Because of his friendship with the Anti-Monitor, Huo Rong did not act immediately. Otherwise, if such a powerful multi-faceted individual as Huo Rong had acted rashly, the ultimate outcome would likely have been the destruction of Paradise and the withering of heroes.
The first Lantern Knight of the Imaginary Tree is far beyond what the present-day Paradise can rival.
The Phoenix Fairy could only use a small portion of her power. Noah and the power of the Spectrum were probably like fireflies compared to the bright moon in front of the Calamity, not even in the same league.
"They survived! They scared us to death!"
Pado couldn't help but pat her chest, while on the other side of the earth, Huo Rong had a very similar thought.
"Well, that was close. I almost thought I was going to be beaten to death by a group of adult experts."
Huo Rong pressed his hand to his chest, feeling the throbbing of his great heart, and breathed a sigh of relief. If he had been slightly careless just now, the First Lamp would have gone out and Huo Rong would have perished.
"Heh, interesting. I never expected to see such an ancient artifact. I know you, the creatures imprisoned by the weak and pitiful guardians of the universe, abandoned by the times."
Just then, Huo Rong suddenly heard a voice beside him. Startled, he looked to his side and felt as if war drums were beating: "Who is it?"
“You may call me a believer, a believer who… seeks the greatness of the harmony of destiny and is happy to manipulate the course of fate.”
Looking at Chu Deng Qi Mo in front of him, dressed in a white robe and holding a rather extraordinary-looking book, he was using the pseudonym "The Believer," which had briefly appeared in DC.
"Believer...you know me?"
Huo Rong's heart tightened. The being before him felt incredibly powerful, and there was no doubt that this guy also had the ability to easily annihilate him, body and soul.
"My hobby is observing fate, First Lantern. I actually want to make a deal with you."
Looking at the first lamp in front of him, Qi Mo had only one thought in his mind: Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
It was a huge win to spend some points to be able to hear Huo Rong's thoughts. If Huan Yu from Xing Tie next door knew about Huo Rong's past, he would probably be happy for a whole day.
"What deal?"
Huo Rong cautiously asked, and Qi Mo, who was using the alias of a believer (who was preparing to become the villainous BOSS and die in the future), pondered for a moment before answering: "I need you... to help me kill someone."
"Murder? Murder will definitely attract the attention of powerful beings like the police, who can easily wipe out even stronger beings like those in the Transcendent Realm. This is insane."
Huo Rong quickly shook his head. At this moment, Qi Mo continued unhurriedly, "As long as we kill in space, it's fine. Space is special; it's far less safe than Earth, and the police rarely deal with things in space."
I understand, it's outside my permissions.
Huo Rong's eyes flashed with understanding, and after a moment he continued to ask:
"Who do you want me to kill? What reward can you offer me?"
What is right before our eyes may be the key to understanding this era.
"Seele Vollery, among her peers on this planet, has one of the best understandings of the emotional spectrum. The girl who once formed the Sinestro Study Group once stumbled upon a secret of mine."
I cannot allow anyone who might know my secret to continue existing on this planet.
As for the reward? I am an honorary knight of St. Freya, no, an honorary teacher, and I myself possess the qualifications of an excellent teacher of St. Freya. As long as I don't encounter someone whose true strength is probably at the peak of the teaching department, or half a step into the vice principal's realm, like Himeko Murata or that person whose name I can't say, my authority is beyond question.
"So, just tell me what kind of compensation you want."
Qi Mo said in a low voice. Upon hearing this, Huo Rong thought for a moment and made a decision: "Very well, I can help you kill Xi'er, and in return, I will go to kindergarten."
"I didn't expect you to have such ambition, but it's too difficult. Your height and age are obviously not suitable. However, as a [believer], I can promise you that as long as you kill Seele, I will give you kindergarten textbooks and the legendary children's picture books."
"Hmph, this is exactly what I need. As long as I can receive the education of this era, I am confident that I can stand at the top of the planet again, and even confident that I can stride into the vast starry sky."
Huo Rong nodded and agreed to the assassination mission, but he quickly realized something else: "What if I can't beat Seele?"
"Don't worry, I have prepared an item that can banish it to a special dimension, and I can show you the way."
After glancing at Huo Rong, Qi Mo looked into the distance, towards the illusory multiverse beyond the universe, which the Black Death Emperor had created using the Anti-Monitor as an energy source.
"Such a vast universe can be forgotten so easily. The owner of this place is really wasting it. But then again, someone who can be the leader of a study group must be exceptionally talented and may have already transcended the realm of the multiverse."
Feeling the absolute stillness, Huo Rong muttered to himself, "According to the believers, this is a multiverse created by the leader of the Black Lantern Study Group."
This place fills the gap in the study group's expertise regarding the concept of death, and the multiverse will continuously supply it with power.
What I need to do is intercept a portion of the universe and turn it into a source of my own recovery. There are no emotions here, but the pure energy itself has a certain restorative effect on me.
