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

Seeing that everyone was temporarily distracted, Theresa quickly straightened her back, shoved Judas aside, and got up to ask seriously, "Fu Hua, how are things going on your end?"

Also, what's wrong with Kiana?

As she spoke, Theresa's gaze fell on Kiana, who was unconscious and leaning on Seele's shoulder, and her eyes immediately filled with worry.

"This is a long story, let's explain it somewhere else."

Fu Hua shook her head as her gaze swept over the medical area, which was almost indistinguishable from ruins, her expression full of complexity.

Although their initial goal upon leaving the Hyperion was simply to prevent Otto from destroying the current timeline.

However, with the forceful intervention of [Walter White], the seriousness of the situation immediately escalated several levels, making Otto's actions seem insignificant for a moment.

“That’s true. The situation on our side doesn’t seem to be something that can be explained in just a few words.”

Looking at the boy beside her, Himeko rubbed her forehead and sighed, her eyes filled with deep helplessness.

First, a guy with strength no less than an S-class Valkyrie suddenly appeared and even slipped up to the boy's side.

Then the boy was suspected of being the true form of [Walter White], and then he even revealed the power that should belong to the Herrscher of Binding...

Thinking about these almost unbelievable things, Himeko realized with a profound understanding that she had completely fallen behind the current version.

The world has ultimately become something she can no longer understand.

Before long, in an exceptionally spacious conference room in the Hyperion, Theresa and Fu Hua's groups recounted the events that had occurred both inside and outside the Hyperion.

"...So that's how it is. Otto actually left behind such a plan." Listening to Theresa's explanation, and looking at Li Sushang who was constantly looking around and seemed restless, Fu Hua couldn't help but let out a long sigh, a hint of lingering fear flashing in her eyes.

If Otto had sent someone other than Li Sushang, but a more ruthless and decisive assassin, the boy would probably be dead on the spot by now.

Realizing this as well, Wendy and the others also became angry.

"Please forgive me, everyone. The whereabouts of [Walter White] are too mysterious. Bishop Otto must have resorted to this tactic out of concern."

Rita tried to explain to Otto.

"Now that I suspect you've already sided with [Walter White], shouldn't I also take action to verify it?"

Hearing this, Wendy raised an eyebrow, showing no intention of accepting the answer. Putting the boy in danger based solely on unfounded speculation, she felt Otto's death was far too easy.

That is to say, the other party died without leaving even ashes, otherwise she would have to whip the corpse to vent her hatred.

"In my opinion, Otto lost his mind a long time ago because he killed Karen."

He clearly can't stand to see us doing well, and he's trying to sabotage us in various ways!

"I'm not happy about it," Shi Bao said angrily, and his gaze toward Rita and Li Sushang also became less friendly.

She's always been straightforward and honest; she would never do anything like repaying evil with kindness.

Anyone who dares to mess with her, she'll punch them back!

Sensing the sudden shift in atmosphere to a more somber tone, Rita's expression darkened slightly, while Li Sushang remained as carefree and optimistic as ever.

Having been awake for only a short time and having not yet experienced the oppression of [Walter White], Li Dazhentou had absolutely no concept of what the others were discussing.

Even in her mind, if someone wanted to hold her accountable for working for Otto, she could simply admit her mistake and soften her stance; it shouldn't be enough for anyone to hold a grudge against her.

After all, she didn't cause any irreparable damage.

"Alright, that's all over now. I wasn't hurt. Let's all focus on the present."

Noticing the change in atmosphere, Shihen quickly spoke up to dissuade them. "The Alliance Leader is right."

Although Otto's plan has failed, considering the circumstances revealed in this incident, we don't actually have much room to maneuver.

Einstein sighed softly and echoed.

"That Otto guy, he's so restless even in death, he's caused us such a huge mess!"

Thinking of the actions of [Walter White] as described by Fu Hua and others, Tesla immediately began to complain with a face full of resentment.

"However, since Grandpa's authority was taken away by [Walter White], what about the binding power on that mark?"

Touching her chin, Theresa keenly sensed the blind spot.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought, except for Peggy, who sat upright with her eyes closed and her mind at ease.

“I think this is probably Otto expressing his repentance.” After a long pause, Fu Hua finally gave an answer.

First, we can rule out the possibility that the Time Mark is [Walter White]. The source of the power in that boy can only be Otto.

"Huh? That guy actually had such thoughts?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Bao was the first to express doubt.

"Perhaps Otto would rather not let Walter White have his way than we would want."

Himeko said in a somewhat languid tone.

After all, the only people connected to the power of restraint are Otto and Welt White. It can't be said that Welt White transferred the power to the boy, can it?

"grandfather……"

Thinking about the various possible reasons why Otto entrusted his power to the boy, Theresa's expression became incredibly complicated.

Even though she had accepted that Otto was a bad person, she still hoped that he could do something good.

Hearing Fu Hua's guess, Shi Hen's expression became somewhat indescribable.

As the third leader of Anti-Entropy, he should naturally be opposed to Otto, and it is impossible for him to easily accept such a gift from his enemy.

Otherwise, how could he convince the people of Anti-Entropy?

"Since Otto has made his choice, then you can rest assured and accept this power, Alliance Leader."

At the very least, we absolutely cannot let Walter White's plan succeed.

As if sensing the boy's feelings at that moment, Einstein forced a smile and said...

Even though she was a veteran of Anti-Entropy, she didn't want the boy to get involved with Otto from the bottom of her heart.

But now that the die is cast, she can't very well ask the boy to give up this power, can she?

Moreover, they have even more troublesome enemies to deal with than Otto. "Exactly, since Otto doesn't mind, why not use this power?"

If you have any objections, then let Otto jump out of his grave!

