Honkai Impact, I'm not a Ditto!

I had only notified Sikong in advance.

The meeting was held in a very dark room.

This is the meeting room of the Far East branch.

Unless there's something important, it generally won't be activated.

In the center of the council chamber was a long table, with senior members of the Far East branch seated on both sides. The head of the table was Dean Theresa.

Perhaps because he was too short, he worried that when he sat in the chair, only his head would be visible, and he wouldn't have any authority.

So Theresa sat on the table.

Below Theresa, to the left and right, are Shiku and Himeko Murata.

Continue.

They are the core members of various departments of the Far East Branch.

Everyone was staring at the table in the middle, because the table was made of a display screen that was broadcasting the details of the Manila collapse.

Just like the former Changkong City.

Manila is now completely cut off from communication.

The official statement from the Destiny Headquarters was that a Honkai outbreak had occurred, necessitating a lockdown.

At this moment, everyone is observing Manila via satellite.

Under a high-definition camera.

It was clearly observable that the city had become a living hell, with Honkai Beasts slaughtering ordinary people indiscriminately, and the number of suicide soldiers increasing as the concentration of Honkai energy rose.

People are dying in this city every moment.

Nearly one-sixth of the city's population died before they even realized what had happened.

Some people became suicide bombers.

Some were killed by assassins.

Some people were killed by Honkai Beasts.

Some people turned to ash because the Honkai energy concentration was too high.

The scene was absolutely horrific.

"Dean, five minutes ago, the Snow Lotus Squad of the Ocean Branch went to Manila. Should our Far East Branch send the Valkyrie Squad to support them?"

One of the key members inquired.

Theresa thought for a moment.

"Although the Valkyrie squad of the Ocean Branch took quite a while to arrive when the collapse occurred in Changkong City, they did provide us with support after all. Now that they are in trouble, we naturally need to help them."

The female member continued, "Dean, how many female warriors do we need to support?"

"Let Fu Hua lead four squads over there."

Theresa does not intend to send out the fifth squad.

After all, that's an elite squad from the Far East branch. Unless a collapse occurs on the mainland or the headquarters of Schicksal dispatches them, it's best to stay put if possible.

During this period, they have been suppressing collapse incidents everywhere.

The members of the fifth squad were still very tired.

Everyone needs rest.

Sikong said, "Ahem... Dean, I'd like to go to Manila to provide support this time."

"Huh?" Theresa looked at the dark-haired man not far away, not understanding what he was up to. "Are you going?"

Sikong nodded.

"Of course, although that place is not under the jurisdiction of the Far East Branch, but... I can't just sit idly by and do nothing about an event that affects millions of people. What if a Herrscher, a pseudo-Herrscher, or a powerful Honkai Beast were to emerge from there? I don't think the people in the Ocean Branch would be able to handle it."

"As an S-rank Fate Knight, I've been stationed at the Far East Branch precisely to deal with emergencies, haven't I?" Sikong slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "If even something like this isn't considered an emergency, then I don't think anything else qualifies as one."

"Sikong, I didn't expect you to still have such courage at a time like this. My impression of you has changed a little."

Himeko Murata looked at Shiku with surprise.

She had assumed that the other party would act as before, pretending to be dead in meetings no matter what happened, and would not say a word unless called on.

Sikong's sudden self-recommendation certainly made the red-haired queen look at him in a different light.

"So what kind of impression did I leave on you...?"

Sikong thought to himself, "This is what I'm complaining about."

Theresa thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense, but... never mind, since you want to go yourself, then go ahead. As an S-rank Destiny Knight, your trip will boost the morale of the Valkyries."

An S-rank Valkyrie is enough to boost morale.

Moreover, he is a rare S-class Destiny Knight.

The Valkyrie's morale will surely soar.

"Himeko, would you like to go? If Sikong goes, perhaps the Fifth Squad could..."

