Collapse, it turns out I'm not the only one simulating

I'm going to eat a duck alive in my next turn.

Raiden Mei: (ω)

Chapter 26 Thunder Horse: There is nothing to be afraid of

"Nice to meet you. I'm Rita Rossweisse, the vice-captain of the Undying Blade."

Time passed quickly, or perhaps it was the threat from the Ruler of Erosion that made people unable to sleep or eat.

Less than a few hours after the last simulation ended, the Valkyrie that set out from Changkong City in the Far East Island Country appeared in front of An Lan.

Just like what was seen in the simulation, the girl with short flaxen hair stood slenderly, with her slender hands crossed over her abdomen, and her dignified temperament carried an unconcealable charm.

It has to be said that the S-class Valkyrie of destiny named Rita Rossweisse is worthy of the name of the Herrscher of Astringent.

Even though she was wearing unusually formal clothes and her eyes and expression didn't reveal any seductive light, she still made people want to throw her to the ground.

Fortunately, An Lan is not an ordinary person.

There was no lust in his eyes, only appreciation of beauty.

This was not only because he knew that this was a place to discuss serious matters, but also probably because Raiden Mei was swaying hard on him last night.

Anyway...

"Ms. Rita, I have heard a lot about you."

Witnessed by a humanoid mascot slurping bitter melon juice, the two men clasped hands together, kicking off a friendly conversation.

The girl, who came here as an imperial envoy with an important mission, sat down on the sofa opposite An Lan, and poured An Lan a cup of tea.

The girl asked, "Mr. An Lan, I have learned from Lady Theresa about your action plan against the Herrscher of Corrosion."

"I wonder why you chose this plan? What is the success rate of achieving the goal?"

There was questioning and scrutiny in those wine-red eyes.

The girl's eyes were like two sharp swords, able to see through the man in front of her and know all the secrets in his heart.

However, the boy with short black hair remained calm, and after slowly sipping a cup of tea served by Rita, he said, "If I say that I have a connection with Yaezakura and the Herrscher of Corrosion, would you believe me?"

"..."

A smile appeared on her delicate face, the meaning of which needed no further explanation.

——I don't believe you.

The atmosphere between the two fell into silence after just one conversation.

Rita wanted to know An Lan's basis for daring to act in this way, so as to increase the chances of success for the upcoming action; but due to various concerns, An Lan did not dare and did not want to make her secret public.

For a moment, the topic between the two seemed to have reached a point where it could not be continued any further.

at this time......

"What are you two doing here, flirting with each other?"

A 'majestic' voice sounded, and a short figure in black nun's uniform inserted itself between the two of them, melting the awkward atmosphere like ice and snow.

Theresa looked at the girl who often made her feel a chill on her back, frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "Rita, he is not the prisoner you want to interrogate, but a member of my Far East Branch."

He turned his head again, looked at An Lan, and said, "You too, this is to save the world, what's wrong with that?"

"..."

Magical Girl Teriri is so cute.

An Lan and Rita both saw this thought in each other's eyes.

Now that consensus has been reached, the next topic will be easy to discuss.

All I heard was the man who was destined to be the protagonist next, "There are some things I cannot reveal, but I do know a lot about Herrscher of Corrosion and Yaezakura."

"I am 100% sure that I can make the Herrscher of Corrosion give up his identity and power as a Herrscher."

"..."

Scrutiny, suspicion, weighing...

All kinds of emotions filled Rita's wine-red eyes again.

Faced with such confidence, he claimed that he was 100% sure that he could make the erosion

A Herrscher who has lost his Herrscher power.

Even Rita, the destined S-class Valkyrie, was somewhat doubtful.

but......

He can party with two Herrschers.

The ironclad facts were laid out before the girl.

"..."

Rita, who had seen the incident unfold not long ago and had even been a spectator through a certain girl's broadcast, was a little unsure about An Lan's certainty at the moment.

There was a party with two Herrschers before, and now there is a female Pseudo-Herscher and a Herrscher of Corrosion sleeping in the underground of Changkong City...

If what An Lan said was true, then he could indeed use his own methods to make the Ruler of Corrosion give up his power as a Ruler, and save the civilization of this era from the crisis of being destroyed by the Rulers of the previous civilization.

So......

How to do it?

Let this Herrscher Captor go out and rule the cave?

The delicate face was exceptionally calm, but underneath it there was a scale weighing everything.

finally......

She made her decision.

"Mr. An Lan, Tianming will meet all your needs."

Believe in An Lan, believe in Otto, and believe in the power of emotion...

Rita may not be a qualified decision maker, but she is an excellent executor.

Unable to draw a conclusion based on her own knowledge and experience, even though she was full of doubts, she still chose to carry out the orders of the Archbishop of Destiny.

The tone of using "emotion" to make the Herrscher of Corrosion give up his identity as a Herrscher has been set, and the next step is to make specific arrangements for the battle.

