Tesla felt like a pig being roasted over a fire.
In this situation, she wasn't facing a Herrscher that an ordinary person could understand, but a "Mother of Cocoons" with the power of the Sea of Quanta?
"Are you kidding me? Are we just going to let this thing run wild in my city? Benares is about to collapse!"
Tesla really couldn't come up with a good solution right now.
It was indeed possible to control Shigure Kira at the moment, to dig out the Herrscher Core from her chest. But this core would then become a new poison in the hands of the new human civilization.
According to the famous Murphy's Law, if any low-probability event appears before humanity, then this low-probability event will definitely happen at some point.
In other words, if humans really obtained the ability to create a Cocoon of Finality, then humans would definitely create a new Cocoon of Finality.
The Cocoon of Finality was certain that the current civilization could survive in its hands, which was why it had created such a troublesome thing.
This was different from using Sa. Noldrei had clearly stated...
In his world, humanity had neither the Imaginary nor the Honkai. That world was a world where humanity was bound to win.
Tesla really didn't know how to treat Shigure Kira. She was like an old person carrying the problems of the previous generation, completely out of step with the current Earth.
"Mop-head, what do you think we should do with her?"
Tesla felt that this core was a hot potato. She had never expected the Cocoon of Finality's counterattack to be able to turn human ways of thinking against them.
"Don't worry, Durandal is already on her way. Benares will be fine. What we need to consider is what to do with Shigure Kira, or rather, how we should use this Herrscher Core."
Einstein wasn't worried that the situation would worsen. She could vaguely see from the surveillance where Shigure Kira's power came from.
Like the Herrscher of the Void who could borrow from the Imaginary Space, most of Shigure Kira's current abilities were also directed towards the Sea of Quanta. The external manifestation was different from the Herrscher of Life and Death.
It was more like the Cocoon had stolen the fruits of the Venus civilization and was now using them directly against the Earth civilization.
"The Cocoon of Finality was already on an inevitable path to disempowerment thanks to the sacrifices of the Previous Era. The Will of the Honkai must know its own predicament now, otherwise it wouldn't have done something so crazy."
Einstein had never thought something like this would happen.
Just as human civilization was about to succeed using Proliferationism, their opponent had unceremoniously taken this method and used it against them.
No wonder Noldrei said that there would be constant internal struggles among humans in the future. This was the first time Einstein had personally experienced such a clinging, tenacious style of fighting.
"I don't want to know why it's gone crazy, I just want to know how to solve this problem! Are we really going to let the Cocoon of Finality keep trying to create its own clones? Is it insane? It was so hard for the Previous Era to fight one, can we fight two, three, four?"
Tesla thought Einstein was being too calm. Tesla had never seen her friend lose her composure more than a few times in her life.
Einstein wasn't worried, mainly because she had another idea.
"Tesla, how many Cocoons of Finality do you think a single solar system can accommodate? Venus alone isn't big enough for it to land on, and even the destruction and reconstruction of Earth was within the Cocoon of Finality's expectations. If it weren't for the Previous Era finding the Cocoon of Finality's backdoor, we would have had to go through the same hardships as the Previous Era, even with Noldrei's help."
"How many of such powerful things can a small solar system accommodate?"
Einstein posed a disturbing question.
"The Cocoon of Finality is in such a hurry to create a second Cocoon under its control, which means it has begun to disregard the destruction of its own environment. Even if Earth becomes a garbage planet where no life can be born, the Cocoon of Finality still wants to take back its own authority from human civilization."
Tesla felt that Einstein's idea was a bit too much. She even found it quite absurd.
"The Herrscher of Origin determined the conditions for the Herrscher Cores' descent and their final form. In other words, this preliminary work determined how human civilization would act against the Herrschers. Now, all the Herrschers are our own people..."
Einstein's expression became a little subtle as she said this.
"We have gathered the basic elements to control the descent of Finality and determined how the final Herrscher of Finality will stand between human civilization and the Cocoon of Finality."
"The Cocoon of Finality should never have handed over something like Herrscher Cores to humans to use. After it handed them over, it could no longer turn Herrschers into apostles of its own authority. They're even less useful than a powerful Honkai Beast."
"The Cocoon of Finality has a fatal weakness: the authority it bestows can never be taken back! The ownership of that authority belongs to the person who possesses it."
"And now the Cocoon of Finality is trying to find a way to take back its authority. However, even the Divine Keys created by the Previous Era using the cores couldn't be taken back. How many of the current civilization's Stigma Battlesuit Herrschers are easy to deal with?"
Tesla knew that her body had been modified by Noldrei. The Herrschers of the current civilization didn't need to consider the problem of Honkai Energy adaptability because the Kaslana living Stigma compensation mechanism would take care of that part.
After hearing her friend say this, Tesla could also understand why the Cocoon of Finality was acting so crazy now.
Tesla pondered for a moment and said, "It's willing to smash its unique throne of power in half just to wipe out the humans who have encroached on its authority?"
"Then it should be mass-producing Honkai Beasts... No, Honkai Beasts are no longer enough to harm humanity. Even if it creates Honkai Beasts that can destroy star systems, it's useless.
"With our current speed of producing SELENE engines, we can produce them even faster than the Cocoon of Finality can create Honkai Beasts."
The one who created the SELENE engines was a Herrscher under the Cocoon of Finality.
Tesla was very clear about her speed of creating SELENE engines. The speed at which Honkai Beasts appeared simply couldn't compare to her speed of clearing the field as a Herrscher.
"Then what should we do with this new Herrscher? Can Shigure Kira still communicate with us normally? Can she still consider herself to be on the side of humanity?"
Hearing Tesla's question, Einstein didn't answer rashly. She silently watched as Shigure Kira's power grew stronger and stronger in the battle.
A second person had taken over the fight from Benares. Durandal, as a Herrscher, now stood in front of Shigure Kira.
