Bab 131: Chapter 131: To fight the Honkai, Bishop, Please Abdicate!
The phrase "heart palpitations" Bronie heard wasn't actually the accelerated heartbeat she expected. Bronie couldn't help but feel annoyed that Durandal appeared so indifferent, especially when she had feelings for Rita.
Why didn't she have the same feelings for other girls? Could it be that the Kaslana's yuri genes hadn't awakened yet!? Or was it that only companionship was the longest confession?
However, Rita was far ahead in this regard.
Thinking of this, Bronie couldn't help but sigh and then continued the battle. Holding the long spear made for her younger sister, it clashed with Durandal's spear.
The long spear made from Soulium excavated by the Schicksal in the Mariana Trench clashed with the flashy gear-like long spear, bursting into fierce sparks.
This scene made Durandal frown.
Her weapon was the pinnacle of Schicksal's technology, so how could it be inferior?
Seeing the flawless long spear after the collision left Durandal puzzled. It was like a high-tech weapon colliding with a handmade one, yet the handmade one emerged unscathed, leaving her perplexed.
But the pace of battle didn't allow Durandal to dwell on these questions too much.
Bronie's elegant and precise combat stance with the long spear showcased her versatile style. Durandal began to doubt if she had been slacking off during her training at the Schicksal headquarters.
After all, Bronie claimed to be just a game producer. How could a game producer be such a skilled fighter?
And this long spear... whether it was an illusion or not, there appears to be a strong recoil force every time it collided.
"I said you can't fight yet this!"
Even with a broad mind, Durandal couldn't stop Bronie's agile movements. Watching Bronie teleport and disappear from time to time, she resembled a quantum shadow..
"This combat ability is actually learned from someone's hands. I can only perform like this. If it were you, you could definitely do better. Haven't you noticed?"
"Noticed what?"
"Noticed that this long spear isn't as simple as it seems!"
The sharp spear suddenly accelerated, and Durandal instinctively blocked it.
But after the long spear was blocked, Bronie swiftly changed her move, slashing Durandal's fragrant shoulder.
Then, another force struck, causing Durandal to notice that the blood flowing from her pierced shoulder seemed to float in the air as if it had lost gravity.
No, it should be said it was in slow motion.
Temporal fracture?
No, it wasn't like that.
Durandal had encountered Schicksal's a
Space-Time fracture system quite often, and this clearly wasn't the same.
Watching Bronie's figure accelerate again, Durandal used up her remaining strength to block for the last time. But this time, the long spear slipped from her hand, and even her combat stance couldn't hold steady. Then the long spear, like a dragon, aimed straight for her throat.
Upon closer inspection, Bronie had almost no injuries on her body.
"While you're still young, I'll take this opportunity to bully you a bit. You still have a lot of room to grow in the future. Let's end this match here."
The strength of the spear was impressive. Made while kept the Roman Cancel effects in the Guilty Gear in mind, it brought many surprises to Bronie in battle.
Whether it was the Roman Cancel during defense, which will send the opponent flying, or the sudden cancelation during an attack, it was extremely powerful in battles against both humans and Honkai Beasts.
Of course, a more powerful spear wouldn't be suitable for Sin or Anila. After all, Sin was just a seemingly fragile girl. Bronie made the long spear to provide both with a self-defense weapon when she was outside.
A weapon too powerful without the ability to use it would only harm the user.
"Thanks for the match."
Seeing Bronie no longer interested in fighting, Durandal also came to her senses, and the battle had ended.
Looking at Bronie's outstretched hand with mixed feelings, Durandal grabbed it and stood up.
Then, she followed Bronie back to the orphanage.
She still felt a sense of unreality, but her injuries still faintly aching were constantly reminding Durandal of her failure.
"Sorry, Miss Jingwei, my Valkryie Battlesuit may..."
Upon returning, she saw Fu Hua holding Fuxi coming out. Upon seeing her, Fu Hua wore a worried expression, and Durandal felt unexpectedly cherished.
Yes, now Durandal looked quite miserable. All her Valkryie Battlesuit had turned into fragments, hanging on her body with only sports underwear, and her almost mature but still young fruit was more conspicuous than Fu Hua's.
"Victory and defeat are common in warfare. You just need to remember this failure and strive to move forward."
"In fact, the Valkryie Battlesuit was just hacked by me, it didn't have not much damage. Let's end it here. After unlocking the data, your Valkryie Battlesuit will naturally restore itself."
At this point, Seele nearby took out a medical kit and began to apply iodine to Durandal's wounds.
