Before Cocolia could speak, Theresa spoke up with a cold face. Although she had decided to come and help, it didn't mean she would give Cocolia a friendly look.
“Ms. There’s no need for this, Theresa.”
Theresa remained silent, and Cocolia lost interest in further provoking her, switching to a serious tone.
"To express my gratitude, I have sent people to meet St. Freya's group. However, it seems there has been a slight mishap. They have been attacked, so I request that you all go and rescue them."
Cocolia's serious expression and tone didn't sound like she was lying. Furthermore, Theresa sensed from Cocolia's attitude that the person she sent was quite important.
"Okay, send me the coordinates."
After obtaining the coordinates, the Helios sped forward and soon arrived above a piece of land above the City of the Abyss.
Theresa led Bronya and the others down first, while Einstein mobilized the mech forces and rushed to the battlefield.
"Lilia, I destroyed one more mech than you. So, according to the bet, your little cake is mine!"
"Lilia admits Rosalia won, but before leaving, Lilia ate all the cakes, so it's Lilia's victory."
"Ah! No way? Lilia, give me back my little cake!"
Theresa swatted away the mechs along the way and heard two people talking around a corner not far away. They sounded like children.
Just as Theresa was wondering what was going on, Bronya floated over without a word, smashed the nearby mechs with a few punches, and saw the two girls among the wreckage, thinking to herself, "Just as I thought."
"Lilia, give me back my little cake!"
"You idiot Rosalia, someone's here."
"Really? Let me see, it's Bronya!"
"It's definitely her, Lilia can't be wrong about that iconic big drill!"
Rosalia saw Bronya, stopped playing with Lilia, and waved her little hand at Bronya.
"Rosalia, Lilia, it really is you two."
Bronya approached Rosalia and Lilia. Since she was floating, she was naturally a little taller than the two of them, and looked down at them.
"Bronya, it's been a long time!"
Rosalia boisterously jumped around Bronya, pulling Lilia along in circles, making Bronya a little dizzy.
"Bronya, who are these two little ones?"
Theresa and the others followed and, upon seeing Rosalia and the other woman, especially noticing the non-human parts of their bodies, became suspicious.
"Hmph, listen up! We are the famous Honkai Idols, the Vodka Girls, Rosalia!"
"Lilia."
To match Rosalia's expression, Lilia perked up and struck an extremely chuunibyou (delusional) pose with her, making Yuno wonder if Luo Chen would join them if he saw it.
"Headmaster, these two are Bronya's companions from the orphanage. The one in pink is her older sister Rosalia, and the one in blue is her younger sister Lilia."
Bronya introduced the two women to Theresa, noticing the horns on their heads and the tails on their backs, and asked, "Rosalia, what's with the horns and tails on you two?"
"You mean this? Is it pretty? Do you want to touch it?"
Rosalia stretched out her tail and placed it in front of Bronya, wanting her to try it out, but Bronya politely declined. She was now more interested in knowing what was going on.
"Actually, this happened after Lilia and I had an accident, and then Cocolia's mother had surgery to save us. That's when the tail and horns grew."
"They injected the genes of Honkai Beasts."
Theresa immediately guessed what Rosalia meant by the surgery, which surprised Yuno and Lilith.
“Ms. Theresa, it seems you have finished here as well.”
Einstein arrived with several mechs, his expression far from relaxed, and delivered some bad news to the group.
"Judging from the situation just now, not only are there unknown forces in Haiyuan City, but even the Valkyrie troops of Destiny have arrived. The two sides are locked in a tug-of-war outside Anti-Entropy's defense line, but the defense line may be breached by them at any time."
"So we need to get into Haiyuan City as soon as possible, right?"
Einstein nodded in agreement with Theresa's words, but said somewhat awkwardly, "That's right. However, to ensure the safety of Abyss City, we previously designated the entrance's location within a certain area, and the entrance's location was changed periodically. But now the signal has been blocked by Destiny..."
"So we still have to go look for it."
"Well, actually we were sent by Cocolia's mother to meet you, but we haven't been able to contact you and we've run into some trouble."
Rosalia interrupted Einstein and Theresa's conversation, raising her little hand and explaining why they hadn't been able to contact each other.
"Then things will be much simpler."
Einstein breathed a sigh of relief. Although finding the entrance to Abyss City wouldn't take long, time was precious, and wasting even a second could have serious consequences.
"So, Rosalia, can you take us into Abyss City now?"
"I will handle it!"
"Alright, let's get back on the ship right now and head towards Sea Abyss City."
