Since the Flamechasers had already decided to proceed in this manner, what reason did Bronie have to refuse?
It boiled down to the fact that midway through the technological development, the client suddenly changed their requirements. Although some progress was retained, Vill-V, the progress regressed to the beginning.
Fortunately, Bronie wasn't directly involved in technological research. So, upon hearing that the others desired the power of the Herrscher of the Void, Bronie immediately thought of the Cosmic Juggernaut.
Embarrassingly enough, Bronie had been craving the Cosmic Juggernaut for quite some time, but considering that Otto might also want it, she had always been hesitant to reach out directly.
Moreover, the Cosmic Juggernaut had been operational for nearly fifty thousand years. Who knows if it had sustained any damage or how much functionality it still retained.
But now, with both Vill-V and Mobius expressing the same desire, what other option did Bronie have?
Ultimately, they had to figure out a way to relocate the Cosmic Juggernaut.
Vill-V hadn't prepared a magic performance for herself, but she and Mobius had prepared an exam!
Bronie never expected that, even though she was almost twenty years old, she would still be assigned an exam?
There was no choice. Bronie could only grit her teeth and write it. However, she received a good grade and was rewarded with a Signet by Mobius.
Mobius's possession signet were based on stigmata development. Did Bronie have stigmata?
Of course not. So, after informing Mobius of this, Mobius also felt quite helpless, asking if she was the kind of person who would do something terrible!
Unfortunately, Bronie still couldn't forget the scene of the World Serpent's agent coming to trial. They ended up accidentally trapped in Mobius's little black room until the body started to rot, and Klein had to slowly dispose of it.
After causing a stir with Kalpas and checking on Kosma and Griseo's situation, Bronie discussed some game design matters with Kosma. Kosma was very satisfied with the design and art collections of Guilty Gear.
Occasionally, in Griseo's exclusive space, one could see things like Titans, presumably Kosma's toys.
As for Griseo, Bronie asked her how to depict psychological horror. Griseo looked bewildered but expressed her understanding on paper.
As a result, Bronie experienced the real Evil Within game experience on the spot.
It was really similar.
That bizarre and terrifying world, full of various hints of horror, just existing there created a lot of data junk.
Before she could even finish playing, Bronie received a scolding from Klein.
There was no choice. Klein was already tired enough.
Every time she conducted research and thinking with scientists from the Elysian Realm, as a data life form, she would inevitably generate some strange junk data. If these junks accumulated, it would cause errors in the operation of the Elysian Realm.
So when Bronie suddenly appeared and even made Griseo contact such terrible things, Klein was already being very polite by not kicking Bronie out.
Watching Vill-V sneak into the laboratory and Mobius still not providing much information, Bronie decided to go see Mr. Su before leaving.
There was no choice. After all, Bronie's attention was focused on the Cosmic Juggernaut, so she had to ask Mr. Su's opinion within the Elysian Realm.
"Hello, Successor. It's been about four months since you last released a new game. How is the progress of the fighting game?"
Well, he just went straight to the game question, huh!
"In progress, in progress."
Bronie's answer was still the same.
"Hehehe, then let me guess, you came to me to find out about the Cosmic Juggernaut, right?" Although he had expected it, Su still hoped to hear the real answer from Bronie.
The Cosmic Juggernaut belonged to the important props of the Project Velaka, used to observe the number of Parallel Worlds and find ways to counteract the Honkai.
But unfortunately, since the destruction of the previous civilization, Su in the Elysian Realm had never contacted Su from the outside world, let alone use the memories of living people to update the synchronized memory data.
"I know where the Cosmic Juggernaut is, and I also know the backdoor of the Cosmic Juggernaut. It's just that Mobius has improved the resurrection plan, hoping for a more realistic resurrection, rather than just a continuation of memories."
"She has never given up on this plan. It seems that you, Bronie, have given her a completely new hope."
