"My superpower awakening serum complements human genes."
"Maybe Himeko's genes are even more suited for the hyper-evolution procedure now?"
Takumi had acquired a lot of knowledge regarding the hyper-evolution process.
Based on his analysis, Himeko seemed to be a very good fit for the operation now.
If that proved true, then perhaps the future of superpowered individuals could lie in becoming fusion warriors, toodeciding what genes to fuse based on their abilities.
Mobius's eyes lit up instantly after hearing this.
"Let's go!"
"Cangxuan, Danzhu, Klein, come help out!"
If this worked, it would definitely be worth researching!
Calling her assistants, Mobius eagerly grabbed Himeko and pulled her toward the operating room Takumi had already prepared.
Everything in the room had been built by Takumi, based on the equipment from the Elysian Realm.
Seeing this, the others quietly waited.
Takumi turned his gaze toward Kevin.
"Let's go to the moon."
"Mei, while you're here, take this chance to learn from these MANTIS warriors."
"They're your seniors, after all."
"I'll still be around for a few more days."
"How much you can learn from them is up to you."
After speaking to Kevin, Takumi reminded Mei again.
He encouraged her to study seriously under these former era elites. After all, every one of them was a powerhouse.
If she wasted this opportunity, Takumi might just end up taking all the benefits with him.
Hearing Takumi's advice, Mei quickly nodded.
"Okay!"
Of courseshe understood how formidable these MANTIS were.
To learn from them properly would definitely be worthwhile.
After giving his instructions, Takumi left with Kevin.
With the help of the Herrscher of the Void's authority, Takumi teleported in the blink of an eye, taking Kevin to the moon.
Looking at the barren lunar surface, Kevin's mind was momentarily dazed.
It felt as though the Final Battle had just happened yesterday.
But in reality, more than ten thousand years had passed.
Takumi scanned the place and soon flew off. Kevin quickly followed.
Before long, they arrived at a massive ruin.
"Let's first recover Dr. Mei."
"And the other Flame-Chasers as well."
Hearing this, Kevin nodded. No problem.
Since they were here, he would follow Takumi's lead.
Takumi quickly locked onto the world bubbles and activated them.
In the next moment, two spectral figures materialized before them.
Upon seeing the familiar silhouette, Kevin froze.
"Mei!!"
Dr. Mei also reacted to his voice.
"Kevin? This is...?"
She was stunned. She had assumed a future generation had activated the world bubble.
But it was Kevin?
"Let's talk later. First, I'll bring you back."
Takumi interrupted the reunion and began reviving Dr. Mei.
Her soul was also drawn back in the process.
Feeling her body again, Dr. Mei was surprised.
"This...?"
Was she alive again?
Who exactly was this man?
She frowned, puzzled.
After reviving Dr. Mei, Takumi opened a channel to the Imaginary Space.
"You go in first. I want to check out this world's Cocoon of Finality."
"Kevin, just explain everything to Dr. Mei."
"Oh, and by the way, you can touch Dr. Mei now!"
"There won't be any issues."
Takumi added with a smile.
He had strengthened Dr. Mei's body, so Kevin didn't have to worry about harming her with his cold temperature anymore.
Kevin nodded.
"Thank you! Mei... let's go."
After hesitating briefly, he reached out and took Dr. Mei's hand, guiding her into the Imaginary Space.
Dr. Mei was surprised againshe only now realized her physical condition had improved dramatically.
Her doubts deepened.
She planned to question Kevin thoroughly later.
...
Once Kevin and Dr. Mei had left, Takumi turned his gaze to Subject SeventeenPrometheus.
"Prometheus, take me to the Cocoon of Finality."
Takumi smiled at the figure who looked just like Bronya.
At the same time, he snapped a picture and sent it to the chat group.
Takumi:
[Image]
[@Bronya, look, Pudding Duck!!]
After sending the message, Takumi closed the chat.
Prometheus didn't hesitate. Her body emitted a soft glow, and she vanished with Takumi.
When they reappeared, they were in a strange space.
There was a large egg therethe Cocoon of Finality.
As soon as Takumi arrived, he could clearly feel its joy.
And he could also feel that he was suppressing it?
Realizing this, Takumi's expression became complicated.
"You've felt it, haven't you?"
"The Cocoon of Finality seems to really like you."
"Also, your rank appears to be higher than its."
Prometheus finally spoke.
She had noticed this the moment Takumi arrived.
