K424 of the Collapse World

She shouted loudly and walked into the room. Seeing this, the silver-haired girl standing behind her hesitated for a moment, then followed her in.

"Welcome back, Claire."

At this time, the brown-haired girl sitting in the living room waved at Claire with a smile, and at the same time looked at another petite figure with a puzzled look.

"Claire, she is...?"

"I want to introduce you to a new partner~ Eh? Lillian, where is everyone?"

Claire looked around, but only saw Lillian in the room, and couldn't help feeling confused.

"Ah...Rin and Sora, they went to the training grounds, and Elena is in the back room adjusting her..."

——Clang

As Lillian was speaking, a door in the room suddenly opened and a girl with short blue hair walked out. She was the Elena that Lillian mentioned, the girl that Claire brought back from the Ukrainian village.

"Captain Claire, you're back..."

She greeted lightly. Just now, after Elena finished debugging the robotic arm on her right hand, she heard the noise outside the door and walked out directly.

"You just mentioned a new partner, who is it?"

Halfway through her words, she suddenly turned her gaze to Claire's side, her astonished eyes fixed on the girl with silver waist-length hair, unable to move away...

"You are... Lan Feng?!"

100 battles

Destiny Headquarters, Valkyrie Accommodation Area...

"Sora, have you finished placing the communication blocking equipment?"

In the activity room of the "Reverse Teeth" team, Claire stood in the middle of the room and asked a shorter black-haired girl.

"That's all right, Captain Claire! But... I don't think anyone would eavesdrop on our conversation..."

"It's always right to be cautious. After all, what we are discussing now involves the secrets of the Destiny Organization."

Claire said calmly, looking around. The four members except herself were already gathered in the room.

"So, what do you think about what I just told you, Elena..."

Claire closed her eyes and exhaled, then asked the blue-haired girl who was sitting next to her with her head down.

"No, I don't believe it! Unless you can show me the evidence,

How can I know if you are working together to deceive me? Lan Feng... I really feel sorry for her, so I will do my best to save her! No one can stop me!"

Elena said grimly in response to Claire's question, glancing at her companions with suspicion.

Before that, Claire gathered the members of the Reverse Tooth Team and announced the next day's ruins investigation mission. After making preparations in this regard, she explained the so-called K-series experimental subjects to Elena in detail in front of everyone.

However, the stubborn blue-haired girl still didn't believe Claire's words. In desperation, Claire asked Sora, a member of the team who was good at mechanics, to turn on the shielding device to prevent what she and others said next from being leaked.

"Oh my... I knew it. Even if I said that, the result would definitely be like this..."

Claire covered her face and sighed, but she didn't look depressed. She had explained the whole thing very clearly. Combined with the time analysis, after the escape of the experimental subject K424, it was enough to reach the territory of Ukraine in such a long time, so the silver-haired girl that Elena met at that time must be K424. However, these confidential matters could not find evidence. Therefore, Elena still said that she did not believe it and believed that K-0 was Lan Feng who met her in the village.

"Elena."

At this time, the lavender-haired girl sitting in the chair next to her stood up and walked gently to Elena's side.

"Elena... are you really sure? She... K-0 is your old friend?"

"Lin, no matter what I say now or what you say, there is no evidence. So, I would rather believe that she is Lan Feng! Sorry everyone... I may have been a little impulsive just now."

Elena raised her head and looked at Lin standing in front of her, she said calmly that her emotions had stabilized and she apologized for her previous behavior.

"It's nothing. We are all partners who have fought together. We can understand you."

Lin said with a smile, she reached out and gently lifted the hair in front of Elena's forehead, revealing her beautiful orange eyes.

"So, I hope you can trust us, after all, we are all friends..."

"But, Lan Feng..."

Elena's face was a little pale. She turned her head and looked at a petite figure sitting silently in the corner, her eyes full of struggle.

"Um...you seem to have misunderstood, Sister Elena..."

At this time, Sora, whose figure was almost the same as the silver-haired girl, walked forward and stood next to Elena.

