In terms of the drug's effectiveness, countering specific memes is certainly feasible, and even fewer problems arise when dealing with Herrschers that has ability over consciousness!

But what about dealing with Su?

Bronie raised this question in the Elysian Realm, and she posed it to Su.

Considering that his external version of himself will interact with Bronie, a fight would inevitably ensue then.

How could he bear to see Bronie get hurt?

So he said that drugs against mental attacks were outdated, and she should go to Vill-V and ask for a Mental Standoff Shield.

When some MANTIS Soldiers went out of control back then, they always used it.

So when the real Su saw Bronie, she activated this shield directly, causing almost all of Su's power to fail.

"What you said... about finding a solution to the Honkai, what is it exactly?"

Su saw the familiar shield and immediately understood that Bronie might have obtained something.

Perhaps she got the approval of all the Flamechasers inside the Elysian Realm guarded by Kevin.

Since even the memory of himself approved of Bronie, there was no need for him to have more great hostility.

It's just that the Project Velaka has been going on for so long, and no means to counter the Honkai has been found, so how did Bronie find it?

"Above the endpoint of the imaginary tree that connects our world, there is an object called the Cocoon of Finality, and the Cocoon of Finality is the source of all Honkai. The power of the Herrschers is just its shadow, which is actually reflected in Project Stigma. Do you know?"

"No, I only know the final result of Project Stigma, not the specific details."

"In fact, the Project Stigma is to use the power of Finality. Using the Project Stigma as a primer, without affecting human civilization, borrow the Cosmic Juggernaut to find the location of the Cocoon of Finality. I think this is possible."

"And then? This is a high-dimensional existence, if you want to destroy or take over it, wouldn't it require extraordinary means?"

It seems that Honkai has become a concern of Mr. Su. Look at him now, still wide awake; he looks very serious.

Or is he afraid of her own power?

Or did he not anticipate her arrival?

"Elysia, no, after resurrecting Elysia, then using her power to create this era's Herrscher of Origin, this is my plan. There is still no candidate at the moment, but if there really is no one who can step forward, I can."

Then Su closed his eyes.

Many panels appeared beside him, with many images inside.

These are all images observed through the Cosmic Juggernaut.

The games...

Undertale, Spiritfarer, the children of the orphanage, and inside the Elysian Realm, Elysia opening of the Elysium Everlasting.

Of course, there are more important images.

In the amusement park of the Elysium Everlasting, at the highest point of the Ferris wheel, Elysia and little Bronie are holding hands together, looking at the distant starry sky.

"How did you... get these images!"

Bronie felt embarrassed.

These are scenes of her and Elysia being alone!

Su just smiled lightly.

"Alright, I believe what you said. Traveler from the sea of quanta, your existence is as incredible as Elysia's birth. I am willing to temporarily set aside my plan and accept treatment."

"Alright alright, since we've talked about it here, then let's leave together. Don't stay in this Bubble World anymore; it always feels so fragile here, it's nauseating to look at."

"Sorry for leaving you with a bad impression, but I think my Bubble World is quite beautiful."

Indeed, it's almost the same scenery as inside the Elysian Realm; there is hardly any change.

Anyone who comes into the Elysian Realm will probably suspect they have entered Paradise.

So Su has been looking at this scenery for fifty thousand years; won't he get tired of it?

Oh, right, Mr. Su usually observes other worlds, so he shouldn't get bored, right?

"Fragile, because it's fragile. I was born in a relatively fragile Bubble World, and even the Ether Anchor was stolen. But I don't know what the future will develop into. After all, in the Genius Society, someone with a lifespan of just over ten days instantly raised the level of their civilization by a large margin, so anything is possible, right?"

"Anything is possible, but I still haven't found a way to counter the Honkai."

Hearing such miraculous things, Su couldn't help but sigh; perhaps he is a bit useless.

Just seeing everything, but finding it difficult to find a way to counter the Honkai.

However, according to the information observed by the Cosmic Juggernaut, Su actually feels that he has the ability to guide Bianka to inherit his wishes, find a way to counter the Honkai, and completely stop Project Stigma.

Mr. Su still doesn't want to see Project Stigma succeed to this day. After all, redefining humanity and using such means to survive the Honkai, although not considered a loss, is definitely not a victory.

And all Su can do is give people a chance to resist.

And that's just a chance. Su can observe pure humans, and even the current civilization's strongest Valkyrie, Bianca.

But that's something for a long time later.

"You can't find a way to counter Honkai, and I can't find the ultimate answer of the universe. We're even. You're always squatting under this tree. Are your feet numb? Should I prepare a crutch for you?"

