Nicholas decisively stepped back, pointing her spear at Luo Chen. She didn't even know when this person had appeared, but her intuition told her that this guy was extremely dangerous.
Siegfried knocked away a Honkai Beast, one of which was pointed at Luo Chen's head with a pistol.
"Who are you, and when did you arrive?"
"That's not important. You should worry about yourself first."
Luo Chen lowered his voice and, seeing the Honkai Beasts around him trembling, knew that he was no longer needed here. He sheathed his sword and faced Siegfried.
"what are you saying?"
Siegfried didn't understand Luo Chen's words. The next second, he sensed a huge Honkai energy reaction, looked up at the sky, and his face was full of disbelief.
"This is...a human?"
The originally white sky was shrouded in the black light emanating from the Star of Eden, and Walter, like a god, hung high in the sky, exuding an aura of dominance against the backdrop of snowflakes.
"Kneel down."
With the gravitational field released, Siegfried felt his body become much heavier, but he still managed to stand on the ground, while Nicholas and Salome behind him could only rely on their weapons to hold on.
Luo Chen remained calm and composed. The gravity field wasn't too serious for him. If his Honkai energy hadn't been restricted, he would have liked to try using the power of the Herrscher of Rock to counter Welt.
"Disappear."
Welt fired a beam of black light from the Star of Eden in his hand, annihilating all the Honkai Beasts around him. He landed in front of the four, straightened his clothes slightly, and clapped his hands to signal Einstein and Tesla to follow in their mechs.
'This guy actually wiped out over a hundred Honkai Beasts in an instant!'
Siegfried was shocked by the strength Welt displayed, followed by apprehension. These two who had suddenly appeared did not seem easy to deal with, especially the masked man beside him. The strike he had used to slay the Honkai Beast had not employed Honkai energy; it was entirely based on his own power.
'That symbol on the belt... he's from Anti-Entropy!'
Siegfried's expression darkened, and he pointed his two Heavenly Flames at Luo Chen and Walter respectively, saying in an extremely serious tone, "People of Anti-Entropy, tell me your purpose. And you, Mr. Masked Man."
Walter looked at the mask on Luo Chen's face. The masked man seemed very relaxed when Walter released the gravity field, which made Walter very concerned. This guy was probably not simple.
"Everyone of Destiny, I am the leader of the anti-entropy alliance, Walter Young."
As soon as Walter introduced himself, Nicholas and Salome became restless and immediately stood up, keeping a watchful eye on him.
"My friends, what is happening inside the Tower of Babel now concerns the fate of this world."
"For the sake of this world, please put aside past grievances, accept our help, and work together to resolve this issue."
"My impression of Anti-Entropy isn't too bad. However, due to my duty, I cannot accept your help. Please leave immediately."
A bullet grazed Walter's face, and Siegfried stared at Walter with a grim expression.
"Otherwise, even if it means we both perish, I will not let you pass."
"To perish together? Isn't the Kaslana family's duty to protect others?"
Walter was puzzled by this and immediately spoke up to refute Siegfried.
"If you lose your life for a moment of anger, how can you protect your family, friends, and the world?"
Siegfried was startled, and many faces appeared before his eyes, especially those of Cecilia and Kiana, which were particularly clear.
"Believe in my sincerity, I do not wish to be your enemy. I will station troops here, and if you are still not at ease, you can make any demands."
Siegfried wasn't one to rigidly adhere to rules, so since Walter had said so, he naturally agreed. After all, in his view, a man with such resolute eyes wouldn't lie.
"So, sir, could you please tell us the purpose of your visit here?"
Siegfried and Walter tied up Luo Chen from the front and back. Both of them were wary of his strength. They naturally had to be careful of such an unknown guy.
"I'm just a traveler. I came here to find a few people."
"Looking for someone? Are you aware that this is the territory of Destiny?"
“I know, and I also know that Destiny is conducting some shady experiments here.”
Luo Chen's voice was hoarse and low, making the others feel uncomfortable. Siegfried's face darkened considerably upon hearing Luo Chen's words. He originally wanted to refute Luo Chen, but when he thought of an old friend who had disappeared without a trace since arriving at the Babylon Laboratory, he swallowed his words.
"I'm here to find my sisters. They were captured by your Destiny people a few months ago and used as test subjects."
Luo Chen said coldly, still clinging to a sliver of hope that Bella and the others were not dead.
"Captured and used as a test subject?!"
Siegfried was stunned. He knew that there were many dirty things inside Destiny and he sympathized with Luo Chen, but Destiny had a cooperative relationship with Anti-Entropy. Welt could go in without any problem, but he couldn't.
“Sir, I sympathize with your situation, but I’m sorry I can’t let you in.”
