The system handed me over to the state.

Bronya pinched her chin with her right hand; yes, she was seriously considering the possibility of this action.

But what she feared was the unknown trump card Otto held. He wasn't a warrior, but a researcher, a schemer. Who knew what was hidden in the Destiny headquarters? Could she kill Otto completely, rather than leaving him as a threat?

So after careful comparison, Bronya thought, why should I bother with all this nonsense? I should just enjoy my trip and not do anything weird.

Thinking of this, Bronya turned her head and said decisively, "Alright, let's not discuss this anymore. Whatever happens to the world is none of our business. We can just live our own lives."

Bronya simply gave up, stood up and said, "Alright, let's go back. Let's find a nice hotel nearby, stay in Changkong City for a few days, buy some local specialties unique to this world, and then prepare to go to the next place!"

"How about we go check out the night market?"

At this moment, Hei hope held up her phone and said, Bronya took the phone and looked at it, "Night market... In Changkong City, there are special events every night in the summer on the commercial street near the beach... That's possible, but I think there's a high probability that we'll run into those three cockroaches there."

"Besides, you don't like shopping while using invisibility devices, do you?"

Seele glanced at Bronya, then at Black Seele. She really couldn't decide. She felt there was no problem with interacting with those three girls, but Bronya clearly didn't think so.

In response, Hei hope simply shrugged and said, "There's no need, Bronya. Even if we really encounter an assassination attempt by some Valkyrie of Destiny or an attack by Honkai Beasts, it's very easy for us to handle. At worst, you can just summon a bunch of Titans and let them deal with it from the shadows. You can also conveniently shift the blame to Anti-Entropy. Isn't that a simple thing?"

Bronya crossed her arms, looking somewhat hesitant. Hei hope continued, "At worst, we can just slip away. As long as we get away from this city, they won't be able to find us."

“There are many solutions, but you’re hesitating, you’re stalling for time. Tell me, do you not want to leave this city at all? Do you still want to go back and contact them, right?”

Blackie pointed out Bronya's thoughts directly: this girl just didn't want to leave; she was definitely still thinking about Bronya, which was why she wanted to stay here.

Otherwise, if you really want to avoid these three people, aren't there plenty of ways?

Seele didn't interrupt because she didn't really know what had happened and was afraid that interrupting might cause some negative effects.

Bronya scratched her head. "You're right... I admit, I am still a little worried about her condition... And you should be able to sense the concentration of Honkai energy in this city."

Black Seele raised an eyebrow. Indeed, although it was very slight, the concentration of Honkai energy in the city had increased slightly in just one day. Although this increase was almost imperceptible, it was all too clear to Bronya, a Herrscher, Black Seele, and Seele.

"This city will eventually give birth to a Herrscher. Raiden Mei from Chiba Academy became a Herrscher, but she was defeated by Kiana. However, Honkai energy still remains lurking, waiting for a second outbreak."

"So... wanna play a big one with me tomorrow morning?"

Bronya smiled and Seele nodded without hesitation, "What do we need to do?"

Hei Xi sighed, "You always take things that aren't your business and make them your own. I really don't know if you like meddling or if you're some kind of saint!"

Bronya just smiled in response to Blackie's criticism. Finally, Blackie waved her hand and said, "Fine, fine! You win. Now tell me your plan."

Bronya knew, of course, that Blackie would agree, and her plan was simple: she would deploy Honkai energy absorption devices in multiple corners of the city. Once activated, the devices would absorb Honkai energy from the air. After collection, Bronya would take them to the outskirts, gather them together, and forcibly induce a Honkai Beast to be born. Then she would eliminate it, collect and store the remaining Honkai energy, and that would be the end of it.

A very simple and direct method. Even if the Honkai Beasts are not forcibly conceived, Bronya simply absorbs them all and sends them back to the research institute's energy department for processing. Such a high concentration of Honkai energy is their favorite energy source.

After finalizing their plan, the three headed into the city, changed back into their old clothes, and decided to find a hotel first, and then visit the night market.

Chapter 301: Did I cheat on myself?

The night market is a unique area in Changkong City during the summer. Only when summer arrives will it open at night and present a completely different night market scene.

After all, nobody likes to be outside in the dead of winter, right?

As a night market street that is different from other areas of the city, this place has more snacks, more restaurants, and even a small amusement park.

The three of them passed by here during the day, but they never expected that the once empty street would become like this. Warning signs were placed at the entrance of the wide road, directly prohibiting vehicles from entering. All kinds of food stalls were lined up on both sides of the wide street, and instead of light bulbs, the food stalls used lanterns of the same color and style.