In front of Theresa and An Lan, the Valkyrie who had been planning in Changkong City for a long time began to explain: "After the operation begins, we will make all electronic devices and ordinary residents in Changkong City disappear, and make the Far East Island Country an isolated island on the Internet."

Cut off the internet, power, make electronic devices disappear, and make the original residents...

In short, use all means to prevent the Ruler of Corrosion from escaping from Changkong City.

"After completing these tasks, we will construct a stage in the world of consciousness through the power of the Key of God..."

Rita did not specify the holder of the Key of Consciousness, but only explained the specific arrangements.

If what is expected is correct, after this operation is completed, Fu Hua, who appears in Changkong City as a user of Yudu Dust, will use Yudu Dust to erase Theresa's memory.

Teriri

Finally, the most important thing is to have a safety net.

"Lady Theresa, please bring the Key of Binding to Changkong City and be ready to deploy it at any time, 1 kilometer away from the Herrscher."

1 kilometers?

This distance, which was not suitable for combat, made Theresa a little confused.

She asked, "Why do we need to be so far away? This distance is completely incapable of allowing me to exert the power of Judas."

"..."

The charming girl with short flaxen hair did not answer immediately, but just looked at Theresa with caring eyes.

It was like caring for his own younger generation, and he was just about to reach out and give her a gentle pat on the head.

Beside her, An Lan, who had already anticipated this arrangement, glanced at Theresa, who was completely unaware of the key problem, and began to ask the stupid white-haired old woman: "Theresa, do you know what the Key of God is made of?"

"Soul steel."

She answered as a matter of course and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

An Lan asked again: "What is soul steel?"

Theresa replied: "It is the crystallization of the technology of the previous civilization. It is the only material in the world that can effectively utilize Honkai energy."

"..."

Well, this stupid magical girl Teriri is not in her right mind and hasn’t figured out the nature of soul steel.

Seeing that Theresa still didn't seem to understand the trick, Rita looked at Theresa with more doting eyes in her wine-red eyes, and explained to her on behalf of An Lan: "Lady Theresa, I think you may have forgotten."

"Soul Steel is a programmable material made of nano-scale robots."

A word to awaken the dreamer.

Theresa's chubby face was instantly filled with realization.

Nanorobots = high-precision technological products

God's Key = Electronic Device

Rounded off, approximately equal to...

"The Herrscher of Corrosion can corrode any divine key she touches."

"So you need me to deploy the Judas barrier at a safe enough distance to prevent any accidents."

This is not difficult to understand.

The main material of the Key of God is soul steel, and the basic building block of soul steel is nanorobots.

In other words, the Key of God, which exists in the form of a weapon from a human perspective, is actually a supercomputer with powerful computing power.

This supercomputer draws power from the Herrscher core of a previous civilization through the technology of that civilization, pushing it to its limit and making the power of the Herrscher available to humanity.

That is - the Key of God is composed of a supercomputer and the Herrscher core.

There is no need to say much about the latter. The former is a lamb to be slaughtered in front of the Ruler of Erosion.

Even though the power of the Key of Constraint has a restraining effect on any existence that uses energy to move, if the Herrscher of Corrosion takes action before its ability is activated...

Then ten thousand

It's over.

To sum up, the confrontation between Judah and the Herrscher of Corrosion is like a turn-based competition to see who is faster.

Whoever can grab the first speed will win.

If Judas attacks first, then Judas wins. If the Lawgiver of Corrosion contacts Judas first, then Judas will become the opponent's helper.

After all, the Key of God is not indestructible. In the Battle of New York that led to the emergence of anti-entropy, the Ninth Key of God became the first Key of God to be damaged.

Even if the Key of Constraint, which belongs to the same category of Key of God, is stronger than the Star of Eden, it will not produce a qualitative difference.

"I understand."

The short, white-haired old woman nodded, indicating that she understood everything.

She is the ultimate safety device. If things become impossible, the Key of Constraint must be used to take away the energy of the Ruler of Corrosion so that she cannot harm the world.

The plan had already been drawn up, but due to certain considerations, it was chosen to be announced to the participants at this point in time.

After completing her mission, Rita, who still had an important task to perform, returned to Changkong City and began the preliminary preparations for the implementation of the plan.

Theresa and An Lan, who stayed in the Far East Branch, also began to prepare for the upcoming operation.

The former took bitter melon juice into his own dedicated training room, and the latter...

"An Lan, I have a friend who wants to know if the sequelae of artificial stigmata can be treated."

Classic I have a friend.

An Lan, who had just come out of the dean's office, was stopped by her cook.

There was a bright crimson on her delicate face, and her purple glass eyes were filled with ripples of light like water. Such a charming posture made it impossible to refuse the girl's request.

"Is it Himeko?"

"..."
