"Welcome to the Theater of Domination." Chapter 127 Episode 9 Ends "Did you come to me, or did I come to you?" Green's hoarse voice echoed in the empty darkness. "After reading your own memories, I think you should have an idea." The curtain lights suddenly came on, illuminating the judgement seat. Taxue stood on the high platform of the judgement seat, looking down at Green. "How's it going? Do you want to watch the next part?" The puppet was silent for a long time, and finally showed a self-deprecating smile. He turned his stiff neck and raised his hands. "No need. With you guys around, those memories are probably quite boring." Countless threads hung down from above, gradually wrapping around Green's outstretched hands. "I just want to know one thing. Can my parents really become what they used to be?" "That's natural. This is part of the deal. They will live a healthy and disaster-free life and won't have any financial problems." "……Thanks."
"If I'm not mistaken, you could have just pulled me into this space. Why did you give me the choice?" "It's simple, because the owner of this theater was once the same as you." "Life is but a walking shadow, a clumsy fool who appears for a moment on the stage and then quietly leaves without a trace, full of sound and fury, but without any meaning." "In this world of comings and goings, he is your shadow. In this theater, you will be his fools." "So that's how it is." Green suddenly laughed crazily, "So that's how it is. We are all just puppets tangled with strings." He suddenly raised his head, not looking at Taxue, but looking at the darkness above his head. "Turn everyone into your shadow, and let every fool dance in this absurd world, ruling god." Hey! The hammer struck and everything returned to calm. The melodious howls of wolves and the soft bleating of sheep sounded at the same time, dragging the existence named Green away. What remains in the theater is not a wooden puppet, his heart is still beating and his breathing is still continuing. This is a new kind of puppet, or [living puppet]. He was not a puppet constructed from a filthy core like the other puppets, but a living being of flesh and blood. Moreover, after being chosen by the Lamb Spirit, no two beings were born because his soul had been taken away by the hungry wolf. This new body is still a puppet, and can also be shaped, but it is not tainted with the aura of imaginary numbers. As one of the Herrschers closest to the Imaginary Tree, the imaginary aura in the body of the Thousand Herrschers is particularly strong. In this generation, few people can see that Su Jue is a puppet, but there are exceptions to everything. The most direct enemy of imaginary numbers is quantum. Once they come into contact with quantum, they will be strongly repelled. Rejection alone cannot interfere with Su Jue's actions, but it can be easily detected by people with keen perception, such as Kevin Kaslana. If he wants to continue to contact the World Serpent, he will have to face Kevin. The Moth Doll has a good camouflage ability, but it cannot enter the Quantum Sea. If Su Jue wants to compete for the Desire Gem, he will be exposed. That's why Green exists. Although it is a puppet, its essence is human. It is like a blank body, not tainted by any aura. Even quantum cannot detect its abnormality. However, it can also inherit the effect of the honeycomb core and use the abilities of other puppets, but because it is a flesh and blood body, the effect is greatly reduced. People will die when they are killed, and the same goes for puppets, so Su Jue will not use them easily except on special occasions.
