Playful! Collapse!

"It's okay if he's crazy, but why are you going crazy with him? If you keep going like this—"

"Of course I know that if this continues, the deputy leader's health will get worse and worse."

After interrupting Tesla with his tough words, Einstein's eyes showed helplessness.

"But since someone like him has made up his mind, we definitely can't persuade him."

"Rather than everyone ending up in a quarrel and him trying to find another way to get the core, I think it would be better to just agree to his request."

"There's an old saying in China that says it's better to unblock than to block. He has this idea, so it's our responsibility as technicians to help him realize his plan."

Faced with the two people who had reached a consensus, Tesla was a little dumbfounded.

She knew that she was the less respectable of the older Anti-Entropy members, and she also knew that her old friends had always been tolerant of her.

Now, looking at Einstein and Yuan Yan, she realized that her old friend was, in some sense, even more extreme than she was...

——Oh, I’m the only one who is emotionally conservative.

Although he didn't feel like a clown, Tesla, who realized this, felt a little amused and helpless.

"Thank you both doctors for your concern, but actually... Dr. Tesla was a bit too impatient earlier."

Looking at Tesla with a complicated expression and Einstein who had decided to assist him, Yuan Yan spoke to them very calmly.

"I have a way to suppress the influence of the Herrscher Core on me. If you don't believe me, you can test it with the pseudo-Herrscher Core I took from Yuno."

"Also, if possible, please don't misunderstand me too much."

"I was helpless during the incident in Changkong City. Normally, I still cherish my life very much."

"...Forget it, I'll just believe what you said for now."

After listening to Yuan Yan's additional explanation, Tesla immediately contacted Walter, who was still recuperating.

As expected, after she relayed Yuan Yan's words to Walter, Walter immediately agreed with Yuan Yan's idea with a complicated expression.

Oh, that’s what I expected.

Joachim and Yuan Yan are of the same type of person. He definitely understands what Yuan Yan is thinking better than me and Jiwotou.

Haha, now I feel really isolated.

"The leader has agreed. Then please come here with me."

After Einstein said this, Yuan Yan and Tesla followed Einstein and walked around the base for an unknown number of times before entering a small room deep in the base.

During the long period of time that followed, Einstein went through countless certifications before he was able to take out the two soul steel boxes containing the Pseudo-Hermeneutic Core and the Conquest Gem.

Looking at this complicated process, Yuan Yan's first thought was...

Oh, what came to his mind was Otto's ugly face that deserved a beating.

Since Anti-Entropy is so careful in preserving the core, Destiny's methods and procedures for preserving the core will only be more perfect.

So, it seems that Dr. Maki was able to leave Destiny with the Serenity Gem...

Alas, this guy is good at scientific research.

But his IQ outside of scientific research really makes people think he has a brain cramp.

As the main researcher of the Herrscher core implantation experiment, he should know how much Otto treasures the Serenity Gem.

He was actually able to leave Tianming with the Serenity Gem, and his partner was Cocolia...

You were plotted against by Otto and Cocolia at the same time. If you don't die, who will?

"Then please use this first."

After handing over the soul steel storage box containing the Pseudo-Hermenister core, Einstein couldn't help but twitch his eyes when he saw Yuan Yan take out the core and throw it directly into his mouth.

Although she had long known that Yuan Yan was extremely rough with her body, but...

I still find it too exciting to directly devour the Herrscher's core.

After swallowing the core of the Pseudo-Rulebreaker, Yuan Yan suddenly felt nauseous.

Unlike last time when he only felt a little numbness, this time, the moment he swallowed the core, he felt the poison begin to spread rapidly throughout his body.

Come to think of it, the poisonous vines created by Yuno herself can make Theresa lose her combat ability just by touching her.

The toxins contained in this core flow through his body, and the destructive power is definitely much greater.

As for why this thing didn’t have such destructive power last time - the pseudo-core wanted to be on the table before the real core?

At that time, Yuan Yan was using all his strength to drive the power of erosion and conquer the power brought to him by the gem. In this situation, the toxicity emitted by the pseudo-Herrs core had no time to deal with him before it was suppressed by the power of the other two genuine Herrs.

Yuan Yan immediately used the Fighting God's Heavenly Body to repair his body before it was further damaged.

At the same time, the moment the core entered his body, he activated the implantation skill and implanted the core into his body.

According to the introduction of the implanted skills, after the core of this [Magic Warrior] is implanted, it can not only reduce the consumption and negative effects of props to a certain extent, but also allow the core to enter a 'sleep' state to avoid excessive energy consumption.

After feeling that the core was successfully implanted into his body, Yuan Yan suddenly had the illusion that 'he and the core had become one'.

Oh, so now I can play the role of the Herrscher?

It doesn't feel like it's that simple.

[It certainly won't be that simple. After all, you are still a thief.]

[To Honkai, you are not the perfect apostle He chose... No, it's quite the opposite.]

You didn't fall for the hints of collapse, and you carefully guarded against the corrosive power within your body, not abusing it.

[Perhaps in Honkai's eyes, you are no longer a backup apostle worthy of recruitment, but a thief who has stolen the power of God.]

Oh, well said—but I still have to swallow the other core.

Now that you've said this much, how about giving me a hint?

[This system cannot reveal any unnecessary information, but since you have sincerely requested this system to give you a message, this system will mercifully tell you.]