"I see... I'll talk to the Overseer about being vigilant against the possibility of the Valkryie Battlesuit being hacked, although most Honkai Beasts wouldn't have that ability."
"In the previous era, after the birth of the 12th Herrscher, it manipulated nuclear bombs and launched it at the last three shelters of the previous era. Otto should be aware of this."
"Ah!?"
Durandal was slightly stunned, then the pain from the iodine application on her wound made her tremble involuntarily.
"Sorry, I accidentally hurt you..."
"No, that's just a reflex, and your actions are very gentle, it's not that painful."
Seeing Durandal's gentle smile, Seele's heart fluttered.
Bronya became nervous and hurried to Seels's side.
Well, it seems that Bianka's flirting skills are not active, but passive. Perhaps this is the result of the Kaslana lineage combined with the Schariac lineage?
Seeing this, Bronie felt speechless.
Well, let the kids do as they please, as long as they don't start fighting each other or killing each other.
Although Durandal is usually dull, she is honest and clear-headed about many things.
After all, even in the Schicksal headquarters, Durandal has many little fans, so she had to be prepared for the possibility of this situation when she let Bianka into her orphanage.
It just came a bit suddenly, and Bronie was a bit unable to accept that all of this was the result of herself because she left injuries on Durandal.
But fortunately, the gold goalkeeper Bronya was working hard to block Durandal's passive attacks!
Then, the usually timid Nina expressed her desire to become a Valkyrie the next day.
Goodness, besides coming here to fight, does Durandal also have a recruiting task?
Bronie immediately stated that she would not allow the children to have contact with Schicksal under any circumstances unless Otto no longer served as the Archbishop of Schicksal.
Because Otto is really capable of anything, maybe he will use the children to threaten her into working for him.
At that time, Durandal wanted to directly refute Bronie, but then Bronie slapped her face with a bunch of information.
The actual combat situation of the Second Honkai and the fact that the Immortal Phoenix was throughly used by Otto to explore the so-called Honkai God were all thrown out.
The losses caused by the Second Honkai shouldn't have been so great. It was all because Otto insisted on sending Sirin to the moon, which caused a disaster.
And Fu Hua lost her good disciple. But at that time, Fu Hua had already used the 1st power of Fenghuang Down, burning her brain and falling into a coma.
At that time, Durandal was full of disbelief, but with the documents from AE and Schicksal, all the confidential information was revealed.
From a logical point of view, it was indeed highly credible.
Coupled with Tesla and Einstein's accusations against Otto, the issues with the former First Herrschers, and Edison's affairs, Otto's once glamorous figure appeared to have changed somewhat in front of Durandal.
Later, Bronie said that Schicksal indeed made significant contributions to fighting the Honkai, and she also agreed with Schicksal's ideology of fighting for all the beauty in the world. It's just that Otto is not trustworthy.
In order to prevent more children from being fooled into joining Schicksal, Bronie endured for three days before throwing Durandal out.
There was no choice, Durandal always pestered her for combat advice, didn't she? Or always wanted to get some equipment from her, so that when put into Schicksal, it could be researched and mass-produced, and then used to fight the Honkai.
Bronie was also soft-hearted and couldn't help but give her a device specifically for battlefield treatment.
This thing was transformed from Mobius' design, with contributions from Vill-V.
It was actually nano-healing solvent, which could ensure that Valkyries could retain their lives on the battlefield even after suffering fatal injuries. Otto deserved to die a thousand times, but Schicksal's Valkyries were different.
After all, they were also frontline fighters, and it felt pitiful if they died.
So out of care for the Valkyries, Bronie came up with this technology and also said that they were working on solving the issue of the artificial stigmata's damage to Valkyrie's bodies.
Perhaps retired Valkyries wouldn't have to die directly at forty, and there might be hope for a normal lifespan.
Durandal was also aware that this was the best gift for Schicksal, if Otto was really as Bronie said, he had done so many terrible things.
When Otto was living in the orphanage with her, as the attending physician, he told her stories about Medea and also said that if he were discovered to be similar with Medea, please don't sympathize with him.
If this was true, then everything made sense.
However, Durandal kept this matter to herself and left the orphanage with Fu Hua.
Of course, on the way back to Schicksal, there was also a lively ELF named Book of Fuxi. She was like an old mother circling around Fu Hua, caring about this and that, and especially taking care of Fu Hua's diet.
Fu Hua's surroundings gradually became lively, and Durandal noticed that Fu Hua's smile had increased a bit.
Well, the Fu Hua she had seen before was always dull and cold, as if she had a very heavy mission weighing on her.
