K424 of the Collapse World

"By the way... Claudia, since you are also a combat-oriented Valkyrie, have you ever known Cecilia Shaniat before?"

Claudia was stunned when she suddenly heard this question, and then her expression became a little strange.

"I don't know him. I just met him a few times at the headquarters. At that time, I was only a B-level Valkyrie, so I naturally had no chance to meet an S-level Valkyrie.

What is the intersection of these two big shots...Why are you asking this?"

"Nothing, I'm just a little curious, is the real Lady Cecilia also like her, not good at commanding operations? Could it be that the Snow Wolf Squad is commanded by someone else, and she is only the nominal captain of the Snow Wolf Squad because of her own great strength?"

Hearing this confidential question, Claudia frowned again. She did not answer it immediately. Instead, she thought about it carefully and swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

"...This is not something we can know. The information about Cecilia Shaniyate was originally the top secret intelligence of the Destiny Organization. After her death, her related information was even included in the top secret files. However, instead of caring about the dead Cecilia, you should focus on the current Third Herrscher Cecilia."

"Cilissa... well, talking about her is really a headache... She does have the intelligence and psychological quality of an adult, but if you ask me, the indecisive feeling she gives me is really not like a seasoned Valkyrie who has experienced countless battlefields. Moreover, the obviously problematic relationship between her and Frederica Nikola Tesla is completely incomprehensible..."

"I know your doubts, Heather. In fact, these are also the things we need to investigate now. Before we find out the truth, any speculation will be useless. So... you should understand, right?"

"Well, don't worry. I will play my role well until I receive further instructions. Disintegrating anti-entropy... This is the meaning of my existence until now..."

As the communication ended, the encrypted signal icon on the light screen disappeared, and the headphones were filled with noise again.

Claudia turned off the light screen in front of her, leaned back in her chair, and slowly closed her eyes.

Qqun: 543659389! "Even she was affected... So, are those so-called humane Valkyries really suitable for the mission of Valkyries? Hehe... Theresa, I can't wait to see what kind of useless Valkyries the Saint Freya you founded has cultivated?"

She scoffed and shook her head, but couldn't help frowning again when she thought back to the conversation just now.

"Those words... I hope you just said them casually, otherwise..."

She opened her eyes, and her gaze was icy cold.

"Forget it, you're not that naive. But...if you really make a stupid decision like them...don't blame me then."

"Even if I'm just an unofficial special S-class Valkyrie, it's still easy to get rid of you except for Cecilia and Kiana..."

She was talking to herself, and suddenly she remembered something, her expression became gloomy. She put her hand on her chest and exhaled slightly.

"The only problem is this damn body. I wonder if it can last until then?"

With a slight sigh, she called up the information she had just received and began to carefully read the missing details.

"Hmm...? 'She' has some inclinations to return to her destiny, and is also dissatisfied with the members of her team? Hmm... can we take advantage of this a little bit?"

Far East, Changkong City, me company headquarters...

"No, there's nothing I can do... I can't feel the dissipated Honkai energy at all, so naturally I can't control it..."

In a laboratory in the basement of the headquarters, the purple-haired girl leaning against a laboratory shelf opened her eyes and waved helplessly to the others around her.

Not long ago, after Lan Feng saw the changes in his eyes, although he was surprised, he quickly accepted this fact.

(By the way, remember that all the K-S series experimental subjects were created using the genes of Kiana and Sirin, and if I am one of them... then it doesn't seem so difficult to understand that the part of my body that was assimilated by Honkai energy showed Sirin's characteristics... But in this case, could it be that the other consciousness in my body is a personality formed by the fragments of Sirin's consciousness?)

(Speaking of which, that "Kiana", there is also a Sirin inside K423... They are probably like clones. It's really uncomfortable...)

Thinking of this, Lan Feng was shocked, but he recovered quickly. After all, there were more important things to do now. Moreover, only the appearance of his eyes had changed, and his vision was not affected at all.

However, this still made her feel a little troubled. Her eyes in this state obviously could not be easily seen by others.

Lan Feng naturally knew that the former Ruler of the Void, Xilin,

The eyes are shaped like this. For Lan Feng, although she didn't know what this meant to her, the extra x-shaped mark in the middle of her pupil was a problem anyway. Moreover, this strange pupil seemed to have a rather strange sense of empathy...

Tesla looked at Lan Feng, who had a confused expression, and sighed softly.

"Your eyes really... remind me of some bad memories..."

"Ah? Tesla, what did you just say?"

Lan Feng came back to his senses and turned to Tesla and asked. But the red-haired girl just shook her head with a complicated expression.

At this time, Einstein walked up and looked directly at Lan Feng.

"Cilissa... You should be familiar with your pupils like this, right? When you were Cecilia... Well, let's stop talking about these useless things and get back to the topic."

Einstein clapped his hands, and when the surroundings quieted down, he organized his words a little.

"It seems that your test just now has failed... In other words, the Houkai energy surrounding your body is now completely out of your control, right?"

