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

At this moment, another violent vibration came from under my feet.

Yvette calmed down instantly, feeling that the "disturbance" that had troubled her in the past now sounded like the pleasant and comfortable sound of nature.

"What? Yuno is still at headquarters after all!"

Alvette couldn't help but stretch out her hands, patting her chest constantly and taking deep breaths. She was almost scared to death just now.

"Huh? Who are you talking about?"

However, Jier was a little confused about Alvette's surprise. She turned her head and glanced at "Yuno", thinking, didn't your headquarters approve her coming here?

"Ahahaha! It's okay, it's okay! I just saw it wrong, hehehe... I saw it wrong..."

Yalvette smiled awkwardly. It was so embarrassing...

I forced myself to turn the page, regaining my energy and speaking loudly with bright eyes,

"Let's get on with the mission!"

Chapter 129: Regret

Somewhere in Manila, Philippines.

According to the evacuation plan that was prepared in advance and now urgently implemented, the Jackal changed transportation several times along the way, changed the direction and route several times, and after many twists and turns, after circling almost the entire city of Manila several times, he finally arrived at another stop - another stronghold of the World Serpent.

The World Serpent existed before humans in this era learned to make fire by drilling wood together. Its life runs through the entire history of human civilization, just like the shadow reflected behind humans when they look towards the light, it is always there.

It is precisely because of such an impressive foundation that the Jackal has the capital to be so arrogant.

"Click, click, click..."

The Jackal held her head high, wearing a pair of white high-heeled boots that perfectly matched her personality, and stepped into her new "base" with pride.

But her body was covered in dust and the mask on her face, which resembled the ancient Egyptian god of death, Anubis, which she still refused to take off, engraved her previous embarrassment in every detail in her every move.

"Master, you are back."

The humanoid machine that had been waiting here for a long time naturally did not care about these complicated and useless things. It was just waiting diligently for its master to appear.

"Mission accomplished."

The humanoid machine reported briefly in a voice devoid of emotion.

Then, it really became like a machine, motionless and falling into standby mode.

"Meow!"

Stan, who was lying at the feet of the humanoid robot, was delighted to see his master return safely. He came forward and rubbed the back of the jackal's feet affectionately.

But the jackal kicked him away fiercely, and he vented all his unresolved anger on his own creation, scolding it loudly and impatiently.

"You useless beast, stop bothering me!"

"Meow..."

Stan stood up with some pain, not understanding why his master suddenly treated him like this, but he didn't dare to get any closer. He had to droop his ears and stay away.

The humanoid machine remained quietly on standby, ignoring all this.

"Humanoid E311, you did a great job."

The Jackal, who had kicked Stan away like a punching bag to vent his anger, felt much better. He praised the humanoid robot for arranging everything in an orderly manner. When he lowered his eyes, he saw that a piece of armor on the humanoid robot's arm was missing, revealing a slender arm wrapped in it, which had become a hideous blood scab.

"Humph!"

Seeing this ugly scene, the jackal couldn't help but think of his previous failures and humiliations, and he couldn't help but feel a nameless anger, but he didn't know how to vent it. He looked around for a long time, but still couldn't find anything that could make him vent his anger. Finally, he locked his eyes on the only living creature.

"Useless trash, get out!"

The jackal strode towards Stan and vented his new anger on the poor kitten. He kicked it again and kicked it out the door.

Stan was a little panicked. Am I being abandoned again?

The kitten hurriedly got up and lay on the not-so-thick door, raising its two light grey front paws and scratching the door panel helplessly like an ordinary, poor abandoned kitten. Its sharp claws rubbed against the door panel, making a series of rustling sounds.

Although it was easy for Stan to open the door, he didn't dare to use any force. He was afraid that if he just rushed in, it would further anger his moody master and bring about more terrible consequences. Therefore, he could only make pitiful cries outside the door:

"Meow~Meow..."

Master, I am very useful, please don't abandon me...

"Shut up, it's so annoying!"

The door was roughly opened, and the Jackal looked down at his creation.

She originally wanted to kick it again and kick it farther away; but when she saw the kitten squatting in front of her with its eyes wide open, raising one of its tiny paws, looking pitiful as if it wanted to touch her but didn't dare, she couldn't help but laugh - you are the most powerful weapon I made, those S-class Valkyries of Tianming are no match for you, why do you look so pitiful?

Thinking about how I personally gave an ordinary stray cat such powerful strength, giving it a pair of sharp claws that could tear everything apart.

"Heh... no matter how powerful these claws are, won't they obediently crawl at my feet, obey my commands, and let me control their power and destiny?"

Jackal thought with some complacency, and a huge sense of accomplishment surged in her heart, diluting the embarrassment and humiliation brought to her by Tianming and Lin Wei, and bringing her great psychological satisfaction.

However, it is simply impossible to get the arrogant Dr. Jackal to say a soft word.

She was just about to turn around to get some cat food to feed Stan, but before she turned around, she suddenly remembered that this was no longer the underground base she had been in before. How could there be such a thing?

The jackal leaned down somewhat listlessly, touched the kitten's head somewhat reluctantly, and said in a somewhat stiff tone,

"You stay outside for a while. I have something else to do. I'll call you later if I need anything."

After saying that, he turned around and walked in, leaving Stan outside the door.

If I just let Stan go in with me, wouldn't my outburst just seem like an incompetent act of anger?

She couldn't bring herself to do such an embarrassing thing - even if there were no outsiders here; but her arrogant heart would not allow it.

“Meow…Woo?”

Stan tilted his head and thought for a long time, but he couldn't understand what his master meant.

But at least, it knows that it will not become a stray cat without an owner again.

