Humans are in chaos, despicable outsiders.

Fujin abruptly interrupted her train of thought...

Who is that?

"I have nothing to say. You only need to understand that God's will will surely be fulfilled."

A dangerous aura began to emanate from Fojin, revealing once again the strength and majesty of an inheritor and creator.

"...Alright, I agree. So, what about the compensation? Since your goddess is going to foster her apostle here, she should at least provide some lodging fees or something, right?"

"Look, she definitely needs a place to live, food and drink, and someone to play with her. All of these cost money. Would the great god make our St. Freya Academy pay out of our own pockets to support her apostle?"

Theresa seemed to realize that the Herrscher in front of her seemed to have great respect for the unknown god, and that the god did not seem to have any hostility towards Saint Freya. So she began to use the god's name to scheme against the Herrscher girl in front of her, trying to squeeze out as much as possible.

Even if the other side holds the power called "mindset"—after all, it's worth a gamble to turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.

"remuneration?"

The silver-haired girl tilted her head in confusion.

"If you are referring to equality in the exchange... the reward from the revered god will be given to you soon..."

"So it's just a worthless check?"

Theresa pouted in dissatisfaction. The thought of raising someone who was hundreds of times more troublesome than the Herrscher of Thunder gave her a headache.

"Idle checks are a boring trick that only mortals like to play, Miss Theresa—divine will will surely come to pass, and this is never some empty declaration."

"Alright... I'll just treat it as a surprise gift I'll receive in the future. Let's take this unconscious Herrscher lady back with us."

"To correct you, we are not Herrschers. That's the title for the agents of Honkai consciousness. You can call us Sequence Apostles. The only one who can barely be considered a Herrscher is Miss Wendy, who chased after them for a long time and is now preparing to return. And even then, it's just a title, not a real Herrscher."

"Furthermore, I have distorted the perceptions and network devices of everyone except you, so please don't be surprised if others have any misunderstandings about my sister—my sister, Wuni, will be taken back to St. Freya by you as a survivor of this Honkai, with verifiable identity documents, so there's no need for you to help forge them."

"As for whether you can borrow power from my sister, that depends on whether you are willing to pay a sufficient price—"

"Finally—you'd better think carefully about what you want to say before you talk to Miss Wendy. Although we apostles will not take the initiative to be hostile to civilization or humanity, that does not mean we will not take action."

"That arrogant entropy enforcer has already paid the price—"

"As the Fourth Apostle, Gao Tianzhifeng will only listen to half of what a deity says. You'd better think it through before you make contact."

After speaking, the silver-haired girl disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving them to face the next challenge.

"Ugh... there's also Wendy... there aren't any hostile Herrschers in this mission, but it feels even more troublesome than fighting a Herrscher."

Theresa scratched her head, clearly frustrated that the academy, which hadn't been flattened by any of the Honkai Beasts along the way.

"So, did you detect Wendy's energy reaction?"

On the bridge of the Hyperion, Theresa and the others nervously watched the intelligence officer, awaiting her reply.

“We only found traces of Miss Wendy, Lady Theresa. She moved too fast. Just now she moved from New Zealand to North America on the other side of the Pacific Ocean in less than ten minutes, and then two hours later she appeared in London, England and Paris, France, even hanging a white flag on the Eiffel Tower... and then an hour and a half later she left a cinema in Berlin and flew towards Asia—it seems... Miss Wendy is on a round-the-world trip?”

"A round-the-world trip...wouldn't that allow us to find out what she's doing in different places? Maybe we can start by investigating her current interests..."

"Hmm...we need to ask Simon Riley, the intelligence officer on the Nibelungen, about this. She was formerly an A-rank Valkyrie in the intelligence department of Schicksal Headquarters, and is now a senior intelligence officer in the Divine Authority Squad...her authority is much higher than our intelligence department's. She can freely access most of the non-classified intelligence from Europe."

"Our branch's intelligence department is mainly based in the Far East region; the rest of the area relies on intelligence support from headquarters,"

The intelligence officer in front of Theresa shrugged, indicating that he did not have sufficient authority and needed to contact the intelligence officer of the allied forces.

