Honkai, they all became my stigmata

The surrounding ground is full of wreckage of various scientific instruments and equipment, all of which are covered with thick dust. There are some charts and documents that have been torn in half on the wall of the research room, and all kinds of horrible things are scattered on the ground. Scientific magazines and books, and a large table next to it is piled up with various experimental equipment and materials.

Next to the big table is a destroyed computer, but it also looks like it has been around for some years. There are still some garbage and sundries in the corner, and the whole environment is obviously destroyed by humans.

And in the center of the entire laboratory, he saw a black ball.

It looked like some kind of energy supply device, Chen came to it and gently put his hand on it.

In an instant, he felt that the ball was absorbing the Houkai energy in his body by itself.

"interesting."

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, allowing it to continue absorbing the energy in his body.

Soon, after absorbing enough energy, the ball began to rotate slowly, glowing slightly, transforming the Honkai energy into other forms.

"Is this...some kind of device similar to [Moonlight Throne]?"

Looking at the performance of converting the Houkai energy into other forms of energy, he couldn't help but think of Wei Wei's last invention, [Moonlight Throne].

In any case, this sphere did start a certain program, and a projection was projected from it, reflected in the air.

Chen Yu looked around, moved a chair from a corner, and sat in front of the displayed picture.

Seeing this, Yuexia briskly ran over and sat on his lap, wanting to watch it with him.

Soon, text appeared on the screen.

【Preface】

I don't know who will find this ruin, and who will activate the device in the laboratory.

But I will record the truth of the matter here, for those who are destined to discover it.

...this diary has been translated in multiple languages, including all languages ​​of this civilization, as well as languages ​​we find in prehistoric civilizations.

In terms of probability, those who can discover and activate it should also be able to understand its content.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that you who are observing this diary still cannot understand our language, and I can only feel sorry for this.

In any case, I always feel that something should be passed on to future generations, hehe, even if this is just a diary with no practical significance...

The black box containing the diary information is a unique material. I am sure that even an attack at the Herrscher level cannot easily break through its defenses, so, I think, it should be able to persist until the complete destruction of human beings.

I have placed many diary devices like this in this laboratory and its vicinity, some are ostentatious, some are very hidden, and there is always one that can be passed down.

It is said to be a diary, but it is actually a real-time thought recording device. It will automatically read my thoughts and upload them to the cloud for storage, which is very convenient.

Am I talking a little too much?After all, people are about to die... If you say more, you can probably see it.

However, starting from the beginning, I think that is probably the problem that every civilization must encounter.

At first, no one cared about this disaster. It was just a wildfire, a drought, the extinction of a species, and the disappearance of a city. It was not until this disaster was closely related to everyone that people understood its full picture.

——We named this disaster [Honkai].

We fought against it and tried to find vitality, but the result cannot be said to be fruitless, and we even approached success for a time.

But... In the end, it was not Honkai that really destroyed human beings, but human beings themselves.

[2051, July, 7th]

I work under the banner of the United Council and am responsible for the research of Houkai energy.

After five years of research, our understanding of Honkai has finally taken another step forward, and we are no longer passively subjected to its persecution.

From the body of the defeated Herrscher, we have extracted a substance called the Herrscher's Core, which seems to be the source of the Herrscher's power, and in this case, we may also be able to use it.

Now, we can directly extract a certain kind of special energy from the Herrscher's core, and convert it into a variety of common energies with extremely low loss (about [-]/[-]), such as electrical energy, thermal energy, Light energy... And among them, the process of converting into electric energy has a loss rate of only about [-]/[-]...

I believe that we can go one step further in the research and utilization of Herrscher's core.

They have brought us disaster, but that is why we use the wreckage it leaves behind.

Human beings will definitely move towards a better future because of this.

By the way, my wife recently got pregnant, a daughter, and I haven't thought of a name for her yet.

[2053, July, 3th]

Another Herrscher came, [Metal Herrscher]... She caused a catastrophe in Paris, almost destroying half of the country.

This Herrscher has a body that is harder than any metal, and at the same time can easily manipulate metal substances-I don't know what price the combat troops paid to destroy her in the end.

I don't want to know the details of Herrscher's response to the battle, but it is obvious that each Herrscher who appears is stronger and more "targeted" than the last Herrscher... I don't know how to describe this It feels as if it knows our measures to deal with the collapse, and has taken targeted countermeasures.

Well, using the word "arms race" to describe it seems to be easier to understand.

Although I am an optimist, I believe that human beings will eventually defeat Honkai, but proper backup measures still need to be prepared.

The United Council decided to build a shelter underground in advance. If one day human beings are indeed unable to defeat Honkai and have to save fire, underground shelters will become an option.

The reason for this decision is that they have excavated some prehistoric relics in various places a long time ago, which is enough to prove that even after a catastrophic disaster, things underground have a chance to survive.

Of course, they also decided to build a space station in the satellite orbit of the earth, and store all the information and genes of the civilization of our era in it.

I have doubts about the safety and feasibility of the latter. Although the Herrscher attacks so far have only focused on cities where humans are active, and have not touched the outer layers of the earth... But maybe in the future when a certain giant flies by, How about destroying it easily?

All in all, I was entrusted with the construction and planning of dungeons.

[2057, July, 2th]

I spent some time and used the most advanced technology at this stage in the construction of the dungeon.

I have to say that it is my honor to be able to work in the United Council. All the people here sincerely want to work hard for the survival of mankind.

