Bab 153: Chapter 153: Summer Survival Fantasia?
The once calm sea gradually became treacherous, with huge waves threatening to overturn the yacht if it couldn't be kept head-on.
There was still nearly an hour's distance to Cioara's small island, but with waves crashing from all directions, the only option to save the yacht was to turn its bow.
"Wow~" Rosalia clung tightly to nearby fixtures, experiencing the alternating sensations of weightlessness and heaviness with the boat and the waves.
"D... Dangerous, Rosalia..."
"Anila, you don't get it. Isn't this just like a pirate ship project? And it's much more exciting than a pirate ship!"
At this point, Bronie had already released drones to monitor the surroundings from all angles.
Lightning gathered in the sky, turning what was once daytime into a semblance of night.
In such an environment, Bronie could only frown as she watched the yacht being pursued by the tasteless smile in the sky behind it. The turning speed of the yacht was clearly unable to keep up with the towering waves' assaults, but Bronie could still deploy drones to counter them.
It was obvious that Aha wanted to see her yacht sink completely. There was no other way.
"Bronya."
"What's up?"
Bronya was now controlling Project Bunny to secure the children, preventing them from being shaken into the sea.
But now she also noticed a small problem; it looks like the boat might not hold out much longer?
No, if it couldn't hold out, Bronie would have informed everyone in advance!
So, everything must be fine now; Bronie must have thought of a solution.
"Distribute these to everyone."
"What's this?"
"Underwater breathing devices. They allow users to breathe easily underwater. The issue of water pressure isn't solved yet, but as long as you don't dive below two hundred meters, it's fine. They also allow direct communication underwater. And there are ocean spheres to ensure the children float conveniently for me to find them."
"So, the boat is going to sink?"
Bronie never imagined that this little boat would actually flip this day. Why was this happening?
"It's hard to say. If the storm gets stronger, this boat will eventually flip. I should have gotten a ground-effect aircraft; then we could have reached our destination in ten minutes..."
"Wait, Sis Bronie, there's a small island over there!"
Whether it was a fortunate coincidence or there really should be a small island there, Bronya pointed in the distance, and amidst the surging waves, she could barely see a hint of green.
"We have no choice; let's head to the island!"
Judging by the distance, the island wasn't far from them, and most of the huge waves were coming from that direction.
So, the Aeon's target was likely that small island.
"Bronie..."
"Yeah?"
"Water... water spout..."
Following Bronya's direction, Bronie looked over and saw a waterspout rising from the sea at some point. The children exclaimed in surprise but were quickly drowned out by the thunderous rain.
"Alright, kids, hold onto whatever you can. I might have to make some rough maneuvers next!"
Bronie closed her eyes. She mentally constructed some thrusters used in aircraft, then crudely attached them to the sides of the yacht.
"Bronya, help me secure the thrusters."
"Can the boat handle..."
"Now is not the time to think about that, is it?"
"It is!"
Bronya could tell that the situation was indeed urgent now.
But what could have caused the storm to gather in the sky and produce such an exaggerated waterspout?
Even the mischievous Rosalia realized the severity of the situation and hurried to the cabin to find something to secure herself.
Then, the boat emitted a violent sound, as if some invisible monster were tearing it apart.
The yacht took off!
What followed was the anticipated disintegration of the yacht. It's fortunate that it wasn't the island exploding, right?
The drones towed massive foam balls, with the children inside.
As for Bronya?
Bronya was on Project Bunny's shoulders; after all, Project Bunny could fly, so it wouldn't be affected much on the sea. The only problem was the heavy rain, turning Bronie into a drowned rat.
Finally, the last bit of distance, Bronie's drones led the children to the beach. After the yacht shattered, as if heaven was playing a joke, the weather gradually cleared up.
"So, Sister Bronie, is this the surprise you mentioned?" Isabella looked quite aggrieved, as if she could imagine Bronie's excitement on the plane.
There's not much to say; it seems Bronie had anticipated this?
Although the ocean spheres are indeed fun, playing with them on the sea surface turns everyone inside into laundry in a washing machine, which isn't enjoyable.
Isabella emerged disheveled and immediately began to complain.
"Isabella, this maritime disaster definitely wasn't anticipated by Sister Bronie, maybe it's the Aeon."
"Huh?"
"Hey! Bronya, and Bronie, are you hiding something from everyone?"
Sin's feathers ruffled a bit. Concepts like the Aeon were mentioned by Bronie before. Although these things are very distant, these objective facts might provide new insights for the children in their future scientific work.
