Bianka held twin pistols, vigilantly observing her surroundings. The Memorial Arena had been activated, and a dark shadow slowly emerged, imparting an eerie sensation.
Watching the shadow approach, Bianka became even more nervous and hastily fired her guns, but found the effect wasn't very apparent!
Is this the monster in a quantum state?
As Bianka attacked, wouldn't the opponent retaliate?
Quantum Shadows have the ability to split into multiple clones. After splitting, if the original cannot be found, Bianka would face attacks from all directions.
"This is just one Quantum Shadow, capable of splitting into eight. Usually, they appear in groups, but it's easy to handle them. You can use the Space-Time Fracture System or direct physical contact to Honkai them through the observer effect," explained Bronie beside Otto, slowly imparting some small knowledge she had previously told Bianka.
Bianka understood this, but in real combat, there would still be an adaptation process to apply her knowledge.
"It seems these monsters are like Chariot-type Honkai Beasts," Otto couldn't help but comment.
"Why? Maybe it's just game developers being lazy, thinking of reusing models, so they end up with this appearance," Haxxor Bunny joked.
"Haha! Miss Haxxor Bunny, you're really good at joking. I'm just curious. Maybe the Honkai that give rise to Honkai Beasts are also related to the Sea of Quanta and the Imaginary Tree. That's what I think."
"Yeah, maybe our lives are just a game, and all the bad things we encounter are predetermined?"
"If that's the case, what else can we do? In the end, we can only silently accept everything and wait for our fate to come. But do you really want to discuss these philosophical questions with me?"
If everyone is really just characters in a game, what difference does it make if they realize it?
It's just suicide or resignation.
Otto was eager to try, wanting to know what Bronie was thinking.
But all philosophical endeavors ultimately lead to nihilism, something Bronie couldn't be bothered to ponder.
"Never mind, I'm not good at philosophy. But it's something that all Travelers can never escape from, you know, the Paths controlled by the Aeons probably have something to do with philosophical ideas. In the end, we still need to understand it a bit," Bronie shrugged, and Otto fell silent for a while.
The name Aeon was mentioned in the information Bronie provided, but Otto felt that Bronie might not know much about it, so she just mentioned it in passing.
However, Bronie also mentioned that there was indeed some connection between the Aeon and the Imaginary Tree.
"Gazing up at the stars, The Qliphort constantly built walls in light-years to resist potential future enemies. As for that enemy... who knows if it even exists, but the Aeons can see more than we can," Bronie explained.
"So, can the Aeons resurrect people?"
Wow, Otto's probing went straight to the point!
"The Aeon of the Hunt hunts abundance, and the Abundance Aeon spreads eternity. I think these two are unlikely to do that. As for other Aeons, we need to judge based on the nature of the Paths they control and their powers. Who knows?" Bronie shrugged, and Otto remained silent for a long time.
At present, Bronie is the one who told him the names of the Aeons, each representing a destiny, and he also knows their names.
Harmony, Destruction, and so on.
But there are strengths and weaknesses, contradictions, and emotions between the Aeons, so Otto has an impulse to become a Aeon.
But they are powerful individual entities.
Or are they embodiments of some philosophical concept?
Can he become such an existence?
For example, specifically becoming a Aeon just to resurrect Kallen...
Even if it's just for a second, for a moment, it would be enough for Otto!
Otto fell silent, but there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in his eyes, as if a person who had been in despair for a long time finally saw a glimmer of hope.
Bronie felt like she might have said the wrong thing.
"Anyway, Bianka, this is a Quantum Shadow. Note that these monsters appear in groups, and there may also be Void Taurus. Next up is the data on Void Taurus," said Bronie as another shadow appeared in Bianka's training room.
Just dealing with a single Quantum Shadow is already troublesome enough, and now, this one that looks like a Chariot-class Honkai Beast, the Void Taurus, makes Rita even more worried.
"As long as you know the means to counter them, these monsters are actually quite easy to deal with. The observer effect... Speaking of which, I once encountered a Bubble World where the galaxies repeated destruction every twenty minutes. Inside, there was a race called the Nomai, searching for the Cosmic Eye. It was said that entering the Cosmic Eye would lock all possibilities inside the Bubble World and form a whole new universe. Of course, to the Nomai, the entire Bubble World was the universe."
"That sounds quite interesting."
Otto's thoughts returned from the Aeons to Bronie's words.
He hadn't expected such a Bubble World to exist in the Sea of Quanta.
