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

"Um... Mei, Sirin is still young, she doesn't understand at all..."

As he tried to explain, Shihen saw the gold in the white fluffy ball's eyes quickly fade, leaving only a silly blue.

Hey! Don't cause trouble and then run away, Sirin-chan!

This could easily kill someone!

In a daze, Shihen could already see the wood-chopping knife hanging above his head.

Left with no other choice, Shihen could only give Yae Sakura a subtle wink.

If the opponent utilizes the organizational characteristics of the World Serpent, this chaotic situation can be completely avoided.

After all, you're people who are supposed to save the world, how can you let yourself get caught up in such personal feelings?

"Ms. Mei..."

As if sensing the boy's feelings, Yae Sakura finally spoke up, "The journey back to the World Serpent headquarters overlaps somewhat with the Schicksal route, so we can still hitch a ride with the Church of Schicksal."

In any case, she is now one of the three S-class Valkyries of Destiny, so it's only reasonable for her to hitch a ride on their coattails, right?

Shi Hen: “…”

Next time, let's beat up that rebellious priestess too.

Upon hearing this, Mei's gloomy expression vanished, replaced by a smile, and her gaze towards the white fluffy ball softened considerably: "Kiana, did you hear that?"

Before we part ways, we still have a long time to catch up on our feelings~

Even if the person causing trouble is the Herrscher of the Void, they are ultimately using Kiana's body.

So... be prepared, Kiana!

Kiana: "..."

Can she choose to refuse?

The white-fuzzy ball of fur cast a pleading look at the boy, and unsurprisingly received a thoughtful back view in return.

"..."

On the other side, Anna was still trying to shrink back and remain invisible.

She felt as if she had stepped into a battlefield she shouldn't have entered.

Chapter 120 The Frost Has Fallen, the Great Void Will Stand Tall

"...I see. So many things happened afterward."

On the Hyperion, Theresa nodded slightly after listening to Shihen and the others' story, a relieved smile on her face. "But no matter what, as long as you can come back safely, that's more important than anything else."

For some unknown reason, Kiana, who is usually a boisterous and silly niece, suddenly became quiet and listless, just like when Himeko nagged her for three whole hours after she failed her makeup exam.

Even Mei, whom he had finally managed to reunite with, didn't get to say more than a few words to her before she and the World Serpent priestess asked for a small transport ship and left.

In short, as long as no one among Shihen and the others is sacrificed, it will be the most perfect victory.

After all, their enemy this time is [Walter White]!

Looking at his appearances over the years, including those of Ryoma, Welt Yang, Siegfried, Fu Hua, and Cocolia, it's fair to say that this powerful figure, who should have been on the same human side as them, is even more ruthless when it comes to killing than the Honkai.

To survive against such a ruthless person is indeed a victory.

"But that Night Owl was taken away by [Walter White]. I wonder what that guy will do with this power."

He sighed softly, his expression becoming more serious.

"Chen Tianwu..."

Upon hearing this, Anna's face also darkened.

When Manila collapsed, she was unable to stop Walter White from taking Chen Tianwu away.

Now that time has passed, she can only watch helplessly as the same thing happens again.

Even after the boy's guidance, she no longer blamed herself excessively for such things, but deep down, the young girl still felt powerless and regretful.

"You've done more than enough to prevent them from taking Miss Anna away as well, Alliance Leader."

Calmly, Einstein looked at the group with admiration, "That guy is, after all, Walter White; he's not someone you can easily deal with."

After all these events, the terrifying image of [Walter White] has become deeply ingrained in people's minds, and it would not be an exaggeration to call him a world-shattering demon.

Even if there was an element of calculation from [Walter White], the efforts of Shihen and others in keeping Anna, the Herrscher of Ice, alive cannot be ignored.

"In that case, the Fifth Honkai Impact can be declared over."

Rita's gaze swept lightly over Anna as she spoke with a smile.

"There are also people on Coral Island who need to be resettled."

Shihen shook his head.

Although the Honkai energy was prevented from erupting directly on the coral island, a significant amount of Honkai energy remained in the land of this artificial island, making the area unsuitable for human habitation for a long time.

Properly resettling the nearly two million people who originally lived on the coral island would be a real test of Destiny and Anti-Entropy's organizational capabilities.

Well, hopefully Peggy's hair can hold up.

Should we commission Mebius of Paradise to research a hair growth potion?

With his fingers gently stroking his chin, Shihen seriously considered the feasibility of this matter.

"Alliance Leader Shihen is right, now is indeed not the time to relax."

Hearing the boy's words, Rita nodded slightly, her eyes filled with admiration as she looked at him.

With a sense of vigilance in times of peace and composure in the face of change, she finally understood why this boy, who was a year younger than her, was able to become the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance.

There may be some element of chance involved, but it is by no means just a coincidence.

"By the way, didn't Bronya come along?"

Looking around the fairly spacious conference room, Shihen couldn't help but ask, a perfectly timed look of confusion on his face.

Of the Anti-Entropy team, apart from Himeko and Peggy who are still overseeing operations on Coral Island, everyone else has already arrived here. Even Wendy, who was originally supposed to stay on Coral Island, is now on the Hyperion.