"Then contact them right away!"

The communication was quickly established, and a brown-haired woman appeared before Theresa and the others.

“Lady Theresa, I am aware of your needs, and it’s not exactly classified information—Miss Wendy’s constant wandering around has already caught the attention of most of the Destiny’s branches worldwide.”

"An intelligence agent from Destiny in the Americas reported that Miss Wendy visited the Empire State Building in New York and had a brief standoff with the Anti-Entropy conservative forces. She also had a brief exchange with Dr. Einstein of Anti-Entropy and left New York with several chocolate-flavored ice creams given to her by the doctor."

"In London, England, she stormed into the British Museum, which had been renovated a year prior, and spent most of the day there. Then, just as the local Valkyrie squad was about to surround her, she crashed through the museum's roof and flew towards Paris. According to a report from one of the A-rank Valkyries who was surrounding the museum at the time, the target apparently stole several ice creams from an ice cream stand next to the museum..."

“The British Museum’s curator, Catherine, fainted on the spot when she saw the hole in the ceiling, but fortunately, she was not in any danger after being taken to the hospital for examination.”

"In France, that troublemaker hoisted a white flag on the Eiffel Tower. Due to her speed, only Schicksal's local high-speed camera captured her image. The local French branch, besides directly clearing out the Honkai, is known for its slow pace. When they found Wendy, she had just come out of a movie theater, stuffed an ice cream cone into each of the Valkyries who hadn't even reacted yet, and then disappeared in front of them."

"According to the local Valkyries, they hope Wendy can switch to vanilla flavor next time... the chocolate flavor is a bit too sweet..."

Simon Riley's lips twitched noticeably when he read this.

"Then there's the latest intelligence from the West Asia branch's big dog. Their elite squad, Phosphorus Squad, encountered Wendy while carrying out a high-risk mission. Wendy shouted lines from a King of Fighters move that she somehow learned, saying, 'Come on, pray to God,' and then punched Phosphorus Squad's target in two."

"They said that there are basic rules to stealing monsters—it's enough to just drop from the sky and kill the monster with one punch once."

"Then this troublesome Herrscher turned around and ran to the S-rank Valkyrie dormitory at the Schicksal Mediterranean headquarters. While Rita and Durandal were out supporting us and hadn't returned yet, she shaved the tail of their Siamese cat, Stan, completely clean with a razor."

"Miss Rita and Lord Durandal are still busy coaxing that kitten that's about to run away from home."

Simon Riley, in his final remarks, stopped referring to the target everyone was searching for as Miss Wendy or Wendy, and instead directly called her the troublesome Herrscher, marveling at her ability to create drama.

"In short, Dean Theresa, if you don't come up with a way to deal with that unlucky kid soon, our Far East branch will soon be blacklisted by branches on all continents around the world because of this student who graduated from your class. We might even end up on the blacklist of the Anti-Entropy conservatives."

"Anyway, we just received a letter sent through a public channel—signed by Dr. Tesla, the Entropy Executor—that was full of insults."

Chapter 125 TTK!YZMTTK!

"Ah, the latest news: that troublesome Herrscher made a 90-degree turn halfway there and headed towards Africa. Is this guy trying to blow the Nile River away with a tornado?"

Simone Riley's lips twitched as she looked at the newly transmitted data in her hand.

"Members of the Destiny's African branch are already asking how to handle this..."

"What did you reply?"

Theresa looked at the Valkyrie from the intelligence department in front of her with some nervousness.

"What else can we do... I'll have them prepare more ice cream cones to coax this little devil away. We can't beat her anyway, so we might as well make her leave with a glance."

"Also, while that troublesome Herrscher is urgent, there's nothing we can do about it. None of us can directly capture a monster that normally moves at Mach 10—"

"So our current focus is still on the desire for the gem and Miss Bronya, the B-rank Valkyrie of the Far East Branch, who was kidnapped after being controlled."

“Wait, Miss Simon Riley,” Miss Himeko interrupted Simon.

"As for Wendy... didn't Bishop Otto at headquarters say anything?"