Back in Helios, Rosalia cheerfully shared many interesting things with Bronya, while Lilia occasionally chimed in with her own comments, gradually easing Bronya's heavy mood.
Yuno looked at the view of the deep sea outside the window, her right hand trembling involuntarily. She forcibly pressed her right hand down with her left hand, and seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she quietly left the bridge.
Theresa was discussing the next steps with Einstein when she noticed that Yuno was acting strangely. She paused the discussion and followed Yuno to see where she was going.
After leaving the bridge, Yuno found a deserted corner, leaned against the cold wall, and slowly slid down until she squatted down, her head against the wall, seemingly lost in thought.
Yuno, are you alright?
Theresa came to Yuno's side, and seeing that Yuno hadn't noticed her, she spoke very softly, as if afraid of disturbing her.
"Dean, I'm fine."
Yuna hung her head, a smile on her face, but her eyes were already wet and her vision was blurry.
"How could you possibly be alright in this state?"
Theresa knelt down to comfort Yuno, but couldn't understand why she was sad. Just as she was at a loss, she suddenly remembered something.
Are you worried about Luo Chen?
Yuno remained silent, nodded gently, sat on the floor, buried her head between her legs, her hair obscuring her face, so Theresa could not see her expression.
"Don't worry, we will find him."
Theresa placed her hand on Yuno's shoulder, silently comforting the injured girl. She firmly believed that with Luo Chen's strength, he would definitely be alright.
"We will find him, we definitely will."
Chapter 153 Like the Dawn
Helios arrived at the entrance to Abyss City. After everyone on the ship confirmed that everything was ready, they disembarked together and headed to Abyss City.
"Welcome, everyone from St. Freya. And Dr. Einstein, it's been a long time since we last met."
Cocolia led a group of people to welcome Theresa and the others, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes when she saw Bronya at the back of the crowd.
"Let's skip the pleasantries and get to the point about what we need."
Theresa's words did not surprise Cocolia. Rather, it would have been strange for Cocolia if Theresa had approached her with great enthusiasm to chat.
"Since Ms. Theresa has said so, I won't go into any further details."
Cocolia led the group to the room containing the Eye of the Abyss. Einstein frowned upon seeing their destination and began explaining to Theresa what the Eye of the Abyss was.
"Cocolia, the information you're talking about, it can't be..."
"Dr. Einstein is right. This is all the news I have for you regarding Luo Chen."
Cocolia deliberately kept everyone in suspense, bringing up a screen displaying recent data from the Eye of the Abyss before continuing, "According to my observations, Luo Chen is currently in the Sea of Quanta."
"This is impossible."
Einstein refuted Cocolia's statement, saying that Luo Chen disappeared in the imaginary space and could not possibly appear in the quantum sea, which was utter nonsense.
“Nothing is impossible. When the Eye of the Abyss opened some time ago, I made an observation and found traces of Luo Chen’s Honkai energy right below the Eye of the Abyss. It can be concluded that Luo Chen must have appeared inside.”
"Believe it or not, I've told you all the information."
Theresa was considering whether to believe Cocolia when her communicator started making noise. When she checked it, she found that Otto had hacked into her communicator without her noticing.
"My lovely little Theresa, do you miss your grandpa?"
"Grandpa! What are you doing?"
Theresa was shocked that Otto was communicating with her at this time. She tried to regain control of the communicator, but her skills were insufficient, so she could only listen to it.
"You should be in the Sea Abyss City of Anti-Entropy by now."
Otto's words made everyone present tense, fearing that a group of Valkyries or S-class warriors would jump out from some corner at any moment and wipe them all out. But reality seemed to be different.
"Don't be so tense, frowning all the time is bad for your skin."
Otto's tone was like that of a grandfather concerned about his granddaughter, and even more so if you ignored the villainous smile on his face. Indeed, only the dead Otto was the good Otto.
"You're probably looking for Luo Chen right now. I can give you some information. Little Theresa, would you like to hear it?"
Is Otto's word credible? Theresa doesn't know. He was the culprit behind Luo Chen's disappearance, and now he's jumping out to say he knows Luo Chen's whereabouts. It's hard not to suspect that he has some kind of conspiracy.
"Don't look at me with that bitter, resentful look, little Theresa. It breaks my heart to see you like that."
Otto feigned injury, but eventually couldn't help but laugh out loud, squinting as he told Theresa the truth.
"Just as that anti-entropy executor said, Luo Chen is indeed in the Sea of Quanta. I also have some information that Miss Bronya would be very interested in: Miss Seele Voller is currently with Luo Chen."
