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

Yulandel slowly stood up and asked suddenly.

"Uh... yes."

Yuno glanced at Anna, who was still lying not far from Youlan Dell's feet, hesitated for a moment, and then answered firmly.

After all, she came here for this purpose, and the conflict that just happened was just an episode.

"Yeah, that's good."

Youlan Dale nodded and said in a deep voice,

"In that case, you will stay here, follow Rita's command, and join this support operation. With your strength, if you use it properly, you should be able to bring this battle to a close sooner."

I had a mission to complete and couldn't stay for long, so I had to ask this somewhat impulsive junior to participate in the operation on my behalf.

"……Yes!"

Yuno was a little surprised. She didn't expect that even after what had just happened, the captain was still willing to trust her. She was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously.

"After the mission is over, you can return with the Immortal Blade's ship. Remember, do not act on your own."

Yulan Dell added.

"Yes."

Yuno naturally wouldn't object to this.

"Ah."

Seeing that there was nothing more to add, Youlan Dale nodded, glanced gently at Lin Wei in his arms, and then retracted his gaze. The blue and white light behind him suddenly lit up like wings, pushing the two of them to slowly take off, shining with light, and fly straight towards the distant horizon.

Perhaps because he didn't want Lin Wei in his arms to be hurt by the overly fast airflow, Youlan Dell's flying speed slowed down a lot this time.

On the ground, Rita watched the familiar blue meteor streak across the sky and gradually fade away; she just shook her head slightly and said no more.

………………

"Well……"

Anna slowly woke up and felt her body shaking slightly. She opened her eyes and saw that she was lying on someone's back.

"Ah, it's you, Yuno."

Smelling the unique fragrance that belonged only to one person and resembled plants, Anna's still somewhat drowsy mind quickly came back to her senses, recalling all her previous memories. She leaned on Yuno's shoulder somewhat dejectedly and asked in a low voice,

"Lin Wei was taken away after all, wasn't he?"

"Ah."

Yuno was currently walking towards the campsite along the once again cleared road, carrying her best friend on her back. Hearing this, she nodded and said apologetically,

"I'm sorry, Anna."

She felt like she might have let her good friend down.

"No, I don't blame you, Yuno, thank you."

Anna shook her head, tears streaming down her face. She said with a fragile yet grateful tone,

"I'm already very happy that you can come and help me. Thank you..."

At this moment, Anna felt unprecedented loneliness and confusion, as if she had been abandoned by the whole world; only the shoulder of this good friend could give her a little support and comfort.

Yuno shook her head, saying nothing. She didn't know how to comfort her, afraid of saying the wrong thing, so she simply remained silent and quietly continued walking back. For a moment, only the sound of her footsteps filled the air, making the surroundings seem even quieter.

"Yuno, you'll be back at headquarters later, right?"

After a moment of silence, Anna was the first to break the silence.

"Ah."

Yuno nodded slightly.

"Can you do me a favor?"

"Well, you said."

Yuno naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Lin Wei was taken back to headquarters by Youlan Dell. I'm a little worried about him. But, there's nothing I can do now..."

Anna felt a little sad for a moment, sniffed, suppressed the urge to cry, and begged,

"Yuno, I can only rely on you now... Can you please take care of him for me from now on?"

"Is that the person from before?"

Yuno thought of the young man whom Anna had desperately protected, who made her feel strangely familiar, and nodded solemnly.

"no problem."

"Really? Thanks……"

Seeing Yuno agreed to her request, Anna couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then she remembered something and whispered softly as if sharing a secret with a good friend.

"You know what, Yuno? Lin Wei is a very magical guy. He seems to know everything and can do everything. The longer I get along with him and the more I know, the more curious I become about him..."

"Ah."

Yuno listened quietly.

"You know, he's actually a survivor of Changkong City just like you. Haha, it's really hard to imagine how he could have gotten to where he is today."

Anna, immersed in her inner world, didn't notice Yuno's sudden stop, and continued to speak softly as if she was confessing,

"Did you know? It was only after I met him and talked with him that I found out that he had also taken you out of Qianyu Academy and handed you over to Tianming..."

"Yuno, tell me, this world...why is it so small?"

The more Anna spoke, the clearer her memories became, and the more confused and sad she became. Finally, she couldn't help herself and started crying.

"Yuno, I'm sorry... I shouldn't have let you see me like this..."

"...No, Anna, thank you for telling me this."

Yuno suddenly seemed to understand the origin of the inexplicable sense of familiarity she had felt before, and for a moment she was extremely eager to return to the headquarters and ask him everything in person.

But before that, your only good friends are equally important.

"Get some sleep, Anna."

She thought for a moment, letting the scent she exuded have a subtle calming effect, causing Anna to fall into a deep sleep, and said solemnly,

"I'll take good care of him."

Chapter 212: A Few Things About Saint Freya

Lin Wei was taken away.

This is a very unexpected, yet not so unexpected result.

When Rita appeared in front of Lin Wei, and when the sudden collapse forced Lin Wei to give up his last chance to eliminate his whereabouts, a head-on collision between him and destiny was inevitable, it was only a matter of time.

When the second tsunami came, Lin Wei did not choose to abandon the mess and turn around to run away. Instead, he faced it without hesitation, standing in front of everyone to calm the moment when the flood was enough to destroy everything. It only made this destined future arrive earlier in a way and speed beyond everyone's imagination.

But no matter what, it has happened and no one can stop it.

Whether it is Otto or Lin Wei, they have to face the same problem - without any preparation, they are forced to engage in a "hand-to-hand combat" with the most dangerous enemy, which is almost "king vs. king".

