A Soft-Hearted Approach!

Rita thought for a moment and figured that if Vil-V didn't know anything about this industry, she would probably be able to fool her.

Incidentally, Wraith, the master of disguise and the master of voice imitation, is also at headquarters. He used to be a double agent for Far East Anti-Entropy, but now that the three parties have merged, he has been brought over.

After all, this person is a genuine special talent, and there's no need for spies right now, so they were called over.

Now, the World Serpent is controlling those small Honkai organizations, Anti-Entropy is managing the middle levels, and Schicksal represents the top level. The current civilization structure is clear and straightforward, directly transforming from a multi-headed monster into a unified situation like that of the Previous Era.

"Cough cough!"

Their lips parted, and Rita coughed twice in a deep male voice.

To be honest, Rita doesn't know what to say right now.

Forget it, the more I say, the more mistakes I'll make. I might as well cough twice discreetly.

Sure enough, as soon as Rita finished coughing, Vil-V stopped in her tracks.

"Tch, why isn't anyone saying anything?"

"Vil-V turned her head and complained, her face flushed."

Pulling weeds? Just a headful of weeds!

If you really dial, it wouldn't be a problem if they chased after you and beat you up!

Well, while outdoor sex is something to complain about, if you know people are watching and you still go in to join in, then you deserve a beating.

Furthermore, since Vil-V clearly didn't want to see the two fleshy worms entwined, she turned away shyly and ran off.

Yes, this time they really ran away.

However, after being teased like this, Liu Bai lost interest.

Although Rita's interest remained high and even increased, seeing Liu Bai like this, she couldn't keep Liu Bai around any longer, even though she knew he was still full of energy.

Oh well, I've already had my fun, and no one's found out yet. I've gotten a great deal.

Thinking of this, Rita quickly wiped her body and then straightened the parts of the Luna Kindred Armor.

At this moment, Rita thought of another question.

How am I going to get back by myself?

Liu Bai tore her everyday clothes and the dark rose petals that could be worn as everyday clothes to shreds, and her body was still covered in Liu Bai's strong scent.

If someone were to run into this, they would be spotted immediately, right?

Of course, there are some people Rita isn't afraid of being discovered, such as her best friend Bianka and her elder Ragna.

But some people just like to be startled—like that silly Li Sushang.

What kind of behavior is it to shout and yell all the time?

What's more, this guy is a curious person. When he wears the Argent Knight: Artemis set outside of combat, he's bound to be questioned by a group of curious or perceptive people, including himself.

Sure enough, the aftermath of each encounter is always a problem.

Rita silently made a mental note—next time she goes out for a paintball game, she should bring spare clothes.

Ah... just a moment.

Rita suddenly remembered someone.

Finding her phone, Rita dialed the number without hesitation.

"Hey, hey, this is Ghost City, Officer Rita. This isn't working hours."

"Stop being sarcastic, do me a favor." Rita, the ghost, didn't mince words. Did she really think she didn't know this bastard was a double agent?

"Um... can I refuse? I'm taking a shower right now."

The ghost's voice was full of languid elements.

Rita listened and realized that there really did sound like rushing water coming from the other side.

"It's just running an errand for me."

Rita remained unmoved; now, besides Bianka, only this guy could help her.

However... even though Bianka is my best friend, I still shouldn't let her know about the outdoor sex. Hmm... although Rita is somewhat interested in dragging Bianka along for a outdoor sex session.

Well, in short, Rita doesn't really want Bianka to know right now; she also wants to maintain her image.

"Okay, okay... can you wait for me for two hours?"

"Ten minutes, or tomorrow the fact that you're a double agent will be on the desks of the bishop and Lady Theresa."

In fact, not many people in Anti-Entropy knew that this scoundrel was a double agent, except for Planck, his ace spy, the Marquise, and Ragna and Reanna, who were highly respected in Schicksal.

"... You were having a secret rendezvous with the Alliance Leader, right? And... it's still quite inconvenient, so you mean the jungler got covered in it? Something like that, right?"

After a brief silence, the ghost's tone changed.

