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

"Yuno, be careful!"

Seeing the unprecedented Honkai beast rushing towards her fiercely, Anna had no time to think. She just subconsciously pushed Yuno away with force, and "fell into the water with a splash," avoiding the monster's swift attack.

"What the hell is this?"

The cat-like beast was too fast. Anna protected her friend, but she had lost the reaction time to dodge. She could only hold on to the only weapon in her hand at the moment - an ordinary wooden paddle, and resolutely and in vainly faced the giant claws that were thicker than her entire body!

"Crack..."

The slender wooden oar was like a toothpick to the monster and was easily broken at the first touch. The terrifying giant claws slammed the slender girl and the poor little boat under her feet with almost no hindrance.

In an instant, flesh was torn apart and blood splattered...

The difference in power was so great that Anna only had time to let out a scream of pain before she fell heavily into the river filled with broken driftwood, and the river water was stained with a deep red blood.

"Roar……"

The monster, having succeeded in its first strike, did not immediately launch another attack. Instead, it fell to the shore on the other side of the river. It used its huge claws covered in blood to dig hard at the sand and rocks on the ground, while making painful cries, as if the blood on it brought it great pain. It had no time to chase the two people who fell into the water.

"Anna!"

When Yuno emerged from the water, she saw the monster jumping to the other side of the river and going crazy. Anna had been seriously injured and fell into the water, her life or death unknown. She was stunned for a moment, as if she could not accept this sudden change.

Then, he stretched out two vines and pulled out the seriously injured and unconscious Anna from the bottom of the water. He weaved them into a stretcher and gently placed her on the river bank away from the cat-shaped Honkai beast. He did not bother to check her injuries and rushed towards the monster like a madman.

The cat-shaped Honkai Beast was startled by this somewhat crazy action, and then became enraged. It planned to vent the pain it suffered physically on this ignorant Valkyrie and complete its mission at the same time.

Then he roared wildly, and once again assumed the posture of a tiger pouncing on its prey, and attacked Yuno.

More than ten hideous vines spread out from Yuno's body, twisting and tangling into a giant spear in front of her. She used it as a weapon and pierced through the blood-stained giant claw of the cat-shaped Honkai Beast as accurately as a hot knife cutting through butter.

"Ow!"

The Honkai Beast let out a painful howl and looked at the pierced claw in disbelief, wondering how its hard body could be pierced so easily?

Before I had time to think about it, the restrictor around my neck started to sound an alarm.

Time is running out! The cat-shaped Honkai Beast thought to itself, raising its other giant claw like a palm and deftly grasping the giant vine spear. With a "puff", it pulled it out. Then, it glared at Yuno fiercely, deeply engraving her appearance into its memory, turned around and leaped into the dense forest, disappearing.

As if it appeared out of thin air.

……

The fight was so fast that from the appearance of the cat-shaped Honkai Beast to its defeat, it took only more than ten seconds. Anna was injured so suddenly that Lin Wei had no time to react.

"Sakura, follow it!"

However, now that this guy has appeared, don't think about leaving so easily!

"I want to see which rat hole its owner is hiding in now!"

Lin Wei urged the black feather in his hand, and the tourists around him who were in chaos due to the appearance of the monster just now fainted instantly. Then Yae Sakura appeared beside him out of thin air, her pair of blue eyes fixed on the dense forest below the mountain, like a hunter staring at his prey.

"then!"

Lin Wei threw the magic sword to Yae Sakura, who took it deftly and hung it around her waist. Then she took the black box he handed over - Pandora, looked at him deeply, and then accepted it solemnly.

She is the holy mark attached to Lin Wei. Without this special divine key, she cannot stay away from Lin Wei.

"What about you?"

Without all his support, Lin Wei would become extremely weak, and Yaezakura was very worried.

"It's okay, go quickly and come back quickly, don't let it find you."

Lin Wei smiled and comforted her, then reached out and took off the mountaineering hat on her head, gently tied it on the top of Yae Sakura's head to cover her overly conspicuous fox ears, and then said,

"It doesn't matter if you get lost, just don't get hurt again."

Yaezakura took a deep breath, nodded heavily, then put the Shikigami mask on her waist on her face and quickly chased after her "prey".

After Yaezakura left, Lin Wei, who had been holding on for a long time, finally couldn't hold on any longer.

"Oh, I was too impulsive..."

Lin Wei smiled bitterly.

The weak feeling of having his "strength" drained away, as well as the fatigue from using the Key of God during this period, all came flooding back, causing Lin Wei to suddenly collapse to the ground.

At this moment, a pair of hands reached out from behind and gently supported Lin Wei who was about to fall to the ground.

"Be careful."

The voice is very nice, it belongs to a girl.

"Thanks……"

Lin Wei thanked him weakly, and insisted on turning his head to see what his "savior" looked like.

Then he widened his eyes in disbelief, and his already pale face became even paler - he was very familiar with this girl, it was Yuno.

I felt my heart skip a beat, my breathing almost stopped, and my scalp went numb!

How come she is here?!

Could it be that……

"Sir, it seems you just saw something you shouldn't have seen, and you were a little frightened..."

As if to confirm Lin Wei's guess, Yuno's face showed a gentle smile full of apology, which seemed extremely inconsistent on her young face.

"Would you mind telling me everything you saw and knew?"

After he finished speaking, a golden feather fell from the void and clearly appeared in Lin Wei's eyes.

Chapter 87: Alerting the Snake

If we go back in time, Lin Wei should still be living a leisurely life in Singapore.

Destiny Headquarters Floating Island.

"Your Majesty Bishop."

Amber walked slowly into Otto's laboratory and respectfully reported her new work to Bishop Otto, who was working hard.