And after Fuxi became lively, Fu Hua appeared to relax a lot.
Teacher Haxxor is really a mysterious person to Durandal.
She was always very cheerful, and she also had a very clear goal in her heart. The games she produced were popular, and her combat power was extraordinary. It gave people a feeling of omnipotence.
Even the problem of the Bubble World on her body, she could accurately provide solutions, although it was quite troublesome to implement. It still had to rely on the power of the Herrscher of the Void, or directly find the Second Divine Key, Cosmic Juggernaut.
"Welcome back, my old friend, and Bianka."
Back at Schicksal headquarters, Mr. Otto immediately came to greet them, giving off a very dignified aura.
"Sorry, Bishop, I still lost. This time, whether it was normal combat or close combat, I lost. My Valkryie Battlesuit was hacked by Haxxor Bunny and lost its original functions."
"You even lost in close combat?"
Hearing Durandal's report, Otto was obviously a bit surprised. If the Valkryie Battlesuit was hacked, it meant that there wasn't much data left, so he could only rely on Durandal's report to judge what methods Haxxor Bunny used.
"I even lost in close combat."
"That's really... impressive." Otto didn't know what else to say. Perhaps there really are geniuses like this in the universe, and he was lucky enough to meet this genius.
"So, old friend, what do you think?"
"Regarding Haxxor Bunny's determination to fight against the Honkai, there is no doubt, and everyone in Elysian Realm trusts her very much, she is also a good person."
"Yes, a good person."
A good person. So after knowing his situation, how would she treat him?
Otto's mood became complicated. After repeatedly testing Haxxor Bunny, he had a deeper understanding of what kind of person she really was.
Otto couldn't stand it when things were not under his control. Because when variables appeared, his goals might encounter a lot of obstacles. Otto had a very clear awareness of himself, usually for the sake of achieving his goals, he would often choose a easier and more convenient shortcut.
As everyone knows, the most profitable methods are all written in the law, and for the sake of achieving his goals, Otto would often do heinous things which good people couldn't stand.
Moreover, there's The Elation meddling along the way...
Otto felt even more anxious, and then Durandal asked a question that made Otto's blood pressure rise even more.
"By the way, Overseer, when do you plan to retire, and who will be the next Archbishop?"
Goodness, Haxxor Bunny must have told Bianka something!
Could it be that in the future, Bianka will say even more outrageous things! Such as 'For the sake of all humanity, for the sake of fighting the Honkai, Overseer, please abdicate!'

Bab 132: Chapter 132: Invitation from the theMasked Fool's Tavern
After Bianka returned to Schicksal with Fu Hua, Otto expressed a minor protest to Bronie.
After all, Bronie had spoken ill of Otto in front of Durandal, so Otto had the right to protest.
But he never denied the wrongdoings he had committed so Bronie just brushed off his protests.
In any case, neither side could do much to the other. Bronie had simply unveiled Otto's true nature beforehand, so even if he did ultimately become Medea, what else could be said? It could only be said that he died well, with a few words of praise at the funeral, followed by a drink or two at Anti Entropy's party, and finally a few words with Tesla.
To be honest, Bronie was more interested in the current game plan than in Otto's nonsense.
This time, the game Bronie made was called "Outer Wilds," a puzzle story set in space.
If you were familiar with the game, you could complete it in no more than ten minutes, but if you truly explored it, it could take about fifty hours.
Bronie made the game entirely by herself, and Bronya occasionally came to check on the progress, but Bronie said that to avoid affecting the gaming experience, it was better not to come and see, otherwise, the game would lose a lot of its fun.
Bronya was full of doubts, but she could only wait patiently.
Later, Rosalia and Lilia also released the game "Just Dance" under the name of the orphanage.
The copyright for the songs was handled by Cioara, while the choreography was done by Eden, Cioara, and others.
Bronie could understand that Eden could dance, but it was a bit hard to imagine Cioara dancing.
Although Miss Raven claimed that this was a necessary skill to learn when doing mercenary missions, Bronie couldn't help feel a bit skeptical.
Miss Raven cut off contact with Bronya right after and said that learning choreography was really just for infiltration.
There was an obvious feeling of her trying to cover up something which made Bronie quite amused.
After some twists and turns, it was already the second half of 2012.
The existence of the Genesis System provided everyone in the orphanage with an opportunity to freely express themselves.
But even with this opportunity, it was quite difficult to create a real game for them.
If it weren't for Bronie's experience in making games, "Just Dance" wouldn't know how long it would be delayed.
