Honkai: Man(Sludge) From Future

As Kevin walked, he saw many miserable people. Their situation seemed even more dire than under the Honkai's wrath.

At least the Honkai gave them a quick end. But now, these people were likely to starve, eating dirt until their stomachs burst.

It was truly terrifying!

Kevin had even heard that the countries neighboring the two nations had set up a blockade, afraid that these people, potentially infected with Honkai radiation, would rush into their countries.

Damn it, didn't these people know that Noldrei had already tampered with the genes of all humanity?

Oh, right, they didn't know. The upper echelons of these countries had never told their people. Not to mention, the people around here were more isolated than those in other countries.

So, no one knew that humans now died instantly upon being infected with Honkai Energy.

Everyone thought these two countries had been hit by some kind of fission bomb.

Weren't you all brothers and sisters under the same religion? Are you really just going to put up an electric fence and set up machine guns and abandon them?

Kevin had seen enough of these people's jokes. When the wind is at your back, you're brothers and sisters. When it's against you, who are you?

He never thought that just two fission bombs would make Palestine and Israel treated like they had the plague, surrounded and blocked by other countries. What Kevin found most unimaginable was the change within the Kaslana Stigma Space.

What change?

Of course, it was the sudden influx of millions of human wills. As soon as these people entered, they were immediately captivated by the Stigma Space created by the genetic information within the Stigma Will.

This was all thanks to the Kiana Stigma Will created by Kiana. She sat high above the Stigma Space, vaguely draped in a yellow robe, looking down on these newly joined "little friends."

Thanks to the mixing of millions of human wills from Academy City, this chaotic state was gradually beginning to coalesce into a human form.

These old folks, who were already religious, immediately knelt down to the big brother in the yellow robe.

It was unknown when Academy City had created so many Stigma Battlesuits and guided these people to put them on.

Regardless of whether these people had passed the first stage of the Stigma Battlesuit, they could undoubtedly now live in areas with Honkai Energy.

This immediately gave the Kaslana Stigma Space a huge external supplement.

And the speed at which this group of people was assimilated was beyond Kevin's imagination.

When people of faith encountered a completely similar being, they either collapsed because it was different from their own god, or they immediately took it as their new faith.

Of course, if they were fakes and didn't believe...

That was perfect! These people would be selected by Academy City to be the new ruling class of these two countries.

In fact, that was exactly what Hikigaya Hachiman was doing. While promoting the greatness of the Chairman, he began to use the Stigma Battlesuits to classify the locals in detail.

The most outstanding feature of the Stigma was fully demonstrated at this moment. The Stigma Will could clearly know a person's current ideology, directly isolating those who had infiltrated under false pretenses from the very beginning, fundamentally preventing the birth of false faith.

Those who had a mental breakdown were sent to a mental hospital, and the non-believers were used to manage those who believed in the Kaslana Stigma Will.

A very simple plan based on ideological class stratification was born.

Order was quickly being restored in the two countries, and they were preparing to use the Honkai-crystallized Jerusalem as a source of Honkai minerals for their new national economy.

Order was quickly being restored in the two countries, but it didn't seem to have much to do with the people of the two countries. It was as if these people were accepting something that had nothing to do with them. It was truly absurd...

Unlike the incognito ancestor Kevin, Hachiman was currently troubled by something else.

That is... the anti-Stigma Battlesuit organization.

"They can't beat us at all. What are they even resisting?"

Hikigaya Hachiman didn't think there was anything wrong with the Stigma Battlesuits. At this time, although Hachiman knew that the upper echelons of Academy City intended to seize humanity's reproductive rights, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, Academy City could truly provide socialized child-rearing.

Don't underestimate this simple task. A government that couldn't even run a basic social security system had no chance of running a so-called socialized child-rearing system.

The new population produced would just be thrown out and left to fend for themselves.

Academy City wouldn't do such a thing. After all, the people in Academy City currently didn't need to worry about medical care or pensions. The only trouble was that more and more people wanted to come to Academy City, so they needed to consider having enough living space.

"Resisting what? Of course they were scared by the effects of the Stigma Battlesuits."

Ayanokōji Kiyotaka, who was working with him, had no choice but to join the ranks of the Stigma Battlesuit users. He now found it difficult to endure such hard work without the external power provided by the Stigma Battlesuit.

In Ayanokōji Kiyotaka's view, these people's resistance was completely understandable.

To outsiders, the Stigma Battlesuit seemed like a devil's tool. Just by putting it on the locals, they were turned into another group of unfamiliar believers, while the non-believers were trapped in the illusion of the first stage of the Stigma Battlesuit.

Any sane person would think there was something wrong with the Stigma Battlesuit. No matter how you explained the principles of the mental mapping within the Stigma Battlesuit, these people simply couldn't understand the situation.

For most believers, this thing was like the devil's temptation.

These people who resisted the Stigma Battlesuits were resisting these things.

"So, these weapons sent by Academy City are also specifically for dealing with these people?"

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at the launcher in his hand. The thing it fired was not a so-called firearm bullet, but a living entity that could move on its own. After contacting a human body, this living entity would become like a parasite, directly climbing into the person's spinal cord to implant a Stigma.

'I always feel that the things designed by Academy City have such an evil aesthetic.'

He knew that these living entities had no consciousness of their own and were just like the Stigma Battlesuits.

It was just that the Stigma Battlesuit was a complete body, while this type of parasite was more like a small, living Stigma that entered the human body, only creating a channel for humans to connect to the Stigma, and did not have the powerful Honkai Energy compensation effect of the Stigma Battlesuit.

Ayanokōji asked with some curiosity, "Then why not design a living entity that can automatically find humans? That way, we wouldn't need to 'attack' them specifically, would we?"

'You're the real villain here, aren't you?'

Hikigaya Hachiman thought Ayanokōji Kiyotaka was a genius, but he was also a little curious why they didn't design it in a way that would attack like a swarm of mosquitoes. Wouldn't that be more cost-effective?

But this doubt could only be buried in his heart.
