Don't shoot, I'm just a Honkai Impact 3rd content creator!

"Now let's focus on something more important... that is, cooperating with Destiny!"

"Cooperation? There are quite a few people in the organization who have a grudge against Destiny!"

Rather, those who choose to join the lurking World Serpent instead of the "great, glorious, and correct" Mandate of Heaven are either mentally unstable, like Jackal, or they harbor a deep-seated hatred for Mandate of Heaven...

Among the World Serpent's executives, the latter make up the vast majority.

Therefore, in this situation, Raven doesn't think cooperating with Destiny is a wise choice, but as Gray Serpent said before, they have no other choice.

"Let's await the outcome of the negotiations between the Lord and the Bishop of Destiny. If it goes smoothly, Destiny will no longer be an obstacle in the path of the World Serpent; conversely, if it doesn't go smoothly, then let's wage a full-scale war against Destiny here and remove this obstacle from the Serpent's path!"

Raven: ......

"I understand."

In the ruins at the very center of the Vimur Laboratory, a huge semicircle composed of golden fluid enveloped Otto and Kevin; it was an isolated space created by Otto using the Void Treasury.

I just wanted to have a private talk with Kevin!

In the world constructed from the Void Treasury, Otto and Kevin, two men standing at the pinnacle of the world, sat facing each other.

Otto scrutinized Kevin, finding his eyes utterly empty. Emotion, memory, warmth—Otto couldn't detect a single trace of what a human being should possess in Kevin's gaze.

Otto could sense that Kevin didn't take him, Destiny, or anything else in this world seriously! This feeling made Otto feel nostalgic; it was the first time since becoming the Archbishop of Destiny that he had been so looked down upon.

But Otto wasn't angry at all. On the contrary, he welcomed Kevin's arrival because Kevin had what he wanted!

Then, Otto broke the silence between the two.

"Long live the World Serpent!"

Kevin: ? ? ?

PS1: I will update three to four times today, still until 6:00 AM.

PS2: Recommending a book to a friend

Lin Qiuyue transmigrated into the world of "Honkai Impact 3" and became Otto's traitor, monitoring the main characters at St. Freya Academy.

Originally, Lin Qiuyue planned to save money peacefully until the "Queen's Descent" storyline began, then she could escape and find a place to retire. However, the process of saving money was too boring. In order to find some fun for herself and save money for retirement, Lin Qiuyue decided to use the Destiny Network to copy some novels, comics, songs, and movies from her previous life on Earth to earn some extra money.

But who knew that this act of plagiarism would... cause the already broken world to collapse!

Herrscher of the Void: "Wait a few more days, and 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica' will soon reach its finale."

Mei: "Bloom Into You...So girls can have this kind of relationship?"

Bronya: "I'll definitely be the first person to beat the new 'Shining Soul'!"

Otto: "This song, 'Ten Years,'...it perfectly expresses my feelings."

System: "But how come I remember that I originally wanted the host to rule the world?"

The story of a nerdy girl who plagiarizes books and accidentally brings peace to Honkai Impact 3.

Chapter Ninety-Five: World Serpent or Destiny – Which is Stronger?

In other words, there are only Otto and Kevin in this space constructed from the Void Archives right now. Otherwise, if Durandal were also inside, he would have heard Otto say those words.

Durandal might pull out the Black Abyss White Flower, hold it to the back of Otto's neck, and then ask a question.

Lord Bishop, why are you rebelling?

Of course, this was just a joke from Otto; he had his own ambitions. Unless Kevin could truly resurrect Kallen, Otto would definitely not join World Serpent and become subordinate to Kevin.

However, Otto's joke clearly failed to amuse Kevin. Kevin remained seated, his face as cold as ice, without uttering a single word.

But Otto didn't seem embarrassed at all and continued talking.

"...Haha, just kidding. Let's try to create a more relaxed atmosphere for our conversation with a friendly opening."

"Getting back to the point, welcome, leader of the World Serpent! I knew I would meet you someday."

"I know your name, I understand who you are, and I admire your deeds."

"You are the ancestor of the Kaslana bloodline, the hero who led the pre-civilization humanity in their struggle to the very end; you are also the sovereign of the World Serpent, the executor of the Stigmata Project..."

The most important thing in negotiations is leverage; the amount of leverage each party has determines the direction of the negotiations.

Otto immediately began recounting Kevin's life story, intending to show Kevin that he and Schicksal knew just as much information as the World Serpent! At least in terms of information, the World Serpent did not have an absolute advantage.

"So, your attack on Schicksal's experimental base this time is to declare war on me?"

Otto kept his eyes fixed on Kevin, carefully observing every subtle movement and expression, as these were crucial to his upcoming negotiations.

Kevin: ...

"You're wrong. World Serpent has no intention of fighting against destiny. I've come here for only one purpose: I need your assistance in completing the Stigmata Project."

Otto was not surprised by Kevin's request.

