Thanks for the invitation, I am in the state of collapse, brushing attribute upgrade

“Wait a moment, I’ll make contact, and after the two sides have exchanged fire, I’ll take you up.

If we fly up now, we'll easily become a target."

At the same time, the Hyperion, which had arrived outside Changkong City, was urgently activated.

"Jizi, leave the rest of the battle to me. You stay on Hyperion and command."

Dressed in military uniform, his cute face lost some of its usual cuteness and gained a bit of firmness that didn't match his appearance.

"But... you are the branch chief..."

Ji Zi, who was also in military uniform and was about to attack but was stopped outside the door by Theresa, looked at Theresa who was blocking her and said helplessly.

"Just because I'm the branch chief, I have to take the lead."

Theresa put her hands on her hips and said as a matter of course,

"Besides, you know I'm not good at giving orders. This kind of thing is more suitable for you, a top student from Caltech."

"..."

Seeing Theresa, who was taller than her, acting a little unreasonable, Jizi smiled helplessly.

"All right……

The battlefield is now yours, but you must obey my orders as the commander-in-chief."

Knowing that her friend was just worried about her health and was trying to stop her from going to the front line, Ji Zi smiled and gave up the idea of leading the team.

"Do not worry."

Theresa patted her unassuming chest, a bright smile on her face, waved her hand, and turned away.

"Ugh……"

Wuliangta Jizi, the executive deputy director of the Far East Branch, looked at the closed hatch, sighed helplessly, turned back to the command room, and began to coordinate the battle situation.

Soon, teams of Valkyries took off on drones and descended upon the mist-shrouded forest below, their own school principals'/branch heads' instructions still ringing in their ears.

"This battle is different from the familiar Honkai warfare. The combat environment is in an unknown mountainous area. The enemy is a force of Anti-Entropy, skilled in using various targeted technological weapons and tactics. Everyone, please be vigilant and pay attention to your teammates..."

Although Theresa believed in her excellent students and subordinates, she was also aware that they lacked experience in human combat, so she naturally had to give them some instructions.

On a drone in the back, the alone Colorless Huihuo listened to Theresa's constant instructions through the headset, his face as calm as water.

After returning from training at the headquarters, Colorless Brilliance's situation improved slightly, but not much—

In the combat unit where Wu Se Hui Huo was interning, she encountered much less malice, but the alienation beneath the superficial politeness and respect was still clearly felt by Wu Se Hui Huo, who was familiar with this feeling.

Regarding this, Colorless Brilliant Flame was not too upset—

The trip to the headquarters broadened the horizons of some girls and quietly changed some of their ideas.

At least, for the current Mu Se Hui Huo, applying to other branches after graduation is not an escape.

Soon, the Valkyries of the Far East branch engaged in a firefight with Cocolia's troops in the mountains.

Although the personnel that Cocolia left in the Far East were considered elite, they could not make any waves when facing the well-equipped Valkyrie team.

The only exceptions are probably the Titan mechas summoned by Bronya——

Although it is a question whether these Titan mechas can defeat a B-class Valkyrie in a one-on-one situation, when the number reaches a certain level, these Titan troops can cause considerable trouble to the Valkyries.

And since these Titan mechas are equipped with quantum leap technology, their difficulty is even higher.

However, these are the problems that Theresa has to worry about for the time being.

Gwyn, on the other hand, had already boarded the deck of the Hyperion.

"Wow……"

Standing on the deck of the Hyperion, Kiana showed an excited expression and looked curiously at this aerospace battleship that she thought only appeared in movies.

In comparison, the armor on Gwyn was not as attractive to her.

"Alright, Kiana, there'll be plenty of time to visit the Hyperion later. Let's go inside the ship first."

After boarding the deck, Gwyn put down the armor of the two of them, patted Kiana's shoulder gently, and reminded the somewhat excited white-haired ball.

"okay……"

Hearing this, Kiana withdrew her gaze and looked at Gwyn who had removed his armor.

"Hey, Gwen, where's your armor?"

As she spoke, Kiana gestured.

"Of course I put it away."

Gwen shook the watch on his wrist and said with a smile.

"Eh, is it like the armor in those special effects works in the Far East? You only need to carry a summoner with you at all times, and then summon it directly when you need it?"

Kiana was a little surprised when she heard this, and instantly thought of the special effects works she saw in the Far East.

Chapter 229 Ji Zi: I am the commander!

"Well... it's not wrong for you to understand it that way, Kiana. However, this isn't some ancient armor with mysterious powers. It's a high-tech product, the latest technology, and it hasn't been widely adopted yet."

Gwen looked at Kiana, who seemed to be no different from before, nodded slightly, and said with a smile,

"If you enroll here, you might be able to use it when you graduate."

"Oh……"

Hearing this, Kiana just responded calmly without saying anything else.

Meanwhile, Mei, who was also sizing up Hyperion, had a slight movement of her eyes, thinking of something in her mind, but she didn't speak a word.

That night she had decided to trust Gwyn, and Gwyn did not let her down, so although she had doubts in her heart, Mei remained silent.

"Let's go in first."

Seeing this, Gwen was not surprised and took the two of them into the cabin.

After entering the Hyperion, Mei and Kiana, who were nominally ordinary people, were placed in an unused room.