After recalling his memory briefly, Su Jue changed the doll's hair color to dark green and made slight adjustments to its appearance. From today on, you will be called "Kosmo". He didn't dare to confront the Thirteen Heroes directly. After all, he would face Kevin next, so he made some minor modifications. There is no horn-shaped receiver on the head, and the rune array that covered most of the body of the original Kosmo has been replaced by a huge Kindred mark, so apart from the hair color and appearance, the difference is still quite large. In this development of puppets, there are many other types, most of which choose the sheep spirit, while a few have their souls devoured by evil wolves, causing serious collapse disasters. However, those deaths and injuries had nothing to do with Su Jue. The evil of the puppets came from humans themselves. Su Jue only gave them the courage to change. After a lot of additions and subtractions, Su Jue's life span, which was originally two years old, was reduced by another year, and the biggest cause was naturally Kosmo. The Qian Jue mark took effect at the same time, devouring a large amount of his vitality to construct this blank living doll. The existence of living puppets is against the laws of nature, so it is normal that the cost is high. In addition to the additional abilities of the Herrscher, Su Jue's own abilities have finally broken through the Power of a Thousand Cats. He is now considered a powerful figure in the Cat Clan, so terrifying. The most important thing is that we finally have a programmable puppet, and a humanoid machine capable of quantum computing is finally available, which can save a lot of trouble. Unfortunately, there are too few puppets with such top-notch specialties. Among the dozens of puppets expanded this time, only a few can be considered specialties. But this is enough. Now that the number of employees in Qianjue's organization has increased sharply, the business involved can also increase. A large number of various items produced by Qianjue have appeared on the market. Fortunately, they did not attract the attention of Tianming. Speaking of destiny, Su Jue subconsciously focused his mind on his clone. Not surprisingly, it was undergoing various studies at this time. However, since Su Jue had been in a deep sleep, they had no good solution and could only analyze the Herrscher through external means. "This sleeping time is too long, Yulandel, are you sure you just captured him and didn't kill him directly?" At the Vimur Experimental Base in South Africa, Yulandel is talking to Otto. She had also been badly injured in the previous battle, so she was stationed at this base not only for Qianjie Yicheng's observation experiment, but also to recuperate. "My Lord Bishop, I cannot hold back in that situation." "..." "It's just a joke. The Herrscher will definitely not die that easily." Otto was actually very anxious. Only by relying on the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle could he briefly glimpse the scenery on the Tree of Imaginary Numbers. However, relying solely on the Key of God not only consumed a lot of resources for each observation, but the time was also very short. According to his calculations, finding a way to revive Kallen would require at least tens of thousands of observations, and he simply did not have that much time. Originally, he was supposed to use the Herrscher of the Void's ability of imaginary space to pierce the membrane of the world, but now there was no way. "That's not necessarily true." Yulandel interrupted Otto, "I sense a strong smell of death from him, as if his life is about to come to an end." "An extremely rare male Herrscher, whose combat power far exceeds that of the one during the second Honkai Impact. He has many secrets, and maybe he can help me find a way to revive Kallen." Otto thought. The more I think about it, the greater the possibility seems. The Plague Gem must have fallen into the imaginary space. This Herrscher must have entered the imaginary space in order to obtain the gem. If ordinary people can enter the imaginary space, then Otto himself cannot be unable to do it. After confirming that his presence had attracted Otto's attention, Su Jue breathed a sigh of relief. He was most afraid that Otto was determined to capture Kiana. Now that the other party wants to study me, let them do it. I will negotiate with them after Kevin comes out. Chapter 128 Haiyuan City "A long time ago, in the icy and snowy Siberia, the Baoli Orphanage welcomed a new companion—"
