Chapter 762 - Another Battlefield

When the Herrscher saw the curtain of light descending from the sky, her first reaction was to flee.

But now, even standing was the result of squeezing her body's potential. For a while, she could only watch as the canopy of light formed and enveloped her.

The ancient-looking sailing ship floating in the sky was the Noah's Ark that had set sail from the Mediterranean.

However, in contrast to its ancient style, at the bow of the Noah's Ark, in front of Bronya, were dozens of virtual screens filled with a sense of technology.

"Landing point confirmed, deviation from expected location calculation complete—"

"Canopy closure complete, output power awaiting calculation... Calculation complete. Currently activating Noah's Ark's second rated power, core output 39.7%."

"Big Sister Bronya, control of the Key of Remembrance has been interrupted," Seele said, holding the Key of Remembrance.

After communicating with Veliona and the Key of Remembrance, she immediately relayed this message to Bronya.

"Understood," Bronya just nodded and raised her hand to remove a virtual screen that recorded the Key of Remembrance.

"Senior Schrödinger," she turned to look at Schrödinger, who was sitting in a chair to the side. She nodded at her, her eyes asking a question.

"Don't worry, I'm ready," Schrödinger returned Bronya's nod and then raised her hand to gently tap the heavy helmet on her head, which was connected to dozens of tubes.

This was a simple full-immersion device, the login device for [UTOPIA], one of the three miracles of Future City. On the way here, Schrödinger had managed to create such a device with Shu's assistance.

She couldn't help but sigh that Shu's ability was really convenient. Just the fact that he could materialize her ideal materials was enough for Joyce to win him over at any cost.

Unfortunately, in the nearly a month she had been in contact with Shu, she hadn't seen any possibility of him being won over. On the contrary, she was a little tempted to switch jobs.

What? You ask where her loyalty lies?

What's so good about Future City? They didn't even pay for the five insurances and one housing fund, and she had to work 997 from time to time...

She actively ignored the memory of Joyce painstakingly persuading them to go back to rest at the experiment table one by one, and persuading them to go out and relax. Then she began to plan her idea of joining the Fire Moths with a clear conscience.

No, this was not the time to consider such things.

She had been left with aftereffects from her battle with Desire. The occasional distraction of her thoughts was not a small matter for a researcher.

What she had created with Shu's help was not just the helmet on her head. Beside her, Sirin and Frélle were also wearing the same helmets as her. The tubes on their helmets were connected to the same place, a complex device.

Three full-immersion helmets were really not difficult for Schrödinger. What really consumed her energy was this huge black box that was two or three meters high.

The seventy-third quantum cluster computer in the world—Ai-chan Hyperion!

And the current captain of this ship was Bronya, who was standing in front of the rudder. Seele and Sin Mal were Bronya's assistants in processing all the information.

When in battle, even Shu had to accept Bronya's command. Bronya's role in the overall battlefield was only higher than Salome's role in the Snow Wolf Squad, not lower!

"The three of you, let's connect," Bronya was busy processing the complicated information on the scene. One by one, routes were quickly deduced by her and put into the backup plan on the side to be retrieved.

And with Bronya's command, Sin Mal raised her hand and pressed a button on the huge black box. Countless liquids of different colors rushed into the huge helmets of the three of them through the pipes.

Among the three, only Sirin had never been in contact with such a thing.

She had been trapped in the Tower of Babylon since she was a child, and the only things she could come into contact with were those simple amusement facilities.

She had heard the word [UTOPIA] more than once these days, and she knew that the one they were wearing now was the same full-immersion device as [UTOPIA].

Although it was still unknown whether [UTOPIA] could still exist, this kind of experience... should be considered as having experienced it, right?

In her nervousness, Sirin only felt her vision sink, and then she fell into a shallow sleep.

It was the same for Frélle on the other side. Her vision blurred and she lost her conscious awareness, leaving only a hazy feeling... this feeling that she could wake up at any time also eased a lot of the tension in her heart.

And in between the two, Schrödinger's hand began to tremble slightly.

"Are you okay?" Sin Mal, who had been observing Schrödinger, was the first to notice her abnormality and immediately asked.

Schrödinger's fist clenched and loosened. After a series of uncomfortable twitches, it gradually stabilized.

"I'm fine..." Schrödinger's somewhat weak voice sounded again. "Their powers have been temporarily transferred. Bronya, you now have the highest operating authority of this ship."

A normal quantum cluster computer was bigger than a house. She had rushed to make such a small, shoddy version. It didn't have enough power to support the precise calculation of three Herrscher powers.

Sirin and Frélle were actually very unfamiliar with the use of their powers.

Frélle didn't even know what her abilities were, and Sirin's use of her powers was completely dependent on her imagination.

And in order to maximize the effect of these two incomplete powers, the control of their bodies had to be transferred through this full-immersion technology.

And how was this to be done?

The forbidden technology of Future City—the human brain computer.

Schrödinger used her own brain as a transfer station to be able to peacefully hand over the control of their bodies to the Noah's Ark itself.

And Bronya had the highest control of the Noah's Ark, which meant...

"Dual-core... no, tri-core..." the Herrscher below looked at the Noah's Ark in the sky, her face full of disbelief.

To be precise, it was quad-core... that white light was also an omnipotent power. The cooperation was so tacit. Even if they were not one, they were comrades-in-arms who cooperated tacitly...

Although the other party was high in the sky and could not directly participate in the battle like her and Gu Chu, there would be no lack of interference in terms of power.

The swirling wind and sand dispersed. The Herrscher held her chest and barely stood firm, feeling the recovery of her body. The Herrscher leaned against Xiezhi and looked at the two figures descending from the sky.

The most arrogant and dangerous aura had arrived.