"Yeah, they invented a technology that could rewind something back twenty-two minutes by absorbing immense energy. With this technology, they explored every corner of the galaxy, looking for the Cosmic Eye. Theoretically, as long as they kept rewinding, they could find the Cosmic Eye in an instant. They planned to detonate the sun to power the rewinding device. However, the plan failed, and the Nomai became extinct for special reasons. After several hundred million years, the sun naturally died, causing the world to continue cycling. The memories of a few people were sent back twenty-two minutes into their past selves."
"Did those people save their universe? Did they enter the Cosmic Eye?"
"There weren't that many fortunate events. I felt it was too dangerous at the time, so I just ran away. Firstly, I couldn't find the device to join the time loop, and finding a tiny thing in a galaxy in twenty-two minutes was too difficult for me. Secondly, I couldn't guarantee that the me who participated in the time loop would still be myself. These pieces of information were what I found outside the Bubble World, and the Cosmic Eye is actually an Ether Anchor."
"The possibilities in the Sea of Quanta are indeed vast."
Otto was deeply impressed by Bronie's experience.
The so-called collecting information from the outside world?
Otto felt sure that Bronie must have explored it herself, always coming out just before the explosion.
But developing a technology that relies on helium flashes to transmit information back twenty-two minutes? Was such technology in Bronie's hands?
Or, based on the chaotic rules within different Bubble Worlds of the Sea of Quanta, perhaps such technology couldn't be brought out and applied in this world?
"In the future, I will make a game based on this story. But that will definitely be a long time from now. Right now, I'm working on fighting games and horror games. In the short term, the story of the Bubble World will remain just a folder of data."
As they chatted, after Bianka became familiar with the tactics of the Void Taurus, she thoroughly eliminated the opponent.
Although she had countless opportunities to defeat her opponent, Bianka wanted to know just how many tricks the opponent had.
Suddenly appearing behind her, or charging and then disappearing, these tactics always made her feel defenseless.
It greatly tested her reaction speed.
"Alright, the data of the most common monsters in the Sea of Quanta has been fully entered. From now on, it's up to your self-discipline. The data in here can really keep you busy, Mr. Otto, I suggest that when exploring the Sea of Quanta, it's best to have equipment to crack electronic devices and enough food. The rest is up to you," said Bronie, feeling that she had already done a lot. The data left in the Memorial Arena could be used even more effectively for training Valkyries in the future.
Staying in Schicksal always made her feel a bit uneasy. Seeing Otto's smiling eyes, Bronie felt a bit annoyed.
She always felt like this guy was preparing some super evil plan!
Although Bronie knew that Otto was a heavy gamer and a hardcore Kallen fan, when it came to Kallen, Otto would never be soft!
"Well, thank you very much, Miss Haxxor Bunny, for your guidance. And the information you provided is actually very important to Schicksal. The Sea of Quanta is full of uncertainty and danger. The intelligence you provide can greatly help Bianka avoid many unknown dangers while exploring the Sea of Quanta."
"You get what you pay for, you know."
Bronie began to ask for payment.
"Of course, no problem, Amber, take Miss Haxxor Bunny to the prepared warehouse. Of course, Miss Haxxor Bunny, if you need transportation services, Schicksal can also provide them."
"No need!"
Hearing Bronie's decisive response, Otto was also puzzled.
To be honest, the reward proposed by Haxxor Bunny was nearly a ton of Soulium.
That stuff, well, there's plenty on the moon, and Schicksal often digs up ruins and hoards a lot of it.
But most of the Soulium is temporarily unusable. The ones that can be processed and used are very few, and even the Void Archives might not be able to summon them.
So those things are just sitting in the warehouse collecting dust, occasionally being used to make weapon blades.
It can only be said to have some uses, but definitely not many.
Suddenly wanting that stuff, Otto also felt it wasn't impossible to give it, anyway, it's just gathering dust in the warehouse.
Bronie naturally knew this and, for Otto, it was useless, but for Bronie, it was very useful!
Otto was very curious, so he followed Bronie to the warehouse.
Humming a tune from Outer Wilds, Bronie arrived at the warehouse and observed the situation inside.
"This tune is actually often played in that Bubble World. Every time I hear it, I think of that place. The scene with helium flashes is really beautiful..."
"I'm looking forward to the game you're going to make."
"Maybe there will be some small changes, but the general story won't change. These Souliums, well, they are indeed about to go bad. So, I've received the reward you gave."
Following Otto's gaze, Bronie projected an operation panel and seemed to enter something on it.
Pixel blocks popped up in the operation panel, gradually merging with the Soulium.
The Soulium began to deform, gradually forming a small cube, just like pixels.
