Volume 1: Chapter 847 Half-Kun Year, Twilight Prism

The terrifying difference in the flow of time.

In the Land of the Past, for the heroes of the previous civilization, it was nothing more than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea or watch a small theater.

Time flies like an arrow, and half a century has already passed.

Vilvi became a holdout in Onfaros, spending 99% of her time there.

Because there was only one-sided consciousness mapping, the time of the previous civilization was essentially paused in the face of Onfaros's terrifying time flow.

Only when the anti-consciousness of the foolish game is mapped onto the pre-civilization will the timelines of the two worlds align and remain parallel.

This provided great convenience for people like Verviers.

An excellent research environment.

They were able to devote most of their energy and intellect to Onpharos, a large toy full of unknowns and new challenges.

Golden research time.

Half a year is enough for the mysterious scholar Velvet to elevate her alchemy skills from the initial rudimentary stage to a state of consummate mastery.

He can handle all sorts of complex and bizarre alchemical reactions and material transformations with ease and flexibility.

Looking across the entire continent of Onfaros, he can be considered a renowned alchemy master.

And this is only what she has achieved by occupying about a quarter to a third of her body's dominance.

This is the pinnacle of human intelligence.

The core concepts of basic science are always interconnected. By drawing inferences from one instance to another, a PhD who is already at the top of energy science can learn alchemy at a speed comparable to driving an AE86 on Mount Akina.

Under the unreserved and dedicated instruction of the Virvii, the Tirispeius people achieved a rapid leap from zero to something in Earth sciences such as mechanical dynamics and energy.

Twenty years of house arrest allowed Miss Saint to learn about the outside world only through reading, which enabled her to accumulate a level of knowledge and understanding that no normal twenty-something-year-old girl could ever hope to achieve.

Tirispius was intelligent and skillful; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to invent those imaginative little gadgets.

In addition, the systematic thinking and mature scientific framework that Vervi brought allowed her to absorb knowledge about Earth at a speed that was almost like having a data downloader running.

Miss Tirispius can now handle firearms by hand.

More importantly, Velvet has completed the modification and upgrade of Tirispeius's childlike little rocket.

Small missile (×)

Airdropping nuclear bombs (√)

Qiong clearly remembers, and used March 7th's true form to photograph Velvet demonstrating the power of weapons to the Tirispius.

The red-haired beauties looked adorable as they parted their cherry lips slightly and widened their beautiful eyes as they faced the rising sun.

At that moment, the natives of Onfaros truly felt a bit of the shock of nuclear peace.

Oh, and incidentally, the nuclear test and drop site were both on the border of Onfaros, and the target was the Kuroshio Creature.

"Am I right?"

Qiong chuckled and reached out, habitually pinching Titi's beautiful, delicate, and elegant snow-white cheek beside her.

With his other hand, he pointed to the distant Black Tide army, which had been pacified by nuclear weapons and whose edges were now covered with charred remains, and to the small, deserted border country with its towering stone walls.

"Only by improving our own strength can we make our journey in the fire-chasing journey faster and more steadily."

"Think about it, if it were still like before, relying solely on you, even if you could multiply and run around everywhere, how many refugees could you save?"

Under normal circumstances, the speed at which humans flee with their families is like a tortoise and a hare race compared to the speed at which the Black Tide's creations move forward.

It's only a matter of time before they are caught up and swallowed up.

But now?

All you need to do is airdrop a few Twilight Prisms into the Black Tide Legion.

The spread was instantly halted.

The scorched earth and the death zone created by the shockwave provided a precious window of opportunity for those refugees to escape.

"Mmmmmmm!"

Completely oblivious to Qiong pinching and rubbing her cheeks, Titi's eyes shone brightly, and she nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice, as if an invisible flame was burning around her.

She never imagined that her little invention, after being modified by Teacher Wilvi, could unleash such devastating power!

To confront the Black Tide army head-on, if such a weapon were used in wars between city-states... Tirispius didn't even dare to imagine it.

The war could end in an instant!

What kind of spear formations and heavy cavalry?

Faced with overwhelming firepower, they are all just paper toys!

Miss Saint clearly realized a profound truth.

"Times have changed."

"By fracturing the four elements that make up the world using the pseudo-philosopher's stone, the stable metamorphosis in a localized area is transformed into infinite elemental dissociation over a finite period of time, erupting into the most primitive and violent state, creating a clean and unpolluted elemental nuclear bomb."

Qiong couldn't help but marvel and gave Velvi a thumbs up.

"As expected of you, Velvi."

He had read books on alchemy when he was bored and understood the alchemical principles that Velvet used, but he couldn't apply them to himself.

Just like nuclear fission in a nuclear bomb, the principle is something that any high school student, or even a junior high school student, can understand. But understanding the principle and actually making it are two different things.

However, Vilvie is using Sora's body, which is roughly equivalent to Sora being able to use it.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Standing on a cliff dozens of kilometers away from the epicenter of the nuclear explosion, he held onto his iconic steampunk gear-brimmed hat to prevent it from being blown away by the nuclear shockwave.

