K424 of the Collapse World

The beautiful foreign girl in front of him had short blue hair that reached her shoulders and was wearing a tight tactical uniform that showed off her figure. It was inevitable that the man would feel uneasy when in close contact with such a girl.

However, what concerned him most at the moment was not the girl's face, but her entire right arm, which was made entirely of machinery starting from her right shoulder.

Mechanical prosthesis. This kind of thing that was only seen in science fiction movies suddenly appeared in front of him, and the man's heart was once again shaken.

(Can it transform like Iron Man? Or is Miss Valkyrie a robot herself?)

The man couldn't help but speculate, and as his nervousness gradually subsided, his attention was completely focused on the precisely constructed mechanical arm. If he wasn't afraid of offending the Valkyrie in front of him, he almost wanted to hold the mechanical arm that was holding his chin in his arms and study it carefully.

For those who like science fiction movies, who can resist seeing a high-tech robotic arm right in front of their eyes?

"Don't be like this, sister. We are now a formal organization recognized by the world. Please treat the victims of such incidents with a little respect..."

At this time, a familiar clear voice came from the side. The man subconsciously turned his head and saw the black-clad Valkyrie who brought him here. After taking off her hood and mask, she revealed a delicate face similar to the blue-haired girl with the mechanical arm. Her waist-length hair, also in bright blue, cascaded down, shining in the light like a starry night sky.

The young man was a little stunned. He didn't expect that this Valkyrie lady with extraordinary skills was so beautiful. And...these two are actually sisters? The childish elder sister and the serious younger sister, what an interesting sister combination...

"Don't be so rigid, little Kerry. This gentleman is the first ordinary person to board our Luna. As the captain, I want to interview him about his current mood..."

"Then don't act so coquettishly. Can't you just face the person when you ask the question?"

"Who is flirting?! I'm just a little excited... In the past, when dealing with witnesses like this, we would directly disinfect them with the Soul Steel Oscillator, then physically erase their memories and throw them on the side of the road."

It seems like I heard something extraordinary, so I should pretend that I know nothing... The man thought to himself, turned his head away inconspicuously, and looked towards the exit of the cabin.

"Also, this is the first time I've come into contact with ordinary people in this capacity. I really want to know what kind of existence we are in their eyes."

The girl with short blue hair said with a smile, then she put away her mechanical arm, jumped down from the distribution box, and stood in front of the man.

"So...young gentleman, could you tell me your name?"

"Uh, I... my name is Wang Heng, and I'm from the T City Center Landscape Design Company..."

"Okay, okay, just say your name when introducing yourself. Someone will ask you about these things later, so you don't need to say them now."

The girl with short blue hair interrupted with a smile, then cleared her throat and placed her palm on her chest.

"My name is Elena Nosya, and I am the commander of this small warship."

After saying that, the girl blinked her eyes, and a hint of cunning flashed across her eyes. The next moment, without giving the long-haired girl a chance to speak, Elena reached out and pulled her over.

"This is my sister, Chris Nosia~! I usually call her 'Kelly'. How about her, isn't she cute?"

For some reason, the man felt that the long-haired girl's expression seemed a little strange, but when he heard the sister's last question, he nodded seriously.

"Well, to be honest, Miss Chris is the most beautiful and lovely girl I have ever seen... Well, of course, Miss Elena, you are just as beautiful..."

"Haha~ Don't worry about me, as long as you think my sister is cute, I'm very happy, hahaha..."

"..."

Wang Heng still felt a little strange looking at Elena laughing and Chris who looked helpless beside her. However, thanks to Elena's livening up the atmosphere, he hardly felt nervous anymore.

"Um, Ms. Elena, may I ask... where are you going to take me? Also, is it true that I am infected with Honkai?"

Ask the questions that matter to you most.

He looked at the two girls in front of him seriously, waiting for their answers.

"We will take you to the Anti-Entropy branch. It may be a bit far for you, but we will definitely send you back safely after the incident. Please rest assured..."

"What?! A branch of Anti-Entropy? Aren't you the Valkyries of Destiny?"

"The Valkyrie of Destiny? Uh... Kerry, is that what you just told him?"

"I didn't. I just didn't correct his guess."

The long-haired girl shrugged, broke free from her sister's arms, took her equipment and walked to the maintenance room next door, seeming to be a little bored with the conversation.

It seems like there is some small conflict between these two sisters?

"Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you. Although we two are considered Valkyries, we are not members of the Destiny Organization. Instead, we belong to its ally, the Anti-Entropy Organization."

"Oh no no no, I'm not disappointed. The Anti-Entropy Organization is also very powerful. Uh... Gundam and so on..."

Wang Heng hurriedly explained, but unfortunately, he had not learned much about the Anti-Entropy Organization, so even if he wanted to brag about it, he had no way to do so. He only knew that the Anti-Entropy robots seemed to be very powerful, but he knew nothing else...

"Humph, kid, it's not just mechas that are powerful in anti-entropy."

At this time, a burly agent sitting in the front row sneered, looked at Wang Heng who had a puzzled expression, and shook his head.

