K424 of the Collapse World

"It's okay. I just used up a lot of energy. We're evenly matched, right?"

"Ah..."

Seeing this scene, the girls in the orphanage tour group consciously looked away. Even Bronya, who was born in St. Freya, was a little afraid to look directly at the strange teacher Himeko.

I can only pray for Miss Charlotte...

717 Shadow

It was not until Jizi dragged Charlotte away from the training ground that the girls gradually turned their gazes back.

"Bronya... Is that red-haired wolf-dog girl okay? I wanted to touch her just now. By the way, will Mr. Himeko give her to..."

Rosalia shuddered as she recalled the ferocious look of Jizi just now. Although she became one of Jizi's students after entering Saint Freya, she had never seen this teacher go berserk like this in the past few months.

Lilia also nodded with lingering fear.

"I second that. Teacher Himeko looked so scary just now. She looked exactly like Cocolia's mother when she's angry... Xing, did you see that just now?"

"Ah... Me? I don't think I can beat her..."

Xing, who was still a little distracted, responded casually. She kept scanning the surrounding environment, with a sense of familiarity.

Yan Ming's irritability invaded her thoughts.

During her continuous observation, Xing had already grasped some details, but unfortunately, these memories were like dreams after waking up in the morning. She could only find a few fragments of them, and then they disappeared from her mind after a few seconds...

Xing's strange behavior did not attract the girls' attention. After all, Xing had been in a state of mental breakdown for a long time during their journey. Even the most careful Xier gradually stopped paying attention to her expression.

"What does Sister Bronya think?"

"It should be fine. Stupid Diana has stepped on the teacher's landmines countless times. The worst time she was beaten was that she couldn't get up for a long time."

Compared to the people who came later, Bronya seemed much calmer. However, thinking of the difference in momentum between the two before they left, and thinking of the results of Jizi's previous mock battles, she couldn't help but worry about a certain wild wolf...

The Xuanyuan Sword driven at full power is enough to kill even Benares, let alone Fenrir who is weaker than Benares?

At this moment, another voice suddenly sounded from behind the girls.

"Don't be afraid, little ones. They are evenly matched most of the time, so even if they fight it won't be a big problem."

A black-haired girl with a similar figure to Xing came over, sat next to Xier in a familiar manner, and greeted the girls.

"Hey, girls, long time no see."

"Good evening, Miss Claire."

Although the black-haired girl in front of them seemed to be about the same age as them, the children in the orphanage all looked respectful, and the Vodka twins and Xing were no exception.

All the students of St. Freya know that there is an instructor in the academy who is as immature as Principal Theresa, and is responsible for teaching one-handed sword skills and mixed martial arts. Her name is Claire Shaniyat, and she is the black-haired girl in front of them.

Although Claire was not like this before and became like this because of an experiment, it is not important to the students. It can even be considered a good thing.

Even if Instructor Claire's temper is still the same as before, the students would naturally prefer to accept a grumpy little loli instead of having a grumpy old lady as an instructor.

"By the way, this should be your first time at the military training ground, right? Although you are welcome to visit, please be careful not to go to those obvious restricted areas~"

"Yeah...we understand, Ms. Claire."

"That's right. With Bronya leading you, I naturally don't have to worry...Haha, it's just out of professional habit that I want to remind you young ladies."

The girl with the bell-like laughter said this while waving to her companions on the other side of the training ground.

"Lillian~Lillian~Come here~~"

"I'm training, Claire, please don't disturb me."

The girl holding the gun in the shooting range responded indifferently and continued her infinite target training. On the photon screen next to the simulator, next to the login information of the username "Lillian Ochoa", the data of this training was displayed.

Simulation difficulty: A++

Number of destroys: 4634

Off-target number: 0

Number of omissions: 3

Hit rate: 100%

Total completion rate: 99.8%

At the top difficulty of the A-level Valkyrie category, Lillian's shooting accuracy still maintained a very high score. The three missed targets were also accidentally missed after being disturbed by Claire.

In the simulation field, five or six targets of A++ level would whiz by in less than half a second. The difficulty was enough to make a certain lady of the Constraint Laws throw her pistol in anger, and directly spread her light wings and fired fifty gamma particle streams at them...

