I, the anti-superman, have hacked into the chat group.

Otto sat behind these people, and from his position, he could see all the screens in the laboratory, on which scenes of parallel worlds were being displayed.

Some worlds are extremely similar to theirs, with similar characters, but their experiences are very different. For example, Kiana is not a clone, and she has become the world destroyed by the Herrscher of the End.

Some worlds seem completely unrelated to theirs. For example, a blue-haired woman with horns is working late into the night. If Bronya were here, she would definitely recognize this woman as Gan Yu, a friend from their group.

There are also many other scenes from other worlds, but these are not the scenes Otto was looking forward to.

"Continue the experiment. Why stop? It's not like the Divine Keys are running out of energy," Otto ordered.

The scientists dared not say anything more and could only let the experiment continue.

Six hours later, the energy inside the Divine Key was temporarily exhausted, and the experiment had to be suspended because the core needed to draw energy from the imaginary space again.

"That's all for today. We'll organize the data later and continue tomorrow," Otto said expressionlessly.

"Ah, we have to continue?" The scientists were taken aback. "Your Excellency, we've already analyzed more than we can handle. If we add more, we'll be working forever!"

“You don’t need to perfectly analyze this data, just roughly categorize and organize it, because this data is not the part we need.”

The scientists looked at each other, puzzled. They didn't know how Otto had come to this conclusion so directly.

The data displayed on the screen represents only a small portion of the total observations; much more data cannot be shown visually. Drawing conclusions directly from this situation would be too hasty.

However, the other party is, after all, a bishop, and may possess some intelligence that they are unaware of. The most important thing for an organization is for everyone to perform their duties.

Regardless of the circumstances, Otto is a bishop. He may usually keep many things to himself, but as the leader of the anti-Honkai organization, his actions should all be aimed at eliminating the Honkai.

The scientists stopped asking questions and began to carefully organize the data.

Otto got up and left the scene, heading to his secret laboratory.

The laboratory contains a Herrscher core called the Tranquil Gem, which is the core of the Herrscher of Death.

However, the Herrscher of Death has not yet appeared in this era. The Tranquility Gem comes from the Herrscher of the Void. She received help from the Honkai consciousness on the moon and gained four additional Herrscher cores in her body, including the core of the Herrscher of Death.

The core ability of the Herrscher of Death is actually controlling the decay and regeneration of cells and DNA, not truly controlling life and death.

Otto had long given up on using the power of the Herrscher of Death to revive Kallen. At this moment, he took out this core only to establish a weak connection with the Honkai, so as to convey information to the Honkai consciousness.

After Otto grasped the core, his consciousness was once again pulled into the pure white space.

Otto addressed the pure white figure before him, saying, "Corrupted consciousness, I've been doing as you said, so when will what you promised come true?"

"..."

The answer from the consciousness of the Collapse appeared in Otto's mind.

"Am I too hasty?" Otto frowned. "Of course I'm hasty. You have to understand, I'm doing this behind Superman's back. Once it's discovered, it will definitely bring them punishment, and the Second Divine Key will definitely be sealed away by them."

Otto's implication was that if the other party couldn't demonstrate the plan's feasibility, he wouldn't risk being discovered by Karl by cooperating with them.

While the chances of getting a resurrection item by building a good relationship with Superman are low, they are not entirely hopeless. However, if his cooperation with the Honkai consciousness is discovered, he will basically lose his path through Superman.

To convince Otto to make a decision, the Honkai consciousness needs to prove that its plan is better for Otto.

"..."

A message was transmitted to Otto, and in his mind, a city he had never seen before appeared.

It was a modern metropolis, bustling with people on the streets, just like most cities. But since the Honkai consciousness had shown it to Otto, it meant that this city had something special about it.

Soon, Otto saw in his mind a person in a green uniform, holding a ring, flying over the city, releasing green energy with every move, stopping one crime after another.

The image then continues upwards, ever upwards, until it breaks through the sky and leaves the starry sky and the universe.