Then came the scene like special effects, countless small blocks merged with each other, but the volume did not change, and then folded into each other. Finally, the huge amount of dormant Soulium in the warehouse disappeared, and a small cube appeared!
Otto felt it's little unbelievable.
Watching Bronie effortlessly hold the cube in her hand, it seemed that the weight of nearly a ton had disappeared.
Was this reasonable?
Is this world really real?
"Hehe, the world is false, everything is a program. You don't have such thoughts, do you?"
"No, no, no, Miss Haxxor Bunny, I'm just amazed by your abilities. As a scientist, I always maintain curiosity about everything. This is what drives us to explore the truth of the world, right?"
"After all, I'm a hacker, and modifying reality data is no problem. It's just a little trick that can't be seen, a good method for traveling. Of course, in the vast universe, there are actually many similar methods."
Walking out of the warehouse, you could see the sky.
But now it was daytime, so you couldn't see the stars. But Bronie's meaning was clear.
In the universe, there are endless possibilities. As long as you have patience to search, you will eventually have a chance to find the answer.
Maybe the answer you want is in the starry sky.
Or maybe you just don't have the confidence to find it?
Otto looked at Bronie's back and suddenly had this question in his mind.
Although the road to resurrecting Kiana was still long, five hundred years seemed not that long after all.
Aeons, Paths, Imaginary Tree, Sea of Quanta.
The answers are among them, and Honkai is not the only solution.
"Wait, Miss Haxxor Bunny!"
What's up? Please stay a while?
Originally, Bronie thought she had scared Otto into not moving.
Who knew, folks, Otto stuck with her!
"What's up?"
"Perhaps in the future, we can cooperate more deeply. Whether it's fighting against Honkai or exploring the truth of the world. But the most important thing I still can't understand is, what do you want to do in this world?"
Yeah, Haxxor Bunny has such powerful abilities, but Otto still can't figure out what she wants to do.
Fight against Honkai?
Come on, that's really unnecessary, but Haxxor Bunny is a good person, she must be trying to find a way to fight against Honkai.
Maybe looking for Soulium is also part of the plan?
Make games?
This is even more confusing for Otto, a traveler of the Sea of Quanta, how could she stay in one world for a long time?
But when he asked this question, Otto was even more nervous and cautious than Haxxor Bunny.
"It's nothing, I just want to turn this imperfect world into what I want it to be. Honkai is... very powerful, I just want to find some excitement, overcome some challenges. After all, isn't that what life is all about, to have some fun?"

After this brief encounter, although Otto didn't chat much with Haxxor Bunny, the information she provided was enough for Otto to digest for a while.
And Otto gradually came to understand Haxxor Bunny's personality.
Did she run away from that constantly repeating universe because it was too dangerous?
Otto didn't believe that.
He figured it out; Haxxor Bunny was the type of person who wasn't afraid of trouble, treating life almost like a game.
As long as she was happy, she could do anything. But because her nature was good, she didn't do anything too outrageous.
Instead, she liked watching fans praise her after releasing games. Things like "Haxxor Bunny falls from grace" and then returns from grace again were probably all her doing.
Perhaps she was a relatively kind mischief-maker.
However, after Bianka heard that Haxxor Bunny had left, she seemed very disappointed.
Even though they had only spent two days together, why did she suddenly care so much about what Haxxor Bunny was doing?
Later, Otto learned that Rita and Bianka had also heard about the world that kept repeating destruction, and the songs from there had also been played by Bronie.
Both of them were deeply attracted to such a world, and they really wanted to know what happened to that world in the end.
Otto didn't know either. But he thought it must have restarted, right?
So in the end, Otto could only say, after they come back from the Sea of Quanta, they could go find Haxxor Bunny and urge her to update more.
As long as the updates were frequent enough, just a fighting game and a horror game wouldn't take much production time.
Bianka returned to her intense training life, preparing adequately for exploring the Sea of Quanta.
Rita also temporarily put aside the matter of serving Bianka and began training hard, afraid of dragging her feet in the Sea of Quanta.
However, Otto also listened to Bronie's words, like about mechanical cracking tools, and he thought of the electronic knife in Titan's Fall, then opened the website for the game settings created by Haxxor Bunny.
Maybe he could still make an electronic knife himself?
As long as it wasn't some huge differential machine made of gears, he could directly crack anything from the hardware level.
To be honest, this idea was quite invincible. In combat against people, it could allow elite combat members to quickly sneak behind enemy lines and implement a decapitation plan!
What was most lacking in Schicksal?
