The world is broken, my Valkyrie is doubled

"What to do is up to you, Theresa. You've grown up now, and it's time for you to take responsibility for some things. In short, grandpa won't mobilize the headquarters and branches for support before the Great Disaster breaks out..." Otto looked at the people present and smiled, saying.

"But grandpa is not a heartless person, so he sent Kiana here this time. She inherited Cecilia's bloodline and claimed to have inherited the name of Shanyati. Grandpa doesn't need to remind you of the hidden power of the Shanyati family. Little Theresa, whether you can create a miracle is up to you young people. I am looking forward to your performance."

Theresa lowered her head and didn't say anything, as if she was thinking about something, while Wang Chen secretly complained that Otto was just like in the game, a loser, doing nothing, but saying something like "I'm optimistic about you guys". I'm afraid that if he and others really create the so-called miracle, he will also come to share a piece of the victory cake.

Chapter 51: Treating guests to behead, accepting them as dogs

"Okay, my little Theresa, it doesn't matter if you can't think of an answer for the time being. After all, it will take a long time for the Great Collapse to come, and you can think about it slowly. Now, my lovely Theresa, do you mind if I take up a little of your Kiana and your Captain Hyperion's time?" Otto said with a smile, his arms crossed and his elbows resting on the table.

"..." Theresa glanced at Wang Chen and [Qiana], and then asked, "Is there anything else I don't want to know?"

"No, no, my little Theresa, of course I don't mind you being around. It's just that, besides the three of you here, there seems to be another cute child, right? Um... I remember that you are the child taken away by Siegfried, right... By the way, child, do you want to know something about your father in the past?" Otto pointed at Kiana meaningfully.

"Eh? News about my stinky dad?" Kiana actually has always had a very bad impression of this golden-haired man. If Wang Chen hadn't established a link in advance for telepathic communication, informed her of the other party's identity and told her not to act rashly, she would have wanted to rush up and punch Otto on the screen when Otto said that he would not send support and would watch Changkong City be destroyed.

But now, the other party suddenly mentioned the news about Siegfried, which naturally attracted Kiana's attention, and she couldn't help but ask.

"Tsk..." Theresa looked at Otto with dissatisfaction, then turned to Kiana and said, "Xiao Qi, let's go out first."

"Eh, but? News about my stinky dad..."

"As his aunt, don't I know everything about Siegfried? Don't listen to what that bad grandpa says. I'll tell you everything you want to hear." As she said that, Theresa took Kiana's hand and prepared to leave.

Kiana looked at her sister and brother-in-law, and seeing that they also indicated that she had no problem and let her leave on her own, she had no choice but to nod and follow Theresa out of the room. Before leaving, Theresa glanced at Wang Chen and Kiana and said, "Don't force yourself..." After leaving a word, Theresa and Kiana left the room.

"Oh... Really, I've been treated as a bad grandfather. I'm really sorry to have embarrassed you two... guests." Otto shook his head helplessly, then looked at Wang Chen and [Kiana], and emphasized the word "guest" in his tone.

"Just be frank, Bishop Otto, what exactly are you planning?" After Wang Chen established a mental link with Kiana, he spoke first.

"Let me think, what should I call you two... Are you just travelers drifting in this world, appreciating and adventuring in this world? Or are you pioneers who set foot in the stars and other worlds for some lofty ideals? Or should I use a word that has been popular in the East recently, traversers?" Otto was very "distressed" and frowned as he thought, but soon he smiled and said.

"What do you think? The Bishop of Destiny from another world?"

"What? Bishop? What's going on? How did I become a bishop?" Although Wang Chen's face did not change, he was very confused in his heart.

"Captain...you did serve as the Bishop of Destiny for a period of time. In a certain world bubble incident, the mark on your chest is the best proof..." The voice of [Kiana] entered Wang Chen's mind.

"Is there such a thing?" Wang Chen understood, so he calmed down and said, "Since Bishop Otto knows everything, why don't we speak frankly? Why did you deliberately arrange identities for us?"

"Haha, just like little Theresa, this is also a gift I prepared for you two. After all, in this world, I think no one is more qualified than me to let you two have a legal identity in this world. Moreover, it is just as you have declared to the outside world, one is the Valkyrie and the other is Captain Hyperion. Whatever identity you want, I can give you. Even... if you are important enough, it is not a bad idea for me to hand over my position." Otto patted the chair he was sitting on and said with a smile.