After all, in a sense, Kevin and he are the same kind of people; they both have only one goal in mind.

It was precisely because Otto understood this that he sat here negotiating with Kevin. Otherwise, Otto wouldn't have risked his life to come before Kevin, a humanoid beast.

Even though Otto has countless soul steel bodies, dying once is never a pleasant experience!

So when Kevin made his request, Otto smiled and said...

"You make a request, but you have to pay a price. What will you offer in exchange for my promise?"

Kevin paused for a moment, then gave his answer.

"I don't need your promises. Obedience or destruction, you only have these two choices!"

Otto: ......

Hearing Kevin's domineering words, all the viewers in the live chat were stunned!

"Although it sounds arrogant, considering that Kevin said it, it doesn't seem so bad?"

“Indeed, if it were those guys from Anti-Entropy saying this, I would just think they didn’t bring their brains with them when they left home this morning. But if it’s Kevin, he really does seem to have the ability to destroy Destiny and Otto.”

"Destroying Destiny is not a problem, but destroying Otto is unrealistic, isn't it? Who knows how many Soul Steel bodies Otto has, or where they are hidden?"

“Otto is a man who plans everything before he acts. Since he dared to show up here to negotiate with Kevin, he must have already prepared for the negotiations to fail.”

"Indeed, it's possible that on the surface, the World Serpent's executives are gathered on the outskirts, preparing to besiege Otto and Durandal if the negotiations break down; but in reality, the Schicksal forces might already be surrounding them further out! If the negotiations fail, they could wipe out all the World Serpent's executives in one fell swoop!"

"??? Isn't the person upstairs exaggerating a bit too much about Otto and Destiny? Kevin is right here. Even if Destiny and Otto were tied together, they still couldn't beat Kevin!"

"I'm not exaggerating! Think about it carefully and you'll see. Kevin is indeed incredibly strong, but he's not without weaknesses. Can his subordinates match his strength? If too many of the World Serpent's subordinates are lost, how will Kevin carry out the Stigmata Project? Doesn't the execution of the project require manpower?"

“That’s right! And who says Otto is no match for Kevin? Otto has had the Void Archives, a pre-civilization technology library, for five hundred years. Who knows how much he’s strengthened his Soul Steel Body? Maybe he’s already created a body that can go toe-to-toe with Kevin?”

"...This is really a bit ridiculous. If Kevin were so easy to surpass, he wouldn't have been the strongest warrior of the previous civilization."

"..."

"To remain so composed in the face of Kevin, Bishop Otto is truly extraordinary!"

Looking at Otto's smiling face in the video, Alicia couldn't help but sigh.

Aside from Thirteen Heroes and Mei, Alicia has rarely seen anyone remain so calm in the face of Kevin.

"Otto... is indeed a troublesome fellow."

Bronya agreed with Alicia's words. Although she disliked Otto and wished that the Heavy Bunny would twist off his head and kick it like a ball, Bronya had to admit Otto's ability and strategy.

"I'm very curious now, how exactly will Bishop Otto respond to Kevin's threat?"

Alicia's face was full of anticipation; she was eager to see how things would develop.

Did Bishop Otto truly have a hidden trump card to counter Kevin, or did he have some other way to "persuade" Kevin? Either way, Alicia was eagerly anticipating the answer.

However, it's clear that Kevin, as the pinnacle of combat power, is not so easy to surpass. Even Otto, with his exceptional intelligence and mastery of the Void Treasury, is no exception in this regard.

To truly challenge Kevin, one would need at least Otto, the false god who has acquired the power of the Imaginary Number. The current Otto is far from that level.

So here, Otto chose another method to "force" Kevin to compromise.

"Submission or destruction... No, no, no, I don't think that's a good idea, because no matter how powerful you are, the order of this world is maintained by my destiny."

"If I am determined to obstruct it, your Stigmata Project will simply not be able to proceed."

"Of course, you can destroy Destiny with your invincible power, but how long would that take? Right now, what your World Serpent lacks most is time, isn't it?"

Otto looked at Kevin with a half-smile, as if victory was already assured.

Chapter Ninety-Six: Island Explosion Crow

Seeing Kevin remain silent, Otto pressed on while the iron was hot.

"Imagine the worst-case scenario: Destiny will pour all its resources and power into fighting the World Serpent to the very last moment. Yes, Destiny will definitely lose, but you will also lose your most precious thing: time!"

If Destiny and World Serpent were to go to war, World Serpent would undoubtedly emerge victorious in the end, and Otto was well aware of this.

If you ask why, it's because the Lord of the World Serpent is Kevin, an exceptionally powerful, bug-like figure!

Conversely, if we remove Kevin as the master, the World Serpent is nothing special in Otto's eyes, at most a slightly bigger problem than Anti-Entropy.

If that's not the case, why did the World Serpent have to lurk in the shadows and not dare to directly confront the curse of destiny before Kevin emerged from the Sea of ​​Quanta?
