Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

He said he admitted his mistake, but it was just lip service; his eyes didn't change.

This is neither in line with the rules nor with common sense.

"Perhaps our memories are influencing this world."

Ziyao guessed that it would be more appropriate to ask Einstein about this question.

It is a mere illusion created by the properties of the quantum sea, so it is normal for strange elements to be mixed in.

"What are you whispering about? Are you shy because you're about to meet all the heroes?"

Arriving at the conference room door, Alicia smiled and pushed it open.

"Don't be nervous, I'll introduce you to everyone properly."

The blinding white light expanded along the crack in the door.

People, scenery, everything vanished in the paleness.

The world is upside down, and the two laws are contradictory.

The polar day obscured the view, and it took half a minute for the light to fade.

When I came to my senses, what I saw when I opened my eyes was not a new scene, but the entrance to the Quantum Sea.

Everyone, including Einstein, returned safely.

"How boring. I wanted to see what would happen."

Mebius shrugged, annoyed by Kevin's sudden stop.

Something went wrong in one of the steps, most likely Alicia, which forced the show to be stopped.

“…”

Kevin didn't respond, but walked straight up to Ziyao, wanting to hear her choice.

All eyes turned to her once more; the girl's choice would determine how the situation would end.

Should you hand over the coveted gem that Kevin wants, or refuse and become his enemy?

Otto's eyes held a meaningful look; if it were him, he would definitely choose to hand it over.

He figured it out by observing the battle.

There's no way Kevin could be trapped here for long.

Rather than risking being killed by resisting, it's better for both sides to compromise.

My answer is no.

The girl's answer, almost as if in rhyme, paused for half a second at the end.

Even though she saw the disaster caused by the collapse, even though she saw that Yingjie represented humanity's hope.

Facing the World Serpent, the strongest warrior of the previous civilization, she still chose to rebel.

"Is it."

Kevin's eyes turned cold.

Otto couldn't hold back anymore. Had he gotten carried away in the fight and had to settle things here?

"This thing is very important to me."

The girl took out the Gem of Desire from the system space, and Rita was surprised by her ability to conjure things out of thin air.

How did you do it?

Something so important and full of Honkai energy can't just be kept in your pocket forever, right?

And there wasn't a single trace of it leaking out, as if she didn't even have it.

The cores of the Herrschers are protected by multiple layers of sealing, and only the best containers can store them, yet Ziyao conjured them up in an instant.

"Bronya, can you solve Welt's labyrinth?"

Since escaping the maze requires gems, simply opening the maze directly would also have the same effect.

The weakened Walter relinquished his powers, but Bronya could take over.

"Success rate is 80%, no problem."

Bronya nodded.

"Thank you."

Walter respected Ziyao's choice, compromised, and told Bronya how to solve the problem.

If it weren't for Ziyao, all of them would probably have perished here.

Reaching the edge of the space and looking down at the boundless azure expanse, Ziyao turned back and said, "Kevin, I am not your enemy."

Well, at least not now.

Brushing aside the stray hairs by her ears, the girl's figure appeared aloof and frail.

Not only Kevin, but even Otto was a little at a loss for words when he heard this.

As Ziyao said, she had no intention of fighting or being hostile; it wasn't a riddle to conceal information, but the absolute truth.

In other words, if they had spoken properly from the beginning, the girl would probably have given him the gem directly.

Is this all a misunderstanding?

For the first time in many years, Kevin felt a feeling called embarrassment.

Gray Snake felt ashamed; he seemed to sense Kevin Meow's gaze coming from nearby.

It was his paranoia that ignited all these conflicts.

As they spoke, the space shook violently.

With the aid of her powers, Bronya successfully deconstructed the entire labyrinth.

Even the sturdiest lock can be opened with the right key.

As the void appeared, the door to the outside world opened.

Back to reality, everyone outside had been waiting for a long time.

Just as she stepped outside, a paramecium suddenly pounced into Ziyao's arms.

As if to confirm it, he felt her body temperature and scent, and hugged her tightly, worried that she would leave again.

"Idiot Kiana, you're so clingy."

Bronya retorted, having activated her Herrscher form.

"Rita, Bishop, are you alright?"

"Thanks to Miss Zi, we are all fine."

Rita nodded and thanked Durandal in return, thanking her for staying outside and guarding their anchor point.

"Yang, you seem to have quite a few problems."

Ziyao spoke first.

Why did I give up in the first place instead of joining forces?

According to Walter, if everyone had joined forces to fight Kevin from the moment they entered the Quantum Sea, it certainly wouldn't have been a draw.

"Hmm... You're already at your limit. Otto's performance is too poor, and the new Herrscher of Reason is still inexperienced."

Bronya glanced at the person who mentioned her.

"Moreover, I also have my own selfish motives."

Turning his head, he met the girl's gaze.

[Ding! Affection +3, currently at 72]

[Ding! You have obtained 298 crystals!]

Volume 1: Chapter 112 The Road Ahead (Part 1)

"Miss Zi, why not reconsider?"

Otto and Kevin made a pact, and after it ended, he approached Ziyao, who was chatting with Durandal.

It's no surprise that Otto would try to win him over.

Ziyao didn't want to be anyone's pawn, especially the old fox's.

Living in constant fear of being schemed against is exhausting.

"Destiny welcomes you at any time, as long as you are willing."

Otto promised that if Ziyao joined Destiny, she would have access to Destiny's vast resources, which would be far better than the stingy and restrictive Anti-Entropy.

The influence of the Mandate of Heaven was so great that it could dominate almost the entire continent of Europe, and its resources were astonishingly abundant.

Otto believed that Ziyao was destined for great things, and therefore, she must need strong political and material support.

"Thank you for your kindness, Bishop, but I am by nature undisciplined and will decline the position of attendant."

The girl shook her head and said that Durandal also hoped she could join Destiny so that the two of them could spar.

"By the way, Bishop Otto, have you seen Fu Hua recently?"

After the incident involving the arrival of Kong Lu, a former member of the Destiny Guard, Fu Hua lost all communication and could not be found at all.

"Perhaps you'll understand once you join Destiny."

Otto chuckled, maintaining a gentlemanly distance from Ziyao. Since she was unwilling, he wouldn't force her.

If you really want them, there are plenty of ways to recruit them.

But the people you get in this way are incomplete and won't serve you wholeheartedly.

"Miss Zi, please allow Rita to treat you well next time we meet, as a token of my gratitude."

"Alright, alright, if you don't leave, Haiyuan City will close again."

Tesla urged, because she disliked Otto because of Edison.
