Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

She said hastily, and Durandal quickly tried to pass the other person.

But Rita simply took half a step and blocked the path of the strongest Valkyrie.

"Lady Durandal seems to be avoiding me lately."

With a smile, Rita said, her tone tinged with a hint of melancholy.

"Really? You must be imagining things."

Yulandel feigned ignorance.

"Perhaps." Rita chuckled, covering her mouth, then pointed to her cheek. "I didn't expect Lady Durandal to like these things. She has excellent taste!"

Compared to the girl's black uniform, the mask is indeed stylistically harmonious, perfectly highlighting the Valkyrie's heroic temperament, while the hollowed-out cloud patterns on it also add to the girl's cuteness.

"I sometimes want to change my style..."

Durandal nodded in agreement, a smile appearing on her face, but inwardly she couldn't help but curse that inhuman bastard once again.

If the opponent were willing to use the Honkai energy they used to leave a mark in their attack, the power of that long river of light arrows could increase by at least one level.

However... it can only be said that the other side didn't care about winning or losing the battle at all.

Or rather, that guy was so confident of his victory that he held back like that.

In fact, although the battle between the two sides did not end in exhaustion as it had last time, Durandal knew that she had lost.

Despite possessing the Black Abyss White Flower and the Moon Soul Armor, she could only manage a draw with her opponent, who even had the energy to draw a mark on her face.

You know, she had been on guard against him the whole time, but he still managed to get close to her easily and even scribbled on her face.

This is undoubtedly proof of her failure.

More importantly, there was the mark on her face... Even with the annihilation power of the Black Abyss White Flower, the girl couldn't quickly remove it.

Because within this pattern, which is smaller than a coin, the condensed Honkai energy is so abundant it's outrageous, and it can even repair itself by drawing upon external Honkai energy.

If it cannot be completely removed in a short time, the mark will soon return to its original state.

As always, the level of Honkai energy control that guy displayed was so high that it was almost impossible to even look up at him.

It can be said that the difficulty of leaving such a mark in a few seconds is about the same as drawing a landscape painting in the blink of an eye.

I really don't understand how long that guy practiced in private.

But with such incredible ability, the other party used it to draw a little goose on her face, and it was even in a cartoon style!

The only hope the girl could have was that the mark's stability would decrease slightly after absorbing free Honkai energy from the outside world.

In this way, as long as she persists in using the Black Abyss White Flower to remove it every day, she is confident that she can restore her face to its original state within a month.

The only saving grace is that over time the girl has become much more proficient in using the Black Abyss White Flower.

But she would rather not have such a promotion.

"That's it."

Upon hearing Durandal's explanation, Rita immediately smiled gently.

"No, that's right, that's exactly it, haha~"

Yulandel nodded vigorously.

"I thought it was related to the recently viral leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance."

Rita smiled, her eyes flashing with a murderous glint.

"W-What's going on so widely?"

Durandal sensed something was wrong.

Since returning to headquarters, she has been busy training and removing the marks, and has had no time to pay attention to the outside world.

"This is it……"

As she spoke, Rita brought up a projection screen and opened it to the announcement released by Anti-Entropy.

click -

Upon seeing the slander against herself and Destiny by Anti-Entropy in the announcement, Durandal couldn't help but clench her fists, her bones cracking like popping beans.

"That bastard—"

A surge of anger welled up in the girl's heart.

"Actually, this is normal, isn't it? Destiny has also tried to smear Anti-Entropy several times."

Rita smiled and comforted her.

Durandal was seeing this kind of tactic for the first time, so she was naturally furious, but as for Rita... she was already used to it.

"That guy, I'll definitely teach him a lesson next time!"

As she spoke, Durandal stormed off in a huff.

Watching the blonde girl's ever-charging figure disappear into the distance, Rita's eyes narrowed slightly: "It seems it really is related to that Anti-Entropy Alliance Leader..."

However, she couldn't possibly clean up after someone of that caliber.

This is really difficult...

Rita sighed and glanced at the Valkyries trembling with fear at what she had witnessed. She smiled slightly and then turned and left.

Durandal's anger is rare, but it's not something that needs to be kept strictly secret, so there's no need to pay attention to it.

The next day, a rumor began to circulate wildly at the Destiny headquarters: "[A Few Things That Need to Be Said About Durandal and the Leader of Anti-Entropy]".

Along with this, a craze for wearing masks also spread.

Chapter 163 After Defection, the Young Man Made Anti-Entropy Deeply Regretful

As the Third Honkai Impact came to an end, while the various factions of Schicksal reacted differently, significant tremors were also occurring in the upper echelons of Anti-Entropy.

"What? That child escaped from destiny?!"

After listening to Cocolia's report on the Long Sky City incident, Tesla couldn't help but shout out.