Understanding Einstein's considerations as well, Tesla encouraged him, saying, "Didn't the Time Mark Alliance Leader say that power itself is neither good nor bad? The key lies only in how we use it?"

Smiling, Anna looked at the boy with tenderness in her eyes. "I'm sorry, I got caught up in appearances this time."

Sensing everyone's concern, Shi Hen's furrowed brows immediately relaxed.

"It seems like St. Freya has gained another Herrscher."

Looking at the boy who had finally accepted the constraints of authority, Himeko couldn't help but sigh.

In an instant, the air fell silent, and everyone's expressions became somewhat bewildered.

Despite various reasons, the density of Herrschers in St. Freya is indeed ridiculously high.

drop--

Suddenly, an electronic notification sound rang out in the silence.

It's the communication terminal on Rita's body.

Rita gave everyone an apologetic look, then opened her communication app and her face instantly turned pale.

"Rita, what happened?"

Noticing the change in the maid's expression, Theresa asked with concern.

"Lady Theresa..."

Feeling the tenderness in the nun's gaze, Rita let out a long breath, and her expression regained some composure. "Just now, [Walter White] issued a new episcopal decree, announcing that he would step down from his position as episcopal."

"Huh? That guy is really that kind?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Bao frowned and immediately asked a question in return.

"Moreover, his designated successor..."

Rita continued, her gaze fixed on the black-haired youth beside her, "It's Alliance Leader Shihen!"

No, to be more precise, the successor designated by [Walter White] is the Time Mark Alliance Leader, who is also the leader of the North American branch!

PS: *cough*..._(°w°」 ∠)_

Chapter 211 The Young Man Refuses to Resign as Bishop

Rita, after three attempts to persuade him, achieved her goal.

"Holy crap! Is that guy out of his mind? Does he think this is still sixty years ago?! Let him come here if he dares, and I'll have Titans blow his brains out!"

Upon hearing Rita's words, Tesla couldn't help but start cursing.

If [Walter White] had simply allowed the boy to inherit the position of Bishop of Destiny, she might have praised him for being pragmatic.

But they added the qualifier "North American branch leader"!

It's important to remember that sixty years ago, when Anti-Entropy was still the North American branch, they paid a heavy price to thwart Otto's plot to destroy the North American branch and won Anti-Entropy's independent status through a battle of iron and blood.

But now, with just a single warrant, [Walter White] wants to make them kneel back down?

What does this person think of Walter Joyce, Thomas Edison, and all those who sacrificed their lives for the cause of anti-entropy and independence?!

"I'm sorry, Miss Rita, but I can't accept that!"

His expression quickly turned serious, and Shihen firmly refused, "The reason why anti-entropy exists is because of its spirit of freedom and independence, which is incomparable to anything else."

While the position of Bishop of Destiny is indeed tempting, as the third leader of Anti-Entropy, he should uphold his own integrity.

"I understand how you all feel right now, but the reason Lady Durandal was able to return to Schicksal in the first place was because [Walter White] wanted to use Lady Durandal to control Schicksal. Now that he has given up on Schicksal, and we have lost contact with Lady Durandal..."

As she spoke, Rita paused slightly, her expression instantly becoming much more serious. "In the worst-case scenario, we must ensure that destiny does not spiral out of control."

Although the Valkyries of Schicksal may not be able to play a substantial role when facing enemies of Herrscher rank or higher.

However, when faced with Honkai Beasts and other phenomena caused by Honkai, these Valkyries remain a valuable force in maintaining order.

"What does Miss Rita mean?"

Upon hearing this, Shihen frowned deeply.

"I hope that Alliance Leader Shihen can assist in presiding over the overall situation of destiny!"

Rita said firmly.

If Durandal hadn't gone missing, then there would naturally be no need to worry about the situation at Destiny.

However, in their current situation, her and Amber's prestige is not enough to deter those with ulterior motives within the church.

Even as a former S-class Valkyrie, her authority within Schicksal is still far greater than that of a typical A-class Valkyrie. However, once the resources and power she mobilizes exceed a certain range, many people may not necessarily be willing to listen to her.

Once chaos occurs, regardless of its scale, it will inevitably affect humanity's progress in fighting the end.

After all, with the end of the world possibly looming at any moment, human civilization is truly facing a life-or-death situation, racing against death every single second.

In such circumstances, behind every instance of chaos and negligence lies the potential loss of thousands of innocent lives.

Therefore, she must introduce a sufficiently powerful pillar to stabilize the destiny, so that all those with ulterior motives will not dare to act rashly.

Clearly, as the third leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, who has repeatedly fought against Welt White, and who commands more Herrschers than all the previous S-class Valkyries in Schicksal's history, the young man is undoubtedly the best candidate to take over Schicksal.

Furthermore, the other party was one of the developers of the Lunar Ring system, saving the lives of many low-ranking Valkyries, and naturally accumulated considerable prestige within the Valkyrie army.

With these identities, even if the young man doesn't interfere in the actual management of Destiny, simply endorsing her and Amber's actions is enough to greatly reduce the resistance to the implementation of various policies.

"Huh? Valkyrie of Destiny, do you know what you're saying!?"

Upon hearing this, Tesla was immediately stunned.

When she learned of Walter White's idiotic order, she felt that he was already outrageous enough.

But now, Rita has shown her with her actions what it means to have "no limit to how outrageous things can get."

Theresa and the others also showed some surprise. Peggy, in particular, went from watching the show with composure to being astonished and questioning her own existence. Her eyes looked at the boy with a sense of disbelief and disbelief.

If she remembered correctly, aside from issuing orders under a different identity, the other party had always been opposed to this matter, right?

But now...

Is she simply too naive, or has the world gone mad?
