Qiu Bi shifted his gaze to the calm sea surface.
The terminal consciousness of the "Stigmata Terminal" is Kiana from the first generation, the original Herrscher of the End.
For Janna, the first Herrscher of the End holds extremely important significance.
Otherwise, she would never have been able to use her own core as the power source for the "Holy Mark Terminal".
“Mébius, if you are truly interested in the ‘Stigmata Terminal,’ you might try to awaken its terminal consciousness. At that time, you should be able to learn everything from its consciousness.”
Qiu Bi pretended to be a riddle teller and gave Möbius an ambiguous answer.
Instead of being annoyed, Mebius became very interested.
If what Qiu Bi said is true, then she might be able to gain unexpected benefits from the terminal consciousness of the "Holy Mark Terminal".
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the floating island slowly moved above the Misty Sea Manor, casting a shadow over the manor.
Perhaps realizing that the floating island's location was not ideal, the colorless radiant fire did not rush to leave. Instead, it controlled the floating island to move to the side, away from the sky above the Misty Sea Manor, allowing the Misty Sea Manor to return to the sunlight.
Then, Colorless Blaze piloted the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" and slowly descended to the beach of Mistsea Manor.
"Huihuo, thank you for your hard work."
"This is my duty. To whom should the highest management authority over the floating islands be transferred?"
"Mebius, Velvi, who among you will take over this authority?"
Qiu Bi looked at Mebius and Vilvi, waiting for the two girls' reply.
Mebius glanced at the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" once more, and then stopped paying attention to it.
"Transfer the highest management authority to me."
In contrast, Velvi showed little interest in "supreme management authority," pacing back and forth around the colorless, glowing floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" with great interest.
If circumstances allowed, she wouldn't mind dismantling the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" for research.
Previous civilizations had similar armor, but it was not put into use.
In other words, similar armor manufactured in previous civilizations was too cumbersome and inconvenient for participating in the campaign against the Herrschers.
Only the armor used by Velvet herself is barely capable of participating in the battle against the Herrscher.
Therefore, Velvet was very interested in the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" that could be used to fight Herrschers.
"Dr. Mebius, Dr. Vervier, please follow me to the floating island. I will now transfer the highest management authority of the floating island to Dr. Mebius."
Colorless Flame stood on the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" and gestured for Mebius and Velvet to board the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder".
As for Qiu Bi...
As a Herrscher, Qiu Bi possesses the ability to fly, so he doesn't need the colorless radiant flame to carry him to the floating island.
"Huihuo, you go to the floating island first. I will go there with Lady Hilfalia and Sirin later."
"Ok."
The colorless radiant fire nodded in acknowledgment, and then controlled the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" to soar into the sky.
Qiu Bi watched the three of them leave.
Then, two purple voids quietly opened behind Qiu Bi, and Lady Hilfalia and Sirin walked out of the purple voids one after the other.
"Dad, shall we begin installing the 'Stigmata Terminal' now?"
"No rush. Let's go check out the floating island first, and then we'll start placing the 'Stigmata Terminal'."
Qiu Bi reached out and ruffled Xilin's hair, asking, "Xilin, is the 'Domination Theater' fully renovated?"
"It's already been renovated! The 'Domination Theater' should now be renamed 'Magic Castle,' becoming a gathering place for magical girls."
Xilin explained with a smile.
When the "Magic Castle" was completed, Sirin connected with the "Law of Cycles," allowing magical girls to enter the "Magic Castle" as spiritual beings through magical girl contracts for gatherings and exchanges.
Therefore, Sirin no longer needs to constantly monitor the situation in Academy City; she only needs to occasionally enter the "Magic Castle" to learn about the current situation of the magical girl army, which undoubtedly saves Sirin a great deal of time.
"Dad, let's hurry up and leave! Celine is really interested in that island!"
Sirin changed the subject, then reached out and tore open a purple hole, leading directly to the floating island.
Qiu Bi smiled, said nothing more, and led Xilin into the purple void.
Lady Hilfalia followed closely behind, and was the last to enter the purple void.
……
The floating island wasn't only home to Wuse Huihuo and Qiu Bi; there was also a brown-haired girl dressed in casual clothes.
—Maria Shaniat.
Rather than resolving the Honkai events erupting around the world, Maria's most important task is to perfect the path beyond S-rank Valkyries.
Therefore, the Human Alliance strictly forbade Maria from participating in resolving the Honkai incident, allowing Maria to focus on perfecting the path beyond S-rank Valkyrie.
For this reason, Otto also temporarily confiscated Maria's Valkyrie armor and Black Abyss White Flower under the pretext of equipment maintenance.
Upon seeing Maria sitting on the edge of the floating island, Sirin was overjoyed. A purple void flashed by, and she threw herself into Maria's arms.
"Aunt Maria, are you here to visit Celine?"
"...So be it."
Maria gently stroked Celine, then added, "Celine, I'll be staying at Fogsea Manor for a while. You'll welcome me, won't you?"
"Aunt Maria can stay as long as she wants; there are plenty of empty rooms at Fog Sea Manor!"
Chapter 387 The Moth Chasing the Flame and Gaia
Maria was very pleased with Celine's affection, and the smile on her lips never faded.
