Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

"Let's discuss it. Do me a favor and I'll put in a good word for you to Kevin."

Thus, Lin Wei felt that his two guns were filled with energy, as if they were eager to prove themselves.

Siegfried was stunned.

"Ying, help me restrain him."

"...You better be careful. Without the help of the stigmata, you won't last long."

Yae Sakura appeared in front of Siegfried, drew out the magic sword with one hand and put it against his neck, but her eyes were staring at Lin Wei worriedly. She guessed what he was going to do.

Because with his appearance, the chains that originally bound Siegfried had disappeared invisibly, and instead, the clothes on Lin Wei changed, like a strangely shaped black battle suit, occasionally dotted with gray and white.

"Projection Blank Key"!

Lin Wei combined the two guns in his hands, and the greatsword extended its sharp blade in the flames. The dancing flames made the room suddenly hot.

The two guns merged into one, and the Key of God became complete again. The Flame Law Core contained in it was connected with the battle suit on Lin Wei's body, and it gradually became the same red color as the flames!

The Blank Key uses the user's body as a carrier, borrows the power of the Herrscher's Core, and temporarily reaches the Herrscher's realm.

"Siegfried, do you think Otto can do this next thing?"

"Heavenly Fire, come out..."

"Oh!"

In just a few seconds, Lin Wei's body and the projected fake Blank Key were both pushed to their limits. Pandora took the initiative to appear, and fiercely placed the black box on the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire, knocking it out of Lin Wei's hand. Yaezakura quickly reached out to catch it and quickly disassembled it into dual-gun form.

At the same time, Lin Wei's battle suit also shattered and disappeared.

After doing all this, Pandora flew back to Lin Wei angrily and merged with him again.

Lin Wei gave a bitter smile. He had indeed gone a little too far this time. His mouth was now filled with a strong taste of rust.

In those few seconds, my body felt like it was about to burn, and the simulated blank key was unable to smoothly carry the power of the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire.

If Pandora hadn't cut it off forcibly, I would have had to lie down for at least a few days.

"Oh!"

Siegfried, who was no longer restrained, had just climbed up with the support of one arm when Yaezakura, who had freed her hands, knocked him to the ground with a heavy blow. Then, without even looking at him, she returned to Lin Wei's body. The holy mark on her back glowed slightly, relieving his pain.

"who are you?"

Siegfried asked in a muffled voice.

After Lin Wei's actions, he finally saw clearly that the guy in front of him was a mortal with flesh and blood, not a humanoid made of soul steel.

Did he do something stupid? He wondered belatedly.

"Damn it, I want you to pay for the medical expenses!"

Lin Wei felt a little indignant, and the feeling of burning inside was really painful.

"I'll have to make you buy me a new house!"

At this moment, he selectively ignored a fact——

The house he was standing on at the moment was sold by him a year ago.

Chapter 24: Be a little selfish

A residential building somewhere in Singapore, Southeast Asia.

"You've played a lot of tricks on us, and now all you have to do is let you stay here and play house?"

Tesla, who broke into the room, pointed at the computer screen behind Lin Wei and said angrily,

"You're still playing games here?"

Lin Wei threw the handle onto the table without any hesitation, stepped on the ground, and turned her chair towards the uninvited red-haired doctor. She did not answer directly, but pointed at the obviously sunken door behind her.

"This one again... What? Are you planning to change another one for me?"

Lin Wei said sarcastically,

"It seems that you have ample funds for Anti-Entropy and can afford such waste."

Lin Wei never swallows his anger unless he needs help from others.

"Lin Wei, don't push your luck!"

Tesla didn't get angry this time, but just said sarcastically in her unique voice that always sounded like she was running out of patience.

"Don't think we don't know. That house in Changkong City is no longer in your name!"

If possible, she would like to use the iron fist that broke open the door to hit the hateful face opposite.

Don't do this again and again. Don't become addicted to blackmail!

"Really? But I'm sick because of you."

Lin Wei spread his hands and ended the topic.

"Just tell me what's going on. Your attitude doesn't sound like you're visiting a patient."

This guy has a rosy complexion and looks energetic. He's telling me he's a patient?

Go to graves and burn newspapers to fool ghosts!

First, explain the large glass of iced cola next to your computer!

Tesla was so angry that he threw the big bag of paper materials in his hand into Lin Wei's arms.

"All the information you need is ready. Identity information, resume, and various certificates are all in there. Take your time to look through it."

For Anti-Entropy, obtaining such a set of identity documents is not a complicated matter, and the process can be completed in just three to five days.

A few days ago, she received another call from Siegfried while waiting eagerly at the American base. However, she was shocked to see Lin Wei's face when she answered the call.

"Why are you here? Where's Siegfried?"

Damn it, is this really the final plan? Tesla thought with some reluctance, knowing what it usually means when the communicator falls into someone else's hands. Tesla knew it very well.

"You guys chat among yourselves."

Lin Wei curled his lips and threw the communicator back to Siegfried. He was in pain all over at the moment and had no interest in arguing with Tesla.

Siegfried silently took it and awkwardly explained the situation to Tesla on the other side of the communicator.

