Chapter 243: The puppet's psychological warfare, Eden could barely hold it together
Kiana was also affected by this dream.
Fortunately, the sensitive Bronya discovered her abnormality.
Afterwards, this little loli floating in the air transformed into a "counseling big sister," slowly guiding Kiana.
A way of interacting completely different from the past also made the players feel deeply moved.
In the conversation between Bronya and Kiana, they finally realized that something was wrong.
The Herrscher of Dominance had clearly been wiped out, but Bronya's stolen Herrscher of Reason authority had still not been restored.
This made Tesla and the others start to suspect.
In the previous battle, did they miss some puppets?
Without giving them much time to investigate, that very evening, Kiana was pulled into the Theater of Dominance again.
At the same time, the Anti-Entropy headquarters was also invaded.
The cores of the Herrscher of Dominance that had been collected previously had also disappeared.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Kiana.
This time, she was pulled into the Theater of Dominance alone, and no one knew when support would arrive.
Looking at the environment of the Theater of Dominance, Kiana's expression was extremely serious: "There are still puppets alive..."
"No wonder the Herrscher of Reason's power hasn't returned."
Just as Kiana was puzzled, the puppet appeared again.
"Hehe, you're here~ As expected, we didn't misjudge; you are indeed the one most qualified~"
Kiana: "Qualified? What nonsense are you spouting?"
"I know you, Kiana, the hero who saved our city—Herrscher of Void Kiana."
Hearing this, Kiana's expression was extremely astonished: "Are you... someone who lived in Arc City?"
The puppet feigned excitement: "Yes, yes, we even met before~ You don't remember me, but I've always wanted to see you again, wanted to thank you in person..."
In the game, a flashback of the puppet appeared.
"At that time, I was just an ordinary middle school student, but suddenly one day, monsters broke into the school and crushed the peaceful life I had taken for granted..."
"The school turned into ruins, and my friends, teachers, and classmates were all buried under the rubble... I heard their cries for help grow weaker with my own ears... but I could only cry on the side."
"At that time, I thought, maybe my life was going to end there, but then... you appeared."
"You smiled and patted my head, comforting me by saying 'It's okay now~'. At that time, you were like a ray of light; to me, you were the embodiment of hope!"
"But... I was wrong. I survived, but instead became a target of public criticism."
"Because I was the only survivor... most of the families around had lost blood relatives in that disaster; they supported and encouraged each other, but they kept drifting away from my family."
"【Why am I the only one who survived?】 Such voices spread little by little, eventually turning into hatred!!"
"No one was willing to give us shelter, no one was willing to provide work for my parents, and even the post-disaster aid... delayed our family's application for various reasons..."
"The disaster didn't crush us, but humans, as fellow countrymen... managed to do it!!"
"My mother cried all day long, and my father, who used to be hardworking and enterprising, started drinking and became irritable."
"One day, I even heard my father muttering to himself after drinking—if only she had also died in that disaster..."
"At that time, I felt something break inside my heart... and then a voice said to me—"
"Welcome to the Theater of Dominance~"
Kiana: "..."
After finishing this plot, not only the audience, but even Eden felt annoyed.
She didn't even know what to say anymore.
The words spoken by the puppet displayed the coldness and selfishness of human nature to the fullest.
It is indeed true; many times, others don't hope for you to live well.
When jealousy arises, they even wish you would die, the more miserably, the better.
Abruptly, they thought of a sentence Otto had said before: "Human hearts are far more terrifying than Honkai... 々〃..."
【This plot is a bit dark...】
【This is just magnifying the "evil" of human nature infinitely, but it really makes one's blood pressure soar...】
【Damn, after hearing these words from the puppet, even I am shaken...】
【This is still psychological warfare...】
The chat scrolled by, and in the plot, the puppet was still narrating, constantly releasing negative emotions toward Kiana.
"You saved the whole city, but my ordeal continued because of it... your self-righteous heroic act brought me even more pain!"
"The baseness of human hearts is far more terrifying than disasters. In such a world... true salvation never existed from the start!"
"Since you call yourself a hero, then why... did you save those bastards who tortured my parents and ruined their lives?"
"Finally, I found the answer here... it's all like this, people in this world are all like this!"
"Blind, impulsive, selfish, greedy, sorrowful..."
"I am no different from them; I am also a member of such base... ugly... humans."
Just when everyone's blood pressure was rising, wishing the Herrscher of Dominance would turn back and kill all those selfish guys...
Kiana interrupted the puppet.
"No... I won't be deceived by you!"
"You are the Herrscher of Dominance, not a human. You magnified the negative emotions in people's hearts and induced them to go to extremes..."
"Human hearts are definitely not such simple things!"
"They spread the pain of losing loved ones to the survivors; this is the 【evil】 of human hearts."
"But you also said it yourself, they supported each other and encouraged each other; this is the 【good】 of human hearts."
"Good and evil coexist in everyone's heart; this will not become a reason for me to give up on saving them!" ===== CHAPTER 245 =====
