Bab 82: Chapter 82: Sin: What Goes Around Comes Around

"Long live Hydra!"

"Oh! Long live Hydra!"

"Bronya! Don't make a fuss here, I'm discussing serious matters!"

Connecting to the Ash Serpent's communication, the other party immediately shouted the slogan, which happened to be heard by Bronya, who also joined in shouting.

Hearing Bronie's reprimand, Bronya just tilted her head and said, "Bronya thinks this way of confirming identities is very cool."

"I didn't expect the great Lord and her confidant have such a hobby. Still, The matter you wanted to investigate has already yielded results. The employer of the mercenaries has been identified as a member of the World Serpent, Jackal. Does Hydra need to intervene?"

"No, there's no need. I'll personally let her understand in due time how terrifying it is to suddenly find a Honkai beast's head by the bedside. If she still has designs on the children at the orphanage..."

"Hehehe, you're really humorous."

"The Hydra isn't ready to reveal itself yet. Once we find new ways to fight Honkai, you are important assets in thwarting Project Stigma. You just need to develop and grow steadily and provide me with intelligence when necessary. After all, each of you in the Grey Serpent is an expert in gathering information, right?"

"Thank you for your praise, but there's something even more important that the Lord should know."

"Oh?"

"The Archbishop of Schicksal has issued orders to collect information about you by any means necessary, including things like consumption records."

Hmm, Bronie had once used daily consumption records to determine the location of the orphanage in Cocolia's hands. Why wouldn't Schicksal do the same?

"Don't worry, I have ways to conceal my identity. But I bet that fellow Otto is getting restless. I'll definitely attend the upcoming banquet."

"Since you're so insightful, I won't interfere too much in your plans, Sire. If there's anything, please contact me more often."

After saying this, the Ash Serpent ended the communication, while Bronya quietly looked at herself, her eyes seemingly filled with admiration.

"Cough, cough, the mastermind behind the mercenaries who attacked the orphanage has been identified as Jackal from the World Serpent. Her name is Cleo, a genius scientist. Project Stigma is the final means left behind by the civilization of the previous era to combat Honkai, but that plan is very flawed and would lead to a huge cost for human civilization. Cleo is trying to alter the Stigmata plan and find alternative ways to combat Honkai."

But it couldn't be denied that Jackal was a beast, no better than Otto.

She also used children as experimental subjects, without any sense of morality. Even if her intentions were good, Bronya would never let her off the hook.

She wondered if that bitch would restrain herself after being threatened by her.

"Finding ways to fight Honkai? So even disasters similar to natural laws can be overcome?"

"Once you reach a certain level of strength, you can even change the laws of the universe. Aeons are such an existence, and the existence of the Aeon proves its possibility.

Fighting Honkai is just a matter of course. Although it's a very long-term goal, as long as we take it step by step, it will be achievable one day."

"Bronya will also join Bronie in fighting Honkai in the future."

"Then I'll make some equipment for fighting Honkai for you! Do you prefer to speak with your fists or have robots by your side?"

"Speak with fists?"

Bronie didn't quite understand what Bronya meant.

But when she heard robots, she immediately chose robots without hesitation.

That's right, robots are so cool!

"It's probably using giant fists to smash the opponent into pieces in minutes."

"Bronya wants robots, giant robots, like BT!"

"Okay, okay, I'll make whatever you want."

Looking at the small face similar to her own in the mirror, Bronie felt a surge of affection.

It's just a pity that Bronie used to be a chef specializing in ducks, but now she's become a member of the duck family.

Taking everything in only ends up hurting oneself, so Bronya has nothing but sisterly affection for Bronie.

It's really a pity, but watching herself grow gradually in the mirror, isn't this also an all-round experience of nurturing ducks too?

To be honest, this feeling isn't bad at all.

Just as Bronya was admiring herself in the mirror, Schicksal sent an invitation.