In fact, there was nothing wrong with Lin Wei's body. After all, the Skyfire was not completely unsheathed, and Pandora and the projected Blank Key helped him share a lot of pressure. A mere two or three seconds was not enough to cause him any serious damage.

Back then, Dr. Mei was able to wear the Blank Key and hold the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire in his hand to kill everyone; for me, Lin Wei, it is no problem to show off a little with the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire.

"Tsk, it's still too hasty."

Lin Wei sat aside, holding his chest. The moment he drew his sword, he felt a real pain that burned inside him.

"Pandora is still the best, no side effects, and it's also obedient..."

Lin Wei glared at the twin guns that Siegfried hung on his waist with a grin, and complained silently in his heart.

Siegfried, on the other side, reported the situation to Tesla, but was scolded by the other party and did not dare to talk back. After all, he was in the wrong, so he could only smile awkwardly and endure the other party's anger.

Tesla was so angry after cursing that he asked Siegfried to give the communicator to Lin Wei - this guy was too unreliable, it seemed he had to do it himself!

Tesla thought angrily.

After a few words, she got so angry that she grabbed Siegfried and started scolding him.

Lin Wei asked for compensation as soon as he opened his mouth, including the house and medical expenses. Who can bear this?

Isn’t it a case of porcelain?

You are blackmailing me, right?

But there is no way out. The evidence is overwhelming and the culprit is caught red-handed. Even though Tesla knows that the other party is blackmailing it, it can only grit its teeth and admit it.

I can't afford to lose face but not the battle. I can't afford to lose this person!

Thus, in this somewhat comical atmosphere, the first round of communication between Lin Wei and Anti-Entropy was officially completed, and the two sides formally reached a basic intention of cooperation.

Then, Lin Wei went straight to Singapore, bought a property, and lived a secluded life as a homebody—paying the full price against entropy.

……

Looking at Lin Wei who was carefully reading her "life experience", Tesla opened and closed his mouth again and again. After a fierce ideological struggle, he finally asked in a muffled voice,

"I say, are you really okay?"

At first, Siegfried wanted to invite Lin Wei to go back to the North American base with him for recuperation, but Tesla and Lin Wei refused at the same time.

Tesla is worried about inviting a wolf into the house, after all, that is the key to erosion.

Lin Wei also subconsciously refused, which she saw as a display of sincerity from the other party, and this also slightly changed her impression of Lin Wei.

It used to be hateful, but now it has improved slightly to the level of “hateful”.

"Oh, it's okay. I'm much better now. Thank you for your concern."

Lin Wei looked up at her, and to prove that he was not lying, he picked up the iced cola beside him and took a big sip as proof.

"..."

This guy!

Tesla felt his fists clenched. Didn’t you just say you were a “patient”?

"By the way, Siegfried won't run away, will he?"

Lin Wei asked casually while lowering his head to continue reading the information.

"What do you mean?"

Tesla felt that Lin Wei was changing the subject.

Lin Wei smiled and said,

"Nothing special. The unleashing of the Skyfire makes quite a noise. Tell him not to wander around for a while, especially near the Far East. Be careful not to be discovered by the people of the Heavenly Fate."

"Isn't that all thanks to you?"

Tesla felt angry just thinking about it - it was this guy in front of him who activated the power of the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire, and now he was still here making sarcastic remarks?

In fact, since then, Tesla has basically believed that Lin Wei is not Otto, but more observation is needed.

After all, Lin Wei has too many secrets.

For example, who is the fox-eared girl that Siegfried mentioned who suddenly appeared and disappeared?

There is no one who meets the characteristics in the list of Valkyries of Destiny. It is too mysterious.

But she had never seen it, and Lin Wei had never mentioned it, so she didn't ask.

Tesla understood this as Lin Wei's defense against anti-entropy.

Putting herself in Lin Wei's shoes, this hidden wariness made her feel that Lin Wei was much more trustworthy.

"Thanks to me? Siegfried was ready to do it himself, I just responded a little bit."

Lin Wei threw the pot back indifferently.

"Besides, it wouldn't hurt to let him stay at your Anti-Entropy base and recuperate for a while, right? It's better than him wandering around outside with his tattered body all day. In my opinion, this behavior is meaningless except for wasting precious treatment time."

Lin Wei couldn't understand it at all. First, you couldn't rush into St. Freya Academy to rescue the people, and second, you couldn't show up at the critical moment to turn the situation around. Then what were you still wasting time there for?

If I remember correctly, in the original plot, when Kiana transformed into a Herrscher, Siegfried's injuries had already worsened seriously.

"...Heh, you know quite a lot, don't you?"

Tesla folded his arms and looked Lin Wei up and down.

"Didn't you say you were a survivor of the Third Honkai?"

Would ordinary people know these things?

"Haha, have you forgotten? I possess the Key of Corrosion, so it's not difficult for me to obtain some basic information, but that's all."

Lin Wei interrupted.

Tesla curled his lips, but did not intend to ask further questions. After all, it was a cautious cooperation relationship.

"I hope you won't do anything unnecessary."

Tesla warned solemnly.