"Captain Claire didn't force you to accept her statement. She just stated the facts. The rest is up to you to judge. After all, even if you still think that K-0 is that... um... Lan Feng, it doesn't matter, because we all like her very much. If you can love her more because of this, I will be very happy too..."

As he spoke, Sora turned his head and looked at the silver-haired girl in a white dress who was sitting quietly in the corner of the room.

"No matter how you look at it, it feels... so cute!"

As she spoke, she walked over and gently held the girl in her arms.

"Ms. Sora...?"

The silver-haired girl tilted her head in confusion at her action, not quite understanding why Sora suddenly did this.

The girl did feel a little confused. Although everyone here was very nice to her, what she didn't understand was why everyone liked to hug her and rub against her.

However, the girl did not hate this feeling. On the contrary, when she was hugged, she felt very warm...

(But... As expected, Elena called me 'Lan Feng', but maybe she recognized the wrong person...)

Thinking of this, even though it was obviously a matter of course, she couldn't help but feel a slight sense of loss in her heart.

However, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she recalled her first encounter with these people not long ago.

(Really... everyone here is a very nice person...)

No one minded her identity as an experimental subject, and these Valkyries treated her very carefully and kindly.

Although she had only joined their team temporarily because of the mission, the girl suddenly realized that she wanted to stay here and stay with them forever...

(It seems... there is no need to be so anxious. If we can keep it like this for a while, maybe it will be good...)

At this time, Lin also came over, looked at the silver-haired girl who was lost in thought gently, leaned down, and gently lifted her cheeks with both hands.

"Don't worry. Although we don't know your past, you are our partner now. Let's get along well..."

As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly, touching her forehead with the silver-haired girl, and separated in an instant. Lin looked at the surprised girl with a warm smile on her face.

"By the way, from what Claire said, your name seems to be 'Lin'... This is a little difficult, how should I call you?"

"

…Just call me K-0, Miss Lin.”

The girl hesitated for a moment, then spoke softly. Even though she received the kindness from others, she still felt a little embarrassed.

"Um……"

Lin frowned in distress, thinking about something while casually adjusting the pigtails on the back of the girl's head, with a hint of envy in her eyes. Lin's hair was only a little below her shoulders, and before she grew her hair longer, she had no chance to braid her hair like this.

"This is just an experimental code name... It's a bit awkward to say it, what do you think, Claire?"

Lillian, who was sitting on a chair, suddenly spoke up, then turned to Claire and asked her. However, Claire was at a loss for words regarding this question.

"About this... let's talk about it later. The most important thing now is to prepare for tomorrow's mission. Elena, are you okay now?"

"Um……"

Elena said softly, but the next moment, she suddenly remembered something and turned her eyes to the silver-haired girl not far away.

"Um...Lan Feng, I..."

"No... I'm probably not the person you're talking about. I'm just an experimental subject of the Destiny organization. Two years ago, I never left the Destiny headquarters, so..."

"But this could also be a false memory they instilled in you, right, Lan Feng?"

Facing the silver-haired girl's denial, Elena just shook her head and said this. She still couldn't believe that there were two people in the world who were so similar.

At this point, the situation became awkward again.

"Cough cough..."

Claire coughed twice, and when other people looked at her, she stood up.

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. Elena, it's your business what you want to think. Anyway, K-0 is now a new member of our team. Let's not talk about that for now. The mission will be tomorrow, and time is a little tight. We are now..."

——Beep, beep, beep…!

Suddenly, Claire's words were interrupted by a burst of urgent communication prompts. When the Valkyrie communication terminal would make such a sound, it was usually an urgent notice from the superior.

"Claire..."

At this time, Lin, the deputy captain, looked at Claire seriously with a questioning look in her eyes.

"Ah... This is a communication from Colonel Claudia. It should be about this mission..."

Claire's expression also became solemn. She started the terminal's operating page and pressed an exclamation mark that kept flashing at the bottom of the screen. The emergency notice from the headquarters appeared in front of her.

Claire glanced at the communication information, and the next moment, her face was instantly filled with astonishment!

"What! The mission time is advanced...? Because we found traces of the Anti-Entropy Force in Turkey, and the higher-ups speculate that Anti-Entropy has the same goal as us... So they want us to gather at the headquarters now?!"