No one is for self-interest, no one is for power, all resources and technologies are truly shared together, making our efficiency unimaginable.

Long story short... let's take a look at my well-designed dungeon.

A lighting system that simulates the alternation of the sun and the moon, so that people living in it will not feel any abnormalities;

The space folding and splicing technology has greatly extended the space of the dungeon. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it the "underground country", thanks to another scientist's research on the world bubble;

The construction of the entire city is entirely based on AI and robot-assisted construction, so I was able to build the city alone in three years and hollowed out the underground space.

The energy supply system based on Herrscher's core can almost maintain the operation of the city for a long time, providing all the energy needs it needs.

I simulated everything human civilization should be in this dungeon to make it as realistic as possible, but seriously, I don't want it to be used one day.

Because that would mean that humanity is at the end of its rope.

It's just that some things, even if you don't use them, have to be there, and it's always a good habit to prepare for the back road.

Although I have been working underground, I will often be in contact with my wife and daughter, well, she is very cute and looks like her mother.

[2060, July, 11th]

Another lawyer appeared.

This time, the nature of this Herrscher is that she can devour any energy for endless growth... She is a super trouble for the earth with increasing concentration of Houkai energy.

All attacks have no effect on her, and she gets stronger every minute.

I even suspect that if she is allowed to absorb it endlessly, she may really be able to destroy this planet in the end.

Fortunately, she is not without weaknesses. After absorbing enough energy, she fell into a temporary state transition. We successfully sealed her through the Honkai freezing suppression device temporarily developed by the United Council...

But this time, humans paid a painful enough price. During her two days, fifteen hours, eight minutes and 12 seconds of survival, she destroyed two-thirds of the earth's surface.

...Human civilization has been destroyed to such an extent. To be honest, the social structure has long been on the verge of collapse.

The joint council finally decided to use the dungeon to gradually transfer the surviving humans to live in it, and it doesn't make much sense to continue to stick to the surface.

Not everyone can enter. After all, there is a limit to the number of places that can be accommodated in the dungeon. In the end, the joint council intends to draw lots to determine the candidates.

One very lucky thing is that my wife and daughter are all qualified, and as the builder of the dungeon, I also have the qualifications.

[2070, July, 2th]

... Ten years have passed.

From the first occasional contact to the last, we have lost touch with the surface.

This only means one thing, that is, the surface of the earth has been completely eroded by Houkai and completely destroyed.

Honkai has not spread to this underground world, it is still safe here.

Of course, there may be some other possibilities, but the underground joint council has decided not to contact the surface. After all, once the channel is opened, the consequences will be disastrous.

However, there have been more and more doubts about the dungeon recently, and a demonstration against the joint parliament just broke out this afternoon.

They questioned that all of this was a conspiracy and deception carried out by the United Council for their own ambitions for power, thinking that the collapse of the surface of the earth was over, and they wanted to return to the ground.

Although the situation is still under the control of the joint parliament, I feel a sense of crisis.

I should prepare something, um, backhand.

...Even if you don't have to use it, it has to exist.

By the way, my daughter has grown up exactly like her mother when she was young.

[2072, July, 8th]

Crazy, they are all crazy.

The voices of resistance have continued to expand in the past two years, and many people who originally supported us eventually chose to attack us.

Maybe there's something behind it that's manipulating it all, but it doesn't matter anymore.

The parade eventually escalated into a riot, the verbal crusade turned into eyeless knives and guns, and people's emotions exploded like a ignited powder keg.

The United Council...everyone has been killed except me.

We have worked so hard for the survival of human beings...and ended up like this in the end?

The person you guard chose to betray you.

I survived because I told them that only I know how to open the way to the surface.

... This gave me an extra chance to live for half a day. After leaving here, they will execute me in public.

They threatened me with my wife and daughter, and forced me to open the passage back to the surface... This group of scumbags.

I know very well that they will not spare me, nor my wife and daughter.

I did prepare the means of revenge.

I'm thankful that I'm used to preparing the backhand.

……

Let's die together, scumbags.

The sun will never rise again.

Chapter 13

Artificial Herrscher

"Citizens! Earth has been betrayed! Mankind has been betrayed! Civilization has been betrayed! We are all victims of a super-deception! The deception is so vast and terrifying that the gods would be shocked! The world is the same, and it is still safe , the past, present and future will be so, it is a symbol of eternity! What broke out is the insidious ambition of those in the United Council! They made up all this, just to build their underground dictatorial empire! They destroyed the earth!

"They have ruined human civilization! Citizens, citizens with conscience! Take up arms and save our planet! Save human civilization! We want to overthrow the rule of the United Parliament, break away from this false world, and return to what truly belongs to us under the blue sky!"

Among the crowd shrouded and driven by malice, there are always a few unique figures who spare no effort to spread the same views, inciting more and more people to join them.

This is like a spiritual plague, rapidly spreading and spreading among ordinary people.

No one can stop them anymore.

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

[2070, July, 2th]

These stupid guys, even if they send someone to monitor my operation with a gun on my back, they can't really understand what I'm doing.

Yes, they can't read it.

So, this is my chance...

These stupid guys don't know anything about the research on Honkai and Herrscher's core, the development and utilization of technology.

They will only let them clamor for freedom and the truth, and to return to the real blue sky, but where is the blue sky in the outside world?

The current surface of the earth is probably completely destroyed. What can be found outside are only the remnants of civilization.