Initially, everyone thought these were just stories, as remote as the stars in the sky.
But who would've thought Bronie actually had contact with the Aeon?
"Elation... Aeon, theoretically one of the most powerful Aeons, Bronie's game was so outstanding that it caught their attention. This might just be a small... joke?"
Seeing Sin's aggressive stance, Bronya suddenly felt a sense of guilt.
Why?
Probably because of the deception.
Being complicit in deceiving everyone with Bronie.
"Normally, it's hard for one to define a Aeon's goodness or evilness, so I think ordinary people are better off not encountering Aeons. Bronya knew about the Aeon seeking me solely by accident... Hmm, I can't say for sure if it was truly an accident or if the Aeon deliberately created it."
Hearing Bronie's explanation, Sin was a bit sulky but still believed what Bronie said.
After all, an Aeon is a god. Bronie didn't tell everyone out of kindness, but what Sin was more afraid of was Bronie suddenly disappearing without explanation.
"Hmph, let's forget about this for now. Next time we encounter a Aeon, remember to tell everyone what's going on!"
"Instead of worrying about the Aeon, we should focus on the current situation."
Bronie hands on hips, surveyed the surroundings.
The whole island didn't seem like an uninhabited one; deep into the island, Bronie could still see walls.
Though these so-called walls seemed a bit strange, not like the conventional brick walls.
"Starfish~" Nina picked up a small starfish from the ground, as if she had found treasure.
"Wow!!!" Carefree, it seemed like they completely forgot about encountering a maritime disaster.
As for Seele?
Facing the sea, Seele had already been in a daze for a while now.
With many cement buildings on the pier, the boat swaying, and the beach along with the sea, this was the scene Seele had been eagerly anticipating.
The cold seawater washed over her feet, and the gentle wind brushed her cheeks. Although the current situation might not be as good as imagined, she had indeed come to the seaside, to the island.
"First, we need to ensure a water source. Without water, we'll die in three days, but with water and no food, we'll die in seven days. Bronya suggests that everyone prioritize finding water."
Among the children, Bronya tried to organize everyone to start a survival game.
Just as the children were gradually quieting down, Bronya was about to praise Bronie when she realized Bronie had already changed into swimwear, donned sunglasses, and even projected a lounge chair.
"Sister...Bronie?"
"Yeah? Everyone seems to be having so much fun, so let's play here for a while. Let's just have a barbecue party tonight. The fishing rods are over there. I've seen everyone's fishing skills are pretty good. You guys didn't go out to play when I wasn't home before, right?"
Bronie nodded silently, and then another dressing room appeared beside her.
When did this happen!?
"And, Bronya!"
"Yeah!?"
Suddenly Bronya shivered.
As expected, just as Bronie had anticipated, Bronie made a request.
"Help me apply sunscreen~"
Bronya's breathing became heavier, her eyes fixed on the sunscreen in Bronie's hand.
She slowly took it.
Then the ice-cold sensation spread from her palms.
"Mmm~"
Feels good!
"Bronie, are you going to apply sunscreen to Bronya later?"
"I want it too!"
Sin was filled with resentment; Bronya actually sneaked!
"I want it too!"
Always eager for excitement, Rosalia also joined in.
"Don't you have Lilia...?" Bronie couldn't help but quip.
"Lilia can do it anytime, but Bronie is different~ Lilia, aren't you coming?"
"You're right! Bronie, I want some too~"
Goodness, all the children surrounded her, all wearing new swimsuits and wanting sunscreen.
"Okay, okay, one at a time, don't rush, everyone..."
Bronie was quite helpless but also excited inside.
After all these years of nurturing, there was finally some payoff!
But the children are still too young, so Bronie naturally didn't have any other thoughts, but who doesn't like smooth, tender, and fair skin?
Anyway, Bronie was quite happy.
"Wow~ Is this paradise? Why is Bronie here on this island?"
Bronie suddenly got ambushed from behind, as a pink elf captured the adorable duckie!
"Oh no! Sister Bronya, Sister Bronie was suddenly caught by a pink monster!!"
Seeing the opponent's pointed elf-like ears, Rosalia hurriedly went to Bronya for help.
"What's this joke? This isn't the Elysian Realm. How could there be a pink elf and such...?"
"Hey~ Missed me, Bronie?"
Bronie was stunned.
Even the sunglasses on her face slid down her nose.
"Elysia, it's strange. You should be in the Elysian Realm. We were on a yacht with the children, encountered a storm, and arrived at this island. It's clearly so far away from the Elysian Realm."
