After seeing Bronya volunteer to go, Seele of course wanted to follow.

[I was present at the last incident, so I know the details better and can definitely help. And... I also want to know the truth of the incident. This is the minimum consolation for the deceased.]

Einstein didn't seem to be too moved by her words.

However, there was no need for her to refuse her offer.

[I understand. I will notify you immediately after receiving the coordinates. Please prepare for the attack.]

Bronya and Seele responded after getting permission.

Then, the camera turned and they arrived near the target location.

[The action team has entered the target street, requesting further instructions.]

After receiving Bronya's request, Dr. Einstein quickly responded.

[The results of the analysis of the soil sample you just collected are out, and they are exactly the same as the soil composition extracted from the apartment performance ticket. ]

【It can now be confirmed that this is a series of connected and premeditated serial crimes. 】

Before giving his final instructions, Dr. Einstein told the two of his findings so far.

[You all go to the target workshop as planned. This workshop has been confirmed to be the source of all Honkai beast sculptures currently circulating on the market.]

[The owner of the workshop is Mira Rimmer, a leading female sculptor who suddenly disappeared a month ago and has not been heard from since.]

[The situation in the workshop is still unclear. We cannot rule out the possibility of an armed counterattack. Please be prepared and proceed with caution.]

Before the operation began, Dr. Einstein gave the two a final reminder to be careful.

【clear! 】

Seele agreed immediately, but turned around and smiled at Bronya.

[It's a dangerous mission, but I'm a little happy to be able to fight side by side with Sister Bronya like this. ]

Although this mission was indeed urgent, and she really wanted to contribute.

But it is impossible to say that I have no selfish motives.

And her words revealed a sense of attachment...

It's a pity that Bronya seemed to have misunderstood something.

[Well, Bronya also wants to see Seele's recent growth. ]

[Although I’m not happy in that sense... but Seele also wants to see Bronya fight up close. ]

During the conversation, Bronya mentioned Kiana's evaluation of Seele.

【Kiana told me about you last night. She spoke highly of you.】

「Really? It was Kiana who had the hardest time last time, I didn’t do anything……」

Bronya gave a very positive response to Seele's modesty.

[Not only do you fight bravely, but you can also accompany her to relax, which is something only Xier, who is thoughtful and considerate, can do.]

[Kiana always carries too much on her own, she needs company and rest. ]

Seeing that her sister Bronya mentioned Kiana one after another, Seele asked in a somewhat curious manner:

[Is Sister Bronya willing to take on this mission because she is worried about Kiana? 】

[Well, maybe... I have a bad feeling.]

At this time, Bronya also expressed her own opinion.

[Dr. Einstein should have also discovered that this enemy might not be that simple - I don't know why, Bronya has this strange feeling. ]

When Xier heard her say this, she was confused again.

Bronya didn't want to continue talking about this matter, and just told Seele to continue with the mission.

The two parties then arrived at the target workshop, and Bronya gave instructions to Seele before finally opening the door.

[Xi'er, be careful. I'll count to three, two, one, and we'll open the door together.]

【it is good. 】

【Three, two, one——】

As the countdown ended, darkness enveloped the couple.

As the darkness faded, Xier suddenly found herself in a strange and confusing place...

She came to the edge of the railing and looked at the beautiful and strange building from afar, feeling curious.

[Is this the interior of the factory?]

And just after she asked such childish questions, Hei Xi, who had remained silent, also started to complain.

[Don't be silly, there's no way that building can accommodate such a large space. ]

[Is this... a closed space? I can't see the exit within my sight. Tsk, this has become the most troublesome situation.]

While teasing Xier, Hei Xi also did not forget to analyze the situation on the scene.

But in the face of her rational analysis, Xier was concerned about other things.

[Sister... Sister Bronya is missing! ]

[What, are you scared of being alone? Haha, you are still exactly the same as before. Fortunately, I am here with you. ]

Hei Xi said in a good sister tone:

[Hey, Xier, let's switch places. It doesn't feel good here. Let me do it.]

However, in response to her question, Xier still said that she would do it herself.

[It's okay, I'll try to calm down. I have to find my sister... Well, it's not a good idea to just stay here, let's see what's nearby first.]