"But resurrection is also a matter of sequence and difficulty. Cosmic Juggernaut created by the core of the Herrscher of the Void, and your own entity staying next to the Cosmic Juggernaut, will be the most suitable objects. And the most important point is that, in the real world, you are about to die. If you resurrect after death, the difficulty will be much higher."
Actually, Bronie was quite in agreement with Vill-V and Mobius's ideas, but when it really came down to it, it was really difficult.
After all, resurrecting a Flamechaser would require charging at the Imaginary tree once. Won't that tire you out?
Charging at the Imaginary Tree requires a necessary condition: accurate knowledge of the tree's location, sufficient strength, and authorization!
That's right, the most important thing is undoubtedly authorization. Bronie also thought that the core of Herrscher of Binding within Judah might have authorization, but now is definitely not the time to access that.
What to do?
Start with Kevin, Fu Hua, and Su.
Being alive is much simpler than being dead. Kevin is still immersed in the sea, which makes him hard to find. As for Fu Hua, she is in the headquarters of Schicksal, and if something were to happen to her, Otto would definitely come after her.
And Su is the easiest one to approach.
"Fifty thousand years have indeed come to this point. It's probably beyond my expectations to reach this point. Well then, Bronie, what kind of help do you need?"
"First, record a video, revealing some secrets that only you know, and then keep this with you. This is an important tool for data synchronization. According to Mobius, if successful, there may be some confusion between memories of the Elysian Realm and the real world. If failed, a backup will be activated within the Elysian Realm.
Oh, by the way, Hua, is she continuously deleting her own memories again?"
Suddenly, Bronie thought of Fu Hua. Although they hadn't interacted, she had played Fu Hua 3 before.
Back in the day, Bronie was also a fan of Jingwei. It's just that she was attracted by the Cyber Angel later on, and in the Cyber Arc City, she was left with a lot of psychological shadow by the boss of that gang, Fu Hua.
Every time she saw Fu Hua, she felt strange.
That's right, it's that kind of strange feeling as if the other party was about to beat her up.
"Hua deletes memories just to stay firm in her fight against the Honkai. She wants to maintain her determination. But recently, she has indeed been deleting less, thanks to your game."
Later, Su said that as long as they deleted their own memories, Mobius would recommend the game again.
But the pain was still somewhat unforgettable. Even though the memories were deleted, the pain in the muscles would resurface when she held the mouse again.
The main manifestation was palpitations.
In fact, the Flamechasers didn't want Fu Hua to keep deleting her memories every once in a while.
But since they were all too familiar with each other, they couldn't bring themselves to say it.
Because Fu Hua wasn't deleting memories for herself but for everyone in the Elysian Realm.
She considered herself an indecisive warrior who might do something terrible over time.
So she chose to delete her memories.
For data memory entities like her, super amnesia had no harm originally. As for Fu Hua, who had experienced fifty thousand years?
She had burned her own memories, leaving probably only the mission to fight against the Honkai and some methods to resist it.
So the data in the memory could indeed be crammed into Fu Hua's mind.
"I always feel like you're scolding me, but never mind. If it can make everyone remember, then the game we create has meaning. Whether the memories are good or bad, I'm quite happy."
"Meaning? Indeed, the game we create can be remembered by players, which in itself is meaningful. So, Bronie, is there anything else you need to explain?"
"Nothing else. I just feel like I've hit a bit of a bottleneck in my growth recently."
"Well, that's indeed a problem. I observed your battles with Kalpas before. Although there has been significant growth, it seems that the power is still lacking."
"In fighting games, patience is the highest level of martial arts, so my fighting style tends to be more inclined towards that style."
But it's almost the same.
But Bronie had always been like this, so Su thought it was normal.
But her experience might not necessarily be useful for Bronie.
"When you come back next time, I'll try to persuade Kevin to take action. Although he's not very good at teaching, he can accumulate a lot of experience in actual combat, right?"