Elite Valkyries. Each of them could take on a hundred enemies, and they were definitely not weak in fighting against humans.
Of course, the Honkai Beasts were another story.
"Lord Bishop, Miss Haxxor Bunny disappeared after landing in Egypt."
"Since we can't find her, let it be. It seems she may really have some connection with some remnants of the ancient civilization. Tell Fu Hua about this and let her make the decision."
Otto had always been very cautious.
Since he preliminarily judged that Haxxor Bunny might have some connection with remnants of the previous era, he didn't dare to let Fu Hua appear in front of Haxxor Bunny.
After all, he couldn't guarantee that if Fu Hua appeared in front of Haxxor Bunny, Schicksal might lose a trump card, right?
Just as an old friend, Otto felt it was necessary to tell Fu Hua about this matter.
Fu Hua's response was that she knew, then she searched for information about Haxxor Bunny on the internet, downloaded SBEAM, and even followed an anchor account called Miss Pink Elf.
This sudden change immediately puzzled Otto.
...
"...Hi! Did you miss me?"
Bronie returned to her beloved Elysian Realm!
Elysia, who was still playing in Eden, suddenly felt her girly radar rise.
Upon arriving at the gate to the Elysian Realm, she instantly saw the slightly grown-up Bronie.
Through video communication, Elysia only felt that Bronie had changed a bit, but only after seeing her in person did Elysia understand that time really flowed on Bronie.
The majestic chest suddenly leaned over, and a mass of pink unknown substance instantly occupied Bronie's field of vision.
"Ahem, it's been a long time, Ellie. Um, actually, I kind of missed you."
"Oh my! That sounds really sad. Is it really just a little bit?"
"A little bit, um, just a little bit..."
Seeing Elysia getting closer, Bronie's little heart pounded.
Delicate fingertips slid across tender shoulders, seemingly feeling the fullness after the fruit ripened, and sweeter voices echoed in her ears.
"Really, just a little bit?"
Ah ah ah ah ah!
Why can you be so annoying!
Bronie's mentality was a bit shattered, but Elysia was very pleased with Bronie's reaction.
"Hahaha! I know Haxxor Bunny is usually very busy, but occasionally she still comes to the Elysian Realm to see everyone! Look at you, you've grown up so much now." Elysia finally let go at the last moment when Bronie couldn't hold it anymore.
But just as Bronie sighed in relief, her arm was again pulled up and plunged into softness.
"Next time, make sure to bring Kiana or Bronya over! Of course, if it's other children, I'll be happy too!"
Was it because she only contributed pictures of beautiful girls and didn't contribute real beautiful girls that she got angry!
"Next time for sure, but if Elysia does anything bad to those children, I might consider breaking your limbs." Bronie said something terrifying in a joking manner.
Elysia was amused by this.
"It seems Haxxor Bunny's possessiveness is really strong. I just hope that when I'm with you, there can't be anyone else?"
"Ahem, it's not the time to talk about this now. Let's talk about something else, like the materials I brought back, nearly a ton of inert soulium. I think these things will definitely be a significant help."
"Then I'll make sure to call Vill-V!" Elysia was quite surprised to hear this news. She really wanted to run to Vill-V's Helixcraft immediately and tell her about this, but she was also a bit reluctant to leave Bronie.
"Well then, Bronie, you chat with Eden for now! I'll go report this good news to Vill-V!" Saying this, Elysia took Bronie to the lounge, while Eden was in the lounge holding a Switch controller, apparently playing a game.
"Welcome back, Bronie. It seems you've grown a lot during this time." As Elysia left in a hurry, Eden knew that Elysia was very happy right now.
What concept is a ton of soulium? To be honest, Eden didn't know, but she felt like it was approaching the time when everyone would leave. So this news could make Elysia so happy.
"I feel like I still have a lot of room to grow. How do I look? Haven't I become deformed?" Bronie spun around in place.
"The outfit coordination is very good, did you design it yourself?" In order to meet Elysia in the most perfect way, Bronie spent a lot of time on her appearance.
It was somewhat reminiscent of Bronie's railway style, slightly green but approaching maturity. The clothing had undergone many careful designs.
After all, making games, you have to deal with those, and once you get skilled, it's fine.
"How is it? Not bad, right?"
"Very nice, very nice indeed!"
"Thank you for the compliment." Eden liked nothing more than to hear praise for her work, and in Eden's eyes, Bronie could be considered a great artist.
Like a great person in civilization. Games were constantly being produced, and each game was so easy to move people. And music was even more genius!