And most of the children lost their enthusiasm, and the main production of the game fell on Bronya.
But there was no other way, they couldn't put such a flop game under the name of Haxxor Bunny, could they?
In this way, Haxxor Bunny's reputation would really be tarnished, and whenever some games were mentioned in the future, people would complain about "Just Dance."
So, in order to prevent her Sister Bronie from being criticized on the internet and to avoid leaving a stain on her perfect resume, Bronya decided to bear it all.
Then Bronya's first game hit the streets...
They spent a lot for copyright issues and even spent a lot of money.
There was money from Bronie, from Cioara, and of course, Bronya also invested some money.
But it still did poorly.
Fortunately, the people from Schicksal and AE still gave some help and recommended the game to some rehabilitation centers and sanatoriums, allowing the patients inside to stretch their bodies a bit.
So this game reluctantly couldn't be considered a total loss.
The main loss was still the copyright issue.
With the Genesis System developed by Bronie, the cost of making games was reduced to a terrifying level.
This resulted in very few employees in the Haxxor Bunny Studio who were actually engaged in game development work, with the vast majority working in promotion and bug fixing.
Specifically maintaining games like Apex, Elden Ring, and the Titanfall.
There were also a few people responsible for developing DLCs for games, but Bronya didn't choose to provide the Genesis System to them.
After all, Bronie felt that for today's human society, the Genesis System was a bit too advanced, and their ability to keep it secret was worrying. When it was released, a bunch of capitalists smelling the scent would cause trouble all day long. To be honest, it was quite annoying to deal with.
Although there were rumors on the internet that Haxxor Bunny had mastered an efficient way of making games, as long as Bronie didn't admit it, and no news was released, all speculations couldn't become reality.
Just as Bronie was hesitating whether "Just Dance" was a flop or a money maker, Bronie started to release new trailers online.
...
The familiar Haxxor Bunny Studio logo appeared.
After that, the deep giant star hung high in the sky, and you could still see the explosion happening around the huge alien space station above the deep giant star.
Looking down, a chubby alien, resembling a diver began to play the banjo.
And our protagonist holding a stick with marshmallows on the end slowly caramelized them over the fire in front of them.
After putting the marshmallows into his mouth, the protagonist turned and left, walking past the entrance, where his spaceship was being sucked into the sea full of waterspouts.
Without hesitation, the protagonist plunged into the waterspout, following the footsteps of his spaceship.
Next came the deep and desolate space, with various planets and ships flying into the sun.
Exploration always comes with danger, but the various bizarre scenery also makes people unable to help but stop and stare. However, with the explosion of the protagonist's ship, everything returned to the scene of roasting marshmallows by the campfire and gazing at the stars.
The banjo began to play again, sounding so lonely.
Exploration, puzzles, and the unique melody of the banjo made it seem like Bronya was presenting a whole new piece of art to netizens.
["The will to trailblaze can start with a game."]
In the final ending, Bronya left this sentence as a conclusion.
Those who know what an Aeon is also understand that Haxxor Bunny is trying to goad people into the Paths.
However, those who know Aeons also know that the Aeon Akivilli is already dead, and no one knows what will happen when they step into their Path.
["Bronie! Bronie! My favorite Bronie! Look at what game you've made! A game centered on the will to explore!? Why not make a fun game! Aha, how embarrassing!"]
After releasing the game online, Bronie prepared to take a break first and then play the game with Bronya later.
But Aha's voice suddenly sounded in her ear, startling Bronie.
"When the will to explore becomes a game, isn't that the most adventurous fun?"
["Haha! Aha loves your explanation! And Aha loves the little sprite that secretly blew up the spaceship in Dark Bramble! It reminds Aha of the time when Aha blew up the Astral Express!"]
Well, that answer was acceptable too. If Aha wasn't happy, who knows if they would blow up the Elysian Realm.
"As long as you're happy."
What else could Bronie say?
["Aha is definitely happy, and of course, Aha brought a gift. Aha is going to play games now, so I won't stay here!"]
After speaking, a gift box fell from Bronie's desk.
Looking at the tightly wrapped gift box, Bronie dared not breathe heavily for fear.
What to do now?
First, take the gift box to a place where no one was around, and then open it by hand.
Bronie slowly untied the ribbon on the gift box and then gently lifted the lid.
Inside, there was another gift box.
Very much in the style of the Elation.
Bronya patiently continued to untie the ribbon and opened the lid again.
Another gift box!
