"And why do you think... scientists are really bad at fighting...?"
Dr. Green sighed, seemingly about to punch someone. The Alliance Leader on this ship gave Dr. Iserly boundless courage to confront Cocolia.
“Leave it to me, Dr. Iserly.” A steady male voice rang out.
The doctor breathed a sigh of relief and stepped aside; a tall, burly man emerged from the other corner of the cabin.
Upon seeing the brown-haired middle-aged man before her and the Star of Eden clutched in his hand, Cocolia felt her blood freeze...
"Lord Alliance Leader..."
With difficulty, the woman uttered the identity of the man in front of her.
“Cocolia, you should know why I’m here—was the deal with the Gray Serpent satisfactory?”
The man sighed, and his last words made Cocolia give up any remaining hope.
"Wait! Alliance Leader Walter! If—"
"If you are sentenced to imprisonment and your crimes are made public—the radicals of anti-entropy will go into chaos, right?"
Another figure appeared behind Cocolia.
"It's you? I remember you—the intelligence officer of the Divine Authority Squad!"
"Ah...you can call me by my other identity, Cocolia the Enforcer—"
"The Entropy Reversal Executor - codename 'The Fool'".
Under Cocolia's incredulous expression, the Valkyrie's face and figure gradually began to change, transforming into a mature middle-aged woman with blonde hair and purple eyes, as if she herself had emerged from the same embryo.
"You are under arrest—Former Executor Cocolia, on charges of treason, betraying the organization, framing colleagues, and causing serious economic and personnel losses to the organization—"
Iselin glanced at the arrest warrant and rattled off all the crimes the woman in front of her had committed.
"As for the radicals... you don't need to worry about them, I will take care of them for you."
Simone Riley gave a polite smile.
Chapter 131 The world has long suffered from unruly children.
"What a troublesome request... and it's hard to refuse..."
The Fool, or rather Simon Riley, leaned against the cabin, rubbing his temples as if he had a headache.
"Taking care of those kids is indeed a headache."
Dr. Iserly shrugged.
Let's rewind a few minutes.
"Your Excellency Simon, I have a request..."
Before Cocolia was taken away, the blonde Russian woman looked at Simone Riley, who stood expressionless next to Walteryan.
"The orphanage and your adopted daughters, right? I understand."
The Fool nodded, looking at the woman and recalling his past discussions with Snow—
"...We should look at Cocolia and everything that happened with a dialectical approach—everything has two sides."
Snow, swaying as he held a glass of grape juice, leaned against the windowsill and brought up the topic.
"Hey, what are your thoughts, Chief?"
"She triggered the Third Honkai Impact, causing the deaths of millions of residents in the old Changkong City and resulting in devastating consequences. However, from another perspective, the premature triggering of the Third Honkai Impact meant that the awakening of the Third Herrscher was not yet complete... The actual damage caused by the Herrscher herself can be said to be almost zero."
"Compared to the descriptions of the destructive power of the previous era's civilization to the fully-formed Herrschers in the archaeological excavations of Destiny, and the damage caused by the second Herrscher in this era—the damage caused by the third Herrscher can even be said to be negligible."
"Of course, this was not her original intention, but as we said at the beginning, things always have two sides, a good side and a bad side. The Third Honkai Impact was an unavoidable event. The harm was reduced in this unintentional way, and even a Herrscher joined the human camp. Should we say that we are lucky or unlucky?"
Snow, sitting on the windowsill, smiled and looked at Simon.
"So, boss, what kind of person do you think Cocolia is?"
"Herself? A comical and contradictory figure, wavering between power and family—she can sacrifice family for power, yet she can't bring herself to completely sacrifice and sever ties. She's not like my father—"
"If anyone truly stands in his way, refusing to yield an inch, he will not hesitate to draw his gun and sword, piercing their brains and hearts, regardless of their identity or the bonds they have formed with him—"
"She can't do it; she wants to have her cake and eat it too, but is that even possible?"
"Power and ambition... Ancient emperors and generals have already shown us that obtaining both is as difficult as ascending to heaven—moreover, what ambitions does she have to ascend to heaven?"
"She's just a trapped beast imprisoned by family ties and power. Only when she truly loses one of them will she understand."
"Oh, Captain, what do you think she'll lose?"
