K424 of the Collapse World

"what?"

Hearing this, Caroline narrowed her eyes and put down the pen in her hand. At this time, the Valkyrie in charge of the report clearly felt the pressure from the branch director as a superior...

Could it be that Lady Caroline is angry?

Apart from some strange habits, the Caroline branch chief had almost no shortcomings that could be discussed. As the Valkyrie of the Oceania branch, almost no one had ever seen this mature and gentle branch chief show anger.

"That guy is such an idiot... If he thinks that little Silis's power can control our Oceania branch, then if he wants to kill him, wouldn't it be as easy as crushing a bug? I've heard before that the research institute headed by this Visen has many problems. Now it seems that it's not easy for the New Zealand Research Center to maintain operations until now with such a waste..."

Caroline laughed angrily, took the investigation report from the Valkyrie, glanced at it briefly, and threw it on her desk.

Since that Weisen refused to cooperate with the investigation, all the information and evidence that we had painstakingly compiled were meaningless. The branch chief must be angry because of this, right?

The Valkyrie in charge of reporting observed Caroline's movements and couldn't help but guess in her mind.

"Don't be angry, Lady Caroline. Some people will only blindly believe their own eyes. By the way, Mr. Weisen seems to be planning something... Will he do anything bad to Miss Hillis?"

Mei, sensing the atmosphere, said the Valkyrie carefully, observing Caroline's expressionless profile. Although the branch chief has a gentle personality and will not take it out on his subordinates even when he is in a bad mood, the Valkyrie still can't help but feel nervous and scared now, like a frog being stared at by a poisonous snake...

Is the sense of pressure from the superior really so terrifying?

"Don't worry, Lindy."

Suddenly, as the whisper suddenly sounded in her ears, the Valkyrie shivered, and then she realized that Caroline had come to her side, holding her shoulders and putting her face close to her ear.

"Since that guy is so ignorant of the current situation, there is no need to let him sit in the position of director. Really, he has disrupted all the plans. Will it be bad for Shirley? Hehe... How can he, a researcher without military power, deal with an S-class Valkyrie who can defeat thousands of people? With his half-baked doctorate? Well... Indeed, it will cause some trouble."

Caroline kept the ambiguous posture and whispered, wantonly mocking the director of the institute, her fingers brushed the Valkyrie's shoulders slightly and touched her chest...

In response, the Valkyrie's tense body trembled slightly, and then relaxed in the next moment. She naturally buried her head in Caroline's chest and took the initiative to put her arms around the woman's body.

Obviously, both sides have become accustomed to this kind of thing.

"Um... um~ Caroline

What people said is right~ Miss Hillis is completely unaware of Dr. Wesen's conspiracy. If we let him act at will, it will definitely cause trouble for Miss Hillis, and even hurt her... Hey, Lady Caroline likes that little girl very much, right? Shouldn't we eliminate this trouble for her in advance? In this way, Miss Hillis will also be grateful to you, right?"

"Well..."

Caroline smiled slightly, and her seemingly slender arms easily picked up the armored Valkyrie by the waist and pushed her directly onto the desk. Papers and folders fell to the ground with a clatter, but neither of them cared about it.

"You can't conquer Miss Shilis just by doing such a small thing. However, I don't want to let that rubbish Weisen do anything to hurt her... Anyway, don't worry, I will personally keep an eye on them before dealing with Weisen."

Caroline slowly leaned down during the embrace, smoothed the hair that fell on her forehead, and just lay on the Valkyrie, getting closer to her lips.

"Hey, Lindy, what kind of position do you think.....Siris would like?"

"Well... don't talk about other women on my body, Sister Caroline."

"Ah~~ Little Lindy is jealous too? Don't worry, when Shilis joins us, she will also be your sister~ Then, no matter what you want to do with her, I won't mind~?"

With their palms clasped together, their lips gently touched...