"You know, what if this matter appeared at everyone's doorstep in the form of a letter... and then everyone's door was knocked on again..."

"Haha... what are you talking about?" Rita gave her signature fake laugh. "I'm just a little... a little inconvenienced right now."

"Yes, yes, little Rita, it's not very convenient for me here either." Ghost's tone became more relaxed. "Wait for me for two more hours, and I'll bring it to you then."

"..."

Rita's face darkened.

Little sister?

Okay, logically speaking, that guy is in the same year as Himeko. Although he's younger than Himeko, he's still older than her, so calling him that isn't wrong. But the problem is that Rita is really unhappy about it.

You, a CIA-trained A-rank non-combat Valkyrie, and a double agent, dare to provoke me, the vice-captain of the Unfading Blade, and formerly S-Rank Valkyrie who served as the Bishop's Black Glove?

Are you really not afraid that I'll bring some men and ambush you?

"I'll do it."

Seeing that Rita was clearly speechless after what the other person had said, Liu Bai could only reach out and take the phone from Rita.

Rita and Ghost's relationship is obviously quite good, even bordering on being close friends, but if these two keep chatting, there probably won't be any resolution tonight.

"Hey, is this a ghost?"

"Lord of the Alliance Leader? Here I am! Wraith, an intelligence agent of Anti-Entropy, ready to obey orders at any time!"

"Uh, don't be so nervous. Give me... um, do you know that path from the Valkyrie dorms to the science base?"

"Oh, that secluded path? I know, you and Rita went there? To deliver clothes, right? I understand. Please wait ten minutes! I have a disguise for Lady Rita here."

"..."

After hearing the ghost's reply, Rita felt terrible.

Is that the old fox?

"You really are a heartthrob..." Rita said with a hint of resentment.

She seriously doubted whether this seasoned veteran would be so eager to act on orders from his superior Planck!

"Well, I only have a little bit of a reputation, just a little bit of a reputation."

"Is that so... But I heard that Bishop Otto is currently considering whether the new Unfading Blade's uniform should be a maid outfit or a nun's outfit."

Since she had some free time anyway, Rita decided to start a conversation about something else.

"The new Unfading Blade?"

"Yes, the old stormtroopers and the Unfading Blade have merged, but strictly speaking, the name should be changed to the Holy Sisters Order or the Holy Maids Order based on the uniforms after the merger."

Rita remained expressionless; this really was a religious organization.

Liu Bai's expression was also strange after hearing this.

"Why not keep the original equipment and call it the Holy Knights?"

"You like the knightly style?"

"No, I actually quite like both maids and nuns... but these kinds of things should be done in a more serious way, right?"

The nuns are alright, but the maids seem to be completely unserious.

Liu Bai felt that talking about the Holy Maid Corps or something like that was a bit embarrassing.

Of course, Liu Bai actually thinks that wanting them all is also a good option, but it's quite embarrassing to say it out loud.

After all, judging from the name, once the merger is complete, this Schicksal force of A-rank soldiers will likely become his private army...

One more thing to mention is that although the Unfading Blade is usually referred to as a squad, there are actually several squads, or sub-squads, within the entire Unfading Blade.

For example, the tool character, Alvitr, is the technician of the third squad. In terms of size, the "Squad" of the Unfading Blade is almost as big as five assault squads. The active A-ranks are just ordinary A-ranks. Although there are no fakes, there is no protagonist halo or supporting characters with sudden power-ups.

In gaming terms, it's fair to say that A-rank Valkyrie with the highest Schicksal stats (N, R, and A ranks) in Unfading Blade are in the game. Add in the assault team, and the total number is probably close to two hundred...

However... Liu Bai wasn't surprised at all by Otto's decision...

"So you all agree?"

Who disagrees?

Rita shrugged. This was her and Bianka's dowry. Yes, it was their dowry, not Otto's.

Rita had to admit that although the female archbishop had some mental issues, she was incredibly generous—not only to her and Bianka, but also to the other Valkyrie.

