K424 of the Collapse World

If I don't trust Asakura Miyuki because I don't know her, then the opposite is Yaezakura next to me. It is precisely because Shiris knows her kind nature that she trusts her unconditionally from the beginning...

"Well, Miss Yaezakura. I am still very

You know I am not Kallen, and even to you, I am a suspicious person whose identity is unclear, but why did you agree to my request so easily?"

Looking at the blue eyes of Yaezakura beside her, Shilis couldn't help but ask, with a puzzled expression on her face.

Hearing this, Yaezakura slowly turned around.

"Suspicious? Not really... Your last name is Kaslana, that's enough. Although I don't know why you know all those things about me, but now that Kallen has passed away, it's fate that I can meet you as Kallen's descendant... I don't have any purpose now, so I might as well stay here. I can see that you seem to be in some trouble recently, right? If you don't mind, I'm willing to help you."

"Well...thank you, Miss Yaesakura."

Without doubting the reason given by Yaezakura, Shiris smiled and thanked her, and walked towards the accommodation area with the two pseudo-hersers beside her. Just like the Valkyries at the beginning, they were under her full responsibility, so Shiris naturally had to take them to their own place...

"Sister Shilis, is the report finished?"

As soon as she arrived at the corridor, Shilis met Kiana who had been waiting there for a long time. She had already changed out of her armor and put on her usual home dress.

"Well, it's over. The two old ladies agreed to let them move in... Kiana, come with me too. We need to introduce Yaezakura and Asakura Miyuki to everyone. Also, as we agreed before, I can also tell you about Theresa..."

As usual, Shirley took the girl's hand and led her to the inner floor of the building. Only by returning to this place could she feel a sense of home for the first time in a long time.

Destiny Far East Branch...

“Huh… hm…?”

The infirmary was swollen. On a white bed, a silver-haired girl was lying quietly on it. Her eyelashes moved slightly and she slowly opened her eyes.

"Um... I fell asleep? So where is this place?"

Looking at the familiar yet strange ceiling, Theresa turned her head around with a confused look. Having just woken up, her brain was in a mess and she could not remember what happened before.

"Are you awake, Principal?"

Suddenly, a familiar female voice came from the other side. Theresa turned her head and saw Himeko Muryota sitting in front of the bed, dressed neatly.

Looking at the huge breasts of the red-haired woman with her clothes buttoned tightly, Theresa was distracted for a moment before her confused brain recognized her identity. Since a certain battle, Jizi no longer wore the low-cut clothes she once liked, and instead used formal clothes to cover her proud breasts tightly. The reason was a bit embarrassing, so not many people knew it.

"Himeko? Why... am I in the academy's hospital?"

"Have you forgotten, Principal, that you went to Changkong City to defeat the Pseudo-Hermits and lost contact afterwards? We found you at the old site of Qianyu Academy according to the coordinates of the transmitter on your body..."

"Subjugate... the Pseudo-Hermaphrodite? That's right...!"

Hearing this, Theresa's pupils shrank. She quickly stood up from the bed and looked around in panic.

"Kiana? Where's Kiana?!"

What happened before came back to her mind again. Theresa was startled and looked around for the silver-haired girl. However, in the empty ward, there were only her and Jizi...

"Kiana...? She should be in class at this time... By the way, Theresa, what happened to you? Although you only suffered minor injuries, you should rest well..."

Jizi grabbed Theresa's shoulders with both hands and pushed the restless patient back to the bed. But Theresa's emotions did not calm down at all.

"Jizi! Tell me! When you found me, didn't you see anyone else around?"

"No, you were the only one who fainted when we got there. By the way, Theresa, was the battle intense? Your clothes were torn into strips, and you were almost naked... But, you did have that thing covering you at the time..."

At this point, Jizi pointed to the other side of the ward. Theresa followed her gaze and saw a black coat hanging behind a chair. Her eyes became moist again...

(Kiana...)

"Theresa, there is an anti-entropy symbol on that dress. Did you encounter someone who is anti-entropy? Also, was the Pseudo-Hermendator successfully eliminated?"

"..."

Facing Ji Zi's question, Theresa seemed to have lost her soul. She sat on the bed blankly and remained silent...

——Boom boom!

Suddenly, there was a clear knock on the door.

No matter what Ji Zi said, the person who came pushed open the door without permission and went straight into the room.

"Hey! I heard Theresa was injured? How is she now?"

"Wait... Kiana, this is too rude. You should at least wait for the other person's response..."