Following the girl's energetic opening remarks, another voice followed. "I am Alexander Alexeyevich Toetovsky, the fourth child of Alexey Grigorievich Toetovsky..." She was about to continue speaking, but was interrupted by Bronya. Her double helix ponytail was almost pressurized by the long list of names. "I take back what I said before, let's play hide and seek." Rosalia, who had just started to get excited, felt a little resentful and pouted her lips as she retorted, "Why! Are you dissatisfied with Alex... uh, Fusky?" "Stupid Rosalia, if you can't even remember it, don't give it such a name. And is this the story you said everyone likes? Can I ask who the audience you are referring to?" Bronya complained mercilessly. “Uh, kittens, puppies, birds...stones?” Lilia hurriedly tried to smooth things over, her voice getting weaker as time went on. Facing Bronya's gaze, she shifted her gaze to other places somewhat unnaturally, and suddenly blinked her eyes, with a hint of surprise in her voice. "Rosalia, look, it seems that someone is really attracted by our story." The three of them immediately looked in the direction Lilia pointed. They didn't know when a young man appeared behind the huge coral tree. The boy had dark green hair and looked somewhat similar to water plants from a distance. It seemed that he had just arrived here and was completely unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, so he got lost in the coral reef. "It's true! I said the Vodka Girls would become famous!" Rosalia said excitedly, and was about to walk over there, but Bronya quickly stopped her. "Be careful, this is the Mariana Trench in the center of the Pacific Ocean. How could an ordinary person appear here? Moreover, Haiyuan City is now heavily guarded by Anti-Entropy. Let Dr. Einstein and the others deal with this guy of unknown origin." While the three were talking, the boy, whose eyes were almost blinded by the coral, finally heard their voices and waved to them. Seeing this scene, Rosalia immediately screamed, "I've seen this kind of scene before. Usually in horror movies there's a very pretty older sister who attracts the attention of passersby, and then catches and eats the passersby when they get close." "Well, stupid Rosalia, stop talking. What if you scare Sister Bronya?" Lilia pulled at the corner of Rosalia's clothes, looking a little nervous. It was obvious that she remembered the TV she had watched before and was a little scared. Looking at the twins who had no vigilance at all, Bronya covered her forehead helplessly. She stretched out her hand to stop the two of them behind her, and looked at the boy in the distance with vigilance. "Lilia, quickly tell Cocolia about the situation here. This person of unknown origin might be an enemy... um." While she was speaking, the figure of the dark green-haired boy swayed slightly and suddenly disappeared. "Gone?" The other two also noticed this and screamed. If it was just a stranger, they wouldn't be worried. Both of them were strong enough to fight, so they wouldn't be afraid even if they encountered a Honkai beast. However, now, watching a living person disappear before their eyes, the two little girls instantly imagined a bunch of horror stories. "Was he eaten by a monster?" Rosalia's big tail shrank unconsciously and entangled with Lilia's tail beside her. Fortunately, Bronya was worldly-wise and this kind of sudden disappearance could be achieved through holographic projection. She frowned and approached the coral reef. The three little girls were playing hide-and-seek here just now, but they didn't notice anything special in the corals at that time. But now many of the corals have been destroyed, leaving traces of human activities, which means that there was indeed someone there just now, and it was not a projection. "But where are the people?" Bronya used her repaired Heavy-Duty Rabbit to scan the surrounding environment, but found nothing. "In any case, let's report the situation here to Dr. Einstein and the others first." She had no choice but to make the decision. She did not notice that among the shells that could be found everywhere on the ground, there was one with a strange black and white mark. "Well, it looks like the playtime has to end." Rosalia was a little uninterested. She had finally met her sister Bronya again, but before she could bring her to her friends, she had no choice but to go back. She looked back at the coral reef with some regret, and found that among the shells piled there, there was one that was particularly beautiful. Rosalia stopped and picked up the shell. "It's so beautiful." Even though she had lived in Haiyuan City for quite some time, she had never seen such a peculiar shell. Rosalia carefully put the shell into her pocket. "When Sister Bronya leaves, give this to her as a gift."