After hearing Xier say this, Heixi stopped talking.

Xier didn't know whether she was angry or not.

But right now, I don't have that much energy to think about these things...

Xier then clenched her nursery rhyme and ran forward.

But as she walked, Hei Xi's voice resounded in her mind.

"Hey, Xi'er. Did you hear anything?"

"Eh?"

Xier paused in bewilderment, then pricked up her ears and listened carefully...

“…Haha…Hahahaha – drink!!!”

Although the sound was not particularly loud, if you listened carefully, you could hear a woman's wild laughter and the sound of "bang bang bang!" coming from the theater.

Maybe it's an illusion, or maybe it's real.

In short, this sound seems to be getting closer and closer to me?

"Xi'er, believe it! An incredible guy is coming!"

At Hei Xi's reminder, Xier suddenly felt the ground shaking beneath her feet.

“How…what’s going on?!”

She probably didn't stand firmly and fell to the ground with a fart.

At this moment, a crack flashing with red light suddenly spread from a distance.

In just a few breaths, the crackling sound spread to Xier's feet.

"Ah! What on earth happened... Is there some terrible monster..."

Seeing this weird and scary scene, Xier couldn't help but feel scared...

And just as she was trembling slightly, a man who should be familiar yet strange appeared.

He has long white hair, blood-red eyes that exude madness and violence, a cloak that emits golden light, and icy mist formed by the condensation of coldness that surrounds the black armor.

In his hand, he held a huge, burning sword...

"You are...Mr. Beichen?"

When the man floated in front of Xier, she vaguely recognized that this was Beichen whom she met at the Salt Lake Base a few days ago...

But why does he look so... unique at this moment?

"Hmm? Aren't you the girl from before?"

As Beichen spoke, what Xier heard was not a man's voice.

It's a female voice that sounds very similar to Fu Hua, but has a completely different temperament...

After hearing this voice, Xier immediately became alert:

Qianxunэ1二81㈣⒈三⑨

"You are not Mr. Beichen, who are you!"

She clenched the nursery rhyme tightly, ready to fight at any time.

Seeing this, Shibao began to inquire about Beichen's consciousness in his mind.

"Should I return my body to you now, or should I continue to let me come?"

"You do it."

Beichen was connecting to the live broadcast system of the game in his mind, and of course he was not in the mood to regain control of his body and talk to Xier.

And now, he truly realized how comfortable it was to have another self.

If you feel tired, you can simply give up control of your body.

If you encounter special situations, this kind of substitute operation can provide better help.

Just as Shibao said, after she takes control of the body...she can indeed cause Herrscher-level destruction in battle.

So from all aspects, leaving it to her is a hassle-free and worry-free choice.

"Then I'll just explain it to her casually."

After Shibao responded to the owner of the body, he focused his attention on Xier.

"This is a long story, so I'll just make it short."

Shibao stuck the Sunfire Greatsword into the floor, then touched the back of his head and began to explain.

"I am... the Herrscher of Knowledge. Of course, you can call me Fu Hua if you wish."

"The Herr of Knowledge..."

When Xi'er first met Shibao, she was not too surprised. Although her childhood memories were vague, she could still remember that she was a good person.

"This guy accidentally broke into the Domination Theater, and I happened to be possessed by him, so I helped him."

Shibao explained the general situation in a few words, as for a deeper explanation...

Because she and Xier were not familiar with each other yet, she didn't want to say too much, and there was no need to say too much.

"Is that so... Is Mr. Beichen okay?"

"Don't worry, I have allocated some of my strength to protect him."

With Shibao finally saying this, both sides had a basic understanding of each other.

Having said that, it’s time to talk about more important things.

for example...

"Excuse me, do you know how to get out of here?"

"Me? I don't know. I've been smashing this place for so long and I haven't managed to break it down."

Shibao pulled out the Sunfire Greatsword, even though the scorching blade could cut through bricks and stones, leaving behind a burning sensation like lava.

But this kind of damage still can't completely destroy this place.

Of course, wanton destruction is not completely without benefits. At least those chattering puppets are basically broken.

"It took so long..."