"Herrscher! Your opponent is me!" It was a familiar, eye-catching white hair.

"Remember! My name is Kiana Kaslana!"

The Herrscher looked at the group of people who had taken up a fighting stance in front of her with a grim face. Chains with some black stripes began to emerge from her body and circled around her.

But her attention was already focused on Kiana.

Kaslana... could she be the same as Siegfried?

At least at first glance, the Herrscher did see this. Just like Siegfried, there was no filth or darkness at first glance. In the Herrscher's eyes, her whole body was glowing faintly.

Even if the other party did not have the armor filled with the aura of power, the other party would be the biggest obstacle in this battle.

Gu Chu was indeed right. Her power did not require that harsh judgment. As long as the other party had evil thoughts in their heart, she could cause them proportional damage.

The stronger the evil thoughts in the other party's heart, the correspondingly stronger she would be. This was also how she could withstand Shu's dimension-reducing blow and forcibly condense a defensive measure, freeing herself from the fatal blow.

The Herrscher glanced around. Everyone present had... wait, why did the little girl carrying the cross also...

Theresa inexplicably felt the Herrscher's gaze on her, which made her a little scared. She could only attribute it to the Herrscher thinking she was a child and a soft persimmon.

Among the people in front of her, the most seriously injured was Nicholas of the Snow Wolf Squad, but it was only a minor injury, and the impact on the battle was not great.

Salome and the others were only a little exhausted, and could still withstand a fierce battle.

For her, the only good news at present was that Cecilia and Bianka, the two who could temporarily hold her off from the front, were not here, and Gu Chu had suddenly gone crazy and entangled with Shu.

She wanted to use the connection of power between Herrschers to roughly look at the battlefield of Shu and Gu Chu, but the faint golden canopy in the sky blocked the spread of her power, and even distorted the form and landing point of her power through a reality-warping ability...

The other group of people on the field suddenly shivered collectively. A feeling of being spied on made them feel as if they were sitting on pins and needles.

But in fact, none of this group of people, who were dressed in suits and had groomed themselves to be extremely exquisite, had fled.

They all sat in their original positions. Even if they were sent flying to the ground by the aftershocks of the battle, they would get up as if nothing had happened, pat the sand off their bodies, and sit back down.

As ordinary people with weak bodies, they were out of place on this battlefield where gods were fighting. They might die here in the next second.

But what did it matter?

Now that they could stand here in suits and play a role in such an important battle, would they choose to die on a sickbed with a withered face?

They didn't care if they were sacrificing themselves for humanity. Such a grand thing was too grand for them.

They just felt that dying so casually was a great disservice to their identity. Since they still had power in their hands, why not give themselves a grand death?

The Fire Moths had already arrived. As an organization that controlled almost all the combat power in the apocalypse, their leader would never allow a second person in charge to appear within the Fire Moths.

They couldn't even squeeze into the core area. They could only rely on their own abilities to have some supporters in front of Otto.

They were all very clear that whether it was in terms of scheming or strategy, they were no match for Otto. Compared to their survival, it was more likely that they would be killed one day for some bizarre reason.

They would not accept that kind of death.

At least they still had the right to choose how they died!

The Herrscher's attack was instantaneous. The power instantly rushed towards Mei, who was beside Kiana. At least in her eyes, the "sins" on Mei were directly connected to Kiana. As long as she...

Okay, no need to think anymore.

The Herrscher secretly glanced at the Noah's Ark floating in the sky.

Her power had just been "deflected by a thousand pounds," and was deflected in another direction. And her power was aimed at people, so the victim was changed.

If she wanted to accurately distort her power onto a certain person, the ship in the sky couldn't do it. But Bronya could indeed fix it within a certain range.

The trajectories that had been calculated in advance came into play at this time, making the Herrscher's power fall accurately among the crowd.

A middle-aged man with a beautiful general's beard suddenly had a dazed look in his eyes. A group of middle-aged and elderly people around him gave him a silent look of respect.

About ten seconds later, the man's body trembled, and then exploded inch by inch from head to toe, splattering his blood and remains on everyone.

But everyone just wiped it off with disgust, said nothing, and continued to wait for the next "person to be judged."

So much so that many of them began to imagine how they would die.

No one was afraid. There was only that uncertain tension.

"I didn't expect that all of you who have wasted your lives would be as nervous as little children because of a roll call..." the fat woman who had come up with the idea smiled smugly at everyone.

Someone wanted to retort, but when he turned his head, he saw that the woman's eyes had also become empty.

It was her turn.

The person pursed his lips and turned his face away with disdain, no longer looking at her.

This time, it took a full twenty seconds before the woman's body began to change.

Everything inside her body seemed to have its own will, and was frantically drilling out from the surface of her skin, and then spreading out in the desert.

A stench of blood and grease mixed with other smells made the people around them unable to help but turn to the side and cover their noses.

"Bastard!" The moment she withdrew her power with a solemn expression, the expression on the Herrscher's face was already on the verge of collapsing.

Compared to Kiana, who was angrily trying to stop her from continuing to use her power, the anger in the Herrscher's heart was even more intense, and it was even on the verge of interfering with her thoughts!

Everyone was deeply sinful... no, that was not enough to describe this group of living beasts!!

A thousand cuts for them would be a charity! She must... must—

Because her power was scattered among those people, the Herrscher's own defense suddenly had a loophole, and Kiana's precise punch directly hit her face.

Kiana wanted to continue the pursuit, but Xiezhi took several hits as if it had gone mad and dragged its broken body to quickly rush in front of her, just to force her back two steps.

"You're too loyal!" Kiana had to stop and take two steps back, but her sharp eyes still saw that the remaining black on the Herrscher's chains was slowly fading.
