Humans are in chaos, despicable outsiders.

Chapter 367 I, the Immortal, shall bow to you!

"So—you mean my older brother and my cheap sister-in-law are beings called Herrschers, supernatural life forms born—no… evolved—due to the Great Honkai—a very, very dangerous existence?"

Chen Tianwen looked at Imotek, who was sipping fries and staring at him with suspicion.

"That's right... Slurp—the Herrscher's brain... how should I put it? Except for a few cases where it's a little abnormal, a little beating will fix it."

Imotek waved to the two women who were nervously watching the consultation of various experts in mid-air, receiving treatment with both "physical" and "psychological" therapies. Imotek gave them a reassuring look.

"Sister Imotek, are you really sure... this is really just a matter of fighting it out?"

Watching the laughing Shi Bao, with a "healthy" grin on his face, sweep past her and then bow down to Chen Tianwen and Anna with his greatsword raised high, the young girl felt as if she had been struck by lightning...

"Oh, this? Your brother is the one who got beaten up for no reason—"

Imotek glanced at the sky where Ashi was celebrating his birthday, and his eyebrows twitched. In the end, he said that everything was normal. He didn't want red envelopes, just wanted to live.

"Huh? Bro, you got beaten up for nothing? What does that mean?"

Chen Tianwen tilted his head in confusion, looking at his older brother who had taken the brunt of the damage for his sister-in-law, and began to sigh...

"And... these days, do you really have to endure this kind of beating to bring your sister-in-law home?"

"Huh? No, no, no, you misunderstood, little girl—you don't need to be beaten like this to hug your wife."

"The one who should really get this beating is your sister-in-law..."

Imotek shrugged, nodded as he looked up at Chen Tianwu, who was fiercely protecting Anna from above...

"But I didn't know Night Owl was so protective of his wife. Well then, I wish them both a happy marriage!"

"Putting everything else aside, Imotek, where did you get the idea that they're having a good time? And what's with the fact that it's my cheap sister-in-law who's going to get beaten up?!"

Little Chen Tianwen stared wide-eyed at Imotek, his expression one of "I don't understand, but I'm utterly amazed."

"Don't you Easterners have a saying, 'Share happiness and hardship'? Clearly, only one of them needs to be beaten, yet they've chosen to stand together—shouldn't I wish them a long and happy marriage?"

Imotek shrugged, giving him an expression that said, "I know all about marriage and relationships."

"What kind of strange explanation is that? And what about the other question? — Why only beat up the sister-in-law and not the brother-in-law???"

"This is much easier to explain—"

Imotek nodded and pointed to another man engaged in a chaotic brawl nearby.

"See that handsome older man?"

"I saw him, he really is a handsome older brother, what's wrong?"

Chen Tianwen looked at Imotek with some confusion.

"Big brother? That's Walter Joyce, the leader of Anti-Entropy, who's already over 50 years old—"

"Uh... so what's so special about Uncle Joyce?"

"Yes—he's a Herrscher, just like your brother."

"And then did you see those two captains, the white-haired one and the silver-haired one, who were holding greatswords and were celebrating your brother and sister-in-law's birthday?"

Imotec pointed to another group of people, Kiana and Shibao, who seemed to be preparing to unleash their ultimate moves by moving left and right, using a combination of up and down, left and right, ABAB.

"Are they Herrschers too?"

Before Imotek could explain, the girl guessed the answer.

"That's right—"

Imotek nodded.

"Not bad, you reacted quickly this time—so you should have noticed that they all have one thing in common, right?"

Imotek looked at the little girl in front of him, anticipating her answer—

"Special features? Hmm, compared to my older brother and sister-in-law..."

"My brother seems no different from the others, but his sister-in-law..."

"It seems like she's a little... uh, not very bright?"

"Bingo, this means that when a Herrscher is born, they usually come with a Herrscher personality."

"And most Herrscher personalities aren't good people; they'll fight with the original owner of the body for control—"

Imotek deliberately drew out his words, looking at Chen Tianwen's somewhat nervous expression, keeping him in suspense for a moment.

"A struggle for control of the body?! What would happen if that Herrscher personality succeeded and took over my sister-in-law's body?!"

As expected, Chen Tianwen looked nervously at Imotek, waiting for her to finish her sentence.

"Take it! Look, it's summer here, yet there's a blizzard near the equator!"

"Uh... Sister Imotek, you mean...?"

"This is the extreme cold released by your sister-in-law Anna Shaniat in her unconscious state—"

"If there is no external interference, the Herrscher personality basically reveres the anti-human, anti-social personality that sends the world into annihilation."

"In other words, the ice storms you see will be super-amplified, causing this era to enter another Ice Age—a new mass extinction."