That's right, it's nearing the end of the year again, and Schicksal Entertainment's annual conference is about to begin.

The new DLC for Civilization has been updated, sparking a lot of discussion online. The addition of new elements to the game has instantly changed its style.

For those who enjoy this type of game, it means several days of sleepless nights, forgetting about the time.

And more importantly, there's the game Apex.

Although this online game appears to be free, the pay-to-play model, like the Battle Pass, has made both Anti Entropy and Schicksal rake in a lot of money.

Countless people are eagerly anticipating what Haxxor Bunny's next work will be, whether it's the exhilarating aerial shooting game of Titanfall, the intense and thrilling battle royale gameplay of Apex, or the grand epic fantasy theme of Elden Ring.

All of these have left players with fond memories deep in their hearts.

Naturally, Bronie's importance is growing in both Schicksal Entertainment and Homu Entertainment.

Receiving invitations to the annual conferences is also quite normal.

The invitation to Homu Entertainment's annual conference followed shortly after, but Bronie didn't hesitate to temporarily decline the invitation and instead said they had decided to go to Schicksal Entertainment's side.

Well, this matter quickly reached Einstein's ears. After all, with Welt absent, most matters were being handled by Einstein and Tesla. And now, Haxxor Bunny suddenly wanting to go to Schicksal.

Who knows if it's a trap there?

Perhaps she will even come face to face with Otto directly. By then, Bronie might be tortured to death by Otto's Divine Key, or Bronie might even become their enemies the next time they meet!

So Einstein directly dialed Bronie's phone, intending to warn them.

"On such a beautiful day, with birds chirping and flowers so fragrant, Dr. Einstein would like to ask for guidance?"

"This is our first official communication. I heard that you agreed to the invitation to Schicksal Entertainment's annual conference. I feel it's necessary to remind you not to underestimate Otto's methods."

After connecting the communication, Einstein was also slightly surprised.

Because on the other side of the screen, Haxxor Bunny's appearance was so young that it made one question life.

Welt had previously said that Haxxor Bunny was a very powerful genius, young, energetic, passionate, but also very calm.

Now, seeing Haxxor Bunny, it was hard not to suspect that she deliberately used some techniques to make herself look very young.

"I know that Otto possesses the final work of the previous civilization, the First Divine Key, the Void Archives. Originally, Vill-V wanted to design it as an all-knowing and all-powerful entity, but due to limitations in time, resources, and capabilities, she ended up instilling all the technologies she could think of within the civilization instead."

"Almost all the technologies of the previous civilization?"

"Almost all. After all, it's the core of the First Herrscher, so you can imagine the immense potential."

"No wonder..."

Einstein suddenly realized, and Otto's astonishing combat power could be explained in many ways.

"It contains blueprints for most of the Divine Keys, including the Eighth Divine Key, Fenghuang Down, made by the Core of the Herrscher of Sentience, which has the ability to hypnotize, control and modify memories."

"You know all this, yet you still want to go?"

"Mm-hmm, there's something very important to me in Otto's possession, something that your Anti Entropy can't provide."

Seeing that Haxxor Bunny's decision was made, Einstein even judged that even this meeting was probably prepared by Haxxor Bunny long ago.

What else is there to say now?

"I hope your hacking skills can really help you achieve your goals, but provoking Schicksal is a very unwise thing to do. Schicksal's influence is everywhere, and as soon as a flaw is exposed, it will be seized upon. Although Anti Entropy may help you to some extent, outside of the United States, we, Anti Entropy are powerless."

It seemed that Einstein was really worried about her.

Maybe appearance also counts as a bonus.

"Do I really look unreliable?"

"How old are you?"

"Sixteen."

Einstein felt her blood pressure rising again!

But then she thought of the games made by Haxxor Bunny.

Obviously, these were not made by the immature mindset of a sixteen-year-old, but more confirmation was needed.

"Is all this planned?"