After the door was pushed open, the noisy silver-haired girl went straight to Theresa's bed despite her companions' attempts to stop her.

Ji Zi raised her eyebrows and looked at the two uninvited guests indifferently.

"Kiana? Mei? Why are you here......"

"Teacher Himeko, we heard that the principal was injured, so we came to visit after class..."

Hearing Ji Zi's question, Mei Yi stood still and answered politely. But Kiana on the other side was not so reserved. She supported herself on the bed with both hands and looked at Theresa carefully.

"Hmm? It looks like the injury isn't too serious..."

After hearing the silver-haired girl's voice again, Theresa was startled. She raised her head stiffly and stared at the silver-haired girl who was looking at her with concern in front of the bed.

"Ki...Yana?"

"Yeah, it's me, what's wrong?"

Looking at Theresa's dazed face, "Kiana" suddenly panicked.

"Hey! Himeko, what's wrong with Theresa? Did she hurt her head and become mentally retarded?"

"Kiana! How can you say that? Apologize to the principal quickly..."

"..."

Looking at the noisy silver-haired girl, Theresa bit her lip and shook her head gently.

"Kiana...? So, it's not her..."

"Hmm? What isn't?"

Hearing Theresa's voice, "Kiana" was about to ask, but a tear ran down the girl's cheek and dripped onto the white bed sheet, leaving a wet mark...

"Principal, you...?"

Mei looked at Theresa with tears on her face in disbelief. In her impression, although this school principal looked like a child and often acted cute maliciously, her personality was always mature and strong. Mei had never seen her look weak before...

"Eh?! Theresa...why are you crying? It's my fault. I'm sorry. I was just joking. Don't take it seriously..."

"..."

"Kiana" hurriedly comforted Theresa who was crying. At this moment, this strong school principal seemed to have turned into a real 12-year-old girl. She just lowered her head and cried without saying a word.

Ji Zi hesitated for a moment and walked over slowly.

"Kiana, Mei, something happened to Theresa, you should go back first."

"But......"

"The principal needs to rest. Don't worry, she will be fine. Don't you have classes in the afternoon? Go back quickly."

After sending away the puzzled "Kiana" and Mei, Himeko came to Theresa's bed, and looked at the silver-haired girl who began to sob softly, her eyes became serious.

"Principal, I hope you can tell me the truth. What happened in that battle?"

281 Emergency

In the sky above Vienna, Austria, the floating island that served as the headquarters of the Mandate of Heaven was suspended several thousand meters in the air as usual, relying on the anti-gravity device driven by Honkai energy. With the help of the optical camouflage system of the outer barrier, its appearance was hidden, so it could not be easily observed from the outside.

Unlike external buildings such as the airport and industrial zone, the internal area on the lower level of the Mandate Headquarters is the main component of its operation.

·————————————·

The headquarters training center is a huge metal space that looks like a square. The intelligent lighting system replaces the role of sunlight and illuminates the entire enclosed space.

On the alloy plate floor, there were many machines for exercise. Girls dressed in different styles operated these machines, making it look like a large gym.

But unlike the gyms on the street, the shooting ranges and various types of training weapons on the edge of the wall are all real. Moreover, most of these training devices are driven by intelligent automation and are combined with various drugs for intensive training, which is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to use.

For example, there was a strong and muscular Valkyrie in the corner, doing a two-ton bench press. At the same time, the drugs were stimulating the activation of the artificial stigmata, allowing her body to adapt to this level of force...

Of course, most of the Valkyries are of the size of ordinary girls, but with the help of artificial stigmata, they still possess extraordinary strength. The physical fitness of the Valkyries alone is not inferior to the strongest war machine of the United Nations.

Although the management of the Valkyries by the Destiny Headquarters is close to militarization, it is also relatively reasonable. However, compared with Theresa's St. Freya Academy, the training of the Valkyries at the headquarters is extremely strict.

The training equipment is to strengthen the body, the shooting range and physical training room are only for practicing the destructive power of weapons.

The combat training basically relies on holographic simulation systems and learning chips, replacing actual combat training, and is conducted entirely in virtual reality.

·————————————·

Destiny Headquarters, 11:00 AM...

In a sci-fi metal cabin, the girl with blonde hair and blue eyes gently closed the electronic door and sat down in a capsule-like mechanical cabin.

After a short pause, she took off the helmet embedded in the upper part of the metal cabin, picked up a few chips placed beside it, and installed them in the slots on the back of the helmet. Then she put on the helmet and lay down in the mechanical cabin below her.

