Honkai Simulator, is it me you are looking for?

On the side, the voice of a slightly immature little boy echoed around Bronya. Similarly, the figure of the little brown-haired boy kept flashing and disappearing around Bronya.

"Yes, thank you for your guidance, Mr. Walter."

Looking at his figure, Bronya nodded calmly and accelerated to fly ahead.

This cute little boy is Walter Young, the Herrscher of Reason, the leader of Anti-Entropy, who inherited the existence of the core of the Herrscher of Reason from Walter Joyce, the first Herrscher of the previous generation.

A year ago, in the anti-entropy experiment on the Quantum Sea, he rushed into the Quantum Sea in order to stop the eye of the abyss from running wild, and then disappeared.

Bronya didn't expect that she would get Walter's help when she entered the Quantum Sea.

In a biological sense, Walter has already ushered in death, but as a Herrscher, the most difficult thing to obtain is the peace of death—he is almost used to it.

If the will of the Herrscher of Space can still be reborn in Kiyana's body, then the Herrscher of Reason must have his own way to ensure his own survival.

In this way, Walter's will, relying on the core of the Herrscher of Reason and the Sea of ​​Quantum, barely maintained the integrity of his will, and created a maze and barrier that wrapped the Eye of the Abyss to protect the core of the Herrscher of Reason.

This is not only to wait for others to take out the core of the Herrscher of Reason, but also to prevent people with insufficient character from obtaining the power that they do not match.

After all, although anti-entropy colleagues may have gotten used to getting along with Herrschers, some newcomers even think that Herrschers are not all that bad, but Walter himself knows that the price of possessing this power represents endless struggle and persistence.

Walter has inherited the position of the Herrscher of Reason for more than 60 years. He should have entered the year of knowing his destiny, but he doesn't think that this kind of power that makes people stay young and gain powerful power is a blessing and gift. Instead, it's a curse and a cage.

Only Walter and a few close companions know that deep in his heart, there will be another self whispering constantly, asking him to take revenge on this world and destroy this terrible civilization.

If the mind is not strong enough to gain the power of the Herrscher of Reason, it will repeat the tragedy of the second collapse of the year - letting a little girl master the power of the Herrscher in hatred, the consequences will be terrifying.

This is also the reason why Walter resolutely opposed the destiny, and he learned from Bronya that not long ago, the core of the Herrscher of the Sky had once again caused a catastrophe.

Otto awakened the power of the Herrscher in a painful and desperate girl who had just learned that her father had been killed by her own hands. She was almost instantly controlled by the will of the Herrscher, without any room for resistance.

Walter couldn't let the Mandate of Heaven get his Herrsrscher core, but in this "defector from the Far Eastern Branch" and Cocolia's daughter, Bronya Zajcek, Walter saw the core of the human race. firm belief and tenacity.

"The third trial is ahead, Bronya. Through him, you can prove that your mind is strong enough to withstand the erosion of the Herrscher's core, and you will gain the right to travel unimpeded in the sea of ​​quantum—of course, you You can also find your sister, and if your father is still alive, you can also find him."

Walter had heard that Bronya, the daughter of the anti-entropy executor Cocolia, had been the victim of an accidental experiment, that she had gone deep into the Quantum Sea, and with the help of his father, Cocolia's lover, Xia escaped and shared a portion of the quantum power with her sister.

In the next few years, Cocolia continued to look for ways to find her lover, and her behavior was almost crazy, but perhaps because of the children, she still kept some bottom lines.

However, it was confirmed that the third Honkai had nothing to do with Cocolia. Although Walter remained vigilant against her, he was also willing to trust Cocolia's daughter.

And... Although the Quantum Sea is an inaccessible dead place for life, for some beings, the Quantum Sea is like a home that can be entered and exited at will, and Bronya is one of them.

"Be careful, Bronya, in the depths of the Quantum Sea, there are many existences that threaten the world. I stayed here just to stop those existences. Even if you get the core of the Herrscher of Reason, you must pay attention."

Bronya, on the other hand, nodded earnestly, and was rather happy. With Walter as an example, she at least knew that there was indeed a chance of surviving in the sea of ​​quantum, so father——

"When Bronya and father parted, he blocked the powerful enemies that appeared in the Quantum Sea for us, and Bronya will pay attention."

Stretching out her hand, she touched the sides of her head, on top of the spiral double ponytails. It was a bit old, but carefully washed, and the colorful bow hairpin her father gave her. Bronya took a deep breath.

In the sea of ​​quantum, Walter intercepted some residues of "possibility" and pieced them together into illusions. Although it looked very real at first, after careful study, some flaws could be found.

Maybe they did belong to some real world once, but now, it's just an illusion.

In the first world, Bronya saw it, and because she was rescued by the Valkyrie Cecilia, she became the mother of Cocolia, the Valkyrie of Destiny.

Bronya carried out the mission with her and the young teacher Himeko, and successfully rescued the boy named Joachim.

To be honest, this didn't touch Bronya much, because in her impression, Cocolia's mother has always been like this. Whether she is in Anti-Entropy or Destiny, her tenderness and love for children are all the same. will not change.

