Live broadcast of Honkai Impact 3rd, I chose to expose Kiana in Sky City!

At this point, the principle is actually very clear.

It is by reversing the [tape probe] that the [present] returns to the past, thus completing the reversal of time - it can also be said to be a kind of grafting.

A grafting onto oneself.

The advantage of doing this is that you can accomplish the greatest things with the least amount of energy.

It can also avoid the occurrence of time bugs, and thus prevent the [future] and [past] from being misaligned and competing for living space.

"Is that so? I think this analogy is much easier to understand."

"indeed..."

"It's a very novel angle, but the question is... Is it really worth the price he has to pay to do this?"

As everyone in the live broadcast room gradually understood everything, Yulandel also gradually understood everything.

However, her questions at this moment were roughly the same as others.

[......So what do you mean by cost, that is, the energy required for the act of "grafting"? ]

[Yes. With the experience of the previous exploration experiment, it is indeed easy for you to understand my plan.]

In response to Yulandel's question, Otto answered directly and pleasantly.

[In order to achieve the goal of "grafting myself", I need three conditions in total:]

The first is to find a way to contact the Imaginary Tree, the second is the Thousand Worlds and enough Honkai energy, and the last is the space-time coordinates that are suitable for [grafting], that is, a stable area that can be locked using the Thousand Worlds Beacon.

Otto has actually solved these problems long ago.

As for the solution, it is a deal with the "Honkai Will"...

"So, what exactly is Honkai Will?"

"Yeah, I'm curious too. Does this thing really exist?"

"Hehehe... Of course they exist. But sometimes, gods may just be ordinary beings with a higher level of technological civilization."

As Otto mentioned the Will of Honkai again, not only Seele, Rita and others who were watching in the live broadcast room were shocked.

Even many heroes of the previous civilization were confused.

No one understands what the so-called Honkai Will is.

But this is actually not important.

Because the most important point now is...

[To be frank, I don't like the World Serpent's Stigma Plan. But now, Destiny has missed the best opportunity to stop it. Going back to the starting point is also creating opportunities for ourselves to reconstruct the world situation. ]

【And He...is also happy to enjoy this "drama" that subverts time and space.】

And by coming into contact with the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, Otto himself would become a being similar to a Herrscher but of a higher level.

To this end, he is able to accomplish such earth-shattering feats as changing time and space and affecting the world.

However, at the end of this seemingly happy assumption, there is a very serious issue that needs to be addressed and understood.

[.......But, what about the world itself? Every word you just said seems to correspond to the power of destroying the heavens and the earth.]

After barely understanding what Otto wanted to say, Yulandel thought of a very serious question.

Faced with this problem, Otto also gave a very generous answer.

[You are right. But... as the saying goes, "No destruction, no construction". How can we welcome a new world without destroying the old one?]

In order to achieve this goal, the price to be paid is——【Now】

Hearing this word, Youlan Daier's eyes widened, but she didn't understand the meaning of this word clearly...

And it was under such a gaze that Otto began to talk about the relationship between Herrscher and imaginary numbers.

If we look at it from the perspective of the Honkai Will, the Herrscher symbolizes harmony, while civilization is actually the factor that restricts the development of Honkai.

Therefore, civilization inherently contains a considerable amount of collapse.

In order to complete the reconstruction of the world, we need to mobilize the potential energy between reality and imaginary numbers - in the past, it was an important source of power for the Herrs; now, we can also use this energy to re-navigate the world.

[…If you do this, then what will happen to the “now” in front of us, the real world at this moment?]

Chapter 302 Everyone: Finally the health bar is showing? Great! Beat him, Youlan Daier!

Finally, after a long period of preparation, Otto finally told Yulandel the truth.

[Outside of this Klosten, they will disappear without a trace. Klosten will become the only epitaph of our era of annihilation—instead of those sacrifices that are even more unbearable for "humanity."]

"No matter how I think about it, this is ridiculous..."

"Sacrificing more than 99% of humanity to protect humanity, can this really be called salvation..."

As Otto revealed his plan once again, everyone in the live studio felt the incomprehensibility and unbelievability once again...

Just when everyone was truly amazed by Otto's imagination.

Yulandel finally realized the seriousness of the situation...

[You mean... outside of Klosten...]

[Outside of Klosten, everything that has been born and destroyed in the past five hundred years will completely become "no longer exist" in the river of time. ]

Otto went on to explain the cost of starting over.

Of course, Beichen, who had read the script, knew it very well.

He wasn't actually planning on doing this...

Because as Einstein analyzed before.