"You don't think I'm consulting with you, do you?"
Without anyone noticing, Luo Chen teleported to Siegfried's side, held a knife to his neck, and his voice grew increasingly cold. If Siegfried weren't his father-in-law, he would have at least given him a good beating.
Seeing this, Nicholas tried to rush forward, but Siegfried quickly stopped her. Siegfried had no idea how Luo Chen had appeared beside him; he hadn't even had time to draw his Heavenly Fire.
The Star of Eden in Walter's hand lit up. Luo Chen's teleportation surprised him; Walter had never seen such an ability before.
"As you can see, if I wanted to, Mr. Siegfried would be a corpse by now."
Luo Chen put down his knife and teleported back. Siegfried was sweating profusely. Luo Chen was right. If he had the urge, he could have killed him.
"Of course, I also know that Mr. Siegfried won't just let me in like that. Don't you want to fight the Honkai? I can provide help."
Siegfried seriously considered the veracity of this statement, while Walter wondered whether he should recruit Luo Chen, since he had just said he was a traveler and seemed unfamiliar with Schicksal.
"You can refuse, and then I will teleport directly into the Tower of Babel. But I can't guarantee what I'll do. I might detonate something if I'm unhappy, like the Honkai reactor."
Luo Chen shrugged, gave a deliberate laugh, and continued in a low voice, "Whether he is a reliable ally or a ticking time bomb, I'm sure Mr. Siegfried will make the right choice, won't he?"
Discussing things slowly would take too much time. Luo Chen felt that deterrence was a faster approach. Although the consequence might be being monitored at any time, that didn't matter!
"I feel like I have no choice."
Siegfried smiled wryly. Although Luo Chen's words sounded forceful, his intuition told him that the person in front of him could be trusted. And even if he refused, could he really stop him?
"Then may I ask what your name is?"
"My name? Just call me Tarantula."
Chapter 220 Word Game
"His Excellency the Bishop has agreed to cooperate with you all."
Inside the Tower of Babylon, Siegfried and Theresa stood together, announcing the success of their collaboration to Walter and Lochte, and also stating the conditions proposed by Otto.
“Mr. Tarantula, you know Bishop Otto.”
In his reply, Otto specifically told Siegfried Luo Chen that he was an old friend of his and that he could completely trust him, and asked Siegfried to send his regards to him on his behalf.
"That guy is still as weird and sarcastic as ever."
Luo Chen listened to Siegfried repeat Otto's sarcastic greeting, but he had to admit that Otto's assist saved him a lot of trouble; otherwise, he would have had to figure out how to fool Siegfried and the others.
Theresa felt a little uncomfortable listening to Luo Chen's words, but she couldn't deny that Otto's greetings gave her goosebumps. In her memory, there were very few people who would make her grandfather speak like that.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Tarantula would know Otto. It seems that they have a good relationship."
Walter was a little surprised. He had initially thought Luo Chen was just an insignificant person. Now it seemed that this was clearly an outside helper that Otto had invited!
"We know each other, but we can't say we have a good relationship."
Luo Chen shrugged, his tone full of disdain for Otto. Seeing Theresa staring at him, he moved closer to her.
"Ms. Theresa, is there something on my face?"
"Isn't there any?"
Theresa pointed at the mask on Luo Chen's face. Luo Chen awkwardly scratched his face, but realized he could only scratch the mask, so he gave up.
"Mr. Tarantula, why do you always wear a mask?"
"Will wearing a mask affect my ability to resolve the Honkai?"
"No."
"That's okay."
"OK then."
Theresa had originally wanted to see Luo Chen's face beneath the mask, but Luo Chen naturally wouldn't let her. If Theresa were to actually see his appearance, it would be disastrous; the subsequent plot might be in trouble.
"You want to investigate? Then hurry up and do it."
Seeing that the topic was gradually drifting away, Luo Chen coughed softly, reminding everyone that it was time to get down to business.
"Yes, it's time to start the investigation."
Einstein nodded, his gaze turning to Siegfried and Theresa.
"Let's begin with the Honkai Reactor. I wonder if you two are aware that beneath the Honkai Reactor lies a prison where experimental subjects are held."
Luo Chen's body visibly trembled. He glanced at the internal map on the screen, then turned and left.
"I'll go first, those of you who are coming, follow me."
He teleported away from where he was, and everyone present knew what Luo Chen was going to do, except for Theresa, who was completely bewildered.
"Siegfried, what is he going to do?"
Siegfried told Theresa about Luo Chen's purpose, and Theresa suddenly had a bad feeling.
“The person we’re looking for might be among those experimental subjects, Ms. Theresa, please lead us there.”
