The civilization before the collapse, heroes and heroes are reborn with me

The most important reason why the North American branch is not taken seriously is that there are almost no relics left by the previous civilization on this side of the North American branch, and its value is too low for Otto. Nancy is willing to pay to buy the position to undermine the North American branch, and Otto is happy to count the money.

For Otto, the North American branch could really be sold at a fixed price.

In addition to this, although Tianming stayed out of the world war at that time, the European countries really crippled each other. Although Otto did not care about these, the post-war industrial system and other things needed money to rebuild, and Tianming still had to rely on the group of people below to work for it.

Even though France's lightning-fast surrender in 39 days resulted in the preservation of most of its industrial capacity in disguise, Britain, which fought the hardest, still crippled itself and turned from Great Britain into a weak country. Other European powers were also seriously damaged.

Therefore, Tianming at that time did need money to rebuild the industrial system.

For the above reasons, Otto could almost be said to have deliberately provided the soil for the independence of the North American branch.

"Joachim, do you think we can still wait for Bronya to come back?" Tesla suddenly asked.

Walter, who had remained silent the whole time, stood up, walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside and said: "When we accused the destiny of decay, the collapse never stopped, and the anti-entropy that we thought represented a new life gradually began to deviate from our original intention. The destiny has already shown signs of rejuvenation, but the anti-entropy... has begun to decay."

"But as long as you, Joachim, remain the leader of Anti-Entropy, those people will..."

"Tesla, and Ain, we all know this clearly, don't we?" Walter turned his gaze from the window to the room. "Perhaps from the very beginning, Anti-Entropy has been treading on thin ice in the game with Destiny. We can defeat Destiny many times in other places, but in fact, it is enough for Destiny to defeat us just once."

Because if they fail, it will give those countries the opportunity to strangle Anti-Entropy and interfere in Anti-Entropy's internal affairs.

After all, Anti-Entropy is not Destiny. Destiny is supported by thousands of years of religious beliefs and heritage. European countries have always been the strongest backing of Destiny. Although Otto's use of both power and force has prevented them from having any doubts, no matter what, Destiny has the confidence to lose, but Anti-Entropy does not.

Saint Freya is now facing internal and external troubles, and the same is true for Anti-Entropy.

The executor system, which was established when Anti-Entropy was first established to win over other countries and promote freedom, has now become a major constraint on Anti-Entropy.

Even though Walter is still the respected leader, what is the reality? There are only a few trustworthy executors left who listen to him, and the rest...

Ugh……

If Anti-Entropy still had an advantage in the battle against Destiny, these would not be worth mentioning. The problem is that it has no advantage at all now, which provides fertile ground for activities for those with ulterior motives.

Cocolia is one example, and it won’t be the only one.

Just like this time when Theresa confronted the congressman, some executors have begun to secretly contact Congress and those congressmen, preparing to unite and put pressure on Theresa.

After all, in their eyes, Theresa's actions were just her stubbornness. How could Saint Freya, who betrayed the destiny and fought to the headquarters of the destiny, and even participated in the battle of Haiyuan City, be accepted by the destiny again?

The problem is that……

Theresa can really do what she says!

Others may not know, but Walter and his companions know better than anyone that Theresa's return to destiny as she said is not just an angry remark, but something that can actually be done.

How should I put it? The current Otto is gradually giving up power, but who is he giving it to? That is the Shanyat family. Who among those being given power is not related to the Shanyat family?

Theresa's most valued niece, Kiana, is the second daughter of the Shaniyat family. She is valued by Lucifer, the Lord of the World Serpent, and has a lot of say in the entire World Serpent, not to mention that her relatives and friends centered around her almost include all the Herrschers of the current civilization.

The Herrscher of Ice, the Herrscher of Death and she are all from the Shaniyat family. The Herrscher of Wind, the Herrscher of Thunder and now Bronya who has the core of the Herrscher of Reason are all her friends.

In addition to Kiana, Lucifer also took good care of Theresa and responded to her every request.

Given this kind of relationship, what does Theresa have to be afraid of?

If you feel uncomfortable working with Anti-Entropy, there will be no problem in just running away.

But those people don’t know about these things. After all, even if they knew, they would most likely find it too magical and choose to deceive themselves and not believe it.

But it’s useless for them to not believe it. The facts are the facts. The current situation is that Anti-Entropy needs Saint Freya and Theresa, not Theresa and Saint Freya need Anti-Entropy.

