K424 of the Collapse World

----boom!!

As the fierce energy burst out from the center of the explosion like a ray of light, the huge smoke and dust raised by the blast shrouded everything around in a hazy haze. Looking at it from a distance, the power of this attack was almost comparable to that of a small intercontinental missile! Under such an attack, it was enough to shatter the fragile Valkyrie to pieces.

However, this is not the case...

"Ahem... ahem... what happened? Did its attack fail?"

A Valkyrie who was choked by the smoke shook her head vigorously, forcing her dizzy brain to regain consciousness. She asked the others while coughing awkwardly. Just now, when the terrifying energy wave was about to hit the Valkyries present, it suddenly exploded in mid-air. They were just thrown away by the aftermath of the energy and suffered minor injuries.

.

“No…! Just now…something blocked its attack!”

091 Young Eagle in a Cage>>

Another Valkyrie panted and said, her condition was not much better. Although she was only hit by the energy aftermath, the energy that was lost still made her feel her internal organs churning. After she came to her senses, she recalled what had just happened. Before the attack came, it seemed that a blue shadow flashed in the air...

Thinking of this, she looked slightly to the side.

Atop the cracked rock, a blue and white mechanical cross lay quietly.

At this moment, the Valkyrie suddenly understood something and looked up. As expected, she saw an energy transporter suspended in the air...

"Everybody look at that!"

Following the Valkyrie's surprised shout, the others looked in the direction her finger was pointing, and when the aircraft came into view, they understood what had just happened.

"Great! It's reinforcements!"

"It's so slow...! Fortunately it's finally here!"

……

At this time, the Valkyrie captain looked at the aircraft in the air with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"That logo on the side of the plane...? Is this support from headquarters?! No wonder it can block the attack of the emperor-level Honkai beast..."

·————————————·

At this moment, in the transport plane...

Next to the opened engine room, the silver-haired girl frowned and looked down at the groups of Honkai beasts below. When she saw the Valkyries who were safe and sound through the smoke, her frown relaxed slightly.

"Phew... I caught up."

"Lin... your mission description shouldn't ask you to rescue those Valkyries, right? Why are you doing something unnecessary like this?"

Suddenly, Lucy's voice came from her headset. Although she said this, her voice revealed relief and gratitude.

"I'm sorry, Lady Lucy. I took the initiative..."

"No, no! I don't mean to blame you. Rather, I am very happy to see you do this..."

Hearing Lucy's sincere words, the girl smiled and shook her head, and set her sights on the huge spider-shaped Honkai Beast...

"Lady Lucy, is that my mission objective?"

"Well... to be precise, that is your primary goal. Your mission is to repel all the Honkai beasts in this area...! By the way, is this really okay? I think you just threw your weapon away, right?"

The girl's expression didn't change despite Lucy's worry.

"It's okay, Lady Lucy. That weapon... Eleudnir is made of soul steel, a metal specially used to block the Houkai. A Houkai beast of this level cannot destroy it, so the weapon is fine, and the bishop will not punish me."

?; "That's not what I'm talking about! How are you going to fight Honkai Beast without weapons?"

“Don’t worry about that. Time is limited, so Lucy-sama, let’s get started…”

After the girl finished speaking, she leaped directly from the aircraft in the sky!

Below, several Valkyries looked at the figure who jumped off the aircraft without any buffering device, and their expressions became astonished. But before they could react, the girl who was free falling in the air moved her mind, and the back mechanism of the black Valkyrie armor burst into a burst of blazing flames! Her figure then accelerated again in mid-air, turning into a meteor and rushing straight towards the huge spider-shaped Honkai beast.

The moment she approached the Honkai Beast, she suddenly twisted her body and flipped over, and her heel swung back and chopped down fiercely, landing mercilessly on the Honkai Beast's head!

————Bang!!

With a thunderous sound that shocked the whole place, the Honkai Beast's head was hit hard, and the back half of its body bent upwards as its head tilted downwards! At the same time, the girl's armored heel also smashed the Honkai Beast's head carapace to pieces! Dirty purple liquid also burst out!

The Honkai beast roared in pain, shook its head fiercely, and threw the petite girl down. While the girl adjusted her body in mid-air, she slightly opened her hands. The armor on the back of her hands shone, and Elyudnir, who was not far away, was attracted and flew back to her hands in an instant!