"I have followed your instructions and transferred Miss B-rank Valkyrie Lin Maki to headquarters. I wonder how the Bishop intends to accommodate her?"

"Well, you did great, Amber."

Otto just stared at the data that kept jumping on the wall, while praising in a seemingly nonchalant tone. Although it was just a small matter, he didn't mind giving some verbal rewards to his subordinates.

"Let's put her in the old Klosten headquarters. It's a nice, quiet place where she won't be disturbed by the outside world. After all, we've been on the floating island lately, haha..."

Although it was just a spur-of-the-moment idea - to let Dr. Maki's granddaughter voluntarily climb onto his experimental table, to see whether the disgusting old thing would still be hard-hearted; or would he collapse and suffer?

"It would be a shame if such an innocent child were to be frightened by some accident here, wouldn't it?"

Although it was just a boring idea, it didn't mean that Otto was going to do it perfunctorily. After all, there weren't many Valkyries that he would "personally train".

Although, their ending is usually not good...

While Otto was silently mourning for the respectable girls who had sacrificed their lives, he slowly spoke other irrelevant words in a tone that was neither regretful nor joking.

"Ok."

Amber was never a good person to chat with, and never tried to understand Otto's "humor". She just took every word he said as an instruction and completed it meticulously.

Otto naturally knew this. Or rather, this was what he wanted in the first place—a useful tool who didn't need any thoughts. Therefore, he directly asked about other matters of concern.

"How's the progress of the thing I asked you to do before?"

Countless pieces of information quickly flowed through Amber's eyepiece, and she opened her mouth and began to report one by one.

"Things are going on at Anti-Entropy as usual. There are no obvious anomalies at the moment. I will have the intelligence department continue to increase their efforts."

Otto nodded noncommittally. Anti-Entropy wouldn't cause any major trouble, and would be of great use later on. So, as long as they didn't do anything out of the ordinary, he could still be generous and tolerate any other minor actions.

At worst, we can just settle the accounts together in the future...

"The armor testing of Brilliant Knight Yuepo is progressing smoothly. Although Lord Youlan Dale has been traveling around the world and fighting continuously for months, its performance has remained stable, far exceeding the expectations of the Equipment Department."

"Haha, I'm afraid the main factor should be attributed to Bianca herself?"

Otto said with a smile, and then motioned Amber to continue.

"Lady Rita has just completed her investigation of Italy and France. All leads suspected of being related to the Second God's Key have been eliminated. We are now shifting our focus to the Iberian Peninsula to continue our investigation."

"Tsk..."

Otto was in a bad mood.

"At least the scope of the investigation has been narrowed down a bit. That's also a form of progress, isn't it?"

Without the Second God's Key, his so-called "plan" was simply nonsense. Otto's urgency and impatience to obtain it were almost crazy, but he always appeared calm and composed on the surface.

Signaled Amber to continue reporting the next item.

"Ms. Yuno's side..."

"Skip, next one."

There is no need to report specifically on minor matters that occur at headquarters.

"Yes."

Amber obediently turned the page and continued to report the next item.

"We recently submitted the information submitted by the Snow Lotus team to the local government of Coral Island and the United Nations, which is our investor, and expressed our deep concern about this matter. The head of the UN expressed condolences for the victims, and the Coral Island government welcomed Tianming to join the investigation into the Coral Island incident to prevent such a terrible incident from happening again."

"Wow, so frank? No, the word 'confident' would be more appropriate..."

Otto couldn't help but marvel at the official rhetoric.

"Looks like if it's as expected, the loach should have gotten away. Haha, that's really neat..."

Otto wasn't surprised or upset by this.

Over the years, he had already gained a deep understanding of how good the snake was at hiding, so he naturally wouldn't be disappointed.

"Promise them."

Otto sneered, and then said in a compassionate tone,

"Also, tell them that we, the Destiny, will dispatch an elite Valkyrie force to Coral Island to protect the people living there from the Houkai."

Otto wanted to see, when every "hole" that could be used to hide was under the control of destiny, where could the snake hide?

"Yes."

Amber's report was complete, and the new to-do list had been entered. She bowed slightly and prepared to leave.

"Tsk, there's been very little progress..."

When they were alone in the lab, Otto couldn't help but whisper to himself, full of disappointment.

It has been a long-cherished wish of mine, and 90% of the preparations have been completed. Even K-423 and other necessary actors are already in place.

The arrow was on the string, but he was still missing a key piece of the puzzle, causing him and his entire plan to be temporarily suspended and unable to move forward - the Second God's Key.

It is the foundation for building everything; and the Ruler of the Void will build the most magnificent palace on this foundation. Both are indispensable.

Otherwise, he could have started the plan as early as 2014. Why would he have delayed it until now?

No matter how anxious Otto was, he could only accept the reality helplessly.

Destiny's global dragnet search has always been fruitless; as time goes by, Otto, while continuing to send his capable men to search, is also increasingly inclined to dig out the snake that holds countless secrets and directly force them to tell him the whereabouts of the Key of God.

After all, all he wants is the result; the process is not important.

"Human experiments, human experiments... haha."

Otto pondered for a while and decided to use another card. It was originally just a casual move, but it might be useful now.

After a brief deduction and thinking it was worth a try, Otto called back Amber and asked,

"That child Bianca brought back, what is she doing now?"

Otto was quite impressed by Yuno - as a Valkyrie with destiny, she was actually wary of him, the bishop, when they first met?

Amber briefly operated the system and replied,

"Ms. Yuno is currently at the Nagamitsu Research Institute."

"Oh? Did you go there to see our Director Changguang for another checkup?"

Otto's smile was a little strange.
