Honkai: It’s broken, I have become the Herrscher of Corrosion?

"Oh, what did I say? Mei Mei is coming."

Kiana immediately showed a nervous expression when she heard this:

"What's the meaning……"

"Anti-Entropy discovered your whereabouts in Sky City, so they decided to look for you. But..."

"But what?"

"But between Mei and Dr. Tesla, isn't the distribution of combat power a bit uneven? In order to find your whereabouts, the entire Immortal Blade has arrived in Sky City."

In a corner of Sky Dome City, Rita, wearing the Hunting Suit Shadow Iron, was standing on a tall building.

"Your Excellency the Bishop, I have arrived in Tianqiong City. Please give me the next instructions."

"Two days ago, a Houkai energy leak occurred in Sky City. After checking the surveillance records, someone discovered K423. You and the other members of the Undying Blade have two tasks, one of which is to find her and bring her back."

"As you command. But...is the source of the information reliable? Could it be...a smokescreen thrown by Anti-Entropy?"

"The person who uploaded the photo is an intelligence dealer named Gray Snake. He has a technology that can monitor the city's network information."

"Gray Snake released the photos to show the sellers that he knows the whereabouts of K423."

After listening to Otto's explanation, Rita fell into deep thought:

"Technology for monitoring network information, gray...snake...could it be that behind the gray snake is the recently appeared world snake?"

"Rita, your idea is very correct. According to the preliminary investigation of Destiny, it was discovered that Gray Snake is the agent of the World Serpent planted in Sky City."

"I understand."

Rita and Otto had just finished their conversation when a new call came in from Alvette.

"Alvette, what's going on? Yes, I have arrived at the designated location... I see. Continue monitoring and report to me in an hour... Okay, that's it."

"The other members of the Immortals just witnessed a traitor from the Far East branch in Sky City... Lady Theresa couldn't hold her temper and was willing to expose her whereabouts to look for clues... It seems that the credibility of this information will be beyond imagination."

"Anti-Entropy should have provided a lot of support for us to find this place. Maybe if we keep chasing them, we can get a lot of rewards."

Thinking of this, Rita jumped off the roof and rushed to the location provided by Alvette at full speed.

After a while, Rita came to another dark high-rise building in Tiankong City. Looking down from here, the lights outside were colorful, and even in the middle of the night, there were still many people on the street. This scene made Rita feel deeply:

"Even if the outside world is destroyed by the collapse, this city... at least on the surface, is still so prosperous and safe, as if the disaster had never happened. However, the people here would never have thought that the culprit that caused the collapse is hiding under their noses at this moment..."

"Ok?"

Rita, who is good at tracking, lurking and assassination, noticed a slight noise coming from the dark environment behind her.

【Found an intruder, clear it out immediately! 】

As soon as the mechanical sound sounded, its body was cut open by Rita's sickle. Although it was invisible to the naked eye, judging from the time the sickle made contact with the other party and the force used, it should be a small robot.

"No, there's more than one."

The machines have infrared scanning that is invisible to the naked eye, so in theory, they can see others but others cannot see them. But unfortunately, their opponent is the professional counterpart Rita, who successfully destroyed all the robots before they opened fire by relying on abilities other than vision.

"Clap clap clap..."

Crisp applause rang out in the darkness, dim lights lit up in front of Rita, and a figure who looked like an adult male slowly walked up to her.

"Not bad, little girl. You took care of all my bodyguards so quickly."

Rita bowed very gracefully to the shadow:

"Mr. Gray Snake, good evening. Are you waiting for someone? Please don't misunderstand me. This is just my personal habit. I like to clean up unnecessary garbage before negotiations. This way, the negotiation venue can be cleaner and tidier."

"Ah, it seems that I have done unnecessary things... In order to compensate for your losses, I can provide you with a business with a generous reward."

"It seems that I have to take this business whether I want to or not..."

"Two days ago, you uploaded a surveillance photo on the Internet, which showed a girl."

"I think you know very well who she is and her value, otherwise you would not have chosen to expose her existence."

"My request is simple. Tell me her whereabouts."

Gray Snake's eyes fell on Rita's face:

"…So, since this is a business, what benefits can I get?"

"You'll gain a powerful ally and...get out of here safely."

"Ally? Although the World Serpent already has a very powerful and reliable ally, who would complain about having too many friends?"

"It's just that... from the very beginning, they threatened their lives to force the other party to submit. This makes me doubt the sincerity of the alliance."

"She could paralyze the entire world snake at any time, but she chose to cooperate for mutual benefit. And Tianming...has clearly seen the power of the Lord, but she thinks she can force the snake to submit with her own ridiculous means."

"This is really... a very sharp contrast... Are all the Valkyries of Destiny so overestimating their own abilities?"

Rita's expression was as if she hadn't heard the first half:

"It seems that you know who I am, so there is no reason to refuse."

"I knew who you were from the beginning, so I had every reason to refuse. Trading my own information for my own life? I'm afraid that goes against the spirit of business."

Rita shook her head with great regret:

"Mr. Gray Snake, it seems that you don't understand the value of life."

Gray Snake seemed to be amused by Rita's words:

"If I hand over the information, I can live? Please don't insult my intelligence. This is not my first day in business. Although life itself is a transaction, for people like me... death is just the beginning of the next transaction. Snakes are never creatures that succumb to death, do you understand?"

"Alas, you are more like a poet than an information dealer. I even feel reluctant to do it... But I'm sorry, it's a mission after all."

Seeing that the gray snake had no intention of handing over the information, Rita felt that there was no need for her to negotiate with it.

"There will definitely be no problem at this distance."

After confirming that there was no one else around, Rita struck the gray snake's neck with lightning speed.

"when!"

Before it touched the gray snake's neck, the sickle was blocked by something hard. Rita felt something was wrong and wanted to change her position quickly, but she found that the sickle seemed to be fixed by something and could not be retracted.

Rita was startled because until just now, she hadn't noticed that there was anyone there.

"If I can't get it, no one else can get it either, right? What a pity! I just reminded you to this extent, but you automatically ignored my good advice and put all your attention on me from beginning to end..."

The next moment, the whole room lit up, and the scene in front of Rita gradually became clear.

"It's you?!"

At this moment, Enosia held the front end of the sickle in her right hand and looked at Rita with a smile:

"I thought Miss Rita could always remain elegant. Seeing her look so panicked, it seems I have won the jackpot."

"I know what you want to ask. I have been...here since you entered this room."