"What's a Valkyrie? You think anti-entropy is inferior to destiny? Wait until you meet Miss Kaslana of our Far Eastern Alliance, and see if you can still say such things."

"The Far East Alliance... Miss Kaslana?"

Hearing this, Wang Heng was stunned. This was another person he had never heard of. However, before he could ask in detail, Elena next to him coughed twice, glared at the talkative agent, and ended the topic.

"Well, the influence of destiny is indeed far greater than anti-entropy. This is an indisputable fact and there is no need to say more. Mr. Wang, is there anything else you want to know about the Honkai incident you encountered?"

"Well, I still want to know, if I am infected with Honkai... what will happen next? That Honkai creature just now looked no different from an ordinary human..."

"This is different... Ordinary people like you will most likely turn into a pale zombie-like monster, howling and rushing at living people. That's probably it...?"

"I'm suddenly a little scared... So am I infected with Honkai now?"

"We can't be sure yet. Although we can sense the existence of Honkai, we can't do anything about the Honkai factor with a longer incubation period. If it's that kind, there won't be any problems in a short time, so we need you to go to the branch with us to check with special instruments!"

Elena smiled, but the next moment, her smile suddenly became weird.

"Don't worry! Even if you mutate into a dead soldier now, we will deal with you cleanly and throw all the wreckage into the battleship's Houkai furnace. It won't cause any pollution~"

"..."

"Haha~ Just kidding~"

Looking at the girl whose smile had returned to its bright state, the sullen-faced man suddenly had a feeling that being taken to the Anti-Entropy Organization this time might not be a good thing...

589 Shadows in the Light

The full exposure of the news of the Honkai Impact also had an impact on Valkyrie Academies around the world.

Those girls who had signed numerous confidentiality agreements before becoming Valkyries never thought that these things that they had tried so hard to hide would be suddenly exposed to the world.

The discovery of a new thing, when observed by people, is often accompanied by contact and interference. However, due to various confidential reasons, the information of the Honkai creatures cannot be made public, and the public focus falls on the Valkyries who fight against them to satisfy people's curiosity about these "guardians".

Because of the public's continued massive attention, more and more news reports about the Valkyrie appeared. Media from all sides gradually became dissatisfied with writing all kinds of common sense news that were circulated all over the place, and they gradually became bolder.

After all, the topic of Valkyrie is the hottest topic in history. Whether it is the group interested in Honkai knowledge, those who yearn for heroes and battles, or some circles that love ACG culture, the topic of Valkyrie can be said to be spread all over the Internet. The official accounts created by various Destiny branches on large platforms have received more than one billion messages every day.

Led by Far East, some reporters began to negotiate with the local Tianming branch to obtain permission to visit the Valkyrie Academy. In order to deal with these matters, the Tianming Senate, which was undermined by Otto, finally came in handy.

In Otto's view, these things are not even trivial matters. No matter what decision the Senate will eventually make, as long as it does not affect the strategic plan and strength foundation of the Mandate of Heaven, the bishop will not interfere.

Of course, these ancient families who once controlled destiny knew very well what to do as to what could be shown to the public and what must be hidden in the dark.

"Why, you're panting at this point? Did you miss breakfast?!"

At the training center of St. Freya Academy, as the baby voice of a young loli echoed through the stadium, the Valkyries who were running breathlessly revealed resentful looks.

Each of them carried a half-ton load and ran around the training ground at a constant speed. This simple and rough endurance training was one of the most unbearable training contents for them. The instructor in charge of this part of the training was also one of the people that the Valkyries of Saint Freya were afraid of.

"Speed ​​up! Your speed is about to drop below 25 kilometers per hour!"

Hearing that childish and majestic voice again, the Valkyries had no choice but to squeeze out their remaining strength and raise their speed to the minimum required index.

No Valkyrie dared to challenge the instructor, no matter how dissatisfied they were with the abusive physical training.

On the metal platform at the edge of the training ground, a black-haired little girl about 1.4 meters tall sat on the edge of the stands. Judging from her appearance, she was only 11 or 12 years old. With her slightly pale skin and slender limbs, she looked like a sickly noble lady.

She was wearing a specially made Valkyrie uniform, holding a small trumpet in her hand, and her beautiful deep purple eyes were slightly lowered, looking indifferently at the Valkyries running in circles.

Claire Shaniat.

This name is familiar to any Valkyrie who has taken physical education classes. The first instructor at St. Freya Academy to include activity classes in the training schedule is Miss Claire from the headquarters.

In the impression of many Valkyries, Claire Shaniat is a young Valkyrie with short beige hair and heroic spirit. Her harsh training and hot temper frightened many students. There were several Valkyries who openly contradicted her, but she beat them all unconscious and sent them directly to the infirmary.

Later, Instructor Claire disappeared for a while. When she appeared in front of the Valkyries again, she had inexplicably turned into a little loli with black hair and purple eyes, which caused a great sensation at the time.

