Firefly, I want to be a Sanyo Hermit

Although she cannot be called a saint, she is not far from it.

"In short, instead of guessing here, Sister Kiana, why don't you just try it directly." Raiden Mei gave her own thoughts.

"Well, Mei, you're right. After all, seeking cooperation with Anti-Entropy was just a sudden thought. If you are willing to cooperate, it would be the best. If you are not willing... it doesn't matter." Kiana nodded and looked at Sirin. "What do you think, Sirin?"

"Don't you have Yu Duchen in your hand?" Xilin said seriously after pondering for a long while. "Come to their door, hypnotize them, and take them in as dogs! Let them sacrifice for the sake of mankind."

"Promise me you won't play Paradox's games anymore!" Kiana shouted.

"Okay." Xilin nodded slightly and agreed to Qiana.

However, no matter how much you choose not to play, some of the twisted ideas cannot be changed back.

And in the final analysis, this is Xilin's personality. It is true that she pays attention to the people around her, but she is completely indifferent to "outsiders".

What's more, Anti-Entropy is also Xilin's enemy to a certain extent, so Xilin does not mind using the method just proposed to hypnotize those people of Anti-Entropy.

The former Xilin might not have thought of these things, but Xilin, who has been polluted by the Internet, is different.

This is a necessary sacrifice, anti-entropy Mina-san.

It can even be said that a lot of what Xilin learned about the application of her powers was actually learned on the Internet.

All we can say is that netizens have all kinds of weird imaginations but also have flexible moral bottom lines.

C.74 Conversation

[Of course, I support your choice unconditionally, Kiana.]

Although Kiana has great power now, Otto is still the [Archbishop of Destiny] after all... For such an important matter, Kiana still informed Otto.

Otto was also very considerate and agreed to Kiana without hesitation.

For several years, Otto has been continuously delegating power to Kiana, and has been trying every means to cultivate Kiana, both overtly and covertly.

Of course Otto knew that Kiana was not a very smart person, and was different from himself, a scumbag with a super flexible moral bottom line.

But precisely because of this, Otto believes that Kiana will definitely be able to attract more talents.

How do you say that?

'Sincerity is the greatest weapon'

The more important point is...Otto knows very well that Kiana's path will not deviate.

Although Otto was indeed born into an unrelated family, one thing must be acknowledged.

"Otto's destiny has never deviated from the path of fighting the Honkai"

Well... although it sounds a bit ironic, even in the [original world], Otto was the culprit who let [Xilin] go and caused tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of casualties.

But destiny has never deviated from its path.

Perhaps for Otto, fighting against Honkai is just a "side quest" on the road to saving Kallen, but for ordinary people, destiny is to always fight against Honkai organizations.

Kiana is even more pure than Otto, and is determined to transcend Honkai.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if Kiana is not that smart. She doesn't need to become like me, the 'archbishop who unifies everything'. She just needs to continue to be Kiana, and then she will inevitably become the 'hub' of everything.

As for management...someone will always help her do it.

"Okay." Kiana responded calmly.

Although Otto has indeed done a lot for her over the years, Kiana will not be moved by Otto's actions.

And after all, if they wanted to take revenge on Otto, they could just send him to death.

As for Otto, the best reward was to send him to see Kallen as agreed.

"Alliance leader, Mei sent a message saying that Miss Kiana wants to discuss something with us." Raiden Ryoma contacted Walter and explained the reason for this contact.

[Ms. Kiana? Did Mei explain her intentions?] After hearing what Raiden Ryoma said, Walter thought for a moment and nodded.

She and Kiana were not very familiar with each other, but they were not strangers either.

Over the years, Kiana, as a Herrscher, has done a lot for humanity, so Walter believes that Kiana is a 'Herscher who fights for humanity', even though she did not behave that way at first. But looking back now...

Kiana's performance at that time seemed more like an acting performance to protect Xilin.

But...maybe women are really born actors, and Kiana acted well enough at that time.

