Honkai, the behind-the-scenes simulator

【"No matter what, we can't give up, because this is the last resort to ensure the continuation of our civilization, and it is also the ultimate trump card in the face of destruction. At that time, it seems meaningless to struggle more, right?"】

【"So, even in the face of destruction, what is your plan that still makes me unacceptable?"】

["What is the plan, I don't think it is something that cannot be disclosed anyway. But you, do you really want to continue to inquire? I don't think you know what my plan is now, no matter from which angle Come and see."]

【"......What's the meaning?"】

【"When you learn about my plan, I'm afraid you will immediately want to stop me? In this case, in order to prevent my plan from being gradually destroyed, I can only implement it immediately."】

【"..."】

【"In this case, not only can you not stop my plan, but it is very likely that you will push me to implement the plan in advance. I'm afraid this is not what you want to see, right?"】

【"I--"】

【"What's more, even if you can resist destroying my plan, you probably won't be able to be so kind to me if you know the specific situation. The atmosphere of the flame-chasing moth is particularly tense now. If even Alicia If someone like you who brings comfort and encouragement to everyone loses his smile..."]

【"..."】

【"Even, if a conflict breaks out between you and me, then the already tense Moth Chasing the Flame may become more chaotic, and you don't want to see human resistance because this incident will eventually lead to failure, right? So , Sneak into my laboratory, don’t continue.”]

[You turn around calmly. 】

【Today, you are ready to believe in human efforts and hopes again. 】

[I hope again that even without your terrible plan, human civilization can usher in a future beyond the collapse. 】

【Therefore, you don’t want the conflicts caused by Alicia’s spying on your plan to lead to the failure of human beings. 】

【"Anyway, Alicia, please don't meddle in your own business." You politely advised, or begged. 】

["..., what are you thinking? I find that I still can't see your thoughts clearly." Alicia watched your leaving back and asked, "I used to think that your indifference The appearance of indifference and indifference is just an appearance, in fact, there should be something hot in your heart.”]

【"For this reason, I hope that you can guide the hot things in your heart. I hope that you can not only be a bystander, but also hope that the hot emotions in your heart can get the response you deserve."】

【"But, why until now..."】

【"Could it be that it was just my illusion that I thought you actually had fiery emotions in your heart and love for the people around you?"】

【Your footsteps pause slightly. 】

【"Maybe so."】

【You answered casually in a perfunctory tone, then continued to walk forward. 】

[Too much time has been wasted on unnecessary things, now you must go back to work as soon as possible. 】

Chapter 72 Prometheus: Don't Go

(Reminder in the front row: For the better development of the plot, the order of the follow-up Herrschers has been adjusted.)

[The conversation with Alicia is over, you were planning to go back to your research institute immediately to continue working. 】

[It's just that the emergency communication from the watch on your wrist makes you dispel this idea. 】

[It’s not like in the past, the abnormal Honkai energy that detected the outbreak of the Great Honkai can rise, so an internal meeting of the Moth of the Flame was urgently held. 】

[However, since an emergency meeting has been held, it may be of the same standard in terms of the degree of trouble. 】

【Or......】

[Without delay, you rushed to the meeting room of the Flaming Moth as quickly as possible, and then looked at the information displayed on the screen. 】

【"Ten and seven minutes ago, within a range of about 7 kilometers centered on Korosten in Europe, all the connections between cities and the Flaming Moth stronghold disappeared in an instant."】

[The intelligence personnel of the emergency liaison department stood on the rostrum and reported with a heavy tone. 】

【"In this incident, we were not able to observe the fluctuation of the Houkai energy, so we can only judge that the incident is suspected to be caused by the Herrscher."】

【"After all, the only one who can make such a huge area lose contact, even including a large number of fusion fighters, is the new Herrscher."】

【"And, as of now, the scope of lost contact is still expanding."】

["Is this the only information that can be obtained at present? Is there no intelligence about the enemy? Even the most basic?" someone asked. 】

【"Temporarily speaking, none of the combatants have been able to send back contact after discovering the enemy." The intelligence officer replied, "But we have urgently dispatched satellites for observation, hoping to obtain more intelligence."】

["It seems that we need to equip the fighters of the fire moths with combat recorders so that they can obtain more information in a timely manner." Someone whispered. 】

[However, this statement quickly attracted rebuttals. 】

【"In the past, the enemies we really needed to face were those Herrschers. Which one of them didn't sway their power with great fanfare, wishing that the whole world knew of their existence. Where did we need combat recorders to obtain information?"】

【"What's more, the current soldiers are physically and mentally exhausted, and the mental pressure is extremely high. If they are required to be under the surveillance of the camera at all times under such circumstances, will you be responsible for any trouble?"]

