"Uncle Walter, let's go and save my brother!" Xilin suggested at this time.
"If they could have rescued me, they would have gone a long time ago." Walter shook his head. "That group of people seemed to have a special way of escaping. I couldn't sense their breath, so I couldn't chase them."
Xilin's eyes dimmed. She now wanted to take Bella to find her brother, but she finally gave up.
Not to mention whether I can find Gu Che without any clues, if I act alone again, it is inevitable that something will go wrong...
This time we have Walter and Siegfried to help, but what about next time?
Xilin suddenly realized that her power was not omnipotent...
The girl took off her arrogance at this moment.
Chapter 24: Xilin's Growth
The girl named Xilin finally stopped being reckless. The experience of losing her brother twice made her grow up at this moment.
From then on, the world of Collapse lost a bloated pufferfish and gained a pufferfish that could think (Fog).
Since her brother said that Uncle Walter could be trusted, Xilin trusted him.
Just follow Uncle Walter and take a long-term view...
The girl secretly made up her mind:
I must, I must find my brother.
"Siegfried, could you please keep an eye on the child that was taken away?"
"Hahaha." Siegfried wanted to agree, but considering his identity as [Destiny], was it a bit... to have a connection with the leader of [Anti-Entropy]?
"Just keep an eye on the child's condition. I don't ask you to give him any special care, okay?" Walter knew that his request was a bit embarrassing. Siegfried was willing to return to help him out of trouble. To be honest, the favor had already been repaid, but he made such a request again. Even Walter felt embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, is this okay?" Walter asked.
"Alas," Siegfried sighed, "I am a kind-hearted person. I will accept it!"
Anyway, the bishop is probably holding a grudge against me, so this doesn't matter.
There seemed to be a sudden light in Xilin's eyes, and her golden eyes blinked at Siegfried, feeling a little moved.
I didn't expect this white-haired bastard to be such a nice guy.
"Thank you, Uncle Siegfried." Xilin thanked Siegfried by addressing him the same way as Walter.
Siegfried was stunned. He really didn't expect that the previously arrogant and domineering Herrscher would actually behave like this.
After all, she is still a child... Siegfried couldn't help but think of his precious daughter Kiana.
If this child hadn't been subjected to the experiment of Destiny and hadn't become a Herrscher, would he have lived a happy life like Kiana...
As he was thinking, he seemed to realize something and suddenly froze, with some dissatisfaction in his tone:
"Call me brother, not uncle."
He doesn't want to be of the same generation as Walter!
Back then, when he was still a teenager, he was severely taught a lesson by Walter...
Forget it, forget it, let’s not mention it, but the name has to be changed back.
"No!" Xilin said firmly.
She only has one brother, and there will only ever be one!
..........................................
Just like that, Siegfried and Walter exchanged contact information, and Celine and Bella followed Walter back to [Anti-Entropy].
Along the way, Xilin was a little uneasy and looked anxious.
Bella tried to comfort her, but Xilin didn't want to pay any attention to her.
Bella was confused. She didn't offend the Queen, right?
"Your Majesty, my brother will be fine." Bella continued to comfort him.
Xilin's face turned even darker.
“Bella, don’t call Gu Che brother.
I am the only one who can call me brother.
Bella panicked: "Then what should I call?"
Xilin was stunned and thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what to let Bella call brother.
Bella calls me Queen, so she should call me brother...
She sighed and said, "Well, I can't think of anything."
Walter smiled: “Are you still worried?”
When Xilin heard Walter’s words, she hesitated and nodded.
"Don't worry. Since Heaven's Mandate has captured Gu Che, he will be useful." Walter said, "I know Otto Apokalis, the bishop of Heaven's Mandate, very well."
"It is impossible for this matter to have no trace of him."
"Since he took Gu Che away, he must be using him to achieve his own goals." Walter continued, "For example, as bait to catch you."
Xilin was silent, and no one knew what she was thinking about.
..............................
【Destiny】Headquarters, on the floating island.
Otto and Fu Hua got into an argument.
Fu Hua could not accept Otto's choice to use the Herrscher's relatives as hostages in order to capture the Herrscher.
Otto disagreed and simply said that this was just part of the plan and kidnapping Gu Che was only a last resort.
The conversation between the two was not pleasant, and this unpleasant conversation ended unpleasantly because Fu Hua left early.
Otto looked at Fu Hua's back and shook his head.
"Red Kite Immortal..."
He took a sip of red wine.
..........................................
The next day, Gu Che's injuries healed quickly after receiving treatment from the white flower in the form of Xukong Wanzang.
It was noon, and the sunlight shone through the window onto Gu Che's face who was still unconscious.
The boy's eyebrows trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, and saw a blond and blue-eyed man.
