Honkai, they all became my stigmata

"I heard that you once approached Sirin, why?"

Chen Yu probably didn't need to explain Xilin's purpose to Gray Snake, so he went straight to the point and asked Gray Snake's purpose first.

Only by putting the things that both parties desire on the trading platform can they measure their value with each other.

"It is precisely because both parties have something for each other that the transaction can be established. In order to show sincerity, we will tell the truth about our purpose."

Gray Snake turned the black umbrella in his hand, stating the facts in a low voice.

"—Frankly speaking, we hope to use the power of the Second Herrscher, the Herrscher of the Void, to enter the Quantum Sea and rescue an existence that has been sealed for a long time."

Chapter 36

Squeeze the world snake skin

If human beings do not have a leader, they are in a state of disunity, but if they have a hero who can guide the direction, they can gather strength and overcome disasters.

However, most of the thirteen heroes of the last days have passed away, and the remaining ones are all performing their duties. Floating survivors have lost vital memories due to the long years and accidents while performing their established duties and traversing the world.

Therefore, the only leader they can find is... the warrior with the inscription of salvation.

Since Gray Snake met Kevin 500 years ago, they have become his faithful believers. They believe that only by following Kevin can there be hope in the future, and only he can lead mankind through the final collapse. .

"The Sea of ​​Quantum?"

Sirin tilted her head, grabbed Chen Yu's arm and shook it.

"...You don't know what the Sea of ​​Quantum is, do you?"

Hearing Sirin's doubtful voice, Chen Yu touched her chin.

"Are you underestimating me? Of course I know, isn't Quantum Sea just...not just..."

The girl spoke bravely, but she hesitated and couldn't come to a conclusion.

Hmm... Sirin, my little illiterate.

Chen Yu patted her head, and let her recognize it with a simple metaphor.

According to legend, in this once empty world——

There is a huge tree whose top cannot be seen, whose branches cover the sky.

Beneath the trees was a vast sea, its depths unfathomable, its boundaries untouchable.

In the world, there is only one tree and one sea, so they started an endless competition.The sea continued to expand and swell, and the giant trees kept taking root and growing.While wanting to submerge the other party, one side wants to absorb the other party.

The tree has spent countless years in the sand of the Ganges River under the infiltration of the sea, branched out countless branches, and formed dense flowers and leaves like stars. Each leaf is a world, and those falling and withered leaves fall into the world. In the sea, it became a "world bubble".

This tree is the [Tree of Imaginary Numbers], and this sea is the [Sea of ​​Quantum].

"I seem to understand, but I don't seem to understand..."

This is just a metaphor to help people understand, not the tree and the sea in the true sense. If you have to say it, these two things may be more like a Tai Chi diagram, entangled with each other.

"However, isn't it a bit dangerous to enter the Quantum Sea?"

Chen Yu pondered.

After all, the Herrscher is an existence on the imaginary side, and Xilin's daily manipulation and use is also the imaginary space. Although she should also be able to open the door to the Quantum Sea, it is still unknown whether there is a risk in that place.

The only one who can control the sea of ​​quantum seems to be the pickled Xier.

"If you want Sirin to personally go to the quantum sea to find people..."

Chen Yu looked worriedly at the little puffer fish beside him.

"It's okay, we don't need Lady Saint to step into the Quantum Sea in person."

Gray Snake explained.

"It is enough for the Holy Maiden to use the power of the Herrscher of the Sky to make a [Beacon]."

The reason Kevin was trapped by Su in the Sea of ​​Quantum for thousands of years was not that he encountered an invincible opponent there, but that there was no way forward.

The sea of ​​quantum is so vast. If there is no coordinate leading to this world, even the invincible Kevin can only scurry in the sea like a headless fly, unable to find his way back.

Therefore, as long as Gray Snake projects a beacon into the Quantum Sea that enables Kevin to sense the coordinates of the intrinsic world, it will undoubtedly guide the man on a way back.

It is not incomprehensible that Gray Snake would come to the Herrscher of the Space to seek a way to rescue Kevin.

Not long after the awakening of Sirin in the Essence World, he was defeated by Destiny and Anti-Entropy, and the body and core were also recovered by Otto. In the midst of surveillance and conspiracy, it is difficult for Gray Snake to find an opportunity to attack.

But in this world where Sirin grew up healthily in anti-entropy... Gray Snake would find a way to get in touch with Sirin, and it was only natural to seek the help of the Herrscher of Void's ability.

Anyway, finding Kevin... It doesn't seem impossible, anyway, he will return sooner or later, it's just a matter of time, using what will definitely happen in the future as a bargaining chip, it is equivalent to Chen Yu whoring the world snake for nothing.

And Kevin is different from Otto, his philosophy of action is at least relatively easy to understand... At least he will try to avoid interfering with the forces of this generation fighting against the Honkai, and he will not attack the Human Herrscher. If you rescue him, at least Sirin is still safe.

If Sirin is asked to help, the World Snake can also owe a favor. After Chen Yu leaves this timeline, it can be regarded as a little more protection for the little pufferfish.

If you have to talk about the possible impact on Sirin... Maybe the first thing Kevin said when he came out to see her was-"Are you interested in becoming a cadre of the World Snake?"

Well, the pufferfish enters the paradise or something... the painting is beautiful.

"We can make beacons at your request, but we'll have to wait until we've done our thing."

Chen Yu nodded, and helped Xilin agree to Gray Snake's request.

"Then, as a transaction, we will provide you with an important piece of information."

Gray Snake stretched out his hand, and hacked the data directly to the information panel in Chen Yu's hand.