Hearing this, Bronie also nodded.
The strongest warrior of the previous civilization under Finality, alone, could withstand everything and even transform into a succubus to control the power of Finality!
If she could have a few more rounds with such an opponent, in the future, Bronie might be able to sneak in a few moves when facing the real Kevin.
After all, in battles, things often change in an instant, so having a good sneak attack move is very powerful.
"But most importantly, I'm afraid of accidentally affecting myself with weapons of too much power. Now that things are almost settled, I think it's time to leave. I'll contact you soon."
"Leaving? Don't you want to stay here a little longer?"
When she heard that Bronie was leaving, Elysia couldn't sit still.
"No! Where did you come from?"
This startled Bronie. When did Elysia suddenly appear by her side?
Su looked at Elysia coming over and said that he had gotten used to Elysia's lively personality, but Elysia obviously didn't want Bronie to leave so soon.
Although they had played games with Bronie and even had a few fights like Bronie and Kalpas, Elysia was not satisfied with that. There were still many things she hadn't experienced, but Bronie was leaving the Elysian Realm.
Elysia knew that Bronie was usually busy, and once she started making games, she always tended to forget the time.
The world still had the Honkai, and Bronie was busy running around the world to resurrect everyone.
And Bronie also had an orphanage, full of lovely children, and Bronie could never leave them.
But the next time they met, how much would Bronie have grown?
Will it be more unfamiliar?
After all, time is such a merciless thing. It always makes people forget many things inadvertently and diminishes many feelings.
"Wherever there are beautiful girls, the pink fairy lady will accompany them, but if the beautiful girl decides to leave without saying goodbye, the pink fairy lady will cry!"
"I'm not planning to leave without saying goodbye. It's just that Mr. Su in the real world probably doesn't have much time left, so I need to make the most of it. And for us, immortality is not difficult. Although emotions may fade with the passage of time, we can still create new ones."
"Then let's make a promise!"
"What promise?"
"When you come back next time, you must spend more time with me!"
To be honest, how could Bronie not be moved?
Seeing Elysia's pitiful look, Bronie really wanted to turn into a plumber, visit Elysia's eternal paradise, and then fix the plumbing thoroughly!
"Well... when the children in the orphanage can be a little more self-reliant, I'll come right away."
"...That's true."
Elysia couldn't help but sigh. Why did Bronie have to open an orphanage for herself? Although the children inside were very cute, Elysia didn't mind getting along with everyone, but was this something a sixteen-year-old child should be doing?
"How's Miss Raven been lately?"
Suddenly, Elysia thought of something very important, that is, although Miss Raven is an important cadre of the World Serpent, she may be a little busy at times.
But if the Flamechasers made a request, would the World Serpent refuse?
So Elysia thought of a possibility.
Perhaps Miss Raven could take care of the children in the orphanage instead of Bronie!
"She's fine. She's still working hard for her villa island. But so far, the World Serpent seems to be a bit too busy for some reason..."
In order to lighten Bronie's burden of making money, Elysia not only did live broadcasts but also contacted Grey Serpent.
She said that Vill-V wanted to do some experiments and asked for more materials.
Grey Serpent worked very hard and even called Miss Raven over, making Miss Raven work tirelessly.
Actually, Elysia knew a little bit about the reason, but hearing this news from Bronie, Elysia felt even more guilty.
"Let's not worry about these things! If you have time, do you want to go to the garden with me? You rarely rest, right? Let me take you to relax a bit?"
"I'm sorry, Elysia. Didn't I say it before? This is something that needs to be completed urgently, and it's also a very important experiment. Forgive me for not being able to accompany you for too long. I'll make it up to you later!"
"Well~ I'll have to think carefully about what I want then! But Bronie definitely won't refuse the little dress I'm going to give you, right?"
"Uh... maybe not..."

It's very unfortunate that one cannot stay in the Elysian Realm for long, which is also very frustrating for Bronie.