Closing her eyes, the girl was about to connect to the battle simulator when the metal door on the other side made a slight sound.

At the almost inaudible sound, the blonde girl's eyes twitched and a slight smile appeared from behind her tightly closed lips.

"Rita, what's going on? It's probably not time for lunch yet, right?"

Sitting up again, Yulandel looked at the short-haired brown-haired girl in a maid outfit with a puzzled expression.

Apart from work matters and reminders of meal times, the adjutant usually does not interrupt her exercise.

Looking at the confused blonde girl, Rita's smile showed a hint of helplessness.

"So you really forgot... Lady Yulandel, five days from now on May 7038, the subordinate consortium of the Saint Research Institute will hold a meeting with the Toyuta Asian Research Institute. The parliament originally gave us, the Immortal Blade, the responsibility for the on-site security."

Youlandel was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that there seemed to be such a thing. But she never remembered such trivial tasks clearly, and after becoming the captain of the Undying Blade, she naturally would not remember these small things as deliberately as before.

"Can't we just let Sister Tori and the others do this kind of boring work? Anyway, those guys will definitely use the name of protection to make us stand there in gorgeous military uniforms for people to see. I'm sure no one will have nothing better to do than to attack a formalistic business meeting. Let me make it clear, Rita, I don't want to be a stickling there."

"I'm sorry, Lord Yulandel, it seems that everyone in the team has gone out on a mission today. It seems that there are only two of us who are free in the Undying Blade..."

Rita still had an impeccable smile on her face as she spoke out a fact that made Yulandel's eyes widen.

"Wait...! Are they all out on the mission?"

"Yes, a week ago, there seemed to be abnormal signs of Honkai activity at the Second Honkai Field in Siberia. The Investigation Department quickly assembled an elite force, and our team members were also recruited... So, there is no other way. This time, um... the station guard mission can only be carried out by me and Lady Yulandel."

Hearing this, Yulandel pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, used her terminal to bring up a light screen and took a quick look at it, then she took off her helmet as if she had lost interest and stepped out of the training cabin.

"What a hassle... Well, according to the itinerary of that mission, we have to follow those old guys to India this afternoon, right? Really, we have to waste our time on such boring things..."

"Okay, Lord Yulandel, the order has been issued. Complaining is useless. After lunch, please prepare for the trip. Otherwise, you may be too late~"

"I understand..."

While mumbling as she put on her shoes, Yulandel took the coat that Rita handed her and casually put it on.

"But speaking of it, Rita, it's been a long time since I've been able to work with you two... Since that mission, we've rarely worked together like this, so I don't think it's too bad."

"Hehe~ If Lady Yulandel wishes, Rita can always be by your side~"

"Um...thank you."

Without discussing this topic too much, Yulandel and Rita left the training center at the headquarters and went to their living area...

Rita seemed to suddenly remember something and moved slightly closer to the blonde girl beside her.

"Lord Yulandel, I'm a little curious. Why did you suddenly want to conduct this kind of simulation training today? In terms of combat experience, the standard combat learning chip at the headquarters is no longer able to adapt to your current level, right?"

"I can't help it. Since the operation two years ago, I haven't encountered a truly strong enemy for a long time. The weak Honkai beasts in the Honkai zone have no training value at all. I can only use this method to maintain my combat awareness..."

Somewhat helplessly, Youlandel couldn't help but think again of the mission that completely changed her in February 2012. Even now, recalling those experiences in the Quantum Sea, it was still a little unbelievable.

"By the way, for dessert after lunch, would you like strawberry cake or tiramisu?"

"Tiramisu... Hey wait! Why do you suddenly want

Making dessert? Such high-calorie food...”

She responded to Rita's words without thinking, but the next moment, Yulandel showed a confused and hesitant expression.

"Even if it's just an apology for bothering the captain during the break, I remember that you don't dislike desserts. Even if it's for a balanced diet, it's okay to have it once in a while, right?"

Hearing this, the blonde girl swallowed involuntarily and lowered her head slightly.

"Well... in that case, I'll leave it to you..."

In an office in the headquarters' administrative area, a large screen was projected onto the wall. The image displayed on it reflected the entire training center of the Tianming headquarters.

Under the light screen, a burly middle-aged man stood in front of the table, silently watching these Valkyries who were training hard.

"Mr. Dist, what do you think of the Valkyrie training facility at the headquarters?"
