Disaster Simulator, global collapse begins.

Otto has experience in this area.

I don't know how Elke stole the Destiny data.

Implanting a Herrscher core into a suitable body...

Part Three: How to Scientifically Create the Lawyer Core.

It draws on an invention from a previous generation: the unnumbered key—the blank key.

The Valkyrie armor was developed based on the Blank Key that Schicksal found when excavating ruins.

The Blank Key is a set of armor that can be embedded into the Herrscher core.

Unlike other Divine Keys, the Blank Key incorporates the user's body as part of itself.

The law states that "the Honkai energy of Herrschers exists in the imaginary space, and the core of a Herrscher is the key to unlocking the imaginary space."

The Blank Key connects the Herrscher Core to the human body through the armor.

To enable humans to connect to the imaginary space in a short period of time and become Heralds.

—This is what Himeko wore when she fought the Herrscher of the Void.

In Elke's plan, he wants to reverse the entire power supply system of the Blank Key!

He drew a triangle and wrote the words "Lawyer" in the center.

The words "Human Core Honkai Energy" are written on the three corners.

Encircle humanity and the core.

The Blank Key allows a person to become a temporary Herrscher and extract and use Honkai energy when both of these conditions are present.

Then, the blank key after the reversal.

It is possible to create a core when there are both humans and sufficient Honkai energy in the surrounding environment!

By artificially simulating natural phenomena, absorbing the surrounding decay, and opening the door to the imaginary space.

"Wow, this kid's got some skills!" Chen Jie gasped, ignoring the trend of global warming.

He even stole the research data on the Blank Key.

This thing is probably considered a top secret by Schicksal, even higher than the creation of the Herrscher.

Next is the design blueprint for the Reverse Key.

Shocking, shocking...

Chen Jie has been shocked enough today.

Immediately, he realized something was wrong.

Human energy and time are limited!

In the memory synchronization, he knew the vast majority of Elke's energy.

Even if he used all his remaining hidden time to learn this knowledge, he still wouldn't reach such a high level.

The design of this Reverse Key is already at a very high level of completion.

In short, Chen Jie only needs a laboratory of similar size to the Babylon Laboratory and an expert in Honkai mechanics to build it according to the blueprints.

Bringing reality back through the dimensional gap.

Using the collapse of Grivil Town as a springboard, ascend the stairs known as the Herrscher!

The Reversal Key was definitely not designed by Elke.

Even with an extraordinary brain, it's impossible; Chen Jie, who has the same brain, is confident in this.

He must have collaborators he is currently unaware of.

The collaborator must be someone of considerable status or influence to be able to obtain confidential information about Destiny.

Destiny, the people within Anti-Entropy or the World Serpent.

Use the process of elimination.

It's impossible for someone outside of the chosen one to conduct these researches behind Otto's back.

It's not the World Serpent. Among the World Serpents, the only ones who can be considered research talents are Jackal and the Englishman Vilvie and Mebius from Paradise.

Jackal and Mebius lean more towards biotechnology, while Velvet's designs also have a strong personal style.

Eliminate all impossibilities, and whatever remains, however unbelievable, must be the truth.

"Elke, are you cooperating with Anti-Entropy?"

How did he come into contact with entropy reversal?

Is this a transaction?

It is indeed possible to acquire certain knowledge about the future.

How far has their cooperation progressed?

Chen Jie's rapidly spinning brain conjured up a series of questions and guesses.

However, he did not allow himself to continue thinking about it, because speculation based on conjecture is meaningless.

He believed that as he continued reading, many of his questions would be answered.

"So, are you satisfied with my gift?"

I'm satisfied, but I hope this kind of split-type problem won't occur again in the next simulation.

"I'm sure you're wondering why I designed these games... because they're so much fun!"

"Only those who complete the game deserve the reward."

"The same reward, but the huge boost after completing the game now feels much better than the reward from directly inheriting the memories. You have to admit that, right?"

"Also, I believe you retrieved all my deposited items."

"Hmm, that means you've become a seasoned riddle solver, knowing how to find the next riddle on your own."

He predicted what I predicted!