Stan is not greedy and is very satisfied with the result. Therefore, he did not do anything else that might make his owner unhappy.

"What should I do? If I continue to stay here, will I make the master angry again?"

Stan was in distress and confusion for a while.

"Master, Stan didn't do anything wrong. You shouldn't treat him like this."

Inside the room, seeing the Jackal returning alone, the humanoid robot defended Stan expressionlessly.

When evacuating from the underground base of the university, if Stan had not used its huge claws to hold itself against its chest and run away with itself quickly, and used its huge body to block the huge shock wave behind it and the continuously collapsing earth and rocks above its head, it would have been buried in the darkness underground long ago.

What's more, the order to evacuate was issued by the Jackal himself, and both himself and Stan were just executors.

"Humph, you don't need to worry about this."

The jackal sneered indifferently, then asked with concern,

"How's the data processing going?"

The base can be lost and the stronghold can be abandoned, but the secret research that the World Serpent has been conducting in that university for many years is an important asset of the organization and must not be lost.

The humanoid machine raised its intact arm and pointed at its brain.

"Good. Now give them to me."

Jackal raised her hand to take off the mask she had been wearing. After a slight hesitation, she decided to continue covering the lower half of her face, leaving only her rather intimidating golden eyes exposed. She leaned down slightly and calmly gave the order.

"Verify identity and read data."

The humanoid machine shuddered upon hearing the command, and couldn't help but raise its head slightly to meet the pair of golden eyes. A barely visible red light flashed through the eyepiece, sweeping across the jackal's eyes. It muttered indifferently like a machine,

"Authentication successful...Authorization successful...Command executing...Reading data...Reading data..."

"very good."

The Jackal said this insincerely, and reached out to connect the information cable next to the computer to the neural interface reserved on the back of the humanoid machine. He began to read all the data, and then carefully sorted and checked it repeatedly until he was sure that it was not infected by any dangerous virus. Only then was he satisfied and uploaded it to the huge cloud server of the World Snake.

As a cadre of the World Serpent, personal grudges must always give way to the interests of the organization - the Jackal has always strictly adhered to this creed.

"Huh? What is this?"

During this process, the Jackal discovered another separate piece of data stored in the humanoid machine's data area.

"It's a record of the battles during the Valkyrie invasion."

The humanoid machine, which was connecting to the server, used some of its brain power to explain to the Jackal,

"Among them is the master's second target on this trip. Detailed firsthand information has never been obtained before. Therefore, I classified her battle process as 'experimental records' and preserved it."

"Well, you did a great job, E311!"

This time, the Jackal finally praised sincerely, which was indeed great news!

Ironically, although she had been eyeing Yuno for a long time, she had never obtained any data about her; everything was based on her understanding of the "Fusion Warrior" technology itself - the World Serpent itself was able to iterate this technology to the present day, reducing the side effects to a minimum, and the Jackal's contribution was indelible.

She believed that if she could capture Yuno, a naturally born fusion warrior, this one-of-a-kind copy would definitely bring new breakthroughs to this great technology!

And now, she actually has first-hand combat information. How can she not be excited?

The jackal couldn't wait to check them out.

"Heh, you actually barged in? What an impolite fellow..."

The Jackal was watching the gray-haired girl in the video file, commenting on her with great interest. Suddenly, he saw countless vines all over her body, and frowned.

"Is this... a man-made landslide? No... it doesn't seem like it!"

The Jackal paused the video, watched it again and again, and couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, that's really interesting... This posture is just like grafting a vine onto a human body! It's really ugly!"

The "man-made collapses" recorded in the World Serpent's data are, without exception, a transformation of the human form into the form of the fused Honkai beast - either half-human, half-beast, or complete beast transformation;

There has never been a "Yuno" like the one in the video, whose human form is completely unaffected, and her hair, limbs, and facial features are all completely human; but the way she fights is completely dependent on the branches and vines extending from her body, fighting in an incongruous posture, a battle without any aesthetic appeal.

"Fusion? Why does it look more like 'parasitism' to me?"

The jackal's interest grew, and he muttered to himself excitedly,

"Or perhaps... 'symbiosis'?"

Come to think of it, unlike the super mutation factors used by traditional fusion warriors, this guy is actually merged into a complete Honkai beast, so it will naturally be very different!

"Okay! That's great!"

The thought of obtaining such experimental samples would open up new research ideas for her. Just imagining the broad prospects contained therein made her tremble with excitement.

If we add Lin Wei, tsk...

Whenever he thought of that name and remembered how he had caused him such a great loss, the Jackal couldn't help but feel nauseous. He wanted to press him down on the operating table, cut him open piece by piece, and study him carefully. What kind of magical structure could allow him to grow such a disgusting mouth?

In that case, why not do that?

"Now that things have come to this, don't think I'll just quit without gaining anything!"

The jackal thought viciously, looking like a gambler who wanted to turn the tables.

"Lin Wei, and that Yuno... I won't let any of you go!"

"Master, the longer we stay in this city, the greater the danger we will be in."

The humanoid machine reminded dutifully.

"Humph, shut up, I know that without you reminding me!"

The Jackal sneered and said confidently,

"Let them come! Humph, as long as they step into the trap I carefully prepared, I can catch them all in one fell swoop!"

As she said this, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, as if everything was under her control.

………………

Stan was afraid that if he continued to stay in the base, the jackal would be unhappy, so after hesitating for a while, he walked out of the base directly and started walking around aimlessly.

"Meow..."

It doesn't know where to go or what to do, it just follows its instincts and goes wherever it goes.

None of the stray cats I met on the road dared to approach me. The moment they saw me, their fur stood on end and they fled in a panic.

This made Stan, who had originally wanted to play with them, feel a little bored.