Chen Yu briefly browsed the information sent by Gray Snake——

As he had guessed before, Destiny was planning an arrest plan against the Second Herrscher.

An underground laboratory was secretly built as a bait to lure Sirin to come and make this place a birdcage to capture her.

And the location of this birdcage is... Siberia.

...What is this feeling of standing up from where I fell down?

The World Snake is indeed a large organization that has penetrated all walks of life for many years. Although this is a secret plan, they are still captured by them through clues, and they can clearly see the whole picture of the plan.

"Now that the deal has been concluded, we are waiting for good news from you two."

"Wait a minute, in accordance with the principle of fair trade, we will help you bring back the hero. It doesn't seem worthwhile for you to just give us the address."

Chen Yu imitated Hei Snake's tone and spoke in a leisurely manner.

It's a rare opportunity to get some benefits from the World Snake, so he should spend more time, and get all the snake's skin out of him.

If Otto really has a plan for Sirin... It may not be easy to stop it with anti-entropy alone, or in other words, with Chen Yu alone.

After all, Otto knew the anti-entropy executives too well, and the difference in rank was too great. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he could play them in his hands.

However, if you add the World Snake...

That would be an "unexpected" help for Otto.

Dangerous snakes can sometimes be companions.

Chapter 37

train to siberia

"So, what kind of assistance do you want us to provide?"

It is the bargaining session expected by Gray Snake. As a transaction, this is a natural stage.

"All-round assistance, after all, you don't want to see the Herrscher of the Sky broken in the hands of Destiny, right?"

Chen Yu looked at the purple hair dumpling beside him.

After hearing what he said, Sirin was obviously a little unconvinced. After all, she hadn't lost a single battle with Tianming in the past three years, so she was a little swollen.She actually wants Chen Yu to tell her the coordinates right now, and open a portal to bombard Tianming's laboratory indiscriminately.

"That's impossible. It's not yet the time to show your fangs to Destiny."

Gray Snake shook his head, and refused with a little regret.

"For the sake of self-preservation and concealment, we are unable to provide you with any military assistance during the attack on the laboratory by you and Lady Saint."

Gray Snakes lay out their principles.

Before that hero returns, the power of the World Snake must lie dormant under the deep sea and must not be revealed too much.

"Then, at least take a step back. After Sirin and I leave that research institute, I hope you can arrange personnel to pick us up."

Chen Yu turned to make another request.

He didn't expect the World Snake to help attack, but in the process of bargaining, first throwing a condition to the other party that they can't agree to is also an art of trading.This way, it will be easier for them to say yes to what is really requested.

"Yes, if you need it, we can assist you to retreat. There is a small town near the [Birdcage]. If you can get there, the World Snake can help you escape."

Gray Snake sent the coordinates to Chen Yu.

"However, arranging a retreat like this is almost like...you think you will encounter an enemy that is difficult to fight."

The fully awakened Second Herrscher, on the current earth, there are probably not many who can compete with it.

"...you always have to think about the worst, so be it."

"Then, our deal is concluded here, and I will retire, both of you."

"By the way, although you can't provide any assistance during the attack, before we set off, you can still provide some...weapons and equipment, right?"

"Insatiable greed is the worst quality a trader should possess, but...we can indeed provide you with what you want this time."

Gray Snake smiled indifferently—even though he was wearing a mask, it did sound like laughter.

"...By the way, the bishop of destiny, Otto Apocalypse, have you had any contact with him?"

Dust Feather asked.Of course, this is a question unrelated to this transaction, purely his personal curiosity.

"Hehe, are you worried about whether we have reached a deal with that man? Please rest assured..."

The Serpent's Eye had been watching him secretly for 500 years, long enough for them to come to a conclusion.

Gray Snake paused, then continued.

"That man... is an exquisite egoist. He is proficient in the world, understands people's hearts, and is good at using everything to achieve his own goals. He is the most untradable object in this world."

........................

The next day, on the train to Siberia.

"Human, why do we have to take the train back to that place?"

After obtaining the location of the research institute from Gray Snake, Chen Yu and Sirin did not immediately use the ability of the Herrscher of the Sky to go to the location of the research institute, but instead used trains. What can only be called primitive means of transport for movement.

From Tianqiong City, take a car to Siberia.

Chen Yu and Xilin sat together in the closed soft sleeper, and bought tickets for the other two beds with the help of money. There were only him and Xilin in this room.

Chen Yu was lowering her head and was busy typing something on her information panel, while Xilin lay on the window sill and looked out curiously, watching the iron lump lead her forward.

Well, for her who can conveniently open a portal to travel around the world, taking the train honestly is indeed quite a novel experience.

"You have fought against Destiny so many times. Although they can't beat you, they have already learned to use technical means to detect and track your Houkai reaction."

Chen Yu stopped what she was doing, freed up a hand, and lightly tapped the head of the little idiot beside her.

"I've looked through all your previous battle records and reports in the past few days. Didn't you find that your plan to destroy the research institute has become more and more difficult every time?"

"Woo...it seems to be true, but why did you hit me!"

Sirin protested aggrievedly, clutching her forehead.

"...For no reason, I just suddenly wanted to knock, hehe."

Chen Yu smiled, changed her expression, and explained to Sirin solemnly.

"As I said before, from now on, you can't use the Herrscher's power, nor can you use the Houkai power. You must completely disguise yourself as an ordinary girl, understand?"

"Ming, I understand..."

First of all, to avoid possible detection methods of Houkai energy, for this reason, Sirin must temporarily become an ordinary person for a period of time. Without using Houkai energy, even if it is the technology of destiny, there is no way to track Sirin's location Bar.

After sneaking into the base of the research institute, give them a surprise.