“Bishop Otto? No, when that bishop heard that the Herrscher of the flesh was speeding at Mach 10 and could go even faster, the bishop originally wanted to try to stop him.”

"Then, according to rumors—and let me make this clear, these are rumors, I'm not slandering the bishop—the bishop got beaten up like a panda when he went to negotiate with that troublemaker, with a mark on each eye; and then the bishop just stopped caring."

"It's said that he was muttering something like, 'Assassin position, immune to crowd control, and with Sprint, I'm gonna screw you...' But that doesn't quite fit the Archbishop's usual image, so just take it as a joke."

"In short, the bishop currently feels that since he can't defeat or capture this herrscher anyway, and it hasn't caused any real major damage, he might as well just leave it alone."

Simone Riley paused, grabbed a glass of water, took a sip to moisten her throat, and continued speaking.

"So our current focus is still on Miss Bronya and reclaiming the Gem of Desire—the good news is that Ninti, the A-rank Valkyrie of the Divine Authority Squad, has already infiltrated Cocolia's last warship."

"That old lady brought four warships, but in the end, only one warship was left. Moreover, according to Ningdi's report, the last warship wasn't in much better shape either. They crashed into the airport, and that ship will eventually have to be recycled and scrapped."

"According to Beninti's description, that ship was practically stripped down to just the handbrake, tsk tsk tsk."

"Ahem, back to the main topic. Ningdi followed them onto a transport plane... That plane is currently flying towards the newly rebuilt Changkong City. According to our deduction, their destination should be the headquarters building where ME Corporation is currently located. Note that the current new Changkong City is under the ambiguous jurisdiction of both Destiny and Anti-Entropy, and both sides have the ability to interfere."

"New Changkong City? What are they doing there with the gems? Is this guy trying to trigger another Honkai attack???"

Theresa's voice suddenly rose, and then she glanced at Mei beside her—

"The Hyperion... no, Simone Riley—is Nine Heavens here?"

"I'm right here, what's up?"

Jiuxiao peeked out from the corner of the screen.

"The Hyperion is too big a target. We need to transfer to the Nibelungen assault ship and head to the vicinity of ME Corporation in New Sky City."

"Understood. It just so happens that it underwent some modifications at headquarters last time, greatly improving the Nibelungen's stealth capabilities. The Nibelungen's hangar is ready to receive the Valkyrie squad from the Hyperion at any time."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Mei. Kiana, we'll head to the Nibelungen. Himeko, you're in charge of navigating the Hyperion back..."

The red-haired Valkyrie grabbed Theresa's body with one hand.

"Ha, you think you can just leave your students behind and sail back, Theresa? Don't even think about it. Lieutenant, hand over control. You guys take the Hyperion back to St. Freya Academy."

"Theresa, let's go to New Changkong City together."

"Himeko... Alright! Hyperion Valkyrie Squad 1, prepare to board and transfer to the Nibelungen. Target: New Sky City, rescue Bronya, and if necessary, retrieve the Gem of Desire."

...

--

On the Nibelungen, similar orders were being issued continuously.

"Assault ship begins to turn. Attention to receive Valkyrie Squad 1 from the Hyperion - all personnel. Target: New Long Sky City. Engines ready to be switched to afterburner."

Standing in the captain's seat, Jiu Xiao loudly issued orders.

"Simon, stay in touch with Ninti—we need to get intelligence from ME at any time."

"learn."

"Technical officer, activate the optical stealth and reconnaissance countermeasures modules before entering the new Changkong City, and retract all the internal turrets on the warship into the cabin."

"receive."

"Acting Captain Nine Heavens, Dean Theresa's Valkyrie squad has been successfully received,"

"Full speed ahead to New Changkong City—stop Cocolia, the enforcer of anti-entropy, before she can pull off any fancy tricks!"

"By the way, Simon—while continuing to monitor Wendy's movements, although she took the gem from herself, we cannot confirm whether she has any other intentions regarding it."

"Snow, Snow...you really know how to cause me trouble..."

Jiuxiao looked down at the busy crowd on the bridge and muttered to himself...

"Jiuxiao, we've arrived."