They thought they were smart and thought they had seen through Theresa's "showing off", so they were prepared to continue to put pressure on her, but in the end there was only one outcome.

"Then what else can we do? Are we just going to give up and do nothing, waiting for Theresa to be forced back to Destiny by those guys, and for Anti-Entropy to be defeated by Honkai before Destiny is defeated?" Tesla said with a headache, "Joachim, Chicken Coop Hair, we..."

As Tesla was talking, he suddenly noticed that the expressions of Walter and Einstein were not right. These two people seemed... a little too calm?

“Joachim, Chicken-Cot Hair, you…are you really planning to give up?” Tesla asked in disbelief, “Even if Otto has the support of the Forerunners, the support of the Shaniyat family, and…”

She couldn't go on talking about the end. Otto really had too many cards to play. She originally thought that the three major families that established the Mandate of Heaven were just like that, but in the end she found out that what the Shaniyat family among the three major families showed to the outside world was just the tip of the iceberg.

"...I've actually thought a lot during this time." Walter's tone was emotionless. "Although Otto is annoying, it is undeniable that the current Otto, or the current Destiny, is no longer the Destiny of decades ago... Anti-Entropy was established to fight against Destiny and to fight against Honkai, but as time goes by, it has become an organization that exists only to fight against Destiny. It has forgotten its original job - to fight Honkai."

Tesla was speechless.

Even if he had a problem with Otto, Walter still saw one thing clearly, that is, the main force in the final confrontation with the inevitable end will always be those few people including Kiana, and none of those few people are against entropy.

Well, in fact, anti-entropy has become the most hated enemy of their original ideal when they established anti-entropy.

Therefore, Walter would not have any opinion on Theresa's choice, nor did he intend to interfere.

Previously, he decided to send Xing and others to Saint Freya in order to help them find refuge.

Rosalia and Lilia are fusion warriors who have considerable experimental value. There are many people who covet them after Cocolia's death. As Xing is a remnant of Cocolia, others will definitely not let Xing go in order to annex Cocolia's legacy.

Therefore, sending them to St. Freya is the best option, because there, Theresa can protect them. As long as they are students of St. Freya, after experiencing what happened with Wendy, Theresa is extremely sensitive to any behavior that wants to harm St. Freya's students.

After the Taixu Mountain incident, Walter had already realized that today's Anti-Entropy simply did not have the ability to fight against Destiny. The gap between the two sides was too great, and he could only try his best to preserve as much as possible for Anti-Entropy.

Bronya took the Herrscher Core to World Serpent, and the children from other orphanages were sent to Saint Freya for shelter. He, Tesla and others who stayed at the Anti-Entropy Headquarters also had ways to protect themselves.

Walter didn't believe Otto, but he believed in Kiana and Bronya.

They are the ones who hold up the hope for the future of mankind.

Therefore, he would personally find a way to remove the thorns that were blocking their progress.

Even if the result is to destroy the ideals that you once upheld.

Einstein looked at Walter. She had actually thought clearly about what Walter was going to do, and she could do nothing about it.

Walter has never changed. His original intention of fighting against destiny is actually to fight against the collapse. In order to fight against the collapse, Walter can sacrifice himself again and again at all costs, and gamble his life in every battle.

In Walter's eyes, Destiny is the enemy of anti-entropy, and Collapse is the enemy of mankind. He is the Ruler of Reason, the leader of anti-entropy, and the Ruler of mankind.

So when anti-entropy has become an obstacle for mankind to fight against collapse, no matter how painful or entangled it is, he will do it himself to erase it.

"Perhaps... this is the best outcome..." Einstein thought as he lowered his eyes.

Walter ignored the little thoughts of other executors and even showed signs of condoning them. I'm afraid this is in line with the saying in Shenzhou: "If you want to destroy them, you must first make them crazy." He is waiting for an opportunity to establish the now rotten ideals of him and all the original founders of Anti-Entropy...

Buried with your own hands.

Chapter 168 Betrayal

Saint Freya.

A figure quietly sneaked into the basement of the church in the center of the college.

The new Far East Executor who took office after Thunder Ryuma from Anti-Entropy has accompanied the councilor to Saint Freya to formally discuss the future arrangements with Theresa.

Right now, the entire Saint Freya's attention is basically either on the students who should be in class, or on this meeting. Of course, everyone knows that this meeting will most likely not produce any results. After all, Theresa has drawn her bottom line and will not accept any discounts.