Mr. Su was shocked by Bronie's familiar and jumping thinking.

But are his legs numb?

It's a bit uncomfortable, especially since his body is already very bad. Su also knows that he can't last a few years.

So he answered, "Please, Miss Bronie."

"Miss Bronie... hehe, don't be so polite, call me Miss Bunny, or Bronie is fine too. After all, you also called me that inside the Elysian Realm; you must like this thing!"

Saying that, Bronie sent out a crutch, but the dark red color made Su feel a little strange.

Is it made of soulium? No, more importantly--

"Is this... Starry Harmony?"

"It's not genuine; this is a replica I made based on the drawings, but the core part is made based on my intuition. It consumes a lot of energy, but it's perfect as a defensive equipment for you, isn't it?"

"You've considered it very thoughtfully."

It doesn't matter if his body is bad; the power of Honkai inside can still be used.

It must be said that a weapon is still a good weapon. It's also very good as a crutch.

But it feels strange. After all, although Mr. Su's body is very bad, he looks very young.

Following Bronie out of the Bubble World, a hot breath hit them.

Su only then realized that he hadn't felt any other weather for a long time.

Coming up like this is extreme; it's really not suitable for health.

"Uh, speaking of which, 'Sister' Bronie, is this Mr. Overseer in front of us your friend?"

"Good morning, Mr. Otto, what wind blew you to the Sahara Desert? It's so lucky to encounter you in such a remote place."

Bronie directly played dumb.

Su still knows this Archbishop, who has controlled the resources of the entire world and relics of the previous era for five hundred years, constantly developing Schicksal.

This organization is the main force of the current civilization to counteract the Honkai, but Otto is not as proactive as imagined in dealing with the Honkai.

Just like when the Fire Moth had not conducted a major cleansing, the high-level also once wanted to use the Honkai to do some outrageous things.

But in the end, they were all backlashed by their own desires.

But Otto still has some skills.

"Lucky? I don't think this is lucky at all. In this game of seeking the truth, I was almost completely eliminated by you. It's just that you were too impatient and underestimated the efficiency of Schicksal. Honkai is happening all over the world. If we can't eliminate the Honkai efficiently, how can Schicksal keep the phenomenon of Honkai secret among the masses?"

At this moment, Otto's expression was like he ate Theresa's bitter-melon juice, looking at Bronie with some resentment.

There's nothing he can do. Bronie seems to know too much, while he knows almost nothing.

He felt like an idiot. Every time he interacts with Bronie, he feels proud of his little gain.

Little does he know that every time Bronie interacts with him, she takes away something important.

The changes in the Void Archives are enough to explain everything.

Otto realized that the information stored in his Void Archives, as well as the experimental logs he left behind, were all copied by Bronie!

Copying is not stealing. Bronie's hacking skills can completely erase traces, but in fact, Bronie still sent a recognizeable trace to the hands of the Void Archives.

At that time, Otto was also wondering how Void Archives changed its appearance and mood so much. It turns out that it was a trace left by Miss Bunny's hacking. He didn't notice it, so he happily watched the show, where he was the clown.

Very much in line with Bronie's fun personality.

After Otto cracked the so-called 'trace,' he found that there was still new information above.

It was a game, a pursuit of truth, seeking answers to whether the dead can really be resurrected. And whether data memories can truly become a continuation of life and serve as material for resurrection.

After deciphering this information and combining it with the strange gravitational wave anomalies, Otto hurried to the scene, waiting quietly for Bronie's return.

This is a trial!

A grand game carefully arranged by Bronie.

If one can't even qualify for the game, then they will be completely kicked out!

"Your efficiency... barely passed, right? So, let me introduce myself again. I am the Traveler from the Sea of Quanta and also a Hacker. Currently, I am inheriting the will of the Thirteen Flamechasers of the previous era, actively seeking means to resurrect them. Would you like to join this game? A game challenging the reality of the world."

With Schicksal's resources and my intelligence, showing off a bit of muscle, spinning Otto around, and then proving my position, perhaps in the future, I could naturally become the Archbishop of Schicksal!(Joke)

"How long have you been preparing this plan?"

"Um, probably about... three or four years? At least I haven't tarnished my golden reputation of never failing, although no one in this world knows about this golden reputation of mine..."

One could only say that the Anti Entropy side is really not doing well; the Easter eggs and this game's information buried in the Titanfall by herself seem to have not been deciphered.

Or perhaps, after being deciphered, there was no contact to her.

Scientists are like that, often immersed in their own research and forget about everything else.

Anti Entropy may have made a new breakthrough recently, but their thoughts are definitely focused on solving the Honkai.

But does Bronie really need to completely eliminate the Honkai?