Theresa was interrupted by Himeko Murata before she could finish her sentence. Himeko said, "Although the Valkyries of the Fifth Squad are very dedicated to dealing with the Honkai incident, the team members have already worked hard enough recently."

"It would be better for everyone to take a good rest now..." Himeko Murata spread her hands, "so that if another Honkai event occurs in the Far East Branch, we won't be unable to send out our most elite squads in time."

"Hmm... what you said makes sense. Then let Sikong and Fu Hua lead five teams to Manila. You can choose the Valkyrie personnel yourselves."

Theresa agreed with Himeko Murata's statement.

Instead, they sent Fu Hua and Sikong together.

“However… Dean, I only said that the members of the Fifth Squad should rest, not that I should rest. Why don’t I go with Sikong on this mission?” Himeko Murata also stood up. “As an S-rank Destiny Knight, Sikong has experienced too few big scenes. It’s a good opportunity for me to teach him something.”

"Are you going?" Theresa frowned slightly. "Then what about our Far East branch..."

Himeko Murata waved her hand and said, "Aren't there still the headmaster and Fu Hua? With the two of you in charge of St. Freya Academy, that should be more than enough."

Chapter 266 Doing Our Best

Because of the collapse of Manila.

The Far East branch began an emergency mobilization.

Himeko Murata selected five teams of Valkyries from among the B-rank Valkyries, with three Valkyries per team, for a total of fifteen.

Including Captain Himeko Murata and Vice-Captain Shiku.

There were a total of seventeen combat personnel.

Although this incident was of great importance, since it was not a large-scale collapse that occurred in an area under the jurisdiction of the Far East Branch, the airship Hyperion was not deployed.

The group of Valkyries traveled to Manila aboard a combat airship.

Compared to the Hyperion.

The combat airships are much faster.

On the road ahead.

Sikong and Himeko Murata did not sit together; each led a small squad and sat on separate airships.

A Valkyrie squad typically consists of three to four members.

Three of them are permanent.

The fourth one is usually the captain who is assigned to the post.

This wasn't the first time Sikong had led the Valkyrie squad into battle.

So I do have some understanding of this knowledge.

Looking back, not long ago, when Sikong went on a mission, he was just an "ordinary" B-rank Destiny Knight, but now he has transformed into one of the strongest combat forces in the Destiny Organization.

Sikong sat in a chair, closing his eyes to rest.

The three Valkyries not far away were whispering to each other.

As the team leader who was parachuted in.

Sikong had only glanced at their information briefly, learning about their names, appearances, and abilities, before finishing.

He has no intention of communicating with the other party right now; his mind is preoccupied with what happened not long ago.

Knowing that Sikong was going to Manila, Raiden Mei was still a little worried. After all, this operation was different from ordinary Honkai events. In this kind of large-scale Honkai event, the possibility of powerful Honkai beasts appearing was not small.

but......

As a subordinate of the Destiny Headquarters.

They could not disobey orders.

This was originally the duty of the Valkyries and the Knights of Destiny.

Even though Raiden Mei was reluctant to part with him, she could only watch as Sikong boarded the combat airship and left.

"The Honkai is inevitable. All I can do is minimize the damage. Although I can't do what Cecilia did—single-handedly wipe out the Honkai energy in the entire Hyperion and heal hundreds of thousands of people—I can still use my power of creation to restore some people to normal..."

If Sikong remembers correctly.

In the Manila collapse.

The death toll reached over two million, and approximately three million people were infected to varying degrees.

Nearly ten million people are displaced around the city.

These are just ordinary people; the Valkyries also suffered heavy losses. In order to organize a rescue, Destiny dispatched more than forty Valkyrie squads, of which six squads from the Ocean Branch were almost completely wiped out.

The losses were enormous.

The losses are much greater than those in Changkong City.

This is also the result of the Destiny Organization's best efforts to save the city. Last time, when the Collapse Disaster struck Changkong City, Destiny was not so proactive, resulting in very few survivors in that city.

Some people still survived in Manila.

Moreover, these people are ordinary people.