But at least Theresa did not refuse to discuss. Even if the negotiations would not produce any results, it would be possible to take this opportunity to attract Theresa's attention.

Afterwards, while everyone's attention was not here, they sneaked into the church of St. Freya. From the documents left by Cocolia, they knew that there was something in the basement of the cathedral of St. Freya that Theresa cared about very much...

"I never thought that you would be the one who betrayed Saint Freya, Laura..."

A voice sounded behind the girl. She turned around abruptly and in front of her appeared several Intelligence Valkyries of Saint Freya. The leading Intelligence Valkyrie with aqua-blue hair had her right hand replaced by a mechanical prosthesis.

"Ha... Ophelia, you really love to joke. I just don't have any classes today, so I came to the church to pray." Laura's expression did not change at all. "How could I betray Saint Freya? We all see how good Principal Theresa is to us, don't we?"

"Don't pretend, Laura. Instead of arguing with us about this, why don't you be honest and hand over the key in your hand." Amelia, who was half of Ophelia's body, stared at Laura and said, "You don't need this thing to come to the church to pray, and you don't need to wear the Valkyrie armor to come to the church's underground database."

“Hey, hey, Amelia, that’s not what you say.” Laura said innocently, with one hand behind her back, “We are all classmates, why are you so aggressive?”

Only a few intelligence-related Valkyries came...

"Laura, the new executor Creed who just took office at Anti-Entropy... is your father, right?" Amelia said in a calm tone, "He came to power with the support of Congress, just like when Cocolia came to power. In order to gain more support and weaken Saint Freya, he must find a way to get Saint Freya's database."

For example, there are research records on Honkai beasts, experimental records on Valkyrie armor, etc.

Laura's expression froze. What was going on? How did the intelligence female valkyries of Saint Freya even dig out this? Wasn't North America out of their business scope?

However, since they have even dug this out, there is really no point in continuing to be stubborn.

"Anyway, doesn't the school principal have any plans to continue cooperating with Anti-Entropy?" Laura said, "Let's part ways amicably. Anti-Entropy has helped the school principal after all. In the end, we can collect some interest. Isn't it a happy ending for everyone?"

"What a bullshit!" Adelina said angrily, "How has Anti-Entropy ever helped us? And they're charging us some interest. Didn't the academy principal go to Haiyuan City to help? If they wanted to pay it back, they should have paid it back long ago!"

Laura smiled and walked forward slowly, saying, "That's not how it works. After all, Anti-Entropy has supported Saint Freya financially and during the Battle of Destiny, right? Besides, they just want some information from the database. They won't do anything else."

"That's not something you can decide. If you want to bring it up, you should bring it up to the principal openly instead of doing this kind of trick here." Ophelia said in a calm tone, as if she still felt that she could have a good talk with Laura. "Laura, no matter who is behind you, we are classmates, aren't we? If you come with us to admit your mistake to the principal now, the principal won't pursue it further, and we can just let it go."

"Ophelia?!" Adelina looked at Ophelia in disbelief. At this time, the other person has become a traitor, why is Ophelia still thinking about negotiating?

Amelia narrowed her eyes slightly. She felt that things should not be that simple. Ophelia was an excellent student among the Valkyries in the Intelligence Department. She once achieved straight A's in intelligence work. Such a naive and somewhat weak statement was inconsistent with Ophelia's past performance.

However, based on observations over the past few days, Ophelia has indeed always been the most conservative among the Valkyries in her attitude towards anti-entropy, just like the principal, who would rather avoid a falling out than do so.

Looking at it this way, it doesn't seem so incomprehensible that she would say this.

However, Amelia's intuition as an agent told her that this was definitely not that simple.

Just as Amelia was about to think about it, her eyes fell on Laura who was gradually approaching. By observing the other's micro-expressions and movements, Amelia reacted quickly.

"It's just over... You are still so gentle, Ophelia. It's really great to be your classmate." Laura said with a smile, and when she was about to approach Ophelia, her hand that had been hidden behind her back suddenly stretched out.

Amelia quickly pushed Ophelia away and kicked the thing in Laura's hand away.

When the sound of metal hitting the ground was heard, everyone could see that it was a bayonet.

Laura carries this thing with her?

"What do you want to do?!" Adelina was the first to react and took out her weapon and pointed it at Laura.