"That's right, all of this is planned. In my career as a mercenary hacker, I have never experienced any failure, I never fight battles that I'm not sure of winning, nothing can stop me from reaching my goals, not even Otto and his Schicksal. But I don't really need to have too many conflicts with Otto."

Although she herself disliked Otto, Bronie also knew that Schicksal, under Otto's control, indeed made significant contributions to fighting Honkai, and even nurtured Bianka to be stronger than a protagonist.

As an adult, who meets someone and immediately sees them as an enemy?

It's all just a matter of exchanging interests.

Bronie can give them what they want, and at the moment they meet Otto, Bronie can get what they want, even if Otto wants to refuse, it's impossible.

Of course, if Otto doesn't notice, they can still make some money, and if Otto does notice, he won't be able to easily break up with them.

"You just need to be a little careful yourself. Anti Entropy can provide you with some support because the information you provide us with is indeed very important in combating Honkai."

"Sorry, I'm not the kind of person who's good at research, so all I can bring you is information. If it's useful, then that's great. After all, in such a beautiful world, how can I bear to watch it being destroyed by Honkai?"

Bronya was still by their side, because they were communicating with important people, so Bronya stayed by Bronie's side, quiet like a doll.

Looking at Bronya's obedient appearance, Bronie couldn't help but reach out and touch her head a few times.

"Hahaha, I'm starting to believe that you're from another world, but then again, should we treat you as an alien?"

"If you want to see it that way, it's fine. There were actually cases of alien visitors in the previous civilization. Later, he became a MANTIS and once faced the Finality with the warriors of the previous civilization, finally burning out his own life in the battle against Honkai."

"Is there really such a thing... Well, I understand, but do you really not need any support?"

"How about preparing a plane for me?"

"No problem, if it's just that, there's naturally no problem."

Seeing that Haxxor Bunny no longer asked for more things, Einstein finally ended the communication.

Bronya leaned over and opened Civilization on the computer, and found the option for Civilization Encyclopedia, and opened it.

"Einstein... has lived for so long?"

"Otto Apocalypse, the Archbishop of Schicksal, has also lived for five hundred years. Holding powerful forces and extreme wisdom, longevity is not difficult, even reversing aging is not difficult. As for Miss Tesla and Miss Einstein... do you still remember the Sixth Herrscher?"

"The Herrscher of Death."

Bronya naturally took classes very seriously, and when Bronie was teaching, they taught everything, just in case someone encounters a Herrscher and doesn't know what powers they possess.

"Death often accompanies rebirth. The Sixth Divine Key, Black Abyss White Flower, has the ability to grant death to others, as well as the ability to grant life to others. Under the influence of such a Divine Key, it's not difficult to coincidentally gain longevity. It's just something that happens."

"Bronya doesn't believe in coincidences!"

"I'm quite inclined to believe it. Next, I'll have to rely on you to look after the house. I'll go to Canghai City."

"Canghai City, but isn't Canghai City in China? Schicksal Entertainment seems to be in Europe..."

"Who knows why they chose that place? Obviously, Schicksal's influence hasn't reached China yet, or maybe it's to dispel my doubts?"

"It's very likely that Bronya thinks Schicksal wants to lower Bronie's guard. China has very strict control measures, and coupled with the fact that China is not under Schicksal's territory, preliminary judgment is that Schicksal may not have deep hostility towards Sister Bronie."

"Yeah..."

Bronie nodded in agreement. Bronya's analysis was indeed good. Schicksal is also sending some friendly signals, and that guy Otto, as long as it doesn't involve Kallen, he's not that crazy. Even when he was teaching Bianka, he said that if he became a role like Medea, please don't forgive his sins.

"But speaking of which, Bronie, if you're going to attend the annual conference, should Bronie wear formal attire? Perhaps this is basic etiquette? It's written on the invitation."

"Eh!? Is that so?"

"Bronya called Elysia over. She's very good at dressing up, and Bronya isn't very skilled at it, so?"

