What?! You want me to be the Herrscher of the End?!

Despite her complaints, Bai Mo did not intervene even though she had discovered the identities of the three people. She needed to figure out why Kiana and the others were out at this time.

Is there some secret operation going on? With this suspicion in mind, Bai Mo hid behind a tree trunk and quietly observed everything.

...On the other side, next to the bus.

The night was deep, and Kiana, Mei, and Bronya were standing furtively in the driver's seat of the bus.

Moreover, judging from the three of them's furtive and sneaky appearance, they were clearly there to do something shady.

The reason is this: as soon as everyone arrived at the guesthouse, Mei came up with a way to prevent everyone from going to the town of Kroka.

That means having Bronya burn out all the electronic components on the bus when it's late at night, something that Reloaded Bunny can do.

Undoubtedly, this method was immediately approved by both of them, as such an opportunity was rare.

Moreover, in their original plan, the three of them intended to break down the bus when it was almost at the town of Kroka, because if they wanted to protect everyone on the bus, they couldn't let the whole bus reach the town of Kroka.

So even though this method is somewhat terrible, and may even cause the group to get stuck on the road, it is still better than going directly to the town of Kroca and dying.

But now things are fine. The expected "one stop to the end" didn't happen. The travel company arranged a homestay for everyone to rest.

So this undoubtedly gave the three of them an opportunity. Although the methods were all pretty much the same, the environment here was good. At least the passengers on the train could call for help. Kiana and the others had no worries when they did this, so they felt at ease.

"Mei, we shouldn't get caught doing this, right?"

Kiana nudged Mei in front of her as she watched Bronya, who had already summoned the Heavy Bunny into physical form.

"Shh! Kiana, keep your voice down! We'll be in big trouble if we get caught right now!"

Looking around and finding no one, Mei crouched down and gestured to Kiana beside her.

"Don't worry, Bronya has already had Heavy Bunny scan the surrounding area with thermal imaging. There is no one else here except us."

Seeing that the two were still a little nervous, Bronya immediately reassured them. After all, she had done this kind of thing many times when she was an assassin, and she knew that she should eliminate suspicious targets in the surrounding area before taking action.

Moreover, the route to burn down the bus without anyone noticing was very simple; almost immediately after Bronya finished speaking, her hand movements stopped.

For a moment, Mei and Kiana, who were standing to the side, felt like they were being superfluous.

"This is a very simple matter. Don't worry, Bronya has already taken care of the engine as well. Now, the car can't be started again without repairs."

Bronya quantized the heavily armored bunny behind her again and patted the shoulders of the two people squatting on the ground with a very mature expression.

Little did they know, everything the three of them were doing was being filmed by Bai Mo from a distance using his camera.

Chapter 169 The Three Who Were Exposed

.......................

"Wow, I didn't expect that staying up late at night could actually bring some little surprises!"

"who!"

In the distance, Bronya, who had just wiped away the marks on herself and the others on the bus, immediately became alert upon hearing the sudden sound.

At the same time, Mei and Kiana, who were standing nearby, also frowned slightly.

This is not a good thing to explain... the two thought to themselves.

But since it's been discovered, we can only face it. At worst, we can just offer some compensation later.

Following the sound, they saw a figure they recognized very well appear ahead...

The other person's voice continued...

"Well, if you're troubled, Raiden Mei-san, I can pretend I didn't see anything."

"However, on the other hand... you must tell me your purpose in doing this."

"How about it? This is a very good deal, isn't it? Considering we're friends."

Having witnessed the entire process of the three committing the crime, Bai Mo leisurely walked out from behind the tree trunk with the camera in his hand.

At the same time, looking at Kiana and the others who had just wanted to leave, she said with a touch of humor.

Life needs some surprises, and it's nice to do something quirky like this every now and then.

Anyway, I'm March 7th now, not Bai Mo, so I can't afford to mess things up.

March 7th??

"Miss March 7th... what are you doing here...?"

As Bai Mo's figure slowly emerged, Kiana and Mei, upon recognizing who it was, immediately exclaimed in surprise.

Moreover, judging from the camera in the other party's hand, it was clear that their every move had been recorded...

This is troublesome. If the other party uploads the video to the internet... then St. Freya Academy might not be able to recruit a single student this year...

The thought of possibly being lectured by Theresa made both of them instinctively put on a bitter face.

Fortunately, there is still room for maneuver, since the other party could pretend not to have seen it, judging from their tone.

However, the corresponding thing is that we need to tell the other party the purpose of doing this... What should we do? Should we tell them?

Thinking this, Mei glanced at Kiana and Bronya beside her, seemingly wanting to hear their opinions.

"I'll listen to Mei."