At this moment, in an isolation room that has become a training ground, three apples are floating in front of Wendy at the same time. Under her control, the surrounding air gathers together and condenses into sharp and tiny wind blades. In a flash, the skins of the apples are accurately peeled off.

She raised one hand, and three compressed air bullets appeared between her fingers. She aimed the air bullets at the bottom of the apple and fired them, easily piercing it. The wind pressure directly crushed the core of the apple, leaving only the edible flesh of the apple.

459 I heard the pace is a bit slow >>

The girl completed this process entirely through her own abilities.

Wendy skillfully placed the peeled and cored apples on the plate, then turned around and was about to show off her increasingly sophisticated control to Hillary, but she noticed that the silver-haired girl sitting at the table shivered violently.

"Eh? Lady Shilis, what happened?"

"Nothing... I just felt a sudden chill for no apparent reason. Could it be that someone was getting horny looking at my photo? It's really weird..."

Shirley shook her head and patted her head, as if trying to get rid of some bad associations. Wendy saw this and didn't say much. She pushed her wheelchair in front of Shirley and showed the plate in her hand to the silver-haired girl.

"Lady Shirley, Lady Shirley~ I can now use my power to peel three apples! I even removed the cores. Do you want to eat some?"

"What? Three times the amount of training, can you achieve it so quickly? It's only been a short time..."

Shirley's eyes widened slightly, and she looked at the three peeled apples on the plate with a little surprise. As expected, these apples did not have the angular feeling of peeling with a knife at all, and the whole body still maintained a smooth round shape, as if the peel and the flesh were separated as a whole.

This level of accuracy is basically not inferior to that of computers.

"Well done, Wendy. I have to say that your progress has exceeded my expectations. With your current level of control, flying by your ability should be no problem..."

Shirley said sincerely, standing up and touching Wendy's head to show her appreciation. Wendy, who had begun to mature mentally, seemed to resist a little, but she did not avoid Shirley's hand. After accepting Shirley's touch with a slightly red face, she raised the fruit plate in her hand and handed it to Shirley.

"Does Lady Shilis want to eat an apple?"

"No, I don't really feel like eating right now."

"Then... shall I feed you?"

"I already said I don't want to eat it... Since it's already been taken care of, you can eat it yourself. Three apples aren't too many."

"Three is already a lot... Besides, I ate a lot during practice just now, and I can't eat any more..."

"Then give them to the Valkyries on duty outside the door. If they oxidize and turn yellow in a while, they won't look very pretty."

"Oh... I see."

Wendy showed a hint of disappointment in her eyes for not being able to let Shirley eat the apple she had peeled herself, but she still nodded, put the plate on her lap, pushed the wheelchair with increasingly skilled abilities, and left the room.

After Wendy left, the electronic door of the room slowly closed. Shirley sat down again, looking at the crushed apple peels in the trash can, and slowly frowned.

Obviously, Wendy did not construct the wind into a blade shape and then peel the apple like a knife, but directly controlled countless tiny sharp winds to completely pulverize the surface of the apple...

By

It seems that Wendy's control level has reached the peak of its current state. For her now, this level of training is meaningless. If she wants to improve further, she can only extract more usable Honkai energy. If so, she will have to deal with those things at the consciousness level.

Regarding these, Shilis had already made plans. She would not let Wendy play against the Honkai Will in the Oceania branch. Although there was nothing wrong with the lab and equipment here, she was still a little worried in such a place where she could not see through the depths.

It's time to leave, but before that...

"But... I'm such a good person that I asked Wendy to deliver gifts to the Valkyries who were in charge of surveillance..."

With a self-deprecating laugh, Shiris stood up, walked to the electronic door of the room, grabbed the handle and gently pulled it open.

"What's the matter?"

Looking at the female researcher standing at the door with her hand raised to knock, Shilis leaned against the door frame and crossed her arms, asking expressionlessly. The latter put down her hand somewhat awkwardly and cleared her throat.

