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

Conflict and cooperation, the relationships between people have always been incredibly complex.

Even though the conservatives just lost a Thunder Dragon Horse.

Without a doubt, Cocolia has made herself take the blame!

Glancing at the blonde woman whose expression remained unchanged, Shihen instantly guessed the reason.

When it comes to betraying their teammates, they're all the same.

That despicable usurper!

"I can't tell you too much about other things right now, but there's one thing I'd like to ask for your opinion on." Taking a deep breath, Cocolia seemed to have made up her mind before continuing, "Would your Seventh Squad be willing to be stationed in the Far East?"

Chapter Ninety-Three: Moments of Change

For those who truly held power, Christmas 2013 was an extraordinary day.

Walter Young, who led Anti-Entropy in its fight against Destiny for over fifty years and always served as its leader, was finally posthumously recognized as dead by the organization in this year.

Meanwhile, Anti-Entropy also welcomed its second leader – Walter White.

The overall situation and landscape of the human world seem to have entered a new phase as a result.

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

Inside the World Serpent Base, Gray Serpent was stunned as he looked at the announcement issued by Anti-Entropy regarding the change of leadership.

What the hell? What's wrong with this world?

He clearly didn't sleep at all, so why does it feel like several decades have passed?

How come the World Serpent, which planted so many spies and moles in Anti-Entropy, hasn't reacted at all?

Gray Snake felt that his brain seemed to be overloaded.

The electronic prosthetic eye flashed rapidly for more than ten seconds, but Gray Snake still couldn't make sense of everything.

That's so damn weird.

But that's okay, he can go directly to the person involved.

So Grey Snake chose to dial a secret channel.

The communication was quickly established, and the boy's voice rang out: "Grey Snake?"

“It’s me, White Dove,” Gray Serpent replied, choosing to get straight to the point. “Do you have anything to explain regarding the change of leadership in the Anti-Entropy Alliance?”

The fact that none of his informants at Anti-Entropy came back indicates that the boy accomplished this through other means.

But... isn't the other party a high-ranking member of their World Serpent?

"Oh, you mean this?" Shihen suddenly realized, his tone still relaxed. "I made a deal with Cocolia of Anti-Entropy. I'll help her take control of Anti-Entropy, and she'll support me becoming the leader."

"……that's all?"

The gray snake's prosthetic eye blinked frequently.

He didn't believe things could be that simple.

"if not?"

Shihen asked rhetorically.

"Cocolia has this ability?"

"The gray snake asked."

If Kokoria is so capable, why doesn't she become the leader herself?

"I helped her solve a small problem."

Shihen said tactfully.

After Raiden Ryoma dies, Cocolia must support him to become the leader of the alliance, and she must do so quickly.

Without his protection, even if Cocolia gets her hands on ME, she's doomed.

ME Corporation is indeed important for anti-entropy, but the truly crucial technologies have always been in the hands of Einstein and his colleague.

Only by placing him in the position of leader can Cocolia give the conservatives a satisfactory explanation.

Trading the death of Raiden Ryoma for the combat power of an S-class Valkyrie is a very worthwhile deal for Anti-Entropy.

At the same time, Cocolia can also share the hatred of the conservatives with Shihen.

This is why the other party is going to great lengths to push this matter forward.

If the living Thunder Dragon Horse were given to Cocolia, then Hen's ambition to become the leader of the alliance would probably be delayed for quite some time.

Cocolia isn't stupid; she's not going to develop secretly or reveal her true intentions to everyone directly.

Cocolia can keep dragging this out as long as their patience runs out.

"..." Upon hearing this explanation, Gray Serpent's prosthetic eye flickered again. "White Dove, your original plan was not like this."

You clearly agreed to use the identity of [Shihen] as the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, so why did you suddenly change your account?

Throughout the entire world of snakes, not many people know that Time Trace is also Walter White; at least, the undercover agents of Anti-Entropy don't know.

This is also a major reason why he did not receive the message.

Those people are still trying to figure out where Walter White came from.

“My plan remains unchanged,” Shihen said calmly, explaining, “Walter White is only the nominal leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance; he doesn’t have much real power.”

Going forward, I will still use my current identity as the leader, truly taking over the entire Anti-Entropy.

He is the true inheritor of Walter's spirit and will surely defeat all imposters.

Moreover, the so-called mastermind only needs to betray the enemy at the most crucial moment to create the most exciting atmosphere.

Walter White is a simple and straightforward villain.

Gray Snake: "..."

He had a feeling that the teenagers he recruited didn't seem like good people.

"Are you serious?"

"The gray snake asked in a hoarse voice."

Before this, he had always thought that the boy's anti-entropy replacement plan was a joke, just a whim of the other party.

But now... the boy seems to genuinely want to become the leader of anti-entropy, rather than just a name thief?

"..." Upon hearing this, Shihen fell silent for a few seconds. "Mr. Gray Serpent, have you always thought I was just messing around with Anti-Entropy?"

Can't there be more trust between people?

Oh, the gray snake isn't human. That's alright then.

"..." After a slight pause, Gray Serpent wisely skipped the topic, "If you need any help, feel free to use our manpower in Anti-Entropy."

From this day forward, the entire world of snakes will support your actions.

He had witnessed the boy's strategic prowess and believed that the boy's entropy-reversal replacement plan was feasible.

"Then thank you very much, Mr. Gray Snake."

Shihen's tone also carried a hint of a smile.

The World Serpent is still very useful in terms of the power of anti-entropy.

As for whether those people are completely loyal to him... they're just pawns, why should he care about their feelings?

"Work hard, and the snake will reward you accordingly."

He encouraged her, and then Gray Snake hung up the call.

Shi Hen: “…”

Mr. Gray Snake was the first to hang up on him.

He remembered this grudge.

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

Destiny headquarters, floating island.

Having also seen the announcement from Anti-Entropy, Otto couldn't help but laugh: "This Walter... he actually became the leader of Anti-Entropy?"

"Yes, if Anti-Entropy isn't joking, they did indeed choose this [Walter White] as their new leader."

Amber, standing to the side, spoke respectfully.

"Interesting, really interesting."

Otto's smile widened.

"Your Excellency, isn't this very disadvantageous for us?"

Seeing the man's smile, Amber asked, puzzled.

According to intelligence reports, a year ago, [Walter White] already possessed strength surpassing Durandal.

Now that a year has passed, the other side must have become even stronger.

Moreover, the other party has even joined Anti-Entropy and become its leader, which will undoubtedly give them a significant advantage.

This is clearly bad news for Destiny.

At least in terms of S-class combat power, Destiny has already begun to fall behind.

“Just a bunch of rabble.” Otto turned off the projection screen, seemingly unconcerned. “Do you really think this Walter is the leader of Anti-Entropy?”

"But didn't Anti-Entropy issue a statement about this?"

Amber was even more puzzled.

They're world-class organizations, surely Anti-Entropy can't contradict itself, can it?

"This Walter is just a puppet; the real power to reverse entropy belongs to someone else."

With a slight shake of his head, Otto could see through the truth at a glance.

"Huh? Who could possibly control such a powerful figure?"

Amber couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

"I guess he made a deal with someone in Anti-Entropy."

Otto said it in a nonchalant tone.

There is nothing new under the sun.

The so-called power struggle is nothing more than a series of compromises and exchanges of interests.

"Is this so..."

Amber was immediately relieved.

That is indeed more reasonable.

"Any news from Anti-Entropy?"

Otto picked up the glass of red wine next to him, swirled it, and asked.

“Yes.” Amber nodded slightly, but her expression seemed hesitant. “Anti-Entropy sent us a picture, asking us to change the photo on the wanted poster, saying that… that photo was too blurry and didn’t show the heroic temperament of their leader.”

“…Hahaha~” After a pause, Otto couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “It seems that this Walter is much more interesting than his predecessor.”

"Your Excellency, then we..."

Amber asked softly.

“Let’s do as he says.” Otto glanced at the photo of Walter’s new image with white hair and a white robe, and had to admit that it was indeed much better than the picture taken by Destiny. Even with a mask on, his extraordinary appearance was still evident, although it had nothing to do with heroism. “After all, this is the first request from the second leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance.”

This world is indeed starting to become more interesting.

As he sipped the fragrant, mellow red wine, Otto smiled.

In the training room on the other side of the floating island, Durandal, who had also received the announcement, simply glanced at it before turning off the projection screen and refocusing her attention on the training in front of her.

She had a premonition that the day she would clash with Walter again was not far off.