They had planned to hold a celebration banquet at headquarters after receiving news of the end of the Third Honkai Impact 3rd, and the champagne was already laid out. But now you're telling me the main character of this banquet ran away early?!

“Ms. Cocolia, we need a more detailed explanation.”

Looking at the blonde woman's noticeably haggard face on the screen, Einstein spoke calmly, though his tone was noticeably more forceful than usual.

"She's probably dissatisfied with the organization because she saw Raiden Mei being chosen as the host for the Gem Conquest experiment."

Cocolia waved her hand, indicating that she was tired and didn't want to talk anymore.

Shihen's defection took her two daughters with her, and even Xing, the only one left behind, is very dissatisfied with her. She is also feeling very sad right now.

But there was no other way. As the enforcer of anti-entropy, she had to step up and take charge, cleaning up the mess left behind by the boy's escape.

If she hadn't deployed manpower in time, the casualties from this collapse would have been at least several thousand more.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Tesla and Einstein were speechless for a moment.

Giving the Gem of Conquest to Cocolia was a unanimous decision, and having Raiden Mei participate in the Gem of Conquest experiment was also the result of their secret guidance.

After all, this could be considered Raiden Ryoma's last wish.

But... the hidden story behind this cannot be explained to outsiders.

Cocolia is now powerful, and she must make the other side feel that the situation is still under her control so that the fox will not feel threatened and become hostile to them.

However, they did not expect that although they had painstakingly deceived Cocolia and stabilized the entire radical faction, Shihen's side was in an uproar because of it.

Even if they say that implanting the Conqueror Gem was to save Raiden Mei's life, who do you think would believe that?

The only one who could resolve this situation is Raiden Mei's father, Raiden Ryoma, but he has already been killed...

For a moment, both top scientists felt overwhelmed.

Could it be that they really have absolutely no talent for strategy?

Despite having the most comprehensive intelligence, and even Cocolia being completely unaware of the truth, the final outcome still deviated from their expectations.

Not only is Raiden Mei's fate unknown, but even their most promising rising star boy has left in a huff, instantly pushing Anti-Entropy, which could have turned the tide with the help of the Third Herrscher, into an even deeper abyss.

The only one who probably benefited from this was Walter White.

The opponent really made a name for themselves this time, even the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny became their stepping stone to fame.

Although doubts remained about the outcome of that battle, it was ultimately the Anti-Entropy forces that took control of the battlefield.

This alone demonstrates the power of this leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance.

"Wait, what's that imposter doing there!?"

Tesla has finally discovered the crux of the problem.

According to the detailed battle report at the end, if that imposter hadn't joined in, the Third Honkai Impact could have been considered a victory for Anti-Entropy.

Because those children have defeated the Third Herrscher, albeit in a way that was somewhat different from what they had imagined.

And then... after the Herrscher of Thunder began to unleash her powers, the floating warships distributed around the battlefield could no longer know the specific details.

The electromagnetic interference is too severe.

"how could I know!?"

Cocolia simply rolled her eyes at the question about Tesla.

She still wanted to know how the other party had interfered with the Gem Conquest experiment.

"You didn't lure him here, did you?"

Tesla is suspicious.

The other party has a criminal record.

The Thunder Dragon Horse's body is still warm to this day.

"Don't spit on others!"

Cocolia immediately denied it.

As an enforcer of entropy reduction, she also has her pride, right?

How could she possibly say something like, "I was forced by Walter White to conduct experiments to conquer the gems"?

It was fortunate that Einstein and the other person didn't pursue the matter of Raiden Mei, otherwise she would have had to spend a lot more time explaining.

She just killed someone's father, and now she's going after Raiden Mei. Her conscience must be bothering her.

Of course, she was willing to abandon her conscience in order to protect something more important.

"You know the truth yourself, so don't give us any leverage against you!"

Tesla said fiercely.

Although there was no evidence, she still suspected that the other party was connected with Walter White.

Putting everything else aside, that announcement was issued in Cocolia's name.

"Ah……"

Cocolia merely sneered at Tesla's threat.

Two weaklings who only know how to hide in headquarters, how could they know how hard she works?

She had to deal with the madman Walter White while also balancing the various contradictions within Anti-Entropy; she felt like she was walking a tightrope.

Moreover, he had no one around to help him, and Bronya, whom he had finally taken a liking to, had run away with Seele.

As for Anne and Peggy... they are both still young and need more time to mature.

"By the way, I found this on Colonel Shihen's personal computer. As for what to do with him... you can decide for yourselves."

As she sighed, Cocolia's expression became complicated.

Although the boy's act of defection was extremely heinous, and he even took her two daughters with him, Cocolia surprisingly did not harbor much resentment in her heart.

Ultimately, she was in the wrong first.