If he really wanted to reset time, he could have just done it secretly after inviting everyone here.

There is no need to give others a chance to compete fairly.

Therefore, these seemingly inhumane words are actually just a lie woven by a fool to deceive everyone.

[This is the price of "starting over again". This is the price of the plan with the highest success rate that I am about to implement.]

After hearing what Archbishop Otto said, Youlandel closed her eyes and thought carefully...

Then she opened her eyes and looked angry.

[This is crazy. You don't like the "Stigmata Project", but you want the whole world to pay a heavier price for it than the "Stigmata Project"? ]

[You are murdering almost everyone in the world, Bishop!]

Yulandel questioned Otto angrily.

Her attitude has already shown that she will never allow such a thing to happen.

"I didn't expect that she is not so stubborn! Hmm, Archbishop Otto will be alone from now on..."

"Does this seem like you could say... you deserve it?"

"Anyway, what's next is going to be interesting. This Valkyrie named Yulandel seems to be quite powerful, right? As for this Otto, he should be good at commanding. If that's the case... can he beat Yulandel?!"

As Yulandel expressed her anger towards Otto, the live broadcast room was immediately filled with comments of surprise from the audience.

At this moment, what most of them wanted to see was Yulandel beating Otto.

And at this moment, the plot is indeed heading in this direction.

Because Archbishop Otto had no intention of calming Yulandel's anger, and he didn't even have a word or two to comfort her.

[Yes, that's right. But humans...are still "humans" because of this.]

Otto slowly expressed his ideas.

Although this plan was cruel and ruthless, it could indeed be said to have preserved the existence of humanity.

In contrast, the Stigmata Project has the wonderful result of being able to defeat Honkai.

But the price is that humans are no longer human, and the only thing that can be preserved is... [civilization].

So strictly speaking, these two plans are essentially different ways of dealing with the concept of "human beings".

But no matter which plan it was, Yulandel could not accept it.

[But what's the point of this? We protect human beings, and what we protect is the living free will, not some empty concept!]

[…You are wrong, Yulandel. I want to save a living free will from the empty concept of "humanity".]

Otto responded slowly.

Of course he knew how anti-human this plan was.

But this is the only plan that can bring Kallen back to life.

Although there is some concealment about the final price, this statement is indeed not wrong.

Otto, just to save a living free will from the empty concept of "human beings".

[You know her name. "Karen Kaslana."]

Facing Yulandel's accusations, Otto slowly said Karen's name.

After hearing this name, Yulandel fell into a long silence...

【You finally mentioned her, Bishop.】

[Hehehe...yes, we've gone through such a big circle and finally arrived at the place where it all began. ]

[Karen Kaslana should not have died as we know it. This is not my fault alone, this is the fault of all mankind. ]

"???"

“This is a bit far-fetched…”

"Can all this be tied together? This man is hopeless..."

As Otto said, "This is a mistake made by all of humanity," everyone in the live broadcast room was stunned.

No one expected that this man could say such far-fetched words.

Just because Kallen died, this death is going to be extended to all of humanity... This is really terrifying...

[…This is not a reason to try to murder everyone in the world. Besides, that era is long gone, and you are the only one alive.]

Yulandel tried to persuade Otto to turn back.

After all, no matter how you think about it, such things seem too crazy and unrealistic.

[Well, every normal human being would think so. ]

[So, as a representative of "normal humans" - Yulandel, I will give you a chance. ]

Otto didn't think about persuading Yulandel.

Or he knew that this plan would not be accepted by everyone.

Because even if they were not the ones sacrificed, they, who had inherited Kallen's will, would never allow such a thing as killing other people in the world to happen.

Therefore, these words are only meant to achieve a purpose.

That is to let Youlan Daier...

【Kill me, and my plan will vanish along with it.】

"Eh? These words sound... a little weird coming from his mouth?"

"It's really strange. Why would he let someone kill him?"

"Could it be that he thinks he can achieve some kind of evolution by relying on his life-and-death experiences? Isn't this too much of a gamble?"

As the comments from people in the live broadcast room passed by, Youlandel did not say a word.

She frowned and looked at the man in front of her. Although she didn't say much, her eyes were full of anger.

But even though she was furious, Yulandel still chose not to take action.

Otto saw her hesitation and added fuel to the fire.

[The person standing in front of you is nothing more than a collection of sins and desires. ]

[He clearly knows morality but does not abide by it, and clearly knows ethics but tramples on them. ]

[He longs for wisdom, but only to achieve personal satisfaction; he worships beauty, but only to deny the existence of ugliness. ]