100 Battles >>

Claire stared at the information displayed on the light screen with wide eyes, and when she saw the end, she screamed out loud.

"What a joke! The mission was just released this morning, and it's only afternoon now... Don't you have any time to prepare?"

Lillian, who was standing next to her, stood up immediately, her emotions a little out of control, but she soon calmed down. She also understood that shouting and yelling would not solve any problems.

"Ah...what should I do..."

"…We can't help it. This is an unexpected emergency. The people above are probably having a headache… Anyway, everyone, hurry back to your dormitories and pack your equipment! K-0's application for battle has been approved. We'll meet at the helipad at headquarters in thirty minutes!"

Seeing Claire panicking but trying to stay calm, Lin issued the order on her behalf. Originally, Claire, who was not very strict, was not suitable for the position of team leader. However, the only Valkyries with command power on the scene were Claire and Lin, who were A-level Valkyries. Since Lin joined later, the position of team leader fell on Claire. But in fact, many affairs in the team were handled by Lin, the deputy captain.

As Lin finished her speech, Claire took a deep breath and returned to her previous state.

"Well, that's it. Lin is right! All right, let's get started! Since our team was founded, we have maintained a 100% mission completion rate, and it has been nearly a year now! This time, we must keep up this record!"

"Yes!"×4

Following Claire's last words, the members of the Valkyrie team responded confidently and immediately left the room to organize their weapons. Soon, the silver-haired girl was the only one left.

"Ruins search... I wonder if Miss Lucy will be the commander of this mission?"

The girl muttered to herself, walked out of the room, and looked into the distance silently. The tall church tower in the central area of ​​the headquarters came into view. However, when she saw this beautiful building, she felt inexplicably irritated.

(If I can escape from Otto's control, should I destroy all of this...)

She shook her head, dispelling these

With a strange idea in mind, he began to run towards the center of the headquarters. His own weapons were at the Saint 7308 Research Institute. If he didn't hurry up, it might be too late...

(After all, this is the mission of the Valkyrie...)

Asia, Unknown Regions...

In the sky, which is invisible to the naked eye, above the clouds filled with red clouds, there is a light blue-black warship flying slowly towards a place.

A horizontal S logo resembling the "infinity" symbol was painted on the front of the battleship. The heavy armor plates were arranged in the shape of scales, and the surface of the armor reflected a strange colorful luster in the sunset.

This is obviously the battleship of the Anti-Entropy Organization.

This is the smallest model of the Anti-Entropy Battleship. Although it is a battleship, it can actually only be regarded as a larger aircraft.

At this time, in the rear cabin, there were two rows of Anti-Entropy members who looked like agents. Since Anti-Entropy was a powerful international organization, these members had different races and skin colors, genders were both male and female, and the combat uniforms they wore were not uniform.

But even so, it doesn't look loose and messy, because these people have one thing in common...

They all carry a murderous aura and strict military discipline!

Obviously, they are all elite agents. Because of this operation, Tesla transferred them from various Anti-Entropy units to form this unit. Therefore, their clothes are different.

There is no doubt that these agents are not weak in terms of their temperament. This is indeed the case. Whether it is Titan driving or conventional combat, they can be compared to real special forces in the army! Now, they are sitting here quietly, gathering their strength for the next action.

Therefore, the cabin should have been silent, but there was an exception among these people...

"So~~Tesla, you won't participate in this operation?"

A gentle voice came from the rear end of the aircraft. On the seat at the end of the cabin, a silver-haired girl wearing a black combat uniform and a coat on the outside rested her chin with one hand, leaning lazily against the backrest of the seat, slumping her petite body on the seat, chatting casually with a red-haired girl in the video through the communicator.

It must be said that the girl's undisciplined appearance was in stark contrast to the others present. Although most of the agents in the cabin turned a blind eye to this, there were still a few who cast curious glances over there.

These agents gathered here for a mission, and they didn't know much about the others. Therefore, although many people pretended to be calm on the surface, they were already full of curiosity about the girl who was acting with them. They only knew that this girl was the adjutant of a certain executor and the leader of this mission.

Shirley North.
