K424 of the Collapse World

Tesla looked at the crying silver-haired girl and was about to try to comfort her again, but suddenly he remembered the researchers who escaped from the room...

(Oh no…! I need to explain this to them…)

Thinking of this, Tesla immediately wanted to catch up, but the next moment, she suddenly lost her temper.

It seems that... I don’t have anything to explain?

Tesla fell into deep thought...

No! At least we can't let the news spread!

Tesla looked at the girl beside him, hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind and hurriedly chased after her...

“Pfft…hahahaha~~”

Tesla had just walked out the door, and the next moment the door closed, Lan Feng couldn't help himself anymore. He didn't care whether there were any surveillance cameras in the room, and just burst out laughing.

Did I seem to have some strange interest awakened? Never mind... It seems that I have screwed Tesla over this time.

(Why do I suddenly feel a little guilty...)

Lan Feng felt that he hadn't been so relaxed in a long time.

(I need to find a way to get them to help me fuse Honkai energy... Since I have Kaslana's bloodline, how can I not take a chance?)

In this strange world, Lan Feng believes that only by becoming strong can one gain true freedom.

·————————————·

When Tesla walked in the aisle, he found that the female researchers were consciously keeping a distance from him, and the men were also secretly glancing at him with strange eyes.

"No wonder... I was wondering why Dr. Tesla brought a little girl into the base. It turns out that it was for..."

"I saw it! I never thought that Dr. Tesla would be such a person..."

"Shh...she's coming..."

"Keep your voice down..."

……

Although their voices were very low, Tesla still heard part of it. Words like "bt lesbian girl" fell into her ears, but she couldn't find out who said it. Tesla's face was frighteningly gloomy.

(These damn gossipy girls… They are usually so unenthusiastic when doing experiments, but why are they so enthusiastic when spreading these boring news?! No, I can’t let them talk anymore!)

"Everyone! We are a branch lurking in the Destiny Territory. We are at the forefront of the conflict. How can you be obsessed with these boring news? Forget them all! Otherwise...!"

Tesla blushed and spoke loudly, and the people around him responded one after another. However, the awe in the eyes of these researchers towards Tesla was no longer the same as before, and was replaced by a funny look...

Destiny Headquarters...

"I'm sorry...Colonel Claudia, I..."

Standing in front of the serious woman, Claire lowered her head, and her previous carefree look disappeared without a trace.

The mission to recover the experimental subject K424 was a complete failure. Fortunately, Tesla's attack was not severe, and Claire and Lillian returned safely to the headquarters of the Mission and reported to Claudia.

"Colonel Claudia, the mission failed and it is my fault. I was too careless and let the people of Anti-Entropy

The sneak attack was successful."

"No... Lillian, this time it really is..."

"enough!"

Hearing Claudia's shout, the two Valkyries shut their mouths obediently, lowered their heads, and dared not move.

For Claire and Lillian, it was unforgivable that they messed up such a simple task...

"B-rank Valkyrie Claire, Lillian. The punishment for your mission failure has been issued."

Hearing this, the two girls became more and more nervous. Their bodies trembled slightly, their hands clenched into fists, and their faces were full of unwillingness.

With such a serious mistake, the two of them might even be disqualified from becoming Valkyries...

"Your punishment is... you are prohibited from attacking for two weeks, and you are required to reflect on your mistakes and submit a report on your failure."

"Eh……?"

Claire and Lillian looked up suddenly with expressions of disbelief.

that's it?

"What's wrong? Do you think the punishment is too severe?"

"No...no! But why...?"

Claire said hurriedly. She really couldn't understand. The goal of this mission should be very important. How could her failure only result in such a light punishment? No... It was so light that it couldn't even be considered a punishment!

"Anti-Entropy's action this time was the result of the intelligence department's negligence. The responsibility does not lie with you."

Claudia said calmly, her tone becoming slightly softer, completely devoid of her usual cold and stern tone.

"Also... you guys can come back safely, that's better than anything else."

Claire was stunned for a moment, and her expression slowly changed from shock to joy. Even the calm Lillian couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.

This is the first time for them to be cared for by this boss!

"Go back and rest. The mission is over. You've worked hard. Also, Claire, I will personally test your strength in two weeks. Be prepared."

"Yeah! Yeah! Don't worry, Sister Claudia! I won't lose next time!"

The smile returned to the girl's face. She pulled her friend, waved to Claudia, and ran towards the dormitory not far away...

Claudia stood there and did not leave. At this time, a petite figure slowly walked out from the corner behind.

"Claudia, since you care so much about these children, why don't you agree with my ideas?"

Theresa, who was wearing casual clothes, looked at the cold woman in front of her with confusion in her eyes.

(Claudia... one of the S-rank Valkyries of destiny. According to rumors, she is a ruthless executioner who treats everyone mercilessly, but why...?)

"I am only concerned about my men. Don't think I am as naive as you, Miss Apokalis."

Claudia scoffed at Theresa's words.

"But, you obviously cherish them, so..."

"Your plan is to let the Valkyrie cherish her life and live like an ordinary girl?"

Claudia interrupted Theresa directly, with a mocking look in her eyes.

"That's right! These children also have the right to this happiness! Moreover, the Valkyries fight to protect the world, why can't we care about them a little more?"

Theresa said excitedly that she had proposed the idea of ​​changing the Valkyrie teaching system a few years ago, but it was rejected unanimously by the top management of Savior.

"Ridiculous! What do you think of a Valkyrie? How can a warrior who fights against Honkai be trained like this?!"

"But……!"