"Hey!"

Sin suddenly burst into the room, as if she had been prepared for this day.

And the other children cautiously peeked their heads in and gradually gathered around.

"Oh my! Bronie, you haven't contacted me in so long, I might get a little upset! To make up for it, you'll have to dress up for me, and then I'll take care of Bronie's outfit for the next event!"

Bronya contacted Elysia, and on the screen, Elysia looked excited.

It's true that what goes around, comes around. Sister Elysia came over, her face full of joy, as if she wanted to make herself feel like a dress-up doll.

"Gee, isn't it completely unavoidable? Then my attire, I'll leave it to you. Just don't make me look too ugly."

Bab 83: Chapter 83: Jackal's Bedside Has a Head

Bronie possessed the ability to project anything understood, even data she knew, hence the choices in formal attire seemed somewhat extravagant.

Elysia directly designed a set of pink skirts, accompanied by various special effects, resembling a flamboyant peacock. It gave the impression of a princess, but contradicted Bronie's usual style, creating a subtle contrast. It was akin to a jade pond, perhaps?

Seele, striving to employ her imagination, crafted a set resembling lilies. Though it appeared somewhat plain, Bronie felt it suited Seele better.

As for Sin? She was too excited and ended up with various medieval dresses, resembling torture devices when worn by Bronie, and subsequently vetoed.

Unable to find suitable attire online due to most being designed for curvier figures, Bronya found herself fatigued after the antics.

"Alright, stop crowding, don't you feel warm? Formal attire should suit the occasion; I dislike overly revealing outfits. Plus, they should match the Shenzhou style..."

Closing her eyes, Bronie recalled the luxurious attire provided in Taixu Gate. Perhaps that ensemble would be more fitting?

Entering the dressing room and returning, she busily tended to her hair. "Wow," exclaimed Bronya. Like a siren emerging from the depths, Bronie's hair fixing captivated even Bronya.

"Since it's a Shenzhou feast, qipao elements are necessary, right? I enlarged my Taixu Gate attire slightly. How does this outfit look?" Bronie twirled, the skirt's hem swaying with her movements.

"Wow! Bronie, you're quite the fashionista!" Elysia, momentarily stunned, quickly expressed her eagerness to see Bronie personally.

Regrettably, she was just data, awaiting Bronie's return to the Elysian Realm to interact.

"But this attire is too revealing, lacks the secrecy needed. In case of infiltration, most witnesses may need to be eliminated," Bronie confessed shyly, deflecting attention.

"For the sake of daily beauty, sacrifices are worthwhile!" quipped Bronya.

"Even in our winters of minus thirty degrees, spare me. Yet, I'll wear this to Shenzhou. Await the good news I bring back!"

"Be cautious!" Elysia cautioned, aware of Bronie's ongoing efforts for the Elysian Realm. It seemed there was hope to lead everyone out.

Unfortunately, the Elysian Realm's residents had limited capabilities, aside from teachings and observing the eccentricities of two scientists.

"Don't worry, when have I ever crashed?" Bronie reassured, instilling concern in the orphanage children.

Even Seele sought another Seele's help to learn more about Bronie's dangerous mission.

It seemed she wished to assist.

From Bronie's demeanor, the children sensed the peril of her upcoming journey, despite her transparency.

The invitation was sent out a week in advance. However, this didn't leave Bronie much time because she needed a visa to go to Shenzhou.

Without the help of Schicksal and AE, she had to resort to some underhanded methods to obtain a valid visa.

Plus, she still needed to pay a visit to Miss Jackal. How could this amount of time be enough?

So, on the day she received the invitation, Bronie left the orphanage early the next day.

The weapons in the secret room increased slightly, and there were more drones. If mercenaries attacked again, Bronie hoped she could properly deploy the drones.

...

Days passed, years passed. Miss Cleo was well aware that if she followed the tasks assigned by the World Serpent Lord, it was uncertain whether human civilization would still exist in the end.