In terms of weapon proficiency and shooting skills alone, Lillian might have reached the level of an S-class Valkyrie. However, to become an S-class Valkyrie, it is almost impossible to achieve it by reaching the pinnacle of a single skill - for ordinary people.

Perhaps she has a shooting level that is close to Siegfried's, and is proficient in the use of various modern long-range weapons, but Lillian's close combat skills may not be as good as that of the "weak" Lillia.

Lillian now was at best a low-profile version of Colorless Radiance. No matter how good she was at long-range weapons, she could never match the firepower of a floating fortress, nor could she carry a single-soldier outer armor weighing more than ten tons.

Although the Colorless Flame's close combat skills were also extremely poor, but with the blessing of the Nexus system and the power of the stigma physique, when facing danger, she only needed to swing the gun barrel in her hand like a stick, which was enough to knock a medium-sized tank-class Honkai beast away like a baseball.

After being simplified ten years ago, the S-level promotion exam, which is still difficult for many Valkyries, has created those S-level Valkyries with comprehensive qualities that are almost all-round, but they are all too young. Obviously, mediocre people without talent will never be able to reach that field, no matter how hard they work, they are destined to fail...

That's right, I am a so-called mediocre person. Even Lillian's most confident gun shooting skills

Coincidentally, she didn't have the confidence to compete with Kiana Kaslana.

At this time, Claire's shout interrupted her thoughts again.

"Lillian, your shooting skill points have already been filled up. Instead of wasting bullets there, why not go to Siegfried to learn some gun fighting skills. As for now, how about coming over to accompany these lovely little ladies?"

"No need, the 'cute little lady' next to me is already enough of a headache..."

"Ah~! Lillian actually praised me as a lady, I'm so embarrassed... But, these kids rarely come to visit the military training ground, why don't you come and chat with them~"

717 Shadow>>

"..."

In the face of her old partner's relentless pestering, Lillian finally chose to compromise: 54365九389协.

"Well, exercise your reflexes next time, Claire."

After turning off the simulator, Lillian quickly walked to Claire's side and looked down at the little black-haired girl.

"Come and be my living target. Let's see how many bullets you can block with your knife."

"Ahahaha... Isn't that a bit too much? Lillian, it's important to combine work and rest. Let's chat~"

The informal young instructor waved her hand and made room for Lillian.

"Hello, Teacher Lillian..."

"Well, hello everyone."

After greeting the girls indifferently, Lillian sat down and gently soothed her slightly sore shoulders.

Claire was right. I really should take a break...

Seeing the red and blue twin girls looking at her nervously, Lillian tried her best to keep her expression calm and not pay attention to the two girls' eye-catching strange tails.

"Lillian, what mission did you carry out this morning? You couldn't even follow..."

"Nothing, just monitoring a person with a special identity."

Lillian shook her head and took a sip of the sports drink beside her, obviously not wanting to talk about the mission any more.

"A person with a special identity? Could it be the mercenary in the rumors? I remember his name was Nasha or something..."

"..."

It turns out that when God created idiots, he gave them sharp intuition as compensation for their intelligence. Lillian only felt more headache because Claire guessed the content of her mission.

"Natasha Sciora, an international mercenary codenamed Raven, was hired by Miss Shilis to temporarily join the Destiny Organization. She needs to be monitored during the observation period, so..."

"Oh? I see. I see. What kind of person do you think he is?"

"Don't mention it. That guy somehow made a date with Miss Asakura Miyuki, and even went to the White Star Bar in the center of the branch when it was packed with people... As for what they talked about, I can only ask Miyuki later."

Lillian had a depressed look on her face, and she gradually opened up under Claire's encouragement. However, Rosalia and the others could only listen to their discussion silently, and there was no chance for them to communicate at all...

However, when she heard the words "Raven", "Asakura Miyuki", and "Tavern", Xing's eyes fell apart.

Xing seemed to see a cat-eared girl with a gloomy expression sitting in the corner of the bar. Sitting next to her, a gray-haired woman wearing a hood looked at her with a smile and leaned over to whisper in the girl's ear...

Xing found that she seemed to have some impression of this incident...but in fact, she had never been to the White Star Bar!

Fortunately, this feeling is vague and can be easily ignored like an illusion...

"Claire, by 'come and spend time with the kids', do you mean leaving them alone and then asking me to chat about work?"

