I am in the abyss of Collapse

Several Valkyries looked at Luo Lin's face and fell into deep thought.

"Ahahahaha, thank you for your hard work."

The girl quickly changed the subject and raised her glass (which contained water) to express her respect to the Valkyries, who in turn raised their glasses (which contained wine) in response to her in a lively manner, and then immersed themselves in the hot and delicious food.

Luo Lin felt someone walking up behind her. After observing her for a few seconds, the person reached out and patted her on the shoulder.

A familiar voice sounded in her ears: "Hey, I thought I was seeing things just now, but I didn't expect it was really you."

Luo Lin turned her head and called out in surprise: "Captain Ragnar?"

That's right, the person who came was Ragnar Lodbrok, the current captain of the Hyperion. She carried a plate piled with food that almost formed a mountain, and sat down next to Luo Lin without any hesitation.

Several Valkyries around were also very surprised: "Captain!"

"Relax, it's time to rest."

Ragnar smiled and rubbed Luo Lin's head affectionately: "Alas, I didn't have a good chat with you on the Hyperion before, and now I'm completely free..."

Under Luo Lin's embarrassed gaze, a Valkyrie suddenly realized something and hammered her hand: "Aren't you the captain's rumored girlfriend... Oops!"

Ragnar withdrew his hand and glanced around with sharp eyes: "This is my former teammate, don't pass on some weird and messy things."

"Yes~"

The Valkyries responded in unison, but Luo Lin could see that they clearly did not believe Ragnar's words.

His old captain smiled, stretched out his hand again and made a knife-like gesture. The Valkyries sitting nearby booed and left Ragnar's "attack range" with their plates and food.

"It seems like you get along well with them?" Luo Lin asked.

Ragnar's smile became less dangerous, and instead more kind, "Yeah, before, I only dealt with elite soldiers, but now, most of my subordinates are kids who just graduated from the Valkyrie Academy a few years ago... The atmosphere here is great."

"After all, this is the Far East Branch under the leadership of Lady Theresa, so it's normal to take it easy."

Luo Lin picked at her dish with chopsticks and said, "But I heard from people in other branches that they seem to feel that things here are too relaxed. Captain, what do you think?"

"Theresa was indeed a little too lenient at the beginning. I later helped to rectify the discipline... After all, the bishop sent me here to do this job."

Ragnar looked at the little food left in the girl's bowl and pinched her cheek: "Forget it, let's finish eating first and then find a place to talk."

"it is good."

Ten minutes later, Ragnar and Luo Lin found a bench in the square of St. Freya Academy and sat down. The breeze caressed their cheeks.

After a few seconds of silence, Luo Lin took the initiative to ask: "What is the situation in Changkong City?"

"It's completely over. In the subsequent process of cleaning up the Houkai and exploring the environment, we found that Houkai's impact on Changkong City is far greater than we imagined."

Ragnar looked very distressed. She spread her hands and said:

"The shallow surface was severely eroded, and the entire city dropped more than ten meters. Some places even sank dozens of meters. Some places were even flooded by the bubbling groundwater..."

Luo Lin took a breath and said, "Is it so exaggerated? But judging from the strength of the collapse, it can't be considered a big collapse, right?"

"This is why Honkai is called the most serious disaster, Luo Lin. Its impact is so terrible."

Ragnar shook his head and said softly, "What is certain is that all the buildings in Changkong City have become dangerous buildings. There are always many earthquakes in the Far East. Who knows which day or which building will collapse?"

"…Have you checked all the stuff from ME Company?"

"Everything that should be moved has been moved away, and the remaining production equipment has all been destroyed by the Anti-Entropy people themselves... Nothing valuable is left." Ragnar raised his head, his tone was obviously angry, "It's obviously the culprit that caused the disaster in Changkong City..."

"Calm down, calm down..."

Luo Lin laughed dryly and stroked the old captain's back: "Didn't you find anything else unusual?"

"No, I have basically plowed Changkong City from beginning to end, and found nothing except the dead soldiers and the Honkai beasts."

Ragnar looked at the girl with strange eyes: "Why, do you know something else?"