"How about it, can you two feel the sincerity I put into giving you the gifts?"

“Heh…” Wang Chen thought to himself. If he hadn’t known what kind of person you were from the beginning, he would have really been fooled by you. So he said, “I appreciate Bishop Otto’s kindness. But you don’t need the position of bishop anymore. You should just sit there by yourself.”

"Haha..." Otto just chuckled twice, then said, "Let's put the gift matter aside for now. The two of you made quite a fuss in Changkong City. First, you kidnapped my experimental subject K423, and then you caused a big commotion in ME Company."

"In fact, I was quite curious at first. From what I know so far, the whole world just has three of you for no apparent reason... How did you three find my experimental subjects so accurately and learn about Anti-Entropy's movements in the first place? You know, although those guys from Anti-Entropy are just insects in my eyes, it is undeniable that Anti-Entropy also has their strengths. At least in these sneaky activities, they are undoubtedly geniuses among geniuses." Otto chuckled, then pressed his fingers on his head and tapped it lightly.

"So, I have always been curious about how you were able to fully understand the movements and layout of Anti-Entropy just a few days after arriving in this world... until I met another one... yes, that is you, the other Kiana Kaslana." Otto pointed at Kiana and said.

"Whether it's the use of the emergency car or your subsequent understanding of Theresa... they all tell me one thing. Your world is probably not much different from ours... to the point that there are the same people... and even the same things happen... Maybe some things will be different, such as you being the bishop of destiny. But some things should still be the same, such as Theresa and St. Freya Academy, and... the third great collapse that is about to happen. Am I right?"

"The entire universe and even the universe beyond it are made up of the imaginary tree and the quantum sea. The imaginary tree is rooted in the quantum sea. They compete with each other and transform into each other. Time flows on the trunk of the imaginary tree, like a tree crown, branching out into infinite worlds. Each branch breeds a world. Most of these worlds are imaginary spaces, and occasionally real spaces with life will be born. You and we are in such real spaces."

"Honkai Impact is a mechanism that was created by the Imaginary Number Tree in its competition with the Quantum Ocean to screen and correct the direction of development of its branches and leaves. Worlds that cannot survive the baptism of Honkai Impact will be eliminated and fall into the Quantum Ocean, turning into incomplete world bubbles." (A quick comment: This setting has already been taken by the official)

"So I can boldly infer... your former space has long since failed to resist the collapse... and eventually withered like leaves on a treetop that no longer needs to wither, and sank into the quantum world and turned into a bubble... This is also the reason why after you came to this world, you showed your best efforts to reverse the third great collapse. That's right, the two from the Quantum Sea. After all, you have finally come to a new home, and you don't want this new home to repeat the same mistakes."

For the first time, Wang Chen felt tremendous pressure. This was not a difference in strength... The man on the opposite screen easily understood his actions, identity, and purpose with only the intelligence he had. He was indeed a genius recognized by Void Wanzang, an old monster who had led Tianming for 500 years.

Kiana shrugged nonchalantly and said in a telepathic conversation, "Tsk, as expected, no matter which world he is in, this old freak is always nagging and self-satisfied. It makes people angry. Don't pay attention to him, Captain. He can deduce the above-mentioned things and our identities so clearly. It's not something he analyzed from the intelligence at all."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"Captain, at this point in time, Otto hasn't even obtained the Sumeru Mustard Seed. How could he know the nature of the Imaginary Number Tree and the Quantum Sea? If it weren't for us providing him with this information." Kiana said.

"What are your plans?"

"That's right, so Captain, don't worry... Otto's discovery of our identities was part of the plan. In other words, it will be much easier for us to move around in this world thanks to him." Kiana said.

"But Captain... you may have to be disgusted by this guy for a while in the near future. After all, we are now the people of destiny, and we will naturally be under his jurisdiction. Since we are not as strong as him now, we can only endure it for a while. Of course, if the captain can't stand it anymore and wants to beat him up, we will follow him immediately."

Kiana's words undoubtedly calmed Wang Chen's previously restless heart. He felt that after feeling Kiana's confidence, he now had enough confidence to deal with this old monster who had lived for 500 years.

"Now, Captain, let's tell you the purpose of our trip to Changkong City... Otto is so kind to arrange identities for us and say a lot of things to oppress us. His purpose is nothing more than to squeeze our value, especially... his ultimate goal is to get information from other worlds and the technology to travel through worlds from us. After all, the reason why he does this... Captain, you know it."

