Collapse, the Ordinary Daily Life of the Valkyries

Gao Su gave his own explanation:

"Just like our current civilization era originated from the previous civilization era."

"However, we lack themes about urban reconstruction after apocalyptic disasters to guide the public."

Bronya made the decision to launch the "Zero" project. After all, the only games under Mihoyo that can make money now are "Honkai Gakuen" and "Honkai Impact 3rd".

Moreover, she was making money for the mecha game "Alahato α" that she wanted to make successfully:

“When can it be released soonest?”

"That might be a bit long. After all, we haven't released the triple-A masterpiece "Imaginary Ring" yet."

Bronya was skeptical about Gao Su's confidence. After all, nothing was settled yet.

She rubbed her temples to relieve the fatigue of the past few days. In a trance, Bronya seemed to see the bonfire again.

She laughed at herself, she was really addicted to playing games, she had hallucinations a few days ago, and now she has hallucinations again.

Bronya felt it was time for her to take a break. She leaned back against the soft seat and tilted her head towards the captain's body.

"Should I take a break? After playing your game all night for a few days, I even saw the Firewood Bonfire appear in my sight."

"Oh? Is that so? Then you really need to rest, Bronya. Staying up late playing games is not good for your current health."

"Indeed, it doesn't feel like the time before when the Herrscher Core was still effective. Back then, I could last over a month without any problems."

Bronya yawned and confided in the captain. As she spoke, Gao Su helped her tidy up her frizzy gray hair:

"It's okay. Once everyone gets used to it, the Honkai energy will inject new vitality into the Herrscher core in your body."

"I should have returned this to Mr. Walter, Captain. This is not mine."

Speaking of the Herrscher Core, Bronya remembered that when she was planning to return the Herrscher Core to Walter Young, she was firmly rejected by Gao Su.

Hearing Bronya's words, Gao Su's eyes darkened, but returned to normal before Bronya noticed:

"He allowed you to inherit the Herrscher Core, Bronya. Now, the Herrscher Core is yours."

"Don't you think that if you use the Herrscher Core and return it to him, you'll be like a tool?"

Bronya didn't think there was anything wrong with Gao Su's words, but continued to talk to him:

"Tools? What makes you think that?"

"I can't help it. He really is like a tool, don't you think? He gave you the Herrscher Core, and you went to save the Honkai. After saving it, you have to return the Herrscher Core to him. What else can he do if not a tool?"

Gao Su replied, to which Bronya smiled helplessly:

"Captain, this is pure nonsense. Mr. Walter, as well as Dr. Tesla and Dr. Einstein, are all people with great foresight."

"Of course, they can't compare to you in this regard. After all, your vision is too far ahead of the times. Even today, I still find it a little incredible."

Letting his straightened hair down, Gao Su stood in front of the French window with his back to Bronya, overlooking the crowd below:

"Is that so? That's true. Let's go home and have dinner. Mei has prepared dinner for us at home."

"it is good."

Bronya agreed without thinking, she really needed to rest.

"What a pity that the heavily armored bunny isn't around. Otherwise, why would he be stuck in traffic like this?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Bronya lowered the backrest, kicked off her high-heeled cloth shoes, and put her legs in black matte solid stockings on the dashboard:

"Be careful, I'll brake suddenly and you'll end up under the passenger seat."

Gao Su glanced at Bronya who was sitting like this. After hearing the captain's words, Bronya moved her chair back a little:

"That won't happen. I'll contact Xi'er first to see how she and Susanna are doing in Changkong City."

"Row."

Gao Su gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, looking at the traffic jam in front of him, and pressed the dial button on the steering wheel:

(2) "Hey, Mei."

Mei, who was playing "Imaginary Ring" with a controller at home, held the phone while playing the game:

"What's wrong, Captain?"

"There's a traffic jam on the road. Bronya and I might be slow to get back. You don't have to wait for us. You can eat first, Mei."

Hearing that the Captain and Bronya would be back for dinner tonight, Mei put down the controller and glanced at the refrigerator. They hadn't called for so long, she thought they were working overtime at Mihoyo again tonight.

"It's okay, Captain. I haven't started yet. I'll cook in half an hour, okay?"

After taking a look at the clock in the car, Gao Su thought it was okay:

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mei."

"We're talking between ourselves."

He stood up, opened the refrigerator, and took out the food he had just put in.

"Be careful on the road."

"it is good."

Gao Su hung up the phone and started playing music:

"When will my spring breeze come and take me to the sea..."

Bronya, who was on the phone, finally contacted Seele, whom she hadn't seen for a long time:

"Hi, Xi'er."

Seeing that she was chatting with Seele, Gao Su turned down the music in the car. Seele, who was finishing the treatment with Susanna, was a little excited when she saw Bronya:

"Long time no see, Sister Bronya!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Xier. How is your and Susanna's investigation in Changkong City going? Do you need any technical support?"

As Bronya spoke, she flipped the camera and filmed Gao Su, who was concentrating on driving, to Seele:

"No, Sister Bronya, I don't need you to help me with the difficulties I'm facing in Changkong City."

"However, according to our investigation, it was the Gray Snake who was behind this. 'He wanted real skin,' 'he wanted to feel pain and temperature,' 'he wanted blood to flow through it,' and 'he wanted it to look like a human body.'"

"In short, it's a prosthetic that's similar, if not identical, to real limbs and organs, not just in terms of function, but also in appearance and the user's experience."