"The Legend of Zelda, although not as good in art as Elden Ring or Bloodborne, this game can give children a very interesting childhood." Eden was still exploring the Hyrule continent to this day.
"Another poor Zelda princess forgotten by Link. Hyrule continent is indeed a magical place, isn't it?"
"Haha, yes, it always brings new surprises. In the temple puzzles, it's most interesting not to use conventional methods to clear them."
"After all, everyone likes that feeling of cheating, right?"
"Many people do, but I've checked the current civilization's network, and only you have done it." Bronie also knew that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild could be considered a masterpiece.
Originally, Bronie thought the game was just like that, and the sequel probably wouldn't have much change. But who knew there would be something like Tears of the Kingdom? That thing really completely integrated the joy of 'cheating' into the game, fearing you wouldn't skip class.
Completely letting go, but also making the game even better! What is a surprise? When the trailer for Tears of the Kingdom was released, Bronya could feel what a surprise was.
"It's just putting the fun on the game, there will always be people who understand this, and in the future, there will be more creators producing more interesting games."
Bronie modestly hinted that, in Eden's eyes, Bronie also had a bit of a very rich taste.
Very good, it's supposed to have that taste!
A true artist should have that kind of feeling! Eden was once again immersed in the Hyrule continent, watching people wield countless powerful weapons, skillfully riding on the back of horses, which brought a considerable contrast to Bronie.
And Elysia didn't leave for too long.
"Finally, back, my dear audience!"
Is this the personality of the magician appearing this time?
Bronie looked at Vill-V.
"Soulium is ductile and multifunctional. With a ton of it, is it enough to make the devices you want?" Saying this, Bronie took out a cube, and this cube gradually unfolded, completely filling the space around with soulium!
"Wow! Once again, our lovely audience has brought new surprises to everyone in the Elysian Realm! It seems that you have reached a new level in developing your own abilities! Congratulations!"
Weird, why didn't she come up and perform first, but instead congratulated first?
Seems like realizing Bronie's strange gaze, Vill-V explained with a smirk, "Thought I had a performance, but actually there was no performance at all, isn't this also a surprise! But I have some regrettable news to tell you."
Alright, the focus is here.
Bronie immediately perked up and listened carefully.
"Mobius thinks that just inputting memory into soulium and then fabricating a body, this kind of thing, cannot be considered resurrection, nor can it be considered welcoming a new life."
"Hmm... Let me think, have you made new progress in studying imaginary numbers, and also made new progress in meme organisms? Is it you or Mobius?"
"This is of course our joint research result! Of course, mainly Mobius is unwilling to admit it!"
She is a biologist, but she turned herself into a mechanical life form without understanding it.
How can she continue her research on her own body?
Although machines could also become Aeons.
But is that Mobius's field?
So Mobius is somewhat unwilling. She heard that the Tree of Imaginary Numbers records everything about the present and past of this universe?
Then isn't it fair to fish out her past self from the inside?
Vill-V, on the other hand, felt that it didn't matter, but when she asked Eden what she thought, Eden actually hoped that Elysia could be resurrected in a proper way.
She sacrificed herself in the past, but the Herrscher of Humanity didn't appear in this civilization! Is there a possibility that Elysia didn't actually die completely. To be honest, hearing Vill-V and Mobius's opinions, Bronie couldn't help but hold her head in frustration.
This moment has finally come.
They were pobably also planning to go down Otto's path, right?
That guy Otto is going to charge at the tree, creating a world with Kallen, but what Mobius wants to do is to cut the tree and directly extract her own part of the information!
"So you need Kiana, the Herrscher of the Void's power, right? Or is it the power of the Herrscher of Legion? Or is it the power of the Herrscher of Binding?"
"Oh, it seems that my preparatory little white mouse hasn't missed out on learning! It's easy to talk to smart people, although the Herrscher of Legion and the Herrscher of Binding have not yet come out, but don't you have the Herrscher of the Void by your side?"
Mobius's sweet voice flowed like a snake, instantly giving Bronie goosebumps all over her body.
Although this tone sounded quite dangerous, Mobius probably wouldn't do anything too excessive.
"She's still underage, let's not do anything too excessive to the little girl, okay?"
"With that tone of yours, you sound just like that annoying Elysia. Aren't I also a kid? Let me play with her, it's okay, right?"
Goodness, at your age, you're still pretending to be young!
"No way! It's actually Grandma Mobius who likes to pretend to be a child!"
When Bronie, who looked older than Mobius, said this, the damage to Mobius could be said to be quite explosive.
"You! You... Elysia!!!!"