"Excuse me... Lady Shilis, Minister Caroline wants to discuss something important with you. Is it convenient now?"

"Oh?"

Shiris tilted her head, looked at the young woman who was in casual clothes and whose identity could not be seen, and smiled slightly.

"Who are you?"

"Ah...? Me? I'm a subordinate of Lady Caroline."

"You're not a Valkyrie, are you? I remember that when Caroline came to New Zealand this time, the people she brought with her seemed to be her personal Valkyries, right?"

"About this... You may not know that I did not come here with Lady Caroline, but came as a follow-up support."

"I see."

Hillis nodded, and her cunning eyes became intriguing. In fact, she didn't even know when Caroline came to New Zealand, let alone who the branch director brought with him when he came?

However, the other party didn't seem to know either.

Shiris turned her head and looked at the Valkyries fighting together not far away, and smiled knowingly.

Come to think of it, Wendy was also a Valkyrie before. As a former colleague, the Valkyrie's attitude towards her was obviously very different from that of the researchers.

It seems that the Oceania branch is not as isolated and helpless as I imagined. These ordinary Valkyries should be trustworthy. Moreover, with Wendy's current level of control, she can probably handle any unexpected situation on her own. It shouldn't be a problem in the short term...

"Okay, then when do we leave?"

"Right now, Lady Shilis, please follow me. Minister Caroline is in the lounge nearby and will be here soon."

I don't believe you. If a guy like Caroline came around here, he would have come to tease her in person and also taken advantage of Wendy. Why would he find an unidentified guy to convey this message?

Although I don't want to cause trouble for myself, if trouble comes to me, there will be nothing I can do.

It seems that there is still something to do before leaving.

460 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

Following the woman who looked like a researcher, passing through several partition passages that she had never been to before, and finally arriving at an unfamiliar experimental area room, Shirley looked at Visen who was sitting in the chair in front of her with a smile, and did not feel the slightest bit of surprise.

"Ah... Dr. Wisen? Why are you here? I heard that you were injured and are currently in the intensive care unit, right?"

Looking at the man in a white coat, holding his chin with his metallic hands, the girl laughed secretly, covered her lips, opened her eyes wide, and asked in surprise, seeming to ignore the hidden hostility.

In the huge space, there was only the tall and thin man sitting at the table and the mechanical warehouses placed around. Apart from these, there seemed to be nothing else.

"That was true two days ago, but thanks to Miss Toshilis, I have recovered."

"Well, congratulations, Dr. Wisen. I wonder what you are doing here. I heard that Minister Caroline asked me to meet here, right?"

Shirley asked with her head tilted, then turned and looked at the guide woman who was standing at the door not far behind her, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

"Oh? Is that so... What a coincidence! Minister Caroline also asked me to meet her here. Is that not possible? But I didn't expect that the lady would also call Miss Shirley... Please take a seat, and we will wait for Miss Caroline to come."

Weisen narrowed his eyes and said with a sinister smile. He raised his mechanical hand and pointed at the chair opposite him, motioning the girl to sit down.

"hehe......"

Although Caroline had asked them both to come at the same time, there were only two chairs on either side of a square table. It was obvious what this meant. Mr. Wesson was too lazy to even draft a lie. It seemed that he was ready to confront him at any time.

Looking at the heavy metal chair next to her that was obviously equipped with some device, Shirley felt that her intelligence was insulted.

辱。

Why do you think I would sit on this obviously problematic chair?

The next moment, as Visen's eyes instantly shrank, the silver-haired girl suddenly took a step forward and sat sideways on the desk between the two chairs. She crossed her legs and looked at the somewhat panicked Visen with a slightly slanted look.

The distance between the two was barely less than two meters. No wonder Weisen suddenly became nervous, closing the distance with the Valkyrie who was good at fighting, which meant that the initiative had fallen into the hands of the other party.