This image contained far too much information for Otto's mind to process. He only remembered that a huge, radiant "branch" was slowly stretching out into the universe from beyond.

Otto leaned back in his chair and it took him a while to recover. Before he knew it, his consciousness had returned to reality.

The Tranquility Gem slipped from his hand and fell to the ground, signifying that his faint connection with the Honkai had been severed.

Otto picked up the Tranquility Gem, put it back in the container, and then took out another crystal from the laboratory.

The crystal is green and had previously been kept in a heavy lead box.

Otto opened the box, and a green light illuminated his entire head, making it appear green.

Combining the characteristics of being green and being housed in a lead box, there is no doubt that this is Kryptonite, Superman's greatest weakness.

"No one can stop me from resurrecting Kallen, not even... not even one," Otto said sternly.

He omitted the keyword "Superman" to prevent Carl from hearing it, and even though Carl was currently on Mars, he didn't reveal any details.

Since Bronya's first return, Otto has embarked on a journey to study Superman's backstory. He is well aware of how powerful Superman is, and he also understands his weaknesses.

Kryptonite.

Not long ago, Otto collected a sample from Bronya's clothes; it was kryptonite smoke that Bronya had picked up in the movie world.

Otto analyzed its structure and used the power of the First Divine Key, the Void Treasury, to recreate it.

The core of the Void Treasury is the core of the previous Herrscher of Reason. Its effect is understanding and reconstruction, recording data and knowledge to reproduce them, and it can even mimic the power of other Divine Keys.

Existing technology makes it difficult to replicate the complex structure of Kryptonite, but the power of the Herrscher can.

Each of them possesses a certain physical law, but it is extremely difficult to fully utilize it. Most Herrschers cannot even fully comprehend their own power.

Chapter 140 Peaceful Times

Mars, a temporary residence.

Karl said to Anna, "Try again. According to my research, Herrschers can theoretically control their core to leave their bodies. Perhaps the Herrscher personality will hinder you, but with the help of external forces, the chances of success are very high."

The source of the Honkai is outside the universe and is not a product of the existing scientific system, which has slowed down Karl's research progress. Kryptonians are never good at things involving metaphysics.

Fortunately, Anna has been actively cooperating with the treatment. This means that Karl doesn't need to develop the complete technology; providing Anna with some assistance is enough.

"Mm," Anna replied. She had just drunk the new potion Karl had created, which would affect her genes and make it easier for her to separate the Herrscher core.

Anna closed her eyes, feeling the power belonging to the Herrscher within her. This power existed in every corner of her body, and she could use it as long as she changed her mind.

But Anna has been educated to fight against Honkai since birth, and she doesn't want to become a Herrscher who only knows how to destroy civilization.

Driven by this belief, Anna controlled the power within her DNA to converge in her chest, while another consciousness tried to stop her, and the two became entangled.

At this moment, the potion provided by Karl took effect. The instability of the genes made it easier to separate the Herrscher core than to maintain it, and the scales of victory tilted in Anna's favor.

From Karl's perspective, an ice-blue gem gradually solidified on Anna's chest.

The gem trembled incessantly as it floated in mid-air, the Herrscher personality attempting to pull the core back.

Karl grabbed the gem and ripped it away from Anna. The Honkai energy emanating from its core was ignored by his powerful physique, and the cells that had just been damaged healed themselves.

"I did it! Mr. Superman, did you see that? I did it! I suppressed the Herrscher personality!" Anna jumped up and exclaimed excitedly.

For more than twenty days, she was in a state of torment almost every moment. The crazy Herrscher personality never gets tired, and if she is careless, she may never wake up again.

"Thank you, Mr. Superman. I definitely wouldn't have been able to make it without your help." Anna took a while to calm down.

Seeing her like this, Karl felt much better: "The key is that your own will is strong enough, otherwise even with my help, I couldn't save you."

Anna smiled and shook her head. She disagreed with Karl's point of view, but she didn't say anything to refute it.