Moreover, the two rings he had obtained earlier could be used to imbue the power here with a layer of anger or pity, making it easier to be devoured.
Honkai Impact 2: Chapter 1073: Super Duck's Alertness UP!
As time went by, his power gradually recovered, and soon Qi Mo's figure appeared in this area dominated by the Black Death Emperor.
The embodiment of death and darkness may have noticed the location of the Calamity, but He is too preoccupied with fighting Nar to deal with it.
"You've arrived... My strength has recovered quite well now, so I shouldn't have much trouble fighting a junior high school student. I'm even confident I can put up a fight against a high school student."
In the deathly darkness, Huo Rong opened his eyes and looked at the person who had come and said this. Upon hearing this, Qi Mo nodded: "Very good. Get rid of that Seele who knows what she shouldn't know, who secretly calls herself the Study Group of the Seneca Legion. After it's done, I'll give you kindergarten textbooks."
If you perform well in the future, I can even give you elementary school, middle school, and even high school textbooks.
Upon hearing this, Huo Rong's eyes lit up. He already had a guess in his heart as to why the believers had chosen him.
It must be because of his identity in this day and age, where he doesn't even have an ID card, and outsiders believe that he has never had any contact with believers. Even if believers use him to get rid of trouble, they probably won't be suspected by others.
"How should I seduce Seele? By the way, how strong is Seele?"
Looking at the figure in front of him, Huo Rong asked, and Qi Mo pretended to ponder before saying, "Xi'er is a being with two souls in one body. As for strength, she can also use the power of the emotional spectrum."
In the destinies I've glimpsed, Seele may have possessed enough power to interfere with the multiverse and may have even caused a student brawl called Zero Hour. However, you don't need to worry that I'll trap Seele's strongest fighting item beforehand.
"Seele, having lost that thing, is like you, without your Great Heart, unable to unleash her full potential. As for how to seduce her... Seele is the proud leader of the Seneca Study Group; you only need to challenge her to a duel."
The "props" Qi Mo mentioned naturally referred to the Parallax Demon among the Lantern Beasts, but Huo Rong was more concerned about something else: "She also uses the Emotional Spectrum?"
"Although the emotional spectrum is indeed somewhat niche in this day and age, it still has its enthusiasts. Among all emotions, Seele is particularly adept at fear and has mastered the Heart of Greatness. With your deep understanding of the emotional spectrum, you should have little trouble dealing with Seele."
After Qi Mo explained, Chu Deng nodded naturally. His power system might indeed be considered niche in this era.
After all, the upper limit of the emotional spectrum in this era is probably only average, which is why I want textbooks that truly guide the way in this era, rather than those educational textbooks.
After learning about Seele from Qi Mo, Huo Rong quickly crafted a challenge:
"You are one of the teachers at St. Freya Academy, why don't you help me take a look at this challenge letter and see if there's anything wrong with it?"
Upon seeing the challenge from the first Lantern, Qi Mo completely lost all hope for the prestige of this first Lantern from the multiverse.
"To Hill Flöhlä, leader of the Seneca Legion, as if we were meeting in person."
I, Huo Rong, have recently heard quite a bit about your deeds. I've heard that you are the strongest Lanternman on this planet, but I, Huo Rong, don't quite believe it. I think the leader of the famous Sinestro Study Group, oh no, the Sinestro Legion, would naturally not be afraid of me, right?
Tonight I hope to have a battle between emotional spectrum users. Well, if you want to avoid this battle by telling on your teacher or something, then you are not qualified to be my opponent and you don't need to come.
As for the location of the battle, the following location...
As he read, he silently recited Huo Rong's declaration of war. The more he read, the more subtle the expression on Qi Mo's face became.
At least, it seems that Huo Rong is very afraid that hope Er will cause the teacher to recruit a powerful adult.
"Given Seele's personality, I don't think she'll refuse this challenge. I'll slip this letter into Seele's desk drawer without her noticing."
After saying this, Qi Mo prepared himself to work as a messenger under the guise of a believer.
Even the clear sky couldn't hide the winter chill. Bronya breathed on her bare hands and asked softly, "Seele, would you like me to get you a coat?"
Although such a temperature wouldn't affect Bronya at all if she wanted to, she chose to adjust her senses to be like those of a normal person in most situations, in order to enjoy life.
"Dr. Tesla's custom-made armor for Seele has built-in warmth, so if Bronya needs it, Seele's coat can be given to her first~"
Seele's words were incredibly alluring to Bronya. She felt a surge of heat; Seele's coat looked so good, so desirable.
No, Bronya can't think like that. If she does, wouldn't she become mentally depraved, just like that idiot Kiana?
"Don't underestimate the physical strength of Kryptonians. Seele, your Bronya sister is amazing. This temperature is nothing to Bronya."
Suppressing the urge to do something immoral, Seele and Bronya said without hesitation as they prepared to head to the office.
Bronya had previously asked if there was any vacant space available for her to use as an office for developing Alahato, and Theresa readily agreed to allocate an office upon hearing Bronya's request.