【Listen to the quarrel in your ears, you are unmoved at all, you just frown and try to analyze valuable clues from the current extremely scarce information. 】

[It can instantly lose all contact within a range of thousands of kilometers, and make everything in that area shrouded in fog. 】

[After all, such a huge area has been completely destroyed in an instant, and there is no time to transmit information. 】

[Or, does the enemy have some kind of ability to block communication? 】

[Or in other words...]

【You silently think about countermeasures against different types of enemies. 】

[Soon, a change appeared on the screen in the conference room, it was a satellite shot. 】

[Through the pictures transmitted back from the near-earth satellite, it can be seen that within the range of the lost contact, at least the terrain does not seem to have changed much, and the buildings do not seem to be damaged. 】

[However, all the scenes in the field of vision seem to be covered by a faint golden light, which is obviously a certain type of domain ability. 】

【"It seems that the enemy this time is not the type with extremely destructive power." Someone breathed a sigh of relief. 】

[Since it is not a very destructive type, humans can accept it. 】

[After all, both the Seventh Herrscher and the Ninth Herrscher are of the type with excessive destructive power, and a single person can easily sweep across the human continent. 】

【Human beings can no longer afford the destruction of a Herrscher of this size. 】

[Of course, it is also quite tricky for a type like the Herrscher of Consciousness that can plunge human society into chaos...]

[Well, speaking of it, since the appearance of the Herrscher of Flame, there seems to have been no Herrscher who can make humans feel "relaxed". 】

[After all, the satellite is in the sky, and the information that can be detected is limited after all.But from this limited information, quite a lot can already be seen. 】

[According to the information obtained, it has been confirmed that the enemy is the newly born Herrscher. 】

[The current performance of its ability can kill all life in a large area, but how it does it still needs more observations. 】

[However, at this time, the basic idea of ​​the crusade seems to be quite obvious. 】

[To deal with this kind of enemy that can cause a large-scale impact, the combat method is nothing more than trying to reach the shortest distance to launch a surprise attack, or directly sniping at an ultra-long-range distance. 】

[However, in order to make a final choice and determine the method of crusade, more specific information is needed. 】

[Not long after, more detailed information came. 】

【"Any machine that enters the range of the golden field will fail instantly. Combatants who reach the range by airborne will also die in a very short time, even fusion fighters are no exception."】

【"From this point of view, this Herrscher seems to have the ability to disable the machinery, or to affect the electric current. It is precisely because of this ability that it affects the biological current of the human body, causing the creatures within the range to die."】

["In addition to being able to affect the current, this Herrscher was not able to detect a large-scale abnormal phenomenon of Houkai energy when he was born, which may be the reason." You thought for a while and said, "From this Come on, even the energy of Houkai Neng will also be affected by Herrscher."]

【"It is also for this reason that fusion fighters who have achieved symbiosis with the Houkai beast factor in their bodies will not be able to last longer than ordinary people, but will die faster."】

【"Obviously the messenger of the Houkai, but the power can make the Houkai ineffective. I have to say that there is a subtle irony in it, just like the human beings are obviously trying to fight the disaster of the Houkai, but they have to use the help of the Houkai. Only bad forces can survive.”]

[You didn't just say it casually, but you noticed something. It seems that the collapse seems to be deliberately targeting human beings. 】

[Humanity pins their hope of fighting against Houkai on the Mu Continent, and the Ninth Herrscher, who is enough to destroy the entire continent, was born in the Mu Continent. 】

[When human beings were in turmoil due to the destruction of the Australian continent, what appeared was the Herrscher of Consciousness who could stir up negative thoughts and cause the entire human social order to collapse. 】

[Humans have borrowed a lot of the power of Houkai to create fusion warriors, God's Keys and even artificial Herrschers, and the Herrschers born this time are Herrschers with the ability to restrain Houkai. 】

[It feels as if Honkai is deliberately targeting the weaknesses of human beings in an attempt to put them to death. 】

【not to mention......】

【"And it would be too rash to assert that only electric energy and Houkai energy will be affected." You withdrew your slightly scattered thoughts and added, "Before that, maybe we should confirm more. "]

【"In any case, with the current situation, due to the characteristics of this Herrscher who can interfere with the Houkai energy and bioelectricity, it seems impossible to send an elite team to take a close combat approach."】

【"Long-range attack is the best way we can think of at present, so we need to choose a more appropriate attack method, so as not to fail the battle and startle the enemy."】

[After learning about Herrscher's power, she also got her own identification name: "Restraint". 】

【This identification name is in line with her characteristic of being able to limit Houkai energy and other energies. 】