In the second world, Bronya saw Otto Apocalypse as a priest.

The him there is not the man who controls the destiny, but actually has the greatest power, but he will show his gentle side, loving and protecting every child seriously.

And all of this seems to be the result of his choice to abandon the responsibilities he should have assumed and wander the world with the one he loves—just a small choice that turns a villain into a good person.

Perhaps everyone's life will undergo earth-shaking changes because of small changes one after another.

However, these are not important. In the previous two illusions, Bronya briefly reunited with Xier and then separated. However, she is not very worried about Xier. After all, she has been with Xier for a long time, and she also believes in Xier's own ability .

Compared to the bluffing, bluffing Hei Xier who is a bit of a middle school student, maybe Xier is stronger and braver. The fighting power of the two is very strong, and Bronya doesn't need to worry too much.

At the same time, Bronya was more worried about the other person, no, she was vigilant.

The little girl who pretended to be a human-shaped machine and successfully broke into the anti-entropy interior—no, she is Gray Snake herself!

Bronya figured it out. In the beginning, the so-called "Grey Snakes" were all robots, and the petite and pitiful "Cyberbot" was the black hand who manipulated Gray Snake behind the scenes, that is, the real one. Gray snake!

However, in the previous two dreams, for some reason, Bronya did not find the Gray Snake at all.

What is she trying to do?What is her purpose?Bronya had to figure it out.

She promised her father that she must protect Xi'er and the other children, and more importantly, protect her mother. This matter is as important as finding her father.

Then, it seemed that she was finally going to reach the last trial site, and Bronya felt that the "nothingness" around her gradually became real, which was very similar to the appearance of the other two trial environments before entering.

But soon, Bronya heard Walter beside her, uttering a nervous shout!

"Wait, Bronya, don't go, the quantum fluctuation there is abnormal, the world bubble has changed, that is not the illusion I set up - go!"

However, he who lost his strength was one step too late after all.

----

When she opened her eyes again, Bronya found that she was already in a real space.

And the scene in front of her seemed familiar to Bronya?

"Cocolia Orphanage?!"

Although she had left the Cocolia Orphanage three years ago, Bronya would occasionally ask for leave to go back and have a look. This behavior of "communicating enemies inside and outside" was approved by the head of Teresa.

It wasn't until not long ago that Qiyana turned into the Herrscher of the Sky, and the Honkai that occurred spread to the orphanage, and countless Honkai beasts rushed in, and they had to leave the home where they had lived for a long time.

And Bronya can still remember that the room she is in is her own, but... it seems a little monotonous and simple?

Although she has forgotten many things about her father, Bronya can still remember the room he took care of for herself, the computer and game console that let Bronya know the whole world, and many Humu pillows With the Hom doll.

But now this room seems a bit... lacklustre?Apart from a small Hom doll, and a few storybooks, there was little entertainment to be found.

"Forget it, let's go to Xi'er first..."

Shaking her head, Bronya didn't care about these things, but walked into Xier's room next door. In the first two worlds, both of them can meet, so this time...

Walking into Xier's room, Bronya saw that the bedroom furnishings were even simpler. Xier was not in the room, and there seemed to be some paper full of small characters on her desk.

"This is... the X-10 experiment, qualified candidates, Xier and I, Xier, she—"

Bronya, on the other hand, fell into shock immediately after seeing the content on the paper. What was written on the paper was the X-10 experiment that had long been abolished.

The mother was unwilling to take this risk, bet their lives, and finally canceled the X-10 project, but what was written on the experiment sheet—it was Xier who voluntarily replaced herself and became a test subject! ! !

But at the moment when Bronya was in doubt, suddenly, the scenery in front of her changed.

She came to a well-protected laboratory, and watched the experiment in a ghostly manner. Mother Cocolia and other scientists were standing in front of a huge experimental table, looking at the experimental table, surrounded by various Surrounded by pipelines and machines... is Seele!

The X-10 experiment, the experiment that required the subject to take huge risks to explore ways to suppress the Houkai energy, started?

Bronia saw that Cocolia's mother was standing among the experimenters, staring at Xi'er in front of her, clenched her hands tightly, and tried to stop it several times, but finally let it go.

"This is a necessary thing, for the sake of the children... to start the experiment!"

In the end, she could only use such words to comfort herself.

In an instant, surging Houkai energy rushed towards Xi'er's petite body.

"Mom—Xie'er, Xi'er!"

Bronya immediately ran to Xier's side, and she could feel that the opposite Xier was still her sister in reality.

But soon, she saw that Xi'er's body dissipated between heaven and earth in less than a second.

"The experiment worked—no! Seele"

And Cocolia's mother also let out a desperate cry.

"Sister Bronya, it's okay, it's just an illusion——Xieer just played a role in it."

And just when Bronya was in a daze, a quantum butterfly appeared beside her, and Seele's appearance appeared.

"Xie'er—huh, as long as you're fine."