"Although I don't know why~ But a mysterious person sent invitations to everyone, then suddenly there was an extra pier in the Elysian Realm, and everyone got boat tickets, saying they could go on vacation~"
"Hmm..."
Bronie rubbed her chin, pondering for a moment.
So, this is Aha's gift?
She took off her sunglasses and hung them around her neck.
"What about the others?"
"Don't know why, suddenly there was a storm, everyone encountered a maritime disaster, and don't know what to do. Although I'm also anxious, there's nothing I can do, right? That wall over there is obviously built by the owner of this island to prevent everyone from leaving a certain range."
"Yeah, energy machine guns, tracking missiles, infrared scanming, and Honkai fusion devices. Even if the machine guns can't do much harm to me, no one can guarantee the bombs won't explode. And why can't I see any sign of your anxiety?"
Looking at Elysia's cheerful appearance, Bronie couldn't help but reach out to try her.
And Elysia grabbed Bronie's hand.
"Hehe~ Caught you~ How about it, This beautiful Elysia, the real one is right in front of you~ Everything about me, my breath, is all real~"
As her hand was pulled to her face, Elysia was so close.
It's like... the beating of the heart could even shake the air, reaching her ears.
"Bronya doesn't believe in things without objective evidence, so please keep a certain distance from Bronya and Bronie."
Bronya stood up. Wary of Elysia in front of her, she even calling out Project Bunny.
"Wow, Elysia, why are there so many kids here? Wait, why is Project Bunny here? Bronie, why are you here!? Didn't we crash on a deserted island! What's going on!!!"
Pardofelis who changed into a swimsuit approached, and panicked upon seeing so many children.
Plus, Project Bunny's hostile aura.
Elysia awkwardly chuckled. "I don't know~ I thought this was the Elysian Realm, but what exactly happened now?"
Bronie didn't know what was going on, Elysia didn't know either, but Bronie's suspicion was indeed quite reasonable.
Of course, Elysia could feel Bronie's suspicion about whether she was real or not, probably not out of consideration for this part.
"Since we can't figure it out, let's not think about it. After all, we can't even know the ultimate answer of the universe. Why bother knowing why this is happening? Let's just focus on having a barbecue tonight. Come on, Elysia, let's eat something delicious tonight!"
"Wow!!!"

Bab 154: Chapter 154: Beach Holiday
Is Elysia real?
Is this important?
Bronie thinks it's not too important, actually.
If this is a game prepared by the Aeon, Bronie will complete it, and if all of this is real, Bronie will also enjoy it.
Cioara's island?
This place is enjoyable, not an island for contemplation!
"Hehehe, fishing in the canals of the big city before was my specialty. I see the environment on this small island isn't polluted at all. There must be plenty of good food! Can! Follow me~"
"Meow~"
Seeing Bronie project so much good equipment, Pardo's eyes seemed to light up. And as the children watched this cat girl bounce around, their eyes were full of curiosity.
"Bronya, your reaction just now didn't seem like you... No matter what, Elysia is also your teacher..."
"Um... Sorry, Sister Bronie. Bronya just feels... um... feels like there might be more important things to lose..."
Is Bronya so mature at such a young age?
To be honest, Bronie regrets letting Bronya play Cyberpunk 2077.
Maybe that thing really isn't suitable for children to play.
You know, in the main storyline, there are several girls or men that can be conquered, and among them, Judy can only be conquered by female characters, and Bronya just walked that path.
At that time, Bronie asked Bronya why she chose Judy. She said Panam was too rough, and the other characters were too greasy. Judy was slightly better.
But Bronya had already made up her mind a long time ago.
Judy was just a decoy, a hint.
Bronya sometimes wonder if Bronie understood.
Bronya didn't know, but Bronie fell into thought after hearing Bronya's words.
"Well, Elysia is actually a very good person. She's been very sincere from the beginning. If you always feel like she's saying something mysterious, pretending to be a bad person, actually, this is a little trick to attract people's attention."
"Hmm? Then why does Elysia like to be close to you so much?"
"Because I'm beautiful."
"Bronya didn't know that Sister Bronie was so narcissistic, although Bronya agrees with this statement..."
"No, that's Elysia's answer. Of course, there's a little specialness to it, specifically, it's probably related to my abilities."
Bronie shrugged. "She said I'm a miracle of the Sea of Quanta, carrying the weight of a world on my back. Maybe the core of a Bubble World is inside me. After all, my abilities are pretty powerful, right?"
"Every time Bronya suspects you're the Herrscher, you deny it."
"Because the Herrscher is still alive."