"Mei just said 'it's about the stigmata' and didn't say much else." Raiden Ryoma shook his head.

However, he could see that Mei Raiden was not unaware of what Kiana wanted to discuss, but she just didn't say it.

[Is that so... In that case, then Ryoma, you can make the arrangements.] After a short consideration, Walter decided to agree to the meeting with Kiana.

"Yes, Alliance Leader."

...

......

Raiden Ryoma's arrangement was simple, the meeting place was at the 'Changkong City Headquarters' of 'ME Company'.

Because Raiden Ryoma actually knew very well that he didn't need to make any unnecessary arrangements.

His own leader is definitely not a match for Kiana, and no matter how many arrangements he makes, he is still no match for Kiana.

If Kiana really wants to attack suddenly and hurt someone, perhaps only by activating the [Divine Grace Barrier] at the moment of her attack can she be restrained.

But the [Oath of Judah] is on the side of destiny...so any arrangement is meaningless to Kiana.

"Buzz~~"

Raiden Ryoma received an alarm from the detector, but he knew who was coming and turned off the alarm.

At the same time, the space in front of Raiden Ryoma suddenly began to distort, and then a hole opened in the space, and Kiana walked out of it.

In fact, there is no need for Kiana to appear in this way. Her teleportation is enough to prevent the alarm from reacting.

But for Kiana, these alarms were actually just notifying Raiden Ryoma that she was here.

"It's been more than half a year since we last met, right? Mr. Ryoma." Kiana didn't dress up much. She was wearing a white coat as a researcher, and her silver hair was tied into a high ponytail as usual... It seemed that she hadn't changed her hairstyle in more than ten years.

"Ms. Kiana hasn't been to Changkong City since the last New Year." Raiden Ryoma also stood up and greeted politely.

Although Kiana gets along well with his daughter, Raiden Ryoma has always treated Kiana as a peer and someone who needs to be respected.

"It has indeed been a while...Has Alliance Leader Walter arrived?" Although she asked this, Kiana had actually sensed Walter's presence a long time ago.

"Of course, the leader is already waiting for your arrival, Miss Kiana, in the reception room." Regardless of their previous personal relationship, today Raiden Ryoma's attitude towards Kiana was much more respectful than usual.

Because Kiana is usually a friend of his wife and gets along well with his daughter.

But today, Kiana is the representative of destiny.

"Okay, I'll go there now." Kiana nodded slightly, turned around and disappeared in the office without even leaving any trace.

'I don't know what Miss Kiana wants to discuss with the leader this time...' Raiden Ryoma muttered to himself.

----

“I haven’t seen Teacher Yang for a long time. Why did you suddenly resign?” Kiana came to the living room and saw Walter.

"Hahaha..." Hearing what Kiana said, Walter smiled and waved his hands. "It's because something happened in Anti-Entropy, and I really can't take care of both ends."

"I see." Kiana nodded and pulled a chair to sit down. "Actually, I asked you to come here this time because I have something very important to discuss."

"I'd like to hear the details." Since Kiana changed the address to 'Alliance Leader Walter', Walter also showed the proper attitude.

"It's about the 'Stigmata'." Kiana looked at Walter. "Alliance Leader Walter should have heard the news. The 'Biochemistry Department' of the Mandate of Heaven has made a major breakthrough in the progress of the [Stigmata Factor Supplement Potion] and the [Stigmata Factor Activation Potion] recently, right?"

C.75 In fact, Kiana doesn't know how to negotiate

Many things are known to everyone.

Just like there are a lot of Destiny’s spies in Anti-Entropy, there must be Anti-Entropy’s spies in Destiny as well.

However, the composition of anti-entropy itself is special. It is not like destiny. It is a huge organization that is integrated from top to bottom.

Anti-Entropy is more like an alliance. Many times, members of Anti-Entropy do not know that their "upper line" is Anti-Entropy.

So in a way, anti-entropy is harder to penetrate than destiny...