As the super AI designed by Dr. Mei, and also the shackle of the Honkai Will, she understood what this meant.
She also knew that Takumi possessed the power of Finality.
Looking at the Cocoon of Finality, Takumi reached out and touched it.
He began absorbing all the information stored within it.
YesTakumi intended to absorb the Cocoon.
Once deployed, the Cocoon was unowned.
Takumi faced no resistance in absorbing it.
In fact, it seemed eager to merge with him.
As it fused with Takumi, he discovered deeper connections with Mei and the others.
If necessary, Takumi could even retrieve their Herrscher powers.
In other words, he was replacing the Cocoon, becoming this world's embodiment of Finality.
And his connection with the Imaginary Tree had deepened as well.
From the very moment he entered this world, he had sensed its unusual friendliness toward him.
Now, it was treating him like its own son.
Chapter 143: The World is Like Dust
Prometheus watched as Takumi directly absorbed the Cocoon of Finality.
She was instantly stunned.
As the Cocoon of Finality was completely absorbed by Takumi, the connection between Prometheus and the Cocoon was also severed.
Instead, the connection transferred to Takumi.
Aside from that, Takumi's authorities increased as well.
And, he also understood many things.
"Did I just pick up an instruction manual?"
The Herrscher's authorities aren't fixed.
You can even turn some of your mastered knowledge into your own authority.
For example, Takumi could fully convert the magic he already knows into a new authority.
And there are other power systems too.
In fact, right now Takumi could create quite a few new authorities.
He could even subdivide and break down all the authorities he possesses.
This time, it's as if Takumi found an instruction manual.
Thinking of this, Takumi couldn't help but feel quite pleased inside.
It looks like he still needs to research his abilities thoroughly.
The trial for civilization can also come to an end.
With that in mind, Takumi silently began revising things.
Honkai has ended.
When Takumi finished adjusting things, the Honkai Beasts of this world ceased their activity.
And gradually, they all disappeared.
This greatly surprised both the people of Destiny and Anti-Entropy.
They had no idea what had happened.
But, for now, no one was there to explain it to them.
"The Honkai is gone?"
Prometheus was quite shocked.
Hearing her, Takumi nodded.
"Yes."
"The Honkai is over."
"Next, Dr. Mei and the others will leave this world with me."
"Prometheus."
"You come too!"
"Now, you belong to me."
"Just right, my world still needs a super terminal."
Takumi smiled at Prometheus.
At this point, Prometheus was already connected to Takumi.
Although Takumi also had his own AI, it still wasn't quite as good as Prometheus.
He planned to raise a duck himself!!
Hearing this, Prometheus nodded.
She didn't refuse.
She agreed to this right away.
The two of them quickly settled the matter.
Then, Takumi glanced at the situation here and immediately opened a path through the Imaginary Number Channel for Prometheus to enter.
"You go in first."
"Next, I'll make a trip to the Sea of Quanta."
Now that everything here was done, it was time to head to the Sea of Quanta.
He wanted to get a close look at the Imaginary Tree.
And see if he could find a passage to Teyvat or Honkai: Star Rail.
Hearing this, Prometheus nodded.
She didn't say anything, simply turning and entering Takumi's imaginary space.
Takumi hoped Bronya wouldn't be too shocked when she saw her.
Thinking this, Takumi couldn't help but find it amusing.
After sending Prometheus off, Takumi sprang into action.
He headed straight into the Sea of Quanta.
Upon entering, Takumi felt as if he had come home.
Even the Sea of Quanta welcomed Takumi.
Some of the creatures living in the Sea of Quanta didn't even dare to approach Takumi.
At this moment, Takumi also saw the enormous Imaginary Tree.
World bubbles hung from its branches.
Takumi even saw many world bubbles falling into the Sea of Quanta.
Floating in the Sea of Quanta, Takumi felt like an ant.
The Imaginary Tree was far too massive.
Nothing like how it appears in anime.
Takumi floated atop the Sea of Quanta, gazing at the endless Imaginary Tree.
He couldn't help but smack his lips.
Takumi:
[Picture]
[It's huge. Even world bubbles are nothing but grains of dust beneath the Imaginary Tree!]
Takumi snapped a photo and sent it to the group chat.
Looking at the photo Takumi sent, the group members were stunned.
Fujiwara Chika:
[So big!]
Sagiri:
[How magnificent!]
Akeno:
[So this is the Imaginary Tree? Unreal.]