Then Bronya fell into a brief silence again, not knowing what to say.
Elysia always maintained a smile and was very good to the children. Everyone still knew Elysia somewhat, after all, she had appeared in online classes before.
Of course, even more famous should be in the internet, as Elysia was a video streamer, with a high output of videos.
It made people wonder if Elysia was sharing her entire daily life.
There's no way around it, Elysia is such a girl who likes to share.
"Remember to apologize."
"Um, sorry..."
"Not to me."
With that, Bronie looked at Elysia.
Seeing Bronie's gaze, Elysia also immediately looked at Bronie, then waved to Bronya.
Elysia wonders how Mobius and Vill-V are doing now. If all of this is true, they must not miss this opportunity to come out and study their bodies and plan for future resurrections.
"Okay."
Bronya realized her mistake. The competition between herself and Elysia should never be conducted in this way.
It's just that she's at a disadvantage in terms of age, and she has a kind of uneasy feeling about what the future will be like when she grows up.
But now that everything has come to this, let's go for it!
"Right..."
"Hush~"
Elysia saw Bronya approaching and reached out, placing a finger on Bronya's lips.
"You don't need to apologize, because you haven't truly understood what real love is yet. But it's okay, lovely Elysia will help you understand. Then we can all get along friendly, isn't that creating paradise?"
"Real... love?"
Bronya's mind was full of question marks, while Elysia just winked playfully.
"Before, it was all about teaching, and Bronya's little sister only had eyes for Bronie, so next, we should really get to know each other well~ Let's just consider it as making amends~"
Cunning, too cunning!
Bronya never expected Elysia to use this kind of tactics!
Damn, she shouldn't have been so impulsive earlier!
As for Elysia's mention of real love?
To be honest, Bronya didn't really understand.
Although the internet is advanced and a lot of information can be obtained online, when Elysia mentioned this question, Bronya's heart was filled more with doubt and confusion.
"If it's something too excessive, Bronya will refuse to execute it."
"It's nothing~ mainly..."
Elysia's gaze shifted towards nearby.
Bronya followed her gaze.
Something seemed to be approaching in the sea, a huge black shadow stirring up huge waves on the surface.
"Honkai beasts!?"
"Yeah, infected marine creatures with Honkai abilities! Let's protect our family well and go together!"
If it's a battle, Bronya would never refuse.
But why would Honkai beasts suddenly appear by the sea?
Could it be that these marine creatures encountered something in the sea?
Different from Honkai beasts emerging from the ground, Wild beasts infected by Honkai harbor a strong hostility towards humans.
Honkai can provide them with new powers, and those harmed by them will become zealots.
In the past, in times when technology wasn't so advanced, these Honkai beasts were often called demons or monsters.
Project Bunny punches one Honkai beast after another. And Elysia, with her graceful ease, shoots arrows from her longbow, each arrow filled with effects.
"No, Elysia, in the Elysian Realm most of it's data, so Bronya understands why attacks have effects. But why do battles in the real world also have so many effects?"
"It's all part of girls' magic~" Elysia teased, leaving Bronya with even more question marks.
Magic?
Girls?
Aren't you fifty thousand years...
"..."
"..."
Bronie once said that some things don't need to be understood too clearly, knowing too much isn't good.
Now Bronya probably understands what that means.
"Oh, it's running away? I thought we could play with them a bit more~"
It seems that beasts infected by Honkai,l also have some rationality. They instantly chose to flee when faced with unknown power.
...No, are these really Honkai beasts and not something else?
"You call this playing?"
"Oh, it's just a little warm-up, and these beasts don't seem as formidable as imagined. They've just been enhanced a bit by Honkai. It's a pity we didn't keep a few, otherwise we'd have dinner ready~"
"Uh... can we eat those things?"
"For a MANTIS like you, this kind of food won't have any effect on your body. For ordinary people, it's definitely toxic. If Dr. Mobius were here, she should be able to distinguish what's edible, and if it were my former apprentices, they should be able to tell too?"
Fu Hua appeared out of nowhere.
With her swimsuit on, Fu Hua gave the impression that her figure wasn't as bad as one might think.
Hmm...
That's true, if Fu Hua had Book of Fuxi by her side, and after getting the nutrition, her body should be able to recover, right?
Because she was worried, Bronie was observing Elysia and Bronya's battle not far away. As for when Fu Hua came over, Bronie didn't notice at all.
"Hey~ Hua~"
Seeing Fu Hua's arrival, Elysia quickly greeted her.
