"She...left?"

Looking around, the Jackal found that he had not seen how the Fourth Herrscher disappeared.

"That should be the case, but our plan has been discovered by the Valkyrie of Destiny, and we have wasted a lot of time on the Fourth Herrscher, so what are you going to do?"

After confirming that the Fourth Herrscher was really gone, Raven began to think about what to do next, which was very important to them.

"Don't worry about that. I have just ordered the mecha troops to hunt down those Valkyries, and I have cut off the communication here. We still have time before Tianming arrives."

-------------------------------------

Somewhere in a basement.

"No, the communications here have been blocked. We have no way to get in touch with the outside world."

After many attempts, Einstein said this somewhat helplessly.

Because the Hyperion is currently still at the Anti-Entropy base to recharge the Moonlight Throne, they came to Sky City through other means of transportation. In other words, the best way for them to leave here is to let Walter send someone to drive the Hyperion here to pick them up.

Otherwise, they would have to leave Sky City on foot, which was too dangerous for their large numbers, after all, there were World Serpents everywhere outside.

However, even if they cannot leave Sky City for the time being, they have to stop the World Serpent's plan.

"Ah~ I feel it, it's that ominous aura, she's here again, I'll go check it out—"

Suddenly feeling an ominous aura, Jiuxiao immediately went to check the situation after saying these words.

"Eh? It's you again. By the way, do you have ice cream? If you do, it's okay if you want Wendy to help you~"

110~ But I want to try it first before deciding whether to help you~ Two in one

Sky City.

An abandoned building somewhere.

Shila-

Shila-

Still no use, it seems those guys have blocked the signal of this city, damn...

Reluctantly putting down the communicator in her hand, Rita turned and left the old stairs and returned to the dark room. Now she and the remaining members of the team were hiding in an abandoned building in Sky City.

After making sure she was temporarily safe, Rita wanted to contact the Savior Headquarters for support, but she couldn't get through at all. Rita had no choice but to give up contacting them and find other ways.

"Alvette, how is everyone doing?"

Before returning to the dark room, Rita saw the technician of the third team, Alvette.

This girl is very capable, and she has been taking care of the wounded since just now, so Rita has a deep impression of her.

"Ah... Vice Captain, don't worry. Everyone is in a relatively stable condition now. However, the strange gas is still affecting everyone. Many people are unable to display their original strength."

Not expecting the deputy captain to ask her this question, Alvette was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and answered the deputy captain's question quickly.

"Well, and you can just call me Rita. Thank you for your hard work, Alvette—"

Rita breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that the team members were in stable condition.

However, she also knew that they behaved like this because she failed to discover the abnormality of Shencheng Pharmaceutical in advance. Generally speaking, she had an unshirkable responsibility in this matter.

But...what is the purpose of Shencheng Pharmaceuticals? Human experiments?

Thinking back to what Lady Theresa had just said to her, Rita couldn't help but frown. She still didn't know what Shencheng Pharmaceutical was doing.

"This is what I should do, Miss... Rita... You don't have to..."

"Alvette——"

"Yes!"

Suddenly realizing that Miss Rita was looking at her seriously, Alvette couldn't help but straighten her back and her whole body was highly concentrated.

She knew that Miss Rita must have something important to tell her.

"Take good care of everyone. I have to go out for a while. If you need anything, please contact me. If you can contact me——"

"Yes! I will...Wait, Miss Rita, it's very dangerous outside now, you are alone..."

"I know it's dangerous, but if I had discovered their tricks in advance, you wouldn't be in this situation. So next I will go alone to seek help from Lady Theresa. They must still be in this city. Although we just attacked her and her friends, I believe she will help us."

Knowing what Alvette was going to say, Rita told her her thoughts.

She knew that the current team members were seriously lacking in combat effectiveness due to the influence of the strange gas, and it was impossible for them to go out and fight those robots, so their best option now was to hold on and wait for help, while waiting for their strength to recover, they also waited for rescue from the headquarters. She believed that the headquarters would soon discover that they had lost contact and would send reinforcements immediately.

But in this case, the initiative will not be in their hands, and it will be troublesome if they are discovered in advance. In addition, Theresa and her friends are likely to still stay in this city, so Rita decided to go out alone to seek Theresa's help, and also investigate what Shencheng Medicine is doing.

Under such circumstances, she believed that Lady Theresa would temporarily put aside their previous grudges and cooperate with her.

"I understand, Miss Rita. I will definitely protect everyone. You have to be careful too."

"Then I'll leave it to you—"

After saying that, Rita disappeared into the dark night.

-------------------------------------

"Ice...ice cream?"

Jiuxiao thought the Herrscher would say something like "surrender to me and I will spare your life." She was ready to fight back, but the Herrscher who appeared in front of her actually asked her if she had ice cream and even offered to help them if she did.

What the hell is she doing?!

Oh~ I understand. This Herrscher must have seen Lord Jiuxiao here and was unable to take action, so she wanted to use this opportunity to lower Lord Jiuxiao's vigilance. We must not let her succeed!

Without giving it much thought, Jiuxiao had already figured it out, with an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face.

But...she really had an ice cream in her hand...

Suddenly, Jiuxiao discovered that the Herrscher was indeed holding an almost finished ice cream in his hand, and she was confused again.

"The Fourth Herrscher?!"

At this time, Theresa's extremely surprised voice came from behind Jiuxiao.

"Jiuxiao, be careful, she is not an ordinary Herrscher."

Before Jiuxiao could say anything, Theresa had already walked in front of her with Judas.

This is terrible. I happened to meet the Fourth Herrscher at this time. Could it be that she is here to find Kiana? !

Theresa's face was extremely solemn at this moment. She knew very well that they had no way to deal with the Fourth Herrscher, but they absolutely could not lose Kiana again.