She stared intently at the still-burning white orb of light in the distance, her gaze focused and critical, seemingly not entirely satisfied.

"The power... is so-so, it's usable enough, but there's still a lot of room for improvement."

"what?"

"Is this... is it just passable?"

Xia Die and Heise Yin, who had come along to watch the test explosion, were both shocked and dumbfounded.

Further improvements?

Even at its current level of power, a single strike could play a decisive role in city-state wars, inflicting devastating damage on smaller city-states.

Increase its power further?

Are you trying to go to heaven?

Compared to Onphalus's medieval bumpkin look, the nameless interstellar traveler, Little March, stood with her hands on her hips, looking charmingly indifferent.

"Calm down, calm down~"

"It's far less powerful than the main guns of a Star Destroyer."

Before she could finish speaking, she heard Vivi stroke her chin, lost in deeper technical deductions, muttering to herself:

"A pseudo-Philosopher's Stone is indeed not enough. If we replace it with a real Philosopher's Stone as the core, theoretically the power could be increased by more than ten times..."

"However, considering the rarity and difficulty in mass production of the genuine product, it's not cost-effective. Let's forget about it and stick with the fake Philosopher's Stone."

"Perhaps we can etch a reverse alchemy array inside the pseudo-philosopher's stone to reverse the elemental fission mode into a fusion reaction of the four elements: earth, water, fire, and air? Hmm... this way, the energy output efficiency could be conservatively increased tenfold."

"What if we replaced that with a real Philosopher's Stone..."

Vervi paused, a glint of light flashing in her eyes:

"The power... could probably be increased more than a hundredfold."

"Increase by a hundredfold!?"

Xia Die and Hai Seyin gasped in shock, a hint of horror even flashing in their eyes.

How terrifying would that be?

Tibao stared blankly: "Reverse Refinement Formation..."

Tigong seemed to be deep in thought: "The idea of ​​fusing earth, water, fire, and air..."

"Yes, it's possible."

Ti Xiao nodded vigorously, but she herself swallowed hard.

If we were to actually create that Twilight Prism—the alchemical version of a nuclear bomb—according to Professor Velvi's vision, its power would probably surpass even the divine power of the Titans of Strife.

In her mind, a terrifying image of a super twilight prism blasting the continent flat was already playing out automatically.

You say you're just a demigod at the beginning, how did you suddenly gain war capabilities that surpass those of the Titans of Strife?

Is that correct?

"The true Philosopher's Stone must be very difficult to forge, right?"

Qiong's question pulled everyone out of their horrifying anticipation of an explosion a hundred times more powerful.

"Ah."

Titi nodded, "Since the Philosopher's Stone was proposed by the School of the Wise Seeds, no more than five Philosopher's Stones have appeared in history."

The Philosopher's Stone, in Onphalus, is a concept proposed by the School of the Wise, an entity forged from the flesh and blood of wise men and their full wisdom.

Essentially, it is a 'miracle' triggered by touching the system level through condensed 'wisdom'.

"Theoretically speaking, there is only one true Philosopher's Stone in this world, which was forged using the divine fire of the Titan of Reason. If that is used as the core, the power of the Twilight Prism will reach its theoretical maximum."

The expert, Velvi, calmly uttered words that stunned all the Tirispians.

“Professor Wilvi, we think you’re being a bit extreme.”

Tian looked embarrassed.

Using Titan's Fire to refine Twilight Prisms is insane.

And how can we then pursue fire and create a new world?

"Since things have come to this, let's eat first."

Qiong took out the Anywhere Door, opened it, and took the hand of March 7, who was out of sight of everyone, and returned to the Golden Courtyard.

"Gurgle~ I'm hungry."

On March 7th, she touched her little belly and let out a cute moan.

"Didn't you just have honey pancakes?"

Qiong looked at the pink-haired girl who was skipping around excitedly.

Why do you think I get hungry so quickly?

March 7th paused, half-closing her beautiful blue-pink eyes, puffing out her cheeks, and glaring at Qiong with a coquettish look that seemed to say, "Whose fault is this?"

"Yes, yes, whose fault is it?"

Qiong spread her hands innocently, her tone full of meaning.

"Hmph! I'm not talking to you anymore!"

March 7th's pretty face flushed slightly. Feeling guilty, she looked away and quickly skipped away.

"I...I'll go to the kitchen and see what good food they have!"

Half a year has passed, and it's not just the Tilisipeos who have changed; Xiaodie and Heather are also quietly undergoing changes.

Xia Die's smile became genuine and warm.

Heather, on the other hand, shed some of the sirens' chilling aura.

Her singing voice carried a youthful lightness and energy, and she would occasionally pull Qiong aside to ask about strange and wonderful things in the outside world.

The changes among the Tirispians were not limited to learning knowledge and making inventions.

After being personally instructed by Qiong for so long, the combat skills of the Tirispius were now completely different from before.

In the Honkai Impact world, she'd probably be equivalent to an A-rank Valkyrie.

Half-year-old A-level!