Among the members of the Azure Sea group who both became Herrschers, only Seele, the little angel, is still trying to heal him, while Duck has already disappeared.

"Bronya has already returned to Anti-Entropy."

After healing the wound on the boy's back, Seele tried to replenish his life force to alleviate the deficit caused by the Sea of ​​Quanta, and then gently explained.

"Just as you were fighting [Walter White], Anti-Entropy headquarters was suddenly attacked by an unknown enemy, and hundreds of people fell into a coma of unknown cause."

In order to investigate the cause of the incident, Ms. Theresa and I discussed it and decided that Bronya should return to headquarters first.

Einstein explained methodically.

Although both are Herrschers, Bronya, the Herrscher of Reason, is more reliable than Seele, who appears more mature but is more naive.

In fact, if it weren't for the boy's perspective, she would have completely designated Bronya as the Herrscher of Reason.

"Huh? Wouldn't those people still at headquarters be in great danger?"

Upon hearing this, Kiana, who had been tormented by Mei to the point of being in a daze, finally came back to her senses.

After all, Kaslana's blood still flows in her veins, so the girl is always particularly concerned about matters related to Honkai.

"Tesla has activated the base's defenses and organized the evacuation of headquarters personnel."

Theresa explained, "Moreover, although the cause is still unclear, those who have fallen into a coma seem to be just asleep, and all their vital signs are perfectly normal."

"Well……"

Upon hearing the nun's words, Shihen frowned and began to ponder.

"Shihen, what have you thought of?"

Noticing the boy's unusual behavior, Theresa asked with concern.

"Judging from its current performance, this ability seems to be very similar to that of the Eighth Herrscher from the previous civilization era."

Shihen said hesitantly.

While not as comprehensive as Destiny, Anti-Entropy does possess information about the Herrschers of the previous civilization era.

"Yes, Einstein also mentioned this."

Theresa nodded at the boy's guess, then immediately denied it, saying, "But that's impossible, isn't it?"

"The Fifth Herrscher appeared only a few days ago, how could a new Herrscher appear so quickly?"

As she spoke, Theresa chuckled and couldn't help but shake her head.

Her understanding of the Honkai was not yet updated, and she never imagined that the Herrschers would appear so frequently.

“But just a few hours ago, Night Owl of the World Serpent Organization became the new Herrscher right in front of Kiana and me.”

Looking directly at the nun, Shihen's tone was full of solemnity.

Theresa: "..."

Has the world really changed?

"I immediately notified Tesla and Bronya, telling them that the enemy is likely a Herrscher."

Upon hearing this, Einstein was immediately moved to speak.

The methods for dealing with ordinary enemies and dealing with a Herrscher are completely different.

Given Anti-Entropy's current strategy, if the enemy is indeed a newly born Herrscher of Knowledge, then it is highly likely that they will be completely defeated.

Even Bronya, the Herrscher of Reason, could be defeated if she were to fight another Herrscher without any preparation.

On the other side, after glancing at Einstein, who had hurriedly contacted the Anti-Entropy headquarters, and sensing the increasingly tense atmosphere in the air, Rita's gaze then fell on Anna beside her.

“Anna Shaniat, now... let’s have a serious talk about your dereliction of duty in this operation?”

With a light laugh, Rita narrowed her wine-red eyes slightly.

"what?"

Anna's mouth involuntarily opened wide, and she didn't react for a moment.

malfeasance?

When did she neglect her duties?

"In this operation on Coral Island, as the captain of the Snow Lotus Squad, you did nothing at all and even repeatedly disobeyed the bishop's orders."

As she spoke softly, Rita's expression became more serious. "Therefore, as the Commander-in-Chief of the Coral Island Front, I hereby formally announce the stripping of you from all your positions in the Valkyrie Squad and your complete expulsion from the organization."

From this day forward, you are no longer a Valkyrie of the Church of Destiny.

"what???"

Anna's mouth gaped open, her pupils dilated, and tears welled up in her eyes. "Lady Rita! You...you...please give me another chance! I promise I'll complete my missions properly from now on and I won't make any mistakes!"

Even... even if it means starting over as a lowly Valkyrie, please, please don't send me away!!

From the time she could remember, Anna was taught to become an excellent Valkyrie.

Therefore, while other children were still playing and cuddling in their parents' arms, she had already begun to receive Shaniat-style combat training.

It can be said that becoming an outstanding Valkyrie was her lifelong wish and dream, and the only meaning of her life.

Besides that, she couldn't imagine any other possibility for her life.

But now, Rita has completely rejected this way of life.

"..."

Looking at the girl in front of her who suddenly burst into tears, Rita couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

This child is far too naive, isn't he?

But it is precisely for this reason that she absolutely cannot allow the other party to remain in Destiny.

Placing a Herrscher in Schicksal is like putting cheese in front of a mouse. Who can guarantee that Welt White will keep his promise and not harm Anna?

Rita clenched her fist silently, her resolve growing stronger.

She must completely expel Anna, the Herrscher of Ice!

You bad woman!