Kiana said this.

"How did you manage to evade Bronya's detection methods?"

On the other hand, Bronya did not reply to Mei's words first. Instead, she asked the question that puzzled her the most.

She firmly believed that Heavy Bunny would never fail to detect, so if someone could evade Heavy Bunny's detection, then that person must have some special methods.

At the same time, Bronya was beginning to believe Bai Mo's earlier claim that he was a mercenary.

After all, she didn't believe an ordinary person could do that.

Moreover, as Bronya raised her question, Mei and Kiana, who were standing nearby, also turned their curious gazes toward Bai Mo.

Having fought side-by-side countless times, they understood the importance of this issue. Furthermore, this indirectly indicated that the other party was no ordinary person; their earlier claim of being a mercenary might not have been a lie...

"Is that the giant robot that suddenly appeared behind you? It's a nice little gadget, hmm~ very convenient."

Silently tossing the camera behind him, Bai Mo pretended to recall something before speaking.

"However, I can't tell you how to avoid detection. After all, this is my livelihood, and cute girls always need to have some secrets, don't they?"

"Especially for us mercenaries."

The method of evading detection cannot be revealed, since Bai Mo hid directly in the imaginary space, so if Bronya really asks her for an explanation, she truly has none.

However, Bai Mo's statement was not problematic. After all, if one were to assume the identity of a mercenary, then such skills, which are considered core competencies, should indeed not be revealed to others.

Bronya, who was standing to the side, narrowed her eyes after listening to Bai Mo's speech. Indeed, if she were in that situation, she would not tell him her best skills.

Just like you wouldn't tell a stranger about the origin and all the functions of Reloaded Bunny.

However, it doesn't matter. After all, Bronya didn't expect to find out anything anyway, and in the face of absolute power, even if someone can evade detection, it's all in vain.

"So, how about considering the conditions I just mentioned?"

Seeing that the three of them were somewhat silent, Bai Mo added with a smile, while the four of them maintained a very delicate distance, none of them intending to make a move.

Time passed by, but soon Mei and Kiana had clearly reached a conclusion and turned to look at Bai Mo.

Mei slowly stepped forward and spoke softly.

"We can tell you why we're doing this, but in return, you have to keep it a secret."

"No problem, as a mercenary, my mouth is very tight."

Seeing that Mei had relented, Bai Mo readily agreed.

After that, Mei and the other two explained things to Bai Mo.

From the time they were Valkyries of St. Freya Academy until the collapse of the town of Kroka, Mei, of course, altered much of the information.

Mei didn't mention anything about the so-called Honkai, the assassins, or the Honkai Beasts. She only mentioned that there were some supernatural events and terrorist attacks in the town of Kroka, and that they did this to prevent the safety of tourists visiting Kroka.

Moreover, the so-called Valkyries were modified by them into an organization for solving paranormal events in the folk.

Of course, the above information was obtained by Bronya from the dark web and mercenary organizations, so it can be described as very "official".

However, for Bai Mo, who was in the know, she could only force herself not to laugh at this news.

Keep making things up! You can keep making things up all you want.

Here, Bai Mo demonstrated strong professionalism, without even a hint of a smile on his face, instead pretending to understand.

Chapter 170 Preparing to Set Off

"I see. If that's really the case, then we can be considered colleagues in some sense."

"And I've also heard that the bounty offered in the town of Kroca is quite good. How about we travel together from here on out? That way, we can look out for each other when we get to Kroca."

Suppressing a laugh, Bai Mo listened to Mei's fabricated story and took the initiative to ask her questions.

After all, Kiana and the others should now believe that he is a mercenary, so he has a legitimate reason to go to Croca Town. In addition, he also has something on them, so if he reveals his true intentions at this time, they will definitely not be able to refuse.

Moreover, the three of them currently know nothing about the situation inside the town of Kroka, so having more people at this time is definitely more helpful. In addition, their mercenary identities are still there, even if they are fake, they are still useful to Kiana and the others.

After all, this operation by Destiny is definitely a secret investigation, and they will not intervene in an official capacity. So this is probably one of the reasons why Otto wanted St. Freya Academy to carry out this mission.

"No problem, but our original departure time is two hours later. In the meantime, Miss March 7, you can go and pack your luggage."

Mei, of course, had no problem. Now that March 7's mercenary status was confirmed, they had no reason to refuse. Moreover, rather than letting him set off alone, it was better to keep an eye on him under the guise of traveling together. That way, even if he had the video, there would be no time to leak it.

"Then let's proceed according to your original plan. I don't have any luggage here, so I can leave at any time."

"Okay, in that case, let's move the time forward a bit. We'll meet at this location again in an hour."

"Okay, see you then."