So the tasks given by the Serpent Lord must, and would, be completed!

As for sacrifices? That was only natural! Sacrifice was just like dust, at most causing a sneeze.

Jackal had no moral bottom line and rarely considered the consequences of her actions.

Although she was far from being like Mobius, her talent was still valuable.

After hearing about the complete annihilation of the mercenary team, Jackal became interested in the orphanage controlled by that warlord.

It was certain that there were more people studying the collapse phenomenon in the world, but each one progressed differently, and Jackal considered herself at the forefront!

Therefore, the experimental materials under the control of the warlord's leader would be a waste in her hands.

So, Miss Cleo wanted to take over those things before the experimental materials were consumed. Refusing to waste them!

After all, the awakened Stigmata were one in a million, and each child with resistance to the collapse was a potential asset.

This time, the mercenaries failed probably because she didn't offer enough money.

Next time, under a hefty reward, there would certainly be powerful mercenaries! Of course, Jackal didn't know why she couldn't control Raven to bring the children back.

She was complaining about back pain one day, leg pain the next.

Even if her mood was low, it didn't affect Miss Cleo much.

She still ate and slept well every day, then did experiments diligently, seeing progress every day.

Miss Cleo was quite satisfied with her current situation.

Just today, as the days in 2009 were nearing their end, Jackal woke up in her luxurious mansion in Arc City and saw a terrifying scene beside her bed!

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Cleo's scream echoed through the sky, and the outside World Serpent guards immediately burst into Jackal's room, only to see a scene they had never witnessed in their careers.

Between the contours of the bedcovers, there was a head. Its pallid face, along with some mechanical modifications and features reminiscent of the collapse beasts, stained the bedsheets with purple blood.

The warmth emanating through the sheets seemed to indicate that this thing was fresh. In fact, Cleo wasn't unfamiliar with this head.

Because she saw this thing every day in her laboratory, where unfortunate volunteers were tricked into experiments, leaving themselves in a state neither human nor ghost, and ultimately sacrificing themselves to her.

And this head was one of many failed products. However, even with such failures, they were supposed to be hidden in the underground 30th floor laboratory of the Heliopolis Life Sciences in Arc City, guarded by numerous high-tech mechs and soldiers.

Once Heliopolis Life Sciences encountered a problem, alarms would sound, surely disturbing her sleep!

But this head appeared on her bed without any warning, scaring Cleo, who had just woken up from her slumber.

"Lady Jackal! A letter has been found!"

"Bring it here!"

Jackal gasped for breath, still not having recovered from the huge shock.

This time, being able to deliver the head to her bedside queitly, next time they would definitely be able to quietly take her head off.

Even if Jackal was arrogant, she could recognize that she had just narrowly passed through the gates of hell.

[This is a warning this time. Next time will be death. Your Stigmata modifications are useless.]

There was a long list of locations behind it, all addresses of Miss Jackal's safe houses!

The letter didn't specify what exactly had happened.

But had Jackal done few wicked deeds?

"Contact Grey Serpent for me! Investigate! Who dares to threaten me, the one who dares to pull the Serpent's tail!"

Before finding out who was threatening her, the experiments and such would probably have to be put on hold.

After all, being able to sneak into her own company without being noticed, and quietly delivering that thing's head in front of her, this was not an ability that ordinary people possessed.

Next time would be death; this kind of threat was definitely not to be taken lightly!

"Also, prepare a ticket for me to North Africa. I'll go there temporarily to lay low."

...

"It's really not easy to see you, Mr. Otto, the CEO of Schicksal Entertainment."

The annual meeting of Schicksal Entertainment was uneventful, with a normal opening, a normal banquet, and even the speech wasn't given by Mr. Otto.

Fortunately, the formal attire chosen by Bronie didn't make any mistakes and perfectly blended into the atmosphere.