It was even said that as long as you could climb into the bed of the Lord God, there would be huge rewards such as Welwitschia — Reanna was clearly involved.

Why would anyone disagree? To be fair, most Valkyrie are trained from the age of twelve or thirteen until they retire normally in their thirties or are injured and retired in their mid-twenties. They've hardly ever seen any men with them!

Moreover, after retiring, there's a high probability that he won't be able to find a partner, leaving him all alone with his money, and he might even die of illness in his forties. Why would he disagree with these conditions?

Without a doubt, after consulting with a bunch of their predecessors, the girls of Unfading Blade all agreed—can you believe that Lewis is the most successful among these predecessors?

Chapter 490 A Plan of Appeasement!

"Your Valkyrie really have a unique way of thinking..."

After Rita explained, Liu Bai looked somewhat speechless.

Rita could only shrug helplessly. Heaven knows why retired Valkyrie have such a low marriage rate. Now that she has a chance to get a piece of the action, these people still care about whether she has to humble herself.

Okay, if it were an ordinary person, they wouldn't care, but the problem is that Liu Bai's identity is what it is. It's true that Valkyrie are elites, but it depends on who you compare them to.

For Liu Bai, this was a great opportunity to secure a lifetime of happiness with just one bite of food, especially since she was working in Schicksal and surrounded by her own sisters who had risked their lives on the battlefield. Wasn't this better than retiring with an uncertain future?

Compared to that, selling oneself is a big deal? To be honest, the generous salary and benefits of the Valkyrie are, in a sense, a euphemistic way of paying for one's life!

Besides, they knew what kind of person Liu Bai was. He was incredibly virtuous, almost perfect in public morality, and his private morality... well, although his romantic relationships were a bit messy, did private morality even matter for a hero with such maxed-out abilities? Especially since it involved matters of the heart...

Those Valkyrie girls weren't blind; they could see the difference between the actions of the previous male bishop and Liu Bai at a glance, and they also knew how much better the atmosphere of Schicksal had become compared to before.

So, with both personal and public motives in check, the Valkyrie, upon learning they had become the dowry of their captain and vice-captain—or, to put it bluntly, their maids—didn't see anything to object to. They unanimously voted for it, even becoming quite enthusiastic...

Rita didn't find this idea unusual; in fact, it was quite normal. Liu Bai, however, hadn't quite grasped it. After all, he hadn't had much contact with the Unfading Blade, only taking over after the three companies merged. Compared to the Unfading Blade, which he could inquire about, Liu Bai 'Liu Bai understanding of the internal workings of the Unfading Blade was indeed quite limited.

"Their thinking is perfectly normal," Rita smiled, showing no dissatisfaction.

As a member of the team, Rita naturally leaned towards her sisters who had gone through thick and thin with her.

If Rita hadn't known that Liu Bai's side was truly a battle of titans, she would have urged Bianka to "purge the court of corrupt officials."

To be honest, the Unfading Blade could easily handle all the elaborate palaces, concubines, and other women. It's unrealistic to expect every Unfading Blade one of them to be a stunning beauty with a score of 95 or higher, but it's definitely possible for everyone to be at least 80 points.

Unfortunately, it was a battle of titans, and Rita felt that if she hadn't seized the opportunity, she would have been swept aside and treated like a nobody by now...

Looking at Rita's smile, he felt that there was something regretful about Rita in her smile. For some reason, Liu Bai, as the Herrscher of Origin, felt a slight pain in his kidneys.

"Lord Alliance Leader!"

Liu Bai and Rita only waited five or six minutes before they heard... Rita's voice at the intersection?

Looking at the maid rushing towards him, and then at the maid beside him...

Liu Bai seemed to understand something, and Zhen Rita's expression was no longer the calm and leisurely smile she had shown before, but a fake smile that was not a smile in the flesh and carried a hint of murderous intent.

Do you really think I'm too old to lift a sickle?

"Alliance Leader, am I not late?"

The ghost asked considerately, using the exact same tone as Rita.

However, as a responsible subordinate, Ghost did not follow Rita's example and take Liu Bai's hand.