"It's quite interesting. Instead of streetlights or light bulbs, they use lanterns with a unified style for lighting. Was this a coordinated effort?"

Bronya scanned the food stalls on both sides of the street. They were very clean. Whether it was the seats and chairs placed on the ground or the carts used to make food, everything was very clean. There were people cleaning up the trash on the ground at any time.

Compared to the barbecue stalls across China at night, the difference is enormous; it's miles ahead...

However, considering that one is likely an official event and the other is a food stall set up by an individual, it's somewhat understandable.

"There's a lot of delicious food, but why is it mostly barbecue?"

Hei hope noticed that most of the food stalls around her were selling barbecue, but Bronya forbade her to eat spicy food. What should she do?

You might say, "Huh? Can't you eat spiced or cumin-flavored food?"

But the flavors of five-spice and cumin are nowhere near as refreshing as the spiciness!

If you don't eat spicy food when you're having barbecue, aren't you just like a salted fish?

Thinking about this, Hei hope felt increasingly resentful of her body and regretted not being able to control her emotions and physical condition during that month. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been targeted by Bronya like this.

"Why does it feel like all the snacks around here are spicy? Are there no non-spicy snacks at all?"

Hei hope was currently in a state of resentment. Why... why weren't there any non-spicy snacks? Why were they all spicy... Ah! That!

Suddenly, Hei hope spotted a gleaming shop in the distance, seemingly radiating golden light. It wasn't a food stall, but... a fast food restaurant!

"You won't mind if I eat fast food, right?"

Hei hope turned to Bronya and asked. Bronya naturally had no objection, or rather, she dared not express any objection. She felt that it was already a small miracle that she could get Hei hope to stop eating spicy and cold food.

If they don't even let me eat fast food, I'm afraid I'll just tear myself apart with my bare hands, um, the kind of tearing myself apart in bed.

"You can eat, but you can't order anything spicy, and you can't drink iced beverages either. Also, eat less, because you don't know if the other person might be the Ulrich of this world."

Hei hope's expression suddenly became somewhat... eerie. "Now that you mention it, I suddenly don't want to eat anymore..."

Hei hope still hasn't forgotten that day when Lin Yuxin said she was taking them to experience life, so she took them to a fast food restaurant called Youlaishi. She felt a little scared when she saw Bronya and Lin Yuxin's smiles.

In the end, it turned out that these two guys were just trying to sabotage him!

She had just finished eating the hamburger and fried chicken from that shop, and the next second her stomach started to react in the most primal way. What was strange was that Seele, Bronya, and Lin Yuxin didn't have this reaction, but she did. At that time, Hei Xi didn't believe it and went to Ulais in other districts, and the result was exactly the same.

So now, whenever Hei hope thinks of this shop, she feels a chill down her spine.

"You just don't want me to eat, right?"

"No, it was just a sudden thought. Would you like to try some?"

At this moment, Bronya said to the pale pink glutinous rice balls in a small paper box in her hand, "These have brown sugar in them. Seele just picked them out for you."

Hei hope was stunned. When?

It was only then that she realized that Seele was no longer by their side. When... did she leave?

"She really wants to get closer to you. Maybe your past slight targeting of her still makes her a little worried. Even though you no longer do that, she still remembers it."

"So, let's make peace tonight?"

Hei hope crossed her arms and took a bite of the brown sugar glutinous rice ball that Bronya had sent to her. "I have no objection, it's fine with me."

"Then you should say thank you later! After all, it's not unreasonable to say that you two are the same person, so why are you getting angry with yourself?"

After a while, Seele found the two people in the night market carrying two paper bags. "Bronya, Black Seele! I've finally found you."

When Xi'er turned around, she found that the two figures had been swallowed up by the crowd around them, so it took her a while to find them. The first thing she did was to hand the small paper bag from the plastic bag to Hei Xi and say, "Hei Xi, this is something I specially found. It contains brown sugar pastries and some cumin-flavored barbecue."

Hei hope took the paper bag, glanced at Bronya, who blinked, indicating it was her turn. But Hei hope felt a little awkward... Finally, her expression became slightly... strange as she said, "Th...thank you."

Seele paused for a moment, realizing the change in Hei hope's attitude, and smiled, saying, "Yes! You're welcome! Sister Hei hope!"

Fortunately, they didn't run into Kiana's trio during their night market trip. After returning to the hotel, Black Seele surprisingly let Bronya take a bath by herself, while she and Seele went to take a bath.