Luo Lin felt a little guilty when she said this: "It's just some local ghost stories and rumors in Changkong City... For example, there's a pink-haired fox-eared witch wandering around, and a huge hidden cherry tree, and so on..."

"Your Intelligence Department is good in every way, except that you tend to get stuck in a rut on this aspect. In most cases, ghost stories are precursors to the collapse."

The old captain said earnestly: "Now that the collapse has ended, what needs to be dealt with has been dealt with. We should save resources for other places... It's best not to waste manpower looking for some weird things."

Luo Lin nodded helplessly: "Yes, I understand."

Ragnar could see that the girl was still a little unwilling, so he sighed and said, "If you are really worried, you can just send dozens or even hundreds of unmanned probes to observe. Tianming has plenty of money anyway."

"really."

"What about you? Luo Lin, how is the mission you hurried back to handle going?" The old captain asked curiously, "Ah, of course, I will act according to my authority. I don't care about what I don't know."

Luo Lin scratched her nose. "Well, you may not believe it, but there are actually Herrschers in Saint Freya. My mission is to appease them..."

"what?!"

----------

Today's struggle is over!

Good night!

Volume 304: Journey to China, I Think It's OK: Chapter Chapter : Intuition is Powerful

"What did you just say?! This place has..."

Ragnar forced herself to hold back the word "Herrser" because her surprised cry had attracted the attention of students walking in the square.

Student A shouted happily, "Master Ragnar is back!"

Of course, some people also noticed Luo Lin beside Ragnar: "Wait, who is next to Lord Ragnar?!"

"He looks familiar. He's been hanging around St. Freya recently..." Student B said, supporting his chin.

"So close! They definitely have a special relationship!" Student A, who spoke first, noticed something was wrong, "She's his girlfriend, right? She's definitely his girlfriend!"

"Shut up, love-brained!" Another Valkyrie student C stabbed her with a knife, and then a handkerchief appeared out of nowhere and bit it in her mouth, "Damn it, why, Lord Ragnar... why not me?"

Do you have a problem?! And why are you shouting so loudly!?

Theoretically, Ragna should also be able to hear the strange words of these students, but she is more concerned about the affairs of the Herrscher right now.

The old captain grabbed Luo Lin's arm, dragged the Valkyrie to his side, and shouted in a low voice: "If I heard correctly, did you add a plural suffix?!"

Luo Lin laughed dryly: "Yes... There are currently three..."

The Herrster of Thunder, the Herrster of Void, and the Herrster of Consciousness.

Ragnar's voice became a little higher, and his blood pressure rose visibly: "Only three of us now?! You still want to play a mahjong table, right?!"

The black-haired girl showed dead fish eyes. Don’t say it, after Bronya becomes the Herrscher of Reason, she can really put together a mahjong table.

The interaction between the two people caused the Valkyries who were originally watching the situation here to become agitated.

Student A: "I seemed to vaguely hear three?"

Student B: "It's so messy, it's so exciting!"

“*……%@&#”

Student C was too emotional so A and B covered his mouth and muted him physically.

Luo Lin glanced at the noisy theater in the distance in silence. She patted Ragnar on the back and whispered, "Captain, don't worry. Lord Otto knows about this..."

"That's right, why wouldn't the Bishop pay attention to the Herrscher..."

Hearing the name of Archbishop of Destiny, Ragna relaxed visibly. She loosened her grip on Luo Lin's shoulders and said, "But Bishop Otto actually chose you to handle this task, which means you have grown a lot in places I don't know about... Have you ever summarized your overall abilities now?"

The black-haired girl carefully chose her words: "I would rate myself as a half-A-level. My combat capability is acceptable, but I am lacking in knowledge."

"Haha, you're very cautious."

The old captain finally found time to glare at the students who were watching from a distance, and the students who were discovered by the real boss dispersed.

Luo Lin looked at the excitement on their faces and had no doubt that the rumors about Ragnar and herself would spread throughout Saint Freya and become enduring topics like "the student with middle school syndrome having an attack in public on the street" and "the principal who reads comics during work hours".

"Come on, take me to see those...um..."

Ragna still found it difficult to pronounce the word "Herrscher". She sighed, "I thought I would feel safer back in Saint Freya, but now it feels like I'm sitting on a powder keg that hasn't exploded... I can't sleep well now."

