The day she died
Otto inscribed these words on Vera's tombstone: "Otto Vera, I give you your favorite name."
For Otto, that grave held not only Otto Vera, but also his bond with Kallen, and his last remaining connection to humanity.
Suddenly!
Looking at Vera's tombstone.
Otto's calm and indifferent expression is etched into the epitaph of Otto Vera.
Everyone in the chat group felt a chill run down their spines.
Otto's last vestige of humanity was also buried along with it.
It made people's hearts sink even more.
Perhaps everyone has already vaguely sensed it.
That Otto they knew so well, yet who also made their hearts pound...
They're probably coming back soon!
In the pure white space.
When Karen saw Vera's tombstone.
My heart sank suddenly.
Although she knew that Vera had died peacefully in her sleep.
But this familiar person, or rather, a close friend whom I regarded as my own sister, has passed away.
It still makes people feel sad.
of course.
At this moment, Otto was probably the most depressed one.
"Otto...you've taken such good care of Vera too...thank you...thank you so much!"
Karen murmured to herself as she looked at the pure white space on one side.
Vera's life.
Under Otto's protection, all was peaceful and prosperous.
And at the end of his life.
She also got what she wanted most, and what was most precious to her.
Otto's last name! This is the bond and kinship between Vera and Otto!
All of this made Karen feel guilty but also incredibly gratified.
But Karen didn't know that.
This will be Otto's last, one of the few pieces of evidence that makes people feel warmth.
When Karen saw Otto's inner thoughts.
When that last thread of humanity is severed.
My heart suddenly tightened.
[Honkai Impact 3rd Himeko: Otto... so he's finally going to become the kind of person I hate the most...?]
[March 7th: Without realizing it... I almost forgot what Otto originally looked like? ? ? ]
Durandal: Still... this kind of bishop is more humane...
[Silver Wolf: It seems that as time goes by, Otto's humanity has gradually been worn away...]
Paimon: There's a saying that's true: experience is the best teacher!
[Ying: Paimon...don't use words like that...(covers face)]
Rita: The old bishop was certainly more compassionate.
[Idle Clouds: With the erosion of time, has Otto still lost the last vestiges of his humanity?]
[Ningguang: (cjcj) It's probably not just the passage of time, but also the obsession with resurrecting Kallen.]
After Vera died.
Otto was completely devoid of humanity and warmth.
They are becoming increasingly indifferent and profit-driven.
Even as humanity continues to improve its technological level.
They also fulfilled their duties in fighting against the Honkai.
But a chill still crept into the hearts of everyone in the chat group!
Five hundred years later, Otto used Soul Steel technology to replace his entire body, inside and out, with Soul Steel.
In addition, he prepared a large number of spare soul steel bodies for himself. Otto has now achieved immortality in another sense.
At this moment, he is not merely human; he is more like a spiritual entity, a soul, a non-human being whose essence is information.
Over the past 500 years, the excavation of relics from pre-civilizational sites by the Mandate of Heaven has accelerated the development of human civilization, and Hua's Spark Project is progressing smoothly.
As civilization progresses, so too does the decay of civilization, and the Herrscher that Otto longed for was finally born.
[The First Herrscher! The Herrscher of Reason! Welt Joyce!]
[1953-1955 AD]
Otto and Walter Joyce became pen pals, and Otto's letters saved Joyce from a mental breakdown. Otto and Joyce engaged in intimate conversations, discussing their ideals and ambitions. Otto wanted to use Joyce's influence to lead Destiny and overcome the Honkai, but Joyce refused.
"...No need."
"……Um?"
"If you really convince me to do something, please don't be so self-righteous next time."
"You don't understand anything at all."
"..."
Did I... say something wrong?
"...No, you didn't actually say anything wrong."
"But that's precisely why I'm even more... unable to believe you at this moment."
"..."
"Is that so? Well... let time give you the answer."
"...Farewell."
"...Goodbye, my friend."
[November 24, 1955 (Thanksgiving Incident)]
In order to eliminate the scientific powers that were not under his control, Otto tampered with the data of the Moon Throne, resulting in Edison's death and Schrödinger's collapse and transformation into a beast.
Otto clashed head-on with the Herrscher of Reason, Welt Joyce, destroying the Star of Eden. Margarita used the Soul Steel Suppressant given to her by Fu Hua to control Otto, but Joyce, mimicking the Oath of Judah, repelled Otto.
“Otto Apocalypse…no, Alpha the Clown! Witness the shattering of stars!”
[Walter Joyce, the Herrscher who fought for humanity, was ultimately murdered by Otto Apocalypse in Manhattan, New York, at 11:50 AM on November 24, 1955, after breaking free from Otto's control.]
[1956 AD: Otto dissolved the Council and established absolute power over Mandate of Heaven.]
[1959-1969 AD: Destiny and Anti-Entropy conducted reconnaissance on the moon and discovered ruins on its far side. The two factions reached an agreement to cease exploration.]
in the screen.
The stories of the First Herrscher Welt Joyce, Valkyrie Leona, and even Dr. Edison have been brought up again.
The tragedy that was already revealed in the evaluation of the first generation Walter.
Staged again.
The difference between the two.
The only difference is that... this time, the protagonist is Otto Apocalypse.
A cold-hearted bishop whose humanity has been gradually worn away by the years and obsessions.
A leader who controls the world's largest anti-Honkai military organization.
A madman and clown who will stop at nothing to find a way to revive Kallen!
Even if it's the second time I'm exposed to these images.
The people in the chat group still felt incredibly saddened.
The heroic sacrifice of Welt Joyce and others, and the Herrschers who shine with humanity despite Otto's cold-blooded decision!
While evoking sympathy from the audience.
This reignited the anger that had almost been extinguished among the crowd.
Otto now.
And Otto, who overthrew the tyranny of destiny five hundred years ago, established a monastery to adopt orphans, and traveled across thousands of miles of China.
They can no longer be considered the same person!
[1972]
Otto did what he had been hesitating about—
Karen's clone!
For Otto, Karen was the only saint, and her sanctity must never be defiled.
However, the long wait had left Otto mentally exhausted and on the verge of collapse.
They had originally pinned their hopes on the Herrscher, but... obtaining the Herrscher is unlikely in the short term.
Otto needed a source of emotional support to soothe his weary soul.
Inside the Tianming headquarters.
Theresa appeared, but her face was filled with confusion.
"Where is this place? Who am I?"
And in internal communications.
Otto's voice came
"The A-310 test subject has been created, and the experiment has been successful."
"Vital signs are normal, Honkai energy suitability is 69%. Hmm, this is a bit strange."
"A-310? Is that my name? And who are you?"
A-310's face was filled with confusion.
Suddenly!
The chat group erupted in an uproar!
The people of Teyvat were also given relevant knowledge through the screen.
[Keqing: Wait... a clone?!]
[Furina: This... even if the clone is perfect, it's still not the same person!]
[Furina: It's fake...it's fake...(suddenly dejected)]
[Raiden Mei: Headmistress?!]
Kiana: Theresa...A310?! What...what's going on?!
[Ningguang: Theresa...the headmistress is actually a clone of Kallen?!]
[Kafka: Otto has finally come to this.]
[March 7th: Why...why?!]
[Fireworks: When a person's spirit is on the verge of collapse, they cannot survive without something to hold onto.]