The man had long blond hair, which was tied into a single ponytail and draped over his left shoulder. He was wearing a purple bishop's robe, and he looked dignified and elegant.
Gu Che had just woken up and was still a little dazed. He stared blankly at the elegant man who was peeling an apple beside him.
"Hehe, are you awake?"
The man also noticed Gu Che, and greeted him with a smile while peeling an apple.
"It took me a lot of effort to cure you. You have to repay me."
Gu Che's pupils shrank suddenly, as if struck by lightning.
If he didn't know the other person's identity at the beginning, he knew it now.
He would recognize this voice even if it turned into ashes.
Isn't this the clown who attacked? Why isn't he dead yet?
No, why didn't I die? I had originally planned to end the simulation.
"It seems you recognized me." Otto finished peeling the apple. Although he was smiling, there was a chilling coldness in his eyes.
To be honest, Otto didn't want to spare Gu Che's life. The last person who could make Otto lose face was already dead.
"Yes, I would recognize you even if you turned into ashes." Gu Che was not willing to be outdone. He looked fierce and fought back in the same way.
"The Second Herrscher is your sister, right?"
Gu Che smiled, with a dangerous look in his eyes: "Don't you know?
To be honest, if it weren't for the lack of conditions, Gu Che really wanted to jump up and give the blond old dog in front of him two big slaps.
"Hehehe." Otto just laughed and didn't want to say anything more. He continued, "I need you to help me lure out the Second Herrscher."
Gu Che was about to sneer when he was interrupted by Otto.
"I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm just offering you my plan."
"Whether you say no or not, it doesn't matter to me."
Gu Che looked at Otto's smile and a bad feeling flashed through his heart.
"After all, in some ways, we are really alike."
Gu Che's face darkened and he rolled his eyes silently.
Anyone who resembles this guy would find it uncomfortable to breathe the same air with him.
"It's all for the sake of the person you love, the person who is most important to you. You try your best to save her. You don't even care about your reputation, money, or even your life for her."
"Isn't it similar? You who are weak but try to protect the Herrscher, and you who want to trade your life with mine even though your body has reached its limit." Otto asked, "Aren't all your actions for your sister?"
“……” Gu Che was speechless, because what Otto said was true.
"But you ultimately misjudged your enemy, and me." Otto seemed to have opened up, "You don't understand Honkai, and you don't understand me."
"Even if you killed me at that time, I would not die. Do you know why?"
“……” Gu Che turned his head away, not wanting to pay attention to him.
"Haha, it doesn't hurt to tell you, because I am Otto Apokalis," Otto said, "and the one fighting with you is just my body."
Gu Che turned his head, and his ink-black pupils stared at Otto's eyes, as if he wanted to explore his inner emotions in those green eyes.
A body, meaning he has more than one body? This may be the trick left by the man named "Otto Apokalis".
This also explains why when Gu Che was pulling him to die together, the other party showed only surprise and no fear at all.
If you can’t die, why are you afraid of death?
Gu Che didn't understand why he told him such information, but he knew it the next moment.
Otto said, "You won't remember it in a while anyway, so it doesn't hurt to tell you this."
Gu Che's pupils searched slightly, and he saw what Otto was holding in his hand, a feather...
It was just a feather, but it made him feel a huge threat.
That kind of threat seems to be even greater than death!
"Remember my name, Gu Che."
"My name is Otto Apokalis, your nearest and dearest."
Gu Che only saw golden feathers flash before his eyes, and then his consciousness became blurred.
Chapter 25: Life is not easy, the little angel sighs
About three days passed.
【Anti-Entropy】Headquarters
Xilin's injuries had healed by now, and she would pester Uncle Walter whenever she had time, asking about the whereabouts of her brother.
Walter was also constantly in contact with the double agent, Patrick, hoping to get some information from the other party, but unfortunately with little success.
Siegfried complained during the call that Theresa had been spending more and more time with Cecilia recently, and they would talk for a long time, which made him have to take care of the baby alone. Walter, a single man, could only silently bless him.
Every time she went to look for Walter, Xilin came with anticipation, and then returned disappointed and very depressed. Of course, she did not make a fuss, thinking that [Anti-Entropy] was deceiving her, and rushed out of [Anti-Entropy] alone to look for him.
After all, under normal circumstances, her IQ is still online. She knows that Gu Che's whereabouts are unknown and she has no idea where to start looking for him. It would be like a headless fly flying around.
Walter was also very considerate of her. When he was free, he would come to chat with Xilin and help her vent her emotions, for fear that she would rush out to find Gu Che if she was unhappy.
Xilin felt that Walter was becoming more and more like an elder these days, almost like raising a daughter.