Einstein asked with a frown on her face. Her thin blue eyebrows were already knitted into a slightly sharp angle. Obviously, she also felt that this matter was a bit tricky.

"Although there are only trace amounts of Honkai energy floating around you, their concentration has reached 3000 hw, which is completely at the level of a Herrscher. In other words, if you maintain this state, once detected by any detector, you will be immediately identified as a Honkai creature!"

Einstein said seriously. Hearing her words, Lan Feng scratched his hair in distress and cast his eyes on Tesla who was sitting next to him.

"So, what can you do? The alarm inside the ME company is fine, but if it is discovered by the Honkai detector of the Destiny organization, my news will probably spread throughout Destiny in an instant..."

Lan Feng looked a little anxious when she said this. Tesla saw her uneasy look and couldn't help but want to say something to comfort the girl in front of him.

"As for this, you don't have to worry so much, because you don't have a Herrscher Core. If the distance is not close enough, even if this level of Honkai energy fluctuation is detected, it will only be regarded as an oversized Emperor-level Honkai beast. Such a thing will not spread throughout the Mandate headquarters. Well... According to common sense, it should only attract the attention of the Mandate Far East Branch and Shenzhou, probably..."

Tesla tried to comfort her, but it obviously had no effect. Instead, it made Lan Feng look even more flustered.

"An emperor-level Honkai beast... I can't be reassured at all! I will be surrounded and attacked by the Far East's Valkyrie troops. There is a high possibility that the head of the Far East branch, Theresa Apokalis, will lead the troops here in person!"

No wonder Lan Feng was so nervous. She had never thought about how to face Theresa in that situation. It was still okay before. The worst result was that the K-S series of experimental subjects were exposed in advance. But now, things are different.

Celine was the indirect murderer of Cecilia, and that was the fact on the surface. The most important person in Theresa's life was her best friend Cecilia.

After Theresa met him and saw these eyes that were exactly the same as Celine's except for the color, God knows what that zz sister would do... But what is certain is that she would never have good intentions towards him.

In short, if Theresa saw his eyes, everything would be over. Even if he defeated the Far East Branch's encirclement and suppression forces, the original direction of this world would be completely destroyed...

Einstein sighed, reached out and patted Tesla's shoulder, shook his head at her, signaling her to shut up, then stood up and walked to Lan Feng.

"Ms. Shiris, I must tell you in advance that in your current state, you must not easily leave the ME company before we find a solution! As I said just now, if the personnel of the Destiny detect the reaction of Honkai energy in you, you already know what will happen."

"Hey! Dr. Einstein, wait a minute... What's the difference between doing this to Sister Shiris and imprisonment?"

But before Lan Feng could say anything, Kiana stood up and interrupted excitedly. For some reason, when she heard that Shilis's actions were to be restricted, she always felt a little unnatural. She didn't know when she started to become very sensitive to this kind of deprivation of freedom...

But the next moment, a familiar little hand was placed on her head. Kiana turned around and saw Lan Feng standing on tiptoe and shaking his head at her.

Since the person concerned agreed, Kiana said nothing more and lowered her head in silence.

Lan Feng smiled and gently stroked Kiana's hair.

"It's okay, Kiana, this kind of thing is nothing to me... Don't worry, Ains

Dr. Tan, I promise that I will not leave this room until you find a solution."

Lan Feng nodded and said seriously. She knew the interests involved in this matter much better than Einstein. Even if Einstein didn't say this to her, Lan Feng wouldn't walk around with a body full of leaked Houkai energy.

"That's not necessary, Shiris. I can go find Thunder Ryoma and shut down the Houkai alarm installed in this underground area. Until we solve your problem, you will have to stay here."

As Einstein spoke, he took out a magnetic card from his pocket and handed it to Lan Feng.

"The facilities of the ME company are quite complete. Although this is an experimental area, the No. 4 equipment warehouse and the weapons testing field are also nearby. Even in the underground area, there is an accommodation area for rest. Although it cannot be compared with the rooms outside, it can still be used."

"Thank you, but for me, just a weapons testing site is enough..."

Lan Feng put away the magnetic card and stuffed it into the pocket of her casual clothes, looking a little absent-minded. She could feel that her collapsed constitution had undergone some changes, and she just wanted to find a place to test what had happened to her body.

"Then I'll leave it to you... Tesla, Einstein. I hope you can find the problem with me. Of course, if the situation continues to deteriorate and there is no effective way to deal with it, I will find a way myself..."

Lan Feng said softly, with a bit of determination in his eyes. If he couldn't control the collapse energy of his body perfectly like before, it would be very likely to endanger the people around him. Then, even for them, he would definitely choose to leave...

Although she was somewhat afraid of Lan Feng's pupils, when Einstein noticed the determination in her eyes, she instantly understood the girl's thoughts. She couldn't help but smile, and her expression became a little softer.

"Relax, Shiris, don't be so stressed. It's just a tiny amount of uncontrollable Honkai energy. If I can't even solve this problem, what kind of doctor am I?"

Einstein said calmly. Although her face still showed little expression, her eyes were full of undisguised confidence...