The two hugged together, and Bronya breathed a sigh of relief. Now the two of them have completely changed from "plot roles" to "bystanders".

"I...I mean, that me, in the X-10 experiment, fell into a quantum state. I in this world can't control the quantum power at will. I can only stay in the real world for a short time, and then I will sink into the quantum state. In the sea of ​​quantum."

Xier looked at the butterflies flying all over the sky in front of her, and felt a little sad for some reason—not because of her own fate, but because of Bronya and Mama Cocolia.

"Look, I'm looking for you, Sister Bronya... Well, it seems that this is not a good decision."

Immediately, the two saw that Xier instantly transformed into a combat form, without being hindered by the surrounding mecha troops, she traveled a hundred miles in an instant and returned to the Cocolia Orphanage.

But in the end, she just left one of her hair accessories with Bronya, and she didn't even meet her for the last time.

Immediately afterwards, Bronya came to Cocolia's office and applied to her to join the X-10 project, just to see Xier again.

The experiment was successful again, and Bronya entered the Quantum Realm.

"Sister Bronya... Hey, I—"

"Xieer...cough cough—"

The two girls, holding hands like this, watching the other "self", met in the sea of ​​quantum, hugged each other, and then...

The next second, the two sisters let go of their hands in embarrassment, and took a step in their respective directions, their faces blushing. Although their relationship is very good, it's not like-their first kiss is for father/dad!

Well, for the daughter, this kind of thinking seems to be a bit incorrect, but at least it is more normal than the girls in this illusion—they lack love here!

And then, Bronya, who returned to reality, also got the technology "Reloading Bunny" in Seele's stigmata, but she did not have the power of the quantum field, and as a price, she lost her own power forever. emotion, and the ability to move the legs.

Before the mechanical leg armor was finished, Bronya could only lie quietly on the bed, but there was no joy or sorrow in her heart. No matter how much she missed Xier, she couldn't feel a trace of sadness.

What changed even more was Cocolia's mother. One of her daughters disappeared and the other was seriously injured. However, in exchange for a large amount of precious research materials, this huge sunk cost made her unable to stop her plan.

In Changkong City, she directly caused a great collapse, and under the influence of the collapse, Raiden Mei became the third herrsrscher.

On that day, the entire Changkong City turned into a real hell, far worse than what Bronya remembered.

Afterwards, the Cocolia Orphanage also suffered annihilation in the fourth collapse, and many children died because of it. Cocolia also broke with Bronya completely, and the relationship will never return to the past...

"Sister Bronya..."

Seele came to Bronya's side again and hugged her from behind. Both of them looked a little frightened—the story of this world might be as terrifying as the Herrscher's destruction of the world.

However, after a moment of hesitation, Bronya still seemed to understand something.

"Bronya sees it clearly. In this world, Sister Raven is not here. The most important thing is... Father is not here!"

Bronya understood everything, why the X-10 experiment was carried out, and why her mother fell into madness step by step-because her father was not there.

The father is not very special, but he placed a small chip on the balance of fate, completely changing the lives of Bronya, Seele, and even everyone——

If, Mr. Walter said, this last "trial" has gotten out of control, Bronya thought, this world is the "feedback" made by the sea of ​​quantum to their hearts.

A world without fathers...absolutely very bad!

Bronya and Seele smiled at each other and held hands together. They understood the answer to this "trial".

"So, wherever father is—"

"—We must bring him back!"

And just after these words were uttered, the world around the two of them suddenly fainted like a wave of water...

The surrounding scene has once again returned to the nothingness of the quantum realm.

A glistening bluish-white core appeared not far in front of the two of them—the core of the Herrscher of Reason!

At the same time, not far from them, another small figure also emerged.

"Mom, don't, don't be influenced by your own memory, you want to pursue eternity, and father's eternity, how could you commit suicide just like this—impossible, it's definitely not you who gave up so easily, mother! This is a false illusion, Can't fool me!"

Gray Snake, this little girl with green hair and black pupils, suddenly opened her eyes, her snake-like pupils shone with a dark green brilliance, and several green lights and shadows like snakes suddenly appeared around her body, The phantoms around him were shattered.

"Huh, huh, huh—ah, big sisters, have you found the person you're looking for?"

After taking a few breaths, the little snake girl returned to her normal look, bowed gracefully to Bronya and the others, and then raised her hands high, as if preparing for some ceremony.

"Ha...Bronya, stop her, don't let her succeed, if you let those prisoners escape...the world will be in danger!"

In Bronya's ear, Walter Yang's weak voice came, urging her to stop that crazy girl.

"...Xie'er, you go get the Herrscher's core, you come to become the Herrscher of Reason, you can bear the core if you have stigmata, I'll stop her!"

After hesitating for a moment, Bronya gave up the chance to become the Herrscher of Reason, manipulated the heavy-armed bunny, and rushed towards the Gray Snake not far away.

"Ah, big sister, why did you stop me? Aren't our goals very similar? You come to find your father, and I want to release my mother... Everyone is a family-oriented child. We don't interfere with each other. Achieve your goal, okay?"