St. Freya had a lot of rooms prepared when it was built, and there are actually quite a few that are still vacant. The two people who arrived at the office sat down in their seats with ease.
Heavy Bunny, come out here!
With a thought from Bronya, the massive figure of Heavy Bunny appeared in the office. Heavy Bunny's help was indispensable in the process of creating Alahato.
Seele, who had originally planned to accompany Bronya and continue reading the story she hadn't finished last time, stretched and yawned. The next moment, while rummaging through the drawer, she touched the envelope on top of the book.
"This is... a letter for Seele?"
Seele, who had just taken out the letter, paused slightly, while Bronya, who had just turned on her computer, suddenly contracted her pupils upon hearing this.
letter?
Could it be a love letter?
Bronya, alert level up!
Unexpectedly, Bronya's most dangerous enemy was hiding in St. Freya!
Who, who wants to harm the pure, pitiful, weak and helpless Seele!
Bronya jumped up from the chair and rushed to Seele's side: "Seele, do you need Bronya to do this little thing?"
Honkai Impact 2: Chapter 1074: Calamity: This will be the ultimate showdown between me and Seele!
"Huh?"
However, at the same time Bronya raised this question, Seele had already opened the envelope and taken out the letter.
"what?"
But when Seele saw the contents of the letter, she froze on the spot, seemingly completely bewildered as to why she would receive such a letter.
"Bronya, is someone trying to attack Seele?"
Looking at the words on the letter, and recalling the warning from the other party, Seele spoke with a somewhat subtle tone.
"Who dares to be so audacious!"
Bronya breathed a sigh of relief, but outwardly she clenched her fists and explained to Seele without hiding anything: "It's the first Lanternman, Calamity. He seems to have his eye on me because of my status as the leader of the Seneca Legion."
Seele's expression became somewhat subtle as she spoke. Although she was the leader of the Seneca Legion, she had never actually seen anyone from that legion; she only knew that such a force existed.
"Emperor Number One Lantern?"
Bronya put away her carefree attitude and became serious. The first Genie was no ordinary person but a formidable enemy worthy of careful consideration, whose strength was likely terrifying.
To save face, Huo Rong didn't write down his title but instead wrote down his own name, which no one else knew.
However, due to the viewing space, Seele and Bronya immediately linked the Calamity to the First Lantern. After carefully reading the text above, Bronya made a decision: "Seele, go with Bronya to find the headmaster."
Although the headmaster seems unreliable at times, she is actually a Grand Marshal of the Demonic Path. Against a powerful enemy like Chu Deng, the headmaster's intervention is necessary.
"Okay, sure."
Seele was slightly taken aback when Bronya grabbed her wrist, but she did not refuse. She interpreted the letter's mention of "telling the teacher" as a search for the powerful figure behind the scenes.
However, facing such a formidable and diverse opponent as the First Lantern, Seele declared that she wasn't out of her mind and wasn't arrogant enough to attempt a solo kill of the First Lantern.
In the headmaster's office, after Bronya and Seele read the letters they had received, Theresa chose to immediately notify the others in the viewing space.
The threat from the first Lantern Man is imminent.
After sending out the message, Theresa looked at the challenge letter in front of her and said with a sense of trouble, "The location chosen by the first Lantern Knight... is a bit difficult to handle."
"In the eyes of the first Lantern, ordinary people are probably just ants. Not only adults, but even children could probably be killed by the first Lantern without batting an eye."
In the alleyways of the city opposite St. Freya... fighting at full strength on Earth would indeed be troublesome.
Bronya had a headache; she estimated that if she and the Calamity were to exchange a punch, the Earth would be instantly pulverized by the aftershocks.
The space tunnel opened, and Kiana casually remarked, "Perhaps once we get there, I can try shifting the battlefield? From that alley across the street to the void beyond the universe, or that false multiverse?"
Having mastered the Eternal Core and a portion of the Phoenix Factor, Kiana could easily do everything she said. Theresa nodded in agreement: "If it's feasible, it's necessary to do so."
Time flew by, and the time for Huo Rong to arrange a fight in the alley had arrived.
However, this time, Huo Rong did not appear in his true form but instead observed the situation from a far corner of the universe.
Although the believer said that Seele was arrogant and would not lead anyone, and that he would help solve the problem of her strongest power, he would not gamble his life on the words of the scourge.
"I'm not sure how well my clone is finding its way to the center of the spectrum."
While waiting for Seele's arrival, Huo Rong recalled the clone he had created before. As the Great Heart beat fully with abundant energy, he could feel the Ring of Origin calling to him.
His own alter ego is now searching for the location of the Ring of Origin in a special realm where emotional energy flows.
In reality, the Origin Ring that Huo Rong sensed was not his original one at all, but rather one that Qi Mo, in his avatar as a messenger, had forged after sensing the aura of the Great Heart. The true Origin Ring was actually located in Ganther, DC.
"Hmm, she's here? It might be Seele Vollerai, a strong player from middle school, or even high school!"