At the same time, in an apartment in the accommodation area, Claire collapsed on the sofa, staring at Lillian in front of her. There was no one else in the room, and they kept on like this, and it was unknown how long it lasted...

"Lillian, what are you saying... what are Shilis and Kiana doing right now?"

"do not know."

Hearing the calm and indifferent voice of her companion, Claire sighed, carefully raised her right arm, and changed to a more comfortable position to continue lying down. Although she could see that Lillian was somewhat dissatisfied with her decadent appearance, Claire could not help it. For some reason, seeing this once lively room become empty, she felt a little depressed.

"Hmm... I don't know where Shiris and the others went. Elena is debugging the robot arm in the engineering area of ​​the ME company. Lin locked herself in the room and I don't know what she is doing. Even Sora went back to her room to rest early. Sigh~ It's not even eleven o'clock yet... Should we wake her up and have a party? After all, we are now triumphant after the successful mission, right?"

Looking at the empty room, Claire looked a little depressed. She had already adapted to living with the whole team, and it was really uncomfortable for her to be alone like before.

"Don't even think about it! Eleven o'clock is already very late! Sora... well, although I don't know her exact age, she looks like a child anyway... You actually want to drag your child to stay up late with you, what are you thinking? Qun: 3659389"

"Well, what about Shirley? At least get her here so I can suck her... Of course, Kiana is also fine..."

The corners of Lillian's eyes twitched a little. For the first time, she felt that this friend's naughtiness was so tiring.

"Try saying that again in front of Shilis? Sigh... they naturally have their own things to do. And your job now is to have a good rest and let your arm recover as soon as possible!"

Looking at her limp right arm, Claire showed a bitter smile on her face.

"I didn't expect that this hand could be saved... I was thinking of cutting it off completely and replacing it with a mechanical hand, but it seems that there is no chance this time..."

"Stupid Claire, what are you thinking?! Who would replace their body with a machine for no reason... But if this is what you want, I can help you realize this wish right now."

Listening to Claire's casual words, Lillian was obviously a little angry. She still remembered how much effort Kiana had put in to shatter her shoulder blade.

Splice it. And now Claire actually said such a thing, which really made people feel a little uncomfortable.

"Hey! Don't get excited, Lillian. I was just joking... But don't you think that replacing the arm with a mechanical arm can also effectively improve the combat effectiveness... At least now, Elena should be stronger than me."

Claire shook her left hand and muttered softly. After hearing her words, Lillian looked even more helpless. She sighed and walked over to sit next to Claire.

"So, who do you think is stronger, Elena or Cialis?"

"..."

"Claire, you are different from us. Because of my Honkai energy qualification, I can only rely on weapons to make up for my strength, but if it were you... one day, you would become as powerful as Cecilia-sama..."

Lillian spoke sincerely, thinking of a figure with long silver hair, and her eyes began to show some longing.

"Hmm? I wonder which Lady Cecilia you are referring to?"

"it's the same."

Lillian answered softly, but after Claire heard her words, a hint of complexity and helplessness flashed in her eyes.

"Lillian...you don't understand. Whether it's the former Lady Cecilia or the current Lady Shilis, they are completely different from us..."

"Oh? They are Valkyries, and so are we. What's the difference?"

"Hehe... Lillian, in your eyes, is being a Valkyrie really the only way? Is strength really that important?"

"What are you talking about, Claire? Aren't we Valkyries? That's the truth. And... a Valkyrie without power is just useless."

Hearing this, Claire smiled and shook her head, but her eyes became a little dim. She stretched and stood up from the sofa to hide her unnatural look.

"The power gained from life is really... Never mind, these are not that important. Compared to these, Lillian, don't you think it's a little late now?"

"Eh? Didn't you just say..."

"Well, I just said that it's time to take a break~"

Claire stuck out her tongue, then slowly walked into her room while Lillian looked confused.

At this moment, her expression turned cold, forming a huge contrast with her gentleness just now.

(Do you want to be as strong as her? Haha... Just thinking about it, it is indeed very inspiring. However, like the elders in the family, giving up everything for power... What's the point of that?!)

Claire closed the door gently, leaned against her own door, and slowly sat down.

She gently raised her left hand and lifted the hem of her dress. On the top of her smooth belly, there was a small three-petal flower mark, emitting a dim red glow...

(At this point, we have clearly left destiny and have the opportunity to make a choice. Lillian, this kind of thing that can only be driven by burning life... do you like it so much?)

Claire's eyes wavered. After a long moment, she sighed and loosened her grip on her clothes. She tilted her head back slightly, leaned against the door behind her, and then slowly closed her eyes.

(Forget it... Since this is what you want, there is nothing I can do about it. Anyway, everyone thinks so too...)

"How long can this life last..."

191 Fleeting

"Dr. Maki, you seem to be in a good mood?"

In the third laboratory of the former Tianming headquarters, an old man standing next to a culture tank was smiling and thinking about something. Hearing the voice behind him, he subconsciously turned around.

When the old man saw the blond man standing at the door, his smile froze on his face.