How to do?How to do?

Faced with the sudden appearance of the Fourth Herrscher, Theresa couldn't think of any good solution for a while.

The World Serpent was already enough of a headache for them, and adding an unprecedentedly powerful Fourth Herrscher would be adding insult to injury.

"Do you have ice cream? If not, Wendy won't help you."

Seeing the two humans standing there without saying anything, Wendy became a little impatient. If it weren't for the ice cream, she wouldn't be interested in paying so much attention to those humans.

Ice...ice cream? Help us? What is she talking about?

For a moment, Theresa suspected that she had heard wrongly.

But what exactly does the Fourth Herrscher mean by these words?

The meaning of these words is very obvious and easy to understand, but it is completely different when they are spoken by the Fourth Herrscher.

Could it be that the Fourth Herrscher chose to help them simply for the ice cream? This was too absurd, and only a ghost would believe it.

Huh? What she was holding in her hand was... ice cream? She actually...ate it?!

Just as Theresa was struggling to figure out what the Fourth Herrscher meant, she suddenly saw the ice cream in the Fourth Herrscher's hand, and even saw the Fourth Herrscher actually eating the ice cream.

How is this going?

By the way, when we were in Canghai City, she asked me where she could buy ice cream...

At this moment, Theresa recalled the scene when she first met the Fourth Herrscher in Canghai City.

At that time, when the Fourth Herrscher saw her appear, he threw the Valkyrie in his hand aside and asked her where he could buy ice cream.

This was originally a very strange behavior, but because Theresa was too angry at the time, and she subconsciously thought that the Fourth Herrscher was mocking her, she did not take it seriously.

But now it seems that this is not the case. Does the Fourth Herrscher really like ice cream?!

"Theresa, Theresa! You have to be careful. These are whispers from the devil. They often use such means to lower our vigilance. But you don't have to be afraid. Lord Jiuxiao is the savior who can save everything. He will not be deceived by the Herrscher. The same is true for you with Lord Jiuxiao's help."

Noticing that Theresa looked a little strange, Jiuxiao immediately stretched out his hands, placed them on her shoulders and shook them vigorously.

Theresa: "..."

"Jiuxiao, please stop for a moment. I want to talk to this Herrscher...Miss."

Speechlessly taking Jiuxiao's hand off her shoulder, Theresa decided to try to communicate with the Fourth Herrscher.

She was very clear about the power comparison between the two sides. There was no need for the Fourth Herrscher to deceive them as Jiuxiao said, and there was no need at all. Therefore, communicating with the Fourth Herrscher was their best choice at the moment, even if she thought it was nonsense.

After all, given the current situation, having one more helper would be very beneficial to them, not to mention that this helper's strength far exceeds theirs, and they are not qualified to negotiate with him. So no matter what, it is very profitable for them to communicate with the Fourth Herrscher.

"Ms. Herrscher, your..."

"I said my name is Wendy, not Ms. Herrscher~"

Wendy seemed very dissatisfied with Theresa's address to her. She was really fed up with humans calling her that.

"Well, Miss Wendy, you can call me Theresa, so what you just said is... um... if we have ice cream... you... will help us?"

In fact, Theresa herself thought this was nonsense, but she heard it very clearly. This was obviously what the Fourth Herrscher meant, so she asked hesitantly.

"Yes, as long as you give me ice cream, I can help you. There is no ice cream anywhere here. It's so troublesome."

At the end of her words, Wendy's tone sounded a little unhappy.

Originally, she was having a good time wandering around the city, as there was ice cream and lots of movies. But as she wandered around, not only did the number of humans decrease, but even the ice cream and movies gradually became less and less, until they disappeared. This made Wendy feel very confused, and she had no idea what was going on.

However, she soon met the humans she had seen before, so she wanted them to help her look for it. After all, she was willing to help the weak humans.

She actually...really wants to eat ice cream...this is...so weird...

After hearing what Wendy said, Theresa was confused but she didn't show it.

But how do I get her ice cream? Out in the store? But she also said she couldn't find ice cream...

After making sure that Wendy really wanted to eat ice cream, Theresa began to think about how to better make ice cream for her.

"Deli..."

The rest of the words stopped in his mouth after he saw the fourth Herrscher. Einstein did not expect that there was a Herrscher sitting in the room above the basement.

What's going on? What are Theresa and the others doing?

"Wendy, wait a minute. I want to tell my friend something. Einstein, I want to ask you something. Can you make ice cream?"

Before Einstein could say anything, Theresa turned around and asked her.

"...It's relatively simple if you have the raw materials."

Although he didn't know why Theresa asked him this question in front of the Fourth Herrscher, Einstein still answered her question.

"That's good. Let me tell you, Miss Wendy wants to eat ice cream, so we have to get her some. Of course, it would be better if we can get some from the mall. If not, please make some for her. She will also help us."

Einstein: “???”

For a moment, Einstein's mind was filled with all kinds of questions. She even thought that she must have heard it wrong or was simply dreaming.

The Herrscher wanted to eat ice cream? And chose to help them just for this? What the hell?

For Einstein, this was no different from Otto going to Yang and saying he could help reverse entropy just to get him something to eat, as long as Yang could get him something to eat.

This is outrageous—

"Einstein? Einstein!"

"Ah... I'm here, I'm here..."

"Are you OK?"

Theresa found that Dr. Einstein was a little dazed and didn't know what she was thinking. She was very worried about her.

“Is your cooking as good as the ones in the store?”

When it comes to ice cream, Wendy still prefers the ones sold in human shopping malls. As for the ice cream made by this human named Einstein, she is still very skeptical.

"The ice cream sold in those stores often adds various additives for taste and cost saving. Maybe the eggs and milk are not fresh. But if I make it, these problems will not exist."
