The collapse started when Kiana came to the door

He knew that even if he stayed here, he would not be able to get anything that would help improve the current situation. Because of the matter with Yulandel, Theresa's trust in him had already fallen to the bottom, not to mention the people of Anti-Entropy. It was no exaggeration to say that the relationship between them and him was a deep hatred.

Among all the people present, it was Li Shubai, who was chosen by the Herrscher of the Void, Sirin...who did not seem to resist Otto as much as he had originally expected.

Li Shubai gave Otto a very strange feeling. He originally thought that even if the degree of hatred he had for him was not as high as that of Anti-Entropy and the others, this young man who had kidnapped both Yulandel and Rita should also hate him very much.

However, after actually meeting, Otto found that his judgment seemed to be somewhat biased.

Li Shubai was indeed quite wary of him, but from the look in Li Shubai's eyes, Otto did not see much disgust or hatred. Instead, to some extent, there was a kind of admiration similar to that of Yulandel in the past, as if he saw a teacher.

Otto's IQ was so extraordinary that he barely spent any time to deduce the most likely scenario from the recent series of events.

The long-haired Rita who suddenly appeared; Silin who could control her abilities freely and did not seem to pose much threat to humans; and Yulandel who recovered her memory for unknown reasons and fully awakened the stigma of Kaslana.

In addition, the long-haired Rita and Li Shubai had some subtle attitudes towards him.

So...it is very likely that these people understand me better than I thought.

Why do they know me better? Of course, it's because they know me, but in Otto's memory, he can be sure that a week ago, he definitely didn't know this long-haired Rita and Li Shubai.

What they knew was another "Otto Apokalis" who was not themselves.

Although he quickly deduced a possibility that was quite close to the truth, after carefully weighing the pros and cons, Otto did not use this possibility to further gain benefits, but simply chose to temporarily withdraw.

Of course, he couldn't choose to give up.

It was just a temporary retreat. For Otto, who had been waiting for five hundred years, it was no big deal.

Moreover, Li Shubai is definitely not a person without any flaws.

Amid the sound of footsteps echoing underground, no one noticed that Otto, who had his back to the crowd, had a calm and composed smile on his face.

Otto realized that, in a sense, Li Shubai was the same person as himself.

Now they all have outstanding personal abilities and must have many people supporting them.

But in the past… before things became like this, Li Shubai and Otto both had things they had not done, and both had regrets that they wanted to make up for even if they tried their best.

As long as he has desires, things he wants to do, and regrets he wants to make up for, Otto has the confidence... to break through Li Shubai's psychological defenses, and then... to make him stand on the same front with him.

Of course, now is not the time for a showdown.

My understanding of Li Shubai was still too vague. Not only that, he did not have enough chips in his hands...after losing Yulandel and Rita, to change the situation.

Next time...next time we meet, there won't be anyone else present.

Otto understood that he had to create an environment for one-on-one communication with Li Shubai in order to slightly change the current unfavorable situation.

As Otto turned to extreme thinking, his back gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

After Otto left the underground, the three people from Anti-Entropy remained silent.

Cocolia looked at Li Shubai with a complicated expression. After noticing Cocolia's gaze, Walter Young and Einstein looked at each other and nodded slightly to each other.

At this moment, Theresa suddenly spoke.

"You three." She walked in front of Walter Yang, glanced at Cocolia and Einstein, raised her arms and folded them over her chest, and asked in a cold voice: "Although I have helped you temporarily get rid of Grandpa's hands, but... you should also understand that I can't let you go so easily, right?"

After hearing Theresa's somewhat inhumane words, Walter Yang couldn't help but show a complicated expression, while Einstein sighed softly.

"Explaining the situation simply with words may sound a little thin..." As if knowing that what he was going to say next was exactly the same as what he had said, Einstein rubbed his brows with a headache.

The leader hiding in the dark was easily caught by the other side, and the chips originally prepared were hidden somewhere unknown by Otto.

Even Einstein himself felt that there was not much hope for negotiations with Theresa. If he put himself in Theresa's shoes, there was not much chance that he would be convinced.

