Chapter 785: The Herrscher of Corruption

The plot has reached this point, so it can be considered fully paved.

Next, it will gradually enter the climax of the story.

And the desolation of Kalpas has moved countless people.

Kiana is the same.

However, while she feels sad in her heart, Kiana is actually more concerned about the situation on Miss Yayi's side.

Therefore, after taking a deep breath, she continues to bury her head in pushing the plot forward.

In the game, the perspective returns to Raven's side.

The previous two segments of the plot regarding Raven were completely incomprehensible to the players.

Kiana is the same.

So, when they see the plot return to Raven, they feel a bit irritable.

Although this somewhat humorous Gray Serpent speaks quite amusingly, but...

The most important thing now is the plot inside the Elysian Realm!!

However, when Raven speaks her first sentence in the game, everyone is shocked.

"I still find it hard to believe..."

"The Herrscher of Corruption... has actually been born!"

"And... it was born in such a 【Guidance Robot】."

Raven's opening sentence not only shocks all the viewers and attracts everyone's attention.

At the same time, it also makes all the viewers instantly understand what the 【Mission】 of the two is!

The Herrscher of Corruption... actually doesn't just exist within the Elysian Realm.

It exists in the real world too!

"I thought the prerequisite for the birth of a Herrscher was... 【Human】."

"Or perhaps 【Thought】..."

Gray Serpent smiles: "That's hard to say. At least compared to an infant, 【It】 now clearly possesses a greater ability for independent thought—but that is only compared to an infant."

"And this is also humanity's greatest 【Luck】."

Hearing Gray Serpent's words, Raven seems to understand something:

"So you think the reason it has stayed in that abandoned laboratory all this time, without taking action... is because it is still very 【Young】?"

Gray Serpent does not deny it: "After all, this 【Herrscher of Corruption】 is just a newborn 【Infant】."

"It may possess knowledge, but it is unsure how to 【Practice】 it; it also lacks the opportunity to 【Grow】, so its authority and power are both very weak."

"I fear... this is also why the most frequent attempt this Herrscher has made so far is merely 【Backing up】."

"Of course, it could also be because it perceived the 【Encirclement】 of the three organizations through some higher-dimensional 【Path】 and dared not act rashly."

The conversation between Gray Serpent and Raven is not long, but the information contained within it is incredibly vast.

Kiana watches it intermittently and repeatedly for a long time before she roughly understands the main content.

And the live chat is already incredibly lively at this moment.

The Herrscher of Corruption was born not long ago, but the three major organizations—Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, and World Serpent—have already discovered it and have long since implemented an encirclement and suppression operation.

It must be said, the actions of these three major organizations are truly fast.

"That's right, it all adds up."

Raven frowns, feeling that this crusade is a bit too easy.

"Are you sure it is the main body of the Herrscher, and not... another 【Backup】?"

Gray Serpent pauses: "I cannot be sure."

"But... all 【Outward】 corruption originates from it, and I have not seen any 【Inward】 parts."

"Unless... the Herrscher of Corruption can also inhabit other individuals in another way, a way that transcends 【Reality】."

Seeing this, the viewers all feel a bit creeped out.

Damn... is Gray Serpent also a prophet?!

He was actually right! The main body of the Herrscher of Corruption has already run into the Elysian Realm!!

Hurry and go help in the Elysian Realm!

"If that is truly the case, there is nothing we can do, so let's complete our purpose for this time."

Raven nods. While looking at the list on the table, she says with a serious expression: "Next, is to find these devices and then destroy them one by one?"

"But be very careful with your methods." To ensure the operation does not encounter any accidents, Gray Serpent reminds her again:

"Do you remember the worst 【Possibility】 we imagined before the operation?"

Raven: "... Yeah."

"Assuming we were a step late and the destruction of the guidance robot had already begun in advance, then..."

"At this moment, the Herrscher of Corruption probably already understands... what 【Death】 is."

Gray Serpent continues: "And through this, it has gained—the will to 【Seek Survival in a Dead End】."

"The obsession to want to live on, that is its most terrifying power..."

Seeing this, the players have a clearer understanding of the 【Herrscher of Corruption】.

Simply put.

The newly born 【Herrscher of Corruption】 understands nothing, not even death.

And finding 【It】 at this time and destroying 【It】 is the simplest... 【It】 might not even resist because it does not understand death.

But, it can observe the world, gradually learn, and understand...

And by that time, trying to resolve it... will likely be very difficult.

Unfortunately...

The 【Herrscher of Corruption】 in the Elysian Realm has clearly already grown up.

And the players also recall what "Brother Jie" Vill-V said.

·· ······Seeking flowers··· ·····

"【It】 let me go, perhaps because we both have one goal—to live on."

Did it also corrupt the Elysian Realm just to live on?

Looking at it this way... it seems the 【Herrscher of Corruption】 is also quite pitiful...?

Just because 【It】 is a Herrscher, must 【It】 be killed?

But... the reason for killing it is also for humanity to protect itself.

It seems neither side is wrong??

However, the viewers do not think too deeply about it, as the information revealed so far does not indicate whether the 【Herrscher of Corruption】 is on the side of Honkai or on the side of humanity.

"Alright, next... there is one more task that requires you to complete."

"Do you remember how humans once defeated the Herrscher of Corruption?"

"In the end, they sealed it in a 【Black Box】."

"And this time's black box... is right in front of you."

Raven: "..."

She feels quite conflicted inside right now.

Come to think of it, this Gray Serpent even saved her life once.

If it weren't for this "somewhat human-like" Gray Serpent who stepped in to help her once, she might have died during that "test."

How could she be an executive in World Serpent like she is now.

Thinking of this, Raven sighs: "... At least at the end, tell me what your 【Wish】 is?"

Gray Serpent falls silent.

"Forget it..." It is not until a long while later that he speaks softly: "Once it is said out loud..."

"I will also 【Not want to die】..."