After Amelia kicked away the bayonet in Laura's hand, she did not hesitate to distance herself from him. She flexed her wrist and said, "I didn't expect that there are actually capable fighters among you Intelligence Valkyries... But so what? You are not Combat Valkyries. The gap between you and me cannot be made up by quick reaction."

She said, looking at Adelina again: "Just like now, Adelina, do you dare to shoot me? If it were me, I would not hesitate just now and would shoot directly."

"Why do you want to do this?" Ophelia looked a little sad. "Laura, we..."

"Who wants to be your classmate?" Laura said with some disdain. "Do you know what the Congress offered? Do you know what my father will get after becoming an executor? I am the daughter of an anti-entropy executor. I am not the same as you orphans picked up by Theresa."

As she spoke, Amelia rolled away from where she was originally, and the next second, a Titan emerged from the air and punched where she was originally.

"Although I can deal with you all by myself, I don't have that much time to waste here with you." Laura spread her hands and said, "I am the daughter of the Anti-Entropy Executor. It makes sense for me to carry a few Titans with me, right?"

"you……!"

The Intelligence Valkyries that had surrounded Laura were now surrounded by the Titans. Although they were Intelligence Valkyries and had their own Valkyrie armor, they were not the ones directly responsible for the battle after all...

Ok?

A Titan was pierced by the weapon in Amelia's hand.

Laura's eyes also fell on Amelia. Among all the Valkyries present, only Amelia made her feel a little wary from beginning to end. This guy's fighting ability was really beyond her expectations. As for the others, they were no match for the Titans without the Valkyrie armor.

Just as she was thinking this, because Titans are computer-controlled mechas after all, they will prioritize attacking units they judge to be more threatening without specific orders, which means that Amelia crushed another Titan in the blink of an eye.

"Don't worry about her, and target everyone else as well!" Laura ordered.

There are not many Titans here, and the fighting power displayed by Amelia is not weaker than that of ordinary combat Valkyries. Focusing all attention on Amelia will only give others time to go out and report the situation. It is better to let the two most elite Titans on my side deal with Amelia, and let the rest deal with others.

This is what Laura thought and did. To be on the safe side, she even joined the battle and prepared to get rid of Amelia first.

As long as Amelia, the strongest fighter, is dealt with, what can the remaining intelligence Valkyries do?

Amelia also saw Laura's plan. She knew that Laura was the daughter of the Anti-Entropy Executor who was recently promoted. How could she not take measures to deal with the Titans around Laura?

For her, the incident caused by Laura this time was a good opportunity. With a little use, she could push Saint Freya and Anti-Entropy to formally terminate their alliance, and Anti-Entropy, who was in the wrong, would not get any benefits afterwards.

In the dark, Night Owl, who was camouflaged, set up a sniper rifle and first aimed the scope at Laura, but soon moved to other Titans.

Laura cannot be killed here. Although killing Laura can also cause Saint Freya and Anti-Entropy to break up, such a result will be very uncomfortable for Theresa. Amelia also emphasized this to him.

Originally, Night Owl didn't care, but... there was nothing he could do. Theresa's identity was a bit special, and he might have to rely on Theresa for help in the future. It's not easy to find friends in the Shanyiat family.

Thinking that Anna was recently assigned to the World Serpent by Otto, while he himself was sent to Saint Freya to perform a mission and was not allowed to return to the headquarters until the mission was completed, Night Owl couldn't help but sigh secretly.

He had enough reason to suspect that Otto did it on purpose.

But he also knew that his current identity and status were too far away from Anna, and the Shanyiat family was indeed wary of him.

So he had no choice but to find another way. At least he had to show some of his own value, so that he would be qualified to talk to Otto.

He believed that as long as he could create enough value, or as long as he had that value to Otto, then everything was negotiable.

This time, the Herrscher incident of Saint Freya was an opportunity. As long as he could handle everything with Falcon, and Falcon could establish a relationship with Ludwig in addition to Theresa, then he would be able to take the first step.

but……

Night Owl, who had been observing in the dark, also noticed that something was wrong with the Valkyrie named Ophelia. It would be more accurate to say that since he accepted the mission, he had also been investigating possible candidates for the Herrscher, and Ophelia caught his attention among the suspicious candidates.

Others might think that Amelia is too conservative, but based on the existing intelligence, Ophelia's conservatism is more like a disguised catalyst. She has been leading the way for a peaceful solution, but she has also appeared weak and vulnerable, psychologically giving other Valkyries anger.