But for their personal safety, Einstein mustered up his courage and said calmly and helplessly: "Ms. Theresa, please believe us, Anti-Entropy has no hostility towards you."

"Yeah, I know." Theresa nodded.

"...?"

Seeing Theresa's reaction without any hesitation, the three members of Anti-Entropy all looked stunned at the same time.

"Uh..." Theresa's decisive response made Einstein, who was racking his brains to think of how to convince the other party, feel like he was punching cotton. She pondered for a moment and asked hesitantly, "So... what do you mean?"

"You don't have to keep testing me, Dr. Einstein." Theresa said, "I know why you came here. After seeing the scene where Grandpa caught you, I can probably guess that there are some things here that you originally wanted me to see, right?"

Einstein did not respond to Theresa's words immediately, but silently glanced at Walter Yang who was covering his face, thinking, is this the president of St. Freya's College whose IQ you once commented was a bit regrettable?

Who is to blame for being seen through to this extent?

Feeling the pressure, Einstein felt a stomachache. Negotiating with an opponent with a huge intelligence gap was really too exhausting for brain cells and energy. However, in order to help Anti-Entropy gain as many favorable conditions as possible, Lao Einstein still nodded and said, "Yes, from the beginning, we came here with great effort just to create conditions for a good talk with you."

"What do you want?" Theresa said calmly. She pouted in Kiana's direction. "As you can see, Kiana has reached a reconciliation with the Herrscher consciousness in her body. If you come to negotiate with me about her affairs, it seems a bit unnecessary."

“……” Einstein was speechless.

"And that's not all." Theresa suddenly showed a subtle smile on her face. "As far as I know, that bastard Siegfried should be with you, right?"

After hearing Siegfried's name, Walter Yang couldn't help but stand up. He first glanced at Kiana, who remained calm, and then at Sirin, who also remained calm. After making sure that the two Herrschers of the Void did not have any extreme reactions to the name, he spoke carefully, "Um, Principal Theresa, about Siegfried..."

"Shut up!" Theresa glared at Walter Yang and interrupted him abruptly, "As the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, you actually sneaked into the girls' school. I haven't settled the score with you yet."

Walter Yang was choked and was speechless, looking a little embarrassed.

"Anyway, after what happened tonight is over, you guys go and talk it out with Siegfried," Theresa said. "If he still wants to see his biological daughters, then get out of here right away. You guys can judge for yourself. What kind of father is he to leave both of his daughters here without saying a word?"

"......???" Siegfried's biological daughter? She's still alive? Walter Yang was stunned, and then he suddenly felt Einstein tugging at the corner of his clothes, and he turned his head subconsciously.

"You haven't been back to the Ark Fortress, so you don't know. Some time ago, Raiden Old Horse and Siegfried learned about Siegfried's biological daughter from Cocolia's daughter." Einstein leaned close to Walter Yang's ear and whispered, "Siegfried's biological daughter, the former Kiana Kaslana, is indeed still alive. It's just that at that time, Cocolia's daughter did not tell Siegfried about his daughter's current situation."

"Why did Cocolia's daughter tell him?" Walter Yang said in confusion. What on earth had happened during the time he was not in Anti-Entropy? Why did it feel like the whole world had changed in just a few days?

"As for this question." Einstein looked at Li Shubai with a faint smile on his face: "Perhaps, only Captain Li Shubai can answer it, right?"

"Indeed." This time, even Cocolia couldn't help but speak. She looked at the innocent Li Shubai with a melancholy expression with thousands of thoughts, and suddenly a relieved smile appeared on her face: "I am also curious, what method did you use to kidnap Bronya quietly."

"?" Why did the topic suddenly turn to me? Li Shubai was stunned. Before he could react, he suddenly felt his wrist being tightly grasped by a soft hand.

When he turned around, he saw Xilin looking at him with an unhappy expression.

"Human, how long do you want to stay here? It's time to go back to the dormitory, right?" She said in a tone that sounded a little anxious. "Don't forget, there are conditions for me to lend you my power."

Walter Yang looked at Xilin's irritated expression with a strange look on his face, thinking, could it be that I really guessed it right? Could it be that this man really has captured the Herrscher of the Void?