After unpacking thirty gift boxes in a row, Bronie's heart was almost numb, and finally, the gift box shrank from the size of a host computer to the size of a palm.
Just as Bronie's patience was about to disappear, she finally managed to open the gift box.
Like a compressed file, as soon as the gift box was opened, a cute bunny mask popped out, and under the mask, there was a note.
["The Tavern always welcomes your arrival, sisters watched by the Lord of Elation. Put on the mask and come to Epsilon. Here you will find everything you want to see. All brothers and sisters of the tavern are happy to share the fun they see! PS: The game is well done, make more!"]
Okay, I didn't expect someone to urge for updates across the universe.
This made Bronie somewhat amused, but Bronie suspected that there must be Aha among the members of the tavern. Otherwise, how could the invitation from the tavern be delivered to her?
The Aeon has its divine side, but also its mortal side. According to Bronie's understanding, the mortal side of the Elation is probably more prominent.
And an Aeon who values the process, how could they not choose to participate in this great drama of saving the world?
So Bronya suspected that Aha must have incarnated as a mortal, but she didn't know where they were wandering in this world. Maybe when the final battle begins, they will participate in a very reasonable identity.
Reasonable enough that she might only realize it at the end.
But after thinking for a long time and not coming up with a result, Bronie was too lazy to bother about it.
Bronie also checked the mask again. In essence, this thing was just a mobile phone. Apart from covering one's identity when worn on the face, it also had an identity verification function.
The so-called The Tavern probably had a very close connection with Elation, and everyone inside probably walked on the Path of Elation.
But was she walking on the Path of Elation herself?
Forget it, she is too lazy to think about so many things, and the most important thing is that the people in the Elation Tavern probably didn't realize that there is no signal under the Cocoon of Finality!
Even the influence of the so-called Interastral Peace Corporation did not reach here, which also proved that the Akivilli had never been here.
So now the mask was just a mask, without any additional functions.
But it is said that the Genius Society can reproduce things like the Synthesia Beacon based on the original data, which can break through any language barriers and make communication between different civilizations in the universe easy.
Bronie thought that maybe that thing could be installed on this mask.
Later, after putting on the mask, Bronie realized that she needed to be connected to the internet and even buy VIP!
How unexpected.
But it's quite reasonable, but Bronie doesn't have the currency issued by the Interastral Peace Corporation, so recharging and the like are even more ridiculous.
So what now?
Just keep the mask as a souvenir, pretending it's a mask of the Shadowkahn Legion, and tell the children in the orphanage a story about the 12 Talismans.
Bronie looks forward to the day when a curious child sneaks to get the mask and then gets scared by the program she set!
Bronie calmly returned to the orphanage, estimating that Bronya was now playing the new game in her room.
"Sister Bronie! You can come in directly."
Bronie knocked on Bronya's room door, and Bronya responded directly, but Bronie still felt that she should give Bronya a little more privacy.
"Have all the games been downloaded? Have you got the launch keys?"
"Yes, Bronya has completed the newbie tutorial, but Bronya never expected that the sun in this game only has twenty minutes of life left, so is the sun above our heads also finite?"
For Bronya, the idea that the sun has a small lifespan is quite novel. At least until now, Bronya has never heard of such thing.
"All things come to an end, nothing lasts forever. But don't worry, by the time the sun's life is over, our Earth's environment will no longer be suitable for survival, and by then, the humans on Earth have already left the solar system and will be searching for their new homes in the universe."
Bronie didn't expect Bronya to have already played through one round so quickly.
Now Bronya is controlling her character to enter the spaceship and look at the ship's log.
There are many instructions on it, giving many puzzles, as long as one completes them one by one, the whole story's outline will gradually become clear, eventually forming a complete story.
Because the game itself is not very large, Bronya also made DLCs as a bonus and sold them together with the main game.
But one must complete the first playthrough to have the opportunity to unlock the DLC.
After all, the DLC is very closely related to the main storyline.
"So... is our goal to save the sun?"
Bronya has many doubts in her mind. Although this universe feels a bit lacking in authenticity, Bronya can feel the loneliness in that universe.
When Bronie left her room, Bronya could muster more courage to explore this universe.
Sitting alone on the spaceship, looking at the entire solar system in confusion, while the sun is about to explode in twenty minutes, and she can't find a solution.
And more importantly, why did she reincarnate twenty minutes ago, she has no idea at all.
"To save it? Let's explore slowly. I'll accompany you. After all, the beginning of exploration is always a bit lonely, but with each encounter, there will always be some bonds left behind. So don't fear the future, there are many interesting places in the universe!"