Chen Jie felt completely controlled.

"Tell me the truth."

"My memories also awakened in stages as I grew up. At first, I thought I was Chen Jie, and I woke up to find myself in the Honkai Impact world."

"Then, after some time, I remembered the time travel and the simulator, and I remembered your memories of simulating time and time again. After some analysis."

"—Oh no, I've created a clone!"

"If you don't choose to enter in your true form, we'll probably live out our lives like this, and after we die, all our memories and experiences will return to the spiral of our original bodies."

“But I already know the ending from your memories... You will definitely be involved in this simulation in person.”

"I, Elke, am destined to be assimilated and disappear."

"You know that feeling, right? It's like knowing that the world is collapsing and will eventually perish in six months, and you know the countdown to death."

"However, I am born from you, and I share the same way of thinking and ideals as you."

"I am not afraid of death."

"I just want to leave some unique traces of myself."

Looking at the strokes of the pen, Elke's hand trembled slightly as he wrote these words.

"terribly sorry."

"Let's play this game together until the end. It won't take up too much of your time."

It's reversed.

At first, Chen Jie thought that Elke's convoluted methods, like those of a riddle teller, were annoying.

But after reading this, I just couldn't bring myself to hate him.

"The mystery is the remaining boxes?"

Chen Jie was about to open them all when he discovered that each one had a combination lock.

Furthermore, a notice is prominently displayed warning that the device contains precision instruments and that forcibly unlocking it will damage it.

Following his own train of thought, he picked up the information from the Blank Key, quickly flipped through the pages, and then shook it.

Sheets of paper, like bookmarks, fell out from between the pages.

Alright, another mystery to solve.

It seems the Riddler was better off dying and leaving the Honkai world.

……

Chapter 40 The Blonde-Haired Green Man Who Came to the Door (Please add to your favorites and recommend)

The contents of the paper look like a puzzle game.

It was covered with complex mathematical formulas, the kind that make your scalp tingle just by looking at it.

Arrange them according to their numbers.

The first one is quite normal; around that time, Europeans and Americans really enjoyed crossword puzzles in newspapers.

Following the clues, Chen Jie solved the mystery in less than two minutes and then opened the box with the corresponding number.

That was a Guy Fawkes mask.

In other words, the iconic, terrifying, grinning mask from V for Vendetta is frequently used by hackers.

Judging from the wear and tear, Elke must have used it more than once.

A mask? To conceal one's identity!

Was he communicating with anti-entropy while wearing this mask?

Chen Jie's gaze shifted to the second sheet of paper.

The second sheet of paper is still a crossword puzzle, but it's a bit different now. It's three-dimensional, with a vertical Z-axis added in addition to the XY plane.

However, this was still no challenge for Chen Jie.

It took about ten minutes to unravel.

The second box contains a voice changer.

It fits perfectly behind the mask and, when used in conjunction, transforms his voice into a synthesized sound indistinguishable by gender or age.

The third crossword puzzle was even stranger.

It has been upgraded to a more difficult spherical coordinate system, where all the text is nested into the sphere according to a pattern, and the puzzle is solved layer by layer.

Fortunately, there is still a solution.

More than half an hour later, Chen Jie opened the third box.

A mechanical part.

It's unclear what its purpose is; it likely requires subsequent parts to assemble and combine with it.

The fourth word puzzle...

Damn, four-dimensional.

It is no longer possible to draw the corresponding model; we can only calculate it using mathematical formulas.

Looking at the next few puzzles, it seems to confirm his guess that the whole thing is starting to drift towards a higher dimension of superstring theory.

Some of Chen Jie's problems were so bad that he couldn't even understand the formulas anymore.

Got it, this isn't a test of word-filling skills, it's a math test!

If it were before, from a malicious perspective, Chen Jie would only think that this little brat was playing a prank on someone.

Looking back now, the previous game can be said to have helped him build a mental palace.

Without the motivation and impetus of the Elk game, Chen Jie estimated that it would have taken him two years, or even longer.

This word-matching game uses many words that actually represent the original storyline, history, and future of the Honkai Impact 3rd world.

This is to help him remember all of this!