He thought about it, and said righteously in his heart: If this is the case, for the safety of all mankind, we must do our best to maintain the relationship between this young couple...

With this thought in mind, Walter Yang coughed and snorted, and after focusing everyone's attention on himself, he smiled: "Indeed, it's getting late, otherwise... let's stop here tonight?"

As if he had thought of something, he quickly added, "Of course, Dean Theresa, don't worry, I will definitely not run away suddenly. After all... I still have classes to attend tomorrow."

Chapter 4: The tighter the clothes, the tighter they look (k)

Hearing Walter Yang's helpless words, Xilin raised her eyebrows, and her golden pupils with cross patterns softened a little.

Although she still didn't take this man seriously, at least compared to others, Walter Yang had become much more pleasing to her eyes.

Cocolia was stunned. She turned her head and looked at Einstein, who knew Walter Young better than she did, with an inquiring look, her eyes full of doubt and confusion.

What's going on? Did our Anti-Entropy leader really treat what happened tonight as nothing? Did he want to go back and teach the Valkyries at St. Freya's College tomorrow?

After noticing Cocolia's gaze, Einstein shook his head gently to indicate that he should stay calm.

She did understand Walter Young better than Cocolia. Although Walter Young's personality seemed a little too gentle to Einstein, he had disguised himself as Walter Joyce when he was very young, and had been trying hard to deal with all walks of life and various fools. Einstein knew that Walter Young was by no means a brainless person. The fact that he dared to say such words meant that he was sure that Theresa would accept his words.

Sure enough, just as Cocolia expected, Theresa agreed to Walter Yang's proposal without much hesitation. She raised her young face, looked up at Walter Yang's helpless expression, and snorted disdainfully: "I don't think you dare to run away casually."

Suddenly, Theresa pointed in the direction of Kiana and said, "Kiana, go!"

"Huh?" Because Theresa suddenly called her name, Kiana tilted her head in confusion, with a big question mark above her head, "What's wrong? Why are you calling me all of a sudden?"

"Tsk! Aren't you the Herrscher of the Void? Of course I asked you to leave a space beacon on them!" Theresa said angrily, "He said he won't run away, so are we really going to just ignore him?

"Oh, oh...that's right." Kiana reacted and nodded quickly.

Under the complicated gazes of the Anti-Entropy trio, she ran behind them and left her palm prints on their backs one by one: "That's it!"

"Well, very good." Theresa nodded with satisfaction. "That's all for tonight. By the way, you..."

"Hmm..." Yaezakura, who had never had a chance to interrupt, twitched her fox ears. She glanced around and pointed at her face hesitantly, "Are you calling me?"

"Yes, it's you." Theresa waved to Yaezakura, "Come over and join us. After we finish dealing with Lao Yang and the others, I will help you arrange a place to stay. As for Li Shubai and Xilin...just go back to the dormitory first."

After separating from Yae Sakura, with the help of Xilin, Li Shubai and Lost Rosemary quickly returned to the dormitory.

Of course the lights in the dormitory were on. As soon as I walked out of the space crack opened by Xilin, a rich fragrance hit me in the face.

Mei Raiden, Rita, Bronya and Yulandel sat around the dining table filled with fragrant aroma.

"You guys are back." Raiden Mei turned around and said, "Sorry, we'll start eating first... Hmm? Where's Kiana?"

"Kiana is with Theresa, save her some dinner." Li Shubai looked around the brightly lit house, "Where's Teacher Jizi? Hasn't she come back yet?"

"Ms. Jizi just contacted us and said that she had some work matters to deal with tonight, so she won't be coming back to stay for the time being." Rita said softly.

She raised her head and winked at the other self [Lost Rosemary] standing next to Li Shubai.

Do you want me to help you detain Lady Yulandel as we planned before?

Lost Rosemary secretly glanced at Yulandel and Xilin, who had not noticed Rita's actions at all, pursed her lips, and nodded as if she had made up her mind.

That’s right, I’m sorry to trouble you with Lady Yulandel’s affairs for the time being.