"Yeah, it's been a while, Elysia. It seems this meeting isn't a coincidence. Someone must have deliberately guided us here, and you two are supposed to be data memories, but now you're actually here in front of me, which means..."
Fu Hua looked at Bronya who was pretending to sunbathe nearby.
"The work of the Aeon, right?"
"You're using your detective experience from when you were a detective in London, huh? Why not ask someone with Fenghuang Down for help?"
"Sorry, I'm not the kind of person who uses Fenghuang Down casually, unless it's an emergency."
"I think you should consider using Fenghuang Down more, because you've spent the most time with Fenghuang Down, I think you're most likely to gradually transform into a new life form during your long association with Fenghuang Down. In this way, you won't have to worry about losing your memories in the future."
"This... new life form?"
"Like memes, information, ether, no longer bound by external things, absolute freedom, eternal life, as long as someone remembers you, you will never die."
"This sounds like the Herrscher~"
Elysia also listened to Bronya's words and looked at Fu Hua.
She didn't expect Fu Hua to have the potential to become that kind of person. If Mobius knew about it, Fu Hua would probably spend a year or two on the operating table again?
"Yes, it sounds like the Herrscher, so I think it's a pity."
"But can I, in that state, really be called... human?"
"Hehe, I'm familiar with this one!"
Elysia raised her hand, leaving Fu Hua bewildered.
"Mobius once said that the Project Stigma is a plan to redefine what it means to be human. As long as you think you're human, then no matter how you evolve, you'll always be human. It's a form of identification! It's just like a question I once struggled with..."
Elysia once knew that she was definitely not human, but she wanted so much to become human.
So she traveled the world, formed bonds, met companions, but she couldn't overcome the final hurdle.
Because she also deceived them to some extent, not telling them that she was a Herrscher.
But after she opened up later, Elysia also let go of her heart.
It's just a pity that everything ended after that.
"That's about it, but your judgment isn't wrong. The power of The Elation, I'm not sure about the specifics, but since it's difficult to resist now, why not enjoy this holiday?"
"But even if you say that..."
Fu Hua felt a bit embarrassed.
Indeed, she came here with an invitation, specifically for a vacation, and the invitation was written by Elysia.
At the time, Fu Hua went with the idea of who would play such a prank, although she did ask Elysia in advance if she wanted to go on vacation to an island.
And what was the result?
Elysia said it was to the Elysian Realm!
While one side was preparing for a party in the Elysian Realm, the other side with Bronie and the children was als preparing for a party, and she was investigating the location of the invitation, and casually mentioned it to Otto.
So many coincidences converging, probably only an Aeon can do this, right?
Aeon, it's really a miraculous thing.
"Sister Bronie, you should pay attention to finding food. With thirteen people in total, Bronya is worried that if it's only you, Pardo, there might be a shortage of manpower. Bronya will consider using Project Bunny to blast fish directly."
"Hey hey hey! Blasting fish is prohibited! I once tried electric fishing in the canals in the city, and of course, there were a lot of fish at the beginning, but later, I couldn't catch any!"
When Pardo heard about blasting fish, she was suddenly on edge.
"But... if we don't do this, even if you catch a lot of fish, you'll end up with nothing..."
"Why? Didn't I catch a lot of fish? Look... Can!!"
Just as Pardo was about to show off the fish in her bucket, she found that there was not a single fish left inside!
And the culprit, naturally, was the Can accompanying Pardo!
"Meow~"
Can was caught by the neck of fate, and now the bucket was empty.
With all the good equipment and all the fish caught being eaten by Can, if we don't find food properly next, everyone might go hungry tonight~
"It seems, out of urgent consideration, Bronie really needs to consider using blasting fish to get food. This is something that must be done out of necessity..."
"Don't, don't do that! Look at all this equipment, don't we still have time to fish? As long as we're together, with everyone holding a fishing rod, two fish per person should be enough to eat!"
"But Pardo, you should also consider that some people may not be able to catch fish, and there may not be enough bait."
"Uh... it's okay, I can go to deeper waters..."
Just as Pardo was still insisting on protecting the environment while trying to get food, and arguing with Bronie, a mysterious golden card floated down from the sky.
"Huh? What's this?"
Players have accumulated five hundred points, automatically unlocking the next area, you can exchange corresponding supplies with points, everything you need is available~
As Pardo picked it up and was about to speak, the area on the beach that was originally separated by a fence gradually opened up with vibrations.
Bronie slowly approached where the fence used to be, pointing to another area of the beach.
"It seems like there's a vending machine ahead, maybe we can exchange some supplies from there with points."