After the girl got the weapon, she fell back to the ground and directly stabbed Eleudnir into the ground. The next moment, the mechanical cross was deformed, and the middle part instantly expanded outwards!

The transformation was complete in an instant, and a blue hilt appeared at the top of the fully extended cross.

The girl grabbed the handle and pulled out a long sword placed in the cross. The blade was light blue and translucent, and the whole blade had a slight arc, which looked like a katana.

——Imitation Spirit Sword·Bing Tantian

One of the swordsmith Nagamitsu's former works. For some reason, she gave this sword to the girl along with Eleudnir...

————Swish!

The girl's figure tilted down slightly, and with the cold light of the sharp blade flashing, her figure disappeared on the spot, leaving a long knife mark across the Honkai beast. The next moment, the girl's figure suddenly appeared in mid-air and landed again...

At this time, the body of the Honkai Beast had already frozen. With a slight sound, a small crack suddenly appeared on the head of the spider-shaped Honkai Beast, and half of its head slid down. However, this time no liquid splashed out, because a layer of frost had already condensed on the cut surface...

This Honkai beast, which had finally evolved to the quasi-emperor level, died inexplicably at the knife of the silver-haired girl before it had the chance to show its power to the world.

The girl swung the blade in the air, causing it to vibrate. She turned around and looked at the remaining Honkai beasts and the dead soldiers.

At this time, all the members of the Valkyrie team were stunned. They looked at the silver-haired girl standing in front of the Honkai Beast, with astonishment, admiration, and confusion in their eyes...

The Honkai beasts would not stop their actions just because of the Valkyries' astonishment. As those fearless Honkai creatures rushed forward again, the girl's left hand that was not holding the knife slightly stretched out, and Elyudnir, who was nailed not far away, deformed again, forming a small turret. The energy core flashed blue light bullets, pouring the rain of death towards the Honkai beast tide. The small Honkai beasts and the dead soldiers could not hold on for a moment in the dense light bullets!

At the same time, the sword in her right hand slightly deflected, and the blade was entangled with flying ice chips. With a jolt of her feet, the girl's body shot out towards the oncoming Honkai beast! The transparent blade cut the Honkai beast in two...

·————————————·

After a while, the girl looked at the remains of the Honkai beasts scattered all over the ground, exhaled softly, and put the imitation spirit sword that had killed countless Honkai beasts but was still spotless back into Eleudnir. Then, Eleudnir turned into the shape of a cross again.

"Sir, thank you for your support! I..."

Suddenly hearing a voice from behind, the girl turned around and looked at the Valkyrie captain who came forward and bowed, and shook her head slightly.

"No need to thank me... These are all the Honkai beasts, right?"

"Ah...? Yes, yes! In any case, please accept our thanks! If it weren't for you, we would have died in the hands of these damn Honkai beasts... By the way, your strength should be that of an S-rank Valkyrie at the headquarters, right? I wonder what your name is..."

At this moment, the girl suddenly raised her hand and interrupted the Valkyrie captain.

"I've already told you that you don't need to thank me. Whether it's rescuing you or destroying these Honkai beasts, it's just my mission. Also, please don't be interested in my identity. Since you are a Valkyrie at the captain level, you should know what this thing means, right?"

As she spoke, the girl raised her chin slightly and pointed to a light yellow mechanical collar handcuffed around her neck.

“This, this…! Could it be that you…?”

Seeing this, the Valkyrie captain's eyes suddenly narrowed and she screamed, because she knew what this thing was...

A remote bomb collar, and it looks like a special model...

In the Savior Organization, the only people who were put on long-range bomb collars were either serious criminals who had lost their freedom or certain dangerous experimental subjects... This girl must be one of them.

However, the first possibility can obviously be ruled out, as repeat offenders are not allowed to act alone. Then, she can only be an unfortunate person who has undergone some kind of experiment...

But... such a young child... ?

Although the Valkyrie Captain was very curious about the girl's story, she forced herself to suppress her curiosity.

After all, ordinary members of the Destiny Organization are not allowed to come into contact with these people. After all, these things basically contain certain secrets.

The girl gently touched the three glowing crystals on the front of her collar for a long time, then put her hand down.

"From your expression, I think you understand. So... for your own safety, don't get involved with me, okay? Goodbye... No, I hope this is the last time we meet."

After saying that, the girl turned around, carrying her cross on her back, and slowly walked towards the aircraft parked not far away.