"Of course, it's the right—"
The blonde girl spoke with certainty.
"If you have no ambition to reach the heavens, nor have you ever planned any grand undertakings, then why do you cling to power and refuse to let go?"
"Do these people...do they wield power...or have they become puppets of power? —Miss 'The Fool'?"
Simone Riley shuddered involuntarily as she recalled the scene where she was called out at the end.
"What an incredible boss..."
Simone Riley shook her head and began to worry again about the problem children left behind by Cocolia.
"Ah, Anne Mar, Anti-Entropy's number one problem child... just thinking about it gives me a headache... and then there are those two troublemakers, Rosalia and Lilia..."
Simone Riley glanced at Iserline, who was remotely controlling some experiment in the lab, and had a bold idea—
"Doctor—"
"Hey! Speak quickly if you have something to say, don't be so mushy!"
Dr. Green Algae's hand trembled, and a muffled explosion echoed from the remotely controlled Anti-Entropy private laboratory.
"That's the one..."
"Which one and which one?"
Iselin looked completely bewildered; she seemed oblivious to what was going on.
"That child—Annie—is now in your care! I just told her, in Cocolia's name, that she'll be learning from you from now on."
"What the hell! That child is only a few years old, what kind of education does she have? She's probably not even starting high school yet, right? You want her to come to the lab to study?"
"If I offended you in the past, I would have just said so—why did you have to put a husky in my mouth to torment me?"
Iselin's hands trembled slightly, but for the sake of her peaceful future, she unhesitatingly took on this "important task."
"You're going to see Tesla? Wait, you didn't already tell her by name that you want to come and learn from me, did you?"
Iselin suddenly realized something and her eyes widened.
"It's not that bad... I just said that I would find her a PhD in anti-entropy to study with in the next few days."
"Then go find Tesla; a brat and a hot temper are a perfect match—"
Dr. Iserly immediately dropped the burden.
"Aren't you afraid that the two of them will start fighting and blow up the Anti-Entropy headquarters?"
"What are you panicking about? Giving away Tesla is practically the same as giving away Einstein, which is indirectly the same as giving away the leader of the alliance."
"Although the leader's return this time was short, it was enough for him to show up in front of the radical members and give them a warning. It was also a good opportunity to teach that unlucky kid a lesson."
"Most of the conservatives know that the leader's previous dream was to become a teacher, which is exactly what the leader wanted."
"Uh, isn't this a bad idea?"
Simon scratched his head, then hesitated, thinking back to when the leader was still active and would cough occasionally, sometimes even with a little blood in his cough.
"The Alliance Leader is on the ship, why don't you go ask him? I won't take him with me, not to mention... have you forgotten that I'm not much older than that bear spirit?"
"Uh, oh... Okay, I'll go ask the alliance leader..."
...
"As for Xing, I understand. Simon... take all the children from Cocolia Orphanage to the headquarters in North America..."
"Are you serious...? As far as I know... there aren't many of Cocolia's adopted daughters who are easy to deal with."
“That’s just an isolated case… Simon, don’t be misled by a few troublemakers—there are also some ordinary children in the orphanage… By their age, they should all be of school age by now.”
"And relocating the orphanage...won't that provoke the radicals and the World Serpent? The North American headquarters has always represented the conservative forces."
Simon's expression held a hint of doubt.
“The radicals need not worry. As for the World Serpent... I have met with their leader... so we can consider it a consensus.”
"You've already met him? —Snow?"
"Snow—"
Yang nodded, putting Simon at ease.
Chapter 132 That Man! .jpg
In an earlier timeline, within the deepest bubble of the Quanta Sea, two old people and a young boy were idly slurping noodles, discussing what to do that day. They were wasting their lives slurping noodles day after day.
"We're still one short for three people, whether we're playing mahjong or poker... How about we play Ludo?"
Snow stroked his chin and made a new suggestion.
"Hmm... Slurp—doing anything with three people just doesn't feel quite right."
Kevin slurped his noodles while pondering the situation.
"If we're short one person—there's one right outside..."
Su looked up and smiled slightly at the quantum ocean beyond the world bubble, as if he had spotted a sucker in some anti-entropy scheme.
“Right... let’s bring Walter Young in.”
--
"How will you be here?"
Under Yang's horrified expression, Snow and Kevin appeared on his face.