The three returned to the living area of Haiyuan City, but did not find Dr. Einstein, the dean was not there, and even Cocolia was missing. Then all I can do now is to make a record for now and deal with it when they come back. …… At this time, Einstein and Theresa were in the base of Haiyuan City. Einstein was testing the Blood Knight armor. The Vishnu gene restrictions in Theresa's body had been discovered, and the two were trying to unlock the armor. Cocolia, who was alone, quietly came to the hidden area of Haiyuan City, where there was no one. She glanced at her watch and tapped the surface with her fingertips impatiently. Suddenly, she turned around and looked at the corner of the building. She didn't know when, two figures appeared there silently. After seeing who was coming, Cocolia put down the gun in her hand and said, "What a disgusting way to show up, Gray Snake. Also, I don't remember any extra people appearing in our transaction." "Don't be nervous, he's just a newcomer who has just joined us. He can continue to be responsible for the transaction with you from now on." A hoarse electronic voice came from the mask. Gray Snake held up his black umbrella and turned his gaze to the man beside him. Until then, Mo Mo, who had been hiding himself under his hood, raised his head. There was an uncomfortable gloom in his dark red eyes, and when he looked at Cocolia, she shivered unconsciously. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Cocolia. My name is Moe." His voice was low, and it reminded people of the area under the street lights at night that was not illuminated by the light. Although it was only a few feet away from the light, people dared not get close. Chapter 129 Same Kind "He who hides his head and shows his tail is as disgusting as the gray snake." Hearing Cocolia's sarcastic words, Mo E not only did not feel unhappy at all, but instead showed a slightly fanatical expression. "Thank you for your compliment. To be someone like Mr. Gray Snake is what I am pursuing. Only with such a pure will can one devote everything to snakes." Cocolia's tone stagnated, and she suddenly didn't know what to say. This person's mental state was definitely problematic. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little worried, and hurriedly asked: "I have completed the transaction as agreed. When will Xier be brought back?" "Soon. As long as the Eye of the Abyss is activated and the channel between reality and the quantum sea is opened, the huge energy emitted by the Desire Gem will create a clear coordinate for the Lord. When that time comes, the snake will naturally send Miss Xier back to you safely." After finishing speaking, Mo Mo glanced at the gray snake beside him, who nodded to him and said, "Then I will go and prepare to welcome the Lord, and I will leave the matters here to you." The gray snake left alone, while the black moth gently lowered its body, put its right hand on its chest, and made a humble gesture. "Hmph, you better abide by the agreement, otherwise..." Cocolia snorted and showed the control device in her hand. Haiyuan City is her base camp. As long as she presses the button, a large number of guard mechas will block the entire base, and even the World Serpent will not be able to escape. Facing her threat, Su Jue just smiled and said nothing more. Although mechas are extremely intimidating in normal combat, they are just toys when facing the real top combat power. The puppet threads trapped in the surroundings began to move. Su Jue did not linger and retreated back into the darkness again. The person who came should be Einstein. As a top anti-entropy scientist, he has strong IQ and observation skills. If Su Jue stays too long, he might be able to detect Cocolia's rebellious heart in advance. Su Jue didn't have a good impression of Cocolia, but the Eye of the Abyss hadn't been opened yet, so it was better to be cautious. As he spoke, he had already turned his attention back to Rosalia and the others. Using the shell as an anchor, he would be able to sneak into Haiyuan City more covertly. After the trio returned to the residential area, Bronya had completed the record of the incident, but Su Jue's actions were very covert and did not leave any traces. Now Theresa's armor has been upgraded, the seal of the Blood Knight has been lifted, and the upper limit has been greatly increased. When the Vishnu factor in her body reaches S level, she will be officially promoted to the God-killing Armor Twilight Knight. After a short combat practice in the training room, Theresa went out and happened to meet Bronya. In order to deal with the changes in Haiyuan City, Einstein also prepared a new armored comet drive for Bronya. However, now that Einstein has gone to find Cocolia, the two have to investigate the abnormalities they discovered before. After she left, the twin sisters who were left behind could only play alone out of boredom. During this time, Lillia fell asleep again due to the sequelae of the Honkai gene modification, and finally Rosalia was left alone.
The originally lively and cheerful pink-haired girl became very quiet when she was alone. She looked at the empty city outside the window, but her mind unconsciously recalled the time she spent in the orphanage with everyone. "Everyone has left..." During the Great Collapse 4 months ago, the orphanage was attacked by Honkai beasts and many friends were killed in the attack. If Cocolia had not conducted experiments on the twin sisters, they would probably have died in the Collapse as well. But even so, everyone can never go back to their previous lives. Xing has to stay alone in Siberia to take care of the remaining children. It is hard to imagine the scene of such a reckless and annoying guy taking care of others.