"After a busy night, you must be tired. Take a good rest first. I'll go to the command room to see if I can be of any help."

Gwen said this and prepared to go to the command room.

"Well, go ahead and don't worry, we won't cause you any trouble."

Although she still had some doubts about the next trip to the Far East Branch of the Mandate, out of trust in Gwyn, Mei Raiden did not say much and nodded in response.

"Have a good rest for a while, and when you open your eyes again everything will be over."

Gwen smiled, waved his hand, and turned to leave.

Entering the command room during the guidance, Gwen saw a familiar stranger——

"Nice to meet you, Miss Wuliangta Jizi."

"Ha...it's indeed our first meeting, Gwen."

Hearing this, Ji Zi raised her eyebrows, then smiled and shook hands with Gwen:

"Our previous meetings were all through Theresa's communicator."

Gwen, who often met Theresa during her stay at the headquarters, had also seen her in the communications between Theresa and Jizi, so although it was only their first meeting, the two had already known each other for a long time.

Although Theresa gave the students many instructions before the formal battle, the difficulty of this battle lay only in dealing with those Titan mechas. The focus of command was with Theresa at the front, and Ji Zi, who was in charge of the overall situation, was quite free.

However, despite her leisure time, Ji Zi did not forget her business——

"Gwen, how much have you investigated regarding the artificial destruction mentioned in the intelligence?"

As they chatted, they walked to the corner and Ji Zi lowered her voice and asked Gwen, her face serious, no longer as relaxed and leisurely as before.

The fact that the Far East Branch's support was so timely was not unrelated to the message sent by Gwyn—

Someone wants to create artificial collapse in the Far East in order to create a Herrscher?

Although Ji Zi's first reaction was that this was an April Fool's joke in advance, the person who sent the message was Gwyn, the rising star of destiny who was highly valued by Theresa and even Otto, the Archbishop of Destiny, so she had to take it seriously. She gathered her troops immediately and drove Hyperion to Changkong City.

Now that they have run into the Anti-Entropy Titan Army, it proves that Gwyn was not lying. So the most important thing is not these Titan Army, but the reactors in Changkong City that create artificial collapse.

"They were hiding very secretly. I couldn't find the location of the Houkai reactor, but we encountered one on the way out. At least we can be sure that Cocolia is indeed preparing for artificial Houkai."

When Ji Zi heard the serious matter, Gwen put away his smile and spoke seriously.

"Is it hidden very deeply?"

Hearing this, Ji Zi was slightly disappointed, but not surprised. She gently patted Gwen's shoulder to comfort him.

"Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to us."

After all, Gwyn is not a professional spy. It is already very good that he can investigate a little bit of such confidential information. There is no need to be picky.

As for why Gwyn appeared in Changkong City... Ji Zi knew it was best not to ask about things that had nothing to do with her.

While Gwen and Jizi were discussing how to completely resolve the hidden dangers left by Cocolia, Cocolia in the Far East Base was furious.

"Can anyone tell me why the armed forces of the Far East Branch of the Destiny appeared in Changkong City?"

Cocolia, who had just been confident in recovering Raiden Mei, slammed the conference table in front of her with a loud bang. Her face became as gloomy as water, and her voice was filled with anger that made everyone present's scalp tingle.

In the huge conference room, you could hear a pin drop, and everyone could clearly hear Cocolia's heavy breathing.

"It's better not to let me find out who leaked the news..."

Like a wolf that had been hungry all winter, Kokolia swept across everyone present with a fierce look. She wanted to pick up a machine gun and sweep away all the gluttons here. As she spoke gloomily, everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

At least, today's hurdle is over.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Cocolia, who was preparing to conduct an internal purge today, contacted her most trusted adopted daughter.

"Bronya, what's going on?"

"The situation is unfavorable. The enemy has a high-threat target. One-third of the Titans we've released are no match for the enemy and are expected to be eliminated within ten minutes.

Even if we unleash all the Titans, we don't stand much chance of winning."

Bronya, who was hiding in the rear and not being discovered, saw with her own eyes the little girl who was almost as tall as herself smashing a Titan mecha with a cross, and told the truth.

"Humph!

These damn things!"

Not sure whether to scold the leaker or the Far East branch Valkyrie who was sabotaging her plans, Cocolia pondered for a moment, gritted her teeth and made a decision:

"Bronya, gradually release the remaining Titans and lead the enemy to Warehouse 2 in the K area. There are weapons there that can help you turn the tide."

Cocolia gave the order in a cold voice, with no intention of letting Bronya evacuate first to ensure her safety.

"Yes!"

Bronya seemed to have returned to her youth as a soldier, and she took the order in a calm voice.

"call……"

After cutting off the communication, Cocolia took a deep breath, looked up at the suspicious confidants present, and said harshly:

"Contact the missile unit and pull Ivan out for me. Target - Changkong City!"

"!"

Hearing Cocolia's words, the confidants present were all shocked, and then looked at Cocolia with a gloomy face in doubt.

These confidants knew very well what "Ivan" was. It was a great weapon that could wipe a city off the map if it exploded successfully.

But using this weapon against a cosmopolitan city...

"Lord Cocolia..."

A young man spoke hesitantly, but before he could finish, Cocolia raised her hand and shot him in the arm, causing him to groan and shut his mouth.
