Chapter 145: A Set Time, A Set Place, Let the Honkai Appear!
Volume II: Crap! Humanity is Corroding the Honkai!
'The essence of life is the continuity of the movement of material information…'
'The Great Honkai introduces Honkai energy from the Imaginary side into reality. The physical chain reactions between Honkai energy cause massive physical destruction.'
'So theoretically, as long as we can control the information of the Honkai energy from the Imaginary side in one place, then we can make the Great Honkai only happen in that one place.'
'And that place is…'
"God damn it! Why does it have to be designed right above Nagazora City?! Are you people sick in the head?!"
"What kind of textbook tells you that you'll have something like this right over your head?! Are you trying to make us die even faster?!"
"Who the heck did this?!"
Hachiman Hikigaya was just about to start ranting about whatever idiot leader had this brain fart and caused such a terrifying situation.
Did they just decide to screw over the Far East as much as possible?
But, as Hachiman was raging, the world rarely followed his feelings.
And many things didn't even go the way Kiana wanted them to either.
She'd followed her original plan, went to school, studied diligently, but after like two months, she got dragged to work as Tesla's assistant.
That was because she'd pretty much learned everything there was to learn.
Her dedication to studying lasted less than two months before her own body just broke it.
Study? Screw studying!
The construction of the Academy City was faster than expected. In a short time, Kiana's status went from student to Tesla's research lackey.
Usually, the annoying tasks were all handled by her tentacles.
Sometimes, Raiden Mei and Bronya would be jealous. They wished they could learn as quickly as Kiana.
But, it wasn't possible. Even if they found a way to learn fast, that method would definitely have some issues.
That method was to directly enter the Stigmata space, use the unique genetic information of the Stigmata space, and then rapidly fill the brain with knowledge in a dream.
Kiana would upload the knowledge, and those with Stigmata would download it.
In terms of learning speed, it was much faster than a normal person's pace.
If Tesla's current research progress on living Stigmata continued, the teaching profession would be completely obsolete within a few years.
At least Tesla knew that they couldn't just get rid of all the teachers yet. They couldn't just let all those people starve to death, right?
Life in the Academy City was pretty calm, but the Herrscher of the Void wasn't having such an easy time.
The Herrscher of the Void's job was also simple. It was mainly to gather all the Honkai from the Imaginary side from around the world and then throw it at a specific place on Earth.
Meanwhile, Durandal was leading a team to clean up all the Honkai incidents around the world. Now, there was only one place where Honkai could still happen.
Noldrei had already monopolized the reproduction of the material basis of global Honkai energy.
There was only one place where the Honkai could erupt.
Academy City.
"The birth of a Honkai Herrscher needs two conditions. First, the individual needs to have a very high adaptability to Honkai energy, and second, enough Honkai energy needs to cause a material reaction, creating a Great Honkai."
"Theoretically speaking, as long as we can accurately gather all the individuals with high Honkai adaptability and focus the Honkai energy to erupt in one specific region, then we can create the Herrscher that we want within that region."
"Now there is only one thing that we need to do…"
Dr. Tesla tapped her finger lightly on the screen, the sound echoing in the quiet classroom.
And the eye on her forehead was shining brightly. This was the first time she'd come up with a plan that was so shocking to humanity.
She would implement a "double regulation plan" for the outbreak of the Great Honkai.
She was going to make the Honkai erupt at a set time and a set place, and make it explode according to what Noldrei wanted.
That tentacle monster was also a lazy bum. After gathering the Valkyries and most of the people with Honkai adaptability to the Academy City, he ordered Schicksal and Anti-Entropy to start the third step: the "targeted killing" of humanity.
To prevent new inhumane Honkai energy injection experiments, Noldrei had arranged a third step.
'The Balance of Civilization and Honkai Plan'
He would actively design all humans outside of Academy City with a 'Honkai Instant Death' physique.
After Noldrei learned about the will behind the Honkai and the existence of the 'God' from Otto, he made his third move.
Theoretically, Honkai energy needed to go through a wide-ranging selection of humans to find individuals powerful enough to become the hosts of a Herrscher.
In other words, all we had to do was reverse our way of thinking and act accordingly.
He would make all humans outside of Academy City completely unable to tolerate Honkai energy.
As soon as they came into contact with Honkai energy, these outsiders would die instantly. It wouldn't give the Honkai consciousness any chance to create a new, adaptable Herrscher.
That meant the Honkai consciousness could only choose a Herrscher host from the remaining people who had Honkai adaptability.
And all of those high-adaptability individuals had already been gathered by Noldrei into Academy City.
In this way, the Honkai consciousness wouldn't have any other choices outside of the Academy City.
No matter how much the 'God' of the Honkai caused Great Honkai or spread Honkai, there would be no soil for Herrschers to be born. And without the existence of a Herrscher, the Honkai's fighting power would shrink completely.
Noldrei artificially divided human civilization into two kinds of species, forcing Honkai to choose to cause Great Honkai within the Academy City to increase Honkai concentration.
In a short time, Noldrei used Schicksal and Anti-Entropy to completely lock down the location of the Honkai's arrival, both from material conditions and the internal structures of the civilization.
And this was also part of the "partial truth" that the students of Academy City learned from their textbooks.
The Honkai would definitely descend upon Nagazora City in the Far East.
From now on, the outside world would become an absolutely safe world.
And all of the Valkyries and mechas had been gathered in Nagazora City.
On this small piece of land, only a few dozen square kilometers, Noldrei had just asked Tesla to draw a circle.
Within this circle was the final arena that he'd designed for the new humans and the Honkai.
And now, the Honkai had already stretched out its first hand towards this place.
"According to the schedule, this Great Honkai should be coming about now…"
Dr. Tesla was very confident. She was sure that she would beat this Honkai eruption to the point where even its mom wouldn't recognize it.
Knock, knock, knock.
The sudden knocking interrupted Tesla's train of thought. She threw down the baton and frowned, "Come in."
Kiana walked in with a calm expression and asked, "Dr. Tesla, why did you call me? Weren't we supposed to start working on the new project?"
Tesla's head was full of question marks. She had already sent Kiana's orders long ago. Shouldn't Kiana be on standby on the battleship above Nagazora City right now?
"What are you talking about? Didn't I tell you to get ready for battle?"
"Huh?!" The white-haired dumpling's hair poofed up, her eyes showing confusion: "Wasn't it you who sent Bronya to call me over?"
Dr. Tesla was also confused and asked, "Didn't Bronya go with the Anti-Entropy people to prepare a long time ago? She's not even in the research lab."
The two quickly realized what was going on.
"Crap!"