This made Bronya a little depressed. She lay on the bed, her long gray hair cascading down her back, wearing a creamy white nightgown, her slender legs crossed.

It's hard not to feel the urge to ride it.

"So... I've brought the two of them together, made them get along, and then completely forgotten about me?"

"Tsk... I feel like I'm being cuckolded, just like Otto. No... she has to do something. She can't just sit here and wait to die."

Bronya realized the crisis. If things continued like this, she would go from being the mistress of the harem to just a member! Maybe after parallel worlds were created, these two would team up to collect their counterparts from each world and start a huge harem full of Bronyas.

Damn it! She wants to do that too! No way... wouldn't she be stealing Spain's wife from the corresponding world? Ugh... stealing her own wife, cheating on herself.

So she wasn't a fan of pure love stories! Was she a fan of Cuckoldry?

When Black Seele and Seele came out of the bathroom and came to the bedside, they saw Bronya with a blank look in her eyes and her brain seemingly overloaded.

Seeing the inexplicable blush on Bronya's face, Kuroshi couldn't help but mutter, "That pervert..."

Chapter 302: When will you change?

When Bronya went to sleep that night, the scene she had imagined—where Black Seele and Seele would reject her while sleeping—did not happen. On the contrary, the two of them surrounded her, each holding one of her arms. Although her physical movements were somewhat restricted, she enjoyed it.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself; this is the perfect life! Instantly, all the random thoughts I had while showering last night were left behind.

The next morning, Bronya didn't wake up normally. Instead, she was startled awake by a noisy shouting outside. Somewhat confused, she picked up her phone from the bedside table and saw that it was only 6 a.m.!

She understands that some people like to get up early, and some people get up early because of work or family, but is it really appropriate to be so noisy so early in the morning?

Bronya got up, rubbing her eyes as she walked to the balcony window of her hotel room. Suddenly, the glass in front of her shattered, almost reflexively creating a shield. At the same time, Bronya immediately reached out and grabbed the unknown object rushing in from the outside!

Coming to her senses, she looked at the large purple mosquito struggling wildly in her hand, or rather, trying to attack her. This seemed to be... a Honkai Beast, right? If she remembered correctly, this seemed to be a rush-class aerial Honkai Beast, which often appeared in groups.

Bronya frowned, then gently squeezed the Honkai Beast in her hand, turning it into primal Honkai energy. After absorbing it, she realized that this Honkai energy was not pure and was clearly not naturally generated; in other words, it was artificially created.

Because of the commotion caused by the Honkai Beasts, Black Seele and Seele, who were still fast asleep, woke up. Their eyes were still confused, not understanding what had happened.

Bronya stepped out of the window. The sky was still just beginning to lighten, but she could already clearly see the massive warship above the city.

Bronya recognized the familiar design at a glance: the Moon Throne, the floating warship originating from Anti-Entropy. Does its appearance here mean the story is about to officially begin?

Looking down, a large number of residents in Changkong City are being attacked by Honkai Beasts. So far, Bronya has only discovered the Mosquito-class creatures. The larger ones have not yet appeared, and the Honkai energy concentration in Changkong City has not yet risen to the level that would cause Honkai to occur and give birth to Herrschers.

"Seriously, I was trying to figure out a way to solve this problem once and for all last night, and now a Moon Throne has popped up. Why do I feel like the world is targeting me?"

Bronya complained in confusion, "Yesterday they kept making me run into the main characters, and today they brought up the Moon Throne. Are they planning to force me to go to the Oceania branch to retrieve the Gem of Desire?"

"This is... a warship?"

When Seele woke up, she looked at the huge floating warship above her head with a slightly surprised expression. How did she end up with a warship right in front of her after just waking up from a nap?

"Hmm, the Moon Throne. It seems the changes in this world have already begun. Hei hope, wake up and get ready to exercise!"

"Ugh... these ants are so annoying!"

Bronya's words were naturally overheard by Black Seele. She struggled to sit up in bed, a hint of irritation flashing in her crimson eyes. Bronya smiled and said, "Then it's arranged like this. Seele, you and Black Seele will work together to clear out the Honkai Beasts inside the city, save as many people as possible, and at the same time avoid Anti-Entropy and Schicksal's mechs and Valkyrie forces."

"I'll set up a beacon in the nearby area to attract all the Honkai Beasts."

"Alright, that's settled then. I promise I'll wipe out all these annoying things before you activate the beacon!"
