Collapse, I save everything alone

"I see. Is this the method used to purify the erosion of the Desire Gem?"

After listening to Mingyu's statement about what happened in the Oceania branch, Otto nodded thoughtfully.

He did recover the HSN-b46 serum after the attack on the Oceania branch, and is currently conducting a fusion experiment with it and Cecilia's [Holy Blood], intending to develop a complete [Hershers Killer] as a backup for the awakening of the Herrscher of the Void.

but……

"I didn't expect that you actually had some dealings with Xilin from another parallel world... Hehe, this is really an unexpected gain."

Otto narrowed his eyes slightly.

His goal is to use the power of the Herrscher of the Void. Originally, there was only Kiana, a second-generation android, but now, there is another option.

"Tell me, how did you get to know that Xilin?"

he continued to ask.

Visitors from other parallel worlds are not easy to get to know.

"…in the quantum sea."

Mingyu answered truthfully.

Otto raised his eyebrows slightly:

"The Quantum Sea? How did you get in there?"

Tianming also has the means to enter the Quantum Sea. A few years ago, he sent A-level Valkyries Yulandel and Rita to a certain world to carry out a mission.

However, this is not an easy task. Even if it is destiny, it can only be achieved by relying on the relics and equipment left over from previous civilizations.

Anti-Entropy probably also has corresponding means and relics. Could it be... that they are relying on the power and technology of Anti-Entropy?

"It is achieved through the projection of [One Thousand Worlds and One Vehicle]."

Mingyu uttered an unfamiliar term.

Next, he demonstrated his ability of [Projection Magic] without reservation.

"You continue to surprise me more and more."

The young man in front of him actually possessed abilities similar to his Void Manzang, a power he called [Projection Magic].

Otto exclaimed after commanding Mingyu to demonstrate the ability.

The only ability of Mingyu recorded by Destiny is electromagnetic manipulation similar to that of the Herrscher of Thunder.

This ability called [Projection Magic] was known to Otto for the first time.

Moreover, this doesn't look like an ordinary power at all. With a mortal body, he has achieved something similar to the Void Wanzang... the First Ruler.

In this case, the reason why Mingyu can control electromagnetism is because he has contact with the third Herrscher, Raiden Mei?

Otto had reason to guess that Mingyu possessed some ability to obtain power similar to that of the Herrscher.

So... where does this ability similar to that of the First Ruler come from?

Otto didn't think too much about it and concluded that he probably got it from Walter Young.

Since it is possible to gain power from the First and Third Herrs, it should also be possible from the Second Herrs.

Naturally, the more preparations we make to resurrect Kallen, the better.

"You've given me so many surprises. Very good... Not choosing to kill you was indeed not a wrong decision."

After Mingyu had developed a close relationship with the third and fourth Herrschers, Otto had already decided to use [control] instead of [elimination].

And now, after understanding Mingyu's abilities, he is naturally even more reluctant to get rid of this talent.

After being completely brainwashed and controlled by Yu Duchen, Mingyu has become a puppet controlled by his orders.

It no longer mattered what Mingyu had originally intended to do, because now, under the influence of Yu Duchen, he had become an extension of his own will.

After that, let him return to St. Freya Academy normally and get along well with K423.

After he has thoroughly studied the One Vehicle of Thousand Worlds and the Tree of Imaginary Numbers... he will make further plans.

Otto was not overly immersed in the joy of the smooth progress of the plan to revive Kallen. He continued in a deep voice and asked:

"Mingyu, you should have a deeper secret..."

For example - how did he obtain the One Vehicle among a Thousand Worlds?

The Key of the Sky was unsealed not long ago and fell into the hands of Tianming.

But Mingyu entered the Quantum Sea earlier.

There must be other secrets involved.

Otto intended to continue exploring Mingyu's power, so he asked:

"Come on, tell me, what is the secret that has supported you to this point and made you grow so quickly?"

"My ability is——"

Mingyu's voice suddenly paused.

Just then, Otto heard a sound.

——The sound of a dead leaf falling.

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

The unspeakable and unchangeable time passed quietly, and another fallen leaf fell quietly from the ancient Bodhi tree.

When Mingyu regained consciousness, he found himself in such a quiet and peaceful area.

All he saw was a huge old tree and a gray-haired man leaning against the trunk.

"here it is……"

Mingyu tried to recall.

He was not unfamiliar with this place, this was Su's world bubble, [Sumeru Mustard Seed].

But, just now, he should have been facing Otto in the Bishop's Hall of Destiny, why did he suddenly appear here now...