Luo Lin gladly accepted the order and brought the old captain to the dormitory building.

“They live here now.”

Ragnar looked up and down at the dormitory building and asked hesitantly, "Are you sure you're not taking the wrong path? This place doesn't look like a prison with high-powered anti-Honkai energy..."

Luo Lin blinked: "We didn't say to lock up the Herrscher, did we?"

"..." The old captain almost turned around and left, "So there are no restrictions on Herrschers now? It's all up to self-awareness?"

"...Captain Ragnar, you are here."

Fu Hua emerged from the shadows and greeted Ragnar.

"Fu Hua?"

Of course Ragnar remembered this Valkyrie who often dealt with Otto. She was powerful and decisive... She was definitely an S-rank hiding in the dark.

But can S-class really deal with multiple Herrschers?

The old captain looked subtle, pointed upstairs, and asked, "You are also in charge of the supervision...?"

"Well, the word 'watch over' is not quite correct. It should be 'monitoring' - I don't usually disturb their lives." The Red Kite Immortal nodded, "Luo Lin contributes more in this regard... Since you're here, why don't we go up and take a look together?"

"I think so too……"

Ragnar rubbed her temples. The trust and sense of security that she had originally felt because of the name "Otto Apokalis" quickly disappeared. It was hard for her not to think of a laboratory that had been blown up in Siberia in 2000.

The old captain's mind was already filled with tragic scenes of "the Herrscher losing control and the Far East Land sinking".

"Captain Ragnar?"

Luo Lin's question brought her back to her senses. With a heavy heart, Ragna watched the black-haired girl open the dormitory door. The scene before her made her gasp -

"Mei! I want to eat this!"

"Okay, okay~"

"Mei! I want to eat this!"

"This won't work. This is still a semi-finished product."

A very familiar girl with white hair and pigtails was lying on the shoulder of another girl with long blue-purple hair. The two of them were arguing loudly in the kitchen. The sweet and creamy aroma of baking cookies blew into everyone's noses with the wind.

On the other side of the dormitory, a petite girl with gray spiral hair curled up on the sofa, in front of her was a lit TV screen, from which laughter could be heard from time to time.

But Ragnar found that her attention was not on the show. The gray-haired girl's gaze subtly shifted to the upper right, as if she was looking at something that others could not see.

"Luo Lin, you're back? Fu Hua is here too?"

Kiana heard the sound of the door opening, turned her head and saw a somewhat unfamiliar face.

The white-haired boy was very sensitive to the old captain's majestic aura, and he immediately jumped away from Meiyi as if by reflex, and greeted Ragnar with a correct attitude: "Hello, teacher!"

"Ah, hello...teacher!"

Mei Raiden was processing cookies and didn't have time to wash her hands. She hid her hands behind her back awkwardly and agreed.

Luo Lin glanced at the gray-haired spiral-curled girl on the sofa again. She took advantage of Xier's ability to hide in an "other dimension" and whispered to Xier in public. They were chatting enthusiastically and had no idea someone had come.

"Cough cough!"

The Valkyrie quickly sent a quantum signal to Xier.

Seele was stunned for a moment, then quickly pulled Bronya and asked her to look back.

Bronya then realized that there was someone at the door and quickly stood up to observe the situation.

"Ah, hello, teacher."

"..."

Ragnar originally thought that since there were multiple Herrschers here, the dormitory would be like some terrible devil's cave, or at least there would be things like Honkai energy crystals everywhere.

As a result, the old captain took a closer look and found that this place was actually very normal. It even seemed that the reaction to the Honkai energy was not very high. Instead, it was a scene full of life, and the Herrsers looked very happy.

Luo Lin introduced the two parties: "Let me introduce you. This is my old boss, Ragnar Lodbrok, the former captain of the Valkyrie Charge... This is Kiana Kaslana... Raiden Mei... Bronya Zaychek..."

"…Just call me Ragnar."

The old captain blinked and muttered, "I only sensed two. Could it be that the last one hasn't awakened yet...?"

Luo Lin was in awe of Ragnar's intuition and even wanted to praise him for his vision.