Finally, as Lillian took the initiative to bring up the matter, Claire suddenly realized that because of her sudden curiosity, she had made the girls around her sit idle for several minutes...

Seeing that Claire finally noticed her, Bronya quickly stood up.

"Well, Teacher Claire, we actually want to go somewhere else, can we..."

"Ah! Sorry, I talked to you so much without realizing it... Where do you want to go? As compensation, we can provide free tour guide services, right Lillian~?"

"Go and have fun by yourself. I won't accompany you."

Lillian rejected Claire's initiative without hesitation and walked back to the training ground. However, when she returned to the shooting range, she looked back casually and frowned slightly at Xing who was always absent-minded.

Why does this hot-tempered girl give people a different feeling today?

Seeing Claire leading a group of half-grown girls to the other end of the training ground like a leader, Lillian smiled knowingly and quickly put the matter behind her.

Who knows the troubles of children?

? For a trivial matter like this, I would actually use my vigilance unnecessarily...

At the same time, in another private area of ​​the Far East Branch's scientific research area, Dr. Einstein put down the quantum environment analysis report in his hand and answered the communication request from Tesla.

"Eager for a gem-stripping surgery? I get it...but you better take care of it by tomorrow, that's all."

After a brief conversation, the communication screen was immediately cut off. The two doctors did not chat for a few more words as usual, but chose to return to their work immediately.

Tesla has the core research goal of the Herrscher of Fire, and recently accepted a series of commissions from Shiris; Einstein is also very busy with the affairs of the Quantum Sea.

Even though this project was completed by the cooperation of the two organizations, the development of the Eye of the Abyss amplifier, which involves the core data in the quantum field, was completely supported by Einstein's technology...

However, Tesla was responsible for debugging the operation of each stage of the amplifier. According to the plan, today was the day for debugging the machine, and Einstein did not want the original time to be delayed.

There is still a lot of work to be done, and the threat of the Herrscher is hanging over his head like the sword of Damocles. If possible, Einstein also wants to break Shiris's prophecy and open the channel connecting the parallel space before the Herrscher of the End comes...

"Oh? The progress of the Second Research Institute is faster than expected in the experiment... Miss Hillis, it seems that we may be able to give you a surprise next time we meet..."

The blue-haired girl rubbed her eyes and picked up the analysis report on the table again. She looked at the research information on the terminal with a hint of smile in her tired eyes.

At this moment, the dark golden light curtain quietly spread out, once again covering the entire world...

718 Mission

Wendy's treatment was ultimately delayed until the next day.

Although Shirley drove a modified wheelchair motorcycle and brought Cocolia to the medical department in less than half an hour, the matter had to be postponed to the next day in order to gather Cocolia's subordinate technicians.

The next morning...

In the special operating room rented in advance by Shirley, the staff were moving various special instruments into the room and installing them next to the operating table.

The operation of stripping the Herrscher core is naturally not as simple as removing gallstones. It must be assisted by a large number of advanced instruments involving Honkai energy. After all, the stripping process will produce extremely dangerous Herrscher core energy. If this Honkai energy leaks out, Far East will be in trouble.

There are naturally no Honkai energy instruments in ordinary operating rooms, so there is a necessary step to install them...

Wendy lay on a makeshift stretcher, silently waiting for the equipment to be installed with the people accompanying her. Although she was always suffering from the pain brought by breaking the law, this strong girl did not frown at all.

After several days of endurance, she had gotten used to the pain. Although it was still unbearable, she had managed to get through it for several days. At least at this last moment, Wendy didn't want to continue crying in front of the person she respected...

The silver-haired girl who was standing by the stretcher was holding Wendy's hand the whole time.

"Oh! Really..."

Tesla, wearing a white coat, suddenly complained and closed his communication page in annoyance.

"What on earth is Jiwotou doing... Is he so busy that he can't even answer the call?"

After staring at the words "No response to communication" on the terminal screen for a while, Dr. Tesla did not redial. He put the terminal into his pocket, crossed his arms and continued to wait for the installation work.

"What's wrong, Fulei? Didn't Ain answer your call again?"

Hillis asked with some concern, turning her gaze to the Tesla next to her, still holding Wendy's hand.

"Yeah! I called her for the third time, but she didn't answer..."

"Could something have happened? Do you need me to come over and take a look?"