The corners of Rita's mouth rose slightly in an extremely subtle arc. It didn't matter. After all, we were all Rita Rossweisse, and in this kind of competition involving personal feelings, we should help each other.

Lost Rosemary showed a relieved expression. It couldn't be better if you could think this way. That is... the reward after the task is completed?

Rita raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Shubai meaningfully.

Lost Rosemary's expression froze.

Although Yulandel and Celine were in a relaxed state and did not realize that the two Ritas were secretly communicating, Bronya, who was extremely observant, moved her eyes slightly and silently noted down the little movements made by the two charming Ritas.

"Do you have work matters to deal with..." Li Shubai lowered his head, pondered the deep meaning of this statement for a while, and immediately understood it.

It should be around noon when I was informed of the awakening of the natural stigmata, so I needed to undergo a more detailed examination and test of my body.

If this is the case, then it is not difficult to understand why Ji Zi came back late.

In that case, shouldn't I find an opportunity to borrow the training ground of St. Freya College from Theresa? Li Shubai thought, although he could roughly grasp the power he currently possessed, this subjective judgment was ultimately not as objective and realistic as the real numbers.

It would be really funny if we overestimated ourselves and misjudged the difference in power between the enemy and us.

It's decided. When I meet Theresa tomorrow morning, I'll ask her to lend me the training ground of St. Freya's College.

Then, after finishing a dinner that was somewhat peaceful and lonely due to the absence of the noisiest Kiana, the tortuous day came to an end.

Although Li Shubai originally wanted to say this, when he finished taking a shower and returned to his room to prepare for bed, the door was suddenly opened by someone outside, which made him realize that things... seemed far from as simple as he expected.

Standing at the door, Xilin first looked around the room, nodded with satisfaction, and then walked into Li Shubai's bedroom on her own.

Seeing Xilin walking into the room, Li Shubai was stunned for a moment, then he hit his palm.

Yes, I just recently agreed to let Xilin stay with me at night.

And that's not all. Theresa was not here tonight, and because Jizi was told by herself at noon that she had awakened the natural stigmata, she did not return to the dormitory for the time being. Instead, she went to the infirmary of St. Freya College for further physical examination and exercise.

So... unlike last night, there was no problem of insufficient rooms in the dormitory today. Even if Xilin secretly changed her residence, no one else would find out.

The pure white ceiling lamp illuminated Xilin's flowing and noble silver hair, although her attire still looked quite inappropriate... I don't know what kind of strange obsession Xilin had, but since she came to this world, she has been wearing several autumn T-shirts of various colors that she had taken out of Li Shubai's closet.

But it must be said that Xilin's cold and arrogant temperament, coupled with her long silver hair and golden pupils, makes her look like a queen who is high above everyone else, dignified and inviolable no matter what she wears.

As soon as she entered the room, the noble queen in a T-shirt kept looking around as if she wanted to memorize every inch of the room. After a while, Xilin suddenly sneered, "What a boring man. It's obviously your own residence, but you haven't prepared anything?"

"I'm sorry that I'm such a boring man." Li Shubai said helplessly, "So, if our queen finds it disgusting, why not..."

"Who said I disliked it?" Xilin glared at Li Shubai. She rolled up her flowing silver hair, turned her wrist, raised her arm and snapped her fingers. "It's just that, since I'm allowed to move in, such a simple room should have some practical little things added to it."

After Xilin snapped her fingers, several space cracks suddenly appeared in several places in the room.

The next second, the corners of the room, the wall facing the window, and the desk by the window, which were originally empty, were suddenly occupied by various things such as computers, refrigerators, wall-mounted TVs, and game consoles.

Li Shubai was stunned by Xilin's actions.

He thought for a moment and asked, "You came here tonight... to play games with me?"

"Forget it. I haven't done anything except playing games today. My wrists are sore from playing." Xilin shook her hands and looked at Li Shubai with disgust. "...Besides, you've already slept with me. Do you just want to play games?"

"..." Li Shubai was speechless. If you don't want to play games, why did you bring so many equipment here, even a refrigerator... Do you want to live in my room permanently?

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the room.