"Theresa! I'm telling you, your hypocritical behavior is meaningless! What you're doing will only make An Yi blunt their sharp claws and fangs, and make them lose their edge as warriors! Besides, the longest lifespan of a Valkyrie is no more than 30 years old. How can you let them live like ordinary people?"

"No matter how short their lives are, I still hope they can live happily..."

"That's enough! I just can't stand your childish and naive ideas! It's really... I'm so stupid today to even try to reason with a guy like you."

After saying this, Claudia's expression returned to its previous coldness. She walked straight past Theresa, as if she didn't want to look at this girl again.

Theresa stood alone in the empty hall and slowly lowered her head.

"Even so... I won't give up..."

There was a determined look in those azure blue pupils, without a trace of confusion.

After calming down her irritable mood, Claudia gently knocked on the wooden door in front of her.

In the almost completely mechanized Tianming headquarters, the room with such a luxurious wooden door would only belong to one person...

"come in."

With a magnetic and elegant voice, Claudia pushed open the door. The handsome blond man raised his head and looked at Claudia who walked into the room.

"Master Otto, what do you want?"

Claudia spoke seriously, her behavior no different from usual.

"Claudia, gather the troops and hunt down the escaped researcher. The anti-entropy personnel who assisted her escape did not detect our tracker."

"Lord Otto, is there anything else you want?"

"Also, don't rush into anything. These two idiots will lead us to their lair."

Looking at the surveillance images on the terminal screen, Otto smiled slightly.

(How dare you reach your hand over here... It seems that I am too lenient with you...)

"Follow them, and then...completely destroy Anti-Entropy's base in Europe! Bring back K424!"

"Yes, Lord Otto."

Claudia replied as usual, but at the moment she was thinking about other things...

Somewhere in the Nordic wasteland, an underground base...

"Miss Cecilia, are you telling the truth?"

Across the screen, Einstein looked at the silver-haired girl with a serious face. No wonder she was so serious, after all, what Lan Feng said really overturned her cognition.

"Yes, the bloodline of the Shaniyat family has a unique ability to manipulate Honkai. I can fully control the appropriate amount of Honkai energy."

That morning, Lan Feng went to Tesla and asked him to help her try to inject Honkai energy into her body.

By the way, when Lan Feng was in the corridor, the researchers passing by looked at him with a strange look of pity, which made Lan Feng a little confused. However, since no one restricted his actions, Lan Feng didn't care so much, so he went directly to the laboratory he had been in yesterday. As expected, Tesla was inside.

Originally, Tesla felt apologetic towards Lan Feng, but after listening to Lan Feng's many hypotheses (made up) about Honkai energy, Tesla, who specialized in physics and was not good at biology, did not dare to try it easily, so he had to contact Einstein. Thus, the three of them met again in this way.

"To be honest... what you just said is really crazy. If ordinary people come into contact with something like Honkai energy, they will be constantly eroded, and eventually their minds will be destroyed by the Honkai will, turning them into dead soldiers."

Einstein said seriously that at first, she had not expected that this girl who was a clone of Cecilia would contact her on her own initiative. However, after hearing Lan Feng's solemn words, she had to admit that her interest was aroused.

"You really didn't mean to die?"

"If I wanted to die, why would I bother with all this? Besides, there are other important things I need to do."

After hearing Lan Feng's words, Einstein frowned slightly.

"I have indeed heard that the Shaniyat family possesses special powers. If you are sure that you are really immune to the erosion of Honkai energy and can control them, then it is worth a try... By the way, Tesla, why are you so silent today? What happened?"

"Ah? Eh! No, no! How could anything happen? Today's branch is the same as before, and Tianming has not tracked us here..."

"Okay, okay, I got it..."

Einstein reluctantly interrupted Tesla, whose face was red. It was obvious that something had happened. But since she didn't want to talk about it, there was no need to ask.

"If that's the case, then we can easily restore your strength. But... Cecilia, I hope you can tell us, as a replica, what is your goal? Why do you want to become stronger? Will you still be loyal to your destiny? You also know that your husband Siegfried has left his destiny, and..."

"I know, I'm looking for my daughter! If she's not strong enough...my daughter, Kiana, will also become a victim of fate!"

Hearing Einstein's series of questions, Lan Feng lowered his head slightly and spoke in a firm tone.

(Should I tell them the truth about what happened nine years ago...? No, who knows if there will be a butterfly effect. Wait... Come to think of it, hasn't something changed already? When Siegfried escaped from his destiny, Anti-Entropy didn't intervene at all.)

Just as Lan Feng was hesitating whether to reveal more information to increase the credibility of his intention to betray destiny, Einstein raised a question.

"Your daughter? Okay, then finally...please tell me, why should we help you? Give me a reason."

Across the screen, Einstein stared at Lan Feng's pupils, as if he wanted to see through her eyes and see into her soul...

Seeing that Einstein's eyes suddenly became sharp, Lan Feng subconsciously wanted to look away, but before this thought came to her mind, she forcibly restrained herself.

(No...Hold on! Cecilia won't lose to a researcher in terms of momentum! And if I don't take this gamble, how can I survive in this world?!)

At this moment, in Einstein's eyes, the silver-haired girl's eyes flickered slightly, and then became firm. Her sea-blue pupils seemed to be burning with a raging will.

Seeing this, the last trace of doubt in Einstein's heart completely dissipated.

Although it is a little strange, how can the replica be exactly the same as the original?

“Good

Eyes... But you haven't answered my question yet, Miss Cecilia."

"Let's make a deal, Einstein."