Fortunately, this time when she went to the Elysian Realm, all of the Flamechasers had given her a Signet, even Aponia has given herself a Signet!
The effect is unknown, but for Bronie, it seems like she had become a bit more awesome!
As for where the awesomeness is, Bronie still can't say, but anyway, it's impressive!
As for the effects of the Signets, Vill-V is very familiar with it.
She even slightly modified the Signets to make it more smoothly integrated into Bronie's body.
However, the modification was not so obvious, and there were not so many things around Bronie to practice with.
With tears in her eyes bidding farewell to Elysia, Bronie set foot on the road to London, England.
Cosmic Juggernaut is located above the Thames River, resembling a very large locomotive.
Moreover, this locomotive is not all of Cosmic Juggernaut, as the real core of this Divine Key is still in Kevin's hands.
However, Cosmic Juggernaut still has some functions retained, at least when Bronie asked Vill-V.
Although at that time, Vill-V looked at herself strangely, wondering how she knew this information.
But Bronie still managed to get through it!
...
...
...
When she arrived in London and just got off the plane, Bronie saw a familiar figure.
"Although I have known for a long time that Europe is the territory of Schicksal, Rita, isn't your exercise a little far back at your headquarters?"
Seeing Rita's figure, Bronie immediately knew that her whereabouts had been exposed.
But Bronie didn't mean to directly conceal her whereabouts. After all, Otto was going to the Imaginary Tree, and Bronie also needed to touch the Imaginary Tree.
"Unfortunately, after losing track of you, Overseer cares very much about your safety. After all, your abilities, your knowledge, are treasures that are rare to all mankind. So after investigating your whereabouts, the Overseer sent me to visit you."
Of course, part of it is also because when Otto was establishing on what's Bronie's personality model is, he suddenly found that those restless little eyes often scanned Rita's legs and chest like a boy.
How should Otto say it, there are quite a few people like Bronie in Schicksal, so this behavior directly let Otto recognize it at a glance.
Oh my god! Is Bronie also raised within Schicksal!
Otto couldn't help but have these kinds of doubts, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't judge what kind of environment Bronie had lived in before.
Anyway, she's quite a complicated person.
"I'm fine, and there really isn't anyone in this world who can threaten my life safety. You don't need to bother the Overseer, uh... Is it really okay for you not rest?"
Bronie looked at Rita up and down who appeared a little tired.
Otto is really not human! Is there really no psychological burden for squeezing the Valkyries under his command!
"Of course there is no problem. If Miss Bunny has any needs, just say so. Mr. Otto just hopes that you can have further cooperation with Schicksal."
Hmm, she guess Otto felt something, right? Or maybe it was Void Archives who blew some pillow talk to Otto.
"Cooperation and the likes are not very urgent. After all, the premise of cooperation is that both parties have demands. And this time, I did report my activities to the police! I paid to reserve the area around Thames."
"Is it that Magic show, right? The greatest magic show of this century, with materials from the person called Vill-V?"
Rita also knew about this matter, Bronie apparently wants to do something in this crowded place.
If it's magic, will the Overseer believe it?
"That's right, Vill-V, the engineer of the previous civilization's Fire Moth. She is also the creator of the Divine Keys. Most of the many ruins found by Schicksal archaeology can be preserved because of her participation. She is a genius worthy of being respected and admired by all."
"Then... why isn't she here?"
"Of course, it's because of the Honkai. Uh, it appears that the police are all around, it seems that they received my report and intend to come to maintain order, but they haven't seen my figure after all, so they appear anxious?"
A light sentence because of the Honkai really made Rita feel uncomfortable.
According to the files and talk by Bronie, there are indeed Aeons in the universe, but the Honkai seems to have cut off everything.
So what is the Honkai?
How can the Honkai achieve this level?
And what did the Honkai bring to this world?