As soon as he tried to recall what had happened before, he felt a severe pain in his head, as if it was about to explode.

Despite the pain, he still remembered something.

By the way, Otto should have been trying to hypnotize himself with Yu Duchen...what happened after that?

Since he has a certain resistance to the Key of God, theoretically he will not be completely hypnotized by Mimic Yu Duchen.

"Relax your mind. You have just suffered a strong mental attack. I am healing your mental damage."

Su's gentle voice came from not far away.

"……Thanks you."

I don't know what happened, but I'd like to say thank you anyway.

"Excuse me, what just happened--"

"Before that, we should greet each other."

Su opened his eyes and looked at Mingyu with his purple eyes:

"Long time no see, or...first time meeting?"

PS

The setting of the zeroth rated power of Xukong Wanzang here refers to the plot of the post-Honkai Impact 1st.

Although the effect of its zeroth rated power has not actually been reflected in the plot, the plan of the Hollow Manzang after Honkai Impact 1 is to amplify Lao Yang's gravity ability by tens of thousands of times to absorb all the Honkai energy on the moon. Therefore, it is reasonable to infer that the zeroth rated power of the Hollow Manzang is the high-multiplier amplification effect of the Mimic God Key.

Chapter 212 The Wish of the Sage

According to the timeline Mingyu is experiencing now, this sage in front of him is actually the first time he has interacted with him.

The original encounter when stealing the projection of Thousand Worlds One had long been erased by Mingyu.

But it was obvious that this sage already knew something.

He even took the initiative to rescue himself from Otto's hands.

Mingyu thought for a moment and answered truthfully:

"This is the second time for me, but it should be the first time for you."

Since the other party saved him, there was no need for him to lie anymore.

Su is the executor of the [Hengsha Project] and has been observing the timeline. Perhaps this is how he realized that he was repeatedly erasing the timeline and thus understood his own abilities.

The handsome man with gray hair smiled and said:

"exactly."

A dead leaf appeared in his hand, with some images remaining on it.

——That was the scene in a certain timeline when Mingyu first came to the [Sumeru Mustard Seed].

This sage who is overlooking the timeline is probably the first person who truly understands his own abilities.

However, after their last dealings, Mingyu also understood that this pioneer had no ill will towards him.

If he really wanted to harm me, he could have brainwashed and controlled him the last time they met, just like he did to Otto this time.

"So, Senior Su, can you tell me what happened just now?"

Mingyu asked again.

Su nodded and said softly:

"Otto... the descendant of Apokalis intends to use Yu Duchen to completely brainwash and control you, turning you into a puppet under his control."

"But, Yu Duchen probably can't do this to me..."

Mingyu said with some doubt.

According to the characteristics of the Void Wanzang, the effect of the simulated God's Key cannot surpass the real God's Key.

Therefore, Otto must have used other means that he didn't know about to control him.

Without Mingyu asking, Su answered his question:

"That bishop of destiny has released the zeroth rated power of the Void Ten Thousand Storehouses, amplifying the effect of Yu Duchen by a thousand times to affect you. As a price, he will no longer be able to use the Void Ten Thousand Storehouses to project Yu Duchen."

It was Xukong Wanzang who delivered the Key of God to the Apokalis family in this era, so he naturally knew the capabilities of the Key of God.

I see……

Xukong Wanzang's zeroth rated power... This is indeed an ability that has never been demonstrated in the original timeline, so Mingyu has no information in this regard.

"Once under Otto's control, all your secrets will be known to him, even your [Time Reversal]."

Sue continued.

Without his prompting, Ming Yu could understand the consequences of exposing everything——

Because his mind was completely under Otto's control, he had no way to actively use time reversal in that state, and could only become a "tool man" for Otto to advance his plan to resurrect Kallen.

With [Time Rewind] to make continuous attempts, Otto's pace of resurrecting Kallen will only accelerate and become more unscrupulous.

Thinking of the risks involved, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Although he had considered a lot and prepared a lot, he was still almost tricked by Otto and almost fell into the trap during the initial test phase.

Su whispered to comfort him:

"You don't need to blame yourself. In that environment, even if you wanted to use your abilities to defend yourself, you couldn't resist the Void Wanzang that had released its zeroth rated power."

The control effect of Yu Duchen has been amplified thousands of times. Even if you look for it in the historical torrent of this planet, few people can resist it.

Perhaps only strange people like Su, Aponia or Mistrylin can bear it.

"I understand... So, why would you help me, Senior Su?"

Mingyu asked with some curiosity.