Carl then changed the subject, saying, "It must have been very boring staying on Mars for so long. We can go back to Earth now."

"Can I go back in time?" Anna asked with some worry.

The chosen Herrschers will always be Herrschers. Even if they temporarily lose their core, they can find a way to re-form it. Anna is unsure whether humanity can accept her as she is.

Karl patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm here. Besides, you're not the first Herrscher to suppress her Herrscher personality. In fact, there is a Herrscher who is currently undergoing training as a Valkyrie."

"Oh, is that so? It's that Herrscher." Anna put aside her worries and asked with some curiosity.

Karl said, "The Third Herrscher, Raiden Mei, the Herrscher of Lightning, is the Herrscher who appeared in the Sky a few years ago. She gave up the power of the Herrscher and is now doing well at St. Freya Academy."

“St. Freya Academy is a place of outstanding people and resources. Adding another Herrscher like you wouldn’t be a problem. You are very suitable to stay there now.”

The Far East Herrscher Academy is not just a name; with the current number of Herrschers, plus Anna, you could easily make a mahjong table.

Anna nodded: "I see. Actually, there's no need to rush. But since you've admitted it, then okay, I'll listen to you and go to the Far East."

Upon hearing this, Carl immediately took action. Life on Mars was utterly boring, and if it weren't for the fear that Anna might develop psychological problems, he wouldn't want to stay on this planet full of sandstorms and wastelands.

He exchanged the materials from the chat group, built a space return capsule on the spot for Anna who had lost her powers, and then flew directly towards Earth with her.

Life at St. Freya Academy remained peaceful, and everyone was living comfortably.

Without Otto's arrangement for the Herrscher of the Void to awaken, Kiana's school life continued, and she spent all her time with Mei.

And now Bronya isn't competing with her anymore. After finding Seele, Bronya's mental state can be described in one word: blissfully happy.

His daily routine consisted of taking Seele around everywhere, as if he wanted to make up for the happy times he had lost over the past few years.

When Karl brought Anna to St. Freya Academy, everyone had a pleasant dinner together on the rooftop.

Seeing Carl in the sky, Kiana waved and shouted, "Superman, are you back from Mars? You've come at the perfect time! Come and try the feast Mei made!"

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Karl landed on the ground and said, “By the way, let me introduce you. This is Anna. You’ve heard Bronya mention her.”

Carl had mentioned his whereabouts in a chat group with Bronya, so he knew exactly what his trip to Mars was about.

The energetic Kiana was the first to step forward and greet Anna. Anna had just emerged from the return capsule when Kiana called out loudly:

"Anna, hello, hello. Your full name is Anna Schariac, right? Actually, my mother is also from the Schariac family. Can you tell me about it? I'm really curious."

Anna was not used to this sudden enthusiasm, but it was still much better than the malicious treatment humans had given to Herrschers that she had imagined.

"It seems this is a good place, just like Mr. Superman said," Anna thought.

Kiana warmly welcomed Anna and introduced her to Raiden Mei, who was also a Herrscher. The relationship between the group progressed very smoothly.

After taking a look, Karl felt reassured and went to Bronya.

"It seems like everyone is doing quite well."

“Because you, Superman, have solved so many things for us—finding Seele, stopping the World Serpent's plan, and settling the Herrscher of Ice. Since you've done all these things, our lives naturally won't be affected. Thank you,” Bronya said, pulling Seele along.

Karl said not to worry about it, then asked, "Didn't Otto contact you again? He's very curious about the chat group. Didn't he try to find out what was going on while I was away from Earth?"

Bronya shook her head and said, "No."

“Bronya hasn’t investigated Schicksal’s movements in depth during this time. She only knows that they have been conducting some kind of spatial experiment. The portal has caused quite a stir, and even photos of it almost leaked online.”

Carl took a bite of his rice ball and decided to go see Otto after he finished eating.

I must say, Raiden Mei is indeed quite good at cooking.