At the same time, Colorless Flame has transferred the highest management authority over the floating islands to Mebius.
After a few seconds of contemplation, Möbius finally named the floating island "The Moth of Fire," as a tribute to the previous civilization.
The colorless radiant fire seemed somewhat afraid of Velvi. After Mebius took over the highest management authority, it hurriedly left, fearing that Velvi would suddenly dismantle the floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder".
While Virvi felt a slight regret at the colorless radiant flame's hasty departure, she was not disappointed.
According to Colorless Radiant Flame, the database of the floating island of "Fire-Chasing Moth" has access to the Destiny Database and can query the information stored in the Destiny Database at any time.
The colorless, glowing floating fortress "Schwarzwaelder" can be found in the Destiny Database, greatly facilitating Velvi's research.
After taking over the vast floating island, Mebius and Velvet did not rush to carry out scientific research, but silently watched Qiu Bi, waiting for the "Stigmata Terminal" to be placed.
Qiu Bi didn't keep the two girls waiting for long. He quickly signaled to Sirin and Lady Hilfalia to begin placing the "Stigmata Terminal".
The "Stigmata Terminal" itself is very large, equivalent to a sizable island.
When Mebius and Velvi witnessed the enormous "Stigmata Terminal," they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Even if we used all the methods available in previous civilizations, we might not be able to create such a terminal.
Lady Hilfalia was in charge of moving the "Stigmata Terminal," while Sirin controlled an almost endless number of imaginary hands, either lifting or pushing the "Stigmata Terminal," carefully and meticulously adjusting its position.
Placing the "Stigmata Terminal" is no easy task. Sirin must consider many factors, such as whether the "Stigmata Terminal" is positioned accurately, and whether it has been accidentally damaged...
After Sirin's careful and continuous fine-tuning, the "Stigmata Terminal" was finally safely embedded in the floating island and became one with it.
From this point on, the floating islands can directly use the computing power of the "Stigmata Terminal" to assist in various scientific research tasks.
Unfortunately, the terminal consciousness of the "Stigmata Terminal," the "Alaya Consciousness," did not revive as a result and remained dormant.
““Stigmata Terminal”…”
Mebius murmured softly, then temporarily suppressed his intense interest in the "Stigmata Terminal" and prepared to begin carrying out various scientific research tasks in an orderly manner according to the initial plan.
The same goes for Velvi. Although she doesn't have a clear research goal like Mebius, she can first browse the information in the Destiny Database to gain inspiration for her research goals.
Just as the two girls were about to get busy, Qiu Bi belatedly remembered something—
"Mebius, Velvet, the 'Stigmata Terminal' originally contained an intelligent AI, but due to its extremely hostile nature, it was forcibly removed by Cecilia and the others and is currently placed in Lady Hilfaria's imaginary space."
The original AI of the "Stigmata Terminal" had a very bad personality. It was later dismantled by Cecilia and temporarily placed in Lady Hilfalia's imaginary space, awaiting further processing.
If Mebius and Vervier can utilize Mona's core unit, then Qiu Bi will choose to hand over Mona's core unit to Mebius and Vervier.
Conversely, Qiu Bi would consider destroying Mana's core unit.
Manas harbors considerable hostility towards humanity, subconsciously regarding them as insignificant ants.
Therefore, Qiu Bi was not keen on letting Mana continue to exist, lest Mana suddenly choose to restart the entire human civilization one day in the future.
"A malicious AI? Qiu Bi, do you want me and Wilvi to modify the underlying personality logic of that AI so that its personality is no longer malicious?"
"You can understand it this way: the main goal is to have that intelligent AI assist you in various scientific research tasks."
Currently, only Mebius and Vervi are on the floating island, and they desperately need help.
Mebius touched his chin, as if deep in thought.
The next second, she suddenly looked at Velvi and asked, "What do you think?"
"You could give it a try. The 'Stigmata Terminal's' intelligent AI might be using technologies I'm not familiar with, which could potentially bring us both new insights."
Surprisingly, it was not the split personality that controlled Wilvi's body at this time, but Wilvi's "id" personality.
Although they may not be as good at things as those with split personalities, they are not easily influenced by the thinking of the corresponding personality.
Upon hearing Vervie's reply, Mebius chuckled and said, "In that case... Qiu Bi, then I'll trouble you to retrieve that intelligent AI. Vervie and I will begin modifying the underlying logic code of that intelligent AI later."
Without Qiu Bi needing to remind her, Lady Hilfalia took out the core unit of Mona.
Although Mona's core unit is not small, it is no match for the enormous "Stigmata Terminal".
After doing all this, Qiu Bi, Lady Hilfalia, Sirin, and Maria chose to return to Fogsea Manor, leaving only Mebius and Velvet on the floating island.
……
2018, summer.
More than two years have passed since Winnie and Hannah were born.
The "Honkai God" seemed to have truly disappeared. Even after most of Qiu Bi's daughters graduated from St. Freya Academy, no new Herrscher appeared, making people wonder if the "Honkai God" was preparing a big surprise.
Of Qiu Bi's many daughters, only one of the younger ones is still in school, namely the former "Herrscher of Metal" Nina.