Boros:
[We are nothing but ants!]
The group burst into chatter.
The Imaginary Tree Takumi posted was simply too colossal.
It was a real eye-opener for everyone.
Zhongli:
[Even world bubbles are like grains of sand beneath the Imaginary Tree.]
[It seems it'll be difficult for you to find Teyvat.]
Seeing the picture, Zhongli was deeply impressed.
But at the same time, he was troubled.
Searching for Teyvat in the vastness of the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta would indeed be a massive undertaking.
Takumi was now floating in the Sea of Quanta.
Seeing the chat's reactions, he had to agree.
Takumi:
[It really is.]
[There are too many world bubbles.]
[World bubbles are constantly forming and sinking.]
[Finding Teyvat among all these bubbles really is a headache.]
Takumi found it troublesome too.
He had thought it would be simple.
But seeing things now
Alright, maybe he'd underestimated the difficulty.
Finding it isn't easy at all.
Zhongli:
[If you can't find it, just give up.]
[Looks like there's no shortcut to save yourself some points.]
Zhongli sighed.
Takumi wanted to see if he could find Teyvat's world bubble, mainly to shortcut his way over there.
But now, it looked like this plan had failed.
If he couldn't find it, so be it.
He'd just spend points to travel there next time.
Takumi:
[I'll search for a bit more.]
[If I can't find it, I'll head back.]
With that, Takumi made up his mind.
He'd stroll around for a while longer.
If he couldn't find it, he'd just head back.
No big deal.
Once decided, Takumi started moving around in the Sea of Quanta.
For the next two or three days, Takumi wandered around there.
But he still couldn't find Zhongli's world bubble.
Not just Zhongli'seven Honkai: Star Rail's was nowhere to be found.
The main reason was simply that there were too many world bubbles.
If there were fewer, maybe Takumi could have found them by now.
Although it was a pity, time was about up.
So Takumi just gave up (on Takumi's as well).
Takumi:
[I give up, I found nothing!]
Zhongli:
[I figured as much.]
Miori Shiba:
[Are you coming back?]
Takumi:
[Yeah!]
[Everything's pretty much settled.]
[I really should head back.]
This time, Takumi had dealt with almost everything.
Since he couldn't find the world bubbles for Teyvat and Honkai: Star Rail, it was time to return.
Miori Shiba:
[How many are you bringing back with you this time?]
[Do you need me to prepare anything?]
To Miori Shiba, it seemed likely that Takumi would bring quite a few people back again.
Takumi:
[No need.]
[Just the Thirteen Flame-Chasers, and a few members of the Moth of the Fire-Chasers.]
[I haven't picked up the Moth of the Fire-Chasers members yet.]
Speaking of which, Takumi suddenly remembered.
Those Moth of the Fire-Chasers members were still inside their world bubbles.
Chapter 144: Prometheus Can Find Her
Takumi had only picked up Dr. Mei so far.
The other members of the Moth of the Fire-Chasers were still waiting.
So, next, what Takumi needed to do was fish up the rest of the Moth of the Fire-Chasers.
After that, it would be time to head back.
It wasn't a large number of people.
Miori Shiba:
[Is that so? I understand.]
Mei had mentioned this in the group earlier.
If it's just a few people, then there's nothing much to prepare.
They could sort everything out once Takumi returned.
Takumi:
[@Raiden Mei, how are things inside the Imaginary Space?]
[Is Himeko alright?]
Takumi hadn't been paying much attention to what was going on in the Imaginary Space.
So, he had to ask now.
At the same time, Takumi didn't linger long and started heading back to the moon to pick up the rest of the Moth of the Fire-Chasers.
Raiden Mei:
[Himeko is just fine.]
[There are no problems.]
[Everything went smoothly.]
[Also, Kevin and the others have already told Mei-nee everything.]
[She's willing to follow everyone to your world.]
[Prometheus has also told everyone about the disappearance of the Honkai...]
At this point, Mei was a little speechless.
Takumi actually absorbed the Cocoon of Finality directly.
From now on, she would probably be considered one of Takumi's followers, right?
Takumi:
[Alright!]
[That settles it.]
Seeing Mei's message, Takumi's eyes lit up.
That meant everything was more or less finished.
With that in mind, Takumi started reviving the rest of the Moth of the Fire-Chasers with all his might.
Then, he sent them to the Imaginary Space.
Mei still wanted to say something.
But then, she saw Takumi start sending in a bunch of confused people.