Whenever she thinks about these things, there is only a void in her mind.
How will we win against Honkai?
Rita silently observed Bronie's back.
After she said something to the police, she suddenly stood on the railing of the bridge, as if she was ready to jump off.
Police seemed to be prepared, while Rita just watched from a distance.
Is she acting like a street magician?
"Do you know, Rita? The reason Vill-V likes to perform magic is because she wants to show miracles to others and bring surprises to them. So she's the most lively scientist who always possess the most ingenious ideas."
Rita listened quietly to Bronie's words. The twin drills danced in the wind, and Rita saw a familiar drone.
Round and chubby, with decorations resembling bunny ears, the blue and white color scheme was very cute.
"I really like her magic, but I prefer to see some different expressions on you, like surprise beyond the calm and gentle smile you've always had!"
With a snap of her fingers, Bronie made the drone launched forward.
Then the space in front of it suddenly collapsed like building blocks, and something strange appeared abruptly!
Rita was stunned. If she wasn't mistaken...
There was a huge locomotive hovering above the Thames River!
Of course, there was something even more eye-catching.
A small, white figure, wielding a blazing sword. Just standing there emitted heat that could evaporate the river water. And the unique stench of the Thames River wafted over, making Rita frown.
"Authentication signal has been sent, please verify."
The ELF originally prepared to attack paused for a moment, its eyes flickering as if processing something.
"Verification passed, do you have any orders?"
"The Elysian Realm needs your help to maintain it. Recently, there has been a surge in memory data. Doctor Vill-V and Doctor Mobius have made significant progress in their experiments. Assistant Klein needs your help."
"I understand... But I am a combat-type ELF, not proficient in data processing..."
"Don't think I don't understand. Anyway, just stand there and don't move. I'll send you over now." With that, Bronie projected a panel and operated something on it.
Gradually, a magic circle-like thing appeared under the Kevin ELF, gradually enveloping it.
And with a strong flash, the ELF suddenly disappeared!
Then the locomotive kept transforming, shrinking until it turned into a palm-sized model, gently falling into Bronie's hand.
"Tell your Archbishop that if he bothers me again, I won't take him to touch the Imaginary Tree anymore. He should focus on researching his own Sea of Quanta plans and talk to me properly when he has results. Also, I value personal privacy, so if he continues to bother me, I'll retaliate directly on the network."
Seeing Rita's astonished expression, Bronie felt a bit proud.
Of course, even more surprised were the police who were watching nearby.
Bronie acted like a powerful martial artist, making unreasonable moves, attracting countless onlookers, and the police could only say this was a magic performance with a clear conscience.
This resulted in cheers, and Bronie quietly left the scene.
"Overseer..."
Rita's voice was full of grievances.
Why did Otto give her this task?
It always felt like she left a bad impression in Bronie's heart. Her training didn't manage to keep up to her either.
"I understand most of what you've encountered. I didn't expect Miss Bunny to actually know the specific location of the Second Divine Key. It seems she might have a somewhat similar purpose to mine?"
When Otto heard Bronie say she wouldn't take him to touch the Imaginary Tree, there was much more implied information.
"Sorry, Bishop, but it seems Miss Bunny has disappeared again."
"It's not your fault, it's just that my approach to Haxxor Bunny may have provoked her. I was testing her boundaries step by step, but I didn't expect her reaction to be so intense..."
This left Otto in distress. The Cosmic Juggernaut he had set his heart on had run away, and Bronie appeared to know his purpose!
"This should be a normal reaction. Overseer, after all, tracking and surveillance all the way from Egypt to London would indeed be unpleasant."
"But just one unpleasant encounter let me know what the other party is doing, right? To be honest, for me, this is also progress. This is a good thing, but Rita, you should come back. The exploration of the Quantum Sea can't be without you."
Otto called for Rita, then hung up the communication and rubbed his forehead in frustration.