In this regard, Claire explained that she was seriously injured during the mission, and her body degenerated after treatment. However, many Valkyries did not believe this explanation at first, and they could not connect this weak black-haired girl with the devil instructor. But as Claire took over the physical education class again, the poor Valkyries immediately understood that even if their instructor changed his skin, he was still the same instructor.

“Huha…Huha…I can’t take it anymore…”

"Damn it... She's already become a little loli, why can't she be a little gentler? Humph... After all, she's still an aunt in her twenties! Huhu... Look at how cute Principal Theresa is!"

"But Lady Theresa is also 43 years old..."

"I don't want to listen! Theresa-chan will always be twelve years old!"

"..."

The black-haired girl frowned, her purple eyes reflecting the Valkyries a hundred meters away from her, and she raised the small trumpet in her hand.

"What are you guys chattering about? Since you're still so energetic, you can train for another ten kilometers."

Hearing the soft and childish voice, the Valkyries in training turned their heads and glared at the Valkyries who were speaking.

"Shit... Is that guy's hearing so sharp?"

"Sorry everyone! I'll treat you all to lunch today..."

"Hmph! A weird aunt with a loli appearance..."

Several Valkyries added a few words in low voices, but the next moment, the loli voice that sounded from the loudspeaker again made their hearts skip a beat.

"Ah~ I think I heard something interesting. Miss Tita, it seems like you want to 'show off' with me again?"

"Eh! I...I didn't..."

The Valkyrie who spoke last broke out in a cold sweat, and the psychological shadow left behind quickly emerged from the depths of her mind.

Even though this instructor Claire had become like this, her terrifying strength had not diminished at all, and it seemed that she had become even stronger. At least, Tita had never heard of an A-level Valkyrie who could hear whispers from a hundred meters away without the help of equipment...

All the little girls in St. Freya Academy are very popular. Although Claire's appearance is just as cute as Theresa and Bronya, she is probably the least popular little loli among the Valkyries.

"Excuse me, Master Claire."

Suddenly hearing a respectful voice behind her, Claire raised her eyebrows, let go of the rude Valkyrie student for the time being, and turned to look at the woman in the civilian work uniform behind her.

"You seem to be...Minister Salela of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? What can I do for you?"

"Master Claire, um... this afternoon, a group of reporters from Kyoto will come to Saint Freya Academy for an interview. Could you please join us as a guide?"

"Ah? The press corps... I remember they had a square performance in Binhai City two days ago, right? How come this is happening again?"

Claire frowned. With the foundation of the Mandate of Heaven being made public, the existence of the Far East branch was naturally exposed to the eyes of the Far East people. According to the resolution of the Senate, outsiders are allowed to visit the branches of the Mandate of Heaven on a regular basis, and some business cooperation can be carried out under certain circumstances.

589 Shadows under the Light >>

After all, this could not only expand the influence of Destiny, but also acquire resources to expand military spending, and all it would take was a little time from a few Valkyries.

The square performance mentioned above is to have the Valkyries go to places like gymnasiums and perform like a military parade. Of course, those who perform this kind of task are generally logistics Valkyries and general affairs Valkyries below level C. Although their combat skills are not high, they are Valkyries with artificial stigmata after all. As long as they perform some stunts such as dismantling tanks with bare hands and breaking rocks with their chests, it is enough to fool ordinary people who don't know how powerful they are.

"Lord Claire, this interview was scheduled a long time ago, and we are in a difficult situation here..."

Hearing this, Claire sighed softly.

"Okay, but why me? Wouldn't an intelligence-related Valkyrie be more suitable as a guide?"

"Regarding this, the media has specifically requested that Claire-sama serve as a guide, or that she stay in the principal's office as much as possible during the interview."

"why?"

Salela pushed up her glasses, her expression becoming a little strange as she thought of the email she had seen.

"They said that Lady Claire and Lady Theresa look very compatible. They are both cute little girls with black and silver hair of similar colors. They are also leaders of Saint Freya, which is a good selling point for interviews and reports..."

"..."

"Please, Master Claire..."

The corners of Claire's mouth twitched. After a moment's silence, she sighed heavily, leaned back as if giving up, and lay directly on the cold metal stand.

"Okay, okay, it's not the first time anyway... But just in case, let me ask first, there won't be any wise reporters asking those weird questions this time, right?"

"Uh... I don't think so. I heard that the reporter who asked Miss Wuliangta about her measurements during the live broadcast has been fired..."

"That would be the best. Heh... Anyway, I am an instructor with no additional duties now. If I cannot accompany Miss Shilis to the battlefield, participating in activities like this can also be considered a contribution to the organization, right?"

"Lord Claire..."

Hearing Claire's slightly negative tone, Salela was about to say something when the black-haired girl raised her hand to stop her.

"Don't comfort me. Since these things have fallen on my head, I should just treat it as a job well done. My willful behavior has already caused a lot of trouble to Miss Shilis. It would be too ungrateful to be picky about the work. At least, we can't let those reporters disturb our core combat members, right?"

"Well...it's as you said, Master Claire."