These words made Bronya frown. This was not a good thing, because the last person who did this was Otto Apokalis, who lived for more than 500 years with his soul steel body.

"We've contacted the doctors and plan to raid New City Pharmaceuticals' headquarters and wait for Gray Snake to arrive."

Finally, Bronya found the organization to which this familiar name belonged in her mind:

"As I recall, Gray Snake is from the World Serpent, right?"

"That's right, Sister Bronya."

However, Gao Su has a different view on this:

"Human? First of all, Gray Snake is a simulated person. Secondly, he is different from Kiana. At most, he can only be considered a humanoid creature, or in other words, a simulated human body loaded with human consciousness."

"Xi'er, my suggestion is to make extermination the primary objective. Don't show mercy to the Gray Snakes; we must completely eliminate them."

"If necessary, I will have Heaven's Will dispatch the Hyperion to provide you with weapons and air support."

"Since he doesn't intend to let us figure out his purpose, then let him die with his purpose. If he doesn't speak now, don't speak later."

Xier nodded. The Gray Snake's purpose was still unclear, and the captain's way of doing things could indeed avoid a lot of losses.

Moreover, the Hyperion's naval guns are now able to accurately destroy a building in the center of the city without damaging other places:

"Okay Captain, Susanna and I will set off immediately."

"Be careful, Xi'er, and come back safely."

　"As you command, Captain."

Xier hung up the call with Gao Su and Bronya. The next moment, Gao Su called Rita:

"Rita."

"I await your orders, Captain."

Rita, who had just finished training with Youlandel, was leaning against a corner of the training ground, recovering her strength and listening to Gao Su's cold and ruthless words:

"Hyperion dispatched, target: Changkong City, precise address: Xincheng Pharmaceutical, mission: annihilate."

"As you command, Captain."

A hint of coldness flashed across Rita's rosy eyes. She knew that Xier and Susanna were going to Changkong City for a mission.

The target of her investigation was none other than the cunning gray snake she had fought during the Great Collapse. Her brows were filled with worry:

"Captain, you are also aware that Gray Snake used Lady Kiana in Sky City during the Great Collapse, right?"

Gao Su parked the car in front of the Valkyrie dormitory and pulled the handbrake:

"Of course I know there's no need to negotiate with this cunning villain. Even if he has three burrows, eliminating him is the best option."

"With Kevin gone, Raven and the Jackal have also been taken in by us. I don't believe he can make any waves."

Listening to the captain's words, Rita nodded, took off her wet sportswear and threw it into the washing machine.

After a simple cleaning, I put on the Valkyrie armor and headed to the helipad of the Destiny headquarters:

"Got a mission?"

Yulandel had just come out of the bathroom and saw Rita heading for the helipad. She quickly followed her and Rita nodded.

"Captain ordered an annihilation mission, the target is Gray Snake."

"There won't be any accidents, right? Deploying the Hyperion like this?"

Yulandel had her own concerns. Although Changkong City was now under the jurisdiction of Tianming, the deployment of aerospace warships would cause too much noise.

"Have you forgotten? Lord Yulandel, the captain had the Hyperion equipped with holographic armor."

"To outsiders, the Hyperion's firing was nothing more than a sudden explosion of sunlight."

Rita smiled mysteriously, while Yulandel put on her Valkyrie armor and picked up her weapon:

"I'll go with you. Have you reported to Bishop Theresa?"

"Let the Captain worry about this. I don't want to face the reprimand from Lady Theresa."

Volume 1: Have we really defeated Honkai? Chapter 16: Advanced evolution drives subsequent evolution, please witness it

"Next, regarding the issue of the reorganization of Tianming, does anyone have any objections?"

On Monday, at Tianming's regular mid-level and senior management staff meeting, Theresa brought up the final item on the agenda. Gao Su, who sat across from her, took the lead in speaking:

"When I was at Mihoyo, the game agency under Anti-Entropy actually dared to slam the table in front of me and challenge me. Who gave them the courage to do this?"

"I wonder if it's because the Anti-Entropy Alliance leader is always lazy that this situation has occurred."

"After all, Anti-Entropy is a powerful entity that can even clone its own leader and manipulate him at will."

"Furthermore, based on what happened to the Raiden Society in Changkong City, it's not uncommon for Anti-Entropy members to attack each other."

"Even during the battle against the Thousand Herrschers, they were coerced by American congressmen."

Gao Su's sudden attack on Anti-Entropy caught the Valkyries present, as well as the Anti-Entropy members who had reunited with Destiny, by surprise:

"Of course, let's build some armor first. I don't have any objection to the Anti-Entropy executives working together again."

"It's just that in this situation, I think that Destiny shouldn't accept all of its vassals under the banner of Anti-Entropy. We need to discard the dross and retain the essence."

"Also, I don't really agree with disbanding and reorganizing the Valkyrie Corps. This is such a self-defeating act."

"Because we don't know if there are other enemies outside the universe who are eyeing us, relying on Kiana and the others alone is definitely not enough."

"Having a sword in your hand but not using it is not the same as having no sword to use. This is my opinion, Bishop Theresa."

Theresa glanced at the captain, then looked around at the surrounding Valkyries, as well as the newly joined Tesla, Einstein, Walter Yang, and Thunder Ryuma:

"So, any other suggestions?"

At this moment, Walter Yang raised his hand, and after getting Theresa's nod, he gave his own suggestion:
