Honkai: Man(Sludge) From Future

Otto's plan was actually very simple.

Once Academy City's various research institutes had developed to a certain point, they could inevitably lower the high cost of creating beings like MANTISes. This would be supplemented by the special ability of Stigma battlesuits, which could directly act on the mind.

This way, they could create new Stigma warriors by advancing on both the mental and material fronts. With this new original Stigma, they could then create new Stigma battlesuits based on its genetic information.

It was a cyclical process. In the future, more non-Kaslana Stigma battlesuits would inevitably appear on the market. And this new original Stigma owner, if he could also control his own Stigma space well, would have a chance to compete for the title of Stigma Matriarch.

The only difference here was Kiana's body. Her body could adjust its genetic information at almost no cost, and its growth potential in the Stigma space far exceeded that of other Stigma spaces.

It was the same path to the imaginary space, but for Kiana, it was like flying a plane, while for others, it was like driving an ordinary car.

Tesla instinctively felt this was wrong. The Honkai had been sealed until now, largely thanks to Noldrei. And according to him, whether it was the Emperor or the Crown Princess, it was all for the sake of further centralizing control over humanity.

If new Stigma battlesuits appeared, wouldn't that be a complete departure from Stigma centralization, and more like a feudal system of enfeoffing vassal lords? The only difference was that these vassal lords were born from a collection of genetic information.

This was what Tesla was struggling with. She had only just realized that the ideals she had pursued in the past were completely different from the foundation of power she now held.

Not only that, but Tesla had, in fact, more than once felt the urge to defend Noldrei's actions.

'He gave me the power of a Herrscher, helped me make great strides in biological research, and even found many Honkai Beasts for me to experiment on. He helped me fight against the conservative forces in Anti-Entropy and even gave me such a good experimental facility.'

'How could such a being be a bad person? There's no reason for it!'

Tesla was filled with grief. She had never believed that Noldrei truly wanted to rule all of humanity.

Especially with him playing games at home all day, he didn't look like an emperor at all. Could it be that most emperors in history were such gluttonous, pleasure-seeking bastards?

As Tesla thought of this, a chart of human history's emperors appeared in her mind. After a careful comparison, she found...

The situation where the autocratic emperor was a bastard actually accounted for more than half. It was only because good emperors were rare and too famous that this was overlooked in the data.

'So most emperors are bastards, huh? That's a relief.'

After thinking it through, Tesla's psychological burden lessened considerably. Anyway, if the sky fell, the man from the future would be there to hold it up.

Otto's proposal was passed smoothly. Academy City was about to enter a new era of dynastic enfeoffment, reminiscent of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods!

The good days for humanity were just around the corner!

But before that, unless the genetic society of Academy City expanded to cover the entire Earth and came to a halt, this system would always be able to generate the strongest driving force for expansion.

"The plan has been set. Now we need to bring in the most Stigma owners."

Otto decided to press his advantage. He brought out a new version of the Valkyrie plan.

This time, he planned to create an organization of Stigma owners based on Theresa's St. Freya High School. This group of people would become the ruling class of the new human race.

"How can this be?! I propose adding everyone from Cocolia's Orphanage as well!"

Tesla had backed down before, but this time she would absolutely not back down again.

Since it had already been decided to cultivate a new layer of "Stigma Matriarchs," Tesla decided she had to inject more people from Anti-Entropy into this group.

At this moment, what everyone was arguing about was no longer just the future direction of Academy City.

This was a naked carving up of the future division of world interests.

This behavior, ironically, was a symbol of believing in and becoming a member of the genetic social system.

"Is this what the Pony Kingdom is like?"

Elysia quickly became a member of the Pony Kingdom. She skillfully bought food and drinks here, interacting and talking with every pony.

At the same time, she inquired about what the Pony Kingdom in Noldrei's heart was really like.

"In this era, many people believe that their own bodies are the cages of their souls. In fact, it is precisely this cage that gave birth to their souls, not that their bodies are their cages."

"It's because people know they can't leave their own bodies. Their souls are precisely the appendages of their material bodies. If it weren't for the need for the body to grow and reproduce, people would probably just live their lives like animals, 'animals called humans'."

"The humans of this era tried to create life with souls, but with different forms from humans. However, this is just a feeling of loneliness they have in the long river of life."

"If you try to have someone understand your thoughts, it will only further cause others not to understand you. Only by persisting in doing what you want to do will there be people who truly understand you and accept your ideas."

Noldrei believed that the weakness of the current humanity was not just talk; he truly thought so.

Elysia hadn't expected Noldrei to have thought so much about the people of this era. In her eyes, the humans of the Current Era seemed to have a completely different state of life from the humans of the Previous Era.

Or maybe it was some kind of illusion that Noldrei himself brought her? The beautiful girl wasn't sure about such a possibility.

"What about the Honkai? What about the Herrschers?"

Elysia asked about the Honkai and the Herrschers.

But this time, Noldrei fell silent. He looked up at the sun above the Pony Continent, a sun that was raised by Princess Celestia of the Pony Kingdom.

The ponies here didn't need to consider any of the cold, hard rules of the material universe. The suffering of ponies in the material reality was far less than the suffering humans felt in their own world.

"That is humanity itself. The will of man, the body of man, determines man's stance before the Honkai. If man himself does not change his stance, he cannot face the Honkai."

"Man will not have a strong will for something that does not belong to him."

"If humanity truly believes that fighting against a disaster like the Honkai is not in their own interest, not for protecting what they love and need, but instead feels the pain of being used and driven by it, then I can only say..."

"It is the primitives themselves who have created a world that does not belong to them."

Noldrei was the same as always, just like when he had just arrived and looked down on the primitives.

"For such a world, its extinction is merely common sense in the minds of future life."