"The end of the world is nothing more than this—and your brother, as you've seen, is an exception among exceptions, lacking both a Herrscher personality and antisocial tendencies—"

"All I could think about was saving your sister-in-law... but well, my brain isn't working too well... if that beating had been directed at your sister-in-law instead, it would have been over long ago, and they could be sleeping together tonight—"

Imotek shrugged, indicating that his subordinates were sometimes just a bunch of idiots.

"Speaking of which, who are these people in charge of the treatment?"

Seeing Shi Bao finally lose his temper, cursing and swearing, he grabbed a brick and swung it at Chen Tianwu's head, knocking him unconscious, Chen Tianwen stuck out his tongue.

"You mean that grumpy older sister who just knocked your brother unconscious?"

Walking over to Chen Tianwu, who had fainted and fallen on the bridge, Imotek poked him to make sure his cadre was still alive and nodded.

"That's right, putting everything else aside... that move where he knocked out the guy with both hands while holding a brick was really impressive."

"...?"

【Night Owl, Night Owl, if you don't wake up soon, your sister will be corrupted by other Herrschers.....】

"Handsome, huh...? Well, I think Kiana, who has white hair like me, is still the most handsome—the Herrscher of Knowledge who knocked out your brother."

"The prototype of the immortals in your Eastern mythology and the origin of the legends—the Red Mandarin Duck Immortal—is the person next to her who looks exactly the same. And she should be considered the Red Mandarin Duck Immortal's sister or daughter?"

"Hmm, it's most likely her younger sister... If that Herrscher of Knowledge were her daughter, she'd probably tear Mount Taixu apart..."

"Is the sister of an immortal also considered an immortal?"

"perhaps?"

Imotek raised an eyebrow.

"Then I'll take a celestial being as my teacher!"

"???"

Chapter 368 Luring People Out to Kill Them.jpg

"Finished?"

Imotek, hands on his hips, looked at the "jubilant" crowd before him, like a hunter returning with a bountiful catch—

Meanwhile, their target, the Herrscher of Ice—Anna Schariac—was being carried on Shi Bao's shoulder like a bandit's wife, and was in a coma.

"It's resolved—in a sense, Miss Imotek, your kick brought this collapse to an end..."

Fu Hua shook her head, smiled at Imotek, and teased the white-haired girl in front of her...

"Don't even mention that kick. Even if you put my head in the toilet, I wouldn't have imagined that kick would blow you all out..."

"Hmm? Lord Imotek didn't sense the presence of the two Herrschers inside that cardboard box?"

Fu Hua looked at the girl in front of her with some confusion, seemingly puzzled...

"No... I don't know why that tattered cardboard box could block my senses—and didn't you guys sense anything was wrong?"

"How could such a tattered cardboard box help this couple hide your tiny [things]?"

Imotek picked up the strange piece of cardboard box debris, squinting as he examined it—a golden pattern flashed briefly in the cracks of the tattered cardboard before vanishing without a trace...

"Tsk?...Is that blond guy out of his mind? Giving a broken cardboard box this kind of buff???"

Imotek's lips twitched as he watched the fleeting glimpse of energy from a clearly identifiable source... and there seemed to be a line of text deliberately written on it—

Paradise awaits you!

"Perhaps Miss Snow Apocalypse has her own considerations?"

Fu Hua, knowing who the white-haired girl in front of her was dissing, shook her head helplessly.

"...Miss Snow's own idea?? No, no, no, Your Excellency Fu Hua, I must point that out, that girl must have some serious illness to do this!"

Holding onto the wreckage of the cardboard box, Imotek showed Fu Hua someone's masterpiece—

"this...."

Looking at the cardboard box wreckage covered in some unknown buff, Fu Hua swallowed back all the words she wanted to say to exonerate the blonde woman, and began to wonder if someone had really not been seen; her thought process was a bit off...

"Let's not talk about that golden-haired lunatic who's always nowhere to be seen. How's Anna Shaniat doing?"

Imotek glanced at the Herrscher of Knowledge, who was watching Anna, the Herrscher of Ice, parade like a mountain king, and raised an eyebrow—

"Don't you think...? You're acting like a bandit right now... Miss Herrscher of Knowledge?"

Seeing Shi Bao, who was preparing to take his wife back to camp like a mountain bandit king and had no airs of a celestial being whatsoever, Imotek's lips twitched.

"Huh? Mountain bandits...?"

Shi Bao thought for a moment, then seemed to have been reminded of something—

"Didn't the old man own a mountain? I remember it was called Mount Taixu, right...? I hereby declare that from now on I am the Mountain King of Mount Taixu, the leader of the Taixu Sect—"

The Herrscher of Knowledge, having returned victorious after a crushing defeat against the Herrscher of Earth and the Herrscher of Ice, is beginning to get a little carried away—

"Ouch—you old relic, why did you hit me!"

Shi Bao, who had been hit on the head, glared at Fu Hua beside him in dissatisfaction.
