I am a Herrscher of Ice, and I am loved by players.

So, again, never empathize with the planner. The planner's purpose is to cheat the players out of their money in order to increase turnover. Everything is premeditated.

However, this time, the content of version 5.0 makes players enjoy it even though they know that there will be other krypton scams in the future.

After all, it’s a game! Just look at the latest versions. If you look too far ahead, you might as well quit the game. No one knows if the planner will do something weird with the next version.

It’s better to draw the benefits and new characters early and experience them early.

..........

Finally, the Hyperion returned to St. Freya Academy, where the dream began. Compared with the past, not much has changed here.

Although Anna could not be considered a qualified school principal and could only be considered a hands-off boss, many of the policies and plans she left for St. Freya's Academy during her tenure were still implemented and executed.

After all, there was a period of time when everything here was directly handled by the Bishop of Heaven's Mandate.

St. Freya Academy is a very sensitive place in the Sky Headquarters. However, this time, when Theresa and the others returned, the Sky Headquarters adopted a tacit attitude.

Returning to this familiar campus, everyone couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions. At the familiar gate of St. Freya's Academy, they looked into the distance, and in a trance they seemed to see their former selves.

However, among those people from the past, two people are now missing - Mei Raiden and Anna.

Everyone was silent, and secretly determined to defeat Honkai.

Ji Zi's eyes flickered. For her, the past six months were just a moment, yet also extremely long. In the nights of Changkong City, she would sit by the campfire and look in the direction of St. Freya Academy.

But now, returning here again, she doesn't feel the same as before. Looking at Kiana and Bronya beside her, Himeko feels as if she is in another world.

Only half a year has passed, but it feels like...it feels like she is about to retire gloriously. It's really sad.

Theresa and the others were able to return here because Otto gave in. As for why Otto gave in, there was no need to explain further, because his plan was about to succeed, and he intended to pass the destiny to Theresa.

In fact, from a leadership perspective, Theresa is not a good choice, but she and Walter do not get along, and for Tianming, Walter is also a heretic.

In short, Otto and Walter just don't get along.

Because St. Freya Academy has always been well managed, Theresa and the others were able to get into the right state quickly after returning.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Jizi. There are not many students in St. Freya Academy now. In this chaotic era, teaching is a waste of manpower and material resources, and it is difficult to achieve results.

Education is a time-consuming process, and the collapse of the worlds in various places has long made the Valkyries of Destiny a little stretched, not to mention the current opposition between the three major organizations.

Of course, Theresa now understands this. After this period of wandering, she has grown a lot and knows what she should do now.

On the terrace of the Valkyrie dormitory, Ji Zi leaned against the railing, holding a bottle of wine in her hand, looking up at the starry sky. In a trance, she seemed to see Anna's figure.

"Teacher Himeko."

A cold but familiar voice sounded beside Ji Zi, but Ji Zi did not show any surprise on her face.

"You came."

Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw that the Herrscher of Lightning, Raiden Mei, had appeared next to Himeko at some point. Her expression was serious, but the look in her eyes was extremely gentle.

"Want a drink?"

Ji Zi smiled and raised the bottle of wine in her hand, and then showed a somewhat awkward smile.

Jiko has always been relatively confident about her student, Mei Raiden. Moreover, when she was in Changkong City, she would hear news about Mei Raiden from time to time.

It is really easier to know about Mei Raiden than about Kiana.

As for Mei Raiden's choice to join the World Snake, she could understand it. She had always seen the bond and feelings between her and Kiana.

"Kevin said that it is impossible for you to survive in the imaginary space, so it is true..."

Mei Raiden spoke.

She had also been running around about Ji Zi's matter, but what she didn't know was that the clue was actually right next to her. If she really asked the raven, perhaps the raven would answer her.

This illustrates a problem: sometimes, trying all kinds of medical treatments when you are desperate may not be completely ineffective.

"I'm sorry, I promised her not to tell her."

Ji Zi shook her head and said with some regret.

In fact, as of now, only Otto and Raven know about Anna saving Himeko. As for the others, well, they can't get in touch with them.

At that time, Otto chose to use Yu Duchen to modify the memories of the three S-level Valkyries of Destiny, so the memories related to Ji Zi became a secret.

It is precisely because few people know about it that the Ruler of the Thousand was able to use it to make a fuss. Unfortunately, all of this was within Anna's expectations, and the final result is as you have seen.

"I understand."

Mei Raiden nodded. She could understand Jizi's thoughts, and Jizi's answer did not mean nothing to her. However, she still had many doubts in her heart, especially the last time she faced the Honkai Will.

However, I don’t think Teacher Ji Zi can answer this kind of question, so I can only ask Kevin.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jizi, for some reason, I can't..."

"Mei, don't say that. In my opinion, you are the student I trust the most among all my students. There must be a reason for your choice. Besides, World Snake is not a bad choice. I have also spent some time in World Snake in the past six months."

"Eh?"

This time, Raiden Mei was a little confused.

She could never have imagined that in the past, Teacher Ji Zi had actually stayed in the World Snake. If this was the case, then her previous guess might be broken. It seemed that the World Snake was really not simple.

When Jizi saw Mei Raiden's expression, she knew that she must have misunderstood, but she didn't want to correct anything.

Anna's request to her was to confuse everyone as much as possible so as to hide her existence, which would make it easier for Anna to plan behind the scenes. And now, Mei Raiden's reaction happened to be in line with expectations.

only........

After all, a fire wrapped in paper cannot be hidden.

Ji Zi said silently in her heart. Of course, she also knew that what Anna did was not playing with fire. She also had her own difficulties. However, in Ji Zi's view, blindly concealing the truth might not be the right choice.

