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

"Fu Hua?"

Durandal realized the key.

"No, it's nothing, it was just a slip of the tongue," Shihen quickly denied. "Anyway, I will definitely not let that imposter get away with this!"

“While I can understand your hatred for that guy, but…” Durandal paused slightly before continuing, “There is something I must tell you: Lord Walter Yang may still be alive in some form.”

"Impossible! I saw that imposter kill Mr. Welt and steal the Herrscher of Reason's core with my own eyes!"

Shihen immediately denied it.

"But during his battle with me, he was indeed interfered with by Lord Walter Yang."

"Youlandel said earnestly."

"So, in Miss Durandal's opinion, what is the imposter's purpose?"

Shihen asked with a cold laugh.

No one can clear Walter White's name through him!

“I don’t know either.” Yulandel shook her head slightly, appearing very sincere. “But I believe he must have deeper intentions.”

In short, please let me know if you have any thoughts.

At least when it comes to fighting that guy, I'm on your side."

She remained suspicious of Walter White's actions and hoped to get an answer someday.

Deep down, she never thought that guy was as tyrannical and evil as he appeared.

Even though Raiden Ryoma had been confirmed dead, she believed he was still alive.

After all, even Welt Young isn't completely dead yet, so who dares to say that Raiden Ryoma is definitely dead?

Unfortunately, when she discussed this matter with Raiden Mei, the latter immediately drew her sword, giving her no chance to analyze or discuss it further.

“…I will.” Shihen waved his hand and left. “Also, if Miss Durandal wants to know more, she might as well ask the headmistress.”

Having just completed her transaction with Einstein and Cocolia from Anti-Entropy, Theresa must be quite nervous about Durandal, the S-rank Valkyrie from headquarters.

Whether Durandal can seize this opportunity depends on the other party's ability.

At least, time traces don't care about the outcome.

He had a whole plan for guiding Durandal, enough to support her on a path opposite to Otto's.

"Senior Theresa..."

As the boy's figure receded into the distance, a hint of helplessness appeared on Durandal's face.

It was precisely because she couldn't get more information from Theresa that she turned to Shihen and the others.

But... what role did Fu Hua, the Shadow Knight, play in this incident?

Thinking about the boy's "slip of the tongue" just now, Durandal pondered to herself.

Chapter 225 The Quiet Storm Is Coming

In a grove of dead trees on the border between Germany and Denmark, an elderly man wearing a white coat and carrying a silver briefcase is running as fast as he can.

Even though he was slightly unsteady and his breathing had become extremely heavy, the old man dared not slow down in the slightest, as if some ferocious beast was chasing him from behind.

call out!

A pale blue ray, about the thickness of a thumb, suddenly flashed past, grazing the old man's calf and causing him to lose his balance and fall into the snow.

When the old man pulled his head out of the snow, three fully armed girls appeared in front of him, with several pistols with a distinctly Destiny style pointed at all parts of his body.

“Dr. Magi, hand over what you stole.” A faint, eerie blue light shone from the muzzle of the gun, and the leading Valkyrie said coldly, “You are the chief scientist of the Third Research Institute of Destiny.”

"As long as you sincerely repent, His Holiness the Bishop will forgive your mistake."

Death loomed close, but Maggie clung tightly to the silver briefcase in her arms, a resolute sneer appearing on her weathered face: "Ha, little girl, when I decided to escape Fate with this, I had already disregarded life and death."

I will never return this thing, no matter what.

Seeing this, the leading Valkyrie couldn't help but sigh and say, "That's a real shame, Dr. Magi."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Valkyrie's finger on the trigger tightened, and a dark blue ray shot out from the muzzle, heading straight for the old man's head, and then...

It was blocked by a purple barrier with a starry sky-like hue.

"who!?"

A Valkyrie shouted alertly, her gaze fixed on the man standing in a tree not far away.

"Cocolia's people have finally arrived?" Seeing this, Maki's expression softened slightly, but she immediately frowned again. "Why did she send only you? Doesn't she understand the significance of this Tranquility Gem!?"

"Old man, you should feel honored for this."

"If Cocolia hadn't repeatedly asked, I wouldn't have bothered making this trip."

"I say with a cold arrogance," the man said as he leaped down from the tree, splashing up countless snowflakes. His hood was slightly lifted, revealing a face full of arrogance.

"The one who reverses entropy!?"

The leading Valkyrie screamed, and at the same time quickly turned her gun towards the man and pulled the trigger.

Upon seeing their captain's actions, the other two Valkyries immediately reacted and launched an attack in coordination.

In an instant, several rays and beams burst forth, attacking the man from different angles, blocking any possible escape routes.

But the man showed no intention of dodging the Valkyries' attacks; a pale purple barrier silently appeared and instantly blocked them all.

"A bunch of trash, what a waste of my time!"