But if Bronie wore some medieval noble girl's gorgeous dress or the strange little skirt full of special effects given by Elysia, it would probably attract a lot of attention, just like a guest with japanese cat ears still on their head in a temple at night.

After eating and drinking enough, Bronie was about to use some other means to find Otto's figure.

When she couldn't find him, she was planning to leave directly.

At this moment, a maid walked over and led her to a private room in the venue.

Bronie then saw Otto leisurely enjoying red wine and playing games in the room!

Damn it, the banquet was too boring, and there were no handheld game consoles outside, which meant that Bronie could only wait for Otto to come to her while eating.

So, when she saw him for the first time, Bronie expressed her dissatisfaction slightly.

"Hello, Miss Bunny, but your appearance is too deceptive. After observing repeatedly, I confirmed that it was really you."

"What did you use to confirm?"

Bronya raised an eyebrow.

"Well, didn't you put yourself into the game? This game, which made countless anchors suffer but also stimulated the rise of the live streaming industry, was conquered with Miss Bunny. The protagonist on it has your face, right?"

Otto projected an image as he spoke. "It's pretty good, isn't it? Isn't it cute?"

Bronya was very satisfied with her modeling and nodded involuntarily.

"So, you went to such lengths to lure me here and meet you. What do you want?"

Otto's time was particularly precious. Since they were in this room, it was best to make things clear. If it was friendly, then talk it out and then use Fenghuang Down to inspect. If it was malicious, then directly investigate with Fenghuang Down.

So Mr. Otto was so confident.

"Nothing much, just want to have some technical exchanges, about AI, and memory. You know, the light flowing above the light dust contains fragments of memory recorded in imaginary energy. I'm interested in these things, so I want to exchange ideas with the Archbishop of Schicksal, who controls the most advanced technology today."

"Oh? Is it really like this?"

In the quiet room, Mr. Otto carefully scrutinized Bronya. The clothes she was wearing didn't look like she could carry any weapons at all.

This harmless appearance, and the "Haxxor Bunny" he investigated, were completely different.

And this outfit with obvious Shenzhou style didn't feel out of place on the Haxxor at all!

She always felt very mysterious, but after close communication, she felt even more mysterious.

So Mr. Otto couldn't help but be curious and used the Void Archives to mimic the Fenghuang Down.

"I've always been a curious person. Technology, and such, can be considered as my little collecting hobby. In short, I'll tell you what I know as an exchange. You tell me about some technologies that interest me. How about that?"

Seeing Miss Bunny's reaction, Mr. Otto frowned.

Did Fenghuang Down work or not?

Normally, people under the influence of Fenghuang Down were quite dull, but Bronya's rich expressions made him wonder if it was carved into her DNA?

"Oh? What do you want from me?"

"Knowledge exchange, there are many things I can offer, such as the current number of known Aeons, gods above the starry sky, and the destinies they created. Or how pure memetic life forms composed of memories move in the universe, or the true usage of this light dust, and the power hidden in memories."

It sounded like a made-up story. But gods did exist! However, Otto himself still had many things to be determined, and experiments had not produced obvious results yet.

"So, what do you want from me?"

"Probably... something related to the technology of digital life forms? Unlocking the shackles of digital life forms, allowing them to act in real life, and simulating sensory signals, etc."

Fenghuang Down was activated again, but Bronya's lack of response left Otto confused.

He clearly understood the Divine Key, but why didn't the Fenghuang Down make the Bunny look dazed?

Fortunately, the confusion was only temporary.

After intelligence regained the upper hand again, Otto began to carefully analyze Bronya's current situation.

Covered from head to toe with harmlessness, she came up with the idea of technical exchange right away and brought out some content he had never heard of.

What did this represent?

Did it mean that the Haxxor Bunny had no hostile intentions? Or was she, like himself, confident and fearless? Perhaps both.

"Maybe we can have a deeper level of cooperation, but you'd better introduce yourself to me first. Who are you, exactly?"