"Oh... yes, I almost forgot... resurrecting Kallen, right... Haha, this reminds me of something, I can use it to vent my anger without taking any action." To be honest, Wang Chen had been oppressed by Otto's words. At the same time, he felt a little aggrieved, but he had been full of anger in his heart for a long time, and it was a good opportunity to vent it.

Oh, treat and behead, huh? You want us to be your Otto's dogs? Dream on!

Chapter 52: Otto, what is your choice?

Otto was looking at the reactions of the two people in front of him. Whether it was arranging a legal identity as a gift to the other party, or making a strong appearance and using rhetoric to fight for the sovereignty of discourse, Otto did all this for only one purpose, that is, to subdue these two travelers from other worlds.

There are many things about them that interest him. For example, information about other worlds, and technology to travel to other worlds. Currently, both the technology to fight against Honkai and the method to revive Kallen have reached a bottleneck. Although Otto has faced such bottlenecks many times in the past five hundred years, he has long been accustomed to it.

But Otto was obviously unwilling to be confined to the bottleneck. Now, the way to break the bottleneck seemed to appear in these two people. But Otto knew that this matter could not be rushed. Since the other party had the means to travel through the world, if he pushed him too hard and he just left, then Otto's plan would be in vain.

However, according to the information about the nature of the Quantum Sea and the World Bubble that Rita had provided to him before, and by observing the other party's performance through words, the other party's civilization and world had indeed turned into a bubble. Therefore, now they were like a lonely ship floating in the vast ocean called the Quantum Sea, without any foothold, and drifting continuously.

Therefore, what they need most now is a stable world where they can continue to survive. That is, a "harbor" where their lonely ship can dock. And this world of theirs, which is similar to their original world, has undoubtedly become their goal.

As soon as they entered this world, they desperately tried to change the situation of the Great Collapse of Changkong City. This was undoubtedly based on the lessons they learned from their previous failed world. It seemed that he might have to intervene in the Great Collapse of Changkong City... After all, he couldn't let this world be destroyed before resurrecting Kallen.

Now, Otto had to maintain a good balance, seize the opponent's weakness, but not push him too hard. He didn't expect people like him to be his loyal dogs, but at least he had to keep them firmly in his hands and let him use them as he pleased, just like that old friend.

The sound of "Pa Pa Pa" interrupted Otto's thoughts. Otto looked at the screen and saw Wang Chen clapping his hands. He said, "Excellent! As expected, no matter which world it is, those who can sit in the position of the Bishop of Heaven's Fate are definitely not mediocre people."

Otto was not averse to the straightforward praise. After all, he also thought so. How could a person who could sit in this position, overlooking the entire world and holding it firmly in his hands, be vulgar?

Therefore, Otto couldn't help but look up to the man in front of him. He was looking forward to seeing what kind of response this traveler from another world, who was also a Bishop of Destiny, would give him.

"In that case, I might as well tell Bishop Otto directly that we must save Changkong City from collapse. After all, this is a bloody lesson we have learned. We have finally found another world that is so similar, and I don't want this world to be destroyed... I think... Bishop Otto probably doesn't want this world to be destroyed so soon." Wang Chen said with a slow smile.

"Oh? Rather than the destruction of the world... Your Excellency emphasized 'so fast'? Why do you think so?" Bishop Otto asked with a smile.

"I have been to many world bubbles and met many 'Ottos'... Some of them are lunatics, some are dictators, some are clowns, and some are... Ha, they ran away. What I want to say is that although they can always find many different places... but at least one thing is the same, and I think you should be the same... Before you achieve that goal... you don't want this world to be destroyed." Wang Chen said.

"Oh? What's your purpose? Tell me about it." Otto looked at Wang Chen with interest and said.

"Resurrection..." Wang Chen only uttered two words, then stopped talking and looked at Otto with a smile.

Otto leaned forward slightly and nodded, as if giving Wang Chen a positive answer, or perhaps affirming himself. He stood up from his chair for the first time and said, "Resurrection... Resurrection... Well, very good, Captain Wang Chen, I can make an agreement with you. When you need it most, I will send my destiny troops to support you."

"With the bishop's promise, I feel much more relieved," said Wang Chen.

"Haha, we each get what we need. I hope we can have more opportunities to cooperate in the future. I also hope that you two can bring me more surprises then." Bishop Otto sat back in his seat and said with a smile.