The Valkyrie captain looked at the petite figure walking away and couldn't help biting her lips.

"But...even so, you are still our benefactor..."

"Hey! Captain, is she leaving? I haven't even thanked her yet...!"

At this time, a young Valkyrie who was not seriously injured ran over and looked at her captain with some dissatisfaction. She was about to chase after the silver-haired girl, but was suddenly grabbed by the shoulder by the Valkyrie captain.

"Don't get close to her...! Otherwise, you will die."

"What...? Why?!"

"This is a secret... a secret of the headquarters. You should understand, right?"

"……Yes."

The Valkyrie captain looked at her subordinates who had suddenly fallen silent and sighed softly.

"Keep what happened today to yourself and don't tell anyone else. If you don't want your memory to be wiped..."

"But Captain, who is she...?"

Looking at the puzzled young Valkyrie, the Valkyrie captain hesitated for a long time. After watching the silver-haired girl's aircraft disappear into the sky, she lowered her head slightly.

"Don't envy her strength. The price behind it is simply not something we can afford. I can see that, in fact, she is envious of us...envious of the freedom we have..."

The Valkyrie Captain said to the young Valkyrie, but she was more likely talking to herself.

"Okay, let's finish our mission first... The location of the ruins has been basically determined. It's underground."

As the captain spoke, he took out his terminal and looked at a mark displayed in the center of the light screen, his brows slightly relaxed.

"The coordinates of the ruins of that former civilization have been sent to headquarters. The mission is over. Let's return, everyone..."

The Valkyrie captain spoke softly, her eyes full of fatigue. In any case, for them, what happened on this day can only be regarded as a dream...

·————————————·

On the small plane, the silver-haired girl sat quietly in her original position. She gently stroked the metal collar around her neck, feeling the cold touch, and her other hand secretly clenched into a fist...

(No... it's not the right time yet. My power is sealed too severely. Now... I can't guarantee the possibility of escape. And...)

Thinking of this, the girl tightly grasped her collar, her eyes gradually froze into ice...

(My father...I can't leave until I get the specific information about "Siegfried"!)

092 Adjutant

North America, Dongnanhai Electric Co., Ltd.

——Bang!

"…Dr. Tesla is really going too far!"

In the office, a female employee slammed her fist on the desk, ignoring her red fist, and loudly and publicly condemned someone.

Other people in the office also expressed indignation at the female employee's anger.

"As the leader of the company, I don't know where I go all day long, and I throw all my work to her lieutenant!"

"Yes! So many things are handed over to others. What's the use of her? Acting as a mascot of the company? Speaking of which, that adjutant lady... Sigh... Although she may be that kind of person, but this kind of workload..."

"Yeah, it's really pitiful..."

……

For a while, the office was full of complaints against a certain executor. Generally speaking, Tesla often leaves the company, and no one cares about it. But now, with some things that happened before, someone's reputation has become worse and worse. Now, as long as there is a little fault about Tesla, it often causes public outrage like this.

In addition to these, another thing happened some time ago...

·————————————·

I don’t know when it started, but as the figure of a purple-haired girl appeared more and more frequently in the public eye, the employees of the Southeast Sea Company basically knew that this little girl should be the harvest of Dr. Tesla’s trip to Russia.

This was nothing, because something had already spread here a long time ago?; Under arrangement, this girl actually became one of the employees of this subsidiary company of Anti-Entropy!

The girl's personal information clearly stated that she was 18 years old, but no one would believe such a thing. At most, it was just a formality to fool the local government. After all, the laws of many countries clearly stipulate that employing child labor is illegal...

Moreover, the girl's position is also very intriguing: Dr. Tesla's adjutant.

Combined with the rumors about Dr. Tesla, other people in the company could guess what was going on with their toes.

The rumors about Tesla started to get worse from this time. Most people originally just used the name "Lolita" to tease her, but when they found out that the matter was actually true and even quite serious, they gradually began to secretly condemn the Lolita's behavior.

Everyone believed that Dr. Tesla did this ridiculous thing in order to play some special games with the girl. After all, how could a little girl who looked only ten years old be qualified for such a job?

But soon, everyone discovered that things were not entirely like this...

·————————————·

At this time, while listening to colleagues' complaints about the superior, a woman sitting in the corner sighed and did not join in the conversation.

She hesitated for a moment, then picked up an experimental report in her hand, pushed the door and walked out of the office.