Thank you very much.

[You should remember that in the original work, when Mei Raiden met Kevin, Kevin provided her with a way to transform back into the Herrscher of Thunder.]

[As long as she can absorb the Houkai energy released from the singularity left behind in Changkong City and awaken again as the Herrscher of Lightning, a new Herrscher core will condense in Mei's body, and the Conquest Gem in Kiana's body will disintegrate and disappear - at this point, you should understand, right?]

...What a hassle.

Even if the core of emotion is implanted in me, it is not 'mine'.

[Yes, after all, she is the real owner. As long as she knows this method, she can use it to forcibly remove the core from your body when the time is right.]

Then it would be better not to let her know about this.

"Deputy leader..."

After taking out the antidote that had been prepared long ago, Einstein looked at Yuan Yan, who was kneeling on one knee, with great concern.

"If it really doesn't work, please don't force it."

"Oh, actually I was just joking."

After standing up from the ground, Yuan Yan absorbed the water element into his body and spoke to the two of them expressionlessly.

"Haha, you must be scared. Actually, I don't feel there is anything wrong at all."

"you sure?"

Tesla, who was already feeling a little regretful, whispered to Einstein.

"Chicken Coop Head, I still think we're being too reckless."

"No, the deputy leader is really fine now."

Looking at Yuan Yan's steady demeanor, Einstein looked hesitantly at the other storage box in his hand.

"Okay, Doc, give it to me."

After snatching the Soul Steel storage box from Einstein's hand, Yuan Yan took out the Conquest Gem and casually threw the Herrscher Core into his mouth in front of the two of them.

But this time, even though Yuan Yan had made preparations and used the implantation skill on the core at the first moment, he still felt severe pain in his body because of the thunder power erupting from the core.

Yuan Yan once again activated the Fighting God's Body. Although he stopped the core from further damaging his body in time, he could still feel the pain lingering in his body.

"...You really are messing around."

Looking at Yuan Yan, who was pale but was able to stand firm this time, Tesla felt that he was really a little scared this time.

If Yuan Yan's eyes were not as calm as before, she would even begin to doubt whether Yuan Yan's heart had been devoured by the collapse, which was why he could absorb the two cores into his body so easily.

"I don't deny this, but I still stick to my previous point of view."

Yuan Yan took several deep breaths and then slowly exhaled the foul air. His eyes became extremely sharp.

"Something's not right. We don't have the luxury of time to keep chugging along and getting things done perfectly."

"Even though we, Anti-Entropy, have caught up with Destiny in terms of mid-to-low-level combat power, Destiny still has a lot of foundation accumulated over a long period of time."

"And now, this organization is still in Otto's hands... Doctors, I think you know better than me how disgusting this bitch is."

"...We'll talk about Otto later."

Looking at Yuan Yan, whose body was still emitting electric currents, Einstein gently fiddled with the ends of his hair and took back the two soul steel storage boxes from Yuan Yan.

"Although you, Deputy Alliance Leader, do not seem to have any major problems right now, please come with us to the observation room for a while."

"Over the next period of time, we will need to observe whether the Herrscher Core in your body experiences any abnormal movements, which could stimulate your body and cause adverse reactions."

"Ah, well...I really should take some time off."

Yuan Yan followed Einstein to the observation room, lay down on the bed for rest and observation, and closed his eyes.

Seeing that the electric current on Yuan Yan's body gradually disappeared and he began to snore, the two people who had been very nervous inside looked at each other.

"Chicken Coop Head, what do you think?"

"Tesla, there's definitely something wrong with him."

Looking at the Honkai energy value displayed on the instrument, Einstein frowned slightly.

"We saw him swallow the Herrscher core with our own eyes. Although Walter didn't come here, he was mentally prepared for Yuan Yan to go berserk."

"But... the strength of this Houkai energy..."

Looking at the Honkai energy intensity that didn't even reach 50HW, Einstein wondered whether he was still asleep or the instrument was broken.

"He now has three parts of the Herrscher's power in his body, right?"

"Is such that."

Tesla said with a strange expression after taking a look at the two cores that appeared in Yuan Yan's body in the perspective view.

"I can see that after he fell asleep, the two cores also fell asleep."

"Joachim was tortured for so many years... and yet 'they' still protected him."

"When did the Herrscher Core become such a friendly thing?"

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

In the illusory space, Yuan Yan, who seemed to be asleep, gradually opened his eyes.

"Well, it seems that this function is working normally."

[This is not nonsense. The capabilities provided by this system can certainly be used normally under normal circumstances.]

【Home】, this is the name of the new function unlocked by the system.

As an ordinary player who has played the game, Yuan Yan certainly knows the general use of this function.

In some games, the home is the player's 'back garden'.

Players can build buildings here, harvest vegetables, make elixirs, and purchase some special items.

Although the branch functions in the home function now need to wait for Yuan Yan to set up and build buildings before they can be completed, but this thing...

Well, at least the future is promising.

And since he got the home system, the home system unlocked a building first - the warehouse.

Since Yuan Yan has the skill [Storage Space], the system generously connects the storage space and the warehouse space directly.

Changkong City was saved, and I gained stronger power. Even the burden of this power was handled by the skills given by the system.

Although Kiana probably went to the Far East Branch, the current situation is at least much better than that in the original work.
