Honkai: Man(Sludge) From Future

"Well, you've seen it too. This is a Herrscher... probably? Anyway, her current body has Honkai energy adaptation genes that far surpass those of primitives, and she can easily control the Honkai Core."

"It should be similar to a Herrscher, right?"

Noldrei thought that this should be a life form similar to a Herrscher.

As he said this, he looked at Rita and asked, "So, what do you plan to do?"

Rita really wanted to say that they planned to eliminate the Herrscher, but now it seemed that this Herrscher was a bit strange.

She decided to ask the Overseer for instructions first.

But before that, Rita still knew her main job.

"And what about you? What are your needs?"

Rita had come to negotiate, wanting to see what these people had gathered together for.

Noldrei said directly, "I want to be the emperor here. Is there any way to do that?"

The smile on Rita's face stiffened for a moment, and then she kindly explained, "We can't have an emperor here."

Who knew that Noldrei had already deeply understood the situation of this era? He said with a smile, "You're lying to me. The city councilors here have already been hereditary for three generations, which is no different from an emperor. I just want a fiefdom. You primitives just like to pretend. You've told so many lies that you've even started to believe them yourself."

'You know too much!'

Rita felt like she had been scolded. Her slender eyebrows curved into a beautiful arc, as if she had thought of something.

She explained, "Because the emperor represents slavery and centralization of power, so we..."

"Don't lie to me. There's an Emperor here, and there are hereditary councilors. Isn't it still the same thing? The political system was created because there was a need to centralize power, not because people wanted to be emperors and step on others' heads. It's obvious that you need to centralize power to deal with the troubles of this world."

Noldrei had seen all kinds of humans. Did they really think they could fool him with this little thing?

Since the Honkai was the biggest problem in this world, then the organization that solved the Honkai problem would naturally become the most powerful organization.

Although ordinary people didn't understand the Honkai, the rulers of these countries definitely knew what was going on.

"You're not even willing to give me a small piece of Nagazora City as a fiefdom. These primitives are too stingy!"

"Besides, I'm not trying to enslave people. The working level of humans here is not even as good as one of my tentacles. I'm trying to develop genetic science for them, so that they have a good place to do human modification. What's wrong with that?"

"You have to open your minds and move towards progress. Don't worry, when there are any medical achievements, or achievements in adjuster mutations, I can share them with everyone."

"With me supervising, you don't have to worry about anyone dying. Don't worry!"

"I guarantee that everyone will enter the era of great development of genetic technology, and it will definitely allow more people to survive the nuclear war."

'That's completely unnecessary!' Siegfried was speechless. He didn't know why Noldrei was so obsessed with nuclear war.

Siegfried couldn't understand what Noldrei was trying to do. If you said that what he was doing was sensational, it wasn't entirely true. He seemed to genuinely want to advance human genetic science.

However, if you said that his thinking was simple, what he said didn't sound like the words of a simple-minded person at all.

"Uh, this..."

Rita was also confused, not knowing if Noldrei was talking nonsense.

She thought about it carefully, and it seemed that the other party didn't seem to be playing with her.

This made Rita very troubled. How could she allow the restoration of the imperial system just because of this?

But soon, Noldrei took out his bargaining chip.

He found the closest and most suitable genetic technology crystallization of this era.

A strange fleshy tumor grew and expanded from his arm, and when it finally grew into a sphere, it fell off.

After falling off from his body, it even had the ability to pulse.

Suddenly seeing such a disgusting scene, even the well-informed Rita felt a little uncomfortable.

"This piece of flesh is a pre-set genetic virus. If you're worried that there's a problem with the genetic adjusters you create, then you might as well install a backdoor in them, so you can control them."

Noldrei reached out to hand it to the short-haired girl in front of him.

Rita immediately dodged and retreated. Siegfried couldn't even see how her legs moved.

'Even if you kill me, I wouldn't touch this thing. Who knows if you're going to open a "backdoor" for me?'

Rita had already 'slightly' learned about the habits of Noldrei, this future person.

They were truly terrible. Who knew if he would put something terrible on this thing.

If it infiltrated her skin and opened a backdoor in her body, she wouldn't even have a place to reason.

Noldrei seemed to see through Rita's thoughts and explained with a smile, "Don't worry. If I wanted to do something to you, then when you entered the door and breathed, you would have already inhaled something I created. Bacteria are everywhere in the air, and there are even some that have the same rose perfume scent as you."

This scared the Valkyrie. Future people were too insidious!

Before coming, Rita only knew that the mission was difficult, but she didn't expect it to be this difficult.

'What's the difference between your body and liquid Soulium?'

'In terms of creating strange things, this person seems to surpass Soulium by who knows how much.'

Rita's smile became more and more forced. She tried her best to perfunctorily say, "Is that so? Then Rita will accept the gift you gave me. Let me ask one more question, this thing... this piece of flesh, what is its purpose?"

Noldrei proudly explained, "It can control telomere DNA, limiting human lifespan to only 500 years. Isn't that terrifying? After the breakthrough in genetic technology, the lifespan that should have been extended to thousands of years can only be 500 years. It must be very painful for those clones, right?"

Rita's mouth twitched. She held back the urge to complain that was constantly bubbling up in her heart.

She nodded woodenly and said, "Yes, it's too cruel."

Noldrei said again solemnly, "This is the most terrifying thing to deal with future criminals. You must protect it well and don't use it carelessly."

"Um, can I ask a question?" Siegfried couldn't hold back any longer. He interrupted the conversation and asked, "This thing, can it extend a person's lifespan by 500 years?"

Noldrei explained, "No, it reduces a person's lifespan to only 500 years."

Siegfried spread his hands and said, "But we only have a few decades of lifespan. A hundred years is considered good. Even for adjusters and clones, what's the use of this?"

Noldrei thought he was thinking too much and waved his hand, saying, "So you guys can just die of old age normally. This is for later people to use. Even if you use it, you'll only live for another 400 years at most. What's the use of that? What's the difference between a bug that lives for one year and a bug that lives for five years?"

Siegfried was shocked and said, "As your minister, I don't even get this benefit? I'm still Kiana's father. Why can't I get some care?"

Noldrei looked at him blankly and asked, "What does that have to do with you being her father?"

In the future, all humans were produced with a single click. There was no such thing as family relationships in reality. Noldrei didn't think that family relationships were anything good to be connected to.

'Why did you, the anti-Honkai hero, accept your status as a minister so easily!!!'

Bronya was incredibly shocked.

Just a moment ago, this Siegfried was still thinking about his daughter and other things. Now, he had turned around and directly betrayed them? Just for that extra 400 years of lifespan?

"Do I get a reward for providing Anti-Entropy information in exchange for lifespan?"

Cocolia didn't hesitate to betray Anti-Entropy, because she had truly seen Noldrei's ability to control the underlying code of life.

'Is the adult world so dirty?!'

Kiana and Mei found that the whole topic had suddenly become as if it had nothing to do with them.

Even though the two Herrscher Cores were taken from their bodies.