【"In addition, you can also try to test the upper limit of this new Herrscher's ability. Even if she has the power to limit the Houkai energy, this power cannot be unlimited."】

【Mei pushed down her glasses and spoke with a very calm expression. 】

⑧56⒈78⒐[-]⒉ "Linglong"

【"If I were to speculate, I would infer that the upper limit of the Houkai energy that the Herrscher of Restraint can withstand is probably slightly higher than that of the Herrscher of the Stars."】

【"After all, the strength of the Herrschers born so far has generally increased in order of its Houkai power, and the upper limit of the Herrscher of Constraint is probably related to this."】

【"It is enough to easily destroy the Mu Continent, and the impact of the large comet caused the Antarctic Continent to be submerged. It seems difficult for the current human beings to achieve a Honkai energy higher than this level."】

[Even if all fusion fighters are dispatched together today, even if they don't hesitate to die, can they reach the upper limit of the Herrscher of Restraint? 】

【Mei frowned and stopped talking. 】

[Not long after, more detailed information about the abilities of the Herrscher of Constraint came back. 】

[The testers launched long-range attacks in different ways towards the restricted field below in the high altitude, including lightning, flame, ultraviolet laser weapons and sonic weapons. 】

[In the end, the lightning completely disappeared within a short period of time after entering the field, and it was not able to advance much distance at all, which means that the electric energy is invalid. 】

[The high-frequency sound wave weapon, which could turn rocks into loose dust, can't stir up any ripples at all, which means that the kinetic energy is invalid. 】

[The irradiated ultraviolet light beam was originally placed on more expectations by people. After all, the things in the field are not in a state of darkness and invisible, which means that the objects in it are still reflecting visible light. 】

[But after the light is irradiated, the frequency of the light keeps changing, and it is quickly weakened to the wavelength band of visible light. 】

[Light energy will also be weakened by the Herrscher's domain. 】

[Or it should be considered... Basically all energy will be weakened in the field, and the weakening of the Houkai energy in it is extremely serious. 】

[The final battle meeting made a decision to try with light energy weapons first. 】

[After all, compared with other attack methods, using high-frequency light, even if it is weakened, the final result is just a lower frequency. 】

[As long as the frequency of the light is high enough, it may not be reduced to the point where it is not lethal. 】

[With this in mind, the Flame Chasing Moth pinned its hopes on the high-energy gamma rays transformed by the Moonlight Throne equipment. 】

[After all, even the Herrscher of the Stars that destroyed the entire Mu Continent before was turned into ashes in an instant by high-energy gamma rays. 】

[And the process of converting Houkai energy into light energy with the Moonlight Throne equipment, when the energy supply is sufficient, the frequency of light can be infinitely increased, and the energy contained in it can be infinitely increased. 】

[If this is the case, there may be a real chance to kill the Herrscher of Restraint. 】

[This combat idea was quickly recognized, because the number of places destroyed by the Herrscher of Constraint is increasing. 】

[Although this Herrscher hasn't moved, he can turn more and more places into dead places by virtue of the ever-expanding restraint area. 】

[But now, whether it is still a well-preserved city or a surviving population, the number of human beings is running out, and the Herrscher of Restraint can no longer be allowed to continue to wreak havoc like this. 】

[The domain of the Herrscher is not only expanded on the plane, but also includes the sky. Ordinary flying equipment cannot reach this height. 】

[And the distance of thousands of kilometers in the restricted area has blocked all possibilities of sniping on the ground. 】

[In the end, accompanied by several elite fighters of the Moth Chaser wearing protective clothing, Prometheus rode the orbiter, manifested the Moonlight Throne equipment, and began to silently accumulate Houkai energy. 】

[The aircraft finally circled the earth's low-earth orbit and arrived at the sky above the Herrscher of Constraint. Prometheus, who had already fully charged, controlled the Moonlight Throne device manifested by himself and launched it with a bang. 】

[Several members of the combat team observed the result of the battle together, and everyone in the conference room of the Chasing Moth also watched from a distance. 】

[I saw that at the moment the Moonlight Throne was launched, the orbiter and the ground seemed to be connected by a beautiful blue-purple beam of light, which looked beautiful. 】

[This means...failed. 】

[Everyone who witnessed this phenomenon sighed in their hearts. 】

[The frequency of gamma rays far exceeds the band of visible light, so it should have been impossible to observe with the naked eye. 】

[But now I can witness the purple beam of light with my own eyes. This can only show that the energy of the original high-energy and high-frequency gamma rays has been drastically reduced after entering the field of the Law-Restrainer, and eventually even returned to the point where there is basically no space. Multi-lethal visible light band. 】