This will surely be a collision like a comet hitting the earth...

But that is ultimately the business of the Mandate headquarters in Europe.

As far as Manila and the Philippines are concerned, Lin Wei's departure has not brought everything here to a standstill; on the contrary, everything here is developing rapidly in a positive direction.

At the beginning of the Honkai outbreak, Lin Wei and Rita forcibly intervened in the situation here, and did everything they could to help Rita connect the scattered Valkyrie forces, helping her establish a not-so-solid line of defense, abruptly curbing the situation that could have deteriorated further, and preserving life and vitality on this land to the greatest extent possible;

Then, when a new round of disasters came, Lin Wei once again stepped forward and blocked the most terrifying round of attacks, so that Rita's hard work would not be destroyed, giving them enough time to adjust their deployment and consolidate their defense line.

Immediately afterwards, although Yulan Dell came in a hurry and left in a hurry just as quickly, the wave of clearing she did before leaving greatly reduced the defensive pressure on Manila, and the overall situation was decided from then on.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of Valkyrie teams, including the Undying Blade team, gathered from all over the world, arrived.

These fresh forces, along with several warships, dozens of transport planes, hundreds of drones and various support equipment that arrived with them, joined the various fronts at Rita's request, and a full-scale counterattack and cleanup began.

The battlefield they witnessed was so horrific, yet victory came so easily; this stark contrast made the Valkyries who came to support them feel extremely unreal and absurd. It was not until they reunited with the surviving Valkyries from the Snow Lotus team that they learned from them the entire process - including the tsunami that made everyone despair, and the miracle that followed, which shocked everyone who witnessed it.

What’s more important is that Rita, an S-class Valkyrie, did not deny it, which made the atmosphere very excited!

Thus, the legendary story of a man named Lin Wei who saved everyone began to spread among these Valkyries...

However, this sudden collapse did not only affect the Philippine Islands.

In fact, not all the Honkai beasts that crawled out from the bottom of the sea would go straight to the Philippines along the Mariana Trench; even though the unfortunate archipelago took on most of the firepower, the small number of Honkai beasts that were diverted away still caused the entire Western Pacific region to be thrown into chaos by this unexpected disaster.

Not to mention Southeast Asia, the Valkyrie teams scattered here immediately gave their full support to the Philippines;

The Oceania branch, following headquarters' orders, dispatched a portion of its forces to support the Philippines, while the remaining Valkyrie teams focused their efforts on clearing out the scattered Honkai beasts along the equator and the South Pacific islands, preventing them from suddenly landing and causing unnecessary damage and loss to the cities and residents within their jurisdiction.

As for the Far East Branch, their task was much simpler - they only had to follow the order from headquarters to "strictly defend their territory."

………………

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Hey! Ha!"

Amidst the torrential rain, a white-haired girl with two thick long braids and holding two guns recklessly rushed into the group of Honkai beasts that had landed on the beach. She fired arrows left and right while shouting and was invincible.

"Huh, I thought it would be so awesome."

Kiana, who had knocked over a Honkai beast with a whip kick, wiped the rain off her face nonchalantly, and shouted with full energy,

"These guys are far inferior to the big guys in Changkong City back then!"

While shouting, he rushed towards the place where the Honkai beasts were more concentrated, with full firepower and extraordinary bravery.

It's just strange that although she was holding two pistols in her hands, she didn't fire very often. The banging sounds were mostly the sounds of fists or legs hitting the Honkai beast.

"boom!"

A burst of fire that illuminated the rain curtain suddenly exploded not far away, and a gray-haired loli with an electric drill head floated through the flames and came to Kiana's side.

Compared to Kiana, who was drenched by the heavy rain, Bronya was as clean and dry as ever, as if there was an invisible barrier to protect her from the ubiquitous rain.

"Stupid Kiana, you're rushing too far forward."

Bronya complained expressionlessly.

"Also, although this isn't the first time I've seen you do this, Bronya still insists that this isn't the correct way to use a firearm."

As a top killer who was proficient in firearms at the time, Bronya once wiped out an entire mercenary group with a small pistol, so she insisted that she had enough say in how to use firearms.

What kind of muscle idiot would leave good bullets unused and instead use the butt of a gun to smash the enemy to death?

Bronya was puzzled by her sister.

"Hmph, none of your business. This is what my father taught me. It's the Kaslana family's unique fighting style!"

Kiana glanced at Bronya proudly with a look of looking at a bumpkin, and then rushed towards the Honkai beast again.

Bronya glanced at her back, took out a pistol from her arms, looked down at it, thought for a moment, and then put it back silently.

"Forget it, let's not undermine that guy's self-confidence."

Bronya thought secretly.

"boom!"

A heavily armored bunny appeared out of nowhere, holding up a large shield to block a sudden attack from a Honkai beast, making a loud crashing sound; then, as if enraged, it opened its huge steel hand, grabbed the Honkai beast's head, and smashed it heavily into the ground, creating a deep pit.

Then, another arm, more like a pure cannon, stretched out, and pointed the ferocious muzzle at the already stunned Honkai beast. The pitch-black muzzle began to slowly gather energy.

"boom!"

"Tsk..."

Kiana saw this execution-like scene from a distance and couldn't help but curl her lips. Is this guy so violent?

"Kiana! Bronya!"

Mei wielded the blade that was surrounded by purple electric light fiercely, reaping the lives of all the Honkai beasts that blocked her way cleanly and neatly. She quickly reunited with the two of them, and then couldn't help but complain,

"You two are really getting too deep! Mr. Himeko will be mad if you're so reckless!"

Bronya heard this and glanced at Kiana silently - you asked her.