"So now, Captain Wang Chen, go do what you want to do and prove to me that you really have the power to change the future."

"Thank you for your understanding and help... By the way, Bishop Otto, since you are so kind-hearted to help us get an identity, I will also tell you a trivial story. Perhaps you will be interested in this story." Wang Chen's mouth curled up slightly, and [Kiana], who was connected to Wang Chen's soul, was stunned after noticing Wang Chen's thoughts, and then looked at Otto with a weird look.

"Oh? Stories? I was just worried that I had no new stories to tell little Theresa to put her to sleep. Although now she may not need a grandfather like me to tell her stories anymore." Otto said this, but his eyes began to focus and become serious. He knew that the man in front of him would not tell him some absurd stories to entertain him.

So Wang Chen told a very ordinary story. The story started with a blond aspiring young man who accidentally came into contact with a taboo, and eventually got involved in the power of evil, implicated and killed many innocent people. Usually in this kind of story, the young man would undoubtedly eventually become a demon king and become the target of everyone's crusade.

But the story did not develop in this way. The appearance of a saint stopped all this and rescued the man from the abyss.

However, things are unpredictable, the world is not grateful for the coming of the Saint, and the top leaders have long been corrupted and corroded by the source of evil. The Saint wants to take away this evil, and the man also musters up the courage to escape from the corrupt organization with her.

The two eventually joined hands to seal the source of evil in an unknown place. However, both of them were cursed by evil and their bodies could not hold out for much longer. The saint only had two short years to live and died early. Fortunately, the blond man accompanied the saint until the last moment.

Afterwards, the blond man buried the saint in a foreign country, traveled to other countries, and finally settled on a snowy field, established an orphanage, adopted and cared for the children.

After many years, the blond man's life came to an end... In his last moments, his children surrounded him and cried for him. Before he died, he reviewed his life. Perhaps this kind of death was a punishment for his being tainted with darkness and involving the lives of innocent people, and also a responsibility for the mistakes he had made in the past.

The blond man finally passed on his words and the spirit of the saint to the next generation of children, and then passed away. His children will also take on this responsibility and continue to explore and save this imperfect world.

……

"How about it? This story is pretty good, as a bedtime story for Theresa." Wang Chen said with a smile.

“……” Otto didn’t say anything. He was so silent and so immersed in the story.

"I think this story is very good, especially the moment when he took that step." Seeing that Otto didn't say anything, Wang Chen continued to talk to himself.

"The Saint saved the man in the abyss... But how could a man in the abyss be saved by anyone else... No matter who it is, even the Saint, all they can do is give him a hand, but they cannot really save him. The only one who can save him from the abyss is himself."

"Himself?" Otto murmured.

"Yes, he himself... Only when he musters up the courage and is willing to step towards the hand that the Saint extends to him, can he truly escape from the abyss. Isn't that what happened later? He and the Saint escaped from that corrupt and sinful place together. They completely sealed and buried the root of the sin."

"So... Bishop Otto, I'm a little curious, if you were that young man, what would you do and what choice would you make when you returned to the beginning of the story?" Wang Chen asked slowly.

Chapter 53: History Teacher Yang

Father Otto... an Otto who has taken a completely different path from the current Bishop of Heaven's Destiny. His experiences, his choices, his ending... are like a mirror, reflecting the present Otto Apokalis.

Father Otto did not choose to be a coward, but finally took that step bravely and walked towards the saint in his heart. Compared with reality, Father Otto chose to believe in and embrace ideals. There is no doubt that he inherited the will and spirit from the saint. And passed this will and spirit to the next generation.

This was undoubtedly the best choice and outcome that Otto had ever imagined, and it was also the choice he most regretted not making 500 years ago.

After hearing Wang Chen's question, his memory inadvertently went back to that moment 500 years ago. He watched his cowardly self fail to take that step, and in the end, only "her" left in disappointment and he himself was trapped in the dark ending of sin and unable to extricate himself.

"It's a good story indeed." Otto finally regained consciousness and said these words calmly.

"Since the story satisfies the bishop, I can accept the bishop's gift with peace of mind. Then, allow the two of us to deal with important matters." Wang Chen said.

"..." Otto just nodded slightly without saying anything extra. It seemed that he no longer had the mood to continue the conversation.