"I'm sorry, I don't like this kind of electric chair prepared for prisoners. It's more comfortable to sit like this. Well, Dr. Weisen, you don't have to talk to me about this nonsense. Since you have the courage to ask me to meet, you might as well say what you want to say directly. Why use Minister Carolyn as an excuse?"

"Ahahaha... Miss Hillis, you must be joking. How can this be an excuse? No matter what, there is no need for me to be so roundabout in asking Miss Hillis to meet me, right? Well... please don't worry, because the location of this meeting place is a bit remote, so I can only find chairs like this..."

Weisen shook his hands and said, using his sturdy mechanical arms to block in front of him, trying to lean his body back as much as possible, pressing his feet tightly on the ground, as if he was ready to turn around and run away. For these meaningless actions, Shilis naturally chose to ignore them and just kept sitting in the same position. She felt a little funny and her eyes softened slightly.

"Is that so?"

"That's right! That's right! Just wait a little longer and Miss Caroline will be here! In fact... I'm also very curious about what she wants to talk to both of us about..."

Seeing that Shilis seemed to have stabilized, Weisen breathed a sigh of relief and began to stabilize the Valkyrie as much as possible. At the same time, he glanced at the leading woman standing behind him.

"Really? In that case, I might as well contact Miss Caroline's terminal now to see if the bad idea of ​​putting me on the electric chair was actually the instruction of the minister."

"No, no, no, please believe me, Minister Caroline is already on her way, there's absolutely no need for this... Before that, how about we just chat about something?"

As Weisen spoke, his fingers had already touched a suspicious protrusion on the armrest. At this time, he had no time to consider whether it was suspicious or not. Looking at the silver-haired girl sitting at the desk in a women's suit, he finally asked the key question that determined how to act next.

"Speaking of which... Miss Shilis, when you Valkyries are fighting, you should need the assistance of armor, right? I wonder what Miss Shilis's Valkyrie armor looks like?"

"Huh? Why, Dr. Weisen is interested in the Valkyrie armor? I'm sorry, but I didn't come to New Zealand to fight, so I won't wear that kind of thing all the time."

"So... your armor is not with you now?"

Upon hearing this, Weisen smiled, and his eyes narrowed into slits. A cold and malicious look began to emanate from him without any concealment.

Noticing the change in the man's aura, Hillary sighed softly, still maintaining her original indifferent expression, and looked at Visen without any hesitation.

"So, this is what gave you all of a sudden a surge of confidence?"

--Snapped

Before the girl finished her words, a clear sound of impact came from behind her. A hand holding a syringe was raised high, and the sharp needle was stabbed at the back of the girl's neck! However, as if she had expected it, Shilis directly put her hand on the side of her neck and gently blocked the wrist of the hand.

"There are only three of us in this room. If you want to do something behind my back, I suggest you ambush in advance. That way, the success rate will be slightly higher."

Hillarys chuckled, maintaining her original sitting position, not looking at the woman's instantly terrified expression. She exerted a little force with her arms and swung the attacking woman directly onto the square table in front of her. The wooden table immediately cracked, and she twitched and curled up in pain.

"Ugh—!"

"The executor's methods are amateurish, the mastermind's plan is old-fashioned, and his intentions are too obvious. Dr. Weisen, you stared at me murderously the moment I entered the room. Anyone would be able to tell that you have ulterior motives, right?"

Holding the gaze device that the woman had dropped, Shilis took a quick look at the pale golden potion, then looked up at Weisen, who had a gloomy expression on his face.

460 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey>>

"Although it's a good thing that the enemy is weak, it's also a little uncomfortable to be underestimated to this extent... But Dr. Weissen, I still don't quite understand. Although there were some minor frictions before, we are considered to be indifferent to each other. Why did you have to attack me? Hey~ Isn't it good to be alive?"

"......"

After hearing the girl's last words, veins suddenly popped up on Weisen's forehead. However, at this moment, he seemed to have something to rely on, and he was no longer afraid of the silver-haired girl in front of him, and pressed the button on the armrest of his chair.