But in the same way, Destiny is not afraid of the infiltration of anti-entropy.

"...Ms. Kiana, please speak directly." Walter did not admit that he had heard the news, but asked Kiana to directly state her purpose.

"Well, I won't talk nonsense anymore." Although Kiana can talk nonsense, she is not good at negotiation. "Recently, the stigmata series of drugs we developed have reached a bottleneck."

In fact, it is not a real bottleneck, it just slows down the progress of research and development.

After all, the information brought by Cleo the Jackal was indeed a lot and very useful, but it was not all the information.

However, the stigmata are so sophisticated that it is extremely difficult to use these data to reverse engineer the complete information.

That's why Kiana has to admire scientists from the pre-civilization era like Dr. Mei.

They are truly the best of the best.

"What does this have to do with Miss Kiana coming to us for Anti-Entropy?" Walter asked, but he already had a general idea of ​​Kiana's intentions.

"It's simple. I want to borrow some people from Anti-Entropy." Kiana stated her purpose naturally. "Including but not limited to lobsters... I mean Dr. Tesla, Dr. Einstein, and you, Lord Walter."

Although Walter is not a true scientist, as a "Rule of Law", his power is still very useful.

"...If it is Miss Kiana's proposal, we at Anti-Entropy can accept it." Walter said after pondering for a moment.

Kiana's existence was too mysterious. She suddenly appeared, and was powerful enough to suppress the Herrscher of this world. However, all her actions seemed to be for the continuation of mankind, so Walter could believe her.

But being able to trust him out of human feelings does not mean that Walter can really lead all those who believe in him to help Kiana.

After all, Kiana is still a member of Destiny in name, but Anti-Entropy and Destiny are irreconcilable.

"Well, reward, right?" Kiana nodded.

She is not good at negotiating, so she usually chooses to throw her cards out there.

Kiana is not good at either conspiracy or overt scheme, but her strength is enough to turn the reward she throws into an 'open scheme'.

"It's very simple. I plan to kill Otto. If the stigma potion can be broken through or even completed as soon as possible, then I will also kill Otto as soon as possible." Kiana bluntly stated that she wanted to kill Otto.

But in fact...killing Otto was part of the deal between Kiana and Otto from the beginning.

Not only that, while Kiana couldn't wait to kill Otto, Otto was even more eager to die.

He wished that Kiana would finish what she said in the morning and kill him in the afternoon.

"This?" Walter was completely dumbfounded when he heard the reward given by Kiana.

According to the intelligence received by Anti-Entropy, Otto takes great care of Kiana.

The last person who received such meticulous treatment from Otto was Theresa...and Kiana was treated even better than Theresa.

Although Otto did not announce it, Theresa is still the head of Apokalis.

But everyone can see that Kiana is 80% the next generation of Archbishop...

The remaining 20% ​​is Otto's tradition of respecting destiny. The Archbishop still belongs to Apokalis, and the position of Archbishop is given to Theresa.

But perhaps no one would doubt that before Otto passed the [Archbishop] to Theresa, he would first establish a [Pope] for Kiana.

In other words, no matter what, Kiana will inevitably become the actual leader of the next generation of Destiny, the one who will unify all power.

"Are you eager to usurp the throne?" Even Walter, who believed that Kiana was not the kind of person who liked power, was now somewhat suspicious of Kiana's plan.

The main reason is that Otto is too long-lived. We don’t know when he will abdicate on his own.

Is Kiana now planning to kill Otto and take over?

"Why?" Walter frowned and asked. "Miss Kiana, you are not doing this for the power of the Archbishop, right?"

"I don't need this power." Kiana spread her hands. Why does she need so much power? "I've already said that this is the reward I paid."

To some extent, Kiana has indeed learned bad things. "Killing Otto" was originally Kiana's reward to Otto, and now she has given this reward to Anti-Entropy.

In other words, she only needs to do the same thing to satisfy the needs of both parties and maximize her own "interests".

But this is all natural.