Just as Wang Chen and [Qiana] were about to leave the office, Otto's voice suddenly came again: "Wait a moment."

The two turned around and looked at Otto.

"What kind of words did the saint... and that man pass on when they were dying?" Otto asked slowly.

"That was the man who asked the Saint questions when she was dying, and the Saint answered him." Wang Chen said.

"The man asked the saint if he regretted making such a choice. The saint said: 'A person will experience three growths in his life. The first time is to understand the right and wrong of things. The second time is to understand that some things are not just right or wrong. The third time is to understand that some things are not right or wrong, but still firmly do what you believe in and take responsibility for it.'"

"Bishop Otto...there's no need to say much about the first two times, but this third time...did you do it?" After Wang Chen finished speaking, he ignored Otto and walked out of the room with [Kiana].

Otto ignored the other party's rude departure and the sarcasm before leaving. He turned off the screen. He sat alone in a chair, closed his eyes and thought, and finally just uttered slowly: "It's like what she would say."

"Haha, it has come to this. You hypocritical and despicable guy, you won't be moved by a few words from the other party at this moment, right?" A mocking voice sounded in Otto's mind.

"Haha, don't be so anxious to mock me, Xukong Wanzang." Otto just smiled contemptuously, and then said, "It's just that it's been a long time since I have been able to communicate with an outsider so openly like now. I have a feeling that he and I will become good friends."

"Like Joyce?" Xukong Wanzang mocked without hesitation.

"Hey, maybe, he can really become the next Joyce... Oh no... maybe it's even better. After all... at least he is the Bishop of Heaven's Destiny, right? Hahaha..." Otto chuckled twice and said, "Let me see how many surprises this outsider named Wang Chen can bring me."

……

"Captain, you look very happy." After coming out, [Kiana] looked at Wang Chen who was humming a little tune and said with a smile.

"That's right... I was held on the head by that guy and scolded him for a long time before, and this time it's finally my turn to teach him a lesson. Humph, look at him, he is no longer the majestic and controlling bishop before. Old Yang's story is still very good. He is worthy of being an old rival. He really knows how to disgust each other." Wang Chen said after letting out a breath.

"Well, I don't think that guy is that disgusting."

"There's no way. Do you expect that with just a few words you can break down the defense of an old monster who has lived for 500 years and has a mind of 500 years? It's impossible. She's not Theresa." Wang Chen said arrogantly.

"What's wrong? What happened to Theresa?" A voice that sounded unhappy came from the side.

"Ah, Principal Theresa, you are here." Wang Chen turned his head and saw Theresa staring at him and Kiana with an unhappy look.

"You... forget it. Can you tell me what grandpa said to you?" Theresa took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked.

"Where is Xiaoqi?" Wang Chen looked around and didn't see Qiana, so he asked.

"Xiaoqi, I asked a reliable class monitor to take her to eat delicious food. After all, I'm worried that grandpa might have said something bad to Xiaoqi." Theresa said slowly.

"That's not the case..." Wang Chen couldn't help but complain. What was just said was all about his and Kiana's identities, as well as the cooperation with Otto.

"So, what did Grandpa say?" Theresa asked.

"It's mainly about assigning tasks and matters... In fact, we also made a deal with Otto." Wang Chen said.

"Trade? What did you trade?"

"We are allowed to keep this secret, but what I can tell you, Theresa, is that as a condition of the deal that Otto made with us, regarding the collapse of Changkong City, he will send the Destiny Force to support us when we need it. This is his promise to us... although I don't know if he will really fulfill it." Wang Chen complained.

"Really? [Kiana]?" Theresa confirmed with [Kiana].

Kiana nodded, confirming Wang Chen's statement. So Theresa thought for a moment, patted her chest, and said, "Don't worry. Since Grandpa has asked for it, he can't deny it. I will go to him to ask for it myself."

"In that case, what's the next arrangement?" Wang Chen asked.

"...Now I have arranged for Ji Zi to go to Changkong City to stand by, and I will bring reliable personnel with me later. But now my grandfather will not intervene in this matter for the first time... If we want to conquer the anti-entropy by ourselves, I am afraid we have to make a careful plan. After we arrive at the base, we will specify the battle plan in detail, and I also ask the two of you to provide detailed information, please." Theresa said slowly.

"Oh, then you go find Xiaoqi first. I have some private matters to attend to. Theresa, can you tell me where your history teacher lives here?" Wang Chen asked.
