"That's not the problem."

Shaking his head, Einstein said calmly: "Dr. Tesla, please take a seat first."

"Chicken Coop Hair... What on earth do you want to say?"

That being said, Tesla still got a chair.

"relation."

Without waiting for Einstein to speak, Walter said in a deep voice, "We can indeed go and snatch him away now, but this also means that our relationship with Otto will be completely severed."

"Besides, the opponent is Otto after all. I don't think he has no backup plan."

To be honest, if it was just Otto, he would probably have taken action, but the Otto he was facing was the "Otto" who knew the future.

Therefore, after determining the location of the hostages, he was no longer in a hurry.

"Backhand?"

Hearing Walter say this, Tesla couldn't help but get excited again.

"No matter what we do, it's better for us to grab the person first. Otherwise, do we have to obey his orders all the time?"

"But what if he planted a bomb on the hostage?"

Seeing that Walter could not convince Tesla, Einstein simply used the simplest reason to convince him.

"Uh……"

When Tesla heard what Einstein said, he immediately became speechless.

"Well, it's not impossible."

If it were someone else, she would have hesitated a little, but since it was Otto, she was never afraid to assume the worst of him.

therefore--

"But if we had prepared earlier, we would have been able to block the signal and disarm the bombs on them."

"Dr. Tesla..."

Looking at Tesla's "clear" eyes, Einstein shook his head helplessly and said, "This is just the simplest possibility. There are many other ways to ensure that we can only take away the body."

"Ah this..."

After hearing what Einstein said, Tesla fell silent.

To be honest, she is certainly not stupid, and she is definitely a genius among geniuses in scientific research.

But when it comes to conspiracies and intrigues, she can only be fooled around.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been humiliated so often by Einstein.

"Anyway, let's keep the status quo for now."

Seeing that Tesla was silent, Walter said as if to make the final decision: "It is not wise to make enemies with Otto now."

"but--"

But he immediately changed the subject and said, "We can tell this news to that side and see what choice they will make."

"Aren't you afraid it's a trap?"

Frowning slightly, Einstein reminded.

"Different."

Shaking his head, Walter's eyes gleamed with wisdom as he said, "Otto won't touch them. After all, that's the key to defeating Honkai."

"And I heard that Kiana has made great progress, which should be enough to satisfy Otto."

Of course, he didn't want Kiana and the others to take the risk while he reaps the benefits.

After all, he is a kind-hearted person and would not do such a thing that harms others and benefits himself.

But he also felt that things were not going well if he continued to be led by Otto, and someone needed to step forward to break the deadlock.

Therefore, this step was his test of Otto.

"Is that so?"

Understanding Walter's meaning, Einstein nodded and said, "I understand. I'll send a message to Theresa right away."

However, the two of them understood each other, but Tesla, who was present, became more and more confused.

"What are you two talking about?"

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Tesla looked dissatisfied.

"Ugh……"

Seeing this, Einstein could only sigh helplessly and explain: "If Otto didn't react and just let them get her out, it means that he recognizes Kiana's growth and that he truly wants to... fight the Honkai?"

When she said the last four words, her expression became a little subtle, and she even used a question mark.

Of course, judging from the results, Otto did not kill their close friends, he just froze them.

But when she thought about how Walter had been ambushed by Otto many times despite having a huge advantage, she could never believe that Otto really wanted to defeat Honkai.

To be honest, if she didn't also know that Otto knew the "future", she would never have said these four words.

Now she only hoped that the "future" that Otto saw was really the only way to defeat the Honkai.

Otherwise, all the suffering Walter endured would have been in vain.

"Is that so?"

Tesla was not really stupid, he just needed Einstein to give him a start, and she immediately understood.

After figuring it out, she crossed her arms, nodded, and said, "Then this kind of thing can only be done over there."

"But I want to say one more thing, the people under the church are all from our side."

With a nostalgic and complicated expression, she whispered: "Joyce, Edison, Rihanna, and——"

At the end, she looked at Walter and said, "Your father."

"..."

After a long silence, Walter pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said in a deep voice: "Well, I understand."

And just after he spoke, Einstein also spoke.

"I have already sent the message. It depends on the reaction from the other side."

Seeing that Walter looked normal, Einstein also relaxed.

"If you're alright, I'll leave first. I still have an experiment to do."

Although Walter didn't say anything, Tesla couldn't stand the current low pressure. After making up a random excuse, she fled the meeting room in a slightly embarrassed manner.

"Yes, me too."

Einstein stood up and was very calm, as if nothing had happened, and left with the empty coffee cup.

And after her footsteps faded away——

"Father?"

Leaning back in his chair, Walter showed a rather subtle expression.

But to be honest, compared to his father, he actually cared more about the man who gave him the power of the Ruler of Reason - Walter Joyce.

But no matter what——

"I hope the day we meet again won't be far away."

He put away his complicated expression and returned to his normal appearance.

At least for now, the anti-entropy still requires a calm him.

……

canteen.

"Oh~"

Luo Hong said with a slightly cheerful tone, "You mean, in exchange, Walter asked us to rescue the people under the church?"

“It’s not an exchange.”

Theresa, who was sitting opposite Luo Hong, shook her head and said seriously, "They just told us the information, but didn't tell us what to do."

"Even if we keep it as it is, I don't think they'll say anything."

"But if we don't do anything, Walter might not contact Fu Xuan in the future, right?"

Luo Hong's eyes turned and he smiled: "If I'm not mistaken, it was Einstein who contacted you, right?"

"Uh... um."

Theresa was about to say something for Anti-Entropy, but after a moment's pause, she nodded and said, "She contacted me."

During the Anti-Entropy invasion of St. Freya Academy, it seemed that she had not met him, but after she returned to the dean's office, she found Einstein's contact information on the desk.

"It looks like her handwriting."

Luo Hong chuckled and said, "After all, Lao Yang is a kind man. He wouldn't do something so ambiguous."

Admittedly, Einstein said nothing, but sometimes, not saying anything is also a kind of saying.

Of course, based on his understanding of Anti-Entropy, even if they really did nothing, Walter would still contact Fu Xuan after crossing, but this would make them seem unkind.

therefore--

"Go and pick up the anti-entropy people."

Without waiting for Theresa to speak, he continued, "It's time for Otto to test Kiana's growth."

"Otherwise, during this period when the Herrscher is advancing, he is likely to take some extreme actions."

If Anna's incident hadn't happened, "Otto" should have been able to give them six months.

But now, "Otto" is expected to make more preparations just in case.

So in order to reassure the opponent, he should also let "Otto" see Kiana's growth.

"oh, I understand now."

Hearing Luo Hong say this, Theresa finally relaxed.

"how?"

Looking at Theresa with some amusement, Luo Hong said: "Do you think I will conflict with Anti-Entropy?"

"Is my temper really that bad?"

"That's not true."

Shaking her head, Theresa said seriously, "You have a temper, of course. At least so far, I haven't seen you angry."

"But Anti-Entropy is using the safety of Kiana and the others to test Grandpa's reaction. I'm afraid you'll be angry about this."

She naturally knew how much Luo Hong liked them, so she was afraid that Ni Entropy's move would touch Luo Hong's weak spot.

"Ah!"

Hearing Theresa say this, Luo Hong's smile became even brighter.

"It's good that you thought of that."

First, he praised Theresa, then he said, "But you're wrong about one thing."

"If this matter really threatens the safety of Kiana and the others, Anti-Entropy won't take the gamble. After all, they are also counting on Kiana and the others to defeat Honkai."

"Not to mention, everyone except Cocolia is kindhearted. Einstein is just a little cunning, but he wouldn't sacrifice the lives of innocent people."

"So they dared to tell you this, they must be absolutely sure that Otto wouldn't attack Kiana and the others."

"Is that so?"

Hearing Luo Hong's analysis, Theresa couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful look, as if she needed to think.

"They have it all planned out."

"Anyway——"

Seeing Theresa's adorable appearance, Luo Hong couldn't help but reveal a doting smile and said, "As long as you don't really want to hurt Kiana and the others, I'm quite tolerant."