"My old friend, the Cosmic Juggernaut is just gone like that. How can I borrow it from Haxxor Bunny?"
"Hehe, she mentioned Vill-V, which means perhaps the genius of the previous civilization has found a way to resurrect, ready to return from the past of death to the real world. The Cosmic Juggernaut is actually her work, and no one understands it better than her."
Void Archives naturally knew Otto's wish, and recently Otto's research direction had shifted from the Quantum Sea to the Imaginary Tree.
However, Schicksal's research on space-time was still too superficial, and the Second Herrscher' core from the previous era had produced the Divine Key, but there had been no news so far until now.
Who knows where Bronie suddenly emerged from, knowing everything? Hmm... Regarding light dust, ether information?
"So souls really exist? Maybe they are also recorded in the Imaginary Tree?"
"Void Archives doesn't know anything!"
Seeing Void Archives's unwillingness to say anything, Otto felt helpless.
She really didn't know anything, just some information about the genius. And this information about the genius might have been given by Bronie.
Well, Otto won't be able to sleep tonight, and he won't have the heart to play games either.
It's best to contact when there's a need, but Haxxor Bunny's behavior clearly indicates she wants to go solo.
What to do? How to make contact? Or he should use some forced measures against her?
When it came to matters regarding Kallen, Otto wouldn't be careless at all.
But Haxxor Bunny's mystery also disrupted all of Otto's plans.
In the past five hundred years, Otto hadn't experienced this being out of control, but this time he wouldn't regard Bronie as a mysterious child anymore.
She's an equally matched opponent. For Kallen, Otto is willing to sacrifice everything; it depends on whether his Schicksal can touch Haxxor Bunny's heart.
"Amber, activate all satellites to observe every corner of the earth. Since they have the Cosmic Juggernaut, there's no reason not to use it. Maybe we can observe some useful data."
"Overseer, abnormal gravitational waves detected, location... Sahara Desert, what should we do?"
What to do? Of course, contact Haxxor Bunny!
Otto felt mentally exhausted.
Haxxor Bunny, the Cosmic Juggernaut hadn't even warmed up, why did she suddenly activate it?
The activation of the Divine Key, won't it cause a disaster?
Although the Sahara Desert is indeed a wilderness, it's too conspicuous in the eyes of satellites!
Is this reasonable!?
...
"I occasionally wonder why in the process of battle, the strongest moves aren't used right away? Taking direct action can always seize the initiative. Hello, Mr. Su, I'm here to save you."
Activating the Divine Key, opening the navigation records inside, selecting the last usage record, it was easy for the Cosmic Juggernaut to bring Bronie into the Seed of Sumeru.
This was a bubble world created by Su himself, and he stayed in this bubble world, constantly observing other worlds on the Imaginary Tree.
However, this time, Bronie's arrival broke the silence of millennia.
"Hello, successor, it seems you must have gained everyone's approval in the Elysian Realm, so you found this hidden piece of information. But speaking of which, how did you know the location of the Cosmic Juggernaut?"
Although Vill-V had the same doubts, as Bronie never asked, and Su, seeing Bronie intrude alone and even authenticate through the Shamash ELF, was full of doubts.
As for the Elysian Realm, at most it served as a training ground, right?
Why did she directly receive everyone's recognition, and even learn so many hidden pieces of information?
"That's not important. After all, the Fairy of the Lake, King Arthur's legend, isn't investigating easy? In the Elysian Realm, Mobius has made new progress in researching resurrection, and since your body looks terrible, she plans to use it. And the Project Velaka should be over by now. There should be a way to deal with the Honkai."
"Already... there's a way?"
Su opened his eyes, staring at Bronie with goosebumps all over his body.
This meant Su has used his power right!
"It's useless, your abilities won't work on me. And as for the means to counter the Honkai, there is indeed one. The only difficulty is confirming the location of the Cocoon of Finality. It's over now; you should rest well, Mr. Su."