With a disdainful look, the man snapped his fingers, and several deep, dark purple spheres suddenly appeared. A tremendous force descended upon the Valkyries, twisting their bodies into pretzel shapes, and countless drops of hot blood splattered onto the snow, quickly cooling.

"W-who are you?"

Watching a team of elite Valkyries be instantly wiped out, a hint of fear flashed in Maki's eyes.

In his memory, there was no such terrifying figure in Anti-Entropy.

"Remember this, my name is Walter." The man casually brushed a few snowflakes off his clothes, his expression incredibly arrogant. "From now on, you are under my control, Anti-Entropy."

"The leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, Walter White!?"

Maggie couldn't help but scream.

He had thought that he was only dealing with Cocolia, but he never expected that even a big shot of this caliber would appear.

But... isn't it rumored that this leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance wears a white mask?

Looking at the man's unmasked young face, Maki couldn't help but feel a sense of doubt.

"What white or black? My name is Walter, the real Walter!" the man said, giving Maki a cold, arrogant glance and licking his lips with his long tongue. "If you forget my name again, even if you're someone Cocolia specifically asked for, I'll still teach you a lesson."

Maki: "..."

If you're going to threaten me, then why stick out your tongue?

And wasn't this guy originally [Walter White]?

She's not the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, yet she uses the name Welt... What exactly is Cocolia trying to do?

According to the rumors he heard, the previous leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance was killed by [Walter White] because he used the name Welt.

For a moment, Magi felt as if she had been caught up in the power struggle within the upper echelons of Anti-Entropy.

Ignoring Maki's little scheme, and without even taking the suitcase from her to check the contents, the man walked eastward with his hands in his pockets, saying, "Let's go, old man, don't waste my time."

"..."

After glancing at the three Valkyries' twisted and unrecognizable corpses, Maki couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

If he could, he didn't want anyone else to be harmed because of this Tranquility Gem.

Unfortunately, reality does not change according to his will.

In the end, before she could even close the terrified eyes of the group, Maggie hurriedly followed the man.

In the snowy forest, only three corpses remained, gradually being covered by snowflakes.

-------------------------------------

Destiny headquarters, floating island.

"Your Excellency, Dr. Magi has taken the Tranquility Gem."

Based on the traces left at the scene, it appears that Anti-Entropy dispatched the same First Herrscher clone used in the previous attack on the Far East branch.

Amber bowed slightly to the blond man before her and respectfully reported.

In the recent attack on St. Freya, only one enemy who could use what appeared to be the power of the Herrscher of Reason left behind a corpse.

After recovering and analyzing the corpse, Destiny naturally discovered that it shared a high degree of genetic similarity with the First Herrscher in the database.

After all, since the first Honkai event in 1952, the first Herrscher of Destiny, Welt Joyce, spent a full three years at the Schicksal Research Institute.

"It seems the plan is progressing fairly smoothly."

With a smile, Otto rested one hand on the table and rubbed his forehead. His sunken eyes made him look like he had been practicing cultivation to excess.

Ever since he obtained some information from the deal with the gray snake, he has been thinking about how to get rid of the stumbling block that is [Walter White].

After much deliberation, he decided to implement the Tranquil Gem Project, which had been set out long ago.

Only on this battlefield, where fate dictates, can he have a better chance of winning.

"Your Excellency, would you like to rest for a while?"

Seeing Otto's exhausted appearance, Amber couldn't help but ask with concern.

"unnecessary."

Otto waved his hand dismissively.

He has a body of Soul Steel; at worst, we can just replace some parts.

"Notify St. Freya to prepare. Destiny cannot turn a blind eye to the theft of the Tranquility Gem."

Otto rubbed his temples and gave the order.

Even if it's just acting, fate still has to be presented as something.

"Yes, Lord Bishop."

He said respectfully, and Amber then turned and left.

In his office, where he was now alone, Otto couldn't help but smile slightly.

Walter White, this time, let me test your limits...

Chapter 226 The Actors Are Ready

Wow! This place is so beautiful!

As soon as Kiana stepped into the Queen Hotel, she couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, her eyes darting around like a country bumpkin entering a grand garden.

In fact, for the white furry dumpling who has been living a nomadic life for many years, this four-star hotel in Singapore is indeed no different from the Grand View Garden.

The exquisite and elegant decor, the uniformed service staff... all of this was something the girl had never seen before.

"Kiana~"

Seeing the white fluffy ball like this, Mei couldn't help but whisper a reminder.

"Ok?"

Turning her head to look at Mei, Kiana's big eyes revealed an incredibly clear look of confusion.

"Since we've all come out to have some fun, let's go grab something to eat first."

Shihen smiled and said.

Well, in this operation to reclaim the Tranquility Gem, the Destiny faction only deployed three people.

Shihen had nothing more to say about this blatant phishing attempt.

This is a major matter concerning a Herrscher core. Even if you don't send out an S-rank Valkyrie, you should at least send a team of A-rank Valkyries, right?

But the result... you have the nerve to only send three B-level units?