However, if it was Kiana or Mei Raiden, she could still persuade them, but as for Anna, Himeko really had no way to deal with it.

She has always been the one being persuaded, and she doesn't know how she can convince Anna. However, in her opinion, Anna's approach is very sharp and unnecessary.

Of course, this was just Ji Zi's idea. She really couldn't change Anna's mind, and now she didn't know how to contact Anna. All she could do was pray, and then do her best to cooperate with Anna's plan.

Besides, although a bystander can see things more clearly, she couldn't actually see things at Anna's level.

Volume 1: Chapter 154 - Boomerang, friend or foe?

World Serpent.

Mei Raiden did not stay in St. Freya Academy for too long. She did not belong there yet. She still had extremely important things to do and verify.

So, she returned to the World Serpent as quickly as possible and came before the World Serpent Lord.

Kevin sat on the Lord's throne as usual, without saying a word, quietly waiting for her to ask questions.

"How many secrets do you still have that you haven't told this generation of humans?"

"I need an answer."

"Right now."

Faced with the girl's request, the man pondered, thought, and considered, and finally, he made a decision.

"no problem."

"You are qualified now."

"what?"

“The qualification to seek answers.”

As Kevin finished his words, his finger pointed in a direction. A dark corridor snaked out from a corner of the sacrificial site.

Mei Raiden took a deep breath and finally walked down.

Her figure quickly disappeared into the corridor, and the last sound of her footsteps also completely disappeared.

In the huge sacrificial field, only the man on the throne was in deep thought and silence.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance. It was the sound of boots stepping on stone slabs, and it came closer and closer, which attracted the man's attention.

Kevin raised his head and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

In the shadows, a figure covered in a cloak walked over. Her aura was calm and deep, and even Kevin could not see through her depth, which made Kevin's face show seriousness.

Then, more footsteps were heard from behind her. They were also figures covered in cloaks, but the aura was more familiar. It was the Gray Snake.

When they were about ten meters away from Kevin, the leading figure stopped, and the gray snakes did the same. They also stopped at a distance, and then knelt on the ground like devout believers, worshiping the leading figure.

The leading figure stretched out a fair jade hand from under his cloak and lifted up his cloak, revealing his long chestnut hair with white highlights and the half mask with gardenias.

Then, she took off the mask on her face, revealing a beautiful face. Her eyes were light pink and her pupils were star eye shadow, which showed that she was different.

With a playful smile on her face, she looked at the human hero on the throne, and then used the same frivolous tone.

"Friend or foe, choose for yourself!"

"It's you."

There was a hint of realization in Kevin's voice. Obviously, he had recognized the other person's identity. He was the mysterious man Bai Zhi who had been very active recently. At the same time, he was also the Queen of Wind, the Herrscher of Winter, Anna Shaniyat, whom he had once invited and recruited.

"It's me, so have you made your decision?"

"........."

The field suddenly fell into silence. But after a moment, the man on the throne stood up, the Jiemie Great Sword appeared in his hand, and then he slowly walked down from the throne.

"I don't know why the Gray Snake recognized you, but now that you are in this position, you must prove your qualifications first."

Anna shrugged.

"I have no interest in your position."

"As for the proof..."

There was a hint of pride in Anna's eyes.

"Why don't you prove to me whether you are qualified to sit there?"

"You know, provocation doesn't work on me."

Kevin stared at Anna and said slowly. He couldn't see through the girl in front of him. She seemed to be covered by a layer of mist. However, he knew that she was a Herrscher, an extremely powerful Herrscher. He had known this for a long time.

He also knew that this was someone who was qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

However, he felt that such an existence should understand the current situation better and should stand on his side. He did not want to fight a meaningless battle.

"They say heroes who save the world are taciturn and speak little, but why are you so slow now?"

Anna said a little impatiently.

If she could compromise with Kevin through language, there would be no need for her to come here with such fanfare. But Kevin, this idiot, doesn't understand it?

"Then... come on!"

The next moment, Kevin's eyes gleamed with a gleam of light, and then he rushed towards Anna. In just a moment, he was beside Anna.

However, he was not holding the Jiemie sword in his hand. Instead, the Jiemie sword was stuck in the ground. It was obvious that this was a test.

Kevin punched out with endless coldness.

In response, Anna did not take any direct action, but just snorted coldly.

An imaginary door appeared where Kevin's fist had to pass, and at the same time, another door appeared in front of Kevin's face.

Of course, even if it was a test, Kevin was not jealous. Seeing the imaginary door suddenly appearing, he immediately released his strength and withdrew his hand, then slightly distanced himself.

This time, there was a bit more surprise in his eyes when he looked at Anna.

"Control power?"

"uh-huh."

Anna said leisurely, and would not answer directly.

"Forget about the meaningless temptation. Otherwise, you will lose face as a savior warrior."

As she spoke, Anna's eyes flickered, and electromagnetic cannons appeared out of thin air in the air. They were called electromagnetic cannons, but in essence they were a weakened version of the Seven Thunders of Purification.

I saw electromagnetic beams shooting towards Kevin, densely linked together, which could be called an all-round attack.

At this moment, Kevin had returned to the original place. He pulled up the Jiemie on the ground and swung it with his hand, destroying the electromagnetic beams and those electromagnetic cannons.

Of course, Anna had expected this situation. She raised her hand again, and this time a smaller version of the Moonlight Throne appeared.

It’s just that the number of artillery positions is much smaller. Of course, the most fundamental reason is not that she can’t do it, but that she doesn’t want to destroy this place.

With the power of a Herrscher, it is not difficult to destroy the World Serpent Headquarters, even with Kevin. Therefore, she is still focusing on versatility and skills.