As long as Elysia comes back, everything will be finished. Bronie has always believed in this.

And all she needs to do is wait for Kiana to mature and reconcile with Sirin.

So Bronie set her sights on Otto, who also wants to resurrect someone.

It's a long-term plan, but it has also brought enough shock to Otto himself.

As the moment of exploring the sea of quanta approaches, Bronie, during the last period of time before Bianka enters the sea of quanta, began the grandest action.

"Hehehe, with this grand invitation, how could I refuse? Can hackers really obtain everything they want so easily?"

"Well... in the universe, there's a world called Punklorde. It's a world where data and reality intertwine. The hackers there have the ability to edit ether, which is the core technology that allows them to modify reality. But I haven't received systematic education, Vill-V said this thing can manipulate a lot of space, only with the accumulation of knowledge can one fully exert its power."

Ether.

Information.

The programming language of the world.

Can even modify reality?

Hehehe, no wonder Bronie always says the world is a bit false, because having this ability, no matter what, would be able to observe a corner of the world, right?

Outside the imaginary tree of imaginary numbers, is it all emptiness?

Everything turns into meaninglessness, and what Bunny can do is leave storied behind and bring joy?

"So, I, Otto Apocalypse, hereby accept Bronie's invitation and participate in the resurrection plan. I am willing to provide Miss Bunny with all the resources at Schicksal's disposal and aim to develop real technology that can resurrect people!"

"Under the witness of the Cosmic Eye Ether Anchor, using the foundation of the laws of imaginary numbers as the contract, Otto Apocalypse will provide corresponding resources to Bronie, while Bronie will provide corresponding intelligence and data until a method is found to cut data from the imaginary tree and bring it to the current world."

Saying so, Bronie took out a golden paper, emitting a faint light. There were unfamiliar characters on the paper, but it seemed like anyone's eyes understood the meaning of the words before their mind did.

This kind of contract carries strong binding force, but it also depends on the effectiveness of the intermediary.

The gaze of the Aeon cannot reach here; Bronie can't possibly use Aha as an intermediary, right?

So Bronie thought, since it's still a great existence, is it possible for the Cosmic Eye Ether Anchor to succeed?

Anyway, let's try it first, and then scare Otto a bit with some special effects, right?

Obviously, looking at this paper contract, Otto nervously couldn't utter a word, his eyes filled with seriousness.

Cutting data from the imaginary tree to the current world?

Isn't this, in a sense, the resurrection he'd been pursuing!

And this rule of imaginary numbers, it sounds really powerful. It seems like Haxxor Bunny is also a bit afraid of him suddenly betraying her...

Can this kind of thing really ensure that neither party can betray the other?

Opportunities come and go in an instant!

Looking at Su beside Bronie, Otto also gritted his teeth, picked up the contract, and began writing his name.

Bronie's name had already appeared on the paper long ago, and the moment Otto finished writing, the golden contract font gradually changed.

In the witness column, the words "Cosmic Eye Ether Anchor" had originally been written, but they changed to "Lord of Elation, Aha!"

[ Hahaha! Let me see, a villain playing the role of a hero, and a hero playing the role of a villain! Actually, they've signed a contract with each other! And they want to resurrect the dead! Such an interesting game, how could I miss it! ]

At this moment, Otto felt like he was in a strange space, and Bronie beside him also widened her eyes.

The gaze projected by the other party enveloped him, and a name appeared in Otto's mind, Aha.

"Perhaps... the Honkai, for the Aeon, is really not much of a trouble?"

After coming back to her senses, Bronie's mood was also quite complicated. The Joyful Aeon, in fact, should be very powerful, but if targeted by them, it might become the Aeon's plaything.

It's hard to say whether this matter is good or bad.

"So that's an Aeon..."

Compared to the God of Honkai, to be honest, Otto feels that an Aeon is indeed a bit more outrageous.

Locking eyes with Haxxor Bunny, the complicated gaze sent by her also had a feeling of pity for himself, as if he got involved with this Aeon, he would be unlucky...

As for what form this bad luck will take, Otto doesn't know, but he is fully prepared!

For the sake of resurrecting Kallen, Otto can bear any cost!

"So... shall we cooperate happily?"

Otto reached out his hand.

"When you frequently deal with the energy of imaginary numbers, you will inevitably come into contact with the Path of the Aeon. And the Aeon always manages to cast its gaze upon people who defies destiny like us. Let's work together happily. I hope that in the future, we can accomplish our plans under the Aeon's amusement."

Bronie shook Otto's hand, sealing the deal.

Although Bronie didn't really want to open her heart to Otto, with the Aeon intervening now, who knows what the future holds!
